Chapter 228: Gu Bingqian's coercion

The corners of Zhu Xu's mouth curled slightly, and he continued: "This is not in a hurry, skip it first." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Next, the commanders of all places impeached Sun Chuanting and others, and after I returned, I would issue an order to reprimand a few people, and then recruit them to collect troops and return to Beijing. There are commanders everywhere, and I will also appease them. ā€

The coastal capital commanders all impeached Sun Chuanting, and Sun Chengzong usurped military power.

Zhu Youzhen saw that Zhu Xu was quite calm, and he did not act recklessly, his heart was relieved, and he bowed slightly and said, "The emperor is sage." ā€

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said: "The next one is that the feudal towns impeach Sun Chengzong for bullying the clan, and I will also send a decree to reprimand him, ordering him to leave Fu and Jian immediately, well, go to the four southwestern provinces, in recent years, the four provinces have been drought, especially the four provinces and Sichuan, let him pacify him on my behalf." ā€

This was even better than Zhu Youzhen expected in his heart, and he hurriedly bowed down again and said, "The emperor is shengming." ā€

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "Next, it's a matter of quelling the chaos." Yuan Keli has now recovered Penghu and is preparing to attack Taiwan and Bay, this can wait. Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Sichang are currently in Yunnan and Nan, and they are preparing to crusade against Annan, so they can wait. Others, Qin Liangyu, Sun Chuanting, Hong Chengchou, Man Gui and others will summon them to collect their troops and return to their stations. ā€

Cao Huachun listened on the side, and when he saw King Xin's surprised look, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

The edict reprimanded Sun Chengzong was just for outsiders to see, the command divisions of all coastal areas have been hollowed out, the emperor's goal has been achieved, and there is no need for him to stay in Yunnan and Nan, and he will go to the four southwestern provinces, naturally to continue to rectify military affairs, and order Qin Liangyu to go back, but also to suppress the possible backlash of the command divisions of the four provinces.

As for the soldiers of the clan who should have taken it, it was nothing more than to show them a look at Zhu Xu's edict to reprimand Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chuanting, Man Gui and others went north, naturally they had to pass through Jiangxi and Henan, on the surface to appease the government and the opposition, but in fact, it was still in Zhu Xu's plan.

It's just that the mountains are high and the waters are long, and at this time, not everyone can say for sure.

Zhu Youzhen was very happy about Zhu Xu's open and honest words tonight, although the matter of the cabinet was unresolved, but he finally removed the big stone in his heart. With a respectful expression, he told Zhu Xu some of his views on handling government affairs these days.

Zhu Xu nodded as he listened. He shook his head secretly in his heart, Zhu Youzhen grew up in the palace since he was a child, and his vision and strategy were worse after all. Most of what he said was the intention of the Donglin Party, plus some of his own ideas, and there was no breakthrough view.

It wasn't until the rooster crowed that Zhu Xu left the cabinet and ordered someone to send Zhu Youzhen and others out of the palace.

Returning to Wenzhao Pavilion, Zhu Xu let out a long breath.

Appeasing Zhu Youzhen is equivalent to temporarily appeasing the Donglin Party, and indirectly appeasing the local governors, governors, political secretaries, and judges, and they can be quiet for a while.

walked to the warm pavilion, pulled the thin quilt over his body, and looked at the roof beams, Zhu Xu was still silently calculating.

King Ping has already gone to Sichuan, plus Sun Chengzong and Qin Liangyu, there should not be much problem with the four southwestern provinces, and next, there are the four inland political divisions.

"Hurry up and ...... again"

In the haze, Zhu Xu whispered.

With this night's conversation, the persecution of the Donglin Party eased, but the attacks on the first assistant Gu Bingqian were endless, and a series of black materials were released.

Wen Zhaoge, Gu Bingqian stood in front of Zhu Xu respectfully, and the old man's face was full of apprehension.

The offensive of the Donglin Party in the past few days has made him all frightened. If it weren't for Zhu Xu's secret maintenance, he was afraid that he would have been ousted from power long ago.

Zhu Xu sat on the chair, flipping through the book, and said lightly, "You say, you want to sue the old man and return to his hometown?" ā€

The so-called words are terrifying, the so-called tip of the pen is like a knife, at this moment it is incisive, the Donglin Party is the best at 'exorcising evil with righteousness', although the power in the court is not as good as before, but it is still not to be underestimated.

The government and the opposition are aligned, and the offensive is like fire, not to mention Gu Bingqian, who has a bad record, even Sun Chengzong, who is guarding his body and heart, can't bear it.

Gu Bingqian raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Xu, bowed, and said cautiously: "Yes, the old minister is too old to bear current affairs, I hope you will return to your roots." ā€

Zhu Xu smiled faintly and said, "Are you old and unbearable, and you want to return home?" ā€

Gu Bingqian's old face couldn't see the expression, and he bowed down and said, "Old minister, you are really sick and can't bear the responsibility." ā€

Zhu Xu's eyes were slightly cold, put down the book, stood up and said, "Give you two choices, either stay in the cabinet or stay in prison, you choose one." ā€

Gu Bingqian's face moved, and he knelt down and cried, "Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty, but he is really old and does not dare to take on a big responsibility, and he still hopes that the emperor's quasi-minister will resign and die in the hometown." ā€

Zhu Xu was annoyed in his heart, this old thing was obviously threatening, and he suppressed his anger and said: "So, if I don't promise you to recommend the candidates of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, I will decide to resign?" ā€

Gu Bingqian knelt on the ground and said: "It is the duty of the minister to do talent for the country, but the minister is now deaf and can no longer serve the emperor, please ask the emperor for permission." ā€

Zhu Xu was furious in his heart, he had temporarily relieved the pressure of the Donglin Party, but this old thing was out of his way at this time, and he was afraid that all Zhu Xu's previous efforts would come to naught, and all his efforts would be useless!

Cao Huachun was terrified when he watched it not far away, this Gu Bingqian was really bold, and he actually dared to blackmail the emperor at this time. If it was the original Apocalypse or Wanli, it would have been possible for him to succeed, but he obviously underestimated the one in front of him!

After a long time, Zhu Xu calmed down and said, "You go, I will think about it for a while." ā€

Gu Bingqian's old face flashed with joy, and he kowtowed: "The old minister retires." ā€

After speaking, he stood up, his face was still sad and old, drooping and decrepit, as if he had stepped into a coffin with one foot, and turned around and slowly left.

Zhu Xu sat on the chair and squinted at his back.

Gu Bingqian walked out of Wenzhao Pavilion, the old color on his face was swept away, and his eyes flashed with excitement.

While walking slowly, he said to himself: "With these two in hand, even if Zhao Nanxing and others enter the cabinet, I am not afraid." However, if I offended the emperor today, it seems that I have to find a way to appease him......"

Gu Bingqian didn't care much about offending the emperor, he knew that Zhu Xu couldn't leave him now, and when Zhu Xu could leave him, he believed that Zhu Xu couldn't let him leave easily!

Zhu Xu sat on the chair, angry in his heart.

An upright official sticks to the old ways, refuses to be flexible, obstructs him everywhere, and oppresses him not to act rashly.

The faint ministers have too many selfish intentions, wantonly manipulate power, and disregard the law of the country, and even the emperor dares to take the opportunity to blackmail.

Zhu Xu didn't think he was a good captain, but it was too difficult for him to find a satisfactory teammate, and now even the obedient one had rebelled.

He sat there and thought silently, not agreeing to Gu Bingqian, once he left office, it was inevitable that Ye Xianggao, Han Huang, Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong and others would enter the cabinet, and the six members of the cabinet, except for Sun Chengzong, who avoided party disputes, were almost all Donglin irons, and King Xin was also a person who supported Donglin.

If this is the case, the cabinet is afraid that it will really get out of control.

Zhu Xu tapped his fingers on the table, thinking about the people inside and outside the government, but he couldn't find a suitable replacement!

After a while, Zhu Xu's eyes were fierce, and he said, "Cao Huachun, go and ask King Xin to come over." ā€

Some plans are ahead of schedule! (To be continued.) )
