The next day, above the court.

Shoufu Zhang Zhifa and Kong Yunzhen and others, at this time they were frightened in their hearts, Fu Guan had been dismissed, and was ruthlessly bombarded back to his hometown by Chongzhen, Zhang Zhifa understood that Emperor Chongzhen deposed himself, I am afraid it would be a matter of time, but there is still one more person in the court today, a person they hate and gnash their teeth.

If it weren't for him, the emperor might not even be able to scrape up the military expenses for the rebellion of thieves such as Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai; If it weren't for him, Zhang Zhifa felt that their main battle faction would definitely be able to win a big victory in today's court, and they could solve the main peace faction led by Liu Yuliang and Yang Sichang in one fell swoop; If it weren't for him, Fu Guan would not have been deposed, and his position as the first assistant would not have been shaky. It's a pity that there is no if, they are now passive everywhere, the ship of the entire Ming Empire, because of this person, has begun to deviate from the course, in their opinion, Qin Yiming is the source of all disasters, and he is a person who is more hated than Wei Zhongxian.

"Your Majesty, since General Qin has been designated by the emperor as the champion of martial arts and awarded the position of General Soldier of Huguang, as a local official, he should take office immediately, and should not stay in Beijing for a long time." Zhang Zhifa said that they have no way to deal with Qin Yiming now, the only way is to blow people away and keep this evil star away from the court, maybe in this way, everything still has a chance.

Qin Yiming didn't want to come to the main hall of the Forbidden City, his original plan was to take Chen Yuanyuan back to De'an Mansion directly, but just yesterday, when he was about to shoot Aobai, the *** commander made Luo Yangxing appear, he stopped Qin Yiming's behavior, and Qin Yiming did the same, because Luo Yangxing conveyed the order of Emperor Chongzhen.

In Chongzhen's view, sniping Ao Bai is a sabotage of peace, although Chongzhen also wants to kill the culprit who disturbed the Ming Dynasty, but from the overall situation, he still restrained himself, after all, he is still ready to continue negotiations with Huang Taiji, if Ao Bai dies in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, maybe the road to peace talks will be blocked.

Qin Yiming's appearance here today is, of course, what Chongzhen meant.

"Qin Aiqing, Lord Chen has been wronged this time, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I have fallen for the traitor's scheme, Aiqing has made a great contribution this time, I am ready to reward it, Aiqing said, how do you want me to reward?"

Qin Yiming suddenly had no idea, he didn't understand why Chongzhen wanted to reward himself, was it because he kept Chen Xinjia? It doesn't make sense.

"Your Majesty, the minister is a martial artist, a rough man, in the De'an Mansion the minister can manage the soldiers, but the De'an Mansion lacks a capable prefect, the minister listens to the words, the Hou Hou is an expert in this area, so the minister pleaded, the emperor can be gracious, and put the Hou Hou Hou in the De'an Mansion."

Waiting? Many people have forgotten this old man who has been in prison for two years, but now everyone hears the name and remembers it again.

Hou Sui, Ming Wanli Bingchen Year Jinshi, awarded the imperial history of Shanxi Province. During the Apocalypse, due to the struggle with the eunuch Wei Zhongxian, the father and son were dismissed. In the first year of Chongzhen, the imperial history of Henan Province was used again. The following year, he was appointed as a servant and a young secretary. Chongzhen served as the right attendant of the military department for three years, supervising Changping. Chongzhen served as the head of the household department for six years. Chongzhen**, because of the jealousy of the cabinet ministers Zhang Zhifa and Wen Tiren, Wen instigated Song Zhipu and others to impeach Hou for misleading the country. Hou was cut from his post and soon imprisoned.

"Your Majesty, Lord Hou is Zuo Liangyu's benefactor, this time to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong and other giants, Zuo Liangyu is also a key person, if Lord Hou can come out, Zuo Liangyu will inevitably work harder, it is better to be a favor and put Lord Hou out to Anlu." Liu Yuliang took the opportunity and tried his best to speak.

Chongzhen was also very hesitant, because he hated Hou Sui, mainly because Hou Sui was the head of the household and couldn't get money and food, which made Chongzhen very old at that time, although he knew that Wen Tiren was looking for a scapegoat at that time, but he still put Hou Sui in prison, because he felt that Hou Sui was incompetent.

Zhang Zhifa saw that someone overturned the case for Hou Sui in front of him, of course he was unhappy, and said: "Your Majesty, Hou Sui embezzled money and food, but being sentenced to prison is already the emperor's kindness and mercy, if it is still released, wouldn't it set up a bad image for the people of the world, this impact will be very bad, please think twice!" ”

Hearing Zhang Zhifa say this, Chongzhen also remembered that when he was imprisoned and waited, this Zhang Zhifa also had merit.

"Since Qin Aiqing intercedes for Lord Hou, then I will let Lord Hou go and let Lord Hou go to Anlu to be a small magistrate." Chongzhen smiled and said to Qin Yiming.

Zhang Zhifa's face was blue and embarrassed, but Chongzhen was smiling, and fools could see that Chongzhen was slapping Zhang Zhifa, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, in the face on the spot, and he was also telling some people that Zhang Zhifa was no longer a saint, and it was a matter of time before he was ousted.

"Thank Emperor Longen!" Qin Yiming**.

Chongzhen smiled and glanced at Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen understood, and said loudly: "The emperor's holy decree, Qin Yiming, the chief soldier of Huguang, is both civil and military, and has great wisdom, and has cracked the Shandong manuscript case that caused a sensation in the government and the opposition in Beijing, so that the traitor did not succeed, and the credit is very great. ”

For outsiders who are not relatives of the emperor, the title was originally fifth-class, the son of the male uncle and the prince, but in the late Ming Dynasty, there were only three kinds of titles, and the second son and the second lord were dismissed.

In the Ming Dynasty, the real ** title to the end of the Ming Dynasty, only Xu Da and the descendants of Confucius in Qufu, Shandong.

Qin Yiming was very surprised by Chongzhen's arrangement, but he was also very happy, and now he has at least mixed up with a title, although this thing is false, it is just a reputation, but it is also precious.

But Liu Yuliang is more concerned about another thing, that is, the Shang Fang Sword, what did the emperor give Qin Yiming Shang Fang Sword for? Emperor Chongzhen gave Sun Chuanting the sword of Shang Fang, let Sun Chuanting build the Qin army in Shaanxi, and now gave Qin Yiming the sword of Shang Fang, is it because he wants Qin Yiming to go to Huguang to build the Chu army? But these two people are not comparable, Sun Chuanting is a civil servant, but Qin Yiming, he is a thorough general!

Yang Sichang, the current secretary of the Ministry of War, although he wanted to oppose it, he didn't say it, because this was what Chongzhen meant, and the first assistant Zhang Zhifa didn't speak, and as a result, there was not a single voice of opposition in the entire court.

After the court meeting, many people said hello to Qin Yiming, in their eyes, Qin Yiming will inevitably be a new star of the Ming Dynasty in the future, and he is a pivotal figure.

Zhang's house.

"My lord, we still have a chance!" He Fengnian saw that everyone's faces were gloomy, so he cheered everyone up.

Zhang Zhifa shook his head, and said weakly: "The current court situation is far beyond what you and I can control, and now we have lost, not only have we lost the emperor's trust in us, but many people in the court will not continue to follow us." It's unknown how long I'll be able to do it. ”

"My lord, we haven't lost yet, we still have hope!" He Fengnian emphasized.

"Lord He, what chance do we have now?" Kong Yunzhen asked.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now the Ming Dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, the emperor today gave the martial champion Qin Yiming a knight and a sword to Shang Fang, nothing more than to show the people of the world that the emperor attaches great importance to military generals, to say that there are now internal and external troubles, this is correct, after all, the war still depends on those martial artists, just like this crackdown on bandits, everyone thinks that Zuo Liangyu is very important, but in fact, there is another person, Chen Hongfan, he is also very important, Chen Hongfan is a person who is attached to us, isn't he Yang Sichang Xiong Wencan? As long as the suppression of bandits is unfavorable this time, we can wantonly ** Xiong Wencan, and then pull Yang Sichang down by the way, and maybe we can turn things around when the time comes. He Fengnian said seriously.

"Chen Hongfan? This person is reliable? Zhang Zhifa asked.

"In addition to Chen Hongfan, there are other people, anyway, we are people in the center of the imperial court, those who are far away in the temple, they want to be promoted, they can't rely on us, whoever goes against us is looking for death, Lord Shoufu, we still have the strength to fight, we haven't lost yet!" He Fengnian said.

The others also nodded one after another, and everyone felt that what He Fengnian said made sense.

"Since this is the case, let the official army lose him twice first, and it must be a fiasco, and put a little pressure on the emperor!" Kong Yunzhen said viciously.

"Yes, let the generals below disobey the yang and yin, and it doesn't hurt to lose a few cities first, we just want to embarrass Xiong Wencan, and when the time comes, when Xiong Wencan's ugliness is revealed, everyone will be together ** Yang Sichang, as long as Yang Sichang falls, Liu Yuliang and other ** thieves will follow!"

In the end, everyone felt that they had found a way to deal with it, and they all swelled up one by one, and just when they were entertaining themselves, Yang Sichang also met Emperor Chongzhen alone.

Yang Sichang generally spoke very tactfully, just like today he wanted to talk about Qin Yiming's problem, but also very tactful, he whispered: "Your Majesty, Jiangnan is my granary of the Ming Dynasty, since the beginning of the Wanli Dynasty, the original granary of Suzhou and Hangzhou has become the base of silk, although it is my Ming tax land, but there is no grain there, the real granary of the Ming Dynasty has become Huguang, and now the Huguang area is the top priority of the country, if Huguang is chaotic again, I am afraid that the grain and grass of the imperial court will have problems." ”

"What does Aiqing mean?"

"Your Majesty, Lord Qin is a military general, and he originally advocated immediate governance, but Weichen was afraid that Lord Qin would go to Huguang and there would be a bloody storm." Yang Sichang said it more thoroughly at this time.

Chongzhen smiled and said, "I know what Aiqing means, but has Aiqing ever thought about which one is more fierce than Qin Yiming or Sun Chuanting?" ”

"Of course, it is General Qin, Lord Sun is a scholar, and it is definitely less than one-tenth of Lord Qin's means." Yang Sichang replied decisively.

"Hahaha, this is quite pertinent, Lord Sun can train 100,000 elites of the Qin army in Shaanxi alone, if I let the general soldiers of Qin let go of the training in Chudi, how many men does Yang Aiqing think this stinky boy can help me pull out?"

"But the emperor, Chu is not as good as Qin, the people of Qin have been fierce for thousands of years, but the people in Jiangnan are relatively weak and gentle, I am afraid that even if it is 100,000 horses at that time, it will be vulnerable, and it may also shake the foundation of the country." Yang Sichang worried.

Chongzhen hesitated slightly, but thinking of Qin Yiming's various actions, he finally said: "Look at it, Qin Aiqing may be able to surprise me, as for Yang Aiqing, what you are worried about, I also know that this Chu land is indeed important, so I also gave Qin Aiqing a secret decree, only allowing him to clean up the tuntian, and he must not interfere with other fields!" ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Yang Sichang complimented, but you are still very worried in your heart, is Qin Yiming a well-behaved person? In his opinion, no!
