Chapter 179: Huguang General Army
Among the civil officials present, there were actually people who agreed with Yang Sichang's entry into the cabinet?
Chongzhen was overjoyed, and he found this person, this person is Liu Yuliang!
"Liu Aiqing, what did you just say that you agreed with Lord Yang to enter the cabinet?" Chongzhen couldn't believe his ears.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Liu Yuliang bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the minister Fan Fucui agrees with Lord Yang to enter the cabinet."
"Your Majesty, the ministers approve of Lord Yang's entry into the cabinet every year."
"Minister Cai Guoyong also agrees with Lord Yang entering the cabinet."
"The minister agrees." Cheng Guoxiang also knelt and bowed, and there were more than a dozen people behind him.
Liu Yuliang is also one of the cabinet members, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Dongge University, but this person is very low-key and generally does not come out, and it is the first time that he has disagreed with Shoufu like today.
Chongzhen looked at Liu Yuliang with appreciative eyes, and nodded with satisfaction, he felt that the change in Liu Yuliang's attitude might be due to Qin Yiming, otherwise how could anyone in the cabinet agree to let Yang Sichang enter the cabinet? You must know that for Yang Sichang to enter the cabinet, someone must be recalled.
Zhang Zhifa's face was pale, what is the situation? Cabinet member Liu Yuliang led his forces to attack him, didn't they all discuss it before, and unanimously opposed Yang Sichang's entry into the cabinet, why did he change his hexagram?
"Villain!" Kong Yunzhen scolded Liu Yuliang in a low voice.
Huang Shijun stood up directly, turned to Liu Yuliang and asked, "Liu Yuliang, what do you mean, what are you doing here, do you want to be a traitorous lackey?" Supporting Yang Sichang's entry into the cabinet is to support peace, do you want to be a traitor? ”
"Hmph, sinister villain, I didn't expect that we were all deceived by your honest appearance, you are the biggest traitor." Kong Yunzhen scolded loudly.
Liu Yuliang didn't refute either, let them scold him like this, he didn't dare to refute, he was playing tricks, the weaker he is now, the more wronged he is, and Chongzhen will give him more benefits when the time comes. Because Chongzhen understands that Liu Yuliang is now starting to stand in line again, these grievances are all suffered for him.
"Your Majesty, impeach Chen Hongxu, the governor of Baoding, in the ninth year of Chongzhen, the Azig army invaded Baoding, and Chen Hongxu, the governor of Baoding, closed his door without a fight, and took the lead in escaping regardless of the people......" Kong Yunzhen reacted quickly and immediately began to impeach.
Many people are very confused, what is this Kong Yunzhen going to do, why did he suddenly turn over old accounts and impeach Chen Hongxu, the governor of Baoding.
Cai Guoyong straightened his waist and hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, although Chen Hongxu is an official recommended by Lord Liu and a student of Lord Liu, this matter has nothing to do with Lord Liu, and in the ninth year of Chongzhen, the local officials have not come out, or Chen Hongxu is not the only one who fled with his family?" ”
Hearing this, Qin Yiming almost understood, this Ming court is really intrigued, and these civil officials around Chongzhen are really ruthless.
Zhang Zhifa, Kong Yunzhen and others are all old people left over from Wen Tiren's time in power, and they are naturally very familiar with Wen Tiren's means of eliminating dissidents.
At that time, after the Emperor Taiji army besieged the Beijing Division, Yuan Chonghuan was imprisoned for more than a month, at that time, Chongzhen in view of Yuan Chonghuan's letter to recruit back Zu Dashou and keep the Jingshi, he had the heart to exonerate and let Yuan Chonghuan go, but Wen Tiren found an opportunity from here, he wanted to condemn Yuan Chonghuan to death, so that Yuan Chonghuan was extremely evil, so the person who recommended Yuan Chonghuan was also a member of the cabinet at that time, Qian Longxi was easily implicated, and the facts at that time were also like this, and later Qian Longxi was really condemned to death by Chongzhen, but Huang Daozhou said bluntly, Qian Yongxi saved his life, but Wen Tiren entered the cabinet because of this.
Today, Kong Yunzhen's methods are the same, and he also wants to engage in this kind of implication.
"Alright, I know what you want, don't take me for a fool." Chongzhen was very angry, and he didn't want to listen to those ministers arguing with me anymore.
Looking at these restless courtiers, Chongzhen remembered the bull-nosed zodiac Zhou again, he wanted to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys, so he said: "Huang Daozhou, if you commit the following crimes, you will be demoted to six levels, you will go to Jiangxi to find a place to stay by yourself, go out!" Chongzhen was so angry that everyone was silent.
Chongzhen is also ruthless, and when he goes to the end, a first-class member is directly derogatory to the seventh grade.
"Yang Sichang was promoted to the head of the military department and a member of the cabinet, Qin Aiqing was promoted to the general soldier of Huguang, and the prime minister of Huguang was a soldier."
"Thank Emperor Longen!" Qin Yiming knelt on the ground and bowed.
In the eyes of the ministers, Chongzhen gave in, at least let Qin Yiming out, and they felt a little better in their hearts.
Qin Yiming could see that this Chongzhen was taking himself as a sacrifice.
"Retreat!"
After returning to the study, Chongzhen was in a very good mood.
"Hahaha, it's been a great day. It's been a long time since I've been so happy. Chongzhen's joy was beyond words, today he saw those cabinet ministers and Huang Daozhou being bullied by Qin Yiming so much that he almost crooked his nose in anger, and he felt happy when he thought about it.
"This Lord Qin really has two brushes, he has a lot of ghost ideas, and he can also speak like a spring, and he almost fainted the adults in the outer court." Wang Chengen said with a smile.
"Haha, this Qin Aiqing is a talent, I will reuse this person in the future, but unfortunately, I can't keep him by my side." Chongzhen lamented.
"Your Majesty, why not, as long as the emperor is willing, a matter of oral edicts, can Lord Qin still resist the decree."
"Because I need a fierce general now, I need a sharp knife even more, and Qin Aiqing may be my sharp knife in the future." Chongzhen said.
"Your Majesty, now that the cabinet has Lord Yang Sichang and Lord Liu Yuliang's support, there should be no major obstacles to the peace that the emperor wants to promote."
Chongzhen thought of negotiating peace, and his mood became depressed again, the conditions of this Manchurian Tatar were too harsh, how could he agree, but fortunately, with the support of cabinet members in the future, he could negotiate peace more blatantly.
"Once the peace negotiation is successful, when I eliminate Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai and the like, I will inevitably recapture my homeland outside the Ming Pass in the future, and rejuvenate my Daming!" Chongzhen was fascinated, longing, and said hard.
"Your Majesty, by that time, the emperor will be comparable to the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty and Song Sect!" Wang Chengen patted his ass.
Chongzhen was a little unhappy, and said unhappily: "Hmph, Tang Sect Song Ancestor? Is it worthy to be compared to me? The change of Xuanwumen, killing his brother and forcing his father, not a king or a minister, not benevolent, unrighteous and unfilial, and not righteous! Song Zu, Zhao Kuangyin is a master, clean up the world, reorganize the mountains and rivers, and establish the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty for hundreds of years, but it's a pity, candlelight axe shadow! ”
Wang Chengen didn't expect that he didn't shoot his ass well, and nodded his head again and again.
Qin Yiming became the general soldier of Huguang, and the news was quickly sent back to De'an Mansion, and at the same time, a messenger of the Kang family also spread the news to the old house of the Kang family in Shanxi. But this news spread in the Beijing division at the earliest, Qin Yiming directly commanded the affairs from the Hindu Left-behind Division, and became the chief soldier, this kind of promotion speed, it can be said that there is no one before and no one after him, this is the benefit of being born as a professional class, but it still makes Qin Yiming feel very surprised, because Chongzhen said before that he was going to promote himself to deputy general, and now he has been promoted by half a level, to say that according to the system of later generations, he is now the commander of the military region, and he can be regarded as a party member, but this is the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the end of the Ming Dynasty, At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were actually a lot of total soldiers, and there was nothing remarkable, the key was to see how many soldiers and horses they had, some of them had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and some of them had one or two thousand soldiers and horses.
"Chief Qin, congratulations!" Hou Fangyu came to the wing room, and he congratulated them.
"Thank you, hehe, Hou Gongzi can come, I, Qin, am very honored." Qin Yiming set up a banquet in the Xicheng restaurant and invited a few friends, and Hou Fangyu is now counted as one.
"Commander Liu has arrived." Qin Yiming stood up to greet him.
"Congratulations to General Qin, Lord Qin should be the youngest General Soldier, if I'm not mistaken." Liu Yichong smiled.
"Yes, it should be." Hou Fangyu thought for a while and said.
"Oh? Am I the youngest general soldier in the Ming Dynasty? I don't know. Qin Yiming was very surprised, he had crossed over, and he had been through ups and downs along the way, and he finally climbed to the position of this chief soldier, and he didn't know that he was still the youngest chief soldier, it was possible to think about it, he passed the martial arts examination to sit in the position of this general soldier, before him, the highest official position awarded after the martial arts examination should be Wang Laipin, but Wang Laipin is only a deputy chief soldier.
"Lord Qin is really a young man, let us be envious!" Liu Yichong said with a smile.
"Don't make fun of the two of you anymore, I Qin don't have any friends in Jingshi, and I only know two people, so I invited the two brothers to drink today."
"Hehe, you should drink freely today, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!"
"Yes, if you don't get drunk, you won't go home."
After three rounds of drinking, Qin Yiming opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Liu, how many of the homeless orphans in Xicheng have been adopted now?" ”
"Hehe, since the last time Lord Qin told me the solution, I immediately reported to my father, my father met the emperor, the emperor heard that it was to solve the matter of the stray child, and immediately agreed, the father has made 4,000 blank deeds, and also issued an order to the Jingshi and Baoding local government, those who are willing to adopt the stray child will be recorded in the official register. Now there are more than 1,000 children in Xicheng, and it is estimated that these children will be adopted in a few months. Lord Qin saved these children, and his merits are immeasurable. Liu Yichong lifted the wine glass, and so did Hou Fangyu.
"Hehe, it's serious, it's all the credit of Mr. Liu." Qin Yiming drank it all.
Hou Fangyu suddenly said with a solemn face: "Chief Qin, I have something to ask for help from General Qin, I don't know if General Qin can make a move?" ”
"What's the matter?" Qin Yiming was quite strange, it was rare to see Hou Fangyu begging for someone in such a low voice.
