Chapter 433: Replenishing the Army and Distributing Troops
The news that Huang Han came to Beijing to face the saint spread somehow, and many Qingliu ministers were looking around, all wanting to see if the stunned Qinglai had come to the early dynasty.
Everyone whispered to each other, all inquiring about the purpose of this son's rash visit to the capital.
Some people thought that Huang Han and Sun Yuanhua had a brother-in-law relationship, and speculated whether Huang Han came to save Sun Yuanhua.
The second assistant Wen Tiren was full of worries, because his habit was to go out early to go to the morning court, who knew that someone was even earlier, and he was visited as soon as he got up.
The evaluation of Wen Tiren in history is a mess, in fact, if you think about who the history of the Ming Dynasty is based on, you should have a name in your heart.
Most of the compilers of the Ming history were Donglin Party members who surrendered, and the records of reversing black and white are unknown.
Wen Tiren, who has fought with the Donglin Party all his life and has overturned too many Donglin Party cadres, and he is the first assistant a few years before the death of the Ming Dynasty, how can he end up well?
Regardless of whether Wen Tiren is a good person or not, in fact, which one is a big official, and who is a big official under one person and above ten thousand people, will be a person with high morals? Can you climb up without being filthy?
First of all, Wen Tiren is a clear stream in the late Ming Dynasty, it is true, Wen Tiren has a hard life for the official and honest hahaha, he is about to catch up with Hai Rui, and he does not form a party, and his family has never given gifts.
The literati were vicious, ignoring Wen Tiren's incorruptibility, and the explanation they gave was that Wen Tiren was too bad, so bad that he did not dare to be corrupt for fear that his political opponents would seize the lever.
Isn't that joyful? Thinking about it the other way, can it be understood in this way, most of Wen Tiren's political enemies are good people and moral gentlemen, they don't need to worry about their political enemies seizing the handle, so they dare to be corrupt, and finally corrupt the Ming Dynasty to the death of the country!
The person who came to visit Wen Mansion early this morning was an acquaintance, he was Huang Han's apprentice, and Ye Zifan, a doctor who had just obtained the rank of Eighth Rank.
A few days ago, Wen Tiren's old wife had an old illness, and many doctors prescribed medicine but there was no improvement, Ye Zifan often came to the door for the purpose of studying pathology, and finally cured the old lady's illness.
Therefore, there was no obstacle for Ye Zifan to ascend to the door of Zaifu's house, and Wen Tiren was also quite polite to this doctor.
Wen Tiren was surprised to see Ye Zifan early in the morning, usually this doctor has never come to the door so early!
Ye Zifan saw that the elder of the pavilion respectfully saluted, and then approached him and said in a low voice: "Elder pavilion, my master asked the subordinate to come and bring a word to leave a life for Sun Yuanhua." ”
Wen Tiren was dizzy, Ye Zifan was already in his thirties, would his master's master become an immortal?
He was puzzled: "Mr. Ye, who is your master?" ”
"Pingliao General Huang Han!"
"Poof!" Wen Tiren had just taken a sip of tea, and when he heard this, he squirted out. He looked at Ye Zifan, who had a serious face, and smiled like a night owl.
"Your young master is so angry that he left Sun Yuanhua alive? Why does the old man have to do this? ”
"From now on, General Pingliao owes the elder a favor, even if the elder is high and powerful, he doesn't need General Pingliao to return the favor, he is young, and he will definitely have the opportunity to take care of the descendants of the elder in the future."
Huang Han instructed Ye Zifan how to speak concisely and to the point, even if the scheming Wen Tiren couldn't help but think to himself, he could not give Huang Han face, but from now on, even if Huang Han was pushed to the opposite side.
Being young is Huang Han's capital, and a strong army in hand is Huang Han's reliance, Wen Tiren has brothers and several sons and grandchildren, does he hope to suffer Huang Han's revenge or hope to be taken care of by Huang Han to benefit his children and grandchildren?
The multiple-choice question is not difficult, Wen Tiren has already decided to give Huang Han face in his heart, he asked: "Why do you want to keep Sun Yuanhua alive?" Shouldn't anyone be responsible for the more than 100,000 people who died in Shandong? ”
Ye Zifan said calmly: "Sun Yuanhua has superb cannon casting and cannon fighting skills, and the 'Red Flag Army' needs heavy artillery to guard Ningyuan against Jiannu. ”
Wen Tiren nodded and twisted his beard and said: "This reason is acceptable, Mr. told General Pingliao, and the old man agreed." But the old man didn't want to sell favors, but knew that Sun Yuanhua was indeed proficient in cannon casting, and leaving his life would be useful to the country. ”
"Thank you, the student is leaving!"
Seeing Ye Zifan walk out of the courtyard in a hurry, Wen Tiren fell into deep thought, that Huang Han is unfathomable!
The emperor has also been pondering Huang Han's motives, first looking for Dongchang and Jinyiwei to verify, and after falling asleep and thinking about it, he always can't sleep, and today he went to court with dark circles under his eyes.
Not long after the court discussion, the emperor took the initiative to talk about the treatment of Sun Yuanhua, and he said: "Sun Yuanhua's improper employment led to the erosion of Denglai, and he should have been sentenced to beheading on the same day."
Yesterday, General Pingliao played right, in the past, Sun Yuanhua presided over the defense of Ningyuan, personally deployed dozens of cannons, and those artillery made great achievements when Ningjin won a great victory.
Now, after six years, it is necessary to repair and maintain those cannons, and there is no such talent in the 'Red Banner Army'.
General Pingliao therefore asked for a postponement of the execution of Sun Yuanhua, and gave him a year to replenish the army and go to Ningyuan to repair the artillery. ”
Xu Guangqi was relieved to hear this, and had a feeling of being in a desperate situation, it turned out that the closed disciple lived up to his trust and directly talked about Sun Yuanhua yesterday.
Zhou Yanru's eyes also lit up, and he hurriedly gave Donglin party members a look.
Yu Yinggui, Li Mengchen, Lu Zhenfei and others impeached the first assistant Zhou Yanru, and a group of ministers who tried their best to demand that Sun Yuanhua be canonically punished, were dumbfounded.
Huang Han is notorious, once committed shooting Zu Dale, and threatened to beat up the ministers who dared to do bad things to him in the court, and eliminated dissidents in Ningyuan in the spring, and cleared out dozens of generals above the fourth grade at once, and did not hesitate to lose the marquis for this.
Now this person named the emperor by name, the purpose is to let Sun Yuanhua go to Ningyuan to repair the cannon as a matching army, and it is limited to one year, if he does a good job, he will be killed, and if he does not do well, he will be beheaded at this time next year.
That's a problem! Should we oppose or support it? Yu Yinggui, Li Mengchen, Lu Zhenfei and others couldn't make up their minds for a while.
Xu Guangqi is really not suitable to be an official, he can't do it at this time, the old god is there, seeing that Sun Yuanhua has a glimmer of life, he can't help it anymore, and immediately goes out of the class:
"Your Majesty gave Sun Yuanhua a chance to atone for his sins, the old minister dared to be a guarantee, Sun Yuanhua went to Ningyuan, and he would definitely seriously repair and cast cannons for the imperial court."
Seeing that Xu Guangqi spoke, Zhou Yanru immediately helped: "Your Majesty is strategic, let Sun Yuanhua fill the army and go to Ningyuan to serve the country very well!" The artillery arranged by Sun Yuanhua in Ningjin's great victory that year did indeed make great achievements. ”
Han Rizhang, Li Changgeng and other cabinet ministers also seconded the proposal, believing that as long as it is beneficial to state affairs, Sun Yuanhua can be spared. Chongzhen's gaze swept to Wen Tiren, because this cabinet minister had always advocated that it would be difficult to correct the law of the country without killing Sun Yuanhua.
