Emperor Chongzhen only got the news of King Fu's rebellion half a month later, and at that time King Fu had taken advantage of the geographical advantage and quietly took Nanzhili. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoHenan and Nanzhili, which have been connected, lie in the middle of the land of the Ming Dynasty like a fish bone, and divide the Ming Dynasty into two parts, north and south.

Now not only the Fu King rebelled, but those courageous princes saw that the Fu King did not suffer a devastating blow, and under the inspiration of the glorious example of the Yongle Emperor, they also followed the example and raised the banner. The whole Ming Dynasty was a mess and became a mess.

King Fu had already prepared, using the equipment of the Kunshan arsenal and accepting the original guards, and in the blink of an eye, he had 100,000 heavy soldiers. In addition, King Fu made a wish to reduce taxes and taxes everywhere, although the teacher was unknown, but it did not arouse great legal resistance.

The low-level people in Henan and Nanzhili provinces were somewhat resistant to King Fu becoming the emperor, but King Fu used tax reduction and exemption to win the hearts of the landlords and merchants, and also used the official road to win the hearts of the scholars. If the original officials are willing to keep people, they will be added to the ranks, and if they are not willing to stay in office, they will be given ten years of salary, and they will be allowed to leave freely.

King Fu is now a proper faction of "benevolent monarchs", except for the people at the bottom who are regarded as livestock, all of them have their own benefits, and they all keep silent. A few hard bones who didn't know each other were all secretly executed.

Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair lifelessly, and the Jinluan Palace, which used to be full of civil and military officials, was now empty, except for the personal eunuch Wang Chengen beside him.

Wang Chengen shook the dust in his hand, and couldn't help complaining: "Long live the lord, this group of civil and military officials is not a thing, it is simply a group of ungrateful forgetful." You treat them well on weekdays, and the Lu of the Eater should bear the worries of the king, but now they don't even come to the early dynasty, what kind of system has it become. Twenty days is not on the morning court, according to the custom, it should be punished with a hundred rods, hum, these beasts. ”

"Hey, even the usual rumors who are scurrying around in front of my eyes and are not safe have disappeared, I ...... Hey, they're all a bunch of immoral people! They're just a bunch of wolves, and everyone wants to bite me out! Chongzhen is now in despair, and now the safety of the Forbidden City is maintained by thousands of young and middle-aged eunuchs, he especially regrets why he wanted to be quick in the first place, listened to the slander of the Donglin party, and laid off the factory guards.

At this time, the emperor's heart was full of thoughts, but more of a self-blame, he sat on the dragon chair without saying a word, reflecting on his various improper measures after taking power: "If there were those factory guards in the Wei Zhongxian period, before these princes did not have the fact, Jinyiwei would definitely send the news to him in advance."

Although the post station is seriously corrupt and has reached the point where it cannot be rectified, why don't you rectify the officials, but instead go to the grassroots post guards who do practical things?

Shanxi thieves? Hehe, it's just a joke, if the people are well fed and clothed, who will rise up and rebel. I should not listen to the slanderous words of the Donglin Party and cut off the pillars of the Ming Dynasty's taxes: tea tax, cloth tax, and commercial tax...... On the contrary, Yuanmu begged for fish to increase the burden of the poor people, and also sent them more salaries, which was really a foolish trick. Otherwise, it would have allowed King Fu to exempt the people from taxes for two years. Those landlords are trying to evade taxes, and the more land they have, the less they have to pay taxes. Luwang has 4 million acres of land, and the poor people who have no land to plant are eating Guanyin soil......"

The disheartened Chongzhen sighed and said sadly: "The general trend has gone, Wenchen pretended to be sick and did not go to court, but he hooked up with those anti-Wang eyebrows. The military generals did not listen to the order, watched the fire from the other side and did not move, Liaodong Zu Dashou, Wu father and son hooked up with Houjin, and intended to let them enter the customs, Yang He, the governor of Shaanxi Trilateral, intended to protect the king of Qin, but the people in the territory were in turmoil and were held back. The Mongol Lin Dan Khan even took advantage of the chaos to attack and disturb the front line of Xuanda, and there were no more usable soldiers in my hands. Hey, this is the heavens that are going to die, and I am going to die! As he spoke, he was so sad that he couldn't help crying.

Wang Chengen saw that Long Live Lord was crying, and he couldn't help crying.

Chongzhen stood up from the dragon chair suddenly, and said sadly: "If there is a person who sells regret medicine in this world, I will definitely kill all the parties in the world, especially the Donglin Party that mistakenly lost the country, but how can anyone buy regret medicine in this world!?" Cheng'en, I am sorry for the people in the world, and I have no words to face my ancestors, and now I can only hang myself with my head and hide my face, so as not to suffer that unwarranted humiliation! ”

Wang Chengen saw that Chongzhen was about to commit suicide, and fell to his knees with a pop, and his voice changed tone under the shock of his heart, "The saint is the body of ten thousand gold, absolutely not!" Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, the chaos in front of you is only temporary, with the wisdom and virtue of the saints, the world will return to the heart just around the corner! ”

The tearful Emperor Chongzhen glanced at Wang Chengen, who kowtowed like garlic, and a warm current surged in his heart, he suddenly remembered his brother's instructions before he died, and then he realized that the eunuch party was a means used by the emperor to check and balance the civil official group after the Xungui group was sluggish, "Hey, what face do I have to live in this world." Now that the treasury is empty, I can't even get the food and salary to help the victims, how can I get the salary to quell the rebellion? If I lose, I have no power to return to heaven, and I can only die......"

Wang Chengen's knee hit the ground with a "knock" sound, he crawled to Chongzhen's body and hugged his calf, and said with tears in his eyes: "Shengshang, King Qin, King Jin, King Shu, and King Chu have stood up, and they support Your Majesty." Lu Xiangsheng's "Tianxiong Army" is also rushing to Jingshi Qinwang to escort him, and the ministers have tens of millions of silver in bribes they receive on weekdays. ”

Chongzhen's face was in a trance, he didn't expect that Wang Chengen, a eunuch, would have more money than himself, and he didn't expect that he would risk killing his head and donate all this money to himself.

Chongzhen gently pulled Wang Chengen up, and the master and servant hugged their heads and cried, "It's late, it's late, since I ascended the throne, I have been busy with government affairs for seven or eight hours a day, so diligent and loving the people, the big tomorrow, why die at my hands!" Now there is only one death, there is no other way, the people are living too hard, only I die to make the people less affected by the sword and soldiers, I hope this group of rebels and thieves will not hurt my Ming people. I first sent off the queen princess, and then I went to the coal mountain. Cheng'en, run for your life! After speaking, he pushed Wang Chengen away, and was about to go to the harem to kill his wife and daughter with his sword.

At this moment, there was a burst of crisp applause outside the Jinluan Palace, and a handsome young man wearing a seven-grade court dress walked in from outside the door, "Lingbao County, Henan Prefecture, Guan Shanyue has seen the saint, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Wang Chengen looked at Guan Shanyue who suddenly appeared in front of him, like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw, and said anxiously: "Hey, Guan County ordered you to come at the right time, the old slave has been persuaded for a long time, but he can't persuade him with a clumsy tongue." Hurry up and persuade the Lord Banzai, he is going to commit suicide! ”

Chongzhen was also quite surprised by Guan Shanyue's arrival, and held back his sobs and said, "Aiqing, please get up quickly." I'm such a field, you don't have to be so thoughtful. ”

Guan Shanyue didn't hear it, and kowtowed as usual before standing up. He had been listening outside the main hall for a while, and knew that the recent events had shattered Emperor Chongzhen's self-confidence, and it was useless to admonish him as usual, only by using the method of agitation could he rekindle his fighting spirit.

He cleared his mind, looked at Emperor Chongzhen with tears on his face, and said loudly: "Your Majesty wants to kill yourself for the common people in the world, good, good, good!" The saint is worthy of the sky, worthy of the people, and worthy of the heart. With this pure heart, the saint is enough to comfort the ancestors and ancestors. Because after more than 200 years, the Ming royal family finally produced a real nobleman! ”

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't hold back his emotions anymore, and cried bitterly when he heard the words, "Those who know me, Guan Qing also!" King Fu will soon be the master of the art of war, but the world is so big, where is my place to stay? ”
