Chapter 38: Sickness

After Chongzhen ordered Qin Liangyu to be the governor of Jiliao, he did not dictate the defense plan of the Jinning defense line, and all things were handed over to Qin Liangyu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In the study room of the General Military Mansion of Jinzhou City, Chongzhen held the information he had just received in his hand, "Mao Wenlong's old department is still happy that the gang was recruited by Huang Taiji, and Huang Taiji stabilized the domestic situation with the help of the surrendered troops, and Fan Wencheng, a strategist who gave advice to Huang Taiji."

Those traitors still rebelled, and the killers sent by Cao Huachun didn't kill them, and they really had some ability to become the vassal kings of the Jurchens later, but now that the Jurchens have been disabled, they can't recover in a short time, and they don't want to go south every three or five years to recuperate, and they can also take advantage of this time to rectify the rule of officials, and now the corruption and erosion of the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the various malpractices of the officials who are corrupt and pervert the law, it is time to clean up.

Before the official rule was rectified, Chongzhen had no plan, and took out the silver of his underwear to subsidize the treasury, and now the officialdom of the people is a bottomless pit, no matter how much he invests, he can swallow it cleanly, and ensure that the money he invests in it will not reach the grassroots level.

"Great companion, now that the Jurchens have been defeated, I plan to hold a "Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony" at the Temple of Heaven, and let people send a decree to order all officials of the third rank and above from all over the country to return to Beijing to participate in the sacrifice to the heavens. Officials in various localities have not dared not to return to Beijing.

"It's the emperor, the minion will let people pass on the decree" Wang Chengen behind him slowly retreated, recalling all the officials of the third grade and above in the country, and it is more reassuring to deal with this holy decree himself.

At present, the Jurchens are newly defeated and unable to go south in a short period of time, Gao Yingxiang's gang of rebels, for the time being, is not a climate, the threat is not big, this is a rare period of tranquility, in these 2 years, they must seize the time to rectify the rule of officials, if you want to quickly rectify the rule of officials, then you need to use thunder means, and now the Ming Dynasty has no time to let yourself spend more than ten years to slowly replace the officials of the DPRK and China. If you really want to do that, you and Daming will be pulled down the abyss by that group of corrupt officials, and after that group of officials pull themselves and Daming down the abyss, they will turn over one by one, surrender to the Jurchens, and still continue to sit on their own officials.

Think about your own Ming Dynasty is now a tax of four or five million taels of silver a year, this money, the net worth of any Donglin Party boss will not be worse than this, Daming is not without money, but the money is in the hands of those Donglin bigwigs who represent the big households in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is only the country that has no money, think about the fact that Li Zicheng later entered Beijing and extorted 70 million taels of silver, this is a Beijing city, how much silver is there in the entire south, there are so many rich Ming people, when their emperor raised donations, one was poorer than the other, Let his emperor be forced to hang himself, but in the end, this group of old things who eat inside and outside here, under Li Zicheng's butcher's knife, either died or went bankrupt.

After Wang Chengen went out, Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, looking at the roof in a daze, since he came to Jinzhou City, Chongzhen has not slept well, and now he can't help but have a headache. Chongzhen, who was a little dull in the house, got up and went out for a walk, this temporary palace is just a general military mansion after all, Chongzhen didn't find anything interesting after turning around, and it was winter now, and there was nothing to see, the mood did not disperse, Chongzhen felt that his headache was getting worse and worse.

Back to his temporary dormitory, in the room, the hot stove was burning, so that the indoor temperature was much higher than the outside world, Chongzhen sat near the charcoal fire and watched the folding, and before he knew it, Chongzhen, who had no appetite, ate 2 bites and let people withdraw, which made Wang Chengen, who was more on the side, look at it, and frowned a little, what happened to the emperor recently, it seems that something is not normal, it can't be sick.

In the afternoon, Chongzhen became more and more irritable, that is, he couldn't stand the twists and turns in his hands, Chongzhen only felt that his brain hurt badly, put down the twists, sat on the chair, and said to a few palace maids behind him, "Which of you knows how to massage techniques, my head hurts, if you can, come over and help me press it."

Hearing Chongzhen's words, the eyes of several palace maids suddenly lit up, this was a good opportunity to get close to the emperor. One of the palace maids stepped forward to "Go back to the emperor, slave maid, know some superficial massage techniques" to stop the sound is quite crisp, and the appearance should not be bad, but now my head hurts, and I don't have the time to go to a large number of this little palace maid.

A little cool little finger, slowly stretched out, Chongzhen's temples, gently massaged, with the girl's fingers massaged, Chongzhen felt much better. A wave of fatigue hit, and Chongzhen got up and walked to his dragon bed.

Let the girl who just massaged herself be by the bedside, Chongzhen pillowed her head on the girl's lap, feeling the girl's body fragrance coming, 2 small hands, gently massaging on her head, at this moment Chongzhen felt extremely relaxed, didn't think about anything anymore, and fell asleep slowly.

Chongzhen, who woke up again, found himself lying on the boat, surrounded by a group of imperial doctors, and his body was so weak that he couldn't exert any strength at all, and he fell asleep again in a daze.
