Volume 7 Chapter 82 It's time to turn over
Chongzhen is actually not stupid, it is better to say that his IQ is worrying, it is better to say that his EQ is too low, simply put, he doesn't understand the world, and he is always played by Wen Tiren and them!
However, there are limits to this trick, just like in history, he was played by Wen Tiren for nearly ten years, but once Cao Huachun revealed Wen Tiren's true face, he immediately asked Wen Tiren to go home to retire.
At this time, he gradually saw through the true face of Wen Tiren's gang, but not through Cao Huachun, but through Huang Chenghao, or in other words, Zhang Bin designed Huang Chenghao to present the true face of Wen Tiren and his gang in front of Chongzhen.
After a court discussion, Chongzhen fully understood, can these people not know that Zhang Sizhi has a younger brother, even if they don't know that Zhang Sizhi has a younger brother, Zhang Sizhi's personal vendetta and persecution of Fei County officials, can they not know anything about the persecution of Fei County officials, Fei County officials are not under the control of the Criminal Department, but under the control of the Ministry of Officials, and the officials under their management were arrested and tortured to death by the Criminal Department, and they didn't know that they would come to ghosts.
Chongzhen has lost confidence in these people, and he decided to clean up this gang of treacherous villains who have formed a party for personal gain!
However, it is not a simple matter to clean up this group of people, they are just like the eunuchs of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, almost controlling the entire court, if they are all dismissed at once, not to mention whether these people will be dying and struggling, even if they are not dying and struggling, one by one all automatically get out, and the entire court will be paralyzed, not to mention anything else, just the important ministers of the court above the third grade, they account for nearly eighty percent, if all these people are wiped out at one time, except for a few yamen such as the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Household Department, and the Zhan Shifu, I am afraid that the other yamen will be chaotic.
Therefore, the matter of cleaning up the party and the Zhejiang party cannot be rushed, we must take our time, and we must prepare the officials who take over the position, otherwise we must cause chaos in the world, in the first year of Chongzhen, he can also use a few Donglin relics to gather those loyal ministers and sages who are in the Apocalypse Dynasty, at this time, the Donglin relics are almost all returning to their hometowns, who else can he use?
At this time, the only person he can trust is Huang Chenghao, perhaps, Huang Chenghao can recommend a group of officials for him, because, at this time, Huang Chenghao is responsible for supervising the civil and military ministers, who is loyal and who is traitorous, he should know best.
With the mood of trying it out, after the court discussion, Chongzhen summoned Huang Chenghao to the imperial study, and after the monarch and ministers greeted him, he did not hide the anger in his heart, and said angrily: "Bingzhong, what you said is very right, the remnants of the eunuch party are not dead, the Qi party and the Zhejiang party are resurrected, and they have secretly controlled the power of the court!" No wonder I feel that something is wrong, the good situation is reversed in an instant, it turns out that they are playing ghosts, they are trying to cause the Ming Dynasty to be in a state of no return! ”
Huang Chenghao was overjoyed in his heart, and said excitedly: "The emperor is wise, it's not too late to find out now, slowly clean them out of the court, there is still hope for Daming." ”
Chongzhen calmed down the anger in his heart, and then sighed: "How easy is it to clean them out of the court, now, the government and the opposition, there is no one who can replace them, Bingzhong, you supervise hundreds of officials, have you ever found an official who can take on a big responsibility?" “
Huang Chenghao was shocked when he heard this, Zhang Bin even counted this step, the emperor, really asked him about the cabinet scholar and the replacement candidate for the six books, he is just the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, not the secretary of the department!
He couldn't think of this at all, but Zhang Bin had already thought of it, so the answer had already been there, and he carefully arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, can Weichen dare to ask, was it a slander that the officials of Fuguang were demoted to Nanjing last year?" ”
When Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but think of the scene of Wen Tiren, Wang Yingxiong and Tang Shiji's slander, he listened to the slander of these eunuch remnants, and suspected that Zhang Bin had formed a party for personal gain and threatened his imperial power, so he would denounce all the Fuguang officials to Nanjing!
He was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with difficulty: "Yes, at the beginning, Wen Tiren, Wang Yingxiong and Tang Shiji rumored that Zhang Bin had formed a party for personal gain, and I listened to their slander and reprimanded all the Fuguang officials to Nanjing!" ”
This time it was Huang Chenghao's turn to be stunned, the emperor is really, really honest, this kind of thing can be admitted without hesitation!
Chongzhen does have the courage to admit his mistakes, in history he has six "guilty edicts", admit his mistakes, unfortunately, in history, after three years of Chongzhen, it is basically the remnants of the eunuch party who are controlling the government, Chongzhen and then "guilty edicts" are useless, these people are incorruptible and shameless, they don't take Daming and Chongzhen seriously at all, they only know how to fight for power and profit, Chongzhen six times "Guilty Edict", I haven't seen a courtier come out and admit that he did wrong!
Chongzhen is the emperor, the country is in decline, he does have an unshirkable responsibility, but these eunuch remnants, if they can think about the country and the people, if they can think less about fighting for power and profit, bending the law for bribes, and doing more practical things, how can the Ming Dynasty die in the country!
Wanli Dynasty has gone through a total of forty-eight years, Mingshenzong has not been in the dynasty for nearly thirty years to listen to the Ming Dynasty and has not seen the demise, Chongzhen Dynasty seventeen years, Chongzhen Emperor has not slackened for a moment, diligent, waste sleep and forget to eat, but the Ming Dynasty is dead, Chongzhen is responsible, these eunuch remnants also have an unshirkable responsibility!
When Huang Chenghao heard this, he didn't need to pretend to be angry at all, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Sure enough, it's these eunuch remnants, what's wrong with Master Zhang, he exterminated the Southeast Pirates, defeated Hongmaofan, defeated Dongying, defeated Jiannu, and defeated the anti-thieves, is this also wrong?" What's wrong with the Fuguang officials, they will govern the rich world of Fuguang, and the taxes account for half of the entire Ming Dynasty, is this also wrong? What good did these eunuch remnants do, they ran to Yungui and killed more than 400,000 people in Guiyang Prefecture, they went to Bashu, seized the property of more than ten hometown gentry, and arrested people and locked them up for several years; They went to Fei County to arrest the honest and honest officials and the ordinary people who were persecuted by them, and at this time, these people are still in the prison of the Criminal Department! Your Majesty, Weichen dared to say something unpleasant, these people are even more terrible than anti-thieves, anti-thieves are everywhere, the people at least have a way to live, where they go, the people everywhere can't live! “
When Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Yes, at the beginning of my succession, the Ningyuan Mutiny, the Jizhou Mutiny, and the Ganzhou Mutiny, all because Wei Gelding did not pay the border soldiers for several years, and most of the border soldiers mutinied, as well as the Yungui Extravagant Rebellion, the southeast pirates were rampant, the Liaodong Jiannu was rampant, and the northwest was full of thieves. ”
Huang Chenghao took the opportunity to say: "Yes, Your Majesty, these eunuch remnants slandered Lord Zhang and Lord Bi, these loyal ministers and good generals, not because Lord Zhang and Lord Bi formed a party for personal gain, but because they were afraid that Lord Zhang and Lord Bi would take their positions after returning to Beijing, so that they could not control the court!" Your Majesty, what do you think, Lord Zhang, they have a little real power, how could they have corrupted the court for a silver or two, what kind of party did they form, and what kind of selfishness did they have! ”
Chongzhen was completely fooled by Huang Chenghao at this time, he thought about it carefully, and then nodded slowly: "Yes, these chaotic ministers and thieves only know how to fight for power and profit, and for this reason, they do not hesitate to frame Zhongliang, which is a mistake and blame." ”
It's right to think like this, Huang Chenghao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you want to ask Weichen if he has found an official who can take on a big responsibility, and Weichen has the courage to say that Zhang Bin, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Bi Maokang, Cai Shanji, Zou Weilian, Chen Zizhuang, Ni Yuanlu, Qian Shijin, etc. can be of great use, they can make the rich Ming Dynasty governed by Fuguang, and the prosperity and strength of the entire Ming Dynasty!" “
At this time, Chongzhen finally remembered Zhang Bin's goodness, yes, when Zhang Bin was in Fuguang, he never asked himself for money, nor did he care about the court's money, and even he kept sending money to himself, just like that, the two provinces of Fuguang were also governed by him The entire Ming Dynasty, more importantly, he was also invincible, invincible, and compared with these eunuch remnants who only knew how to fight for power and profit, Zhang Bin and Fuguang officials were thousands of times better!
Chongzhen pondered for a while, and finally nodded slowly: "Well, I know, you can retreat first." ”
When Huang Chenghao heard this, he hurriedly suppressed his excitement and retreated, he was really afraid that he would not be able to help but dance excitedly, he knew that this was done, his task was finally completed, and from then on, he was a member of Zhang Bin's subordinates!
Chongzhen was not excited at all at this time, he knew that he owed Zhang Bin too much, such a meritorious virtuous minister was repeatedly suppressed by him, and it was strange that people had no complaints in their hearts, but this time he had to rely on Zhang Bin to clean up the remnants of the eunuch party, because he really couldn't find a more suitable candidate than Zhang Bin.
He thought for a moment and asked outside, "Companion, when is it?" ”
Cao Huachun hurriedly walked to the door and arched his hand: "Back to the emperor, there is still about a quarter of an hour before noon." ”
Chongzhen nodded and muttered, "Bring lunch to the Wenhua Palace, and I will go to have a meal with Hong'er." ”
Cao Huachun hurriedly bowed down and left, and after a while, he led two little eunuchs and came over with two food boxes.
Chongzhen took a deep breath, stood up, and walked towards the Wenhua Hall with a group of eunuchs.
At this time, Zhang Bin was taking the little prince Zhu Cihong to learn the "Analects", but there was one more person in the Wenhua Palace, and the prince not only had Zheng Chenggong to accompany him on one side, but also a new Zhan Shifu right Zhongyun Chen Zilong on the other side.
This Chen Zilong was specially brought by Zhang Bin to himself as a substitute, although he didn't ask about political affairs, but after all, he was the chief official of Zhan Shifu, and sometimes he still had some things, so he pretended to order a tanhualang Chen Zilong at random, and taught the prince instead of him when he had something.
Chongzhen came to the outside of the main hall, there was a burst of Lang Lang's reading, he heard the immature voice of Zhu Cihong in the middle, and his face couldn't help showing a kind smile, at this time, the eunuch who sent lunch to Zhang Bin and them also came, he raised his hand directly, signaled all the eunuchs to stop, and then walked gently to the door of the hall.
Zhu Cihong followed Zhang Bin to read the political chapter, and suddenly touched his stomach and said, "Master, I'm so hungry." ”
Zhang Bin was sitting facing the door, naturally he had already seen Chongzhen, he was stunned for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Have you memorized the political chapter, memorize it well, and we will eat." ”
When Zhu Cihong heard this, he said as if offering a treasure: "Master, I remember it well, and Zi said: For politics and morality, such as Beichen, live in its place and all the stars are together." Zi said: ....... ”
Chongzhen watched Zhu Cihong shake his head and recite the political chapter, and couldn't help but show a relieved smile on his face, but Zhang Bin kept sitting there upright, until Zhu Cihong finished reciting, he nodded and said, "Very good, eat." ”
When Zhu Cihong heard this, he couldn't help jumping up from the ground and running to the side hall where he was eating, but as a result, as soon as he turned his head, he saw Chongzhen, he pounced directly and said excitedly: "Father, why are you here?" ”
Chongzhen picked him up and said with a smile: "Father is free today, can I have dinner with you?" ”
Zhu Cihong immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay, good." ”
At this time, Zhang Bin brought Chen Zilong and Zheng Chenggong over, and when they saw each other, Chongzhen didn't see them, and smiled directly: "Let's go, let's have a meal together." ”
Zhang Bin hurriedly pretended to be flattered, took Chen Zilong and Zheng Chenggong, and followed Chongzhen's father and son to the side hall where they were eating.
In fact, eating with Chongzhen is not as good as what he eats at home, he is quite clear about this, there are eight plates on the table, but it is still three dishes and one soup, but it has become a double portion.
Zhang Bin, Chen Zilong and Zheng Chenggong are usually not arrogant and lascivious, although these three dishes and one soup are a little simple, the taste is still good, they all eat with relish, Chongzhen couldn't help nodding secretly, he understood after seeing the dazzling array of gold and silver tableware in Wang Yingxiong's mansion, these eunuch remnants eat much better than him, just throw a plate out, it is enough for him to eat for a year, on the other hand, Zhang Bin and them, this relish is definitely not pretended.
He couldn't help but ask, "Shuangquan, do you still have the habit of eating this coarse tea and light rice?" ”
Zhang Bin said respectfully: "Back to the emperor, Weichen usually likes to eat these, eating too much fish and meat to grow fat, which is not good for the body, or coarse tea and light rice, which is conducive to health." ”
Zhu Cihong couldn't help but interject at this time: "Yes, yes, father, the master's family also eats these, but it is better than what is made in the palace." ”
When Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Oh, I'm going to try it someday." ”
Of course he didn't really want to go to Zhang Bin's house to eat, he was releasing goodwill, Zhang Bin also participated in the court meeting, and naturally knew that today's court meeting was "very successful", Huang Chenghao was then called by Chongzhen He also knew that it seemed that this guy should have become, he was going to turn over!
Sure enough, after lunch, Chongzhen signaled that Chen Zilong and Zheng Chenggong took the little prince Zhu Cihong to play in the main hall square, while he took Zhang Bin to the corridor in the distance.
Zhang Bin pretended not to know all the way, respectfully followed behind Chongzhen, without saying a word, Chongzhen looked at Zhu Cihong who was playing happily in the distance, and couldn't help but praise: "Shuangquan, you are really an all-rounder, anything is entrusted to you, you can do it properly, Hong'er can have a famous teacher like you to guide, it is really his blessing." ”
Zhang Bin hurriedly said modestly: "Weichen doesn't dare to take credit, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is smart and studious, and today's results are completely the result of his hard work." ”
When Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "I know your ability, it's not good to be too modest." ”
Zhang Bin hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Weichen is panicking. ”
Chongzhen suddenly said solemnly: "You should have seen it today, the remnants of the eunuch party in the DPRK and China are about to cover the sky with one hand." ”
Zhang Bin didn't hide it, but nodded directly: "Weichen understands, but Weichen doesn't dare to say it, because in order to keep the power in his hands, the eunuchs have always killed all the meritorious ministers, and Weichen is afraid that as soon as he jumps out, he will be killed by them." ”
Of course he is not afraid, he is just pretending to be pitiful in front of Chongzhen, he just wants Chongzhen to understand that he was miserable by the remnants of the eunuch party.
When Chongzhen heard this, he was really fooled, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "I have wronged you, I used to listen to the slander of the remnants of the eunuch party, and it is indeed a little unfair to you, now, I have understood, only you loyal ministers and good generals can help me to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty, are you willing to help me eradicate the remnants of the eunuch party and revive the Ming Dynasty?" ”
Is this right, Zhang Bin pretended to be in the soup, and said without hesitation: "Your Majesty, please command." ”
