Zhenjiang Mansion, by the canal outside the city, tents stretched for more than ten miles, gathering more than 50,000 people, these are the local troops of Su Songchang's prefectures, and came to Zhenjiang at the behest of Emperor Chongzhen.

Chen Yue only took more than 10,000 people to attack Nanjing, Chongzhen was afraid that he would not have enough troops, so he ordered to mobilize troops from all sides, but now it seems that there is no need, because Chongzhen has received Chen Yue's report of success.

A manor by the canal outside Zhenjiang City, which was originally the courtyard of a gentry in Zhenjiang, has now become Chongzhen's station.

In the manor, in the hall, Chongzhen and a group of civil and military ministers were talking, and everyone looked relaxed and happy. In addition to Lu Zhenfei, the governor of Huaiyang, there were also officials such as Zhu Guobi, the Marquis of Funing, Lu Mingrong, the prefect of Zhenjiang, and Su Songchang, who came with troops.

Yes, Nanjing has been defeated, Chongzhen will be able to go to Nanjing in a few days, the Ming court has finally settled down, and then concentrates on dealing with the strong enemy in the north.

As the biggest hero of this battle, Chen Yue, Marquis of Pingnan, was praised by the ministers, and of course, Chongzhen, who knew people and was good at his duties, was even more respected by everyone, and for a while, sycophants rolled in. Since Chongzhen ascended the throne, natural disasters and man-made disasters, people rebelled, repeated defeats on the battlefield, lost troops and generals, and even the Beijing division was broken, and it has been a long time since I heard good news.

Although it was a civil war now, it was enough to make him happy that he had put down the Fuwang Rebellion in such a short time. Listening to the flattery of the ministers, Chongzhen was in a particularly good mood.

"Pingnan Hou is really the first good general of my Ming Dynasty, first rescued in Beijing, and then swept down the rebellion, and his merits are outstanding, even if he is crowned a national prince, it is not an exaggeration!" Zhenjiang prefect Lu Mingrong shook his head and exclaimed.

Lu Zhenfei was also happily talking with everyone, but when he heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and glanced at Chongzhen worriedly. Lu Mingrong's words seemed to praise Chen Yue, but in fact he didn't have a good intention, he obviously wanted to erect Chen Yue high, maybe he was jealous of Chen Yue's credit.

"The Marquis of Pingnan is still very young, and he has just been made a marquis, and it is not appropriate to be promoted again, so he can be given other rewards. Besides, it is up to His Majesty and the court to decide what kind of reward to give, and it is not appropriate to discuss it here. Lu Zhenfei said lightly.

Chongzhen frowned slightly, he had been only happy to come, and he didn't have time to think about Chen Yue's reward. What Lu Zhenfei said is very reasonable, Chen Yue has just been made a marquis, and he has been appointed to the position of governor of Jiangbei, both the title and official position are already very high, and it will be very difficult to be rewarded again.

The official position can no longer be sealed, the position of the governor has reached its peak, if the title is awarded, if Chen Yue is crowned as the prince of the country now, what will be done in the future?

For Chen Yue, Chongzhen is to be used, and to be reused, with his current performance, he will definitely make more meritorious contributions in the future, and now the reward is too generous, and there will definitely be a situation where there is no reward in the future, what should I do then?

But Chen Yue has made a great contribution after all, if he does not reward or the reward is too thin, he will inevitably lose the heart of the hero, Chongzhen also expects Chen Yue to sweep away the thieves for him in the future to deal with the Mantars, but he doesn't want Chen Yue to be cold. Thinking of this, Chongzhen was embarrassed.

At that moment, a sound of footsteps sounded outside, and then a guard was seen hurrying outside. Wu Mengming stood up, walked to the door, and took a piece of music from the guard.

"Your Majesty, it is the chapter of the Nanjing Military Department." Wu Mengming said softly.

Chongzhen nodded, took it over to look at it, and his face suddenly became extremely exciting.

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

Lu Zhenfei has been awarded the title of university scholar by Chongzhen, and it is inevitable that he will enter the cabinet in Nanjing, so he naturally has the right to know what happened, so he asked.

"Hehe, take a look, this is Chen Yue, the Marquis of Pingnan, whom you just praised, actually raided the Wei State Mansion." Chongzhen said lightly and put the music on the table.

Chongzhen's tone was very flat, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, Lu Zhenfei was shocked and hurriedly stood up, picked up the music, and watched it carefully.

In the recital, Shi Kefa impeached Chen Yue for abusing his power and sealing the Wei Mansion for no reason, which caused panic among the people of Nanjing and panic among the civil and military ministers.

"Lu Qing, what do you think after reading it?" Chongzhen asked expressionlessly.

Lu Zhenfei sighed secretly and handed the chapter to Lu Mingrong and the others beside him, while he pondered, thinking about how to reply.

Chen Yue's move was too bold, and it can be determined from Shi Kefa's recital that Xu Jiujue, the Duke of Wei, did not participate in King Fu's rebellion at all, and he also stayed in the palace when the Pingnan army attacked the city. Since Xu Jiujue's obedience has nothing to do with the rebellion, Chen Yue's move is worth pondering. Why is he doing this?

The Duke of Wei is the hereditary duke of the Ming Dynasty, and the ancestor of the Zhongshan King Xu Da made great achievements for the Ming Dynasty, so the emperors of all dynasties have been enveloped by the Duke of Wei to show the heart of treating the heroes well.

Although Chen Yue's move was under the banner of rebellion, it actually exceeded his authority. Why, exactly? For the sake of credit, no, it won't take much credit to catch one more Xu Jiujue. For wealth? Yes, Chen Yue must have taken a fancy to the wealth of the Wei Mansion!

The Duke of Wei has been entrenched in Nanjing for more than 200 years, and is the first family of the Ming Dynasty, and has accumulated countless wealth, and Chen Yue must have taken a fancy to the wealth of others. Lu Zhenfei couldn't help but think of the legend about Chen Yue, who said that when Chen Yue was a small inspection in Xishan Town, he dealt with the gentry of Fangshan County and swallowed people's property. This guy has a precedent of confiscating other people's properties to make money!

But there are so many wealthy gentry families in Nanjing, how dare you take the Wei State Mansion!

For Chen Yue, Lu Zhenfei felt very good, and always thought that the other party was a famous Zhongxing general of the Ming Dynasty, but now that the famous general brother has done such a thing, how can Lu Zhenfei speak for him?

"Maybe, maybe, it's a misunderstanding......" Lu Zhenfei muttered.

"Misunderstanding? Maybe. Chongzhen sneered.

The others looked at each other and did not dare to speak any more.

"Your Majesty is angry, Pingnanhou is too young to know the importance of Wei Guogong, plus the siege battle army suffered a lot of casualties, and it may be necessary to get some silver to reward the army, so he made a public joke with Wei State." Lu Mingrong smiled and comforted Chongzhen, although it seemed that he was pleading for Chen Yue again, the meaning of his words was that Chen Yue made the act of raiding the Wei Mansion for his personal desires.

"Pass the decree and drive to Nanjing tomorrow." Chongzhen said no more.

The emperor's start is not trivial, plus after the victory, he will go to Nanjing to re-ascend the throne, and he must calculate the date to enter the city, which was originally considered to be an auspicious day for the zodiac three days later, but now Chongzhen has no longer care about it......
