Wen Tiren nodded unexpectedly and said, "Yes." Your Majesty, the three crimes listed by the ministers, any one of which ordinary people have committed is a mortal crime. ”

Chongzhen raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean, Yuan Chonghuan is not an ordinary person?" ”

Wen Tiren slapped a sycophant: "The saint is gifted and wise, and he really understands Weichen's thoughts. If there are many major events today, it is the time for the imperial court to employ people. Although since the Battle of Jingshi, there have also been useful people like Hong Chengchou, Lu Xiangsheng, and Lord Ji, but there is still one more talent. Therefore, from the perspective of Daming Sheji, the minister felt that although Yuan Chonghuan should die, but considering the current situation, it was better to keep him alive, and it could be regarded as a suppression of the Manchurian Tartars. ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he immediately fell into deep thought-how to deal with Yuan Chonghuan's matter, Wen Tiren didn't know how many times he had secretly discussed with him, and finally came up with a way to punish Yuan Chonghuan in the canon and use it to purge the dynasty. But now it seems that the resistance to killing Yuan Chonghuan is too great, and if he is forcibly killed, the reasons are inevitably a little insufficient, and it is easy to attract criticism from the government and the opposition. It seems that Wen Tiren saw these situations, so he temporarily changed his mind.

Although Chongzhen has a bad temper, he does not want to be a lonely person, and he is unwilling to give a clear will to kill Yuan Chonghuan after thinking about it; And if he let Yuan Chonghuan go like this, Chongzhen felt a little uncomfortable.

Chongzhen thought about it carefully, and suddenly asked Ji Qingwen again: "Ji Qingwen, did you go to Shanhaiguan once a few days ago?" Have you met Mr. Sun Chengzong? ”

There is nothing to hide in this matter, Ji Qingwen immediately nodded and admitted: "Back to the emperor, I've seen it." ”

"Then how to deal with Yuan Chonghuan, what is Teacher Sun's proposition?" Chongzhen asked.

Ji Qingwen pondered for a moment and said, "Teacher Sun's opinion is like this. said that now Liaodong is lacking a character like Yuan Chonghuan to guard, and it is best to let him make meritorious contributions. However, how to deal with it should still be decided by the emperor. ”

"So, you're the same idea?" Chongzhen asked.

Ji Qingwen nodded without hesitation: "Yes." Although Yuan Chonghuan does things unruly, he still has the ability. He has committed such a big sin now, and the emperor can still spare his life, which shows that the emperor's grace is enough to make Yuan Chonghuan grateful to Dade, and he will definitely be loyal to the emperor in the future and work harder to serve the emperor. ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

In fact, of the six charges listed for Yuan Chonghuan, the remaining five are negotiable, only Yuan Chonghuan promised him "five years of peace", and Chongzhen has always been obsessed with it. You must know that although only three years have passed, during these three years, Yuan Chonghuan will give money if he wants money, give soldiers if he wants soldiers, and transfer which civilian and military generals he wants to transfer without saying a word.

In order to calm the situation in Liaodong, Chongzhen was so good that an emperor acted like a little daughter-in-law, and called Yuan Chonghuan a thousand obedient.

But three full years have passed, although some land has been recovered in Liaodong, but in the end, what is obtained is the result of the Manchurian Emperor Taiji fighting all the way to the city of Jingshi. And this kind of grievance was something that the previous dim-witted Emperor of the Apocalypse had never withdrew, and it was the biggest stain on Chongzhen's tenure as emperor in just four years, which really made Emperor Chongzhen lose face.

And the one thing Chongzhen values most is his face as the supreme in the world!

It was for this reason that Chongzhen killed Wei Zhongxian when he first ascended the throne, and now he is ready to kill Yuan Chonghuan, which is also because of this reason.

can look at the current situation, it seems that the hundred officials of the imperial court may not fully support the killing of Yuan Chonghuan.

This made Emperor Chongzhen disappointed and happy.

disappointed, his plan to kill Yuan Chonghuan seemed to be about to fail; Happy, however, so many ministers opposed the killing of Yuan Chonghuan, after all, it was considered from the maintenance of the society and the rule of the old Zhu family, which can be regarded as a good intention.

Although later facts proved that many officials were not as noble as Chongzhen imagined, the current Chongzhen Emperor seemed to have a hot current in his chest.

So Emperor Chongzhen thought about it carefully, and said word by word: "Jiangshan Sheji, not my own Jiangshan Sheji. It is the Jiangshan Sheji of the hundred officials of the imperial court, and the Jiangshan Sheji of the people of Limin. What should Yuan Chonghuan do...... It is better to let officials above the fourth grade in Beijing and officials above the fifth grade in various places discuss the handling of Yuan Chonghuan's case. If Yuan Chonghuan commits public anger and should be killed, then I will not show mercy; If Yuan Chonghuan should be retained, then leave him with his life and make meritorious contributions! ”

When Ji Qingwen heard this, he was already relieved, Yuan Chonghuan's life finally had a major album.

Zhou Yanru, who was also relieved and added a little more smugness - after all, he is an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, and his henchmen are all over the world, as long as he mediates and commands in the middle, there must be many people in the government and the opposition who agree to keep Yuan Chonghuan's life, and naturally this person can be saved. And saving Yuan Chonghuan is a small matter, but it is a more important thing to gain an advantage in the struggle with Wen Tiren.

And Wen Tiren was also relieved. This political turmoil, which was originally provoked by himself, slowly turned into a political tsunami with the intervention of Ji Qingwen, Sun Chengzong, Gao Qiqian and others, and it is fortunate that he was able to retreat in such a tsunami that was almost out of control.

So everyone had their own ghosts, and after saying a few words to Emperor Chongzhen, they bowed and withdrew from the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as he left the palace gate, he saw that the eunuch Gao Qiqian was still kneeling on the floor, waving his slap left and right weakly, and pumping it towards his face. For such a long time, Gao Qiqian slapped himself more than a hundred times, Rao is skin is so thick that he can't be pierced by needles, and he is also swollen like a steamed bun. But even so, Emperor Chongzhen in the Qianqing Palace did not stop, and Gao Qiqian did not dare to stop his palm, so he could only continue to fight.

Gao Qi sneaked out of the palace gate when Zhou Yanru and others rushed out, as if he had seen a savior, and hurriedly knelt down two steps forward, almost wailing and said to several ministers: "Adults, adults, it's the villain who is ignorant, ask a few adults to be gracious, ask for mercy for the villain in front of the long live lord, and spare the villain's life!" ”

Although this high dive is hateful, in the end, he is also the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant and is the person who serves in front of Emperor Chongzhen at all times. For such a person, either his political life and natural life must be destroyed together, otherwise he cannot be offended to death.

Therefore, after listening to Gao Qiqian's sincere plea for mercy, several adults discussed it and decided to leave this face to the eldest Xu Guangqi and let him go to intercede with Emperor Chongzhen.

This Gao Qiqian itself is a dog sent out by Emperor Chongzhen, for the sake of this dog biting people, Emperor Chongzhen still decided to forgive him, and after reprimanding him, he let him stay in his original position.

Today's trial of Yuan Chonghuan's case can be regarded as first suppressing and then rising, although he was stirred up by Gao Qiqian, but when he faced the saint in the end, he turned the situation around, and depending on the situation, Yuan Chonghuan does not have to die.

This made Ji Qingwen very happy, and after returning to Yunlai Inn Meimei for a meal, and Meimei slept for a while, he personally went to the yamen of the Criminal Department and told Yuan Chonghuan the outcome of the matter.

Although Yuan Chonghuan is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, he is also fortunate to be able to pick up a life, and when he heard such news, he immediately expressed his heartfelt thanks to Ji Qingwen.

Li Yuanyin listened to Ji Qingwen's instructions, and the black materials collected by Gao Qiqian were also continuously sent to the Yunlai Inn. This Gao Qiqian really doesn't seem to be a good person, he has done a lot of things like bending the law for bribes, forcibly buying and selling, and disregarding people's lives, and any crime sent to Chongzhen is enough for this Gao Gonggong to drink a pot.

However, thinking of Gao Qiqian's face being beaten into a pig's head outside the gate of Qianqing Palace, Ji Qingwen felt a trace of compassion again, and asked Li Yuanyin to stop investigating Gao Qiqian and press the matter first.

But Li Yuanyin raised an objection, saying that Gao Qiqian seemed to be a little unaware of the surprise, and he could continue to investigate, and when it came to the critical moment, it could be used as a trump card to restrain this high-powered eunuch.

Li Yuanyin is a senior spy, an expert in investigation and research, and engaging in black materials, Ji Qingwen told not to alarm Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and let him go.
