Under the leadership of the eunuch who led the way, he entered the city from the Gaoqiao Gate of the outer city, entered the inner city through the Zhengyang Gate, and then went straight to the palace.

Perhaps because the treasury was full some time ago, the Nanjing Imperial Palace was repaired a little, which was much better than when Chen Yue first entered the palace.

Along the way, the palace maids and eunuchs who passed by all looked curiously at Chen Yue, who looked dirty, and those who recognized Chen Yue's identity immediately showed respectful faces.

Chen Yue didn't know this, and thought quickly in his heart, why Chongzhen summoned him so urgently, it seems that the situation is even more critical than what Wang Yin said when he was in Hangzhou!

Before arriving at the Qianqing Palace, a little eunuch entered the palace to make a report, and it was only a moment's work to wait for the news of Chongzhen Xuanjin.

Walking into the Qianqing Palace, when he saw Chongzhen's face leaning on the bed, Chen Yue suddenly felt that his eyes were sour, and an unspeakable sadness welled up in his heart.

It's just that he hasn't seen him for half a year, and Chongzhen's face has become Chen Yue's incredulity.

In the past, he only had a little gray hair, but now his head is snow-white, coupled with his sallow face and wrinkles, he is not more than forty years old, but he looks like he is sixty or seventy! Cumbersome things, increasingly difficult and dangerous state affairs, have crushed Chongzhen's shoulders and completely destroyed his health.

"Your Majesty......" Chen Yue grabbed a few steps and fell to the ground, choked up and almost speechless.

Chongzhen's slightly closed eyes opened, coughing slightly, looking at Chen Yue who was kneeling not far in front of him, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

It was the person in front of him who single-handedly rescued himself from Beijing, defeated King Fu's rebellion, and put himself back on the throne; It was the person in front of him who fought for himself in the north and south, defeated the two-way attack of the Manchurians, saved Da Ming Yu from crumbling, and even took his father's life for this.

However, out of balance and jealousy, he gave him a high official and a good knight, but he also checked and balanced it. In order not to make his credit too great and his prestige in the government and the opposition is too high, he did not let him recover according to the actual situation, but listened to the advice of the courtiers and let Lu Zhenfei lead the troops to the Northern Expedition.

And it was this decision that buried more than 100,000 troops of the Ming Dynasty, ruining the good situation, and the thieves took this opportunity to take advantage of the midwinter season to go out of Sichuan, and now half of the Ming Dynasty is already full of beacon fires!

For the past decision, it is impossible to say that he does not regret it in his heart, but Chongzhen asked himself if he had done anything wrong. As the emperor, he must adopt some balanced means to control his subordinates, and he certainly cannot tolerate one person holding too many military power to threaten the rule.

Chongzhen didn't doubt Chen Yue's loyalty too much, he used to just be wary of it out of a balanced psychology, no wonder the Manchu Dynasty was mediocre in both civil and military affairs, except for Chen Yue, there was no one available!

Although he regretted it, although he was anxious in his heart, the words that could come out of Chongzhen's mouth were different.

"Chen Yue, are you dissatisfied with me?" Looking at Chen Yue for a moment, Chongzhen suddenly asked.

Chen Yue was stunned for a moment, what kind of rhythm is this?

"Why did Your Majesty say this, how dare the minister be dissatisfied with Your Majesty?" Chen Yue said in panic.

"If you weren't dissatisfied with me, why didn't you hear from you all winter? So much so that during the Northern Expedition, I had to use Lu Zhenfei as the supervisor to carry out the Northern Expedition, which led to defeat. Chongzhen said coldly.

Is it all my fault? Chen Yue was stunned, but he also heard another meaning from Chongzhen's words, that is, if Chen Yue had not left Zhoushan to go to the Japanese Kingdom at that time, Chongzhen would have issued a holy decree to regain his feelings and let him lead the Northern Expedition, expressing his trust in himself from another level.

"The minister was discouraged by his father's mourning, and in order to relieve his sorrows, he took a boat across the sea, and encountered wind and waves and drifted to the country of Wa, until winter, where is the dissatisfaction? Besides, His Majesty's kindness to his ministers is as heavy as a mountain, and he was crowned the prince of the country at the age of a weak crown, and he even promised to marry the princess with the ministers, how could the ministers be dissatisfied? Chen Yue said, there are many things that cannot be explained, so he prevaricates by boating to the sea to dispel his feelings.

"Hu Ke gave Xiong Rulin an impeachment to you, saying that you sent troops to attack Dongfan privately, and you have the intention of abandoning Daming and going overseas to establish a country, what do you explain?" Chongzhen asked again.

"Xiong Rulin is simply ignorant and ignorant of nonsense, and I have already told the court the details of the situation of the attack on Dongfan. The minister impeached Xiong Rulin for framing the minister with ill intentions, and he must be dismissed from his post and put in prison to ask his motives! Chen Yue shouted.

"Nonsense! Xiong Rulin, as an official of the imperial history, hears that it is his power, how can he be convicted for his words! Chongzhen glared at Chen Yue and scolded.

"I was impeached as an official in the imperial court, but I didn't expect to be impeached when I was far away from overseas, I really can't live this day, the minister asks to resign from all official positions and titles, let me be an ordinary ordinary people!" Chen Yue complained and played a scoundrel.

When is it, it's all sick like this, Chongzhen still wants to beat himself first, which makes Chen Yue very unhappy.

"You!" Chongzhen suddenly became a little angry, now the situation is in full swing, he is still waiting for Chen Yue to put out the fire, if Chen Yue has emotions because of this, it will be really difficult to do.

"Passing on the decree, Xiong Rulin's inappropriate language and indecency were dismissed from his post in the household department and reassigned to Guangxi as the magistrate." Chongzhen had no choice but to command.

Han Zanzhou, who was waiting on the side, quickly wrote down Chongzhen's words, but his heart was full of emotion, Chen Yue just made a dignified household lose his official position in the matter, it seems that the situation in Nanjing is about to change greatly!

forced Chongzhen to dismiss Xiong Rulin, who had impeached himself, and when he first came to Nanjing, he established a prestige, and the officials who wanted to come to the imperial court had to weigh one or two when they faced themselves again, and they were quite satisfied with this Chen Yue.

However, looking at Chongzhen's face, Chen Yue also had to explain in detail the significance of attacking Dongfan.

“...... Dongfan is thousands of miles away, the land is fertile, and there are too many landless people in my Ming Dynasty, which is enough to settle hundreds of thousands of people, which can greatly relieve the pressure on the imperial court. Chen Yue said at the end.

Chongzhen insisted on listening to Chen Yue's story, but he didn't have much interest, Chen Yue described the future occupation of the islands in the South Seas, immigration and trade, in order to solve the various contradictions of the Ming Dynasty seems to be very beautiful, but now the danger of the Ming Dynasty is imminent, he doesn't have the heart to think about such a long-term thing.

"What Aiqing said is very reasonable, but I don't know if I can wait until then." Chongzhen sighed.

"Why did Your Majesty say that?" Chen Yue said in panic.

"I know how my body is, I want to be able to see the extermination of the thief, and then see you and Kun Xing marry, so that my wish is enough!" Chongzhen sighed.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, although the Shunxi thieves are powerful, in the eyes of the ministers, they are just some people who jump off the beam, and it won't take long to sweep them away!" Chen Yue knew what Chongzhen wanted to hear the most, and he assured. ()
