"Yuan Aiqing, you said that you would restrain your subordinates...... But can I believe what you say? I only heard Emperor Chongzhen say coldly.

"Your Majesty...... Chen Cheng is terrified...... The emperor is the lord of Yingcha, how dare the ministers deceive the king? Yuan Chonghuan hurriedly explained.

"Humph! And what else do you Yuan Chonghuan dare not do? Chongzhen scolded, "I have twice issued an order asking you to return to Mangui, but you dare to turn a deaf ear, and you dare to shoot at friendly troops with arrows, what is this not a bully?" ”

It is said that the emperor said such a heavy word, and the courtiers should immediately kowtow and apologize and ask the emperor for forgiveness.

But Yuan Chonghuan is not an ordinary courtier, he only feels that what he is doing is extremely reasonable, but the emperor is young and ignorant and can't understand his painstaking efforts.

So Yuan Chonghuan was patient, and explained in a calm tone: "Holy Lord, there is a way that 'the general will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected', and the minister at that time did not intend to disobey the holy decree, but out of such considerations......"

Emperor Chongzhen didn't wait for him to continue, "Haha" laughed twice, and interrupted: "What a 'will be outside, the king's order is not affected'!" Do you mean, if I let you out of the city now, then you will be outside the city, and you will not be subject to my orders? ”

Yuan Chonghuan realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to beg for mercy: "Your Majesty, that's not what the minister meant." It's just that the situation at that time was really involuntary, and the emperor listened to Weichen's explanation......"

"Humph! Everything is in your possession, you Yuan Chonghuan is my first general in the Ming Dynasty, and of course I can't understand your tactics and strategies. It's better to be like this, when the Manchurian Tartars enter the customs, how should the inside and outside of the Beijing division be defended, it is better to ask you Yuan Inspector to deal with it with full authority! Shang Fang sword, you already have the royal flag, you may not be able to look down on the gold medal order arrows and the troop transfer tiger talisman, why don't you hand over the jade seal of the country to you? ”

The more Emperor Chongzhen spoke, the more annoyed he became, and in the end, he was almost pulling his throat to spew the anger in his heart.

Yuan Chonghuan was yelled at by the emperor like this, and finally relented, and said: "Don't dare...... Don't dare ......"

But halfway through his words, he refused to admit defeat completely, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, the minister is wrong, please ask the emperor to punish one of the ministers." But those soldiers under the command of Weichen are all thousands of miles to come to King Qin, and I ask the emperor to remember that they have fought bloodily for so long and are indeed quite meritorious, so that they can enter the city to rest! ”

As he spoke, Yuan Chonghuan kowtowed a few times.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen, who was moved by Man Gui, was not moved by Yuan Chonghuan at all, and squeezed out two words between his teeth: "No!" ”

Yuan Chonghuan said so many good words, but in exchange for this ruthless "no", he was immediately aroused to be rude, suddenly stiffened his neck, and said to Emperor Chongzhen in an almost questioning tone: "Your Majesty, why are the soldiers under the command of Weichen."

Can't go into town? Why was the defeated army led by Man Gui able to enter the city? Why was the rabble gathered by Lu Xiangsheng able to enter the city? Please show me the Holy Grace! ”

How can a courtier speak to the emperor in such a tone?

The officials who were listening above the gatehouse listened to the conversation between Emperor Chongzhen and Yuan Chonghuan, and their hearts were so frightened that their hearts jumped out of their chests, and there were a few officials who were a little less courageous, and they almost fainted.

Sun Chengzong intended to ease the atmosphere between their monarchs and ministers, but Yuan Chonghuan spoke too hard, so that he didn't know where to interject.

And Ji Qingwen was afraid that if he helped Yuan Chonghuan speak, Emperor Chongzhen would be angry with him, and his wife's dream of being a rich man would be shattered.

So the Guangqu Gate gatehouse suddenly fell into a dead silence, and after a long time, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Okay! That's a good question! You are speechless when you ask, you really deserve to be the Ji Liao Inspector who swept through Liaodong! ”

Yuan Chonghuan also realized that he had just said the wrong thing at this moment, and hurriedly apologized: "The minister has just lost his words, and I ask the emperor to forgive ...... sins."

"No, you didn't lose your word, you mean it. That being the case, we are honest with each other today, and I have a few questions for you! ”

Saying that, Emperor Chongzhen paused and asked the first question: "I ask you, when Mao Wenlong was stationed on Phi Dao, he was a henchman of the Manchurian Tartars and was stabbed in the back, why did you kill him?" You are the Jiliao Governor, don't you know how jealous Huang Taiji is of the nail of Phi Dao, do you dare to easily pull out this nail for Huang Taiji? ”

The killing of Mao Wenlong was a major event done by Yuan Chonghuan, although part of the reason was to unify the power of Liaodong, but it was also mixed with personal grudges between him and Mao Wenlong. And after Mao Wenlong's death, it is also an indisputable fact that Huang Taiji can finally relieve all worries about entering the customs and using troops.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen's first question, Yuan Chonghuan had no way to answer it at all.

I heard Emperor Chongzhen ask the second question: "You are the Liao Governor of Ji, it is said that Liaodong has something to say, saying that you don't recognize Emperor Zhu, but you only recognize Yuan Inspector." You have such great ability, Huang Taiji mobilized all the elites of the Eight Banners to bypass your defense area and advance westward and then south, why didn't you notice the slightest movement? ”

Yuan Chonghuan discovered Huang Taiji's movements, but he didn't expect that Huang Taiji would make a desperate bet and mobilize all the elites of the Eight Banners to go south, and underestimated the scale of his military operations, so although he also sent an early warning to the imperial court, his tone was also tepid, and he didn't expect that Huang Taiji would attack Jingshi.

This one, Yuan Chonghuan can more or less refute one or two.

Unexpectedly, Chongzhendi's third question followed: "I remember that I have given you many orders to reject the enemy from the capital division, and to defend the key points of Jizhou and Tongzhou." But why did you let Huang Taiji go around easily

After these strongholds, go straight to the capital? Is your deployment like this, is it what a dignified Jiliao Inspector should have? ”

When Yuan Chonghuan heard this, he immediately replied: "The minister is ready to rely on the benefits of the Jingshi Fortified City to attract the main force of Huang Taiji under the city wall, and then defeat it in one fell swoop." Your Majesty, the Four Banners of the Right Wing of Manchuria that attacked our army today have indeed been severely damaged by Weichen! ”

"You mean I'm wrong to blame you? Since you are a loyal minister, then I must be a faint king? Chongzhen's tone was as plain as a puddle of clear water, but the semantics were surging as if the waves were turbulent.

I only heard the emperor then ask: "Then I ask you again, you once promised me that you would pacify Liaodong within five years, and your teacher Sun Chengzong and your fellow disciple Ji Qingwen heard it with their own ears." They're your own people, so they won't help me blame you, right? In that case, then I have to ask you again, now that two years have passed, how have you pacified Liaodong? Well? ”

Yuan Chonghuan hurriedly replied: "In the past two years, the minister has opened up a hundred miles to the north, sheltered 50,000 good people, and recruited ...... new soldiers."

"Clever words!" Emperor Chongzhen did not hesitate to interrupt Yuan Chonghuan's words, "In two years, I have exchanged for the Manchurian Emperor Taiji, who is getting bigger and bigger, so much so that he invades the Guannei and threatens the Jingshi!" Since the orthodox emperor of our dynasty, which emperor has suffered such a great humiliation? ”

Yuan Chonghuan finally realized the real reason why he angered Emperor Chongzhen, but he already regretted it, and was dumbfounded and sweaty by the emperor's successive questions.

I only heard Emperor Chongzhen say again: "The so-called lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death." You, Yuan Chonghuan, have made me suffer such a great humiliation, what qualifications do you have to force words and chatter in front of me? Hum! A good lord humiliates his ministers to death, self-judgment or killing, you choose! ”

Self-determination is suicide.

To show slaughter is to cut off the head in public.

Of the two roads that Emperor Chongzhen gave to Yuan Chonghuan, none of them was a way to live!

When Yuan Chonghuan heard this cold will, his head sounded, and he suddenly went blank.

When his master Sun Chengzong heard this, he hurriedly knelt down again, kowtowed again and again, and said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed Yuan Chonghuan that this kid has done something wrong, but Huang Taiji is still outside the city, and it is really unfavorable to kill the general now, it is really unfavorable to the army, Emperor!" ”

For some reason, Emperor Chongzhen had tears in his eyes, helped Sun Chengzong up, and said in an unusually calm and peaceful voice: "Teacher Sun, I still understand this truth. But what Yuan Chonghuan did was too much. If I don't kill someone like him, how will I serve the people in the future? ”

Sun Chengzong originally thought that the killing of Yuan Chonghuan was just an angry remark made by Emperor Chongzhen in a moment of anger, but he didn't expect that this was a thoughtful move by Emperor Chongzhen after several years of accumulated grievances, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Alas! Element (Yuan Chonghuan's word) seems to be unable to save this life! ”
