566 Lifting a stone and shooting oneself in the foot
After the most urgent matters were arranged, Emperor Chongzhen finally dealt with the matter of impeachment before the group, and soon issued a holy decree.
Auxiliary minister Cheng Ji was appointed as an auxiliary minister of the Ming Cabinet, but he did not realize the merits of the frontier civil and military generals, officials and soldiers, took the lead in slandering, and had a bad impact on the morale of the border passes.
In addition, two of the five imperial historians and six squires were slandered seriously, and they were dismissed from their posts, assigned to the naturalized army, and engaged in indoctrination. Only if some of his students have been rewarded for their meritorious service, they will be allowed to return to their hometowns.
In addition, Wu Rong was involved in the impeachment of loyal ministers and good generals, dismissed from his post, and assigned to Phi Dao to engage in indoctrination, which can be returned for three years.
The rest of the officials who participated in the impeachment were to be demoted to one level and retained in their own posts for meritorious service, and if they had bad deeds within one year, they were to be punished concurrently for several crimes, and they were severely punished, and they were never spared.
In the holy decree, in addition to these punished, but also commended Wen Tiren, Xue Guoguan, Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou and other loyal ministers and good generals, in addition to their respective rewards, but also let the Ming civil and military officials learn from them, take them as models, for the strength of the Ming Dynasty without fear of hardships, loyal to the country.
As soon as this holy decree came out, the world suddenly looked sideways. More people's eyes are focused on the naturalized states that were newly included in the Ming Dynasty. It can be seen that the emperor attaches great importance to the naturalization state. Even the cabinet ministers have been demoted to the local area, as well as the imperial historians. These are all Jinshi backgrounds, and there are a few places in the world where there are so many Jinshi doing things!
Although no one was killed in this incident, the change in the situation was obvious. The position of the first assistant has been further consolidated, the prestige has been increased, and the decree has been smoother. Many people also noticed that the criminal department also recommended a first assistant in the matter, which made them even more afraid of the power of the factory guard.
When the people of the world were discussing this incident, Emperor Chongzhen also secretly ordered his imperial editing team to compile a commentary on the war in Liaodong and the war in the grassland, asking for a strong expression of the idea of reflecting the bloody battles of the Ming soldiers and serving the country loyally. After he reviewed and had no opinions, he sent it to the storyteller of the post station system for publicity.
At about the same time, in the Guyuan Trilateral Governor's Palace, Yang He was taking a lunch break. This is a bit old, if you don't take a lunch break, you will lack energy, so Yang He's lunch break is thunderous, even if he was a thief in Qindi before, he has always maintained this habit.
But at this time, Yang He had just fallen asleep when he was woken up by the noise outside. If you are woken up during this lunch break, your temper will not be very good!
"What's the noise?" Yang He's words were full of anger, anyone could feel it, as long as he answered a dissatisfied, the thunder rage would explode!
This is also thanks to the fact that the old city has become deeper, if it were to change to before, maybe the board will be beaten first.
"Master, it was two staff members who asked to see me, saying that there was an urgent matter." A housekeeper said outside the door, "The villain has already emphasized that the master is taking a lunch break, but ...... But the two of them still want to disturb the master!"
When Yang He heard this, he frowned, and rubbed his head with his hand, which was a little dizzy. These two staff members have followed him for many years, and it stands to reason that they know their lunch break habits and will not bother. If there is an emergency, what can be the urgency at this time?
As soon as Yang He thought of this, he suddenly thought that many days had passed since the cavalry was withdrawn, so why should there be news? The two of them were so anxious to disturb themselves, could it be that they knew the result of the war on the grassland, ...... Is it defeated?
Thinking about it like this, Yang He felt that the matter was serious. If the cavalry on the three sides can't come back, then I don't know how much trouble will be caused under my own rule.
Yang He thought about it, so he hurriedly got up, and while passing the order, the study was discussing, and he would arrive immediately.
After a while, Yang He hurriedly walked into the study, and when he saw the two staff members coming to greet him, the expression on his face was serious, but he was calm, and while walking towards the main seat, he said in a deep voice: "It's okay, the old man was prescient and gave a note to the court in advance, indicating that the old man was worried ......."
"Lord Governor, it's a win, the grassland war has been won!" The staff with a goatee saw that Yang He was thinking about it, so he hurriedly interrupted the prayer.
Yang He nodded while sitting on the main seat: "It doesn't matter, how many cavalry soldiers can come back, and the old man can also ......."
As soon as he said this, he came back to his senses, and couldn't help but look up in surprise and confirm: "Win? Who won? ”
"It was Hong Zhongcheng who won the battle and completely annihilated Lin Dan Khan's men and horses, and the Naturalization City is already a Ming Dynasty, which is a rare victory!" Another fat staff member hurriedly replied, "And this big victory happened many days ago, and the Jingshi side probably knew about it for a long time." ”
Yang He didn't believe his ears a little, and asked a little nervously: "All annihilation?" Impossible, right? ”
"Your Excellency the Governor, please see, this is a message from General Liao. It's true!" Goatee held a letter in his hand and reached out to hand it to Yang He.
This Liao Shen will be regarded as Yang He's confidant, and his words must be credible. When Yang He heard this, he immediately looked at the letter.
And at this time, the fat staff nagged beside him: "That Hong Zhongcheng didn't have any good intentions, and he didn't even pass on any news, and went directly to the Beijing division with great fanfare!" ”
"That is, he must have wanted to see the jokes of the Governor, otherwise how difficult would it be to get angry?" Goatee also said indignantly.
Yang He ignored their conversation, glanced at ten lines, and after reading the letter quickly, his face was very ugly.
He thought that he couldn't win the battle, so he took precautions and went to the next piece of ambush first. In this way, in case of defeat, he also has a saying. Even if it is a tie or a small victory, he can be said to be cautious and old-fashioned, and there will be no problems!
But the key at the moment is that the grassland war is a great victory, a great victory that has been counted since the founding of the country! The more brilliant this victory, the more it slapped him in the face. In contrast, let alone any old and serious comments, just because you don't know about the military, you will definitely not be able to escape.
And the duty of the governor is the governor's local military and political power, how can he be the governor of the army! Remembering that he also deliberately explained to the messenger who sent the chapter to the Beijing Division, asking him to send it with great fanfare, so that the Beijing Division would know his attitude, Yang He couldn't help but feel full of regret. Look at the date, how many days have passed, and there is no remedy left to remedy it.
Thinking like this, Yang He couldn't help but be smug and depressed, feeling that he was the governor at the end. He threw the letter on the table, reached out and rubbed his head, feeling that his head was really a little painful, and thought to himself, lifting a stone and hitting his own foot, nothing more!
"Lord Governor, look at the war, that Hong Zhongcheng deliberately tricked the Governor!" The fat staff said hatefully.
