In the middle of June, all the Chahar people withdrew from the side wall, and the Xuanda crisis came to an end, but the aftermath did not stop, the young emperor in the Forbidden City of Beijing was furious, this was the first year of Chongzhen, the side wall that had always been boasted of being impregnable was easily broken by a group of extremely tired barbarians, Datong, Yanghe and other places were plundered, and the soldiers and civilians were killed and injured 20,000 or 30,000 people, and the Xuanda Governor and the officials and soldiers of the three towns avoided fighting and sat back and watched the local misery, and finally let this group of barbarians retreat, which was a shame for the young emperor.

The emperor was angry, of course the imperial historians would not let go of the dereliction of duty Xuanda officials, the impeachment of Xuanda civil and military officials flew to the interior like snowflakes, Xuanda Governor Zhang Xiao, Datong Governor Zhang Yiming, Datong General Qu Jiazhen are all in the list of impeachment, provoked the border chaos Xinping Fort General Fang Zhikun, and the victorious Fort General Xing Wanmin who lost the border wall naturally can't hide, Shaanxi Provincial Imperial History Li Shan is even more directly impeached Qu Jiazhen "can not fight, neither can go to chase", advocated the crime of Qu Jiazhen - Li Shan's contribution this time is indispensable, During his stay in Xuanfu Town, under the instigation of Li Yangchong, the governor of Xuanfu, his mind was hot, and he went to the old capital to meet with Hudun Tuhan, and Hudun Tuhan really fooled him, and the two sides reached a preliminary agreement, and the Ming Dynasty resumed the city reward of 40,000 taels of silver per year for the Han Dynasty, and the Han returned to the area of the West Liao River in the old nest. He described in detail all kinds of evil deeds of the Xuanda officials towards him, and was very indignant at the dereliction of duty of the Ming army who did not want to serve the country and avoided fighting, and patted his chest to ensure that the Chahar people were honest and kind, and they knew how to repay their kindness, and if the Ming State was willing to pay them to guard the border for the Ming Dynasty, of course Li Shan would not eat him, but he was also indignant at the officials and soldiers who were so wretched, and when he came back, he impeached Qu Jiazhen, the chief soldier of Datong.

The emperor was very sad about the change in Datong, at the end of last year, when the news of Shunyi Wang Bu lost the rabbit initiative to pay tribute to the horse, he was also excited for a while, and then Zhang Xiao and Zhang Yiming's performance also said that Xuanda could still be maintained under their control, and these two people had a detailed and thorough understanding of the situation outside the border so that the courtiers were greatly admired, and the military department Shangshu Shen Yongmao also belittled the successive governors of Xuanda and the governors of Datong. Zhang Yiming was also very aggrieved, and they couldn't imagine that Fang Zhikun, the general of Xinpingbao, would do such a stupid thing as soon as his brain was hot.

The matter of Liaodong has not been resolved, Xuanda has an accident here, the court is really anxious this time, the emperor convened the cabinet to discuss, immediately issued an order, Zhang Yiming, Qu Jiazhen dismissed to be investigated, from Shanhaiguan before the general soldier Man Gui took over as the general soldier of Datong, from the Ministry of Officials to transfer Lang Zhang Zongheng to take over as the governor of Datong, Zhang Xiao's problem is the most serious, but the matter of Xuanda has not been solved, he needs to stay in office to wipe his ass, so temporarily let him go, Xing Wanmin left his post without permission to live without seeing people die without seeing ghosts, Fang Zhikun abandoned his post and fled after his whereabouts are unknown, These two guys were dismissed first, and this account will be settled later. The emperor finally took care of Xuanda's military situation, and instructed the household department to allocate a part of the food and salary from this year's tax to Zhang Zongheng, the incoming governor of Datong—this guy would not go on the road without money.

The emperor learned from the pain, summoned the ministers and ministers of various ministries to the Wenhua Hall for review, and in the face of the silent ministers, the tired emperor said earnestly: "Since I succeeded to the throne, there has not been a day when I have not come to the court to listen to the government, and there has not been a day when I have not commented on the reforms. When have I ever been absent from the Ten Days and Three Days and Feasts that have been abandoned for decades? I think I am also diligent in the government, but can the ministers also be diligent in the king's affairs? Now there is no rain in June in the northwest place, the tide in Zhejiang is flooding, the construction of Liaodong is not peaceful, Xuanda has caused border troubles again, internal and external troubles are deeply worried, and the ministers Wen Tian Wu frolic, how have he been worried about me, and the ministers are ashamed in their hearts. ”

The ministers were said to bow their heads, the hall became more and more silent, the emperor was even more angry, and pulled out the matter of banning the destruction of the "Three Dynasties Canon" last month, and the Hanlin Academy read Ni Yuanlu to ask for the ban on the destruction of the "Three Dynasties Canon" and revise the "Apocalypse Record", which was a move by the imperial court to set things right, and the emperor also strongly supported it, but some people just obstructed it in every way, and the ministers came to Daozong, Yang Jingchen, etc., insisted on handing over the matter to the Ministry of Rites and the History Museum for detailed investigation and discussion, and Sun Zhiqi, the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, held the "Three Dynasties Canon" to the Taimiao to cry, Feng Quan, a bachelor who had already been dismissed and returned home, was also entangled with a group of scholars to add fuel to the fire, and the emperor had to throw away the cabinet and act arbitrarily, so as to suppress this group of people, the emperor pointed out sharply that Wei Gelding fell, but the eunuch party still exists, and these traitors and villains are not removed, and the Ming Dynasty will never be at peace.

The ministers immediately became interested, and they were confused about the side affairs, but as long as the emperor was involved in the infighting in the court, it was easy to do, they were doing this, and someone immediately spoke, the emperor Shengming, the reason why there were so many problems in the Ming Dynasty was that there were too many traitors and villains, such as Xuanda place, Zhang Xiao and Zhang Yiming, these people were all in the same stream as the eunuchs, and if they were not right, they could not share the joys and sorrows with the border guards, but would take the lead and be greedy and oppress the soldiers, don't you keep the border and be loyal to the Ming Dynasty? This change in Datong was provoked by the greedy villain, and the imperial court should send someone to Xuanda to check whether someone was pretending to be greedy for ink.

The emperor couldn't help but nod his head, the officials of the Ming Dynasty were indeed corrupt, and this anti-corruption issue was related to the life and death of the Ming court, and it must be grasped unremittingly, and the emperor immediately ordered Dongchang to send people to Xuanda to inspect and investigate.

Then someone pointed out that at the beginning of the emperor's succession, he destroyed the rebel eunuch Wei Zhongxian and his gang, but there are still traitors in the court, which is related to the investigation of the eunuch case Wang Yongguang, the secretary of the criminal department Su Maoxiang, and the left capital to investigate the case of Cao Sicheng, and there are still a large number of eunuchs in the court.

The emperor listened and nodded again and again, it was his proud work to overthrow Wei Gelding and ban the destruction of the "Three Dynasties Canon", he just wanted to clean up the court, clean up the source, and make the Ming court look new, he couldn't help but glance at Wang Yongguang and the three of them, but Wang Yongguang replied in a low voice: "Lord Han is coming, the emperor can rest assured." ”

Wang Yongguang, Su Maoxiang, and Cao Sicheng have become the targets of Qingliu's attacks during this time, and the impeachment of them to protect the eunuchs has been continuous, and the three of them have long been thick-skinned, and the three of them have been mixed in officialdom for most of their lives, and many things have been seen through, the so-called eunuch party can have a few people except for Wei Gonggong himself, and others only need to open their labels to see, most of them are from the Beibang Jinshi, and it is almost the same to say that they are the Northern Party, such as Wei Guangwei, Feng Quan, Sun Zhiqi and others who were driven home by the emperor are all people from Zhili, Shandong and other places, Is the power of the Beibang Jinshi something they can afford to provoke? The idea of the three is very simple, resolutely do not do things that cut off people's financial routes and block people's official ways, it doesn't matter if the official is inappropriate, offending people is a big deal, and the emperor has no hope for them and the mud approach, so he used the Qingliu recommended the three dynasties veteran, the former cabinet chief assistant Han Yi into the court, this person is old and upright, the emperor hopes that after his old man enters the court, he can carry out the great cause of eliminating the eunuch party to the end.

The emperor's eyes turned to several cabinet ministers, the cabinet ministers left by the Apocalypse Dynasty were stained with the light of Gonggong Wei, and the remaining Huang Liji, Shi Fenglai and other four people were impeached by Qingliu as Wei Gelding's party, the four old guys quit, and collectively asked the emperor to resign, and gave the emperor an idea of "the cabinet ministers, the new deal with light", the new nine cabinet ministers were selected by the emperor by drawing lots, and the emperor always felt dissatisfied, but he had to rely on these nine old slippery heads.

The ministers can no longer be dumb, the first assistant Qian Longxi had to speak - he was first selected into the cabinet by lot, so he became the first assistant, Qian Longxi first said a bunch of nonsense, the emperor wants to be the master of Zhongxing, he must be a gentleman and far from the villain, the original is clear, the Ming Dynasty will inevitably take on a new look, Han Lao is about to enter Beijing, the old man is honest, highly respected, he will be able to clean up those eunuch desires when he enters the court, and when the time comes, the people are in the dynasty, why worry that the Ming Dynasty can not be prosperous.

The emperor is very dissatisfied, this Shoufu is talented, every time he speaks in the court, the emperor always feels that he has said everything, but it seems that he didn't say anything, Qian Longxi went around a big circle to get down to business: the emperor of Liaodong border affairs has enabled the former Liaodong governor Yuan Chonghuan, he is already on the way, and he will soon be in Beijing, Yuan Chonghuan has been through Liaodong for a long time, and he has been in Liaodong for a long time, and the trouble of pacifying Liaodong is just around the corner, and the Han outside the Xuanda border is just a group of lost dogs, very tired, very poor, very poor Kou is not to worry, The emperor can rest assured to deal with internal affairs, and the disaster in the northwest and Zhejiang is a temporary disaster after all, there are capable ministers and honest officials in the court, and local officials will do their best, and the disaster will be alleviated, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

Qian Longxi fooled the emperor, the emperor's face finally looked good, in the emperor's opinion, Qian Longxi recommended Yuan Chonghuan to him, this can be regarded as a serious thing, today's Liaodong Jingluo Wang's ministers are timid and cowardly, abandon Jinzhou and Da Linghe, and shrink into Ningyuan, and repeatedly ask to give up Ningyuan, want to retreat to the front line of Shanhaiguan, when will such a person be able to calm down Liao.

At this time, the Ministry of War Shangshu Shen Yongmao suddenly came out of the line and said: Shaanxi Provincial Imperial History Li Shan, without authorization and Hudun Rabbit Han peace discussion, although its intentions are good, but the loss of power and humiliation of the country, insertion of Han barbarians, its heart is unfathomable, my Ming silver is the blood and sweat of my Ming people, how can it be easy to deal with people, and I have a Liao in the east, and the northwest has been in drought for two consecutive years, the court is tight, how can there be spare money to this gang of barbarians, the change of Datong is just a fluke in the Han Dynasty, and its momentum has been weak, and the remnants of the people are not to worry, I Ming only sealed a Shunyi king outside the Xuanda border, Since the king of Shunyi and Yong Shaobu either fled or perished, the city rewards of Xuanda and Jiliao border departments did not need to be issued.

Shen Yongmao shouted excitedly: "Tainingwei has been the land of my Ming Dynasty since ancient times, and I would rather lose an inch of land if I lose a thousand troops, and if I want to get the city reward, I must return my Tainingwei of the Ming Dynasty to us, otherwise I won't give him a single son." “

The ministers were taken aback, Taining Wei was originally set up by Emperor Taizu, and Emperor Chengzu was given the Duoyan people who entered the customs to help the war during the Battle of Jingjing, and was one of the three guards of Duoyan, and when Emperor Chengzu went on a northern expedition to Mongolia and Tatar, Wara, he turned his face with the Duoyan people, and the two sides fought, but the Duoyan Sanwei has not been returned, and it has been abandoned for more than 200 years, and Tainingwei is not in the hands of Hudun Tuhan now, but falls under the control of the rival Houjin, Daming and Han may not have the courage to take it back. Shen Yongmao really dared to open his mouth to talk nonsense, that is, Tainingwei was really handed over to Daming, and Daming had no ability to defend it, but Shen Yongmao said proudly, of course, Hudun Tuhan is not out of Tainingwei, then good, he doesn't blame us for not giving the city a reward, and the horse market does not have to be opened, inserting the Han West invasion is nothing more than staring at the horse market in the eyes, we don't open the horse market, they have no food to eat, no clothes to wear, no iron tools to use, it won't take long for them to fall apart, I Daming can relieve the Xuanda border trouble without spending a single soldier, why not.

Shen Yongmao is the son of Shen Shixing, the first assistant of the Wanli Dynasty, only to learn people, often speak wildly, and is very influential in the government and the opposition in the Qingliu, his words were immediately praised by the officials and Qingliu present, Shen Yongmao was even more proud, and said in an impassioned tone: "I am the Heavenly Empire, with a population of hundreds of millions and a vast territory, Taizu and Chengzu Emperor once jumped into the desert and expeditioned to Annam, and the barbarians from all directions bowed their heads to the ministers, and my emperor took Zhongxing Daming as his own responsibility, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty was strong, so why be afraid of these barbarians, I can give the reward of the Ming Dynasty if I want, and I can open the horse market of the Ming Dynasty if I want to, and I must not be at the mercy of the barbarians. ”

Shen Yongmao closed his foul mouth in the cheers of the Qinglius, the young emperor had already been said to worship passionately, and immediately instructed the cabinet to draft a decree to get rid of all the ministries and cities except Liaodong and Jizhen, and close all the horse markets, as for the agreement between Li Shan and Hudun Tuhan, he did not recognize anything.

In addition to Li Huai, who had to stay in the Victory Fort, Hongbatulu Li Yu, Ortai, Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji, Li Fugui, and Namur, all rushed to the Yinma River to greet him. After the Chahar people retreated, the crisis of Xuanda was alleviated, but the situation in the Barbarian Mountain suddenly became tense, and the newly arrived governor of Datong, Zhang Zongheng, not only cut off the monthly food aid to the Manhan Mountain, but also asked the people of the Barbarian Mountain to immediately withdraw from the Victory Fort, and then Song Tongyin also sent a letter to Li Huai, telling Li Huai that the situation in Xuanda had changed, and the Governor was already in danger, and he must return to Yanghe as soon as possible, so as not to make matters worse for the Governor, Li Huai was almost unbearable, and sent people to the Manhan Mountain to report, hoping that the Horde of Hongbaturu would make a decision as soon as possible.

The Great Horde of Humbaturu has some differences of opinion on this matter, Ortai and Namur resolutely disagree to withdraw from the Victory Fort, the Victory Fort is not only the retreat of 30,000 or 40,000 people in the Barbarian Mountains, but more importantly, the horse market in the Victory Pass, the grain, cloth and iron tools urgently needed in the Barbarian Mountains can only be obtained through the mutual market, and now the Ming Kingdom has closed the horse markets in other places, only the Victory Pass because in our hands, we can also make some private transactions with the Ming people, and the loss of the Victory Fort will also cut off the way of life in the Barbarian Mountain, and the two advocate that the Victory Fort can not be withdrawn, And to strengthen the troops, if it is really not possible, we will use force to force the Ming State to recognize our defense of the Victory Fort, and Li Fugui believes that the time is not ripe for armed confrontation with the Ming State, and the most urgent thing at present is to improve relations with Chahar, and find a way to survive between the Ming State and Chahar, and the Victory Fort is not the most important.

Ortai is angry with Li Fugui again - they actually have a good relationship in private, but when it comes to business, they have to quarrel, especially Ortai seems to like to raise the bar with Li Fugui, Ortai accuses Li Fugui of being a scholar at both ends, not like a scholar, but like a profiteer, Tumut and Chahar have a deep blood feud, can the two families come together? If you hadn't done everything you could to protect that Chahar woman during this time, I would have driven them away.

Li Yu and Na Mu'er watched the two of them quarrel with interest, they have seen a lot of this kind of scene, no matter how much these two people quarrel, they will be like brothers when they go out, in fact, Wu Langha was pitted by the two of them, Wu Langha's more than 4,000 people only ate a full meal for two days, and Ortai jumped out, claiming that the barbarian mountain does not raise idlers, and if you want to eat here, you must implement the plan to make up households, everyone has to work to support themselves, if you don't want to, get out, the Chahar people have nothing to eat, go to find Li Fugui, who has no food to eat, Li Fugui received the Chahar representatives very warmly, first boasted about the benefits of Ji Ding's household arrangement, and then solemnly said that if Chahar's brothers and sisters become glorious members of the Barbarian Mountain, then they will not only have food to eat, but also can share the cattle, sheep and livestock, everyone will work together and enjoy happiness, and those who have the ability can also become officials, and no one can bully them, what a beautiful life this is! The simple Chahar people were fooled by Li Fugui, and ate the big pot of rice in Barbarian Mountain with a longing for happiness. This is not counting, Ortai and Li Fugui, who have bad ideas, continue to plot against the Chahar people, under the pretext that there are too few men in the Chahar people, in order to make the Chahar people suffer less, they also swap the Chahar people, a thousand households, with other thousand households, and the elite of the Chahar people are also stuffed into Li Yu's personal guard battalion to fill the battle damage, and the people who have retired from the personal guard battalion are stuffed into the Chahar people as officers, after several tosses, this group of Chahar people is unrecognizable, Li Fugui also has a way to deal with Wu Langha, he said to the angry Wu Langha, In order to show his sincerity, he also ignored Li Yu's opposition, and insisted on setting up Wu Langha's big tent next to Li Yu's big tent, this time Wu Langha was proud, and followed Li Yu all day long, and Ulan did not show weakness, and immediately moved the big tent over, and Wu Langha's big tent sandwiched Li Yu in the middle, when Li Yu had Wu Langha by his side, there must also be Ulan, although Ortai expressed indignation at Li Fugui's behavior of using Li Yu as bait to win over Wu Langha, But he also admitted that attracting Wu Langha to Li Yu's side was indeed conducive to their annexation of the Chahar people, and as for whether Li Yu was sitting on pins and needles, they didn't care.
