"It seems that the thief is not simple!"

Qin Liangyu listened to Tang Shan's words, his brows couldn't help but tighten, and he also hoped that this time the imperial court would recruit a giant thief, and the thief would not repeat it in the future, otherwise, it would be another turmoil!

Soon, Nanchuan City was taken over by the white pole soldiers, and soon after, the governor of Sichuan was ordered by the imperial court to mobilize tens of thousands of troops from all over the country, with Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers as the main force, to launch a comprehensive purge of Zhang Xianzhong's army.

Zhang Xianzhong's men and horses were all frightened by the white pole soldiers, and they all fled, but after a month, the Sichuan Rebellion was pacified.

Although Zhang Xianzhong was not caught in the end, it was basically scrapped, and the imperial court was relieved that it was on the Sichuan side.

After the pacification of Sichuan, the imperial court mobilized troops from all over the country to assist the governor of Shandong to quell Zhang Jun's rebellion, the so-called many people are easy to do, under the encirclement and suppression of officials and troops in various places, Zhang Jun was killed, and his henchmen were almost wiped out.

At this point, the rebellion in Henan, Sichuan, Shandong, and the three provinces subsided, and the imperial court quickly restored its firm rule in these three provinces, which made Emperor Chongzhen very happy, so the long-cherished wish that had been buried in his heart for a long time finally had a chance to come true!

What is Emperor Chongzhen's long-cherished wish in his heart?

Of course, it's a rice fat thief!

When he thought about the giant thief, Emperor Chongzhen was reluctant in his heart, a dignified son of heaven actually compromised with a local bandit, how willing was the arrogant Emperor Chongzhen!

Therefore, after the thieves in the three provinces subsided, Emperor Chongzhen decided to do something to Mizhi, but before that, Emperor Chongzhen had to do one more thing.

So Emperor Chongzhen immediately picked up his pen and wrote a holy decree.

Soon, this holy decree arrived in Chang'an Mansion City, Xi'an, Shaanxi, Sun Chengzong, Sun Hao, Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong and other people, respectfully put down the incense case, knelt down to greet him.

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: Shaanxi was turbulent in that year, and my heart was in turmoil, almost broken. Fortunately, with the assistance of Sun Aiqing, he calmed down the bandits, relieved my worries, and helped the world.

In recognition of Aiqing's merits, Aiqing was immediately canonized as Rong Xingbo, hereditary replacement, and passed on to his descendants.

The other is thinking that Aiqing is old and should not be outside for a long time, so Aiqing will return to the court as soon as possible, live in the temple, and be the center of government.

Chin this! ”

When Sun Chengzong heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, but he quickly reacted, kowtowed, and responded: "Minister, Sun Chengzong received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

After receiving the holy decree, the eunuch who passed the decree congratulated Sun Chengzong with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Rong Xingbo, congratulations to Rong Xingbo, there are very few people who want me to be knighted by Ming Wenchen, and today my lord has the emperor's favor and is specially awarded such a title, which is really envious of others!" ”

Sun Chengzong just laughed a few times and thanked him.

After arranging the eunuch, Sun Chengzong silently returned to the study alone, closed his eyes, and pondered.

"Father, what worries do you have in your heart? This time, the emperor suddenly conferred his father's title, and the child felt very sudden, I don't know how his father felt? ”

After a long time, when Sun Chengzong's mind woke up slightly, Sun Hao asked.

"Hey, the emperor is suspicious of his father!"

Sun Chengzong's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, which frightened Sun Hao's face pale!

"Father, you have always been loyal to the emperor and the Ming Dynasty, why is the emperor suspicious of your father? This is not some misunderstanding! ”

Sun Chengzong took a deep breath, then stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the beautiful scenery of the light clouds and breeze in the sky, and there were tears flashing in his eyes!

On September 15 of the fourth year of Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong was summoned by Emperor Chongzhen in the palace, and was entrusted by Emperor Chongzhen with the right to make decisions on the spot, and presided over the suppression of bandits in Shaanxi.

"Recently, there have been rumors in the court that my father secretly colluded with the leader of Mizhi, although it is untargeted, but since my father took office, he has indeed never used troops against Mizhi, and later his father made every effort to promote the imperial court to recruit the leader of Mizhi, so it is inevitable that it will be true!"

Sun Hao was not angry in his heart, and said: "Father does this, it is nothing more than the court can't afford to fight, what does it have to do with my father!" What kind of heart is this rumor-monger in peace! ”

"That's it, the matter has come to this, there is no need to say any more, when I return to the capital, after thanking Longen, I will resign and retire for my father."

As Sun Chengzong spoke, he turned around and sat on the chair, and then waved his hand to Sun Hao, asking him to go down first and let him be quiet.

Sun Hao had no choice but to go out according to his words.

Now Sun Chengzong is suspicious of Emperor Chongzhen, only by resigning and returning to seclusion can he save his life, otherwise, don't look at him as a veteran of the four dynasties, he is highly respected, and he will be killed at that time, this is politics, there is no way to do it!

On the second day, Sun Chengzong, accompanied by Sun Hao, embarked on the journey back to the capital with the eunuch who sent the decree.

Hearing that Sun Chengzong was leaving, Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong, He Yunfei and other generals all came to say goodbye.

Although they are separated, Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong and others are also very interested, because in their opinion, Sun Chengzong is now canonized as Rong Xingbo by Emperor Chongzhen, and with the title, it is the time when the holy family is thick, and they are naturally happy for Sun Chengzong from the bottom of their hearts.

Moreover, after Sun Chengzong returned to the capital this time, he was going to sit in the center, and his own people would be regarded as people in the court in the future, and it would be convenient to do things in the future.

In this way, although they are reluctant to give up, on the whole, they are still more happy than sad.

"Ge Lao, take care of yourself all the way, if the Ge Lao is useful to my Cao Wenzhao in the future, please ask the Ge Lao to speak, it is to go to the soup and go to the fire, and I will not give up!"

"And me, I, He Renlong, also always obey the dispatch of the elder, as long as,"

Nahe Renlong was about to show his loyalty, but he was stopped by Sun Chengzong, only to hear Sun Chengzong say: "Several generals are serious, you are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and you can only obey the dispatch of the imperial court, as well as the dispatch of the emperor, even if the old man is still an official in the court, he cannot overstep his authority!" ”

Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong's words just now, everyone can have a number in their hearts in private, where can they take it out and say it clearly, especially now that the eunuch who passed the decree is around, if this reaches the ears of Emperor Chongzhen, what do you let Emperor Chongzhen think!

Seeing Sun Chengzong say this, Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong, and they knew that they had said the wrong thing, and they sued again and again.

"Alright, generals, please go back."

"Take care all the way."
