Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Book of the Ministry of War
After Cui Chengxiu was pressed down, Hong Chengchou ordered: "All the soldiers obeyed the order, divided the army of 500, and seized the Shangshu Mansion. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Tian Ergeng is the person in charge of this matter, but he was robbed of the throne by Hong Chengchou, if he must be uncomfortable in his heart, but because of Tian Ergeng's identity, he can't say anything, he used to be a eunuch, and now he can only rely on the emperor to say that it is a mud bodhisattva to cross the river.
After the forbidden army got the order, they searched each courtyard and courtyard, and there were many ugly things in this investigation, there were officials who drilled under the bed, officials who hid in thatched houses, and even officials who climbed on the beams of the house, but even if they hid in hiding, under the search of the forbidden army, they were still captured one by one, and when these people were brought to Hong Chengchou and Tian Ergeng, the two people showed completely different appearances.
One had eyes shining brightly, while the other had a face as dead ashes.
Of course, the eyes are shining on Hong Chengchou, and Tian Ergeng is the latter, these officials almost represent the small half of the Ming Dynasty, this conspiracy against the turmoil is destined to become a big case that shocks the world like the blue jade case in the Hongwu period, the more people are involved, the higher the position, the more opportunities the people below have to climb up, and Hong Chengchou is one of the thousands of people who want to climb up, this cannot be said that Hong Chengchou is a villain, try to ask who in the world does not want to enter the cabinet, and worship the prime minister.
"Yang Huan, it's all this hour, why aren't you in your own home, but in Cui Chengxiu's mansion?" Hong Chengchou asked with a sneer.
Yang Huan snorted coldly and did not speak.
"Let them all kneel." Hong Chengchou looked at Yang Huan, who was still full of authority, and felt extremely uncomfortable.
"We are the important ministers of the country, the whole world, it is the emperor who deserves to wait for me, you are a small soldier of the army, what is the virtue, let me wait for this great gift." Yang Huan said.
"Hmph, you colluded with Cui Chengxiu with the intention of rebellion, and when the forbidden army searched you out of this mansion, you will no longer be my Ming officials, but traitors and traitors."
"You say that we are conspiring against you, but there is evidence."
"The little ones know." Liu Tong, who was trembling in the crowd, heard the conversation between the two and felt that it was an opportunity for himself.
Liu Tong's shout made Hong Chengchou and Tian Ergeng look at him.
Seeing Liu Tong's eunuch clothes, he suddenly remembered the emperor's explanation.
Hong Chengchou glanced at Tian Ergeng, Tian Ergeng understood, beckoned Liu Tong to come forward, Liu Tong was ecstatic, the self-conscious emperor really did not lie to himself, he walked in the direction of Tian Ergeng step by step, he didn't know that he was dying.
When he stood in front of Tian Ergeng, he just wanted to speak, but he saw Tian Ergeng's index finger tied in front of his mouth and made a silent movement.
When Liu Tong was puzzled, he suddenly felt a hot pain in his back, staggered and turned his head, and saw a forbidden army and his long knife, which was stained with blood, he knew that it was his own, and only then did he know that he was just a chess piece of Zhu Youzhen, if it was useless, what was the use of keeping it.
Liu Tong fell. When he died, he realized that the king could not be trusted, and he could never bargain with the king, even if he got what he wanted, everything was just a flower in the moon mirror in the water, and it was a dream in the end.
Yang Huan and the others were surprised when they saw the eunuch being killed, Liu Tong said that he had evidence in his hand why he was killed, and in a trance, the smart Yang Huan thought of a possibility, could it be that this is a set, it is a set that the emperor gave himself to Cui Chengxiu.
After Liu Tong's death, his own forbidden army dragged his body out of Shangshu Mansion.
At this time, a brocade guard walked forward with the proclamation signed by all the officials and handed it to Li Shichao.
And all the eunuch party officials saw the proclamation, and some officials were directly paralyzed to the ground
Li Shichao glanced at the words on it, was taken aback, didn't dare to delay, and handed it to Tian Ergeng with both hands.
Tian Ergeng took the decree, and when he saw that it was written that the emperor had no way to set up a new emperor, his heart was like ashes, and he knew that his fate had been fixed.
"Governor Tiandu, can you show the lower officials." Hong Chengchou, who was standing on the side, was very curious about what was written on the proclamation, and it turned out that Ueda Ergeng's face had changed so much.
Tian Ergeng's hands trembled, and he handed the proclamation to Hong Chengchou beside him.
When Hong Chengchou saw the content of the proclamation, he actually laughed out loud.
"Yang Huan, Cui Yingyuan, you and other traitors, what else do you have to say, you dare to write such a rebellious word, wait for Ling Chi." Hong Chengchou said viciously.
"Listen to the order, Yang Huan and others are in a high position, but they don't want to serve the country, they have a rebellious heart, they are stolen and arrested, they are arrested and imprisoned, and the emperor is invited to make a holy judgment." Hong Chengchou continued.
The forbidden army stepped forward to grab many officials, Hong Chengchou walked to Yang Huan's side, and said softly: "Lord Yang, the prison is a little cold, I don't know if your body can stand it." ”
Yang Huan stopped talking, and Cui Yingyuan, who was beside him, hurriedly said: "Hong Shilang, we are wronged, this name was forced to be written by Cui Chengxiu's traitor, we are really wronged, you must explain the truth to the emperor." ”
Listening to Cui Yingyuan's ridiculous words, Hong Chengchou laughed out loud.
"Do you think the emperor will believe it? Do you think this is ironclad evidence, can you still get out safely? Don't dream, you are destined to spend your life in prison, and the day you get out of prison will be the day you are beheaded. Take. ”
Dozens of officials were imprisoned overnight, and the next day, when the sun rose and the people got up, they suddenly noticed that the situation in the capital had changed somewhat, and they could see many soldiers patrolling above, and some knowledgeable people pointed in the direction of the Ouchi Imperial Palace and said, "There may be an accident in there." ”
In the Taihe Palace, hundreds of officials saw each other, and many officials found that many familiar faces did not appear, Yang Huan, the core member of the eunuch party, the imperial envoy, did not even attend this court meeting, Wei Zhongxian, who was standing in the Taihe Palace, saw that there were many fewer people loyal to him, and he was a little frightened in his heart, because last night's incident was abrupt, and the Jinyi guard kept it very secretive, so the officials and Wei Zhongxian did not get any news in this regard.
Zhu Youzhen ascended to the dragon seat, and hundreds of officials knelt down to greet him, and shouted three times long live.
Zhu Youzhen's face was very ugly, he held up a piece of music, and said softly: "Yuan Chonghuan led 10,000 Liaodong Iron Army to enter the Shanhaiguan, and today you can reach the Beijing Division at night by galloping all the way. “
Courtiers, look at me, I look at you, I don't know what the situation is, why did you summon Yuan Chonghuan to Beijing?
"In the past few days, I have been very confused, rectifying the three major battalions, embezzling military silver, these things are pressing on my heart one by one, I can't breathe, I don't want Liaodong to change anything, this letter is on the Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan, is to impeach the new Liaodong Governor Sun Chengzong, I don't doubt the use of people, I believe in Sun Chengzong, so I want to transfer Yuan Chonghuan to the Beijing Division, lest they disagree with the military strategy and hurt the friendship between teachers and students." These words are false and true, the false is the chapter, the real is that Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan's military strategy is not compatible, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan both have prestige in Liaodong, if there is a difference of opinion, lest there will be a mutiny in Liaodong This can threaten the security of the entire frontier, in fact, when Sun Chengzong came out of the mountain, Zhu Youzhen was thinking about dropping Yuan Chonghuan into the Beijing Division, on the one hand, because Yuan Chonghuan's trapping strategy would delay the fighter, On the other hand, it is because Zhu Youzhen is really a little relieved that Yuan Chonghuan is a capable person who has been in power for a long time, it is inevitable that some ideas should be born, not to mention that such a thing has happened in the last time and space.
Huang Liji came out and said: "Your Majesty, if you think about the overall situation of Liaodong, you can appoint Yuan Chonghuan to serve in Beijing, but it is absolutely impossible to bring border troops into Beijing." “
