Chapter 735: Thanksgiving
"Good! Good! Good! Zhu Hongsan stood up happily and shouted three hellos in a row, Qu Shiyun's surrender represented that he officially had the upper hand in the Shiren group, and Zhu Youlang, the king of Gui who was driven to Burma, did not have any competitive advantage with himself except in terms of blood.
Zhu Hongsan said to Li Chengen: "Lao Li, you go to the edict to pass the decree, and reinstate Qu Shiyun as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Tongchang as a bachelor of Hanlin, and tell them that this is only a temporary official position, and there will be reuse in the future!" ”
Li Chengen got Zhu Hongsan's holy decree and took people to the edict to pass the decree.
Zhu Hongsan said to Qian Lide, who was kneeling on the ground: "Okay! Old Qian, you have made a great contribution to me, and it was the two people who were persuaded by your Jinyiwei official? I want to reward him! ”
"Back to Your Majesty, it is the Thousand Households Wang Dan of the Imperial Prison, after more than two years of his persuasion, Qu Shiyun and Zhang Tongchang repented!"
"Wang Dan? But Wang Xian's younger brother? ”
Listening to Wang Dan, who was still remembered by the emperor, Qian Lide hurriedly said: "Yes, yes! His Majesty has a good memory, and he is Wang Xian's younger brother. Wang Dan and Wang Xian joined the army together, but Wang Dan was young at the time, so he was not selected by the army. ”
After Qian Lide's reminder, Zhu Hongsan finally remembered that Wang Dan: "Okay, old money, you have cultivated well!" In this way, Feng Wang Dan is the affairs of Jinyiwei, as for what work to arrange, you Jinyiwei will decide it yourself! ”
Qian Lide was overjoyed when he heard the emperor say this, Jinyiwei commanded the servants but different pacification envoys, Jinyiwei had one commander, two commanders, two commanders, four pacification envoys, and fourteen people from 14 thousand households. In addition to the commander being in charge of the overall work, the two Tongzhi are respectively responsible for the North and South Towns, and the two commanders are the deputies of the Tongzhi, and they have a lot of power in their hands. And the pacification envoy is much worse, although on the surface of the management of 14 thousands of households, but everyone knows that the person in charge of a unit is the number one, and the right of the servant as the deputy of the same knowledge is already much smaller, and the pacification envoy is the deputy of the deputy, what real power do you say. So the soothing makes it a bit like an epididymis, which looks like a thing, but the fart doesn't need to be topped.
Therefore, in addition to the two acquaintances in Jinyiwei, there are two servants who have real power in their hands, that Wang Dan is in Nanzhen Fusi, and he has become Zhao Mengguan's deputy when he is promoted to a servant, which is a nail in Zhao Meng's concern, and Qian Lide is naturally happy.
In the past few years, Zhao Mengguan has cleaned up Qian Lide enough, because Zhao Mengguan is the same acquaintance who was canonized by the emperor himself, and let him be in charge of the Nanzhen Fusi, so Zhao Mengguan is very tidy up the Huguang people who are attached to Qian Lide by the party, and Qian Lide has the mind to kill Zhao Mengguan. Now that he has the emperor's order, he can install a deputy under Zhao Mengguan, so that he will have the opportunity to clean up Zhao Mengguan in the future.
Zhu Hongsan saw Li Chengen go out to deliver the decree, and asked Qian Lide, who was kneeling on the ground: "Old Qian, do you have any secret agents in your Jinyi Guard faction over there in Yunnan?" ”
Qian Lide, as the oldest confidant who followed Zhu Hongsan, of course knew that the emperor was not asking about the news of the Yongli regime in Yunnan, but was not worried about Li Chengdong's 50,000 horses. In fact, Zhu Hongsan made one more move, although Li Chengdong's 50,000 horses did not belong to Zhu Hongsan's lineage, but all the middle-level officers of the battalion and regiment were from the teaching regiment, and in addition, the supply of Yunnan's mountains and rivers was difficult, and all the army's supplies had to rely on Liangguang, and Li Chengdong's chances of rebellion were very small.
"Back to Your Majesty, there are Jinyi Guard's guards around Li Chengdong, and other senior generals also have Jinyi Guard's people around them, and all the generals' families are in Beijing, so there shouldn't be any big problem!"
Hearing Qian Lide say this, Zhu Hongsan nodded: "What about Jin Daoming's side?" ”
"Jin Daoming is the same, his personal soldier captain is our person, please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
"Well, Jin Daoming must be closely monitored, and if there is any abnormal movement, he will be killed immediately, do you know?"
Qian Lide's heart moved when he heard the emperor say this, why did the emperor mention Jin Daoming specifically today? He is just a gentleman, and the most threatening is Li Chengdong. But Qian Lide reacted after thinking about it again, and now there are rumors in Beijing that the emperor is having an affair with Jin Daoming's wife Ma Ruyun, it seems that the emperor doesn't want Jin Daoming to come back alive and wants to occupy Ma Ruyun for a long time.
Qian Lide, who understood it, hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the ministers will send more people, as long as Jin Daoming has any changes, he must not be allowed to return to Beijing alive!" ”
Zhu Hongsan was happy to see Qian Lide comprehend his meaning, and waved his hand to let Qian Lide go down. Zhu Hongsan is now the emperor after all, and this kind of behavior of forcibly seizing the wives of his subordinates is really good to say, so it is better to do it quietly.
At the same time that Zhu Hongsan hinted that Qian Lide killed Jin Daoming, Li Chengen had already come to the edict with the holy decree.
The edict prison is under the control of Jinyi Wei, but because Dongchang does not have its own prison, Dongchang often uses the edict prison to try the prisoners in their hands.
"Father-in-law Li, I didn't know that Father-in-law Li was coming, and the lower official was polite!" Wang Dan knew that these eunuchs were missing a part of their bodies, and they were all psychopathic, so it was better not to provoke them or not to provoke them.
Li Chengen smiled and said, "Wang Qianhu, our family congratulates you!" Just now in the palace, your commander praised you a lot, and the emperor was happy to promote you to the commander, which is second only to the same official! ”
Wang Dan originally thought that the credit was nothing to do with himself, but now he was overjoyed when he heard that the emperor had promoted himself to command.
"Thank you, Gonggong Li! Grandpa Li, please come in and drink some tea! ”
"Well, that's it! Our family didn't come to you to drink tea, our family has a holy body, and we want to go in and read the holy decree to Qu Shiyun and Zhang Tongchang! Wang Qianhu leads the way! ”
Li Chengen became an angel official representing the emperor with a holy decree, Wang Dan didn't dare to laugh, and hurriedly led the way into the Tianzi cell of the Imperial Prison.
Li Chengen came to Qu Shiyun's cell, looked at the prisoner Qu Shiyun sitting there, and said, "It's Lord Qu Shiyun inside?" ”
Since Qu Shiyun was ready to submit, he didn't put on that stinky face, stood up and bowed down and said, "It's the criminal minister Qu Shiyun!" ”
Li Chengen looked at the cell next to him and asked, "Is it Lord Zhang Tongchang on the side?" ”
Zhang Tongchang also stood up and bowed down and replied: "It is the criminal minister Zhang Tongchang!" ”
Li Chengen nodded, opened the holy decree and read: "Fengtian carrier, emperor restriction!" Qu Shiyun and Zhang Tongchang did not respect the edict of Taizu and supported Gui Shun Zhu Youlang, which should have been sentenced to the crime of great disrespect, but God has the virtue of a good life, and I have the heart of loving talents, and at the same time, the two of you can repent and sever relations with Gui Shun! In my heart, I am not guilty of the past, and now I am Fu Qu Shiyun as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Tongchang as a bachelor of Hanlin! Chin this! ”
After Li Chengen finished reading the holy decree, he smiled at the two of them: "Congratulations to the two adults, take the decree!" ”
Now that Zhu Hongsan has occupied half of the country, he no longer has to tolerate these stinky old nine like before, so this holy decree is very polite. But Qu Shiyun can't help it, since he is ready to take refuge, he has become Zhu Hongsan's courtier, thunder, rain and dew are all heavenly graces, so Qu Shiyun and Zhang Tong knelt down and said long live to receive the order!
Li Chengen saw the two of them receiving the order, and said to Wang Dan beside him: "Wang Qianhu, borrow a courtyard from your edict to freshen up the two adults, and our family will lead the two adults into the palace to thank you for a while!" ”
Wang Dan naturally agreed, took people to clean up his small courtyard, and sent four cell heads to serve Qu Shiyun and Zhang Tongchang to freshen up.
After grooming, Qu Shiyun and the others changed into the official clothes brought by Li Chengen, and sat in a sedan chair into the palace to meet Emperor Zhu Hongsan.
After entering the Fengtian Gate, Qu Shiyun saw that the Fengtian Temple still looked unrepaired, and hurriedly asked, "Gonggong Li, why is the Fengtian Temple still being repaired?" How is it the same as seven years ago? ”
Fengtian Hall and Huagai Hall were burned clean by a fire during the Chenghua years, Hongguang was called emperor in Nanjing, originally made more than 100,000 taels of silver to prepare for repair, but who knew that a year later the Manchu Qing Dynasty occupied Nanjing, and the prepared stone and wood were taken by the Manchu Qing garrison Eight Banners to repair their own yard.
After Zhu Hongsan entered Nanjing, he had no money to repair the three major halls, so the Fengtian Hall and the Huagai Hall were still the same as when Qu Shiyun left Beijing. When Qu Shiyun was in Guangxi, he heard that Zhu Hongsan, the king of Chu, was arrogant and extravagant, and liked strange and obscene things, thinking that such a faint monarch would definitely build a lot of construction after occupying Nanjing. Now seeing that Zhu Hongsan has not even renovated the three major halls, he can't help but have a slight change in his opinion of the legendary bastard emperor Zhu Hongsan.
"Lord Qu doesn't know, the emperor doesn't like a luxurious life, when he was in Guangzhou, he repeatedly ordered to reduce the number of people in the palace, and now in such a big imperial city, there are only more than 1,000 eunuchs and less than 500 palace maids, so many palaces are idle!"
Qu Shiyun knew that there were 100,000 eunuchs in the palace during the Wanli period, that is, the most diligent and thrifty emperor Chongzhen, and there were more than 30,000 eunuchs in the palace. I didn't expect Emperor Shenwu to be so self-disciplined, probably because he had too many hard days when he was a child, and he was not suitable for the emperor, Qu Shiyun slandered in his heart.
The Wenhua Hall was not far from Fengtianmen, and the three of them soon came to the Wenhua Palace, and Li Chengen took the two of them into the Wenhua Hall after the ceremony.
Zhu Hongsan looked at the little old man kneeling in front of him, Qu Shiyun has been in prison for more than two years, although he has lost a lot of weight, but his complexion is good, at least Xie En's words just now are very loud.
"Mr. Qu, Zhang Aiqing, get up! It's been a long time! ”
Qu Shiyun hurriedly kowtowed again, and said: "How dare you, Qu Shiyun is fighting against the heavenly soldiers in Guangxi, and he deserves to be imprisoned in the past few years!" ”
Zhu Hongsan saw that Qu Shiyun was soft, and he was very happy in his heart, the bigger the official, the more he loved his face, and now Qu Shiyun Ken said this is a sign of sincere obedience.
"Okay, Mr. Qu will temporarily succumb to the position of waiter, I will give you a month off, and go back to Changshu's hometown to see your family first! Zhang Aiqing can also go back to Huguang's hometown to see, now the entire Huguang has settled down, and the Yangtze River is very peaceful! March next year is the time for my relatives to march, and then there will be another important use for the two Aiqing! ”
Qu Shiyun and Zhang Tongchang also wanted to go back to their hometown to have a look, and when they heard the emperor say this, they quickly bowed down and thanked him.
