Section 571 Father-son dialogue
The fourth volume of the sharp blade out of the sheath Shenzhou moves
Under the sun, when Chongzhen opened the monocular with a smile, the passionate voice from Zhengyangmen East Street finally came.
The cries of landslides and tsunamis were not directed towards the Forbidden City, nor were they directed at the Supreme Son of Heaven.
After hearing the call, Wang Chengen's whole body trembled in fright, and everyone present had similar expressions.
The crown prince Zhu Cihong was originally sitting, but at this time he also jumped up all of a sudden, with a ghostly expression on his face, and shouted in a childish voice: "Father, is it a mutiny?" ”
"It's not." Emperor Chongzhen was very calm, he tried hard to find the source of the sound with a monocular, and finally found it by him on Zhengyangmen Street.
"It turned out that the people were shouting around Qin Aiqing's convoy to kill the captives, well, it was really unexpected."
Chongzhen let out a sigh of relief, it has been more than two hundred years in the Jingshi, and I am afraid that this is the first time such a thing has happened.
"Slaves deserve death." Wang Chengen also saw that on Zhengyangmen Street, Qin Haoming's motorcade roared, he suddenly knelt on the ground, and pleaded:
"Please punish the emperor, it was the slaves and maids who put these carriages in and caused such a big thing."
Zhu Cihong couldn't help but complain, "The factory minister does have some Meng Lang, then Qin Haoming has always been arrogant and domineering, and his subordinates are also arrogant soldiers, how can he rely on it?" ”
Wang Chengen hurriedly touched his head and did not make a sound.
Chongzhen glanced at the prince expressionlessly, but said to Wang Chengen: "Go with your partner, the things in front of you are popular."
The convoy into the city caused the people to cheer, the people's hearts are available, and the hearts are to the Ming, this is a good thing, and I am very relieved! ”
Wang Chengen lowered his eyebrows and whispered: "Emperor, do you want the slaves and maids to persuade the people to disperse, otherwise you are afraid of provoking a civil uprising?" ”
"How can you do such a thing?" Chongzhen said with a smile on his face: "I was a little surprised just now, but now when I hear this sound of killing, I feel very comforted in my heart.
The Tartars killed our army and the people, there is no humanity, and the people of Beijing hate it to the core, this cry is the voice of the people, and it is also the voice of my heart.
My heart is the heart of heaven, the heart of heaven and the heart of the people are compatible, and there is a lot to be done in Liao, so there is no need to panic.
If we persuade the people to disperse and spread the word, will not we make the hearts of our people lose completely, and we must not do it. ”
Wang Chengen was shocked and kowtowed: "The slave and maid have almost missed the emperor's major event." ”
For Wang Chengen, Chongzhen was quite tolerant and said: "Daban has always been cautious and cautious. Qin Aiqing's matter, although it was an accident, was also a good thing.
When the war on the Liaodong Peninsula was won, I, the emperor, and the princes and ministers went out of the city for ten miles to greet them. ”
Wang Chengen heard Chongzhen's love for Qin Haoming, otherwise, under the national policy of Chongwen and military suppression in the Ming Dynasty, it would be impossible to rely on military merits to have such treatment.
But he didn't say anything, just knocked his head and quickly retreated.
The rest of the people also saw that the emperor and the prince had something to say, and they all retreated far away.
"Emperor!" Chongzhen looked at the Son of Heaven very seriously, and said, "You have a little gaffe today." ”
Prince Zhu Cihong's face slowly turned red, and it was an interesting process for the pointed little face to turn from fair to red.
"Father's forgiveness." Zhu Cihong hesitated and asked, "But shouldn't Erchen blame Wang Changchen?" ”
"No, not for that reason." Chongzhen looked at several prince lecturers in the distance, and said to the prince in harmony with disgust in his eyes:
"The factory minister is a minister and a house slave, what are you afraid of? The emperor will be in charge of the Son of Heaven in the future, will I accuse you because the emperor said a word to the minister? ”
Zhu Cihong took a look, and his childish face showed a thoughtful expression.
"The emperor has a saying, you have to remember, if the king is not secret, he will lose his country, and if the minister is not secret, he will lose his body." Chongzhen carried his hands behind his back and diligently taught:
"If you are the right person, the emperor's dissatisfaction with Qin Aiqing is already very obvious. If it spreads, what do you think Qin Aiqing will think? ”
Zhu Cihong's face turned even redder, his little face was raised, and he waved his little fist and said with a bit of momentum:
"Father forgives the sin, but the son is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, so he shouldn't care about the thoughts of a superintendent?"
"So whose thoughts do you care? Those civil officials in the court? Or the Donglin Party? ”
Chongzhen let out a long sigh, wasn't this also his idea?
If it weren't for Qin Aiqing's efforts to turn the tide and blindly believe in the court's civil servants, what would be the current situation today?
Chongzhen didn't know, and he didn't imagine it. After all, people think on the bright side.
But one thing he can be sure of is that if it weren't for Qin Aiqing, no second army of the Ming Dynasty would dare to set foot on the Liaodong Peninsula, at least, not in the past few years.
Thinking of Qin Aiqing's twists and turns before he sent troops to the Liaodong Peninsula, Chongzhen sighed in his heart, in terms of strategy and overall situation, he was not as good as Qin Aiqing!
He still clearly remembers that Qin Aiqing sent troops to compromise three purposes that day: First, to unite with the Zheng family army to weaken Jiannu's civilian forces, and would rather kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 or more than the enemy's war potential.
Second, take a stronghold on the Liaodong Peninsula and use the sea route to harass the Jiannu at any time and drag them down.
Third, temper the morale of the Ming Dynasty, and then vigorously fight the Northern Expedition, sweep away the Jiannu in one fell swoop, and set the world.
Now, things are moving in the predetermined direction step by step, which shows that Qin Aiqing's plan is feasible.
However, under the teaching of the Confucian students of the Donglin Party in the Prince's Mansion, the emperor was full of misunderstanding and even hatred towards Qin Aiqing.
If this matter is not handled well, it will be a hidden danger for the Ming Dynasty in the future.
"But the Qin Governor acts domineeringly, competing with the people everywhere, and has no court law, and in the long run, it will be difficult to control it, is it possible that the father will sit idly by?"
Zhu Cihong's current concept of good and evil is very simple, and it is basically instilled in him by several emperors. For Qin Haoming, he has not seen or contacted him, but only listened to the people around him talk about it.
But today, my father's perception was obviously different from what he had heard in the past, so he simply asked.
"The country is in trouble, and the poor family thinks of a good wife." Chongzhen smiled tolerantly at the young Zhu Cihong, "No matter how powerful Qin Haoming is, it is mainly in the military merits.
If he had other ideas, he would definitely not offend all the ministers in the court, regardless of party affiliation.
Even if he is a colleague in the local officialdom, he does not form a party for personal gain, and is dedicated to the development of military affairs.
Emperor Shenzong could tolerate Li Chengliang back then, could it be that I couldn't tolerate Qin Aiqing, the talented governor? ”
Zhu Cihong looked puzzled and muttered: "But if you let him go there, you can't rest assured......"
Chongzhen said with a smile: "For powerful courtiers, there must be three. First, it is necessary to restrict. Second, we must take precautions. Third, be gracious ......"
Taking this opportunity, Chongzhen took the opportunity to teach the Son of Heaven the Emperor's Mind Technique. Speaking of the back, he groaned slightly and said with determination:
"Qin Aiqing is different from other ministers, whenever he has a whimsy, he can always prescribe the right medicine.
The emperor is getting older, and if he wants to get in touch with the pulse of governing the country in the future, he might as well have more contact with Qin Aiqing to learn, and he must not believe and listen to it partially, so that he will mislead the country and his own ......"
Zhu Cihong's body was shocked, and the meaning in his father's words was quite rich. However, he was originally a filial character, and bowed down and said: "Thank you for your father's guidance, my sons must remember it." ”
Chongzhen smiled and watched Zhu Cihong retreat, feeling very happy.
Some of the thoughts in my heart gradually took shape in this conversation, and I finally made up my mind.
"I hope I don't get down." After Zhu Cihong stepped back, Chongzhen picked up the binoculars and looked at it for a long time, with a happy and solemn expression on his face.
