Chapter 828: Loyal ministers don't care about the two masters
The dozens of ministers who broke through with Zhang Zhiji should be one of the few Zheng ministers who were loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and they learned that the first emperor had been martyred on the fourth day after they came to Tianjin, and everyone was inexplicably sad and indignant.
Ni Yuanlu, Shi Bangzhao, Fan Jingwen and more than a dozen ministers cried heartbreakingly, they actually wanted to hang themselves and martyrdom, no matter whether they really wanted to die or not, they couldn't see death without help!
Of course, these people did not die, and they were persuaded by other people's good words. But they really died in history, and now history is skewed.
Zhang Zhiji took his family, the soldiers of the Beijing camp and the musketeers of the inner army to kill the Beijing division, and these ministers also had the opportunity to lead their henchmen to break through the siege together to defend the prince's righteousness.
Although most of these people are people with high morals, they are also people who cause trouble for Huang Sheng, they have a reputation for being upright, they have the dogmatism of loyal ministers and not doing things, and they have the determination to dare to die, and they are really stinky and hard to deal with.
Cheng Da Da, Zhang Zhiji, and Cao Huachun lobbied the ministers to persuade them to advance, and the vast majority of the Ming Dynasty civil and military forces took advantage of the trend and became active in persuasion.
On the contrary, because Zhang Zhiji was not afraid of life and death, he led the people to fight to the death, and the group of civil officials who brought them out of the capital had the most opposition.
There are nearly 20 opposition ministers headed by Fan Jingwen and Ni Yuanlu, and they keep saying that they are loyal to their ministers and do not care about the two masters, and even if the Son of Heaven is in trouble, they will support the crown prince to ascend the throne.
Cheng Da has no way to argue with these clear streams, because he knows that these people will not govern the country and the world, but they are especially good at fighting, quoting scriptures and classics one by one, foaming at the mouth, and can debate with you without resting for a day, and being tired can exhaust you to death.
These people still regard themselves as loyal ministers who are not afraid of death, all of them are hob meat, coercion and inducement are ineffective against them, and they even hope to be killed to leave a name in history.
They seem to be loyal ministers, but they are actually more terrible than traitors, they don't know how to be flexible, and if the prince who has no military power or financial power succeeds to the throne, wouldn't it be to send the prince on the road of no return? Nanwang Renhou will not do such an unrighteous act, but who can guarantee that the "Nanming" arrogant soldiers will not be cut first and then played?
To solve the bell, it is necessary to tie the bell, and Zhang Zhiji and Cao Huachun will be directly interviewed by the prince, and the three of them will explain the situation in the world to the prince thoroughly.
Zhu Cihong is not a hard bone in history, nor is he a responsible person, he and his two brothers were very well-behaved after being captured by thieves, and they answered all questions in front of Li Zicheng, and finally became the "Dashun" King of Song.
The ambitious prince heard the words of completing the big event, and said on the spot that he had no intention of being the emperor, and just wanted to be a rich idler. Zhang Zhiji immediately expressed his position and guaranteed with his own head that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would get the title if he gave up the throne, and guaranteed that the prince would be rich for a lifetime.
The next story is a bit ridiculous, Zhu Cihong came forward to summon Fan Jingwen, Ni Yuanlu and other ministers who tried their best to get him on the throne, expressing great dissatisfaction with their behavior of chasing ducks on the shelves, and scolded them in public for not knowing the height of the sky, and they would just pay it back if they died, and they would also harm their own lives.
It's really indisputable, Fan Jingwen, Ni Yuanlu and other ministers kowtow to the ground, telling the prince that they are iron-clad loyalty, and they are so talented for the successors of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Cihong couldn't help but smile and asked: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Ming Jingshi has been captured by thieves, which of you can recapture the capital for the Ming Dynasty?" The internal army and the soldiers of the Beijing camp who have been guarding you have not been paid for half a year, can you find a way to get some military salaries? ”
As soon as these words came out, several Zhengchen who were like fighting cocks just now were dumbfounded, they shouted slogans that were okay, and it was difficult for them to put them into action.
Ni Yuanlu said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, how can the ancestral foundation be handed over, even if the Ming Dynasty is unlucky now and can't take back the land of Gyeonggi, and there is no silver to pay the soldiers, but I can ensure that the prince goes to accompany the capital Nanjing in order to make a comeback." ”
At this time, a voice sounded: "Lord Ni, don't be too naïve, Nanjing Wei Guogong, the eunuchs guarding the town, the ministers of the six ministries, etc., have already expressed their stance to invite the king of the south to sit in the world, and the hundreds of thousands of troops under the command of the governor of Caojiang are actually 'Nanming' who are paying, and the soldiers have all returned to His Royal Highness the king of the south." ”
The person who spoke was Xu Wenjue, who was also the prince of Wei, and he made it clear that Nanjing's army had taken refuge in the "Southern Ming", which further strengthened Zhu Cihong's heart not to fight for the throne.
Zhu Cihong said: "Listen, what kind of strength the King of the South is, this king obeys the will of heaven to support the King of the South to succeed to the throne is for the livelihood of the world, and the King of the South is not an outsider, after all, he still has the identity of the master of the Ming Dynasty." ”
Fan Jingwen retorted: "Your Highness's words are wrong, where can the Ming Dynasty be handed over to a foreign surname, the King of the South was originally a minister of the Ming Dynasty, and now he is a Ming concubine, His Royal Highness can borrow troops from the King of the South, borrow money and grain to recapture the capital division and revitalize the Jiangshan Society." ”
It's really standing and talking without backache, Cheng Dada, Xu Wenjue, Cao Huachun, etc., all looked at Fan Jingwen like a fool, and said in his heart: "Is this kid stupid to read!" ”
Even Zhu Cihong felt that this little old man was very stupid and naïve, and knew that if he relied on such a simple and almost naïve person to fight for the country, he would definitely die quickly.
Zhu Cihong decided not to rub his tongue with these Qingliu ministers, he said: "You don't need to say much, this king has made up his mind, and it is also beneficial to the clan to persuade the king of the south to ascend the throne and say that the emperor will benefit the country and the people." ”
Fan Jingwen, Ni Yuanlu and others still wanted to persuade them again, but who knew that Zhu Cihong was not willing to say a word to these rotten Confucians at all, so he walked away directly.
Later, when the prince invited the civil and military generals to meet, no one informed the opposition led by Ni Yuanlu and Fan Jingwen, and the tragic result appeared, and the civil and military officials who betrayed the judgment of Zhu Ming's royal family to invite King Nan to ascend the throne became Zhu Cihong's guests, and the ministers who were still ready to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty were marginalized.
The prince of the Ming Dynasty clarified his position, and personally came forward to contact the civil and military generals who persuaded him, and suddenly increased the number of civil and military generals who supported persuasion, and there were fewer and fewer opponents, and in the end there were only a dozen people left who did not eat the ancients.
Huangjiawan Island is the base of Huang Sheng's business for 20 years, the residents here are not only highly educated, but also respect Huang Sheng like a god, the content of the street talk is that the ministers of the Ming Dynasty tried to persuade the king of the south to become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, hearing such good news, from the officials to the ordinary residents are very excited.
Later, some good deeds found out that there were more than a dozen ministers of the Ming Dynasty who resolutely opposed the king of the south to become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the military and civilian officials of the entire Huangjiawan Island were angry, this is a civilized place with a sound law, no one does anything illegal, but is it not okay to take cold violence?
It didn't take long for Ni Yuanlu, Fan Jingwen and other ministers' families to feel that their masters were too self-sufficient, and some people were already thinking about whether to make a new choice, they had martial arts and thought they were very good at fighting, and there were too many job opportunities for "Nanming", even if they were selected as Xiangyong, they could have a future.
Why do these people have these thoughts? Because the injury was not light.
The people of the entire Huangjiawan Island did not want to see them, and they all glared angrily when they saw them, and finally it developed to the point that the families of Ni Yuanlu, Fan Jingwen and other ministers could not buy anything with silver coins, and the hotel simply did not let them in.
They can't talk to others about reasoning, and even an ordinary man who sells wontons asks them why they oppose Nanwang as the emperor, and then why talk about how Nanwang is good and how the people live under the rule of Nanwang......
