In the late May of the third year of Chongzhen, at the turn of spring and summer with a sunny and pleasant climate, there were still a few holy decrees sent from the Beijing Military Aircraft Department and the cabinet to all parts of the Ming Dynasty, and there were still a few of them, which were taken south by the people and horses of Jinyiwei and turned to the southwest.

After quelling the Hao'an Rebellion, Hou Liangzhu, the Sichuan commander-in-chief who was named Dingyibo because of his department's merit in killing An Bangyan, was dismissed from his post as the commander-in-chief of Sichuan this time.

The new position granted to him by Emperor Chongzhen was to go north to Beijing and serve as the left governor of the Inner Guard Army Governor's Mansion in the New Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.

At this time, Dingyi Bohou Liangzhu himself, together with Qin Liangyu, the only female marquis of the Manchu Dynasty, led the Sichuan officials and soldiers under their respective commands, and watched the Ordos tribes from the north to the south in Baoning Mansion, Long'an Mansion, Songpanwei and other places in northern Sichuan.

After nearly two months of trekking through mountains and rivers, Jiang Dejing, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Fang Yuegong and Xue Guoguan, two officials of the household department and the criminal department who accompanied him as deputies, had already taken the lead in passing through this place, and with the will of the imperial court, they had set a route with the governors and governors in various places along the way.

Jiang Dejing, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, served as the minister of the Qincha for this entry into Tibet, and Fang Yuegong, who was born in the head of the household department, and Xue Guoguan, who was born in the criminal department, both gave the two of them, in addition to assisting Jiang Dejing in handling the affairs of the Ordos Mongolian entry into Tibet, he also took over the Qincha who patrolled the tea imperial history left and right, and these Donglin figures or suspected Donglin figures were the leaders of the Qingliu in the DPRK and China, at least within a year or two, they could not return to the Beijing court.

Although there are twists and turns in their careers, they are all tossed between the north and south of Beijing, and they rarely go deep into the bottom and remote places of the Ming Dynasty in this era.

This kind of life experience makes it difficult for them to think about it and only sit and talk about it, because they have not suffered any hardships, and they do not know what military and civilian practice is.

Because of this, after this trip, several people were miserable, in addition to the long journey and fatigue, they also had to figure out everything.

Thanks to the local governments along the way in Guanzhong and Hanzhong, because they were afraid of making trouble and losing their heads, they considered and arranged very well for them, which saved them I don't know how much worry.

They were followed by tens of thousands of men, women, and children from the Ordos tribe led by the Usutu Buddha Samteng Osr and his retinue lamas.

According to the route agreed in advance by Jiang Dejing, the minister of the Imperial Mission, the Wusutu living Buddha Samteng Osir, and Liu Zhaoji, who escorted this huge contingent of immigrants to the south and west, this team of Ordos immigrants should turn to the west after arriving in Hanzhong Prefecture.

They will enter the Guangyuan area of Baoning Prefecture in northern Sichuan from Ningqiang Prefecture in Hanzhong Province (later Ningqiang County), and after a short rest, they will travel west from Guangyuan and Lizhouwei to Long'an Province in northern Sichuan, and then continue west along the river valleys and paths in the mountains and mountains to enter Songpanwei.

It was necessary to wait until the end of June, when this army of immigrants drove the sheep through their northern Sichuan defense area and entered the jurisdiction of Songpanwei, Hou Liangzhu, Qin Liangyu and other Sichuan soldiers could be regarded as completing the errand at hand.

Of course, at that time, Hou Liangzhu should also receive the will of the imperial court, and then set off for the north.

The candidate to replace Dingyi Bohou Liangzhu as the chief military officer of Sichuan is Deng Xi, the deputy chief soldier of Sichuan who was previously stationed in eastern Sichuan.

Similarly, among this group of Jinyi Wei envoys who left Beijing and rushed to the southwest, there was also a team of people who went to Chengdu to deliver the message.

This time, in the major adjustment of the reorganization of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, Yin Tonggao, who had been the governor of Sichuan for a long time, was proposed by the emperor to serve as the left protector of the Governor's Mansion of the Internal Guard.

This is not that this Yin Tonggao is very good in the process of quelling the Lu'an Rebellion, on the contrary, this Yin Tonggao's reputation in history is not good.

Now the reason why Emperor Chongzhen wants to put forward such a figure and let him serve as the left protector of the internal guard army is because this person has been in the southwest far away from the court and has little to do with the Donglin party in the court, and secondly, to let him leave office, but also to make room for the Donglin bigwigs in the court.

Now Emperor Chongzhen has always wanted to give these figures above the court a big change.

But all the characters who came to power in the short first year of Taichang and the subsequent Apocalypse years, whether they are Donglin or not, must be gradually cleared out.

Those who can only engage in party strife and infighting should of course be dismissed from their posts or exiled from the army.

And those who are still upright and able to do something will give them a chance to go to the local area and see what is going on.

This time, Yin Tonggao, the governor of Sichuan, was transferred out of Sichuan and made him the left protector of the Governor's Mansion of the Internal Guard, and the person who succeeded him was Qian Longxi, the left attendant of the Ministry of Works, nominated by Emperor Chongzhen.

Now that Emperor Chongzhen is from later generations, of course he has a list in his heart, who can use and who can't, who can be reused, and who can't.

Since the first year of Chongzhen, those Donglin Party bigwigs in the DPRK and China, such as Gao Hongtu, Zheng Sanjun, Qian Xiangkun, Qian Shisheng, Zhang Yandeng, Hui Shiyang, Hou Sui, and Qian Qianyi, who was dismissed from office and at home, have lost their influence.

In addition to these front-end bigwigs, figures with relatively low qualifications and prestige, such as Sun Juxiang, Sun Dingxiang, He Ruzhong, Jiang Dejing, Zhang Shenyan, Qu Shiyun, Wei Chengrun, etc., and even the future rising stars of the Donglin Party who are still playing small roles, such as Shi Kefa, Zhang Pu, Xia Yunyi, Wu Weiye, etc., have also been sent away from the center of the Beijing Imperial Court by the current Emperor Chongzhen for various reasons and in various ways.

After three consecutive years of gradual blood change, the party struggle between the court and the central government is basically controlled within the acceptable range of Emperor Chongzhen.

Those who used to boast of Donglin in the past, but now, they only dare to boast of being clear, and they no longer dare to casually attack others as the remnants of the eunuch party.

It is not possible to take tough measures similar to those who are very famous in the officialdom, the Donglin Party members who are very influential in public opinion, or the followers of the Donglin bigwigs.

The kind of bloody or high-pressure methods of physical extermination will only backfire when used on such people.

These people like the Donglin Party members are mainly concentrated in the Inspectorate, the Liuke Corridor, the Zhan Shifu, the Hanlin Academy, and other places where they have no real power, and mainly rely on playing tricks to live in mixed rice and eating.

Because these people have no real power in their hands, they often just talk about it, impeach one today and impeach that tomorrow, but they themselves do not have many opportunities for corruption.

Because of this, they don't have much evidence of crimes, so they are not afraid of engaging in party disputes in the court, and at the same time, they will have some reputation for being honest.

If the emperor had to clean them up, in the end, he could only take the form of an edict, that is, after all, he would have to take the path that the Emperor of the Apocalypse had to reuse Wei Zhongxian.

But that road has proved to be a lose-lose road, although it bloodily slaughtered a large number of figures of the Donglin Party, but it completely tore face, and also made his reputation stink, and in the end had to be subject to eunuchs.

At the same time, the party struggle in the court continued, and the entire court was always in turmoil, and the internal friction was too serious, and it was divided into two factions and attacked each other on all major matters of the rise and fall of the country.

Now this Emperor Chongzhen also hates the Donglin Party, and hates the well-known remarks of those suspected Donglin Party figures who sit and talk about the Tao, but he can no longer follow the old path of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

In fact, in an imperial era like the last years of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the emperor himself had the backbone and his mind was not confused, all other people's claims were just floating clouds in the final analysis.

Originally, the reason why Emperor Chongzhen listened to this today, that tomorrow, and even changed the order was because he had an ambition to revive the Ming Dynasty, but he did not have his own more mature and stable, consistent thinking, and no backbone.

Now this Emperor Chongzhen is different, since he understood his identity, he made up his mind to remove all kinds of people from the court, except for a few who he thought could be used, and all other kinds of people in the court, slowly and step by step, out of the court.

In place of these people, it is those who have been far away from the court and have steadily controlled and handled actual military and political affairs at the local level.

Emperor Chongzhen thought so, and has always done so, and drove these figures who simply relied on prestige or good reputation to exert pressure on the government out of the court step by step.

Now Qian Longxi was sent by the emperor to Sichuan, which was very far away from Beijing in this era, and succeeded Yin Tonggao as the governor of Sichuan, which is part of this plan that has been implemented.

The position of governor seems to have more real power, how to say that he is also a feudal official, and he has much more real power than the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, it seems that this is a promotion and a good thing.

But when it comes to influence, especially the influence of the court, the governor of a remote and remote place is not comparable to the Zuo Shilang who is in the court.

In particular, Qian Longxi, a person who has been arranged to leave the Jingshi court one by one, has begun to faintly become the leader of the current Qingliu in the court.

For such a person, it is much better to let him go to a distant province like Sichuan and serve as a governor with some real power than to let him stay in the court, although he does not have much real power, but he can instigate a group of stunned young civil officials who claim to be clear and clear to discuss politics every day.

Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts naturally can't be explained to the cabinet ministers or officials.

But these thoughts of his were seen through by people like Niu Juming, the staff of the Ministry of War, so there was no need for the emperor to say it, and someone helped the emperor to operate.
