The cabinet joined forces with the Military Affairs Department, and Chongzhen was moved, and even Zhu Cihong was not able to resolutely oppose it. If Chongzhen is left with an image that is difficult to control and rude outside, it will be more than worth the loss.

In fact, there have always been a large number of people in Nanjing who have worked hard in this regard, separating father and son, and I don't know how many of them are used for all kinds of tricks. If it weren't for Zhu Cihong being careful in everything, his relationship with Chongzhen might not be as harmonious as it is now!

Fortunately, he was very clear about Chen Hongfan's affairs, and arranged it for the Military Intelligence Department in advance, especially to prevent the north from coming to annihilate the details, and as soon as Tang Qilong arrived, Zhu Cihong and the Military Intelligence Department knew about it.

There is such a thing, and the cabinet and the military affairs department insist on discussing peace, and the leading power naturally falls into the hands of Zhu Cihong.

After entering the palace, Zhu Cihong no longer concealed his opinion, and said to Zuo Maodi: "The matter of negotiating peace is really ridiculous, you see, who are in the mission?" If I negotiate peace like this, I will know everything from the bottom to the bottom, can there be a good result? ”

"The minister deserves to die, too." Zuo Maodi was very uneasy, Chen Hongfan was arrested with Tang Qilong, a surrendered general sneaked back to Qingjiang, Chen Hongfan secretly met with him, what was his intention, naturally there was no need to ask.

No matter how much sophistry there is, nothing has changed from the facts.

At that moment, he honestly admitted his mistake, and only said: "The minister failed to find his traces, please punish His Highness heavily." ”

"It's been very hard for you to go north on this trip." Zhu Cihong smiled faintly and said to Zuo Maodi: "It's still a trivial matter to go through the ups and downs, I'm afraid that after you arrive in Yanjing, Donglu will first woo you and then intimidate you, but they don't know much about our reality and reality, in order not to tear your face with us in advance, most of them will not detain you." ”

"It's the seizure, and the minister only learns from Su Wu."

"Don't worry, I won't tell you to shepherd the sheep."

Zhu Cihong's eyes were sharp, and he looked at Zuo Maodi, and said word by word: "Around October, Xu, Si, Sui, and Huai will make big moves. ”

"What?"

Zuo Maodi was taken aback, and subconsciously stood up.

In any case, he now knows the crown prince's heart very well, and he also admires it very much. The crown prince spent so much effort in the Xu Huai area, of course, not to negotiate peace with the east, but to restore the two rivers and two easts, which is also something that the prince must do in the future.

At this level, just by looking at the arrangement of the prince and the arrangement of the subordinate divisions of the Generalissimo's Mansion, you can know that these things in front of you are by no means for the purpose of discussing peace in the future.

What surprised him was that the prince was not satisfied with leaning on the river on the front line of Huaiyang, and the meaning of his obedience was to take the initiative.

"I think it's ......"

"It's not a big fight, it's Xuzhen, Suizhou, Sizhou, and Sun Chuanting and other departments attacking." Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "You can't let the Dongyu calmly clean up the thieves, you have to make a little mess for them." ”

"I see!" Zuo Maodi was immediately relieved, there were old ministers and brave generals, and they took the initiative on a small scale, thinking that there would be gains in the future.

got up and danced at the moment, and said solemnly: "The minister has nothing else to do, only a hard bone, and if he goes north, he will never disappoint His Highness." ”

In addition to some hypocrites, such as the one who "the water is too cold", there are also a considerable number of wealthy businessmen and gentry in Jiangnan who are squeezed into the Donglin Party Boqing Mingming, in addition, the scholars who really have two shabu-shabu, even if they can't resist to the end, they don't cooperate with the Qing court.

Even if it's old money, after falling first, he regrets it, and he did a lot of small tricks in secret, and he almost couldn't get a good death.

The left Maodi in front of him is indeed a hard bone, which is enough to rest assured.

In the evening, in addition to Chen Hongfan and others, who were about to be sent to Nanjing, the whole delegation also left from Qingjiang and released the ship to the north, where it was expected to go to Jining, Shandong.

At this time, Jining had fallen into the hands of the Qing army, and more than 100 people, after going ashore, were considered to be trapped in the enemy country.

In the twilight, Zhu Cihong also saw the mission leave with his own eyes.

Even with his intervention and many changes, this scene that happened in history still happened before his eyes. This naturally made him very emotional, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, but he didn't know what it was like.

There was only a sense of misalignment between reality and illusion, which simply made him unable to extricate himself.

"Your Highness, it's cool at night, let's go in early."

In the twilight, Chen Mingxia, Zheng Yuanxun and others rushed over, the leaders of the divisions were all civil officials, and they could be regarded as Zhu Cihong's confidants, at this time, seeing the crown prince's gloomy face, everyone didn't know what was going on, so they rushed over together.

"Nothing, nothing."

Zhu Cihong also smiled to himself, and smiled at everyone: "I was thinking about things for a while. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and left, and said loudly: "How many big things, grain and grass, ordnance, and deployment, all of which must be done with great spirit." There are still two months to cheer me up! ”

Behind the crown prince, dozens of Wenchen also followed closely, and among this group of people, Zhu Cihong also tried every possible means to find them, whether it was Zhang Jiayu and Chen Zizhuang in Lingnan, or the famous Zhang Huangyan Zhang Cangshui later, or the shrewd and capable Chen Mingxia, Zheng Yuanxun, or the talented Hou Fangyu, Fang Yizhi and others, any one of them is a famous figure in the history books.

But any of them ended in tragedy.

This group of people, whether they were killed in battle, killed, or secluded in the mountains and forests, or even reluctantly surrendered, in the end, they all ended up depressed and tragic.

Among them, Zheng Yuanxun died the worst, he was a talented son in Yangzhou, the main alliance of the reincarnation, and has always been enthusiastic about local affairs, and Gao Jie burned and looted outside Yangzhou City, and there were signs of entering the city, he went out of the city to mediate, said that Gao Jie only sent a small number of soldiers and horses into the city, who knew that after returning to the city, Yangzhou people thought that he betrayed his father, and everyone was united in their hearts, and Zheng someone, who worked hard to be a mediator, was decisively killed.

And Zhang Huangyan sighed with emotion, Zhang Jiayu is the three loyalists of Lingnan, and they are all characters who have been righteous for thousands of years.

Maybe there are not too many outstanding people in this era, and the names left in the history books are good enough, or maybe Zhu Cihong did it intentionally, what he originally wanted to do was to change his life against the sky, in this case, why not gather these outstanding Chinese sons and daughters together, in their own hands, and also rely on the ability of these outstanding talents to change their lives against the sky, change the fate of Huaxia's sinking, and also change the fate of Chen Mingxia's execution.

changed his life to Zhang Huangyan, Zhang Mingzhen's fate.

Change the fate of the four sons of the Restoration Society.

Change the fate of Lingnan Sanzhong.

Change the fate of civilization destroyed by barbarism, and change the darkness of the next three hundred years!

It will only be a few months before Huaiyang, and God will give him time to prepare and fold, and the turning point has really happened, and the next few months will be the key to the turning point.

Thinking about this section, it is natural to be high-spirited.

The crown prince's expressions were different before and after, and everyone was also looking at them. But at this moment, no one is desperate for the reason, just smiling and following closely.

And in the twilight, there were still one phalanx after another in the camp, with spears and halberds, and in the rumbling drums and guns, they were training hard back and forth.

In the future, the soldiers in the camp are the most critical, and at this moment, it is also the place where Zhu Cihong strides to.

………… The Internal Affairs Bureau of the Military Intelligence Department quickly cracked the case of Chen Hongfan's collaboration with the enemy, and the Information Department of the camp and the sub-divisions of various localities publicized it in the newspapers; as soon as the incident came out, it was delivered to the southeastern half of the country by the information department's fast horses and feet in less than ten years, and in addition to Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, even Fujian and Zhejiang were all newspapers that saw the incident within 10 days.

As soon as the news came out, Chen Hongfan was scolded by everyone, and at the same time, the cabinet and the military affairs department were all embarrassed.

Ma Shiying is okay, anyway, his original name was not loud, and he was once dismissed for corruption, so it doesn't matter what shameless things he does, his face is not big.

He entered Beijing as a local capable minister, and Huang Degong was his backup, so it is conceivable that the imperial court will not embarrass him too much.

Even so, it is inevitable that the last recital will be self-pleasing.

The imperial court now has a system for handling incidents, and this matter must be handed over to the ministry to discuss the crime, and it is not possible to go out of the military affairs department, but to demote one or two level officials, demote ranks, demote ranks, and fines, this whole set of punishment methods for discussing crimes may not be escaped.

As a result, Shi Kefa's prestige plummeted, and his good reputation, which had been less than a few years, was almost wiped out. Among the scholars, suspicion of him is also increasing.

Of course, there is no one who says that he is Qin Hui, but this Shoufu Lord's governing ability, vision and skill, including his power ability, have all been questioned.

In addition, even the Donglin party, who has always been very proud, walked sideways in Nanjing, and did not even pay attention to the relatives of the national princes, was also depressed a lot for a while.

If you make a fool of yourself, you can only hide and hide in the back.

Moreover, the current situation is very different from the first year of Hongguang in history, although there are no more four towns, but Zuo Liangyu is also left in Huguang and cannot move.

King Fu, the emperor Zuo Liangyu, didn't take it seriously, and dared to do things that the court waved a knife and threatened to do things on the side of the Qing monarch, but for Chongzhen, who is now sitting in Nanjing, Zuo Liangyu still didn't dare to stand up and speak.

The largest force of Austrian aid has been lost, Liu Zeqing has been buried for a long time, and the two big aids have disappeared.

In this case, located on the west side of the Hongwu Gate, Shi Kefa's mansion has a lot fewer guests, this mansion was given by Chongzhen last month, in order to make it convenient for the first assistant to go to the court, although Shi Kefa is incorruptible, but the rules and regulations that should be taken are also taken, so the house also raised a hundred people, at this time they are all depressed, although things have passed for more than ten days, Chen Hongfan has also been taken back, at this time he is locked in the prison of the Criminal Department, and now the crowd is angry, it is estimated that it is impossible to escape a life, but the aftermath has not been settled, the entire Prime Minister's Mansion inside and outside, It's silent.

Everyone knows that the prime minister is not in a good mood, and no one wants to ask for trouble at this time.
