Seeing Xu Guangqi's smile, Zhou Zhenglong knew that he couldn't go. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAlthough this old Mr. Xu said it so brightly, but he didn't reveal anything when he started to do things, he was absolutely cunning, no, he was cunning.

Gently opened the wooden box, revealing the contents inside, and the three of them were stunned when they saw this thing. It was a yellow scroll, and the golden silk was glaring in the sun. But what is even more dazzling are the two words on the scroll, Holy Decree!

After seeing this thing, Xu Guangqi's body trembled violently, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Minister Xu Guangqi see my emperor, long live long live long live." ”

After a long time, he slowly stood up, of course, and Zhou Zhenglong kneeling behind him, at this time Zhou Zhenglong's heart finally let go, that is a holy decree! If you go back this time, it will be a great achievement, and maybe you can further become the official of Jinyiwei!

With trembling hands, he took out the holy decree and slowly opened it, but Xu Guangqi set his eyes on Zhou Zhenglong who was standing behind him. Said solemnly: "Zhou Qianhu, this holy decree was brought by you, and besides, as you are the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, it is reasonable for you to read it." ”

Listening to Xu Guangqi's Hu, Zhou Yinglong suddenly shook his head like a rattle, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xu is joking, since Your Majesty is so secretive, it can be seen that the content of the holy decree cannot be passed on. Let's see for myself the old gentleman! I think that's what Your Majesty meant. ”

After a slight groan, Xu Guangqi also figured out this joint, nodded slowly, opened the scroll with a serious face, and looked down.

To Xu Guangqi's disappointment, he didn't say anything about this holy decree, only that he would follow the people into Beijing immediately after receiving the holy decree.

History of the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen Benji.

In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, in July, Emperor Chongzhen secretly summoned Xu Guangqi to Beijing, which was extremely confidential and few people knew about it. After Xu Guangqi entered Beijing, his whereabouts were unknown, and after a long time of appearance, Xu Guangqi did not mention what he had done, and later generations speculated that Xu Guangqi developed weapons for the Ming Dynasty.

While Xu Guangqi was preparing to enter Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen was worried. On the second day after Emperor Chongzhen left the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials, he received the resignation of Zhou Yingqiu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials.

After pondering for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen was ready to promise him, first take over the power, and then calculate, this is also the old method adopted by Emperor Chongzhen in the previous life. The next thing is to appoint a new minister, but at this time Emperor Chongzhen did not have a suitable candidate in his heart, and in the early dynasty of this day, Emperor Chongzhen threw this question to the ministers.

"If there is something to do, it will be played early, and there will be nothing to retreat."

With Wang Chengen's familiar shout, a new day began again.

"Zhou Yingqiu, the secretary of the ministry, handed me his resignation yesterday, although I was reluctant in my heart, but I pity him for his old age and frailty, so I can only approve it. But the ministry can't be without the person in charge, I don't know if there is a suitable candidate for Aiqing? "As soon as he came to the court, Emperor Chongzhen threw this question out to see what kind of rhetoric my ministers would have.

This can also be regarded as a test for Emperor Chongzhen to see what the struggle between these ministers is like.

After listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words, there was a brief silence below, and many ministers suddenly realized that this matter was not so simple. Many people have already gotten the news that Emperor Chongzhen went to the ministry two days ago, and it has only been two days since the secretary of the ministry was in office.

The ministers had different ideas, and many people were thinking that this was Emperor Chongzhen's preparation to deal with the eunuchs. Now that Wei Zhongxian is under house arrest, the eunuchs have no leader, and the people are panicking.

But none of that matters, but for these people, what matters is who takes over.

The members of the various parties have set their sights on their respective leaders, and the Qizhejiang Chu Party is naturally the first auxiliary minister Shi Fenglai at this time. Zhou Yingqiu was originally a member of the Chu Party, and if he could not let the people of the Chu Party succeed him this time, it would undoubtedly be a great loss for them.

Compared with the apprehension in the heart of the eunuch party, the people of the Donglin Party are secretly excited, if they can win the official book this time, then the Donglin Party can do more.

The mere fact that the officials of the Donglin Party can be arranged more conveniently makes these bigwigs excited. At this time, their eyes fell on Liu Dayou, who was given by the military department, there were not many Donglin party members in the court, and there were few official positions in the court, and now Han Kuang had faintly become the leader of the Donglin Party in the court.

Watching the ministers below exchange glances with each other, Emperor Chongzhen's heart was a lament, the first thing these people thought of was not to be virtuous, but to fight for the greatest interests of their party. Such disregard for national interests can be said to be the sorrow of the Ming Dynasty, the sorrow of an era, the sorrow of the Chinese nation, and the sorrow of the entire history.

"The minister has his own music." Just when Emperor Chongzhen was thinking wildly, a person suddenly stood up, took a look and found that he was not familiar, and it seemed that he was not a person in a key position. At the beginning of the party struggle in the Ming Dynasty, it was all inconsequential people who came on the field, to test the emperor's reaction, if the emperor did not have any radical reaction, then it was the time to press it vigorously.

Glancing back at Wang Chengen, Wang Chengen naturally understood what Emperor Chongzhen meant, and whispered in Emperor Chongzhen's ear: "This is Chen Qi in the Huke matter, and he is a member of the Donglin Party. ”

Seeing the following situation, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly had an idea, and it seemed that he should establish a party database. However, the interests of parties are complex, and it is difficult to determine which party a person belongs to.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded expressionlessly, and said lightly: "Since Chen Aiqing has something to say, then say it!" Da Ming did not block the way of speech. ”

"Chen Baoju Qian Longxi, the right attendant of the former Nanjing Officials." Chen Qi saw that Emperor Chongzhen let him speak, and couldn't help but say loudly.

Qian Longxi thought that he was a very famous one in the Donglin Party, after the Donglin Party was purged from the court, the court really needed a high-ranking and powerful person in the Donglin Party, and the official department was definitely the best choice.

Emperor Chongzhen touched his chin and recalled the name Qian Longxi, as if the case of liquidating the eunuch party in history was interrogated by Qian Longxi.

At that time, Li Biao was the first assistant, Qian Longxi and Liu Hongxun worked together as assistants, and most of the trials of Wei Zhongxian's rebellion case were presided over by him, and the traitors hated him to the core.

This is not the reason why Emperor Chongzhen remembered Qian Longxi, the real reason is that Qian Longxi was involved with a more famous minister, this person is Yuan Chonghuan. Qian Longxi strongly recommended Yuan Chonghuan as the commander of the Northeast Guanning Army to consolidate the border defense. When Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, he was impeached for conspiring with Yuan Chonghuan to overstep his authority and kill ministers without permission.

After Yuan Chonghuan was killed, Qian Longxi was implicated in the Yuan case and was sentenced to death, and some ministers tried their best to intercede with Emperor Chongzhen to avoid the death penalty, but he was also imprisoned.

As a result, Qian Longxi was imprisoned for a long time, and was later assigned to guard Dinghaiwei, and when King Fu returned to the government, he died of illness soon after.

This is also a very miserable one, Emperor Chongzhen glanced at Chen Qi, who was holding Qian Longxi, and thought about it but still couldn't give this position to Qian Longxi, even if he really wanted to enable some people from the Donglin Party, the position of the Ministry of Rites could not be given to him.

Looking at Emperor Chongzhen's expressionless appearance, the ministers below didn't know what the emperor was thinking, and they didn't speak. There were several eunuch ministers who were eager to try, but they were all signaled by Shi Fenglai not to stand up.

This old minister of the Three Dynasties has risen and fallen countless times, but he is very incomprehensible to this young emperor. Although this emperor has just ascended the throne, his heart is calm and terrifying. Before ascending the throne, he looked humble and polite, and after ascending the throne, he directly attacked Wei Zhongxian, and his methods can be described as old and spicy.

I thought that Emperor Chongzhen would make some big moves after detaining Wei Zhongxian, but I didn't expect it to be very calm, which made Shi Fenglai think more and more that this emperor was extraordinary. Since Emperor Chongzhen is ready to drive Zhou Yingqiu home, he must have his own ideas, and it is better to wait and see at this time.

There is another thing that makes Shi Fenglai smell a little weird, that is, Dongchang and Jinyiwei, the two yamen who were originally silent are now extremely busy. Although there is no news coming out, and I don't know what these people are busy with, Shi Fenglai believes that it must be inseparable from this Emperor Chongzhen.

Tian Ergeng is Wei Zhongxian's confidant, and he sent people to touch the news a few times, but Tian Ergeng rejected them all.

Shi Fenglai knew that the reason must be Emperor Chongzhen, but Shi Fenglai didn't know where it was. Now in this stormy time, Shi Fenglai is also a little at a loss, the key is that he can't figure out what Emperor Chongzhen thinks.

At this time, the Qianqing Palace was very quiet, all the ministers did not speak, and Chen Qi, who was kneeling on the ground, also broke out in a cold sweat at this time. At this time, everyone's attention was focused on Emperor Chongzhen, and they were all thinking about what this emperor was thinking.

Looking at the ministers below, Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly, this should be rare in the history of the Ming Dynasty, sighed softly, Emperor Chongzhen said slowly: "Since you Aiqing has no other candidates, I will give everyone time to go back and discuss, the official position of the Ministry of Rites is not trivial, and it cannot be decided hastily." ”

In the moment just now, Emperor Chongzhen made a decision not to admit the official department for the time being.

Use this position to disturb the minister's heart, let them mess up, and only then will he have a chance. Also divert the attention of the ministers, lest they stare at Wei Zhongxian all day long, Emperor Chongzhen does not want to deal with Wei Zhongxian for the time being, and the ministers stare at it all day long, so that Emperor Chongzhen will not get tired of it.

After retiring from the dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen stretched his waist and was in a good mood.
