Chapter Thirty-Three: Determined to Fort
On this day, Beijing City has not yet come out of the joy of repelling Houjin, but it has ushered in a blockbuster news, Yuan Chonghuan has deceived the monarch and betrayed the country, and has been suppressed by the Beijing Division, and is confronting the ministers above the court at this time! The people are talking, and the court is even more disturbed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Forbidden City, the Imperial Palace.
As the center of a great empire, the Imperial Palace is still majestic and exposed. Ordinary people will be impressed by it even if they see it, and at this moment in the Imperial Palace, the courtiers are confronting one person, and that person is Yuan Chonghuan, the Liao Governor of the Ming Dynasty.
I saw Emperor Chongzhen sitting on the dragon chair, although he didn't say a word, he showed his majesty, and the majesty of the arrogant imperial ruler was suffocating. The ministers under the stairs were blushing and arguing about something.
"Yuan Chonghuan! Your crime of deceitful and traitorous is unforgivable! A spokesman rebuked. After that, the officials still did not give up.
Yuan Chonghuan looked at these officials and imperial histories, and felt unspeakable helplessness in his heart, thinking that he would fight on the battlefield for the Ming Dynasty and supervise Jiliao for decades, but in exchange for such suspicion and condemnation.
The squire Cai Zhongzheng came out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister found out that Yuan Chonghuan had sold grain to the Mongols, and this is the enemy!" Imperial history Li Banghua came out and said loudly, "Your Majesty, Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, only a few months later, Huang Taiji contributed to Zunhua, Yuan Chonghuan privately negotiated peace, and killed the border general without authorization, this is a capital crime!" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say!"
"Your Majesty, Yuan Chonghuan ......"
The imperial history of the officials is one after another, and some even expose Yuan Chonghuan's old background 20 years ago, and the so-called major crimes mentioned are all crimes that are intended to be added.
Chongzhen was bored of hearing this, and said, "Yuan Chonghuan, do you have anything to say?" ”
Yuan Chonghuan said, "If you want to add sin, there is no excuse." ”
Chongzhen looked at Yuan Chonghuan, indeed, at this time, Liaodong could not do without Yuan Chonghuan, although Yuan Chonghuan was not present in person outside the Guangqu Gate, but Jinyiwei saw it really, and he muttered for a while.
When he was hesitating, Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the Ministry of War, came out and said, "Your Majesty, Yuan Chonghuan can't be killed at this time!" Don't forget that there are still tens of thousands of Guan Ning troops outside the city, and once there is a change, Yuan Chonghuan cannot stop it. ”
The ministers were suddenly silent, and although everyone outside the Guangqu Gate of the Guanning Army did not say anything, they all understood in their hearts. Everyone is not a blind cage, after the Guanning Iron Cavalry War, the Jin army was almost a whole day, fighting for several miles, the artillery roared, and finally defeated the invincible Houjin army.
Once this kind of army has the intention of rebellion, I am afraid that no one can resist it.
After a period of silence, the imperial historian Li Banghua suddenly came out and said, "Your Majesty, at this time, you can summon the emperor back to Beijing, and he will replace Yuan Chonghuan through Liaodong, presumably it will also convince the Guanning army!" ”
Chongzhen understood that although he had the intention to release Yuan Chonghuan, the intention of the cabinet ministers was very clear, that is, Yuan Chonghuan could not be killed now, and detention was inevitable.
This is the cabinet system that Chongzhen hates, and the minister's opinion has to be taken into account even by Chongzhen, who is the emperor. Sighing, Chongzhen got up and said, "Order Sun Chengzong to go to Beijing immediately to take over, and detain Yuan Chonghuan temporarily for interrogation in the future." ”
Wang Chengen understood that these ministers were forcing Chongzhen with the strength of everyone, and seeing that Yuan Chonghuan could not be killed, he would at least be detained. Wang Chenen understood Chongzhen's helplessness, and when he heard what Chongzhen said, he immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Retreat!" ”
Out of the Imperial Palace, Chongzhen walked in the corridor with his hands behind his back and asked, "Chengen, you say, what should I do, why are these civil officials unwilling to let Yuan Chonghuan go?" ”
Wang Chenen stepped back left and right, carefully helped Chongzhen down the steps, and said, "Your Majesty, these officials are asking you to kill Yuan Chonghuan." ”
Chongzhen nodded, and sighed helplessly, in fact, he still felt very good about Yuan Chonghuan, otherwise he would not have been so obvious under the mouths of many ministers to protect Yuan Chonghuan.
Outside the city, Xiao Yi is also idle and bored these days, so he trains for the volunteers every day, and the volunteers also praise Xiao Yi's method for being feasible. Calculated on the day of the defense battle, only Xiao Yi held out for the longest time and suffered the fewest casualties, which is not only related to the desperate fighting of the volunteers and Xiao Yi's training.
"Quick! You, Liu Sheng, you kid is crooked again! Shi Gang saw that Liu Sheng was a little more out again, and he smiled and scolded and stepped forward to kick his ass, but Liu Sheng deftly dodged him.
Liu Sheng smiled and said, "Brother Shi, look." You've been kicking me in the ass, and I've gotten smarter. Shi Gang felt that his face was violated, and scolded, "Oh, you kid, hey, wait, Lao Tzu will not stop if he doesn't kick your ass today!" ”
Liu Sheng ran away in fright, and shouted in his mouth, "Don't don't, Brother Shi, can't I be wrong?" ”
Xiao Yi and Zhong Yiyong laughed when they saw it, and suddenly Huang Yang pushed Xiao Yi, pointing his finger forward, but saw a group of three brocade guards rushing out of the Guangqu Gate to him, and the leader of the person was still dragging a holy decree upwards in his hand.
Xiao Yiyi was overjoyed, it seemed that what he hoped for had finally arrived, and he slapped his big hand, "Stop training, Shi Gang, don't make trouble, you guys come with me!" ”
When Shi Gang heard Xiao Yi's words, he immediately stopped chasing and followed Xiao Yi, not forgetting to glare at Liu Sheng.
When Xiao Yi and a few people entered Lu Xiangsheng's big tent, they saw Lu Xiangsheng, Lu Xiangguan, Lu Xiangjin and all the generals prostrate on the ground, and Xiao Yi and a few people knelt on the ground after entering.
The three high-spirited Jinyi guards glanced at Xiao Yi and a few people, and the first Jinyi guard was able to wander well, and said, "The emperor dictated, Lu Xiangsheng recruited troops into the Weijing Division, guarded the Desheng Gate meritorious, and was promoted to the right political and deputy envoy, responsible for rectifying the military equipment of the three prefectures of Daimyo, Guangping, and Shunde. The rest of the people were all promoted to three levels. ”
Lu Xiangsheng said loudly, "Thank you, Emperor! ”
After Jin Yiwei finished speaking, he went out proudly, Xiao Yi found Lu Xiangsheng and asked, "My lord, I want to take my brothers out to cultivate a fort." ”
Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Xiao Yi in surprise and asked, "Xiao Yi, do you know the difficulties of Zitun Yibao, Guantun is not a good errand. You need to prepare everything yourself. Those who cannot hand over enough grain and rice at the end of the year will be severely punished. ”
Only then did Xiao Yi know that there were so many things to be a tunbao official, but Xiao Yi still nodded and said, "I'm very sure, I'm here to take care of some things." ”
Lu Xiangsheng looked at Xiao Yi and asked, "Xiao Yi, why do you want to be an official?" ”
Xiao Yi turned his mind and said sincerely, "My lord, Taizu has a saying, Guantun can collect land, express the people's strength, and have enough food for the army, so that the country can rely on it." Xiao Yi went to Zitun Yibao to share worries for adults and Daming. ”
Xiao Yi's words just now were said after a long period of careful consideration, in this troubled world, it has always been under the orders of others, and it is not a way to be controlled by others. Only when you have your own territory, your own soldiers, horses, and grain and grass can you have a plan. As for what Xiao Yi has not thought about so much, Xiao Yi only knows that under the nest, there are no eggs.
After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng was a little disappointed and surprised at the same time, originally Lu Xiangsheng wanted to transfer Xiao Yi into his own supervision camp for his own use, it seems that this Xiao Yi is not as it seems on the surface.
Lu Xiangguan was also surprised, Xiao Yi just said this, is it still like an ordinary man's words.
Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Xiao Yi and said helplessly, "Okay, it just so happens that I met Liu Yiming, the head of Datong Mansion, Ningbao, and I will repair a book, you take it, and talk to him when you get there." ”
Xiao Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly bent down to protect his fists, "Thank you, adult!" ”
That night, Xiao also summoned Huang Yang, Shi Gang, Wang Dayong, Shi Lu, and Liu Tong to discuss at night.
Huang Yang saw that Xiao was so excited, and asked, "You can go anywhere, but we are going to Datong?" Isn't it a little too far away? I heard that there were thieves wreaking havoc there. Shi Gang said, "My father and mother have been dead for a long time, you can go anywhere, just follow Brother Xiao Yi." ”
Wang Dayong nodded and said, "I'm the same as Lao Shi, and I go the same everywhere." Liu Tong nodded and said, "I also follow Brother Xiao Yi." ”
Shi Lu finally said slowly, "My Shi Lu has nowhere to go, follow Xiao Yi." By the way, where is Changning Fort? ”
Xiao Yi saw that everyone believed in him so much, and couldn't help but be extremely moved, everyone discussed for a long time, and finally decided to set off tomorrow.
