After a long time, Chongzhen put down the notebook in his hand and exclaimed: "The officers and soldiers of the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Battalion can transfer all the warships of the Dengzhou Naval Division to avoid falling into the hands of the chaotic army when the chaotic troops are attacking the city, which is really commendable and should be rewarded." ”
Sun Yuanhua's dispatch is mentioned in the Songjie document, but Chongzhen ignores it, showing that he has a deep dislike for him.
Browsing the chapter again, he said to Wang Chengen beside him: "Is this Feng Jian, the garrison officer of the flood camp in Pingdu Prefecture, the one who was specially rewarded by the head of the year last year?" ”
Wang Chengen has also accepted a bribe of 10,000 taels of silver from Feng Jian through Gao Bing, the money is moving, in his eyes, it is the same for whoever is in charge of the Dengzhou Sailor, the key is whether it can bring benefits to himself, so he readily accepts this high bribe of 10,000 taels of silver, and is also ready to promote Feng Jian to take charge of the Dengzhou Navy.
Wang Chengen also knew that this Pingdu garrison official had a lot of money, and most of them would bribe some heavyweights in order to reduce the opposition in the court, so his mind was the same as Wen Tiren, and he deliberately delayed it so that the people from Pingdu would have enough time to buy the minister.
Seeing that the emperor suddenly asked, he hurriedly leaned over and said: "Long live the wisdom of the torch, it is the Pingdu Prefecture flood camp garrison from last year." Long live the slave and maid, my Dengzhou sailor was transferred to a safe place when the rebels captured Dengzhou, and it was unscathed, so that the Kong Youde rebels who were in Dengzhou cut off the way to escape at sea. Just wait for my heavenly soldiers to besiege Dengzhou City, and the chaos is a dead end. ”
There is no word of praise for Feng Jian in Wang Chengen's words, but it can make people think everywhere who cut off Kong Youde's chaotic retreat. turned Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers into turtles in the urn, and people have to admire these Wang Chengen's sophistication and cleverness.
Chongzhen smiled for the first time in a long time. smiled happily: "Yes, Pingdu Zhizhou Chen is concerned about the imperial court. Everything was carefully planned and able to make correct judgments, and finally when Kong Youde's rebellious troops captured Dengzhou City, he ordered Feng Jian to transfer all the warships of the Dengzhou Naval Division, which is very commendable. And Feng Jian, the garrison of the flood camp in Pingdu Prefecture, was even more willing to take risks, and when the chaos came, he broke the ice and transferred the naval warships, which was particularly miraculous. ”
Chongzhen took a breath and said: "Wang Chengen will read out the document in public, and let the ministers listen to the good news, and there is no need to discuss the reward." Today's court meeting will be decided, and then it will be handed over to the cabinet to be awarded. ”
It is relatively rare not to submit to the ministry for discussion, but to directly promote the call, which shows Chongzhen's joy when he hears this victory.
When Wang Chengen's slightly sharp voice stopped, Chongzhen glanced at the many ministers in the Wenhua Palace, and said slowly: "Pingdu's good news said that the Dengzhou Navy Division's warship has been safely transferred to a newly built military port. What do you think? ”
Liang Tingdong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, reported on the class: "Your Majesty, Dengzhou City was captured by Kong Youde's rebels, and the Dengzhou Navy Division escaped safely, which is a great luck. As long as the sailor warship is not damaged. Then my Denglai coastal deterrence of Liaodong Jiannu has always existed, only after the imperial army exterminated Kong Youde's rebellious army, the Dengzhou Navy Division can return to the previous system. Continue to garrison Denglai Water City. ”
Zhou Yanru also learned the content of this report document and bribed 10,000 taels of silver one day in advance, and it was mentioned in the document that Sun Yuanhua had the merit of promotion. This is very beneficial to Sun Yuanhua, who is deeply trapped in the whirlpool of right and wrong, and the emperor can use this credit to exonerate when he investigates the guilt. Therefore, he gladly accepted the 10,000 taels of silver sent by Feng Jian, the garrison of the flood camp in Pingdu Prefecture.
The emperor only talked about the merits of Chen Suowen and Feng Jian just now, but did not mention the merits of Sun Yuanhua's promotion, and Zhou Yanru's heart sank.
It can be seen from this that the emperor's attitude, no matter how great Sun Yuanhua's meritorious service is, he will not escape the charge of being the first of the trouble.
Zhou Yanru sighed, it was not easy to rescue Sun Yuanhua.
Zhou Yanru looked at Xu Guangqi, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and hoped that this highly respected important minister of the Three Dynasties would come forward and say a few words for Sun Yuan.
Xu Guangqi and Sun Yuanhua are both from Shanghai County, and both are Jesuits, Sun Yuanhua is still a disciple of Xu Guangqi, and they have such a close relationship, of course, they are concerned about Sun Yuanhua's safety.
Xu Guangqi did not squint, and bowed down to report: "Your Majesty, the Dengzhou Naval Division's warships are related to the imperial court's war situation, and under the promotion of Governor Sun Yuanhua, the officers and soldiers of the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Battalion were able to transfer the naval division's warships. The old minister implored the emperor not to ignore it. Now Governor Sun and many officials in Dengzhou City are deeply in the hands of Kong Youde's rebellion, the old minister thinks that it is the best strategy to eliminate this rebellion without using swords. ”
Chongzhen's smile narrowed a little, and said: "Xu Aiqing is really the words of the old Cheng to seek the country, I am not paranoid, Sun Yuanhua Denglai Governor spent a lot of money and food on the country, but the achievements are very few, and the Liaodong soldiers under his command have mutiny twice, and the Dengzhou rebels are burning and looting in the hinterland of Shandong, which has caused unimaginable consequences. Sun Yuan incarnated as the governor of Denglai, and the crime cannot be escaped! However, being able to eliminate the disaster of the war without using the sword and soldiers, and let Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers return to the rule of the imperial court, is also what I hope to see. ”
After a pause, he continued: "The distinction between merit and guilt is very clear, Xu Aiqing doesn't need to worry!" ”
Xu Guangqi bowed and said: "The old minister thinks that since Kong Youde's rebellious soldiers accept Zhao'an, there is no need to bother to change the ownership of the Dengzhou Naval Division, and wait until Dengzhou is restored to its original state, and then move the naval division warship back." ”
The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites didn't want to make a big move, waiting for the Dengzhou rebellion to subside and everything to return to the way it was, which was not in the interests of Wen Tiren, and his eyes quietly glanced at Chongzhen, only to see that he also frowned slightly as if weighing the pros and cons.
Wen Tiren turned his head and gestured to Min Hongxue, the secretary of the ministry, and Min Hongxue naturally knew what Wen Tiren meant.
Immediately went out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers resigned from the ministry yesterday, and they were all difficult to support due to illness. Over the years, the ministers and parties have fought against each other, and they have mistakenly exhausted the court. However, the emperor summoned the right, and the ministers and other ministers recommended and rewarded those who made meritorious contributions, and the ministers, as officials and officials, must ignore the corners of the party, and make exceptions to recommend the party to live up to the holy oracle. ”
Chongzhen looked down at Min Hongxue and said: "What is different from Qing's high opinion, but the palace is prelude." ”
"Obey the order!"
Min Hongxue coughed and said: "Dengzhou fell into the hands of Confucian thieves, although Governor Sun strongly advocated appeasement, the ministers and Confucian thieves and their subordinates may not really be attached, once such a chaotic army becomes a chaotic army, it is even more difficult to return to the establishment and be an honest man after burning, killing and looting!" This is just like being covered with water. Even if the appeasement is successful, it will take the opportunity to cause trouble again in the future. Therefore, the minister thought that it was not possible to put the ship's naval division under it, for fear of causing disaster. ”
Chongzhen's brain turned, and he looked at Min Hongxue with interest, Min Hongxue followed Wen Tiren, and the meaning he expressed was basically what Wen Tiren wanted to express.
Min Hongxue bowed down and continued: "The report is that the Dengzhou Navy Division is now stationed in the newly built Navy Division station, and its garrison, opening, and facing the enemy are all incomparable to the original Navy Division station, due to the haste of retreat, most of the officers and soldiers of the original Navy Division were captured by the Confucian thieves, so now there is a serious shortage of officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Navy Division, and if you want to prevent the Navy Division from being paralyzed, you must re-establish the ownership of the Navy Division and recruit the officers and men of the Water Division. The Pingdu Prefecture Flood Battalion garrison Feng Jian not only rescued the fleet of the sailors, but also built the garrison of the sailors in advance, and the Dengzhou Sailors could not return to the construction stage for the time being, and Wang Hui, the minister of Dengzhou Supervision and Liaodong Coastal Defense, was seized by Confucian thieves. ”
Zhou Yanru originally did what he had agreed in advance, but Wen Tiren and his family took the lead, and the two factions were already irreconcilable, and one side was in favor of the other and the other side was bound to contradict it.
Zhou Yanru signaled to Lu Zhaolong in the matter of the official department, Lu Zhaolong understood, and came forward to play: "The ministers are recommended, each has its own origins and ends, and listens to the Shengming judgment, and the person who has heard about it cited by Min Hongxue is the governor of Pingdu Prefecture, and he has not been in charge of Pingdu Zhizhou for a long time, and his ability is not enough to control the overall situation. ”
The implication is that unless Chongzhen appoints Chen Suowen to take charge of the Dengzhou Navy Division's warship, he will fight to the end.
Min Hongxue disagreed with Lu Zhaolong's statement, and said again: "Chen Shi saw that Chen had heard that the Qing Zhi was available, and during his tenure, the local bandits and bandits were extinct, and they raised funds to penetrate the Jiaolai River. ”
Chongzhen had basically agreed with Min Hongxue's opinion, and he said to Lu Zhaolong, who still had to argue: "Lu Qing doesn't need to say much, Pingdu Zhizhou Chen has heard, Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp Garrison Feng Jian is a great contribution to the country, it should be given a generous gift, you retreat!" ”
Lu Zhaolong saw Chongzhen's fierce words, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say more, so he retreated to the train.
Chongzhen didn't express his position directly, but instead asked Wen Tiren on Zhou Yanru's side: "What does Wen Aiqing think?" ”
Min Hongxue and Lu Zhaolong belonged to the Wen faction and the Zhou faction respectively, and Chongzhen ignored the first assistant Zhou Yanru and directly asked the second assistant Wen Tiren, which was no different from directly expressing his position.
Of course, Wen Tiren knew it, and immediately went out to play: "The old minister thinks that Min Shangshu's advice is very pertinent, meritorious service should be rewarded, and punishment for guilt is not easy for the ages. In order to reward his merits, Chen Suowen, the governor of Pingdu, was promoted to Pingdu Liaohai Haiphong Road, supervised the Dengzhou Naval Division, and Feng Jian of the Pingdu Prefecture Flood Camp garrison concurrently served as the garrison of the Dengzhou Naval Division, and the Dengzhou Naval Division was also under the jurisdiction of the Denglai General Army, and when the Dengzhou war subsided, it could be restored. ”
Seeing Wen Tiren's statement, Fan Shutai in the engineering department and Wu Ganlai in the criminal department expressed their support.
Today's court meeting can be described as full of twists and turns, at the beginning Wen Tiren was aggressive, intending to oust Zhou Yanru from the throne of the first assistant of the cabinet, but it turned out to be self-defeating, but it made Chongzhen furious.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yanru and his family launched a counterattack, impeaching Min Hongxue on the surface, but in fact, the spearhead was directed at Wen Tiren, but Wen Tiren, who was good at figuring out the holy will, seized the opportunity, and was recognized by Chongzhen.
It should be said that the contest between the two factions of Zhou and Wen in this round was a draw, and the final contest between the two sides was like an arrow on the string, and it was imperative, and both sides were accumulating strength to prepare for the next fight. (To be continued......)
