Chapter 896 - Incomprehensible!

There was a "pop" sound, and a newspaper from the Ministry of War that had just been delivered was thrown heavily on the floor by Wen Tiren. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since Lao Yang and Zhu Zilong gambled on the military order, the queen didn't like Comrade Lao Yang anymore, and then handed over the position of the first assistant to Wen Tiren.

After learning about the situation before and after the beginning and end of the Tianjin Change, Wen Tiren, who had just presided over the court bureau for a short time, was angry and congested, and his whole body was convulsive and trembling. I can't wait to ignore the one who provoked Cao Wenzhao, and several local county orders and prefects of the Donglin Party are cut down on the spot.

However, of course, there is no need to cut it now, because those garbage officials have already killed Li Zicheng.

In response to Wen Tiren's outburst, the other cabinet members echoed each other.

However, the remnants of the Donglin Party in the cabinet, Comrade He Wusu, did not think so. Sitting on the sidelines, sneering, looking like it doesn't matter, it's all your fault.

He Wuyu (born in 1581), the word Longyou, the number Xianggang, the first word Tiggo, the late number of idle Taoist. Xiangshan (now Zhongshan) Xiaolan people. In the 34th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1606), Bingwu was examined, and he was awarded the title of Jishi in the year of Jiwei (1619).

(1628) was promoted to Zuo Chunfang as a lecturer at the feast, and later promoted to a young Zhan Shi and a bachelor, and was promoted to Zheng Zhan Shi. He was promoted to the Ministry of Rites and served as a scholar and a member of the Cabinet.

Looking at He Wusu, an official of the Donglin Party, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, Wen Tiren became angry.

He really wanted to, lifted the other party's collar, sprayed his saliva fiercely, and asked: Can you Donglin Party members stop being brain-dead? Is it good to give the Donglin Party in those places a breath?

Don't tm, death is coming, and you still think about party strife and infighting, as well as death.

On the issue of the Ming Dynasty, Wen Tiren is a cunning person, there is no doubt about it. However, he is not a member of the Donglin Party, and the general direction of doing things is still for the good of Daming.

You can say that he is a traitor, but he is not incompetent, and he does not distinguish between right and wrong.

In the history of the later generations, Wen Tiren became a big traitor, because the government was later controlled by the Donglin Party. In addition, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Donglin Party surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and gave him eye medicine with all his might, blackening him.

The real Wen Tiren, except for sometimes attacking political parties, is actually not too bad a person.

In the time and space of this life, because of the arrival of Zhu Zilong and the dislike of the Donglin Party. Wen Tiren finally saw the situation clearly from the original centrism and began to lean slightly towards the imperial party.

vigorously supported the queen's proposal, increased the Jiangnan business tax, reduced the northern land tax, and worked against the Donglin Party.

Naturally, these actions of his were enough to make the gentlemen and Donglin people in Jiangnan hate him so much that they gritted their teeth.

Although Zhu Zilong also does these, and does more. But Zhu Zilong has the strength to directly not play with you and kick down all the tables, so they can only endure it temporarily.

Obviously, Wen Tiren learned from Zhu Zilong like this, but he didn't have Zhu Zilong's strength, so he let his political enemies disobey him.

At this time, many things are obviously not Wen Tiren's responsibility, but there are many officials in the DPRK and China, but the situation is unfavorable. On the head of him, the new first assistant, he desperately buckled the basin.

even used Wen Tiren's surname as an article, linking "Wen" with "plague", and rumors spread out in all directions. However, the people of the Ming Dynasty were illiterate, and some officials were also very superstitious, and some people really believed it.

It didn't take long for folk songs to allude to the surname and place of origin, "Wugui" is a turtle, referring to Wen Tiren, the first assistant of Wucheng!

When these reached the queen's ears, she stepped up through carrier pigeons, trying to ask Zhu Zilong, who was on the front line, if he wanted to change the cabinet head again?

Zhu Zilong thought about it, and the result of his reply was that there was no need to change.

Zhu Zilong, who came from the later generations, knows a little well. In the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, judging from the original unchanged historical summary, compared with several other chiefs and assistants during the Chongzhen period.

Wen Tiren's character and talent are already a thorn in the garbage, and they are barely qualified products.

He is a traitor, but he is only loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and he also understands some flexibility, and he is not a member of the Donglin Party, which is enough. It can only attract the firepower of some Donglin people, and it can also be thrown out as a scapegoat when the time comes.

If you can use it, you can use it, if you can't use it, just give it a good ending. No way, this year, there is really no better person to change for the time being!

Only few, Wen Tiren is shrewd and capable, and has a strong ability to work. The cabinet is busy with government affairs, and there are many clues. But under a strong sense of power, he can always persevere.

Moreover, compared with the general environment of the Ming Dynasty's ten officials and nine corruptions, Wen Tiren is a relatively honest official. The mansion in Beijing was still rewarded to him by the emperor in the past, and in addition, there was not much money left, and he would never be too blatant and accept a lot of bribes.

Greed is greed, but greed is relatively small, do more practical things!

His predecessor, Zhou Yanru, has only been in business for two or three years, and he has earned hundreds of thousands. In comparison, the old Wen is greedy, and he is simply a clean official.

However, obviously, the Donglin Party is not the only one in the Ming Dynasty.

There are also provincial faction officials, the thinking of the ancients is to help relatives and not to help, and everyone wants to be on top.

At present, although Wen Tiren is the first assistant, there are countless people who are dragging their feet in the court. The so-called hypocrite is more hateful than the real villain, that's the truth!

The state affairs were difficult, and Wen Tiren felt that he could not support himself alone, so he decided to give up his post and accommodate the opposition. A few days ago, Qian Shisheng, who looked quite pleasing to the eye, was introduced into the cabinet, in order to let the Donglin Party members not disobey the yang and the yin. At the same time, it also suppressed people from other factions in the cabinet.

As a result, it backfired.

Qian Shisheng looks kind, but he is actually a hypocrite whose life is endless and the party is constantly fighting.

openly colluded with the ministers and planned to reverse the temperature...... made Wen Tiren's abacus completely fail. If this is the case in normal times, it is just a bit of a ruffle, but in this national war, there is something on the front line, there is Li Zicheng in the rear, and there are more natural disasters that suddenly break out.

Such infighting made it difficult to issue orders, and the management of the armies in various places was also chaotic. It's half a suicide!

Take Cao Wenzhao's 50,000 East Route Army as an example, it is obviously a powerful force to suppress and interfere with Li Zicheng's army. Wen Tiren just ordered a generous reward, made a wish, and encouraged him to serve the country loyally.

As a result, the members of the alliance, secretly formed by the temporary officials, do not seem to think so.

Even, there are also imperial historians who openly accuse Wen Tiren of being willing to be cheap and curry favor with the martial arts. What to say, reading talents are the pillars of the country!

Those vulgar martial artists don't read poetry and books, and they have no loyalty in their hearts, so they refuse to serve the court to the fullest.

As a result, time dragged on, well, Tianjin was finished.

This incident not only made Wen Tiren a little desperate, but also made Zhu Zilong see a little clearly.

That is the old era of scholars, and officials even if he can be secretly sold. But because they are born in their bones, they are still accustomed to the natural emphasis on literature and light on martial arts, and have many bad habits. It's not going to be useful at all!

In peacetime, it can still play a little role, and in wartime, it is simply a pig teammate in seconds.

…………

A few days later, after the discussion between Zhu Zilong and Hong Chengchou.

Let Lu Xiangsheng, lead the remnants of the Tianxiong army, as well as the routed soldiers who fled from everywhere, barely gathered more than 20,000 or 30,000 people, and returned to the defense of the Beijing division.

And the united army continued to attack and confront the Qing army.

Lu Xiangsheng also lived up to expectations and successfully strengthened the defense of the capital, but it was only an expedient measure.

However, keeping the capital does not mean that everything is fine.

Li Zicheng began to kill people everywhere and set fires, attacking the state and breaking the county. As a result, half of the villagers and gentry in Beizhili are fleeing to Beijing.

Beijing was once a megacity with a population of more than one million, but now a large number of refugees have poured in, and the population has multiplied. The price of grain in Beijing has directly doubled.

That's it, in recent years, the Ming Dynasty has collected more taxes, and there are some stocks and grain stocks. If you put it in the previous history, at this point in time, I am afraid that the price of food will increase tenfold.

What's even worse is that many officials have opened up their death attributes.

sang against Shoufu Wen Tiren, so that this "wartime court" is almost in a state of semi-strike now. The only place where there is no strike is for the coalition forces on Zhu Zilong's side on the front line, and the supply of grain and grass is barely maintained.

That's it, I guess I'm still afraid that Zhu Zilong will cut them all down when he returns to the teacher, so he reluctantly does it.

Only, what is in the capital and other places, calming food prices, providing relief to refugees, maintaining law and order, mobilizing troops to defeat Li Zicheng, and other things. That's a mess!

The queen is also difficult to support alone!

For a while, just a month. All the shops in the capital are closed, and looting, killings, riots and the like happen from time to time.

The food in the palace and the food in the household department are mostly used to support the front line of the army.

If the canal is not recaptured, it will not be a long-term solution. So the queen ordered Lu Xiangsheng to go out of the city and take back a section of the Tianjin Canal!

Current affairs are difficult, and every night when she looks at the moon, the queen can't help but shed tears.

Sigh, why did other courtiers and wealthy merchants refuse to help Daming tide over the difficulties. Because she knew that there was hunger all over the streets of Beijing right now, and in this city, in addition to the palace and the state treasury, there was not a large amount of food.

According to Jinyiwei's investigation, a large amount of grain and rice was secretly hoarded by wealthy families in Beijing. At least, enough for the people and officials of the whole city, as well as all kinds of people, to eat for two or three years.

However, the reality is that they don't take out a grain of grain to give soup kitchens. He even thought about continuing to speculate on high grain prices and make huge profits.

It's as if the country is broken, and your own family is not dead.

For this kind of thinking of these people, the queen can't understand it, and she can't understand it.

To be honest, when Zhu Zilong was reading history books before he crossed over. Nor can I understand the behavior of the dead officials and wealthy merchants in the late Ming Dynasty.

Knowing that the country is about to perish, why are they still unwilling to contribute money and food, but they are still making a lot of money at home while waiting for death?

In the end, wouldn't it be all cheap for people like Li Zicheng, or mongrels like Hou Jin?
