"Talking, are you dumb?"

Seeing that the ministers had been silent, the depressing atmosphere was unsettling, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but shout, worrying about state affairs all day long, his face looked even more haggard, and his body was so thin that it seemed that a gust of wind could blow it down. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In fact, as early as when Cao and Wang were defeated and the thieves forced to Kaifeng, he didn't eat well, he was cranky all day long, he couldn't eat sweetly, he couldn't sleep at ease, he was afraid, afraid of the news of defeat, Kaifeng was too important, especially the existence of the uncle of the vassal king.

The Tang Bao in Kaifeng was sent out early in the morning of 13 September, and Ding Qirui and others couldn't hide such things if they wanted to, and the war situation always had to be issued, but it only arrived on the 24th.

The post station from Henan to Beijing has been abandoned, and the messenger transmission is also intermittent, and it has long been impossible to do it every day, moving forward at a fast speed of 300 miles a day and night.

Although Ding Qirui tried his best to defend himself in the Tang newspaper, he blamed the reason for the defeat on the thieves.

After all, Cao and Wang Xinjun were defeated, and it is understandable that they will be defeated, and the main thing is to impeach Zuo Liangyu, but Emperor Chongzhen did not hesitate, and still used the defeat of Zhu Xianzhen to supervise and appease his incompetence, so that Jinyiwei went out of Beijing to arrest Ding Qirui into Beijing.

The saint was furious, that is, there were people in the cabinet who were good friends with Ding Qirui, and at this critical juncture, no one dared to speak for him, and if Chongzhen killed civil officials and killed chickens, it annoyed the emperor, that is, as a cabinet minister, who knows if it will be cut off on his head, or Mingzhe to protect himself.

Yang Dezheng and Fang Guoan only had dozens of horsemen left, and the court had no scruples about the two. The same ordered Jinyi Wei to arrest them into Beijing.

Yang Wenyue, Hu Dawei, Jiang Mingwuren and others died in battle, the dynasty has always been the dead, and no matter how unbearable it was during his lifetime, as long as he died, he was well cared for, not to mention that these people were still loyal and commendable, so the cabinet princes were determined to praise the dead and so on, so as not to attract material discussions.

There are also Gao Mingheng, Chen Yongfu and others in this battle, which are also the praise of praise and punishment of punishment. Only Zuo Liangyu is not easy to do. Think twice about what you do.

Although Zuo Liangyu was the culprit of Zhu Xianzhen's defeat, he did not lose his backbone soldiers and horses, and the court still relied on him to serve. What's more. If the penalty is too severe. What if he reverses? What to do if you surrender to the rogue? The Central Plains has been eroded, should Huguang also be eroded?

In history, Zuo Liangyu fled and was defeated, and the court not only did not dare to punish the crime. On the contrary, "50,000 gold, 100,000 household gold, and silver medals, cloth coins, and Zuo Liangyu Army", it is really a strange thing, but it is also the status quo at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that the princes of the court just pinched their noses and decided to reward Zuo Liangyu, the newspaper of the Xuanfu came, Zuo Liangyu was angry and resentful, and the wind stinked for thousands of miles.

It's just how to deal with Zuo Liangyu? The reward is not good, and even if the punishment is shallow, it can't extinguish the people's grievances, but the punishment is deep, and Zuo Liangyuruo ......

It's a real dilemma.

The more I think about the monarch and ministers, the more I complain about the newspaper in Xuanfu, the important affairs of the military state, and I don't talk about it when I become a small people, looking at the proud posture of the newspaper, people who don't know still think that the Ming Dynasty is in Xuanfu, where is the majesty of the center?

In particular, the newspaper's tone of sentencing to Zuo Liangyu is unpleasant, are you the Criminal Department or Dali Temple? Is there still a center in the eye?

Although the monarchs and ministers must read every issue of the Times, everyone is becoming more and more dissatisfied, but it is difficult to prohibit it, and the power of the newspaper is deeply understood by the people in the DPRK and the Central Committee.

Not to mention that Jiangnan is planning to start a newspaper, and wants to call it Jiangnan Times, Liaodong Wu Sangui also plans to make a Liaodong Times, there is no reason for the center to fall to future generations.

Moreover, it is also very advantageous to start a newspaper by itself, and the high-spirited atmosphere of the Xuanfu Times cannot be learned, but after all, it is the central government, which controls all parts of the country, and the righteousness is in hand, and the scope is wider, and the information is sufficient.

Therefore, the monarchs and ministers have discussed political affairs these days, and the issue of the cabinet on the establishment of the Huangming Times has been solemnly put on the emperor's desk, and it has also shown the world that the place of Beijing is the center of the Ming Dynasty and the center of the imperial court.

In addition to these days, there are also Liaodong emergencies, Dongyu invaded Korea, and how to deal with Cao and Wang, which made the court disputed.

The most important thing is that after Saibeijie reports, how to reward Wang Dou? This is the most troublesome thing for the minister.

Emperor Chongzhen wandered left and right, and he vaguely judged Wang Dou, that is, the capable minister of the prosperous era and the hero of the troubled times, he could not give him a chance to sit big, so the Jingbian army was expanded to 50,000 earlier, and Wang Dou asked for a decree to conquer the outside of the Saiwai, he agreed without hesitation.

In his mind, Wang Dou must be in a quagmire, spending three to five years outside the Saiwai, and even losing both with the Hu people outside the Saiwai, taking this opportunity to exterminate the thieves by himself, rectify the internal affairs, and the state affairs will definitely be prosperous, Wang Dou's ambition will have no place to display, and he will definitely be a pure minister of the Ming Dynasty with peace of mind, and become Qi Jiguang of the Chongzhen Dynasty.

At that time, the monarch and the ministers got along, and together they prospered the Ming Dynasty, which was passed down to future generations, and it was also a beautiful talk.

It's just that Wang Dou has won another big victory and his reputation has risen again, why can't he stop for a while and let himself feel at ease?

If the minister is strong and the lord is weak, is it the way of the monarch and the minister? Emperor Chongzhen felt deeply powerless in his heart, and just looked at the ministers in the cabinet.

After the incident last year, Chen Xinjia deeply reflected on himself and felt that he should still stand with Wang Dou, who doesn't know that he and Wang Dou are the same party now? No matter what you do, you can't change this impression.

Although the emperor snubbed him, he still sat firmly in the position of the secretary of the military department.

He guessed that the emperor needed a bridge to communicate with the Marquis of Yongning, even if the court was suspicious of the Marquis of Yongning, as long as Wang Dou was in the day, he would be the secretary of the military department, and he only needed to be careful.

Moreover, yesterday the Xuanfu Town Intelligence Department visited. promised himself a lot of silver yuan, and he deserved to repay him.

With a smile on his face, he said loudly: "Your Majesty, the victory of the Marquis of Yongning is a grand event that has not been seen in the past hundred years of the dynasty, which is enough to compare with the feats of Xu Da and Lan Yuren, greatly increase the ambition of my China, extinguish the arrogance of Hu Lu, and Hu Er will not dare to go south to herd horses." The people of the three towns of Xuanda are peaceful! ”

"Such a big win. Naturally, you have to be rewarded! Weichen dared to propose, please follow the old practice of the Han and Tang dynasties, set up the capital of Anbei, and cover the land of the south and north of the desert. The Naturalization City is the location of the Imperial Protectorate. The Marquis of Yongning was appointed as the protector of the capital. Protect the northern frontier for my Ming Dynasty, expel Huma, and make the three towns no longer have the pain of wife separation! ”

A smile tugged at his face. With a little apprehension: "It's just...... Outside the bitter cold, if the Marquis of Yongning is stationed in Guihua City for a long time, he must continue to ask for money and food, and now the storage is scarce, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the household department to spend money and food, and the consumption is huge, and Weichen feels that this strategy is ......"

He looked troubled, but Emperor Chongzhen was moved in his heart, and after a few days of controversy, he heard a more reliable suggestion for the first time.

He has no concept of the outside of the Saiwai, and always feels that it is a bitter cold place where birds don't, otherwise Hu'er is rich, so he doesn't have to go south to loot from time to time, on the contrary, the Han army went to rob, and the soldiers of the previous dynasties also took it as a hard thing to stay outside the Saiwai for a long time.

Chen Xinjia's proposal is indeed feasible, and it is indeed a good strategy to attract trouble.

If Wang Dou's eyes are taken outside, he will give himself time to clean up his internal affairs, and the soldiers and horses of the Jingbian army will gather in the land of Anbei, far away from the Central Plains, it is better than Wang Dou leading a strong army back to Xuanfu Town, even if some of them are stationed, but after all, there are fewer soldiers and horses, and their own pressure is less.

And the place where the birds don't in Monan, even if Wang Dou's ability is great, if he wants to run it well, it will definitely take many years, and with this time, he can do a lot of things calmly.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this strategy was good, he looked at Chen Xinjia, and found that his temples were much whiter, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, it seems that recently, he has indeed snubbed Chen Aiqing a little, he is still loyal to the country, and he is also very talented.

Even if he is in a party with Wang Dou inside and outside, who in the current cabinet is not like this? If there is no strong army and Austrian aid, who can sit firmly in the position of cabinet minister?

Emperor Chongzhen was about to speak, when a stern voice suddenly said: "This move must not be!" ”

Everyone looks, but it is Li Banghua, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, Li Banghua is a clear stream of people, after Li Zicheng captured the Beijing division in history, he made a desperate poem and said: "The dignified husband is a sage and a disciple, loyal and filial piety, and he swears to die in the big festival, and he is worthy of me." Then he threw himself to death, gave the Taibao, the Ministry of Officials, the book of the Ministry of Justice, and the Qing Dynasty gave him Zhongsu.

I saw him get up and kneel, and look at the emperor, his upright and wrinkled face with a determined expression.

He said slowly, Sen Han's voice was as cold as ice and snow: "Your Majesty, Wang Dou's heart is unpredictable, and he is also eloquent, if he sets up Anbei, with his means, not more than a few years, he can operate the bucket without leakage, and Mo Nan is a good land for horse husbandry, when Wang Dou Iron rode tens of thousands, overlooking the Ming Dynasty, the country is in danger!" ”

He looked at Chen Xinjia suddenly, and his eyes were even more cold: "Chen Xinjia is a soldier and a soldier, but he is in cahoots with the king, and he wants to destroy my emperor's foundation, please kill him!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen frowned, just looked at Chen Xinjia, Chen Xinjia was furious, the cabinet was also silent, Liu Zeshen, the secretary of the criminal department, and Yuan Jingwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, just lowered their heads and looked at their shoes, not participating in their struggle.

They are in charge of the cold department, at this time the Ministry of Justice does not say that the Ministry of Industry is still not the Jiajing Dynasty Yan Song's father and son are in power, when the Ministry of Industry is fat, there are very few of them in the cabinet to speak, the Ministry of Rites Fu Shuxun is bent on resigning, and he is also old and frail, sitting on the chair as if he is about to fall asleep.

Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the cabinet, Zheng Sanjun, the secretary of the ministry, and Ni Yuanlu, the secretary of the household department, frowned, and now the strategy of the Donglin Party is to be friendly with Wang Dou, after all, the interests of the two sides are one in the south and the other in the north, and there is little conflict between them.

At this time, Wang Dou was more fighting with the eunuchs, just as most of the supporters of the Jin merchants were eunuchs, and many people had irreconcilable contradictions with Wang Dou.

But what's the matter with Li Banghua, he is also a member of the Donglin Party, why did he run to fight against Wang Dou?

Dongge University scholars Wei Zaode and Chen Yan also came to be interested and listened carefully.

"This is a heart-wrenching word!"

Chen Xinjia shouted angrily: "Why is Wang Dou's mental skill unpredictable? The loyalty of the Marquis of Yongning is known to the world! It was this great victory outside the Saiwai, he attributed it to the imperial court in the Tang newspaper, so loyal and righteous, but he was suspicious, wouldn't it make the loyal and brave soldiers feel cold? Suspicious of the general, how can it be the way of Li Banghua's ministers? ”

"Loyal? Song Taizu is not loyal to Zhou Shizong? ”

Li Banghua did not flinch, his words were like a thunderbolt, loud in the cabinet, and even more shocking, so shocked that Chen Xinjia was stunned for a while, and the cabinet was even more silent, leaving Li Banghua with a cold tone with soaring killing intent.

"Loyalty or treachery, not in the heart, but in the strength! Wang Dou has tens of thousands of soldiers, and each soldier can be one as ten, and he has the ability to overthrow my Ming Dynasty! Needless to say, Wang Dou's mind is unpredictable, but he is loyal to the king, what about his subordinates, can he think of a higher wealth, and it may be due to Wang Dou? Your Majesty, its department has long been difficult to control, and then set up Anbei, Wang Dou is even more strong and strong, this is easy to tie the tiger! Your Majesty, please think again! ”

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Li Banghua with a pale face, Li Banghua cruelly and ruthlessly picked out the things he was most afraid of, and the bloody two halves were placed in front of him, and he even tore Li Banghua's heart alive. (To be continued.) )
