Chapter 358: Physically Handicapped
Wu Sangui is now a eunuch, and there has been no precedent for eunuchs to rebel since ancient times.
This is not difficult to understand, even if the eunuch rebellion is successful, to whom can the throne be passed on?
However, Wu Sangui is different. He has a son, the sixth aunt, who is ten months pregnant, and gave birth to a big fat boy a few days ago!
Wu Sangui was already disheartened, but after having a son, infinite pride and ambition suddenly rose in his chest!
Hum! Eunuch, what happened to the eunuch?
I have blood to stay, isn't it much stronger than those normal people? Let's just say that this dynasty, Emperor Zhengde and Emperor Tianqi are all queenless......
In order to hide people's eyes and ears and prevent the news of his own heirs from coming out, as soon as his son was born, Wu Sangui strangled his sixth aunt to death, and then announced to the public that he died in childbirth.
Eunuchs know martial arts, and gods can't stop them - uh, no, eunuchs have descendants, and plotting to usurp the throne will get twice the result with half the effort!
Therefore, he sent a letter of resignation, saying that he was willing to serve the country, and Emperor Chongzhen immediately summoned him!
Wu Sangui secretly glanced at Chongzhen, who was sitting in front of the imperial case, and saw that he was still reading a letter in his hand, so he continued to wait patiently.
After a long time, Wu Sangui's voice came from Chongzhen's ears: "Wu Aiqing, just now I carefully read your recital, and what is written in it is very much in line with my intentions......
Wu Sangui's expression was awe-inspiring, and he said solemnly: "The minister is disabled and strong, and he is willing to be driven by His Majesty, and he has no two hearts!" β
Emperor Chongzhen looked at Wu Sangui with a smile and said with appreciation: "Aiqing's father, Wu Xiang and Wu Zongbing, have served the country for many years, and now he is sick. It's time to go back to Beijing and retireβ"
As soon as Wu Sangui heard this, he immediately understood that Emperor Chongzhen had agreed to the matter of his own performance!
This kind of thing. It's really hard to say that Nima is carrying his father behind his back, and he says that he wants to take his father's place......
This. In fact, it is a great disapproval of the world!
The so-called monarch and minister, father and son, son want to seize the power of Lao Tzu, what to say?
Originally, my father also valued himself very much, and he was bent on supporting himself to be on top. It's a pity that after he stopped talking, his father became cold to himself......
Wu Sangui bit his lip tightly, with incomparable indifference in his eyes - what kind of father-son relationship, bullshit is not! Who dares to block Lao Tzu's ascendancy, he doesn't recognize it all!
Wu Xiang except for Wu Sangui. There are also two sons, who obviously belong to the "queen". And Wu Sangui is a eunuch now, and outsiders don't know about having a son, in terms of reliability, I'm afraid Wu Sangui is more reliable!
Wu Sangui was right - Emperor Chongzhen did not believe in Wenchen military generals, but he believed in eunuchs very much.
"Wu Aiqing, since you are sincere and willing to serve the country, I will never chill your heart! I ordered you to be the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan. Your father will go back to Beijing to retire......"
"Obey the order!" Wu Sangui knelt down with a thud, pulled up the male duck's throat and replied loudly.
This kind of tone of eunuch speech, Emperor Chongzhen is used to hearing it. Therefore, as soon as he heard Wu Sangui's kind "eunuch voice", his heart was sweeter than eating honey. It's good if it's a eunuch, the eunuch has no selfishness, and the eunuch won't rebel.
Chongzhen thought for a moment. When the words came to his lips, he stopped alive, and then muttered for a moment. said to Wu Sangui, who was kneeling on the ground: "General Wu, kneel down!" β
After Wu Sangui went down, Emperor Chongzhen summoned Wang Chengen, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi. Asked about something.
He wanted to ask Wu Sangui about this matter just now, but Chongzhen suddenly remembered that Wu Sangui and Zhang Zhang had a "mutual hatred", and I was afraid that he couldn't ask the truth......
That's right, what Chongzhen wants to ask is about tension!
Wang Chengen hurried to the imperial study, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard the voice of Emperor Chongzhen: "Chengen, no need to be polite!" Come here, there is a matter that is difficult for me to decide in my heart this morning, and you can help me refer to it in detail. β
Although Chongzhen said "no need to be polite", how dare Wang Chengen take it seriously? After performing the full number of salutes, Wang Chengen came to Emperor Chongzhen and waited for him to speak.
Chongzhen handed a stack of folds on the imperial case to Wang Chengen, frowned, and said, "Chengen, you can take a look first." β
Wang Chengen said yes, took it and looked at it, and immediately frowned and locked it tightly -- these folds were all impeached by one person -- Liaodong Patrol pressed tension.
"Since Governor Hong impeached the Liaodong Governor in a hurry, there has been a lot of ...... every day when I receive a note to impeach him."
Wang Chengen promised again and again, and quickly glanced at several books. It's all about chasing after the wind and shadows, but the lethality is the most - collusion with Jiannu!
Previously, Zhang Li was deducted from colluding with the northern captives, that is, the big hat of the Mongols, and he could also use Young Master Man Guiman to overturn the case. But now they collude with Jiannu...... This Nima cliff can't be overturned! There is no one in the Jurchens who is an official and a young master to serve the Ming Dynasty! They gave the Ming Dynasty a fate!
The most lethal one in this twist and turn is the Tuanshan Fort under the rule of Zhang Li, which actually sells pills to the "enemy country"!
This is a real enemy! I can't bear it, I can't bear it!
In all fairness, most of the pills sold in Tuanshan Fort are still bought by the common people of the Jurchens. Those Eight Banner nobles have special Langzhong in their families, and they also believe in decoction more.
Besides, those pills for treating diarrhea and colds are not so reliable if they are beneficial to the enemy. The pill is not food, nor iron, nor gunpowder......
However, some imperial historians said that Zhang Li sold "Jingang Pill", "Strength Pill" and so on, and it was almost Viagra. Jiannu ate the "strong pill" made by tension, which is why the war is so fierce......
This is obviously nonsense, but the officials of the Ming Dynasty have always had the power to talk nonsense, not to mention the emperor, even the Jade Emperor!
These are not the point, the point is that Wen Tiren and Hong Chengchou are determined to get rid of tension, because tension's Tuanshan army hinders Liaodong from drinking soldiers' blood and eating empty wages. And Zhou Yanru originally wanted to maintain tension, but when he saw the "turbulent feelings", he also regarded tension as an outcast.
Officialdom is really unreliable......
"Chengen, Hong Chengchou said earlier that Zhang Li colluded with Jiannu, but I still don't believe it. But Wen Shoufu said the same thing today, this-"
Chongzhen showed hesitation on his face, obviously saying that he still didn't believe that Zhang Li was "fornicating with slaves". But Wen Tiren is the minister who suits his heart at the moment, and the two are still in the "honeymoon period". What Wen Tiren said, he had to believe it.
Wang Chengen knew that Wen Tiren had "offered" a large amount of money to His Majesty on the previous Wanshou Festival, and now was definitely not the time to speak ill of Wen Tiren.
After Wang Chengen figured out this section, he immediately responded: "Your Majesty, Lord Wen is old and seeking the country, and he must not be untargeted......" (To be continued.) )
