Chapter 251: The Doubts of the Imperial Court

Tu Shaoxuan is right, for some of Li Guo's military actions with foreign countries, not only Guangxi's pacification has put Tu Shaoxuan in contradictions, but even the imperial court, Chongzhen, and Li Guo's practices and dispositions are also in contradictions. When Tu Shaoxuan was uneasy to persuade Li Guo, a controversy was being launched in the court.

In terms of Li Guo's current status in the Taiping Mansion in Guangxi, Li Guo is not qualified to go out to fight. However, the court has already clearly and tacitly approved Li Guo to act as the envoy of Guangxi and act as the military affairs of Guangxi. Therefore, in terms of duty, Li Guo was wrong and guilty of sending troops without authorization. However, Li Guo has won consecutive battles, not to mention how high Li Guo's popularity and prestige are, even Chongzhen himself is also happy with Li Guo's achievements.

Outside the Shanhaiguan Pass in the north, the Jianzhou Jurchens of Huang Taiji were aggressive, and in the Xuanda area, the Manchurians entered the customs from time to time to rob, but the defenders were helpless. This is in obvious contrast to Li Guo of Guangxi who crossed the border to kill the enemy and was invincible. made Li Guo a small prefect and very famous in the imperial court.

It's just that the ministers of the imperial court have mixed opinions about Li Guo.

The most disgusted with Li Guo was the first assistant Wen Tiren at that time.

The original Shoufu Zhou Yanru lost the upper hand in the battle with Wen Tiren. In the sixth year of Chongzhen, Zhou Yanru was squeezed out by Wen Tiren. In June, Zhou Yanru returned to his hometown after illness, and Wen Tiren became the first assistant.

There is a folk song that says, "The Ministry of Rites reopened the heavenly list, and the champion explored the flower list, and was a little frightened." The cabinet was turned into a brothel, and the turtle king was always plagued. ”

"Always plagued." is talking about Wen Tiren, and the meaning of the whole sentence of the ballad is that the entire court has been controlled by Wen Tiren. It's a miasma.

And because of this, in the middle, Wen Tiren was included together with Zhou Yanru. "However, the villain is always there. It is not permissible to be called a traitor. Those who steal authority, structure chaos, shake the sect, slaughter loyalty, have evil intentions, and are lifelong thieves will be infamous and dare not resign, and Zhou Yanru, Wen Tiren will plant the party privately, and mislead the country and overthrow the country. ”

It can be seen that Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru's corruption and perversion of the law have an unshirkable responsibility for the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

Wen Tiren is now the first assistant of the cabinet, so he naturally knows about Li Guo's affairs in Guangxi.

He didn't care whether Li Guo had merit or not, he was just angry that Li Guo didn't know etiquette, and the etiquette in Wen Tiren's eyes was silver. Because Wen Tiren had heard that Li Guo had many gifts to the officials of the six departments of Nanjing Prefecture and the eunuchs guarding the town. The gift of silver is not a few.

This incident is what Wen Tiren hates most about Li Guo. As everyone knows, Li Guo did that in order to buy guns and guns.

But Wen Tiren ignored those. Because Wen Tiren also heard about it, it was said that Li Guo had captured a lot in a series of battles such as the conquest of Annan, and there were countless gold and silver treasures. Wen Tiren's greed immediately came up.

Wen Tiren also hinted at Tu Shaoxuan and Li Guo at the beginning. This means that as long as you take money, I will make you officials. Wen Tiren thought that Tu Shaoxuan had repeatedly protected Li Guo, and he must have received great benefits from Li Guo, so he regarded Tu Shaoxuan as Li Guo's accomplice. In fact, Tu Shaoxuan is still a good person, and he is quite upright, but he said that Tu Shaoxuan is now Li Guo's accomplice, but he has wronged him a little, Tu Shaoxuan is to Li Guo. It's just love.

Therefore, once Tu Shaoxuan said Wen Tiren's meaning as Li Guoyi, Li Guo laughed, "My lord." Not to mention whether I am at fault or not! But isn't it a slap in the face for me to send silver to the plague-stricken king? ”

Tu Shaoxuan was also dissatisfied with Wen Tiren's bad deeds, and when he heard Li Guo say this, he was also happy in his heart, and praised "Although the character of the supplement is straight, the person is loyal." ”

Behold. Somehow, these words reached Wen Tiren's ears, and from then on. Wen Tiren hated Li Guo and Tu Shaoxuan.

On this day, Chongzhen convened the courtiers to discuss the matter, and the matter discussed was the matter of the Houjin attack on Xuanda, as well as some people with lofty ideals in the resistance.

At this time, it was the seventh year of Chongzhen, and Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Khan carried out a large-scale military operation in order to completely unify Outer Mongolia. But at this time, there was no resistance in the grassland area, and Huang Taiji ordered the Jin army to besiege Xuanfu in four ways, plunder Datong, capture the victory fort, and kill Lingqiu. Jiang Bingcai, the county governor of Lingqiu, recruited troops to hold on, garrisoned Shiqi, put the chief Chen Yanwu, Ma Ruzhi, Zhang Biao in the classics, taught Lu Dengfu, and died in battle. After the city was broken, Jiang Bingcai, the magistrate of the county, hanged himself, and his family was martyred. Shocked from afar.

Although Jiang Bingcai's official position in Lingqiu Zhixian is small, he has the courage to fight against Houjin and should be commended. Chongzhen ordered the ministers to be called. Thinking of the repeated intrusions of Houjin outside the gate, Chongzhen sighed unconsciously, "Jiannu should die, but it's a pity that no one in the Manchu Dynasty has a strategy to break the captivity!" ”

Wu Luzhong, the imperial historian, has always been upright, so he said, "The emperor, Li Guo, the prefect of Guangxi Taiping Mansion, has always known the soldiers, first defeated Jin Jiannu with a weak brigade in the Shanxi area, and now he has frequently fought again, the whole territory of Ke'annan, occupying the Maliu Strait, raising the prestige of our country, and inspiring the Ming Dynasty!" It is better to transfer him to the Xuanda area, command the army and rule the people, and serve the country. ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he was silent.

The words of the imperial history Wu Luzhong raised Li Guo very high, and he was transferred to the Xuanda area, and there was only one official who commanded the army and governed the people, the governor of Xuanda.

But raising Li Guo is what Wen Tiren doesn't want to see. So, Wen Tiren glanced at Min Hongxue, a fellow villager of the Ministry of Shangshu around him.

Min Hongxue, the secretary of the ministry, was originally lifted up by Wen Tiren, how did he not know what Wen Tiren meant, so he opened his mouth to refute the imperial history Wu Luzhong, "It's not proper, it's very inappropriate." Although Li Guo has won many victories, the officials used in the place where he has pacified are not officials of our court, but Li Guo appointed them privately, which is really harboring evil intentions. It is reported that Li Guo's subordinates and others are all obedient to Li Guo's orders, only knowing that there is Li Guo, but not the imperial court! And the pacification of Guangxi made Tu Shaoxuan mediocre and incompetent, but was blinded by Li Guo from time to time. According to my wishes, I took Li Guo and Tu Shaoxuan and went to Beijing together to ask for the guilt! ”

Yushi Wu Luzhong was indignant: "I think you are jealous and jealous!" That Li Guo is now strong and strong, who can take him? If you want to take him, you go and take it! ”

"I am loyal to the country, and I have nothing to do, but I am dignified, and I only need one will, so Li Guo dares to be arrested without restraint?" Min Hongxue, the secretary of the ministry, also shouted.

As a result, the ministers of the two factions quarreled in the court.

Chongzhen was hesitant, he didn't have the idea of punishing Li Guo at this time, but he just promoted Li Guo and transferred him to Xuanda, but Chongzhen still refused. Regarding Li Guo's suspicion, Chongzhen's thoughts have never been broken.

Therefore, the rewards and punishments for Li Guo and Tu Shaoxuan are not mentioned, the rewards are not what Chongzhen wants, and the punishment cannot be talked about.

Although Li Guo didn't know about the affairs of the court for the time being, Li Guo also knew Chongzhen's suspicion of him. What the hell, Lao Tzu went to earn money! This is Li Guo's truest thoughts now.

Li Guo was angry at the moment, not to Ming Ting.

Because Li Guobeihai's glass and mirrors have been transported to the waterway connecting the Yangtze River, they are waiting for the Cao Gang to transport them, but three days have passed since the scheduled time, and the Cao Gang's people have not yet arrived.

Lee's unbearable scolding? Nima's! Why don't you come to the boat yet? (To be continued)
