Under the gaze of Emperor Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly told the deception he had experienced after entering the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi.

When Sun Chengzong once again shifted his gaze to Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen's face was already flushed with anger.

After slamming his clenched fist on the dragon case in front of him, he scolded loudly: "Wei Zheng dares to bully the king, isn't he afraid that I will raid his family and destroy his clan..."

"No, I definitely can't bear Wei Zheng's tricks on the court like this, playing with me....in order to stay in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shanxi, he actually deceived the entire court and staged a scene of assassination..."

"Jinyiwei, immediately summon Jinyiwei to command Luo Yangxing, I will immediately take Wei Zheng to the capital, and severely punish him....let him know the price of bullying the king..."

The eunuch standing on the side of Emperor Chongzhen was just about to go out to announce the summons, and Sun Chengzong, who knelt on the ground again, directly stopped him.

"Wait... Please calm your anger....Today's Haw Par Army is not the Haw Par Army of half a year ago... Wei Zheng is no longer the Wei Zheng of half a year ago... If we try to take people like this, not only will we not be able to achieve our goal, but we will force the entire Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces to rebel..."

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen gradually calmed down.

After waving his hand and signaling the eunuch to return to his position, he asked Sun Chengzong in front of him: "Sun Aiqing....I want to know that Wei Zheng's prestige in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces has really reached the point where the imperial court cannot control it..."

Under the gaze of Emperor Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong wanted to shake his head in denial.

However, the fact that he saw it in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces told him. These things have to be said.

After taking a deep breath. He said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty." The criminal minister can say with certainty that as long as Wei Zheng really decides to rebel against the imperial court, the more than 10 million people in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shanxi, the tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army, and the more than 100,000 garrisons in the two provinces of Shanxi will definitely follow Wei Zheng unconditionally and rebel against the imperial court..."

"Once this kind of thing becomes a fact, it will bring a degrading blow to the imperial court......"

"The old minister will report to His Majesty a few discoveries made by the old minister in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces... Today's Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. It's not the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi half a year ago......"

It took half an hour for Sun Chengzong to tell what he had seen and heard in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces in his most concise words as much as possible.

When Sun Chengzong finished speaking, Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting on the throne, was already speechless because of continuous shock.

After a long time of tea, he asked Sun Chengzong with a sluggish face: "Sun Aiqing, the financial revenue of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces has really reached 30 million taels of silver in a year......

"In just one year, the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi can harvest tens of millions of quintals of grain taxes..."

"Tens of thousands of elite tigers and leopards, the combat effectiveness has really reached such a point, even you, a former battlefield veteran. I'm scared..."

"It's only been more than half a year, and Wei Zheng's prestige in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. It's really far more than the imperial court......"

In Emperor Chongzhen's series of Fan Wenxia, Sun Chengzong, who was full of helplessness, had to nod in affirmation.

Then, Emperor Chongzhen on the throne continued to pray: "Your Majesty, the old minister is in such a hurry to return to Beijing, in addition to asking the emperor for guilt, report the true situation of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. And for another very important reason..."

"This reason is not only related to the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi, but also involves the governor of Shandong..."

"According to what Lao Chen learned from Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, the Yamen, the governor of Shandong, is carrying out large-scale immigration to Shaanxi... This number of immigrants is likely to exceed one million. ”

"What's more, this immigration is not really an immigration, but a huge population transaction..."

"For every five people who immigrated to Shaanxi, the governor of Shandong could get a reward of one or two pieces of silver from the Shanxi Governor's Palace..."

"If all 1 million immigrants enter Shaanxi, the governor of Shandong can get a full 200,000 taels of silver from the Shanxi Governor's Palace."

"200,000 taels of silver, if all of them are used to help the victims, the old minister will not say anything....however, the old minister learned that the governor of Shandong intends to use 200,000 taels of silver to form an army, the same army as the tiger and leopard army..."

When he had just heard the news that the governor of Shandong was emigrating to Shaanxi, Emperor Chongzhen's heart, which had just calmed down, became angry again.

In Emperor Chongzhen's opinion, the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi have become so strong. If you resettle to the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi, won't you further increase the strength of the two provinces and increase the strength of your own enemies?

As the helmsman of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen certainly didn't want to see this kind of thing happen in front of him.

And Sun Chengzong's next report made his already angry heart even more angry...

One Wei Zheng is enough to upset himself, if the Ming Dynasty has another warlord like Wei Zheng, then the entire Ming Dynasty is not nothing, and his own emperor is not completely hollowed out by these warlords...

Thinking of this, Chongzhen's clenched fists once again smashed against the table in front of him regardless of the pain.

"Bang..." a shrill voice just sounded in the main hall, and it echoed.

Emperor Chongzhen's angry voice reached Sun Chengzong's ears: "Shandong Governor, Wei Zheng, these two people can't stay...."

"Immediately give an order to Jinyiwei, put the governor of Shandong in prison, and stop immigrating to Shaanxi..."

"The two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi are already so strong, they must not increase his strength anymore..."

Hearing this, Sun Chengzong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In Sun Chengzong's view, Emperor Chongzhen did not mention the two provinces of Shanxi and Wei Zheng, he must have been concerned about the strength of the two provinces of Shanxi and listened to his advice just now.

However, just as his expression relaxed, Emperor Chongzhen's next words made him nervous again.

"As for the Governor of Shanxi, Wei Zheng and the Tiger and Leopard Army, I can't let him go..."

"I hold the entire Ming Dynasty in my hands, and Wei Zheng only has the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi in my hands... I believe that no matter how much the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi change, it is impossible to rely on the strength of the two provinces to fight against the entire Ming Dynasty..."

"In addition, I also have the support of the Manchu Minister of Civil and Military Affairs....I believe that the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty will definitely come up with a way for me to get the best of both worlds...."

After finishing speaking, Emperor Chongzhen's expression when he looked at Sun Chengzong in front of him was not as hot as just now.

Because, Sun Chengzong's trip to Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces not only did not help him solve any problems, but also made the court make a big joke with himself because of the false alarm, and rewarded Wei Zheng heavily when Wei Zheng was not assassinated..."

Not only that, but Sun Chengzong in front of him also brought a series of difficulties and problems to the imperial court......

Therefore, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen at this moment, Sun Chengzong is no longer his deputy general, but a person who has brought a series of difficulties and bad luck to himself...

Coupled with Sun Chengzong's old age, Emperor Chongzhen already had the idea of letting Sun Chengzong go home to retire.

However, for the sake of Sun Chengzong being an old minister of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen, who sighed for a long time, did not say it.

waved his hand and motioned for Sun Chengzong to go down first.

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen had made a decision and planned to put this matter at the court meeting to discuss, Sun Chengzong couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. Because, as long as this matter is in the court, there will be a lot of changes.

When facing Emperor Chongzhen alone, Sun Chengzong still had the confidence to convince him. However, when facing the Manchu Dynasty with different thoughts, Sun Chengzong had no confidence.

Because, Emperor Chongzhen had only one thought in his heart, that is, for the court, for the Ming Dynasty, and for his own dominance. As long as you see the other party's purpose, you can prescribe the right medicine.

However, when facing the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty who had different hearts, he couldn't do it himself.

Although his prestige in the court is very high, as long as he is a courtier, he will have political enemies, and he is no exception.

No matter how he persuaded Emperor Chongzhen at the court meeting, those political enemies would oppose him-for-tat.

Under such circumstances, with Emperor Chongzhen's suspicious character, the imperial court would probably take the risk of using force against Wei Zheng.

At this time, Sun Chengzong wanted to try harder, but when he saw the determined expression on Chongzhen's face, he gave up.

After a long sigh, he had to drag his helpless and tired body and slowly leave the palace gate.

What Sun Chengzong didn't expect was that as soon as he left the palace gate with his front foot, the eunuchs in the palace, who were regarded as confidants by Emperor Chongzhen, spread the news of Sun Chengzong's return to the capital throughout the capital.

At the same time, the conversation between Sun Chengzong and Emperor Chongzhen in the imperial study was also passed out word for word.

Luo Yangxing, who received Wei Zheng's secret letter one step in advance, made a decision directly, that is, to take leave from the imperial court and recuperate....

Those political enemies of Sun Chengzong were as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, regardless of the night that had enveloped the entire capital. As if they had been discussed, they quickly gathered together and began to discuss countermeasures against Sun Chengzong...

Of course, dealing with Sun Chengzong is one thing, and dealing with the Tiger and Leopard Army and Shanxi Province is also a problem.

For these civil and military generals, they don't care whether the court is a problem or not, and whether Emperor Chongzhen's position is stable or not.

In their eyes, the most important thing is their own interests.

As long as they can obtain benefits, they will not care about the safety of the court and the country.

Therefore, in the face of the income of tens of millions of taels of silver a year in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, it is absolutely impossible for them to be blushing.

Therefore, at this moment, they still have a discussion goal, that is, how to move Emperor Chongzhen at tomorrow's court meeting, directly use troops against the two provinces of Shanxi and take the two provinces.

In their eyes, only in this way can they get a piece of the huge wealth of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces... (To be continued......)
