Putting aside the belt Zhu Lang, the ministers began to concentrate their firepower on Sun Chengzong. The military expenditure of more than 3 million taels of silver was wasted a year, which caused the Ming Dynasty to be overstretched, but it turned out that only a bunch of soft-footed shrimp were brought out, which was really the most ridiculous thing in the world.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse's face was very unsightly. Sun Chengzong was his teacher and was highly respected by him. Although under Zhu Youcheng's explicit or implicit reminders, he gradually understood that Sun Chengzong was not the god of war, but the respect for the teacher buried in his heart made him always adopt an ostrich mentality and was unwilling to face it. Now the minister is pointing his nose and scolding Sun Chengzong, but he is still scolding reasonably, so that he can't defend the teacher, how can he be happy?

Zhu Youcheng saw that the Emperor of the Apocalypse looked embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Lord Sun Chengzong has been guarding Liaodong for nearly three years, the border is peaceful, and countless fortified cities have been built. The minister heard that Lord Sun had submitted his resignation many times, and the emperor might as well agree to his request. ”

Emperor Tianqi understood, and without waiting for other ministers to interject, he said: "Zhun Qing's play, let Sun Chengzong return to his hometown to retire, give him a python robe and jade belt, and seal the Taifu." ”

The ministers were stunned, it was not the first time to attack Sun Chengzong in this way, but every time the Emperor of the Apocalypse was arbitrary, he suppressed the opposition and continued to use Sun Chengzong. Why did you make an 18o turn in your attitude today and agree to remove Sun Chengzong? The ministers had accumulated strength, and in order to impeach Sun Chengzong, they did not hesitate to turn the world upside down. But without waiting for the opportunity to wave the question, the emperor satisfied their request, making the ministers feel that a punch on the cotton, although effective, was quite uncomfortable.

"Let's discuss the candidates for Liaodong Economic Strategy. Liaodong Jingluo is in charge of the northeast border, which is very critical, and when Mr. Sun leaves, it is necessary to find someone to fill this vacancy. ”

Cabinet Elder Shi Feng came to ponder for a while. Then he said loudly: "Wang Zaijin is the most suitable candidate." Guangning was defeated, our army was defeated for thousands of miles, such a crisis, Lord Wang can hold steadily, and now the situation in Liaodong is much better than before, Lord Wang will definitely be able to hold it. ”

The courtiers echoed their voices. They all think this is a good candidate. Although Wang Zaijin did not recover an inch of land, he did not throw money into the quagmire in Liaodong. The current Liaodong is like chicken ribs for the Ming Dynasty, the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it. No matter who is replaced to supervise Liaodong, they dare not risk the crime of losing the land and withdraw to Shanhaiguan, so they can only rely on the fortified city and wait for help. Consume the last bit of national strength of the Ming Dynasty. Only Wang Zaijin, the stunned youth, dared to give up the fortified city of Liaodong and retreat to Shanhaiguan. Losing the land, Wang Zaijin was a loyal minister, desperately losing his personal reputation and seeking tangible benefits for the Ming Dynasty. The courtiers are not stupid, after so many years, they know who is the most suitable Liaodong economic envoy.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse shook his head and said, "Lord Wang is too cautious. It is not suitable to be a strategic envoy of Liaodong, and this proposal will not work. ”

Cabinet elder Huang Li is extremely whimsical. Said: "It's better to ask the former Liaodong Jingluo to make Xiong Tingbi Xiong out of the mountain." He is good at defending the city, and he will be able to keep the peace of Liaodong. ”

The courtiers did not second the proposal this time, because they were the ones who made a noise in the court back then and demanded a heavier punishment of Xiong Tingbi, and now Xiong Tingbi is reactivated, isn't it a slap in the face?

The Emperor of the Apocalypse shook his head again. said: "The general of the defeated army, how can he be brave? ”

The courtiers proposed a candidate, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse denied a candidate. In the court, the people who knew the soldiers were mentioned all over again, but it was not that the age was inappropriate. is that the qualifications are not qualified, and the Liaodong Economic Strategy has made this position unresolved.

In the end, Wen Donglai, the deputy assistant of the cabinet, said a little negatively: "Either let the military department Shangshu Gao Di Gao go, anyway, every official who serves as the Liaodong Economic Strategy Envoy is either hung with the title of squire of the military department, or hung with the title of secretary of the military department, in terms of qualifications, he is the most suitable to go." ”

Unexpectedly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded and said, "Wen Aiqing really won my will, and she is worthy of being the minister left by the first emperor to me." Your opinion is correct. ”

Wen Dong is in a hurry, he knows Gao Di too well, he is cautious when he says it well, and he is timid as a mouse if he doesn't say it well, and he can make a certain contribution to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty in the financial position. However, the Emperor of the Apocalypse agreed with his words, he couldn't confess to the emperor, I was angry, you can't take it seriously.

Gao Di was more anxious than Wen Donglai, he understood that he had a few catties and a few taels. Although he was familiar with the books of sages and wrote good articles, he did not know soldiers. Since he became the secretary of the military department, he was only responsible for administrative management, and the real military affairs were handed over to appropriate subordinate officials to do, and he was just a leader. Now that it's good, he was thrown into a very professional post in Liaodong Economic Strategy at once, and he was immediately stunned. However, he didn't dare to tell the emperor, I don't understand military affairs, so you should change people. In this way, his head probably has to be changed to a different position - since he doesn't know the soldiers, why do he dare to take over the post of secretary of the military department? Oh, if you have benefits, you will go up, and if you have difficulties, let it, what is the use of the emperor raising you, it is better to click with a knife.

Both of them had faces as ugly as bitter melons. But a big stone was laid down in the hearts of the other ministers.

The Liaodong Economic Strategy Envoy was in charge of the military and civil affairs of a large territory north of Shanhaiguan, and was one of the top feudal officials in the Ming Dynasty. Liaodong originally had a population of more than 2 million, and was rich in pearls and ginseng, which was a rich and prosperous place. It's a pity that Jiannu is raging, Liaodong is ruined, and Liaodong has made this feudal official become an unlucky messenger, and whoever touches it is unlucky.

What's more, Liaodong is now a dead end, it looks peaceful, but in fact it is full of dangers. If you can't hold it, you can't retreat. Sun Chengzong took advantage of the opportunity when Jiannu had no time to look south, and established several cities west of the Liao River, known as the Guanningjin defense line, but the defenders only dared to hold on to the city and did not dare to go out of the city to fight. The Guanningjin defense line has become a lonely city. If Jiannu is determined to attack the city, the city will be broken for a year and a half. And the strong wall clears the wilderness, retreats to Shanhaiguan, and consumes Jiannu, but it will be regarded as abandoning the land inside and outside the court, no matter who it is, it can't bear this responsibility.

So the other officials don't care who goes to Liaodong to die, anyway, it's not himself.

The two were thinking about how to speak, and a cry of "wow" broke the tranquility of the Jinluan Palace, but it was the little girl Zhu Shuyuan who ignored her now, felt annoyed, and protested with a cry.

Emperor Tianqi cared about his daughter, so he didn't let Wei Zhongxian announce the dissolution of the dynasty, and then took Zhu Youcheng and his daughter back to the harem. Zhu Shuyuan doesn't like the interior very much, although there are carved beams and paintings, and the golden walls are splendid, so everyone chats in the imperial garden. Xiao Yuanyuan picked flowers for a while, caught butterflies for a while, and had a good time. After lunch, Yuanyuan fell asleep, and Zhu Youcheng was finally able to get out.

Zhu Youcheng didn't sleep all night and yawned all day; And Wei Zhongxian was worried about the emperor, he didn't sleep well, and he was also tired.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse saw that the two of them were tired and couldn't bear to disturb them any longer, so he asked the two of them to go back to rest.

The two of them left the palace, and a luxury carriage galloped in front of them and stopped in front of them, which was Wei Zhongxian's special car. In the Ming Dynasty, it was popular to take a sedan chair, but not a horse-drawn carriage. The sedan chair has 2 people to carry the small sedan chair, 4 people to carry the medium-sized sedan chair, 8 people to carry the large sedan chair, and even to the level of the sedan chair carried by 32 people, such as the first auxiliary of the Ming Dynasty to return to the hometown to mourn, and sit on the kind of 32 people to carry the level of the sedan chair. But no matter what kind of sedan chair it is, it is not as comfortable as the four-wheeled carriage of the Emperor Ming of the Apocalypse. Zhu Youcheng has money and will not treat himself badly, so he specially installed an easy chair in the carriage and installed Meimengsi, which is very comfortable to sit and lie down, and is not as eye-catching as the 32-lift sedan chair, according to Zhu Youcheng, this is called low-key luxury. Driven by Zhu Youcheng, Wei Zhongxian also fell in love with the carriage, no matter where he went, it was always a car. (To be continued!)
