Under the angry gaze of Emperor Chongzhen, a trace of bad premonition quickly hit the heart of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials. However, in order to know why Emperor Chongzhen was so angry, Shang Shu still picked up the fold from the ground with a trembling face and began to read.

For a while, in the huge hall, including Emperor Chongzhen, everyone focused their eyes on Shangshu.

Under everyone's gaze, Shang Shu's face was like a cloudy and uncertain weather, and in a short period of time, it changed into various diametrically opposed expressions that made everyone stunned.

When Shang Shu closed his hand, because of nervousness and fear, beads of sweat were already pouring out of Shang Shu's wrinkled forehead like spring water.

The face that was still sworn just now has also turned into a pig's liver color because of shame and anger at this moment, which is very ugly.

Not only that, Shang Shu, who was watched by everyone, actually knelt directly on the ground and said to Chongzhen...... No, it was begging for mercy: "Please calm your anger, it is the old minister who does not know people and mishears rumors, which caused today's big mistake." Please condemn your majesty to ......"

The official Shangshu very wisely immediately changed his position, which made Chongzhen's embarrassed face quickly improve a lot. The anger against him has also subsided a lot.

Just when the courtiers were guessing in their hearts what the content of the recital that Emperor Chongzhen showed to Lord Shangshu, he actually made a stubborn official Shangshu immediately change his position. Chongzhen on the dragon chair spoke.

"That's it, for the sake of you being an old minister, I'll forgive you this time, and I won't take it as an example. However, in order to reassure the front-line soldiers to fight for the imperial court, not to let Lord Wei Zhengwei chill. You, the secretary of the ministry, must go to Datong Mansion in person. Apologize to the General Guard of Datong Prefecture. ”

"Since you're going to Datong Mansion. Then the minister who went to Datong Mansion to announce the court's reward will be served by you. ”

"Speaking of rewarding the meritorious soldiers of Datong Mansion, I hope that the officials and the military department can come up with a Chen Tiao that satisfies me and the front-line soldiers before going to court tomorrow. The front-line soldiers fought such a great victory for the imperial court and ensured the safety of their own lords in Beijing City, and the imperial court must reward them heavily......"

Emperor Chongzhen had just left the main hall. Dozens of courtiers gathered at Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, wanting to know what Shangshu had seen.

Shang Shu said with a wry smile on his face: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's better that you don't want to know the specific content of the fold. However, there is one thing that the old man can tell everyone for sure. In a short period of time before, the emperor trusted the chief soldier of Datong Mansion very much. Therefore, I hope that all of you will not continue to participate in the court meeting during this period of time, and make Your Majesty angry......"

Hearing this, the court was not big. Some people are happy, others are sad.

After seeing that Shangshu didn't want to talk more. I can only leave the hall with helplessness and doubts.

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Junwu, the secretary of the military department who was also not very good at dealing with the literati group, unexpectedly stayed.

After seeing that there were only two of them left in the main hall, he walked directly to the side of the official Shangshu and said, "Lord Wang, is it just that after today's defeat, you will give up continuing to attack and weaken the general army of Datong Mansion......"

In the face of the mocking greetings of the political enemy, the face of the official Shangshu instantly became gloomy.

With a sneer, he asked rhetorically, "Did Master Zhang come to see the old man's jokes?" Doesn't your military department also want to take Wei Zheng and divide up the Tiger and Leopard Army under Wei Zheng's command and take it for yourself? Since this is the case, your military department will continue to participate in Lord Wei to His Majesty, and the old man will definitely not stop him. ”

After showing a trace of embarrassment on his face, the military department Shangshu shook his head and replied: "Lord Wang thinks too highly of the old man, and the old man does not have the courage of Lord Wang to dare to touch the brow of the saint." ”

Saying this, Zhang Junwu's words suddenly changed and continued: "However, even so, the old man does not intend to let go of this Wei Zheng. Let Wei Zheng develop and grow step by step in Datong Mansion and change the current situation of the imperial court. ”

Seeing the puzzled expression on the face of the official Shangshu Wang Wenwen, Zhang Junwu continued: "Lord Wang, what I said about continuing to attack Lord Wei is not to participate in him in the court, but to use other ways to make His Majesty suspicious of him......"

The shame of being in the court today, although it is self-inflicted. However, the cause of the incident was, after all, the general soldier of Datong Mansion, that is, Wei Zheng, who made him more and more jealous.

Therefore, at this moment, Wang Wenwen has already counted all the humiliation he received in the court today on Wei Zheng from the bottom of his heart. The attitude towards Wei Zheng has also changed from jealousy to hatred now.

Since he was full of hatred for Wei Zheng, the only thought in Wang Wenwen's heart was to pull Wei Zheng off the horse. It's just that he, who had just suffered the wrath of Emperor Chongzhen, couldn't think of a better way to take Wei Zheng.

And now, Zhang Junwu in front of him suddenly told himself that he had a way to deal with Wei Zheng.

This had to make Wang Wenwen excited. His eyes lit up, and he asked with a face full of anticipation, "What way?" ”

Zhang Junwu didn't answer immediately, but asked with a smile: "Lord Wang is familiar with history books, and he should know that since ancient times, many famous ministers and generals have not been able to die well. Second, the reason why they can't die well is summed up in only one reason. ”

"That is the high merit of the master, so that the emperor of the dynasty is jealous."

"Since Your Majesty trusts Lord Wei very much, and wants to reward Lord Wei again, then we will push the boat down the river and give Lord Wei a good official and knight. Wait until this Wei Master has reached a certain level of strength and influence. No matter how much he trusts him, he will have some concerns. ”

"When the time comes, some fanning by our people can bring a disaster to this Wei adult."

"Our military department received a report from Datong Mansion two days ago: in order to defend Datong Mansion, the General Guard of Datong Mansion wants to expand the Tiger and Leopard Army under its command, and the original 5,000 people have been expanded to 8,000."

"Originally, I still wanted to suppress this matter and not let His Majesty know. However, now I have a new idea, and I agree with him to expand the army, not only to agree, but also to support, and directly expand the Haw Par Army to 10,000, or even 15,000 people. ”

"Only in this way, Wei Zheng, who is getting stronger and stronger, will be jealous of His Majesty step by step..."

Wang Wenwen's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Good way...... I don't believe it, Your Majesty wants to see that the Datong General Guards really support the army and respect themselves...."

"It just so happens that His Majesty asked us to reward him Lord Wei, since it is a heavy reward, then we will add more burdens to Lord Wei and raise his grade to the same level as the Shanxi General Army. (To be continued......)
