Chapter 689: Da Ming Folds in Half
As soon as the words of the Ming Dynasty were about to lose more than half of their words, Zhu Youzhen's forehead suddenly jumped, even if he was usually generous to this loyal old eunuch, how could he allow him to say such rebellious words. He asked almost out of shape: "How did the Ming Dynasty lose more than half of it?" You tell me clearly! ”
Wang Chengen wept and kowtowed, and only after a long time did he snort: "The old slave is shallow and ugly, and he doesn't dare to talk about big things." However, from the dream of the Lord of Long Live who appeared in the book of the gods and men to extrapolate the word 'have', the upper half is the word 'big', one less pinch, and the lower half is the word 'Ming', one less 'day'. Looking at it together, it is not big or big, and it is not clear that it is not clear, does it not imply the defects of the Ming Dynasty? ”
The dormitory was quiet, and after a long time, Zhu Youzhen sighed dejectedly, Wang Chengen raised his head tremblingly, and the emperor in front of him seemed to be ten years old in an instant. I heard him muttering in a strange voice: "The words of the warlock are confusing, and in the future, you must not say it again......
After that, Zhu Youzhen lay down on the couch and glanced at Wang Chengen, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, "You have been guarding me for three days and two nights, go down and rest for a while, and then come back." Then he closed his eyes tiredly and said nothing.
The emperor rested, but the important ministers of the cabinet could not rest, and Zhou Yanru summoned everyone in the cabinet hall to discuss the response to the rebellion of King Huai. Although he and Hong Chengchou downplayed the situation in front of the emperor, but when they left the emperor's bedroom, the faces of the two of them were even more gloomy.
The evil influence caused by the Huai King was not just a disaster for Huguang, but also set a very bad precedent for the vassal kings in Pingbo. And the most lethal thing about them is the piece of paper, which counts the emperor's mistakes on it, and it is impossible to refute each one.
Looking at the Ming Dynasty, Shandong, Henan, Huguang, and Sichuan are all in chaos in the hands of thieves, and the two capitals and thirteen provinces have been one of the three chaotics, and no matter which aspect you look at, you can't get rid of the taste of the end times. The impeachment of the political envoy of Shaanxi has just arrived in Beijing, and the impeachment of King Shen, who was in Shaanxi, Gansu and Gansu, for colluding with Zuo Liangyu and having a heart of disobedience. Let ** have the feeling of leaking the house and raining overnight.
"King Huai is rebelling, who can the court send to quell the chaos? Don't be intimidated, let everyone express their opinions. After Zhou Yanru said a word, he lowered his eyelids, as if an old monk had settled down.
The ministers stared wide-eyed, the Shandong Grand Canal was cut off by thieves, and it was nonsense to send troops to send troops if they did not recover the rebellion in Shandong. In the end, Liu Yuliang, who was not close to his grandmother and uncle among the ministers, cleared his throat.
"Everyone knows the actual situation, the Shandong Grand Canal is broken, and the Beijing Division sent troops over? Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, Jiangnan is having a suitable candidate, but I don't know if Zhou Ge dares to use it! ”
Hong Chengchou's brows furrowed imperceptibly, he knew that Liu Yuliang was referring to Li Xin.
"Staying in the Duke of Wei is here, and the situation is not out of control. The Marquis of Zhenyu is waiting for the Holy Lord to deal with it, and it is not good to order him to send troops at this time! ”
Liu Yuliang sneered and asked, "What if the situation fails?" ”
How could Hong Chengchou be Zhang Sizhi, Li Shiwen and the like, Liu Yuliang's rhetorical question aroused his desire to win, "If the situation fails, Hong is willing to put on armor and go to quell the chaos in person." ”
"Hmph, the Shandong Grand Canal is not passable, where are you going to quell the chaos? Don't allow these unfulfilled words! Liu Yuliang was not to be outdone, and in just a few words, the solemn cabinet hall was turned into a place for vindictive arguments.
"Noisy and noisy, can you defeat all the thieves? It's not as important to have this effort as to do a few political affairs! ”
It was Fan Fucui who spoke, and he flicked his sleeves and expressed his dissatisfaction with the quarrel between the two ministers.
"Is there a way for Fan Xiang? Or will you say something outrageous? Liu Yuliang was mean-spirited, and turned the spearhead to Fan Fucui, since he was squeezed out by the cabinet ministers, no one's will goes with him, anyway, the emperor stuffed himself into the cabinet to mix sand, and he simply played the role of sand with all his heart.
Fan Fucui was speechless by Liu Yuliang, so he had to snort and sit on the chair without speaking. In the end, the ministers who discussed the proceedings did not come up with a charter and broke up unhappily. In the evening of the same day, the eunuchs in the palace passed the emperor's will, instructing Gao Shiming, who had just returned from Shanxi to Beijing, to supervise the military affairs of Huguang and set off for the south immediately on the sixth day of the fifth month.
The cabinet minister on duty is Fan Fucui, he doesn't understand why the emperor is so repeated, Gao Shiming had collusion with Li Xinduo when he was in Taiyuan, what is the intention of sending him south to supervise military affairs this time? After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with a reason, and finally only let out a long sigh, "Alas, a good Duanyang has become like this." ”
However, many officials in the Beijing division have a gloating attitude towards this matter, and now it is not as good as Chongzhen's early years, especially after the Grand Canal in Shandong was cut off by thieves at the beginning of the year, Yang Sichang was pinned down in Henan and did nothing.
The headache for the ministers is far more than this, the Shaanxi political envoy impeached King Shen for having a heart of disobedience, and he had to find a suitable opportunity to send it to the palace and show it to the emperor. Considering that the emperor's body is delayed for a day and a half, it is already a big deal, and it is absolutely impossible to hide it, Fan Fucui considered Zhou Yanru's explanation, and finally felt that he still had to stand in front of Emperor Chen, what if Prince Shen was in Shaanxi? The example of King Huai is close at hand!
Thinking of this, Fan Fucui went to the cabinet where the concerts were placed in various places to look for the bullets of the political envoys of Shanxi, but he couldn't find them even after flipping them. He was secretly surprised, how could he not find it now, even though he was still here in the morning? Fan Fucui's face immediately broke out with sweat, dripping down his already gray beard. He is the cabinet minister on duty today, and he has lost an important medal, but he cannot escape the blame!
Just when Fan Fucui was anxious and sweaty, another eunuch in the palace sent a will.
It was actually the use of a Lu Xiangsheng who was in charge of Beijing to patrol Shandong, to make meritorious contributions and open up the north and south. At the same time, Hu Dawei, who had a broken right arm, was the general soldier of Shandong, and recruited Liangjiazi as a soldier in Changping, and set off for the south within a seven-day period.
For a while, Fan Fucui was so shocked by this series of incredible decrees that he forgot the anxiety of not being able to find the bullet seal. The little eunuch saw that Fan Fucui was stunned on the spot, so he urged: "Fan Xiangbei is stunned here, long live the Lord to explain that it is urgent to do it, several ministers of the cabinet hurriedly discuss and make a vote, now that Lu Butang is reactivated, the crisis in Shandong may be solved!" ”
The little eunuch was obviously optimistic about Lu Xiangsheng, and his words were obviously tendentious. After Lu Xiangsheng was defeated in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, he squatted in the edict prison for more than half a year, and later Sun Chengzong pleaded for mercy before he was released, but he was still under house arrest under the pretext of recuperating in Beijing. The situation of Hu Dawei with Lu Xiangsheng is not much better than him, and he is still locked up in the edict prison, but he is not dead even if he has a broken arm, and people are embarrassed to bounce it in private.
Chen Wenzhi finally saw the trick of the Zhenyu Hou to carry water with firepower, and when a few stoves of firewood were burned, the strange-shaped things began to roar with white steam, and then the water was pumped from the water surface that had fallen to Yan Zòng through a thick iron pipe into the repaired canal, and in a few moments the river water filled the canal that had been built and opened.
This is simply a miracle, but Chen Wenshan also secretly regretted in his heart when he was amazed, Jiangnan has never been short of water, but this year's rare drought in Jiangnan can be used. These aqueducts would be useless in normal years. Moreover, this thing must be powered by fire at all times, and the amount of firewood burned alone is astronomical. If it is used in the north such as Shanxi, it may be a good choice. He then suddenly realized, didn't the Marquis of Zhenyu start in Shanxi, I heard that there was a great drought last year, and Shanxi did not have a harvest, presumably it was the credit of this firepower water lifter.
But no matter how many faults there are with this thing, it can still achieve a role that Ping Suri can't even think of, and not only that, but even the surrounding prefectures and counties have begged their heads, hoping to put them at the top of the list. As soon as he thought of this list, Chen Wenshan felt a little proud.
This is the first demonstration county of Zhenjiang Prefecture water site, but seeing the crowds of people left and right, watching the lively people surrounding the scene, seeing the high canal filled with clear and translucent river water, immediately burst into bursts of cheers, enduring.
"There's water, there's water! Mr. Chen...... Chen Daqingtian ......"
Listening to the praise of the people, Chen Wenshan was a little fluttering, and the county magistrate of the county kept saying New Year's greetings in his ears. Since the success of Yingtianfu's water supply, various prefectures and counties have been flocking to it recently. It will soon be the turn of the next county on the list, but if the nearby counties want to get the top position on the list, they need to pay some money, and the top position is naturally known to the one with the highest price.
Just as he was proud, a fast horse came running, and some soap Li struggled to squeeze through the crowd and came to Chen Wenshan.
"It's the handwriting of the Marquis of Zhenju!"
Chen Wenzhi is now throwing himself to the ground for the five bodies that Li Xin has admired, and just a trick of firepower to lift water will clean up people's hearts. But when he unwrapped the fire paint and pulled Li Xin's bag out of the envelope, his face changed greatly.
Because the above is not Li Xin's commendation of him, but an extremely harshly worded reprimand. The reason for the reprimand was his original list of the most proud. Li Xin asked him to return all the money he received to the prefectures and counties, which was originally a good thing for welfare, and a good scripture made Chen Wenshan, a crooked-mouthed monk, read it crookedly.
Not only that, but the Marquis of Zhenlu even helped him think of a way to deal with the aftermath, overturning all the lists and drawing lots to decide. As for the dissatisfied counties, let him find a way to go by himself, and if he can't get it, he will kick his head!
Chen Wenshan smiled bitterly twice after reading the last sentence, laughing more ugly than crying. This is a special form of appearance that is not visible to him!
