When I arrived at the palace, it was already four o'clock in the morning (now 4 o'clock in the morning). According to Zhu Youcheng's meaning, first find a house to live in, and wait until the hour (now 7 o'clock to 9 o'clock) or the time of the sun (now 9 o'clock to 11 o'clock) and then go to see the emperor.

Tu Wenfu said: "Master Zhu, don't wait, let's go directly to the Qianqing Palace." The emperor said, when will you arrive, when will you go to see him. Don't you dare to wait, the emperor is in a hurry. ”

Entering the Qianqing Palace, the emperor was sleeping. Hearing that Zhu Youcheng was coming, he jumped up from the bed, rushed out of the dormitory, held Zhu Youcheng's hand, and said, "Brother Cheng, you are finally here." ”

The emperor got up violently, wearing only a thin pajamas. A cold wind blew, the placket of the clothes was rolled up, revealing a pair of hairy legs, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall covered their mouths and smiled.

Zhu Youcheng said with a smile: "In the past, Zhou Gongdan spit and fed the virtuous, Cao Mengde took Xu Yu upside down, and now there is His Majesty to see Brother Cheng." This matter goes straight to the sages and should go down in history forever. However, the autumn cold and dew are heavy, so the emperor should add a piece of clothing. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse blushed and hurriedly returned to the room to change his clothes. not only changed his clothes, but also asked Gong E to bring clean water, and only after washing did he meet Zhu Youcheng. It was just a surprise to forget the shape, if it is like this, it is contrived and hypocritical.

When the Emperor of the Apocalypse was changing clothes and washing, Wei Zhongxian came over and introduced Zhu Youcheng to the trouble encountered by the emperor. It turned out to be the emperor's teacher, Sun Chengzong, who had another trouble.

In that year, Sun Chengzong forced the emperor to agree to many conditions, and reluctantly went to Liaodong to serve as the economic envoy of Liaodong. Sun Chengzong spent more than 3 million taels of silver in the Ming treasury every year to build the Ningjin defense line and organize the Guanning Iron Cavalry. It's a pity that the old slave Nuer Ha Chi was bent on the west, squeezing the living space of his other neighbor, the Mongols, and turning a blind eye to Sun Chengzong's fortified city. Speaking of which, Nu'er Ha Chi is really a nightmare for all the neighbors. It is a word kill for the people of the Ming Dynasty, and it is still a word kill for the Mongols.

Sun Chengzong naturally showed the movements of the slave. It's a pity that this person, who was respected as the god of war by later generations, did not have half a strategic vision at this time, and did not know the adverse impact on the Ming Dynasty after Jiannu conquered Mongolia, so he only cared about secretly rejoicing. Finally, I can make a Liaodong strategy of Gou'an. However, the princes and ministers in the court who did not receive enough money because of Liaodong's military expenses were staring at him, wasting three million taels of silver and not fighting a battle, what kind of guarding the border was. So public opinion was turbulent, alluding to Old Man Sun raising thieves. Sun Chengzong is a temperamental person, and he wrote a resignation letter to tell the old man to return to his hometown. Sun Chengzong is the teacher of the Emperor of the Apocalypse and has won the sacred heart. The Emperor of the Apocalypse immediately wrote a letter in his own hand, and Wen Yan retained. and severely punished the officials who impeached Sun Chengzong.

However, the officials of the Ming Dynasty are very characterful, and the behavior of the Emperor of the Apocalypse is like a hornet's nest, and he is handed over one by one. Under the influence of Zhu Youcheng, the face of the Emperor of the Apocalypse was thicker than the city wall, as long as it involved the Liaodong chapter, he would not leave it in the middle, and when it accumulated to a certain thickness, he would take it to order hot pot.

But Sun Chengzong is an extremely faceless person. Decided to fight a winning battle for everyone to see. So he sent his general Ma Shilong to lead a heavy army to attack a dilapidated small city in Jiannu, but unfortunately Mr. Sun's descendants were too meaty. And the other troops were trained by him to become warlords, and they did not listen to the announcement, and did not respond at all. As a result, the meat-footed descendants of the troops went to the thousands, and were beaten by hundreds of second-rate troops of Jiannu, and the whole army was defeated, and more than 400 people died.

Public opinion was in an uproar. Thousands of people beat hundreds of people, and the result was so badly defeated, is it worthy of the three million taels of silver a year?

Sun Chengzong hid his face and was ashamed, and let out cruel words, this time I resigned with an iron heart. If the emperor still doesn't approve it, I will hang up the crown and leave.

When the song came to the emperor, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was in a hurry. Sun Chengzong is the emperor's teacher, the so-called heaven and earth monarch's teacher, and the teacher is the fifth person worthy of respect. Emperor Apocalypse has always regarded Sun Chengzong as the savior of the Ming Dynasty, he is gone, what can be done about the situation in Liaodong?

Zhu Youcheng snorted slightly, Sun Chengzong was finally leaving, leaving behind the mess, keeping his undefeated prestige, and achieving the title of God of War. But it's okay, it just happened to return to the origin of Wang Zaijin, but it's a pity that it's 10 million taels of silver in the past three years. In history, Sun Chengzong spent not only 10 million taels, but 16 million taels, and these silver became the last straw that crushed the broken ship of the Ming Dynasty. With Zhu Youcheng's time and space, Sun Chengzong postponed his trip to Liaodong for a year, and under the policy of giving soldiers but not to the people, he saved another 1 million taels a year in tuntian fees and people's fees, saving a total of 6 million taels. Originally, it was difficult to raise this 10 million taels, but Zhu Youcheng put forward a plan for the reform of the salt administration, and the salt tax revenue reached 15 million taels per year, and the imperial court's finances were greatly improved. However, the strange thing is that the Emperor of the Apocalypse has always refused to stop collecting salaries, which made Zhu Youcheng can't help but slander the greed of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Understanding the reason why the emperor was upset, Zhu Youcheng asked a little strangely: "Father-in-law Wei, why are you still staying in the palace at such a late hour?" ”

Admiral Wei Zhongxian was the commander of Dongchang, and he was also the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, and according to the system, he could stay outside the palace. So he usually finished his court affairs, and he would return to his mansion in Iron Lion Alley. As the saying goes, the gold nest and the silver nest are not as good as the kennel at home, let alone the luxurious kennel.

Wei Zhongxian sighed and said, "It's not that the emperor is worried. I watched the emperor grow up, and if I said something disrespectful, the emperor was like his own son and nephew. The emperor is worried, and I am not at ease at home, so I simply stay in the palace temporarily and wait at any time. ”

As he spoke, the Emperor of the Apocalypse walked out of the dormitory refreshed.

A few people sat down, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse said apologetically: "Brother Cheng, you can be regarded as here." I'm really sorry that I have summoned you back to Beijing in a hurry, interrupting your counterinsurgency plan. ”

"Your Majesty, the counterinsurgency has been completed, Bu Mu was captured alive, 50,000 bandits were annihilated, the siege of Cangzhou has been lifted, Nanpi County has been recovered, and the bandits' nest has been ended. Wei Chen was fortunate not to be dishonored, and returned the emperor to a peaceful rear. ”

Emperor Huo Ran of the Apocalypse stood up and said, "Is this true? ”

"Ah Jian is leading his troops to return, and he will definitely be able to return to Beijing in five or six days. I told him to bring the important prisoners back to Beijing, while the other ordinary rebels were temporarily detained in Cangzhou Prison and waited for the Criminal Department to send someone to the local trial area. When the captives arrived in Beijing, the prisoners were offered at noon, and the emperor knew at a glance. ”

"God, it's only been a few days, there are fifty or sixty thousand bandits in Cangzhou, how many people have you brought with you?"

"Your Majesty. I brought with me a thousand brocade guards, a thousand auxiliaries, and a hundred medical guards. On the first day, the main force of non-muddy was defeated and the siege of Cangzhou was relieved. The next day, the city gate of Nanpi County was opened, and Nanpi was recovered, and on the third day, the towers of the bandits' nest were stormed, and the bandits' nest was taken. ”

Next, Zhu Youcheng told the Emperor of the Apocalypse in detail about the military operations along the way, and Zhu Youcheng did not hide the killing of prisoners. Anyway, there is an official who wants to be impeached in a few days, so it's good to say hello first. However, Jin Yiwei's firearms, he used the Spring and Autumn brushwork. If the Emperor of the Apocalypse knew that Jinyiwei's firearms were powerful, he would definitely let the Ordnance Division copy them. But in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, there were many traitors. The rear-loading rifled firearm was his weapon to defeat the enemy, and it was no joke that it leaked to Jiannu.

At the end, Zhu Youcheng whispered to the Emperor of the Apocalypse: "Ah Jian and I also seized a lot of rare treasures in the bandits' lair. Emperor. Ah Jian and I have divided the things into three parts, one for each of us. I've left you a copy. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse laughed, and the sorrow caused by Sun Chengzong's imminent departure was swept away.

"With the help of Wei and you, the inner library is no longer empty. But I still accepted your generous gift. ”

"Your Majesty, the rebellion in Cangzhou is both a bad thing and a good thing. The downside is. The population of Cangzhou has plummeted, and everything is in ruins. The good thing is that the mud is like a magnet, attracting bandits from the surrounding prefectures and counties, and even the surrounding provinces, to Cangzhou. Let's gather and annihilate. This year, years, if not decades, Cangzhou and its surroundings will be quite peaceful. ”

"Brother Cheng, you are really good at persuading people. If I said that, I wouldn't have been in a hurry about Cangzhou's affairs. ”

"Didn't I come to the conclusion after I went to the field? Practice makes sense. ”

"Good practice makes true knowledge, is this your new quote?"

"No, it was my pilgrim Wang Yangming who said it, and I made some changes to make it more catchy."

"Wang Yangming, didn't the Donglin Party say that he preached heresy?" Immediately, the Emperor of the Apocalypse revised his opinion, "Donglin is an evil party, and what they oppose is not necessarily bad." ”

"Your Majesty, Xu Jie, Zhang Juzheng and others are all Wang Yangming's disciples."

The Emperor of the Apocalypse pondered for a moment and said, "Wei Banban, Donglin Academy has not been demolished. Change Donglin Academy to Yangming Academy, don't say virtuous appearance, even if there are a few capable people, it is also a good thing. The Ming Dynasty is inclusive and allows hundreds of schools of thought to contend. ”

"Your Majesty, it is better to add two words in front of the name of the academy - royal, royal Donglin Academy, so that the people can feel the emperor's kindness even more."

Zhu Youcheng's construction is selfish. "Royal Yangming Academy", as soon as the name came out, the people would think that the emperor agreed with Wang Yangming's psychology, and his doctrine would thrive in Daming, and there would be no embarrassment of flowering in the wall and incense outside the wall. Historically, because of the Ming and Qing dynasties, Wang Yangming's doctrine gradually declined in China, but it blossomed and bore fruit on Wadao.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded.

Zhu Youcheng struck while the iron was hot, and proposed a construction that was deeply hated by the majority of bandit comrades: "Your Majesty, one can amass so much wealth without touching the mud, but what about other bandits?" We might as well clear all the bandits in the Ming Dynasty, and the treasures obtained, our three brothers and three thirty-one, share it, and subsidize the family. What do you think? ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse stretched out his index finger, pointed it on Zhu Youcheng's forehead, and said angrily: "You little money fan." The plan is good, but I don't have any troops to send. ”

Zhu Youcheng said with a smile: "Hehe, Your Majesty, there are still 28,000 soldiers in Xizhen Fusi who have never seen blood." Send them out, in a group of 100 people, to go to all parts of the Ming Dynasty, one to train soldiers, the other to suppress bandits, hug the grass and beat rabbits, and the two will not be delayed. ”

"Okay, I'm ready. However, I won't help you write the transfer order, I'm too tired. Wei Banban, 28,000 people, is 280 squads. Haha, I can't write you to death. "The Emperor of the Apocalypse made a rare joke.

"Hehe, Your Majesty, the old slave doesn't write either, so let Zhu Youcheng, the little monkey cub, write it by himself, and then find the eunuch Wang Tiqian to seal it. Pap, tsk, Zhu Youcheng and Wang Tiqian's hands are swollen. ”

Emperor Apocalypse and Wei Zhongxian looked at each other and smiled.

"Two, have you forgotten that I have a small printing house? I only need to write one copy and have the printing house print hundreds of copies, and I won't be tired. ”

It seems that the most unlucky should be the stamped Wang Tiqian.

The sneering duo becomes a sneering trio.

Wang Tiqian, who was asleep, sneezed, tightened the quilt, and said in a daze: "Who is calculating our family......" (to be continued!)
