Chapter 243: The Emperor's Protection
Zhending Mansion, Yang Sichang just got up and received a secret report from Bauhinia Pass, Li Xin actually abandoned the city and fled! He was also incredulous at the news, and immediately sent someone to confirm it. It wasn't until he got a confirmed reply from Zhu Mei, the chief soldier of Baoding, who was in Bauhinia Pass, that he laughed.
"Li Xin, Li Xin, ignoring the grace of the saint, actually abandoned the city and fled, see how long you can jump this time?"
Yang Sichang only felt that this was really a beautiful day, and it was worth congratulating to be able to remove a big hidden danger. Just when He Renlong asked to see him, he saw Yang Sichang dancing with his hands, and hurriedly accompanied Xiao Xiao and asked, "Yang Xiang is so happy, but there is a great thing?" ā
"It's a good thing to say, I want to go to a mess from now on, do you think you shouldn't get a congratulatory congratulations?"
"I should congratulate, I should congratulate!"
People didn't elaborate, and He Renlong naturally didn't want to continue to ask, so he had to follow and nod his head again and again in agreement with Yang Sichang's statement. Yang Sichang naturally didn't talk to him in detail, and he was also entangled in bad news for several days, and the layout of many days finally had a little dividend, which made him smile. He quickly regained his old mood and mood, and said two official sentences to hide his feelings.
"In the past few days, the thieves have been mobilized one after another, so you must be careful to monitor them, and don't let them break the siege!"
"The last general dares to be careless, Yang Xiang can rest assured, this Taihang Ba Cheng is not to mention the iron bucket, it is also extremely strict! Liu Guo can't fly out even if he can insert his wings! ā
"Hmm!"
Yang Sichang glanced at He Renlong again, knowing that this guy had always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and he was thinking about him replacing Zuo Liangyu. Sure enough, He Renlong mentioned this person.
"Yang Xiangrong, Zuo Liangyu fled back to the south of the Yellow River after the defeat a few days ago, I'm afraid it will be extremely unfavorable to Henan, Yang Xiang has to make plans early!"
"Oh? How unfavorable, talk about it! ā
Yang Sichang snorted imperceptibly in his nostrils, how could this liao be so unbreathable, even if he didn't mention it, he had already made a note to the emperor to replace him, and he would soon reach Zhending. But Yang Sichang didn't say anything, but listened to He Renlong's analysis one by one.
"Zhang Xianzhong rebelled, Li Zicheng re-became bigger, according to the last general's heard, Lord Xiong did not win several battles. Now that Zuo Liangyu's army has been defeated, I am afraid that the thieves will be even more unscrupulous, at that time, at that time, at that time, ......"
He Renlong suddenly found that Yang Sichang's face, which was still smiling slightly, gradually darkened, and only then did he realize that what he said was becoming more and more alarmist, so he suddenly stopped. Just when He Renlong was embarrassed and didn't know whether to say or not, the governor's own soldiers sent a military report that had just been transferred from Henan.
It was Xiong Wencan, who was the premier of the military affairs of Nangi, Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Huguang, and Sichuan.
"Look!"
He Renlong was very grateful to Xiong Wencan for his military report, which came too timely when he was embarrassed and speechless. But after opening it, he took a few looks, but he couldn't laugh, Xiong Wencan fought several defeats in Nanyang, Lushan, and Yuncheng one after another. Ask Yang Sichang to send reinforcements to stabilize the situation in Henan.
This is the inevitable result of Zuo Liangyu's defeat, because Zuo Liangyu's fierceness was removed among the thieves before, and after the thieves came back, the reason why Zhang Li didn't dare to be too arrogant was because of the deterrence of this person and the strong team under this person. Now that there is no deterrence, it is natural to toss and turn hard.
Yang Sichang saw that He Renlong was silent, so he said in a tone of hatred that iron is not steel: "If you don't listen to your words, if you strictly abide by the ten-sided net, how can you be defeated?" ā
He Renlong suddenly, indeed, Xiong Wencan's fiasco at the beginning of Zuo Liangyu's fiasco was also a possible sequelae. So he organized a systematic attack, who knew that the attack would not succeed, but the army would be defeated, it was really impossible to steal chickens, and it was a handful of rice.
"Yang Xiang Mingjian, Yang Xiang Mingjian!"
He Renlong faced Yang Sichang's uncertainties, and he didn't know whether he should say it deep or shallow, so he simply kept agreeing.
"Tell me, whether this reinforcement is sent or not!"
Who knows what to be afraid of, Yang Sichang actually asked He Renlong's opinion, what opinion he can have, it is nothing more than where to fight, but when he asked the head, he couldn't help but say, so he had to answer hard: "The last general thinks, the last general thinks ......."
Just when he was helpless, he suddenly had an idea and thought about it.
"The last general thinks that there is still a branch of people in Lu'an Mansion that has not moved......"
The so-called Lu'an Mansion also has a branch of people, refers to a large number of Ming troops in Shanxi gathered by King Shen in Pingbo here, and it is true that he presided over the situation with Zhu's children when the war was raging, but Yang Sichang was also the Governor of Shanxi's military affairs, and the mobilization of the people and horses of Lu'an Mansion was justified.
Yang Sichang's eyes were also bright, he really didn't expect this, he couldn't help but glance at He Renlong with satisfaction, and secretly commented, this person still has some dry goods in his stomach, and he doesn't pretend to promote him by himself. So with a wave of his hand, after sending He Renlong away, he immediately splashed ink, prepared a paper order, and ordered people to send it to Lu'an Mansion urgently.
At the same time, he also wrote a letter of impeachment, which made people rush 800 miles and sent it to Beijing urgently.
The content of the recital is naturally to impeach Li Xin, abandon the city and flee, and fear the enemy and cowardice. This letter was assigned to the desk of Zhu Youzhen, the son of tomorrow, when he was holding the lamp that day.
At the same time that the cabinet submitted Yang Sichang's remarks to Zhu Youzhen, it also formulated a handling opinion, in view of Li Xin's disregard for the grace of the saint, abandoned the city and fled, feared the enemy's cowardice, and was dismissed from his post and interrogated, handed over to the department for interrogation, and then set a punishment.
Zhu Youzhen slapped the table on the spot and reprimanded someone for ulterior motives.
The courtiers were accustomed to seeing Zhu Youzhen's temper, but they were not very afraid, anyway, it was none of their business, so it was a big deal to stand by. But there are still people arguing on the basis of reason, among which Xue Guoguan and Li Shiwen are the hardest-working, and the imperial history of several metropolitan procuratorates also followed suit.
"Li Xin's general army in Shanxi military affairs, dereliction of duty, even if he is not dismissed from his post and asked, do you have to give an explanation to the people of the world, otherwise, otherwise it will not make the teeth of hundreds of officials cold?"
Li Shi asked to blow his beard and stare at him, and when he talked about Li Xinlai, he trembled with excitement, this guy led people to block his door, which made him a laughing stock in the capital, so as long as he grabbed the handle of this guy, no matter what others said, he would always be a businessman, and he would die.
Zhu Youzhen had already seen a lot of his virtue, and he was upset for a while when he looked at Li Shiwen's excited and generous statement, and he didn't want to deal with him. But Xue Guoguan, who has always been a steady secretary of the military department, even echoed his words.
"Your Majesty, although what Lord Li said is a bit extreme, it can be said that rewards and punishments are clear, and the minister agrees with it!"
Zhu Youzhen's face immediately darkened, didn't this clearly mean that he didn't distinguish between rewards and punishments, but he didn't show weakness and pointed out the ministers under Danqi.
"Fellow ministers, just say that the last time you falsely accused Li Xin, didn't all the ministers also say it one by one? How does it end up? ā
Li Yuefu, the deputy capital of the left vice-capital, originally wanted to echo Xue Guoguan, he stood on the wrong side in the case of falsely accusing Li Xin last time, and this time he planned to be a pioneer in an emergency, so as to accept this petition, who knows which pot the emperor does not open and which pot to mention, and he actually directly said that the complaint was falsely accused, and he Li Yuefu was the activist of Li Xin for mentioning the crime of yƬ at the beginning, but fortunately, the emperor had God to take responsibility for this matter afterwards, and only ended with Liu Yuliang recuperating at home, and it did not affect others. A group of officials involved in false accusations did not even punish Xiong Kaiyuan.
This time, Zhu Youzhen brought up the old matter again, and Li Yuefu could feel the chill in it, so he shrank his neck in fright, and he didn't dare to accept the name.
Zhu Youzhen wants this effect, the last time he was indeed shaken, and he almost let himself be pulled up by his own hands The general was wronged, fortunately it is really like Zhaozhang, no matter how domineering Li Xin is, this person is a fist to him Zhu Youzhen is a fist to Da Ming, which has also been verified in the later operation of the lone army in Taiyuan.
For this reason, he was afraid several times after that, if there was no Mongol Tatar attack, wouldn't the loyal ministers be wronged? Therefore, this time, Zhu Youzhen is determined to be Li Xin's backing, and no matter who talks about white teeth, don't think about curing his crimes. That's why he brought out the last incident again, and it was also characterized as a false accusation, in order to block the mouths of those twittering royal historians, and this trick really worked.
The imperial historians and some of the officials involved really kept silent and no longer helped, but Xue Guoguan was not afraid, he was doing the right thing, and last time, he still said a few words for Li Xin, and this time he was fearless.
"Xiong Kaiyuan's performance is fake, Lord Yang is highly respected, as a cabinet minister, his words will never be false, right?"
This time, Xue Guoguan simply let go of his hands and feet, and brought his words to the surface. Yang Sichang left Beijing, and he could clearly feel that the pressure of the opposition was greater than ever, especially after the defeat of Jing Chen. Now that Yang Sichang has loaded all the gunpowder and shells, there is no need for him to be timid, just beat his mother.
In fact, since the defeat of Lu Xiangsheng and his retention, Yang Sichang's real opponent is only Sun Chengzong, this person has risen from Gaoyang, and it is also started by Li Xin, on the surface, Yang Sichang is attacking Li Xin, but in fact, it is Sun Chengzong behind this person who really wants to deal with it.
Zhu Youzhen's face was even more ugly, he didn't expect Xue Guoguan to be able to talk about this, and he was reasonable, Yang Sichang was also the minister he trusted, and this trick was so exquisite. He looked around at the ministers, hoping that someone would stand up and argue with Xue Guoguan instead of him.
There is really such a person, that is Zhang Sizhi, the secretary of the Cabinet University Clerk's Department. I saw the old guy, trembling and trembling body, first coughed hard, and then went out of the class and said: "Lord Xue's words are wrong, the court's rewards and punishments have always been based on empirical evidence, how can you rely on your empty mouth and white teeth?" What can be done with high morality? Can't he listen and believe? Besides, Lord Yang is in the south and Li Xin is in the north, and the two are so far apart that some situations may not be able to know everything. ā
