321 At this time, Sima Huan was worried (3)
The meeting between the three of them in the small courtyard of the Dewang Mansion was quickly summarized as the guiding spirit and conveyed to the editorial office of the "Huangming Bulletin".
As the tongue of the emperor, this nascent newspaper not only has the power to republish the holy decree, but also the vane of today's court. Because of the helm of an old minister like Li Banghua, even if the officials of the Donggong Department are silent, in the eyes of outsiders, the Donglin South Party is also at a disadvantage of being suppressed.
No one in the court will sympathize with the weak, as long as you stand firmly on the upper hand, there will be enough people to join you. As the so-called icing on the cake is the icing on the cake, everyone has it, and there is no charcoal in the snow.
Chongzhen originally thought that the "Huangming Bulletin" was his son's seizure of power from the hands of the General Administration Department and the occupation of the road. Thinking about himself, he was almost hollowed out, and even the six ministries fell, let alone a general secretary? I simply acquiesced. Later, when I saw the "Metropolitan Procuratorate Asks for Lishu", I realized that this kind of newspaper is not a document that transmits news like Di Bao, but also a sharp weapon to compete for the world's speech.
With such an understanding, Chongzhen naturally couldn't let it go, and summoned Li Banghua to ring the alarm at the moment, and at the same time ordered the chamberlain to submit it to the "Emperor's Notice". Later, I heard that there were also people in Jiangnan who had obtained the qualification of newspaper publishing, so I asked the inner servant to send them together. Nowadays, there are three kinds of newspapers that are often in the imperial case: "Huangming Bulletin", "Liudu Weekly", and "Quyuan Miscellaneous Tan".
Compared with the petty family spirit of "Liudu Weekly", Chongzhen still feels that "Huangming Bulletin" is the most appetizing, and even feels guilty about Li Banghua because of this, regretting that he did not summon this capable minister into the cabinet as soon as possible.
As for "Quyuan Miscellaneous Tan", there are no national events in it, only market stories and new songs, which are purely to look at and relieve boredom.
"Ridiculous! How can such a thing appear in the national newspaper! ”
On the sixth day of November of the seventeenth year, Emperor Chongzhen was having breakfast while reading today's "Emperor's Notice". Immediately thunder was furious.
Empress Zhou, who was dining together today, also put down the "Quyuan Miscellaneous Tan" in her hand, and took the "Emperor's Notice" from the case, wanting to see what was the big rebellion that made the emperor so angry.
The bold black title jumped into the field of vision after the week, and it was clearly printed: "Dongyu Barbarian Customs Do Not Change." Uncle and nephew compete to marry Huang Taiji's widow". To the left of this title is a bigger and thicker title: "The Ming Dynasty is telling Erman, how can people often tolerate rebellion!" 》
In this front-page newsletter, the story of Dolgon and Hauge competing to marry Huang Taiji's pseudo-concubine Zhuang was written, and at the same time made a statement: As a model of morality and ethics in the world, the de jure ruler of Nuer Gandusi, the Ming court will never recognize this incest, rebellion, and vulgar behavior. Dolgon and Hauge are strongly urged to reflect on themselves. Cut off the beast's thoughts.
This manuscript was personally reviewed by Zhu Cihong, and even personally edited it, adding a lot of Qing court stories: for example, Dai Shan had an affair with the Fucha clan and cuckolded his son Nurhachi; Another example is Hauge's fornication with Dolgon's mother Abahai and cuckolding his son Huang Taiji.
These things are not secrets within Jiannu, but the Han people don't know about them. Although Zhu Cihong does not know about it, and some of them are likely to be erotic stories fabricated by later generations, the public opinion war was not originally used as a weapon of "truth".
Such a newsletter that the vindicators could not look at directly. Naturally, it would make Emperor Chongzhen, who had a serious aura of Wenqing, very angry.
In particular, he regarded the "Huangming Bulletin" as a variant of the Di Bao, and this kind of text appeared in a grand manner. It's simply humiliating.
You can't even see or listen to things that don't conform to etiquette, let alone say them and discuss them and make them public?
"Chuan Li Bang...... Wait, pass on the crown prince! Chongzhen's anger did not subside.
I can't bear to read it after the week. He glanced at it and threw it aside, which was quite devastating.
Zhu Cihong had already had breakfast before greeting him in the morning, and he had dealt with a lot of political affairs. Went to the living room.
Chongzhen didn't talk nonsense, and said bluntly: "This kind of text, how can it be recorded here!" ”
Zhou Hou also complained: "How many people have to read the newspaper when they get up early, even in the harem, there are also people in the harem who read it, you let people log these things, isn't it disgusting!" ”
"Father," Zhu Cihong was quite helpless, "It's just that Dongyu is doing such beastly things outside the pass, and there is still chaos in my old capital of Shenjing, how can my sons sit idly by?" If we do not tell the world about their deeds and show our indignation, our dynasty will be regarded as indulgent by future generations. ”
Although he knew that the crown prince was always justified and quite unreasonable and cunning, the emperor's dissatisfaction still dropped a lot.
"Really?" Chongzhen asked.
"This matter was spread from Jingshi to Jiangnan, and from Jiangnan to Shandong, and the whole world knew about it." Zhu Cihong confused the order of transmission, and said with an innocent face: "Instead of letting the people of the world talk nonsense, it is better for the country to announce to the Quartet and be upright." ”
"I heard that the woman who is going to marry is only the biological mother of the puppet emperor Fulin, not the Huangtaiji Palace, so can the Queen Mother of the Puppet Palace sit back and watch?" Chongzhen attaches great importance to the legal system, because it involves the complexity of the title, so he didn't say much in the past, and now he has accepted such an information bombardment, which is inevitably a little abnormal.
"The puppet Qingzheng Palace Empress Dowager is the aunt of this puppet Empress Dowager who is going to marry," Zhu Cihong said bluntly, "My aunt, nephew, and colleague can do it, what else can't I do?" ”
Queen Zhou turned her face away, and gently stroked her chest with one hand, quite disgusting.
Chongzhen was also shocked when he heard this, and his face showed a sad look: "This kind of perverse wild species actually occupies the land of my ancestors, what face do I have, I, and I have to meet the two ancestors!" ”
"Father," Zhu Cihong also felt that he had used too much medicine, and hurriedly persuaded, "After Shenjing has washed away the bloody flesh, it still does not lose the holy land of the Chinese people, isn't this exactly what Emperor Taizu Gao did back then?" ”
Chongzhen knew that his son was comforting him. Taizu recovered China from under the iron hooves of the Mongols, but he himself was a fugitive king who lost his temple, how can it be compared? However, he was reluctant to uncover this kind of scar himself, so he changed the topic and said, "How is the front-line war now?" Winter is coming, are the soldiers' winter clothes ready? ”
Zhu Cihong responded: "It was already sent out last month." ”
In November during the Xiaoice River period, if you don't wear winter clothes, you will freeze to death even if you are in Guangdong.
"When spring begins, I'm afraid there will be another big war." Chongzhen made a strategic prophecy, and also reminded his son not to be careless.
"No, it won't." Zhu Cihong shook his head and said: "When spring begins, you have to be busy with spring ploughing, and you have no time to fight." ”
Chongzhen was about to lay out an argument for his argument, but Zhu Cihong continued: "Erchen will send troops to fight against them next month, and the New Year will be over. ”
The entire hall was silent.
Zhou Hou saw that the father and son were discussing military affairs, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it. But these days, the emperor's authority has gradually dissipated, and she also has a more desire to understand the world's major events, so she just sat still and didn't leave.
"Next month, the Yellow River will freeze solid," Zhu said, "and the grain in the hands of the people will gradually run out." It stands to reason that there is no way to fight. He first gaged the emperor's mouth, so as not to expose Emperor Wenqing's strategic ignorance again.
"But our army has logistical support, and there is no need to requisition food locally, so the march has an advantage that cannot be compared with the rebellion and the Qing captives." Zhu Cihong said: "And when fighting in winter, what you fight for is supply logistics, otherwise it is easy to cause non-combat attrition - that is, the soldiers will die of cold and starvation." In addition, the weather is freezing and there is no rain in the drought, so it is a good time for our arms to flourish. ”
"If I don't take advantage of the winter to beat them hard, it will only affect spring ploughing after the beginning of spring." Zhu Cihong concluded.
The launching of the winter offensive was first proposed by the General Staff, which can be regarded as talking about Zhu Cihong's heart.
Today, the output of artillery has reached a shocking 10 guns per day, and the first-pass rate has reached an incredible 90 percent. The daily production capacity of flintlock torches has also reached 120 units, which can stably supply 3,000 assembly units per month. On the contrary, Xiao Tugeng's firearms unit was too small, and the personnel training could not keep up.
It's just one and a half provinces of the Ming Dynasty, and the war potential that broke out is enough to make people tremble, not to mention that now with Zhu Cihong at the helm, the entire North China has embarked on the high-speed channel of war. (To be continued......)
