Qian Qianyi anxiously paced around the room, even though there were already five maids fanning the wind desperately.

But he was still too hot to work, and cold sweat broke out on his head.

From the moment he knew that His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty had entered the city of Nanjing, he knew that his plan had failed.

So now Qian Qianyi is naturally flustered.

At this time, the servant he sent out to inquire about the news ran in, wiping his sweat and panting: "Master, I'm back." ”

"What's going on, what is the whereabouts of Wu Weiye and Hou Fangyu, and what happened to the Dantu, has Your Majesty found out anything?"

Qian Qianyi hurriedly asked the servant and hurriedly held his forehead.

This kind of thing that is enough to affect the lives of his whole family, he is naturally worried.

"Back to the master, the small one can't get out of the city, and a group of officers and soldiers with a northern accent suddenly came outside, they surrounded the city of Nanjing, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, saying that His Majesty wanted to enter the city, so it was to be martial law, if it wasn't for the small ones running fast, they almost took down the small ones as slave spies."

After the servant answered, Qian Qianyi's heart became even more nervous.

"How good is this, how good is this!"

Qian Qianyi was thinking about it, and Liu Ru came over from the inside: "Sir, what's wrong?" Your Majesty has successfully entered the city, and the foundation of the Ming Dynasty has not collapsed, isn't this a good thing? Now that the national crisis is in need of the ministers of Bandang to save the crisis, maybe Your Majesty will revive you, why didn't Mr. ask the old men of the Sixth Department of Nanjing, but why are you beating your hands here? ”

"Liu Jun doesn't need to say it anymore, this matter is all because Qian was confused for a while, and he was confused for a while!"

Qian Qianyi was talking, and a person's voice came from outside: "There is a will, Qian Qianyi, the former Zhan Shi and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, is entering the Hajj at noon, and with the gift of the original official taste, I will see this!" ”

Qian Qianyi was so frightened that he hurriedly asked the person who announced the decree to come in, but the person who announced the decree said that it was an oracle and was in a hurry to return to the palace to resume his life, so naturally he did not give Qian Qianyi a chance to inquire about the news.

……

The city of Nanjing is very hot in June.

Qian Qianyi, who was rich and timid, was shivering with cold at this time.

Qian Qianyi didn't know why His Majesty was able to go to Nanjing safely, and he didn't know whether the secret incident he planned had happened, and if it did, whether His Majesty had already known that this matter was done by himself.

Although Qian Qianyi knew that he was the leader of Donglin, he could be said to have a high status in the entire Jiangnan Shilin.

But in front of His Majesty, who represents the supreme power of the world, he is just an ant.

So even if he is killed by Zhu Youzhen now, he doesn't have any power to resist.

is different from Qian Qianyi.

Other civil and military officials in Nanjing couldn't stand such a scorching sun.

In the past, they sat in their igloo and ate watermelon at this hot time of summer, but now at this time, they have to enter the palace to meet them.

As everyone knows, Zhu Youzhen wants to take revenge on these Nanjing civil and military officials who do not know how to fear the imperial power.

In fact, it was Zhu Youzhen who wanted to give these civil and military officials in Nanjing a dismissal, so that these officials who were accustomed to being pampered in Nanjing could reflect on themselves.

……

So far

Zhu Youzhen's trip to the south can be regarded as an official end.

The situation in the entire seventeen years of Chongzhen has also undergone tremendous changes compared with the original history.

The military threat of the warlords of the four towns in Jiangbei was basically not a big threat to the imperial court.

And Zhu Youzhen, as Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, arrived in Nanjing, so he did not waste unnecessary time preparing for war because of such internal strife as the battle over the national capital.

The whole empire did not become a mess because of this.

After all, the emperor is still there, and Zhu Youzhen can unite the forces of various ministries and carry out foreign wars.

Even if a warlord like Zuo Liangyu no longer looks down on most high-ranking civil officials, he does not dare to openly oppose him and Zhu Youzhen.

Even because of the appearance of Zhu Youzhen, many officials have increased their confidence in reviving the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, although there were frightened and frightened Nanjing civil and military officials like Qian Qianyi, there were also many officials who showed excitement, and they began to look forward to turning the tide with the Ming Emperor in Nanjing City and rejuvenating the Ming Dynasty.

……

At this time, the inner court had not yet been built.

Many systems closely related to the royal family, such as the internal official supervisor, the Shangyi supervisor, and even the imperial dining room and the imperial pharmacy, have not yet been recreated.

Therefore, as the newly promoted eunuch Han Shoujing, who was promoted to the chief eunuch Bingbi, he could only be the chief steward for one time, and together with the queen Zhou, he began to look for eunuchs to form the twenty-four yamen of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youzhen only controlled the appointment of the two powerful inner court departments, the celebrant and the imperial horse supervisor, and then threw away his hand and let the queen Zhou and Han Shoujing busy.

The defense of the palace and the imperial city, as well as the outer city, was naturally rearranged by the officials of the Imperial Horse Supervisor He Xin and the United Military Department.

And he, Zhu Youzhen, himself is now sitting in the igloo in Fengxian Palace, eating simple pasta made by the imperial chef to satisfy his hunger.

Zhu Guobi, the Duke of Baoguo, Liu Kongzhao, the Sincerity Bo, Wang Duo, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, Gao Hongtu, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Officials, Zhang Shenyan, Qian Qianyi, Zheng Sanjun, Xu Shilin, and other officials wearing court clothes have all walked in one after another.

Seeing that His Majesty Zhu Youzhen had not yet appeared, these officials also began to discuss, speculating about what His Majesty would do next, whether to reward them in a big way, reappoint officials, and punish a few officials who only welcomed the prince but not His Majesty.

"Do you know, now that Nanjing City is still under martial law, Gonggong He of the Imperial Horse Prison has sent people to secretly monitor the yamen and the mansions of us officials, I heard that it seems that His Majesty encountered murder on the way, so he is so nervous."

"Yes, who is so bold to murder the emperor, Da Ming has no Jingshi, but there can be no more emperor, who is so hateful, if you let me know, I will peel his skin!"

Qian Qianyi couldn't help but shudder when he heard this, and smiled awkwardly.

Zhu Youzhen walked out at this time, looking at these officials in purple python and red robes, their faces were covered with beads of sweat, and he was also relieved a lot:

"How is the sun outside, can you Aiqing suffer from it?"

The civil and military officials were silent at this time, they didn't know how to answer, in order to be in line with His Majesty's wishes, so they all waited for the bold to come out and speak, so as to find out what His Majesty the Ming Emperor was going to do.

"Your Majesty, it's such a hot day, the officials are protégés of the Son of Heaven, and most of them are virtuous and promising people, Your Majesty, you shouldn't insult the countrymen so much", at this time, Gu Xiancheng's grandson, that is, Gu Lianggong, the governor of Nanzhili, stood up and habitually came to admonish directly.

"Drag it down, cut it!"

Zhu Youzhen only said this.

Gu Lianggong couldn't help but be surprised!

He just wanted to use this to make a name for his outspokenness in the court, but he didn't expect His Majesty to kill him without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, what Weichen means is just that Your Majesty spares your life!"

Before Gu Lianggong finished speaking, he was dragged out by the personal guards of the Second Guards Army, and he clicked it directly.

The officials were dumbfounded in an instant, they didn't expect His Majesty to suddenly say that he would kill him, so that no one dared to complain about being exposed to the sun just now.

"If you are all virtuous, why did my people arrive in Nanjing more than ten days ago, and you didn't go out of the city to Zhenjiang to meet you, but there is still me in your eyes?"

After Zhu Youzhen said at this time, he asked again: "Qian Qianyi, just talk about you, do you have a monarch in your eyes?" ”
