Chapter 0127: Return to the Palace
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen took Gao Dewei and Zhao Shujiao with a few relatives, and a line of nine horses! Ride your horse through the night!
Fortunately, the moonlight was good this night, and the horses were all good horses, so the speed was fast!
Wait until the outer city gate of Beijing! The nine horsemen have already fallen to the ground, and Zhao Shujiao is distressed half to death! If it weren't for the emergency military situation! He would never be willing to let the war horse suffer like this! After running for more than four hours in a row, people can afford it, and even if the war horse is good, it can't bear it!
Gao Demeng didn't know where to jump out, saw his brother and Young Master Zhen, and cheered, "Young Master Zhen, eldest brother, you are in a hurry to kill me, I said I was going to find you, the prince said to wait for a day, let me take someone to guard the outer city here, I didn't expect it, I really waited!" ”
Zhu Youzhen is already so tired that he is snorting! Where is the kung fu to talk nonsense with Gao Demeng, waving his hand, "Catch up...... Tight, let people prepare the car! Prepare the horses! Go home! ”
Gao Demeng nodded, and hurriedly followed the instructions of the young master to deploy the horses! The Imperial Forest Army guarding the city saw that it was a person from the prince's mansion, plus there was an emperor's herald, where did they dare to slack off in the slightest, and after a while, they got a few horses and a carriage, and the carriage was actually Lu Xiangsheng's bus!
Since Lu Xiangsheng was derelict in his duties and was shuanggui last time, he has been careful every day and slept soundly! Hearing the report below, the young master was going to use a car, and he was so scared that he immediately sobered up! "Hurry up, they will give whatever they want, and give my carriage to the young master to sit in!"
Although Zhao Shujiao is a general in the army! General level! But if you enter the Jingshi, you are an ordinary official! It's the first time I've seen the Guards so efficient!
At Zhu Youzhen's insistence, Zhao Shujiao got into the carriage, and the rest of the people rode to Wang Chengen's mansion!
It's three or four o'clock in the morning, that is, the car of Lu Xiangsheng of the Imperial Forest Army, plus the guards in Wang Chengen's mansion to open the way, otherwise, who would dare to ride a horse on the streets of Beijing in the middle of the night? You have to be detained by the Five Cities Terracotta Division!
When he arrived at Wang Chengen's mansion, Wang Chengen was on duty in the palace tonight, Zhu Youzhen asked Gao Dewei to rest, and asked Gao Demeng to arrange for Zhao Shujiao and a few other border soldiers to eat and rest a little. You need to run to the backyard immediately! Go through the secret passage and go back to the palace!
Gao De grabbed the young master who was leaving, "Young master, there is one more thing." ”
Zhu Youzhen said anxiously, "Then you hurry up!" ”
Gao Demeng whispered in the ear of the young master, "That Zhang Huiyi's house was robbed!" I only found out today, and I don't dare not tell you. ”
Zhu Youzhen frowned, "Are you okay?" ”
Gao De shook his head violently, "People seem to be fine, but there is no way to send food, think about it, I shouted more than ten brocade guards can't control it, this little ~ girl, I don't know what to do, as soon as she goes back, she will take out the horse, let people slaughter it, distribute it to the neighbors, and take out the white noodles you gave her to the neighbors. Now there were still a large number of beggars surrounding her house and refusing to disperse, and I called many brocade guards to go. ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen Great Khan, what is this! Kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs! "I'm busy right now, I know about this, you go about your own business."
After Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, he strode towards the inner courtyard! State affairs are important, and it is impossible for him to be distracted for the sake of a woman!
"Xu Guowei! Hurry up and call Wang Chengen to come! Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen shouted at the top of his voice while changing his clothes.
Xu Guowei screamed softly and promised loudly, "Yes!" ”
The emperor entered this small courtyard, and as soon as he entered, he didn't come out for two days! Hurry him! But the emperor ordered that no one could enter this courtyard! He asked several times, but there was no movement from the emperor, can he not be worried? reported to the prince once, the prince said to go and see, but went in, but only one person came out, and he didn't dare to ask, can he not be happy when he hears the emperor's voice at this time?
By the time Wang Chengen arrived, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen had already written a bunch of holy decrees crackling! "This is for Zhao Shu's teaching, let him be responsible for the arrangement of the arrival of the grain in Beijing, so that he doesn't have to go back to the front line! This is for Yang Shaoji, the general soldier of Shandong! Let him take all his subordinates and immediately rush to Sun Chengzong's camp outside Luanzhou City within two days, and if he is one day late, he will be punished according to the crime of rebellion! This is for Lu Xiangsheng, so that he doesn't have to worry about the city defense of the Beijing Division, and all the Royal Forest Army that can be mobilized will be transferred! The city defense was taken over by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Yamen Division, and the Imperial History Yamen of the City Patrol! ”
Wang Chengen agreed, and asked, "So, the Imperial Forest Army has been transferred, what if Jiannu comes to attack Jingshi?" The officials have all gone to the city to defend, so who will manage the security of the capital? Now the food shortage is already inextricable! The security is very poor! ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen said decisively, "It's too late!" Let the capital be martial law again, let all the Jinyi guards be dispatched, take over all the security in the capital, and issue a holy decree, within ten days, you can leave the house, but you can't go out of the city! Whoever dares to break the law, even if it is petty theft, fighting, fighting, as long as he commits a little thing, will be punished with capital punishment during these few days of martial law! Slaughter on the spot! ”
Wang Chengen gasped, you dare to issue any holy decree! "The people just want to eat! People are so hungry that they can do anything! You're so heavy! I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right? What if it provokes a popular uprising? ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen frowned, he was already hungry and sleepy, he didn't rest for a day, he ate something last night, and vomited it all! The war horse runs too hard, and it is much more bumpy than making a car!
"What does the civil rebellion have to do with the transfer of the Imperial Guards? The decree is very clear, within ten days, there will be food! Let's just prepare the silver! Shandong Caoliang is about to arrive in Beijing! The Ming army won a big victory in Kaiping! Thousands of Jiannu horses have been captured, and they should arrive in Beijing tomorrow! All issued a proclamation to boost the morale of the people in the capital, how can they be able to get through these ten days, right? Also, didn't I ask Sun Shenxing to organize the Food Bureau, how did you make up the food? You go and issue the decree first, I take a rest, and let Sun Shenxing go to the upper study to see me immediately! As soon as Zhu Youzhen put a bunch of holy decrees into Wang Chengen's arms, he was about to leave this inner courtyard.
Wang Chengen said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, there is more." ”
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen was a little impatient, thinking that Wang Chengen would persuade again, he could not have so much time to explain, "No!" Not allowed, all according to my will! ”
Wang Chengen pointed to the holy decree sent to Yang Shaoji, the general soldier of Shandong, "Your Majesty, you wrote Yang Shaoji as Yang Roast Chicken." ”
Zhu Youzhen sweated profusely, he was dizzy just now, and he wrote faster, the disadvantage of a person's arbitrariness is that he is easy to be negligent, even he, a person who thinks he is very careful, will make some mistakes, "You change it and then send it, why is he called such a name?" ”
When Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen came to the study room that he hadn't come for two days with heavy steps, he found that there was a large backlog of notebooks waiting to be processed by himself.
Zhu Youzhen closed his eyes and listened to the eunuchs read to him one by one, most of them were some of the gentry in the Gyeonggi area that Sun Shenxing had dealt with in the past two days!
"There is no need to read this kind of recital, pick it out, and approve it uniformly, and it is up to Lord Sun to make his own ideas."
"Yes." The eunuch knelt and said cautiously. The eunuchs who worked as secretaries to the emperor were all human spirits, and all of them were of a super high level, and Cao Huachun also came up step by step at the beginning.
After listening to a few more books, the eunuch listened to the emperor and stopped talking, and secretly went to see it, and Emperor Chongzhen, who had never snored, actually snored.
Xu Guowei outside hurriedly came in, made a gesture, asked everyone to go out, and closed the door of the study lightly, there is nothing more important in the world than the emperor sleeping! Looking at the emperor's blackened eyes, Xu Guowei's eyes turned red, the emperor worked too hard! The emperor entered the backyard, he knew that the emperor didn't take women to play, our emperor put his mind on state affairs all day long, and people who were only eighteen years old looked like they were five or six years older than their actual age!
Sun Shenxing hadn't seen the emperor for the past two days, and he was also uneasy, why, because he had to be summoned by the emperor almost every day, and he was responsible for many things, and all of them were important! Many of them have to be discussed with the emperor, waiting for the emperor to finally make an idea! He heard that the emperor had summoned him in the early morning, but fortunately he was sleeping in the executive room of the outer palace, and the old man hurriedly came over to the side of the study.
"Lord Sun, wait a minute, the emperor has just fallen asleep." Xu Guowei said softly.
