Jingshi, Jinluan Palace.

The original solemn Jinluan Hall was like a vegetable market, and the Donglin Party headed by Qian Qianyi and the civil officials of the Jiangnan faction headed by Ruan Dacheng were rolling up their sleeves and spitting and fighting with each other, because the matter in Xi'an Mansion in Shaanxi Province was denounced, and the Donglin Party wrote a letter to impeach Governor Sun Chengzong for inaction, and the acting governor Cao Wenzhao was derelict in his duties, oppressed the local gentry and grain merchants, extorted money and other crimes, and demanded that he be dismissed from his post and sent back to Beijing.

The Jiangnan faction and the Donglin Party are natural rivals, no matter what the reason, no matter whether it is right or wrong, but everything that the other party supports, it will be opposed to it, even if the opposition is invalid, it will disgust you to death, and you will not be allowed to do things smoothly.

Although the gentry and heroes in Xi'an Mansion donated grain to buy a good reputation, they were really disciplined, and they turned around and sold Cao Wenzhao and Sun Chengzong, and sued the Son of Heaven in front of him.

Sun Chengzong is not a member of the Donglin Party, even the military exploits, so that they are jealous and jealous, if he can be brought down, it would be better to send his own people to the throne of the governor of Shaanxi, and the governor of the army, Yuan Chonghuan, who had made military exploits in Liaodong, is the best candidate, even if he can't compete for the position of governor, he must fight for a military governor, and at worst, he must get a military position of military affairs or commander.

As soon as the joint black letter of the Shaanxi gentry was handed over, all the Donglin Party was as excited as chicken blood, how could they miss such a good opportunity, send people to collect various charges of Sun Chengzong and Cao Wenzhao, and then sue this complaint to the Son of Heaven.

Sun Chengzong and Cao Wenzhao were charged with many crimes, oppressing, threatening, extorting and extorting the local gentry, accepting bribes, deducting military salaries, harassing the people, molesting widows on the street, robbing people's daughters, corrupting military discipline, visiting Qinglou without giving money, playing overlord prostitution, etc., they were responsible for guarding Xi'an and other places, but let thieves run in and kill people everywhere, set fire and rob, this is a serious dereliction of duty and must be investigated.

As the military and political governor of Shaanxi Province, he allowed the acting governor to do misdeeds, indiscriminately killing officials, embarrassing subordinates, etc., in short, there were so many crimes that I couldn't count them with my toes.

"That's enough, shut up!"

Zhu Jian, who was sitting on the dragon chair, suddenly stood up and shouted, Wang Ba's momentum suddenly burst out, all the officials shivered excitedly, the Son of Heaven was furious, and the consequences were serious, and the entire Jinluan Hall instantly became silent, and even the small embroidery needles falling to the ground could be clearly heard.

Zhu Jian stretched out his hand, Wang Chengen, who was standing beside him, reached into his sleeve and took out a stack of paper rolls, Zhu Jian took it, shook it hard at His Royal Highness, and then sat back on the dragon chair with a gloomy face.

The officials at the front of the queue took a few steps forward, or reached out to catch the pieces of paper fluttering in the air, or squatted on the ground to pick them up, and hurriedly glanced at them, and the officials of the Donglin Party all changed their faces slightly after seeing them, and then silently passed them to their own people, while the officials of the Jiangnan faction grinned and smiled happily, looking at the Donglin Party officials with mocking eyes.

The stack of pieces of paper recorded are the detailed information of some officials in Xi'an Prefecture, with different ages and ranks, the only thing that is the same is the ending, they were all ordered by Sun Chengzong to click off, and their heads were hung on the city gate to show the public, accused of embezzlement of money and food for disaster relief, etc.

Sun Chengzong's conviction for them is still light, Jinyiwei collected more and heavier evidence of crime, some are more vicious than the evil Jiangyang thieves, and it is not too much to cut off the head a hundred times, this stack of information and paper is collected and sorted out by Jinyiwei and submitted it, and the Donglin Party made an article about it, and this face was pumped and crackled, and the civil officials of the Jiangnan faction laughed crookedly.

"I have clear rewards and punishments, Cao Wenzhao acted as the governor of Xi'an's defense, took the post of negligence, removed him from the post of acting governor, Sun Chengzong repeatedly made military exploits, and settled the displaced people, and pulled out the big moths that plagued the people, not only no fault, but also great merit, the governor of Shaanxi, and the retreat from the dynasty."

Zhu Jian relied on the power of his own Wang Ba's skyrocketing anger, and took advantage of the fact that the old faces of the Donglin Party were hot and still in a daze, and quickly made a decision, and then did not give anyone a reaction, and directly announced that he would get off work, and ran away with oil on the soles of his feet, and swished into the apse.

“……”

The civil and military officials were all speechless, the emperor was relying on his young age, often playing neatly, and the whole little hooligan style, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was blind before he chose him as the heir.

The officials of the Donglin Party were depressed and went out of the hall, the civil officials of the Jiangnan faction and the officials of the Son of Heaven followed behind and secretly had fun, the Donglin Party was powerful and arrogant, and they were usually overwhelmed, and it was rare to see them slapped by the emperor today, which made them have a comfortable feeling of raising their eyebrows.

When the envoy read the holy decree in Xi'an Mansion, Shaanxi, Sun Chengzong, who had already known the result, still couldn't help but hold his long beard, and Cao Wenzhao, who was removed from Xi'an Mansion, also grinned, without the slightest bit of unhappiness, the military position of Acting Governor Xi'an Mansion was just to facilitate him to extort money in Xi'an Mansion, it doesn't matter if he was withdrawn or not, he could be promoted to the chief military officer and would have been secretly happy N back, strictly speaking, in terms of military merits and qualifications, he had to stay up for N years if he wanted to be promoted to chief military officer, and the emperor opened the back door for him.

After Cao Wenzhao handed over the defense of Xi'an Prefecture, he led his Guangping army to leave Xi'an Mansion and began to sweep the robbers and robbers in the nearby prefectures and counties, the existence of these robbers and robbers did affect the safety of the people and merchants, and the other main task was to see if Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others could be caught.

Cao Wenzhao, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting and others all received the same secret order, they didn't understand why the emperor reluctantly wanted to kill these people, but for the promotion of the official level, the reward of 10,000 taels of silver, how could they gamble on luck, besides, ending those robbers' nests is also considered a war exploit, and they can also get some gold, silver and jewelry and other valuable things, why not do it?

Of course, the three-way army seems to have no plan to sweep around, but in fact, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army wandered near the junction of Shaanxi and northern Shaanxi, and Sun Ziting's partial division wandered around Shaanxi and Shanxi, the purpose was to prevent the remnants of the people's army such as Wang Jiayin and Gao Yingxiang from entering northern Shaanxi or Shanxi to cause sabotage, while Cao Wenzhao's Guangping army launched a dragnet sweep and drove the thieves to the middle.

At the same time, Qin Liangyu, the governor of Sichuan Shizhu and the chief military officer, was also ordered to mobilize, and led 5,000 famous white pole soldiers to move to the border between Guangyuan and Bazhong to prevent thieves from entering Sichuan to make trouble.

Although Zhu Jian's impression of Sichuan has the famous Qin Liangyu in charge, but there are a lot of wars, Qin Liangyu has even suffered a few defeats, Sichuan, which has the reputation of the country of abundance, was turned upside down by the murderous demon Zhang Xianzhong, and it was miserable, as if Sichuan still had Tusi rebelled, and was later defeated by Qin Liangyu and the Ming army from all walks of life, but the successive wars also made Sichuan vitality greatly damaged, so Zhang Xianzhong was given an opportunity.

Zhu Jian, who is open, doesn't want Sichuan to be turbulent, and he also knows the various reasons why Qin Liangyu is famous and the white pole soldiers with extremely high combat power still suffer defeats, there are too many pig teammates, and the white pole soldiers are fighting alone, there are no reinforcements outside, and there is no grain and grass inside, how can they not be defeated?

According to historical records, Qin Liangyu was ordered to go on the expedition, but the local administrator refused to provide food on the grounds of lack of food, Qin Liangyu had to buy grain out of his own pocket, and even when the war situation deteriorated, the white pole soldiers suffered heavy losses, and they needed to return to their hometowns to recruit the young men of the tribe to save the defeat, the top boss actually refused her request.

Zhu Jian didn't imagine that his predecessor had made the only female chief military officer of the Ming Empire, Qin Liangyu, who was good at recruiting and fighting, and loyal Qin Liangyu miserable, so he asked Wang Chengen to pick a more reliable eunuch to go to the Sichuan Ordnance Bureau to supervise, and sent Jinyiwei and Dongchang people to supervise each other, and the excellent Lu Mi guns and grenades produced day and night were given priority to equip Qin Liangyu's white pole army.

However, due to the backwardness of science and technology, production equipment and many other reasons, the productivity was low, and the White Pole Army was only equipped with more than 300 sophisticated front-loading Lu Mi guns, ten Fran machine guns, and a lot of hand grenades.
