Chongzhen was worried about how to reward Shen Shuren so that he could work harder, and Zhu Changshu, the king of Lu, delivered the Chen Qing performance at this time, of course, to give Chongzhen a step down.

Chongzhen quickly browsed, and when he saw that King Lu was sincerely grateful to Shen Shuren's reinforcements for relieving the siege of Shangqiu City, saving them from the palace, and saving Zhu Yousong, the little king of Xiaofu who was exiled with everyone in King Lu's mansion, Chongzhen also rarely felt a sense of indebtedness in his heart.

And King Lu mentioned that in the chaos, his daughter and Chongzhen's cousin Zhu Yuchan was almost lost, but fortunately Shen Shuren rescued her, and it was inevitable that she would be bumped into in the war.

For the name festival of the whole county, please ask Chongzhen to give marriage, and give Shen Shuren the surname of the country as an additional reward for military merits, so that it is not only convenient for Zhu Yuchan's children to be surnamed Zhu in the future, but also to avoid the embarrassment of Shen Shuren being regarded as a son-in-law.

In King Lu's letter, of course, he also emphasized that he had already gone to Hefei and discussed it with Shen Tingyang, and the Shen family had no objections, as long as His Majesty gave him a gift.

"This is not bad, originally Zhou Yanru Chen Xinjia said that if Shen Shuren can break the siege and Kaifeng and repel Li Zicheng, but it is not appropriate to suddenly rise to the governor, at least he can be knighted.

Now be a favor, first give the country surname, then knighthood, and then marriage by the way, which can be regarded as worthy of the additional military exploits of Shen Shuren. The Governor will talk about it next year...... A few days ago, I heard Qin Liangyu ask for help to the military department, Zhang Xianzhong rekindled into Sichuan, if it is really a big trouble, you have to count on him to contribute again, and the governor should stay until the back to give it. ”

Chongzhen was secretly worried in his heart.

After learning that Shen Shuren had made such a great achievement, he actually wanted to recruit this important minister who could fight to Beijing again, and asked the right person in person, asking whether the national policy of leveling thieves and captives should be adjusted.

Moreover, Shen Shuren is so capable of fighting, it is impossible for Chongzhen to say that he is not worried about whether the other party's loyalty will change at all.

However, it is Shen Shuren who has so far, and he has behaved "He will fight wherever you want", obviously he was almost kicked at the door after beating Zhang Xianzhong halfway through, so he immediately put down what he was doing and went north to Henan, and Shen Shuren did not hesitate to come.

This kind of behavior of listening to tunes and listening to propaganda is really beyond reproach.

Compared with Zuo Liangyu in the same period, as well as He Renlong, who was beheaded before, Shen Shuren is definitely loyal.

And since Hong Chengchou sent away most of the Liaodong Border Army and the Jiubian Elite at the beginning of the year, Chongzhen has very few generals in the south who can be mobilized.

Zuo Liangyu is just one of the negative examples, and it does not mean that other Liu Liangzuo and Liu Zeqing can be moved.

Even at this time in history, Chongzhen couldn't even move Wu Sangui anymore-

Originally, at this time, Chen Xinjia was already dead, which also meant that the peace talks were completely broken, and Huang Taiji immediately sent troops from Jimen to enter the customs the next month after Chen Xinjia's death, and ravaged Beizhili for half a year. The captive Ming army, the total population of the common people totaled 400,000 people, hundreds of thousands of livestock, more than 2 million taels of gold and silver, grain, grass and other property were not counted, and the history is called the Renwu Change.

In the Renwu Change, Chongzhen should have dispatched Wu Sangui back to defense, just like when Huang Taiji broke through Jimen more than ten years ago, Yuan Chonghuan was transferred back to defense.

But when Wu Sangui arrived, it was already half a year after the Qing army sent troops (the Qing army Chongzhen sent troops in October of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, and entered the gate at the end of the month, and Wu Sangui Chongzhen led his troops to Beijing in early May of the sixteenth year) It took half a year for the Qing army to return to Beijing from Shanhaiguan, and Chongzhen didn't dare to let go of one.

He also entertained Wu Sangui with good food and drink in the Wuying Palace, gave him a sword of Shangfang, and said good words to comfort him. Wu Sangui only said that he fought a battle with the Qing army at Wang Baoshan in Ningyuan and repelled an offensive by the Qing army, and he did not dare to come to the capital as soon as possible because of the pressure of the Qing army and the fear of the defeat of the Liaoxi army, and Chongzhen also accepted this explanation.

All this, although now because of the butterfly effect, because Chen Xinjia is not dead for the time being, and Huang Taiji has not torn his face to enter the customs again, it can also be shown that Chongzhen has no control over the courtiers with heavy troops after Hong Chengchou surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.

If it is changed to the second year of Chongzhen, when Yuan Chonghuan is rescued, let alone half a year late, even if it is only a month late, the opponent's head can fall to the ground, and even Ling Chi will be executed.

With Zuo Liangyu and Wu Sangui and other generals as references, Shen Shuren is already loyal, where does Chongzhen dare to expect anything extra?

In case the other party does not come after the summons, it will leave a crack in vain, but it may affect the whole body, so that the authority of the imperial court will be completely lost, and Zuo Liangyu and Wu Sangui will become more and more bold, and Chongzhen can't afford to gamble at all.

It is better to put Shen Shuren as a positive model all the time, so as to deter Zuo Liangyu and Wu Sangui.

In Chongzhen's heart, the danger of Shen Shuren must be much smaller than that of other arrogant soldiers.

After such comprehensive consideration, the option of "Summoning Shen Shuren" was completely shelved in Chongzhen's heart.

Just give him a good surname and give him a hanger, so as to see the after-effects.

……

Chongzhen had a draft of how to deal with Uncle Luwang's request, and Zhou Yanru and Chen Xinjia were also summoned to Wenhua Hall to formally discuss the matter.

On the basis of the information known yesterday, Chongzhen also talked about the matter of Luwangfu, ensured that the information of all parties was symmetrical, and then asked about countermeasures.

After Zhou Yanru considered it thoroughly, he said, "Your Majesty Shengming." This time, it is claimed that the annihilation of the 200,000 invading army, close to half of the invading army, even if there is a suspicion of false reporting, it is really a great achievement, at least the Kaifeng hub will no longer be threatened for the time being.

But as agreed, the title of Count Krup, Shen Shuren, was given, and the surname was given, and then married to King Lu's mansion. ”

Chen Xinjia waited for Zhou Yanru to finish speaking, thought about and digested this information for a while, and then added with understanding: "The minister also seconded the proposal, in addition, Your Majesty can remember that five days ago, Qin Liangyu, the chief soldier of Shizhu stationed in Fengjie, reported an urgent document and sent it to the military department, saying that Zhang Xianzhong had made a detour from Banzhou (Zunyi) into Sichuan, and he had resurged, and he needed to ask for help......

Before Chen Xinjia finished speaking, Chongzhen immediately nodded: "Of course I know about this, you want Shen Shuren to directly lead troops to quell the rebellion?" ”

Chen Xinjia hurriedly added: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister wants to say that today I just got the latest news from Sichuan, compared with the urgent report five days ago, the one just delivered today said that it has been confirmed that Zhang Xianzhong has besieged Chongqing...... Together with King Rui, they were also surrounded in Chongqing.

The minister did not dare to deceive, but with the long way from Sichuan, this urgent report was sent eleven days ago, so is Chongqing still in the hands of the imperial court...... The ministers didn't dare to judge. Even when the imperial army arrives, there will inevitably be more erosion and worsening.

From this point of view, Shao Jiechun, the governor of Sichuan, is really incompetent and has many loopholes, and must be replaced. No matter whether Shao Jiechun is alive or not when the imperial court mission is sent to Sichuan, it is not his turn to serve as the governor of Sichuan again to turn the tide, and another person can be selected to take over. ”

The Sichuan side initially discovered that Zhang Xianzhong's report of crossing the mountain into the Sichuan Basin was indeed two or three days earlier than Shen Shuren's good news in Chen County—this is also a good day, because when Shen Shuren broke out of Chen County and resumed contact with the outside world, Zhang Mingzhen told him that four days before he broke through, Qin Liangyu had already sent a distress letter through Zhang Huangyan.

When Qin Liangyu asked for help from Shen Shuren, he would also send people to the capital, but on the first urgent report, the information was not very complete, and it did not say how much the battle situation had deteriorated. After that, it needs to be reported every few days and updated in a timely manner.

As for Shao Jiechun, the governor of Sichuan, in history, this person should have been finished a year ago, and now he can do Chongzhen for fifteen years, which is already regarded as the butterfly effect of Shen Shuren that made him earn it in vain - it was Shen Shuren who weakened Zhang Xianzhong, so that Zhang Xianzhong failed to enter Sichuan in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, and it dragged on for an extra year, and Shao Jiechun's tenure lasted for one more year.

It's just that the disaster can't be avoided, and the time to come has finally come.

He failed to block the various dangers in the Sichuan Basin, and concentrated the Qin Liangyu Department and only guarded the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River in the case of insufficient troops, causing Zhang Xianzhong to find a way to infiltrate the plains from other mountains, and this negligence has doomed him to be questioned by Chongzhen even if he survives.

Chongzhen listened to Chen Xinjia's report on the latest situation of the mess in Sichuan, and he became more and more anxious. Yesterday, I learned that the joy brought by the victory of the Shen Shuren was also washed away by a small half.

He smiled depressedly and bitterly for a while, and sighed: "Chen Qing is also against Shen Shuren's promotion to governor, but he wants him to take care of Sichuan's pursuit and suppression affairs, do you still want Shen Shuren to replace Shao Jiechun as the governor of Sichuan?"

Between the governor of Sichuan and the governor of Huguang, it can only be regarded as a flat tone, is he willing to take office? Moreover, Sichuan is isolated from the world, and after I go, it is even more difficult to communicate with the imperial court......"

Chen Xinjia hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty has misunderstood, how could the minister suggest that Shen Shuren be the governor of Sichuan." After all, Shen Shuren will have to take care of the two thieves in Sichuan and Henan in the future.

Now Henan doesn't need him, it's nothing more than a thief digging up the Yellow River. The land of Kaifeng was flooded all around, the roads were cut off, and Li Zicheng was clinging to Chenggao and the dangerous passes of Bishui, and it was impossible for the Huguang soldiers to go north to help the war.

But after spring ploughing next year, in case the situation changes, or with the talent of Shen Shuren, Zhang Xianzhong can quickly make a decision, and then he may have to re-adjust Shen Shuren to fight the thieves. Therefore, the position of the Shen Shuren is really not suitable to be moved, so it can be placed in Huguang in order to respond flexibly.

The minister thought that he could choose another cadre who had worked closely with Shen Shuren and could be kind to him, preferably his boss, as the governor of Sichuan, and then from Shen Shuren's subordinates, he would be promoted to one or two, or for the prefect of Chengdu, or for the Sichuan military preparation, so they would ask Shen Shuren to borrow troops to help in the war, and Shen Shuren would probably be happy to send troops.

His Majesty gave Shen Shuren another will, urging him to support his neighbors, and promised to grant the governor of Huguang after pacification, and even the governor of several provinces across Jingyi, and he was famous for sending troops - this method is just like the time when His Majesty considered letting Hou Sui supervise the teacher to mobilize Zuo Liangyu, the general truth, but unfortunately Zuo Liangyu and Hou Sui were not angry, so they could not make the trip. ”

After Chongzhen heard this, his eyes also lit up, and he felt that Chen Xinjia's idea was really an old man seeking the country.

In history, when Yang Sichang died in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, Chongzhen released Hou Sui, the former household secretary who had been imprisoned for seven years, and went to Henan as the governor to supervise the teacher, just because Hou Sui was Zuo Liangyu's favor, and Zuo Liangyu was promoted that year. Zuo Liangyu was also forced to go north to Zhuxian Town to fight Li Zicheng after Hou Sui was released.

Of course, in this life, Hou Sui died directly in prison, and he was not used at all. On the one hand, Yang Sichang himself died later, and he didn't need Hou Sui to restrain Zuo Liangyu.

On the other hand, it was also the Hou family and Zuo Liangyu who were embarrassed, and they offended Shen Shuren earlier, and Shen Shuren certainly would not let Hou Sui and Hou Fangyu's father and son have a good time.

However, Chongzhen understands this idea, so he understands it as soon as he listens to it.
