Yan Yingyuan looked at Huang Zongxi in astonishment.

The heart said Huang Taichong, what's the matter with you, all these words are said to the saint?

Huang Zongxi replied with a slightly calm look, and said that the saint is more enlightened than you imagined.

Only then did Yan Yingyuan reply: "Back to the Holy Lord, the student did discuss this matter with Brother Taichong, and indeed thought that this move was very necessary, because the dragon gave birth to nine sons, all of which are different, and no one dares to guarantee that the future emperor of my Ming Dynasty will be as holy as the Holy Lord and the crown prince, so at this time, it is necessary to rely on the supervision mechanism to ensure the people-oriented thinking." ”

Chongzhen said: "I agree with what you said, but now is not the time. ”

Yan Yingyuan agreed: "It is indeed not the time to revise the Emperor Ming's ancestral teachings. ”

"But the supervision mechanism for you diligent princes can be done first." Chongzhen said, "Lest you Qinwang scholars also become silverfish like those civil officials." ”

"Since then, I have only thought about the welcome and send-off in the officialdom."

"From then on, I just thought about giving good colleagues, catering to superiors and then climbing up."

After saying this, Chongzhen said again: "I plan to set up a supervision department in the internal affairs department, and the two of you are the best candidates in the supervision department, and in the future, I will hand over the heavy responsibility of supervising the prince of Qin to the two of you." ”

Huang Zongxi agreed very simply: "The student will definitely stick to his original intention and live up to his holy life." ”

Yan Yingyuan said with some embarrassment: "Holy Lord, can students not give this to the matter?" ”

"Why, you don't want to?" Chongzhen couldn't help but be a little surprised, although the supervision department gave a low grade in the matter, but the power in his hands was very great, and the entire internal affairs department had to accept the supervision of the supervision department.

This is actually the Feng Xian official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he is a senior official.

Yan Yingyuan was really reluctant, and whispered: "Holy Lord, students are more willing to lead thousands of troops and horses to gallop on the battlefield. ”

"Okay." This result was not only unexpected by Chongzhen, but also reasonable, in the end, it was Yan Yingyuan.

At that moment, Chongzhen said again: "In this case, you and Xu Yingwei will serve as the military department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." ”

"The military department is in the middle of the matter?" Yan Yingyuan's expression moved and asked, "Holy Lord, is the Internal Affairs Office going to set up a military department?" ”

"Yes." Chongzhen said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs will not only transfer the military department, but the military department will become the largest department, and I will soon have a task to hand over to you." ”

Yan Yingyuan suddenly perked up.

Chongzhen said again: "Yan Yingyuan, you go to Xu Yingwei now, and then screen out the soldiers you think are better at leading troops from more than 6,000 Qinwang soldiers." ”

Yan Yingyuan said: "Dare to ask the Holy Lord, how many people need to be screened?" ”

"A thousand." Chongzhen said, "After screening out, I will return to Nanjing with me, and you won't have to discuss other articles on the way, and you will focus on military books and battle strategies." ”

"If there is still more time, let's discuss the classic examples of the past and present."

After saying this, he said: "There is also the battle of Shanyang under your command, which can also be taken out to analyze one or two, and tell other scholars what you thought at the beginning." ”

"The students receive the oracle." Yan Yingyuan turned around and left.

Chongzhen said to Huang Zongxi again: "Huang Zongxi, there are more than 6,000 Qinwang scholars, of which 3,000 will stay in Xuzhou, 1,000 will be filled into the military department, and 1,000 scholars have been seconded to Ying Tianfu, but you can give priority to selecting 300 people from them to serve as the supervision department." ”

There are also more than 700 scholars, and Chongzhen plans to be assigned to the Internal Affairs Office as an errand.

After a pause, he said: "However, when selecting people, you need to pay attention to the fact that these three hundred scholars must be of good character, tenacious will, and have excellent ability to change, otherwise I am afraid that it will be difficult to be qualified for the important task of supervision." ”

Huang Zongxi shook his head to the ground and said solemnly: "The student respectfully receives the holy message. ”

After sending Huang Zongxi away, Chongzhen called Wang Chengen in again.

"Wang Daban, you escort my Luan and follow Lu Zhenfei and Jin Xuan to the south." Chongzhen said, "But after arriving in Yangzhou, don't enter Beijing first, don't enter Yangzhou City, just live in the canal wharf." ”

"The old slave commands." Wang Chengen didn't ask a word, and went out to make arrangements.

Seeing Wang Chengen's figure go out, Zhu Cihong was thoughtful, but Zhu Cijiong couldn't hold back.

Zhu Cijiong asked, "Father, don't we go south with Lu Zhenfei and Jin Xuan?" ”

"It's so boring to be with them." Chongzhen smiled and said, "Let's dress up with the three of our father and son, and then bring more than a hundred and so guards with Yi Ding Qiao makeup, as well as Yan Yingyuan and other scholars, to take a land route, one to observe the customs along the way, and the other to let you two see the people's sufferings and understand how the people live." ”

"That's a good idea." Zhu Cijiong was overjoyed and said, "This is the most interesting." ”

Zhu Cihong was a little worried, and frowned: "Father, will this be unsafe?" ”

"Hong'er, you're wrong." Chongzhen's eyes turned cold, and he said, "It's dangerous to follow Lu Zhenfei and Jin Xuan all the way, do you two believe that the boat that your father is riding will be scuttled?" ”

After a pause, Chongzhen said again: "Maybe you will be bombarded by the naval warship!" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Cihong and Zhu Cijiong changed their colors, "Father, do you mean Lu Zhenfei and Jin Xuan?" ”

"Hey, it's not what you two think." Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Lu Zhenfei is a loyal minister, not to mention Jin Xuan, the two of them will never be in the same league as those people in the Donglin Party." ”

Zhu Cijiong was puzzled and said, "Then father, why did you just say that your boat would be scuttled?" ”

"The reason is simple." Chongzhen said in a deep voice, "Lu Zhenfei, Jin Xuan, and Luan Jia, who followed them, are fake targets that I deliberately released to lure those people from the Donglin Party to do it. ”

Zhu Cihong said in horror: "What does my father mean that the Donglin Party will send someone to assassinate us on the way back to Beijing?" ”

Zhu Cijiong was furious: "Father, these thieves of the Donglin Party are too hateful, it is better to hand over the 1,000 scholars of Yan Yingyuan and Xu Yingwei to the sons, and the sons will take these 1,000 Qin Wang scholars back to Nanjing City, arrest Gao Hongtu, Jiang Yueguang and Xie Xuelong, and then behead them all." ”

Chongzhen frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Jiong'er, have you forgotten what your father told you?" ”

"What?" Zhu Cijiong asked with a blank face, "Father, which sentence are you referring to?" ”

Zhu Cihong said with a serious face: "My father once said that those who are in power must have a sense of awe and abide by the rules, and the greater the power in their hands, the more they must abide by the rules." ”

"The children can be taught." Chongzhen praised Zhu Cihong.

Then he turned his head and reprimanded Zhu Cijiong: "Learn from your eldest brother in the future." ”

"Oh." Zhu Cijiong nodded honestly, but when Chongzhen turned his head, he made a silent grimace, slightly.

Chongzhen continued: "Father can conclude that the Donglin Party raided the Internal Affairs Office and sent Ma Mingluo to prison in order to bury you, my father and son, and the thirty town border troops in Xuzhou City, so that your fifth brother can succeed to the throne, and the Donglin Party can monopolize power again." ”

Zhu Cihong nodded and said, "Father, the son believes in you." ”

Zhu Cijiong followed and said: "Father, the son also believes in you." ”

"It's just that you don't believe enough." Chongzhen waved his hand and said.

Zhu Cihong said: "The more than 6,000 Qinwang scholars in the Shizi camp, as well as Lu Zhenfei, Jin Xuan, and Du Yinxi, they will definitely believe in your judgment. ”

Zhu Cijiong said: "The border army of the thirty towns in Xuzhou and the 200,000 township warriors in Huai'an Mansion will also believe in you." ”

"It's not enough, it's not enough." Chongzhen said solemnly, "Although the emperor holds the supreme power in his hands and has the power to seize the power of life and death for his courtiers, it is precisely because of this that he needs to abide by the rules more, so if there is no convincing evidence of the crime, he must not convict a minister casually, and the cabinet auxiliary ministers need to be more cautious." ”

Speaking of this, Chongzhen couldn't help but slander the former host a few words.

Obviously, he wanted to negotiate peace, but he accidentally leaked the news but put the blame on the head of the military department Shangshu, and finally killed the military department Shangshu as a scapegoat.

This kind of practice simply does not talk about political rules at all.

So it's no wonder that in the end, those cabinet ministers and monks separated from him.

With such an unruly emperor who kills cabinet ministers like chickens, who dares to do things seriously? Maybe one day he will be dragged by the dog emperor to be a scapegoat.

It is also because of the history of the former host,

Therefore, Chongzhen needs to be extra cautious and more disciplined.

Otherwise, if he accidentally kills a person indiscriminately, it will be easy to evoke the unbearable memory of his past by the Manchu civil and military forces, and in this case, the court will fall into a situation of detachment from morality.

Zengguang Xianwen has clouds: the hearts of the people are united, and Mount Tai moves.

On the other hand, if the people are not aligned, nothing can be done.

That's why there is a saying that governing the country first governs the people, and it is the most difficult thing to win the hearts of the people.

"Father, my sons understand." Zhu Cihong suddenly realized, "That's why you took the Zhongzhi Jianba Lu Zhenfei as the secretary of the criminal department and joined the cabinet to pre-emptive the machine, and then used the Zhongzhi Jianba Jin Xuan as the governor of Yingtian and the commander of the military affairs of Caojiang, you did this to create a false impression that a big prison was going to rise in Nanjing, and then forced those people in the Donglin Party to take risks." ”

"Just now, Erchen was really worried that my father was going to raise a big prison in Nanjing, and he was going to persuade you to come."

After a pause, Zhu Cihong said again: "Once these people stretch out their black hands to their father Luan, they will be plotting against the great eucalyptus!" With the rebel eucalyptus as a starting point, Lu Zhenfei and Jin Xuan can really raise a big prison in Nanjing and investigate these people to the bottom, but as long as anyone is involved, don't want to run! ”

"Hong'er, you've really grown up." Chongzhen said happily.

"This is to tell them to beat theirs, and we will fight ours, and we must not be led by the nose by the opponent."

After a pause, Chongzhen said again: "As you said, if there is no enough earth-shattering evidence, it will definitely not be able to shake the towering tree of the Donglin Party, because the root system of this big tree in Jiangnan is too deep and wide, and its depth and breadth can only be described by one idiom, that is, the roots are intertwined!" ”

"Their influence has even penetrated into the peddlers' pawns."

"It's not easy for us to uproot such a towering tree."

"At least, it is not enough for the Metropolitan Procuratorate to raid the Internal Affairs Office and put Ma Mingluo in prison, because these two things are far from enough to turn public opinion in Shilin."

The biggest reliance of the Donglin Party is the Shilin public opinion in Jiangnan.

The Donglin Party can even make the famous prostitutes in Qinglou in Jiangnan breathe out with them, which is really powerful.

"Father, didn't you just say that the Metropolitan Procuratorate raided the Internal Affairs Office and imprisoned Ma Mingluo, which may lead to the defeat of the Battle of Xuzhou? And then caused our father and son to become prisoners of Jiannu? Zhu Cijiong was puzzled, "Isn't that enough?" Shilin doesn't even have the slightest discernment, right? ”

"The problem is that what you're talking about didn't happen, did it?"

Chongzhen said: "What hasn't happened yet, can't it be used as evidence? Because they can bite back and say that this is precisely to ensure the supply of food and salary on the front line in Xuzhou. ”

"Huh?" Zhu Cijiong was dumbfounded, "Isn't this reversing black and white?" ”

"It's sometimes hard to tell the difference between black and white." Chongzhen said, "Sometimes there is no black and white at all, and there is not even justice and evil, some are just a battle of ideas." ”

"Huh?" Zhu Cijiong scratched his head vigorously when he heard this.

These words are somewhat beyond the scope of his cognition.

After hearing these words, Zhu Cihong fell into deep thought.

……

Soon, five days passed.

Nanjing, cabinet duty.

"Pavilion Elder? Gao Ge Lao! ”

Zuo Guangxian rushed into Gao Hongtu's duty room with a panicked face, but because he was flustered and didn't care about his feet, he actually threw a dog on the threshold and ate, and screamed.

Gao Hongtu looked up and saw it, and his face immediately fell.

Putting the brush in his hand, Gao Hongtu reprimanded: "Say, you are also the imperial history of Zuo Yudu, and you are a four-grade court official, how can you still act so frizzy, what kind of system is it really become?" ”

"Elder Ge, have you heard?" Zuo Guangxian automatically ignored Gao Hongtu's reprimand, got up and said, "The Holy Lord Luanjia has left Xuzhou, and he will return to Nanjing within ten days." ”

"What's there to worry about?" Gao Hongtu said, "It is a great thing for the saint to return to the court. ”

Zuo Guangxian slandered, is it a good thing for the saint to return to the dynasty? It's like it's true, I almost believed it, Gao Ge Lao, are you really not afraid that what you do will be known by the saint? Not afraid of being razed?

It is not new for the Holy Lord to kill the cabinet ministers today.

Killing the ministers below Shangshu is even more like killing a little chicken.

However, of course, Zuo Guangxian did not dare to say this kind of thing openly.

Looking around at the left and right, Zuo Guangxian whispered: "Pavilion Elder, the lower officials heard that the Holy Lord has issued a decree to simply pull out Lu Zhenfei as the secretary of the Criminal Department, and merge him into the East Pavilion Pre-Aircraft Affairs, and also simply promote the military department of the military department to select the commander of Yingtian and the commander of the Caojiang Military Affairs, which is obviously aimed at the Metropolitan Procuratorate to raid the Internal Affairs Office. ”

After a pause, Zuo Guang first made a killing gesture, and then said: "Ge Lao, when Lu Zhenfei and Jin Xuan arrive in Nanjing, they will raise a big prison, and it will be too late, so it is better to strike first for the strong general Ma Mingluo......"
