Seeing is believing, hearing is false.

In Chongzhen's opinion, this sentence is correct.

The first time I saw Yang Chengying, the impression was very different from what I saw through the words on the fold.

Chongzhen's spirit perked up, and the sleepiness just now was gone.

He took a cup of hot tea from the palace maid's hand, took a sip, and said in a solemn tone:

"Now the peace in the north of the Ming Dynasty is all due to the defense of the Qing Dynasty."

Yang Chengying bowed down and said, "This is to trust the emperor to Longwei, and rely on the soldiers to use their lives. Weichen is a blunt material, and it took more than ten years to do so. Neither was he able to mobilize troops to enter the customs to exterminate the peasant army, nor did he have extra money and food to support the imperial court, so that His Majesty had a sleepless night's sleep and restless sleep, and the ministers really deserved long live the crime."

After speaking, Yang Chengying got up and knelt in front of Chongzhen again.

Chongzhen's face became a little ugly.

Originally, I wanted to talk about money, food and troop transfer along this topic, but I didn't expect to be taken by Yang Chengying and gagged.

Chongzhen raised his hand, "Qing's difficulty, I understand it very well, get up and speak."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness of sins."

Yang Chengying got up and returned to his seat and sat down.

Chongzhen looked at him from afar, and waited for him to sit down before he said, "*** has been destroyed, and Qing personally inspected the entire northeast, what are the external troubles?"

"Back to Your Majesty, there are Rakshasas in the north who are attacking the border from time to time, and the minister has sent Cao Bianjiao and Wang Fuchen to lead the troops from Heilongjiang City, patrol along the Heilongjiang River, repel the Rakshasa soldiers, and appease the Sauron Other."

Yang Cheng replied: "Second, the three major tribes of Transkhalkha have occasionally plundered our Mongolian tribes under the instigation of the Rakshasa State, and the minister has sent envoys to reprimand them.

Third, the Jurchen Ministries in the Northeast are newly established, and it will take time to further educate them. In addition......"

"These are all diseases of scabies, and I can't help but take them too seriously."

Chongzhen was a little unhappy.

He found that Yang Chengying couldn't observe words and feelings, and he was already angry just now, but he still talked endlessly.

This is not comparable to that of the ministers of the DPRK and China.

If Yang Chengying is pretending to be stupid, he is really ill-intentioned.

"Your Majesty has seen the extreme. However, since the minister has sent people to deal with these matters, it is natural that he has done everything perfectly and lived up to His Majesty's expectations."

Yang Chengying continued to play stupid.

In fact, it is not surprising that Chongzhen has similar thoughts, the ancient East is borderless.

The state in the modern sense originated from the Westphalian system, and nationalism only existed during the French Revolution.

As a traverser, Yang Chengying's country and home in his heart are completely different from the country and home in Chongzhen's heart.

Chongzhen saw that Yang Cheng should talk about him left and right, so he had to pierce this layer of window paper:

"I'm in the Northeast, I'm afraid I don't know some things yet. The thief Li Zi became the old department of the dead thief Gao Yingxiang, the strongest among the thieves, and had stolen Luoyang.

The thief was cunning and greedy, and he took advantage of the void to steal Xiangyang. The rest of the thieves are wandering in the north of the Yangtze River, causing the community to be restless, the world to be in turmoil, and the people to make a living."

Yang Chengying had already expected that the emperor would apportion him sooner or later, and he was already prepared in his heart.

He grasped a principle - if he didn't ask for money, he would not give his life, and he would never provide any help other than words.

"It's not the minister's intention to shirk." He replied, "The soldiers of the Liaodong Army are all outside the pass, and it is too far from Luoyang or Xiangyang, and the food and grass when marching along the way is a big problem. The ministers transferred many troops, and the grain and grass were unsustainable; If you don't have a lot of troops, it's in vain."

"It's true."

Chongzhen also had to admit that Yang Chengying's words made sense.

The nearest Liaoxi is also more than 2,000 miles away from Luoyang, not to mention other regions.

Moreover, Chongzhen had heard that the soldiers under Yang Chengying were extremely arrogant, and they would not give all the grain, grass and silver, so they would take the opportunity to make trouble.

Chongzhen retired in the early years, or pacified the Dengzhou Rebellion, or followed Yang Sichang into Shaanxi, and the local gentry were tossed and bitter along the way.

Food, clothing, shelter and transportation must be properly prepared for them. Slightly unsatisfactory, the big blade waits.

But Chongzhen doesn't know, such as

Guo Yang Cheng should not do this, the soldiers will become called Huazi, food and clothing will be a problem, and what to fight.

If you can't borrow troops, you only have to ask for money.

Chongzhen is not easy to open this mouth, after all, he is the emperor, how can he ask his subordinates for money in person.

But seeing that Yang Chengying is not a fine person, if he doesn't speak, he will never speak.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen began to regret that he didn't find a smart minister to accompany him.

"Qing ...... Let's go back and stay in Wanfu for a few days...... I will wait for me to deal with the urgent business in my hands and then summon the secretary to the palace."

The eunuchs were all taken aback, and secretly glanced at the emperor's face.

They saw that the emperor's face was red, all the way to the root of his ears.

It's not about getting angry, it's about lying for the first time, and I'm not used to it.

Fortunately, Yang Chengying did not embarrass him, knelt down and kowtowed, "The minister retires."

Yang Chengying got up and bowed down.

Seeing Yang Chengying walk away, Chongzhen Fang got up, only to find that his back was sweating.

He had to go back to the dormitory and change his clothes.

When Empress Zhou heard about it, she came to greet her.

When she saw the emperor changing his clothes, she didn't dare to ask why she had to change her clothes, but asked, "Your Majesty saw Yang Chengying with your own eyes today, I don't know what your impression is?"

Chongzhen sat down at the table, tapped his fist on the table, and commented, "This person is calm and brave, with a majesty that is different from ordinary people, and he is not a brave and loyal minister."

"That's right." Empress Zhou was puzzled, "In that case, why didn't Your Majesty capture it on the spot, so that it could not return to Liaodong."

"I don't want to, I really can't."

Chongzhen said: "He has brought more than 10,000 troops here, and there are armies in the north, northeast, and southeast that are ready to attack at any time, and there must be his people in the Jingshi, so it is not easy to take him."

"Oh?" Empress Zhou didn't believe it.

"Don't look at the general soldiers of each town have written a report that it is peaceful. It just shows that there is already a rumor in various places."

Chongzhen smiled bitterly and said, "I've been dealing with these people for more than ten years, and I can still see it."

"Since you can't restrain this person, it's better to win it over."

Empress Zhou suggested: "I heard that Yang Chengying's name of entering Beijing is Guining, and ordinary people think that Guining is going to Wanfu, after all, the princess is from Wanfu.

But the princess's real maiden family is the royal family, so you can ask the royal sister-in-law to come forward, invite the princess into the palace, reward the treasures and land, and lobby to win over Yang Chengying."

"It makes sense, I will go to Cao Huachun as soon as possible, and ask the princess to enter the palace tomorrow."

Chongzhen thought it was a good idea and immediately agreed.

Cao Huachun received the will, and then took a few eunuchs out of the palace and went straight to Wanfu.

Because Yang Chengying stayed in Wanfu at this time.

"Chen Wanwei, bring the people of the Fuzhong family, slaves, etc., to meet Princess Yan'en."

Wan Wei, whose hair was white, bowed to Zhu Huixian, who was sitting on the main seat.

Yang Chengying stood on the side of the princess and received the salute together.

Wan Wei saluted and stood on the east side of the hall.

Yang Chengying and Zhu Huixian came to him.

Zhu Huixian stood, and Yang Chengying knelt on the futon, saluting Wan Wei and Wan Changzuo.

Ancient rules, country before home.

Although Zhu Huixian came out of Wanfu, she has entered the royal family tree and is already a member of the royal family.

Wan Wei is her grandfather, and Wan Changzuo is her father, so they have to pay her a national salute first.

When it comes to her and Yang Chengying's family ceremony, she only needs to stand and kneel.

As for Wan Wei's wife, the eldest princess Ryan died a few years ago.

After the two sides saluted, they took their seats.
