Just the order of the audience, Zhou Shixian and Emperor Chongzhen intensified the contradiction between the Xungui group and the civil official group, and when the two groups of people met in the Huai'an City Mansion, more than a dozen people from the Xungui group who had just retired were arrogant, looking like they had already outperformed the civil officials who had just come in, and some even boasted loudly:

"Now that the country is in danger, the Holy Lord attaches so much importance to our martial artists, after going back this time, we must reorganize the Beijing camp and not let the Holy Lord down. In the future, the north will return to the rivers and mountains, and we will all be first-class heroes. In these days, knives, guns and clubs are much more useful than pens. ”

When the other nobles heard this, they also laughed out loud, and they responded one after another, so angry that several civil officials turned pale.

The second group of ministers who met were divided into two groups according to the difference between the six departments and the department, led by Shi Kefa, the secretary of the military department, Li Banghua, the imperial history, and Ni Yuanlu, the official secretary of the household department, who had been standing outside for a long time, and they could not get the audience of Emperor Chongzhen until Wang Chengen announced the decree.

These cumbersome rituals and procedures were also an important factor in enhancing the authority of Emperor Chongzhen, and the so-called authority, hierarchy and mystery came from that.

Many of Nanjing's ministers are old acquaintances of Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu, and it is naturally the most suitable for them to coordinate.

It's just that in such a situation, it is inevitably a little embarrassing for people to see each other.

According to the order of Emperor Chongzhen, Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu announced to these civil officials the conspiracy of Lu Jiude, Ma Huabao, Wang Hui and others, as well as the results of the disposal.

Everyone naturally knew that these two ministers who were driving thousands of miles would inevitably soar into the sky with Chongzhen regaining control of the Dragon Court, and they originally wanted to stammer, but at this time, after hearing the news of such a thunderbolt on a sunny day, these officials were stunned.

In particular, the officials of the Sixth Department of Nanjing, the Ming Dynasty also suppressed the military with literature, and many of them were in charge of military affairs, or were concerned about the army's finances in hand, and they were inextricably linked with the localities.

And these officials of the six ministries guessed well, after those officials heard about this incident, their reaction was different from theirs, and they are not directly responsible for such a thing, but who should be impeached and which one is not pleasing to the water is worth considering.

It can only be said that whether it is in history or today, the officials of the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty are constantly fighting and fighting, constantly consuming their own strength.

However, for these elves, some people have long thought of the Fu King behind Lu Jiude.

But if this is the case, the matter will be greatly implicated, and I am afraid that a bloody storm is indispensable. Especially when everyone thought that Chongzhen was in trouble, there were still many people in the court who wanted to support King Fu.

Without waiting for these people to think about it, Wang Chengen had already come out of it and delivered the decree: "Holy Decree, the officials of the six ministries will meet you!"

When the officials of the six departments heard this, they all quickly stood up straight, and hurriedly tidied up their clothes before rushing out.

At the door of the palace hall, they saw the quasi-concubine Ma Ye standing beside Emperor Chongzhen.

It was the first time for these officials in Nanjing to see this young and handsome colt, and they couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The horse obviously looks so young, but he has done what no one in the world can do, a team of only a few hundred people, trekking through mountains and rivers for more than 2,000 miles, not only is there no less, but thousands more, it is simply amazing.

Not to mention anything else, it was the calmness that Zhou Shixian showed when he stood there now, which made them admire.

As these officials entered the lobby, Wang Chengen also shouted: "The officials of the six departments are ordered to meet you!" ”

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen officials led by Shi Kefa knelt down together in order of arrangement, and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Like those nobles just now, the voices of these civil officials shouting from the mountains and the sea were mixed with very obvious whimpering.

Although, just a few days ago, they were still discussing the matter of supporting King Lu.

"Let's get flat!"

Although Chongzhen was also full of emotion in his heart, in front of these courtiers, he forcibly showed an indifferent look.

After all, unlike those nobles who grew up in Nanjing, these civil officials basically failed in the political/political struggle in the capital, or violated some taboos and were demoted to Nanjing, Chongzhen and them are old acquaintances.

"The country is so difficult, it is really rare that we can still see each other between our monarchs and ministers!"

Chongzhen said with a wry smile, he originally wanted to show his majesty, but the hardships and hardships along the way, now that he has seen these familiar courtiers, it is Chongzhen's more than ten years of emperor's qi cultivation kung fu, which is inevitably broken.

Seeing this, Lu Daqi hurriedly seized the opportunity, and knelt back again.

As the squire of Nanjing's military department, his power is second only to Shi Kefa, and his responsibility is the same, so when Shi Kefa led his troops north to King Qin, Lu Jiude and Ma Huabao mobilized private troops, if they were investigated, then he would definitely not be able to escape.

"Your Majesty, the minister deserves to die."

Lu Daqi even said with a crying voice: "It was the minister's negligence that gave Lu Ma the opportunity to take advantage of the two traitors, so that the royal driver was frightened, and the minister's crime is unforgivable, please punish Your Majesty." No matter what kind of punishment, the minister is willing. ”

Lu Daqi is still sensible, at least he has the right attitude, he will accept the responsibility first, show an attitude of admitting his mistakes, and then it will be up to Emperor Chongzhen to see how he falls.

Zhou Shixian looked at the ministers in front of him trembling and sweating, and smiled proudly in his heart, which shows that he and Chongzhen have made the right choice, these so-called ministers have lost their minds, and they dare not do it now, and they will not dare to be presumptuous in the future.

As long as you are obedient and obedient, and the state apparatus can run smoothly, then there will be another opportunity.

Moreover, these guys, whether they were originally blessed or supported, have made a lot of remarks that they can be beheaded in private, and even in the open.

In other words, if Chongzhen wants to rectify them and pursue these big or small things, they will all have to admit it.

It must be known that some things, especially big or small things, if they are really investigated, they are jack scales, and they can't hold up.

After all, although this Emperor Chongzhen can't govern the country, he is famous for killing his own people, as long as you make mistakes, he can kill you.

In the past seventeen years, Chongzhen has killed seven military ministers and twelve governors in the capital.

Now that he has arrived in Nanjing, it is difficult to say how many people will die.

However, after going through so many things, all the way south, more than 2,000 miles, nearly a month away, Chongzhen, who has been in the Forbidden City for more than ten years, seems to have changed a lot after seeing the real world.

Moreover, in the current situation, even if Emperor Chongzhen wanted to stabilize the situation and people's hearts, he no longer had any reason to dwell on the "Luma hijacking", and he immediately reassured:

"Shi Kefa and Lu Zhenfei are already investigating this matter, it is these two chaotic ministers and thieves who are mad and have nothing to do with others, you don't have to blame yourself. However, it is also necessary to arouse vigilance and strengthen vigilance so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past, and such a thing will never be allowed to happen again. ”

"Your Majesty's will!"

Lu Daqi immediately bowed, and the others on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, if the saint does not pursue it, then this matter can be regarded as a turning page.

However, this also made these originally frightened ministers curious.

After all, Chongzhen in the past was not such a benevolent person, and it can even be said that he was mean, and he was also the kind of erratic - he trusted some people and forgave them repeatedly, but for some people, he was extremely bitter.

And all of them know in their hearts that if this case is vigorously investigated, I am afraid that everyone will eventually be in danger, and even paralyze the entire Nanjing court because of the inextricable relationship between the officials, then the problem will be big.

"Okay, don't discuss this matter anymore, the current situation is the time for our monarchs and ministers to work together, don't be disturbed by a few chaotic ministers and thieves."

Chongzhen smiled slightly, but he looked extremely majestic, and then said graciously: "From now on, all ministries, courts, prefectures and temples in Nanjing must take action. Specific personnel adjustments will be drawn up in a few days. ”

"Your Majesty, thank you for your holy grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

More than a dozen ministers knelt on the ground in unison, kowtowing on one side and thanking each other, and their hearts were ecstatic, they had finally become serious officials of the Sixth Ministry.

For all the officials in Nanjing, this is a great grace.

Chongzhen has been the emperor for so many years, and the means of combining grace and power have long been perfected, and this one after the other, whether to pursue or not to investigate, to reward and punish, are all handled just right, and these officials have also been governed obediently.

Moreover, the personnel adjustment, which will be drawn up later, will carry too much weight.

They can naturally imagine Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu, and how the others will adjust, I'm afraid it depends on today's performance.

As soon as he thought of this, the flattery of these dozen officials became even more obvious, and they all felt full of energy in their hearts to fight for their future.

The future has not been decided, who can enter the cabinet, and it is still uncertain!
