Shen Shi (three o'clock in the afternoon), Deshengmen Street is still crowded, the city gate is surrounded by water, all are watching the lively people, but if they say what they are looking at the lively? The pro-guards who still returned triumphantly and the foot soldiers of the Beijing camp.

Ordinary people love to see this, and they are happy to do it.

In fact, the main force of soldiers and horses who can enter the city has already entered the city and returned to the camp, and a small number of slower feet have just been inked to the ground, as for Zhou Yuji and other soldiers and horses from other provinces, they are all camped on the bank of the Qinghe River ten miles away, and the main general is ordered to enter the city, and the military discipline is handed over to the jurisdiction of the palace battalion of Dongchang.

Can't enter the city, although there are regrets but helpless, the soldiers wandered around the camp to entertain themselves and be happy, but the news of the faster life soon came, the emperor allowed 3,000 soldiers to enter the city every day, but to abide by the law, if there is a disturbance of the people, the punishment will not be granted.

The military camp was boiling all of a sudden, as ordinary soldiers, the capital was a holy place for them, and they would die without regrets if they could enter the city for pilgrimage.

The majestic and sacred imperial city also has the Dashilar of the Flower Lake World, the endless lights, countless green mansions, theaters and casinos, and the young ladies in the gentle countryside who can't get enough of making people linger......

Each of them is a fatal attraction to ordinary soldiers.

Just like the common people of later generations who want to go to Tiananmen Square to have a look, they are in the same mood.

But they are foreign troops, and it is not rebellious to want to get close to the imperial capital for ten miles without a holy decree!

Who knows, the emperor is gracious!

Immediately the military camp exploded, and the soldiers shouted that they would immediately go to the capital to play together, but the holy decree also said that only 3,000 people were allowed every day, so when you were about to make a mess of porridge, the whips of the eunuchs and soldiers of the palace battalion fell on a few guys who took the lead in making trouble, and they strategically stabilized the situation: "If it is so noisy, I am afraid that the emperor will take back the holy decree, and no one wants to enter the city!" Fan Jiaqian angrily reprimanded, and the soldiers knew that the consequences were serious, so they honestly waited for the arrangement.

Emperor Chongzhen summoned a few people to ask about some military affairs in Qianqingmen, and talked about the war in the past few months, and praised a few people, and said that the pillars of the generals and the country, the praise and the cordiality of the attitude were unprecedented, and several people were flattered.

There is no official title, no knighthood, and no reward, just a common talk of the monarch and ministers, but this is enough to make a few people grateful to Dade, because the more so it is, the more the emperor's grace is magnificent, and the king of a country has all the opportunities if he is not favored and has spare time to chat with you.

Several people got into the carriage out of Dong'an Gate and were about to return to Dongchang Yamen, when they suddenly heard a call behind them, and a eunuch hurriedly ran over, holding a knife in his arms: "The emperor rewarded Wu guards."

Wu Zhong was overjoyed, took the thanks, got into the car and played carefully.

Huang Degong was very envious: "The four of us are rewarded to you alone, the emperor is eccentric."

With a click, Wu Zhong drew his knife, and the cold light flashed, and everyone sighed for the knife.

"Red Ying" Wu Zhong blurted out, he is a great master of playing with knives, the world's famous knife, he can be called famous by him, and how can it be broken copper and iron from the palace.

Zhou Yuji also sighed: "When it is estimated that the military parade is about merit, the minimum level of Commander Wu is also a thousand-household rank, and if you don't know it, you can still get a general."

Although Wu Zhong listened to the errand under the command of Dongchang, but in fact he had no position and no title in the official records, this is mainly because of the particularity of the four battalions of Dongchang, although Emperor Chongzhen approved the four battalions to be subordinate to Dongchang, but he has not yet sealed the military rank, so the head of the four battalions is only called by the commander, this title is derived from the Song Dynasty, and the Later Qing Dynasty is also an official title, but at the moment the title of the commander is only the leader of a battalion, although outsiders know that the rank of the commander of the four battalions is not less than a thousand households, just for the sake of making a book.

Wu Zhong grinned: "Then ask General Zhou to say auspiciously, it is already contentment to get a thousand households, far from being compared with a few adults, General Li's promotion to the third level is ironclad, General Zhou and General Huang are even more limitless, and the small ones are congratulations to the three adults first."

Li Yan and the three of them laughed: "This matter has to be decided by the emperor in the end, what good things are we thinking about here."

When the four of them returned to the Dongchang Yamen, they attracted the envy of everyone again, and they even surrounded Wu Zhong to listen to him appreciate the famous red tasseled knife.

At this time, Chang Yu was still asleep.

Wenyuan Pavilion, the atmosphere is slightly solemn, Li Yuzhi's words when he brushed his sleeves and left, let the listener ask himself, who is loyal, who is traitor, who is doing things, and who is messing around.

The same hall is a minister, how can there be loyalty and treachery, it is really internal fighting and internal friction.

"The emperor has arrived," the eunuch outside the door shouted, and the ministers hurriedly put down their hands and got up to greet them.

"Your face is not very good, but you are still angry" Emperor Chongzhen put down the teacup and swept around, chuckling.

"The old minister doesn't dare" Li Banghua arched his hand and said: "The original intention of the emperor to establish the cabinet was to let us share the worries of the emperor, but the emperor has been acting bent on his own way recently, making us like a ...... decoration" The words showed dissatisfaction.

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and smiled slightly: "Those are not important, you just need to remember the sentence: "worry about the emperor"! ”

Li Banghua was stunned and sighed slightly: "The old minister must bow down and die!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied: "There are many people in the court, and it is inconvenient for me to say some things clearly and clearly, and you are the same, so I came to have a good chat with you, and if you have any dissatisfaction, you can just say it."

"Your Majesty, the old minister wants to ......" Wu Fu was stopped by Emperor Chongzhen as soon as he opened his mouth: "Just talk about things, don't impeach, let alone impeach Chang Yu, I put my words here today, Chang Yu is now the Dinghai Divine Needle of the Ming Dynasty, I need him to calm the war in the four seas, if he moves, who will guard the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for me, do you?" ”

One word shocked the audience, it is absolutely impossible for Emperor Chongzhen to say this in front of hundreds of officials in the court, but he can say it bluntly in front of the ministers, and now he has revealed his heart, I need him now, no one wants to touch him, at least not now!

"Minister, it's not about people, it's not about impeaching Chang Yu" Wu Xuan's words made Emperor Chongzhen a little surprised, and nodded: "Say."

"The emperor's twenty-six personal guards are used to guard the imperial city to protect the Son of Heaven, but Chang Yu left him at the border, which is against the ancestral system and suspicious!" Wu Xuan was talking about Chang Yu's 5,000 personal guards left behind in Gubeikou.

Emperor Chongzhen chuckled when he heard this: "It is not a precedent for the pro-guard army to go out of Beijing to fight, in previous years, Zhou Yuji and Huang Degong also led the Teng Ji Four Guards to suppress the thief soldiers, saying coldly, don't always talk about the ancestral system, the rules formulated by the ancestors may not be appropriate, don't be too silent to the old rules."

"In extraordinary times, it is understandable that the pro-guard army will go out to fight in Beijing when the national crisis is at the head of the national crisis, and the military affairs are urgent, but after the war, it is too incomprehensible to have to be transferred back, but it is left at the border."

"You will understand soon" Emperor Chongzhen took a sip of the teacup: "In the future, whether it is the Beijing camp or the pro-guard army, they will take turns to go out of Beijing to fight on the border."

The ministers were stunned: "Your Majesty, the military defense of the capital is very important, and there must be no mistakes!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen sneered: "If the knife is not sharpened for a long time, it will become broken copper and iron, and you can still count on defending the capital?" If the border passes are lost one after another, how many days can the city defense of the capital be defended? Don't you really know the truth of which is more important? ”

The emperor has changed, the emperor has really changed, Li Banghua and others have to face this reality, this once submissive emperor, his means are getting harder and harder, and his heart is getting harder and harder.

Now that the emperor has changed, whether the courtiers who are assisting Huang should also change slightly, several ministers are pondering, either leaving the stall or obeying the order.

Stalls? If it was put aside a few months ago, to be honest, few people were willing to move up, the first assistant and the military department were still in the book, and they were changed in three days, looking at the promotion, but in fact, they were all used to top the thunder, and a few of them were good results, but now it is different, the biggest thunder at the moment is the little eunuch is carrying, and the war outside has been won one after another, and the court is stable.

"I still have one more thing to discuss with Zhuqing" Chongzhen took a sip of tea and told the story.
