Chapter 359: Supreme Glory
It can be seen that Chongzhen's mind at this time has long been unable to be measured by common sense, not only suspicious and a little hysterical, or extremely extreme, but think about it, anyone who is under mental pressure can't remain rational when he reaches this point.
"Your Majesty, at this very time, there are some things that cannot be done, and you can't do it!" Chang Yu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.
This kid is so clever, he just accidentally showed a little killing intent, he knew his heart, Chongzhen was stunned in his heart, but he pretended to be stupid: "What is an extraordinary time?" ”
"The world is in chaos, people's hearts are panicking, if there is nothing to do, wouldn't it be chaotic and chaotic" Chang Yu's words have been said very directly, now internal and external troubles, the court officials are watching, the nobles are eating and waiting for death, and the vassal king is also watching a good show, everyone is watching how you Zhu Youzhen survived this threshold, but if you have no reason to destroy the vassal king, it is not equivalent to declaring war, those who have long been unable to look down on you, the vassal kings will immediately rebel, this is not uncommon in the Ming Dynasty.
"Hmph, I don't know what to say, I don't know what you're talking nonsense!" Chongzhen snorted coldly, Chang Yu's heart trembled, Nima, the companion is like a tiger, not only to figure out the emperor's heart at any time and know its meaning, but also to show that it is random speculation, too offensive, the words can't be said too clearly and too full, forever half bright and half dark, too Nima is tired!
I am so tired face to face in front of me, but I want to think about how muddy the water is in the court, and I have to work hard, how can I be so happy to go into battle to kill the enemy!
"The little one is abrupt, offending the emperor, the crime deserves death!" Chang Yu hurriedly said.
Chongzhen was silent, got up and paced back and forth in the hall for a long time, looked at Chang Yu and said: "King Shen's family took refuge in the Jin Palace, has the palace of Lu'an Mansion been plundered by thieves?" ”。
"It should be, but when King Shen avoided leaving, most of the property in the house had already been brought to him" Chang Yu said in his heart, and it was not for this reason that he turned around eight times.
Sure enough, Chongzhen's face was overjoyed when he heard this: "Fortunately, if you fall into the hands of thieves, won't you become an enemy!" ”
"Your Majesty, King Shen felt the emperor's grace during his lifetime, and saw that Taiyuan was short of salary, so he donated a sum of silver," Chang Yu said.
"Oh, King Shen has a heart, and he is anxious, I don't know how much he donated?"
"Five hundred thousand! However, most of them are jewelry, not cash silver, and their subordinates have been brought to the capital to prepare for cash, at this time they should be in the imperial horse prison, and ask the emperor to send someone to count! ”
The smile on Chongzhen's face was even stronger: "You do things, I am the most assured, who else needs to be sent to count, there are many rich gentry in the capital, but you can discount a good price, and I will leave it to you at this time."
"Little obedience!" Chang Yu kowtowed.
"Get up and talk" Chongzhen was in a good mood when he learned that he had gotten 500,000 taels of silver from King Shen, and his heart to destroy King Shen also disappeared: "Is there anything else you want to tell me on the way?" ”
Chang Yu got up and sat down: "Your Majesty, there is!" ”
"Oh, heavy or?" Chongzhen came to be interested.
"It's about the country" Chang Yu's tone was affirmative, and Chongzhen's interest was even stronger.
"Say ......"
The candle flame was swaying, and in the Qianqing Palace, which was as warm as spring, Chang Yu hung his head and talked eloquently, Zhu Youzhen and his son listened attentively, sometimes frowning, sometimes showing their faces, only Wang Chengen's expression next to him was consistent, silently serving tea and pouring water.
The wind outside the hall is high and the moon is dark, the Forbidden City is like a huge monster dormant in the dark night, the whole palace is quiet, the liveliness of the grass fence has dissipated, a few people are happy and a few people are sad, the guards of the imperial city are still patrolling in an orderly manner, the person on the moat bridge outside the Donghua Gate is still snot and tears, whether to summon me tonight or not, or that the emperor has forgotten about my stubble.
Not to mention, Chongzhen didn't have Wu Mengming in his eyes at all at this time, only glittering silver, and at this time, his whole person exuded an indescribable excitement, so that his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but get up and walk in front of Chang Yu, "You mean, you took a few Jin merchants for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country?" ”
"At least eight big heads" Chang Yu stretched out his finger and gestured!
"Everybody's a rich party?" Chongzhen licked his lips.
"In this case, each one is rich!" Chang Yu nodded slightly.
Chongzhen exhaled a long breath, clenched his fists hard, waved it in the air, and let out a low hey, he could not describe what kind of emotions he was in his heart at this time, shock, excitement, anger, surprise and so on.
Chang Yu was arresting a group of wealthy businessmen in Zhangjiakou and Shanxi Province on the grounds that he was smuggling contraband to the Qing people and collaborating with the enemy to betray the country and be willing to be spies.
These wealthy businessmen are all wealthy, and it is said that there are tens of millions, but even if each of them has two or three million, seven or eight tens of millions into the treasury, they can solve the worries of the deficit of the treasury and the shortage of military salaries in the blink of an eye, so as not to pull their faces everywhere and beg for help, and even do not hesitate to secretly engage in casinos to set up such a thing as a trap for the nobles.
However, what made him extremely angry was that the merchants in the border towns were so blatantly smuggling and collaborating with the enemy, but he had never heard of it, and no one played this matter, which shows that the foundation is rotten to the bottom, and the collusion between officials, businessmen and the army is terrifying.
If it is allowed to go on like this, the nine-sided town, the copper wall of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that it will be destroyed in one fell swoop!
Chongzhen was very sad, but now he was a little lucky, glad that he was discovered in time, and he was glad that he could enrich the treasury and solve the most urgent needs in front of him.
But, he wants evidence!
If there is no evidence, the merchants all over the world are panicked, thinking that the emperor is poor and crazy, and he actually found the home of the rich merchant to replenish the treasury, which is no different from a thief!
"Chang Yu, if you don't have real evidence, you must not act recklessly, even the prince can figure out the stakes," he couldn't help but remind.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, if the little one has no solid evidence, he will naturally not do it, and the little one was shocked when he learned about it by chance, so he sent someone to investigate, and really found a lot of clues, and there was no physical witness evidence for the time being, but the smuggling of contraband, go to those merchants' warehouses to check one accurate!"
Chang Yu looked solemn: "The small one also knows that this matter is not small, and it is even widely implicated, if there is no evidence, it is difficult to block the mouth of Youyou, but there is no intention of framing him, otherwise there are so many rich businessmen and gentry in the capital, why should the small one be willing to seek the near and far!" ”
Yes, Chongzhen nodded vigorously: "According to what you said, those hateful profiteers have been operating in the border town for several years, and no one has reported it, so it can be seen that it is not one or two people involved, and if you are not careful, you are afraid that the border town will be in a big mess, and you should deal with this matter carefully."
"This matter is supervised by the East Factory, the small one has been instructed, to take the evidence, if no one set up an obstacle will not be deliberately implicated, only take the enemy businessmen, so as not to cause panic, but all the people involved, the small one does not intend to let go, first remember in the book, after the rumors, slowly give them a calculation, now with a small view, copying silver is the urgent need!" There was a sneer at the corner of Chang Yu's mouth.
That's right, silver is what is needed, Chongzhen's face flashed with self-deprecation, and then stared at Chang Yu, his face gradually warmed up: "I am so fortunate that at this juncture, I have to meet such a good talent as you!" ”
"The emperor praised it falsely" Chang Yu bowed, and Zhu Cihong next to him also showed a smile on his face, extremely happy.
"You personally supervise this matter, as long as there is solid evidence, no matter how much saliva the government and the opposition have, they are not afraid" Chongzhen's eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth smiled: "After copying these homes that kill a thousand knives, the treasury is full, I will have silver to transfer troops, and see how long the thieves and those Tartars can still be majestic......
As soon as Chang Yu heard the truth, he couldn't help but oops, oh my mother, don't brag, you just took over, there will be money, food, soldiers and generals, and you don't have to drop people, and the more you suppress it, the bigger and bigger, now it's all mixed up like this, what do you want, you don't have a meal, you just get some silver and start floating......
"The thief fled, can you know where to go at this time?" Chongzhen himself yy for a while, and then asked about business.
"The little one received the latest information, and the thieves went east, they should be going to meet with the thief leader Liu Fangliang, but I am afraid that the war in the Central Plains will be even worse......"
Went east? Chongzhen squinted: "He didn't go back to Xi'an!" A sneer at the corner of his mouth said: "It seems that he is very dissatisfied with you!" ”
Chang Yu also smiled: "The thief is beaten by the five elements, and if you beat it a few more times, you will know that you are afraid, and I implore the emperor to decree that the little one is willing to fight with him again!" ”
To Chang Yu's surprise, Chongzhen didn't nod immediately, but looked at the top of the hall by himself, and it took a long time before he sighed: "Tell me about the Taiyuan war."
Chang Yu was a little suspicious, but he still told the story, how to spy on the enemy camp to assassinate Li Laiheng, how to trap Chen Shangzhi in front of the battle, how to pretend to surrender and delay time to build Taiyuan fortifications and several attacks by the thief army to besiege the city later, during which he did not forget to show merit for his soldiers.
Chongzhen, the prince and Wang Chengen listened to the enthusiasm boiling, and applauded from time to time, and then praised Chang Yu again.
After a while, the night was even worse, but Chongzhen's father and son were not tired at all, and they felt that they had the posture of chatting all night, but Chang Yu was anxious, all the way, almost enough, let me go back to sleep first.
"Chang Yu, what you said this time, is everything true?" Chang Yu's mouth was dry, and Chongzhen listened to it with great interest, but with his naturally suspicious character, he naturally thought that Chang Yu had added oil and vinegar to it, and even those things that were not seen in light were concealed.
"The little one doesn't dare to deceive the emperor, the emperor can be investigated, if there is deception, the little one is willing to suffer the crime of deceiving the king!" Chang Yu bowed.
Chongzhen snorted and nodded slightly: "Wu Mengming is still in the palace?" ”
"When the little one came, he was outside the Donghua Gate, and he didn't know ...... at this time," Chang Yu said.
"Summoning Wu Mengming over," Chongzhen said to Wang Chenen.
Wang Chenen walked quickly towards the outside of the hall.
Chongzhen's gaze fell on Chang Yu's shoulder.
Chang Yu comprehended, stretched out his hand to untie his clothes, Chongzhen and Zhu Cihong couldn't help but get up and approach him.
Yes! The father and son couldn't help but exclaim, Chang Yu's shoulder was stabbed so deep before, it was what they saw with their own eyes, but in front of Chang Yu's shoulder, the blood color had disappeared, and most of the wound had healed, only a shallow pit the size of a fingernail!
This is the case for only one hour...... Chongzhen's mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Chang Yu with a look of surprise: "There is such a thing!" Wonderful, wonderful"
And Zhu Cihong was terrified in his heart at this time, and his whole body couldn't help trembling, he, what kind of immortal should he be......
"Chang Yu, I allow you to walk in front of the emperor, and the four gates of the Nine Emperor Cities outside the capital have no restrictions on you, and you can claim to be subordinate in front of me in the future!" Chongzhen exhaled a long breath, and then said these words, which immediately made Chang Yu feel that the hard work of many days was worth it.
It is a great honor to walk in the Qing Dynasty in front of the imperial court, the Ming Dynasty is very different from the Qing Dynasty, but it is also a very long-faced thing, and the general courtiers do not have this treatment.
The gates of the capital and even the palace do not defend him and let him enter and exit at any time, one is to be very favored by him, and the other is to facilitate his actions, as for the self-esteem of the minister, it is equivalent to saying that Chang Yu is not regarded as a slave, Chang Yu will not need to be a small in front of him in the future, the humble title of a small slave, you can directly call the minister, and it is a change of identity in public and private!
I'm afraid that this kind of treatment is not as good as Wei Zhongxian, who was in full swing back then, but Chang Yu also knew in his heart that the reason why Chongzhen did this was that he found that he was a usable person, and he would try his best to win him over and show his favor if he had the value of use!
"Minister, thank you, Lord Longen!" Chang Yu bowed, Chongzhen stretched out his hand to help him up, with a solemn expression: "I hope that you will serve Daming wholeheartedly in the future, and I will not have my high hopes for you in vain."
"The minister must go to the soup for the Ming Dynasty, and he will never give up!" Chang Yu wanted to worship again, but was held by Chongzhen, and nodded vigorously: "You have been in the dust all the way, rest early, and come to see me tomorrow."
"The minister retires, the emperor is Sheng'an" Chang Yu exhaled secretly, slowly withdrew from the Qianqing Palace, and when he arrived at the door, he said to Wang Chenen, "Little retirement, good night to the prince."
Wang Chenen hurriedly returned the salute: "Don't dare to be, good night to Father-in-law Chang!" The old slave sent to Chang Gongpa"
"I'm tired"
