Chapter 995: The Prince's Friend
Please enter the text.
The monarch and the ministers whispered for a long time, and when Tianjinzi Changyu saw that Emperor Chongzhen was getting more and more tired, he was about to retreat and suddenly thought of something, so he said; "The emperor, Li Yan, Zhou Yuji, and Huang Degong are expected to arrive in the capital before dawn."
Emperor Chongzhen snorted: "I know, let him camp outside the city for the parade, I should personally confer the title to boost the army's heart."
"Your Majesty, the ministers have something to ask for, and when they arrive in Beijing, they can enter the city at their own convenience!" Chang Yu hurriedly said.
Emperor Chongzhen frowned: "Foreign troops are not allowed to enter the city, and generals are not allowed to enter the city at will without being called, this is a common practice and an ancestral system, I am afraid that the cabinet will also impose protests......"
"Your Majesty, if they don't fight bloody battles outside, whether Beijing City can be settled or say, those courtiers don't know where to wag their tails and beg for mercy, and what qualifications they are qualified to talk about" Chang Yu's words are actually disrespectful, even Emperor Chongzhen, who is very favored by him, feels harsh when he hears it, but Chang Yu still continued: "Your Majesty, now is the time to win the hearts of the army, and you can't chill the hearts of the soldiers anymore, whether the courtiers are important or the soldiers are important, you don't have the bottom in your heart, When the enemy army invades, it is the soldiers who fight bloodily to protect the country for you, not those ministers who talk about the army on the paper of the court every day! ”
Chongzhen was silent, he knew that Chang Yu was attentive, and now there were many warlords in the Ming Dynasty, each of them supporting their own troops, and they were mostly disobedient to the holy decree, and now in the past two months, thanks to the thunderous means of the little eunuch, there are still a few people who are obedient, and his holy decree is like a blank sheet of paper two months ago, no one birds him!
You must know that in history, when Li Zicheng's Eastern Expedition reached Taiyuan, Chongzhen ordered the transfer of troops to King Qin, and even sealed several counts in one go.
Chang Yu's meaning is to put it bluntly, it is to let him take the opportunity to win over the hearts of the army, but in fact, Emperor Chongzhen also has a hard time, he has seen a great change in temperament for a few months, and Wu Xiaowen has been criticized by the courtiers.
Just now he had an endless argument with Li Banghua and Wu Xuan about the military parade, and Ming'er is also ready to directly promote a group of people, if foreign soldiers are allowed to enter the city...... Those old men are still angry with their braids.
Li Yan, Zhou Yuji and other meritorious generals summoned him into the city or even entered the palace to commend him, but if the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses wanted to enter the city, it would be a bit chaotic......
But if you don't allow it, think about the tens of thousands of troops who have traveled thousands of miles for months to fight bloodily to defend the country, as Chang Yu said, the capital they desperately defended didn't even have a chance to come in and take a look, that heart is really cool and cool!
"Ming Jun governs the country, civil and martial arts are indispensable, whether it is to expand the territory or protect the ancestral foundation are indispensable to powerful force, now in this troubled world, the emperor needs to win more military hearts, the minister's previous words, can be able to become a great cause, but if you want to keep the ancestral industry to create a hegemony, you need a group of loyal generals, the emperor has the ambition of Zhongxing, when not cold his heart."
Chang Yu's words woke up Emperor Chongzhen like a dream, what the hell are the cabinet courtiers, what the hell can keep the Ming Dynasty alive in these years, it is those reckless men outside the city who don't know a few big characters, and those who can chant poetry and fight against the government and the opposition can only wag their tails and beg for mercy under the enemy's butcher's knife, and the fart is useless!
And at the moment, there are very few warlords who are willing to serve them, Tang Tong is the most well-behaved, Huang Degong, Zhou Yuji is also a saddle and a horse, and now there is another Li Yan, in addition to this, they are all wall grass!
"You are solely responsible for this matter, if someone is talking about it, I will have it" Chongzhen snorted coldly, Chang Yu actually saw a great pride from this emperor.
Emperor Chongzhen, who has always been soft, gradually hardened.
When it was almost dark after leaving the Qianqing Gate, Chang Yu hurriedly walked towards the Donghua Gate, and suddenly heard someone whispering to him, and saw that the prince Zhu Cihong was hiding in the shadows and beckoned to him with a happy face.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I haven't rested so late" Chang Yu hurriedly walked over, and Zhu Cihong grabbed him: "It's really difficult to see you after returning to Beijing for a long time, let's go, go to Duanben Palace, let's have a drink and have a good chat!" ”
"Your Highness, don't be impatient" Chang Yu grabbed Zhu Ci'an: "The ministers have been busy with official business for the past two days, and they really don't have time, so they have to go out of the palace now...... How about another day? ”
Ah, Zhu Cihong was suddenly extremely lost, you must know that he was a young man with a fun heart, but who dares to play with him in the palace, in fact, he is just a lonely teenager with no friends.
But since Chang Yu was born, he immediately regarded him as his only friend, yes, he never saw Chang Yu as a eunuch or a royal servant, he admired and relied on this young man of his own age.
He likes to listen to Chang Yu talk about some messy things that he doesn't understand, and he prefers to listen to Chang Yu talk about the battle between the two armies on the battlefield, and often fantasizes that he is the general who led thousands of troops and horses to sweep the enemy army, so much so that he recently abandoned Wen and practiced archery from Wutian every day.
To put it simply, he pinned his fantasies on Chang Yu many times.
"Why don't you take you out for a walk?" As a good friend, Chang Yu couldn't bear to see Zhu Ci'an, a young man in his wanton youth, being stuffed in the palace courtyard every day, and he was about to get sick.
Zhu Cihong almost jumped up and yelled.
As Chang Yu, who can enter and exit the imperial capital Sijiu City at will, and even knock on the Qianqing Gate, it is not difficult for him to take someone out of the palace, not to mention that those eunuchs and guards guarding the door will not care, even if they find out, they will pretend to be blind, who knows if they are ordered to leave the palace by the emperor, after all, the prince has also been ordered to leave the palace several times recently.
Zhu Cihong put on a eunuch coat and followed Chang Yu out of Donghua Gate with his head down, and the eunuchs and guards guarding the door greeted Chang Yu very enthusiastically, not even glancing at Zhu Ci'an behind him.
Then the two of them went out of Dong'an Gate again, and the gate of the imperial city was closed with a creak, and Zhu Cihong exhaled excitedly: "Where are we going, by the way, give Ben a ...... I'll tell you about the Tartars, from the Xianghe ......"
Chang Yu smiled bitterly, after telling Lao Tzu, he had to tell his son, why did this family love to listen to stories so much, stretched out his hand to help Zhu Cihong into the carriage, and then got in, the coachman Lao Hu Yang spurred the horse towards Beicheng, and dozens of relatives followed closely with knives.
When the time has passed, there are few pedestrians on the street, but the wine shop next to it is still full of people, the wheels make a cooing sound on the stone slab in the night seems abrupt, and the battle of dozens of swordsmen is even more eye-catching, from time to time someone probes and point, and take it for granted that it is the master of a wealthy family who travels.
Chang Yu leaned back on the carriage and leisurely told Zhu Cihong the story, and the laughter on the green building outside made Zhu Cihong, who was listening to the story attentively, displeased, and lifted the curtain to look at the drinkers and scolded in a low voice: "When the Tartar soldiers came to the city, they didn't forget to have fun, and now it's even worse, they seem to have nothing but pointing out the country and scolding the court, you and your father are too busy to sleep, they can't sleep."
Chang Yu chuckled and looked at Zhu Cihong word by word and said: "So, Daming is your old Zhu family's country, whether it is prosperous or declining is also your old Zhu family's business, others will not worry at all except laughing and scolding, remember, don't expect everything on others, many things have to be done by yourself, and many things have to be held in your own hands." ”
Zhu Cihong understood some of the meaning, but he was more concerned about another question: "Then are you someone else?" ”
Chang Yu shook his head: "I am a eunuch, the palace is my home, I am a royal person in life, and I am a royal ghost in death, of course I am not an outsider."
Zhu Cihong's nose was sour, and his eyes were wet and he grabbed Chang Yu's hand: "I have always regarded you as a friend, the only friend, do you know?" ”。
Chang Yu nodded: "The honor of the minister, the friendship lasts forever, long live the friendship!" ”
"Friendship lasts forever, long live friendship!" Zhu Cihong smiled with tears in his eyes.
Chang Yu sighed secretly, the child's mind is simple.
