Chapter 1009: Speak Up
The next day, Zhu Guochang, the imperial historian, took the lead in playing and asked for credit for Chen Yue, the king of Qi.
"The king of Qi first expelled the Manchu Tartars to recover the old land, and then commanded the army to defeat the 200,000 army of the thieves with Tongguan and Puzhou, forcing the thieves to flee westward in a hurry, and the recovery of the entire territory of Shaanxi is just around the corner, washing away the humiliation of the fall of Beijing in the Ming Dynasty!
When the king of Qi heard that the rebels of Ainengqi had captured Fujian and Zhejiang, they marched to Jiangdong, and approached the capital of our Ming Dynasty, regardless of the fatigue and pain of the long-term battle, he immediately waved his army to the south, and rushed thousands of miles to cross the Yangtze River.
The merits of the King of Qi are enough to cover the world, and the loyalty of the King of Qi is heard all over the world. And I have internal and external troubles, if there is no King of Qi to fight in the south and north for several years, how can there be the current situation?
The title of the king of Qi has reached the peak and can no longer be sealed, so Weichen suggested that the king of Qi should be given a prominent position and the government should be rewarded for his great merit.
With the king of Qi leading the court, he will be able to fight the Tartars outside, and the traitors will be pacified internally, and I will return the peace of the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, and my Ming Zhongxing is in sight! “
Zhu Guochang sprinkled a tirade, singing praises for the king of Qi Chen Yue in the court, and finally suggested that the king of Qi should be in charge of the court to reward his great achievements!
And Zhu Guochang said, and many officials stepped forward to comply, singing praises for King Qi, and for a time they actually formed the appearance of the Manchu Dynasty supporting Chen Yue, which surprised Lu Zhenfei, a bachelor who had just returned to the court.
Once upon a time, Chen Yue, the king of Qi, was full of enemies in the court, and there were few ministers in the lineage. However, now, it is really incredible that so many courtiers have supported Chen Yue!
Is Chen Yue's charm big enough to conquer so many officials? No, Lu Zhenfei knows that this is because Chen Yue's strength is so strong that these people dare not object, and the lifeblood of these people is also in the hands of Chen Yue, so there is this situation!
Lu Zhenfei was surprised and sighed, and Chongzhen, who was sitting on the throne, was even more turbulent and angry in his heart. Although it has been decided to pass on the throne to his daughter Kun Xing, and then marry Kun Xing to Chen Yue, it is equivalent to indirectly handing over the country to Chen Yue. Ordering Chen Yue to enter Beijing is to put him in power, and Chongzhen has decided to delegate power and retreat into the background.
However, this situation in the court still made him angry! Betrayal, this is a shameless betrayal, these civil officials who should be killed saw that Chen Yue was powerful, so they betrayed the royal family and threw themselves on Chen Yue's side! These shameless people, I have long said that they should all be killed!
Hmph, do you think you can get benefits by taking the initiative to defect to Chen Yue? Chen Yue is not me, his methods are much more powerful and cruel than me, and you will soon taste regret!
The crown princess Kun Xing sat on the side of Chongzhen's hand, she is now learning to listen to the government, seeing this situation, she can't help but look back at her father worriedly.
Looking at his daughter's worried face, Chongzhen took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. At this point, there is no room for regret. If you toss it again, Daming Zhen's society will not be guaranteed, and Chongzhen naturally understands this truth.
However, could it be that the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty were all people who tended to be inflammatory? Isn't there a person who is loyal to me and loyal to the Ming Dynasty? I have been a monk for 300 years, how can I have such an end?
"The great merit of the King of Qi can be rewarded with silver to seal his wife, and His Majesty has rewarded the territory beyond the Great Wall for his great merit. However, no matter how great the merit of King Qi is, he is just a noble general, how can he rule the country? ”
Just when the ministers were speaking to let Chen Yue take power, a different voice suddenly sounded. Chongzhen was suddenly shocked, and looked fixedly, but it was Liu Zongzhou, the new imperial envoy of the right capital!
Liu Zongzhou is a generation of great Confucianism, an academic master, whose writings are numerous and have a high prestige in Shilin. What is even more rare is that he is very virtuous, extremely honest as an official, and also restricts his family. Although his official reputation is great, his Shaoxing family has not annexed land at all, oppressed the good, and adhered to the way of poverty. Even the rebels captured Shaoxing, and they didn't dare to humiliate their families!
If others oppose it, it will inevitably be attacked by the imperial historians, but when Liu Zongzhou spoke, the officials and courtiers looked at each other, and they didn't dare to speak ill of each other!
Qian Qianyi let out a long sigh and looked at Li Zhan, the imperial history of the left capital. At this time, Qian Qianyi didn't dare to come forward and put Liu Zongzhou directly.
Li Zhan, the imperial history of the left capital, had no choice, he had to come forward, the imperial envoy of the Imperial Procuratorate, he was still on the imperial envoy of Liu Zongzhou and the imperial envoy of the right capital, and Liu Zongzhou was half of his subordinate.
"Brother Qidong, although the King of Qi is a noble general, he is not an illiterate martial artist, he has a lot of strategies in his chest, and he knows the policy of determining the country and the people, why not let him govern?" Li Zhan persuaded.
Liu Zongzhou looked at Li Zhan coldly: "Lord Zuoxian, my Ming Dynasty is the ancestral system of Wen Yuwu, starting from Taizu, has there ever been a military general as prime minister or prime minister?" Is the king of Zhongshan a big contribution? Can you be the prime minister?
Although the King of Qi has made great contributions, His Majesty opened the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion for him, appointed him as the Metropolitan Governor in charge of the country's soldiers and horses, and sealed the northern part of the country, and the reward given to him is not ungenerous! Now you still want to let the king of Qi rule, in this way, the king of Qi is in charge of the army and the government, and his power can be described as the sky, so where is Your Majesty? “
Li Zhan was suddenly silent and didn't dare to say any more.
Chen Yue is in charge of both the army and the government, isn't he equivalent to the emperor? And the emperor still has a cabinet and six branches to restrain him, but who does Chen Yue, the king of Qi, let restrain him?
If you continue to talk about it, you will be suspected of disobedience, even if Li Zhan is sincere, he has to take care of his reputation.
Li Zhan didn't dare to say more, the imperial historians didn't dare to say more, and the other courtiers were even more silent. Qian Qianyi sighed again and again in his heart, knowing that even if he opened his mouth, he would be scolded back by Liu Zongzhou without hesitation.
Liu Zongzhou occupies the righteousness and occupies the commanding heights of morality, although many people are shameless in their hearts, they dare not put their shamelessness in front of everyone.
At this time, the only one who can be counted on is Emperor Chongzhen. So, Qian Qianyi looked at Chongzhen with hope, and he knew that at this time, Chongzhen should be able to speak.
Seeing Liu Zongzhou speak up for himself, Chongzhen almost didn't shed tears. But he knew that although Liu Zongzhou was thinking about himself and the Ming Dynasty, he couldn't change anything at all.
If you don't agree with Chen Yue's governance, you will inevitably anger Chen Yue, what will happen to you, and what will happen to Daming? Even Chongzhen was deeply afraid.
If it's just Chongzhen's own life, Chongzhen is not afraid, but what is involved is the Ming Dynasty? Can it be passed on?
Passing on the country to her daughter and then to her grandson is already the best choice! It's better than not protecting the society and not surviving, so wouldn't you become a sinner for the ages?
Thinking of this, Chongzhen knew that he had to speak.
