Following the Marquis of Yangcheng and other three nobles, Chen Xin, the imperial historian of Henan Province, also played: "The minister also impeached the Jinyi Baihu Tian Ergeng, this bureaucrat in the name of cleaning up the military tun, poisoned the place, brutalized the gentry, and forcibly captured the people for military registration..."

Zhu Youzhen supported his chin with his right hand, looked thoughtfully, and generously impeached Tian Ergeng's several imperial historians. Now Zhu Youzhen is becoming more and more impatient to sit in a precarious position at the court meeting, and his severe crackdown on the science and technology officials has also made these science and technology officials more and more ignorant of Chongzhen's undignified behavior at the court meeting.

Sun Chengzong was at a loss at first, but then he looked at these nobles and officials with a pale face.

As the host of the new army and the future new martial arts, the restructuring of Yingzhou Sanwei is related to the key to the establishment of the new army, and naturally it has also received great attention from Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong once proposed to Chongzhen that the matter of cleaning up the military camp and the restructuring of the guard center was of great importance and should be handed over to honest and capable officials, such as officials like Yuan Chonghuan, but of course Chongzhen refused.

Now hearing that Xun Gui and Yanguan impeached Tian Ergeng, the principal of the Wei Institute's reform, Sun Chengzong first hated Tian Ergeng's actions and Meng Lang, and did not preside over the Wei Institute's reform well, but instead had a dispute with Xun Gui and the Jin Gentry over the cleanup of the military camp.

Although Sun Chengzong was not unaware of the invasion of the military tun by nobles, eunuchs, and local gentry, if he wanted to really do something in Daming, he couldn't offend too many people. Especially the nobles, eunuchs, and local gentry, although these people are not capable of doing anything, they can often do bad things.

As the impeachment rhetoric of the imperial historians became more and more intense, from attacking Tian Ergeng personally to involving the reform of the guard. Sun Chengzong's complaint against Tian Ergeng suddenly weakened, and what grew was his dissatisfaction with these nobles and local gentry who did not know the overall situation.

Sun Chengzong was trying to tell the difference between the mistakes made by Tian Ergeng and the restructuring of the Wei Institute.

Suddenly, I heard Chongzhen on the throne finally speak, "Today's court meeting has been held for too long, and I see that many officials are already exhausted, and it is not worth continuing to delay the time of the court meeting." I will discuss these matters at the next court meeting, and a few cabinet scholars should go back early today to rest, and there is no need to be on duty anymore. ”

After all, the gentry in Yingzhou are not well-known wealthy families, and there are only two or three officials in the province who are moving. And most of the science and technology officials are busy running for their official positions because of the matter of cleaning up the science and road of science and technology, and they have no intention of echoing the impeachment of these science and technology officials and getting involved in the troubled waters of the invasion and occupation of the military camp.

And the hundred officials of the DPRK and China only used some water and steamed buns at noon, and this kind of rough food naturally could not satisfy these officials. Most of the officials were exhausted, and they had long thought that they could end today's court meeting as soon as possible.

Therefore, although some officials at the court meeting felt that the matter of Tian Ergeng should be disposed of before ending the court meeting, there were few responders. In the end, the court meeting ended according to Chongzhen's intentions.

The Marquis of Yangcheng and several other nobles and the imperial history of impeachment of Tian Ergeng knelt on the ground confused, deeply puzzled by the current situation. According to their past experience, shouldn't the officials have responded to this kind of investigation of the military camp and the attack on the Jinyi Guard?

Especially for Tian Ergeng, who killed the Donglin Party, he was the enemy of the Donglin Party, but today these Donglin Party officials were unexpectedly silent.

Whether it is the Marquis of Yangcheng or the imperial history who stands out for the gentry, he has never thought about one thing, that is, why Chongzhen wants Sun Chengzong to be the host of the reform of the famous guard.

Sun Chengzong, as a veteran of the Donglin Party, and his identity as a divine teacher, can be said to be one of the banners of the Donglin Party.

How could these Donglin Party officials easily echo their attacks before they didn't know whether what Tian Ergeng did was related to Sun Chengzong.

At this time, although the Donglin Party occupied a dominant position in Shilin public opinion and the court's speech, the real power position of the six departments of the DPRK and Central Committee was still occupied by the so-called eunuch remnants and scholars close to the eunuch party.

Although Sun Chengzong's family was marginalized in the Donglin Party, Sun Chengzong was the only one entrusted by Chongzhen with important responsibilities and held an important position in the new army. The other Donglin leaders, although Chongzhen was very respectful on the surface, always gave them only some high-ranking and powerless official positions in the Ministry of Rites.

Although the civilian officials despised the military men, they never despised the military power. From the fact that the civilian clique has always prevented the integration of the five military governors and the government, and has always implemented the principle and policy of using civilians to control the military, it is clear that the civilian officials are still very concerned about who holds the military power.

For an opportunity to seize military power near Gyeonggi, how could the Donglin Party members tear down their own corners.

Although Tian Ergeng is Donglin's mortal enemy, in the face of power, there is no grudge that cannot be put down. The silence of the Donglin Party undoubtedly proves this.

Zhu Youzhen, who returned to the Qianqing Palace, summoned Lu Qi and instructed: "You go to the Daming Times Office now to find a few clever personnel, and take them to Yingzhou Tunwei to find Tian Ergeng." Under a detailed investigation, how he presided over the reform of the guard station and the clean-up of military affairs, as well as what happened between him and those nobles and local tycoons. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Lu Qi took the Dongchang token given to him by Wang Chengen and hurriedly exited the room.

After looking at Lu Qi's back in a daze for a while, Wang Chengen couldn't help but make up his mind, he turned to Chongzhen and whispered: "Your Majesty, there have been some strange rumors in the palace recently, and the minister doesn't know whether to say it or not. ”

"Let's hear what kind of rumors are there that make you feel the need to report to me." Zhu Youzhen picked up the hot tea that the waiter had just served, and said casually while blowing.

Wang Chengen's eyes were tightly fixed on Chongzhen's hands holding the teacup, and he said cautiously: "It is rumored in the palace that since this Steward Lu was suddenly promoted by His Majesty, he has been quite unpopular. His nature is so cold, and staying by His Majesty's side is probably not a blessing for the community. ”

Zhu Youzhen's action of delivering tea to his mouth suddenly stopped, and only continued after a few seconds. After taking a sip of tea, he looked up at Wang Chengen and said, "It seems that the attendants in this palace are too relaxed, and they still have the leisure to spread these gossip." Let Wang Dehua rectify the order in the palace, and let those who deliberately spread rumors go out of the palace to retire. ”

Wang Chengen's face changed instantly, but he quickly returned to normal, and he replied respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Youzhen thought about it again, and instructed Wang Chengen: "Let the celebrant supervise and check whether there are any nobles involved in the past sparseness, especially Xue Lian, Marquis of Yangwu, Liu Zuochang, Marquis of Anyuan, and Zhang Gongri, Marquis of Longping. In addition, he sent a personal notice to the right deputy imperial envoy, asking him to check the background and resume of Chen Xin, the imperial historian of Henan Province, and who entrusted him with this time. ”

Wang Chengen agreed and exited the upper study, then left the palace, walked out of the Xuanwu Gate at the north gate of the Forbidden City, and came to the duty room of the master of ceremonies next to the Shangyi Supervisor.

One of the two eunuchs guarding outside the celebrant duty room immediately stepped forward to guide Wang Chengen, and the other hurriedly entered the duty room to inform Wang Chengen of his arrival.

Wang Tiqian, Li Chaoqin, Xu Yingyuan, Liu Ruoyu and other eunuchs suddenly went out to greet him, Wang Chengen strode towards the inner room of the duty room, and said hurriedly: "You don't have to make these false courtesies, the miscellaneous family is here by order, Wang Tiqian, Li Chaoqin, and Xu Yingyuan will come in with me, and the rest of the people will disperse." ”

The two eunuchs who came with Wang Chengen suddenly stopped and stood outside the door of the inner room, guarding the gatehouse and not allowing others to disturb it.

After following Wang Chengen into the room, Wang Tiqian and Li Chaoqin greeted Wang Chengen with a smile on their faces, and said: "What kind of order did the factory gong give, we should do our best to serve Your Majesty." ”

Wang Chengen had no intention of entertaining the two, and just commanded coldly: "Pick out all the pieces about the impeachment of the nobles and the lawlessness, except for the British Mansion." It's best to have the most recent impeachment, and if you can't do it, look for it within this year. Your Majesty is waiting to check it, and the miscellaneous family is waiting here, and when it is finished, the miscellaneous family will take it away and hand it over to Your Majesty. ”

Wang Tiqian and Li Chaoqin looked at each other, and thought secretly in their hearts: "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to attack that nobleman?" ”

Wang Tiqian glanced at Li Chaoqin, and Li Chaoqin stepped forward clearly and said tentatively: "I don't know if Your Majesty intends to rectify that nobleman, as long as the factory official makes it clear, I will have a good target." ”

Wang Chengen glanced at Li Chaoqin with some vigilance, and then said with a straight face: "Your Majesty just wants to see the past comments of these nobles, and has no intention of doing anything. Don't make your own opinions, but figure out the divine will. ”

For Wang Tiqian and Li Chaoqin, Wang Chengen stared very closely. The two followed Wei Zhongxian to squeeze out his stepfather, Cao Huachun, and after Wei Zhongxian lost power, he wanted to regain Chongzhen's trust and keep his position.

In Wang Chengen's view, the character of these two people is really inferior, and they should not be entrusted with the important responsibility of the celebrant supervisor. But Chongzhen still put the two of them in charge of the celebrant supervisor, which made Wang Chengen a little helpless.

was guarded against by Wang Chengen, and Wang Tiqian and Li Chaoqin could only withdraw from the inner room in mockery.

Xu Yingyuan, who was left behind by Wang Chengen, couldn't help but say curiously: "Does the prince plan to say anything private with the miscellaneous family?" ”

Wang Chengen sighed and said to him: "The rumors of Lu Qi have been spreading in the palace in the past few days, so let's let it go first?" ”

Xu Yingyuan suddenly frowned, looked at Wang Chengen and said suspiciously: "I asked the miscellaneous family to spread rumors, but it was your idea, princess. Now that you have asked the miscellaneous family to stop, it is possible that Lu Qi has surrendered to the prince, so the prince is going to do it now..."

Wang Chengen immediately interrupted Xu Yingyuan's wild speculation, and just frowned and said, "Lu Qi, the saint is not declining." ”
