Qin Shuhuai entered the imperial study and greeted Chongzhen with a smile. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Minister Qin Shuhuai knocks to see the emperor, may my emperor ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Chongzhen stepped forward to help him up.

"Brother Qin doesn't have to be polite. ”

Then he turned to Wang Dehua and said, "You go out first." ”

Wang Dehua withdrew very interestingly, and at the same time motioned for the other two little eunuchs to go out as well.

Chongzhen said excitedly, "Brother Qin, I've heard that you have made a big fuss in Jiangnan! Haha, tell me in detail what you did in Jiangnan later." ”

After Chongzhen went out with Qin Shuhuai for a "private visit to Weifu" last time, he became more interested in folk affairs. He can't go to Jiangnan together, so he can only let Qin Shuhuai talk about it again, and it's okay to have an addiction.

Qin Shuhuai then told the story of how he tracked down the case of the Zhao family's extermination in Jiangnan, how he discovered smuggling along the coast of Zhejiang, and how he blackmailed the governor of Zhejiang. Of course, except for the matter of the Shifting Flower Palace, he hid it and didn't say anything, there was no need to let Chongzhen know about this kind of thing.

Chongzhen listened with relish, sometimes angry, sometimes nervous, sometimes laughing, as if he was listening to a very interesting commentary.

Especially when Qin Shuhuai said that he deliberately humiliated the governor of Zhejiang and asked his concubine to spend the night with him, he beat his chest with laughter.

"Brother Qin, you, you're too bullying, haha, poor Wang Huazhen is in his sixties, but he is still bullied by you like this, I am a little upset for him, haha. ”

Qin Shuhuai didn't smile, but said with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, do you know why I want to humiliate him like this?"

"Why? Isn't it because he's a corrupt official in Donglin?"

"It's true that he is a corrupt official in Donglin, but what makes the ministers want to kill him is that when this bastard was the governor of Liaodong, in order to shirk the responsibility for the fall of Shenyang City, he reversed black and white and framed Zhongliang, I don't know how many loyal ministers and good people because of his few words, and they were called traitors and traitors, and died unjustly!"

Chongzhen's eyes widened, "Brother Qin, is this really the case?"

Qin Shuhuai immediately told him how the city of Shenyang fell back then, how Wang Huazhen colluded with the guerrilla general Wang Baochang to slander the Shenyang general Chen Luoli for colluding with foreign enemies, causing Chen Luo's entire family to be beheaded all over the house, and thousands of officers and soldiers under Chen Luo were classified as rebels.

When Chongzhen heard this, he was immediately furious.

"Wang Huazhen, an old horseman, can do such a thing that has lost his conscience! Isn't he afraid that those loyal souls who died unjustly will seek revenge on him? Brother Qin, you can investigate this matter, as long as the evidence of the crime is conclusive, I will cut him with a thousand knives!"

Qin Shuhuai said in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, it has been a long time since the events of that year, although the minister found the surviving soldiers of that year as witnesses, but presumably those Donglin Party members will protect him in every possible way and will not accept them." Now the minister only has ironclad evidence of his corruption and perversion of the law in his tenure as governor of Zhejiang, although it is more than enough to punish him for the crime of Ling Chi, but it is extremely difficult to convict him of framing Zhongliang!"

Chongzhen waved his sleeves and said angrily, "No, I want to give an explanation to the soldiers who died unjustly back then! Of course, he must deal with the crime of corruption, but he must also deal with the crime of framing Zhongliang! Brother Qin, when the time comes, you will let those surviving soldiers testify, whether there is circumstantial evidence or not, I will punish him for this great crime!"

When Qin Shuhuai saw Chongzhen say this, he immediately begged and said, "The minister obeys the order! The minister will thank the emperor for Chen Luo and thousands of soldiers!"

Xindao, Qing'er, Qi's, I have already done half of what I promised you. Don't worry, General Chen's grievances will soon be revealed!

Chongzhen knocked on the table angrily, and then there was silence.

From Qin Shuhuai's trip to the south of the Yangtze River, it is not difficult to see that the power of the Donglin Party has spread all over the world, and what it has done has reached a heinous point. In the eyes of these Donglin party members, there are only a few party leaders at all, and there is no emperor in sight.

Let's not talk about Wang Huazhen's framing of Zhongliang back then, just the fact that the coastal areas of Zhejiang have opened up foreign cities without permission, if it weren't for Qin Shuhuai's own words, Chongzhen wouldn't have believed it. Because he still clearly remembers how the Donglin Party members generously presented a speech in the court last year, asking the court to enforce the sea ban.

After a while, Chongzhen gritted his teeth and said, "These bastards are even more hateful than the eunuchs." Brother Qin, do you know what Zhou Yanru was talking about just now? He actually dared to command me to let me hook up one-third of the officials of this year's anthropomorphic ministries, and then replace them with the people they nominated! Bastard, I can't wait to take him down on the spot!"

After Chongzhen's "micro-service private visit", he also learned the words of the folk scolding, and scolded a few words when he was angry, which felt particularly useful.

Qin Shuhuai smiled and said to Chongzhen, "The emperor should be patient first, and after the ministers go to the three sides and take Yang He's military power, it will not be too late to clean them up." ”

Chongzhen nodded, "After cleaning up Yang He, I will choose a good general on the three sides to guard it, and then I will mobilize the Datong Army and part of the Guanning Army to garrison the capital, and then start to clean up the governors of various places, what do you think, Brother Qin?"

When Qin Shuhuai heard that Chongzhen had already thought of transferring troops to garrison the capital, he knew that he couldn't wait to clean up Donglin, so he immediately said, "Your Majesty Shengming! The Donglin Party should be eliminated as soon as possible! As long as the Donglin Party is removed, many things will be much easier." ”

Chongzhen thought for a while, and then said, "By the way, I originally wanted to ask you, what do you think about Zhou Yanru forcing me to use the officials he nominated?"

Qin Shuhuai said with a smile, "Zhou Yanru is looking for death by himself, then the emperor will fulfill him." If you delay this matter first, he will definitely be tempted to take it out during the court meeting and force you to agree. When the time comes, you will pretend to back down and use the officials he nominated. Naturally, the pen officer will record this matter, and when the time comes, he will be guilty of trespassing, deception, and rebellion, which is not the crime of Ling Chi being put to death?"

When Chongzhen heard this, he immediately laughed with Yin.

"Brother Qin said it well! He dared to force me, it was not arrogance, it was not deception, it was not arrogance, what was it? Well, in this way, even if no other evidence of his crimes could be found in the future, this incident alone would be enough to rob his house and behead him. ”

After a pause, he said, "By the way, I have already found someone to investigate the Hong Chengchou you mentioned last time, but this person is talented, and this person is quite assertive, and he has a disagreement with his boss Yang He because of the strategy of suppressing bandits, so the relationship is not good." Yang He is a senior member of the Donglin Party, Hong Chengchou did not go to Yang He, and he must have no feeling for Donglin. Such a talent is really rare. Brother Qin, I would like to thank you for your recommendation. ”

Qin Shuhuai said, "Your Majesty, although the Donglin Party members claim to be all the scholars in the world, there are also many officials in our court who have a clear conscience and disdain to be in the same stream as Donglin. For example, Li Fu, the prefect of Ningbo, who you just told you about, is like this. ”

"Li Fumo...... At the beginning of the year, I also received a petition against him. However, Luo Yangxing said that this person had a good reputation in Ningbo Mansion, and I wanted to be happy that it would be another civilian-official fight, so I put it on hold. But then again, although this person has the heart of serving the people, he also ignores the laws of the court, and I can not punish or reward. But if you reuse him in the future, will there be something wrong?"
