Ming Zuo

Chapter 39 Game
Zuo Menggeng made an appearance when he stabbed the bandits in the back, and was seen by the pilgrims who were mixed in.

When he went out of the city, he showed traces, so Xu Yaqing got the news.

Xu Yaqing didn't know that he was from Linqing, but when he appeared here, he was actually going home, and he mistakenly thought that he was coming after him.

Wen Xiangjiao is a fugitive wanted by the court, how could Xu Yaqing allow the danger to exist, and simply attack first.

If Xu Yaqing succeeded in that siege, then the Battle of Chaoguan would never happen.

Because of the information about Wenxiang Sect, Feng Lun knew that Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin did not go to Linqing, so there was no reason to launch it.

But Zuo Liangyu appeared at the right time, causing Xu Yaqing to fail.

Xu Yaqing didn't dare to stay in Linqing and ran away, so Feng Lun couldn't get the information he wanted.

On the verge of life and death, this dog eunuch decided to take a gamble and blew up the Chaoguan Wharf.

The impact of this battle is as great as that of the Wang Gong factory explosion two years ago.

There are many articles on how the court should deal with it.

However, the capital is too far away, and Zuo Menggeng can't control it.

However, Lu Wazi's ingenuity made him quite like it.

"Zhang Yan, take these two children back and take good care of them."

Zuo Menggeng gave [-] taels of silver and handed over the two children to Zhang Yan to raise them in Zhuangzi.

Zhang Yan didn't talk nonsense, he took the money and went with his two children who survived the disaster.

Liu Yiyuan was still thinking about his words and asked, "Where are you going to start?"

Zuo Menggeng shook his head, not fully sure.

"Look at the follow-up, how is the game on the Chaotang side."

..............................

The Forbidden City in the middle of the night is like a giant beast lying on the ground, ready to devour everything in the world at any time.

Faced with such a behemoth, small humans can't help but feel awe.

However, there were people who did not care about the majesty of the imperial city. They walked fast in the Forbidden City, rushed all the way, and finally broke into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Your Majesty, there is a [-]-mile emergency report in Linqing."

On the kang in the back room of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, a thin young man was watching the memorial attentively.

This man is wearing a bright yellow Taoist robe, with loose hair, casual yet majestic, and he is the master of today's bright future, Emperor Zhu Youjian of Chongzhen.

Eight hundred miles of urgent report, indicating that the situation is urgent, made Chongzhen's face flash a look of worry.

"Bring it up."

The little eunuch took two steps on his knees and reported the urgent report to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen picked it up, Fang glanced at it, and was immediately furious, he threw the table directly, and the roar resounded through the hall.

"You bitch, how dare you do this?"

The servants inside and outside the house were all silent, for fear of bringing disaster to Chiyu.

An old eunuch walked out of the shadow and calmed down carefully.

"Your Majesty is precious and precious, and he is of the national origin. No damage is allowed. Please calm your anger."

Seeing this person, Chongzhen's anger finally dissipated a little, but it was like an old and angry lion.

"Dude, Wei Zhongxian is dead but not dead, and something has happened."

That old eunuch was the old man Wang Chengen who was in Chongzhen's Mansion.

He didn't know what was written in the emergency newspaper, and he didn't read it. He only cared about serving Chongzhen.

"The great disaster, with the emperor in charge of the universe, can be settled in an instant."

This loyalty moved Chongzhen quite a bit. He finally calmed down and told the story.

"Feng Lun, the eunuch guarding Linqing, brazenly used gunpowder to blow up the Shaoguan Wharf, causing countless casualties to the common people, in an attempt to kidnap Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin, in an act of great treason."

Wang Chengen was surprised.

"Remember, Wei Zhongxian and Li Chaoqin didn't go through the canal."

Chongzhen's face flashed with contentment.

"I had long expected that Wei Yi's filial son and grandson would not be reconciled, so how could he have not planned and prepared? Feng Lun was mad at this time, but his success came in vain."

Wang Chengen flattered a little.

"Your Majesty sees thousands of miles away, and the hole is like a candle. Wei Zhongxian will be captured without hesitation, and Feng Lun is just a grandson monkey in the palm of the Buddha's hand."

Chongzhen snorted coldly.

"Is he even a descendant of Sun Wukong? He was beheaded on the spot before he could use Zhen to make a move."

Wang Chengen smiled.

"It seems that the local officials in Laiqing are still serving loyally and bravely."

Chongzhen looked strange.

"A minister of the Ministry of War, a governor of Shuntian, a servant and a young minister, a magistrate of Dongchang, plus a former Liaodong governor, and a local garrison in Linqing, if they can't hang Feng Lun this beast, it will be strange. "

Wang Chengen bowed his waist and said good things in his mouth, but he was actually anxious.

After the eunuchs were killed, a large number of vacancies appeared in the inner court.

He was one of the most trustworthy eunuchs in Chongzhen, and was appointed as a pen eunuch.However, he has been in office for a short time, and many clues have not been cleared up yet.

Seeing that Chongzhen was furious, he did not understand how serious this matter was.

At the court meeting on the second day, the atmosphere under the dark clouds made Wang Chengen know that something was wrong.

Chongzhen received news of the Linqing change last night, and the ministers also received it at dawn.

The guarding eunuch used gunpowder and gangsters to blow up the pier at Chaoguan, and brazenly robbed the prisoners. As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked.

Previously, Chongzhen picked up a knife and quickly and neatly cleaned up Wei Zhongxian and a group of eunuchs, making everyone mistakenly think that eunuchs were vulnerable.

But what happened in Linqing hit Chongzhen and the court heavily.

A mere guarding eunuch almost caused a catastrophe.

Many people thought that if Feng Lun really took Wei Zhongxian away, the remaining eunuchs would probably respond one after another, causing chaos in the world.

For a time, many officials looked at the few eunuch officials left in the court with murderous expressions.

Han Xu, who had just returned to the capital, came out of the crowd. As the chief assistant, he had to make a statement.

And as a Donglin boss, it is his task to kill the eunuchs.

"Your Majesty, the remnants of the eunuchs will not die. If the evil is not exhausted, the minister is afraid that the country will be swayed and the society and crops will be unstable."

Qian Longxi also came out.

Although Han Xu's return made him very dissatisfied, their position on dealing with the eunuchs was the same.

"Today, Feng Lun dared to follow Bolang's actions. I don't know how many eunuchs are still loyal to the inner court and the outer court. I have to be careful for fear of His Majesty's safety."

As soon as these words came out, all the eunuch officials present were horrified.

This is to expand the attack surface!
But darn Feng Lun made such a shocking act, what should they do?

For a time, both Donglin officials and eunuch officials hated Feng Lun thoroughly.

There are two big bosses taking the lead, and all the officials have spoken out one after another, and they are united. It seems that they will not give up until all the eunuchs are killed.

Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair, watching the screaming and screaming below, instinctively felt a trace of fear.

If there is no eunuch party, the whole dynasty will be Donglin...

Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Chongzhen's eyes searched among the ministers, and suddenly said, "Wen Qing, what do you think?"

The person he has high hopes for is Wen Tiren.

Although Chongzhen was young, he was good at the art of emperors.

At the beginning of his ascension, after clearing the eunuchs, he found that most of the vacancies in the court hall were occupied by Donglin. He instinctively sensed that something was wrong, so he began to promote officials from the non-Donglin faction.

Wen Tiren, a rising star of the Zhejiang Party, entered his field of vision and led the headquarter as the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, just like a minister.

The left servant Xu Guangqi was completely suppressed, and he had no right to speak at all.

When the whole court was shouting and killing, Wen Tiren knew that the emperor didn't want it.

Especially those remaining eunuch officials, Chongzhen did not want to deal with them.Otherwise, no one would attack Liu Hongxun.

Now Liu Hongxun is devastated and haggard from being attacked, I'm afraid he won't last long.

Wen Tiren received Chongzhen's hint long ago, and planned to train him into the cabinet.

In this case, it is necessary to relieve the boss's worries.

"Your Majesty, this minister believes that all the reasons are due to Wei Zhongxian. As long as this point is grasped, the matter of Feng Lun will never happen again."

Wen Tiren found a breaking point.

The reason why the remnants of the eunuchs dared to make such a heartless act is because Wei Zhongxian is still alive, and those people feel that there is still a chance to come back.

Wen Tiren proposed a way to draw wages from the bottom of the pot.

As long as Wei Zhongxian is dead, there is no hope for the remaining eunuch members.

If you don't want to be besieged by the Donglin Party, you can only bow down to the emperor, and the emperor can also gain a group of loyal lackeys.

Chongzhen heard the mystery at once, and couldn't help but admire Wen Tiren.

He wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian for a long time.

It's just because Wei Zhongxian was the late emperor's dying minister, and he killed him as soon as he ascended the throne, worried that the world would say that he was ruthless.

But now Feng Lun's evil deeds have become the best excuse.

Chongzhen followed the advice and said immediately: "So... go and do it with Jinyiwei."

After thinking about it, he was also afraid that the Donglin officials would be dissatisfied, and he added conditions for compromise.

"The decree will go on, recall the guards, tax supervisors, and mine supervisors from various places, and return to the local government."

Han Xu and Qian Longxi looked at each other and found that the little emperor on the dragon chair seemed a little strange.

With just one move, the atmosphere in the courtroom became weird.

Many officials were thinking in their hearts, wondering what kind of signal the emperor's move was.

After Wen Tiren said his opinion, he returned to his position.The eyes look at the nose, the nose looks at the heart, as if nothing matters to him.

The officials of Donglin were disappointed, but they were unable to fight again.

You say you want to punish the eunuchs...

Yes, the emperor personally ordered the removal of Wei Zhongxian, and even the lawless guards, tax supervisors, and mine supervisors were recruited back.

Is there any reason to keep going after the others?
