Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 372: Civil Revolt in Shanxi
"Wang Banban, do you think that Zhu Chunchen's coming to Qianqing Palace is really to share my worries?"

Emperor Chongzhen leaned on the dragon chair, closed his eyes and meditated, and said to Wang Chengen: "What do you think about Zhu Chunchen?"

"My lord..."

Wang Chengen was a little hesitant, he didn't know what to say, he was indeed an eunuch who was in charge of ceremonies, and he was indeed trusted by his own emperor.

But it is somewhat taboo to talk about the relatives of the current court indiscriminately.

"I tell you to tell the truth."

Emperor Chongzhen heard Wang Chengen's scruples, and said: "If the king's companions dare not speak the truth in front of me, then who else can I trust?"

There was a warm current in Wang Chengen's heart, and he bowed and said, "My lord... this servant thinks it's strange that Duke Cheng is here to clean up the palace, and he is still in this state.

And just now, the servant and servant noticed that Cheng Guogong didn't say something, it seemed that the emperor said something that made him dare not... No, it should be that he didn't intend to say it.

Cheng Guogong has always been very stable in character and temperament, and no flaws can be seen by others, but it is so, the slaves always feel a little uncertain. "

Listening to what Wang Chengen said, Emperor Chongzhen showed a little smile, who said that there are no talents by his side?

Daming has never been short of talents!
It's just that the previous bad atmosphere led to a large number of talents without a chance to be promoted.

It seems that in this regard in the future, I need to be more vigilant.

If the huge group of eunuchs and eunuchs in the inner court can be used well, just tossing around under the rule of Beizhili will surely give him unexpected gains.

"It's a good thing to have your own ideas."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded approvingly and said: "In the future, you must advise me more, and report to me in time if you think there is a problem.

Wang Banban, I have served by my side since Xin Wangfu, and I also know Wang Banban, and I know in my heart what to do and what not to do.

Right now, there are many hidden dangers hidden in the court, including the place, and it is impossible for me to detect them all by myself. "

When dealing with a loyal servant like Wang Chengen, Emperor Chongzhen's trust and patience for him were far higher than others.

After all, when Jiashen was in such a state of distress, Wang Cheng'en died generously without any hesitation. If Emperor Chongzhen didn't trust such a loyal servant, then in the Ming Dynasty, who else would be worthy of Emperor Chongzhen? to trust?
"My lord...do you want my slaves to choose some reliable eunuchs and leave the palace to secretly check on Cheng Guogong?" Wang Chengen thought for a while, then leaned forward and said, "Slaves always feel that..."

"This idea is good."

Emperor Chongzhen leaned forward, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "But we can't just limit our attention to Zhu Chunchen alone.

The incumbent relatives of the capital governor's mansion, including the incumbent relatives of the Beijing camp, and the incumbent relatives who were deposed by me before, have arranged some manpower to conduct a secret investigation.

My intuition tells me that some of them must be inseparable from the current incident of raising food prices and cloth prices in Gyeonggi.

Give me a good investigation!
You know this matter, I know it, and you must not let outsiders know about it. The eunuchs selected by the inner factory must be loyal, reliable, and smart. "

"The slaves obey the orders!"

Wang Chengen responded immediately.

If Zhu Chunchen didn't come this time, then even if Emperor Chongzhen investigated his relatives in Beijing, it would be through the hands of Luo Yangxing, but since he came, it meant that things must not be simple.

Since this is the case, it is necessary to choose a relatively trusted group to investigate the matter secretly.

In the current Ming Dynasty, it is too common for monarchs and ministers to test each other and speculate on each other.

Once the atmosphere is broken, it will not be accomplished overnight if you want to set it right.

Especially for the group of relatives in Daming, most of them have already deviated from their original intentions.

The Ming Dynasty bestowed hereditary and irreplaceable honor on them, making most of them refined and self-interested.

I want to reverse the political ecology of 'the gentlemen are noble and the military are cheap'.

Relying on trustworthy relatives, eradicating those with broken consciences, and then relying on the follow-up war to confer a new batch of relatives is what Emperor Chongzhen will do.

A multi-pronged approach to governing Daming can make the messy Daming gradually resolved. Only in this way can Daming be revived.

Emperor Chongzhen did not expect that so many "surprises" would come out to him about the resettlement of refugees from Shanshan and Shaanxi. If this is not resolved properly, wouldn't it be a waste of this opportunity?

"rustle……"

Outside the East Nuan Pavilion, there was a rush of footsteps.

"My lord, something serious happened!"

Han Zanzhou's voice sounded outside the hall, causing Emperor Chongzhen to frown.

"What are you panicking, the sky still won't fall!"

Seeing the flustered Han Zanzhou walking into the East Nuan Pavilion with a stack of memorials in his hands, Emperor Chongzhen frowned and shouted: "How is it proper to be so flustered?"

puff~
Facing the emperor's reprimand, Han Zanzhou knelt on the ground and saluted, "Your servant is guilty, please punish me!"

"Say, what happened?"

Seeing Han Zanzhou like this, Emperor Chongzhen showed a look of disgust on his face, and frowned: "I can't tell the priority, how did you become a eunuch, the supervisor of ceremonies!"

"The slave is guilty."

Han Zanzhou couldn't hide his fear, he hurriedly said: "It's Li Banghua, the Minister of Military Aircraft, the left servant of the Ministry of War, who submitted the secret memorial in Shanxi, and Mao Chenglu, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi from the Four Guards Camp also presented the secret memorial.

Yan... under the rule of Duofu County in Shanxi Province, civil unrest broke out..."

OK!

It's really good enough!
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, his expression immediately turned cold.

There was no civil unrest in Shanxi earlier, and there was no civil unrest in the evening. It happened that Li Banghua ordered Li Banghua to clean up Shanxi's officialdom, and this civil unrest occurred.

That intention couldn't be more obvious.

Wang Chengen, who was serving by his side, didn't dare to be careless, walked towards Han Zanzhou quickly, bent down to pick up the secret music, and then walked towards his emperor.

"You go back first."

Looking at these secret performances in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen's deep eyes shone brightly, and he said coldly: "If you dare to spread this matter in the inner court, I will kill you."

"The slaves dare not!"

When Han Zanzhou heard the words, his body was like sifting chaff, and he immediately saluted and responded.

Although Emperor Chongzhen knew in his heart that he would not be able to suppress the civil unrest in Shanxi for long, but if he could suppress it for one more day, he would be less passive.

Just now, I was planning to do a small test, to fix the bad atmosphere in the local official circles of the Ming Dynasty, and wanted to kill a group of corrupt officials, so as to frighten the Ming court and the local government.

But before the matter was finished, such a thing happened. It seems that the foundations of the various places under the rule of Ming Dynasty have been corrupted beyond my imagination.
