The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 830 Loyal Officials Don't Matter 2 Masters

Chapter 830
The dozens of ministers who followed Zhang Zhiji to break through should be one of the few loyal ministers to Ming Dynasty. They came to Tianjin Wei and learned that the late emperor had died for the country on the fourth day, and everyone was inexplicably sad and angry.

Ni Yuanlu, Shi Bangzhao, Fan Jingwen and more than a dozen ministers cried heart-rendingly, and they also clamored to hang themselves to die for their country.

Of course, these people did not die, and were persuaded by other people.But they really died in the whole festival in history, and now there is a deviation in history.

Zhang Zhiji led his servants, soldiers from the Beijing camp, and musketeers of the internal army to break out of the capital, and these ministers had the opportunity to lead his confidant servants to break out of the siege together with the righteousness of defending the prince.

Although most of these people are people of high morals, they are also the ones who cause trouble for Huang Sheng. They have the reputation of being upright, they have the dogmatism of loyal ministers and the determination to dare to die, they are really stinky and hard Not easy to deal with.

Cheng Dashi, Zhang Zhiji, and Cao Huachun lobbied the officials to persuade them to advance, and the vast majority of civil and military officials in the Ming Dynasty followed the trend and became activists in encouraging them to advance.

On the contrary, it was because Zhang Zhiji was not afraid of life and death that the group of civil servants who led the troops out of the capital had the most opposition.

There are nearly [-] opposition ministers headed by Fan Jingwen and Ni Yuanlu. They keep saying that they are loyal ministers and don't care about the two masters. Even if the emperor is in trouble, they will support the prince to ascend the throne.

Cheng Dashi has no way to argue with these Qingliu, because he knows that these people are not good at governing the country and the world, but they are especially good at verbal battles, citing scriptures one after another, and can argue with you all day without rest, and they can exhaust you to death.

These people also claim that loyal ministers are not afraid of death, and they are all meat from a hob. Threats and temptations are ineffective for them. They even hope to be killed and leave their names in history.

They seem to be loyal ministers, but they are actually more terrifying than treacherous ministers. They don't know how to adapt. If they insist on a prince who has no military power and financial power to succeed the emperor, wouldn't this send the prince on a road of no return?Nanwang Renhou will not do such an unjust act, but who can guarantee that the arrogant soldiers of "Nanming" will not kill first and then play?
The person who tied the bell had to be untied, and Zhang Zhiji and Cao Huachun had to go directly to the prince for an interview. The three of them explained the situation in the world to the prince thoroughly.

Historically, Zhu Cihong was not a strong character, nor was he a responsible person. He and his two brothers were very well-behaved after being captured by intruders.

The prince who had no ambitions said on the spot that he had no intention of being the emperor when he heard about the completion of a major event, and that he just wanted to be a wealthy and idle person.Zhang Zhiji immediately stated that he would use his head to guarantee that His Royal Highness would get the title if he gave up the throne, and that the prince would be prosperous for a lifetime.

The following story was a bit ridiculous. Zhu Cihong summoned Fan Jingwen, Ni Yuanlu and other ministers who were trying to get him to the throne, and expressed his dissatisfaction with their behavior of driving ducks to the shelves. took his own life.

It was really hard to argue, Fan Jingwen, Ni Yuanlu and other ministers kowtowed to the ground, telling the prince that they were loyal with iron bones, and they did so for the successors of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cilang didn't know whether to laugh or cry and asked back: "My lords, now that the capital of the Ming Dynasty has been captured by intruders, who of you can retake the capital for the Ming Dynasty? The internal army and the soldiers of the Beijing camp who have been guarding you have not seen their pay for half a year. Can you find a way to get it back?" Some military pay?"

As soon as this remark came out, the officials who were still fighting like chickens just now were dumbfounded. It was okay for them to shout slogans, but it was difficult for them to take action.

Ni Yuanlu said: "His Royal Highness, how can the ancestral foundation be handed over to others? Even if Daming is in bad luck and can't regain the capital, and there is no money to pay the soldiers, but I can protect the crown prince to accompany the capital Nanjing to make a comeback."

At this time, a voice sounded: "Master Ni, don't be too naive. Nanjing Wei Guogong, guarding eunuchs, six ministers, etc. have already expressed their position to invite Nan Wang to sit in the world. The 10,000+ army under Admiral Cao Jiang's command is actually 'Nan Ming' paying the salary. They have all returned to His Highness Nanwang."

The person who spoke was Xu Wenjue, who was also the son of the Duke of Wei. He made it clear that all the troops in Nanjing had already defected to "Nanming", which further strengthened Zhu Cihong's determination not to fight for the throne.

Zhu Cihong said: "Listen, how powerful the King Nan is. This king obeys God's will to support the King Nan as the emperor for the sake of the people in the world. Besides, the King Nan is not considered an outsider. After all, he still has the status of the son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty."

Fan Jingwen retorted: "Your Highness's words are wrong, how can the Great Ming Dynasty be handed over to a foreign surname, the Southern King was originally a minister of the Great Ming Dynasty, and now he is the son-in-law of the Great Ming Dynasty, Your Highness can borrow troops, money and food from the Southern King to take back the capital and revive the country. "

It’s true that standing up and talking without pain in the back, Cheng Dashi, Xu Wenjue, Cao Huachun, etc. all looked at the eloquent Fan Jingwen as if they were fools, and thought: "Is this kid stupid when he reads books?"

Even Zhu Cihong felt that the little old man was stupid and naive, and knew that if he relied on such a simple, almost childish person to fight for the country, he would surely die very quickly.

Zhu Cihong decided not to quarrel with these Qingliu officials, he said: "You don't need to say much, this king has made up his mind, and it is also beneficial to the clan to persuade the king of Nan to ascend the throne and call it the emperor's benefit to the country and the people."

Fan Jingwen, Ni Yuanlu and the others wanted to persuade them again, but Zhu Cihong didn't want to say a word to these rotten scholars at all, so he just walked away.

Later, when the prince invited the civil servants and generals to meet, no one notified the opposition headed by Ni Yuanlu and Fan Jingwen. The sad result came out. The civil servants and military generals who betrayed Zhu Ming's royal family and invited the Southern King to become Zhu Cihong's guests became Zhu Cihong's guests. Loyal ministers were marginalized.

The Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty clarified his position and personally contacted the civil officials and military generals who persuaded him to advance. Immediately, many civil and military officers who supported and persuaded him were added, and the number of opponents became less and less.

Huangjiawan Island is the base area that Huang Sheng has been operating for 20 years. The residents here are not only highly educated, but also respect Huang Sheng like a god. The content of the street talks is that the ministers of the Ming Dynasty are trying to persuade the King of Nan to become the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Hearing such good news Everyone from officials to ordinary residents was very excited about the news.

Later, some good people found out that more than a dozen ministers of the Ming Dynasty resolutely opposed the Southern King becoming the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. The military and civilian officials of the entire Huangjiawan Island were angry. This is a civilized place with sound laws and regulations, and no one does illegal things. , but is it not possible to use cold violence?

It didn't take long for Ni Yuanlu, Fan Jingwen and other ministers' servants to feel that their master was too self-sufficient. Some people were already considering whether to make a new choice. They had martial arts and thought they could fight well. Being selected as a brave man can also make a bright future.

Why do these servants have these thoughts?Because of being severely injured by cold violence.

People in Huangjiawan Island didn't want to see them, and they all glared at them, and finally it became so that Ni Yuanlu, Fan Jingwen and other ministers' servants couldn't buy anything with silver coins, and the restaurant simply refused to let them in.

They couldn't reason with others, even an ordinary wonton seller asked them why they opposed Nanwang being emperor, and then they talked like a few treasures about how good Nanwang was, and how the people lived under Nanwang's rule. how……
