The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 210 Awards
"Helped Boluo escape Fujing because of collaborating with the enemy?" Zhu Linmi frowned and said angrily while listening to Shi Lin's narration.

Shi Lin clasped his hands and continued: "In order to hide his bad deeds, he actually conspired for the captives, making him threaten to release Emperor Hongguang and King Lu, so as to threaten the Empress Dowager."

The emperor was young, if King Hongguang or King Lu returned to the court, how could Taizheng's throne be stable? Empress Dowager Zeng would definitely not be able to return these two.Zhu Lin thought in her heart, this Lin Yuji really came up with a poisonous plan, but it was dedicated to Jianlu!
"The empress dowager then agreed to negotiate peace with Boluo and let him go north. Unexpectedly, the courtiers opposed the strike, and the crowd was agitated. Lin Yuji used another trick to teach the empress dowager Zeng to declare that Jianlu was destroyed by Jiang Zhengxi, and surrendered. Jiang Zhengxi led his troops Go to southern Fujian and collect the corpses of refugees as a captive head."

Zhu Linmei was almost annoyed, "So Jiang Zhengxi is not in Yanping at all? It's a good thing that the bandits were in trouble that day, otherwise our army would have rushed to the enemy's line to 'save him'. A guy who has done more than failed!"

Shi Lin continued: "Afterwards, everyone in the court decided that the captives had been defeated, and they were all overjoyed. The empress dowager was forced to allocate rations to the Yanping captives, and Lin Yuji wrote a letter from Boluo to go to Fujian in the name of receiving envoys. I want to communicate with the captives in Zhejiang, Nanzhili and other places, so that they can send troops to help the trapped Hokkien army."

The more Zhu Linmi listened, the more angry she became. She held her head in the front line and fought desperately with Jianlu. Thousands of horses may have captured Shanguan and are raging in Jiangxi.

He couldn't help remembering that he had been dealing with Jianlu for a long time in Fujing, and except for the 6000 people of Lu Chang and Song Jincheng, there were hardly any Ming troops who came to support them.That is to say, in history, Boluo encountered almost no resistance in Fujian, and occupied a province with a flick of the whip!
No wonder Chongzhen would say "all ministers are ministers of the subjugated country" before he died. He finally understood what kind of a civil servant and military general Daming was!

Even people at the peak of power like Empress Dowager Zeng and King Tang would put the safety of the Ming Dynasty at risk because of their own selfishness.One party is united in attacking dissidents, arrogating power and thinking of usurping power, and the other is secretly colluding with enemies to protect his son's throne. With such nonsense, why worry about the country's survival?
Zhu Linmi sighed in her heart, the reason why the Ming Dynasty's behemoth fell under the feet of more than ten thousand captive soldiers was because her internal organs were already rotten to the root.If you don't show the determination to cut flesh, gouge out sores, scrape bones, and cure poison, even if you have great abilities, you won't be able to hold back someone with a knife behind your back.

"My lord, Eunuch Bai and his party went up to five miles outside the camp." Suddenly, a personal soldier entered the account and reported, "It is said that he came here with an imperial edict."

"Eunuch Bai? Daqi Bai?" Although Zhu Linming's anger still persisted, the order still had to be accepted. He straightened his military uniform and ordered Shi Lin to say, "Maybe the imperial court issues a decree to reward the great victory and let all the generals Come and listen."

"Yes!"

A moment later, Zhu Linmi led the crowd out of the camp. The officers of the Dragon Guards and the Polu Camp had become accustomed to line up. Now there were several neat rows behind him, like a phalanx.

When Bai Daqi saw Wang Chen and his party from a distance, he smiled at each other, and when he came close, he immediately took out the imperial edict and unfolded it.

All the generals knelt down and listened to the order.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said: Since I succeeded to the throne, disasters in the East are pervasive, people in Fujing are in danger, and the world is shaking...

"Chen Wang is a talented general in civil and military affairs. He devoted himself to the war, led his troops of righteous and brave men, conquered the captives, and made great efforts to declare labor...

"This act of helping the chaos and reconnaissing the country is extremely meritorious! I can't think of it as commendable. I will present the meritorious service face to face, thank you for your triumphant return, and declare the world...

"With King Chen as the leader, and the meritorious commander who will soon return to Tianxing Mansion, I will hold a banquet in Fengtian Hall...

"Since the Jiangnan was initially settled, and the war has stopped for a while, I want to bring the king of Chen to the Tianxing mansion, and serve him day and night, so that the country will last forever. I respect this."

All the generals couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard the words, Fengtian Hall hosted a banquet to celebrate the great victory, and the imperial decree stated that meritorious generals should go there in person, what an honor it is!
You know, in the battle of Shanguan, almost every individual in the Ming army made a lot of military achievements, let alone the officers.Seeing this, almost everyone can go to Fengtian Temple to show their faces.

However, Zhu Linmi was a little surprised by the last few sentences of the imperial decree. According to what she said, it seemed that she wanted to stay in Tianxing Mansion by herself, and she also mentioned the word "fusheng". What is the meaning of this?
After he took the yellow brocade from Bai Daqi's hand and glanced at it, he found that it was actually Zhongzhi.

The imperial decree of the Ming Dynasty had to be drafted by the cabinet, and the imperial decree was issued directly by the emperor before the cabinet. Strictly speaking, it could only be regarded as the emperor's personal letter.

Zhu Linmi thought to herself, it seems that the imperial decree was intended by the Empress Dowager Zeng, why didn't she go through the cabinet?He then thought that, instead of sending officials from the Ministry of Rites to commend tens of thousands of military exploits, Bai Daqi, an eunuch, announced the decree, which also showed that this was the queen mother's "private letter".

"His Royal Highness Chen, my servant first congratulates you on your successive victories." After the decree was issued, Bai Daqi represented his personal identity, and his attitude became more respectful, "My servant looked for you from Yanping and chased you all the way to Shanguan. This bone is about to fall apart. Unexpectedly, you won such a big victory here again.

"In my servant's opinion, there will be a decree coming down to reward you soon."

It seems that the news of Shanguan Great Victory has not been sent to Tianxing Mansion, Zhu Linmi nodded, this decree should be to commend the Battle of Yanping.

A group of officers returned to the barracks with Zhu Linmi and Bai Daqi.

After all the generals around him dispersed a bit, Bai Daqi came to Zhu Linmi's side and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager was concealed by a traitor, she didn't investigate Donglu's tricks, and she was in danger of being succeeded by the thieves.

"Fortunately, His Royal Highness has an extraordinary strategy, and just now he defeated the powerful enemy and won the victory of Fujing. But now the rebellious officials are subduing the law, and the Jiajian captives are defeated. If the court discusses the feigned surrender of the captives again, will it be quite detrimental to our great victory? , the Empress Dowager knows that His Highness is loyal to the country, and this matter must be done by you..."

Zhu Linmi narrowed her eyes slightly, and only then did she understand why the Empress Dowager Zeng sent someone to present the imperial edict in a hurry.This time, she hypothesized that Jianlu "begged to surrender" and gave the enemy food and grass. Even Jiang Zhengxi's "Great Victory" was nothing. crisis.

Right now, Empress Dowager Zeng obviously wanted to take advantage of his great victory to suppress dissatisfied speeches in the court, so she issued an order to show her favor, and even asked him to enter Tianxing Mansion as a concubine.

However, this is more in line with Zhu Linming's own plan. Helping the Queen Mother overcome this hurdle will firstly help stabilize the central imperial power, and secondly, the Queen Mother Zeng will definitely pay back. Policies need the support of strong powers to be implemented.

And returning to the power center of Tianxing Mansion, he can more easily deal with those decadent civil and military officials who are collaborating with the enemy and idling in the war.

Thinking of this, he turned his head and smiled at Bai Daqi: "I have arranged the affairs in the camp even if I return to Tianxing Mansion. I also asked Bai Gonggong to play the Empress Dowager, Lin Yuji will be executed in the near future, all things are done by him alone. "

Bai Daqi nodded happily, killing Lin Yuji means that there is no proof of death, and all the bad things will be blamed on him.

He then cupped his hands and said: "This servant is waiting for His Highness in Tianxing Mansion."
