I'm a big dick

Chapter 27 The Wind Blows Guangning, Are You the Donglin Party?

According to the procedure, it is wrong for the emperor to bypass the cabinet and issue a decree directly; but from a legal point of view, the imperial decree is still an imperial decree and has the same effect.

As for the refusal of civil servants with "strong character", that is another matter.Slapping the emperor in the face, that's all. Zhu Youxiao said that he didn't feel pressured and didn't care.

Xiong Tingbi stood up and put away the imperial decree, feeling rejoicing in his heart, if he didn't accept the secret decree, he wouldn't be awarded the title of minister of the Ministry of War, and he wouldn't have the sword of Shangfang, maybe the ten guards in royal clothes outside the tent would rush in and arrest him!

Of course, Xiong Tingbi still had many questions in his mind.For example, why did the holy letter mention that after the failure of the reinforcement of Xiping Fort, Guangning should still have two or three days to prepare.

He was full of questions but didn't dare to ask. Zhu Youxiao knew how useless it was for Guangning to fall in history.

Sun Degong, a traitor and rebel, suddenly mutinied and defected when the two armies were fighting at Pingyang Bridge, causing the Ming army to collapse across the board, and Liu Qu and others died in the battle at Shaling.

Then, Sun Degong led the rebels back to Guangning, opened the gates of the city to stir up chaos, and the soldiers and civilians in the city panicked. Wang Huazhen was also frightened and fled in a panic.

However, after the Battle of Shaling, the Eastern Prisoners did not enter the army, but continued to besiege Xiping Fort and stayed to rest.

When Sun Degong came to repay his sincerity and invite Nurhachi to enter the city, the old slave still didn't believe there would be such an unexpected surprise.

Two days later, Sun Degong invited Nurhachi to enter the city again. The old slave was still dubious, and led the army to march slowly towards Guangning, and sent spies to check.

On the way, Nurhachi met some Jurchens and informed them of the situation in Guangning City.The old slave still couldn't believe that Guangning City would be obtained so effortlessly.

Therefore, Nurhachi sent Baylor and ministers to check it out, and after getting a definite report, he led his army into Guangning City.

In other words, if Xiong Tingbi rushed to Guangning, he would have at least two or three days to prepare.For these two or three days, the chances of keeping Guangning are a little stronger.

Pressing down the question in his heart, Xiong Tingbi cupped his hands and asked politely to the eunuch: "Dare to ask my father-in-law, if a certain army rushes to Guangning, Governor Wang refuses to accept it behind closed doors, or refuses to obey restraint, what should I do?"

The inner officer sneered, slapped his arms, and said: "The miscellaneous family still has the will of the Holy One."

As he said that, his face became stern and cold, "If Lord Wang dares to resist the order and refuses to obey it, the Jin Yiwei brothers will take action. Lord Xiong, don't worry too much."

Under this imperial decree—the Holy Majesty seems to be in a hurry.

Except for the innocuous decree to transfer people, all the decrees were carried in, bypassing the cabinet, and sending Jin Yiwei to supervise.

The cabinet has disappointed the Holy Majesty so much, it seems that it is going to have a big change.

Xiong Tingbi had some calculations in his mind, so he asked the internal officials and Jin Yiwei to rest for a while, and he immediately summoned the generals to arrange a strategy.

Not long ago, the barracks became noisy, and the knights galloped out of the camp in twos and threes, and went to the surrounding fortresses to deliver orders.

Let's not talk about Xiong Tingbi pulling out the camp overnight after receiving the secret order, and ordering the soldiers and civilians in the surrounding villages to gather in Guangning, let's talk about the current situation of Wang Huazhen in Guangning City.

The imperial envoys who delivered the decree to Guangning City were only two or three hours behind Xiong Tingbi's.But hurry up, it was still a step too late, Sun Degong had already led his army to reinforce Xiping Fort the day before.

"Lord Wang, let's send someone to chase after him now!" the edict officer said coldly to Wang Huazhen with a very unsightly expression.

Wang Huazhen hesitated for a moment, bowed to respond, and ordered people to chase after him, so that Sun Degong returned to Guangning quickly, and the generals replaced the command.

For Xiong Tingbi, he was oppressive and aggressive, but for Wang Huazhen, Zhu Youxiao was only coercive.

Because Wang Huazhen is a coward, a slippery head who adapts to the wind, so it is impossible to have the strength of character and paranoia to resist orders.

Wang Huazhen also realized that there was an edict-delivering internal official and ten royal guards, so she was more cautious.

Seeing that Wang Huazhen was quite obedient, the internal officer looked pale, and cupped his hands towards the capital and said, "Before the arrival of the miscellaneous family, the Holy Majesty personally confessed that Lord Wang should strengthen the defense of Guangning city, so as not to follow the mistakes of Shenyang and Liaoyang."

"Your Majesty is wise." Wang Huazhen also hurriedly cupped his hands, turned to Jiang Chaodong and said, "The great battle has begun, the city defense must not be slack, you should arrange it strictly and inspect it yourself."

"Yes, the general will obey." Jiang Chaodong gave a salute, turned and left.

"The Holy Majesty also said that the family members of Sun Degong, a guerrilla in the Chinese army, should take good care of them—" the inner officer pointed to the Jin Yiwei with a half-smile on his face, and said, "Let these brothers do this job."

Wang Huazhen's expression froze, looking after his family and letting Jin Yiwei do it, wouldn't that make him a prisoner?
"Lord Wang, send some soldiers to follow these brothers to the Sun Mansion!" The internal officer's voice was quite gentle, but his tone seemed to be ordering.

Wang Huazhen carefully considered the words, and asked carefully: "Dare to ask my father-in-law, what's wrong with this Sun Degong, who actually works for Jinyiwei?"

"The miscellaneous family doesn't know either." The internal official replied with a half-smile, "The miscellaneous family only follow the instructions of the Holy Master."

Word of mouth!Feeling helpless, Wang Huazhen ordered the captain of the personal army to transfer someone to go with Jin Yiwei on business.

Arranging for the imperial envoy and Jin Yiwei to rest, Wang Huazhen went back to the room, thinking hard, but to no avail.

Wang Dazhong had no idea at all that Sun Degong, whom he relied on as his confidant, was sent to instigate Li Yongfang, but he was already instigated by the Eastern Captives, and he had to go back to Guangning to arrest him and make contributions!

................
Lang Lang's voice echoed in the hall, Zhu Youxiao sat upright and listened carefully.

"...follow the public with integrity, revitalize the administration of officials, open the way of speech, eradicate the evils of the government and the opposition, and oppose the rich and powerful's corruption and abuse of the law..."

"Official chariot hub, the aspiration is not in the ruler's father; the official seals the frontier, the aspiration is not in the people's livelihood; living in the forest by the water, the aspiration is not in the world. A gentleman has nothing to do..."

yeah? !The ideology and political ideas of the Donglin Party, or beliefs, are pretty good, but why did they become a group of bastards who harmed the country?

"Your Majesty, what this passage means is that if you are an official in the imperial court, your ambition is not with the emperor. If you are an official in a border area, your ambition is not with the people's livelihood. If you live by the water and under the forest, your ambition is not with the world. A gentleman does not do this."

Seeing that the young emperor listened carefully to the lecture, Sun Chengzong was relieved, fearing that he would not understand, he explained it in a simple way.

Zhu Youxiao nodded slightly, this is so damn right.But why did Gu Xiancheng, the leader of the Donglin Party, say it, it's unscientific!

Taking advantage of the time when the palace servants served tea and Sun Chengzong paused for a while, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Master Sun, are you from the Donglin Party?"

Sun Chengzong was stunned for a moment, put down the teacup he was holding, and said with a smile: "I agree with the political views of Donglin Academy, especially the 'seeking truth and being pragmatic, practical learning and practical'. But gentlemen are not party members. , as a minister, he also respects and follows the rules of a sage."

"A gentleman is not a party, and a villain is not a party." Zhu Youxiao seemed to have realized something, and smiled with two rows of white teeth.

Sun Chengzong blinked, feeling that the words meant something.The young emperor mentioned the Donglin Party, and said that the Small People Party is not a group, could it be...
