Chapter 144 Yuan Qing, stay safe
Following Emperor Chongzhen's oral instructions, Zhou Yuji commanded the Yongwei camp, accompanied by Chen Jisheng, Kong Youde and other Dongjiang generals, and rushed to Qian'an. News spread like wildfire, which caused quite a sensation among the Ming army stationed in Hanerzhuang.
"Your Majesty, even if you want to summon Yuan Chonghuan, there is no need to ask Chen Jisheng and others to accompany him." Sun Chengzong looked worried and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "This matter has been spread in the Hanerzhuang camp. If this matter causes military morale
Floating, just..."
"I just summoned Yuan Chonghuan to come to Hanerzhuang to see me. How could it cause the morale of the army to fluctuate?"
Emperor Chongzhen interrupted Sun Chengzong's words, looked at Wang Qia and Li Banghua who looked uneasy, tapped his fingers on the desk, and said in a calm tone: "Does the governor Yuan Chonghuan have higher prestige than me, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty? I
Why do you want your military aircraft to point forward?"
"..."
When Sun Chengzong and others heard what Emperor Chongzhen said, they all broke into cold sweat and became nervous. They couldn't answer what the emperor said.
Is it possible to say that Yuan Chonghuan is more powerful than today?
After Yuan Chonghuan was appointed as the governor and took full charge of the affairs of Ping Liao, he used the banner of Ping Liao to promote many generals and officials who listened to him, and squeezed out people like Man Gui and Hou Shilu who had their own wishes.
general.
In the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, Yuan Chonghuan was not trying to pacify Liao for the imperial court. He was clearly using Ping Liao to create a political interest group with him as the core.
Facts have proved that this is what Yuan Chonghuan did under various events that happened in the past. He wanted to portray himself as a hero who saved the Ming Dynasty.
As for what Sun Chengzong and others were worried about, Emperor Chongzhen could also guess that there were still many generals who had a close relationship with Yuan Chonghuan in the Hanerzhuang area.
For example, Zhao Shujiao, the chief military officer of Shanhaiguan, Zu Dashou, the chief military officer of Liaodong, He Kegang...
"This time we fought against the invading Jianlu, and all the generals and officials who have made meritorious deeds will be rewarded by the imperial court. I am keeping this in mind and watching."
Emperor Chongzhen tapped the desk and said with a stern expression: "Even if someone is not fighting under my command, as long as he does something like King Qin came to the rescue, it will be a meritorious service.
But for the same reason, as long as you do something wrong, you will be punished accordingly. This is eternal and has been like this in all dynasties.
He, Yuan Chonghuan, was so trusted by me before. For this matter of Ping Liao, he gave me whatever he asked and did whatever he wanted to do. But what about him?
This time Jianlu invaded my Ming Dynasty, he must give me an explanation!
Yuan Chonghuan needs to give an explanation to the souls of those who were massacred by Jianlu in Zunhua and Santunying, as well as the group of athletes who died on the battlefield during the battle with Jianlu.
Don't think that you can blackmail the imperial court and me by bragging about your achievements in defeating the Liao Dynasty for the imperial court and spreading your reputation, or doing shady things behind my back in private.
As long as he, Yuan Chonghuan, is still a minister of the Ming Dynasty and I have issued an oral order to summon him, then he, Yuan Chonghuan, must come. Of course, if he does not feel that he is a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he does not have to come. I will not force him.
Write these words down intact, and in the name of military aircraft, send them to every commander and general, and tell them to take a good look at them."
The emperor's will to defeat Yuan is very firm!
After saying these words, Yuan Chonghuan was isolated from everyone. If anyone dared to do anything strange, it would be because there was something wrong in their hearts.
Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia, and Li Banghua stood with different expressions, secretly saying in their hearts that this time Yuan Chonghuan would be severely punished by the emperor.
"Why are you still standing here? Do you want to watch Hanerzhuang cause a mutiny?"
"I don't dare!"
Looking at Sun Chengzong and others who were leaving in a hurry, and Emperor Chongzhen sitting there, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Yuan Chonghuan, a minister of the Ming Dynasty, had so many constraints if he wanted to deal with him.
On the other side of Beijing, if this was done in Shenjing, I don’t know what kind of traps would be created.
I have to say that Yuandudu’s ability to win over people’s hearts is indeed strong.
As a result, Sun Chengzong, Wang Qia, and Li Banghua, who had high political status, all came to advise him after knowing what he was going to do.
If a politician like Yuan Chonghuan, who is headstrong and nepotistic, is asked to continue to guard Liaodong and be responsible for the affairs of the imperial court and Liao Dynasty, then the Ming Dynasty will definitely be completely brought down by his behavior.
…
As Emperor Chongzhen's words were transcribed by military aircraft, and distributed to every commanding general, all the ministries affected by this calmed down.
From the time Zhou Yuji and the others left to the time Zhou Yuji came back, in just two days, the Hanerzhuang area fell into a strange calm.
During this period, Emperor Chongzhen did not summon anyone, but discussed some of the subsequent deployment in Liaodong with the group of people in front of the military aircraft department.
"...I still say what I said, the Liao salary will be reduced, and the money and food allocated by the court will also be reduced. Although Ping Liao is important, we cannot ignore the situation that the Ming Dynasty is in. If..."
"Your Majesty, Yuan Chonghuan came to Han'erzhuang Camp under the imperial edict, but..."
Just when Emperor Chongzhen was emphasizing his opinions on the deployment of Liaodong to Sun Chengzong and others, Wang Chengen looked slightly panicked, walked into the Chinese army commander's tent, and bowed his hands.
"..."
Sun Chengzong and others, who were in complicated moods, were stunned for a moment after hearing what Wang Chengen said, and then they looked at Emperor Chongzhen who was standing with his arms akimbo.
"Just what?"
Emperor Chongzhen narrowed his eyes and said, "Does he still want to ask me to come out of the camp to meet him? Don't tell me that Yuan Chonghuan made a scene of asking for forgiveness?"
"yes…"
Wang Chengen raised his head slightly, with a hint of panic between his brows, and responded in a very low voice.
"Ha ha……"
Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and laughed, looked at Sun Chengzong and others with different expressions, and said: "It's really interesting. This is very in line with Yuan Chonghuan's style. In this way, you are forcing me to pinch my nose and let him go.
Since he likes to do this, then he can pass on my oral instructions and order all the ministries and generals to assemble and follow me to welcome our heroes of the Ming Dynasty!!!"
With that said, Emperor Chongzhen flicked his robe sleeves and walked quickly outside the commander's tent. Sun Chengzong and others secretly yelled, and they all cursed Yuan Chonghuan in their hearts!
When you make such a fuss, you are not asking for forgiveness. You are clearly trying to prevent the emperor from coming to power!
Especially for Wang Qia and Li Banghua, they even cursed Yuan Chonghuan for being stupid in their hearts. They still have the secret letter written by Huang Taiji to Emperor Chongzhen.
Let's not say whether the content in this letter is true or false, but during the emperor's personal expedition, Yuan Chonghuan's various behaviors were really inexplicable.
"What on earth is going on? Yuan Chonghuan came to Han'erzhuang according to the order, knelt at the gate of the Chinese Army and held a thorn in his hand to plead guilty. What on earth did he want to do?"
"General He, why did Governor Yuan do this? The emperor asked us to accompany him out of the central army gate. I am afraid that he was angered by Governor Yuan's behavior."
"Commander Zu, what should we do next? If the emperor really wants to punish Governor Yuan, then we..."
"Haha, this Yuan Chonghuan is really smart. He dares to force His Majesty in this way. I really admire him. He is seeking death if he follows Your Majesty in this way."
The generals of the Han Dynasty who came out together followed Emperor Chongzhen's oral instructions and passed on the commanding officers of the various ministries in Hanerzhuang. After conveying the oral instructions, they included Man Gui, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Zushou, He Kegang, Zu Dashou, Zhao Lejiao, Zhang Keda, and Wang Hong.
These commanders and generals gathered with Emperor Chongzhen following oral orders.
When they arrived in front of the holy cavalry, they all waited patiently and saluted with the crowd. Emperor Chongzhen, who was wearing armor and carrying a sword, saw all the generals arriving and rode towards the gate of the central army without saying a word.
Go everywhere.
Dozens of generals who came with the order followed Sun Chengzong and other military officers to point out the ministers, and then walked forward with different expressions. No one knew what Emperor Chongzhen would do next.
"Da da."
"Hey yo yo..."
Emperor Chongzhen, who was riding forward, looked at the gate of the Chinese army in front of him, and vaguely saw a person kneeling on the ground, shirtless, carrying a few wooden sticks on his back, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Meet Your Majesty!!"
Zhou Yuji, Chen Jisheng, Kong Youde and other generals, who were standing at the camp gate with swords in hand, saw Emperor Chongzhen approaching on horseback, and they all knelt on one knee and saluted.
"..."
Yuan Chonghuan, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled slightly when he heard the sound, and a few big beads of sweat fell on his forehead. Although the temperature was very low, Yuan Chonghuan, who was feeling uneasy in his heart, only felt the burning on his back.
Breaking into a cold sweat.
