Chapter 150 Suffering from the vassal
"I have a request!"
Li Zicheng, who was in a state of confusion, looked up at Emperor Chongzhen and said loudly: "I..."
"You are not qualified to make any requests to me."
Emperor Chongzhen looked arrogant and looked down at Li Zicheng, interrupting, "I know, you want to take your nephew away, but this is impossible.
If you really guess correctly, Li Guo, who was captured, should be your room, the only incense.
If you ask this tiger to be put in Liaodong, you will always have protons.
If you, a guy, arrives in Liaodong and leads his troops to surrender to Jianlu, then I... will order someone to castrate Li Guo."
"you!!"
Li Zicheng, who was bound, was angry when he heard this, and a sense of nameless anger arose. He wanted to break free in anger, but was pulled by the eunuch in the West Factory gritted his teeth.
"I like this kind of energy very much."
Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly, walked forward slowly, patted Li Zicheng's face, and said indifferently: "I hope that your strength can be used on Jianlu.
Even if you are in Liaodong, you can really make trouble and want to re-create the Ming Dynasty's rebellion and make my rebellion, I will not be angry.
But if you surrender to Jianlu, seek wealth and honor in a humble manner, and kneel down to Jianlu as a slave, then I will do what I say."
After coming to this troubled times for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen understood the importance of this era in the inheritance of incense.
Li Zicheng is a natural bandit with a very complicated temperament. If he wants Li Zicheng to do what he wants, he will anger him and suppress him.
After tasting the sweetness of rebellion, how could a hero like Li Zicheng fall under the control of others?
Compared with Li Zicheng leading his troops to serve Jianlu, Emperor Chongzhen would rather see in his heart that Li Zicheng could rise in Liaodong, so that he could slow down the expansion momentum of Jianlu.
Even in the end, Li Zicheng's rebellion in Liaodong was acceptable.
At least when Li Zicheng led his troops to rise, he also helped the Ming Dynasty to steal a lot of time. Moreover, the Eight Banners of Jianlu failed to unify North Korea and integrate the adjacent grassland tribes like in their previous lives.
"Parent Wang, send someone to take this tiger to the chosen imperial patio." Ignoring Li Zicheng in front of him, Emperor Chongzhen reached out and said, "Select reliable eunuchs from the Nei Shutang with my previous secret decree,
Read it word by word, and tell him the map of Liaodong.
Since we are going to the Liaodong territory and building the enemy, how can we not know ourselves or enemies? How can we win every battle?"
"Here!"
Wang Chengen immediately bowed and responded.
In order to make Li Zicheng's rebellion career flourish in Liaodong, Emperor Chongzhen fully formulated strategic deployments, and even Li Zicheng knew about the information about Jianlu, including some secret matters about Jianlu.
Don’t doubt people when employing people.
Since he chose Li Zicheng, Emperor Chongzhen should be more honest and arrange the rebellion route with thoughtful arrangements for the talents he chose.
Looking at Li Zicheng who was leaving, Emperor Chongzhen, who was in a good mood, said to Han Zanzhou: "Where are the good generals brought back with the team?"
"Go back to the emperor." Han Zanzhou hurriedly bowed and said, "Everyone is at the Dongjishi Factory, I am thinking..."
"Li Zicheng's nephew sent someone to the Xishan Musket Camp, and was asked to be trained by Huang Degong." Emperor Chongzhen extended his hand and said, "The others were sent to the Shenji Camp, and were asked to be trained by Cao Wenzhao."
"Here!"
Han Zanzhou immediately responded.
Loyalty is too extravagant. Emperor Chongzhen would not summon Sun Kewang and other people as soon as he came up, and first sent him to the tiger general whom he relied on, and then talk about it.
A good general who can rise among the bandits.
It is not necessarily possible to rise among the new army that Emperor Chongzhen wanted to create.
As for whether it can rise and whether it can make its mark, it depends on Sun Kewang and others themselves.
However, being able to cut off Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong and others, the core group of military generals they relied on in the future, in a sense, weakened the foundation of the bandit forces.
"The emperor, I have something else to do."
Han Zan Zhou was hesitant between his eyebrows, looked up slightly, and looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said, "General Zhou submitted a secret memorial involving the Qin vassals in Shaanxi and the Jin vassals in Shanxi."
“Show it.”
Emperor Chongzhen said coldly.
It was a good thing, Zhou Yuji, who led his troops outside, would not submit secret memorials involving the vassal of the Ming Dynasty for no reason.
And Han Zanzhou's expression made Emperor Chongzhen know that things must be not simple.
Han Zanzhou's hands trembled slightly, holding the secret memo taken out of his arms, and handed it respectfully. Emperor Chongzhen snatched it and then began to look at it.
"My minister Zhou is Ji..."
The contents of the secret memorial in his hand were read word by word by word by word by Emperor Chongzhen, but the anger on his face gradually increased, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Emperor Chongzhen said coldly: "Okay, I am really worthy of being the vassal of the Ming Dynasty. I was crazy about money and dared to collude with the eight major thieves who secretly colluded with Jianlu. I really didn't expect it.
At the beginning, I was suspicious that Fan Yongdou, the treacherous traitors, was just civilian merchants in Jin. Even though they were brave enough to secretly contact Jianlu, how did so many corrupt officials and even generals leading troops contact him?
On.
It turns out that the root department is here!
Han Zanzhou immediately called the ministers of the cabinet and the Military Affairs Department to come to this Qianqing Palace!!"
"I will receive the order!"
Han Zanzhou suppressed his fear and immediately bowed and responded.
For a long time, Emperor Chongzhen had a doubt in his heart, how did the lonely merchants like Fan Yongdou rise step by step, how did they contact Jianlu, and even in Shanxi?
Such a network of interests has been built in the Fuzhen area.
Under the national policy of Ming Dynasty's emphasis on agriculture and suppressing commerce, the mainstream attitude towards merchants was mostly despised and regarded as lambs to be slaughtered.
Of course, the situation may be different for salt merchants, Hui merchants and other groups in Jiangnan.
However, although there are many wealthy groups in Jin, the Jin merchants have not had a very high social status.
"It's so bad, it's so bad."
Emperor Chongzhen held the memorial tightly and said with a cold light: "If you don't get rid of you this time, then the Emperor of Ming Dynasty should stop sitting there."
What has always troubled the Ming Dynasty's finances include the Zonglu of the vassal groups and the lower-level royal family, which is a considerable amount.
However, Emperor Chongzhen also knew that the lower-level royal family of the Ming Dynasty lived a very poor life that day, even worse than ordinary people.
The root cause is that their lordship was joined by the vassal groups in various places, namely the princes, princes, and local officials, who joined forces with each other to be greedy for the majority.
There has been no suitable opportunity before, so I took action to rectify the vassal states and seized the power of the Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Revenue and other departments, which held Zonglu.
This time, the secret memorial presented by Zhou Yuji gave Emperor Chongzhen a chance. If you don’t make good use of this, you would be sorry for the situations found by Zhou Yuji.
