Hearing the emperor suddenly ask about Shi Dayong who had rebelled for no reason, Xiong Mingyu was startled. This matter was a bit tricky, involved too many parties, and he had to answer solemnly, otherwise it would not be worth it for him to be implicated.
.
"Your Majesty, regarding the Jinzhou Army's conspiracy, Lin Jiantai, the commander of the Beijing camp, has reported it, and the military supervisor Gao Qiqian has also reported it. Deng Si, Wang Hong, Jin Guochen, Zu Dabi, Wu Sangui and other generals have also reported
The report proves that it is indeed a rebellion. However, in the past ten months, the whereabouts of Shi's tribe have been unknown. I have sent a message to Beizhili and Shandong, asking them to investigate in detail."
"So, until now, no one knows the whereabouts of Shi Dayong?"
After hearing Xiong Mingyu's answer, Chongzhen felt unhappy. He knew all these things and knew them in more detail than they did. However, Shi Dayong, whom he personally summoned on the platform and praised as the "Fat Cavalry General", suddenly rebelled and surrendered.
He couldn't believe it. He always felt that there was something inside this, but he just knew it.[
Because of this incident, Wang Chengen was ordered to be beaten by himself, and he is not allowed to serve in front of the imperial court to this day. Chongzhen wanted to investigate thoroughly, but because of the high level of the matter, he kept hiding. If there was really another truth, Chongzhen would not be able to lose his face.
. He made the decision to use internal ministers as supervisors over the foreign dynasties. If something happened to Gao Qiqian, he, the emperor, would probably have to give in to the foreign dynasties.
But a good general suddenly turned traitor, and the Jinzhou soldiers who fought bloody battles with the Donglu for the Ming Dynasty in Jinzhou became rebels. This made Chongzhen feel as uncomfortable as a fish thorn in his throat.
He didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it no matter what.
It would be great if Cao Huachun was here. With him here, Shi Dayong's rebellion would be able to get to the bottom of things. It's a pity that he has no place in Suzhou, and I don't know how things are going there.
As Chongzhen thought about it, his thoughts flew to Suzhou, a thousand miles away, where most of the officials in the court were based.
When Xiong Ming saw the emperor, he stopped asking and wanted to return to the class train. But before he could move, the etiquette department was in trouble. Jiang Danian went out to report: "Your Majesty, I think Shi Dayong is plotting treason or there is something hidden.
I thought we should send officers to investigate this matter thoroughly to prevent our loyal ministers and generals from being tainted by traitors!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole palace was shocked.
Huh? Chongzhen was also moved in his heart, and his eyes fell on Jiang Danian: "Why did you say this?"
The eyes of all the officials in the palace were also focused on Jiang Danian, who was involved in the Etiquette Department and was about to become an official. Qian Xiangkun, the Minister of Etiquette, complained in his heart and signaled Jiang Wannian not to get into trouble with his wink.
Jiang Wannian ignored the look in his head's hall official's eyes. Although he was only a fifth-rank official, he was a middle-ranking official in the etiquette department. His position was low but powerful. As a hall official, Qian Xiangkun could not help him. Besides, old man Qian was about to retire.
There is no need to worry.
If this time I can not only redress the grievances of loyal ministers, but also win the favor of the emperor in one fell swoop, so what if I offend some people.
Jiang Danian was quite proud of having successfully attracted the attention of the emperor and the ministers to him. He suppressed his excitement and said loudly: "I checked the archives of the Ministry of War and the cabinet report and found that Shi Dayong left the customs with Qiu Hejia last year.
, it was the garrison of Songshan. Later, Zu Dashou built Dalinghe City, and Shi's Songshan soldiers escorted the grain and grass army. In June, the Songshan army transported grain to Daling River and was surrounded by the Donglu Xianghuang Banner. Shi Dayong led his troops to fight in a bloody battle, fighting alone.
Thousands of cavalry under the banners of Donglu, Huang and Zhenglan, successfully forced Donglu to retreat and beheaded more than 200 people!
With this merit, Shi Dayong won the joint protection of Qiu Hejia and Zu Dashou. With the emperor's approval, Shi Dayong jumped on the garrison and became a participating general. Later, Shi Dayong was ordered to go to the Daling River to aid. Although there was a small setback during the process, the whole army was still able to defeat the enemy.
And retreating shows that he is not only brave but also resourceful. At the Battle of Daling River, Zhang Chun's army was wiped out, Zu Dashou paid gold, Jinzhou was empty, people were panicked, and the Donglu army was approaching the city and could be broken at night. Under the dangerous wall,
However, Shi Dayong led the remaining defeated generals to defend Jinzhou City, and also severely damaged the Donglu army, beheading thousands of people, which was the highest martial arts performance since the emperor ascended the throne!
Not only that, I also heard that Shi Dayong fought against the Donglu Xiaobei Leazig at the gate of Jinzhou City that day. He refused to retreat even to the last soldier. He even shouted "Fire at me" to the top of the city, and half of his face was also damaged.
The cannon was chipped away, leaving disabled people, so that they had to cover their faces with masks. It was rumored in Liaodong that every time the Jinzhou Army fought, Shi Dayong would shout to the soldiers in front of the battle line, "Fight for the Emperor!" He would often say to his subordinates that we are the emperor.
Soldiers of the Emperor!
After the great victory in Jinzhou, Shi Dayong escorted the prisoners to Beijing to show off his victory. He was summoned by the emperor on the platform and praised him as the fat cavalry general of our Ming Dynasty. I dare to ask the emperor, so brave and loyal, and only know the emperor, how will the ministers fight to the death for our Ming Dynasty?
Are you a traitor?"
Speaking of this, Jiang Wannian's face was full of excitement. He angrily swept away the ministers and asked them: "Do you think these loyal ministers can be traitors? If these loyal ministers are also traitors, then who are we?"
"
The ministers were stagnant and speechless for a moment. But Wen Tiren, the chief minister, glanced at Jiang Danian with approval. He Ruchong, Wu Zongda and other important officials of the Donglin Party looked at each other, with an unknown sneer on their lips, and looked at Jiang Danian.
His eyes were like looking at a clown. In the silence, He Ruchong casually glanced at the train of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Seeing that all the ministers in the palace did not dare to say a word under his questioning, Jiang Danian felt a sense of accomplishment as he had fought with the heroes. Just when he was about to ask the emperor to thoroughly investigate the truth about Shi Dayong's rebellion and bring justice to the loyal ministers, he saw the left of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Huang Ruliang, the deputy censor of the capital, suddenly walked out of the court column, pointed at him with an angry look and shouted: "Jiang Wannian, are you going to complain about this thief? It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous. Did you know that Zu Dashou was killed by this thief! In terms of injustice,
Zu Dashou is the one who is wronged; speaking of loyal ministers, Zu Dashou is the loyal minister!"
Zu Dashou was killed by Shi Dayong?[
The officials were stunned again: Where do you start talking about this? Didn't Zu Dashou surrender to the Donglu?
Things are getting more and more interesting. First, Jiang Danian complained for Shi Dayong, and now Huang Ruliang complained for Zu Dashou, but I don’t know which one is more unfair.
The officials standing at the end of the court craned their necks and opened their eyes wide, waiting to watch the show.
Chongzhen also looked at Huang Ruliang in confusion, not knowing what he was doing.
Jiang Wannian was stunned for a moment, and then he burst out laughing: "Master Huang, everyone in the world knows that the ancestor's birthday is bequeathed with gold, but you said that Shi Dayong killed the ancestor's birthday. It's really not surprising that you will die!"
"Humph, what do you know!"
Huang Ruliang glanced at Jiang Danian with disdain and walked forward, "I have here a blood letter written by Li Shi, the widow of the ancestor of Liaodong's birthday, complaining of injustice. There is another truth about the payment of gold to the ancestor of Liaodong's birthday. Please let the emperor take a look at it!"
