Chapter 3 I am Chongzhen!

Chapter 3 I am Chongzhen!

Lin Fan was speechless. These two people were not finished yet. He said: "You two are really annoying. Even if this thing is priceless, it is still a dead thing. If you don't exchange it for silver, it will be nothing!"

"I see that you two are also from wealthy families. I would like to remind you that in a while, the city of Beijing is likely to be captured. If you don't leave now, you must be mentally prepared to have your family property robbed."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Wang Chengen immediately scolded.

But Chongzhen stretched out his hand and stopped Wang Chengen. A flash of light flashed in his eyes. He had wanted to ask about this just now, but he didn't want to expose that he could hear his voice, so he kept refraining from asking.

Now that he has taken the initiative to say this, he can ask: "Huh?"

How do you know that the city of Beijing will be breached in a few months?"

Lin Fan looked at Chongzhen warily. He had been agitated just now, forgetting that this was the Ming Dynasty and the capital. He was talking nonsense and would be beheaded if the people in the court found out!

Even if he had Lu Bu's fighting power, he could easily kill him, but he couldn't take away the wealth.

"You have to listen to me. I never said that. If you two don't want to buy anything, get out of here!"

Lin Fan scolded.

But I was thinking in my heart: "Haha, you asked me how I knew that Chongzhen, a fool, was so self-willed that he thought he had killed Emperor Tianqi with a little trick and was sitting on the throne, so he looked very powerful.

He tortured Wei Zhongxian to death as soon as he came on stage!"

"This is the ultimate stupidity. Although Wei Zhongxian is vicious and monopolizes the government, he is just a eunuch. How can he still be the emperor?"

"You damn thing, if you want to manage a dynasty well, you do need civil servants, but if you want to keep a dynasty, you need people with real abilities. If Wei Zhongxian is dead, you damn bastards will also take care of the eunuchs!

"

"In the past seventeen years, there have been more than seventy changes in the cabinet's chief ministers. Yuan Chonghuan, a capable and loyal general who served the country, was directly killed because of the remonstrance of the corrupt scholars from the Donglin Party!"

"Now, there is no one loyal to him in the entire Ming Dynasty!"

"In the past, when Wei Zhongxian was here, the people who complained in the Ming Dynasty were all ministers, but the soldiers were fully paid. After Wei Zhongxian died, the officials stopped complaining, but the people complained again and again. The soldiers at the border

Not to mention military pay, we don’t even have enough food to eat!”

"Every day you shout to temporarily burden our people for a year, but you still have to have a head. Year after year, the people have neither enough to eat nor clothing to keep warm, and those rotten people from the Donglin Party are making a lot of money one by one.

!”

"Don't even think about it. When Wei Zhongxian was here, there was only one small civil uprising in the Ming Dynasty. But if you think about it in the past few years, it's not called a civil uprising anymore, it's called a rebellion!"

"Wei Zhongxian collects taxes from merchants, and you collect taxes from common people. Emperor Taizu started his career as a beggar and loved the people as his own son. Chongzhen would be better off. But if you do the opposite, it will be difficult for the Ming Dynasty to survive!"

"Li Zicheng is indeed from a humble background, and his men are all farmers. It is true that he cannot compare with well-trained soldiers, but he has a large family, millions of people. The current garrison strength in Beijing is 20,000

?"

"Even if there are 20,000 people, do these 20,000 people dare to fight against a million people?

In this situation, even a fool, let alone Li Zicheng, could break in."

well!

Thinking of this, Lin Fan sighed, while Emperor Chongzhen stood aside, his whole body stiff.

this……

This boy is definitely not as simple as a prodigal. He sees the world's major events so thoroughly. If he had heard these words earlier, he wouldn't be like this!

After getting rid of Wei Zhongxian, he also eradicated all the eunuchs. Then, he realized that something was wrong. No matter what reforms he made, the imperial treasury could never become rich.

The soldiers guarding the border don't have enough to eat, and now, the ministers don't even come to court. This shows that these ministers do not have their family, country, and world in their hearts, as they said, but only their own selfish interests.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen looked at Lin Fan. If this kid could see this, could he have a solution to his current predicament?

Thinking of this, Chongzhen decided to reveal his identity.

"Do you know who I am?"

Chongzhen said in a deep voice.

Lin Fan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Whoever you love, don't get in the way of me selling things!"

"How presumptuous! This is your Majesty, you! You are too courageous to kneel down!"

Wang Chengen said in a high-pitched voice.

He had served Chongzhen for many years and knew Chongzhen's temper best. By saying this now, he wanted to confess his identity to Lin Fan.

kindness?

Chongzhen?

Lin Fan looked at Wang Chengen who was standing aside. Not to mention, this guy really looked like a eunuch. He wouldn't be so bad, would he? He had offended the emperor just after time travel?

Even if the emperor died in another three months, he was still the emperor now and could still order his arrest!

"Are you Emperor Chongzhen?"

Lin Fan asked.

"It's me."

Chongzhen said in a deep voice.

"Ahem! I, the little man Lin Fan, would like to pay my respects to Your Majesty. I have offended you a lot just now. I hope Your Majesty will not blame you!"

"You servants, why are you still standing there? This is His Majesty the Emperor, why don't you kneel down! Do you want to lose your head?"

Lin Fan said hurriedly.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

The servants all knelt down and said.

"Damn it! This idiot Chongzhen comes out to hang out when he has nothing to do. Isn't this going to ruin my good deeds..."

"If I offend him, I won't be able to take away my wealth. However, my current strength is comparable to that of Lu Bu. No one in this capital can kill me."

"In this case, if this boy Chongzhen dares to punish himself, he might as well kill him without stopping and then defect to Li Zicheng. Li Zicheng can't achieve anything big anyway. Regardless of his arrogance now, he will definitely play tricks after a while.

After all, he can easily conquer all of his old subordinates, and with his own strength, it will not be difficult to achieve something successful."

Lin Fan muttered in his heart.

Several black lines flashed across Chongzhen's forehead. How much opinion did his son have of him? He always called himself "Si Sha".

Moreover, this kid actually dared to think of killing himself, but was what he said true? Did he really have the strength of Lu Bu, the God of War?

seriously!

Is it a lie that this kid spends all his time living and drinking?

In fact, are you trying to deceive others and secretly accumulate strength?

Or does he have some advice from an expert?

Chongzhen glanced at the kneeling servants around him. Wang Chengen immediately understood what Chongzhen meant and said in a high-pitched voice: "You all should step aside. His Majesty wants to speak to your young master alone!"

"yes!"

The servants hurriedly retreated into the Lin Mansion, leaving Lin Fan alone kneeling at the gate.
