Li Zhi looked at the reluctance of the civil servants and sneered.
At this time, Li Zhi was quelling the Tartars for the Ming Dynasty, and these civil servants were not even willing to come out to greet him.
In fact, when these civil servants claim credit and sell their reputation, they are first-class experts. These shameless civil servants may have to share some of the credit for quelling the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
In the history before Li Zhi's time travel, since Zhou Yanru was established in the 14th year of Chongzhen, the Donglin Party has grown bigger and bigger, completely monopolizing the court, and it can be said that "all the people are upright and the court". However, these Donglin Party members did not
Turning the tide. In the original history, in just three years from the 14th year of Chongzhen to the 17th year of Chongzhen, the situation of the Ming Dynasty deteriorated sharply, and the Ming Dynasty fell in just three years. In the end, the emperor Zhu Youjian and his minister Wang Chengen were hanged in the coal mine
On the mountain, the Ming Dynasty ended.
Later generations of literati always shirk responsibility for the Donglin Party. However, in fact, in the early years of Chongzhen, when the situation in the Ming Dynasty went from good to bad, the Donglin Party monopolized the government. In the last years of Chongzhen, when the situation in the Ming Dynasty deteriorated sharply, the Donglin Party was also in power. The Ming Dynasty's
To perish, the Donglin Party has an inescapable responsibility.
In the original history, the Donglin Party naturally lost power after the fall of the Ming Dynasty. Although some Donglin Party officials who surrendered also became high-ranking officials, their power climate was much worse.
However, today's history has been changed by Li Zhi. Although the Donglin Party still controls the government, the situation of the Ming Dynasty is much better than before due to Li Zhi's southern and northern campaigns. The Manchu Qing Dynasty has been completely wiped out by Li Zhi, and Zhang Xianzhong was defeated by Li Zhi.
Zhi was killed. Although Li Zicheng made a comeback, the scale of development was not as large as before.
Because of Li Zhi's painstaking efforts, the Ming Dynasty was quite prosperous.
However, the funny thing is that some of Li Zhi's achievements will eventually be distributed to the Donglin Party, which is a sworn enemy of Li Zhi.
The Donglin Party was at the center of the imperial court and controlled key departments of the imperial court. These literati were the best at boasting about themselves, and the peaceful situation created by Li Zhi was naturally praised by these literati as the result of "all the people are upright and the court is prosperous."
The public opinion of the Donglin Party and the civil servants who depended on the Donglin Party has formed a saying in both the government and the public that it was precisely because of the Donglin Party's painstaking efforts to control and balance the stimulus that Li Zhi achieved great success in the southern and northern wars.
Therefore, although Li Zhi reported to the court twice to kill the Donglin Party bosses, killing both the first and second assistants, Donglin Party members and civil servants close to the Donglin Party in the court still controlled key departments, and they were in awe.
At this time, among the civil servants who welcomed Li Zhi under the main gate of Li, the leading ones were cabinet bachelors Wang Duo, Fan Jingwen and others, who were all Donglin Party bosses. Even if the other civil servants were not Donglin Party members, they were attached to the Donglin Party.
Lin Dang's.
Looking at the constipated expressions on the faces of these Donglin Party bosses, Li Zhi knew that these civil servants hated him deeply for making meritorious deeds.
Lu Jiude, who was leading the way, also felt that the expressions of the civil servants were wrong and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. He interrupted and said: "General, the emperor has given you permission to ride into the palace on horseback this time. You can ride all the way to the front of the Huangji Palace."
Li Zhi asked: "Are you going to the palace now to meet the saint?"
Lu Jiude laughed loudly: "The Emperor has been waiting in the Qianqing Palace for a day. Every quarter of an hour, he sends someone to ask where the general has gone. The general will not enter the palace today, so why should the Emperor be made to wait another day?"
Li Zhi smiled and said, "Then please ask Eunuch Lu to lead the way!"
Li Zhi walked forward and passed through the Chengtian Gate. More than a thousand civil and military officials followed Li Zhi and walked towards the Huangji Palace. Three thousand cavalry stopped in front of the Meridian Gate. A dozen Jinyi guards came up and opened the prison car, holding the many soldiers in the car.
Ergon escorted him out.
Under the envious eyes of the nobles and military attachés, and the resentful eyes of the civilian officials, Li Zhi took the lead in front of more than a thousand officials. Under the leadership of Lu Jiude, he passed through the Meridian Gate and entered the Forbidden City. After crossing the Neijin Water Bridge,
Li Zhi rode across the entire square in front of Huangji Palace before jumping off his horse in front of Danbi.
Emperor Zhu Youjian was already standing on the throne in front of the Huangji Palace, standing under the gorgeous Emperor's umbrella and looking at Li Zhi with a smile on his face.
Li Zhi quickly walked up to Danbi, and was about to kneel down and bow to the emperor, but he was supported by the emperor.
"My beloved, I have made an expedition to the north of three thousand miles to Alchuka. I have quelled the scourge of the country in the past thirty years. I have made great contributions through hard work. I sincerely deserve to be exempted from this great gift!"
When Li Zhi saw that the emperor would not let him kneel down, he bowed to the emperor and held his hands in his hands.
"Li Zhi has met His Majesty."
Zhu Youjian looked Li Zhi up and down, laughed, and took Li Zhi's hand into the Huangji Hall. After walking all the way to the middle of the Huangji Hall, Zhu Youjian let go of Li Zhi's hand and walked alone
Sit down in front of the throne.
The civil servants followed the emperor and Li Zhi into the Huangji Hall, ranking in the second class on the left and right.
Zhu Youjian sat on the throne, looked at Li Zhi, and said, "The Duke has lost weight."
Li Zhi cupped his hands and replied: "I have been in the military for a long time and cannot eat a lot of meat. I have indeed lost some weight!"
Zhu Youjian nodded and said: "Let me take a look at the slave chief Dorgon who is held by the Duke of Jin!"
Li Zhi cupped his hands and said: "I obey the order!"
Li Zhi turned around and looked behind him, and a eunuch shouted loudly: "Abdorgun has entered the palace!"
The eunuchs outside the palace shouted in succession: "Abdorgun enters the palace!"
After a while, Dorgon, who was wearing the imperial robe of the Qing Dynasty, was brought to the Huangji Palace. The Manchu emperor had disheveled hair, was covered in mud, and had his hands tied behind his back. He was in a very embarrassed state. The four "big Han generals" of the imperial guards were persistent in front and back.
He escorted him to the throne and pushed him to the ground, where he knelt.
Zhu Youjian looked Dorgon up and down and asked curiously: "Are you Dorgon?"
Dorgon looked at Zhu Youjian for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "I am Dorgon, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"
Hearing Dorgon's still tough words, Zhu Youjian raised his head and laughed.
Huang Degong, the commander-in-chief of the Beijing camp, stood up holding a dental plaque: "I have something to say!"
"explain!"
"Anyone who offends our strong men will be killed no matter how far away they are. Choose a general to lead an army to attack a distant place, and hold the king before him. The majesty of the Holy God is majestic, the martial arts of the Duke of Jin are brilliant, hundreds of thousands of Tatars are captured without any help, and there are many slaves and chiefs.
Ergon killed him at the slightest sign of his neck. Thirty years of humiliation were wiped away in one day. The rivers and seas in the ten thousand miles of frontier were clear. I am now strong and prosperous!"
Zhu Youjian was in a good mood, nodded and said: "Well said!"
Hearing Huang Degong's words, the nobles and generals standing on the right came out one after another and shouted in unison: "The majesty of the Holy God is majestic, the martial arts of the Duke of Jin are shining, and my Ming Dynasty is strong!"
Even the civil servants who hated Li Zhi had to go out and shout when they saw such an atmosphere: "The majesty of the Holy God is majestic, the martial arts of the Duke of Jin are shining, and my Ming Dynasty is strong!"
Zhu Youjian looked at the officials' words and Dorgon, who closed his eyes and said nothing, and his cheeks turned red with excitement. He stroked his long beard and laughed.
"Li Zhi, Duke of Jin, I am pleased with your hard work and merit. What reward do you want?"
Li Zhi looked at the emperor and said, "I have some suggestions for dividing administrative regions."
"It can be said!"
"I intend to combine Shandong and Denglai towns into one town. There will only be one governor of Shandong and one general soldier of Shandong, each in charge of civil affairs and military affairs. I intend to change the town of Liaodong and the headquarters of Nuergan into three provinces: Liaodong, Jilin, and Heilongjiang.
, each has a governor and a general soldier."
Zhu Youjian didn't even think about it, waved his sleeves and said: "That's right!"
