In fact, the imperial court has no good face for the generals in western Liaoning. They are the trendsetters of the Ming army, and they are also the places where the imperial court spends the most money. They hate the Liu family and fear that the Liu family will do all kinds of things harmful to the imperial court, but the Liu family has another advantage, at least they don't ask the imperial court for food, The general gate in western Liaoning was the biggest burden of the Ming Dynasty.
But the imperial court dared to suppress the Liu family, but did not dare to suppress the generals in western Liaoning. Why? This is because as soon as Liaoxi put the line of defense on their hands, JianNu immediately went straight to the gate of the capital. The imperial court can't carry it, so they can listen to these people.
Xiong Tingbi, Wang Zaijin and other border officials believe that Ningjin can not be guarded, and Liao people can not be used. Liao people refer to the generals in western Liaoning. Liao people are good at walking, and their retreat turns into their disease, which is famous all over the world.
Moreover, the generals of the generals in western Liaoning also understand their own value and status. You should know that when they were worthless in the past, the imperial court directly deducted their military pay or suppressed them, but now when the imperial court asks them and wants to use them, they don't hesitate to pay military pay, Because every Minister of the imperial court knew that the Ningjin defense line was the place of life and death. If there was a slight difference, there would be a tragedy such as the second self change. Therefore, they did not dare to default on their food, and how much they had to pay, so as to ensure that they worked hard for the imperial court.
Of course, the court can be so happy, which is also related to the fact that the generals in western Liaoning are very good at being human. After they get Xiangyin, they all bribe the senior officials in the court, which has formed an interest system, that is, everyone makes money together and makes the Ming Dynasty poor.
At this point, I don't know whether emperor Chongzhen knew it or pretended to be deaf and dumb. Anyway, Liaozhen has become a burden to bring down the finance of Daming. Because of this, they don't want to give the silver reward to southern Liaoning. They are afraid that once the reward goes on, Southern Liaoning will also become a burden of Daming.
There is one thing in southern Liaoning that can't compare with Ningjin direction, that is, it is on the other side of the sea. Even if it is captured, it will not pose a threat to the capital. The imperial court is not afraid of Liu bu. They don't want to do anything. However, they dare not say that they don't reward Liu Jiajun and have nothing. They ordered Denglai town to supply all his taxes to the southern Liaoning army, In other words, if you are short of food and sound, just ask your father, not me. In the future, Denglai town does not need to pay taxes to the imperial court. To put it bluntly, they implemented a policy more than ten years ago, that is, they hope to use Denglai town to support Liao town.
However, Liu Bu is not a fool. He is also the best person in the world who can use propaganda war. He can't get any benefits in southern Liaoning. Most of them let western Liaoning take the gate. He sent artificial rumors everywhere to list the benefit system between Ningjin defense line and Western Liaoning general gate and the imperial court one by one, so that people all over the world know the collusion of these corrupt officials and corrupt generals, So that everyone can see their faces clearly and make their ugly acts public.
In fact, Liu Bu's actions can't shake this huge interest system, because they have become an inherent interest system. Many people take money from it. I believe even the cabinet and the Ministry of war will get a lot of profits and shares from Liao Xiang, so everyone cares and doesn't announce it. Liu Bu poked out this piece to let the people all over the world know, Let the world talk, but also can not shake their status. They just confessed their ugly acts, but let them know that it is impossible for you to be a bitch and set up a chastity archway. Liu Bu just demolished their chastity archway.
Moreover, Liu bu also has another advantage. The main reason is that he makes Liaoxi gate share the fire for them. You know, the imperial court always thought about the Liu family in the past. Now they should think about it. There is another one to fight, that is, Liaoxi generals. These people are equally damn. The same people are the people hated by the emperor, which should be more hated than the Liu family, At least the Liu family, while developing their own forces and minions, also contributed to the imperial court, but did not ask for money and food from the imperial court. The general in western Liaoning was a big Mac, but it swallowed up the main military pay of the imperial court. I believe the emperor would not put all his mind on calculating the Liu family after he saw this clearly.
Liu butan sent his cousin Liu Yu (general army level) to the capital, let him go in and out between the Fengyue place and the market, and wantonly publicized the collusion between the Ningjin defense line and all aspects, so that the people and Qingyi knew these things.
To put it bluntly, this is a kind of propaganda war, which draws others into the water and lets others block the sword and share the firepower for themselves. If they did this kind of activity in the past, they had to avoid the ubiquitous royal guards and East Hall. However, today's emperor doesn't need the two power departments of royal guards and East Hall at all. They can't do anything except collecting protection fees, They won't care about them at all, so they are unscrupulous.
Liu Bu made the imperial court and the emperor very embarrassed. In fact, they all understood the collusion between the Ningjin defense line and the imperial court. They brought great trouble to the imperial court, but they had no way, because the imperial court was kidnapped by the Ningjin defense line and bound them to move forward. If they shot here, JianNu's soldiers would directly attack the Great Wall, It's time to attack the north gate of the capital directly. What should we do? That's why we can let the generals in western Liaoning go. It's good for everyone to understand these things, but they were told by someone, which made the clean flow people hear, but they were very angry and ten percent angry. They wrote letters one after another asking for a strict investigation of the traitors and moths in the court, The spearhead is directed at the two big men, Wen Ti Ren and Zhang Fengyi, the Minister of the Ministry of war.
Although the Qingliu in the court are all mouth guns and can't move them, once these people move their mouth, they will embarrass you and have no free time.
This is Liu Bu's counterattack. He always feels that the ministers in the court are thinking about the Liu family all day and want to mess with them, so he has to find something for them and poke out their scandals, so that people and people all over the world can talk about trouble for them.
The so-called protester is to criticize others on the high ground of morality.
Of course, only the people concerned can understand this kind of confrontation. Others can't see it. Don't say others can't see it, but some people can't see it. For example, Zhang Fengyi doesn't know. He has collected so much silver, which has been listed one by one and advertised. All the court ministers now say that he is old and rich, This made him very embarrassed.
Zhang Fengyi is really very rich. In recent years, he has made a lot of money as the Minister of the Ministry of war. What can he do with so much money? He first used it to buy fields and land in his hometown, and then built a big mansion. After he retired, he would enjoy it at home.
And after having so much silver, it's impossible to put it all at home for reuse after retirement? He now sent his family south to Suzhou and Yangzhou to buy more than a dozen beautiful women for his enjoyment. It can be said that Zhang Fengyi's food, clothing and enjoyment at home are definitely much better than the Chongzhen emperor in the Forbidden City.
For example, Emperor Chongzhen only ate a few dishes at a meal, that is, adding one more meat. He had to think twice for fear of increasing expenses. Zhang Fengyi could not eat less than 36 dishes per meal, and he was extremely extravagant. Every time he ate, a band composed of beautiful women played music next to him, and then he was fed by a beautiful woman.
Zhang Fengyi thinks that he manages everything every day and has a lot of things to deal with and think about. Therefore, when he eats, he thinks about things. In case he doesn't have time to eat, so when he eats, he asks beautiful women to feed him. Every time he eats, as long as his eyes point, the beautiful woman has to know which dish he wants to eat, Then he took it to his mouth with ivory chopsticks, and he did it. He stretched out his hands for clothes, opened his mouth for food, and then thought about things while eating. This is a high-level enjoyment, but these things have been spread out, to the streets and alleys, and to the point that the emperor knows, which makes the emperor angry.
The emperor Chongzhen was very angry when he heard these news. You know, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he didn't buy a new Dragon Robe for several years, and his body was patched. Zhang Fengyi was in good shape, and his life was so luxurious. As a minister of the Ministry of war, his monthly salary was only 200 Liang silver, How can so much silver be extravagant? You can enjoy such a luxurious life. You must have 30 dishes for a meal, flying in the sky, running on the ground and swimming in the water. Isn't this better than what his emperor ate? When the emperor heard this, he felt very uncomfortable. He immediately ordered Wang Chengen, the eunuch of the Department of rites, to send someone to check. Isn't wang Chengen in charge of the East Hall? Can't you let him check this little thing?
This matter makes Wang Chengen seem a little embarrassed. Why do you say so? Because he knows all this is true. Do you still need to check it? All the people in the capital know that Zhang Fengyi's ostentation is very big. Not only does he have a great ostentation, but also today's imperial court books and those big men. Isn't that the man's life like this?
Don't you enjoy the privilege of being a senior official and the hard work of being an official? Is it difficult to be a senior official and live a miserable life? Do you want to beg for food with others when you hold that golden rice bowl? Besides, even Wang Chengen made a lot of money. Even though he was a relatively weak eunuch, many people sent him ice, carbon and money. He could get a lot of money and food. The enjoyment at home was also quite good. Only the emperor was the kind of person who took a golden rice bowl but begged for food.
Wang Chengen is afraid that hair will affect the whole body. If he checks Zhang Fengyi, he is afraid that more people will come. What should he do? So after several private conversations, he reported to the emperor that it was false, but some people with intentions were deliberately discrediting it.
