Chapter 836

Holding the imperial edict, Xu Jianqiang read aloud: "According to the emperor's edict, Prince Chafu Zhu Changxun, the third son of the Shenzong, was in the vassal state. The Shenzong first granted the blessing King Chang Xun, with a marriage fee of up to 300000 and a residence in Luoyang of up to 280000, ten times the normal system. It was prosperous in the sea. The emperor sent tax envoys and mining envoys all over the world. The moon was worshipped, the pearls were different, the inscriptions were colorful, and the mountains were accumulated, which attracted hundreds of millions of people's admiration. At most, he gave an edict to Zhuang Tiansi Ten thousand hectares of land. Chang Xun also gave a speech, and the price was halved. Zhongzhou was short of rich land, which benefited from Shandong, Huguang and Tiantian. Guangzong and the first emperor also rewarded tens of thousands of people with more grace. The prosperity of grace has been around for 30 years. However, Fu Fan was greedy and resentful. He was evil and ambitious when he complained and scolded Guangzong and the first emperor However, if it is exposed, the royal guards will be ordered to find out the truth and copy all their property to meet the needs of Zhu Xieyuan's army and provide relief to the people. "

Zhu Xieyuan was shocked when he heard such a decree.

As an old minister of the four dynasties, he was very clear about the past events of the Wanli Dynasty and the gratitude and resentment of the imperial government in the past few decades. Naturally, he also understood the right and wrong between Zhu Changxun, the king of fortune, and the royal family. Originally, everything had settled. Since the king of fortune became a vassal in the 42nd year of Wanli, the names of monarchs and ministers had been decided for a long time, but the emperor suddenly came to such an edict, which frightened him.

Xu Jianqiang saw that Zhu Xieyuan was stunned and didn't dare to take the order. He said angrily, "why? Don't dare to take the order?"

Zhu Xieyuan said, "is the blessing king really wronged, or is someone deliberately framed?"

Xu Jianqiang said, "is all this important? Is it the innocence of the blessing king or the food of the 100000 soldiers under the commander? Is it better for the whole family to cry, or for the passers-by and hundreds of thousands of people to cry?"

Hearing what the other party said, Zhu Xieyuan had no doubt. He immediately realized that everyone was innocent and huaibi was guilty. The crime committed by Fuwang was the crime of huaibi.

Zhu Xieyuan noticed that there was no cabinet affidavit on the imperial edict. It can only be said that it was the decision of the emperor alone. It was not the imperial edict, but the central edict. As an old minister with high moral integrity and military power, he was unable to return the imperial edict and refuse to accept it.

But Zhu Xieyuan thought about what the other party said: is it better to cry alone, or is it better to cry all the way? "

Seeing Zhu Xieyuan's silence, Xu Jianqiang said, "the army of Duke Zhu's office owes sound and food, and the morale of the soldiers is low. The emperor is deeply worried. However, this is the only way to solve the problem of food for Duke Zhu. Please think twice."

Zhu Xieyuan said in a deep voice, "has the emperor ignored his face and the face of the imperial clan?"

Xu Jianqiang said: "the emperor certainly wants face, but the emperor also loves the rivers and mountains left by his ancestors. Now the whole Jiangnan has been lost. Others can change, change their master and continue to be an official. The emperor probably can't be an official?"

Xu Jianqiang said these words, but Zhu Xieyuan was very ashamed. He was a straight minister. He paid attention to the emperor's concern about the humiliation of his ministers and the death of his ministers. The emperor's words were all about this, and there was no retreat.

When Xu Jianqiang saw that the other party was silent, he said, "this matter has not been attached by the cabinet. It is not a decree. All Chinese princes and moral gentlemen! It depends on Zhu Gong's mind whether it can be done or not. There are dozens of royal guards under the lower officials, and it can't be done. As for how much money and food you can get from Fu Fan, it depends on Zhu Gong's means."

Zhu Xieyuan thought for a long time. After all, he said, "can you keep the blessing King alive? It's all the dignity of the God sect."

Zhu Xieyuan Wanli Jinshi can also be regarded as a disciple of Wanli emperor. Wanli fooled around during his reign and was criticized by his ministers. After becoming a god sect, how many people dared to criticize it?

Xu Jianqiang said: "well, from the top and bottom officials, they just find out that Fu fan is guilty and innocent. As for not letting go, this is the emperor's right. However, with the emperor's kindness, this is that the rank should be reduced by one level to show punishment."

Zhu Xieyuan couldn't make up his mind. He said, "you're doing this. Where are you going to be Shenzong, Guangzong and the first emperor?"

Zhu Xieyuan was very old. He was a scholar during the Wanli period and a veteran of the four dynasties. He was also very loyal to the emperor and the court.

Xu Jianqiang said, "Your Majesty is more concerned about the future of Daming and whether you can pass the throne to the crown prince. As for the blessing king, as a child of the heavenly family and royal blood, you must naturally stand up when the imperial court is in trouble, sacrifice your ego and complete your self."

When Xu Jianqiang said this, Zhu Xieyuan still couldn't make up his mind. He said, "this should be what you, a traitor, instigated the emperor to do?"

Xu Jianqiang was not angry either. He said: "Is there a better way for Zhu Gong to watch his 100000 troops starve to death? So many people starve to death in Henan? The situation in Henan collapsed, and the Chinese army fought over. Who was the cheapest in the end? Prince De's residence and Prince Lu's residence in Shandong have accumulated so much amazing wealth, and finally the imperial court, the people, or the Chinese thieves?"

Xu Jianqiang said: "when we say this, Duke Zhu also knows that Daming is a big mistake in the situation. It is the time for us capable ministers to stand up and turn the tide. We must do extraordinary things at an extraordinary time, otherwise we will sit and wait for destruction."

Zhu Xieyuan finally made up his mind and said, "OK! I will send troops to help you."

Xu Jianqiang was overjoyed and said, "the clear stream in the court will certainly attack us and abuse us, but history will return us to a fair and innocent. What I admire most is Yu Shaobao's sentence: I don't hesitate to break my bones and stay innocent in the world."

Yu Shaobao was among the literary ministers of the Ming Dynasty. He was like a God. When the other party said it, Zhu Xieyuan was a little upset and said, "don't compare yourself with the sages."

Xu Jianqiang said: "although someone is a eunuch, he is physically disabled and has strong ambition and painstaking solitary purpose. He is a hundred times better than those literary ministers who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality and can only talk about nothing."

Zhu Xieyuan recognized this. Officials of the Ming Dynasty are now good at talking, and their actual ability is very poor. This is the key to the corruption and inefficiency of the imperial court.

No one would have known that Daming was so corrupt and incompetent without the help of Chinese thieves. Daming looked very strong and powerful. He was like an old man who was wounded, old and disabled, and fell down with a gentle push.

Zhu Xieyuan understood this, so he was deeply worried and knew that today's Daming must take extraordinary measures to make him continue, otherwise they would be the subjugated ministers of Daming.

Xu Jianqiang braved the wind and snow and went south day and night to Nanyang to prepare military pay for Zhu Xieyuan's army. However, his way of preparing military pay is a little special. This is to kill the fat pig Fuwang.

Looking at the whole of Henan, the richest one is the Fuwang. Henan has been suffering from severe drought for several consecutive years, and the people have no harvest. In many places, the people are hungry and hungry, and the bark and grass roots have been eaten up. This is also the area with the most serious war chaos by roving bandits. Of course, its disaster has no impact on the Fuwang. The Fuwang is still sitting in his Fuwang mansion.

Zhu Xieyuan's military salary is a big problem. The Ming court can't get so many military salaries, and the National Treasury can't get so many military salaries. Either watching these soldiers starve to death or watching them mutiny, so Xu Jianqiang made this bad decision.

At the beginning of this proposal, Emperor Chongzhen was furious and thought that he was provoking the relationship between the royal families, which was a very despicable and despicable thing.

Although people all over the world know the gratitude and resentment between Zhu Changxun and Zhu Changle, the blessing king, and no one thinks that they are brothers and harmonious, this is a matter within the royal family. If he starts with this uncle, he is afraid that he will be laughed at by people all over the world.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen was short of money. No matter how poor and hard he was, he would not have this idea.

When Xu Jianqiang made such a proposal, he was very angry.

But Xu Jianqiang asked him at that time: "does the emperor want to protect Daming or King Fu?"

Finally, after several considerations, Emperor Chongzhen decided to agree with Xu Jianqiang.

This matter is left to the East factory. If there is any problem and black pot, they will carry it. This is also an agreement between them. Xu Jianqiang is not afraid. He thinks that he is really loyal to Daming. If Daming is over, he has no way out.

The dozens of people around Xu Jianqiang can't do this unless Zhu Xieyuan sends an army to help.

Zhu Xieyuan also has no qualification and reason to verb King Fu, unless it is king Fu's rebellion.

But at this time, with the help of East Hall and the will of the emperor, it is different.

No matter how poor Zhu Xieyuan was, he didn't dare to attack the prince, but it was the emperor's order that he should do so.

So after discussing, they immediately selected five thousand elite soldiers and rushed to Luoyang day and night, mainly to win Luoyang and do it at the same time.

Zhu Xieyuan's current status is somewhat embarrassing. He used to be the supervisor of the five southwest provinces and was responsible for commanding the military affairs of the five provinces, but now he was beaten by the Chinese army and fled to Henan, but Henan is not under his control.

However, there is no problem. He also has the title of minister of the Ministry of war. With this title, he is reasonable and legal wherever he goes.

Moreover, the current situation in Henan is also very chaotic. The original drought and disasters have made the local poor and not worried. Coupled with the chaos caused by the roving bandits, it is even worse. After the Liu family started the army, Henan and Shandong are connected and have become a war zone. Under the condition of being forced, the local governments have also sent out military forces to prepare to attack Shandong from the direction of Henan.

So when Zhu Xieyuan arrived here, the court simply handed over all the troops in Henan to him, and he unified and coordinated the troops in these places.

After all, Zhu Xieyuan is a famous scholar bureaucrat. He has lived and died for the Ming Dynasty for decades and has proved his ability. As long as he still works for Daming, Daming will reuse him.
