Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the first year of Tianqi, May 28th, it is suitable for weddings and funerals, but it is forbidden to move or move.  Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Emperor Tianqi sighed softly. Things in the world are unpredictable, but they always have their own rules. Sometimes even if he wants to change things, he is unable to do so.  After rubbing his swollen forehead, Emperor Tianqi picked up the memorial again and read it from the beginning.  The memorial in the hands of Emperor Tianqi was delivered by Zhao Yan, the governor of Shandong. Emperor Tianqi's plan to quietly quell the rebellion failed completely.  The memorial clearly states: On May 29, Xu Hongru, the leader of the Wenxiang Sect, declared a rebellion at Liangjialou between Yuncheng and Juye, Shandong.  Twenty thousand rebels gathered that day, and the first target of the rebel attack was Yuncheng.  That night, Chen Fang, the magistrate of Yuncheng County, and Zhang Fei, the general stationed in Yuncheng County, led two thousand officers and soldiers to defend Yuncheng. At dusk, the rebels attacked Yuncheng.  The officers and soldiers fought hard and refused to retreat. The rebels attacked Yuncheng for two hours without breaking the city. The morale of the officers and soldiers suddenly increased greatly, while the morale of the rebels was hindered.  At this critical moment, the rebels in Yuncheng should take advantage of the laxity of the officers and soldiers to attack and kill the officers and soldiers stationed at the city gate.  After a fierce battle and dozens of wounds, Yuncheng fought to the death of Zong Li.  The magistrate of Yuncheng County jumped off the city wall and died for his country.  Regarding this memorial, Emperor Tianqi knew that it was deliberately exaggerated, but it was true that the magistrate of Yuncheng and Mr. Ba were dead.  At this time, Emperor Tianqi would naturally not send anyone to verify this matter. As long as he died, he would have sacrificed his life for the country.  The rebellion has just begun, and there will be a more important counter-rebellion later. With such ministers at this time, it is natural to publicize it.  Whether it's true or not, now is not the time to pursue it.  There is only one thing to do now, and that is to praise and reward, and to set an example for others in the future.  After considering this matter, Emperor Tianqi continued to look down. The memorial read: "After the fall of Yuncheng, the rebels rushed directly to Juye without stopping. After fierce fighting day and night, Juye responded to the attack on the city, and Juye was also captured.  The rebels took over. Chen Linliang, the magistrate of Juye, faced the capital and killed himself with his sword. Wu Fangliang, the commander of Juye, fought hard and died. " Emperor Tianqi sighed softly and put down the memorial in his hand again.  Thinking quietly with a calm face.  Two county towns were occupied, and the military chiefs and magistrates of the two counties were all killed.  Emperor Tianqi believed that these people did not want to die, but there was nothing they could do.  Seeing the size of the rebels, they knew that these people would be exterminated by the court sooner or later. Surrendering them would not only implicate their tribe, but their future deaths would be even more ugly.  But if you die in battle at this time, you will be loyal to the country. Not only can you leave your name in history, but you can also benefit future generations.  Everyone except a fool knows how to make this kind of choice.  After thinking about it quietly, Emperor Tianqi frowned slightly and said with a stern face to Wang Chengen on the side: "Go and find Luo Sigong for me, and then send someone to pass the order and summon the cabinet bachelor, the six ministers, and the ministers of each ministry to discuss the matter.  ." After Wang Chengen left, Emperor Tianqi kept tapping the table, thinking quietly.  It will be a matter of time before the rebellion is put down. How can we get what we want from this rebellion? This is what Emperor Tianqi wants.  It didn¡¯t take long before Luo Sigong walked in. His face was very ugly.  Although Luo Sigong didn't deal with Xu Xianchun, he still recognized Xu Xianchun's ability. He didn't take the Shandong incident too seriously this time.  Ever since Xu Xianchun's last secret report, Luo Sigong knew that things were going to be bad.  I just received a secret report from Shandong that even if Emperor Tianqi doesn't look for me, Luo Sigong will come to the palace to see Emperor Tianqi.  Gently lifting up his clothes, Luo Sigong knelt on the ground and said, "Luo Sigong, Commander of the Royal Guards, is here to see Your Majesty! Long live my emperor!" Slowly waving his hand, Emperor Tianqi said calmly: "Get up!  Aiqing's face is not good? Is there any bad news? " "Your Majesty, something happened in Shandong." Luo Sigong bowed to Emperor Tianqi and said in a deep voice, "I know that Xu Xianchun is not doing his job well.  Your Majesty, please punish me for your poor supervision!" Emperor Tianqi smiled and said in a soft voice: "Get up! This time, I am a bit too strong. Xu Aiqing tried his best to do things for me. I already said it last time.  Merit." Throwing the memorial in his hand to Luo Sigong, Emperor Tianqi said calmly: "Ai Qing, this is the memorial from Sun Yanshang, governor of Shandong. Take a look!" After Luo Sigong finished reading, Emperor Tianqi continued: "  I'm curious, why is the news from Jinyiwei so slow this time? Isn't Xu Aiqing in Shandong? Why didn't you report the news? " "Your Majesty, this is a secret from Jinyiwei in Shandong. Please take a look at it!"  Luo Sigong raised the memorial above his head and said respectfully.  Taking the memorial handed over by Wang Chengen, Emperor Tianqi slowly opened it and read it slowly.  After reading this secret, Emperor Tianqi finally knew why.?No news came from Xu Xianchun.  It was written very clearly on the secret book that Xu Xianchun led a mixed army composed of officers and soldiers to arrest people. The person they arrested was Xu Hongru, the leader of the rebellion, the leader of the Wenxiang Sect.  However, this group of people seemed to have disappeared. There was no trace of them after they left Yuncheng. There was no news of this group of people until Yuncheng was breached.  Sighing softly, Emperor Tianqi said helplessly: "Xu Aiqing may be in danger this time. Let's keep this matter a secret until the rebellion subsides." "Yes, Your Majesty! I obey your order."  After giving a salute to Emperor Tianqi, Luo Sigong said in a deep voice.  Nodding with satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi liked Luo Sigong even more now. He was loyal to himself. No matter what he said or what he asked him to do, he would do it regardless of the reason or discount.  Emperor Tianqi naturally liked such subordinates very much. The most important thing was that Luo Sigong was capable.  The entire Jin Yiwei was in his hands, like an arm and a finger, very secure. This was the most important reason why Emperor Tianqi valued Luo Sigong.  "Your Majesty, the adults are already here, do you want them to come in?" After waving the little eunuch to leave, Wang Chengen came to Emperor Tianqi's side and whispered.  Nodding slightly, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Luo Aiqing, go ahead! Don't blame yourself too much for what happened in Shandong. This is not your responsibility!" "Yes, I thank you for your forgiveness, I take my leave!" Facing Tianqi  The emperor saluted, and Luo Sigong said with tears of gratitude.  When Luo Sigong left, Emperor Tianqi said to Wang Chengen on the side: "Let them come in!" It didn't take long, and all the ministers waiting outside came in. When everyone stood up, Emperor Tianqi handed over the memorial of Sun Yan, who was patrolling Shandong.  He gave it to Wang Chengen and said calmly: "Read it!" Wang Chengen took the memorial and read it slowly. When they heard the contents of the memorial, everyone below was stunned.  This memorial was urgently delivered from 800 miles away and was submitted directly to Emperor Tianqi. No one had read it. At this time, I heard that there was a rebellion in Shandong, and it had even reached the point of attacking the city and killing officials.  After reading the memorial, the hall fell into silence, and everyone looked at each other for a while.  Looking at the people below, Emperor Tianqi coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, now that the matter has come to this, what are the best ideas?" The ministers present looked at each other, and these people understood in their hearts that at this time,  There is no other way but to send troops to suppress them.  It's just that the court needs to set a main tone, whether to focus on extermination or recruitment.  This is an important issue every time troops are sent to quell a rebellion.  As long as this problem is solved, the next step is to send people.  "Your Majesty, I believe that Xu Hongru used evil cults to confuse people's hearts, which is really a heinous crime and should be punished properly. This thief is openly rebelling and deserves to be killed. I ask your Majesty to send troops to suppress the rebellion and put down the rebellion."  While everyone was pondering Emperor Tianqi's thoughts, a minister stood up, it was Xiong Wencan, the newly appointed Minister of War.  Looking at Xiong Wencan, who looked upright, the ministers in the hall had different eyes. Some expressed contempt, some expressed admiration, and some expressed regret.  Everyone knew that it was inevitable to send someone to quell the rebellion, so they did not come forward. Unexpectedly, a moment of negligence actually allowed him, Xiong Wencan, to take advantage of the loophole.  Emperor Tianqi looked at the ministers below, not knowing whether he should laugh or be angry. These people just couldn't change their aggressive habits.  Emperor Tianqi also knew that what Xiong Wencan said was nonsense, but he couldn't treat it as nonsense, so he had to ask in a deep voice: "What do you all think?" "Your Majesty, I think what Mr. Xiong said is very reasonable.  The disciples must be severely punished. I recommended Mr. Xiong Wencan, the Secretary of the Ministry of War. Mr. Xiong had fought against Japanese pirates and knew military affairs. He was also the first person to advocate sending troops to suppress the rebellion. I strongly recommended Mr. Xiong to serve as the supervisor to preside over the suppression of the rebellion.  Matters." After hearing Emperor Tianqi's question, someone immediately stood up, and this person was Wu Liangsi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue.  People in the main hall looked at each other in confusion again. Even if Xiong Wencan was clever, they would not directly recommend him to quell the rebellion!  Some people seemed to feel that there was something wrong with the limelight, and made up their minds not to say a word about it.  Emperor Tianqi pondered for a moment, glanced at Xiong Wencan, and nodded slowly. Emperor Tianqi fully trusted Xiong Wencan's ability.  Looking at Liu Yijing aside, Emperor Tianqi asked in a deep voice: "Liu Aiqing, what do you think about this matter?" Seeing Emperor Tianqi asking himself, Liu Yijing knew that he should speak, and he pondered for a moment before slowing down.  He said slowly: "There is nothing wrong with sending troops to exterminate the rebellion, so it is natural to choose the governor. Mr. Xiong is the best candidate in terms of qualifications, rotation control, and ability. I think Mr. Xiong is suitable." Standing aside.  Xiong WencanI was stunned, and I hated myself in my heart. I really shouldn't have played such a clever trick.  Now that the yellow mud is falling off the crotch, it is either shit or shit!  (To be continued.
