Chapter 516 The second or fifth boy in the dark, Yuan Chonghuan!
A few days later!
On the official road of the Ming Dynasty, you often see the Ming Dynasty's fast horses not receiving everywhere at night, and sending letters in a hurry for eight hundred miles. There are also pigeons flying everywhere in the sky!
As expected by Zhu Zilong, a mixed army of Mongolians and the Later Jin appeared in Shanhaiguan and Lushun, with great momentum.
However, they did not launch any attacks, but only siege the city.
The officials of the Ming Dynasty had many views on this, but Zhu Zilong believed in his heart that the Later Jin Dynasty must have a surprise attack on North Korea and robbed food and grass.
However, after a while, a lot of time has been wasted.
According to Zhu Zilong's guess, even if he issued an order at this time, the Zhu family army would have strong support to North Korea, it would probably be too late.
A few days later, it was estimated that Zhu Zilong used the orders of the emperor's clone to ask the Zhu family army to strengthen North Korea's support. The imperial edict might have just arrived, but the war has been reported there!
"The King of Korea has surrendered to Jiannu? How is this possible?" In the palace, Zhu Zilong's emperor clone was shocked and could hardly believe his ears. This was too fast, and it was too much to win by surprise, the guys from the Later Jin Dynasty!
The cabinet ministers replied with a sad face: "Yes, the emperor. We also find it strange. During the Chinese New Year, North Korea also sent envoys to the capital to pay tribute. In just a few days, Jiannu inexplicably invaded North Korea, and North Korea inexplicably surrendered to Jiannu."
When Zhu Zilong heard this, he felt a dizzy moment in his mind. Due to the limited information he had mastered and the distance was thousands of miles away, no matter how smart or deceitful he was, he could only be a hindsight.
"Your Majesty, this is the letter of the country of North Korea!"
Zhu Zilong finally calmed down and stopped talking. He sat on the dragon throne and took the letter from North Korea and started reading it.
But unfortunately, the letter to Li Dynasty was obviously written under the butcher knife of Jiannu. Apart from announcing the severance of clan relations with the Ming Dynasty, there was no useful information, as simple as official documents.
Looking at the border war report, Zhu Zilong slapped the table: "As far as I know, Jiannu's military use style is limited to the population. When using troops, he likes to concentrate his superior forces to fight a little. He never fights on two fronts, but divides his troops. In order to compete for the third-line battle, many officials on Shanhaiguan did not see that it was a fake attack. It was really stupid!"
"Your Majesty, there is also a memorial from Yuan Chonghuan here."
Zhu Zilong had a frown and took it and looked at it again.
Yuan Chonghuan's memorial mainly talks about the following things. First, the Jiannu army is ready to move and may invade Haizhou and Jinzhou. Second, he said that he had lost contact with Dongjiang Town and sent messengers to contact the Zhu family army twice. There was no news!
Zhu Zilong didn't believe any of the above words, and this was obviously a rhythm of throwing away his responsibilities.
However, some officials in the court did not care about so many.
During the morning court the next day, many censors started firing fire.
The impeachment of the Right Army of Lushun was absolved of military opportunities. He knew that Jiannu had launched a large-scale attack on North Korea, but he deliberately delayed and refused to report it. The basis is that so far, they have not submitted a military report to Ningyuan!
At this time, because of the surrender of North Korea to Jiannu, everyone in the court knew that many officials took preconceived ideas and supported the matter of accountability!
Fortunately, Zhu Zilong was the emperor, so he didn't let go after he bites his fingers, so he just thought he was the second emperor of Wanli. The censors said it very well, but they were temporarily kept and stopped.
Before leaving, Zhu Zilong decided to practice Tai Chi.
An order was issued to send an imperial envoy to Liaodong to investigate the matter in full-time, and then make plans after the facts were clear.
The imperial envoy was chosen as Liu Ruozai!
Liu Ruozai (1595-1640) has a name named Yinping and is a native of Daha, Pingshan Street, Huaining County, Anhui Province, and a new scholar Zhuangyuanlang!
In the history that had not changed, he often recommended wise, brave and loyal talents to the court. The famous general Shi Kefa in the late Ming Dynasty was promoted from Anchidao Supervisor to Anhui because of his recommendation.
On April 13, the 13th year of Chongzhen, he passed away due to overwork. After his death, he was posthumously awarded the title of "Staff" and was given a funeral to the son of the son. Later, he was given the title of "Staff" by his son Yu Wang Huishi and was given the title of Taipu Taiqing.
Zhu Zilong still believes in his character. Besides, as a new official, his relationship with all aspects is still very blank!
But at this moment.
Man Gui's memorial was also coming. In the memorial, he was so irritable that he had red eyes and impeached Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan to miss the military opportunity. He sent messengers to Liaodong for help five times, but they were all over the sea. He had never seen a reinforcement from beginning to end.
After reading the memorial, Zhu Zilong, the emperor's clone, suddenly felt a sudden roar, thinking that he was so bad.
The condemnation between Man Gui and Yuan Chonghuan, recalling the hostility that the two sides had long been known to the world. It would be even more confusing when they entered the water!
Don’t, go around and around, and finally, a group of innocent people have to be buried with you!
After all, Man Gui said that he sent five messengers to ask for help but had no news. If these five messengers were destroyed and their bodies were sank to the sea, then this case would be a headless unjust case.
The result of forcibly scrubbing the floor is that some people will bring out a group of scapegoats because they are afraid of trouble and to cover up the truth!
Just when Zhu Zilong was a little embarrassed and entangled, several cabinet ministers in the cabinet also browed.
Huang Liji whispered for a while with some confidants and said softly to each other: "Although I am not proficient in military affairs, I still know a little about the actions that have caused trouble over the years. In the past, he was able to please the favor of Jiu Qiansheng and was not convenient to suppress him. But this time, he was really too much. If he didn't get rid of him, I'm afraid there will be no peace in Liaodong. Do you think you want to give hints to the emperor?"
"My Lord, I think the emperor is very confident, so I can't help but suggest it. However, how to get rid of him has to be long-term! "
"We really have to make a long-term plan. Our Ming Dynasty is a reasonable place. He is also a third-rank official, without conclusive evidence. Even the emperor cannot take him to jail and question him casually. Moreover, if he doesn't see him, he will accept his fate and return to Beijing!"
Huang Liji was stunned for a moment after hearing what his confidants said.
I thought to myself, this is indeed the case. Back then, was it right?
But if the Nine Thousand Years kill Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou have to slander them for accepting bribes and compensation from Wang Huazhen, and they dare not give any charges and kill them directly.
Thinking of this, Huang Liji had to say dejectedly: "I hope that after Liu Ruozai arrived there, he could find witnesses to prove that Man Gui had indeed sent messengers for help five times."
Of course, he said that, but in fact he had no confidence when he said this.
After all, as long as anyone with a little bit of mind will secretly kill all the insiders in the first place!
In fact, Zhu Zilong, who was struggling, also thought so.
He can only do this now. The imperial envoy who investigated the case has been sent out. If he can find the real evidence, of course it would be best. Even if he can't find any real evidence, it would be easy for Liu Ruozai to prove that he is not guilty.
At that time, I will first save Mangui, a rare general.
In the future, I will find another excuse to see the opportunity, and I will take Yuan Chonghuan to the end, seize his military power, demote him to a civilian, and slowly find an excuse to settle the score with him. No matter how hard he has to cut him into pieces, it will be able to eliminate the hatred in my heart!
In the next few days, Zhu Zilong used his emperor's clone to appoint Sun Chuanting as the governor of Datong, Lu Xiang was promoted to the governor of Xuanfu, and Ma Shiying was promoted to the governor of Xuanda. As well as a group of officials who had intelligence proved to be related to Yuan Chonghuan, he put the criminals down!
Of course, although the officials in the court criticized this a lot, the Edominians opposed it the most. In the end, they could not stop Zhu Zilong from appointing private individuals. After all, he was the emperor!
