Chongzhen Chat Group
Chapter 1023 The Sorrow of Chongzhen’s Son
Something seemed wrong. Emperor Chongzhen was a little curious and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Empress Zhou can be said to be a rare virtuous and virtuous queen, and a traditional good queen. But at this moment, she was uncharacteristically silent and didn't answer. She just gave the emperor a rare look, closed her eyes and said nothing.
Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused when he saw her. Looking carefully, it seemed that she was angry and aggrieved, and her beautiful eyebrows were wrinkled. But if you have something to say, why don't you close your eyes and let me guess?
Thinking like this, he suddenly came to his senses and logged into the chat group.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the chat group, he saw a private message sent by Queen Zhou. He dared to come to the chat group to talk. This was not a bad idea. At least the palace maids and chamberlains did not know that the couple had conflicts.
However, since he last brought her into the chat group when he went south incognito, he has never seen her say anything other than business in the chat group. Is this an exception this time?
Emperor Chongzhen thought so, then he clicked on the private chat and looked at it: "I heard that His Majesty had a decree in the Wenhua Palace a few days ago. When His Majesty personally conquers the country in the future, there will be no prison?"
When he saw this sentence, he couldn't help but laugh. It turned out to be because of this. Emperor Chongzhen immediately understood the reason and replied: "Yes, I have this chat group system, why do I still need to set up a prison?"
"But His Majesty is not in the capital after all. Wouldn't it be safer if we set up a prison for the country?" Empress Zhou seemed to be a different person from her usual behavior at this time. She no longer was submissive and followed Emperor Chongzhen's wishes, but immediately refuted it. .
When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he sighed in his heart. It seems that the ancients and descendants are all the same, and they are more open-minded on the Internet. Or maybe Queen Zhou also figured out her own temper! With this thought in mind, he replied straight to the point: "Actually, you want to ask why I don't establish a crown prince, right?"
When Queen Zhou saw it, she was a little stunned. She didn't expect the emperor to be so straightforward. At this time, she suddenly felt that she seemed a bit abrupt. Setting up a prince is a very big deal and is taboo for many emperors. No emperor would be influenced by others on this matter.
However, this was related to her son. After Empress Zhou came to her senses, she replied: "But I am not virtuous and virtuous enough?"
"No!" Emperor Chongzhen categorically denied that at least Empress Zhou had nothing to criticize in her behavior. If I really want to say it, it is sometimes a little too rigid and not very interesting.
"That's my concubine..."
Before Queen Zhou could finish her next question, Emperor Chongzhen interrupted directly and said: "Stop guessing, if I don't tell you, you will never know the real reason until you die! "
When Queen Zhou heard this, she fell silent. She didn't know what to say. At the same time, she was also a little curious, what could be the reason that she couldn't figure out even to the point of death?
Emperor Chongzhen did not hold her back, and told her directly: "Because of this chat group system, I can live an extra fifty years. Do you think that if I make Ci Xing the crown prince now, will it end up harming him? ?”
"..." When Queen Zhou saw this answer, she was immediately speechless. If you live an extra fifty years, how many years will it take you to live? The Ming Dynasty... no no no... was there such a long-lived emperor in all dynasties? I'm afraid my son will be a prince for the rest of his life, right? Or, even his grandson should be a prince for life, right? Even, grandson’s grandson…
She couldn't imagine it. She had never heard of such a situation and didn't know how to face it. But at least one thing is that it seems really early to tell the emperor about the prince! It is also very possible that he will harm his own son!
Seeing that Queen Zhou didn't speak anymore, Emperor Chongzhen sent a private message and said: "Don't worry, I will treasure my son. When he is older, I will personally teach them and impart unprecedented knowledge."
The existence of the chat group and all the incredible things that happened to Emperor Chongzhen all proved how special Emperor Chongzhen was. His skills are probably the most precious wealth in the world. Queen Zhou thought so and finally felt relieved.
The maid waiting on the side looked at the queen and the emperor with their eyes closed. After a while, the queen's mood changed. She couldn't help but be surprised, thinking in her heart, could this be a divine relationship? Then the queen was fine and happy?
Despite such a small episode, the New Year's Eve in the Forbidden City in the capital was ultimately joyful. There were a lot of concubines sitting next to Emperor Chongzhen, including the new one. It’s such a joyful and harmonious experience!
However, at the same time, some people cannot celebrate the New Year well because the imperial edict has arrived.
Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hu, Guangxi Military Affairs and the governor of Guizhou, was a little confused. He didn't know why the emperor specifically gave him an imperial edict to mobilize the Shizhu Baigan Army to Yunnan. Min Hongxue, the imperial envoy, followed the order? Could it be that there is another chieftain making trouble over there? But if the chieftain rebels, putting down the rebellion is also within his scope of responsibility, so why don't he be transferred there?
Thinking this way, he became confused again. So what does it mean that Min Hongxue went to Yunnan to train troops? I thought before that we were going to cooperate with ourselves to put down the rebellion? But now the She'an rebellion has long been put down, and even the remnants have surrendered. But the military training there has not stopped, and the elite Shizhu Baigan Army has even been mobilized?
Zhu Xieyuan was a little confused. In fact, it was more than that. He had been fighting rebellions in the southwest all year round, and he had never seen him in front of the emperor. At first, I wasn’t too surprised when I heard the news from the capital. However, since the end of the second year of Chongzhen, when the Jianlu invaded the capital, the emperor's actions have become increasingly unclear. In other words, the emperor's methods are endless. Even though he has experienced a lot of things in the world, many things were unclear at the beginning. Do not understand.
The first direct interaction with the emperor was about the Ming Dynasty Construction Bank. Zhu Xieyuan was from Shaoxing Prefecture in Zhejiang Province. He thought he knew more about money matters than others. But the request he made at that time was rejected by the emperor. I didn't understand it at the time, but I finally realized it later. It was the emperor's maintenance of the Daming Construction Bank branch that allowed it to operate normally and led to the recovery of people's livelihood under his jurisdiction. It can be said that this Daming Construction Bank branch was an important factor in the rapid advancement of reconstruction after the military disaster.
After thinking for a long time, Zhu Xieyuan, who was already sixty-seven years old and had been leading troops all year round, was not in good health. He felt a little tired. He rubbed his head and relaxed for a while. Then he turned to look at the map of the northwest of the Ming Dynasty hanging on the wall, and suddenly his eyes lit up. Could it be that the emperor wanted to use troops against Dongwu and take back Mubang and other places? But if that's the case, Min Hongxue, as the imperial envoy of Zhibing, should have enough ability to complete this matter, right?
Thinking this way, he couldn't figure it out again. It's not that he's not smart enough, it's that he has too little information. At this time, he would never have imagined that the emperor attached great importance to Dongwu and was already planning for Ming Dynasty to own the outlet of the Indian Ocean. There was also the national policy of vassal feudalism overseas, with the King of Tang as the first example, launching unprecedented actions.
As a man who had commanded the army for many years, he was very puzzled by the emperor's layout in Yunnan, which made him feel a knot in his heart. The next day, he strolled to the Baigan Army barracks with his personal guards. He heard that the imperial envoy stayed here after delivering the order yesterday, so he felt the need to have a chat.
However, when he arrived at the Baigan Army camp, he suddenly discovered that in just one day, the Baigan Army was almost ready, which surprised him.
As the saying goes, before the army moves, food and grass go first. The Baigan Army is so fast, where does the money and food needed for the army come from? Zhu Xieyuan led the troops to guard here, but he had been worried about money and food, and was very sensitive to this.
He was the official of the Ming Dynasty and the supreme commander here. Naturally, he didn't need to worry much. He immediately broke into the Baigan Army's commander's tent and asked Qin Liangyu for answers. Zhao Yu, an official from the General Affairs Department who delivered the order, happened to be there. After understanding his purpose, he actually closed his eyes when Qin Liangyu looked at him for instructions.
This time, Zhu Xieyuan also saw it. Ganqing really had something to hide from him, and he was dealing with the imperial envoy who announced the decree. He waited patiently for a while, and when his anger was slowly building up, he suddenly saw Zhao Yu open his eyes, smiled slightly at Zhu Xieyuan and said: "Since Governor Zhu has asked, I just asked the emperor for instructions. With the emperor's permission, I can let Governor Zhu know."
Zhu Xieyuan was very surprised by these words. He was far away in the southwest border and had been leading the army in wars in the past few years. But he also heard that the factory guards had the ability of clairvoyance and ears, but in his opinion, this was just a rumor, and it was probably an exaggeration.
But he didn't expect that the imperial envoys who announced the decree would say this now. This was no child's play. Are there really people with such ability in the world? Simply incredible!
Putting this thought aside, he suddenly felt a slight sense of loss. Although he guarded the southwest for the Ming Dynasty, the new emperor didn't seem to trust him very much. Otherwise, what should I hide from myself?
While he was thinking this, Zhao Yu was already saying to him: "Your Majesty has decided on the national policy the year before last. The vassal kings are feudal overseas. From now on, no vassal kings will be left in the Ming Dynasty... Only in this way can we solve the problem accumulated by the hereditary vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty. All kinds of problems. Now the King of Tang is young and promising. He is the first feudal overseas vassal king. His target is Dongwu..."
This news, for those who don’t know, is earth-shattering news. Since ancient times, has there been any example of a vassal king establishing feudalism overseas? But the emperor did this, and the benefits actually don’t need to be explained. It has been nearly three hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Every generation of emperors will basically have hereditary vassals. If things go on for a long time, what land will there be in the Ming Dynasty that is not the fiefdom of the vassal king? How could the imperial government's finances and taxes afford so many clan salaries?
But this problem cannot be solved by any dynasty, no matter how wise and powerful the king is! It can't be that only the prince can inherit the throne, while the other princes don't have hereditary titles, right?
For civil servants, hereditary is a bit far away, and it is basically impossible to get a title. This also determines that their butts will not sit on the side of the hereditary system. Now the emperor actually has a fantastic idea to send the hereditary vassal king overseas. If the civil servants don't support this kind of thing, who else will support it?
Zhu Xieyuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately forgot his previous unhappiness. He even thought about whether those hereditary princes and princes granted by the founding of the country would also be granted overseas titles in the future? However, compared to the vassal king, the harm of these hereditary princes and princes is not that great. After all, these titles are only for one heir apparent. Not to mention the sons of the vassal king, except for the crown prince, other sons also have titles. Although they are lowered step by step, they still have titles. With more people, they still have a great influence on the court.
Zhu Xieyuan listened carefully to Zhao Yu's detailed description. As he listened, his brows suddenly wrinkled.
Zhao Yu saw that he had a bit of a misunderstanding. After he finished speaking, he explained with a smile: "This national policy is of great importance. Before the Tang Dynasty was sure, the emperor had always asked for it to be kept secret. Therefore, the only ministers in the court were Mr. Ge. We all know. The governors and governors in various places, like Governor Zhu, have not received any news yet."
If it was before, Zhu Xieyuan was indeed a little angry. After all, he was a high-ranking official in the border areas. According to the past, he had the power to quell the chieftain rebellion in the southwest for the Ming Dynasty. With such credit, he still needs to conceal his identity?
But after hearing about the vassal feudal overseas affairs, his unhappiness had long been thrown away in Java. After hearing Zhao Yu's explanation, he smiled and said: "No, no, I'm just thinking that the intensity of the border war and the war of annihilation are completely different, and the impact of this may also be extraordinary. !”
When Zhao Yu heard this, he was a little surprised. He quickly asked: "The Governor has no idea about this! Your Majesty would like to hear it."
After Zhu Xieyuan heard this, he stared at him for a while, and suddenly realized that this was not what the emperor was asking, right? Thinking about this, he thought about it again for a while, and then said solemnly: "Now that the imperial army occupied the front line of Mubang, it appeared that it would be a long-term war, and the King of Tang appeared in the army again, and showed that it was the army of the King of Tang. These things Behind the scenes, as long as someone thinks about it a little, they will know that this matter is not trivial..."
The King of Tang paid money to collect the victims and train a new army. Only by pointing out that this army was the King of Tang's army could the King of Tang donate generously and devote all his efforts to the conquest of Dongwu. Otherwise, if the vassal feudalism overseas is not implemented in practice, it will be difficult to implement it. As a result, Zhu Xieyuan, as an outsider, saw the problems this caused.
"...I see that King Nadongwutalong can actually adopt the national policy of recuperation and recuperation, which shows that he is a wise man. Such a smart person may be able to figure out the intentions of the imperial court. In this way, the war to destroy the country will inevitably It will make him jump over the wall in a panic. Under the full counterattack of King Long, he must not be underestimated."
Having said this, Zhu Xieyuan said with a serious expression: "There is one very important point. Please convey it to the emperor so that Mr. Min Ge must pay attention to it, in case the success fails and affects the feudal king's overseas plans!"
