Daming pirates

Just when Zu Dashou was having a headache over this matter, an envoy sent by Yu Xiaotian was caught by the defenders at Shanhaiguan. The envoy from Yu Jiajun was a young man who disguised himself as a traveling businessman. When he was caught

After he moved in, he disclosed his identity and said that he was here to see his ancestors on his birthday as ordered by Xiaotian.

The Shanhaiguan guard did not dare to kill him, but Wu Sangui, who was in Shanhaiguan at this time, heard the news and insisted on killing Yu Xiaotian's envoy to pay homage to his father Wu Xiang.

Finally, under the persuasion of everyone, Wu Sangui had to give up the idea of ​​killing him, and the Shanhaiguan garrison quickly sent someone to send the envoy to Jinzhou to meet Zu Dashou.

After the envoy arrived in Jinzhou, he had a secret talk with Zu Dashou for a period of time, and finally reached an agreement with Zu Dashou and other generals of the Guan Ning Army, that is, no matter how the situation in the pass changes, even if Yu Xiaotian takes power in the future, he will continue to guarantee

The supply of supplies for Guan Ning's army and all the previous supplies will not change in the future. After Yu Xiaotian's guarantee, Zu Dashou and other generals outside Guan Ning felt relieved.

Since Yu Xiaotian has promised not to cut off their food and salary supply in the future, why do they still fight against Yu Xiaotian? They can't defeat the family army, so they can only listen to Yu Xiaotian's orders from now on. As long as Yu Xiaotian

If God is not too harsh on them and allows them to live their lives, then who will be in power in the court is not their concern.

So Zu Dashou asked the envoy to go back and tell Yu Xiaotian that if Yu Xiaotian was sincere, he would first allocate 200,000 taels of salary to him. As long as he received the salary, he would promise not to lead his army into the pass.

After Yu Xiaotian learned about the condition proposed by Zu Dashou, without saying a word, he ordered the allocation of 200,000 taels of silver and immediately transported it to Shanhaiguan and handed it over to Zu Dashou for use.

Zu Dashou saw that Yu Xiaotian was so cheerful, so he had nothing to hesitate. He immediately stated that as long as Yu Xiaotian did not treat them badly in the future, Guan Ning's army would never send a single soldier into the pass to find Yu.

Xiaotian's troubles.

The conclusion of this agreement provided Yu Xiaotian with a rare buffer time. Then he would be less afraid of Guan Ning's army and could go all out to use troops to quickly control the situation in the north.

After hearing what Yu Xiaotian said about the agreement reached with Guan Ning's generals, Chongzhen slumped down on the dragon chair, his face turned ashen, and he was speechless for a long time.

He knew that he had been completely abandoned by many people. This time Yu Xiaotian came to Beijing to Qingjun's side, which made him see the shamelessness of many officials and scholars in the world.

On the surface, these people are all sanctimonious, like gentlemen, but in fact, they are all male thieves and female prostitutes. Such bullshit moral integrity is not what they care about at all. What they care most about is whether they can keep their official positions. What will happen to them in the future?

Can they continue to make money and be a superior person? As for being loyal to the country that they usually talk about the most, it is just a cover they use to decorate their appearance.

When one day someone wants to usurp power, these people will immediately show their ugly faces, and one by one they will immediately tear off their previous disguises and run to find new friends.

On the contrary, Zu Dashou and his gang of Qiuba are even cuter than these people. They are shameless and do not want to be exposed. They will work for whoever provides them with food and salary. Now that the court is controlled by Yu Xiaotian, then

They listened to Yu Xiaotian because they could say that they were soldiers and their duty was to guard Guan Ning. As for who would be in power, it was not their concern.

After Yu Xiaotian told Chongzhen everything, many important ministers in many places showed their willingness to obey Yu Xiaotian's instructions under Yu Xiaotian's lobbying. Cracks began to appear in Chongzhen's entire psychological defense line.

The previous persistence and perseverance had now become fragile.

Chongzhen sat on the dragon throne and asked himself, had he really been wrong for so many years? Over the years, he had done so much and paid so much for the entire Ming Dynasty, but what result did he get?

Everyone rebels against relatives and leaves, yes! It means everyone rebels against relatives and leaves. There is no word that is more appropriate than these four words. He wanted to be a wise king, but the ministers under him made it impossible for him to be a wise king. He wanted to revive the Ming Dynasty, and he did it for

Despite this effort, instead of seeing any signs of revival in the Ming Dynasty, the situation in the entire world is deteriorating.

After he ascended the throne, he determined to regain Liaodong and eliminate the Jiannu. However, after more than ten years, the Jiannu not only were not eliminated, but became stronger and stronger, controlling more land in Liaodong, and Dongjiang Town was also lost.

He wanted to make the country prosperous and the people strong, but the people of the Ming Dynasty had a hard time making a living. He wanted a clear officialdom, but most of the officials were corrupt and shameless to the extreme. When they were officials, they thought about party fighting every day.

In the struggle for power and profit, not many people really think about his Ming Dynasty.

Over the years, he has killed many ministers, but he still has not been able to change anything. The situation in the Ming Dynasty continues to deteriorate, leaving him without any hope.

Now Yu Xiaotian brazenly entered the capital to seize power, but very few officials in the court actually stood up to fight against him. Almost most of the officials immediately chose to side with Yu Xiaotian and began to cheer for Yu Xiaotian.

Make suggestions for Yu Xiaotian and do things for Yu Xiaotian.

Now even Hong Chengchou, whom he valued most and relied on as the Great Wall, has chosen to betray him. Over the years, he has tried every means to invest millions of taels of silver to create the Guan Ning Army, the strongest military force in the Ming Dynasty.

But he just stood on the sidelines and didn't care about his life or death.

So Chongzhen finally collapsed completely and jumped up again to fight Yu Xiaotian. Yu Xiaotian did not fight him, but just took a step back. The eunuchs hurriedly went up to persuade Chongzhen and comforted Chongzhen again.

Come down.

When Chongzhen calmed down again, he seemed to have aged many years instantly, and his spirit became even more depressed.

"It's ridiculous! It's really ridiculous! I think that after I, Zhu Youjian, came to the throne, I worked hard and did so many things for the sake of a better tomorrow, but in the end I ended up with such a miserable end!

Yu Xiaotian, you are satisfied now! You must be very proud now!" Chongzhen slowly raised his head and looked at Yu Xiaotian with extremely resentful eyes, but in a mocking tone, he asked Xiaotian

road.

Yu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Your Majesty! I don't feel proud at all! Instead, I feel sad! This is the current situation of officials in the Ming Dynasty. They eat the emperor's salary, but they don't want to serve the country! This is not only the sadness of the Holy Majesty, but also the sadness of the Ming Dynasty officials.

The sorrow of the world!

Now the Holy One should understand why Yu said that he wanted to completely smash this officialdom! Does the Holy One think that it is necessary to continue to preserve such an officialdom in the Ming Dynasty?

If the Ming Dynasty continues like this, I am afraid that it will die at the hands of these people. This is by no means an alarmist statement. Therefore, if you want to repeat the power of our Han nation, you will definitely not be able to rely on these people.

The Ming Dynasty's official style has become difficult to return to, and strong medicine must be given to reverse it. The method of treating headaches, headaches, and feet, as the emperor used to do, is obviously ineffective. So Weichen is willing to be this evil person to put these stereotypes and customs to the test.

Completely smash it and start over!

Wei Chen doesn't value the throne, which doesn't mean much to Wei Chen. Wei Chen really doesn't care about the Ming Dynasty. Wei Chen wants much more than the current territory of the Ming Dynasty.

What I want is that in the next few decades, I will see with my own eyes that we Han people sail across the sea to places we have never set foot on before, and open up a broader territory for us Han people!

If we miss this time, then we Chinese will lose this best opportunity forever. Therefore, Weichen is bold and implores His Majesty to authorize Weichen to show off his talents! Doing this is not only beneficial to His Majesty, but also beneficial to His Majesty.

It is beneficial to the people of the world, and it is even more beneficial to our Han nation!

If the Holy One continues to insist, then so be it! The worst case scenario is that Yu will become a butcher and fight his way out to restore the prestige of our country, China! It’s just that more people will die!”

After Chongzhen heard this, he suddenly burst into laughter. He leaned forward and backward, beat his chest and beat his feet. He almost couldn't breathe with laughter. Everyone in the hall was shocked. They almost thought that Chongzhen couldn't bear this kind of blow, and he went completely crazy on the spot.

Dropped.

Wang Chengen quickly stepped forward, caressed Chongzhen's chest and beat his back. After Chongzhen laughed wildly for a while, tears flowed out of his eyes, and then he gradually stopped laughing.

Chongzhen pointed at Yu Xiaotian and said in a mocking tone again: "Okay! Yu Xiaotian! Since you want this mess so much, why am I reluctant to part with it? Just take whatever you want! I will do it according to you

As I said, let’s see what you can do in ten years!

You remember, ten years! The ten years you said, within ten years, you will make the world peaceful and the country prosperous and the people strong! Ten years, within ten years, you will annihilate the Eastern Tatars! I am sitting here,

Watch you do it and see if you can do it while vibrating!

Wang Chengen, go and get the jade seal! Just give it to him!"

Wang Chengen burst into tears, knelt on the ground and begged: "No, Your Majesty! I cannot hand over this jade seal!"

Chongzhen glared and said angrily: "Don't be wordy, just go and get it. Even if I keep it, what's the use? Do these people still have me as a saint in their eyes?"

On the eighth day of May in the twelfth year of Chongzhen, a very important news came out of the capital that had been in chaos for several months. The current emperor, Emperor Chongzhen, issued an edict approving Yu Xiaotian's move to sideline the Qing emperor. This was also officially equivalent to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

The final compromise was made against Xiaotian's usurpation of power.
