I, The Identity of the Immortal Master, Has Been Exposed
Chapter 63: Cabinet Power?
Wang Chengen hesitated for a moment, then hesitantly said:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, in the treasury... there are only 300,000 taels of silver left in the treasury."
"Thirty... three hundred thousand? 39
When Cao Zhengchun heard the words, he raised his head suddenly, his face full of surprise.
"Hehe, 300,000.
Chongzhen's face was icy cold, but there was a frightening cold light in his eyes.
He clearly remembered that, Ye Yu once said that after Li Zicheng entered Beijing, he plundered 70 million taels of silver from hundreds of officials.
And this is just silver, not including land, shops, calligraphy and painting, etc.
How much are these things worth?
A Ming Empire of Nuoda can't even take out a million silver.
And how much blood did those moths lay on Daming's body? It's scary to think about it.
Chongzhen grinned and said, "From today, Dongchang will release the assets of officials above the seventh grade in Peiping.
"Secretly investigate clearly, there is no money in my treasury, these bastards are very rich.
"How much blood has been sucked from my Daming, then let them spit it out for me!"
"Yes! 99
When Cao Zhengchun heard the sound, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he repeatedly agreed.
He seems to have seen the scenes of these corrupt ministers being sacked and their families being raided and exterminated.
When he thought of this scene, Cao Zhengchun was full of excitement.
As a knife in His Majesty's hand, the East Factory is finally about to contribute.
Wang Chengen was also happy.
Even an idiot could guess that Chongzhen was about to attack these corrupt officials.
Among the officials in the capital, how many are not greedy?
After slaughtering these fat sheep, not only the money collected can be used to recruit troops and horses, strengthen the court, but also take the opportunity to deter the court and the public.
Let those who are embezzling, or who are preparing to embezzle, see what happens to those who embezzle in Daming.
Killing a few people and offering sacrifices to the flag is a harmless thing for Daming.
Chongzhen recalled the national salvation policy Ye Yu had set for himself, turned his head to look at Wang Chengen and said:
"How about the people I asked you to find?"
"Report to Your Majesty."
Wang Chengen said cautiously: "Deputy General Huang is already waiting outside the hall, and that Sun Heding has arrived in Peiping, when are you going to see them?
"Don't worry, let the forbidden army gather in the school grounds first.
Chongzhen instructed: "Let's spread the word about Cao Bianjiao in Liaodong again, Nanjin Bi Maokang will come to Beijing to see him immediately, and order to reward Sun Chuanting, the governor of the three sides."
"Order him to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng, appoint Lu Xiang, the servant of the Ministry of War, to be promoted to the general manager of Xuan, and order him to take office immediately!
"…Yes!"
Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun looked at each other secretly, and they were amazed.
What is this situation, why did His Majesty make such a big move all of a sudden?
You must know that such a large-scale transfer of personnel will definitely cause shocks in the court and the opposition. If there are no special circumstances, it is impossible for His Majesty to make such a decision.
Could it be that His Majesty really saw the immortal and got the inspiration from the immortal.
The two of them were reluctant to believe it instinctively, but since things have developed so far, this is the only way to explain His Majesty's bizarre behavior these past two days.
Chongzhen didn't care about the thoughts of his two confidants, even if he knew, he secretly praised it in his heart.
After all, create a sense of mystery and shape yourself into an emperor who has been inspired by immortals.
It is also very beneficial for him, and it can make his next actions more convenient.
Until this time, Chongzhen breathed a sigh of relief, and now Ouchi is temporarily settled down.
Although there is still a long way to go before completely reversing the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty.
But with Ye Yu's guidance, Chongzhen finally saw a chance in the chaos.
What we have to do now is to set things right and gather strength secretly.
"Send Huang Degong and Sun Heding to immediately go to the school grounds to review the three armies with me!"
Chongzhen finally left a sentence and went straight to the school grounds with Wang Chengen.
He wanted to see how good Daming's army is now.
At this time, the palace grounds were already full of people.
Tens of thousands of soldiers in tattered armor stood listlessly and crookedly in the school field.
During the Ming Dynasty, the garrison forces in Peiping were the Jingguan guarding the capital, and the twenty-six guards who surrounded the imperial city, also known as the forbidden army.
However, over the years, the defense of the Ming Dynasty has been lax, and corruption has emerged one after another in the courtroom, including the forbidden army.
The soldiers did not have too high military salaries, nor did they have suitable equipment, and even most of them stayed in the forbidden army with an attitude of messing around.
Most of them are pretentious, and they basically don't have much combat power.
Huang Degong stood in front of the school grounds, frowning and looking at the slanted guards in front of him.
He was a middle-aged man in his mid-thirties, tall and dignified, and at first glance he was a master with a restrained expression.
Next to him stood a young man in his twenties, dressed in tattered robes.
With a thin body and a sallow complexion, he is the descendant of Sun Yuanhua, the first firearm master of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty is here!
"We pay homage to the Holy One!"
As Wang Chengen's voice sounded, the imperial guards were all in their hearts, and the momentum was huge.
Huang Degong and Sun Heding also hurriedly greeted them, although they did not know why His Majesty wanted to summon them.
But they knew very well that when they met His Majesty, any lack of etiquette would offend His Majesty.
"Free gift!"
Chongzhen waved his hand at will, looking at Huang Degong and Sun Heding with bright eyes, with a look of admiration on his face.
In his heart, he secretly thought that he was indeed the talent that the Immortal Master saw, and he was indeed a dragon and a phoenix among the people.
This Huang Degong is extraordinary, and at first glance, he is a capable general of bravery and skill.
Although Sun Heding looked shivering, but his eyes were bright, and he was indeed a master of firearms of a generation.
Huang Degong and Sun Heding were seen by Chongzhen with numb scalps and trembling in their hearts.
Why does His Majesty look at them like this? Could it be that His Majesty actually likes male sex and wants them to enter the palace to serve in the bed.
Huang Degong and Sun Heding looked at each other with a chill in their hearts.
"Cough cough."
At this time, Chongzhen also realized that his eyes were too hot, coughed twice in embarrassment, and then said to Huang Degong:
"Huang Qing, do you know why I recruited you into the palace?
Huang Degong subconsciously took a step back, his calf was spinning, and he said with a guilty conscience: "Wei Chen... Wei Chen doesn't know.""
"Hahaha, I want you, I want to reuse you!"
Chongzhen laughed and said: "I want you to be a general, I wonder if you will?
"what?"
Huang Degong was a little dumbfounded. His Majesty didn't like his "beauty", but wanted to reuse him? What is this development?
But after the surprise, Huang Degong was ecstatic, and hurriedly knelt down to Chongzhen: "I am willing!
"I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"
He is a dignified deputy chief soldier, and among the many generals of the Ming Dynasty, he is unknown.
...for flowers 0.
To be directly promoted to general, this is simply a step to the sky, what is he reluctant to do.
"Good! 99
Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction: "I have ordered you to be the governor of Jingying and rectify the military camp from now on."
"I don't want to see the corruption and filth in the army anymore, can you do it?"
"Wei Chen is willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty, no matter what!
Huang Degong immediately knelt down and took orders. He did not expect that His Majesty not only made him a general, but even handed most of the army in the capital into his hands.
This is simply unparalleled trust.
Huang Degong now feels like he is living in a dream.
How can he be able to sit in such a high position, only with practical actions to repay His Majesty's trust!
"Okay, with Huang Qing being such a fierce general, I am safe!"
Seeing this, Chongzhen immediately laughed happily, and reached out his hand to help Huang Degong, who was full of excitement, from the ground.
But here, a harsh voice suddenly came in, causing Chongzhen's expression to change instantly.
"Your Majesty, I do not agree with this appointment!"
Among the forbidden army, a tall and powerful general stood up. He looked at Chongzhen and said with a trace of disdain:
"Your Majesty, not only we will not agree, neither the Cabinet nor the Ministry of War will agree! 35
"What did you say!"
Chongzhen's face was extremely cold, his sharp eyes were like a knife stabbing the forbidden soldier, and his whole body was filled with a fierce murderous aura.
The imperial guard was taken aback, but when he thought of the cabinet standing behind him, he felt relieved.
He was the one who was arranged by the cabinet to join the Imperial Army, how could he be afraid of a little emperor who was dying soon.
He sneered and said: "Your Majesty, I advise you to withdraw your appointment, otherwise if this appointment is rejected by the cabinet, your face will not look good!
Yes, both the Cabinet and the Ministry of War have the right to disagree.
This is the most bizarre system of the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming emperor and the scholar-officials ruled the world together, and the cabinet had enormous power.
Except for Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of Ming Dynasty, every emperor's whole life energy was fighting with the cabinet.
Even if he is as ruthless as Zhu Di, there is nothing he can do in the face of the cabinet.
Chongzhen wanted to hand over so many banned troops to Huang Degong alone, but the cabinet obviously would not agree.
In other words, as long as it touches the scope of their interests, the cabinet will not agree.
The banned soldier seemed to be able to foresee the ugly expression on his face after Chongzhen's appointment was rejected by the cabinet, and the sarcasm on his face was even worse.
"Hmph, does anyone else think my appointment doesn't work?"
Chongzhen snorted coldly, his sharp eyes swept across the faces of those banned soldiers, and there was a suffocating suffocating in his eyes.
At that moment, more than a dozen Imperial Guards stood up, standing with the former Imperial Guard, and resisted silently together.
"Hehe~"
Chongzhen laughed in anger, and his palms hidden in his sleeves kept stroking the handle of the Desert Eagle's gun.
A few small banned troops are openly opposed to themselves, which shows how powerful the cabinet is in the DPRK.
How low is his control over the imperial court?
If he had seen this situation before, Chongzhen would still be able to endure it.
But since listening to the teachings of the Immortal Master last night and seeing the domineering arrogance of the First Emperor, how could Chongzhen endure it?
Be an emperor, be like the first emperor, and kill those who don't obey!
