Ming Dynasty: The Rampant Crown Prince

"The criminal minister went to the soup and died, and he must live up to the high expectations of His Royal Highness the Prince!" Qian

Qianyi was stunned, he thought he was dead, but he didn't expect the prince to give him a way to live, when he got up from the ground, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and shouted excitedly.

"Get up and talk back.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Cihong's mouth, Qian Qianyi is very easy to handle, he is very afraid of death, if it is useful, he will use it, and if it is useless, he will die, it is as simple as that.

He Zhu Cihong now has no time to play fame, morality, and power struggle with these literati, in extraordinary times, with extraordinary means, the current Ming Dynasty needs a big change of blood, and needs to be drastic, when the time comes, who stays and who dies, it depends on what he says, who dares to object.

However, under this premise, there must be an army that sweeps the world, which is also the most urgent goal he wants to accomplish at present.

"Your Highness.

Qian Qianyi wiped the tears from his face.

"Although you are asked to make meritorious contributions, after all, someone has impeached your crime to this palace, and if you don't do something, it's not easy to explain.

Zhu Cihong smiled and said: "In this way, your family property will be confiscated according to the law, and you will be punished with guilt, and after the matter is done, the palace will restore you to the position of the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and there will be a reward, can you be convinced?"

Qian Qianyi's heart ached, but he did have a flattered look on his face, and sighed that the prince was too powerful.

"Alright, you go back to your home and wait for the summons.

Zhu Cihong dropped this sentence and left the Criminal Department.

......

When I returned to the East Palace, all the belongings of the raided family had already been moved, and eight personal guards were guarding them.

Qiu Zhizhong, someone moved these into the inner library of the East Palace and recorded them.

Zhu Cihong looked at the moonlight, it was very late, and he was tired for a day, but he still had something to do.

Back in the hall, Zhu Cihong immediately opened the gold gift package, and he noticed that compared with the previous silver gift package, this gold gift package has more big characters, and it must be a good thing.

"Ding~ The golden gift package is being opened...... Open it successfully, get five hundred white horse righteous cavalry elite!

" "Hiss!"

Hearing this prompt, Zhu Cihong suddenly gasped, he knew that this unit was an elite cavalry under the command of Gongsun Zhan of the Three Kingdoms, good at riding and shooting, and had a brilliant record of being undefeated against three thousand enemy troops with five hundred elite cavalry.

The system is really timely rain, knowing that he doesn't have a basic team of the army, he immediately sent a cavalry.

"Release the white horse and ride lightly. Zhu

Cihong immediately wanted to see the majesty of this cavalry.

"Ding~ The venue is insufficient and cannot be released.

Hearing this, he was slightly stunned, and turned to look at his East Palace, which seemed to be not enough to accommodate five hundred heavily armed cavalry.

There was no way, he had to go to the school tomorrow to be released.

"Zhang Huaibin. "

The subordinates are here. "

You arrange for eighteen horsemen to take turns to keep vigil at the door of my main hall, and if you find anyone sneakily approaching my East Palace tonight, take it immediately.

"Yes. Zhu

Cihong's move was also a last resort, he offended most of the civil officials in the court at once, of course he had to be cautious, but he knew the three major cases in the late Ming Dynasty, the Emperor of the Apocalypse fell into the water and died, here it is said that there is no Donglin Party, he does not believe it.

When the time comes, it's time to clean the palace.

But now that he has five hundred white horse followers, he finally has a little sense of security in his heart, no matter how loyal others are, they are not as loyal as those given by the system.

......

Capital, early morning.

The news of six court ministers, a second-grade scholar, two third-grade high-ranking officials, and even a prince of the state, was given a capital crime by the crown prince and had his house raided, and an official was killed on the spot on the top of the main hall, as if spreading his wings, spread rapidly in the capital.

The rumors that came out, whether intentionally or unintentionally, were all rumored that after the crown prince obtained the power of the state, he was cruel and inhumane, killed people without blinking, and was an arbitrary and tyrannical tyrant.

Suddenly, everyone in the capital was in danger, fearing that the prince would be murderous and implicate himself, and some people even said that the prince was the reincarnation of Shura.

Of course, you don't dare to talk about it on the street, it's just gossip behind your back.

For the news reported by Jinyiwei, Zhu Cihong confessed that he didn't need to arrest anyone, of course he guessed that this was the ghost deliberately done by the old guys of the Donglin Party, just to destroy his reputation and make him have no popular support and no prestige in the hearts of the people.

But he doesn't have time to care about this group of moths now, and he is not in the mood to talk to them about these trivial things, if Zhu Cihong still cares about this infighting, he will definitely die in seven years.

When the important things are done, he will slowly clean up this group of moths, but he can't do nothing, otherwise he really doesn't understand anything.

"Qiu Zhizhong, pen and ink waiting.

After several palace maids changed their clothes, Zhu Cihong sat at the desk, holding a brush and writing on paper.

Write the crimes of the six people stroke by stroke, and try to write as much vernacular as possible, so that the people in the capital can understand it again, especially the crimes of corruption and bribery, annexation of military rations, and good land for the people.

It is a matter of the interests of the people and the army, and I think that the group of people and the officers and soldiers in the Beijing camp will not have a good impression of these officials.

The rumors deliberately spread by the Donglin Party can be greatly discounted.

"You take it to the Ministry of Works, engrave this accusation, and then send it down to the world to inform the world.

Zhu Cihong ordered to go down, Qiu Zhizhong immediately carefully picked up the paper and trotted out, it was about the slander of his master, and he, who was a slave, naturally couldn't look at it, so he naturally had to do it quickly.

After that, news came from the cabinet, saying that there were many pieces of music for the East Palace to see, and Zhu Cihong immediately rushed to the cabinet office.

"Ministers, see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chitose.

As soon as Zhu Cihong entered the cabinet, Fan Jingwen took the lead, and all the cabinet members knelt down one after another.

"Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the Ministry of Ministers, visited His Royal Highness the Prince.

Among them, Sun Chengzong, who had just arrived last night, came to Zhu Cihong's side again, and he heard that it was the prince's palace that recalled him and awarded him the position of secretary of the military department, and he was grateful, so he came non-stop day and night, and his heart to serve the court has never faded.

"Sun Butang, you are finally here, your merits have not been forgotten by the court, and neither has your father.

Zhu Cihong smiled and personally helped Sun Chengzong up, and the other party was so shocked that he didn't dare to say anything.

After greeting for a while, after Zhu Cihong took charge of the country, the first political discussion began.

"The palace is discussing politics for the first time, and there are still many things I don't understand, and I have to rely on a few elders and learn more Xi.

Zhu Cihong was polite.

Then, Fan Jingwen took the lead and began to discuss.

The first is the problem of anti-thieves, the more thieves are suppressed, the more they are, and the second is the drought in Shaanxi, which is the case every year, famine, there is a big flood in the south of the Yangtze River, taxes are reduced, the plot in Liaodong is severe, and Houjin is constantly knocking on the customs and so on.

In fact, these problems, added up, are nothing more than money, at this time, the household department can only come to a sentence, and when the year's tax arrives, it will be distributed to the ministries immediately.

That is to say, at this time, the Ming Dynasty, every year's tax revenue to the treasury, basically has not been hot, it has been asked by all parties, and it is not even enough, but it will be in deficit and part of the military salary will be owed.

Zhu Cihong saw it, so he asked for the most military salaries in Liaodong, and asked for the most ruthlessly, more than the military salaries in other places, and half of the taxes of the Ming Dynasty were used in Liaodong.

However, on the bright side, it is true that Liaodong is confronting Houjin, which naturally consumes a lot of military salaries, but Zhu Cihong squinted his eyes, and suddenly thought of a word in his mind: raising Kou self-respect.

The Guanning Iron Cavalry in the early stage is indeed possible, but the Guanning Army in the later stage can only defend the city, and it has become a private army, a warlord group headed by Zu Dashou and Wu Sangui.

If you really want to fight Houjin, you will already destroy the other party, either lie about the battle record, or you will raise your own respect, if you really destroy Houjin, won't half of the Ming Dynasty not be able to give Liaodong after tax?

"Your Highness, for the problem of suppressing thieves, there is a message from the southwest, saying that the more and more they suppress, our army is exhausted, and in addition to the lack of food and grass, the generals of various places are already tired of coping, but for those anti-thieves, of course, they must be swept away with the power of thunder, you see......"

Suddenly, a cabinet member suddenly asked Zhu Cihong.
