Chapter 177
Qin Yiming was in Chen Yuanyuan's room, watching the green jade fingers jumping happily on the strings, listening to the graceful singing, the lingering sound was lingering, which was extremely beautiful, making people intoxicated without realizing it.
"Jingshan trombone crying blood, and loyal ministers die as ghosts. This "City of Sky" is played by you, Miss Yuanyuan. It is really wonderful. There is probably no more wonderful music in the world than this." Qin Yiming praised it without hesitation.
"It's better to be Qin Lang's song. This song can outline the sadness in people's hearts, as if you hear someone slowly telling and wailing, but it also gives people hope." Chen Yuanyuan said meaningfully.
"Haha, every flower is a world, different people will feel different when listening to the same song, but I can hear that there seems to be sadness in Miss Yuanyuan."
"Where is it?" Chen Yuanyuan adjusted herself, and her originally frozen face suddenly became radiant.
"Tomorrow morning, after the emperor arranges my position, I will go back to De'an Mansion. At that time, I will hand over the remaining 90,000 taels. Are you willing to go back with me? If you don't want to, I can also let you be free." Qin Yiming asked softly.
Chen Yuanyuan was very hesitant. She really couldn't refuse Qin Yiming's smile, her handsome face, majestic figure, and aura that was so powerful that she could make her surrender.
"There is another lady in my mansion. She is very nice and will treat you well!" Qin Yiming had not talked about his own family affairs yet. He was worried that Chen Yuanyuan would be irresistible.
Qin Yiming took out a document from his pocket and handed it to Chen Yuanyuan. Chen Yuanyuan didn't know what it was. He opened it and looked at it and said in surprise: "Disclosure?"
"Yes, if Miss Yuanyuan thinks I'm not good to you, or is not used to staying in De'an Mansion, you can take it out at any time." Qin Yiming's eyes were filled with the invisible tenderness that Chen Yuanyuan had.
Chen Yuanyuan suddenly felt a warm current invading her whole body, and her whole body became warm. The man in front of her was really a man that women all over the world admired. Although she had a seemingly rude appearance, she had such a considerate heart. What moved Chen Yuanyuan the most was that Qin Yiming respected him. These days, he was still a virgin, and he was not like other men, with bad intentions, and he wanted to give him something.
However, there is a problem that Chen Yuanyuan didn't quite understand. Qin Yiming seemed to see through his heart and knew that there was another person in his heart. Otherwise, how would this divorce book be explained? How did he know the secret deep in his heart? Could it be that he really heard it from the song he played? Chen Yuanyuan thought that there was only this possibility. After all, Qin Yiming was a music master who was hidden in Chen Yuanyuan's eyes.
"Everything is followed by Qin Lang's arrangement." Chen Yuanyuan finally decided and followed Qin Yiming to leave the capital. The divorce letter in her hand was torn to pieces by Chen Yuanyuan on the spot.
Kong Shuai may be a mirror and a moon. The person in front of him is also a great hero. Chen Yuanyuan's heart has long been melted by this person. Why can't people be fond of the new and get tired of the old? People should be fond of the new and get tired of the old and get tired of the new and get tired of the old and get tired of the new and get tired of the old and get tired of the new and get tired of the old and get tired of the new and get tired of the old!
The next day in the court.
Today, there were three more people in the Ming Dynasty court, namely Qin Yiming, Kang Bo, and Wu Sheng. These three people were the palace armors appointed by Chongzhen. Chongzhen selected them as the top martial arts scholars, the second martial arts scholars, and the third martial arts scholars. The main purpose of today's court meeting was to arrange the official positions of these three people, so that everyone in the world could serve the court.
But Chongzhen's mind was more than that. He also wanted to arrange another person, that person was Yang Sichang, the person Chongzhen trusted the most and wanted to reuse the most.
Chongzhen trusted Yang Sichang so much, because one was guilty of Yang Sichang. Yang Sichang's father Yang He was the governor of the military affairs of the three sides of Shaanxi, but the elite troops on the three sides were transferred to the Guanning Jin defense line at that time. Yang He had no soldiers under his command, so he had to advocate for pacification. As a result, the pacification failed and almost was chopped off by Chongzhen. Although he was spared from death, he died in depression. Yang Sichang not only did not hold a grudge against him because of this, but was loyal and did his best. The second was that in the ninth year of Chongzhen, Ajige's army attacked the capital, and Zhang Fengyi, the Minister of War, committed suicide due to crime. Chongzhen felt that no one was available, so he issued an order to seize the love and activate Yang Sichang, who was filial at home.
Chongzhen now realized a problem, that is, he had to arrange people to listen to him in the cabinet, but the current cabinet is all the elderly left by Wen Tiren, and he was completely different from him. The chief assistant Zhang Zhifa had no opinion and inherited Wen Tiren's policy, so he must arrange Yang Sichang into the cabinet.
"My dear friends, these three palace armors are here now. How to appoint them? You all give your opinions?" Chongzhen said.
Zhang Zhifa first came out and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that the local people should protect the local land so that the local people can do their best to ensure peace. I suggest that these people be assigned to their original military household registration offices so that they can better contribute to the local area."
"Yes, my lord, I will discuss it!"
"I'm going to discuss it!"
"I'm going to discuss it!"
Chongzhen seemed to have an unhappy look on his face and did not say a word, but he was laughing in his heart. He deliberately let out the wind so that these foreign ministers knew that he wanted to leave Qin Yiming in the capital. Now these ministers are indeed looking at Qin Yiming and looking at the plague god, and they are indeed trying to release Qin Yiming out.
Kong Yunzhen said: "The emperor, I suggest that Wu Sheng is from Shaanxi and appointed as the commander of the Yongchang Guard in Shaanxi, and Kang Bo is from Henan and appointed as the garrison of Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan. As for the top scholar of the martial arts, Qin should be appointed as the commander of the Xingdu Left-behind Office."
"Your Majesty, what Master Kong said makes sense. I will discuss it!" Chen Xinjia stood up again.
"I'm going to agree!" Li Jiantai also stood up.
"I'm going to discuss it!"
At this time, Chongzhen spoke: "Three dear friends, what are your objections to Lord Kong's arrangement?"
Neither Wu Sheng nor Kang Bo had any objections, nor Qin Yiming had no objections. He was not enough and felt a little disappointed. He worked so hard to get the top scorer in the martial arts exam, and only had a commander. His level was not as high as a garrison. It seemed that the people of Donglin deliberately made things difficult for him! Fortunately, Chongzhen promised the deputy general, Qin Yiming watched, watching the monarch and his subjects acting and playing games.
"Okay, Wu Sheng, Kang Bo received the order and appointed Wu Sheng as the commander of the Yongchang Guard in Shaanxi, and Kang Bo as the garrison of Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan. You will take office in the past few days, and you two can retire!" Chongzhen said.
"Thank you, Lord Long's kindness, I'm going to leave!" Wu Sheng and Kang Bo both retreated happily.
Everyone was very anxious. The emperor appointed Wu Sheng and Kang Bo, but did not confer Qin Yiming appoint Qin Yiming. Could it be that the emperor insisted on letting Qin Yiming stay in the capital?
Zhang Zhifa was about to speak, Chongzhen continued, "I like Qin Aiqing very much. I want Qin Aiqing to stay in the capital and serve as the commander of the Five Cities Military Command!
In addition, Yang Sichang was promoted to Minister of War and Grand Secretary of the Cabinet."
Chongzhen deliberately told the two of them together, and he knew that the court officials would object to the appointment of these two people.
Yang Sichang was in the court at this time, wearing a red official robe, but he didn't say a word. Now the entire foreign court gritted his teeth with hatred for him. He didn't want to attend the court meeting today, but Chongzhen specifically notified him to come here.
In comparison, some people can tolerate Qin Yiming in the capital, but to let Yang Sichang enter the pavilion, it really violated the bottom line of some people.
Huang Daozhou was not easy to mess with. This man has always been famous for his courage to speak out. He was dismissed from office when he impeached Wei Zhongxian. Later, after Chongzhen ascended the throne, he returned to the court. He was a famous thinker in the late Ming Dynasty and a master of Neo-Confucianism. He had good knowledge, so Chongzhen asked him to be the prince's teacher.
Huang Daozhou glanced at Yang Sichang standing beside him, and his heart was full of contempt and contempt.
Compared with Qin Yiming, Huang Daozhou hated Yang Sichang even more because he believed that Yang Sichang's advocated peace talks is to treason and surrender!
"Your Majesty, no!" Huang Daozhou opposed it very rudely.
Chongzhen ignored Huang Daozhou and said to Yang Sichang: "Yang Aiqing, today I will tell you the reason for your proposal to discuss peace."
Yang Sichang stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty is like a human body. The capital is the mind. Xuan, Jizhu Town is the shoulder and arm. The Central Plains south of the Yellow River and north of the river is the heart. Now the situation is that beacons appear outside the shoulder and arm, and it is very urgent. The bandits are in trouble and are in trouble. Although external troubles cannot be slowed down, internal troubles cannot be ignored, because it is poisoned in the heart. If you let it go, the heart is poisoned, the internal organs are ulcerated, and the essence and blood are drying up day by day. What is the use of only shoulder and arm? Therefore, the minister advocates first discussing with Jianlu, stabilize the situation near the capital, concentrate on it, and eliminate the bandits in one go. In order to fight against foreign countries, we must first stabilize the internal affairs...."
Yang Sichang talked with three points: First, he must first stabilize the country with resistance against foreign countries; second, he must eat enough food and then have enough soldiers; third, he can only defeat the bandits. Therefore, he suggested to discuss peace, increase wages and increase troops, four straights and six corners, and ten sides of the net.
"Internal diseases are caused by psychia. Does Lord Yang look down on those thieves and bandits too much? They are just some restless farmers! If those people can understand the words and have our Neo-Confucian master Huang, they will definitely be able to persuade them to turn from evil to justice." Kong Yunzhen said.
"Yes, those thieves are too greedy and selfish. How can they know the Confucian philosophy of preserving the laws of nature and destroying human desires?" He Fengnian also said on the side.
"So talented!" Qin Yiming couldn't help laughing. According to their logic, let these great scholars open the world and make the world peaceful.
Huang Daozhou was ignored by Chongzhen and felt unhappy. He stood up and said, "Emperor, Yang Sichang was chasing the roots and chasing the ends, regardless of importance. He seemed to be very serious, but he was talking nonsense. The thief was a little scared and not worth worrying about. Building the enemy was a big problem. Yang Sichang would never enter the cabinet!"
Huang Daozhou called his name directly, and he was very welcome.
"Sir"
"Sir"
"Sir"
The court officials followed up and took the team, putting pressure on Chongzhen.
"Why?" Chongzhen was very unhappy. He questioned Huang Daozhou. He knew that Huang Daozhou was the core figure of the outer court and had a huge influence.
"I have three reasons. First, Yang Sichang was unfilial, and his father died of illness. Lord Yang did not go home to mourn for three years, but stayed in the capital for a long time to be greedy for power; second, Yang Sichang had no talent, and he set up a net on all sides to collect and suppress the country and the people, and it was impossible to achieve results; third, Yang Sichang was in harmony, a traitor, a surrender faction! This is also the reason why Yang Sichang could never enter the cabinet." Huang Daozhou's words were convincing. As the leader of Donglin, Huang Daozhou's words immediately won unanimous approval from the court officials.
"Why can't we negotiate peace?" Chongzhen looked at Huang Daozhou coldly, and was angry. Peace negotiation was the most important part of Yang Sichang's political views and what he wanted to see. Chongzhen has always been very fond of Yang Sichang. Yang Sichang was only staying in Beijing after he seized love. Of course, he wanted to support Yang Sichang.
"If peace negotiations cannot be negotiated, peace negotiations will not be successful, and if successful, they will not last long!"
"Why is this?" Chongzhen was angry. He wanted to see what amazing insights this master of Neo-Confucianism had.
"First of all, Jianlu has been in chaos for decades. I have been unable to die. Even if the peace talks are successful, it is superficial and temporary. This will make my Ming soldiers relax and slack. Secondly, if the peace talks last for a long time, how will the soldiers on the nine sides of our Ming Dynasty be placed? These people are people who have been living by fighting for a long time. If they are allowed to plow the fields, they will inevitably be in chaos. Lao Huihui among the thieves is such an example. Yang Sichang is a man with evil intentions and is actually a traitor. He should be killed. How can the emperor let such people enter the cabinet, obey such treacherous thieves and advocate peace talks?" Huang Daozhou began to speak without restraint in the second half of the time and curse.
Yang Sichang didn't say a word and let Huang Daozhou scold him, but Chongzhen was really angry and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Did you only learn the knowledge of your life?"
Qin Yiming obediently stood by, looking at Chongzhen with a cold face. The emperor was indeed very terrible when he got angry, but Huang Daozhou seemed to have inherited the revolutionary spirit of a certain party and had long reached the state of being able to put life and death aside for the sake of the belief in his heart. The emperor had already begun to mock him, and he was not afraid and continued to make excuses.
"Emperor, what is loyal? What is a slander? The old minister is loyal and speaks up for justice, is he a slander? Yang Sichang advocates surrendering the country, is he loyal? Those who are close to the red and close to the black. The emperor is much closer to the treacherous and treacherous people, and he no longer distinguishes loyalty and treacherous people. He is so confused about the fish! Is this what the wise king does?" Huang Daozhou retorts his teeth.
Qin Yiming was happy to hear and see, and the king and his subjects started to fight and scold him.
Chongzhen had already begun to get angry, and the ministers around him did not dare to say anything. How dare they fight against the emperor directly? They dared to perform those pediatric tricks that were slandering. This Huang Daozhou was indeed a master of Zhu Zi's Neo-Confucianism, and indeed the leader of Donglin. They nodded firmly and expressed their support for Huang Daozhou.
At this time, Chongzhen was already furious and held the armrest of the dragon chair tightly with his hands, his face very ugly. Chongzhen said angrily: "According to the ancestral teachings, those who speak chaotic politics should be killed!"
Chongzhen had already issued a final warning that if he talked about his verbal skills, he was not Huang Daozhou's opponent, so he simply stopped talking.
"Hmph, the heaven can be seen. I, Huang Daozhou, are loyal to the country and are loyal to the emperor. Throughout history, all wise rulers know that they are loyal to the wise ministers and stay away from villains. The emperor insists on beheading me, so I will kill you!" Huang Daozhou became even more arrogant, looking like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
Chongzhen really wanted to kill this foul scholar who was ignorant, but he didn't dare to do so, not because he was afraid of being a fool, but because Huang Daozhou, the leader of Donglin and a master of the generation, had too much influence among the scholars and Confucian scholars.
