Chapter 906 Kill it, it's a pity
Qian Sule looked at Wu Zheng and nodded for a long time and said, "Since you have decided, I won't persuade you. Remember, you must not expand this war. You have a shallow foundation. Once this battle fails, your vitality will be greatly damaged and your muscles will not be careless."
"Yes. I remember."
"The second thing is, are you familiar with Chen Zhilin and Chen Mingxia, the chief and deputy envoy of the Qing Dynasty mission this time?"
Wu Zheng shook his head.
"Chen Zhilin, an official from Haining Yan, came from a famous family. He was a Jinshi in Chongzhen for ten years. He had close friends with Donglin, Fushe Qianyi, Wu Weiye, Chen Mingxia and others. This time the court asked me to accompany me, and Qian Qianyi and others were doing a lot of activities below. Chen Zhilin was not lucky. The following year of the Jinshi in high school, his father, Chen Zubao, was dismissed from office and imprisoned after dereliction of duty. Later, he committed suicide by taking poison. He was dismissed from office and never mentioned it. After the Qing army entered the pass, Chen Zhilin was resurrected and served as a bachelor of the secretariat and right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites. Because he was good at engaging in camps, he respectfully called Dorgon the benefactor of the benefactor of the benefactor of the people, and used it to flatter Dorgon to curry favor with Dorgon. Two years ago, he was promoted to the Minister of Rites and the Prince Taibao. At the beginning of this year, he was awarded the Grand Secretary of Hongwen Academy. This person is cunning and cunning, and you should pay attention to the beginning and the ends. "
Wu Zheng said disapprovingly: "It's just a scammer, I'm too lazy to pay attention to him."
"Chen Mingxia just mentioned that he was in the same rank as Chen Zhilin, and he was quite talented in literature. He served as a Hanlin editor and was appointed as a minister of the two ranks of households and military affairs. When Li Zicheng entered the capital, Chen Mingxia failed to commit suicide and surrendered to Dashun and was designated as a follower of the Hongguang Dynasty. After the Qing army entered the pass, Chen Mingxia surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and was recommended by Wang Wenkui, the governor of Baoding, was restored to his post and promoted to the Minister of Personnel. This person can be said to be a slave of the three surnames, with ulterior motives, so he must be guarded."
Wu Zheng scolded: "Birds of a feather. The Ming Dynasty has raised scholars for three hundred years and raised so many ungrateful wolves. No one is better than literati...!"
The words stopped abruptly, and Wu Zheng could not continue to scold him. When he saw Qian Sule's face changed drastically, he rolled his eyes at him.
Wu Zheng defended embarrassedly: "I scolded those traitors who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and they had nothing to do with their father-in-law... Of course, loyal ministers and righteous men like their father-in-law are not listed here."
Qian Sule didn't care too much. He said in a deep voice: "As human beings, people who can die generously are scarce. The Ming Dynasty literati did have some scum, but many were loyal to the country. Without such people, you wouldn't have been here today."
Wu Zheng nodded repeatedly and said, "My father-in-law has taught him a lesson."
"You are a prince. You can determine life and death with just one word or one look. You can't do whatever you want. In the future, the attitude towards the literati of the northern expedition needs to be carefully considered. You should know that not all literati who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty are traitors. The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. With the power of one or several people, it is impossible to save the situation. Doing with the flow is not a crime, and at most it is a mistake."
Wu Zheng nodded in agreement.
Qian Sule sighed, "There are thousands of people in the world, and a person who knows how to read and write is rare. It's a pity to kill them all."
"I remember."
Qian Sule looked at Wu Zheng deeply, "The third thing is that Your Majesty intends to expand the army again, and the oral order is to build an 80,000 new army, totaling 180,000."
Wu Zheng said in surprise: "Does the court have that much money? Even if you have money, you will be able to get 80,000 yuan again. Who will farm and support the 180,000 army?"
"Yes." Qian Sule said sadly, "It's impossible for a man to be strong and powerful... three years of folk career can change a person."
Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "With such a ridiculous will, Huang Daozhou would not stop him?"
"The chief minister has argued with reason, but the financial power is in the hands of His Majesty. Qian Qianyi only knows how to cater to him. Who can stop him?"
Wu Zheng frowned and said, "Where does the money come from?"
Qian Sule glanced at Wu Zheng and said, "You are not the trouble you caused? Where else can you do it... the money house."
Wu Zheng was stunned, then reacted and said in shock: "How dare they touch the depositor's money? This... is it going to dig their own grave?"
"Who said no? Fortunately, this is only known to several important officials in the court. If this is spread, it will be... a big mess again."
Wu Zheng's face suddenly darkened, "I shouldn't have left Qian Qianyi, this messenger... Alas, I blame me, I didn't blame this kid for ascending the throne that day..."
"Random!" Qian Sule roared sternly, "Don't talk about the etiquette of the monarch and ministers for now, but Your Majesty is the common ruler of the world. If you disrespect him, it is equivalent to disrespecting all the ministers of Yixing, including me and yourself. You can raise an army to do things that decree, but you cannot insult Your Majesty! You should be respectful to others, otherwise how can you be a human being?"
Wu Zheng licked his mouth awkwardly and said, "My father-in-law taught me a lesson... I just said I'm just letting go. I won't talk about that kid next time."
Qian Sule snorted and said, "The cause of this is because of you. You have to think of a solution. Otherwise, if you break your trust in the people of the world, it will not only harm the court, but also the credibility of your General's Mansion and the money house under your jurisdiction!"
Wu Zheng agreed that once the money bank loses its credibility, it will be shit and everyone will avoid it.
But the question is, can Wu Zheng take charge?
How to manage the money shop that someone opened collects money and then embezzle it to Jianjun?
Besides, he is the emperor, and Wu Zheng is just a vassal of strength. How can he manage it?
What is the matter of abolishing and rebelling?
Wu Zheng really didn't want to leave at this step. Although there were many Donglins in the Yixing Dynasty, and the remnants of the Fushe Refushe Refusing the Court, there were many loyal and righteous people who truly rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the people in the Donglinshe Refushe may not be all those who harmed the country and the people.
For example, Qian Sule in front of him, Zhang Huangyan and Xia Wanchun under him were actually from Donglin and Fushe.
Once a civil war is destroyed, it will be a matter of both evil and stone. Wu Zheng does not want to bear the reputation of civil war, nor does he want to be a relative to love his enemies. This is like a protracted war that is forced.
I can't, and I don't have time, and the energy to tell which Donglin, Fushe literati are loyal and which one is traitor.
In fact, there is no strict standard for loyalty and treason.
For example, Ma Shiying, is he loyal or traitor? Should he be killed? Wu Zheng has not been able to really distinguish until now.
Wu Zheng discussed with Qian Sule for a long time.
In the end, Wu Zheng asked Qian Sule for help to convince Chen Zilong, who was extremely stubborn.
Although Chen Zilong intends to defect to Wu Zheng, he has never been able to follow Wu Zheng's heart. His ruling philosophy has always been the "elite theory", which is the way to share the world with scholars and officials, and is incompatible with Wu Zheng's "robbing the rich and helping the poor".
How could Wu Zheng use him with confidence?
After being "harassed" by Chen Zilong repeatedly, Wu Zheng gradually lost his patience and kicked him to Jiangnan College to teach. He was temporarily quiet.
