Chapter 506: Invite

"Your Majesty wants to work on the carpenter work for a while?" Wei Zhongxian said with a diligent suggestion in the East Warm Pavilion of the Qing Palace.

Tianqi shook his head and sighed, saying, "How could he have such thoughts now!"

In the second year of Tianqi, it was really a very unsatisfactory year for this emperor who was less than twenty. At the beginning of the year, the Dongliu attacked a large-scale attack. Guangning was captured, and more than 100,000 troops were wiped out. Another group of brave generals who were the deputy generals of the general came to the guerrilla war. Only one place in western Liaoning was left, and the rest of the land was lost. There were only more than 50,000 remaining soldiers and horses in western Liaoning. The whole day was shocked, and people were panicked, and the palace was also very uneasy. At that time, Tianqi was also afraid that the Dongliu took advantage of the situation and narrowed the Guancheng. If Shanhaiguan was not protected, the capital would be really dangerous.

Fortunately, the Eastern Barbarians only left a small number of troops and horses to besiege the Thirteen Mountains, and most of the main forces of the Eight Banners retreated to Liaodong. This also called Tianqi relieved. Then they adjusted the civil and military officials in western Liaoning and allocated military food and food. Sun Chengzong was the candidate of the Liaodong governor whom Tianqi wanted the most... As for the respect of the cabinet department, Tianqi believed that Liao affairs would no longer be worried within a few years. As for when the entire territory of Liaodong could be recovered, Tianqi was very pragmatic and had not thought about this issue yet.

Just after May, the situation in western Liaoning gradually became stable. Tianqi was concerned about more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians from Thirteen Mountains. He would ask eunuchs to pray at the Great Gaohuang Palace every day, and he also prayed in fasting and praying in a simple manner, hoping that God could give mercy to the Ming Dynasty and ask the civil and military officials in the border to do their jobs in a solid manner. The soldiers could inspire blood sincerity and rescue these more than 100,000 people from Thirteen Mountains. At this moment, Wang Xinyi's memorial came from Datong, directly stunned Tianqi!

Wei Zhongxian was about to comfort him again, but he saw that the people from the Silijian brought in several memorials and put them on the top, which was naturally Sun Chengzong.

"Oh, Mr. Sun is here to report." Tianqi sat down before the case and opened Sun Chengzong's memorial to read.

The young emperor looked very focused, and it can even be said to be focused. Unlike later generations who imagined, Tianqi did love to work as carpenters, but just as many people in later generations also had hobbies, Tianqi's hobbies were the same as the otaku who liked to make models in later generations, it was just a pastime for more than ten thousand people.

In the short few years of Emperor's time in the Age of Revelation, there were many records of Emperor Yu Wenhua Palace studying the classics, and there were also many imperial critics who reviewed border affairs. After the mid-term of the Age of Revelation, the emperor became more and more mature in seeing things, and at least about the seventh year of the Age of Revelation, the overall strategic pattern of the Ming Dynasty not only did not deteriorate, but improved. Many people felt that if the Age of Revelation could live to the 17th year of Chongzhen, the emperor would never be able to hang himself in Jingshan, the Ming Dynasty might not have destroyed the country, and the establishment of the enemy would not have been able to gain the world.

As for the so-called Ming Shi in the Donglin Party later, the so-called Ming Shi was destroyed by Wanli and Tianqi, it was a shameless rumor.

Wei Zhongxian stood beside the emperor. At this time, he was very tactful and did not speak. The emperor had trust in him, but Wei Zhongxian knew that this trust could not be squandered at will.

"Mr. Sun is Mr. Sun after all." Tianqi stretched his eyebrows. As soon as he looked halfway, he said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile: "Big partner, Mr. Sun said that Wang was only polite in Jin, and he had no real talent. He asked Mr. Sun to reject his construction of Balipu New City."

Wei Zhongxian quickly said, "Mr. Sun is even smart. Before leaving the capital, I also said this. Wang Zaijin seemed to be able to save national treasury, but in fact, people were uneasy and consumed even more. He could not see this, which was far worse than Mr. Sun."

Tianqi attached the most importance to Sun Chengzong and Wei Zhongxian. He was regarded as the decisive needle of the court by him. When he heard Wei Zhongxian praise Sun Chengzong, Tianqi was also very happy. He smiled and continued to watch Sun Chengzong's memorials.

"Huh..." Tianqi looked at the lines for a few times, and his face changed.

Wei Zhongxian did not dare to speak out, and his heart suddenly became ups and downs.

"Big partner," Tianqi said: "Mr. Sun asked himself to inspect Xuanda again. What do you think?"

Wei Zhongxian said: "Mr. Sun is worried that Xuanda will be unstable and will affect Liao Town?"

Tianqi said with a promise: "The great companion is moving quickly, and I think so too."

Both the master and slave were silent for a while. Sun Chengzong was the established governor of Liaodong. In the future, the governor of Ji Liao might be abolished. The governor of Ji Liao was appointed as the Liao affairs. Tianqi trusted Sun Chengzong's knowledge, character, talent, and ethics. His teacher was the best stable situation in the heart of Emperor Tianqi, and even the best manager to recover the lost land. He was majestic and generous, with enough qualifications, prestige and authority. With Sun Chengzong in Liaodong, Tianqi felt that he could rest assured.

If Xuanda has another problem, it is naturally not a trivial matter. The current Xuanda Governor is not competent, so of course he must replace him. However, there is no suitable candidate in the court now, so Sun Chengzong cannot be transferred to Xuanda? Then who is going to Liaodong? It can't be Wang Zaijin, Wang Xiangqian, or even Zhang Heming's old slut

Tianqi pinched his eyebrows and felt in a dilemma.

Wei Zhongxian did not intend to speak much about this matter. He had already asked someone to investigate this matter very clearly. Zhang Han, a military official who was a businessman, had some strength in Datong. He offended Wang Wenyan because of a trivial matter. Wang Xinyi was demoted. Wang Wenyan then placed Wang Xinyi on the Datong Inspectorate and tried to solve Zhang Han.

In Wei Zhongxian's view, Wang Wenyan, the Donglin think tank, is indeed the same as people say. He is a little clever and is not just a matter of political struggle. Zhang Han's case is just a commander and a businessman. However, Wei Zhongxian knew that Zhang Han was almost the entire Xuanda officialdom, and there was a vague power of the Jin Party in the northwest. When the Jin Party was prosperous, it almost controlled the entire northwest. There was also a very strong force in the court. However, after the mid-Wanli period, the Jin Party lacked flag figures and gradually declined and was replaced by the Donglin Party and Zhejiang Party.

Such things are simply messy and messy. Wei Zhongxian does not intend to get involved. He has been making plans recently and expanding his sphere of influence in the foreign dynasty. The decisive battle with the Donglin Party is not yet at the time, otherwise it would be a good time to take action.

Tianqi was difficult to make a decision for a while, and of course the Silijian and the cabinet also had no opinion. Sun Chengzong's memorial was not written or posted red. Of course, it was kept for Tianqi to make a decision personally.

The next book is Zhang Han’s self-defense memorial.

Tianqi's impression of Zhang Han was not bad at all. It was not easy for a small martial arts official to make an impression of the emperor, not to mention that the emperor had a pretty good impression of Zhang Han.

In Tianqi's heart, Zhang Han should be a very enterprising family. He succeeded in business and could manage the army. He was the kind of shrewd, capable, energetic and ambitious young man.

Wang Xinyi's impeachment was shocked by Tianqi. If it was true, Zhang Han would be a heroic figure, and of course he would not be able to keep such people.

Of course, Tianqi was very interested in Zhang Han's self-defense, so he immediately started reading.

Seeing this, Wei Zhongxian quietly turned around, went to the door of the warm pavilion and ordered someone to add a bowl of tremella lotus seed soup and a little fine palace point.

The emperor did not pay special attention to food. Unlike when Emperor Wanli was there a few years ago, the eunuchs in the palace took turns to take care of the emperor's diet, and tried to be exquisite. Today, the favorite food is hodgepodge, which is some shrimp, swallows, and scallion, and the emperor praised it all the time.

"Big partner," Tianqi raised his head and shouted, "Zhang Han asked to come to Beijing to defend himself."

The emperor had a look of confusion on his face. Zhang Han's method of defense was from the suggestions of Zheng Guochang and Ma Chengen. He did not refute them one by one. Some things could not be refuted. Zhang Han admitted that he had mastered the mining of Lingqiu Mine, but he firmly refuted the accusations of his fishing village and annexing the land of Tianchengwei and Zhenluwei. He had never touched the land of small and medium-sized officers and gentry students in Tianchengwei and Zhenluwei. This is easy to refute. Zhang Han asked the court to send personnel to investigate thoroughly.

In addition, whether he had any illegal affairs in the local area, he also asked the emperor to send a thorough investigation. As for the group training, of course, it was to prepare for border guards. Zhang Han's tone was very honest and sincere, admitting that he had a certain amount of force. At this time, he started from his family background. After Feng Pangong, he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years. Although he was not a general for generations, he was definitely not inferior to those generals. All generals in various places could master a certain amount of strength. Why can't the aristocratic families of officials and gentry not be able to do it?

Tianqi said: "The fact that the group training incident seems to be the most taboo, but what Zhang Han said does not seem to be completely unreasonable. He prepared border guards, the border troops collapsed, and the local garrison was not strict. People like him who were doing business are most taboo about the border instability. After the Ma City was closed, the northern barbarians began to stir up again. Therefore, Zhang Han became a monk to prepare for the group training, and went north to build a fort to defend the border. This matter was also agreed by the court..."

Wei Zhongxian said: "When you see your actions, you will see your heart. Zhang Han said with loyalty, but the court cannot investigate. He still has to say that he has many illegal things, whether the localities are oppressed, whether the officials are controlled by him, whether the former governor Han Qi was assassinated by him, and whether these things are clear about the rest."

Tianqi nodded and said, "What the big companion said is correct. Of course, we must investigate thoroughly. Zhang Han will approve the Zhe Sili first. The court will send personnel to investigate. He will stay at home and then discuss it after it is clear."

Wei Zhongxian was also a little impressed. The emperor's scheming skills became more and more proficient.

If Zhang Han’s affairs were real, it might be a test of his request to enter the capital. If Zhang Han agreed to come, he would not be able to rebel, and he might even directly raise the flag to rebel, which would naturally be detrimental to the overall situation of the court.

If it is found out that it is true, the court will either arrest or deploy troops, and will always reduce the disasters to the minimum extent.

If it is found out that it was Wang Xin's false report, Zhang Han would have nothing to do, or if he was left unmoved by Datong, or if he was summoned to the capital to meet, it would be an edict. There is no need to rush to call this person to the capital at this time.

With the energy of the news channel of He Yusheng in the capital, Sun Chengzong asked to copy the memorial on inspecting Xuanda's affairs, and arrived at Zhang Han's desk two days later after he arrived in Da Nei.

"This old grandson..."

Zhang Han smiled helplessly and shook his head. He didn't expect that this time he would actually call Sun Chengzong!-

Today is my birthday. I went out to have a few drinks in the evening, and I was in advance.
