002 Court Chaos

As the hour of Mao approaches, a trace of dawn has appeared in the sky. Taichang is still lying quietly on the dragon bed, his eyes slightly closed, as if he is asleep.

Two red pills have been eaten, can he survive?

The Ming Dynasty is already in turmoil, is he able to turn the tide?

If it were before, he would definitely not be able to!

Because he used to be like he had no brains and only knew how to be at the mercy of others. He didn't know that someone was harming him when he was about to die.

It's different now. After nearly an hour of fusion, Zhu Taichang's memory has been deeply imprinted in his mind, and he no longer distinguishes each other. Now he seems to have learned his mind, his whole brain has become extremely flexible, his thinking has become extremely meticulous, and his will is many times stronger than before.

More importantly, he mastered the direction of historical development and had a certain understanding of many people and things in the Ming Dynasty later. With these, he could easily figure out many things and solve many problems.

for example:

Why is the Red Pill case so bizarre?

Why do so many people want to harm him?

If it were the case before, he might not even understand it, but now he would understand it after a little thought.

The reason why this Red Pill case is so bizarre and that so many people want to harm him is actually very simple because he was cheated by the Donglin Party!

As soon as he ascended the throne, the Donglin Party proposed to remove the mining tax and tax deliberations, withdraw the eunuch tax envoys, punish corrupt officials, and value honest officials. At that time, he adopted them all without thinking.

Thinking about it now, his brain is indeed a good thing, but unfortunately he didn't use his brain at all.

The removal of mining taxes and taxes, the withdrawal of eunuch taxes, the punishment of corrupt officials, and the emphasis on honest officials are all problems.

Because the eunuch tax was too greedy, they arbitrarily raised the mining tax and taxes, and collected ten or one out of ten, and 90% of the greed, causing all industries to be depressed and complained.

Those corrupt officials are even more abominable. They impose various taxes on the name of the court, which makes the people live in poverty and starve all over the world, and the people are about to rebel.

These proposals of the Donglin Party are superficially for the country and the people, and are selfless.

However, the so-called eunuch tax envoys are all confidants of the eunuchs in the palace, and the so-called corrupt officials are the Qi Chuzhe Party in the court!

The Donglin Party is treating him as an emperor as a gun envoy, using him to eliminate dissidents and seize control of the court!

He was used in such a confusion and fully supported the Donglin Party to clean up the eunuchs in the palace and the Qi Chuzhe Party in the court. The result is conceivable.

Alas, the party fights to harm the country!

It can be said that the reason why the Ming Dynasty perished was because of party struggles and internal struggles. Otherwise, how could Jiannu, with a population of less than one million, be able to overturn the Ming Dynasty with a population of hundreds of millions and replace it.

Now, the emperor, he, is also caught in party struggles and almost became a victim of party struggles. What should I do?

He just thought for a while and his thoughts became clear in an instant.

In fact, the biggest problem at this moment is not in the court, but in the palace.

The reason why he was almost killed was because he did not completely control the entire palace. If he had controlled the entire palace, it would not be so easy for both the Qi Chuzhe Party and the Donglin Party to murder him.

The late emperor Wanli is a very obvious example. You should know that after the dispute over the foundation of the country, Wanli turned against the ministers, and even stopped attending the morning court. There was constant party struggle in the court, but there was nothing wrong with them, because the palace was under the control of others, and the ministers had no choice but to deal with them.

He was fine. After ascending the throne, he only wanted to eliminate bad policies and revitalize the court. He never thought about the affairs of the palace at all. The harem was in control and did not know that it was not known. He pointed the finger at the eunuch in the power of the palace. Isn’t this asking for death?

This will definitely not work. You must first control the entire palace in your own hands, otherwise your life will not be saved and you will not be able to save the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, he opened his eyes slightly and said decisively: "Transfer to Wang An."

Upon hearing this, Wei Chao quickly walked to the door and whispered to the little eunuch on duty.

After a while, Wang An hurriedly walked in and lay on the ground and said respectfully: "I bow to the emperor."

Taichang raised his hand slightly, signaled him to flatten, then looked outside the door carefully, and then asked softly: "Is the people outside reliable?"

Wang An was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "Don't worry, the people in the Ganqing Palace are brought from Ciqing Palace now. They have been with me since childhood to serve the emperor, and there is no problem."

Is there any problem?

Where is Wei Zhongxian?

This guy was in his twenties and entered the palace!

Taichang said with some doubts: "Is there really no problem?"

At this time, we really can't blame him for being suspicious, because there are too many people who want to kill him. If you are not careful, he will die!

When Wang An heard this, he said in surprise: "Master, what's wrong?"

What's wrong with you!

Taichang asked in a low voice: "Do you know that Cui Wensheng and others are trying to murder me?"

ah!

Wang An couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

How could he know that someone wanted to murder the emperor? If he had to know, Cui Wensheng and others would not be able to succeed so easily.

He was stunned for a moment before shook his head in panic and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know."

Alas, Wang An is loyal enough, but he has no scheming and is easily fooled.

Taichang then asked again: "I want to get rid of these disasters, are you sure?"

this!

Wang An was stunned again. He thought about it carefully and then said in shame: "Your Majesty, I am incompetent, I am afraid I can't deal with them."

You should know that there are tens of thousands of eunuchs in the harem, and less than a hundred people can command the movement. Cui Wensheng is the confidant of Concubine Zheng, and Concubine Zheng is the lord of the harem. The eunuchs and palace maids in the harem basically dare not violate Concubine Zheng’s imperial edicts and deal with others. It’s just a joke.

When Taichang heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Alas, Wang An, you are the fourth-rank Sili Superintendent, the largest eunuch in the twenty-fourth prison of the inner palace!

It seems that this guy can't count on it anymore.

He thought about it and asked again: "Who do you think is more reliable?"

Lu Shou is the admiral of the Sili Supervisor Bingbi Dongchang, and Luo Sigong is the commander of the Jinyiwei. Both of them hold heavy troops, and as long as they take one, it will be easy to control the palace.

After hearing this, Wang An thought carefully for a while before he said carefully: "I think Luo Sigong is more reliable, because Lu Shou, like Cui Wensheng, are close people around the concubine."

Damn, it turns out that Cui Wensheng and Lu Shou, the admiral of the East Factory, are in the same group. No wonder this guy dares to drug him unscrupulously.

It seems that I can only use Jinyiwei.

Taichang nodded with a serious face, and then said decisively: "Transfer to Luo Sigong!"

Upon hearing this, Wang An quickly walked towards the door.

Taichang thought about it again, then said to Wei Chao beside him: "You go to the imperial kitchen to order a bowl of rock candy lotus seed soup. The lotus seeds should be cored, and the rock candy should be added more. Remember, you can't say it was what I wanted, just say it was you who wanted it yourself."

He was naturally the clearest about his physical condition. He just got exhausted and took the excitement red pill. The fire was too strong and the oil was almost gone. If he had just drank the bowl of laxatives and pulled it for another time or two, it would probably be over.

If he was at this moment, he would not have died. After all, laxatives and red pills are just for raising fire, not poison. The reason why he was easily killed in history was mainly because he was not prepared. After taking red pills with more powerful firepower after twenty days, he took almost all the energy in his body. As a result, the energy in his body was almost burned. It can be said that the oil was exhausted. Finally, he took some laxatives and consumed all the remaining energy in his body, so he naturally died.

He didn't take the laxative today, and the energy in his body was still a little bit. He just needed to remove the fire, replenish some energy, and then slowly recuperate for a few days.

Lotus seeds are the holy product to remove fire. Rock candies can replenish energy. He should be able to recover by eating a bowl of rock candies lotus seed soup.
