3 To resist foreigners, you must first be safe

First, although Cao Huachun was considered the most confidant by Emperor Chongzhen, it is obvious that Cao Huachun had his own ideas and would not necessarily fully understand the meaning of Emperor Chongzhen and do it according to the intentions of Emperor Chongzhen.

Second, Cao Huachun was collecting money on his back, and it was not just a small matter, but even the money of the cabinet ministers. It can be seen that it is probably because of the money of other civil officials in the court that they have collected a lot of money.

Third, Cao Huachun, who has his own power, can control the extent to which he does something that obviously goes against the will of Emperor Chongzhen, but no one will expose it.

In short, Cao Huachun used his existing power to make money and do things, regardless of whether this matter would be harmful to the Ming Dynasty? Is it against the wishes of Emperor Chongzhen? Or, he didn't think that this matter would be sorry for Emperor Chongzhen's trust in him, and he felt that it was nothing to do so!

Those who are officials are for money, but can’t those who are eunuchs be money?

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen also heard a little relief from his conversation, that was, there was a piece of stinky shit in the cabinet. However, Emperor Chongzhen did not immediately believe whether that Xue Manzi was stinky shit. He decided that he had to try it himself before he knew.

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking this way, and suddenly a "ding" sounded, and the system prompted that the unpredictable task of the people's hearts had been completed, and the system rewarded a Class C eavesdropping seed.

Subsequently, another new task shows: Being an emperor is a science, how to ensure the interests of the emperor in the interests of complex relationships. This is what a wise emperor must learn to face, and it is also the premise for revitalizing the Ming Dynasty. It perfectly solves the Cao Huachun incident, rewards a Class A eavesdropping seed, better solves the Cao Huachun incident, rewards a Class B eavesdropping seed, generally solves the Cao Huachun incident, rewards a Class C eavesdropping seed, and recklessly solves the Cao Huachun incident, causing adverse consequences, without any reward. Are you accepted?

Emperor Chongzhen chose to accept without hesitation, and immediately began to consider how to deal with Cao Huachun's affairs. The system gave such a task, which was obviously to remind himself to handle Cao Huachun's affairs carefully.

Thinking about it, when he said what Taizu fell into his dream, Cao Huachun had not come in yet, but when he walked out of the hall, an eunuch immediately told the situation in the hall. This shows that Cao Huachun's power is so great.

Originally, Emperor Chongzhen didn't think anything, because he wanted everyone to know what happened in the hall. But now, since he wanted to deal with Cao Huachun, he had to care and he had to pay enough attention.

After all, it is possible that Cao Huachun would not have the intention to do what Emperor Chongzhen would do at this time. However, if Emperor Chongzhen recklessly dealt with Cao Huachun next, if there was a desperate situation, then who would know what Cao Huachun would do?

The system has already prompted things that are unpredictable to people. In my previous life, I have heard of people who lose their minds and kill people when they are angry or angry. Not only for better system rewards, but even if you have to be responsible for your own safety, you must handle this matter properly.

When Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about this, there was another movement on Cao Huachun. He clicked and saw that it was Cao Huachun who went to the cabinet to deliver oral instructions. From the dialogue, it seemed that Yang Sichang was the only one in the cabinet. Obviously, Cao Huachun's advance notice asked Yang Sichang to send two other assistant ministers. At this time, Yang Sichang represented the cabinet and refused to draft an order and requested to see the emperor.

Seeing this information, Emperor Chongzhen sneered, since you want to see him, come on! Lu Xiangsheng, I have saved him!

Thinking of this in his heart, he first considered what to say when summoning Yang Sichang later. I have to say that with this eavesdropping system, many things can be prepared for the future, which is really useful!

Not long after, Cao Huachun came back in a hurry, and his face seemed a little ugly, saying that the cabinet would not be summoned, and the assistant minister Yang Sichang asked to meet the emperor.

Looking at Cao Huachun, Emperor Chongzhen had to sigh that life is like a play, and everyone in the palace is full of good actors. If you don’t know, look at his face, you would think it has nothing to do with him!

Immediately, Emperor Chongzhen also started acting, and he remained silent. He pretended not to know that Cao Huachun had colluded with Yang Sichang in advance, so he immediately issued an order to set up the Wenhua Palace and summon Yang Sichang to meet him.

Not long after, in Wenhua Hall, Yang Sichang immediately spoke in an anxious tone after seeing the ceremony: "It's not that I am unwilling to be called! Your Majesty, Mr. Lu is strongly advocating the war. If all the troops and horses in the world are under his command, he will fight to the death with Jianlu. If all Jianlu are destroyed, it would be fine if he can restore Liaodong! But I'm afraid that many Jianlu were killed and injured by the pass, but he was unable to win in the end. In this way, he will definitely anger Huang Taiji and thus end the hope of peace. Please be careful of this matter!"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he sneered: "You say that the sun eclipses of Mars in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu of Han discussed peace with the Southern Xiongnu; the moon eclipses of Yinghu during the Song Dynasty, and the Song army launched troops to attack Liao and was defeated. But I want to tell you that Taizu fell into a dream and said that I did not change, and the country was in danger! Let me tell you, is the past event of the previous dynasty or is it the dream of Taizu?"

What he said about the past dynasty was actually the historical basis for Yang Sichang to give a memorial to Emperor Chongzhen before explaining his strategy of "to resolute the country first to fight against foreign countries", which was used to prove that his peace talks were the right historical basis.

Listening to these words, Cao Huachun, who was serving the side, looked at his nose and his heart, and remained motionless, like a clay bodhisattva. But in his heart, he began to seriously think about the matter of Taizu entrusting his dreams. Judging from the emperor's attitude, the emperor took this matter seriously.

The ancients believed that there were ghosts and gods, and even more that they believed that their ancestors showed their spirits. When Emperor Chongzhen emphasized that Taizu was in a dream, Yang Sichang immediately changed his face and knew that it was not because of someone else's advice, but because Taizu fell into a dream, the emperor had repeated the matter of peace talks.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly became stern and shouted to Yang Sichang: "I have figured it out that it is better to settle the country first when fighting foreign countries, but this is just wishful thinking. I come to ask you, if you are the Emperor Taiji of Jianlu, you really want to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty? If you want to negotiate, how much is the price? Should I become a son emperor or cede land to Jianlu? Jianlu is already in great power. Do you still need me to offer benefits with both hands and continue to strengthen Jianlu?"

Hearing these words, Yang Sichang's khan came down immediately. He quickly defended: "Your Majesty, I endured a temporary humiliation. When I settled down in the country and slept with firewood and gall, my Ming Dynasty would one day be able to destroy Jianlu. In the past, Altan Khan was also a compromise between the court and he would only stop his wars when he opened a border market!"

"Hahaha..." Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and smiled so hard that Yang Sichang lowered his head, and the sweat kept dripping down. For some reason, at this time, he felt pressure that he had never felt before. He felt that Emperor Chongzhen was very strong at this time, like the midsummer sun, which made people dare not look up.

Even Cao Huachun, who was like a clay Buddha beside him, could not help but look at Emperor Chongzhen secretly, feeling a little frightened. He suddenly felt that the familiar emperor in front of him seemed a little unfamiliar. His words were sharp, like swords and guns, and they could not be regarded as sharp!

Suddenly, Emperor Chongzhen cried out with a laugh and shouted at Yang Sichang: "It's a pity that you are famous for your intelligence. Do you know that any alliance under the city is meaningful? During the Jiajing period, when the border city was opened, Altan Khan still violated the border of the Ming Dynasty for many years! Any peace talks can only be won by fighting, at least it will be a basis for peace talks. I am still what I said just now. If you don't understand, then let me explain it clearly..."

At this point, Yang Sichang realized that although it was the middle of winter, his sweat had soaked a large piece of the ground. He couldn't help but wiped his sweat and continued to concentrate and listen quietly.

"I just said, if you were the Emperor Taiji of Jianlu, you knew that the Ming Dynasty was full of bandits, the people's livelihood was declining, and the people were suffering. And his Jianlu army had entered the pass several times without any opponents. In this case, you would be willing to discuss peace with the Ming Dynasty, and then let the Ming Dynasty rectify the internal affairs and become stronger again? If this is the case, you are not worried. Will I tear up the contract and wipe out the Jianlu after I settle down?"

Emperor Chongzhen said this and sneered, then continued: "If Huang Taiji was just a mediocre person, he might only see immediate benefits. If so, as you said, I would not be able to endure humiliation and lie in firewood and taste gall."
