Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

This time, the little emperor nodded without hesitation.

Li Xiu spoke again, but this time, the words were obviously more solemn: "If you want to, you have to say it."

This time, the little emperor obviously hesitated again, but when he felt Li Xiu's gaze, the little emperor nodded again.

"Take it, let's play."

Li Xiu handed the candied haws to the little emperor, stroked the little emperor's face, and pointed to the children playing under the big tree.

This time, the little emperor hesitated even more. He seemed to have never done this kind of behavior before, and no one taught him.

And everything outside the palace seems to be completely different from inside the palace.

After hesitating for a moment, in the end, the little emperor trotted under the big tree holding the candied haws.

The world of children is simple, but after a while, there is one more child playing under the tree.

A slightly restrained child who is obviously much more mature than other children of the same age.

The guards hidden in the crowd also moved accordingly, and inadvertently, they seemed to have surrounded the big tree.

Li Xiu was sitting at the tea stand by the street, silently watching the playful little emperor.

As the saying goes, three years old is old, and seven years old is old.

Up to now, one can roughly see what the little emperor will grow into in the future.

Maybe it's because of the restraint and repression in the palace, or maybe it's because of being with the mother for a long time.

The little emperor's character is obviously timid, and he strictly abides by the etiquette rules and never goes beyond them.

In this way, you can be a minister, not a king!

How can a king be cowardly!

How can a king abide by the rules!

Such an emperor, to his courtiers, is a prosperous age!As far as the world is concerned, it will undoubtedly be the beginning of a decline.

Fortunately, he is still young, and there is still space and time to reverse it.

But what is certain is that this little emperor can no longer be allowed to stay in the palace for a long time in the space that is bound by countless etiquette rules and grows deformed.

At this thought, Li Xiu couldn't help but shook his head, worrying about state affairs, and even worrying about the growth of the emperor!

As a courtier, he can be regarded as in place.

Time passed bit by bit. In this noisy street, the little emperor played freely for the first time, and Li Xiu also enjoyed this rare free time.

Looking at the bustling people on the street, Li Xiu was also a little dazed. In fact, no matter how drastic the means of reform are, for the people at the lowest level, they will all be subtle, subtle, and change little by little. , the final result does not come out, they are also difficult to detect the slightest.

Even if the reforms are put into practice, the people at the bottom will only benefit for a while.

No matter how good a policy is, it cannot stand the passing of time and the unpredictability of people's hearts.

All kinds of thoughts flowed, and Li Xiu's eyes once again fixed on the little emperor who was playing with a group of children.

His eyes were fascinated, flickering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

This market is leisurely and peaceful, but this world is not calm at all, it can even be said that it is already a scene of turbulence and boiling.

In Shaanxi, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, who had escaped from birth due to the rebellion of Jingluwei, seemed to be growing again in this troubled place.

According to the normal trajectory, the guards in various places were originally responsible for suppression. Under heavy suppression and encirclement, the two bandits escaped for a while, but they could not escape for a lifetime.

But now, with the rectification of Nanjing's Beijing camp, a large number of people have been resigned and beheaded, and the situation has become weird.

The hearts of the people are turbulent, and the morale of the army is also turbulent.

Today, the military system of the Ming Dynasty, recruitment and guards coexist.

Recruit soldiers, receive salaries, and supply food and logistics to the imperial court.

It can be said that it is the mobile force of the Ming Dynasty. Now Li Xiu has hundreds of thousands of troops, all of whom are recruited. It is also one of the capital and confidence that set off this storm.

As for the guards, the army and the people are integrated, serving the people in leisure time and serving as soldiers in wartime. It is the main military force of Ming Dynasty and spread all over the Ming Dynasty. This is also the main target of Li Xiu's reorganization.

The main body of the turmoil in the army is naturally the guard.

Under the corrupt environment, who dares to say that there is no shit under his ass!

Under such circumstances, thieves and bandits looted wantonly, and those who sat and watched were everywhere.

It seems that there are not a few people who are in the same boat!

In the south of the Yangtze River, the public opinion is still boiling. This land of finance and taxation of the Ming Dynasty is already in turmoil, and there are even signs of being out of control...

In Liaodong, the breath of gold and iron horses has gathered, and the front of the soldiers is also pointing directly at Shanhaiguan...

Amidst the turmoil in this world, a surging undercurrent has completely enveloped this dilapidated big ship of Da Ming from the inside out.

Overturning and sinking, it seems that it will only happen overnight...

……

Chapter 278 Execution of Li Xiu, on the side of Qing Emperor!

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

"Get out of the way!"

In the busy city of the capital, several guards in Jinyi looked anxious and galloped on horseback.

Under such a battle, the people on the street were all scared and hid on the side of the street. After the fast horse galloped past, the whole street was like a mess.

As far as the inner city, the Jinyiwei didn't slow down at all, they rode their horses and galloped until in front of the Jinyiwei's yamen, then suddenly got off their horses and galloped swiftly towards the yamen.

The Jinyiwei seemed to have quite high authority, and they passed through many checkpoints without any hindrance, and went straight to the commander's office.

"grown ups!"

Several Jinyi guards flew straight to Li Ruolian, the panic in their expressions was hard to hide.

Seeing the expressions of several people, Li Ruolian frowned, and couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.

After receiving the secret letter from one of the guards in Jinyi, Li Ruolian's expression changed drastically after reading it. Without the slightest hesitation, Li Ruolian got up suddenly and ran straight for the door.

At this time, Li Xiu led the slightly messy little emperor back to the palace.

The little emperor looked up at Li Xiu, and asked with some expectation: "Uncle Li, can I go out of the palace to play next time?"

"can."

Li Xiu nodded: "But it's not on the street. Next time we go out of the palace, let's play somewhere else."

"Is that so..."

The little emperor bit his finger, hesitated for a while, and then said with some confusion: "But just now I said that I want to send something to Er Dan and the others..."

"Uncle Li, you said it, you are not joking..."

"No joke..."

"it is good!"

Li Xiu laughed loudly: "Your Majesty, you should prepare the gift and give it to him next time you leave the palace..."

Speaking of this, Li Xiu's voice stopped abruptly, he turned around slowly, and looked at Li Ruolian who came in a hurry with an ugly expression.

"Duke Qin, something happened!"

Li Xiu didn't say a word, took the envelope from Li Ruolian, took it out and read it, his demeanor suddenly became gloomy.

"This news was urgently sent by a secret agent. The news has been blocked. It should be at least four or five days before the news from over there comes."

Li Ruolian reported slowly.

However, Li Xiu seemed to have never heard of it, his brows were furrowed, obviously thinking about it.

After a while, Li Xiu let out a long breath and said, "Don't block it, let the news spread!"

Speaking of this, Li Xiu showed a cold expression: "Those who should jump out will always jump out, Jin Yiwei, keep your eyes open and watch carefully!"

Li Ruolian's heart trembled when these words came to his ears, and he quickly responded.

"Subordinates obey!"

"Uncle Li, what's the matter, are you angry?"

The little emperor tugged on Li Xiu's clothes in fear.

"It's okay, some clowns, not worth mentioning!"

Li Xiu hugged the little emperor in his arms, but the coldness in his eyes never dissipated at all.

Li Ruolian heaved a sigh of relief when Li Xiu walked away slowly with the little emperor in his arms. Thinking of the information on the letter, his heart couldn't help but tremble again.

This time, something really happened!

……

In May of the first year of Jingwu.

Shaanxi, Jingluwei, joined forces with the bandits Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, raised the banner high, and punished Li Xiu, on the side of the Qing emperor!

There is no doubt that this is a child's play that is not legally correct.

If in the past, it was just to give people in the world a little more talk, after all, two bandits and one rebel, shouting at the side of the Qing emperor, isn't this a big joke!

But for today's undercurrents and turbulent world, the Qing emperor's side of the play here is like a spark falling into a boiling oil pan.

All of a sudden, the world boiled!

Execute Li Xiu, the Qing emperor side!

This slogan also spread throughout the world at an unprecedented speed!

In less than half a month, more than a dozen guards in the northern border of the Ming Dynasty responded to the so-called call from the Qing emperor!

Even Liao Town, which had been rebellious for a long time outside Shanhaiguan, followed suit with the banner of the Qing emperor.

Half of the country, under the three words on the side of Qing Jun, it seems that the smoke of war is everywhere, and the country is in turmoil!

And this is just the beginning!

When the news spread to the south of the Yangtze River, the suppressed undercurrent in this peaceful and prosperous land broke out completely!

The slogan on the side of the Qing emperor also resounded throughout the land of the south of the Yangtze River.

Daming at this moment is like the end of Yuan Dynasty hundreds of years ago.

Mo Daoshi's one eye provoked the rebellion of the Yellow River and the world. In a word, the wars and smokes were everywhere at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the world was in chaos!

And the present Daming is also like this.

It's just that the first strike against the vested interest class falls, the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, all of which are revealed.

Execute Li Xiu, the Qing emperor side!

In just six words, the world is in chaos!

…………

"Unfortunately for the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's principles were lost, the treacherous minister Li Xiu, the majestic king, brought chaos to the harem, slaughtered civil and martial arts, and abused the common people..."

In the Duke of Qin's mansion, Li Xiu held a so-called side payment letter from the Qing emperor, and murmured softly, and the maid beside him turned pale and trembled with fear!

Not to mention the maid, but Li Ruolian standing beside him was even more frightened. In just ten days, the news sent by Jinyiwei spies from all over the world, and the summarized situation in the world almost made him a little scared!

"interesting!"

Li Xiu didn't seem to have the slightest worry at all. With a chuckle and a slight movement of his arm, the document turned into crumbs, dancing with the wind, and finally fell into the wastebasket.

"Tell me what's going on now."

Li Xiu turned around and looked at Li Ruolian beside him.

"Reporting to Duke Qin, seventeen guards in Shaanxi, Sichuan, and Henan responded to the call of the rebels, and most of the remaining rebels in various places also responded to the banner of the rebels..."

"As for Jiangnan, the mutiny has already occurred, and it has spread extremely rapidly. The humble officials have also found out that a large number of merchants and gentry in Jiangnan have frequently contacted..."

"In the capital, there are also many officials who contacted privately..."

After listening to Li Ruolian's report, Li Xiu's expression still didn't seem to fluctuate much, and he simply asked Li Ruolian to step down.

At this time, Li Xiucai set his gaze on the stack of playbooks on the table.

Compared with Li Ruolian's oral report, these memorials from Jinyiwei and other places are undoubtedly much more detailed.
