Mao Wenlong looked at the information carefully.

The information sent back by the intelligence department is very detailed.

Because many things have become known to everyone in the capital of the Ming Dynasty!

According to intelligence records.

On November 1629, .

Yuan Chonghuan arrived in the capital with the Guanning Cavalry.

Since Emperor Chongzhen issued an imperial decree, the officials and people in the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

I didn't know about this beforehand.

Suddenly, I saw a large army approaching.

This caused panic among most people in the Ming capital.

The result was a panic.

It was learned that it was Yuan Chonghuan who brought his troops back to Beijing in accordance with the order of Emperor Chongzhen.

Then the Ming Dynasty court was in an uproar!

The next day, I went to the morning court.

Han Yu, a senior official in the cabinet, was the first to speak out: "Your Majesty, Yuan Chonghuan brought troops into the capital without any reason. This is tantamount to treason. I implore Your Majesty to order the Guanning Iron Cavalry to return to Liaodong and dismiss Yuan Chonghuan from his post..."

These guys are smart.

He never mentioned the fact that Chongzhen issued an imperial decree.

Instead, all the blame was placed on Yuan Chonghuan.

This avoided direct conflict with Emperor Chongzhen and left room for both sides.

There is still a possibility of easing...

Qian Longxi quickly followed up: "Yuan Chonghuan secretly led his troops into Beijing, disregarding the safety of the Liaodong defense line, disregarding the safety of the capital and Your Majesty.

Such a traitor has no respect for the emperor and no respect for the law. I implore the emperor to put Yuan Chonghuan in prison and punish him..."

Li Biao: "Lord Han and Lord Qian are right. I second your motion. Your Majesty, please put Yuan Chonghuan in prison..."

Hou Xun: "What the three ministers said is correct. I second the motion."

Qian Qianyi: "I second the motion..."

Huang Daozhou: "I second the motion..."

The big boss of the Donglin Party in the court.

Many people came out to demand severe punishment for Yuan Chonghuan.

If Emperor Chongzhen had really severely punished Yuan Chonghuan.

Not only did he suffer a complete defeat in this struggle between the emperor and his ministers, but he also suffered a complete defeat.

What’s worse is that it will discourage others.

——All those who sincerely worked for the emperor were punished. Who would dare to work for Emperor Chongzhen in the future?

The Donglin Party wanted to force Chongzhen.

Become a real loner.

So that other ministers would not dare to support Emperor Chongzhen...

……

Members of the Donglin Party all wanted to kill Yuan Chonghuan.

And what about Yuan Chonghuan himself?

It was like I heard nothing.

Standing in the main hall, his eyes looked at his nose, and his nose looked at his heart, it seemed that all this had nothing to do with him!

The reason why Yuan Chonghuan was so calm.

Because he had anticipated this situation.

He had also discussed countermeasures in advance with Emperor Chongzhen, Wang Huazhen and others.

So he doesn't need to speak at this time.

Just wait and see what happens...

……

The more Emperor Chongzhen, sitting on the dragon throne, listened, the more he listened.

The more anger you have in your heart, the harder it is to suppress.

I clearly know that it was his order.

I also know that it was the cabinet and the senior officials of the six ministries who disagreed.

Emperor Chongzhen issued the decree only when he had no other choice.

As a result, these guys are now pretending to be confused.

As for Chongzhen's imperial decree, it was as if it had never happened.

However, many people demanded that Yuan Chonghuan be imprisoned and tried.

Emperor Chongzhen felt that this was a slap in the face!

He didn't take the emperor seriously at all.

Therefore, it was impossible for Emperor Chongzhen to let them have their way.

So Emperor Chongzhen shouted in a deep voice: "Wang Chengen."

Wang Chengen: "I am here, please give me your instructions, Your Majesty..."

Then Emperor Chongzhen nodded to Wang Chengen.

The civil and military officials in the court saw Wang Chengen slowly take out a few pieces of paper.

Followed by.

Wang Chengen began to read the contents of the paper: "The cabinet chief Han Yu, on a certain day of a certain month in the first year of Chongzhen, accepted a bribe of 9 taels of silver from his subordinate Qian Qianyi. Then on a certain day of a certain month in the first year of Chongzhen, he accepted a bribe of taels of silver from Yuan Chonghuan...

On June 6, the first year of Chongzhen, Qian Longxi, a cabinet minister, accepted a bribe of 19 taels from Kong Moumou, and on March , the second year of Chongzhen, he accepted a bribe of taels from Wang Moumou...

Li Biao, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, accepted bribes, formed a clique for personal gain, and committed many illegal acts...

Hou Xun, a member of the Donglin Party, was corrupt and perverted the law, taking bribes... Qian Qianyi deceived his superiors and subordinates, and embezzled the military pay of the border troops... Huang Daozhou accepted bribes, formed a clique for personal gain, and allowed his family to occupy land, killing local people..."

As Wang Chengen's voice continued to sound.

An official who jumped out in court to embarrass Chongzhen.

A bunch of charges were laid out against them all.

More importantly, all those charges are true...

The bigwigs in the court.

They were all caught off guard by Chongzhen's move.

However, there are people who have been able to work hard in the court for so many years and climb to a high position step by step.

No one is simple.

After a brief panic.

Han Yu said: "I am an honest official. These charges are all fabricated. I am not afraid of being framed.

Wang Chengen, the eunuch, wronged the old minister so much. He must be trying to learn from Wei Zhongxian. He wanted to restore the East Factory in order to achieve his goal of dominating the world and doing whatever he wants.

Your Majesty, please understand clearly that Wang Chengen, this villain, has evil intentions and wants to use this opportunity to restart the East Factory and the Imperial Guards. This is to put Your Majesty in an unjust position..."

Qian Longxi: "Wang Chengen, this eunuch, wants to be the second Wei Zhongxian. Your Majesty, please do not be deceived by him..."

Li Biao: "The eunuch party has brought disaster to the country and the people, disrupted the government, deceived the superiors and subordinates, and did everything they could to achieve their own selfish interests. I implore Your Majesty to see through everything and execute Wang Chengen, the eunuch thief..."

Qian Qianyi: "Everything the three ministers said is true. I second the motion..."

"I second the proposal..."

Many Donglin Party members came out to express their support.

This made Emperor Chongzhen laugh: "Haha! It is only today that I truly understand why Taizu established the Jinyiwei?

At this moment, I deeply understand why the ancestors of the Zhu family set up the East Factory and the West Factory after having the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

With irrefutable evidence before us, you still dare to make excuses! If I hadn't secretly restarted the East Depot, I wouldn't have known what you were doing. I don't know how long I would have been deceived by you.

Good, good, good, what a great court! This country is not my country, but your country; this world is not my world, but your world.

In your eyes, I am nothing but a puppet! You are deceiving the emperor and should be punished. Wang Chengen, put all these criminals in jail and punish them. Also, annihilate their clans..."

Wang Chengen: "I obey your order..."

Then at Wang Chengen's signal.

People from the East Depot rushed into the hall.

Han Yu, Qian Longxi, Li Biao, Qian Qianyi and others were brought in.

He took off his official hat on the spot and dragged him away like a dead dog...

……

The court became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

No one dared to jump out and get into trouble at this time.

Because the East Factory has been restarted and evidence of corruption and bribery against Han Yu, Qian Longxi, Li Biao and others has been found.

Then relying on the ability of the East Factory.

Naturally, evidence of other ministers' crimes can also be found.

So whoever dares to jump out at this time is simply courting death...

……

See the civil and military officials in the court.

No one said a word.

Emperor Chongzhen also ordered: "Order Yuan Chonghuan to transfer 3000 elite soldiers to make up for the shortage of Jinyiwei. Yuan Chonghuan's general Zhang Guobing will temporarily take over the post of Jinyiwei commander..."

Yuan Chonghuan: "Your Majesty is wise and wise. I will obey your orders."

Zhang Guobing: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Chongzhen not only restarted the East Factory, but also directly reopened the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

But the civil and military officials in the court.

Still no one dared to say a word.

So after the shouts of "Report what you need if you have anything to report, and adjourn the court if you don't."

Finally, this thrilling morning court session came to an end...

……

……

……

Thanks to the big guy "Gu Tang who loves eating shrimp mushrooms" for the reward of Bobo milk tea.
