Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 273
Just like the people and officials in other regions, on the side of the capital, from the queen in the palace to the beggars in the city, they never expected that the emperor would be so powerful!

It took only half a year for the imperial conquest, or in other words, the emperor just took the three battalions under the jurisdiction of the Yumajian, walked around the Great Wall, and then went south from Shaanxi, only to Nanyang Mansion, so it was solved by the way The Hetao Tartars, and all the thieves.Basically, it can be said that where the emperor has passed, the enemy has no resistance at all.

At this moment, the people on the capital's side all saw the emperor's brilliance and martial arts, and saw the possibility of recovering Liaodong in the future and taking revenge on Jianlu!If you said you hated those Shanxi merchants before, you probably could only let them vent their anger.The Jianlu, who are the chief culprits, are still at ease in Liaodong. They are immortal, and those relatives who were killed by them will not rest in peace.

As for the civil and military officials, they were all thinking about preparing for the celebration and arranging a grand ceremony to welcome the emperor's triumphant return.Fortunately, this proposal was suppressed by the Queen.

The crown prince supervises the country, but the crown prince is young, so she, the queen, carries a lot of weight in her words.Even if the proposal was proposed to her by the crown prince on behalf of the officials, she did not agree to it in the end.

Because she remembered the emperor's helplessness when he had no money before, and even asked her to leave the palace to set up a textile factory and sell textiles.Although the imperial court has some money now, it was obtained by the Shanxi merchants and others who confiscated their homes. Although she didn't know the details, she could figure it out, and it was probably coming to an end soon.

At that time, she said to the prince: "Guangdong and other provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are waiting for disaster relief, and I don't know how much money will be spent. The existing foundation cannot be spent immediately!"

"However, this is the first time Royal Father has set off on an expedition, and he has achieved such a great victory!" The prince said a little unconvinced, "The master said, this is the dignity of the father, and the wishes of the sons, how can we just deal with it?" thing?"

When Queen Zhou heard this, she couldn't help frowning, and asked him, "Which master?"

Seeing that something was wrong, the prince was a little timid.

Regarding this queen mother, he knew that he was usually very kind and doted on him, but when the queen mother frowned, it meant that she was going to get angry. When the truth comes out, just being annoyed, you will be annoyed to death.

Therefore, the prince rolled his eyes and said again: "Queen, can't everyone in the capital use the bank notes now? If you are worried about running out of money, you can print more, so that you will have money!"

Queen Zhou was taken aback when she heard this, and felt that what the prince said made sense, for such a piece of paper, it would not cost much to print more.However, after thinking about it for a while, she shook her head and said, "It was created by your father himself, and there is a lot of knowledge in it. If you don't get your father's consent, it's better not to touch it. You might as well Go ask Shoufu for advice, or get a better understanding of the situation."

"Just that Manzi Xue?" Upon hearing this, the prince said with disdain, "What can he know? He just knows how to mess around..."

"Huh?" Empress Zhou snorted when she heard it, her dissatisfaction was immediately apparent, and she asked in a stern tone, "Where did you hear that? Xue Shoufu is your father's minister, the head of all officials, How can you insult me?"

Empress Zhou has always held herself to the strictest etiquette. Of course, she also attaches great importance to this etiquette for her biological son, the current prince.When she heard that her son was calling the chief minister of the dynasty by a nickname that was insulting, she became angry.

Seeing his mother going mad, the prince immediately panicked and pleaded guilty.Because he knew that as long as he used this trick, his mother would naturally not punish him.

Sure enough, when Empress Zhou saw that her son had admitted his mistake, she was no longer angry. She just taught her son that he must learn more and ask more questions, so that he could be a promising king like his father.

Just like that, the proposal to spend money on a grand welcome ceremony ended up being aborted.However, these things that happened in the palace were secretly reported to Wang Cheng'en, the admiral of the East Factory.

He was not as good as the cunning Cao Huachun. He didn't pay special attention to this matter. He just recorded it in the record and prepared to report it to the emperor later.

This episode did not affect the festive atmosphere in the capital, and everyone was looking forward to the day when the emperor made his triumphant return.

At the same time, in the Shengjing Palace, Huang Taiji heard a piece of news that made him unhappy.

Fan Wencheng reported to him that the dispatcher contacted the Ming country before, and wanted to use King De as a mediator to seek benefits, but as expected, the Ming country directly beat him back.It is said that this matter was not reported at all. It was said that if the Emperor Ming was captured, there would be no possibility of exchanging favors, not to mention that he was just a feudal lord now.

Seeing that Huang Taiji was a little unhappy, Fan Wencheng persuaded him: "Master, Ming Yingzong was captured by Mongolia first, and he originally thought that the emperor would use it as a threat to force Ming to agree to their conditions. Without thinking too much, I directly established another emperor. With such a precedent, it is not surprising that they do not agree!"

Hearing this, Huang Taiji was still unhappy.It's like he thought he was holding a pair of king bombs in his hand, but the rule of playing cards is that kings can't bomb!One can imagine this feeling.

Therefore, I heard him say a little unhappy: "Then why did you propose to tell the Ming Dynasty about this?"

"My slave thought it might be possible? Give it a try, but after all, it's just a matter of sending someone to contact you. If it works, Qing Dynasty will make money!" Fan Wencheng quickly explained, then sighed and said, " Unexpectedly, the Ming Dynasty did not agree, and this can be regarded as a test of the official attitude of the Ming Dynasty."

This makes sense. After all, Huang Taiji is Huang Taiji, one of the wisest emperors of the Qing Dynasty. After thinking about it, he didn’t care about it. However, he felt a little unwilling to do so, so he said to himself: "I didn’t expect that tomorrow. The value of the vassal king is not as good as my Qing Dynasty’s Gushan Ezhen! If I can exchange for a thousand war horses, that’s great too!”

As soon as Fan Wencheng heard it, he knew that Huang Taiji could not take advantage of it, and he still felt a little resentful in his heart.Thinking of this, he wanted to explain it again, and said rightly: "Master, although Turge and the others only have a hundred people, they are all from my Manchurian tribe. The reason why our Qing Dynasty is still living in Liaodong, and Isn’t it the prosperous Central Plains area, is it because the fighting power is not as good as the Ming country? No! It’s because of the underpopulation! Therefore, the slaves thought that the Ming country actually made a mistake and would return it to my Manchurians. In this way, my Manchurians only need It’s still there, even if I gave Ming a thousand war horses this time, I’ll grab it back next time. There’s a saying that keeps the green hills alive without worrying about firewood! That’s what it means!”

After hearing this, Huang Taiji thought about it, and it seemed to be true.If he is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he must focus on the weakness of the Manchurians, and keep fighting. In this way, the national power of the Qing Dynasty cannot be strong, even if more people are plundered from the Ming Dynasty, but if If there are not enough Manchurians, how can they coerce other ethnic groups!

Thinking of this, he approved of Fan Wencheng's explanation, and nodded with a smile: "Fan Qing is right, if that's the case, just change it!"

Just as he was talking here, there was suddenly the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and a man in a yellow jacket stepped in, reporting to Huang Taiji: "Master, Gushan Erzhen Turge with a white banner is back, and is waiting for an audience outside the hall."

When Huang Taiji heard this, he was a little surprised. He came back just as soon as he was mentioned?But counting the time, it seems that it should be back long ago, right?

He wanted to know Turge's situation very much, so he immediately issued an order: "Send Turge to see him!"

After a while, Turge hurried into the main hall, swayed his sleeves and knelt down, and said excitedly: "Master, this slave is incompetent, I am ashamed of the Qing Dynasty!"

Huang Taiji stared at him, and found that Turge seemed to be much older from the face, and he looked like he had gone through hardships. He originally wanted to reprimand him with a sullen face, but think about it, what Fan Wencheng said just now That's right, there are too few Manchurians, each of them is very precious, not to mention, Turge is Gushan Ezhen of Xiangbai Banner, if he is loyal to himself, it will also be good for winning over Xiangbai Banner.

Thinking of this, he smiled and wanted to say "just come back".However, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, so he changed his words and said, "Take off your hat!"

At this time, it was already October, and it was already a bit cold in Liaodong.There was nothing wrong with Turg wearing a hat.

Fan Wencheng was a little surprised when he heard it, and after a closer look, he found that there seemed to be something wrong with Turge's head.

Turge was very helpless when he heard Huang Taiji's words. He didn't expect the emperor to be so sharp-eyed that he was discovered.Now there was nothing I could do, so I had to take off my hat.

In the past few months, I was originally bald, but now I have grown some hair. If I touch it with my hands, it may be very knotted.

After taking off his hat, before Huang Taiji could ask any questions, Turger reported with a sense of shame: "After being captured by the Ming Dynasty, the slave was unyielding and was beaten every day. Finally, the Ming Kingdom saw that there was nothing to do with the slave, so he shaved his head bald. Come and humiliate the slave!"

After hearing this, Huang Taiji nodded and said, "What about the other clansmen? They also had their heads shaved like you?"

"Yes, master!" Turger replied hastily upon hearing this.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the person comes back, I will repay the Han Dog ten times in the future!"

Hearing what Huang Taiji said, Turge suddenly cried loudly: "Master, they can't come back!"

Huang Taiji was taken aback for a moment, and quickly asked: "What's going on? Could it be that the Ming Dynasty didn't keep its promise and killed them all?"

Fan Wencheng also heard something strange and listened attentively.

"Master, they were released, but...but the left and right banners of Tumote's troops were united to avenge the slave and others, and the slave refused to listen to his persuasion. As a result, he was ambushed by the Ming army after entering the customs, and the entire army was wiped out." !"

This reason was something he had thought up on the way to Laide.Otherwise, according to the actual situation, it is said that he insisted on entering the pass to rob and take revenge, but fell into the Ming Dynasty's trick and ruined the entire Tumote tribe. Huang Taiji had to kill him.

When Huang Taiji heard it, he couldn't help being taken aback, and hurriedly asked loudly what's going on?

Even Fan Wencheng was quite surprised when he heard it from the sidelines.You know, the Mongols must have entered the customs on horseback.It goes without saying how high this mobility is.Just like that, can the whole army be wiped out?He's a little unbelievable!
Turg knew that he had to pass this test, so he told the whole story.Of course, what shouldn't be said, he will never say.For example, he was caught in the trap, thinking that the emptiness in the Ming Pass was due to him leading the way into the pass to loot, and he didn't say anything about killing him. He just pushed the responsibility to the two commanders, and the Ming army made dumplings.

When he said that when they escaped from the customs, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty led the army and waited there, Huang Taiji showed consternation on his face, turned his head and looked at Fan Wencheng, and both could see the shock in the other's eyes.

After Turge finished speaking, Huang Taiji immediately asked in a deep voice: "You were ambushed at that time, and then you hurriedly climbed the mountain to escape, did you admit your mistake?"

Although he didn't say clearly who he was mistaken for, Turge knew that when Huang Taiji asked, it must be Emperor Chongzhen.Therefore, he immediately promised: "Master, the slave will never be wrong, dare to guarantee it with the slave's head!"

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty actually led the army out of Beijing, and even went as far as Shaanxi. This kind of courage is really rare among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

If the emperor of the Ming Dynasty really had the courage and ability, this would definitely not be good news for the Qing Dynasty!

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji's face became very ugly. He turned to look at Fan Wencheng and asked this confidant, "What do Fan Qing think?"

In fact, Fan Wencheng has been thinking about this matter since he heard it.Compared with Huang Taiji, it was even more difficult for him to believe that Emperor Chongzhen had such courage and insight. After a quick brainstorm, he suddenly played to Huang Taiji: "Master, I can assure you that there must be an internal response to this matter. Otherwise, I will never Maybe he was ambushed in this way, and when he fled back, he ran into the ambush circle again."

"That's right, I think there must be an internal response. But, who is this internal response?" Huang Taiji said, then turned to look at Turge. He believed that Turge would have more say in this matter.

In fact, Turge thought the same way afterwards, and there was definitely an internal response to this matter.However, who should this person be?Why can't he figure it out?
After much deliberation, he couldn't think of who was the most reasonable internal response.Whether it was his clansmen who were captured together or the people from the Tumote Department, there were some situations that did not make sense.

Hearing Huang Taiji's question at this time, Turge had no choice but to answer truthfully: "Master, this slave is dull, and I can't think of who is the internal response!"

He didn't dare to talk nonsense, because he knew that Huang Taiji was shrewd, and talking nonsense might make mistakes. When Huang Taiji asked, asked, and asked the truth of the matter, he would be unlucky.

Huang Taiji couldn't get an answer, so he frowned even tighter.But at this moment, Fan Wencheng suddenly said, "Master, this servant knows!"
