Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

The rising green smoke enveloped the entire hall, making it even more sacred and solemn.Chongzhen also began to carefully look at the main hall of the Martyr's Shrine.

Behind the statue of Yue Wumu stands a tall signboard, engraved with the handwritten words of Emperor Chongzhen: Since Yanhuang, all heroes who sacrificed their lives for China will be immortal!

Further to the back, there are tablets one by one, layer upon layer, even the number cannot be counted.Some of them had their names engraved on them, and more of them didn't even have their names on them, only the words of so-and-so and so-and-so's place.

On the surrounding walls, there are many murals, among which are the stories about Yun Chang's defeat in Maicheng, Yang Zaixing's bloody battle against Xiaoshang River, and twelve gold medals to return to Yue Fei.

In the back is the scene of a deadly battle between Tong Zhonggui and other generals of the Ming Dynasty and Jiannu Nurhachi.

At the end, it was the scene of Wang Xuanji sitting on the horse and launching a desperate charge against Jiannu and others.

Chongzhen went from Guan Yunchang's defeat to Maicheng at the beginning, and looked at it one by one until the last portrait of Wang Xuanji.

But Chongzhen couldn't help reaching out to touch the portrait, thinking in his mind whether it was worth it or not to use these Jin Yiwei to capture Fan Wencheng, that dog traitor?

Thinking about the way Wang Xuanji knelt in front of him and vowed to capture Fan Wencheng alive, Chongzhen's eyes couldn't help but get wet.

Touching the wall painting with his hand, Chongzhen suddenly shouted loudly, "Heroic spirit! Come back! Heroic spirit! Come back!"

After shouting, the tears in his eyes could not be held back anymore, and Dou Dadi's tears rolled down one by one.

The civil officials behind him didn't react much, but felt that Chongzhen's play was too much.

But the generals, such as Man Gui, Ma Xianglin and others, heard the heartache for the soldiers who died in the battle from the roar of returning, and empathized with them, the eyes of the generals were red, Choked up speechless.

It wasn't until Meng Shaoyu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites came to remind him that Chongzhen wiped away his tears and continued to pay homage to the heroic spirits in the Martyrs' Shrine.

After the tedious memorial ceremony was over, Chongzhen led all the civil and military officials out of the Martyr's Shrine.

At this time, the large open space between the Martyr's Shrine and the memorial archway was already crowded with people. Only the place left for Chongzhen and Baiguan to walk was separated by the soldiers of Wucheng Bingmasi with a human wall. open.

When the crowd saw Chongzhen coming out of the Martyr's Shrine, they all knelt down and shouted long live.

Chongzhen went and said: "Let's all be flattened.

This martyr's shrine was originally the place where heroic spirits were enshrined.Since then, all those who sacrificed their lives for the country, regardless of civil or military, or high or low official positions, will be enshrined in the Hall of Martyrs, so that the heroes can enjoy blood.

No matter who is here today, including me, or our children and grandchildren, we should not forget who gave us a stable life.

Please everyone remember that in this world, killings happen every day, and it is these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, who use their flesh and blood to keep the killings out of the country! "

Chapter 79 Family Banquet

After finishing his sonorous and forceful words, Chongzhen continued: "In front of the gate of this hall, there are a total of twelve kneeling statues, among them is the Bank of China, Qin Hui, and even that traitorous traitor Fan Wencheng!

I am not afraid of being written as a tyrant by history.I will tell you today that Fan Wencheng has been cast into this kneeling statue with molten iron by the people I ordered, thinking that the traitors in the future will be a warning! "

After some sonorous and forceful words, Chongzhen led all the civil and military officials to leave.

It's just that after Chongzhen left, among the people left behind, it was as if water had been poured into a boiling oil pan, and it boiled instantly.

The crowd was whispering and discussing non-stop, but there were a few people whose faces were unusual.

A man with a strange appearance was the same man who had slapped a scholar in the Xuan Mansion before. He led a six or seven-year-old child by his side, and said to the child, "Come on, let's go home, pack up and go to Liaodong."

The child was alert, and whispered: "Father, aren't we going to prepare for that?"

The man said: "No. The Son of Heaven is a man who loves the people, and he deserves his Zhu family for thousands of years. Let's call on our superiors to go to Liaodong to vote for Mao Wenlong. It's the same for fighting for a background in the army."

The child was quite sensible, so he didn't ask any more questions after hearing the words, but just nodded and left with the man.

There were two other people, a scholar and a strong man, but their eyes were fixed on Fan Wencheng's kneeling statue. One of them gritted his teeth and said, "Go, let's go back!"

After speaking, instead of spitting at those kneeling statues like other common people, the two turned around together, squeezed out the crowd, and went straight back to the inn.

After arriving at the inn, the Confucian scholar whispered to the brawny man, "You don't need to look for it this time. Mr. Fan is already kneeling in the Martyr's Shrine. You and I will return to Liaodong and report to the Great Khan."

But the man took a sip, lowered his voice and cursed: "You fucking barbarian emperor! He is so cruel! I will be reprimanded by the sweat when I go back."

The Confucian scholar laughed and said, "Isn't that right? This kind of tyrant is bound to be unpopular with the people. When my big gold soldiers enter the customs, I'm afraid the people will eat pots of milk to welcome the king's teacher."

The brawny man hummed, but in his heart he scolded this lowly kind of dog, who is my big gold, my big gold with everyone, you need to know that this big gold belongs to us, but it is not a Chinese dog like you of!

Although they cursed secretly in their hearts, they didn't show it on the surface, and the two began to pack their things, preparing to leave the capital and return to Liaodong.

Even when these people with different thoughts went off to work separately, Emperor Chongzhen returned to the Forbidden City to take a bath, recharge his energy, and prepare for the "family banquet" in the evening.

Until the evening, the vassal kings from all over the country came to the palace.The concubines of the vassal kings were all received by Empress Zhang of Emperor Tianqi and Empress Zhou of Emperor Chongzhen, and the vassal kings accompanied Chongzhen to have a banquet together.

After drinking for three rounds, Chongzhen clapped his hands, and the singing and dancing stopped immediately. After the musicians and all the dancing maids had retreated, Chongzhen signaled to Wang Chengen again.

Only when all the maids and eunuchs in the palace withdrew and Wang Chengen was left alone did Chongzhen look at the feudal lord in the palace.

Many vassal kings thought "Come here", knowing that Chongzhen had something to say, but they didn't know what tricks they would play.

Sure enough, Chongzhen said: "Among the seats, there are my uncles, my brothers, and my nephews.

I, I have something heart-wrenching to say today, and I want to say it.At this moment, there are no outsiders in the palace, no matter what we say, it is our family's business. "

All the vassals were polite, expressing that they would stick around Chongzhen and be good patriotic vassals.

Chongzhen didn't pay attention to it, and just asked: "I have a question in my heart, and I want to ask all my uncles and brothers.

What is the purpose of Emperor Taizu Hongwu enfeoffing the feudal vassals? "

All the vassals looked at each other, and no one could figure out what Chongzhen was thinking.

In fact, according to Zhu Yuanzhang's thinking, the vassal kings everywhere have soldiers and generals, and King Sai was not joking when he said it.

For example, Zhu Di, the ancestor of Ming Dynasty, was one of them before he was in trouble, and was named King of Yan.

In Cai Zhu's thinking, the kings of Sai all over the country have their own side, even if one day the emperor of Daming loses the chain and the country is about to perish, the kings of Sai can be kings.

Even if the kings of Sai became emperors themselves after being kings, wouldn't the meat still rot in the pot?In the end, this world is still the Zhu family's world.

It’s just that Comrade Zhu didn’t expect that not long after his death, Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen, who was limped by the civil servants, was about to abolish the feudal clan. Son snatched it from his hand.

It's just that after Zhu Di became emperor, he thought the same as Emperor Jianwen, thinking that the vassal king should not be too powerful, otherwise he would not be able to sleep well.

The most direct consequence is that the vassal kings from all over the place are treated as pigs, and they can't do other shit except occupying the people's fields and digging corners of the Ming treasury.

They could neither be officials nor lead soldiers. Simply, the vassal kings focused on making villains. As a result, a large part of Ming's treasury was used to raise pigs.

Of course, these vassal kings knew what was going on in their hearts, and some of them didn't want to be pigs for the rest of their lives, but they didn't dare to say it outright, otherwise, would the emperor think that they wanted to learn from Zhu Di, and have a hard time?

Seeing that none of the vassal kings made a sound, they all played the game that silence is the golden land, Chongzhen simply pointed out: "Emperor Taizu Hongwu established the system of vassal kings, and originally wanted all the vassals to defend the court.

But in the former feudal clan, slaves knocked on the pass and besieged the capital. Uncles and brothers, what are you doing? "
