Emperor Tianqi once expected that the arrogant generals and gentry in Jinzhou might collude with them and make some noise.

But they never expected that they would directly take the Gujun into full swing.

These foreign troops were mainly Sichuan Army, Zhejiang Army, and Guangxi Wolf soldiers. A small number were border troops in Gansu. Such people were actually old, weak, sick and disabled, and now they were gone.

Emperor Tianqi did not expect that once these people attacked, they would be so vicious.

So he said, "What are they going to do? Are they going to rebel? Even the guest soldiers are killed. Could it be that my troops have gone, and they want to kill them?"

Zhang Jingyi looked at Emperor Aoki with sympathy.

The answer is self-evident.

Why are you the emperor? Do you know what you think is the son of heaven?

That's because it is in everyone's interests, those people share the world with you.

Now that the interests are gone, you are blocking the way for others to make money. You have to check the accounts everywhere and pursue the mistakes. Is that so much?

Think about it, how were the so-called power eunuchs in the history of the Ming Dynasty who died without a burial place?

Let’s talk about Liu Jin, and he also made a new policy. The biggest content of this new policy is to popularize Beijing inspection!

The so-called Beijing inspection was originally conducted once every three years to see if the officials were qualified and were dismissed. Liu Jin felt that these systems were available, but it seemed that everyone was in the form of the situation. For dozens or hundreds of years, few officials were dismissed because of the Beijing inspection.

He then decided to shorten the age and acted seriously. At this moment, the heavens were angry and people resented. Everyone fought with Liu Jin to fight to the death, and found the eunuchs who had a grudge against Liu Jin in the palace, and whether he was me or not, so... Liu Jin was lingchi.

After that, Emperor Wuzong of Ming Dynasty died inexplicably and was too strange.

Zhang Jingyi finally told the truth in his heart: "Your Majesty, I think this matter is really possible. These people are crazy and dare to do anything."

Emperor Tianqi still knows how to reflect. After careful consideration, he will be true.

He became even more furious.

So he said angrily: "They want to rebel, will the soldiers follow them?"

Zhang Jingyi felt that Emperor Tianqi was still simple sometimes, so he said, "Your Majesty, I have never heard of rebelling. Even Emperor Taizu Gao proposed to expel the Tartars, Emperor Chengzu also fought the Fengtian Jingnan, and... "

"Don't say it." Emperor Tianqi's face was like a pig's liver.

Zhang Jingyi was speechless for a moment, only blamed himself for knowing little about other history, so he could only name a few of the old Zhu family.

So he continued, "Besides, Your Majesty, is there really an imperial army in Liaodong right now? Any strong officers and soldiers are not the servants and private slaves of the Liao generals, and they share the same woe with the Liao generals? They are all in the same group."

This is the truth. After the rise of Jiannu, it was a carnival for the Liao generals.

First of all, the biggest benefit the Liao generals got was that the officers and soldiers were privatized. To what extent did they privatize?

For example, Wu Xiang, the deputy general of Shanhaiguan who was conspiring to rebel, in history, Wu Sangui's father became the general during the reign of Emperor Chongzhen. Once Emperor Chongzhen asked Wu Xiang... This is a historical record.

The general idea is that Emperor Chongzhen asked Wu Xiang, I will allocate you a year to pay 150,000 military pay, your current army has 100,000 people, right?

Wu Xiang was very direct, and the answer was no.

The two-person Chongzhen asked again, "There is no 100,000, but there are always 50,000 people."

Wu Xiang replied, Your Majesty, I am actually only three thousand servants, and the rest are all old, weak, sick and disabled. However, these three thousand people are treated with brotherly courtesy, so please rest assured that they are all elites and brave and good at fighting. Your Majesty does not have to worry that no one will help you kill the thief, just help me solve the food and salary problem.

Wu Xiang raised 3,000 servants for 150,000 military pay, and the rest... were either a number in the roster or a miscellaneous person.

Wu Xiang’s so-called brotherly ritual is actually transferring the household registration of these 3,000 people to his own home, and Wu Xiang is a family with him.

This is also why, in history, the Jiannu people loved to surrender Liao generals, and they often gave great courtesy. Otherwise, why would Wu Sangui be crowned king?

Is it really because Wu Sangui is a famous general who is not born in the world? It’s just that as long as Wu Sangui surrenders, he can immediately bring a team to the Jiannu people, and they all spent Emperor Chongzhen’s military pay. They received several military pay per person, and they all had a big head and ears, fat and strong body, and they all followed Wu Sangui wholeheartedly! As for the court, what the court is, they are taking advantage of the Wu family.

The so-called Liao generals from Liaodong are actually warlords of all sizes. Wu Xiang is like this, and others are even more like this.

Emperor Tianqi showed a look of disgust and said angrily: "Didn't you ask Yuan Chonghuan to investigate the private soldiers? Why are you still emerging now?"

Zhang Jingyi smiled bitterly and said, "I checked halfway, and the noise was very loud, and I couldn't continue to investigate. If I checked again, all the towns in Liaodong would go to Jiannu."

Emperor Tianqi gritted his teeth and said, "It's really worse than a pig or a dog. I thought that if I checked it, the matter would be over! I didn't expect that so much evidence was conclusive, but I couldn't find it! It can be seen that these people... have reached the point where they can't tell me seriously."

In fact, Zhang Jingyi knew about the Liaodong incident. Yuan Chonghuan worked very hard and indeed investigated and dealt with many people. Many of them were dismissed from office because of this, and there were fewer previous chaos, which was somewhat of a warning to others.

But it is precisely because private soldiers and servants are popular that you are just a servant, and it is useless to justify others. Those servants immediately start to mess with soldiers, and the newly appointed military officers cannot control them at all.

The final result was to give a compromise. The Zhang family's eldest son was dismissed from office and asked the Zhang family to take over a key position in the camp. On the surface, it was to assist the general, but in fact, the general had long been undermined.

After Emperor Tianqi cursed, his eyes fell on the person who came to report the news.

In fact, it would be fine if this person didn't say it, after all, it had been hidden in the cesspool for several days. The problem is that he even said it, so that Emperor Aoki felt sympathy for his experience, but he just felt it was strange, as if his big tent had become less clean.

But at this time he was calm, so he continued to ask: "How many people do they have?"

"I don't know that there are many of them. Although I dare not say that the cavalry in the city came out in full swing, at least half of them were out. They didn't seem to want to leave a living mouth. Not only were there people rushing to kill, but there were also people on the periphery who were on guard. After the killing, all the bodies were burned and they hid in a humble manner..."

"Okay, I know where you are hiding." Emperor Aoki glared at him and said, "Do you recognize who is the leader?"

"I don't know this."

Emperor Tianqi said, "Don't worry, I will make the decision for you. They will kill you one, and I will kill ten of them. You can rest well and follow me. Come and take him to wash, change him into a new suit, let him eat and drink, and take good care of him."

The man cried again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Aoki was really angry.

So much so that he fell down and locked himself in a big tent alone, and no one saw him.

But the next day, before the hour of Mao came, he ordered to continue his journey, riding alone on a horse without paying attention to anyone he saw.

Zhang Jing wanted to go up to report the military situation several times, but Emperor Tianqi just kept silent.

This is the first time Zhang Jingyi has seen Emperor Tianqi like this.

To be honest, even ordinary people are afraid that they will be furious if they are bullied to this point.

Raise men for people. If these people raise men, turn their heads and kill your people, or even make bad plans, is this what people do?

What's more, Emperor Tianqi is still the emperor.

This was the case for two consecutive days.

On the morning of the third day, Emperor Tianqi actually came to wake Zhang Jingyi up in person.

"stand up."

Zhang Jingyi was sleeping with a military coat. There were crises everywhere in Liaodong. Who knew if there would be an enemy attack. When he saw Emperor Tianqi, he saw Emperor Tianqi becoming much more haggard.

But at this moment, a strange look shining in his eyes, and then Emperor Tianqi said, "I have figured it out."

Zhang Jing stood up and said, "What did Your Majesty understand?"

Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "The emperor and ministers are all lies. The reason why these people still praise me is not because they have made some kindness, but because they are still counting on me to plunder them in the pass!"

"Since I have deceived me, how can I let them slaughter? Since I have failed to inspect their illegal affairs, I will simply... I will not regard myself as the emperor. They are not things. I am better than them. If they deceive me, I will let them know my methods."

Zhang Jingyi felt that Emperor Tianqi was full of murderous aura at this time.

This is a kind of...the breath of the mountain king.

...

Yuan Chonghuan was already in shackles at this time, not only that, but also wearing shackles.

The heavy wooden shackle made his neck almost unable to lift, and he could only curl up and hide in the corner of the cell.

At this time, he probably understood something. After all, he was not Man Gui, so... Yuan Chonghuan was worried, and he had already had a premonition that something bad happened.

Clang, the door of the cell suddenly opened at this moment.

An old man walked into the dim cell with his hands behind his back.

The old man sighed and said, "Mr. Yuan, you are wronged."

"You...you..." Yuan Chonghuan glared at the old man furiously and said, "How dare you forge an edict? Do you know, how big a crime is this? Are you really determined?"

But the old man smiled and said, "What if I tell you, is this edict true?"

"What?"

Yuan Chonghuan was stunned.

"There is no real edict. Do you think that everyone in Jinzhou City is really willing to do this? Mr. Yuan, everyone is smart. Do you think that a person who is so cautious will be so bold?"
