At present, the ministers of the DPRK and China have very strong opinions on Tie Mo. Being able to trap the rogue Li Yangchun's subordinates is definitely one of the few achievements in recent years. However, Tie Mo stepped in and secretly recruited Li Yangchun.
All his reputation was taken away by Tie Mo.
Cheng Jiming immediately organized an impeachment storm with Qian Qianyi and others. This storm involved almost 70% of the officials in the court. It was definitely the largest wave of impeachment since Chongzhen came to power. At midnight on the same day, officials from the six departments gathered in Cheng Jiming
The others led them down to the square in front of the Jinluan Palace. Before the court meeting started, there was a huge pressure on people. Hundreds of officials wanted to impeach Tie Mo, and the intensity this time was different from the past. Chongzhen had known about it for a long time.
, but he did nothing, not even discussing it with Hou Shilutong in advance. In the officialdom, civil and military officials were brewing a war without swords and guns, but Chongzhen frowned and thought to himself.
Except for Wang Chengen, everyone in the Imperial Study Room was rushed outside to wait. Zhu Youjian knew very well that this time the officials impeached Tie Mo, there would definitely be a result. If there is no result this time, I am afraid those people will not let it go.
. Similarly, Zhu Youjian also had many opinions about Tie Mo. He didn't even say a word about such a big matter as recruiting people. In Tie Mo's eyes, does he still have Zhu Youjian? As a minister, he could recruit people in private.
, Not reporting to the king was really audacious. It was just a matter of recruiting troops, but Li Yangchun's troops were considered the elite of the rogue bandits. Suddenly, they all became soldiers of the Xuanfu. It was really abominable.
To this day, most people in the DPRK have a consensus, that is, Xuanhua Mansion has long been ruled by Tie Mo alone. The imperial decrees are nonsense when they arrive at Xuanhua Mansion. The generals and officials at all levels there do not pay attention to the court at all, and they all obey
Tie Mo was alone. As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, seeing the power in Tie Mo's hands growing, he was ultimately dissatisfied. This dissatisfaction eventually spread to Hou Shilu, because Tie Mo could be where he is today without Hou Shilu.
Because of this, Zhu Youjian did not meet Hou Shilu even when he knew that the officials wanted to impeach Tie Mo.
Zhu Youjian thought he had reason to be angry, but he ignored a very important point. Does the fact that Xuanhua Mansion is like this have anything to do with Hou Shilu? In fact, when Hou Shilu was still in Xuanfu, Xuanhua Mansion was already like this. Zhu Youjian
Jian was angry, but he didn't want to let Tie Mo's letter go cold, but he had to take this opportunity to give Tie Mo a beating and let him know who was the real master of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Youjian had his own ideas, Hou Shilu
Hou Shilu also had his own helplessness. Hou Shilu, who was in the square, sighed when he saw that most people were not on his side.
The ministers regarded him as an alien, and His Majesty also lacked trust in him. It was really difficult to be in the court. Hou Shilu knew the situation in Xuanhua Mansion better than Zhu Youjian. He had already expected this before leaving Xuanhua Mansion.
This is a situation. Even if he, Hou Shilu, is still the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, what can he do? Li Jiasheng, Hei Yunlong and Ma Fang of the Xuanfu are all close to Tie Mo, and their interests are related to each other. These things are not ordered by the imperial court.
It can be solved. Even if Li Jiasheng and others are transferred out of Xuanhua Mansion, the interests are still there, and replacing others will still not change the situation.
Follow Tie Mo to eat delicious food and drink spicy food, follow the imperial court to eat chaff and diarrhea, as long as everyone knows who is better to follow. This is the crux of the problem, but His Majesty cannot figure it out. As long as the Ming Dynasty spring and Autumn period is at its peak, step by step
If the Xuanhua Mansion is prosperous, nothing will happen to the monolithic Xuanhua Mansion, and the so-called Tiemo Party will gradually fall apart. But if it continues like this and cannot even pay military pay, and the frontier troops live in poverty, then the Northern Shanxi Party can only
will become stronger and stronger.
His Majesty always thinks that as long as he is a minister of the daimyo, he should be loyal to his majesty without any regrets. How is this possible? People are selfish and have to support their families. If benevolence, justice and morality work, the Donglin Party
Why did it become what it is today?
Hey, Tie Mo can't be moved. If Tie Mo is really moved, that kid will flutter his sleeves and return to northern Shanxi. Who will he rely on to suppress the bandits? Use him and give him troubles from behind. Is this really good?
Hou Shilu knew that His Majesty would not listen to his words, so he sent a letter to Liaodong early, hoping that Sun Chengzong could enlighten Zhu Youjian. Can Governor Sun not see the problems in northern Shanxi? Nowadays, the independent court in northern Shanxi
, The big tail is another serious concern of the Ming Dynasty. Governor Sun knows this better than anyone else, but why doesn't he say it and never mention it? Is it because he has great trust in Tie Mo? Of course not, just because Sun
The supervisor understands the priorities of things better.
The problems in northern Shanxi already exist, but Tie Mo has no disloyal heart. As long as the court does not force him, he will honestly become the king of northern Shanxi, guard the gate of northern Shanxi for the court, and contain the Mongolian tribes and the Jurchens in Liaodong. Northern Shanxi
The problem can be solved slowly. We can sit down and talk when we have time in the future. There is no need to rush. But the problem of rogue bandits and Liaodong is imminent. If it is not solved as soon as possible, it will kill the Ming Dynasty.
On the other side, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered together, but there were only a few people around Hou Shilu, which looked very desolate. Cheng Jiming glanced at Hou Shilu indifferently, with a subtle expression. Suddenly, he walked out of the crowd and came to Hou Shilu, "Hou Shangshu
, what do you think the outcome will be in the parliament today?”
"I don't know, but Hou knows what should be done and what should not be done." Hou Shilu was not angry, and his words made people speechless. How could you not hear the sarcasm in Hou Shilu's tone?
Whether it can become a basic destiny can only be regarded as unknown.
Of course, Cheng Jiming understood some truths. It was a blessing for the Ming Dynasty to have Tie Mo. This son rose up in northern Shanxi, supported all the Mongolian tribes, ensured that there was no more war in Xuanhua Prefecture, and repeatedly made outstanding achievements in suppressing bandits. Tie Mo was the leader of the Ming Dynasty.
Cheng Ji Ming admitted that he was a hero of the dynasty, and he even admired Tie Mo psychologically. If another person had been placed in the environment in northern Shanxi, his soul might have been gone. It is easy to understand, but the more he understands, the more he cannot tolerate it.
Iron ink.
Tie Mo is a hero of the Ming Dynasty, but he is also a gravedigger of the Donglin faction. When Duofuhao was established and Tie Mo led the Shanxi merchants south, the contradiction between the two sides became irreconcilable. Both sides wanted to compete for interests, and no one could
There's no turning back. There's only so much cheese, and it's up to whoever can eat it. So, as long as there is a chance, we must get rid of the scourge of Tie Mo.
This time is a good opportunity. If Cheng Jiming dares to organize such an impeachment storm at this time, he must rely on it. Tie Mo's private recruitment not only robs Yuan Chonghuan and others of their achievements, but also
His Majesty Zhu Youjian felt a thorn in his heart. His Majesty felt uncomfortable. It was a good opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to attack. Of course, Cheng Jiming would not rely on this to bring down Tie Mo. As long as he could
It would be enough to take back some power in Tie Mo's hands.
Overthrowing Tie Mo is a joke. If you want to overthrow Tie Mo, you must first find a way to overthrow the Northern Shanxi Party. They are nearly 100,000 Northern Shanxi frontier troops, and they are also the elite of the border troops. Let alone the Eastern Shanxi Party.
Even if Lin Qingliu gathered all the power of the Ming Dynasty, he might not be able to wipe out the Northern Shanxi Party. Cheng Jiming had a deeper intention. While causing some trouble for Tie Mo, he could also bring his Majesty and Tie Mo's party to an end.
The rift between them is getting deeper and deeper.
When Wang Cheng'en stood on the steps and shouted for the court meeting to begin, the ministers entered the Jinluan Palace one after another. As expected, as soon as the court meeting began, with Cheng Ji ordered, the ministers headed by Wang Qia launched a storm against Tie Mo, the governor of the three provinces.
Although there are endless reasons for such an offensive, they all insist on recruiting people. Cheng Jiming has been paying attention to Hou Shilu's reaction. At this time, he hopes that Hou Shilu can stand up and speak for Tie Mo. This will only make His Majesty feel dissatisfied.
Even stronger, Hou Shilu seemed to have seen through Cheng Jiming's thoughts. He didn't say a word since he came to court and just listened quietly.
When the ministers finished speaking, Hou Shilu came out, bowed his hands and saluted, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Tie Mo secretly recruited the bandit Li Yangchun's troops without the permission of the court. This move violates the national law and is suspected of trespassing.
, I sincerely request your Majesty to punish Tie Mo for the crime of disrespect according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty."
Hou Shilu suddenly stood up and attacked Tie Mo aggressively, which no one expected. In everyone's impression, Hou Shilu was Tie Mo's old boss. One of them was inside and the other was outside. They were wearing the same pair of trousers. On top of Hou Shilu's head
The label of the Northern Shanxi Party is very obvious. Why did Hou Shilu not protect Tie Mo at such an important time today, but instead added fuel to the flames? Zhu Youjian frowned, rather unresponsive.
On the other hand, the look in Cheng Jiming's eyes dimmed a bit. As an old fox in the court, he understood Hou Shilu's intention in a flash. Hou Shilu's move was good at turning retreat into advance. When everyone stood up to attack Tie
After Mo Shi, His Majesty would feel that Tie Mo was a lonely minister, and his dissatisfaction would be reduced a lot. Hou Shilu was like this, and Chen Xinjia and others behind him seemed to have discussed it, and they all came out and unanimously asked Zhu Youjian to severely punish Tie Mo.
Seeing this, Cheng Jiming couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that Hou Shilu had been able to handle this game again. Sure enough, Zhu Youjian said in a displeased manner after a while: "My dear friends, what everyone said is very reasonable.
, Tie Mo's move was against the rules, but he was in the Central Plains and faced a very complicated situation. Although he did something wrong, it was all for the sake of suppressing the bandits. He made the mistake first, but he did it for the sake of serving the country.
, we can't be punished severely, wouldn't this chill the hearts of tens of thousands of frontier soldiers? Well, let the cabinet draw up an edict and issue a reprimand. In addition, the cabinet can send a reliable person to the Central Plains to supervise military affairs.
"
Chongzhen's punishment was neither painful nor itchy, but the key point was to supervise military affairs, which was almost equivalent to sending a supervisory army. There have always been eunuchs to supervise the army in all nine sides, but there were no eunuchs in northern Shanxi.
, because the rise of the northern Shanxi frontier army did not rely on the imperial court. It was all caused by Tie Mo alone. There was no reason for the imperial court to send a supervisory army. This time, it was an opportunity, but Chongzhen was not stupid enough to send eunuchs to the supervisory army.
He asked the cabinet to find an official. If Chongzhen thought about it, even if Tie Mo was dissatisfied, he would target the cabinet, but if he directly sent eunuchs to supervise the army, that would be another matter.
Chongzhen had a good idea, but Hou Shilu still felt a little bit in his heart. Is it important to send eunuchs to oversee the army? The important thing is to send eunuchs to the northern Shanxi frontier army. What did Tie Mo think? What did the soldiers of the frontier army think? They
Can you swallow this bad breath? The Northern Shanxi Frontier Army is not the previous Nine-Border Frontier Army. Whether it is suppressing bandits or attacking Northern Mongolia, it is what the Northern Shanxi Frontier Army is willing to do, but it does not mean that the imperial court can really dictate.
.You can point fingers if you want. Can you please bring out the military pay, food and grass?
The officers and soldiers of the northern Shanxi frontier army were like a mirror in their minds. They were serving the job of the Iron Governor, not the imperial court. Look at the powerful generals of Yunfu. Except for Hei Yunlong, Ma Fang, Li Jiasheng and other old Xuanfu veterans, Zhou Dingshan, Liu Guoneng,
Orge and others are not from orthodox backgrounds, and they have no respect for the imperial court. There are other Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi, etc., but they can't make it in other places, and they rely on Tie Mo to regain their foothold.
Yes, would they be stupid enough to listen to the imperial court?
Your Majesty is just asking for trouble and thankless effort. But at this time, Hou Shilu had no chance to dissuade him, so he could only let the order be issued. You can imagine how happy Cheng Jiming was. At least, Cheng Jiming
The real goal has been achieved. As long as the conflict between the two can be deepened, Cheng Ji Ming will be considered a success.
Cabinet documents were quickly sent to Kaifeng. At the same time, Dai Yongsen, the former head of the Ministry of Rites, was also sent to Kaifeng with the intention of supervising military affairs. There was an undercurrent surging in the court, and the Central Plains was also uneasy. Tie Mo finally settled the matter after paying a heavy price.
After recruiting officials from Luoyang and Kaifeng, Li Yangchun's department was finally successfully recruited. The next step was to streamline the personnel. Those who should be kept in Li Yangchun's department were sent away, and those who did not want to stay or were unreliable were sent away. The personnel were reorganized and trained, so that they were no longer needed.
Duotie. As for Gao Yingxiang's troops, they were not idle either. After the main army left Meishan, they went south to Xiangcheng, conquered Xiangcheng, Ye County, and Yuzhou and entered the core area of Nanyang Prefecture. Although Sun Chuanting wanted to stop Gao Yingxiang's main force,
Nanyang Prefecture, however, lacked troops and horses, and its combat effectiveness was not as good as the elite peasant army under Li Zicheng. It could only let the main force of Gao Yingxiang's peasant army pass through the border like locusts, destroying Nanyang and Dengzhou all the way.
This time, Gao Yingxiang has no intention of staying in Nanyang Mansion for a long time. The leaders also know very well that the King of Hell will soon lead the border troops to pounce on him. Chen Qiyu and Yuan Chonghuan are not vegetarians. They will not take advantage of this moment.
Hurry up and leave. Once you get caught by officers and soldiers, it will be too late to regret it. We all had to sacrifice Li Yangchun's troops to go south safely. If we are caught by officers and soldiers, wouldn't all the previous sacrifices have been wasted?
They knew it well, so Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng and others had surprisingly consistent goals. Instead of wasting time and looting like before, they passed Nanyang Mansion smoothly and poured into Guanghua Town in northern Hunan. By now, the peasant army had left.
Xiangyang is very close. After nearly a year of fighting back and forth with the peasant army, Xiangyang has lost troops and generals. It is good to be able to defend Xiangyang City now, but it has no ability to encircle and suppress the peasant army in Guanghua Town.
