A moment later, Zhu Youjian took the edict monk Fang Baojian, accompanied by Wang Chengen and his guards, and moved directly into Prince Xin's Mansion in addition to the palace.
Zhu Youjian's guess was correct. Although Emperor Tianqi apparently gave himself full responsibility for rectifying the military camp, he actually left Wei Zhongxian in charge of rectifying the Beijing camp.
Zhu Youjian is mainly responsible for dealing with the counterattacks of those powerful people.
Therefore, Zhu Youjian, who was responsible for rectifying the people in the Beijing camp, made a mistake in the process of rectifying the Beijing camp except on the first day. After he killed two deputy general soldiers at the request of Wei Zhongxian, he I have never been to Jingying again.
With nothing to do, Zhu Youjian could only stay in Prince Xin's Mansion to increase the recognition of him among the 100 eunuchs and maids in Prince Xin's Mansion, and run back to the palace from time to time to communicate with Emperor Tianqi.
Two months passed. Although Youtun was eventually captured by Jiannu, and Xiong Tingbi and others died heroically for their country, life was still difficult for Jiannu.
When the city was broken, Xiong Tingbi ordered the entire Youtun to be burned. Millions of stone grain and grass were burned.
The slave-building army had very little food and fodder left.
With the support of 10,000 Beijing battalions around the Daling River, and the gathering of many broken troops, the castles along the Daling River are not as empty as before.
After conquering Youtun, the slave chief immediately sent his troops to attack Dalinghe Fort.
As a result, Jiannu suffered a small loss against the well-equipped Beijing camp.
Although the officials were corrupt, they did not dare to confront the powerful and became the capital camp of the gilded holy land. Although the corruption was serious and the personnel and weapons were far insufficient, the quality of the firearms was still acceptable.
After all, it would not be a trivial matter for any gilded young man to be injured by a shotgun while shooting.
What Sun Chengzong brought was a well-trained and well-equipped Beijing camp, and he had enough time to prepare for defense. It was normal for the slaves of the Ming army, who had always been underestimated, to suffer a small loss.
Mao Wenlong was wreaking havoc on the Tatar territory. The temperature around the Daling River rose and the ice on the Daling River showed signs of melting. Coupled with the lack of food and grass.
The slave chief immediately chose to evacuate.
At this point, the Battle of Guangning ended.
The Battle of Guangning here had just ended, and the Ming Dynasty court finally came to an end. Xiong Tingbi was unfavorable in rescuing Guangning and failed to defend Youtun, but he wanted to die heroically for his country, so he did not punish him.
Although Wang Huazhen lost Guangning, he remembered him and later stabilized the defense of Dalinghe River, so he was dismissed from his post, imprisoned, and later tried again.
As for the defeat of Guangning, the main culprits still talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality in the court.
After getting the news, Zhu Youjian became furious and threw several teacups one after another.
No wonder Emperor Tianqi wanted to re-appoint Wei Zhongxian, and no wonder Chongzhen, who re-appointed the Donglin Party, was finally forced to commit suicide in Meishan.
Is it possible for the Donglin Party to maintain its virtues without subjugating the country?
After the decision was issued in the vestibule, Emperor Tianqi was very dissatisfied with it. During this period of time, they were rectifying the Beijing camp openly and secretly rectifying the Jinyiwei.
Before and after the Battle of Guangning and the reason for the failure of the Battle of Youtun, Emperor Tianqi knew clearly. He ordered 20,000 soldiers to be given to Xiong Tingbi. As a result, the Ministry of War gave 20,000 soldiers. But what kind of virtue are the soldiers?
On the surface, Xiong Tingbi has 30,000 troops, but in fact, except for his original less than 10,000 men, the rest are all old, weak, sick and disabled.
After Jiannu drove out the common people, he was able to defend it for 2 months and annihilated nearly 20,000 enemies, gaining valuable time for the Daling River front line to reorganize its defenses.
Such a great contribution was due to the fact that he was not rewarded by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty because he was not from the Donglin Party.
According to the Ming Dynasty law, what Wang Huazhen did was not an exaggeration to kill the nine clans, but just because he was recommended by the Donglin Party, he was only dismissed from office, imprisoned, and then retried.
At this moment, the face of the Donglin Party was completely seen by Emperor Tianqi.
But governing a big country is like cooking a small dish. Although Emperor Tianqi hates the Donglin Party, he is also very clear about the power of the Donglin Party. In addition to being ineffective in getting things done, these guys incite public sentiment, commit corruption and bend the law, etc. proficient.
If you want to deal with them, you can only rely on the eunuchs.
However, in order to think that Xiaowu had some opinions on Wei Zhongxian, and in addition, Emperor Tianqi still had some doubts about the eunuch party regarding the palace transfer case, so he rejected the candidate recommended by Wei Zhongxian and reprimanded Wei Zhongxian. Finally, Li Zhong was appointed commander of the Jinyi Guards.
After being reprimanded and commanded by Emperor Tianqi, Wei Zhongxian thought that he sent people to rectify the Beijing camp and failed to satisfy the emperor, so he began to carry out large-scale restructuring of the Beijing camp without caring about the dignity of the powerful.
All those who were gilded in the capital camp were invited to tea by Wei Zhongxian.
Others occupying the interests of the capital camp, whether they are noble military ministers, associate civil servants or admirals and eunuchs, each have a share of the pie. They were all invited to have tea one by one by Wei Zhongxian.
But the biggest resistance to reform is vested interests.
Those talented people will die regardless of whether you reform or not.
Anyway, if you interfere with my interests, I will punish you to death.
Suddenly, the court was full of rumors about impeaching Wei Zhongxian.
Emperor Tianqi was forced to throw Wei Zhongxian out to play with these people, while he hid in the palace and worked as a carpenter.
Except for King Xin Zhu Youjian, no one from outside the palace was seen.
So the originally deserted Xinwang Mansion suddenly became lively.
Many scholars came to visit King Xin.
Zhu Youjian knew in his heart that these scholars were just passing messages to the officials.
After all, he was the prince of the Ming Dynasty. How could officials dare to associate with him so easily?
At this moment, Zhu Youjian is preparing for the auction.
That's right, it was the auction. After reminiscing about this period of time, Zhu Youjian definitely wanted to avoid hanging up on the coal mountain. The only way was to have money and food in his hands. There are also several armies loyal to them.
Let's not mention the army for now. Don't think about it until you get to that position.
But money and food can be prepared in advance.
The fastest way to make money is, of course, doing business. I am a relative of the emperor. Who dares to make things difficult for me when doing business?
Of course, doing business is definitely not done by oneself. After all, "the four classes of scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants are deeply rooted in the Ming Dynasty. It would be really embarrassing for a prince to do business in person."
But this is not a problem. If you can’t do it yourself, you can leave it to others to find out.
But doing business requires capital. Although he is deeply favored by Emperor Tianqi, he cannot change the fact that he is short of money.
The entire Xinwang Mansion contained less than 10,000 taels of silver. After deducting some funds needed to maintain the normal operation of the palace, there is only 3,000 taels of working capital.
After thinking about it, Zhu Youjian finally looked at the palace. To put it bluntly, it is the items made by Emperor Tianqi.
Zhu Youjian has personally seen the carpentry works of Emperor Tianqi. In terms of shape and quality, they are definitely high-quality.
Coupled with the status of Emperor Tianqi, selling at a high price will never be a problem.
Zhu Youjian, who was obsessed with money, had no time to talk to the scholars outside the door.
But it's not a problem to let scholars block the door like this.
Moreover, Ming Dynasty is really good to scholars. Once he drives them away by force, he will be sure to have someone take part in his book the next day.
So Zhu Youjian had an idea and asked Wang Chengen to go out and summon the owner of the restaurant in the capital.
Two hours later, the owner of a brothel named Yunliang Pavilion smiled and handed Wang Chengen a banknote of 10,000 taels.
Early the next morning, Wang Chengen announced directly at the door.
"The prince is a rich man. In fact, these ordinary scholars can meet him casually. In the poetry meeting held in Yunliang Pavilion three days later, whoever can enter the top three will be summoned by the prince."
