"Mr. Ge, I have led everyone to inspect everything in Prince Qin's palace. Everyone has been emptied out. Seals have been posted on all the palace doors and windows."
"good!"
After Yuan Keli responded, he waved his hand and the gate of the palace slowly closed, and several guards in royal robes held seals and posted them on the gate.
The moment the seal was affixed, Yuan Keli felt a little sad.
The palace, which has been inherited for more than two hundred years, cost countless silver coins, and took eight years to build, will remain silent for a long time in the future.
Perhaps it is permanently silent, or perhaps it will be reactivated one day in the future.
After all, this is the palace of the No. 1 vassal in the world, the largest of all princes' palaces, and Xi'an Mansion is also the largest palace in the world. It is known as "the world's mountains and rivers, but the Qin Dynasty is the most dangerous and solid" support.
It would be the biggest waste to leave it empty like this.
Yuan Keli looked at the commander of the Six Guards beside him: "Although the King of Qin has returned to Beijing, you must take good care of the Qin King's Mansion and send two hundred households to patrol day and night.
If anyone dares to break in or steal, no matter what kind of object they steal, they will be shot without mercy! "
The six of them nodded in unison.
Although the Prince of Qin's palace was ransacked, the furniture, wood, rockeries, stone carvings, etc. in the palace were all of the best quality.
It is no exaggeration to say that if these things were allowed to be sold and some people dared to buy them, the things in Prince Qin's palace could still be sold for at least millions of taels of silver.
"Let's go, let's go too!"
Yuan Keli also got on the carriage, and Cui Ming rode on his horse to guard the left side of the carriage.
Just when I walked to the main street, I saw countless people standing on both sides, seeming to see Yuan Keli off.
When the people saw Yuan Keli's carriage, they all cheered.
"Mr. Yuan Ge, have a nice trip!"
…
Yuan Keli waved to the people through the window of the carriage,
For a time, the sound of firecrackers and gongs and drums resounded throughout Xi'an.
I don’t know whether it was to celebrate the departure of King Qin, a great ‘scourge’ in the eyes of the people of Xi’an City, or to kill corrupt officials in Xi’an Mansion for Yuan Keli.
Or it may be a celebration of oppressing the common people, or the gentry and wealthy merchants in the fish and meat township being severely punished, or maybe a combination of the three.
PS: In the early Tang Dynasty, some people put saltpeter into bamboo tubes and set them off. This was the first firecracker. In the Song Dynasty, people began to generally use paper tubes and hemp stems to wrap gunpowder and weave them into strings to make "woven cannons", that is, firecrackers.
Amid cheers, lion dances, and firecrackers, the carriage slowly drove out of Xi'an City and gradually disappeared outside Xi'an's thick city wall.
After driving for a certain distance, Yuan Keli handed over a box from the window of the carriage.
"Cui Ming, send someone six hundred miles away to rush out these three letters."
Cui Ming took it and looked at it. One was for the imperial court, one was for the Tongguan guards, and one was for the Henan capital commander.
The letter to the court roughly described the handling process of the Qin Palace, the appointment and dismissal of officials, the confiscation of homes, etc.
What was given to Tongguan Guard was to let the commander of Tongguan Guard lead people to escort King Qin's convoy through Henan.
The letter to the Henan Capital Secretary was to inform the Henan Capital Commander of his intention to mobilize Teng Zao.
He is the governor-general of the three sides appointed by the emperor himself and the imperial envoy for disaster relief in Shaanxi. He has the power to mobilize the guard posts in Shaanxi.
Although the Tongguan Guards were stationed at Huayin in Tongguan, Shaanxi Province, they were subordinate to the Henan Dusi.
The second is to ask the Henan Capital Command and Envoy to inform various health stations in Henan to prepare logistical support along the way.
In name, they were escorting the King of Qin, but in fact they were worried about the gold and silver in the convoy. Everyone was tempted by the financial assets of fifteen million taels, and they were afraid of just in case if they were not afraid of ten thousand.
Among the escort teams from the Beijing camp, there was also a team of Jinyi guards monitoring them.
It's not that he doesn't trust Jingying or Tongguan Guards, he just wants to reduce the hassle if problems arise.
After Cui Ming made some arrangements, the three Jin Yiwei separated from the team and quickly headed towards their respective destinations.
Looking at the Jin Yiwei who was quickly walking away, Yuan Keli chuckled: "I believe your Majesty will be very happy when he hears the news. We will have money to train troops, and the nine sides will be stable."
And the person he was talking about, Chongzhen, who was far away in Nuange in the east of Beijing, was listening to Li Ruolian's report at the moment.
"Xu Guangqi and the others have arrived?"
"Is Sun Chuanting here too?"
"Cao Huachun is here too?"
Chongzhen stood up from behind the Long Case and thought for a moment: "You first call Sun Chuanting, and by the way, ask the cabinet and Li Banghua to come too!"
"I obey the decree!"
Before Chongzhen finished his cup of tea, Wang Chengen led a man into Dongnuan Pavilion.
"Your Majesty, I have sent you to the court to see your Majesty. Your Majesty's greetings!"
"Get up and talk!"
PS: Sun Chuanting just took leave to go home, and his official position was still there (honor). He did not reduce his status. It was okay to call him a minister. This was the "official title with a crown" in the Ming Dynasty.
After Sun Chuanting stood up, Chongzhen looked at Sun Chuanting who said in "History of Ming Dynasty" that "Chuanting died and Ming Dynasty died".
Sure enough, as recorded, he was eight feet long and tall in appearance.
According to historical records, Sun Chuanting took leave of absence and returned to his hometown in the fifth year of Tianqi's reign because he was dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian's dictatorship.
In the eighth year of Chongzhen's reign, he returned to Beijing and served as the Prime Minister of Shuntian. In the ninth year, he was appointed governor of Shaanxi. Together with Hong Chengchou, he suppressed the peasant uprising, captured the "Chuang King" Gao Yingxiang, eliminated fifteen groups of rebels, and stabilized the situation in Shaanxi.
In the eleventh year, Jiannu entered the fortress and went to Beijing to serve the king. After Lu Xiangsheng died in battle, the governor sent reinforcements to each town. Later, he was suspected by Chongzhen and imprisoned. He was imprisoned for three years before being released.
Then Chongzhen urged him to go out to Tongguan to fight Li Zicheng due to his greed for merit. As a result, he was defeated and soon died in Tongguan at the age of fifty-one.
Chongzhen secretly lamented that if the former Chongzhen had not shut down Sun Chuanting for three years, Li Zicheng would not have been so powerful.
If it weren't for former Chongzhen's blind command, Sun Chuanting would not have been defeated, and the Ming Dynasty would not have perished five months after his death.
There was also the Battle of Songjin in the twelfth year of Chongzhen. It was also Chongzhen's blind command and urging the decisive battle, which led to the Ming army's disastrous defeat, nearly half of the casualties, and the loss of all the elite of the Jiuguan border troops.
Therefore, some people say that the demise of the dynasty was caused by Chongzhen himself, which makes some sense.
"Sun Aiqing, I really like your sentence, "If the Holy Lord is waiting in front of you, I am willing to shed blood and tears on Danchi." "
"Your Majesty, have you heard of it?"
Sun Chuanting was very surprised, and his heart was full of joy.
"Not just this one, there are many more. I have heard them all. It is my great luck to have such ministers as Sun Aiqing in the Ming Dynasty!"
"I heard that Aiqing can shoot left and right and has excellent martial arts skills, but is it true?"
"Your Majesty, the martial arts inherited from my ancestors cannot be lost in the hands of unfilial descendants. Everyone in my family is a good fighter!"
"Hahaha, I almost forgot that your ninth generation ancestor Sun Cheng was the Zhenwuwei Baihu during the reign of Taizu."
As soon as Chongzhen finished speaking, a voice came from outside the door of Dongnuan Pavilion.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for acquiring another tiger general!"
