However, Zhang Mingwei came.
He can obtain the most objective evaluation of this late Ming Dynasty figure from the coffin conclusion, and know who is actually a loyal minister and good general, and who is actually a man who steals men and women who are prostitutes. In this way, with targeted selection and punishment, as long as the methods are correct, it is still possible to save the Ming Dynasty!
If you want to say that history conceals the truth, has anyone been misinterpreted? There will definitely be, but in any case, generally speaking, only people who have traveled through time can save the Ming Dynasty at this time.
However, if those who time travel are not familiar with the history of the late Ming Dynasty and have been sold out by the old oilmen in the officialdom of the late Ming Dynasty, they may still be counting money for others without knowing it. Therefore, one must also be familiar with the history of the late Ming Dynasty.
And Zhang Mingwei just met this condition, so his time travel and falling in front of Emperor Chongzhen might really be God's intention.
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen still held his hands tightly and said eagerly to Zhang Mingwei: "Please give me some advice, sir!"
"Your Majesty, regarding the matter of restoring society, it's best to investigate and verify it secretly!" Zhang Mingwei immediately replied, "I think the Lan Tianbao I took in should be a talented person. I will observe again these days. For a moment. If possible, after I take over as Jinyiwei, I will arrange for him to work in Jinyiwei and be responsible for investigating the matter of Fushe. If there is really a problem, he is a victim of Fushe's control of the imperial examination. Let him charge into the battle, which is the best way to crack Fushe knife!"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen nodded quickly and said, "Sir, you can do whatever you want regarding the Jin Yiwei matter."
Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed and said: "Back then, Wen Qing actually reminded me about the restoration of society in Jiangnan. It's just a pity that I didn't listen to him at the beginning!"
Zhang Mingwei knew as soon as he heard that Emperor Chongzhen was referring to Wen Tiren.
When Wen Tiren was the first assistant, he spent most of his energy fighting against the restoration of society, and even his brother Wen Yuren was involved.
At that time, Wen Yuren, Wu Bing and others jointly created "The Legend of Green Peony". In the words of later generations, it praised the happy love based on talent and appearance, satirized the deceptive behavior of fake celebrities, and exposed various shortcomings of the imperial examinations. , more truly reflects the spiritual outlook of various intellectuals in the late Ming Dynasty.
Because of this, even though Wen Tiren was already the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty at that time, Wen Yuren was still imprisoned under the pretext of the local authorities. It can be seen that Fushe was actually very powerful at that time.
Wen Tiren eventually resigned from his official position, which was also the result of his failure to return to society. After being impeached by Fu She and the eunuchs many times, Emperor Chongzhen finally lost his trust in Wen Tiren. As a result, Wen Tiren, who had served as the chief minister for the longest time in the Chongzhen Dynasty, sadly left officialdom and had no chance of recovery.
After Emperor Chongzhen sighed and missed Wen Tiren, he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "I will never spare this Zhou Yanru!"
Having said this, he immediately asked Zhang Mingwei: "Sir, do you have any recommendations for the first assistant?"
He already doesn't believe in his own ability. If he goes to the court to be promoted or something, maybe the second Zhou Yanru will come out. There are ready-made candidates to ask, so I will naturally ask.
In the original history, after Zhou Yanru returned to the throne of chief minister, he didn't know if there was something wrong with his brain, but he actually reported to Emperor Chongzhen that he wanted to abolish the factory guards again. As a result, he and Luo Yangxing, who originally had a good relationship, turned against each other and were eventually brought down by Luo Yangxing after he complained.
But at this time, because of Zhang Mingwei's appearance, he was destined to be eliminated early.
After Zhang Mingwei listened to Emperor Chongzhen's question, he thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Your Majesty, as the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, you should have the vision to understand the situation clearly and be far-sighted. Judging from subsequent history, there is indeed such a person. He should be able to meet this condition. Even if he is excluded, Nan Ming has persisted for so many years, and it should be all his credit."
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and asked quickly: "Sir, please speak quickly!"
"This man's parents died when he was young, and he worked hard to live under the influence of others. He passed the imperial examination in the tenth year of Chongzhen." Zhang Mingwei immediately introduced, "If the historical data is good, he should be the prefect of Changsha now, leading troops to quell the surrounding bandit chaos. He has certain influence He knows the capabilities of soldiers and understands the sufferings of the people..."
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and then asked in surprise: "But Du Yinxi?"
Although this person was local, he still had a good reputation, and Emperor Chongzhen was impressed by him. Next year, which is the 16th year of Chongzhen, he will be promoted to Wuhan and Huangzhou Military Preparation Road.
Zhang Mingwei listened, nodded and said: "Your Majesty should still remember that the bandits finally joined forces with Nanming to resist the Jianlu. And throughout the history of Nanming, the backbone of the resistance against the Jianlu has always been the bandit army. If there were no bandit army, , Nanming died early!"
Emperor Chongzhen nodded after hearing this, and his face became a little heavy again. He already knew from the documentary that the Nanming army, in fact, his army in the south, were all very unbearable, actively fighting among themselves, and suffered a complete defeat against the Jianlu, with almost no record of success. The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was really in ruins!
In addition, as far as Emperor Chongzhen himself is concerned, he actually knows that the reason why the bandits are bandits is that the court has an unshirkable responsibility, including himself.
It is precisely because of this that even if Zhang Xianzhong and a group of bandits dug up Fengyang's ancestral tomb, Emperor Chongzhen finally agreed to the recruitment. Several times when the edict was issued, the people's livelihood was difficult, which caused the people to be in dire straits.
Likewise, Emperor Chongzhen was not surprised at all when Zhang Mingwei told what happened to Lan Tianbao, Liu Jin and others.
"At that time, the Jianlu cavalry went south, and the bandits had about 300,000 troops, and they wanted to fight with Nanming." Zhang Mingwei continued to elaborate, "It was Du Yinxi who actually rode into the bandit camp alone and persuaded 300,000 bandits. The army became the Ming Army and was reorganized into the Loyalty Battalion. In the end, this Ming Army lived up to the word loyalty and fought against Jianlu to the last man!"
Emperor Chongzhen nodded again when he heard this. Compared to those scholar-bureaucrats who spoke of benevolence, justice and morality, and finally either surrendered or surrendered in front of Jianlu, he certainly appreciated such loyal people more.
Also, the capital city was destroyed and the Ming Dynasty was destroyed. He knew from the film and television what he finally said, "The king is not the king of the country's subjugation, but the ministers are the ministers of the country's subjugation." Combined with his current feelings, to be honest, if he could act willfully, He really wanted to kill all these courtiers.
After Li Zicheng entered the capital, it was certainly mentioned in the documentary that he pursued stolen money to support him. When Emperor Chongzhen looked at this, he felt very relieved. To be honest, of course he hated Li Zicheng regarding the demise of the Ming Dynasty, but in comparison, he hated the rebellion of these ministers even more.
After all, Li Zicheng and the others were forced to rebel, but these rebellious ministers under him were trying to steal his blood and stab him with knives!
Therefore, after Zhang Mingwei finished speaking, Emperor Chongzhen immediately made the decision and said: "Okay, I will immediately send an order to him to come to Beijing immediately, and I will have a talk with him personally!"
Zhang Mingwei understands that this is probably an interview. As long as he passes the interview, he will be the new first assistant! Wish him good luck!
Thinking like this, Zhang Mingwei was thinking about the refugees outside the city and didn't want to delay. He even wanted to wait a few days before mentioning the plague.
This time, Emperor Chongzhen did not stop him. So, Zhang Mingwei, surrounded by Wang Chengen and a large group of Dongchang servants, set off in a mighty manner.
On Chang'an Avenue, as soon as the brigade of Dongchang troops appeared, pedestrians were immediately frightened and fled.
Zhang Mingwei was a little surprised when there were more passers-by, when he suddenly saw the situation at the door of his house, and was stunned.
