Before hanging himself, Chongzhen lifted the table

Chapter 13 Moving the Capital
Normally, Wang Zhixin would not have said anything useful to Wang Dehua, but at this time, he was concerned and asked immediately: "Did something happen in the Royal Horse Prison?"

At this time, Wang Dehua had already arrived in front of him, and without waiting to take a breath, he immediately replied: "Wang Chengen, with the decree of Lord Long Live, went to the Royal Horse Prison to select people. The candidates for the imperial guards in the past two days will have to go through him. Only if you agree!"

The Royal Horse Supervisor is the military bureau directly under the palace. If the emperor goes on an expedition, he must accompany him on the expedition.Most of the eunuchs sent by the emperor to supervise the army came from the Royal Horse Prison.

Wang Chengen went to the capital camp to supervise the army, and Fang Zhenghua went to Baoding to be the director. They were actually subordinate to the Yuma Supervisor.Logically speaking, Wang Dehua is in charge, and matters related to the Royal Horse Supervisor must be handled by him.

Therefore, when Wang Chengen went to do things directly according to the order, Wang Dehua smelled something wrong. If the imperial edict was true, he could not interfere with Wang Chengen's work, so he had to rush to see the emperor to understand the situation.As a result, he met Wang Zhixin who had just returned to the palace halfway, so he naturally had to communicate with Wang Zhixin.

At this time, Wang Zhixin was a little surprised when he heard his words.

The Royal Horse Supervisor was originally very trusted by the emperor.

Previously, the Yongwei Battalion was formed here by the Royal Horse Supervisor, with approximately more than 1 people. Zhou Yuji, Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan each led one to suppress the bandits, and they made great contributions.

The emperor was happy and asked the Royal Horse Supervisor to form another battalion. The result was that it did not have the slightest record of the Yuan Yongwei Battalion, but the emperor did not say anything.

Of course Wang Zhixin knew the reason. The previous Yongwei camp was built with real money.Afterwards, they tried to organize it, but they ran out of money, so it was naturally impossible to have a strong army.

This matter has already passed so long.Zhou Yuji was transferred to Sanguan Commander-in-Chief, Sun Yingyuan died in battle, and Huang Degong was transferred to Fengyang Commander-in-Chief. All the original Yongwei battalions were destroyed. Did the emperor think of this again?

Thinking about this, he sorted out a few things: First, the emperor had a dream, and the Ming Dynasty was about to fall?Then he summoned the military generals and asked them to gather troops. He also summoned the nobles to take over the imperial guards. He was dissatisfied with the Royal Horse Supervisor and held a large court meeting, saying that Emperor Taizu had a dream and wanted to do something extraordinary...

Wang Dehua saw that Wang Zhixin did not answer after listening, and felt a little dissatisfied, so he urged: "Tell me, what exactly does Long Live Lord want to do?"

Perhaps because he woke him up, when Wang Zhixin heard this, he raised his head and stared at him, and suddenly whispered: "Long live the Lord, is it time to move the capital?"

The matter of moving the capital has been debated many times in the court, and there is no conclusion.

As a confidant of Emperor Chongzhen, Wang Zhixin actually knew that the emperor was inclined to move the capital.However, some important ministers used big hats to suppress the emperor, forcing the emperor to give up the move of moving the capital on the surface. Some ministers even refused to agree to the suggestion that the prince move south.

Now that the emperor used Emperor Taizu's dream to explain things, and also said that the country would be subjugated immediately, then it would be logical to move the capital again, right?

The emperor left himself and the Royal Horse Supervisor aside on this matter. Could it be because neither he nor Wang Dehua supported Long Live Lord on this matter?

To say that it is supported, it is definitely not supported.

If the emperor really moved south, what would happen to the real estate shop he built in the capital?It is also very troublesome to transport so much property to the south.That is to say, only those southern officials who have just arrived in the capital will agree. Who else will agree?

If this is really the case, if you lose your holy grace, you will lose your holy grace. At worst, you will retire and return to your hometown, at least you will have no worries for the rest of your life!He was thinking that when Wang Dehua heard what he said, he was first surprised, and then he thought it made sense after considering the recent situation and the situation in the DPRK.Therefore, he nodded and said in a low voice: "Li Zicheng's situation is already established. If he invades Shanxi, we expect that Jin will not be able to hold it. Moving the capital is indeed a way to preserve the Ming Dynasty."

As the first and second people in the palace, they knew each other very well. They both knew that the other party had actually found a way out and would not accompany the Ming Dynasty to the end.Therefore, what Wang Dehua said is difficult to say to others, but it is okay to say it to Wang Zhixin.

No one is a fool, just because they have their own interests, they seem to be unable to see through the situation.

Wang Dehua had more say in military affairs. After Wang Zhixin heard what he said, if he was only [-]% sure before, he was now completely convinced.

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but think of the ten thousand and twenty-three taels of silver again, and his heart ached very much.He would have made a mistake. No wonder the emperor still had such a lukewarm attitude toward him after seeing so much money.

So Wang Zhixin said to Wang Dehua: "Long live the Lord, I'm afraid he will hold a big court meeting in the future to announce this decree. For such a big thing as moving the capital, it's no wonder that we have to borrow Emperor Taizu's wishes and ask for honors from the emperor, civil and military ministers, etc. It’s time to arrive and have some intention.”

After Wang Dehua heard this, he sneered and said: "With a big family and a big business, who would think of moving south? Long live this plan, I am afraid it will arouse fierce opposition from the civil servants. Hehe, our family has all thought of Wei Zaode, who is self-sufficient and intelligent. , It would be strange if we don’t spray to death those officials who dare to support the southward migration!”

Wei Zaode was from Tongzhou, and he most disapproved of the move of the capital to the south.It’s hard to say whether this talent is talented or not, but he is very conceited and extremely eloquent, but it is true.

Wang Dehua figured out the whole story and was no longer anxious.

Anyway, he doesn't agree with moving the capital, and he doesn't care about the eunuch position held by the imperial eunuch of Nanjing City. If the emperor insists on moving the capital, then they can part ways.

So, he said to Wang Zhixin: "There is still a team over there in Nanjing. Even if the capital is really moved, the two teams from the north and the south will come out of their wits, and there will be a lot of fun!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Dehua did not go to Emperor Chongzhen and left by himself.

Wang Zhixin looked at his back, and immediately called a chamberlain and whispered a few instructions, asking him to spread the news of the capital move to the outer court.With one day of preparation, even if the emperor moves out Emperor Taizu, it will probably cause a huge commotion!
Then, like Wang Dehua, he was not in a hurry. If the emperor wanted to make trouble, then just go ahead and make trouble!

Thinking of this, he thought of the 23 taels of silver again. Feeling distressed, he thought about finding a way to replenish this large sum of money while he was still in his position!

At this time, it was almost evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun enveloped the capital and also fell on Ji Town.

The eight-hundred-mile urgent messenger from the capital had already gone to rest, but Tang Tong, the commander-in-chief of Jizhen who had received the order, was busy.His son Tang Hanfu was a little reluctant when he saw it, and immediately invited his father to the back hall, and then persuaded him: "Dad, the thieves are very powerful now, it is better to continue to wait and see how they will turn into good things!"

After hearing this, Tang Tong shook his head and said, "Your Majesty issued an order and urged you to do so. How can you wait and see what happens?"

"Dad!" After hearing this, Tang Hanfu's voice became a little louder, and he persuaded again, "But dad has done a good enough job for the Ming Dynasty in the past few years. Look at other people and learn from Wu Sangui and Zuo Liang. Jade them is the way to protect yourself!"
