Ming politicians

In the end, Sun Chengzong failed to go to Ningyuan to proclaim the decree. Lu Shan, the new minister of the Ministry of War, went to Ningyuan to proclaim the decree and resigned from the position of the chief assistant of the cabinet. Sun Chengzong, who had not had time to rest, suddenly fell ill and was very sick. The imperial doctor in the palace was always on guard at the Sun Mansion, but it still didn't get better.

Entering December, Sun Chengzong's body became heavier and heavier. Knowing that time was running out, Sun Chengzong tremblingly wrote a memorial, begging to see Su Tiancheng.

Zhu Youjian naturally agreed, and immediately issued an imperial edict calling Su Tiancheng to Beijing.

Su Tiancheng achieved his goal, the emperor approved all his requests, and put Qingzhou Mansion under his direct jurisdiction, so that he had enough space to plan his own in advance.

The news of Sun Chengzong's critical illness quickly spread to Ningyuan. Su Tiancheng, who was planning to set off for Dengzhou, was so anxious that he delayed his trip, but without an imperial edict, he could not return to the capital casually. [

After receiving the imperial decree, Su Tiancheng didn't delay for a moment, and hurried to the capital. He knew that Sun Chengzong was getting old, and his body had been completely exhausted by so many years of hard work. He might not be able to support him.

Arriving at the capital, the eunuch waited at the official post, and told Su Tiancheng directly that he didn't need to go to the palace to meet him, but went directly to see Mr. Sun, Su Tiancheng didn't say much, turned around and went towards Sun's mansion.

Sun Chengzong was lying on the couch, looking haggard, his energy was completely exhausted, like a burnt candle, when he was still in the position of chief assistant in the cabinet, he had to hold on.You can't let go of what you're doing, once you've let go of the burden.All kinds of problems came out. The day after he resigned as the chief minister of the cabinet, he fell ill. This was unexpected by everyone, but Sun Chengzong himself knew that his time had come.

There are still many things that have not been arranged in time, Sun Chengzongfa closed his eyes.He needs to see Su Tiancheng, needs to entrust Su Tiancheng, needs to entrust many things, he must see Su Tiancheng.

The atmosphere in the mansion was extremely depressing, and Sun Quan also rushed over from his hometown, after meeting Sun Chengzong. Sun Quan, who is in his 50s, also cried bitterly. He hadn't seen his father for a few years. The father who used to be a lively dragon turned into this picture, and he seemed to be back to heaven.

Sun Siming, Sun Sizong and others also rushed back.

Sun Quan hurried into the bedroom.

"Father, Master Su Tiancheng is here."

Sun Chengzong, who had been in a semi-comatose state, suddenly twitched his brows and opened his eyes.

"Quickly, please Master Su..."

After Su Tiancheng entered the bedroom, everyone withdrew.

Looking at Sun Chengzong, Su Tiancheng said guiltily.

"My lord. This is all the junior's fault. I brought my lord into the court. I destroyed my lord's body. I still remember that when I was in Gaoyang County, my lord's body was so strong. It's only been a few years."

"Kun Yuan, don't say that, I still want to thank you. I have been up and down for the court all my life, and now I have finally let go of this burden. I and you are old friends. Many times, I am the emperor. , Congratulations to the court, if it weren't for your appearance, my Ming Dynasty would have encountered more turmoil."

"If the younger generation didn't get the full support of the adults, they wouldn't be able to do these things well."

"No, all of these are your abilities. I know that you are the mainstay of my Ming Dynasty. I have met too many people in my life. Someone as outstanding as you is No. 1, Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng will destroy it, the old man knows, your road is not easy."

Su Tiancheng looked at Sun Chengzong and didn't say anything. He sensed sensitively that Sun Chengzong must have something very important to say.

"I am familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, including the Romance of the Three Kingdoms written by Luo Guanzhong. Zhuge Kongming is a prime minister admired by thousands of people. I compare it. However, I remember the plot of Liu Bei Tuogu very clearly. These days, this old man often appears in his mind. Waiting, it seems that Zhuge Kongming is standing in front of the old man."

"I am loyal to the imperial court all my life, and I am afraid that it is rare to experience four emperors. It is precisely because of this that I have penetrated a lot of things and have to worry..." [

Speaking of this, Sun Chengzong coughed, Su Tiancheng quickly supported Sun Chengzong, and lightly beat his back.

At this time, Su Tiancheng found that Sun Chengzong's spirit suddenly became very good, and his face flushed. He knew that this was a sign of returning to the light, and that Sun Chengzong's time had really come.

Su Tiancheng became serious.

"What are the requirements and entrustments that the adults have for the juniors, the juniors will definitely do their best."

Sun Chengzong nodded in relief, even if smart people speak differently, he will not hide it anymore.

"The situation in the imperial court, the old man is aware of the situation, the meritorious service is the master, the old man thinks, you will definitely encounter such a situation, the old man wants to say, you must focus on building Dengzhou, Laizhou, and Qingzhou. With enough No matter what happens to the court, you have to face it calmly, the future of the Ming Dynasty depends on you."

There was no expression on Su Tiancheng's face, nor did he speak. The secret in his heart was discovered by this dying old man. This is not a bad thing. On the contrary, he felt the expectation from Sun Chengzong's words.

"Your Majesty has devoted all his energy to Da Ming, which is worthy of admiration. Unfortunately, the Emperor is not a hero of the generation and has many flaws. The old man thinks that if one day, the Emperor treats you badly, you should focus on Da Ming's stability." , don't let the Houjin Tartars take advantage of you."

"I used to think about it, hoping to see the day when you wiped out the Empress Golden Tartars. I can't hold on any longer. However, I will always miss you when I'm down there."

"The old man has something to ask you. The old man Liu Ge's son, the eldest son Sun Quan, is getting old. He will return to his hometown and keep the family business. The second grandson will keep the family business in the capital. The third son, Sun Qian, can't study well and can't pass the exam. Fame, but calm, you can enter the court to do things, just follow you, go to the governor's mansion to do things, the fourth grandson and the fifth grandson are a little irritable, and it is not good to enter the officialdom, so they enter the Jiangning camp and fight Let the enemy go, and the eldest grandson, Sun Zhihang, also entered the Jiangning camp. As for the old Liu Sunpei, he stayed in the capital to study. After graduating from the Imperial College, he will take part in the examination. The Sun family."

"My lord, this junior will definitely do well."

"Kun Yuan, the old man is counting on you."

Sun Quan, Sun, Sun Qian, Sun, Sun, Sun Pei, Sun Zhihang and others all entered the bedroom and knelt in front of the bed. Sun Chengzong looked at the crowd and spoke word by word.

"I have told Master Su about the things I entrusted you, and Master Su also agreed. Sun Quan, Sun, you should guard your family property and take good care of many family members. Sun Qian, when you enter the Governor's Mansion to do things, you must obey Master Su's arrangement, Sun, Sun, after you enter the Jiangning camp, you will fight and charge ahead, and kill the enemy for your father, Sun Pei, a good student in the Imperial College, and get a good name, Sun Zhihang, you are the eldest grandson of the old man, enter the Jiangning camp Afterwards, I learned from Sun Siming and Sun Sizong, Sun Siming and Sun Sizong, the two of you followed Master Su, made contributions and learned a lot, and now you have become court officials, I am very pleased, you must continue to persevere."

"The old man has one more sentence. The children and grandchildren of my grandson's family must remember that no matter what happens, no matter how big the accident happens, you must follow Mr. Su and never change. Remember, this is the old man's request. If you If you dare to disobey, don’t think about going underground to see the old man in the future.”

Su Tiancheng's body trembled slightly, he understood the meaning of Sun Chengzong's words.

He, who had been sitting beside him all this time, also stood up at this time.

Looking at the people kneeling in front, Su Tiancheng also knelt in front and spoke to Sun Chengzong.

"My lord's trust, this junior will never forget it for the rest of my life. This junior swears here that as long as this junior has a bite to eat, I will never forget my brothers. Any difficulties encountered by the Sun family, this junior will be responsible for resolving them. This is the responsibility of this junior. The future safety of the Sun family is the responsibility of the younger generation, and the younger generation makes an oath, if the oath is violated, the heavens will strike five thunderbolts."

Sun Chengzong forced himself to get up, and was about to help Su Tiancheng up. Sun Quan, who was kneeling in front of him, quickly helped Su Tiancheng up.

Su Tiancheng spoke to Sun Quan.

"All family members, please come in and meet." [

After saying this, Su Tiancheng turned to Sun Chengzong and left the bedroom.

Soon, everyone in the Sun's residence entered the bedroom one by one. Sun Chengzong's original wife, Mrs. Wang, died of illness when Sun Chengzong was 56 years old. Now, the task of managing the mansion naturally fell to Sun Quan and Sun.

A few minutes later, crying came from the bedroom.

On December 12rd of the [-]th year of Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong, the former chief assistant of the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, died of illness.

Su Tiancheng's tears also came out. Sun Chengzong's will explained everything. For such an old man who is loyal to Daming, saying these words means that he has experienced a huge ideological torture, and it means that Sun Chengzong has clearly seen what the Ming Dynasty is facing. Problems, some problems, may be completely resolved by the court law.

Of course, Su Tiancheng would not forget Sun Chengzong's request, and he must do it.

Soon, Wang Chengen came to the Sun Mansion.

Wang Chengen was the chief eunuch in the palace. Zhu Youjian sent Wang Chengen, which meant that he attached great importance to Sun Chengzong's death. Su Tiancheng predicted that Zhu Youjian would come soon.

Sure enough, after half an hour, Zhu Youjian came to the Sun Mansion.

Seeing Zhu Youjian shed tears, Su Tiancheng felt mixed emotions in his heart. Zhu Youjian is not a bad person. If it were hundreds of years later, he would definitely be a cute and sunny young man. Unfortunately, he was born in the royal family and became a The emperor had to think about too many things and had to fight for the interests of the royal family. (To be continued.
