Borrow the day to change the day

() Since the East Factory was ordered by Emperor Chongzhen not to leave the forbidden gate in the first year of Chongzhen, it has been idle, occasionally running errands, and has no previous glory.This time, according to Emperor Chongzhen's imperial decree, they searched for the assassin's accomplices, and after a lot of effort, they exposed it.Except for the empress, concubine and Wang Cheng'en, there was no chaos in the palace, the palace was really chaotic.

In the beginning, it was only Cha Pingsu and his servant Wang Hengwu who walked around, but Wang Hengwu was almost killed by the first emperor and was rescued by Wei Zhongxian. The current Emperor Chongzhen is the one who attacked Wei Zhongxian. How many people dare to follow him? Wang Hengwu walked around.As a result, nothing was found out, so the scope began to expand, and people who were close to Wei Zhongxian's forces were started to be investigated.

In fact, this assassination incident was very simple. Wang Hengwu always regarded Wei Zhongxian as a lifesaver, but was killed by Emperor Chongzhen. It’s just that he had no chance before. It happened that Zhong Jinwei appeared and was assigned to the side hall where he was on duty. , and Emperor Chongzhen thought that the palace was relatively safe, and the matter of Zhong Jinwei surprised him again, including Wang Chengen, who did not pay attention to the safety and security of Emperor Chongzhen.

In addition, in the late Ming Dynasty, the discipline of the internal guards guarding the palace was already very lax. It’s just a rope hanging from the top.) It gave Wang Hengwu an excellent opportunity to assassinate Emperor Chongzhen. He accidentally obtained the poison of the poisonous throat-sealing insect when he was working in the Imperial Horse Supervisor. This is the reason for the assassination. all.

Naturally, the incident gradually began to deteriorate. Those who have vengeance revenge, those who have grievances complain, and those who have no grievances or grievances get rich.Of course, these are Cao Huachun's tacit consent, and some of them are even instructed by him. This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

On this day, Archie had just finished feeding Zhong Jinwei liquid food, and then, holding his cheeks, sat beside Zhong Jinwei's bed and looked at Zhong Jinwei's unconscious face.Now, Zhong Jinwei is regarded as the most important man in Archie's life, not to mention that Archie has been rewarded by Emperor Chongzhen to Zhong Jinwei. Just from the few days of getting along with each other, Archie feels that Zhong Jinwei does not regard her as a servant. A maid, or something similar, gave her the feeling that Zhong Jinwei treated her as an equal, or as a friend, or as someone who simply admired her.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but blush.In fact, Archie still has a kind of admiration for the strong, or the capable people in his heart, but he just didn't realize it.Archie silently prayed in his heart to Mantian Bodhisattva, gods and Buddhas, to make Zhong Jinwei recover quickly.

At this moment, the door of the side hall was violently pushed open, and two Dongchang fans broke in. The guards at the door shrank aside, obviously not daring to show any resistance.

One of the Dongchang fans said to Archie: "You are Archie, aren't you?"

Archie stood up in a little panic, and said in a low voice: "Yes." Then the fan said: "You have committed a crime, come with us."

Archie was stunned, and said: "He, what's the matter, I didn't do anything."

Fanzi waved the steel knife in his hand, and said: "The fellow assassins who assassinated His Majesty have already confessed. If you have a share, if you don't plead guilty, just follow us obediently, and you won't suffer a lot."

Archie froze in shock, and it took him a while to react. He panicked and said, "No, no, I'm not. I'm not an associate of the assassins. They must have misremembered."

In fact, there is no such thing as an assassin’s confession at all. Everything that can be scraped in the palace has been scraped. The two fans suddenly remembered that they heard that there was a court lady named Archie in the palace who was very ingenious. Carving some good things by myself and selling them outside the palace must have made a lot of money, so I came here to blackmail them.

Seeing that the little girl was almost frightened, the two fans looked at each other, and the one who hadn't spoken all this time said: "You don't look like an assassin's party, maybe it's a misunderstanding."

Archie nodded quickly.Fanzi didn't let Archie start, and continued: "But since we have a confession, even if we want to excuse you, it will be very troublesome. You also know that this matter will inevitably require that." After finishing speaking, he gestured with his hands It looks better than silver.

Now Archie understood that it was for money.But now the form is better than people, so it is like spending money to eliminate disasters, so I nodded, went to my room on the side, took out my savings, and said to the two fans: "Thank you two big brothers for your help, here is all I have Savings, help to accommodate."

The two fans looked at each other and smiled, thinking that they were quite good.But when he weighed it in his hand, his complexion changed, and he cursed fiercely at Archie: "It's just such a small amount of money, send the beggar!"

Archie took a step back in fright, and said aggrievedly: "I only have 42 taels of silver in total, and it's all here." For ordinary court ladies, it may be about the same, but it is rumored that Archie sold her sculptures and sold a lot Money, there is at least 100 taels, and there is no half of the money here. The two fans felt that they were being teased, and they became angry from embarrassment: "I sold so many things outside the palace for only this little money. Since you love money more than your life, I will fulfill you and take it away."

In fact, Archie is wronged. First, rumors are always exaggerated. Second, she does have more skills than other court ladies and can sell some money, but they are all entrusted to sell by guards. Those guards bully her as a weak woman. , I didn't understand the market in the palace for a long time, so I replied to her at a very low price and swallowed a large part of the money.

Archie knelt down directly, crying and said: "I really only have this little money, and I still have to take care of the young master. Please, my lords, please help me. My young master has saved the sage, and he is the most important thing for the sage. Now that I'm gone, there's no one to take care of the young master."

When the two fans took the prisoner away, they didn't hear any reason, so they didn't believe it, so they went forward and locked Archie away.

When passing the gate, Li Li and Zhu Guozhong (the previous two guards were punished because of poor guarding) who were guarding the gate summoned up their courage and said: "This, this, can't be taken away, he is the person arranged by the Holy One to take care of Mr. Zhong . " The two fans really looked annoyed, seeing that there were two young birds coming out, so they took them together.

At the gates of Zunhua and Shuntian Governor's Mansions, there are two memorial archways of Fu'an and Jingjing respectively. Soldiers with guns stand at the gates, looking solemn and solemn. When ordinary people have to pass through this road, they try to walk through the governor's gate and go the other way. Walk on one side of the curb.

On this day, the weather was as hot as ever, there were few pedestrians on the road, and the soldiers standing at the gate seemed lazy and unable to raise their spirits.Suddenly, there was a sound of horseshoes. At this time, he was still running on the road, either because he was crazy or because he was in a hurry.A few soldiers looked up, and from a distance, they saw from the clothes that a middle official and two Jinyiwei came running on horseback.The little leader who guards the gate is well-informed and knows that he is here to preach the imperial decree.Quickly arrange for a soldier to report inside, and at the same time arrange for people to go up to pick up the horse.

When they came close, several soldiers came forward to hold the reins of the horses, the middle officer didn't say much, and said directly: "There is a decree for Governor Shuntian Youqian Capital Censor Wang Yuanya to lead the way."

Wang Yuanya, courtesy name Puhe, a native of Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, was resting at the back at this time. Hearing the decree from the Holy Spirit, he hurriedly changed his clothes and placed in the incense hall, ready to receive the decree.After the Zhongguan came over, he stood still in the middle of the hall, and said: "The sage ordered that the governor Shuntian Youqiandu Censor Wang Yuanya will accept the order, and the others will wait to give way."

After everyone else had exited, two Jin Yiwei guarded the gate, and then stood on both sides of the gate.

Everything was ready, and the Zhongguan began to convey the oral order of Emperor Chongzhen: "There are changes in Liaodong. I think that the Jiankui are likely to bypass the Shanhaiguan Pass and use Mongolia to break in from Qing's defense area and attack the capital. Therefore, you should be vigilant and train your troops diligently. In case Zunhua is attacked by the Jianlu, we should stick to it, and I will mobilize the army to fight the Jianlu decisively and wipe out the Jianlu in one fell swoop. This is a top secret, and you can only know it."

Wang Yuanya was taken aback when he heard Emperor Chongzhen's oral order. He heard that Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao, had killed Mao Wenlong, the general soldier of Pidao, but why did the Holy Majesty speculate that Jianlu would attack my defense area instead of Yuan Chonghuan? It’s impossible to go around so far, and I’ve never been here before.

Wang Yuanya thought so, but Emperor Chongzhen said so, what else can workers do, they can only follow suit.So he said: "Follow the order."

After the decree was passed, the Zhongguan was about to leave, Wang Yuanya took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, stuffed it to the Zhongguan without a trace, and said: "Your Majesty is far-sighted, and I am deeply impressed by your majesty's foresight. Is there any other basis?"

"Our family doesn't know," the middle official took the benefits, said something in general, paused, and said in a low voice, "But I heard that there are strange people in the palace, so I would like to give advice to His Majesty." He didn't dare to talk about gods and monsters. It's the same way, if you dare to talk about gods and monsters, you must spit out demonic words to confuse the crowd.After finishing speaking, afraid that Wang Yuanya would ask again, she hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Wang Yuanya didn't care about the middle official who delivered the decree anymore, and she was thinking to herself: "A strange person, what a strange person, to give such a bad idea to the sage, and it will cost money and food if it is a good one. Now that the decree has been passed down, we must follow it. No, if it happens, if you don’t have any preparations, you’ll just walk away.” <Waiting for someone to come over for a military meeting.

The elimination of soldiers was carried out before, and the result was almost a mutiny. Now the world is not peaceful, and the elimination of soldiers is really helpless. It is because of the shortage of military pay, food and grass, and the imperial court can not afford it. It is a cheap strategy.Now it's time to prepare for battle again, and you can tell with your toes that it's time to fight for military pay and food.

Wang Yuanya also had a bit of military pay and food in his hands, which was the only benefit of eliminating troops before, and it was also the reason why he did not object to the oral order of Emperor Chongzhen.As soon as the generals arrived, they broke out after hearing what Wang Yuanya said.This one said that the soldiers under him were lying on the bed hungry and only swallowed saliva, saving food, how could they have spare energy for training; I made it up again and again, and now I'm showing my ass. Let's see if I want to post something basic; anyway, there are only a bunch of reasons, and the military seminar has become a complaint meeting.You governor can train soldiers, first meet the basic conditions.

Wang Yuanya also depended on these people for his work, and he had anticipated their reaction, so he began to bargain, and finally ordered a soldier to practice for 10 days, and he would not receive them at night and spread them on the Mongolian grassland.How much military pay, food and grass are the price.

At the end of the military meeting, Wang Yuanya made a bitter face, feeling sorry for the military supplies that had been accumulated with great difficulty; while the generals went back happily, how many of these things the governor gave would actually reach the hands of the soldiers, seeing the smiles on their faces knew.
