Wanli 1592

Chapter 581 Imperial Crisis
Jinyiwei is the emperor's pro-army, and it is the only military force that can be directly commanded after several generations of emperors took back through the eunuchs after the Tumu Fortress Change. It is also the last psychological defense line of many Ming emperors for their own safety. If you don't guarantee it, it's over.

The emperor's uneasiness will erupt quickly, like a volcanic eruption, and there will be no room for any relaxation, and he will definitely not continue to compromise.

Furthermore, Jinyiwei and Dongchang were originally products that survived the confrontation between the imperial power and the civil official group.

Things like Xichang and Neichang were all abolished under the background of the operation of the civil official group and the decline of imperial power. The two generations of Chenghua and Zhengde emperors who were determined to seize power were also hacked out of Xiang. Now there are only Jinyiwei and Dongchang. Chang Yiwei is still under the control of the emperor.

And now even Jinyiwei and Dongchang were infiltrated and divided by the civil official group, and they hid such an extremely important message from themselves. If it wasn't for the direct contact with Xiao Ruxun this time, I guess I would have been kept from it for a lifetime.

Think about it this way, how many things in the world do you not know?Those bastards don't want to send mine tax eunuchs everywhere, are they really worried that some things will be manipulated by the eunuchs and they will become their fate?

There is such a problem in the Ming Dynasty, and even Zhu Yijun doesn't know whether it is an individual phenomenon or a group phenomenon. If it is an individual phenomenon, then there is still room for recovery. If it is a group phenomenon, then Zhu Yijun can understand why the financial affairs of the Ming Dynasty Since Zhang Juzheng, the situation has gone downhill.

Jinyiwei, Dongchang, was established to protect the imperial power, relying on the emperor to fight against the ministers, so the candidates for the Dongchang factory supervisor are all trusted eunuchs around the emperor, absolute confidantes, and there are many candidates for the commander of Jinyiwei A person who has nothing to worry about and cannot be threatened.

And now, even these two confidantes of the emperor have been corrupted?
Zhu Yijun really had the urge to pull the trigger and kill these two people on the spot, but he immediately thought that the musket killing was too loud, which might cause unnecessary speculation. Regarding the planned matter, Zhu Yijun's original trust in the people around him has decreased again.

No, it can't be killed like this, at least not here.

Just at this moment, Luo Sigong shouted in fear, "I have something to say, Your Majesty, please forgive me." Zhu Yijun took advantage of the situation and shouted angrily: "Say!"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty may not know, it's not that I don't want to share your worries for His Majesty. As the commander of Jinyiwei, I am His Majesty's confidant and His Majesty's pro-army. There is no reason to betray His Majesty. It is because Shanxi Shanxi Merchants are too powerful and have too much foundation." Shen, just a little bit of information from Jin Yiwei, they can't move them at all, and Chen... Chen will definitely die without a place to bury him!"

"what?!"

Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned pale with shock.

"You are the commander of Jinyiwei, without my order! Who dares to touch you?!"

"Your Majesty! Outside the imperial palace, murderous intentions are everywhere! Not only Shanxi merchants, but also merchant gangs from all over the world. Every gang is grouped together. Even if you want to pull out carrots, you can still bring out big lumps of mud. That is not something that the ministers can solve." , in the whole world, only His Majesty can deal with it! But right now... right now... If Your Majesty can't make all the ministers bow their heads and obey their ears, I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about them!"

Luo Sigong knelt down on the ground and said in tears.

In order to survive, Luo Sigong didn't care about it, and said a lot of things that made Zhang Jing feel terrified. Zhang Jing was really afraid that Zhu Yijun could not help but kill them both. Anyway, Zhu Yijun still has the right to kill eunuchs. Yes, as for the commander of Jin Yiwei, that's even more so.

What Luo Sigong said was indeed true. If it was Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, even Zhu Zhanji, he might have the Commander of Jin Yiwei work for him, but Zhu Yijun, a symbolic emperor with power left behind, really doesn't have much power to make his subordinates Have confidence in him, and thus work hard for him.

The boss at the head can't protect himself, and it's no wonder the younger brother at the bottom is trying to find another way. Zhu Yijun is no stranger to this, just like the fate of Zhang Juzheng's henchmen after Zhang Juzheng's death, they are all the same.

It's just that Zhu Yijun never thought that Luo Sigong would actually say this, which hurt the emperor's fragile self-esteem, and was such a treason.

In a fit of rage, Zhu Yijun kicked Luo Sigong away, and shouted angrily: "You bastard! How dare you insult me!!"

Luo Sigong quickly got up and knelt down on the ground, begging for mercy with tears in his eyes.

"I don't dare! I don't dare! Your Majesty! I am absolutely loyal to you!"

Zhu Yijun was panting violently, and the hand holding the gun was trembling constantly.

"Zhang Jing, you know all these things, right?"

Zhu Yijun suddenly pointed his gun at Zhang Jing, who turned pale with fright.

"Your Majesty! This old slave is also loyal to you! Loyal!"

Zhu Yijun closed his eyes and gritted his teeth fiercely.

"They are all loyal to me! But they hide such important things from me! Is this your loyalty?!"

Zhang Jing and Luo Sigong really want to say something - yes, Your Majesty, this is our loyalty.

Tell you something that you can't solve at all, what else can you do but get angry?If the news leaks out, we won't be able to live at all, and you will be even more angry at that time, Your Majesty, it's rare to be confused!
The two just kowtowed without saying a word. At this moment, it was meaningless to say anything, life or death was all in the emperor's mind.

After a long time, Zhu Yijun dejectedly put down the gun in his hand.

He didn't intend to kill people, Luo Sigong and Zhang Jing, he didn't intend to kill them either.

Because he has no other helpers.

As the supreme being in the world, but he doesn't even have the confidence to make people around him think that he is doing his best. This supreme is really a failure.

So what if Zhang Jing and Luo Sigong were killed?I don't have enough power, and the elected people still do things like this.

"Get out! Get away from me, get out immediately! You are not allowed to speak out about today's events. If you leak any news, I will make your life worse than death."

Zhu Yijun stared at Zhang Jing and Luo Sigong.

Zhang Jing and Luo Sigong were so frightened that their legs went limp. When they first heard that the emperor was not going to kill anyone, they raised their heads to look at the emperor in disbelief. Seeing the emperor's eyes, the two of them felt a chill in their hearts, and quickly scrambled away. palace.

"Stand back, I want to be alone."

Zhu Yijun waved his hand, and Wang De hurriedly called his subordinates to leave quickly. After leaving the palace, Wang De breathed a sigh of relief.

God, if this is a dead person, how can it happen!
In the palace, Zhu Yijun who was alone suddenly felt cold all over his body.

As an emperor, in the end, even the commander of Jinyiwei and the governor of the East Factory had reservations about him, but there was only one person who really had no reservations about him.

As an emperor, Zhu Yijun really felt that he had failed very much. From the beginning of failure until now, even his mother could easily suppress him, but he was powerless to resist.

What my mother said was right, I can't even deal with an old woman, what can I do to fight against those elites who have been killed out of hundreds of thousands of people?They took away most of the power that originally belonged to the emperor, but what can they do as the emperor?
Kong has an ambition, but lacks the ability to match it, and Zhu Yijun feels that he is really a failure.

And the only consolation is probably...

Zhu Yijun picked up the note.

I don't have that ability, but I know people, and promoted Xiao Ruxun. What Xiao Ruxun gave back to me was unreserved loyalty, multiple victories, and those silver coins...

Zhu Yijun suddenly realized a very important detail.
