Chapter 554 Devious Public Opinion
The capital, the Imperial Study Room in the Forbidden City, where Emperor Chongzhen followed the grassland battle, knowing that a big victory would be impossible, but he still didn't know what the final result would be?
At this moment, a servant reported that Liu Xingzuo, the commander of Jinyiwei, asked to see him.After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen withdrew from the chat group, and immediately ordered him to have an audience.

People who take the initiative to meet like this usually have something to do.In particular, I let Liu Xingzuo rest for a few days, and let him come to see me when he spends more time with his family, there must be something wrong.Emperor Chongzhen thought so, and he was a little curious about what would happen to Liu Xingzuo!
Sure enough, Liu Xingzuo was led in by the servant with a serious face. After seeing the ceremony, he immediately presented a memorial and solemnly played: "Your Majesty, there are Xiao Xiaoxiao in the capital city who have started to make trouble, and the final investigation will be on the memorial. Please Your Majesty bestows a driver's letter, let the last general go and fetch him!"

According to the system of the Ming Dynasty, factory guards must have a driving ticket to arrest people.That is to say, the emperor granted a driving post to act, and the supervisor of ceremonies issued the post and stamped it with a seal. It must also be "signed" by the criminal department, and a detailed approval document must be signed before the person can be taken.

But this system has been slowly destroyed since the Jiajing period, which is also related to the strength of the factory guards.However, the current Emperor Chongzhen didn't think about destroying him. He still stipulated that the factory guards must strictly follow the system to arrest people.

The reason for doing this is because he understands that the factory guard is a knife in his hand.This knife is very sharp, if you use it well, it will be a great help to ZTE Daming; if you don't use it well, you will lose the restraint, and you may hurt yourself in reverse.

Although from the current point of view, Jin Yiwei is in the hands of Liu Xingzuo, and the admiral of Dongchang is Wang Chengen, both of them are trustworthy people.But the days to come will be long, and who can ensure that they will always be loyal and not be eroded by power.

In fact, to be honest, Emperor Chongzhen didn't fully grasp it.And this was originally the fault of Emperor Chongzhen.

When Emperor Chongzhen first came to the throne, he reused members of the Donglin party and grounded the factory guards, which was useless.Later, Emperor Chongzhen, who came through his soul, reactivated the factory guards, and most of them were detectives and personnel appointments and dismissals.These were originally directly controlled by the emperor, but it was nothing.However, the position given by the criminal department was very sensitive. The Emperor Chongzhen hadn't found a suitable opportunity to replace him with someone he was satisfied with in the past six months.

At this time, after hearing Liu Xingzuo's words, Emperor Chongzhen also became serious, and immediately took the memorial forwarded by the servant and read it.

It turned out that the Jinyiwei Investigation Office learned that there is already a kind of speech on the streets of the capital, criticizing the previous Liaodong War.

You know, Emperor Chongzhen clearly affirmed the Liaodong War, and even asked the chief assistant, Wen Tiren, to lead all the civil and military officials to the city gate to welcome the triumphant soldiers.But today's streets are slandering this war. It is obvious that people with ulterior motives are playing tricks.Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to deny this kind of war that has been affirmed.

This kind of ulterior motive said that the battle of Liaodong was actually opportunistic, and it was only because of the absence of the Jianlu army that such a victory was achieved.And what's the use of winning Liaoyang, Anshan Post Fort, etc. It's not still in the hands of Jianlu, and there is no difference in the result of taking it or not.

Also, they said that the hussar battalion didn't dare to fight Jianlu at all, but in fact they didn't have that ability.Otherwise, why not have a serious fight with Jianlu.Also, if it weren't for the Guan Ning army to go to meet them, they wouldn't even be able to escape, so it's embarrassing to say that Liaodong has won a big victory!

Emperor Chongzhen became angry when he saw it. He understood that this specious statement was very confusing to some ordinary people who didn't know the truth and couldn't think for themselves.He suppressed his anger and continued to look at the memorial.

In these remarks, North Korea was even completely surrendered to Jianlu. The fact that Ming lost a vassal state also depended on the Dongjiang Ming army.It is said that the governor of Denglai was not effective in rescue, and that North Korea was under the jurisdiction of the governor of Denglai, but was rebelled by others, and then fell into the hands of Jianlu.

According to the meaning of these remarks on the street, Governor Denglai's war this time was not only useless, but also successful.The emperor was young and ignorant, and the governor of Denglai and the others took a war that was not a victory at all, and turned it into a big victory.The imperial court managed to get some money, but it was still used in this kind of exaggerated military affairs, which was really controlled by treacherous officials in the imperial court.

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help laughing angrily when he saw this.These remarks are not so strong as to reverse the truth!
North Korea is a pig teammate. It has been warned by Daming, but it still fell without precaution after being allowed to persist for a while.This is a bloody spout!
The hussars battalion had obviously dealt a heavy blow to Jianlu, greatly weakening Jianlu's overall strength, and boosted the confidence of the Hannu who had fallen in Liaodong, but they were distorted by them as false leaders, as if they could only steal chickens and dogs, and they almost didn't escape.

It can be seen from these remarks that some people even began to attack ministers other than Governor Deng Lai, such as Wen Tiren, the chief minister of the cabinet, saying that if such a thing happened, he should be held accountable first.There is also old Xue Guoguan, who connives at the warriors to make troubles, runs rampant in the village, uses the excuse of recovering the owed taxes, and makes the people miserable.If this kind of thing continues, Shanxi will be in chaos.And if Shanxi is in chaos, it will surely affect the capital, even the capital.

Emperor Chongzhen suppressed his anger and continued to look down.In the second half of the memorial, Jin Yiwei secretly mobilized the underground forces of the capital, that is, the gangs controlled by Wu Ergou to investigate.The instigator of these remarks has not been found out, but from the analysis of clues, these remarks may have something to do with some imperial historians or even important ministers.At least one of the people Jin Yiwei targeted was a censor.

What Liu Xingzuo meant was to ask Jin Yiwei to arrest the censor first, and use some methods in the imperial prison to start the investigation from the censor.

After reading it, Emperor Chongzhen realized that the spreaders of these remarks were definitely those whose interests had been damaged before.After they regained their strength, they began to counterattack.

Thinking of this, he looked at the second half of the memorial and sneered in his heart.The ultimate goal of these remarks is probably still above the court situation.Was he thinking of bringing down the first assistant Wen Tiren, or the assistant minister Xue Guoguan?
Thinking back to the time before, many people made memorials to impeach Xue Guoguan for the Shanxi matter. At that time, I directly announced that I would send these memorials to Xue Guoguan and let him investigate the matter himself, so as to warn them that this kind of impeachment was a waste of effort.

Unexpectedly, they saw that impeachment was ineffective, and they knew to start with controlling public opinion, first create public opinion to continue to promote this matter!
Hehe, I'm going to satisfy you this time!Emperor Chongzhen pinched the memorial and thought so.

 There should be more updates tonight!
