If what the crown prince in front of him said is true, then the current situation is really like what he said, and the Ming Dynasty is already in danger.
Now Zhu Shangwu understands the virtues of the ministers in the DPRK.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the blue and tell yourself the good news but not the bad news, not letting yourself know the real situation in the outside world at all.
The servants around me probably did not dare to tell the truth to themselves because they were afraid of offending these people.
If you continue to be so confused, you may die without knowing what is happening outside.
It¡¯s just like what happened in Liaodong this time.
The reason why they told themselves was because the matter in Liaodong was too big and they did not dare to hide it at all. In addition, the Jurchen army besieged the city, and I couldn't hide it at all, so I told myself.
¡°If Liaodong had resisted the Jurchen army and there was no dispute over pay, it is unlikely that the elders and courtiers would have suppressed this matter and not let themselves know about it.
¡°In fact, Zhu Shangwu is not stupid at all, it¡¯s just that he doesn¡¯t want to use his brain to think.
And his mind is not on this aspect, but on his favorite erotic paintings.
¡°If his energy and brain were used on the right path, then the courtiers and elders would not bully him like this.
Of course, if Zhu Shangwu behaves very smartly, the throne may not be his.
In the Ming Dynasty in another time and space, among the emperors who died mysteriously, were there no shadows of ministers behind them?
No one would believe this.
But if you think about conspiracy theories, it¡¯s not easy to talk about.
¡°The presence of an emperor who is not very smart and is easy to fool is beneficial to everyone.
This is why Zhu Shangwu became emperor very smoothly.
"There is He Renlong in Shaanxi, so there shouldn't be any big problem."
Zhao Hongyu mentioned Shaanxi, and Zhu Shangwu suddenly thought of a person.
There was a period of time when this person¡¯s name would always be mentioned by ministers in the morning.
Therefore, Zhu Shangwu has a clear memory of He Renlong.
"He Renlong?"
Zhao Hongyu curled his lips with a look of disdain on his face.
"What, is there a problem?"
When Zhu Shangwu saw Zhao Hongyu¡¯s reaction, he immediately knew that he had something to say.
¡°I¡¯ve heard of this person before, and he seems to have a pretty good reputation. Since I came here in the capital, I¡¯ve heard people talking about this person often in the teahouse.¡±
Zhao Hongyu responded with a smile.
Yes, during the period when Zhao Hongyu lived in the capital, he often wandered outside in the early days, such as teahouses and places where he listened to storytelling.
This kind of place has the most people coming and going, and businessmen from all over the place. Sitting in this kind of place, Zhao Hongyu can get a lot of useful information from their chats.
? One of them is about this He Renlong.
About this He Renlong, Zhao Hongyu knew something about it, but not so clearly.
What he only knew was that there was such a famous figure in history, and that he was killed by Sun Chuanting.
But this happened in another time and space in history, and in this time and space, it seems that this thing has not happened yet.
But one thing about He Renlong in this time and space is the same as the one in another time and space. They are the kind of people who use their troops to kill people indiscriminately in order to pretend to be military merits.
His team was timid when fighting bandits, but they were very brave when killing common people.
And just like in another time and space, He Renlong also retreated without authorization despite the fifth military order before the formation, resulting in the death of the commander at the time, Mr. Lin.
However, He Renlong followed the path of a certain pavilion elder in the imperial court and recruited foreign aid, so he had nothing to fear.
And as his strength grows, now in the Tongguan area of ??Shaanxi Province, He Renlong simply uses the banner of the He Family Army, which shows his arrogance.
"The cabinet minister he relied on in the court discounted the impeachment memorial of He Renlong by local Shaanxi officials and concealed many things about He Renlong's indiscriminate killing of innocent people.
And he deceived Zhu Shangwu, saying that he congratulated Renlong for his meritorious service in the battle, and promoted him to the rank of chief military officer of Tongguan.
In Shaanxi, Tongguan is an important town, and the chief military officer here has quite a lot of power, almost as much as the governor.
This shows how much benefit He Renlong received.
But Zhu Shangwu didn¡¯t know about his bad things.
If he had known, He Renlong would not have risen so quickly.
To put it bluntly, this is all the result of the elder He Renlong took refuge in.
If it weren¡¯t for that pavilion elder, how could He Renlong, a mere martial artist, have risen up so fast.
You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, the nobles were noble and the military was light.
Hearing that the old hairdresser had been blowing a lot, Zhu Shangwu naturally remembered He Renlong and had a very good sense of him.
¡°After all, he is very good at fighting.
It is said that there are Herenlong in Shaanxi, and the refugee army has been suppressed.
Zhu Shangwu must have a good impression of such a meritorious minister.
However, it seems that this is not what the American crown prince means.
"Oh, what kind of person is He Renlong according to rumors?"
Zhu Shangwu asked curiously.
"What kind of person does Your Highness think General He Renlong He is?"
Rather than answering Zhu Shangwu directly, Zhao Hongyu asked a question instead.
Zhu Shangwu replied: "Capable minister, he suppressed the civil unrest in Shaanxi. Otherwise, Shaanxi would not be stable at all. When the Jurchen army besieged the city, there might be some trouble. And if Shaanxi is unstable, Henan will be unstable. If Henan is unstable, it will be dangerous for the capital."
At this time, Zhu Shangwu still believed that Shaanxi was stable.
In fact, he doesn¡¯t know at all that the entire Shaanxi Province is now in a state of decay. Refugee rebels are everywhere, and the Shaanxi official army cannot suppress them at all.
He Renlong was in Tongguan, but the refugee rebels didn't go to his territory at all, and He Renlong was happy about it.
It can be said that He Renlong is raising bandits now, but Zhu Shangwu doesn't know this.
"But the elders and court officials did know this very well, but they didn't tell Zhu Shangwu.
¡° Moreover, there is also a chain of interests here, so everyone will be less likely to tell the truth.
You know, there are refugee rebels all over Shaanxi, and the whole territory of Shaanxi is on fire. The threat has even spread to Henan. In order to exterminate the refugee rebels, all the money of the Ministry of Revenue has been spent on this.
Of one million taels of silver, 600,000 taels may have been misappropriated by officials at all levels, and the remaining 400,000 taels may not necessarily be used to exterminate bandits.
¡°Everyone has made enough money in this area, so they turned a blind eye to He Renlong¡¯s actions.
At the same time, He Renlong cannot always stay in Tongguan.
Therefore, in order to make business, he sent troops to rob civilians in Shaanxi, and at the same time, he still had their heads as his military exploits.
The officers and soldiers under He Renlong's command are even more ferocious than those refugee bandits when doing such things.
Therefore, Shaanxi is almost empty.
Zhao Hongyu has heard a lot of news like this.
Because there are many bankrupt refugees from Shaanxi inside and outside the capital city.
This is all because they can no longer stay in Shaanxi, so they came to the capital.
Although they could stay in Henan, in order to prevent them from coming into contact with the rebels, Henan officials drove them to the capital.
Throughout Shaanxi and even Henan, soldiers are thieves and thieves are soldiers. You can't tell who is good and who is bad.
And the initiator of all this is the famous He Renlong, the commander-in-chief of Tongguan.
"According to His Majesty's wishes, this General He Ren Long He is a capable person." Zhao Hongyu looked at Zhu Shangwu with a strange expression.
Zhu Shangwu was a little uneasy when he was stared at by Zhao Hongyu's expression.
"Why, isn't it? That's what the court officials said to me."
Um!
Now the two of them talk more normally, and they are no longer called brother and brother in the market.
The servants around are finally feeling a little more comfortable now. Listening to the two calling each other brother and brother, to be honest, they really feel awkward.
"There are merchants from Shaanxi. According to them, General Long He is a ruthless man. It is said that he set up troops to rob the people, and even cut off the heads of the people to receive rewards as rogues. In Shaanxi, All the officials were frightened when they saw him, even he was the Supreme Emperor of Shaanxi"
Snapped!
Zhu ShangwuHe threw the tea cup next to him on the ground, his face contorted with anger.
"This is real!"
Zhu Shangwu couldn't believe all this, because he believed what the courtiers said.
"Of course it's true. There are many refugees from Shaanxi in the capital. Your Majesty can find out just by asking anyone."
Zhao Hongyu said to Zhu Shangwu seriously.
"This is unreasonable! He Renlong deserves to be killed!"
"Not only should he be killed, he should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts." Zhao Hongyu didn't think it was a big deal and continued to add fuel to the fire. "It was He Renlong who made Shaanxi's ten-household and nine-empty people miserable. It was also he who gave the military generals of the Ming Dynasty a bad start, causing the military generals in various towns to swarm their own troops and threaten the imperial court. Now here in Liaodong Isn¡¯t the situation like this?¡±
To be honest, Zhao Hongyu, as an 'outsider', worries about this matter, which is completely nonsense in the eyes of others.
You said that you, a person from America, do what you want to do with the affairs of the Ming Dynasty.
Does this have anything to do with you?
No!
Although the servants around them lowered their heads, they were all thinking so secretly in their hearts.
In their view, the crown prince from America is simply a dog meddling in other people's business.
When will it be your turn to talk about our Ming Dynasty affairs? Who do you think you are? You are so unreasonable!
"Now the military generals in various parts of Liaodong are shutting themselves up and not daring to fight the Jurchens at all. This has led to the Jurchens traveling around Liaodong as if they were at home"
"Zhao Hongyu is talking about vomiting and spitting.
After a while, Zhu Shangwu opened his mouth and asked a question.
"Why are you so concerned about Daming's affairs?"
¡°Ouch, I¡¯ve talked too much!
When Zhao Hongyu heard this, he was stunned and thought to himself. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
