The civil and military officials listened attentively, seeming to shout Wan Sheng and Long Live After getting a little closer, many people heard clearly "The great victory on the grassland, the Ming Dynasty wiped out 40,000 enemies, the great victory on the grassland, the Chahar tribe was exterminated, the great victory on the grassland" Generally, for important news of victory, the messenger will shout the news of victory along the way, so that everyone who hears it along the way will rejoice and promote the military power of the Ming Dynasty.
The noise that I heard just now was not only coming from the Forbidden City, but also coming from the people outside the Forbidden City who were cheering.
"What, the Great Victory on the Grassland?"
An official near the palace gate looked in disbelief, thinking he heard wrongly.
When the colleague next to him heard what he said, he was convinced that he heard it correctly and replied: "It seems that 40,000 enemies were annihilated and the Chahar tribe was exterminated."
While they were whispering, the messenger of victory was getting closer and closer, and finally he hurried over under the guidance of a chamberlain.
All civil and military officials immediately focused their attention on the messenger.
This time, the messenger came not just from one person, but from six people.
I saw the current messenger walking forward with the good news in his hand, and the five people following him were holding five boxes in their hands.
When they arrived in front of the imperial court, six messengers knelt down and announced their victory loudly: "Lin Dan Khan's troops invaded our border and killed our border residents.
The governor of Yansui went out to fight according to the order, surrounded and annihilated nearly 40,000 Chahar troops, and seized countless cattle, horses and sheep."
Civil and military officials, regardless of whether they know the military or not, know one thing.
When did the Ming Dynasty have such great results in its war against the Mongols?
Listening to the messenger's report, they always felt that it seemed impossible that the Mongols could not defeat the Mongols on the grassland.
Can't you run away?
The expressions on the faces of these people present were almost all of surprise, or surprise.
Some civil servants even thought that in order to protect those traitors, the emperor did not hesitate to let Governor Yansui lie about his military achievements.
After the first messenger finished reporting loudly, he handed over the victory document with both hands, and the chamberlain took it.
The second messenger raised his hands and shouted loudly: "Here is Lin Dan Khan's head."
The chamberlain next to him immediately stepped forward, opened the lid, and revealed a head.
"What, it's really Lin Dan Khan's head."
Many civil servants were surprised when they heard this.
They couldn't help but craned their necks to look over, trying to see clearly what Lin Dan Khan, who was born in the golden family, looked like.
I thought back then, the Ming sect People went to see Lin Dan Khan and wanted to join hands to deal with Jianlu, but Lin Dan Khan ignored him and asked for a high price.
He had the power of the Mongol Khan, but now he is already a dead man.
At this moment, Cheng Jiming shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, I want to test it on the spot."
Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but have a sneer on his face.
At this time, he still wants to fight to the death, just like your wish, so that you can give up: "Just test it if you want.
Who else has seen Lin Danhan?"
You can check it out” After hearing this, in addition to Cheng Jiming, three other civil servants and a military general had met Lin Dan Khan before and immediately went up to verify.
"How about it, is there any lie?"
Emperor Chongzhen shouted coldly when he saw them whispering in front of their heads.
"Your Majesty, the general has confirmed it."
The general responded immediately.
However, the three civil servants, under Cheng Jiming's wink, just replied: "Your Majesty, it seems a bit similar, but also a bit different.
I am incompetent."
There will naturally be a difference between a head that has been stored for many days and one that was alive.
Moreover, these officials are not very familiar with Lin Danhan, so what they say is somewhat reasonable.
Emperor Chongzhen was too lazy to pay attention to them.
He waved his hand and a third messenger came forward: "Here is the head of Ezhe, the crown prince of the Chahar tribe."
"The head of the bandit leader Wang Jiayin is here."
"Here is the head of the leader of the bandits for his own use."
The next few heads are not as important as the head of Lin Danhan.
But even so, Cheng Jiming and others were not willing to give in, and circled around the heads again and again.
The last messenger was a child.

Although he was a bit tall, he could tell at a glance that he was no more than a teenager.
The box in his hand was smaller, and it was obvious at first glance that it was not a head.
Before the little messenger could report, Emperor Chongzhen shouted: "I have seen the head, what else can I say?"
"Your Majesty, I think this military exploit is quite strange.
It needs to be verified before commenting, so as not to make the people laugh like the Liaodong War again."
Cheng Jiming refused to admit it.
In fact, he already believed it in his heart.
But if he admitted it on the spot, what would happen before?
The emperor was already furious and would definitely punish the person who initiated the impeachment this time.
Not to mention coveting the position of chief minister, he certainly couldn't keep his position as assistant minister.
And if the results of the battle are verified, no matter who is sent, the time will be wasted just by going back and forth.
If you find other reasons to delay, the impact of what was originally a great victory will slowly dissipate.
Waiting until then, it will be very advantageous to discuss this matter again.
The other civil servants were all human beings, so they didn't know what Cheng Jiming was thinking.
Seeing that they were about to be completely defeated, they naturally reacted the same way as Cheng Jiming, and they all agreed.
As for the previous military commander's positive opinion, they had already ignored it.
When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he couldn't help but sneered, looked at the messenger and nodded slightly.
So, the leading messenger immediately loudly reported: "Your Majesty, the left wing generals of the Chahar Department, Tashhai Saisan and Hulu Kesaisan, surrendered to our Ming Dynasty, and are now waiting outside the palace to plead guilty."
"Pass" Emperor Chongzhen immediately issued an order.
When Cheng Jiming and others heard this, why were there still alive people and two left-wing general managers?
How could this be delayed?
You must know that these two left-wing general managers were important ministers under Lin Dan Khan.
Most of the envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty were received and introduced to Lin Dan Khan by one of them.
If they were really these two people, they would have met so many people that they wouldn’t be able to lie to their faces and say they were fakes.
In fact, when Tashi Haisesang and Huluksesan appeared in front of them, it could be seen from their behavior that they were definitely in a superior position before.
But now he became humble.
They kept their posture very low, shouted long live, and called themselves barbarian sinners, which made those who had dealt with them before feel relieved.
Seeing this, Cheng Jiming couldn't help but lower his head.
Even if the sweat dripped from his forehead, he didn't even think of wiping it off.
At some point, he was suddenly brought back to his senses by the noise.
"The Jade Seal of Chuan Guo turned out to be the Jade Seal of Chuan Guo" "No way, it's my regret since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.
Today I actually saw the jade seal passed down from the country return to the Central Plains."
"Your Majesty is truly destined.
It was my turn to revive the Ming Dynasty, and it actually made up for Taizu's regrets."
"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live" "" Amid the surprise, Cheng Jiming stared blankly at the box held high in the hand of the last little messenger: a square jade seal with one corner filled with gold:
