Now that Cheng Ji's life is over, once this imperial seal comes out, the emperor's reputation will never be restored.
Just this jade seal can make those stupid people crazy.
He saw that the ministers, led by the chief minister, had all congratulated the emperor, and in his heart he could only pray that the emperor would be happy to receive the imperial seal and receive a lighter punishment.
Emperor Chongzhen looked at the ministers below and did not tell them to stand down.
He just glanced at them.
After they calmed down, he asked coldly: "A great victory on the grassland, but are there still any objections?"
No one responded, they all lowered their heads and said nothing.
This was actually the default.
Emperor Chongzhen did not let go, and continued to ask loudly: "You have to occupy the city, okay, Guihua City is now under the control of my Ming Dynasty, does it count?
Now that the Hetao is in the hands of my Ming Dynasty, does it count?
" Others were silent, but Wen Tiren, the first assistant, spoke loudly: "Your Majesty, for such a great achievement in opening up and expanding the territory, we can pray to the Imperial Ancestral Temple that the jade seal of the country will return to the Ming Dynasty, and we can pray to the Imperial Ancestral Temple that the people in the Qin and Jin border areas can live and work in peace and contentment." , you will not suffer the pain of Mongolian grass-grazing valleys, the Ming Dynasty will be proud of the grassland, and you can offer sacrifices to the Ancestral Temple."
If the previous war in Liaodong still allowed those with ulterior motives to find excuses, the current great victory on the grassland, listed one by one by Wen Tiren, is a real and real victory.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the Ancestral Temple is a great victory, and no one can quibble. .
"I second the proposal."
After the assistant minister Zhang Zhifa and Wen Tiren finished speaking, he said loudly with a bit of pride, "Such a great victory is the greatest victory since the founding of the country.
It should be sacrificed to the Ancestral Temple and made known to the world."
"The general seconded the proposal," Zu Dashou couldn't help but shouted happily.
Although the generals had basically no say in the court, Zu Dashou knew that the emperor wanted the generals to have a say.
Although he was not responsible for such a great victory, as a general, he was very happy.
With their leadership, other civil servants and military officers who did not participate in the impeachment also seconded the motion at first.
In the end, those civil servants who participated in the impeachment had to bow their heads and second the proposal.
This is the general trend.
However, listening to this, Emperor Chongzhen did not smile.
He still shouted loudly with a cold face: "How many people have been jumping up and down in the past few days, do you think I don't know?"
After hearing this, the scene suddenly became quiet again.
The officials involved in the impeachment knew what they were facing.
They lowered their heads and sweat kept coming.
However, those civil servants who did not participate in the impeachment had some thoughts in their minds, but they secretly wiped away cold sweat and were glad that they did not participate.
"I hate these people who maliciously slander the merits of the frontline soldiers and ignore their sacrifices and sacrifices to protect our country and our country."
Emperor Chongzhen's voice echoed over the Forbidden City, making those military generals puff up their chests. " Without those brave soldiers, how could you feel free to talk here?"
He barely gave his ministers a chance to react, and continued to vent his anger: "If you open and close your lips, you will erase the merits of the soldiers.
I once said that even if you are a censor, you must have evidence for what you say.
You are no longer allowed to do things based on rumors.
How many people remembered my words this time and relied on their own imaginations, ignoring the merits of the soldiers who fought with their lives.
Are you ashamed?
Are you worthy of the heroes in the Hall of Chung Martyrs?
" Having said this, he immediately nodded and said: "Where is the commander of the Jin Yiwei?"
"The final general is here."
Liu Xingzuo immediately turned around and faced Emperor Chongzhen with his fists clasped and waiting.
"Any official who impeached and slandered the Liaodong War, and who was supervised by guards in brocade robes and went to the Zhonglie Hall to pay homage and repent after retiring from the court, and who dared to disobey will be punished as guilty of torturing the captives."
"The last general obeys the order," Liu Xingzuo said loudly.
Many people were frightened when they heard this conversation.
In the past, Shanxi merchants were involved in prisons, and countless Shanxi merchant families were wiped out.
Of course, if Emperor Chongzhen's judgment is unreasonable, then the civil servants will definitely object.
But if you acknowledge the merits of the soldiers, then what you said before is slander.

Since it is a slander, it means attacking the soldiers of the border army and impeaching Governor Denglai and other leading figures.
It is tantamount to helping the enemies of the Ming Dynasty.
There is no way to refute the charge of complicity with prisoners.
While they were thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen was not done yet, and continued to loudly say: "In the future, Ming officials including Yushi Yanguan, if they dare to slander others or make trouble after hearing the news, they will be punished with slander.
I want them to know." , no matter who they are, they must be responsible for what they say."
In fact, generally speaking, although the Yushi Yanguan has the right to report the matter upon hearing the news, few people actually attack on what they hear.
Generally speaking, verification will be done first, and only when there is indeed evidence.
However, at a certain period of time, when the party struggle is fierce, then there is no need to worry about verification.
Anyway, if you have the power to take action, you can attack the other party however you want, and there won’t be much of a problem.
After Emperor Chongzhen said this, he shouted again: "Xue Ge Lao followed the law to collect the arrears, and not a single family was destroyed.
But in the memorials of some people, they have become such people who have done all kinds of evil, and their intentions are worthy of death."
At this point, he paused, glanced at the ministers and then said: "Without Mr.
Xue Ge's hard work, there would be no way to settle the victims of the Jin Dynasty, and there would be no way to provide food and grass for the grassland war.
If they all obeyed, You, a battle that you can obviously win will be dragged into defeat by you."
"Don't be afraid of enemies who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs."
Emperor Chongzhen quoted a famous saying from later generations in anger, "I give this sentence to you.
If you want to be a teammate like a pig, I will kill him.
Do you want to try it?"
Yes, when the imperial court’s major policies are implemented in the future, feel free to try to see if I can kill people.”
If it had been his previous words, his words would have definitely caused an uproar among the officials, and many people would have cited scriptures to refute them from all aspects.
After all, in the past, there were courtiers who refuted the emperor's calling him by his first name and it was a good talk.
Now Emperor Chongzhen's words are more embarrassing than impolite behaviors such as calling him by his first name.
But at this moment, under the blessing of Emperor Chongzhen's great victory in opening up territory, and under the influence of the aura of the imperial seal, no civil servant dared to refute it.
After saying these cruel words, Emperor Chongzhen stood up and walked away.
He neither said that the matter would be settled like this, nor did he say who he would deal with.
It is like hanging this knife over their heads, not knowing whether it will fall down, which makes many civil servants worried.
Once the emperor withdraws, he will withdraw from the court.
Liu Xingzuo took the list he had compiled in advance and began to read out their names and escort them to Zhonglie Hall.
Soon, a large group of civil servants, under the supervision of the majestic Jin Yiwei, walked out of the Forbidden City dejectedly and headed to the Ming Zhonglie Hall, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in Fengtianmen Square
