There are only two uncles and sisters-in-law left here, and the rest of the idle are far away, and at this time, Chongzhen expressed his worries to a sister-in-law who respects her mother.
"In fact, the Beijing camp is unavailable, the Qinwang army is unavailable, Guanning defected again, Xuanda was defeated again, the Gyeonggi military has been eroded, and now Lu Hanqiang has 30,000 infantry troops, 5,000 cavalry, in Shanxi Wutai Chen soldiers, Qinwang is the most fast and convenient, especially his 30,000 infantry army has just experienced blood and fire, and the combat effectiveness is not compared with the officials and soldiers in Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi and other places, and the 5,000 cavalry is in the steppe with hundreds of thousands of Mongolian tribes and the Tartar elite who later returned to fight for more than a month, it is the blood and fire that has been cultivated, so it can completely fight with Jiannu."
Empress Zhang nodded in agreement.
Although Empress Zhang adheres to her duty and never interferes in political affairs, it does not mean that she does not know the current court affairs, Cao Huachun, who is the head of the palace, every time she comes to her palace, she has to intentionally or unintentionally tell her about the situation of the court meeting and the movement of the court, and at the same time, the current Daming News has a large number of news published every day, and the news on it is actually more real and detailed than the official excerpts, and Lu Hanqiang's actions and Lu Hanqiang's strength are all announced clearly and clearly, therefore, What Chongzhen said is also the actual situation, in Queen Zhang's view, this is actually Lu Hanqiang's preparation for King Qin's entry into Beijing, but Lu Hanqiang is an understanding person, and he abides by his duty before the emperor's decree.
"Also, Lu Hanqiang is not only strong and strong, but also has countless money and grain in hand, he not only exchanged coke for countless southern grain to help countless victims, so that the situation in Shanxi will not continue to erode, but also decisively confiscated the eight Jin merchants who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and the grain he reported alone was 3 million stones, and the silver was 5 million taels."
"So much abomination."
The hatefulness that Empress Zhang said did not refer to Lu Hanqiang, but to the eight Jin merchants who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country.
"After he put down the rebellion in Shanxi in one fell swoop, he had no worries."
"And Lu Hanqiang is so strong, strong and strong, with enough money and food, and no worries, why don't you call him King Qin," Empress Zhang asked lightly.
Chongzhen shook his head slightly, and then glanced at Cao Huachun who was standing in the distance, Cao Huachun immediately retreated ten steps out again, and then looked at the ground with low eyebrows.
At this time, Chongzhen's expression was gloomy, and he lowered his voice even lower, so that only Zeng and his sister-in-law could hear it: "It is precisely because of this that I dare not easily summon him King Qin."
"In front of my sister-in-law, Chongzhen never used the awkward title of me, and naturally called me as before, which made Queen Zhang infinitely happy in her heart, this little uncle who protected him with his life, no matter how mean and unkind he was to the outside, but he was still very respectful and kind to himself.
Retracting the fluttering thoughts, Empress Zhang still asked lightly: "Why" "Now there are 100,000 Jiannu abuses outside, and the safety of the capital can only rely on Jingying, and the old Guogong of Jingying sits in the town, holding 200,000 troops, and these 200,000 troops at the beginning of the war, they got the million military salaries provided by our royal firms, which stabilized the situation, and where did this military salary come from, everyone knows that this is the dividends of the firm that Lu Hanqiang withstood Wang Chengen's request, so the soldiers of the Beijing camp think that the money and food I gave are deserved, and they can get this arrears but it is Lu Hanqiang's credit, Therefore, everyone is grateful for Lu Hanqiang's goodness. ” Empress Zhang was speechless for a while, this is the people's heart, when the firm paid dividends, she sent a message to Wang Chengen through Cao Huachun, who was a part-time steward of her palace, hoping to get a windfall of 500,000 dividends, so she took out a sum of money and appeased Jingying first, after all, Jingying is the biggest reliance of the royal family, and it is also the last shield, only the soldiers of Jingying can protect the stability of the royal family if they obey the orders of the royal family.
But he can't do politics, and he doesn't want to do politics, so he can only talk through Cao Huachun, but Cao Huachun came back and said that Wang Chengen used all kinds of excuses to not come up with a single article, and Cao Huachun, who was well aware of righteousness at that time, had tried hard to persuade him, but he could only offend Wang Chengen but it had no effect.
Now it seems that Wang Chengen is loyal, but he is indeed too stupid.
Chongzhen didn't know his sister-in-law's thoughts, so he continued to spit bitter water, saying his worries: "Sister-in-law, you also know that Lu Hanqiang is the future son-in-law of the Guogong, sister-in-law, please think, there are 200,000 Guogong Jingying inside, and there are 40,000 tigers and wolves outside, and the soldiers are full of food.
After saying this with difficulty, Chongzhen and Empress Zhang fell into a deep silence together.
Empress Zhang sighed in her heart, her little uncle is self-taught, and he has no idea of governing the country, but he has learned the emperor's darkness to the fullest, but he has not learned the essence of the emperor's control of the ministers, so this suspicious character is formed.
It's a pity that Lu Hanqiang put out fires everywhere for you, but he always gets such suspicion from you, and he really feels sorry for Lu Hanqiang. seemed to feel his sister-in-law's disapproval, Chongzhen whispered his feelings: "There is a reason why I consider Lu Hanqiang like this, Lu Hanqiang, although he is submissive to me on weekdays, but I can always see from his eyes that he is indifferent to power and despises imperial power, and a person with great ability, but full of contempt for imperial power, is either a great detachment or a great ambition, which is the reason why I use Lu Hanqiang and do not reuse it." ” This is the key heel, this is the fundamental reason why Chongzhen has been using the embankment to protect Lu Hanqiang.
After thinking about it for a while, Empress Zhang said softly: "Now is an extraordinary period, and it is the top priority to drive out the Tartars, if you let Jiannu ravage Gyeonggi again, it will shake the country and shake the hearts of the people, so let the others go first, or call King Lu Han to strengthen Qin." ” "But it's really a hidden danger for the Duke of Guo to hold 200,000 Beijing camps."
Chongzhen voiced his concern again.
Empress Zhang shook her head helplessly, at this time, she could no longer scruple about interfering in politics, but to stand up and give this indecisive little uncle a suggestion, and then suggested in a low voice: "The old man is old, and it is time to take back the military power. ” Chongzhen nodded, Chen Xinjia is a cadre of Donglin, although Donglin is good at empty talk and is better at internal fighting, but no matter what, Donglin will not rebel, which Chongzhen absolutely believes.
"But changing the coach between the big battles, I'm afraid that some people outside will make irresponsible remarks, which will be even more intolerable."
Rigid and self-serving but looking forward and backward, wanting black people but wanting face, Empress Zhang was really disappointed in this little uncle's ability, and had to grit her teeth for a long time and said: "Then let the old man die in a glorious battle."
Then he stood up and went back to the palace without looking back.
