Chapter 147: I trust you in vain, take it down

Yuan Chonghuan knelt on the ground, holding the secret letter written by Huang Taiji in his hand. Listening to the words spoken by Emperor Chongzhen, his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Things seemed to be beyond his expectations.

"Yuan Qing~"

Emperor Chongzhen stood up slowly, and under the gaze of everyone, he said with emotion: "In front of these ministers, relatives, and generals, I asked myself, it can be said that I have given you enough trust.

I still remember vividly how Yuan Qing was so high-spirited when the platform was called upon, and I can still remember it vividly in my mind. Five years of peace and stability in the Liao Dynasty will definitely eliminate the troubles of the Ming Dynasty.

Yuan Qing, let me ask you, is this your five years of Ping Liao?"

"..."

Emperor Chongzhen's words echoed in the ears of everyone. Although they were not loud, they were like thunder. Many people lowered their heads subconsciously, with complex expressions on their faces. At this time, the gate of the Chinese Army was like death.

silence.

"Your Majesty, I have failed to live up to the emperor's favor and failed to..."

Yuan Chonghuan, whose body was trembling, became agitated and wanted to say something that Emperor Chongzhen knew he was going to say. It was nothing more than a temporary inadvertence and the treachery of the captives.

"Yuan Qing, don't be in a hurry to apologize to me." Emperor Chongzhen walked forward slowly, interrupted Yuan Chonghuan, and said with an indifferent expression: "I haven't finished what I want to say."

"Since you left Liaodong, how much grain has been allocated by the imperial court and how much Liao salary has been allocated. I think Yuan Qing knows these accounts better than anyone else.

This does not include the court's support for the Qian Liao Dynasty, including the Ji Miyong Sanxie's elimination of troops and reduction of pay.

Yuan Qing, I really want to ask you, considering the five years of peace talks between Liao and Liao, why did you do things before Liao that were not about peace and Liao, but were fishing for fame, using power for personal gain, uniting the party to defeat differences, and winning over people's hearts?

Are you headstrong and arrogant, despising the emperor's favor, and pretending to kill generals?"

These words spoken by Emperor Chongzhen were like a heavy hammer hitting Yuan Chonghuan so hard that his eyes widened and his face was filled with an expression of disbelief.

"This time the Jianlu invaded the Ming Dynasty and took a detour from Liaoqian to kill them. Do you know what was the first thing I thought of when I learned about this?"

He glanced at Yuan Chonghuan and Emperor Chongzhen, who was standing with his arms akimbo, and said coldly: "It's a blinding sight. I gave Yuan Qing that level of trust, but Yuan Qing felt that I was very easy to coax, and the ministers in the court were very easy to coax. She felt that the sky before Liao Dynasty was high."

The emperor is far away, and the court will believe whatever you say.

Therefore, for the sake of your reputation and your career, even if you proposed the theory of "five years to bring peace to the Liao Dynasty", after arriving before the Liao Dynasty, you found that it was impossible to realize it, so you would carefully weave lies again and again.

Prevaricate me, and prevaricate the imperial court until you can no longer bear it."

"Your Majesty!! I have never thought of this before."

Yuan Chonghuan, who looked panicked, raised his head and said in an excited tone: "I know that I have a heavy burden and shoulder the expectations of His Majesty. Since I came out of Liaodong, I have been working hard to rectify the situation in Liaodong. I used the pretense of 'negotiating peace' to actively

Create a situation that is beneficial to our Ming Dynasty, sir..."

"So you exclude generals who disagree with your political views?"

Seeing the politician Yuan Chonghuan, still explaining his difficulties as a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen laughed angrily and said coldly: "So you just pretended to kill Mao Wenlong?"

After hearing what Emperor Chongzhen said, Chen Jisheng, Mao Chenglu, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and other generals of the Dongjiang Army looked at Yuan Chonghuan with more or less hatred on their faces.

"Yuan Chonghuan, I have saved you enough face."

Emperor Chongzhen ignored these and said with emotion: "But even now, you still haven't woken up at all.

You think you are very smart, but you underestimated Jianlu and my dog ​​slave Huang Taiji.

Before you came to Hanerzhuang, were you still thinking that as long as you found two reasons at random, in front of so many people, I would not punish you?"

Yuan Chonghuan is a complex person, a politician, and a scholar from the Ming Dynasty. Usually, this type of person values ​​his own reputation more than his life, and he also values ​​his career more.

There is a characteristic in them. Even if things are not done well and are clearly beyond their capabilities, they still insist on bragging about things that are beneficial to them and themselves. Isn't that beneficial to Ming Dynasty?

?

They are often equal to Ming Dynasty.

"My lords, do you think I should punish Yuan Chonghuan?"

Emperor Chongzhen slowly turned around, stood with his arms akimbo, glanced at the group of people behind him, and said with an indifferent expression: "Or do you want to overturn what I said?"

"I don't dare to wait/I will wait for you!"

Feeling Emperor Chongzhen's glance, the group of people headed by Sun Chengzong either bowed their hands or knelt on one knee, speaking in no particular order.

Zhao Shujiao, Zu Dashou, He Kegang and others in the crowd were in extremely complicated moods at this moment. They did not expect that the emperor would say what he had said before.

To be honest, the imperial court has given too much support to Liao Qian in these years, but they know the situation best in Liao Qian.

'There are so many thieves and rats in the Ming Dynasty, and there are rebels everywhere.'

Glancing at Zu Dashou, who was kneeling down on one knee, Emperor Chongzhen felt emotion in his heart. A cold light flashed in his eyes, "It's okay, let's take our time. Liao Qian needs stability now, and my plans also need to be implemented."

'

In the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, the current Liao people were an intricate quasi-warlord organization, especially the local Liao people, who had long been fattened by the Ping Liao incident, and each of them had a strong family background.

Even their actions can affect the court's decision-making.

How did these Liao people get so fat?

Isn't that all the money and food allocated by the imperial court? They filled their own pockets. They used the money and food to feed the imperial soldiers and horses, but they were engaged in the business of training private army servants!

Emperor Chongzhen, who calmed down his mind, looked at the group of ministers, relatives, and generals in front of him, and said loudly: "Come here, take down this Yuan Chonghuan who deceives the emperor, is morally corrupt, is self-willed, works in secret, and has the same party and the opposite party.

Take it back to Shenjing and hand it over to the Jinyi Guards for investigation!"

"Here!"

"Your Majesty, you can't do this. I have never done those things. I was wronged..."

At this moment, chaotic footsteps sounded at the gate of the Central Army, and Yuan Chonghuan's roar echoed. He never expected that Emperor Chongzhen would give him such a definition.

If all these definitions were spread, all the reputation he had accumulated would be stink overnight.
