Chapter 277: I come to you to settle accounts

Yuan Chonghuan was confident when he said this.

The relationship between Liaodong can be described as complicated.

The court was already deeply afraid of Liaodong.

Just talk about Yuan Chonghuan's promotion of so many military generals over the years.

These military generals are all powerful people in Liaodong, and they have long since stopped relying on the black hats given by the court to exercise their power.

Because theoretically, the military and horses of the court were all a group of elderly, weak, sick and disabled who were owed wages, and had no loyalty to the court.

And the real elite soldiers have long become servants of these generals, but they are actually slaves who depend on them.

This Liaodong is not just the Jiannu people who are playing slaves.

These generals of the Ming Dynasty had countless servants. These servants were quite powerful in combat and were the backbone of the army.

If Your Majesty directly suspects that Yuan Chonghuan or Man Gui is unfaithful, this means that the generals they promoted are not loyal?

In this way, who can feel at ease?

If there is a mutiny or even directly surrender to Jiannu, how will the court end?

What is a arrogant soldier? This is a arrogant soldier and powerful general.

I want to resign, but I am not in a hurry.

But your Majesty, you are anxious.

Man Gui and others obviously saw Yuan Chonghuan's thoughts, so they were busy resigning.

Looking at the civil servants and military generals on the ground, why could Emperor Tianqi be so angry? He was furious and said sternly: "Okay, you actually threatened me with resignation."

Yuan Chonghuan seemed very calm. He thought to himself, Your Majesty is indeed restless and impatient. Isn’t such a young emperor easy to win?

So he said in a hurry and fearful manner: "Your Majesty, I... I have to do it. How dare I not serve Your Majesty? But this Liaodong is a critical place and cannot be misunderstood. If Your Majesty is suspicious of me and others, I am afraid that Your Majesty will go to the capital in the future. Your Majesty has a person who is trustworthy. Since you are useless, you are naturally willing to abdicate and give in to your wise men. Please choose another good talent. You have no intention of coercion, so please let Your Majesty know."

Man Gui and others may not be able to get along with Yuan Chonghuan in harmony on weekdays, and it is common to fight for power and profit!

But in this regard, they are far inferior to Yuan Chonghuan. Now they are naturally obedient to follow Yuan Chonghuan's leader. After hearing Yuan Chonghuan's words, they said: "What Yuan Gong said is very true, and I... are willing to let the virtuous."

Emperor Tianqi's face became colder and colder, and at this moment, he seemed to have chills in his bones.

Then, Emperor Tianqi burst into laughter: "Okay, very good. Since you are willing to let the wise, what else do I have to say? Are you the same?"

Man Gui and others hurriedly said, "Yes."

Emperor Tianqi stood up and said, "Yes, I will take care of all these!"

He said this lightly.

But suddenly, Yuan Chonghuan, Man Gui and others who thought they had grasped Emperor Tianqi were confused.

No way... His Majesty really doesn't know what he is doing?

Yuan Chonghuan said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I am old and can take off my burdens, go home and enjoy my old age..."

Emperor Aoki suddenly said coldly: "But... before resigning, there are some things that you didn't seem to explain clearly!"

As soon as this statement comes out.

Yuan Chonghuan and others felt a slump.

They did not coerce Emperor Aoki, but his Majesty... seemed to want to... be more and more greedy.

Yuan Chonghuan kowtowed and said, "I don't know what else has not been explained clearly?"

Emperor Tianqi looked at him coldly and said, "Last year, the Liao salary I escorted to Liaodong was 4.5 million taels. In addition... the money and grain obtained from the military farming in Liaodong are also allowed to be used as military expenses on the spot. Not to mention the money and silver, nor do you pay your own levies in Liaodong. I also sent 1.2 million stones of grain, and countless swords, guns, swords and halberds, military horses, cattle and mules, etc. These money, grain and materials are countless. This year..."

Emperor Tianqi paused and continued, "I don't tell you the situation this year. You know, if you don't tell me, you know the situation in Guanzhong, and there are many bandits. However, Liaodong is in a hurry. I have tried every means to raise countless money and grain to send it out. How much do you want... I dare not give it, but... I ask you, I have given so much money and grain, you said you have built a city, you trained troops, and you paid wages. What has this city been like? I have seen it with my own eyes... Just these lumps of land, how much have you spent? There are still money and silver, how much money and grain that the soldiers have obtained? Why are there still soldiers who owe money and grain for eight months now? Have I owed you eight months of money and grain? Where have you all gone? You are all civil and military, one is a governor and the other is a general officer. I think you must be very clear."

Yuan Chonghuan was sweating profusely when he heard this. He suddenly realized... Emperor Tianqi said that he did not trust Ning Yuan's civil servants and military generals seemed to be from the heart, not just a simple rebuke.

Emperor Tianqi then raised his voice and said loudly: "Even if I take a step back ten thousand steps, I won't say these, I will just talk about the Yizhou Guard, Yizhou Guard... How many soldiers and how many people have eaten empty salary? Why don't I see any of the war horses that should have in the book? Where did these soldiers, horses, and money and food go?"

Such a question made him answer how Yuan Chonghuan answer at this time, and finally said: "I... I will investigate thoroughly."

Emperor Tianqi laughed and said, "A thorough investigation? Haha, are you not sure about this for so many years in Liaodong? Why do you need to investigate thoroughly? You submitted a memorial and dared to make a promise, saying that you would pacify Liao in five years, and later said that you would pacify Liao in three years, and you would also say that the situation in Liaodong is in three years, and you are confident and well aware of it. But now, what I have known in just a few days after coming to Liaodong, you are a dignified governor and a magistrate, but you still need to investigate thoroughly."

Said...

Emperor Tianqi was already furious and grabbed the teacup on the desk and threw it to the ground.

Bang...

The teacup fell to the ground and fell to pieces.

Yuan Chonghuan, Man Gui and others felt a slump in their hearts, and their hearts also jumped up with the teacup breaking.

Yuan Chonghuan had no choice but to kowtow and said, "Your Majesty...My..."

Emperor Tianqi roared angrily: "You are treating me as a deaf and blind. Do you think I am so ignorant and can be fooled by you? Do you think... I am afraid of being afraid to do anything to you?"

These consecutive questions have made Yuan Chonghuan feel a little panicked.

He didn't expect that this would happen when he met the Saint.

Man Gui and others were also a little panicked and at a loss.

Emperor Tianqi continued to sneer: "Now you are going to resign. This is very good. It can be regarded as fulfilling my wish. I can't keep you, but... the accounts must be settled clearly. If you don't calculate this clearly, you just want to go home peacefully and be rich, and you still want to live your life and enjoy your grandchildren, right?"

"My dear..." Yuan Chonghuan tried hard to calm himself down.

Emperor Aoki said hysterically: "Don't think about it! If you don't explain it clearly, no one can escape!"

Man Gui became more and more panicked, and carefully glanced at Yuan Chonghuan from the corner of his eyes.

Yuan Chonghuan's eyes were already red at this time. To this point, isn't this a rebellion between the king and the minister?

At this time, if you don’t quickly analyze the interests, I’m afraid that Emperor Tianqi, the young emperor, might be able to do anything.

So Yuan Chonghuan began to cry and choked, "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, who taught Your Majesty these words? Your Majesty is a saint, and has always been generous. Why do you treat me like this today? Your Majesty... These treacherous and slanderous words are actually to distract you, my monarch and ministers. I serve Your Majesty and guard Liaodong. Although I have no achievements, I am still worthy of my heart. On the contrary, there are treacherous and slanderous people who accompany you and slander day and night, so... How can the soldiers, people and the people of the world not worry?"

"Your Majesty is not enough to scold me for being useless. Even if you imprison or behead me, I will have nothing to say. But... Your Majesty... I am afraid that Your Majesty will say so many heart-wrenching words, and everyone in Liaodong's military and civilians will be disappointed. At that time... Who garrisons Liaodong for Your Majesty, and who wards against Jiannu for Your Majesty? Your Majesty only listens to the treacherous words and ignores the millions of Liaodong's military and civilians. This is not a blessing for the country. What I say is from the heart, and I beg you... Your Majesty's holy judgment!"

After saying that, I snatched the ground with my head...

Man Gui and others couldn't help but admire Yuan Chonghuan's brilliant mind at this time, and then kowtowed like pounding garlic and said, "Please think twice."

Emperor Tianqi couldn't help laughing, this was a cold smile: "The treacherous minister you are talking about is Zhang Jingyi, right?"

Yuan Chonghuan just knocked his head against the ground, not commenting on it.

It's the default.

In front of you, you must not say that the emperor is wrong.

Since someone has done something wrong, then...

Zhang Jing stood aside, but in fact he hadn't heard Yuan Chonghuan's words openly or secretly. He just watched coldly, feeling ridiculous in his heart.

At this time, Emperor Tianqi said, "It seems that you are kind-hearted, and are afraid that no one will guard me in Liaodong? If I dare not obey you, may you still be in trouble, right? Very well, I tell you now that I can't count on you in Liaodong anymore. Do you want to know why?"

Speaking of this, Emperor Tianqi looked up and said to him: "Come... bring me someone up."

Between talking.

He saw several students escorting a man with a tied man in. The man seemed to feel ashamed and refused to take a step. He was pushed and shoved, so he stumbled in.

Emperor Tianqi pointed at the man and sneered: "Yuan Chonghuan, Mangui, come and take a look, let's take a look, who this man is!"

Yuan Chonghuan thought it was ridiculous, thinking that this young emperor was really ignorant of the importance of it, and he didn't even look at where he was now, so he dared to directly accuse the arrogant soldiers and generals of Liaodong in this way, and he was really not afraid of causing trouble.
