"I just ask one question, is the emperor's face important? Or is the century-old foundation of the Ming Dynasty important?"

This sentence is very risky. Chongzhen was an emperor who wanted to save face. Otherwise, he would not have given up moving south because of a few rebuttals from his ministers. The atmosphere in the Ganqing Palace suddenly solidified.

Liu Hongjian didn't say anything, quietly waiting for Chongzhen's reply. He wanted to consider whether this extraordinary battle was worth participating in.

For him, he had many choices. With the things in the ring, he could stay out of the matter, find a place to cat, collect a few loyal servants, and make some money with the knowledge of later generations.

However, if this is the case, the Ming Dynasty will perish, the Han people will be slaves, the iron hooves of Manchus will strait the Central Plains, and all the benevolent and ambitious people who dare to resist will be slaughtered, Yangzhou will suffer ten days of pain, and Jiading will also experience the tragedy of the three slaughter.

What qualifications are the Jurchen savages with a population of only a few hundred thousand to rule the millions of rivers and mountains and the 200 million hard-working people?

The most important point is that the Yin-Yang head is so ugly, and Liu Hongjian doesn’t want to change his hairstyle!

"I want the country! My century-old foundation is more important than anything. As long as I can pass on the Ming Dynasty, I am willing to give everything!" It seemed that after thinking for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen stared at Liu Hongjian and said it firmly.

"That's easy to deal with. Don't the emperor have Jinyiwei or Dongchang? Just those old men in the court, they are sure to check each other. Do you believe that everyone in the family is rich and rich?" Liu Hongjian said lightly, ignoring Chongzhen's face.

If you just attack scholars, you will be aware of the fact that scholars in the world will write articles for thousands of years.

If Chongzhen took the blame, he would be able to wash away even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"Before I entered politics, the eunuch party was in chaos, and the Dongjiyi Factory had been abolished by me. As for the Jinyiwei, the ministers said that there were three judicial departments of the Ministry of Justice, and I had been idle for many years. Do you think the factory guards are that important?"

Later generations of middle school students knew the importance of supervision, but as the supreme ruler of an empire, he didn't know what he had lost. This was really powerless and he got half the result with twice the effort.

"Of course it is important. The factory guard is the emperor's eyes, and the army is the emperor's sword. Wherever the eyes reach, they should be invincible!"

Liu Hongjian was not in a hurry, just like a patient old man guiding a primary school student who wanted to get good grades but often had insufficient brains.

"The most powerful tool to drive eyes and swords is silver! Does the emperor feel that there is a suspicion of corruption in some place, and asks those ministers to investigate, and there is no such thing?"

Liu Hongjian poured a cup of tea for the emperor and a cup for himself, and continued to slowly give Emperor Chongzhen eye drops.

Chongzhen closed his eyes, rubbed his temples with both hands, and fell into deep thought...

After drinking, Liu Hongjian fell asleep in a daze.

I don’t know how long it took, but Liu Hongjian vaguely felt a little thing pulling his clothes beside him. Liu Hongjian, who had stolen his cell phone in his previous life, was awakened in an instant.

What caught my eye was a little girl as delicate as a porcelain doll. Her two strands of black hair were hanging on her chest. Under her uniform bangs, her crescent-like eyes flashed, and she seemed to be able to speak. Although she was wearing plain clothes, she looked even more refined.

"Little guy, where are you from? What's your name?" This is the emperor's bedroom, so how could ordinary children come in here and play casually?

"I am Zhaoren, is my eldest brother a guest of my father? Can you not tell me!" Princess Zhaoren was caught on the spot and was a little scared, but the little princess, who had been hungry for a day, still looked at the food on the table, and finally her eyes were frozen on the golden roast chicken.

"Your Highness is greedy! Is it my brother to take you what you want to eat?" Liu Hongjian didn't care about taking advantage of the little princess, although he was older than Princess Zhaoren, who was only six years old.

However, the Ming Dynasty has a strong sense of superiority and inferiority. If the censors who heard the news knew about it, they would definitely not be able to take advantage of it. Fortunately, the eunuchs and palace maids in the hall had been driven out by Chongzhen.

"I want to eat chicken legs!" Princess Zhaoren was a little at a loss at first, and found that Liu Hongjian was not like those old-fashioned grandpas, and was so easy to talk to. She happily pointed to the roast chicken on the table.

Since a whole chicken was placed on the table, Liu Hongjian didn't have the nerve to tear the chicken legs in front of Chongzhen before, and Chongzhen turned a blind eye to the fat and tender chicken legs, so the whole chicken basically did not move.

Liu Hongjian tore off a chicken leg, wrapped it with a brocade handkerchief on the table, and handed it to Princess Zhaoren.

"Well, it smells so good!" The little Princess Zhaoren held the chicken legs in front of her eyes, and her breath moved slightly and smelled the fragrance of the chicken legs deeply.

"Eat quickly! Otherwise, your father will probably punish you when he comes." No matter how frugal the palace is, he will not even give it to the little baby. It is the time when he grows up, why is the emperor so cruel?

Looking at such a pure and cute little girl, Liu Hongjian felt pity and couldn't help but start slandering Emperor Chongzhen again.

"Big brother, can I ask for another chicken leg? I want to bring one for the emperor brother. He was punished by his husband in class today. The husband did not allow him to eat!" Princess Zhaoren waited for big eyes and looked at Liu Hongjian pitifully.

A few years ago, the palace was short of money and was ordered by Chongzhen. All the staff only ate simple food. As the last princess of the Ming Empire, not only did not have a future, but also had no power to grasp their own destiny, and even had the most basic luxury and food. I really felt pity.

"Okay, I'll give it to you. Let's have a good meal when you go back! I'll keep it a secret for you!" Liu Hongjian said, tearing off another chicken leg, plus two chicken wings.

"Rareless!" Liu Hongjian had just wrapped his bag and handed it to Princess Zhaoren, and Emperor Chongzhen came over angrily.

Princess Zhaoren shivered in fear. The chicken legs wrapped in snow-white handkerchief fell to the ground. She hid behind Liu Hongjian's little hands and grabbed Liu Hongjian's clothes with her little hands, her face full of fear.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was full of vigor, walked around behind Liu Hongjian. Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen was about to take action, Liu Hongjian hurriedly turned around to protect Princess Zhaoren.

"Your Majesty, don't get angry. It was Weichen who took the initiative to see the little princess being hungry. She was just a child. If there was any fault, the emperor would punish Weichen."

Liu Hongjian couldn't bear to see such a lovely little princess being "brutally killed" and took the initiative to take responsibility. After saying that, she said intimately, "Beauty is in trouble."

"Hmph! I've always known to play around all day, and go back to find your mother to take the punishment!" Chongzhen slapped the table with anger, and the tea in the tea cup trembled.

Seeing this, Liu Hongjian quickly picked up the chicken legs. Because the handkerchief was wrapped tightly, the chicken legs were not stained with dust. Liu Hongjian squatted down and handed them to Princess Zhaoren. Unexpectedly, Princess Zhaoren was afraid of Chongzhen's majesty. Although tears flashed in her eyes, she did not dare to reach out to pick them up.

"Your Highness, take it quickly. Don't forget to give it to your brother when you go back!" Liu Hongjian blinked at the little Princess Zhaoren, indicating that I have everything here.
