As soon as this person was said, he was strongly opposed by Zhou Shipu, the Minister of War, and others. He listed nearly ten crimes in all matters. First, for many years, the military, horse, money and food have not been subject to the jurisdiction of the governor; second, there was no military merit, but the first merit was reported; third, stubborn and treacherous, no courtesy; fourth, invading the border and sea money and food; fifth, opening the horse market, and privately engaging in foreign barbarians; six, despising the court's famous weapons and building his own minions; seven, robbing the stolen goods and becoming a thief; eight, smearing lustfulness; nine, imprisoning refugees and slandering people's lives; ten, making friends with close servants, suspected to be Wei Zhongxian's party. Mao Wenlong held heavy troops and lived in the islands. The court had no choice but to entrusting the danger of Xie Ningyuan on him. Didn't he let him go to control the court's demand for food and money? This person is insatiable and cannot be used.

Mao Wenlong's troops were stationed on Pi Island near the sea of ​​the Yalu River Estuary. Pi Island is also called Dongjiang, fifteen miles from east to west and ten miles from north to south. It forms a three-legged tripod with Zhanzidao and Lu Island at the Yalu River Estuary. It occupies the two prefectures of Liaodong, North Korea, and Shandong. It can threaten Huang Taiji's old nest at any time. After Huang Taiji inherited the Khan throne, he also tried every means to win over Mao Wenlong. However, although Mao Wenlong was arrogant, indulged, lustful and greedy for money, he was still able to keep his pride and did not surrender to the Later Jin Dynasty. Huang Taiji just seized the huge changes in the Ming court, occupied Ningyuan City at this opportunity, and then slowly came back to pull out Mao Wenlong's nail and cleared the obstacles to going south.

Zhu Yinglong, the man Mao Wenlong, still knew about it, not because he was too famous, but because he was beheaded by Yuan Chonghuan. In history, it was because Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian was a little dissatisfied with Yuan Chonghuan. At the same time, because of the loss of Mao Wenlong's restraint from Pidao, Huang Taiji used Mongolia to attack Zunhua from Xifengkou and surrounded the capital. Although Yuan Chonghuan finally solved the danger of the capital, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian had already hated Yuan Chonghuan at that time. It was not because he killed Mao Wenlong in the shirt. Will he suffer this? With Huang Taiji's plan to disagree, Yuan Chonghuan's fate can be imagined.

It was not just that Mao Wenlong was used. The young and strong sect led by Huang Daozhou had a huge disagreement with the elderly sect led by Sun Shen. The two sects immediately started to quarrel. After all, the young people had a strong foundation and sufficient endurance, and their voices were loud enough, gradually gaining the upper hand, making Sun Shenxing's old face flushed and red. Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi were busy mediating, and they were very busy.

Faced with such a situation, other emperors may punish them for their crime of being disrespectful and disrespectful, but Zhu Yinglong has seen how later politicians slander each other, scolded each other in the street, and were full of ugly things. What could this small quarrel be like in front of him?

"I have my own opinion on whether Mao Wenlong is needed or not. I will consider this matter for one night. I will give an explanation for the list of the ministers tomorrow morning." Seeing that they were arguing, Zhu Yinglong couldn't help but slap the table heavily and said with a cold expression.

The emperor was angry and buried his corpse for thousands of miles. Huang Daozhou and others immediately shut up. Sun Shenxing was not afraid of Zhu Yinglong. Zhu Yinglong scolded him like that when he was still believing in the king. Although he was a little restrained now, his stubborn temper still did not change at all. He immediately knelt down to Zhu Yinglong and begged him to accept advice. Mao Wenlong should not be used.

I knew that Sun Shenxing was a trouble. Although what he insisted was reasonable, but he had power. Don’t you know how to adapt to it. First solve the current crisis, and then try to find other things. If there is no official in the country, the country will surely be destroyed. Everyone understands this principle. But now is not the time for him to be a loyal minister. It seems that it is necessary to separate the military and political affairs. Civil officials do not control the military and military affairs. The chaos in the government and military is indeed not conducive to the implementation of government orders and military orders.

For someone like Sun Shenxing, Zhu Yinglong can only help him up with a happy look and said, "Mr. Sun, I understand your hard work, and I will consider it carefully."

Now Zhu Yinglong understands a little why so many emperors like jesters and treacherous ministers, but not straight ministers. Because of this straight minister, Zhengchen only follows the idea of ​​self-sufficiency and put the national justice in front. The emperor cannot come to Taiwan, so who will the emperor kill if he doesn't kill them?

"Report to the emperor, I am ordered to search the houses of rebellious subordinate officials of the eunuch party. The palace did not count. The head of the eunuch party, Wei Zhongxian, found 23.24 million taels of silver, about 350,000 taels of gold, and countless other jewelry and jade. I have not had time to count it yet. As for the other eunuch party subordinates, it is almost the same as those copied from Wei Zhongxian's mansion. I ask for instructions, should I wait until I have finished counting this money, or should I hand it over to the Ministry of Revenue now?" Shi Kefa hurriedly stood up and led the topic.

After listening to Shi Kefa's report, everyone took a deep breath. Everyone knew that all the officials of the eunuch party were fat and the siege of their homes was so surging them that they could still earn more than two years of income.

Zhu Yinglong knew that it was purely God's will to copy such a large amount of money. Wei Zhongxian was a big help. If he hadn't acted so quickly to force the palace to establish a crown prince, he was quickly driven out of the capital by him, and the officials he had been holding him would have been unable to copy such money, and it would have been good if he could have half of it.

Sun Shenxing burst into tears and cried, "Your Majesty, now it's better. The treasury is less than one million taels of silver. With this money, the life of the Wei minister is much better!"

Sun Chengzong also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He could have nothing, but he must not have money. With money, things are much easier to do. Now there are more places to spend money. Every day, he spends a lot of money out of the treasury. I haven’t seen how much it has moved into the treasury. Abundant finances are the real foundation of a regime.

Zhu Yinglong was also full of emotion. He ordered Wang Chengen to clean up the internal currency and found that the inventory of internal currency was only more than 10 million taels. This was saved by the previous two emperors. It was squandered by Wei Zhongxian and moved to his own house. Only such a little money was left. Although self-sufficiency was worth millions of taels, the total amount of silver was not enough to spend now. To protect the existing regime, we must first have a powerful army. Where did the powerful army come from? It was piled up with silver. The existing Ming army officers and soldiers have a history of decades from armor to weapons. Some of them waved their rusted hands. Before the enemy was injured, they injured themselves first. The helmets of the dignified generals can be shot through by an arrow by an ordinary archer of the Later Jin Dynasty. It is conceivable how bad the Ming army's military preparations (except Liaodong) are. How much does it cost to recreate and build an army? Zhu Yinglong dared not calculate the amount.

"Calculate the gold and silver, hand it over to the Ministry of Revenue. You should find someone to count the rest slowly first, don't be busy selling it." Zhu Yinglong suddenly had an idea in his mind. These things may not be sold at a high price in China now, but if these things are shipped to North Korea, Japan, and sold to the Later Jin Dynasty, it is also OK. Maybe they can be sold at a sky-high price. Anyway, it will be your own country in the future, and it is not considered selling cultural relics. If you collect them back then, he will not be able to collect the taxes from Jiangnan for the time being, and he must find a way to increase his income. Leave this matter to Tian Wan to do. Anyway, there is no fleet under his name.

"The court has had such a big change. Although the court has controlled the capital, Wei Zhongxian will not escape by coercing the concubine Shu and his son. I guess another court will be established in Nanjing to compete with the emperor. We must know the intention of governors and governors of various provinces before Wei Zhongxian. Basically, there is nothing to say about Jiangbei. But it is hard to say about Jiangnan. Jiangsu and Zhejiang are all important places for grain production and taxation. If Wei Zhongxian controls these four provinces, it will be troublesome to wipe out the rebel party." Huang Zunsu's family is in Zhejiang. When the people of Zhejiang were in Zhejiang, they would have to live under the power of Wei Zhongxian, and they were anxious and wished that Zhu Yinglong would send troops to attack immediately.

"Where have Chang Yanlin and Xiong Zhaolian and the others chased me?" Zhu Yinglong asked.

"According to the news from the arrival report, we should have arrived in Yangzhou." Sun Chengzong replied.

"The order was sent to stop them, and they were appointed to defend in Yangzhou, and promoted Chang Yanlin to the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Xiong Zhaolian was the general of Jiangsu. All the troops and horses belonged to Xiong Zhaolian were controlled by Xiong Zhaolian. Never allow the rebels to cross the river." Zhu Yinglong's words coincided with Sun Chengzong. As long as he gained a foothold in Jiangbei, Wei Zhongxian wanted to plot against Jiangbei, and first had to break Yangzhou first. Yangzhou already had Zhu Yinglong's secret base. Although it had not been opened, Tian Wan had been operating for two years. It should not be difficult for Xiong Zhaolian to gain a foothold there.

"The emperor has three more people, we must win. With these three people, Wei Zhongxian will be able to get the taxes and taxes of the four provinces in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and it will be a matter of time before he can be wiped out." Sun Chengzong's originally serious face suddenly showed a smile, as if he was very confident.

"Which three people?" Zhu Yinglong asked in a shock.

"The governor of Wu Zhiwang, the governor of Sichuan, Huguang, Shaanxi Military Affairs, Zhu Xieyuan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, and the other is the general of the southern expedition, the Duke of Qian, who was in charge of Yunnan. As long as these three people can declare their loyalty to the emperor, Wei Zhongxian would like to rule the river and even want to go north again, it would be a fantasy." Sun Chengzong said confidently.

"Yes, fortunately, I have deceived Old Dean Sun to my side for a long time. The old Dean said this and suddenly made me realize it, haha." Zhu Yinglong laughed happily.

"But it is not a simple matter to make these three people loyal to the emperor. Wu Zhi, the governor of the three sides, is very easy to do. He has been short of salary for more than a year. As long as the emperor gives him military salary, he will be able to stabilize his morale. It is not a difficult matter to be loyal to the emperor. As for Zhu Xieyuan, it is a bit difficult, but I believe that the difficulty is not too difficult to have this person go. As for the last general of the Southern Conquest, Mu Qiyuan, may have to take some trouble, but there is no way, and the least it can be left out." Sun Chengzong said one by one.

Wu Zhiwang has no big problem, but Sun Chengzong didn't say who Zhu Xieyuan wanted to go, and Zhu Yinglong looked at Sun Chengzong with a questioning look.

Sun Chengzong gave Zhu Yinglong a look and signaled that there were many people here, so he was inconvenient to say that Zhu Yinglong immediately understood what he meant. He would just talk about it today and leave Sun Chengzong alone.

"Who is it? Please tell me, Mr. Sun." After everyone dispersed, Zhu Yinglong asked impatiently.

"The former Minister of War Wang was in Jin." Sun Chengzong said.

Zhu Yinglong looked at Sun Chengzong in surprise and did not express any opinion.

"As the saying goes, "Why do not avoid relatives in the internal order, and do not avoid enemies outside, Wang Zaijin and Zhu Xieyuan were both Jinshi and classmates. They also served as left and right censors in Shanxi together. The two had a close relationship. Although they had a bit of disagreement with General Yuan, this was a long time ago, and it was not a dead enemy that could not be resolved." Sun Chengzong said seriously.

"Okay, I don't know where Wang Zaijin is now, so I would rather go there for me without my intention?" Zhu Yinglong hesitated.

"The emperor can rest assured that as long as the emperor gives a conscript order, he will be appointed as the Guanglu official in Jin, the crown prince, the imperial guardian, and the left censor as the governor of Huguang, and the rest will be handed over to the Wei ministers to handle." Sun Chengzong smiled.

Zhu Yinglong remained silent. It was not impossible to use the old minister. He was afraid that he would cause trouble for himself in the future, so he did not dare to respond in one go.

"Is the emperor reluctant to part with this governor of Huguang, or is he afraid of trouble later?" How could Sun Chengzong not understand the emperor's current mood?

"Forget it, let's take care of the front of you." Zhu Yinglong breathed a long sigh and responded to Sun Chengzong's request.

"Where is there another Mu Qiyuan?" Zhu Yinglong asked.

"I allowed Yunnan to be autonomous, and all officials appointed by Yunnan Province were appointed by him. Within ten years, the court would not allow him to pay a penny of taxes and would grant him the title of King of Qianning." Sun Chengzong said.

When Zhu Yinglong heard this, he breathed in surprise. Such conditions were no different from separatist rule. Chengzu set a rule that if a different surname cannot be named a king, doing so may cause criticism from the world. He dare not agree easily. It is easy to say that the previous ones are easy to make. Even if he wants to do so, he cannot get taxes in Yunnan. This is purely a superficial article. It turns illegal into legal ones, and even the symbolic taxes can be stopped. He has to consider the title of a king of a different surname. He cannot agree to Sun Chengzong for a while, but he has doubts why Sun Chengzong, who has always been a mature country, has such an idea. It is worth pondering it.

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible to stick to the rules in this situation." Sun Chengzong reminded.
