Don't panic when traveling through the late Ming Dynasty, just go to Liangjian and buy a machin

Chapter 149 Yuan Chonghuan's Decision

Wang Chengen went on a killing spree.

And all the people used were from the East Factory.

Such a big thing happened in the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

The Jinyiwei did not appear.

So what did the Jinyiwei do?

It turned out that it was when Emperor Chongzhen fell into the water.

The commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Zhang Guobing, is not in the capital.

At that time, Zhang Guobing was on a business trip abroad.

Plus, Zhang Guobing was Yuan Chonghuan's man.

So after Emperor Chongzhen fell into the water.

Wang Chengen neither trusted Zhang Guobing nor the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Then there is the dirty work of confronting the civil service group head-on.

It can only be done by people from the East Factory!

Wang Chengen not only arrested many officials.

The family members of those officials were also thrown into prison.

If there is no will.

Wang Chengen is going to confiscate the property and exterminate the entire clan!

After Wang Chengen’s thundering attack.

The capital of the Ming Dynasty was temporarily calm.

But soon after, many generals in the Beijing camp made some unusual movements.

There appear to be signs of the use of force.

The atmosphere in the Ming capital reached freezing point.

Large-scale bloody conflict may break out at any time.

But Wang Chengen and Wang Huazhen and others.

Still with a tough attitude, no intention of compromise...

……

Yuan Chonghuan who was far away in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

It was quickly passed through the Jinyiwei channels.

Learned what happened in the capital.

And he knew that Emperor Chongzhen had fallen into the water and had been in a coma ever since.

Yuan Chonghuan immediately began to think.

How should he deal with such a change?

When we were suppressing the peasant uprising in Shaanxi.

Yuan Chonghuan won battle after battle and made great military achievements.

Then Shang Kexi and his men recruited a large number of refugees.

In addition, the imperial court actively provided disaster relief and appeased the refugees.

So the peasant uprising army became smaller and smaller.

Except for some main characters who fled into the deep mountains and forests.

The rest of the rebel forces were basically wiped out.

Afterwards, Yuan Chonghuan received an order from Emperor Chongzhen.

Let him go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.

Strictly investigate the illegal activities of maritime merchants and salt merchants.

So Yuan Chonghuan led his troops on a journey.

They came from Shanxi and Shaanxi to Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.

How huge are the interests involved in maritime merchants and salt merchants?

Yuan Chonghuan had some understanding of this.

Yuan Chonghuan also knew that this matter would definitely encounter a lot of resistance.

But Yuan Chonghuan really didn't expect it.

He had just arrived in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.

I am busy collecting evidence and clues and haven't had time to take action yet.

Emperor Chongzhen has already fallen into the water!

Others even dared to harm the emperor.

How could they let Yuan Chonghuan go?

You should know that Yuan Chonghuan was originally a member of the Donglin Party, and later he defected to Wei Zhongxian.

Later, he became involved with the Donglin Party.

This allowed him to preserve his official position and life after Wei Zhongxian's downfall.

But after Emperor Chongzhen no longer believed the civil servants' lies.

Yuan Chonghuan betrayed the Donglin Party again.

He clung to the support of Emperor Chongzhen and became a royalist.

So I thought about it from Yuan Chonghuan's perspective.

Do you think it doesn’t matter whether Emperor Chongzhen can wake up or not?

As long as Wang Huazhen and Wang Chengen fall.

Then Yuan Chonghuan would definitely not have a good ending...

……

After thinking about these issues clearly.

Yuan Chonghuan immediately made a decision in his mind.

That is to return to Beijing immediately with the Guanning Cavalry.

And let his old subordinate Zhang Guobing.

The man who returned to Beijing to lead the Jinyiwei.

Cooperate fully with Wang Chengen and others.

Wait until Yuan Chonghuan returns to Beijing.

He will work with Wang Chengen and Wang Huazhen to find a way to stabilize the situation in the capital.

If Emperor Chongzhen could wake up.

Then Yuan Chonghuan must have made the right bet.

What if Emperor Chongzhen never wakes up again?

Then Yuan Chonghuan would have to join forces with Wang Chengen and others.

He tried every possible means to support the one-year-old Zhu Cilang to ascend the throne.

Only in this way can he maintain his power.

Otherwise, the outcome will most likely be death without a burial place.

Yuan Chonghuan for his own future.

This time we have to fight...

……

Here in the Ming Dynasty capital.

Someone from the intelligence department under Mao Wenlong.

Always paying attention to all the big and small things in the capital.

It was discovered that high-ranking officials within the Ming Dynasty suddenly began to fight among themselves.

The intelligence department took immediate action.

But the intelligence services have limited reach.

He had no access to high-ranking officials and various secrets of the Ming Dynasty court.

Even if they tried everything.

The truth of the matter has not been clarified.

Until March 3th.

The pressure Wang Chengen and his colleagues are facing is increasing.

The generals and soldiers of the Beijing camp were divided into two factions.

A major fight was about to break out and the capital was about to fall into civil strife.

Wang Chengen and others then stood up.

It was directly announced that Emperor Chongzhen had fallen into the water and had not woken up since then.

At the same time, Wang Chengen also mentioned Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Youxiao.

It was pointed out that this was the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty to fall into the water.

Someone wants to assassinate the emperor.

And everything Wang Chengen and others did.

It was just to ensure the safety of Emperor Chongzhen and his eldest son Zhu Cilang.

And speak out against the civil and military officials who have been targeting them.

Or they were taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives.

Or maybe they are in the same group as the enemy hiding in the dark...

Only then did the people in the intelligence department know what had happened?

Quickly pass the news back to Liaodong...

And after Wang Chengen and others revealed the truth.

It immediately triggered a public opinion storm.

Civil and military officials behaved themselves on the surface, but undercurrents continued to surge in secret.

Then another day passed.

On the tenth day of March in 1630.

Urgent military information came from Shanhaiguan.

It is said that the army under Mao Wenlong's command has already arrived at the city.

Then the wind direction in the Ming Dynasty capital immediately changed.

The spearhead was directed at Mao Wenlong.

It was actually said that it was Mao Wenlong who murdered Emperor Chongzhen.

The purpose is to plunge the Ming Dynasty court into civil strife.

Then Mao Wenlong and his men could take advantage of the opportunity to seize the Ming Dynasty!

For a moment, the voices of war resounded through the sky.

They all requested to send troops to attack Mao Wenlong...
