Chapter 110 Honesty

Even if someone has super manual technology and can imitate a wolf tooth rifle, as long as the firecap production technology is not leaked, it is useless to imitate a wolf tooth rifle.

The large-area equipment use of the Langya Type 2 rifle also makes Yu Jiajun have a stronger all-weather combat capability, which is less and less affected by the weather. Whether it is windy or rainy days, the Langya Type 2 rifle can be more effective, which is also one of the key factors for Yu Jiajun's repeated victories.

In front of the Yu family army equipped with so many new weapons, the old armies of the Ming Dynasty or the rabble army of some people can't fight against it at all.

Yu's army can often win the battle with less than many times the enemy's troops, which is also Yu Xiaotian's ability to repeatedly calm down countless domestic rebellions with a small number of troops in just two or three years.

By the beginning of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, the whole Ming Dynasty had almost completely settled down, and it was difficult to hear new disturbances in some places.

Although many places in the north are still affected by the climate and various natural disasters, under the more efficient relief of local governments, there are basically no tragedies such as cannibalism, and the victims can basically get the minimum protection and have not caused too many disasters.

After the Yuan Festival in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Yu Xiaotian finally made some time. It happened that news came from the palace that Chongzhen wanted to see him, saying that he didn't know what was going on and wanted to discuss it with him.

So after Yu Xiaotian thought about it, he once again entered the palace and met Emperor Chongzhen, who had been under house arrest in the palace for three years in the Wenhua Hall.

Chongzhen, who has ignored political affairs for three years, has basically put down by this time. After seeing Yu Xiaotian, he looked very calm, and even chatted with Yu Xiaotian.

And because Chongzhen no longer has to work hard, he spends his life in the palace quite leisurely, and he has become a little fat, and his spirit looks quite good.

Yu Xiaotian invented a poker game last year and was brought into the palace. Occasionally, Chongzhen came into contact with this new game and was very interested, so he often played cards with the concubines and eunuchs in the palace, and his life was also quite leisurely and interesting.

When Yu Xiaotian entered the palace and Chongzhen chatted with him, he suddenly asked Xiaotian, "Yu Xiaotian, I really admire you now!

Although you entered Beijing to seize power, I hated you to the bone, but after thinking about it for so long, I have to admit that I am not as good as you!

In the more than ten years after I ascended the throne and came to power, I really have to admit that although I have exhausted day and night, I have not been able to turn the tide, but it has made the national affairs increasingly chaotic. I can't resist the slaves outside world, and I can't calm the people in various places inside.

But you have done what I can't do in just three years, so even if I am reluctant, I have to admit that you are indeed much stronger than me!"

This time when Yu Xiaotian entered the palace, Chongzhen no longer held a shelf and sat after the dragon case to talk to him. Instead, he put two chairs, a small table, and some refreshments on the table. The two looked at each other and sat together, and could not see any kings or ministers.

So Yu Xiaotian also enjoys such treatment. After listening to Chongzhen's words, he nodded and smiled, "Don't underestimate yourself. Weichen can do this now, and it's not that Weichen is really better than the emperor!

It's just that Weichen was born at the bottom of the world and knows more about the hunger and suffering of the people and the disadvantages of officialdom than the emperor. In addition, Weichen narrowly got some things that others don't know, so that Weichen has the opportunity to train a strong soldier, so that he can do these things!

Weichen has always admired the emperor's diligence in politics after he ascended the throne. Although Weichen now holds power, Weichen is relatively lazy and far from being as diligent as the emperor.

Sometimes, in fact, those in power do not necessarily have to do everything. As long as they grasp the key point, let the capable people put it in the right place, and occasionally spur them to let professionals do professional things, sometimes it is hundreds of times better than doing everything!

The most important thing is supervision. Put power in a cage. Once supervision is lost, these officials will never be as diligent as they are now!

In fact, Weichen is not too busy now. In fact, Weichen does not ask about many things in person. The officials below can do it very well. Weichen only needs to tell them what to do and what to do, so the rest is to let them do it by themselves and establish a perfect supervision mechanism, compared with Weichen personally urged it to save much more effort!"

Chongzhen took a sip of tea, tasted Yu Xiaotian's words, nodded and sighed, "That makes sense! My biggest mistake at the beginning was that I could not make good use of people! In addition, I was also blinded by those ministers, so that they covered the sky with their hands and did their own, but I was always in the dark!

And I was born in the royal family. Although I have heard a lot of folk famine, I am far from knowing more about folk affairs, and I can't understand those greedy means in officialdom. Therefore, although I am very diligent, I never know what to do!

But you started from the people and know a lot about these things. When you come to power, you can take the right medicine and hit the point with one blow! Only then can you do things and get twice the result with half the effort! I'm not as good as you!"

Yu Xiaotian is curious about why Chongzhen has become so modest today. According to his understanding of Chongzhen, Chongzhen's personality has always been relatively stubborn and rarely admits his mistakes, but today, he even affirms and praises him, which makes him a little unaccustomed to it.

So Yu Xiaotian asked Chongzhen, "The Holy Praise!" I don't know what to do with the emperor's invitation to the palace this time?"

This sentence officially brought the topic to the point.

Chongzhen looked at Yu Xiaotian for a moment of silence and said, "Now that you have put the big tomorrow under your wings, I can also guess what you want, but I want to ask you, how do you plan to deal with me in the future?"

Yu Xiaotian also was slightly silent, took a sip of tea and looked at Chongzhen, while Chongzhen's face became nervous, staring at Yu Xiaotian's eyes, trying to see something from Yu Xiaotian's eyes.

After thinking about it, Yu Xiaotian replied with a smile and replied, "There is no need to worry about this. To tell the truth, Yu has the intention of seizing the world, but he has not thought of harming the emperor. Although the existence of the emperor is indeed a threat to me, Yu believes that as long as I Who is willing to go back to the past if it can govern the world well and let the people live and work in peace and contentment?

Even if some scheming people want to use the emperor to make trouble, Yu is also confident that he can easily extinguish it, so the existence of the emperor is a spur for me, so Weichen will not harm the emperor!"

After listening to Yu Xiaotian's words, a trace of anger appeared on Chongzhen's face, but he still forcibly resisted the desire to lose his anger. After closing his eyes and calming down a little, he opened his eyes again and looked at Yu Xiaotian and said, "At this point, your attempt to usurp the throne has come to an end. Although I am unwilling, I am not But what!

I'm not afraid of death. I have nothing to say about how you deal with me, but there is nothing wrong with the princes under me. They are just born in the royal family! I just hope you can leave their lives, even if they can hide their names and be ordinary people in the future! I wonder if you can promise me?"

Yu Xiaotian shook his head and said, "The emperor's words are serious. Although Yu's hands are stained with a lot of blood, he is not a murderous person. Please rest assured that Yu can guarantee that as long as the emperor and several princes do not repeat the heart of the Ming Dynasty, then I can guarantee that I will never harm you! Even a single hair won't touch you! Yu thought he still had this credibility, and he would never break his promise!

Of course, the premise is that the emperor and the princes should also promise me not to do anything exceptional, so Weichen can definitely ensure your safety!"

Chongzhen took a deep breath and forced himself to resist the anger in his heart. Yu Xiaotian's words today have made it very clear that he has decided to usurp the throne and undisguised his ambition in front of him. For him, today's registered emperor, I'm afraid no one will be pleased with it.

But in the past three years, Chongzhen's life under house arrest in the palace and accompanying the concubine prince and princess every day has softened his heart a lot. If he said that he wanted to usurp the throne when Yu Xiaotian entered Beijing three years ago, he would not hesitate to commit suicide and die, and would not hesitate to take these concubines and princes. The Lord was buried with him, but now he found that he was reluctant to give up.

In the past, as a father, he rarely had time to accompany the princes and princesses because of his daily life, so even if he loved them, he was not very emotionally. However, after these three years, he had established a deep relationship with the princes and princesses. Thinking that one day he would try to see the princes in Xiaotian, Chongzhen shuddered when he put the butcher knife on their neck.

This is also the reason why he invited Yu Xiaotian to see him this time. He did not want Yu Xiaotian to let him live on that day, but he hoped that Yu Xiaotian could let go of these princes and princesses and not harm them.

Today, Yu Xiaotian finally said his ambition. It was clear that the carriages and horses were going to seize his big tomorrow and then live in it by himself. As the emperor, how could Chongzhen not be angry? But now he also knows that everything is irreparable. He can only let it go, but he does not have the ability to resist at all.
