The smile on Huang Taiji's face instantly froze and became extremely gloomy!
"Big brother, what's wrong?"
Dorgon frowned.
"Chongzhen didn't kill Yuan Chonghuan!" "Not only did they not kill him, they even sent Sun Chengzong to supervise Ji Liao and Yuan Chonghuan to Hebei to atone for their crimes!" Huang Taiji said in a deep voice.”
"What?!"
"How did this happen?"
The expressions of Dorgon and the others changed slightly.
"Didn't we receive news that Chongzhen wished he could cut Yuan Chonghuan into a thousand pieces? Why would Chongzhen suddenly change his mind?”Fan Wencheng also had a solemn expression on his face.
"I don't know!"
Huang Taiji's expression was extremely ugly as he said,"Furthermore, because of Yuan Chonghuan's matter, Chongzhen also found out that Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren were two corrupt officials. They raided Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren's homes and took out tens of millions of taels of silver to enrich the Ming Dynasty's national treasury!”
"Yuan Chonghuan alone was already difficult for us to deal with.”
"If we let Sun Chengzong replace Yuan Chonghuan now, will our Houjin still be able to break through the Guanning defense line?”
"I'm afraid that it will be difficult for us to even enter the pass in the future!”Dorgon analyzed.
"Hmph, I told you that we should've killed Yuan Chonghuan and his ten thousand Guanning Cavalry when we passed through Mongolia!”
Duo Duo snorted coldly and looked at Fan Wencheng coldly.""Some people insisted that if we didn't kill Yuan Chonghuan, someone else would!”
"Now, Yuan Chonghuan is not dead, and Sun Chengzong has been reactivated!”
"The Ming Court has the experience of us borrowing Mongolia this time. They will definitely have some defenses at Xifeng Pass. If we let Yuan Chonghuan guard Hebei and reorganize the military affairs, we can only bite through the Guanning defense line or fight Yuan Chonghuan head-on!”
Fan Wencheng frowned. He knew that Tudor was blaming him. He pondered for a moment and said,""Lord Baylor, if you were to take down the ten thousand Guanning Cavalry that Yuan Chonghuan had, how long do you think it would take?”
"The Guanning Iron Cavalry is not that easy to deal with. Once we are held back by Yuan Chonghuan, the Ming court will send troops to encircle and annihilate us!”
"Humph, other than the border army, where else does Great Ming have soldiers?”"I think it's you, Fan Wancheng, who deliberately let Yuan Chonghuan go and secretly colluded with Ming!"”
"I've said it before, the Han lackeys are unreliable, only the Eight Banners are the most reliable!”
"You!" Fan Wencheng was so angry that his face turned red.
Ever since he joined the Houjin, even Huang Taiji had been polite to him. Now, Duo Duo dared to call him a Han lackey!
"Enough!"
Huang Taiji shouted,"Duo Duo, get lost. Ming hasn't been defeated yet and you want to fight among yourself?"”
Tudor's face was ashen. He snorted coldly and didn't dare to make a sound.
Huang Taiji then looked at Fan Wencheng and said with a gentle expression,"Mister Fan, is it still possible to drive a wedge between the monarch and his subjects?”
"Impossible."
Fan Wancheng shook his head slightly." Even when he led his troops into the military advisor, Chongzhen didn't kill Yuan Chonghuan. It's very difficult to kill Yuan Chonghuan with a scheme!"”
"The only thing we can do now is to continue accumulating strength and wait for the next opportunity.”
……
……
In the capital.
In the harem.
Chongzhen, who had been marking memorials for a day, saw that the sky was gradually darkening. He dragged his tired body to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility to have dinner with Empress Zhou and Zhu Ci.
Chongzhen looked a little tired today!
Zhu Ci Xin looked at Chong Zhen, whose face was full of fatigue and had two dark circles under his eyes, and sighed in his heart.
Forget it, it was better to not criticize Chongzhen in the future. Chongzhen was also pitiful. He worked so hard but did not save the Ming that he missed so much.
All these thoughts fell into Chong Zhen's mind. Chong Zhen was very tired and could not be bothered to argue with Zhu Ci.
What he was worried about now was food!
Money can't buy food. Isn't it infuriating?
Zhu Ciyao, who was at the side, was eating crazily. The delicacies on the table were delicious.
It had to be said that there were quite a lot of delicious food in the Ming Dynasty. There were also many varieties and it looked very good.
"Eh?"
"Isn't this a meatball?"
"It tastes weird."
Zhu Ci picked up a meatball and chewed it. He couldn't help but frown in confusion. This taste was a little familiar!
"Pin 'er, the potatoes have just been sent over from Shaanxi. If you like them, you can eat more.”
Empress Zhou gently picked one up for Zhu Cishi.
F * ck!
Potato!
Zhu Ci was shocked!
No wonder the taste was so familiar but strange!
He had never eaten this kind of potato meatball before.
At this moment, when Chong Zhen heard the words Shaanxi, he couldn't help but sigh and say,"Big partner, now that the disaster situation in Shaanxi has not yet been determined, tell Yang He not to do these things in the future.”
"My people are starving. How can I bear to eat these potatoes?”
Chongzhen put down his chopsticks and was no longer in the mood to eat.
"Emperor, understanding the people is a blessing to the world. Emperor, please take care of your body.”Wang Chengen comforted her.
Your Majesty, it's my fault. I shouldn't have mentioned Shaanxi…"
Empress Zhou said sadly.
Just as Chong Zhen was about to wave his hand and say something, Zhu Ci Xin's inner voice suddenly sounded.
F * ck, Chongzhen, ah Chongzhen, you're guarding a mountain of gold and don't know how to use it!
These potatoes were good stuff and easy to grow. They basically didn't have to pick the land. In the worse places, they could produce 3,000 catties per mu. In the better places, it was possible to produce 6,000 catties per mu!
If Da Ming promoted this thing, would he still be afraid that the people of Shaanxi would not have food to eat?
I'm afraid the entire Ming Dynasty will have it!
I remember that at this time, sweet potatoes were also introduced to Big Ming. That's a good thing with a higher yield!
Tsk tsk, it was a pity that the officials of this era were too limited. They actually treated potatoes as a rare breed and only used them for their own use!
If it could be promoted earlier, Chongzhen wouldn't have caused disaster victims everywhere!
Zhu Ci Xin couldn't help but complain in his heart.
What the hell!
The potatoes could actually reach 6,000 catties per mu!
Chongzhen was completely shocked!
One had to know that Da Ming only planted two crops at this time.
One was rice. The average yield of rice planted in the south was less than 500 catties per year!
And the wheat in the north was only about 200 to 300 catties per mu!
If the potatoes could really reach the yield of three to six thousand catties per mu that Zhu Cixi had mentioned!
How terrifying would that be!
Does Da Ming still lack food?
Chongzhen didn't even dare to imagine!
This was a tenfold difference!
Big Ming is saved!
The disaster in Shaanxi can be settled!
As long as there was food, the bandits in Shaanxi would not be able to do anything!
"Potato, sweet potato!"
Chong Zhen immediately remembered these two crops.
The potatoes were tributes, and the palace had them!
What was a sweet potato?
Find him immediately!
Thinking of this, Chong Zhen no longer had the mood to eat. He greeted Empress Zhou and said,"Zhen still has important matters to deal with.”
"Empress, you and Pin 'er eat slowly!”
With that, Chongzhen stood up and left.
When he left, he picked up the plate of potatoes that Zhu Cixi wanted to pick up.
"Pin 'er, you should eat something else!”
"This, Zhen wants it!"
With that, Chong Zhen ran out with a plate of potato meatballs in his hands.
Wang Chengen quickly followed.
Empress Zhou and Zhu Ci Xin were dumbfounded.
Hey, Chongzhen, are you the emperor? Do emperors eat takeout?
Empress Zhou also looked at her husband leaving with a plate of potatoes. She felt very strange, but soon she felt very distressed.
Chongzhen was in a hurry to deal with government affairs, so he left with his plate before he was full.
