If it were normal, Zhu Cilang would not dare to provoke these censors. They have a hundred ways to create public opinion and criticize you.

But now it is different. When using people, especially Huang Taiji's invasion, he gave Zhu Cilang a chance.

In previous years, when I heard that it was Jiannu who was invading, the whole court would be in an uproar. Some people were worried and some were afraid.

Since the Tianqi period, after Nurhaci raised his army, the Ming Dynasty has been passively beaten. Although there is a slight victory, there is always more defeat than less victory.

On several occasions, Huang Taiji was even directly attacked by the pass, and even the troops came to the city of Beijing.

After all, everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. Huang Taiji really broke through Beijing City, and everyone has to finish it.

I don’t know when it started, probably after Huang Taiji suffered several losses under the prince. Everyone had high hopes for this young prince.

Now that Jiannu is invading again, the prince will inevitably have to take action. The prince has a tiger army with a tiger and wolf army in his hands.

Although the Hu Ben Army only has 3,000 people, it is the strongest elite in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cixuan also knew this truth. Since everyone was using him, he could not punish him at this time. Since that was the case, why would he be polite to the censors? It would be a great gift to not scold their ancestors for the eighteen generations.

The censors probably knew that the crown prince was not easy to provoke at this time. So everyone didn't dare to cry anymore.

It’s like the censors all rely on their identities to be aggressive. Zhu Cilang just replied indifferently: I’m not targeting anyone, I mean everyone here is a hot chicken.

The prince is crazy. Reality tells these censors that it is best not to provoke a madman.

Although Emperor Chongzhen was very angry, he wanted to deal with his son who was ignorant of etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame. However, he is probably indispensable in Liaodong.

"Enough! As a prince, what kind of morality is it? Now Jiannu Kuoguan, who can fight!"

Chongzhen deliberately pulled the topic away, but he didn't want his son to really become the target of public criticism. After all, Zhu Cilang's remarks just now were enough to make him doomed.

Jiannu, who can fight? No one in the court dared to stand up. Originally, those censors who were jumping and eager to try were immediately mute.

Zhu Cilang didn't say anything or stand up. He deliberately delayed such embarrassment, and Zhu Cilang was very happy to see the helpless look of these ministers.

They are all hypocritical on weekdays, and their slogans are clamoring. They are all loyal to the Ming Dynasty when they are swearing to death, and the old ministers are devoted to their lives until they die. When things come to an end, they are all pretending to be dead.

In fact, it cannot be said that all the civil and military officials in the court were useless. Once upon a time, there were a few passionate guys. However, the passionate guys died in battle and the murdered guys were killed. Later, most ministers learned to pretend to die.

Chongzhen was very disappointed and angry at the same time. No one of the civil and military officials in the court could use it. In desperation, he had to look at his son.

Although I don’t want to admit it very much, it seems that I can only rely on my son at this time.

"Father, my son is willing to lead troops to Liaodong." Finally, Zhu Cilang stood up.

In the past, there would be more or less a few ministers standing up and saying that the prince should not take risks or the prince's mighty and majestic nonsense.

But after Zhu Cixuan ran away in the court and angrily criticized several censors, no one dared to stand up and flatter.

Chongzhen said "Yes": "Will you take your Hu Ben Army?"

Zhu Cilang nodded: "It is the three thousand Tiger Army outside Erchen City, but my father and Erchen have no food, grass and military pay."

The Hu Ben Army was a strange army, an alien of this era. It was under the jurisdiction of the prince, but it was not organized by the court, and the military pay, food and supplies were raised on the spot.

In other words, the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War of the court will not give you a penny. As for how to raise soldiers, find a way for yourself.

Zhu Cilang basically relied on Xishan Glass Factory and Jinyiwei to get some commercial taxes in the capital to support the three thousand Tiger Ben Army. When he was searching Fan Yongdou, he got 10 million taels of silver.

However, part of this money was used to open up the salt road. Some of it, Zhu Cixuan did not want to touch the money until the critical moment.

This time when Zhu Cilang sent troops to Liaodong, he didn't want to be a sucker. If he wanted the Hu Ben Army to do his best, he would have to give some military pay, food, and other support.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongzhen had already learned his intelligence, but he was silent: "I have allowed you to recruit and train the Hu Ben Army privately, which is very kind. I don't have any money for military pay, food, and you can find a way for yourself. Before, weren't you prepared to go to Liaodong very well?"

Emperor Chongzhen had his own reasons for his anger. Since the Hu Ben Army's court did not care, Zhu Cilang could only find a way out.

Outside the city, the Huben Army camp was built along the mountain. It is said that the place called Yungang Mountain has been hollowed out at the foot of the mountain. Inside, the Huben Army stored a large amount of military rations.

Some people say that these foods are enough for the Hu Ben Army to eat for three years in war, and some even say that they are enough for the people in Beijing for several months. In short, there are many sayings that follow the crowd.

When Beijing was relocating refugees and when the food was in short supply, Emperor Chongzhen asked his son if he could even give the military rations you prepared for the Hu Ben Army to the people. But I heard that you had hoarded a lot of food.

Zhu Cilang was treacherous and insisted that there was no. The food and grass of the three camps could not be moved, so why should he be moved from the Hu Ben Army? He would rather use the food stored in the imperial village than from the Hu Ben Army.

Zhu Cilang argued with reason, and Emperor Chongzhen was speechless. This time he went north, Zhu Cilang wanted military pay and food. Chongzhen used his own way to treat him, but he did not give him any more.

In fact, Zhu Cilang didn't have any hope. He didn't know that he asked casually and refused to let him down: "Okay, my father, I will inevitably have a fierce battle with Jiannu this time. Before I left, I still wanted to persuade my father: All censors can be killed!"

This was too much. Zhu Cilang repeatedly provoked. These censors were all filled with righteous indignation. They were about to speak, but in the face of Emperor Chongzhen's murderous gaze, they all chose to shut up.

Emperor Chongzhen finally realized that these censors were indeed extremely overwhelming. Sometimes what his son said might not be wrong.

Sometimes many of my decisions are obviously right, but these censors end up unknowingly.

Thinking about it now, Chongzhen became more and more angry the more he thought about it. The censors suddenly felt that something was wrong. When an emperor ignored his reputation, it was time for the censors to be in trouble.

Before, the emperors were afraid of being a fool or a tyrant, so they tried their best tolerate the censors. But when they arrived at Zhu Cilang, they didn't work, and Zhu Cilang seemed to hate the censors very much.
