On the twenty-seventh month of the seventh month of the seventh year of Tianqi, He Xie was enthroned as emperor in the Hall of Huangji, which was twenty-seven days earlier than the original history.

According to the Great Ming ancestral system, the new emperor must use the new year name when he ascends the throne. The cabinet ministers put forward four proposals on the title of the era.

The four era names are Gansheng, Xingfu, Xianjia and Chongzhen respectively.

He Xie still uses the Chongzhen era name.

On the third day of the eighth month in the seventh year of the Tianqi year, Yan Peiwei, the censor of the imperial court, impeached the cabinet Huang Liji, Shi Fenglai, and Zhang Ruitu for corruption and corruption. On the same day, the emperor summoned Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan to Beijing, intending to revive them.

On the 14th day of the eighth month, Huang Liji and other three cabinet ministers were dismissed without their titles. On the same day, the emperor met Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi and Han Kuang in the palace, and they talked very happily.

The next day, Sun Chengzong accepted Ding Baiying as his righteous daughter.

On the 23rd of August, the monarchs and ministers gathered in the Huangji Hall. The emperor proposed Yan Peiwei, Xu Guangqi and Han Kuang to enter the cabinet.

On August 25th, Li Kuilong, the censor of the Zuo deputy capital, impeached the Jiangnan tea merchant Cao Jian, who was in the village of fish and meat, so that the people could not live.

This Li Kuilong is one of the five tigers of the **** party, and the civil and military officials naturally know that this is a scene that the emperor wants to raise army salaries for Sun Chengzong and is short of money, so he directed and acted it himself.

However, the Donglin Party has not revived like the original history. There is no one in the Jiangnan tea merchants, and naturally no one dares to speak for them.

On the same day, the Ministry of Rites asked for a wedding, but the emperor refused on the grounds of mourning. The next day, the ministers invited him again, and the emperor allowed him to choose Lu Xiangsheng as the candidate for the marriage.

On August 26, the emperor promoted Jinyiwei Qianhu Shen Lian to be the commander of the Nanzhen Fusi, Lu Jianxing and Pei Lun were the commanders of the Beizhen Fusi, and posthumously presented the late Beizhen Fusi commander Lu Wenzhao Jinyiwei Commander Make, add marquis, pursue posthumous Zhonglie.

Jue, etc., a total of twelve major crimes, the ministers reconsidered.

These five people are Wei Zhongxian's henchmen, known as the "Five Tigers". At this time, Wei Zhongxian was raiding his home and exterminating his family in Jiangnan, causing a **** storm. The eunuchs have no leader and cannot resist the sudden change in the wind direction and the overwhelming pressure.

On the third day of September, the charges against the "Five Tigers" were verified, and they were sentenced to confiscated property and executed.

The five tigers were destroyed, and the ministers were excited. In the next period of time, the impeachment of Wei Zhongxian from the court rose more and more, but they were all suppressed by the emperor.

On the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, Shaoxing Gongsheng Qian Jiazheng dismissed Wei Zhongxian's ten major crimes, saying that he "exhausted all the bamboos in the Nanshan Mountains, not enough to write his accusations of rape, to resolve the waves of the East China Sea, and it is difficult to wash away his sins".

The emperor was furious: "How dare a thief harm my worthy minister?"

Then he ordered Qian Jiazheng to be deprived of his fame and expelled from Beijing, never to be used again.

After this incident, the ministers no longer impeached Wei Zhongxian, but began to squeeze the living space of the **** party in the court.

Anyone who impeaches the guards of the factory will be kept by the emperor, and only the eunuchs who are officials in the court will be ignored by the emperor. After going back and forth, the ministers figured out the emperor's mind, so by the end of September, the **** force that Wei Zhongxian had worked so hard to build up in the court and in the army was completely eradicated.

But the foundation of his East Factory remained untouched.

On the first day of October, the emperor chose Ding Baiying as the queen.

On the 16th day of November, the emperor reprimanded Wei Zhongxian for his unfavorable conduct, which had already provoked civil upheaval. He also killed Wang Tigan to thank Jiangnan and soothe the hearts of the people.

On November 23, the emperor promoted Sun Chuanting to be the governor of Jiangnan.

At this time, a situation of competition between the Zhejiang Party, the Chu Party, and the Wu Party had formed in the court. Jinyiwei and Dongchang were completely separated, and Pei Lun, the commander of Jinyiwei, reprimanded Wei Zhongxian on the spot, also spread all over the world.

But this does not mean that Wei Zhongxian has lost power since then, Dongchang is still a behemoth, but the forces of Dongchang have completely withdrawn from the court and the frontier army.

On the fifth day of the 12th lunar month, the emperor got married, and Ding Baiying was sealed.

In January of the first year of Chongzhen, Xu Guangqi, the second assistant of the cabinet, presented works such as the Complete Book of Agricultural Administration, the Essentials of Fire Raiders, and the Law of Gunpowder Making, as well as sweet potatoes. He ordered him to supervise the construction of artillery with all his strength, and enabled a large number of foreign missionaries to enter the firearms casting bureau as master craftsmen, and he was generously rewarded with silver.

In June, Fugu Wang Jiayin and Wang Ziyin rioted and captured Huanglong Mountain. Then King Zuohang of Yichuan, Gao Yingxiang of Ansai, Zhang Cunmeng of Luochuan, monk King Yanchuan, King Daliang of Hannan and others responded, shouting, "Sit down and starve to death, why not steal and die!"

The civil unrest soon became a prairie prairie, and the war burned all over Shaanxi!

The emperor enlisted Lu Xiang to be promoted to the governor-general of Shaanxi Province, allocated 3 million taels of silver, and ordered him to do all he could to relieve the disaster, suppress the people's rebellion, and kill the chief evildoer without pardon.

In September, during the great victory in Shaanxi, the leaders of the mob, including Gao Yingxiang, Wang Jiayin, and Wang Ziyong, all died in the chaos of the army.

In December, the Jinren Kou Bianguan, Sun Chengzong used Yuan Chonghuan, Man Gui, Zu Dashou and others as generals to resist the enemy outside the city of Ningyuan. Due to Sun Chengzong's caution and hesitation, he missed the opportunity to defeat the enemy. Hearing this, the emperor reprimanded Sun Chengzong, and proposed to set up another military aircraft office outside the cabinet, which was opposed by the officials but to no avail.

On the eighth day of the first month of the second year of Chongzhen, Empress Ding gave birth to a prince named Zhu Ciheng, and the whole country celebrated.

In April of the same year, Zhang Xianzhong gathered peasants from Shibazhai in Dingbian County to launch a civil uprising and called himself "Eight Great Kings". Li Zicheng responded in Mizhi County. For a while, the war in Shaanxi resumed.

The emperor was furious. As the governor of Shaanxi, Lu Xiangsheng failed to respond immediately. This is one of them. The memorial was reported to the cabinet at various levels, and the best opportunity to suppress the civil unrest was missed. This is the second. I don't know about military affairs, and I don't pay attention to it. This is the third one.
