Chapter 884 is chilling
Now that they have lost their backer, they naturally have to settle accounts with each other, and they still remember Zhang Juzheng.
The first Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty had been to the little immortal before. He was a super serious old man.
It was obvious at first glance that he was not someone to be trifled with, and his Single Whip Law saved the Ming Dynasty for decades.
The Ming Dynasty was so lucky. Yu Qian in front and Zhang Juzheng in the back saved the Ming Dynasty from danger and gave it a new lease of life.
Anyone who sees this will be envious.
"After Senior Zhang Juzheng died, as you all know, our ancestors were liquidated by Emperor Wanli, and as Senior Qi Jiguang, who was promoted by Senior Zhang Juzheng, you were naturally also affected.
At this time, all kinds of demons and monsters will come out, and they all want to step on you. As the saying goes, when people leave, the tea gets cold.
And you were backstabbed," Li Wu looked at Qi Jiguang with sympathy. How can one describe such a thing as being backstabbed? It is very uncomfortable, especially being backstabbed by someone one trusts. Most people suffer a lot.
Qi Jiguang looked at Li Wu, as if asking who had stabbed him in the back. He asked himself if he had treated his men very well.
After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out who stabbed him in the back.
Zhao Yun and Zong Ze also looked at Qi Jiguang with sympathy. They guessed that it must be someone close to Qi Jiguang who stabbed him in the back.
They are more open-minded about this kind of thing. Only when they fall into poverty can they see clearly whether the people around them are human or ghost.
"He is the 'Western General' Chen Wenzhi, who was promoted by you, Senior Qi Jiguang.
He spread rumors in the capital, hoping to bring down Senior Qi Jiguang and replace him.
The Imperial Censor Zhang Dingsi impeached Qi Jiguang, saying that he had made no contributions in Jizhen and it would be better for him to be transferred to the south.
One after another, they took advantage of the situation, so naturally, Song Shenzong followed Zhang Dingsi's advice.
Mr. Qi Jiguang, you were promoted to the commander-in-chief guarding Guangdong.
I don’t want to say much about Emperor Wanli.” Many people say that the Ming Dynasty started to fail with Emperor Wanli, while others say it started with Zhu Qizhen.
"It's actually him!" Qi Jiguang couldn't believe it. The person he had brought up would actually do that. If he wanted to replace him openly, but did so by engaging in conspiracies and tricks, he would really look down on him.
"Young Qi Jiguang, don't be sad. Those people are just jealous of you." Zhao Yun patted his shoulder and said, "Have a drink."
The three of them drank three more cups. Li Wu pursed his lips and said, "Okay, let the three seniors drink a few more cups."
In front of the sky curtain, Zhang Dingsi and Chen Wenzhi, whose names were mentioned, turned pale.
The people of Qi's army were even more furious. What an ungrateful guy! Chen Wenzhi had forgotten how General Qi treated them. So Chen Wenzhi was severely punished by the soldiers of Qi's army.
Zhang Dingsi wasn't much better.
"Stop, three seniors, three cups is enough," Li Wu saw that they wanted to drink more, so he stopped them and said, "We are almost done, we still have to leave for the amusement park soon!"
"Then we'll listen to you, little immortal," the three of them put down their wine glasses and started eating. The wine was so fragrant that it filled their noses from time to time.
"On the day that you, Senior Qi Jiguang, left the town, the people in the town were so reluctant to let you go that they requested the imperial court to allow you to stay, but the court refused. The people saw you off and cried all the way.
So from this we can see that Mr. Qi Jiguang, you did a very good job, otherwise so many people wouldn’t like you, right?
Not long after you left, a Mongolian army broke into Heiyukou. Someone asked you, Mr. Qi Jiguang, to stay and guard the place, but your permission was not granted.
In 1583 AD, Mr. Qi Jiguang officially took up his post in Guangdong.
Guangdong is at peace at this time, but you, Mr. Qi Jiguang, are feeling very depressed and uncomfortable.
In addition, your good friend Yu Dayou and your subordinates Wang Rulong, Chen Dacheng and others passed away one after another, and you felt unprecedented loneliness.
Later, as you were old and in poor health, you resigned.
In addition, those people in the Imperial Censorate have impeached you again and again, and Song Shenzong actually has no good impression of you anymore.
After reading your resignation letter, I agreed without a second thought.
Later, Mr. Qi Jiguang returned to his former residence in Penglai.
After being dismissed from office, Mr. Qi Jiguang's life was not easy, because you could only spend your salary by repairing the family temple, hiring teachers to teach your children, and sorting out old official documents.
So much so that the family didn't even have money to buy medicine.
Your wife Wang also left you, and the court's attitude towards you also made you very disappointed.
To ask Mr. Qi Jiguang why you couldn’t save any money after being an official for so many years, this is actually a good question.
First of all, the court salary is actually not that much, plus you have to support your family. Also, in order to win the hearts of the people, you often donate generously to reward those who have made contributions.
In 1587, Fu Guangzong, the censor of Henan Province, submitted a memorial to the court, hoping that Qi Jiguang would be re-employed because of his outstanding military achievements, extraordinary talents and young age.
But the result was very disappointing. Not only was Fu Guangzong rejected, he was also fined two months' salary.
They were also thinking about the Ming Dynasty, but this is the result they got.
Under the harsh political environment and the torture of poverty, Mr. Qi Jiguang suddenly fell ill and died at the age of 60.
After the court learned of your death,
Not even any relief was given, not even a token of appreciation.
This is too disheartening for the soldiers," Li Wu felt sorry for Qi Jiguang, as he had a miserable life in his later years.
This is the case for many military generals and civil officials. They are glorious in the early stages but miserable in the later stages.
In the barrage, the Ming Dynasty was mocked by other dynasties, saying that the Ming Dynasty was so poor that it couldn’t even support a general?
If they couldn't afford to support him, they could give it to their dynasty, which needed it very much. They guaranteed that even when Qi Jiguang got old, the court would provide for his retirement.
After seeing this, some Ming generals were as disheartened as Qi Jiguang. Qi Jiguang had made so many military achievements, but lived such a miserable life later. What about them?
Ming Taizu and Ming Chengzu were cursed again in the barrage, especially Ming Chengzu, who was originally an emperor. When he saw what his descendants did, he was so angry that he almost fainted.
At the very least, there should be some expression. However, the imperial court did not show any expression at all.

"It was not until two years later that your eldest son Qi Zuoguo came to the capital to request for relief, and the court issued an imperial decree to hold a funeral.
Later, after Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne as the Xizong of the Ming Dynasty, the Prime Minister Ye Xianggao submitted a memorial requesting the posthumous title of Qi Jiguang, in which he listed the great contributions of Qi Jiguang, appealed for you, and vindicated you.
Later, the imperial court changed the posthumous title for Qi Jiguang to "Wu Yi".
In the eighth year of Chongzhen, the imperial court built a temple in Penglai to honor Mr. Qi Jiguang and held sacrifices in spring and autumn.
Senior Qi Jiguang, your contributions are still remembered by some people," Li Wu looked at Qi Jiguang's not-so-good-looking face and winked at Zhao Yun and Zong Ze.
