Tianqi Imperial Capital.

The moment Prince Gong Murong An made public the petitions and various evidences of the 30 soldiers in the north on the imperial list in front of the Qiankun Gate, the people in front of the Qiankun Gate instantly became furious, and then, within half an hour, they It has spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital.

Nowadays, the anger of the people in various parts of the imperial capital continues to rise sharply, and many storytellers have made various stories about this matter. When the storytellers start, the seats are full...

Today, in order to gain military power in the north, Emperor Mingxi did not hesitate to collude with Nangong Chu, the prince of Qi in Vietnam, to initiate a war between the two countries. He even ordered his deputy general Zhang Tianling to secretly poison Xiao Jingpeng, the Marquis of Wu'an, in order to regain military power in the north.

After this plan failed, he took advantage of the scattered strength of the northern army to send Yang Yuqing, the left minister of the Ministry of War, and more than 5000 masters to attack the northern military camp at night and assassinate Xiao Jingpeng, the Marquis of Wu'an.That night, the northern military camp was in danger, and many soldiers lost their lives. The second lady also died on the spot trying to save Wu'an Hou. Fortunately, the Eleventh Prince arrived in time and saved Wu'an Hou's life.

That night, thousands of men in black attacked and burned the supply camp at night, and even attempted to rescue Li Yuan of Dayue. Fortunately, thanks to the collective efforts of the soldiers in the northern border, the thieves were not allowed to succeed.After investigation, it was found that these people and the masters who assassinated Marquis Wu'an in the military camp came from the same place.

Now, Marquis Wu'an has mastered all the evidence and handed it over to the court. The 30 soldiers in the northern border have written to the court together, respectfully requesting Queen Mother Ren'an, Prince Yu, and Prince Gong to serve as soldiers in the northern border and uphold justice for the people of Tianqi.

After receiving a petition from 30 soldiers in the north, Prince Yu Murongtang and Prince Gong Murong'an were furious!He did not hesitate to go to the Shouhuang Palace to ask for the tablet of Emperor Qianxing, and angrily broke into the imperial study!Finally, evidence of collusion between Emperor Mingxi and Prince Nangong Chu of Dayueqi was found from the secret room in the secret hall of the imperial study!

Prince Yu and Prince Gong both angrily criticized the superiors for their bad behavior!
In order to rectify the chaos and return to the right path, to authenticate the temple and restore the country, Prime Minister Jiang Peiyuan has now been dispatched to the imperial garden to pick up Empress Dowager Ren'an and return to the imperial capital to preside over the overall situation.

For a time, the streets and alleys of the imperial capital were filled with angry curses!The sound of crusade fills the sky!It is said that it is no wonder that the gravel smashed down the altar of worship to heaven. I heard that the emperor Zhengui broke into pieces at the same time. This was a warning from heaven that the superior was unworthy and unworthy of being an emperor!

In just half a day, the bad news has already spread to surrounding states and capitals, and is spreading to more state capitals with lightning speed. Many literati, scholars, and famous scholars have gathered together to sit in front of the Qiankun Gate Emperor's List to sit down and crusade. , everyone said that they respectfully requested Queen Mother Ren'an to issue an edict to depose the emperor!

Prince Gong had been asking Captain Ma Cheng to secretly monitor the private property under the name of Emperor Mingxi. Just after the imperial list was announced, Ma Cheng and Jiang Mu took the two princes' warrants and the people from the city inspection department to spend half a day. He took over all the royal private property in the name of Emperor Mingxi.More importantly, they took over the operations of the two headquarters of Tiancheng Bank and Zhengtong Bank from the imperial court, and at the same time sent various people to the various states to take over the branches of the bank. The two kings ordered that anyone who disobeyed the order would be executed on the spot!This move can lead to resolute and decisive actions!
The Wu'an Marquis Mansion and the Wending Marquis Mansion also dispatched royal guards to join forces with Dali Temple Minister Liu Zigao to comprehensively investigate and apprehend Prince Qi Nangong Chu's stronghold in the imperial capital. Of course, they also included the secret guards of Emperor Mingxi in Emperor Zongyuan's private residence to assist The two princes took over the entire imperial capital.

Three days later, Queen Mother Ren'an Liu Yue and Fengluan arrived in the imperial capital. Prince Yu Murongtang and Prince Gong Murong'an came to the city gate to greet Fengluan.

Back then, Queen Mother Ren'an Liu Yue was in a dangerous situation. For the sake of her two children, she did not want to suffer too many twists and turns, so she chose to stay away from the palace and disputes. She not only avoided the battle for the legitimate heir, but also successfully saved the two children!
I left that day for these two children, and my return today is also for these two children!In order for these two children to stand upright under the sun!

On the day they entered the city gate, what surprised the people was that they had always said that Princess Jing and King Yan were idiots. But at the gate of the city, when Princess Jing and King Yan got off the carriage to pay homage to the two imperial uncles, they spoke clearly and showed no trace of ignorance. Mutually!Later I heard that it was Queen Mother Ren'an who visited famous doctors countless times before she found the cause and cured her second son's disease!
Back then, the Queen Mother Ren'an brought a pair of foolish children to the Royal Garden. The Royal Garden always kept a low profile, making everyone forget the existence of these two sons!
Yes, who would pay attention to a pair of stupid princes and princesses!

And now, Princess Jing and Prince Yan have finally walked out of the imperial garden, and can finally appear in the sight of the people of Tianqi in a healthy, intelligent and intelligent appearance!
When Jiang Peiyuan arrived at the Royal Garden, and when Princess Jing and Prince Yan drove out of the Royal Garden, the two little figures couldn't hide their excitement!

Along the way, the two little heads kept looking at everything in the outside world. The two pairs of eyes were so curious about everything in the outside world, with unconcealable joy, because the queen mother said that from now on, they no longer have to hide in the imperial garden. Got it!From now on, they can go wherever they want to play!From now on, they can eat delicious food wherever they want!

But the two little guys are also very smart. The queen mother said that they should behave solemnly today, so in front of the city gate, when they got off the car to visit the two imperial uncles, the two little guys bowed politely, as if they were princes and princesses. Dignity and style.

Two hours after Liu Yue, the empress dowager of Ren'an, entered the palace, she passed down an edict, angrily denounced Emperor Mingxi for being immoral and almost putting all the people in dire straits. She had already appealed to the ancestral temple and upheld public opinion to depose Murongxuan from the throne!Expelled from the ancestral temple!

The next day, Empress Dowager Ren'an issued another edict that the country should not be without a king for a day. She respectfully asked Emperor Qianxing's fourth son Murongtang to succeed him as emperor, to shoulder heavy responsibilities for the people of Tianqi and to control the world.

Prince Gong Murong'an, Prince Yan Murong Yan, and Prime Minister Jiang Peiyuan, together with Queen Mother Ren'an and Yi Zhi, personally led the civil and military officials to Prince Yu's Mansion.

When the decree came out of the Qiankun Gate, the scholars, famous scholars and scholars who had been sitting quietly in front of the Qiankun Gate's imperial list all took the initiative to follow the court officials and went to Prince Yu's Mansion.Prince Yu has always been low-key and gentle. He is already highly regarded among the scholars of Tianqi. The Yun Baijiang incident has won unanimous praise from students and celebrities. Now he is just following the trend!

Now that the overall situation has been decided, everything in the imperial capital is under control, so just the night before, Mo Yi's men secretly sent Mrs. Xiao back to the Marquis Wu'an Mansion.

Today, Mrs. Xiao, representing the Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and Dugu Ziyan, representing the Wending Marquis Mansion, appeared in front of Prince Yu's Mansion together, representing the support of the two founding princes for Prince Yu Murongtang.

For a time, in front of Prince Yu's mansion, Tianqi's courtiers, scholars, famous scholars, and ordinary people gathered together. They all respectfully invited Murong Tang, the fourth son of Emperor Qianxing, to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to inherit the throne according to God's will and the people's will. .

And Prince Yu Murongtang also accepted the decree of Queen Mother Ren'an!

With the support of everyone, he took a dragon chariot to the Hall of Supreme Harmony and ascended the throne as emperor. On the day he ascended the throne, he was renamed Qiyuan!
"Book of Rites: Ritual Utensils" says: Three words and three concessions will come.Why didn’t Prince Yu Murongtang take this path?
Because of the current situation, the hearts of the people of Tianqi are floating!Dai Viet is unwilling to accept it and is eyeing it with eager eyes!Neighboring countries are also waiting to see!Therefore, we can only solve it quickly!

Even more because Apocalypse at this moment needs a backbone!

Once the throne is pending, it means there will be variables, including the spying of foreign enemies and the counterattack of the deposed emperor!

However, in order to avoid being used and criticized by intentional people in the future.

Therefore, Queen Mother Ren'an issued a special decree, and Prince Yu ascended the throne in compliance with Yi's decree!

Therefore, Xiao Jinxi specially sent Mrs. Xiao back to the imperial capital one day early, so Dugu Ziyan also appeared, representing the positions of the two founding princes!

Due to the rush of time, there was no time to make the emperor's dragon robe, so Prince Yu ascended the throne wearing a prince's attire and a crown. After the dragon robe was made and the altar of sacrifice to heaven was rebuilt, he would wear the dragon robe again to sue heaven and earth on another day!Emperor Mingxi's dragon robes were considered unlucky, and Emperor Qiyuan ordered them all to be burned on the day he ascended the throne.

It was originally January of the second year of Mingxi, but now it is January of the first year of Qiyuan!
In less than two years after Emperor Murong Xuan of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne, his path to becoming an emperor was ruined!Become the first deposed emperor of the Apocalypse Dynasty!

Emperor Qiyuan still respected Queen Mother Liu Yue as Queen Mother Ren'an, and in compliance with Queen Mother Ren'an's wishes, after the court was stabilized, she would continue to return to the Imperial Garden to recuperate.

In just five days, the Apocalypse Dynasty has changed its owner!His actions were quick, but he won the hearts of his subjects.

The reign name Qiyuan means that Emperor Qiyuan will uphold Taizu's original intention, lead the subjects of the Apocalypse Dynasty, and conspire for the prosperous age of Apocalypse!
On the day he ascended the throne, Emperor Qiyuan issued three imperial edicts.

The first imperial edict informed the world that Murong Xuan had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed his country, colluded with the Prince of Qi in Vietnam to stir up war between the two countries, murdered Zhongliang, and maimed the soldiers in the northern border. He should be punished for his crime. Xiao Jingpeng, the Marquis of Wu'an, led the northern army to capture Murong Xuan.On the same day, people were sent to rush to the north to convey the imperial edict of Emperor Qiyuan.

The second imperial edict is that the army and imperial army that followed Murong Xuan to the north will return to the imperial court from now on. Anyone who does not comply will be punished for collaborating with the enemy, treason, and rebellion.

This imperial edict did not mention Murong Xuan's secret guards. It was not that Emperor Qi Yuan did not want to recruit these secret guards, but that these secret guards followed Murong Xuan and did too many things that were not worthy of publicity. No, not just that, There are also many things that happened to Emperor Zong Yuan back then, and it is no longer possible for these secret guards to return to the royal family.

The unwillingness to recruit people also means that Murong Xuan is left with a lot of manpower, which may cause a lot of trouble.

However, if the new emperor ascends the throne, if he pretends to recruit people, and then convicts these secret guards when they come back, although these people have a reason for their crimes, if it is really reported that they are not protected, they will be criticized by those who are interested in disturbing the people's hearts.

Although it took five days for Tianqi's court to successfully change the master, the war between Tianqi and Vietnam had just ended, and the deposed emperor had already chilled the people's hearts. At this time, the people's hearts were floating, and they must not cause any more twists and turns because of this incident. Thinking of this, Emperor Qiyuan finally This approach was abandoned.

Therefore, Emperor Qiyuan issued the third imperial edict, telling the world that no matter who he was or where he came from, anyone who captured Murong Xuan and his accomplices would be rewarded based on their merits, and Emperor Qiyuan would personally award the rewards based on their merits.

As soon as this imperial edict came out, the subjects of Tianqi and even the heroes in the world were sharpening their swords and spears, eager to try it.

Soon, the news about the broken stones falling on the Temple of Heaven, the shattering of Emperor Mingxi’s Zhengui, the reason why Emperor Mingxi was deposed, and the ascension of Emperor Qiyuan to the throne were spread to all the prefectures in Tianqi Prefecture!
At the same time, the pumice stone of Yunbai River in Binzhou in the north, where Taizu raised his troops, showed a picture of two stars accompanying the moon. If the two stars are combined with the moon, the country will have soldiers and establish princes and kings. Those with virtue will prosper and those without virtue will perish.It is also spread to all the prefectures of Tianqi!
For a time, the people of Tianqi's anger against the deposed emperor increased to an unprecedented level!

However, the people of Tianqi are also grateful that there are still people in the Tianqi royal family who can shoulder this burden!Fortunately, Marquis Wu'an still leads the army to guard the northern border!Otherwise, there will probably be war in Tianqi and the people of Tianqi will be displaced.This is the idea in the hearts of the people of Tianqi that the virtuous will prosper and the unvirtuous will perish!

As for Emperor Mingxi's harem, Su Miaowan and Yan Jieyu, Jiang Shuyan, are still imprisoned in their respective palaces, waiting for the previous affairs to be completed before they can discuss matters.

Liu Shuyi, Yangliu, and the two legitimate daughters of Yang Yuqing, the left minister of the Ministry of War, have been sentenced to death together with everyone in the Yang family. When the court affairs are decided, Emperor Qiyuan will issue an imperial edict to convict them.

Jiang Yiyi, the Minister of Household Affairs, was also imprisoned. It was said that after he came out of the Dark Hall, he followed all the civil and military officials to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Prince Yu announced Jiang Yiyi's guilt in public. The charge was favoritism. Bending the law, falsifying accounts and accepting bribes!I heard that banks all over the world secretly honor him with a lot of money and antiques every year!I heard that Prince Yu had begun secretly investigating this person a long time ago. Now that all evidence has been collected, he was immediately imprisoned in Dali Temple Prison, waiting for the trial of Mr. Liu, the Minister of Dali Temple.

When they captured Jiang and took off his official uniform, a message from Emperor Mingxi fell out of his body!
The letter was opened on the spot. When Mr. Liu, the minister of Dali Temple, saw the letter, he was frightened!

Later, Mr. Liu, the minister of Dali Temple, inspected Jiang's house on the order of Prince Yu, and found many prepared perjury from Jiang Yitong's study, pointing directly at Sihai Bank!When he saw the forgeries, Liu Zigao was even more shocked. He secretly sighed that if he had been a step too late, Sihai Bank would be framed and shut down!
Liu Zigao handed these perjured evidence to Emperor Qi Yuan, but this frame-up had not been implemented after all, so it could not be used to convict him.But it doesn't matter. For Jiang Yiyi, the absence of this incident does not affect his conviction.

Nowadays, the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue is vacant. Emperor Qiyuan issued an order. Zhao Yutang, the prefect of Yunzhou, was decisive and resolute. When the Yunzhou embankment burst, he was calm and resolute in dealing with the matter, thus reducing more casualties.Later, they were diligent and conscientious in handling the aftermath of the disaster.Furthermore, in the Yunzhou Yunbaijiang repair fund embezzlement and corruption case, the people were even more observant and upright.According to the imperial edict, Zhao Yutang immediately rushed to the imperial capital, took over the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Hubu, and reorganized the Ministry of Hubu. The right minister of the Ministry of Hubu assisted him.

The whereabouts of Liu Zheng, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue, is unknown, but it is said that he left the Yangzhou office on his own. Why exactly is unknown, but he left Yangzhou privately without being summoned by Emperor Qiyuan and did not report to the court, which is an act of dereliction of duty. Convicted.

On the tenth day after Emperor Qi Yuan ascended the throne, the Xia Family Army in the Western Region also submitted a memorial to Emperor Qi Yuan, congratulating our emperor on his accession to the throne. The Xia Family Army vowed to defend the Western Region for Tianqi.

Of course, there are also people who are unwilling but unable to do anything!
But I can only complain at home, why the new emperor is not the son of Emperor Zongyuan, but the son of Emperor Qianxing, a full generation ago!But once he went out, he didn't dare to utter another word, just because he was afraid of being drowned in everyone's spit. Even at a private dinner, someone helped him to make a comment or two, but he didn't dare to answer and hurriedly spoke out. I stopped him just because I was afraid of causing trouble for myself, and even more afraid that I wouldn't even be able to be a free prince in the end!They are the fourth son of Emperor Zong Yuan, Prince Rui Murong Rui, and the eighth son of Emperor Zong Yuan, Prince Qing Murong Qing.

Back then, the four sons were competing for the throne, but these two had never participated. They knew they were incompetent and were even more afraid of death.Therefore, after a battle for the right to inherit the throne, the sixth prince Murong Xuan ascended the throne, but did not touch these two, and only allowed them to be free princes. Of course, it was not that Murong Xuan was merciful, but that if all his brothers died, , but his reputation is not good.

Now, Emperor Qianxing's son has ascended the throne, and Emperor Qiyuan Murongtang is the uncle of the Fourth Emperor of King Rui and King Qing. The status of these two people is naturally lower than before. Both of them shook their heads helplessly, but that's all they can do. , at least he can still be a leisurely prince.

After all, Empress Dowager Ren'an also had a son named Yan, who was still young but was his legitimate son. However, Empress Dowager Ren'an did not support her own son to ascend to the throne.From this point of view, what bargaining chips do the two of them have?

But King Yan's status is different, and his biological mother's merit of following the dragon is definitely the first!Therefore, she was still respected as the Queen Mother by Emperor Qiyuan.On the day of his accession to the throne, Prince Gong took Prince Yan to Prince Yu's Mansion to support Prince Yu in public. This support was not small!Based on these two points, there is no doubt about King Yan’s noble status!

On the day he ascended the throne, Prince Rui and Prince Qing also wanted to go, but when they received the news that Prince Yan had also gone, and when they hurriedly dressed in court clothes and rushed there, the dragon chariot carrying Prince Yu was already entering the palace. On the way!Alas... I have missed this success all my life.

As for Princess Jing, she has two backers, Queen Mother Ren'an and King Yan, so there is no doubt about her noble status!
Murong Xuan, on the other hand, received the news from the Imperial Capital earlier than many people in the north, but it was still too late!What's more, I never thought that in just five days, I would become the deposed emperor!
