Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 131 Civil and military officer Qi expresses his position, refuses to reset, refuses to threa

Chapter 131

In terms of treating envoys, both Daming and Wala are very ethical.

Since the start of the war for more than two months, there has never been any harm to the other party's envoy.

So even though Naha went straight to the bank of the moat, looking domineering and arrogant, no one attacked him from the top of the city.

After Naha went out to show off his power, he saw that there was no response, so he felt bored, so he shouted to the city: "People at the top of the city, listen, the emperor of tomorrow has arrived outside the city, please hurry out of the city to welcome the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs." .”

The civil and military officials, vassal kings, and nobles on the top of the city saw that they were facing sensitive topics, so they didn't dare to make decisions on their own. They all walked to Zhu Qiyu's side spontaneously, and stood in order like they were attending a court meeting, waiting for the new arrival. You speak.

Zhu Qiyu was not in a hurry, and first asked King Ninghua with a smile: "Uncle, I want to take all the civil and military officials out of the city to welcome the emperor back, so that my task will be completed, and I can continue to go home freely, you What do you think?"

King Ninghua definitely couldn't agree to this. He wrote a letter requesting to take his six sons to Beijing to kill the enemy. His original intention was to find a future for his children and grandchildren, not to make the emperor bad.So you have to wait and see first, and wait for the situation to become clear before standing in line.

So King Ninghua talked about the scene: "Nowadays, the Oala army is suppressing the country, and the state affairs are all up to His Majesty to preside over it. How can you personally take risks. In my opinion, let the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple go to negotiate."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and then asked King Jin, "What about Uncle Jin?"

King Jin was more radical, and replied clearly: "I think that the emperor is already too emperor, and we should not be held hostage by Oirats too much. Let's fight first, and it will not be too late to negotiate after the Oirats' army is frustrated."

Zhu Qiyu nodded approvingly.

Now that the attitude of the vassal kings present has changed, Zhu Qiyu continued to ask the consort Jiao Jing, the Duke of England Zhang Zhong, the Duke of Cheng Zhu Yi, the Duke of Ding Xu Yongning, the Marquis of Xing'an Xu Heng, the Marquis of Xining Song Jie and other dignitaries.

Since Zhu Qiyu had advocated that Zhang Fu's son Zhang Zhong should inherit the British dukedom, Zhang Zhong clearly expressed his support for the new monarch.

But Jiao Jing, the captain-in-law, was punished by Zhu Qizhen in the eighth year of Zhengtong for committing a crime and kneeling at the right gate of Chang'an to show the public.The right gate of Chang'an is the only way for ministers to go to court, and this humiliation is not insignificant.So Jiao Jing was not very enthusiastic about rescuing Zhu Qizhen.

Among the princes present, except Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi, most of the others reacted calmly when they went out of the city to meet Zhu Qizhen.

The rest are civil servants and generals.Because the generals are directly in charge of the soldiers, their positions are very sensitive, so they just sit aside and don't speak.

Zhu Qiyu asked the civil servants: "Old Chen Ge, Yu Aiqing, tell me, what should we do?"

Both Chen Xun and Yu Qian agreed with the opinions of King Ninghua and King Jin, and first asked the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple to be in charge of the negotiation, and if they couldn't reach an agreement, they would start a fight.In any case, this war is unavoidable.

Zhu Qiyu saw that no one objected, so he asked Hu Wei: "Uncle Da Zong, would you like to go to the Wara camp in person? Among the five former emperors who supported Gu, the king of Dingxing County and the three who made Wala sit big are gone. You are the only one alive now.

Don't you have to go there in person to plead guilty to the Supreme Emperor face to face, which is also an confession to the late emperor. "

When Hu Wei heard this, his old face flushed red, but he was speechless.The emperor's cynicism was a bit merciless, but there was nothing wrong with what the emperor said, and people couldn't find a reason to refute it.

Before Xuanzong died, he left five Tuogu ministers to Zhu Qizhen: Zhang Fu, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Yang Pu, and Hu Wei.

The first emperor trusted you very much and entrusted the young master Zhu Qizhen to you. As a result, you assisted Zhu Qizhen like this. At least one crime of dereliction of duty will not escape anyway.

No matter how thick-skinned Hu Yan was, he was too embarrassed to insist that he was not guilty.

Zhu Qiyu ordered: "Since Uncle Da Zong has no objection, then you can take Chen Yi, Li Xian, and Li Shi to the Wara Camp to meet the Supreme Emperor.

By the way, tell Yexian to retreat thirty li.Then send twenty soldiers, not wearing armor and carrying weapons, to drive the emperor's chariot fifteen miles away from the city.

And we also sent twenty soldiers, none of them wearing armor or weapons, to meet the Supreme Emperor fifteen miles outside the city.

This can effectively prevent both sides from cheating. When the Supreme Emperor is welcomed back, the court will reward him heavily first, so that he doesn't have to worry about making a trip in vain. "

Hu Wei had no choice but to agree.The new king also sent three ministers to go together, and now Hu Yan had no room to fool around, so he had to kowtow to Zhu Qizhen to plead guilty.

Zhu Qiyu had seen the real face of the Wala army, and also understood the attitude of the civil and military officials, so he got up and went back to the mansion.

Ministers of civil and military affairs, those who should go out of the city, those who should go back home, and those who should go to the barracks, all dispersed.

From the beginning to the end, no one stood up and called for the new emperor to return to the throne, and no one proposed to restore the Supreme Emperor.

Even Zhu Qiyu himself couldn't help sighing in his heart the power of the general trend.Even if most people still agree with Zhu Qizhen in their hearts, under the pressure of the general situation, no one can speak their minds.

The grievance and torment these courtiers loyal to Zhu Qizhen have suffered in their hearts is really distressing.

Zhu Qiyu brought He Yi, Huang Pu, and Lian Gang back to the mansion, and immediately ordered: "You urge the painter to speed up the progress, and tomorrow I will draw dozens of pictures of the emperor's door, and then preach in various parts of the capital. exhibit.

It is necessary to highlight the majesty and aura of the gate of Zijingguan, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so that the people in the capital can pay their respects. "

Lian Gang quickly agreed, and immediately resigned, and went to supervise the painter.

Zhu Qiyu asked He Yi again: "Xingyi, did I forget something just now, I always feel like something is almost there?"

He Yi laughed and said: "Yesian's younger sister Zhencairen and Boyan Timur's daughter Jingcairen, since they have arrived in the capital, they should enter the palace and kowtow to the Holy Empress Dowager. Otherwise, it would be too impolite It will only make the world underestimate Wala."

Zhu Qiyu also smiled and said: "Yes, yes, this task should be handed over to Uncle Da Zong just now. Why didn't you remind me on the spot?"

He Yi smiled wryly and said: "Hey, Da Zongbo was so embarrassed at that time, and I didn't want to add insult to injury too much."

Huang Pu also smiled and said: "It's better to let the ministers go. The envoys who have been there before are sent to the camp first, and now they are all sent there. Only the humble ministers do not go, I am afraid it is not appropriate."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and then ordered: "Don't leave tonight, let's drink and chat in the West Flower Hall while waiting for the news of the night attack by the guards.

It's been so boring lately, it's meaningless to wait, why don't I call my concubines together, let's have a lively game of gambling.

Just guess how many heads can be chopped off by the guards on the first night of the night attack.Let the princess sit in the dealership, let's make a bet, and the winner will invite everyone to eat at Jietianlou.What do you think? "

"good!"

Just guessing, He Yi and Huang Pu's competitive spirit was also aroused, and they agreed with one voice, determined to win a good fortune.
