Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 23 King Yi obtained the decree of the Queen Mother to formally supervise the country's regent and military affairs

The military report from the front has confirmed that the orthodox emperor has been captured, and the Emperor of Heaven has officially started hunting north.

For more than ten days, Empress Dowager Sun has been unwilling to eat, and has trouble sleeping at night.

Forget it, the key point is that the Empress Dowager Sun had to sit in the Hall of Benren every morning, listening to the ministers chattering, like listening to monks chanting scriptures.

Empress Dowager Sun had had enough long ago, so when she saw Hu Wei entering the palace, she hurriedly asked, "Uncle Dazong, where is King Yi, are you heading back to Beijing?"

Hu Yi hurriedly replied: "Report to the Queen Mother, the king has already set off, and it should take at most one day before he will arrive."

"Okay, okay, the cabinet quickly drafted an order, and appointed King Tan as the supervisor of the country. He will temporarily head all the officials and act as an agent for the military and state affairs."

Hu Wei said again with a troubled face: "Queen Mother, His Royal Highness King Yi has a copy of the book, and asked Wei Chen to present it to the Queen Mother."

After finishing speaking, Hu Yi presented King Ying's inscription with both hands, and Jin Ying quickly came to pick it up and handed it to the Queen Mother.

When the queen mother opened it, her expression changed immediately.

Regarding the title of King Ying, Empress Dowager Sun knew what was going on: Zhu Qiyu's biological mother, Concubine Wu Xian, was the palace servant of King Zhu Gaoxu of the Han Dynasty.

During the reign of Xuande, Concubine Wu Xian and Zhu Qiyu's mother and son were kept hidden outside the palace. It was not until Xuanzong became seriously ill that Zhu Qiyu's status as prince was officially recognized.

With such a dishonorable background, it would be strange if Zhu Qiyu could get a good title.

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Sun handed the title book to Chen Xun: "You guys pass it on for a look, and then express your own opinions."

So several important ministers present read Zhu Qiyu's inscription one by one, but after everyone read it, no one was willing to speak first.

Empress Dowager Sun had no choice but to call names: "Cifu, you speak first."

Chen Xun had no choice but to reply: "The old minister thinks that what His Royal Highness King Yi said is true. As His Majesty's only younger brother, the title of King Tan is indeed too shameful. When the king's title was agreed, the minister said , no matter how bad it is, at least he should be given a title like King Chen.

Since His Royal Highness King Tan himself proposed the title of Jin today, and King Tan is also responsible for the heavy duty of supervising the country, then it is all right to ask the Queen Mother to make things right, so that King Tan can be granted the title of King Qi by Jin. "

Without waiting for Empress Dowager Sun to respond, Wang Zhi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, retorted: "Please don't misuse the word Jinfeng, the second minister, King Qi and King Qi are both equal princes, so where did the theory of Jinfeng come from.

Now that His Majesty is hunting north, King Tan should have immediately assumed the important task of supervising the country and leading all the civil and military officials to rescue His Majesty.However, King Yi is now constantly evading and prevaricating, disregarding His Majesty's safety, how can he bring up the matter of changing the king's title. "

Empress Dowager Sun saw that the two were still arguing, so she had to ask Yu Qian again: "Mr. Yu, what do you think?"

Yu Qian replied: "I think that I should be invited by His Royal Highness King Tan."

Hearing this, Wang Zhi said angrily: "Yu Shilang, Your Majesty treats you well. If you don't want to rescue Your Majesty, you will follow suit anyway."

Yu Qian retorted: "Otsuka Zai said this, why should I follow suit, then you can tell me, which sentence in King Yi's test book is wrong, please point it out one by one, and we will discuss it together."

When Wang Zhi heard the words, he shut up and said nothing.King Yi is an inferior king, and everyone present knows this well, and if you open your eyes and talk nonsense, it will be boring.

Upon seeing this, Yu Qian added: "The king didn't make any excessive demands. The current plan is to let the king supervise the country as soon as possible. The rest of the things are trivial. Now we are arguing about these things here, misunderstanding If the military and the country are involved, who will bear the responsibility at that time."

The Empress Dowager Sun looked at Hu Yi again, and Hu Yan had no choice but to reply: "His Royal Highness King Yi also said that he went south to recuperate under the order of the Queen Mother. Now that he is returning to Beijing to supervise the country, he still needs a clear edict from the Queen Mother to appoint King Yun as the supervisor of the country. into the city.

According to the veteran minister, the Queen Mother first issued an edict ordering King Yi to supervise the country.As for the matter of entrusting Jin to the Jin Dynasty, it is okay to discuss it face to face after King Tan enters the city. "

The Empress Dowager Sun nodded when she heard the words: "Yes, according to Uncle Da Zong's words, the cabinet will immediately draw up an edict and appoint King Yi as the supervisor of the country. Uncle Da Zong will work harder and pass on the edict again."

The ministers heard the words and took orders.After a while, Hu Wei set off with the prepared edict.In the evening, he came to Wei Daying, Yingzhou, and delivered the decree.

Zhu Qiyu took Yizhi with a smile, and handed it to Lin Xiangyu who was beside him.

Hu Wei couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask Your Highness, how did you bring so many soldiers back to Beijing?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Old Shangshu doesn't know, I was helpless, and I was forced to work by Yu Shilang. Didn't Yu Shilang go to Zijingguan to inspect military affairs before, and when he passed by Baoding Mansion, he issued a document from the Ministry of War and ordered The capital of Daning raised troops to serve the king, and escorted Xiao Wang back to Beijing along the way.

Don't worry, Lao Shangshu, tomorrow I will assume the responsibility of supervising the country, leading this army to build fortifications, drill and prepare for war. "

Hu Wei sighed, knowing that the capital was in danger, and it was impossible to prevent Zhu Qiyu from getting involved in military power at this time.So he asked again: "May I ask who is the girl next to Your Highness?"

"This is the bitch."

Hearing this, Hu Wei thought that King Yan was finally caught by his senior official minister of rites, and hurriedly corrected him: "King Yan is wrong, according to the law of etiquette, a man can only call his wife a cheap wife.

Mere concubines and concubines, but Israeli servants cannot be called cheap. "

Seeing that Lin Xiangyu in front of him was too beautiful, Hu Yan instinctively thought that she was the new favorite concubine of King Tan.Unexpectedly, Zhu Qiyu laughed and said: "

As the old Shangshu said, Jiannei can only be called his wife.But please think about it carefully, old Shangshu, is there a possibility that the person next to me is my regular wife. "

Hu Wei replied with a firm face: "Your Highness, don't lie to the old minister. The old minister is not confused. Your wife is Wang Fei."

"Old Shangshu is wrong, your concubine Wang is the Zhengfei of the Prince of Qi, and the one in front of you is the Zhengfei of the Prince of Qi."

When Hu Yan heard this, his face was astonished, and he was too shocked to speak.It took a long time to hold back a sentence: "What is the meaning of this, Your Highness?"

Zhu Qiyu asked back: "You still have the nerve to ask what this means? How many people have you placed in the Prince's Mansion, do you have no idea in your own mind.

Since I was allowed to be the supervisor of the country, I no longer want the Palace of Prince Yi, and just return the whole thing to you. "

Hearing the words, Hu Wei was stunned for a long while, only bowed his hands, said that the humble minister would leave, then flicked his sleeves, turned and left.

Seeing this, Lin Xiangyu asked curiously: "Why is Your Highness so straightforward, isn't this tearing your face?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "This operation is called Liren Design, do you understand?"

"Stand up?"

"Yes, for example, if you usually behave gentle and simple, be kind to others, and don't fight or grab, then you will establish the persona of a good person. If you are usually brutal and domineering, and do all kinds of evil, then you will establish the persona of a wicked person.

As for me, when I take over the important task of supervising the country, I will set up a rude, barbaric and absurd character.

It can't be helped, you don't know that these ministers are all scumbags.The more you treat them with all your heart and soul, the more they will think you are weak and deceitful, a complete lack of heart. "

Lin Xiangyu nodded in praise after hearing the words: "Miao Miaomiao, I understand. Your Highness treats them roughly and lowers their expectations of His Highness.

In this way, when His Highness is in a better mood and treats them a little more pleasantly, they will be amazed by the mighty grace of the emperor.

In the words of the sages, this is called only a villain and a woman are difficult to raise. If they are close, they will not be inferior, and if they are far away, they will complain.

Kings, only moody and unpredictable, can subdue Xiaoxiao and make him feel awe. "
