Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 379 The Empress Dowager Was Angry
On the sixth day of April, the sky is bright and the air is clear, and the wind is smooth.

Zhu Qiyu covered her head and slept until dawn.Then he accompanied several concubines to soak in the hot spring pool, preparing to spend this wonderful day leisurely.

However, the good times didn't last long, halfway through the experience of turning the tongue, the little maid came to call for someone.

All the important ministers of the cabinet came again and spontaneously called a small court meeting.

Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to come to Qingyun Pavilion reluctantly, leaned on the soft couch on the third floor, and began to stare at the Longevity Mountain of Kunming Lake outside the window in a daze.

Chen Xun and the others were surprised to see the emperor being so lazy.

Most of the ruling and opposition parties believed that the emperor went to the western suburbs to show off, to avoid suspicion, and to show the world that he had no love for the throne.

But these important ministers who can often see the emperor have already seen it clearly: today's world is really not that obsessed with power.

Normally speaking, the vast majority of emperors who are in their early twenties and have just succeeded to the throne for two or three years would like to be with the ministers every day, commanding and commanding, in order to enjoy the pleasure of exercising the monarchy.

In the face of supreme power, most people can't restrain themselves, let alone the young emperor who is only in his early twenties.

But the Jingtai Emperor in front of him is really different. He moved to the western suburbs just half a year after he took the throne, and then started fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, which has continued until now.

This cannot be pretended by pretending, unless the current emperor is Wang Mang's second.

No, even Wang Mang himself was just pretending to be good before he became emperor.Once he has mastered the supreme imperial power, his true colors will soon be revealed.

The monarch and his subjects were silent for a while, and everyone accompanied the emperor to watch the scenery.

After waiting and watching for a long time, Zhu Qiyu withdrew his gaze and glanced at everyone present.

After this look, the problem was discovered. There were still four Ministers of the Ministry of War. Wang Ji, Yu Qian, and Xu Qi had not left Beijing yet, and they all came to attend the court meeting again.

After careful consideration, Zhu Qiyu figured it out, Gong made the emperor and the two princes look sick and dying, and several important officials were unwilling to leave Beijing at this time.

If the emperor dies just after walking on the front foot, then the fun will be great.

Important ministers like Wang Ji, Yu Qian, and Xu Qi could accept the current emperor's power, but they couldn't accept the emperor's sudden and unexplained death.

Even Chen Xun and others couldn't accept it for a while.It's not that these people feel sorry for the Emperor Gongrang, the key is that this big event came too fast, which made people a little caught off guard.

If you want to understand, you want to understand, but Zhu Qiyu doesn't want to make it clear that Wang Ji, Yu Qian and others will stay.Anyway, I'm not telling you to stay or to leave, you can do whatever you want.

Zhu Qiyu took a quiet look at Chen Xun, and Chen Xun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the condition of the emperor and the two princes has worsened again yesterday.

The empress dowager was furious and demanded that all the palace staff and guards in Nangong should be replaced.There are also imperial physicians, all of whom must be replaced.

How to deal with it is up to His Majesty to decide. "

Theoretically, the empress dowager has the power to replace palace servants.But when it comes to Jinyiwei and the imperial doctor, the court still has to make a decision.

Zhu Qiyu nodded to Chen Xun, then looked at Wang Ji, Yu Qian, and Xu Qi, and sighed quietly: "You all have sons and daughters, we are all fathers.

It is not easy to have a child, and it is even more difficult to raise it. "

After finishing speaking, Zhu Qiyu paused, and Wang Ji, Yu Qian, and Xu Qi looked at each other. These veteran officials instantly understood the meaning of the emperor's words, and converted them into vernacular words:

"Don't just look at Emperor Gong Rang's two princes who were seriously ill. I used to have sons and daughters when I was the king of Tan, but they were all killed by some traitors.So let me warn you first, don't think about giving me a lecture from the moral high ground.

The most shameless people in this world are those who have never experienced other people's pain, but somehow came to persuade others to be magnanimous.

You also have sons and daughters, which pissed me off. Let me teach you a lesson first, so as not to hurt your back when you stand and talk. '

Zhu Qiyu continued: "My queen mother, she can have children, but it's just bad luck, she gave birth to two older sisters for me.

Then he was troubled by treacherous officials, and the inner court and the outer court colluded with each other, and they were abolished for life.

The crime given by the treacherous ministers was 'childless and sick'.

Then I have doubts. My mother was 26 years old and had already given birth to two daughters. How could those treacherous officials be sure that my mother would not have a son in the future?

Later, when I ascended the throne, with a bowl of medicine and a fire, my one son and two daughters were gone.

At that time, I became childless, and I personally experienced the pain of my mother.

Now it's just that the two princes are seriously ill, and the empress dowager feels pain.Wasn't it painful for my mother to watch my sister, Princess Shunde, being murdered?
Yu Aiqing, when my mother was deposed, there was no me.I remember that Yu Aiqing was working as a censor in the Metropolitan Procuratorate at that time.

The censor is responsible for supervising all officials.Yu Aiqing has personally experienced the turmoil of the post-abolition back then, and is also the supervisory censor. Can you tell me who were the treacherous officials back then? "

After all, Zhu Qiyu saved face for Xuanzong, instead of scolding him directly, he put all the blame on the so-called 'treacherous officials'.

Hearing this, Yu Qian had an innocent face, full of bitterness, why did he come to the western suburbs for a long time.When Emperor Xuanzong was abolished, Chen Xun, Wang Ji, Zhou Chen and others had much higher official positions than me. If you don't question them, the emperor, what's the use of just asking me.

Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu just wanted to hit everyone, and didn't really intend to let Yu Qian answer, so he took a sip of tea and replied to Chen Xun:

"I have said so much, but I just want to say that I feel sorry for the parents of the world, and I feel the empress dowager's feelings.

How about this, all the palace people in Nangong neglected their duties and failed the grace of heaven, and Xing'an, the general manager of Nangong, was responsible for killing them all.

In addition, all the guards in Nangong were transferred away.

Xing'an is in charge of re-selecting the palace servants, and Ma Liang is in charge of re-selecting the guards.Then make a list and submit it to the Empress Dowager for approval.

As for the imperial physicians, the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites are responsible for re-electing a batch and submitting the list to the empress dowager for approval. "

When everyone heard the words, they were speechless.Anyone can see that the emperor is really angry today.

If you continue to provoke the emperor's Ni Lin, just wait and see.

Moreover, the emperor's disposition made people unable to say anything.

Xing'an is a confidant of Emperor Gongrang, and Ma Liang is also a confidant of Emperor Gongrang.Let Xing'an and Ma Liang take full responsibility for selecting candidates, and then report to the empress dowager for approval. If there is still a problem, you can't blame the emperor anymore.

As for the imperial doctor, it was chosen by the cabinet and then reported to the empress dowager for approval.If there is another problem, then the cabinet should be responsible, and the emperor can no longer be blamed.

Now Zhu Qiyu has given a clear attitude: in the future, Nangong can be self-governing, and the palace staff, guards, imperial doctors, and imperial cooks are all up to you to choose.

If there is a problem in the future, don't come to me again.

"Now go and say hello to my elder brother for me."

With the next sentence, Zhu Qiyu got up and went home directly.

Only the crowd was left staring at each other.
