Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 437 Gong Rang Goes Crazy, Poisons and Hopeless

Zhu Qiyu added: "Actually, I have been anxious for a long time. Once the Queen Mother is killed, I will immediately start rebuilding Dongshengwei with all my strength.

Dongshengwei can not only protect Datong, but also protect the east side of Hetao; Su Wang can not only protect the Hexi Corridor, but also protect the west side of Hetao.

After protecting the Hetao, I will relocate the people and fully develop the Hetao.

Whether it should be said or not, give up Dong Shengwei's blame, this time it really can't be all blamed on Xuanzong's head.It is Emperor Taizong who should be mainly responsible for this.

After Taizong succeeded in Jingnan, he was too suspicious of the frontier army, especially when Dongshengwei was moved inland, and he refused to return to life or death.

After that, Ren, Xuan, and Zhengtong also began to persistently raise the bar. They knew the importance of Dongshengwei, but they refused to restore Dongshengwei despite the requests of civil servants and generals.

In the end, the orthodox emperor sought benevolence and obtained benevolence, and successfully realized the Northern Hunting in Wala.

If Dongshengwei was still there, it would have been impossible to quietly lead the main force of the cavalry to sneak into Datong and set up an ambush.So elder brother respectfully let the emperor come to this day, he deserved it, no wonder others. "

Lin Xiangyu nodded as if she had realized something: "This is the hidden danger left by Taizong's rise of troops and Jingnan. Taizong and the three subsequent emperors were too suspicious of the vassal king and the frontier army, so they would rather give up control of the frontier than Weaken the frontier army."

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "That's true. The four borders of the Ming Dynasty are all a mess, and there is no good place. I have to wipe their asses for my 20 years in power, so can you blame me for cursing Xuanzong? I don't want to scold them, but They have to do some personnel work more or less.

I can't think about it first, leading tens of thousands of cavalry, and ran to Datong in a blink of an eye, unimpeded and silent, just like visiting the mountains and rivers.Who caused this? Is there anything wrong with calling those bastards?

All right, send the decree quickly. "

……

In the afternoon, Chen Xiang took the memorial and returned to Nangong to report to Zhu Qizhen.

Seeing that the recall of Mao Zhong was approved, Zhu Qizhen was greatly surprised: "Didn't my brother know that Mao Zhong was single-handedly picked up by me? He actually approved it!
Could it be that his younger brother is really too sick to get up, and his favorite concubines are handling government affairs for him?Otherwise, it shouldn't be so strange.

Then turn around and order the minister to play, suggesting that Shi Heng, Sun Tong, and Liu Yongcheng be recalled to the capital to see how the younger brother reacts. "

Chen Xiang took the order, and handed over the emperor's edict on Yang Shiqi's treatment, Zhu Qizhen read it, and praised repeatedly: "You deserve it, you deserve it, Yang Shiqi's grave should be dug open.

If it wasn't for Yang Shiqi, would I be where I am today?It's hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart even if I smashed him to ashes, but digging up the grave and burying him is really too cheap for him. "

Chen Xiang boldly replied: "Separate him from the one he loves the most, but bury him with the original spouse he despises. Lovers cannot share the same acupuncture point after death. If there is knowledge under the spring, that is the greatest pain."

Zhu Qizhen nodded: "That's true, but my brother is ruthless enough. I only killed Yang Shiqi's son. Compared with my brother, he is still too gentle.

When I was in power, I had too many scruples. If my younger brother was so vicious and powerful, how could I have come to where I am today. "

After finishing speaking, Zhu Qizhen shook his head again: "Looking at this edict, it is obviously written by my younger brother. Then is he sick or not?
Is there really no way to install eyeliner and spy on my brother's bedroom? "

Chen Xiang shook his head resolutely: "There is really no way, the emperor built a city wall with great effort to surround the entire Yuquan Mountain.

Although the emperor called it the Lingyu Palace, it was not a palace wall, but a city wall that was built.

The city wall is about two feet high and ten miles in circumference, with only two gates in the east and south.There are one hundred personal guards on duty at each gate, and three hundred personal guards patrolling along the city wall.

Except for the emperor himself and fifteen concubines, no one is allowed to enter.Even Concubine Wu never entered, let alone others.

In the past, there were still two little girls who could pass messages in and out, but now they are also stopped by the emperor.

The guards at the gate of the palace are specially authorized by the emperor. Anyone who breaks into the palace without authorization will be killed first and then played.

So there is really no way, unless a large army is sent to attack, otherwise it is really impossible to get in. "

Zhu Qizhen shook his head in confusion: "Isn't it great that the Forbidden City is magnificent? Why does my brother have to live in the suburbs? I don't believe that the western suburbs are safer than the Forbidden City? Can it be more comfortable to live in than the Forbidden City?
Besides, there is Xiyuan to the west of the Forbidden City, which is even more beautifully built, and it is no worse than Yuquan Mountain.I don't understand, I really don't understand. "

Chen Xiang smiled and said: "Maybe it's because the emperor has never lived in the palace since he was a child. The slaves heard from Gao Ping that the queen mother often regretted it, saying that the emperor was thrown out of the palace when he was a child and raised a wild child, that's why he didn't know each other. To the beauty of the Forbidden City.

If she had known this earlier, the Empress Dowager would have brought the emperor into the palace to influence her. "

Zhu Qizhen sighed helplessly, his mother and queen were petty, his original wife was petty, and his prince's biological mother was also petty.

The whole family is petty.

His own mother and queen were jealous, so jealous that the concubines in the palace could not give birth to a child, and had to force the father to give birth outside the palace.

Empress Qian is not jealous anymore, but she doesn't have half the talent of a housekeeper.

A first-in-law wife with absolutely no disputes, who was in charge of the housekeeper, was directly blinded and crippled by the servants.This butler ability is simply the best of the best.

There is also Queen Zhou, who has the ability to be a housekeeper, but she has returned to the path of jealousy.

The more Zhu Qizhen thought about it, the angrier he became, and he asked Chen Xiang angrily: "My brother has fifteen favorite concubines, and I heard that these favorite concubines didn't have a clear distinction between elder and younger, don't they fight among themselves?" ?
Their backgrounds are much worse than the queen mother and the two queens, aren't they petty?
Why have I never heard of a fire in my brother's backyard? I am not convinced.

There were twelve favorite concubines in his place who were pregnant one after another, and none of them were drugged and aborted? "

Chen Xiang didn't dare to hurt his emperor's feelings too much, so he had to reply weakly: "There are rumors in the market that the emperor invented a word called 'harem egalitarianism'.

That is, the status and treatment of all favorite concubines are exactly the same.The monthly money is 3000 taels, and the right to control the inner treasury of the palace is the same, as is the right to make decisions about common affairs.

What's more, what do you want to buy, what do you want?

The favored concubines are all princes when they give birth to sons, and princesses when they give birth to daughters.

So the emperor's favorite concubines felt that there was really nothing to fight about, and since they all grew up together and had deep feelings for each other, there would be no conflicts. "

Zhu Qizhen asked curiously: "What does the monthly money of 3000 taels mean?"

Chen Xiang replied: "It means that the emperor gives each favorite concubine 3000 taels of silver as private money every month, and the favorite concubines can control it at will."

Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen stroked his forehead with his hands: "It's really a crime, this month's money is many times higher than that of the empress, no wonder my brother's favorite concubines don't fight among themselves.

Every favorite concubine's life is as good as ten queens, so what's the point of fighting?

I just want to know, where did my brother get so much money? "

"Report to the emperor, this is the huge wealth obtained by the emperor from confiscating Wang Zhen, Jin Ying and other eunuchs."

"What a Zhu Qiyu, it's thanks to him to be generous with the generosity of others."

Thinking of his trusted eunuch's family property being squandered by his younger brother, Zhu Qizhen couldn't help feeling angry.

At the same time, Empress Dowager Sun has already smashed things in her palace.

Gao Ping, the director of the Yinghua Palace, as the eunuch who is in charge of ceremonies and holding pens, can always report the situation in time to the Queen Mother.

Regarding Yang Shiqi being ordered by the emperor to dig his grave and re-bury him with his first wife, Empress Dowager Sun's reaction was completely different from Zhu Qizhen's.

Empress Dowager Sun was so angry that she trembled all over.

Even a little brain can tell that the emperor is chasing Yang Shiqi on the surface, but in fact he is killing chickens for monkeys to see.

The implication is simple: the emperor threatened to move Empress Hu into Jingling and be buried with Xuanmiao.It is in accordance with the etiquette and law for the first couple to be buried together.

But the Empress Dowager Sun, who ascended to the throne of empress by killing her wife with her concubine, deprived her of the queen's title and resumed her status as a concubine, and she was not allowed to be buried with Xuanmiao after her death.

Emperor, this is no longer a hint, it is more accurate to call it an explicit statement.

This is the first time that Queen Mother Sun's mentality has collapsed since Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne.Because this time Zhu Qiyu was not joking, the imperial decree was issued today, and tomorrow it will be known to the government and the public, and the city will be full of storms.

The real plan is to see each other with a dagger, and the two sides will live and die, and there will be no turning back.

In Empress Dowager Sun's view, as long as Zhu Qiyu is in power, her status as Queen Xuanzong will definitely be deprived, and she will definitely not be buried in Jingling.

If you want to change your fate against the sky, you can only change the emperor.

If you can't solve the problem, then solve the emperor who caused the problem.
