Chapter two hundred and ninety fourth: the vanguard

 Qianqing Palace.

After lunch, Zhu Qiyu took a nap and then began to deal with government affairs.

After a while, Cheng Jing walked in, holding a stack of memorials in his hand, followed by Shu Liang.

The two came to the palace and bowed together.

Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and asked the two of them to stand up. Then he set his eyes on Shu Liang and asked.

"How is the case going?"

Shu Liang replied: "As the emperor expected, Marquis Ningyang and others have secretly collected a lot of evidence these days, and even went to Wugang to bring back a witness from that year. Now that the case has been concluded, they are expected to go to court tomorrow morning. Then there will be a written record."

Zhu Qiyu nodded and continued to ask.

"What did King Zhennan say?"

Shu Liang said: "The king of Zhennan refused to admit it. He only admitted that he went to the banquet, but he said that he had never done anything to slander Renmiao and said that the poem was forged."

"However, according to the rules of the trial, as long as the evidence chain is complete, the case can be concluded even if the criminal refuses to confess."

"Therefore, although King Zhennan did not plead guilty, several elders, after deliberation, still determined that the poem was written by King Zhennan."

After hearing these words, Zhu Qiyu finally had an idea of ​​the situation in the courtroom.

After pondering for a moment, he asked again.

"How did you go about the things you were asked to arrange?"

Shu Liang said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have personally gone to see Prince Zhennan. He has made preparations. The people brought back from Wugang have been well settled and are waiting to go to court tomorrow."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, with a smile on his lips, and said with some emotion.

"This young man is quite courageous. No wonder my uncle, King Min, is so partial to him and always takes him with him to give him advice."

Seeing that the emperor's brows finally relaxed a bit, Shu Liang carefully smiled and said.

"Isn't it true? When I first met the Prince of Zhennan, I thought he was just a weak scholar, but I never thought that he could be so brave and brave. He is worthy of the royal blood."

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand but said nothing.

There are many outstanding people in the royal bloodline, but most of them are mediocre people. However, this Zhu Yinqi really impressed him.

But I don't know whether he can perform satisfactorily tomorrow.

Putting the matter aside for the time being, Zhu Qiyu turned to Cheng Jing who was aside, pointed to the memorial he had just brought in, and asked.

"Has there been any movement on the matter I asked you to pay attention to?"

Cheng Jing then stepped forward, took out about ten memorials from a pile of memorials, placed them in front of Zhu Qiyu, and said.

"Your Majesty, these memorials are all requests to send envoys to Oara for peace talks. Most of them are from the imperial censor, and the leader is Xiao Weizhen, the right deputy imperial envoy."

"In addition to Ke Dao Feng Xian, Jiang Wan, the Marquis of Dingxi, and Zhang Shi from the British Government also each submitted a copy, saying that the world is now at peace, and for the sake of the harmony of the Heavenly Family, the Emperor should be welcomed back as soon as possible, and it is not appropriate to continue to delay."

After listening to Cheng Jing's words, Zhu Qiyu casually opened these memorials, glanced at the contents, and couldn't help but have a sneer on his face.

Are you finally unable to hold it any longer?

The voice greeting the Supreme Emperor disappeared and appeared in the court, and basically never stopped.

From Kedao Yushi, to Liubu Langguan, and even some local officials, they all have their own copies.

Again, in today's court, it is politically correct to welcome back the Supreme Emperor.

As far as the country is concerned, the Supreme Emperor is also the king and father of the people in the world. If the king and father are held hostage by the enemy, it will always be an unstable factor for the country.

As far as the court was concerned, the Emperor was still in Yibei. Even if the Ming Dynasty defeated Oala, the impact of the civil war could not be completely eliminated.

As far as the royal family is concerned, the eldest brother is still suffering in Yibei, and as the youngest brother, how can the emperor live a stable life?

Therefore, no matter from which perspective, everyone in the world hopes to welcome back the Supreme Emperor.

The people of the world are all simple and kind-hearted. They believe that the superior king and father are wise and wise and have the world in mind. The tragic failure of the Tumu Revolution was all because Wang Zhen was in power and commanded indiscriminately.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has defeated Wala, it is natural to welcome the emperor's father back.

However, this is only the thought of many middle and low-level officials and ordinary people. Officials of third rank and above are very cautious about this matter.

They are not young people who have just started working as officials and are full of enthusiasm. They believe that etiquette is everything and that respect between brothers, friends and brothers is the norm.

At their level, they can naturally see the series of power shocks that will arise from the Emperor's return to the dynasty.

You know, the full name of the Supreme Emperor is the Supreme Emperor!

Since they are both emperors, it is natural that they also carry the Heavenly Constitution in their mouths, follow the laws in their words, and enact decrees in their orders.

According to the system, the edicts issued by the Supreme Emperor are also imperial decrees!

If the Supreme Emperor really returns to the court, it would be fine to stay in the palace and enjoy his old age, but what if he interferes in the affairs of the court?

Do you want to follow his orders or not? What if the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor have different opinions?

If the people below obey the Emperor's orders and disobey the Emperor's orders, is this considered disobedience?

A series of issues involve the most sensitive power struggles.

Therefore, although there have always been voices in the court wanting to welcome the Supreme Emperor back, among the senior officials, everyone has unanimously put the matter aside for the time being.

But this time it was different. The right deputy imperial envoy Xiao Weizhen, the Marquis of Dingxi Jiang Wan, and the commander Zhang Shi were all high-ranking officials of the third or even second or first rank.

They brought a large group of censors to perform, which was obviously an organized act, and if nothing unexpected happened, this was just a warm-up, the real highlight should be tomorrow morning.

It seems that the fish really took the bait!

After reading the memorials in his hand one by one, Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said.

"It seems that the case of King Zhennan has indeed given Zhang Fu a lot of confidence. Otherwise, he would not have let Zhang Fu take the lead!"

Cheng Jing also nodded and said: "Yes, there is also the Dingxi Marquis Mansion, which is also the backbone of the British Duke family. Recently, there have been many material discussions in the DPRK. It is said that the newly crowned Marquis is young and promising.

It’s such a heavy responsibility!”

With a sneer, Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed with a trace of ridicule.

Jiang Wan, Marquis of Dingxi, was the grandson of Jiang Gui, the first Marquis of Dingxi. Because his father, Jiang Yi, suffered from foot disease, after Jiang Gui died of illness, the court ordered Jiang Wan to directly inherit the title.

Of course, the help of the British government is indispensable.

This Jiang Wan has just turned 20 this year, and he is somewhat talented, but to say that he is young and promising is nonsense.

This person is impulsive, motivated, selfish, cunning, and fond of wine and sex. He is a playboy, that is to say, he is somewhat useful in military affairs.

It seems that the British government is not only planning to welcome back the Emperor, they also want to continue to regain the power of the original Five Army Commandery Palace.

According to the current public opinion between the government and the public, if we can really take advantage of this east wind to bring the Supreme Emperor back from Yibei, then the merits pioneered by Jiang Wan and Zhang Min will be reused by the court, and it will be logical for him to take over the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

A good calculation!

Shaking his head, Zhu Qiyu turned his gaze back to the memorial at his hand, his eyes deep.

These memorials were intended to stir up discussion among the government and the public, so they were not reported directly, but followed the normal procedure, first sent to the General Affairs Department, then to the Cabinet, and finally to the cabinet.

Now that the memorial has reached the cabinet, it naturally needs to be voted on.

In addition to the person who submitted the petition, the voting process on the cabinet side is also not simple...
