What is the biggest advantage of reviving your life?
There is nothing better than knowing clearly when something will happen.
Although some things have changed due to his foresight, in general, many things are still consistent with Zhu Qiyu's memory.
For example, the time when this Dao army reported to Beijing...
In his previous life, he did not summon ministers to discuss matters in Jiyi Hall today, nor did the palace gates remain closed all night.
Although this military report is urgent, it is far from the point where we need to knock on the door late at night.
But now, Zhu Qiyu ordered Jin Ying to open the palace door before entering the palace, to instructing Yu Qian in advance to send any military reports directly to the palace, to allowing the courtiers to argue about this moment.
They are all waiting for this military report!
Zhu Qiyu sighed inwardly. This military report should be regarded as one of the few positive effects of his unsatisfactory brother in this battle.
Although in fact, the content is still embarrassing...
But after all, for Zhu Qiyu now, this military report is his trump card to persuade courtiers!
After waving his hand, Jin Ying on the side understood and ordered someone to open the palace door.
It was still raining sporadicly outside, and as soon as I opened the door, a gust of cold wind blew in.
A eunuch with a lewd eunuch walked in, followed by a military officer in armor.
The soldier was wearing armor and carrying a tight round bamboo tube sealed with oil paper. His body was covered with rainwater.
It was obviously the messenger who had just arrived from outside the city.
After entering the palace, with the help of the chamberlain, the soldier took off the bamboo tube on his back and handed the general's report to Yu Qian's hand with his own hands, before being taken down by the chamberlain to change clothes and rest.
Because the military report had just been called outside, Yu Qian did not delay.
In front of the ministers, Yu Qian broke open the oil paper on the outside of the bamboo tube and carefully inspected the paint seal on it. Then he took out a tightly wrapped military report from inside.
He didn't open it to read, but directly handed it to King Tan who was above him.
When Zhu Qiyu opened it and took a look, he was half relieved. He handed the general newspaper to Jin Ying beside him and motioned for him to read it out.
"I am guarding Datong with the chief military officer Guang Ningbo Liu An, the commander-in-chief Tongzhi Guo Deng, and the commander-in-chief Qian Shifang Shan.
Commander-in-Chief Zhang Tong and others reported to the imperial court."
"At Yin time on the 19th day of this month, the Wala army arrived at Datong and was stationed twenty miles away from the north of the city. At early noon, Yuan Bin, the captain of the Jinyi Guards School, came from the Wala camp with an imperial order and claimed that our emperor was five miles away.
Summon Liu An, Bo Liu An, who is guarding Datong Guangning."
Just after reading a few sentences, the hearts of the ministers were lifted again.
It’s really a wave of ups and downs.
Things in Xuanfu here are not over yet, something happened in Datong again!
Counting the days, they captured the emperor in Xuan Mansion on the 17th and arrived at Datong on the 19th. It seemed that they had planned it in advance. After all, the army would not reach Datong within two days of setting off.
But these are all things for later.
When he was in Xuanfu, bandits held the emperor hostage and ordered the general to open the city gate, but the general refused.
This time it seems that he has learned a lesson. Instead of talking about opening the city gate, he asked the general to come out to greet him. But I don’t know how the general of Datong will respond?
Jin Ying continued to read.
"Due to the previous civil war report, which had been sent to all the border towns, after the generals discussed it, Liu An led ten elite soldiers to meet the emperor five miles away. At that time, Yan Timur, the leader of the captives, learned that he had led hundreds of elite soldiers.
Leave the others aside."
"After entering the meeting, I ordered Guo Deng to lead the officials in the city to come out. After a while, Guo Deng led the officials to come out. After saluting, the officials cried and asked: The Sixth Army is returning eastward. Who expected it to be here? The previous chapter said:
I will be arrogant and lazy, and I have been misunderstood by my ministers, so why bother asking again."
"The emperor asked again how much money and goods were in the Datong treasury. Guo Deng answered truthfully, saying that there were 120,000 taels of silver. So the emperor ordered that 22,000 taels be taken, and 5,000 be given to him first, and 5,000 to Boyan Timur and others.
There are three of them, and the rest are scattered among the captive soldiers, and Guangning Bo and Liu An follow them."
The faces of all the ministers looked a little ugly.
I really heard the emperor say... I will be arrogant and lazy, I have been misunderstood by the ministers..., the courtiers still felt a little uncomfortable.
They themselves say it is one thing, but it is to maintain the dignity of the king and to keep it taboo.
But what is the actual situation? Your Majesty, don’t you have any idea in your mind?
Before setting off for the expedition, many ministers wrote lengthy letters on the ground admonishing you, telling you not to go, and that you must go to the expedition yourself.
Just go and let Wang Zhen do whatever he wants without listening to anyone.
As a result, now that I have done this to myself, I blame the generals for being arrogant and lazy...
Forget it, forget it, the emperor can't lose face... The ministers could only advise themselves in this way.
But that feeling of eating a fly never goes away.
What's more, this time, it's not as simple as saying two sentences.
With a wave of his hand, the emperor gave him twenty-two thousand taels, which was one-sixth of Datong's armaments and silver taels!
Especially Chen Yi from the household department, the corner of his mouth twitched with distress.
I guess he's already yelling at Liu An by now.
I don’t feel bad for selling my field!
Everyone in the government and the public knows who this Liu An is.
He was originally an honorary relative who accompanied the army on the expedition, but when the army arrived in Datong, he suddenly fell seriously ill. I don't know the exact extent of it, but he was definitely not able to continue with the army on the expedition.
There was no other way, the emperor could only send him to stay in Datong and guard Datong together with the guard general Guo Deng.
As soon as the army moved out, Uncle Liu suddenly became lively and energetic again.
It was good for him, he just stayed in Datong for a while and then left. But with such a wave of his hand and giving out more than 20,000 taels of silver, the household department would definitely take over in the end.
Where can he, Shen Yi, mend this hole?
You talk about this guy, can't you learn from Yang Hong, the general of the Xuanfu, and not be in the city when he goes out on patrol...
As soon as I went out, more than 20,000 taels of silver were gone!
However, this was not over yet. Next, Master Shen heard Jin Ying continue to read.
"After Liu An dispersed the money, the emperor again ordered Liu An to take the military Jinbo Zhu Mian, the Marquis of Xining Song Ying, the internal official Guo Jing's family members, and three people with python dragon robes. He also gave them clothes, colorful silks and other gifts from each guard.
"In accordance with the order, Guo Deng and others sent the python clothes, wealth and silk to the prison camp, and set up a banquet three miles away to entertain the people."
This time, Master Shen was not the only one who was unhappy, the faces of all the officials present turned green.
This thief has gone too far!
Not only did he coerce the emperor, but he also had to be brought here to show off his power.
It's just a matter of showing off one's strength, but they are also required to entertain them with clothes, wine and food.
This is no longer a slap in the face, but after the slap, he steps on the ground and jumps repeatedly, back and forth!
Many ministers were so angry that their faces turned red.
At the same time, they couldn't help but feel some resentment towards the emperor.
Forget about anything else...
Wu Jin Bo Zhu Mian and Xining Marquis Song Ying, these two died fighting for their country.
And unlike the group of people who died in Tumubao for unknown reasons, they died two months before the battle began.
When the bandits attacked Yangguan in Datong, he died fighting to defend the city.
No matter from which perspective, he was a meritorious official of the imperial court.
Now that the corpses were still cold, the emperor used their wealth to entertain the Wala army that killed them.
How can we not make people feel uncomfortable by doing this?
For a moment, all the ministers felt a sense of sadness that the rabbit had died and the fox had died.
Even the several Hanlin officials standing behind Gao Gu and Chen Xun looked a little unnatural.
Feeling the gloomy atmosphere spreading vaguely in the hall, both Gao Gu and Chen Xun's hearts sank.
The two looked at each other and saw the frustration in each other's eyes.
It is said that if a king treats his ministers like his hands and feet, then his ministers will regard him as his heart and soul; if a king regards his ministers as grass and mustard, then his ministers will regard him as a bandit.
Didn't the emperor consider the impact that the emperor's behavior would have if it was reported back to the court?
Those are real heroes who died loyally for the imperial court!
Once this news spreads, I am afraid that no matter how determined the ministers are in rescuing the emperor, they will inevitably feel a little shaken in their hearts, not to mention other people...
If everyone was persuaded by Yu Qian just now, then at this time, I am afraid that the ministers have really put the safety of the capital before the safety of the emperor.
Not to mention anyone else, even the two of them felt chilled at this moment.
This is really...
well……
The two elders let out a long sigh.
However, the military report was not over yet, Jin Ying's steady voice continued...
This chapter has been completed!
