The speaker is Yang Hong!
As for Yuan Bin, all the ministers in the imperial court knew his name, but very few of them had actually seen him.
After all, before the Battle of Tumu, Yuan Bin was just a small imperial guard, and was not even qualified to step into the Fengtian Palace.
Of course, the bosses won’t pay attention to it either.
After the Battle of Tumu, Yuan Bin and Ha Ming, as the only remaining retainers around the Supreme Emperor, naturally appeared frequently in various military reports.
Especially Yuan Bin, he almost became the spokesperson of the Emperor, from the news that the Emperor was trapped in the prison camp, to shouting at the gate of Xuanfu City, to the secret plan with Guo Deng at the gate of Datong to rescue the Emperor, but to no avail.
It can be said that the name Yuan Bin has long been known to the courtiers.
However, he has always followed the Supreme Emperor in Yibei, so he really doesn't know many people.
The ministers in Fengtian Temple today have to know Yuan Bin.
Except for the three members of the envoy kneeling in front, they were the Marquis of Changping, Yang Hong, who once guarded Xuanfu.
This sound is not loud, but the impact it brings is explosive.
The military officials were the first to start a commotion, and there was a lot of discussion. The faces of Zhang Shi and Jiao Jing became even more ugly.
Especially Jiao Jing, he felt in a terrible mood.
From the moment Yang Hong called out this name, Jiao Jing understood that all their previous speculations about the emperor were wrong.
Anything that wants to create a good reputation and anything that wants to kill Zhang Fu are both wrong.
The reason why the emperor has not made it public or convicted the case of the envoy is not because he cannot investigate clearly, but on the contrary, it is because the emperor has long been confident.
He has been delaying time just to wait for Yuan Bin, the most critical witness!
Following Yang Hong's words, the three envoys kneeling in the hall couldn't help but raise their heads and turn around to look.
When they saw Yuan Bin's face, the expressions of the three of them were different.
Xiao Weizhen looked defeated and his body was trembling. On the other hand, Xu Bin was overjoyed and immediately turned his gaze to Zhang Fu beside him.
Obviously, Xu Bin felt that Yuan Bin's arrival was also arranged by Zhang Fu.
However, what surprised him was that when facing Yuan Bin, Zhang Fu's expression was not relaxed at all, but rather a little confused.
The commotion on the military side naturally attracted the attention of the civil servants.
No one among them knew Yuan Bin.
However, the Mongolian nobleman just now claimed to be the Wala envoy, and Yuan Bin came with him, wearing the robe of a royal guard.
Soon, someone guessed his identity.
Therefore, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhu Jian and the other two people who were still saluting.
At this time, the emperor also spoke, saying:
"Governor Zhu has worked hard all the way. The matter is so important that I have to ask you to go to the palace as soon as you enter the city. But judging from the appearance of the Qing family, the things I assigned you should have been completed, right?"
Zhu Jian was a little unclear about the situation at this moment.
Previously, when Guo Deng received the military order and led the army to ambush Ye Xian, Zhu Jian also received a secret edict at the same time.
It was said inside that once the battle was defeated first, Wala would definitely be weak. At this time, it was a good time to negotiate with the other party and welcome back the Supreme Emperor, so the emperor ordered him to send an envoy to Wala again to test his attitude.
If there is sincere peace talk first, then you can bring the Wala envoy to Beijing, but in order to make sure that the Supreme Emperor is safe and sound, you need to have the Supreme Emperor's personal companion Yuan Bin return to Beijing together.
It should be said that this edict was very risky for Zhu Jian.
He was familiar with military affairs and civil affairs. Of course he knew that under the successive defeats, it would be impossible to maintain a hostile relationship with the Ming Dynasty for a long time. It was inevitable to turn to peace talks.
However, no one knows where this node is.
Although he was not in the court, he also knew that after the battle of Zijingguan, many ministers in the court felt that they had no strength to fight anymore and would inevitably lean towards peace talks, so they sent envoys.
But the result was that they pretended to have peace talks on the surface, but actually secretly attacked Shawo in an attempt to start another border provocation.
This failure may be a very serious blow to Ye Xian, but no one can say whether he will really give up his attempt on the Ming Dynasty because of this.
Especially, as the Battle of Shawo has just ended and he lost his troops first, if he gets angry first, it is not impossible to kill him to vent his anger.
So, this is an adventure.
Zhu Jian had two choices at the time. One was to report back to the court and request the court to send a complete envoy on the grounds that he was alone and lacked etiquette.
But this is actually considered a polite refusal.
The secret edict in his hand was obviously an imperial edict, that is to say, it was an edict issued by the emperor without going through court deliberation.
When he sends the memorial back to the court, it must go through the General Affairs Department and the cabinet, so the courtiers will naturally arrange the matter properly.
Either postponement or substitution.
Of course, there is a high probability that it will be postponed.
After all, from the perspective of the imperial court, it is really inappropriate to send out another wave of envoys just after they were sent out, when the war has just ended.
However, Zhu Jian was unwilling to do this.
From the bottom of his heart, he hopes that the Supreme Emperor can return to the court as soon as possible. In his opinion, the Supreme Emperor is the orthodox one. If he does not return to the court, the country will be unstable.
Therefore, even if he took the risk, he still chose the second path, which was to follow the order and go straight to Wala alone.
This is also a gamble. He is betting that he can first secure his position as Grand Master of Wala. He is not a person who will be carried away by emotions.
As the admiral of Datong, although Zhu Jian could not directly intervene in military affairs, he still knew the basic military situation.
Wala's current situation is not good. The defeat at Zijingguan has caused him to lose his most powerful position among the various Mongolian tribes.
After a severe cold, many herdsmen at the bottom died of cold and starvation, which directly affected the replenishment of Yexian's troops.
Coupled with the failure of the Battle of Shawo and the two consecutive losses, if you are a clear-headed person first, you should show true sincerity and negotiate peace with the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, the more important point is that Zhu Jian saw the sincerity of the emperor in this secret edict.
This time, the emperor did not just ask him to welcome back the emperor, but gave him sufficient conditions.
That is, as long as he agrees to return the emperor, the Ming Dynasty can ignore the past grievances, re-accept the various tribes of Oara as vassals, and restore the system of tribute and rewards.
This is actually a huge concession.
Zhu Jian knew in his heart that the emperor could not offer a more favorable condition than this.
Even if the edict is not issued directly by the emperor, but through court discussions, then a considerable number of radical ministers headed by a certain official minister may not be willing to agree to even these relatively mild compromises.
So he could not submit a memorial to make the matter bigger, because in that case, sending an envoy would have to go through the court deliberation, and it was not certain whether these conditions could still pass the court deliberation.
He has no other choice!
