Chapter 443: King Boyan

 In Wuying Hall, as Zhu Jian's words fell, there was a brief silence.

Although in the court situation, it has always been politically correct to welcome back the Emperor, and there are always a group of ministers jumping up and down shouting that they want to welcome back the Emperor as soon as possible.

However, when actually operating this matter, you need to be very careful.

After all, this involves the relationship between Daming and Wala, and may even be related to the security of the border.

You know, in the many previous negotiations, there have been many conspiracies and tricks. Extorting money and silk is a trivial matter, and sending it back to the emperor to ask for the opening of the city, or waiting for opportunities to rob, and spy on border intelligence, are big things.

.

Therefore, although the slogans were shouted loudly, at this time, each of these ministers was more cautious than the other.

And, more importantly, even now, the elders are somewhat unclear about the emperor's path.

Perhaps for middle- and low-level officials, this is not a problem at all.

In the imperial court, no matter what time or event, as long as the relationship between the Tian family was involved, the emperor's behavior was very consistent with the image of a filial piety, brotherhood and tolerance.

Regarding the matter of the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor has always spared no effort to welcome him back.

Therefore, ordinary ministers will not consider this at all.

But the ministers in this palace are all mature and have more inside information. Naturally, they are not as naive as those middle and low-ranking officials.

Therefore, really smart ministers have always been ambiguous on this matter, taking a firm stand but not stating practical methods.

But today's scene really made them a little unsure.

If the emperor has no intention of welcoming him back, or has no intention of welcoming him back in a short time, then let alone the emperor's sincere words above Tingju, just talking about the current battle, it doesn't seem like he will continue to delay it.

I wanted to test it out, but the Holy Queen Mother was nearby.

After hesitating for a moment, the old man's eyes began to wander around the hall.

Finally, they looked at Mr. Hu Hui, the Minister of Rites.

In this palace, he is the only one who is suitable to speak. He is old, neutral and has a sophisticated way of dealing with people.

Feeling the attention of everyone, Hu Hui thought for a moment and then said.

"According to Master Zhu, there is currently a shortage of supplies on the grassland and the morale of the army is disorganized. For Ye Xian, he has to either go south and fight again, but the price is that if he fails, Wala may be destroyed, or he can only sue for peace."

"From a logical point of view, as long as you don't lose your mind, you should know what to do. However, I have only one question. I would like to ask Mr. Zhu to clarify it."

"Judging from what Mr. Zhu just said, the negotiation between you and Ye Xian went relatively smoothly. The time you stayed in Wala was only four or five days. So, is it possible that the situations you saw in Wala camp were also

Let’s start by laying out doubts about the past?”

"After all, you are extremely cunning, and you are the envoy of the Ming Dynasty. If he wants to create an illusion to deceive you and make the Ming Dynasty relax his vigilance, it is possible."

Hearing this, Zhu Jian was also a little silent. After a moment, he spoke.

"I don't dare to deceive the eldest uncle. I also have doubts about this matter. However, I think I have been in the army for many years and I still have this discernment."

"Besides, when I went to negotiate with Ye Xian this time, King Bodu had privately approached the official and asked if Ming Dynasty really wanted to welcome the Supreme Emperor back, and also asked..."

Having said this, Zhu Jian seemed to be hesitant, glanced at the emperor, then gritted his teeth and said.

"I also asked whether the Supreme Emperor would be able to regain his rightful position if he returns to the court. If he is not able to regain his rightful position, how can his safety be ensured..."

As he spoke, Zhu Jian's voice also felt a little lacking in confidence.

There was some silence in the palace, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and look at the emperor.

On the other hand, Zhu Qiyu, sitting on the throne, asked with his face still calm.

"King Bodu is Yexian's younger brother, why would he look for you privately?"

Zhu Jian also felt the pressure, took a deep breath, and replied.

"Your Majesty, according to what King Bodu said, he has always been interested in the Ming Dynasty. After returning to Wala, he was ordered to take care of the Supreme Emperor. He felt more and more that the great Ming Dynasty was majestic and graceful, and could not be compared to Wala."

"So he has been persuading Ye Xian to return it to the emperor as soon as possible and make good friends with the Ming Dynasty. Not only him, but also many people in Oala still care about the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, he came to ask Yu Chen privately."

After saying that, Zhu Jian glanced at Yuan Bin and hesitated.

"Not only that, King Bodu also said that when Xu Bin and others arrived in Wala, he was willing to help. However, Xi Ning was by his side at that time and kept a close eye on the Supreme Emperor. He was also partial to Xi Ning because of King Bodu's special status.

, I didn’t dare to meet the envoy in private, so I could only relax the guard secretly and let... Yuan Bin take the opportunity to meet with the envoy to discuss countermeasures."

The elders looked at each other, somewhat dumbfounded.

Yes, this is really an unexpected surprise.

No wonder Yuan Bin was able to "pass on the edict" to the mission in private while under guard in Oala. It turned out that someone was secretly helping him.

Yuan Bin was also a little restless, but the emperor waved his hand and said.

"The matter of the envoy has been decided. There is no need to mention it again. Please tell me, how did you answer these questions from King Bodu?"

This time Zhu Jian did not hesitate and said.

"I replied at that time that your Majesty has repeatedly sent envoys here, and naturally he wants to welcome the Supreme Emperor back. However, the throne has been established and it is difficult to change it. After the Supreme Emperor returns to the court, he should continue to be the Supreme Emperor."

"As for the safety of the Supreme Emperor, I responded by saying that the Tian family has a close relationship. His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor have a deep brotherly relationship. The courtiers are wholeheartedly looking forward to the Supreme Emperor's return to the south, so there is no need to worry about it."

This answer was quite appropriate, but the emperor showed no expression and continued to ask.

"Then how did King Boyan react at that time?"

Zhu Jian hesitated for a moment, stood up and prostrated on the ground, saying.

"Your Majesty, forgive me. After what I said, King Boyan was very unhappy. He said that the Supreme Emperor was originally the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. After returning to the court, he became the Supreme Emperor. He also said that if the Ming Dynasty really wanted to welcome the Supreme Emperor back, he should be allowed to do so.

It is only right that the Supreme Emperor returns to the capital and takes up his throne."

Although these words came from Zhu Jianzhi's mouth, the ministers who heard these words felt a little uneasy.

At this moment, the emperor's calm expression seemed to have turned into the calm before the storm in their eyes.

Hu Hui immediately said: "You rude people, how can I allow foreigners to criticize my great throne? What's more, your Majesty's position was established by the Supreme Emperor. His name is just and right. All the wise kings in ancient times were like this. They did not understand the etiquette and taught themselves, and they spoke nonsense without permission.

It’s really hateful.”

Wang Wen even said directly: "Your Majesty, it seems from this that Wala has no sincerity in making peace. He dares to argue about the throne of heaven and alienate the heavenly family. This is really a heinous crime and a deceitful intention."

After hearing this, the elders who originally wanted to persuade him couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Tianguan opened his mouth, this was the result.

This old guy wanted to overturn the table immediately, march his army to the Wala camp, and massacre his clan.

So, the one who really doesn’t want peace talks is you, Lord Tianguan...
