Chapter seven hundred and seventy seventh: Aso's request
In the Wenhua Palace, the eyes of all the ministers were focused on Asu.
However, what surprised them was that Asu did not look overjoyed at receiving such a great "grace".
He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly fell to his knees and said:
"Your Majesty, I came to Beijing this time and heard that Bodu of the Oara tribe was ordered by Ye Xian to come to the Ming Dynasty. The Seven Guards of Guanxi and the Oara tribe have been at war for a long time. I have long heard that Bodu is a warrior of the Oara tribe. This opportunity is rare. I
I want to ask for help and have a try with Nabo."
After the words fell, there was a look of surprise below, and many ministers began to discuss in low voices.
None of them thought that for such a heavy promise from the emperor, Asu would make such a trivial request.
However, among the ministers, there were a few who immediately turned their attention to the Emperor. If anyone knew the inside story, they would find that these elders were the same ones who were arrested on the day the Emperor summoned the Wala envoy.
Summoned ministers.
Especially Yu Qian, his expression was very complicated.
He finally understood what the emperor meant when he said "be calm and don't be impatient" that day.
No wonder the emperor neither stopped Qimuge from staying in the palace nor sent back the Wala envoys, but allowed Bedu and others to succeed in their treacherous plot, but it turned out that they were waiting here!
The original reason for summoning Asu to Beijing was to stabilize the border.
The emperor insisted on punishing Ren Li for his crime, and he wanted to expose his crime clearly and clearly. However, the reaction of the Seven Guards of Kansai was hard to estimate, so he summoned Asu to the capital in advance.
Firstly, let him testify against Ren Li, and secondly, it can also reduce the impact of this matter on the Seven Guards of Kansai to a controllable range.
As long as Asu is in the capital, even if he overreacts, the court will have room to maneuver if he suppresses or appeases him.
Basically, the minister who knew what Ren Li had committed in the first place knew this in his heart.
However, they did not expect that Asu's visit to Beijing would have such an effect.
Although it was the Supreme Emperor's decision to leave the wooden grid in the palace, it undoubtedly sent a wrong signal to the outside world, that is, the Ming court was biased towards Wala in grassland affairs.
For Daming, this was essentially taking unnecessary risks.
The difficulty is that if the wooden grid remains in the palace, the court will have to find other ways to show its neutral attitude.
If you don't want to give Tuotuo more benefits to win over him, then rejecting Wala's request and driving his Muge out of the capital is the only way.
However, this is Yu Qian's thinking.
For the emperor, he can always find a third way.
For example, let's let Asu and Bodu face off!
The Seven Guards of Kansai and Oara have always had a confrontational relationship. There are also constant wars between the two. However, the difference is that against the Seven Guards of Kansai, they use a strategy of both fighting and pulling.
After taking control of Wala first, in addition to continuously backlogging the living space of the Seven Guards of Kansai and opening up the road to the Western Region, what he did more was to propose marriage to the Seven Guards of Kansai. To put it bluntly, he hoped that through marriage, he would slowly
Annex the Seven Guards of Kansai.
This is also the reason why the DPRK has always been wary of the Seven Guards of Kansai. Although Asu's attitude has always been very firm on this matter, there will be no peace before there is any peace.
It was enough to make the Ming court feel uneasy.
So in essence, the request made by Asu this time seems simple, but it is conceivable that there must be guidance from an expert behind it!
Although it was only Asu who made the request, the elders present, especially those who understood the border situation, immediately deduced the subsequent development.
If nothing else, this confrontation will definitely be bloody.
Asu is the leader of the Chijin Mongolian Guard, the most powerful of the Seven Guards in Kansai, and Bodu is the younger brother of Yexian. He is also in charge of the large tribe of Oara. Both of them have extraordinary identities.
But precisely because of this, one of the two of them will definitely lose, and the defeat will be disastrous!
Because only in this way will the Seven Guards of Kansai and Wala completely turn against each other, and the court will feel more at ease with the Seven Guards of Kansai.
Therefore, Asu's request seems simple, but in fact, it is the most appropriate.
As the Mongolian garrison deployed by the Ming Dynasty in the Western Regions, the Seven Guards of Guanxi are responsible for protecting the important towns in Gansu. This determines that they cannot move at will like other garrison posts. The origin of the Mongolian tribe also determines that the Ming Dynasty cannot change the dispatch.
own officers and soldiers.
From this point of view, although the emperor promised that Asu could make his own demands, it was obviously unrealistic to ask for inward relocation or to ask the Ming Dynasty to send troops for assistance.
At that time, it was obviously a good thing, but it made the emperor unable to come to power, which was not beautiful.
But right now, Asu wants nothing but a chance for a "fair competition". This is what a smart person would do.
With the matter of Qi Mu Ge, what Ming needs now is an opportunity to express his position.
So, what else can better express the Ming Dynasty's stance towards Wala than creating a conflict between Wala and the Seven Guards of Guanxi?
Moreover, what is even more clever is that this is just a competition, not a war between the two tribes. In the capital, everything is controllable, which is a God-given opportunity!
In the midst of their thoughts, several elders exchanged glances, and began to murmur in their hearts. Could it be that the emperor had already planned this scene...
As if he saw their thoughts, the emperor pondered for a moment, but he did not readily agree, but said.
"General Asu, I can agree to this matter, but Wala is here to pay tribute this time, and Bodu has been summoned by the Supreme Emperor in the past few days, so I can't force Bodu to compete with you."
"Let's do this. In a few days, the imperial court will have a spring hunting and martial arts performance. If you can convince Bodu, then I will allow you to compete in front of the envoys from all over the world!"
Well, just by listening to the first half of the sentence, all the ministers knew that there was a trap hidden in the emperor's words!
Of course, it is not for Asu, but for Bedu and the Supreme Emperor. What the emperor meant by this is actually that Bedu is now in the capital, and there are people behind it.
Therefore, although the emperor agreed, others may not agree. The implication is not the guide palace, but who does it refer to?
The ministers then understood in their hearts that this was the emperor's response to the emperor's disregard for the overall situation and his personal love for taking in the Mongolian woman.
You know, a few days ago, the Supreme Emperor wanted to keep the Mongolian woman, but the Emperor did not object openly, which saved the old man's face.
Now, the emperor has approved the competition between Asu and Bodu. If the Supreme Emperor objects, it will be clear that they are going to break up...
And the consequences of breaking up are obviously not good for the Supreme Emperor.
Therefore, this is the emperor's style. As long as he makes a move, there is no way to avoid it!
However, Ah Su obviously didn't know the joints involved, or in other words, even if he knew, he actually had no other choice, he patted his chest and said.
"Don't worry, your majesty. As long as your majesty allows it, I will go to Bodu in person and have a good discussion with him. If he refuses, I promise not to pester him!"
On the throne, a smile appeared on Zhu Qiyu's face, he held his hands and laughed.
"Okay, then I'll wait and see who is more brave than General Asu, the commander of the Chijin Guard, or Nabodu, the younger brother of Grand Master Wala!"
…………
Basically, everything that happens in the morning cannot be concealed.
Therefore, a group of old men had just left the court, and the news that Asu was going to challenge Bodu spread like the wind through all the yamen up and down the court.
There were even many people who rushed to the post station where the Wala mission was staying and waited to watch the excitement!
Bodu got the news on his way out of the palace.
Of course, this palace is Nangong. It should be said that what Zhu Qiyu said in the morning meeting was not random nonsense, but the truth.
In the past few days, Bodu has indeed been summoned by Zhu Qizhen from time to time.
On the one hand, Bodu himself knew that this visit to the capital might be the last time he would come to the capital in his life. Qi Muge was Ye Xian's sister and also his sister. Although he had no choice but to let her stay in Nangong, in the end
There is still a bit of brother-sister love.
On the other hand, during these days and in contact with Zhu Qizhen, Bodu also realized that the Emperor in front of him was no longer the Emperor in Yibei.
Now they are asking for help from Zhu Qizhen, so he has no control over many things...
The carriage stopped next to the alley, and Bodu opened the curtain and looked at the crowd outside the inn from a distance. He couldn't help but frown, and the entourage following him asked.
"Taiji, what should we do? Should we go back to the inn?"
Reason told Bodu that this competition cannot be accepted, because no matter they win or lose, all their previous efforts will be in vain.
At this time, the best choice is to go to Nangong immediately and seek the protection of the Supreme Emperor!
As long as the Supreme Emperor is willing to come forward, then, not to mention anything else, at least the fact that the Ming Dynasty is divided will be revealed in front of everyone.
In fact, for Bodu, he came to Ming Dynasty with only one mission, and that was to try to relieve the pressure on Oara.
The best way is of course for Ming Dynasty to send troops to assist, but it is impossible for Ming Dynasty to agree.
In this case, it was designed to keep his Muge by the Emperor's side. In this way, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars was instigated, giving Oala a chance to breathe.
However, this is not the only way.
In fact, Bodu also considered that if Qi Muge finally had no way to stay in the capital, then it would be a good idea to try to intensify the conflict between the Tomorrow family.
You know, Wala is not the only one on the grassland who is eyeing the Ming Dynasty.
Even though the relationship between Ming Dynasty and Tatar is very good now, once there is internal strife in Ming Dynasty, the Tatars will not believe it and can't afford to put any effort into it.
As long as they can get a chance to breathe, Bodu is confident that Wala can rise again!
Therefore, after only a slight hesitation, he gave the order.
"Turn around and go to Nangong..."
However, just before he finished speaking, there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance.
Smoke and dust rose up all over the sky, accompanied by bursts of exclamations. Bodu turned his head and looked around. He saw outside the inn, and at some point, a proud Mongolian team had appeared.
The leader was tall and strong, which immediately made Bodu frown.
This person is none other than Asu!
It came so fast, this was Bodu's first reaction. At this moment, he could still think calmly, but the scene that happened next almost made him rush out.
At this moment, Asu looked completely different from his submissive appearance in the palace. He had once again put on the clothes of a Mongolian nobleman, with a bright silver scimitar hanging from his waist.
Outside the door of the inn, he jumped off his horse neatly. Asu strode forward, ignoring the warnings of the two guards guarding the outside of the inn. When he came to the door of the inn, he flew up and kicked the inn.
on the door!
"boom"!
There was a loud noise, accompanied by thick dust rising, and the door was kicked open. At the same time, Asu's voice sounded.
"Bodu, get out of here and declare the battle!"
Under normal circumstances, the post station is guarded by the Five Cities Military and Horse Division. However, if a delegation is staying, then out of respect, the guarding matters of the inn station will be left to the mission itself.
For some reason, the Wala mission is currently short of manpower, and since this is the capital, Bodu feels that no one dares to cause trouble, so there are only two ordinary guards guarding the outside.
Seeing this situation, the two men immediately became furious, pulled out the knives in their hands and rushed towards Ah Su.
However, Ah Su was obviously well prepared. They had just taken a few steps forward when four tall and round Mongolian men rushed up behind Ah Su and punched the two guards in the face.
This punch obviously did not hold back, and the two guards were immediately beaten to death. Then, the Mongolian men unceremoniously kicked the two of them heavily in the stomach, directly knocking them out.
The people were kicked two to three feet away, and one of them hit the wall directly and fainted immediately.
Such a big scene naturally attracted the attention of people in the inn.
In fact, as soon as Asu kicked the door, people rushed out from the inn. However, it all happened too fast, and Asu came menacingly, bringing twenty or thirty people with him. Therefore, these people from the inn
Those who rushed out did not dare to rush upward.
As for Asu, after kicking the door, he made no other moves. He just stood there, waiting for someone who could make the decision to come out of the inn.
Not long after, a man dressed like an aristocrat finally walked out of the inn, Naha said, this time the "official envoy" of the Wala mission!
If there was no Bodu, he should have been in charge of all affairs of the mission. Now that Bodu is not here, he should naturally handle this emergency situation.
Naha walked out of the inn, looked at the mess in front of him, and the two guards who fell to the ground unconscious in the distance, his expression was extremely ugly. He raised his head, looked at Asu who was standing in front, taking a good rest, and said with a gloomy expression.
.
"Who did I know? It turned out to be the defeated generals of the Grand Masters, the Seven Guards of Kansai. Why, when General Asu arrived in the capital, did he forget that he was chased out by the Grand Masters and ran all over the city?"
Obviously, Asu came to the door today just to provoke.
Therefore, Naha Deya didn't mean to say anything soft at all, and he exposed Asu's shortcomings right from the start.
However, Ah Su had obviously expected this, so he didn't respond at all and just said it directly.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you scream in front of me? Come out and see me!"
