Zhu Yi is visiting?

After hearing the butler's report, Zhang Fu understood that things were not simple, otherwise it would have been so coincidental that Cao Jixiang had just left, and he arrived.

Although Zhu Yi is a junior, he has long won the recognition of old honors and relatives in the process of guarding the border over the years, which is in sharp contrast with some honors and relatives in the capital who only know how to eat, drink and have fun.

It is not just the former British Duke Zhang Fu, who envied Duke Cheng Guoguo Zhu Yong for giving birth to a good son. Chen Yichen and Zhu Yi, both civil and military, have envied many honorary relatives.

This led to the fact that even though Duke Cheng Guogong Zhu Yong was asked to be guilty and seized the title, no one dared to underestimate Duke Cheng Guogong's Mansion. After seeing this, he still had to politely call him "Dude".

The reason is that the ministers of the Xun and Qi all knew in their hearts that with these two brothers, the family deterioration of the Duke Chengguo’s mansion would be temporary, and the family would definitely be prosperous in the future!

"Tell him in."

"Yes, Master Third."

After the butler received the order, he led Zhu Yi, who was standing outside the yard, to walk in.

Seeing that there were also Jingyuan Wang Ji and other ministers of honor and relatives in the Duke of England, Zhu Yi had no surprise expression on his face and bowed calmly and calmly: "I have met you uncles."

"The lower official has met two governors."

Zhu Yi called Wang Ji and others a junior and the civil servant was a junior. He obviously told the other party that he came to discuss matters from the position of honor and relatives today, emphasizing the friendship between his fathers.

"I wonder what happened to my nephew who came here to visit today?"

Zhang Fu asked with a smile on his face. He had a close relationship with Zhu Yi. It can be said that he grew up watching him since childhood. There is no need for both parties to pretend to be polite.

"I came here for the sake of Chen Yichen."

Although he had expected it, when Zhu Yi said Chen Yichen's name so directly, the honors and ministers present still looked unnatural.

"Nephew, do you want to plead for Chen Yichen?"

"No, I'm urging you uncles to stop your horse!"

If the previous expression is just unnatural, Zhu Yi's words are quite unpolite.

The Du Yu envoy Yang Shan had no friendship with Zhu Yi, so he immediately snorted coldly and replied: "Zhu Tongzhi's tone is a little louder. I don't know if this is what you mean or what your grandfather wants."

Zhu Yi naturally had no right to persuade these important officials of the court to "stop the cliff", unless it was Duke Cheng Guo, Zhu Yong, and used the connections of the Xunqi Group and the generals of the nine-sided border.

If it was Zhu Yong's words, then no matter how much he said it, he would give him some thinness.

"My father is not inconvenient to interfere in the government affairs now, so he means to be a subordinate."

Hearing that it was just Zhu Yi's advice, Yang Shan couldn't help but look down on him a little. He said, "Zhu Tongzhi, I know that Chen Yichen is your blood brother, but after all, he has not been included in the genealogy of Duke Cheng's Mansion, so he is still a family."

"Disobeying the Queen Mother and plotting against the Supreme Emperor can be called a serious crime of beheading. The family rules are not as large as the national law. If Chen Yichen can escape punishment like this, then where is the royal majesty and the dignity of the law?"

Yang Shan is worthy of being a civil servant, and his words are very harsh. Zhu Yi is not qualified to plead for Chen Yichen, let alone come to the door to use this "warning" tone. Did he think he was the eldest son of Duke Cheng who was in the prime of his life?

"Yang Duxian, then do you know what the general trend is that it is impossible to violate?"

"I...

Faced with Zhu Yi's replies, Yang Shangang was about to activate his good-looking tongue, but was directly interrupted by the other party.

"Dear uncles, is it just a coincidence that I chose to visit you at this time?"

When Zhu Yi said this, it was equivalent to telling Zhang Fu and others openly that he knew what the Empress Dowager ordered to convey, so he came to visit him.

What makes people even more terrifying is that according to the speed of Zhu Yi's visit, it is almost synchronized with the time when Cao Jixiang left the palace. In other words, when the empress dowager conveys the order, the news was already released by someone who is interested, so it may be more than Zhu Yi who knows it!

"Nephew Zhu, let's continue talking!"

Wang Ji, the boss of Jingyuan, realized the seriousness of the problem, so he raised his hand to stop Yang Shan's verbal battle and asked Zhu Yi to finish his words.

"The Empress Dowager ordered all uncles to lead the Southern Expedition Army to suppress the sects of the capital who beat the drums. This not only violated the Taizu Emperor's words and unblocked ancestral system, but also stood opposite the scholars of all the world. In the future, they would be disgraced and held accountable."

"I can't even arrive in the future. My younger generation has learned that Qian Xili, the Minister of Rites, Ni Qian, and other civil officials of Hanlin Prefecture, are on their way to the Meridian Gate."

"Do you uncles, do you want to defeat all the Hanlin Imperial College Qinggui and provoke a dispute between civil and military affairs in the Ming Dynasty?"

After the Empress Dowager Sun woke up, she felt the threat of Chen Yi's great power and was scolded by the "Original Commentary", which finally made reason overcome her anger. She planned to follow the advice of Emperor Zhu Qiyu, call on the Southern Conquest Army to suppress the prisoners of the capital, and use a quick knife to cut the mess.

But Empress Dowager Sun never expected that she ordered Cao Jixiang to pass on the message, and the news was sent by Cheng Jing to pass on to the ministers in the court and the Duke Cheng's mansion.

When he heard that the Empress Dowager wanted to send troops to suppress the imperial examinations and the Imperial College students, no matter whether they were civil servants who were friends with Chen Yichen, they rushed towards the direction of the Meridian Gate, intending to defend the dignity of the civil and civil law!

After listening to Zhu Yi's story, even though he was as powerful as Zhang Fu, he was sweating in his back in the cold winter.

If I really did not resist the temptation of Xijue and led my troops to suppress the scholars who were knocking on the Meridian Gate, it would be equivalent to crossing the bottom line of the civil servant group and the two sides would be in a state of inconsistent situation.

By then, even the Empress Dowager will not be able to withstand the general trend of Wendao, let alone herself?

Compared to Zhang Fu's only thought of the dispute between civil and military affairs, Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji saw something deeper, which could spread the news so quickly and form a "power" force to fight against the Empress Dowager's imperial decree.

I'm afraid that Chen Yichen can't do it alone, even if you add Duke Cheng, Zhu Yong, you still can't do it.

This means that behind Chen Yichen is a higher-level force pushing forward. Who is this person or this force?

There are only a handful of civil and military officials in the court who have this ability, and the answer is almost revealed. He is the Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty!

Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji didn't know whether this was a trap set by the emperor or a layout completed by hand. But no matter which one it was, it means that the current emperor was no longer the confused and weak King of Huang at the beginning of his ascension, and was rapidly developing towards a qualified emperor.

It seems that I have to re-examine this King of Saving Time. Perhaps his ability and potential are far beyond the original estimate!

"Nephew Zhu came very timely. If you take a slight wrong step, you will bring the Ming Dynasty into the abyss. Ben Bo thanked me."

Uncle Jingyuan had already seen the whole story clearly, and he bowed to Zhu Yi and thanked him.

On the surface, the dispute lies in whether Chen Yichen should be punished, but in fact it triggered a dispute between imperial power and subordinate power. If you continue to stand in a row, there will even be a confrontation between civil and military forces, and the separation between the Southern Expedition Army and the Beijing Camp and the northern border army.

At that point, the capital that has not been captured by the Tartars may inexplicably be trapped in internal wars.

Facing this abyss, it is indeed a cliff to stop!

"Jingyuan Bo is very wise, how dare I take credit for you?"

Smart people speak simply, and Zhu Yi doesn’t have to explain things thoroughly. Wang Ji can understand what can be done and what can’t be done.

Although both sides stand on different positions and even support different kings, the concept of ruling and country first has penetrated into the bones of every Ming Dynasty minister at this time, unlike the later party struggles regarding the family and country as nothing.

So what if the world is destroyed? Anyway, it will not affect the glory and wealth of the small family. I will continue to be my "loyal minister" in the Qing Dynasty.

Speaking of this, Chen Mao, the Marquis of Ningyang, Zhang Fu, the Right Governor of Ningyang, and others all understood the hidden worries behind them.

At this time, Chen Mao, the Marquis of Ningyang, replied meaningfully: "It is indeed not suitable for interfering in politics in the harem."

After all, the wife is a woman and her vision is not long-term. Even Zhu Qiyu, who has not received any imperial education, can grow up quickly and use the general trend to seize power. However, Empress Dowager Sun only wants to send troops to suppress it simply and roughly.

After all, a virtuous queen like the Empress Dowager Zhang is a rare encounter in a century. It seems that it is not a blessing for the Ming Dynasty to rely on Empress Dowager Sun to control the government.

When he heard Ningyang Hou Chen Mao say this, Yang Shan's face turned extremely blue. You must know that he is not a Ming Xunqin who is in the same reunion as the country. Whether Zhu Qiyu ascends the throne or Zhu Qizhen's restoration, he can basically enjoy super honor, it's just to see if he can go further.

If Empress Dowager Sun is forced to delegate power, then being the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen returns to Beijing will be like being cut off one arm, lacking the support of the legal system from the harem.

Who would have thought that the seemingly great situation and the sure victory was a turnaround that was completed by Chen Yichen overnight.

Yang Shan couldn't help but wonder in his heart. Should this be said to be Chen Yichen's ability or his destiny? If other court officials disobeyed the Supreme Emperor in public and stubbornly prevented the Supreme Emperor from returning to the capital, they would probably die a few times!

But no matter how unwilling he was in his heart, Yang Shan could not do much in the face of this general trend. The honorary of the Nanzheng Army led by Wang Ji, the uncle of Jingyuan, would not end up, and he could not support himself, the right censor alone.

As for the Zuodu Censor Wang Wen, he is currently a clay Buddha who crosses the river and cannot protect himself. The imprint of Wang Zhen’s eunuch party is still on him. If the Chinese civil servant group in the court recalls the humiliation that the Jinyiwei commander Ma Shun was beaten to death, it might be staged again!

In the Huagai Hall, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu reviewed the memorial, but his eyes looked out of the hall from time to time, and it was obvious that he was a little absent-minded.

"Cheng Jing, has the news that the Empress Dowager is going to send troops to suppress him? Has it been released?"

"I have been released, please be calm."

Feeling the worry and uneasiness of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu, Cheng Jing comforted him.

Maybe the new king's strategy and methods have gradually grown up, but it is impossible to cultivate the emperor's mentality of not being surprised by honor and disgrace in a short period of time. Zhu Qiyu almost wrote his mood on his face.

"Will there be any court officials respond?"

What Zhu Qiyu was most afraid of was the powerful minister taking the authority of the Empress Dowager Yu and the military commander of the Jingyuan Bonan Army. No one dared to stand up and oppose it, and all his efforts would be wasted.

And what is even more serious is that afterwards, someone realized all this and let the Empress Dowager know her "restlessness", and the matter of abolishing the establishment may be put on the agenda!

This is not only Chen Yichen's struggle, but also the struggle of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu against the empress dowager's authority.

"Ni Qian, the Hanlin Academy, and Qian Xili, the Minister of Rites, have already gone to the Meridian Gate Station first. I heard that the subsequent Gaoge Lao, the Minister of Revenue Jin Lian and other ministers of the Meridian Department will also go to the Meridian Gate to ask for orders."

"I believe that the Empress Dowager dares not take the blame for the world and resolutely sends troops to clear the field."

Hearing Cheng Jingjing's answer, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, as if he remembered something, he asked again: "Cheng Jing, the Empress Dowager is healthy. Can she bear such a blow?"

Facing Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu, Cheng Jing felt a little worried again. He could understand the emperor's mentality, but he understood more deeply the words Chen Yichen said in the carriage.

Royal ruthless relatives are a derogatory term, and in a sense, this must be done. Only by cutting off the feelings of ordinary people can one become a qualified king.

"The Empress Dowager was just anxious and had no serious health. I believe that after experiencing this incident, she would understand what the general trend is and live a peaceful life in the harem."

"That's good."

Emperor Jingtai nodded. No matter what Empress Dowager Sun said, she was the first to withstand the pressure and support herself in the position of inheriting the throne.

After saying that, Zhu Qiyu's expression became a little lonely and added: "I hope so."

If there was no battle for imperial power, there might be some mother-son relationship between myself and the empress dowager.
