On the first day of May, midnight had long passed, and the night in Fuzhou had become quiet, but the atmosphere in the palace in the north of the city gradually became lively.
First, palace officials came in and out with summonses, and then officials hurriedly came with special tokens and knocked on the door.
If it were in Bianliang and Lin'an in the past, such a thing would not have happened. The royal majesty is greater than the sky. No matter how big the news is, it can be discussed in the morning. And if there is a special person who really wants to enter the palace during the child's time, usually
Also let the hanging basket be lowered from the wall and pulled up.
But in the past few months in Fuzhou, many rules and etiquette were temporarily broken. Facing the chaos, the new emperor, who worked hard to govern, often stayed up all night. Although he mostly arranged to study at night, occasionally things happened in the city
, he would leave the palace at night, or call people in overnight to inquire and ask for advice. Soon after, he would also have people remove the hanging basket and open a side door to let people in.
In the early morning of May, the emperor originally planned to go to bed and rest after midnight, but he was too late to ask for advice and study on some things. Then an urgent message came from outside. Tie Tianying knew that what was coming next
Another sleepless night.
He patrolled the palace and told the guards to cheer up. This old catcher was nearly sixty years old, with half of his hair white, but his eyes were sharp and his energy was hidden. Within a few months, he was responsible for the garrison around the new king.
, arrange everything in order.
Compared with several great masters in the world in the past, Tie Tianying's skills can only be considered first-rate. He has been fighting for decades and has suffered numerous physical injuries. His control of the body and martial arts cultivation are far from the best.
He is not as advanced as Zhou Tong, Lin Zongwu and others. But when it comes to the knack of fighting, the control of the green forest doorways in the rivers and lakes, and the understanding of the people in the court and the palace, he can be regarded as the one who knows the green forest best in the court.
He is one of the people who knows the court best in Green Forest.
In the past ten years, he first accompanied Li Pin to kill Ning Yi, and then resigned from the official position in frustration. In the general trend of the world, the old catcher could not see a way out. Later, he had many fights with Li Pin
He went to the Central Plains to establish the Caohe Gang to deliver news for Li Pin, and he also had the intention of recruiting people with lofty ideals from all over the world to do his part. After the death of the Jian Shuo Dynasty, the world was in chaos, but in that chaotic crisis, Tie Tianying did indeed
Witnessed the journey of the new emperor Junwu fighting and resisting all the way.
By the middle and late stages of his escape, Tie Tianying was already organizing manpower to take charge of Junwu's safety. In the few months since he arrived in Fuzhou, he had arranged all aspects of the palace guards and the Green Forest Alliance.
If not, with the level of publicity that Jun Wu had to deal with during this period, he would have encountered more than a few assassinations with loud thunder and small raindrops.
In the past, when he was in the court, he always felt discouraged, but recently he was able to see the young emperor's various behaviors and his heartfelt efforts. For Tie Tianying, it gave him more willpower.
, so far, even if he is asked to die for the other party immediately, he really will not frown at all. Therefore, when he comes to Fuzhou, he carefully selects and strictly disciplines his subordinates. He does not make money himself,
Favoritism, well-versed in favors but able to refuse favors, all the bad habits that could be seen in the Six Doors in the past have basically been wiped out around him.
So in this city today, outside there are troops led by Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, inside there are the inner court guards controlled by Tie Tianying, there are the Princess Palace and the Secret Investigation Department for intelligence, and Li Pin for propaganda... In a small area, it is really like this.
Control like an iron bucket, and this control is getting stronger day by day.
The rising sun always gives people the most hope.
After inspecting the small palace, people were coming to the side entrance one after another. Wenren Buer was the first to arrive, followed by Cheng Zhouhai, and then Li Pin... He was under Qin Siyuan's command, and he had a lot of connections with Ning Yi.
These people who had close contact had never been assigned important positions in the court, but they were always generalists who performed the duties of prime minister and assistant as a staff. After seeing Tie Tianying, the two sides greeted each other, and then asked about Jun Wu's whereabouts.
Tie Tianying said: "Your Majesty received the letter. After sitting in the study for a while, he took a walk to the Yangnan Hall. I heard that he wanted a bottle of wine."
"Yangnan Hall..."
Cheng Zhouhai laughed, Wenren Buer had a complicated look on his face, and Li Pin frowned: "This is going to be spread out so that others will talk about it."
Tie Tianying said: "Your Majesty is happy, who dares to say."
Li Pin glanced at him: "Old Tie, as a minister, loyalty and advice are the most valuable thing."
Tie Tianying cupped his hands and smiled: "I am just a guard, and it is your business to give advice."
"If your advice fails, it will be your responsibility, Mr. Tie, to drag him out to fight."
"At that time, we will take care of him and we will fight him lightly."
Cheng Zhouhai and Wen Renbuer both laughed, and Li Pin shook his head and sighed. In fact, although Cheng Zhouhai and Wenren had some conflicts with Tie Tianying during the Qin Siyuan period, these quarrels were resolved during the trip together in the second half of last year.
After the meeting, the two parties could still chat and laugh for a few words, but when they thought about Yangnan Hall, they still couldn't help but frown.
After the new imperial court was established in Fuzhou, it was a palace that was hastily requisitioned. The Yangnan Hall occupies a large area, but its main function is to commemorate the ancestors of the Wu Dynasty and the heroes of the past dynasties. There are emperors of the Wu Dynasty in the main hall, and there are also many heroes on the side.
There are also seats for Qin Siyuan and others. Jun Wu occasionally goes by, and those who worship are actually Qin Siyuan, Chengguo Princess Zhou Xuan and others. Kang Xian is the son-in-law of his wife. There is no tablet here, but Zhou Xuan is worshiped.
Xuan, it is equivalent to worshiping Kangxian.
The problem is, Ning Yi in the southwest defeated the Jurchens, and you went to comfort your ancestors. What would Zhou Zhe think? What would your late emperor who died at sea think? This is not a consolation, it is a slap in the face. If it is spread out clearly, it will be a slap in the face.
The staunch official of the Ministry of Rites might be knocked to death on a pillar again.
"We still need to keep our mouths shut. Your Majesty's behavior tonight cannot be spread." After joking, Li Pin still whispered to Tie Tianying, who nodded: "Understood."
Li Pin couldn't help but sigh again. Several people went to the side hall of the imperial study, looked at each other, and didn't say anything for a while. Ning Yi's victory was the most complicated for them. They couldn't cheer, and it was hard to talk about it.
It was difficult to tell the truth or lie. After a while, Zhou Pei also came. She was wearing only a thin layer of makeup, wearing single clothes, and her expression was calm. After arriving, she called for Jun Wu to be brought back from Yangnan Hall.
Not long after, footsteps sounded, and Jun Wu's figure appeared at the door of the side hall. His eyes were still calm. He saw everyone in the hall with a smile, but he held the three-page intelligence in his right hand.
, still swaying unconsciously, everyone saluted, and he smiled: "Without courtesy, go to the study room." After that, he walked to the side.
The imperial study room is brightly lit, and hanging in front is the now fragmented map of the Wu Dynasty. For the officials of the Wu Dynasty who come here every day, it is like a shame. There are some handmade artifacts related to the objects hanging around the map.
There were papers piled up on the desk. Jun Wu was holding the piece of information and facing the map. He turned around after everyone came in. Only then could he see the slight red color in the corners of his eyes in the light, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in the air.
He probably just ran to the Yangnan Hall to cry and drink some wine. At this time, he did not shy away from everyone and smiled: "Sit down wherever you want. We all know the news, right? Good thing." It has been nearly a year since he took the throne.
As time passed, he sometimes ran in front of the formation, sometimes comforted the refugees in person, and often shouted at the top of his lungs. Now his voice was slightly hoarse, but it also looked more steady and steady. Everyone nodded and saw that Jun Wu was not sitting down, so naturally he was not sitting either.
Jun Wu slapped the table with his palm, walked around half a circle, and then sat down directly on the steps next to him.
In the Imperial Study Room, the side where the desk is placed is a little higher than this side, so there is this step. Seeing him sitting on the ground, Zhou Pei frowned, went over to pull him up, and pushed him back to sit on the chair behind the desk.
Next, Jun Wu has a good personality, but he doesn't resist. He sits there with a smile on his face.
Cheng Zhouhai, Wenren Buer, and Li Pin looked at each other. After a little hesitation, they were about to give advice. On the other side of the table, Jun Wu raised his two palms and slapped them hard on the table. He stood up.
He stood up and his eyes became serious. Tie Tianying looked over from the door.
"I know why you are unhappy, but I am! Very! Happy!"
Having been in a high position for a long time, you have dignity. Although Junwu has only been on the throne for a year, the things he has experienced, the choices and sufferings between life and death, have already given him a lot of majesty, but he has not always been
He didn't show it in front of the people around him - especially his sister - but at this moment, after looking around, he spoke word by word. First he said "I", and then "I".
He raised the information in his hand and then slapped it on the table.
"Since the end of March, all we have received is good news! Since last year, we have been chased by the Jurchens all the way. When we were defeated, the intelligence we received from the southwest is good news! Yu Yu! Dalai
!Yin Shu Ke! Pull off the speed! Wan Yan Xian Bao! Wan Yan She Ye Ma! These names died one by one! In today’s news, Wan Yan She Ye Ma was killed by the Chinese Army in front of Nian Han Old Dog
Knife after knife! He chopped his son to death with knife after knife in front of him! Nianhan and Xiyin could only run away! This news! I am very happy! I can’t wait to look into Nianhan’s eyes in Hanzhong.
!”
"But I can't see it!" Jun Wu waved his hand, paused slightly, his lips trembling, "Today... have you forgotten the shame of Jingping? Have you forgotten what happened last year? The massacre in Jiangning...
...I have not forgotten! We have come to this point because we are incompetent, but someone has done this, and we cannot say it is not good without conscience. I am very happy. I am very happy."
"Your Majesty..." Hearing this, Bu Er cupped his hands and stopped talking.
Jun Wu stood there with his head lowered and was silent for a moment. He waved when Wen Renbuer spoke: "Of course I know why you are so straight-faced, and I also know what you want to say. You know it's inappropriate to be too happy.
I understand even if you want to advise me. You have been my relatives, mentors, and helpful friends all these years. But... I have figured out one thing during the six months since I became emperor. We must have the magnanimity to think about the world.
.”
He glanced at the people in the hall and took a breath: "The Wu Dynasty was beaten like this. The Jurchens have bullied me and the Han people! Just because the Chinese army is hostile to me, I don't admit that he has done a good job? They
After defeating the Jurchens, do we still feel like we are in danger of a disaster? Are we thinking about the safety of the people in the world, or are we thinking about the colorful hat on our heads?"
"The so-called "working hard to govern", what does "working hard to govern" mean? We will rely on the local area to survive slowly until the people of the Jin Kingdom are corrupted and the Chinese army is gone, and then we will regain the world? The words must be made clear, the so-called "working hard to govern" means "working hard to govern".
It is to understand your own mistakes and understand your previous failures! Correct yourself and become stronger! Our goal is also to defeat the Jurchens. The Jurchens have become corrupted and become weak. We must defeat them. If the Jurchens are still like
With the power he had before, even if Wanyan Aguda is reborn, we will still defeat him! This is a hard-working effort! There is no room for compromise!"
"The Jurchens were very powerful in the past! Today the Chinese Army is very powerful! Maybe there will be others who will be very powerful tomorrow! Oh, today we saw that the Chinese Army defeated the Jurchens, and we were trembling with fear, thinking this was bad news...
Such a person has no qualifications to take over the world!" Jun Wujiang waved his hand fiercely, his eyes were serious and tiger-like, "You can persuade me on many things, but on this matter, I have thought clearly about it, so there is no need to persuade me."
"I want to be this emperor and regain the world. I want those people who died unjustly not to die again. Our Wu Dynasty has failed people, and I don't want to fail them again! I don't want to be a trembling weakling with a dark mind. When I see
The stronger the enemy is, the more evil intentions he will have. The Chinese army is strong, which means they can do it - why can't we do it if they can do it? Why should you be the emperor if you can't do it? It means you are not worthy of being the emperor! It means you deserve to die.
——”
His cheeks were red and his eyes were slightly red. He paused here and looked at a few people: "I know, you are not unhappy about this matter, but you can only do this. I understand your advice and I understand it."
Accept it, I can only speak for this matter, so let me explain it clearly here."
He put his hand on the table: "This matter! We must celebrate it together! We must have such a big heart and don't need to hide it. I am very happy for what the Huaxia Army has done! Everyone should be happy too! Long live the emperor if you don't want it.
, there is no dynasty that lasts forever! In the past few years, a group of people have relied on their dirty thoughts to survive. Here, they join forces vertically and horizontally, and there are distant allies and close attacks. They can't breathe anymore! In the future, if we can't compare with the Chinese army, then go to hell.
It is the world that wants us to die! But today there are people outside who say that the Chinese army cannot last long. If we are better than him and defeat him, it means that we can last long. We must pursue such a long life! This word can be spread out and told to the world.
People listen!”
Jun Wu's words were impassioned and resounding, and then he slapped the table: "Li Qing, you will go back later, and you will be reported tomorrow - I said so!"
