Chapter 263 I don't want to repeat the mistakes of His Majesty the Emperor
In the distant horizon, the setting sun is already surrounded by red clouds and slowly sinks below the horizon. However, in the distance, the majestic border fortress still stands proudly above the horizon. Under the rendering of the setting sun, it is covered with
A layer of gold makes it appear more indestructible and towering.
"This is the second batch of shoe envoys we have killed. I wonder if those guys will send people to die." The knight wiped off the blood on the corpse of the tile shoe with a blood-stained sword.
After that, he slowly put his scabbard into his sheath and said, "Who knows, anyway, the Commander-in-Chief said, kill as many people as you come up on the grassland. In short, you can't let a trace of news reach the capital." A Ming army cavalry looked at the man.
The corpse with the head and body separated from the thorn shoes said this sentence.
"It doesn't matter whether the message can be passed back or not. The army of the Commander-in-Chief set off in these three to five days. Now, all the army of shoes on the grassland has gone to the central part to compete with the Junggar tribe.
If our armies from the three towns don't send out troops at this time, I'm afraid we won't even be able to drink the soup by then." She put the sword into its sheath, turned over on his mount, and took a cold look at the body that was getting colder.
Then he shouted resolutely and galloped towards the fort over there...
In the capital, at this moment, the originally gorgeous Concubine He Guifei had a look of lust on her face, and she coldly listened to the report of the eunuch who was bowing before her. "Half a month ago, through Chen Yi, the internal official of the Bell and Drum Department,
Of the six prostitutes who were recommended by Yue Jinrong, Zuo Si of Jiaofang, to be banned from the palace, there are still four of them staying in the palace. Among them, Li Xi'er is the most favored by Lord Long Live. In the past half month, Lord Long Live has at least
I spend half of my time staying at Li Xi'er's place, and the rest of the time..."
"That's enough! Stop talking." Concubine He shouted viciously. The eunuch heard the coldness in Concubine He's tone and couldn't help but bury his head lower.
"He is a majestic emperor of the Ming Dynasty. As the king of a country, how can he be like this? He hangs out with prostitutes all day long and is not afraid of making people laugh." Concubine He took a deep breath and tried her best.
She maintained her aura as an imperial concubine, her demeanor was still so dignified, and her grace was still so outstanding, but the jealousy and resentment revealed in her words could not be concealed even by the triple gate.
"Xing'an, Zhang Yong and those old guys don't come to see me these days. Well, well, they feel that I have been neglected by Long Live Lord and that I have lost favor, but they don't think about it.
Who gave birth to your majesty's eldest son?" Concubine Hang Guifei sighed lightly, but she still had a bit of determination in her heart. She didn't have any sympathy for the long-lived man who stayed around those prostitutes all day long.
However, Zhu Jianji is her biological son after all. As long as Long live the Lord has no other heirs, no one can pry into the position that belongs to him or her son.
"Long live the Lord, please spare me..." Li Xier's gentle and soft words, Wu Yi's soft words that greeted him even when he refused, were still echoing in Zhu Qiyu's ears, thinking about Li Xier's soft words that seemed to be able to be manipulated by him.
Turning her white jade-like body into any shape, thinking about the shēn moans coming out of her mouth, and those words, Zhu Qiyu really had the urge to retreat from the court immediately, drive back to the palace, and then ruthlessly kill this seductive little goblin.
The last time I did it, I saw her eyes watery, her face flushed, and her urge to beg for mercy in a low voice.
"...This little Lang's hooves are really becoming more and more bold. Today, it seems that it is time to get some new ones. Zhu Qiyu, who had a tired face, yawned slightly, and couldn't help but think of those palace collections and paintings by famous artists.
's catalog.
Well, another thing is that Li Xi'er has a younger brother. Since his sister is favored by him, as an emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he must give something. After all, I heard that Li Xi'er said that his younger brother is just a
As a poor little businessman, as the brother of his beloved concubine, he should still show some respect. Well, one day, I will find an opportunity to provide Li An with a hereditary family of royal guards. Think of it this way, Li Xi'er's
I will definitely be grateful in my heart. At that time, under the deliberate flattery of the goblin...
Zhu Qiyu blinked and cast his gaze on the ministers below the alchemy level. Looking at the familiar faces that made him feel particularly unhappy, he couldn't help but feel a little impatient in his heart.
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I have been wrestling with the matter of deposing and establishing the crown prince for so long. I still can't come up with an accurate conclusion. I am worthy of being the emperor. I am really frustrated to the extreme.
However, Zhu Qiyu was quite persistent, or in other words, he knew that he had to persevere. For Zhu Jianji and for his direct bloodline to inherit this position after his death, he had to fight a war of attrition and a protracted war with these courtiers.
But now, his face, which was not fat in the first place, looks even thinner than when he first came to the throne. Due to long-term medication, there will always be a strange blush on his face, and his two eye sockets also appear to be particularly prominent.
.
At this moment, an eunuch suddenly appeared at the door of the hall, holding something in his hand. After whispering something quickly in the ear of the eunuch standing outside the door, the eunuch
The eunuch took the things handed to him with a look of astonishment, and then quietly walked into the palace. Carefully walking from behind the courtiers, he walked around to the man who had been closing his eyes and lowering his eyebrows, watching coldly as he continued to sacrifice for the emperor.
The ministers who were arguing about the establishment of the prince were in the hands of Yu Qian, the Minister of War.
Yu Qian was slightly stunned at first, but after taking the thing and taking a look, Yu Qian's expression changed drastically. He raised his head and saw that everyone was still fighting over each other, and he couldn't help but pause.
He shouted: "Everyone, the Emperor is here, and the noise in the court hall has been going on for nearly an hour. Could it be that Mo Feier and the others treat this place of governance as a marketplace?!"
Hearing Yu Qian's shout, all the civil and military officials who had been arguing in full swing couldn't help but be stunned. They didn't even have time to wipe the foam from their mouths. They all looked at the disputes in the court during this period with strange expressions.
At that time, Yu Qian, the Minister of War, seemed unusually quiet and never participated in such debates.
"The country and the country have so many important affairs that need to be dealt with by you, but you are constantly arguing about the same thing all day long. Can't you put aside the things that cannot be decided and do what you must do first?" Yu Qian
A fire arose in my heart. Although these words were directed at the ministers, they also contained a hint of resentment towards the emperor.
Zhu Qiyu, who is sitting on the dragon chair, is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He stays in the harem all day long and handles all government affairs, entrusting them to the cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies. This is fine, but he almost every court meeting.
He wanted to interfere with the matter of abolishing the crown prince, as if not doing so would not attract everyone's attention to him as the great emperor.
Hearing the vague resentment against him in Yu Qian's words, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and yelled. Fortunately, Jin Ying, who was standing next to Zhu Qiyu, coughed gently, and then quietly
He stretched out his hand and tugged on Zhu Qiyu's sleeve, finally waking up the great emperor Fu Yuqian. He was one of the biggest contributors to his ascension to the throne. Among the courtiers, although they did not stand up to support his change to crown prince, they never stood up.
When he came to the opposing side, Zhu Qiyu could only take a deep breath to calm down before he became angry and said calmly: "Yu Aiqing's words are reasonable. I wonder what Aiqing's advice is?"
Yu Qian, who was standing under the alchemy steps, took a step forward. "I inform your Majesty that the Ministry of War has received the letter of surrender from Wa Ci, forwarded by Jiang Fu, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu..."
"What?!" Almost at the same moment, everyone's expressions changed involuntarily, and they looked at Yu Qian with dumbfounded expressions, as if they had suddenly heard an absurd joke.
Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but stood up from the dragon chair. Seeing the scroll held by Yu Qian in both hands, he couldn't help but shout and asked, "Is Yu Aiqing serious about what he said?"
Jin Ying had already wisely stepped down the Dan steps, took the scroll from Yu Qian's hand, quickly returned to Zhu Qiyu's side and handed it over respectfully. After Zhu Qiyu spread the scroll, a look on his face
At first, he showed a bit of surprise, but then the joy on his face suddenly froze, as if he was suddenly frozen into an ice sculpture by an eternal cold wind.
Because in the letter of surrender, the Great Khan of the Wasi Kingdom was also assassinated by the emperor first. The empire is currently working hard to quell the rebellion. As the new Grand Master and Assistant Minister, Di Boyan Tiemur expressed his willingness to obey His Majesty the Ming Emperor Zhu Qi.
The town expressed kindness and decided to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. In order to express the sincerity of the Waca Kingdom, they were willing to help the Ming Dynasty and jointly send troops to deal with and deal with all the grassland tribes who dared to be disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty.
What are these words? After seeing this, Zhu Qiyu felt that all the boiling blood was squeezed into his brain, and it was like a pile of firewood that was burning brightly, and someone poured a large basin of cold water on it.
A heart-warming one.
And Yu Qian, who was under the alchemy level, seemed to have not seen the change of expression on Zhu Qiyu's face, and recited the contents of the credential in a deep voice.
,
one………
However, the civil and military officials did not clapped their hands and congratulated each other as they usually did when they heard good news. Instead, they fell into a strange silence because of the shock brought by the news. Everyone quickly thought of the time when His Majesty the Emperor had not long ago.
He made it clear that he was going to do all kinds of things to the Waqi Empire.
He vowed not to kill, injure or maim the Ming Dynasty's powerful enemy, the Wasi Empire, so he wrote his name upside down. Well, of course there was some exaggeration in the rumors, but combined with this credential, he couldn't help but
It reminds people of the series of actions of His Majesty the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen some time ago. If there is no necessary contact here, even if they are beaten to death, they will not believe it.
The smile on Zhu Qiyu's face could no longer be maintained, and he staggered slightly as he sat back on the dragon chair. His eyes, which were sunk in his eye sockets, were staring at the credential, as if he wanted to transfer it.
A hole was burned into the document written on silk paper.
This is indeed a rare piece of news for the Ming Dynasty. It can even be said to be the best news ever heard since the death of Emperor Taizong, a wonderful piece of good news. But for Zhu Qiyu, the current emperor,
This was something that made him extremely uncomfortable and on pins and needles.
"...Your Majesty, now, the great leader of the Wasi generation has been killed by his subordinate Aci first. The Junggar tribe, which is the core force of the Wasi empire, has also collapsed. And the grassland tribes will definitely not fail to take advantage of this opportunity.
Qi Fu. At this time, it is the best opportunity for our Ming Dynasty to use troops. I hope that Your Majesty will issue an order and lead the governors and general soldiers to prepare their troops and horses to attack the grassland, restore peace to our Ming Dynasty's northern frontier, and restore our Ming Dynasty Yongle.
The prosperity of the prosperous age, the humiliation of the snow-capped earth and wood fortress, and the siege of the capital of the Ming Dynasty by the grassland tribes..."
"Exactly, Your Majesty, it is the right time to send troops to the grassland. I hope that Your Majesty will ensure peace for the next hundred years in the Northern Territory of the Ming Dynasty..."
The ministers stood up one after another, standing behind Yu Qian, and they all agreed. But Zhu Qiyu's face became darker and darker, and his eyes swept over these excited ministers.
I don't know why, but a bit of helpless desolation arose in my heart. I am the emperor of Ming Dynasty and the emperor of this empire. Why? Why do these people always want to go against me?
Why do they always like to stand on the opposite side of themselves? No matter what the matter is, they will always have a reason to jump out and accuse themselves, or to block themselves overtly or covertly. How can the majestic emperor live such a miserable life?
And now, his elder brother, Zhu Qizhen, who has abdicated, is unable to control the ministers in the border town of Xuanfu. He can only reluctantly give him a post to supervise the military and political affairs in the border town of Xuanfu. This is just for the sake of
Keep your mouth shut so that as long as he stays in that miserable place, you can be your own emperor in peace and contentment.
But who would have imagined that while he was in Xuanfu, he didn't seem to dislike the bitter cold at the frontier fortress. He made a fuss there all day long, killing the guarding eunuchs, retraining the border troops and reorganizing the border defenses, and then secretly
The tea horse market was brought to Xuanfu Town to make a lot of money.
How could Zhu Qiyu not know these things in his heart? However, every time he secretly instigated people to take action and spread these issues to the court, many important ministers would always stand up in unison. It seemed that only Zhu Qizhen
Everything he did was for the country and the people, and he was completely making trouble without reason.
"This matter was only reported by one town in Xuanfu, how can we know whether it is true or false?
Since this is a serious matter, we should first ask the generals from all over the world to investigate the real situation and report back to me before making a decision. We must not fall for Wazi's deception. I don't want to repeat the same mistakes as His Majesty the Emperor." Zhu Qiyu coldly dropped such a message.
After saying a word, he looked at some of the letters of credence that were still spread out on the dragon case, with a look of disgust on his face, and walked away with a puff of sleeves.
A group of ministers, full of high spirits and joyful will to fight, were left standing there in a daze...!
