Piaotian Literature Chapter 307: Brothers finally meet
Half an hour later, the guards in the Qianqing Palace opened the doors, put down their weapons, and gathered in a group dejectedly. They looked at the soldiers with bright armor and sharp weapons pouring in from outside the door. For a moment, the guards who had lost their fighting spirit became a little commotion under the stimulation of the approaching weapons. Press ctrl + d to quickly collect """
But at this time, Yang Hong, the left governor of the Central Military Governor's Mansion, Wang Zhi, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and Hu Yi, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, went away in succession. Seeing these three, the originally nervous guards of the Qianqing Palace couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. .
And Governor Mao Sheng, who had been holding the sword at his waist, holding his head high and glaring at the soldiers who wanted to come over to collect his weapons with an angry look on his face, couldn't help but feel light-hearted, and strode forward towards the three soldiers. He cupped his fists in salute and said, "I have met the Governor, Wang Shangshu, and Hu Shangshu. I wonder if you three know how His Majesty the Emperor will deal with us?"
"Captain Mao, your majesty has decreed that all guards should put down their weapons and return to their respective guard posts. They are not allowed to leave without permission." Yang Hong saw Mao Sheng and returned the salute before saying in a deep voice. "As long as you abide by the law, your majesty will naturally We will not kill anyone indiscriminately. When something big happens, everyone will perform their duties..."
After hearing this, the guards of Qianqing Palace couldn't help but show some unbelievable joy on their faces. And Mao Sheng couldn't help but be a little surprised. "Is this true?"
"Captain Mao, do you think His Majesty will go back on his promise?" Lao Wangzhi shouted in a low voice, somewhat displeased.
Mao Sheng gave a salute to Lao Wang with a look of shame on his face. "With three highly respected old men as witnesses, Mao has nothing to worry about."
"Not only do you not need to worry, they don't need to worry either. I have never broken my words." At this time, a powerful, powerful voice came from the door of Qianqing Palace, and the sound reached everyone. Zhu Qizhen, still wearing the heavy armor, strode in proudly surrounded by his personal guards.
Seeing that Zhu Qizhen would actually appear here at this time, Mao Sheng couldn't help but look stunned at first. Zhu Qizhen stepped in front of Mao Sheng and looked gently at this man with a typical Mongolian face. Kong's governor. "Mao Qing's family, why don't they remember me?"
Mao Sheng is indeed not a Han, but a Mongolian, and he is also the grandson of Bo Buhua, the right prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty. His uncle Na Hai joined the Ming Dynasty during the Hongwu period, and was promoted to the rank of Tongzhi, the capital commander, for his merit during the Jingnan Campaign.
Because he had no children, Mao Sheng's father, An Taisi, served as the commander of Yulin and passed it down to his son Mao Ji. After Mao Ji died without children, his younger brother Mao Sheng succeeded him. Mao Sheng accompanied Chengzu on many northern expeditions. , was promoted to the commander of the capital. He once fled to the outside of the fortress, and later found his own way and returned.

In the seventh year of Zhengtong, he was promoted to the governor Qianshi for his meritorious service in the Luchuan campaign. King Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji selected generals and ordered Mao Sheng and the governor Ran Bao to lead the troops and serve as left and right staff officers respectively. After winning, he was promoted to the governor Tongzhi. In the fourteenth year of Zhengtong, he also First attack the Ming Dynasty, Mao Sheng and Pingxiang Bo Chen Huai and others led 30,000 Beijing troops to guard Datong. Later, on the recommendation of Wu Qing Bo Shi Heng, Emperor Jing of the Ming Dynasty appointed Mao Sheng as the left governor and supervised the training of three thousand battalions. He was not only a tiger general , and he is also the highest-ranking Mongolian in the Ming Dynasty.
Seeing that Zhu Qizhen, who had been loyal to him for nearly fifteen years, was now standing in front of him proudly, with a calm expression and a military uniform, Mao Sheng suddenly thought that it was Emperor Taizong again.
Standing in front of him, Mao Sheng suddenly woke up when he heard Zhu Qizhen's shouts and questions, and subconsciously prostrated himself on the ground. "I see you, your Majesty."
"Get up, Mao Qing, would you like to accompany me to the Jiaotai Palace?" Zhu Qizhen looked at this veteran who was also over sixty years old and still majestic. He was a senior official with Mongolian descent, and he was exactly
Zhu Qizhen needed a ripe fruit to seduce, or inspire the people of the grassland tribes to turn to the Ming Dynasty. Although he had stood on Zhu Qiyu's side before, at least he made the right choice at the last moment.
Therefore, he must live.
After hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, which were used to express his attitude and express his metaphorical forgiveness, Mao Sheng's forehead hit the floor heavily. "I obey the decree."
The appearance of Zhu Qizhen, coupled with the exchange with Mao Sheng, allowed the surrendered soldiers to eliminate the last trace of doubt. Under the supervision of those soldiers, they lined up in rows, and then under the supervision of those soldiers
After that, he left Qianqing Palace and was escorted back to the camp where the guards were usually stationed.
And Zhu Qizhen and other people, surrounded by many personal guards, continued to walk towards the Jiaotai Palace. Along the way, they looked at the palace that exudes solemnity and solemnity, looking for memories in it.
I remember bit by bit the memories of the Forbidden City in the past, while looking at the eunuchs and palace maids who prostrated themselves on the ground I met along the way.
I really have the illusion that I am walking in the rift between time and space. In my previous life, I was just an ordinary member of the social group of ordinary people. It can even be said that I was a kind of person who lived a relatively miserable life.
.
But now, in this era, he is walking among these palaces as the emperor of the most powerful and prosperous empire in this era, and he is no longer a tourist, but here
's owner.
The heavy armor on his body clanked as he strode forward, as if beating his heartbeat. It reminded him that he was not living in the future, but in history, living there.
On the magnificent historical trend, the Ming Empire has been firmly grasped in the palm of its hand.
And the group of people following him, these famous ministers and generals who were famous in the Ming Dynasty, will walk with him on another path that is different from the original history.
Gradually, Zhu Qizhen's steps slowed down, because he saw a person, a young man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, who looked a little haggard and emaciated, standing in front of the door of Jiaotai Hall.
His sickly appearance did not diminish the pride on his face.
Behind him, there was a beautiful woman with a slightly haggard look and frightened eyes. She was holding a child of about three years old, standing there, looking away in this direction.
Under the eaves of the Jiaotai Hall, Wang Wen and several other civil servants stood there numbly at this moment, as stiff and numb as the stone sculptures standing in front of the emperor's mausoleum. The only thing that can prove that they are alive
, I'm afraid it's just the slightly rising and falling chest, and the eyes full of complex emotions that follow Zhu Qizhen's figure.
Around the Jiaotai Palace, nearly a hundred guards with swords looked here with complicated expressions, looking at Zhu Qizhen who appeared in front of the Jiaotai Palace.
When Zhu Qizhen and other people arrived behind the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu had already seen it. He raised his hand and pushed away Wang Qin who was supporting him, and then straightened the Wusha Yishan crown on his head. He straightened the dragon robe on his body, then stood up straight, raised his head, and looked at the people coming towards him.
And when this group of people got closer and closer, Zhu Qiyu finally saw clearly the people walking towards him. In addition to the familiar civil and military ministers, there was also the person who he had personally promoted and given important positions. In the end, he betrayed My own Shiheng.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
What concerned him even more was the tall figure walking at the front. That was Zhu Qizhen, who was striding forward in bright yellow heavy armor. His half-brother, the former Emperor of Heaven, Later, he was captured by Wa Ci and was inferior to his own supreme emperor.
And now, he has gone from being the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to being a lonely man now. However, Zhu Qizhen, the emperor who was supposed to be retiring in the Xuan Mansion, has taken all the advantages step by step and put himself There is no way out and no way out.
Zhu Qizhen also saw himself, but his vigorous steps did not stop at all. His face that used to look pale in the palace has now turned into a healthy red-black color. Although Zhu Qizhen used to be tall, He is tall and burly, yet exuding an elegant and gentle temperament.
But now, Zhu Qizhen, who is dressed in military uniform, looks more and more tall and burly. His eyes move, although not deliberately, but still reveal unspeakable power, like a weapon that has gone through countless trials and has become The unsheathed sword exuded dazzling light wantonly.
Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath, tried his best to stand up straighter, and looked at Zhu Qizhen, but his slightly trembling legs and his eyes that were filled with helplessness and despair, besides being angry, revealed that of his inner weakness.
When Zhu Shezhen was only a dozen steps away from Zhu Qiyu, he raised his arm and signaled the people behind him to stop first, and he continued to move forward. When he was only a few steps away from Zhu Qiyu, Then he stopped and looked at this very familiar yet unfamiliar younger brother.
Nowadays, Zhu Qiyu has sunken eyes and a withered face. Even though he tries hard to look proud and reserved, in Zhu Qizhen's eyes, he looks so unconfident. He looks like a loser. The red-eyed gambler who has lost everything is hesitating whether he should put his life or freedom as a bet.
And Zhu Qizhen looked at him. He was the one in front of him. He once regarded him as the obstacle that needed to be lifted the most. But now, seeing his appearance, Zhu Qizhen felt that he thought too highly of himself. A younger brother.
And when I thought about everything I had experienced in the past two years, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in my heart. I took a deep breath, calmed down the agitation of my mood, and looked at the person who was standing a few steps in front of me. A relieved smile appeared on Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Qizhen's face: "Qi Yu, after more than two years of separation, we two brothers finally meet again..."
