Chapter 86 Tianshun Zhu Qizhen VS the previous emperors of Ming Dynasty! (4.2k
The sound of thunder lingers, spreading throughout the Forbidden City.
"The emperor's restoration brings destiny."
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Xu Youzhen, Shi Heng, Cao Jixiang and other ministers who wanted to seize the door seemed to have seized some opportunity at the moment when the sound of thunder sounded, and they all knelt down to congratulate him.
This is the charm of theology.
After all, in these days, a normal astronomical phenomenon, such as Mars, Saturn, and the star Antares, which are connected in a line from the observation angle, can be regarded as "Yinghuo Shouxin", which is God's wish to the emperor.
alert.
Many prime ministers in the past dynasties fell into power because of this, and some were even forced to commit suicide.
In this case, there is nothing wrong with interpreting a thunderbolt as God's approval of Zhu Qizhen's restoration.
"Long live my emperor!"
"Long live! Long live!"
All the soldiers around him knelt down to worship, and the sound of the mountain shouts echoed endlessly above the Fengtian Gate.
"You idiots, what are you waiting for?"
Cao Jixiang was lying on the ground, screaming at the officials below.
On the dragon chair, overlooking the officials and ministers below, Tianshun Emperor Zhu Qizhen.
The hand has already been raised.
As soon as his hand falls, these ministers who would rather die than kneel will become dead souls under the sword and become the bloody flames celebrating the success of this victory.
Although some of the officials and ministers cursed and cursed, most of them were people who cherished their lives.
When the knife is placed on the neck, most of them are frightened.
After all, Han Chuang had studied hard for decades and had a career full of ups and downs. It was not easy to reach this level. He had more than a dozen concubines to raise, and no one wanted to just give it to him like this.
Before the butcher's knife, all the blood was gone, and he knelt on the ground with a thud.
However, there were still more than a dozen people who did not kneel down, straightening their backs and glaring angrily at Zhu Qizhen who was sitting on the dragon throne.
Among them were Wang Wen, Chen Xun and several other cabinet ministers.
Because they knew very well that other people could survive as long as they knelt down, but they could not. They were cabinet ministers, close ministers and important ministers of Emperor Jingtai, and they were the main force in supporting Zhu Qiyu back then.
When the Supreme Emperor is restored, even if he spares anyone in the world, he will not spare these cabinet members of the Jingtai Dynasty.
There are emperors and courtiers, and dynasties change constantly. This principle remains unchanged throughout the ages.
The end they were waiting for was that their homes were confiscated and sent to the army, which was no different than death.
That's the case.
Instead of waiting for death on your knees, why not stand and curse, everyone is in charge, if your head falls off and your penis is in the sky, who is afraid of who?!
"Foolish king! mediocre lord!"
"Treasonous and unethical! Usurping power and seizing the throne! Harmful to the country and the people! The crime will be eternal!"
"………………"
These red-eyed old guys were completely risking their lives, scolding them and scolding them for fear that they would not die quickly enough.
"court death!"
"Your Majesty, please kill these rebels!"
Zhu Qizhen had not officially ascended the throne, so he was still called the emperor.
Shi Heng bowed and saluted, and then he went up to kill someone with a knife, but Zhu Qizhen didn't say anything, so he naturally acquiesced.
In his opinion, in order to shock the officials, he should also see blood.
However, at this moment.
"Shi Heng, who gave you the courage to attack the cabinet bachelor?!"
Shi Heng was startled by this familiar loud shout, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a figure, although his figure looked old, his waist was straight, walking from outside Fengtian Gate. He was not wearing an official robe, but only a sparse and ordinary gentry's clothes.
However, it is not necessary to wear the crimson official robe, this face represents the identity.
"Yu Qian?!"
The moment Shi Heng saw Yu Qian, his heart skipped a beat.
Next to them, Xu Youzhen, Cao Jixiang and other masterminds of the seizure looked at Yu Qian approaching with their eyes wide open, completely in disbelief.
The thing that these people are most concerned about and most worried about is not the process of seizing the door.
According to the plan to seize the gate, they only need to rescue Zhu Qizhen from Nangong, and then escort Zhu Qizhen to Fengtian Gate, which will be considered a success.
What they care about is one person, that is Yu Qian, the most powerful military minister in the Ming Dynasty, who holds the real power of the tenth battalion of the capital.
This group of people knew very well that if Yu Qian intervened to prevent the capture, no matter how meticulous and flawless their plan was, it would all be in vain with the few people they had on hand.
Therefore, after successfully seizing the door last night, Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng immediately asked Zhu Qizhen again and again to issue an order to immediately seize Yu Qian from prison overnight, in order to avoid another accident.
They thought that their plan was seamless, that the confidentiality was 100%, and that Yu Qian was a deceiver from the beginning to the end.
But in fact, Mr. Yu just held the knife and watched their performance quietly. When the door grabbing was over, the knife in his hand was still not drawn out.
They seize the door for their own selfish gain.
Yu Qian's immobility was for the sake of the stability of the country.
When Shi Heng, Xu Youzhen, and Cao Jixiang saw Yu Qian, the first thought that popped into their minds was, how did this old boy escape from the imperial edict?
The second thought is, have the tenth battalion of troops in the capital moved?!
The highest military organs of the Ming Dynasty, the Five Military Governor's Office and the Ministry of War, are on an equal footing in terms of institutional settings.
Although Shi Heng was the Left Governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Palace and had the highest military rank in the Ming Dynasty, during the Jingtai Dynasty, due to the special existence of Mr. Yu, the balance between the Ministry of War and the Fifth Army Governor's Palace was completely broken.
In front of the Ministry of War, the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army was a scumbag who could only kneel down and obey orders. This was one of the core reasons why Shi Heng planned to seize the throne.
He wants to overthrow Yu Qian and gain military power in the empire.
Xu Youzhen's purpose is simpler, he wants to be the chief minister of the cabinet.
It is also a talent to count down the resume of this dear friend. Xu Youzhen, whose original name is Xu Cheng, strongly advocated moving south during the siege of Wala after the Tumubao Incident. He was angrily rebuked by Yu Qian in the court, and was even rated as "cunning" by Zhu Qiyu, so he was no longer accepted.
Zhu Qiyu was re-employed, but his official career stagnated.
I don’t know which magician gave this guy some advice when he was walking at night. He came to lure the golden cicada out of his shell and changed his name to Xu Youzhen. Zhu Qiyu didn’t notice it, and actually promoted Xu Youzhen to the position of Zuo Fudu Censor.
However, if you think about going higher, it is basically impossible. If you go higher, the emperor will have to check his former name, and the political review will directly cut him off.
It was precisely because of this that Xu Youzhen hated Yu Qian so much.
As for Cao Jixiang, this man who once acted as a scumbag for Wang Zhen and regarded Eunuch Wang as his idol for lifelong struggle. Five years later, he gathered a bunch of Mongolian men and prepared for a month to rebel and become the emperor, letting the aspiring people fly their dreams in the middle of the night.
eunuch.
His target at this time was the eunuch in charge of the ceremony.
These three masterminds of seizing the throne, one is for military power, one is for voting power, and the other is for approval of red power, they are really a nest of snakes and rats, they have gathered together.
On the dragon chair, Emperor Tianshun was also looking at Yu Qian. There was nothing unusual about Zhu Qizhen's expression. The capture of the gate had already progressed, Emperor Jingtai had been imprisoned by him, and all the officials were under his control.
Moreover, he had the legal support of the Empress Dowager Sun, and he was restored as the Supreme Emperor.
Even if Yu Qian mobilized ten battalions of troops and horses from the capital at this time, it would be useless.
In fact, Emperor Tianshun did not want to kill Yu Qian. After all, he had some intelligence and knew that Yu Qian had made great contributions to the country, so he helped him wipe the butt of the Tumubao Incident.
It was just Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen, and Cao Jixiang kept talking beside them. Yu Qian had supported Zhu Qiyu, the king of Xiang, to the throne, and now he planned to support Zhu Zhanyang, the king of Xiang, as the emperor.
As long as Yu Qian is alive, the throne will be unstable.
Now that everything has been said, and Zhu Qizhen felt in his heart that his successful restoration was all thanks to Xu Youzhen, Shi Heng, and Cao Jixiang's risking their lives to help, he agreed to take Yu Qian's prison overnight and prepare for it.
He will be beheaded after he officially ascends the throne the next day.
At this time, all the officials and ministers, especially Wang Wen, Chen Xun and others, all had surprise in their eyes, and they rushed towards Yu Qian in a swarm.
"Sir Yu, have the soldiers and horses from the Beijing camp been mobilized?"
Yu Qian calmly looked at Wang Shoufu and then at Chen Cifu.
In this Jingtai Dynasty, all the first and second assistants were pure scum in front of Yu Shaobao.
Facing Wang Wen's inquiry, Yu Qian shook his head expressionlessly.
"Will other troops be dispatched?"
Chen Xun also asked questions repeatedly.
What he got was Yu Qian's shaking head.
The expressions on the two people's faces instantly became as if they were mourning for their heirs.
Without troops, you come alone?
Then give me a hammer!
"Everyone."
Yu Qian glanced at the disappointed courtiers, then turned around and retreated to the left side of Fengtian Gate, kneeling down respectfully.
'This is?'
Not only Wang Wen and the court officials were confused by this operation, Shi Heng, Xu Youzhen, Cao Jixiang, and Emperor Tianshun who was sitting on the dragon throne were also confused. They didn't know what kind of medicine Yu Qian was selling.
.
"Please follow me and respectfully welcome all previous emperors to show their sage."
After saying this, Yu Qian bowed his head.
What?
Past emperors?!
Before Wang Wen and others could react, twelve figures walked out of the Fengtian Gate in a fan shape. Each one was wearing a dragon robe, and each one was holding a different style of weapon in their hands.
The mace at the head, the saber at the back, the iron whip, the bone hammer at the back, the black iron rod...
While everyone was stunned, next to Emperor Tianshun's dragon chair, Ji Boying was wearing sunglasses, with his hands in his trouser pockets, and a strawberry-flavored lollipop in the corner of his mouth, looking at the group of Ming Dynasty practitioners who were passing through the Fengtian Gate.
dragon.
'A song should be requested here, Superstar in Troubled Times.'
The accompaniment has already arisen in Ji Boying's mind.
‘The positioning is wrong again.’
In fact, it was not that Ji Boying liked to let these Ming emperors do the two-kilometer training, but that he had not been to Tianshun time and space, so he could only roughly locate the Tianshun Forbidden City, and ended up on the Inner Five Dragon Bridge.
So if you look carefully, you can see three Zhu Gaochi holding bone hammers. Their fat faces are covered with sweat and they are breathing heavily.
Ji Boying turned his head and glanced at Emperor Tianshun who was sitting on the dragon throne next to him. This Zhu Qizhen of Tianshun time and space had a not very thick beard and a ruthless look on his face.
Now he looked in the direction of Fengtianmen, confused.
The group of courtiers at the Fengtian Gate, after being stunned for a moment, all knelt down.
“We sincerely welcome the emperors of all dynasties to show their sage!”
Each and every one of them thought: Damn bad luck, damn it!
Among the emperors, Emperor Xuande, who was holding an iron rod, looked at Zhu Qizhen who was sitting on the dragon chair on the Fengtian stairs, and couldn't help but frown.
His intuition told him that the Zhu Qizhen on the Dragon Throne was very different from the Pig's Head Castle next to him.
"Father, this man looks similar to me."
The Zhubao Sect looked at Emperor Tianshun on the dragon throne with a hint of yearning. This was the domineering person he imagined, the one who dominated the world.
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Xuande shook his hand and hit him on the head with a stick.
Just then.
Reacting from his shock, Shi Heng, who was standing on the right side of Emperor Tianshun, shouted loudly.
"Where did this little thief come from? He dared to impersonate the late emperor. His crime is unpardonable. Kill him!"
After saying this, Mr. Wang Ji, who was leading the army, was stunned for a moment and was about to raise his sword.
"Wang Ji, do you want to rebel?"
Emperor Xuande glanced coldly at Wang Ji, who was in his seventies. As soon as his hand touched the knife, Wang Ji's body felt like an electric shock. In an instant, he knelt down and broke out in cold sweat.
With just one look, he was convinced that what a bullshit thief he was, he was the real Emperor Xuanzong!
Lao Zhu did not stop. After stepping through Fengtian Gate, he walked all the way towards Emperor Tianshun on the steps of the palace.
Behind him, Lao Zhu Di, Zhu Laosi, three Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji were all following closely. Only the Zhutoubao Sect covered his forehead and squatted at Fengtian Gate, groaning and shouting.
The kneeling courtiers were all staring at the Pig Head Castle Clan curiously, and the more they looked at it, the more familiar it seemed.
"What are you looking at?"
"Watch me kill you all!"
A bad word was spoken.
Wang Wen and others, who were furious with Tianshun Zhu Qizhen, had no intention of living in the first place, and they were still afraid of you being a pig.
After exchanging glances, more than a dozen people stood up and surrounded the Pig Head Castle.
"You, what are you going to do?"
Pighead, who was covering his head, subconsciously looked up, with a hint of panic in his swollen, narrow eyes.
The next moment…
The ministers of Jingtai vented all their suppressed anger towards Tianshun and Zhu Qizhen on Pig Head Fort at this moment.
At this time, on the steps of Fengtian Gate, there were Xu Youzhen, Shi Heng, and Cao Jixiang.
The three of them looked at me and I looked at you, all a little at a loss.
The reason why they are crazy is because they have soldiers at hand.
But now, the few soldiers on hand will not listen to them.
After all, these military leaders, such as Wang Ji and other famous generals, were all ministers promoted by Emperor Xuande. It was simply impossible for them to draw swords against Emperor Xuande.
and…
‘Are these guys who are suspected to be former emperors humans or ghosts?!’
The pupils of the three giants who seized the door shrank in shock. They looked at the successive emperors who were getting closer and closer, and their legs were shaking. Especially Cao Jixiang, who didn't have a faucet, and his pants got wet in an instant.
Suddenly, an amazing scene happened.
Emperor Tianshun, who was sitting on the dragon throne, stood up after a brief moment of astonishment.
He straightened his back and stood on the steps of the palace, overlooking the ancestors who were walking towards him with swords under the steps, without any fear on their faces.
"I said it."
"This world is so big, who can do anything to me?"
"Jingtai can't do it, the officials can't do it, the people can't do it, and the past emperors can't do it either."
After saying this, Emperor Tianshun grabbed the Yanling knife at Shi Heng's waist, pulled it out with a clang, and walked down the hall steps.
"Your Majesty...!"
Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng didn't have time to pull them away, and their expressions changed in shock.
‘What the hell? A lonely brave man?!’
‘After studying abroad in Wala, did you become so determined?’
Behind the dragon chair, Ji Boying, who was not paying attention, looked at the back of the lonely Emperor Tianshun with the sword in hand, and felt a little handsome inexplicably.
