The few veterans who were left behind by Mr. Ji and the prince were so angry that they wished they could rush to the south of the Yangtze River and throw Emperor Tianqi's imperial edict in his face, so that he could understand who he was...
However, several ministers were angry, but they did not lose their minds because of this. After scolding each other, they calmed down one by one and said: "This is a big matter. I can't make the decision, and I can't make the decision."
No matter what, their prince is still a minister of Apocalypse. Apocalypse... the country has been destroyed, but it has not been destroyed. The emperor of Apocalypse is still there, still alive...
"Oh, I should have killed the emperor if I had known. Now he is fine, but he is still alive, but he only causes us trouble." It has to be said that these old ministers left by the prince are not ordinary courageous, in front of everyone
He didn't shy away from it, he immediately wanted to kill the king.
Of course, they did not regard Emperor Tianqi as their king, otherwise they would not be able to say such things.
"It's just and legitimate for him to come back. We can't stop him, and we can't stop him." If he blocks it, the prince will be blamed for it. Maybe people like Nan Jinzhao and Queen Tianwu will see this opportunity and go around ruining their prince's reputation.
Their prince is going to be in that position in the future, so he can't let others ruin his reputation.
"But welcome back... How will our prince handle himself? The ministers are strong but the master is weak, and the emperor has such a temper. How can he tolerate the prince? Without the prince, can the emperor be stable? The prince finally took back the imperial city and pacified it.
After the chaos of Tianqi, we can't go back to the original situation. The people are too miserable." Before, when the world was not in chaos, Emperor Tianqi couldn't tolerate their prince, and used tricks to take Yanbei away from the prince. Now, now
…
Most of the military power is in the hands of princes. Can the emperor tolerate their princes?
If there is no tolerance, the monarch and his ministers will inevitably fight. But is the current situation suitable for internal fighting?
The world is not at peace yet, the chaos in Tianqi has only calmed down slightly, and everything is waiting to be done. At this time, internal fighting will not allow Queen Tianwu and Nan Jinzhao to take advantage?
"I'm not worried about internal fighting or not. The emperor has nothing but a name. Our prince has soldiers, power, and people. I'm afraid of what he will do, so I won't give in... The prince is fighting to the death outside to conquer the country.
, but in the end he was asked to sit back and enjoy his success. If the prince brought down the whole world, wouldn't the emperor get a big advantage? I would not be happy to ask me to kneel down to an emperor who abandons his country and his people."
The old ministers left behind by the prince quarreled, but Master Ji finally stood up and said: "Okay, okay, it's useless no matter how much we talk here. We have to write to the prince and let the prince make up his mind on this matter."
After all, Emperor Tianqi was his student. Although he was not as good as the Pope for a few days, he still had the status of a master. No matter how much he looked down on the emperor, he could not scold him too much.
If the apprentice is not good, he, as the master, has the unshirkable responsibility.
The ministers who were scolding happily also thought about this problem, glanced at Mr. Ji with very subtle eyes, and said no more...
Seeing that the young master was raised by Master Ji, and seeing that Master Ji was the prince's cheap father-in-law, they gave Master Ji some face.
Less than two days after the prince and Ji Yunkai left the imperial city, they received an urgent message from Mr. Ji. The prince took a look at it and smiled...
"What's wrong?" Ji Yunkai asked, and the prince handed the letter to Ji Yunkai, as well as the imperial edict sent by Emperor Tianqi.
Lord Ji vented all his dissatisfaction on the paper. You could feel Lord Ji's anger through the letter. Ji Yunkai took a look at it, smiled, and put it aside...
On the other hand, Ji Yunkai couldn't help but read Emperor Tianqi's imperial edict twice. After reading it, he also laughed, but it was a sarcastic smile: "Who gave him the confidence to think that we would obediently recognize him as our king?"
After issuing an imperial edict to her and the prince, the emperor really... couldn't see clearly his situation.
"There is no need to be angry with this kind of person. He just asked the people below to draw up an imperial edict. If he becomes the emperor, he will be the emperor. If not...I will be a rebellious minister and traitor." The prince is really not angry, and he doesn't feel the need to be angry.
It's just a king who has subjugated his country. Emperor Tianqi couldn't do anything to him back then, and he can't do anything to him now either.
"Your sister... Xiao Shiqing is here. Even if he doesn't care about the emperor, where is Shiqing?" Ji Yunkai knew the prince's life experience, and naturally also knew the prince's promise to the old King Yanbei.
He promised the old Yanbei King to protect Shiqing, but although he let it go due to various reasons,...
You must always do what you promise others. If Shiqing is not dead, the prince cannot ignore it.
"You can come back if you want. It's just a palace, so why not give it to him. If he wants to be an emperor, he can be enough in the palace." The prince said nonchalantly.
The reason why he went to great lengths to capture Tianqi Imperial City in order to attack the Imperial City was not for the throne. He did all this for Ji Yunkai and to find Nagaze.
If Nagaze hadn't been in Ji Xin's hands and in Tianqi Imperial City, he wouldn't have set his sights on Tianqi Imperial City at all.
Without the imperial city of Nagasawa, what else would be worthy of his attention?
"That's right...how can we, as ministers, occupy the emperor's place? The emperor wants to return to Beijing, so let's give up the place right now." As soon as the prince moved, Ji Yunkai knew that he was going to do something bad, so he laughed and said
Rather than letting the prince do it himself, he picked up a pen, dipped in ink, and wrote a letter to Mr. Ji.
Master Ji was immediately happy when he received the letter...
"Quickly, send someone to deliver a letter to the emperor, asking the emperor to return to the capital." Mr. Ji took Ji Yunkai's reply and immediately got busy, asking people to pack up the palace.
The old ministers and generals left behind by the prince were immediately angry when they heard the news. They all rushed into the palace and asked Master Ji to question him. But before they could speak, Master Ji said with a proud look on his face: "I was looking for you. Come on.
Just in time, hurry up and pack your things, the sooner the better."
"Why are you packing your things?" These veterans and generals were the first to defect to the prince, and their loyalty was only to the prince.
"Make room for the emperor and his ministers." Mr. Ji said matter-of-factly, making these old ministers and generals very angry. "You are really loyal to the emperor. At this time, you will not forget to be loyal to your emperor.
.”
"What are you talking about?" Mr. Ji's face darkened and he said unhappily: "The prince and the princess want us to pack our things and go back quickly to free up the imperial city and palace."
"What do you mean?" All the veterans and generals were immediately dumbfounded.
Your Majesty, do you really want to respect Emperor Tianqi as your master?
Do you want them to recognize such a master?
"The princess's reply... said that the palace is the emperor's home. We have driven away the outsiders, but we cannot occupy other people's homes. When the emperor comes back, this home will naturally be returned to the emperor." Mr. Ji thought of Ji Yunkai
To describe the palace as an ordinary home and completely erase the symbolic meaning of the palace makes me want to laugh...
However, it makes sense to think about it. From ancient times to the present, there has been more than just this palace. They, the courtiers, believe that this is the palace, the residence of the emperor. However, they, the courtiers, do not recognize that the palace is just...
It's just the home of a conquered king.
Wouldn't the emperor be so naive as to think that after he entered the imperial city and lived in the palace, he would still be the same emperor who was willing to take life and death?
