Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 449

After leaving the palace, the sun had already slanted, Jiao Jing hesitated for a while, and ordered people to rush to Duke Cheng's mansion.

After taking a seat in the flower hall, after exchanging a few pleasantries, they got to the point.

"I don't know if the little father-in-law has any news about what happened on the court today?"

Although it is said that because of the Dengwen drum, the scale of officials in this court court is much larger than that of ordinary court courts.

But in the end, one must be an honorable relative or a minister of civil and military affairs above the fifth rank to be eligible to attend the hall.

As for Zhu Yi, even though the accreditation of Cheng Guogong's mansion has not fallen, he himself has no title and is only dispatched by a general who escorts him, so he is not qualified to attend the hall.

In fact, this is also the embarrassing situation that Cheng Guogong's mansion is facing now. The title has not been cut off, but when something happens, it can't take this title as a burden.

Zhu Yi, the little prince, was only called out to save face, but in reality, he was of no use in the face of the government.

However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so although it cannot go to the palace, it is still very easy to inquire about news.

Sitting in the middle of the flower hall, Zhu Yi nodded slightly and said with a sigh.

"This is natural. In fact, there is no need to spend any more effort to inquire about it. The outside world has also spread. Zhu Jian went to Oala to negotiate with the Emperor, and brought back the Oirat envoys. He was also accompanied by Yuan Bin, the school lieutenant next to the Supreme Emperor. "

"Everyone in the mission, after seeing Yuan Bin, felt guilty and had no choice but to plead guilty. The emperor was furious and sentenced the three of them to beheaded and set a date for execution. Now every yamen outside, from top to bottom, is full of insults to the mission."

After hearing this, Jiao Jing was stunned.

He had just come out of the palace, and he hadn't had time to ask more about the situation outside, but he never thought that in just half a day, the news had already spread.

But it was only a moment before he reacted.

Tingju is a game, the purpose is to put Xu Bin and others to death. This can be seen from the fact that the emperor secretly sent Zhu Jian to bring Yuan Bin back.

Since the result was already expected, how could the emperor let go of this opportunity to tarnish the reputation of the Supreme Emperor?

Those gangsters in Dongchang have everything from three religions to nine streams. Other things may be difficult, but they are good at spreading news in the streets and alleys.

However, at this time, he no longer cares about it.

After pondering for a moment, Jiao Jing first roughly relayed what happened in the Hall of Martial Arts to Zhu Yi, and then continued.

"Wala, this time, it should be really sincere to send back the Supreme Emperor. This is good news. However, Zhu Jian was transferred to Honglu Temple. What’s done is done, and it’s hard to change it.”

"For a loyal minister like Zhu Jian, the Holy Mother still values ​​it very much. Considering that Duke Xiancheng had friendship with many civil servants when he was alive, she asked me to ask the young master if there is a way to get on with Zhu Jian. In other words, turn it around, at least, you can't let such loyal and upright ministers feel cold."

After finishing speaking, Jiao Jing couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

As he said just now, they are really short of senior officials like Zhu Jian who can speak out in the court.

In particular, when Zhu Jian was transferred to Honglu Temple, although his official career was damaged for him personally, it was actually a good thing for Empress Dowager Sun. If he could win him over, at least someone would be able to speak out in the morning court up.

However, something happened in the Hall of Martial Heroes, so how to continue to contact him became difficult.

In fact, there is no other way to come to Duke Cheng's mansion to find someone.

In fact, Jiao Jing only knew that Zhu Yong made friends with many civil servants during his lifetime, but he didn't know who among them and how deep the friendship was, but there was hope, so let's try it out.

However, fortunately, after he finished speaking, Zhu Yi nodded directly and said.

"Don't worry, my son-in-law. If other people may have difficulties, they need to ask someone else, but this Mr. Zhu is not difficult."

Seeing Jiao Jing's surprise, Zhu Yi explained with a smile.

"To tell you the truth, the son-in-law, in the fifth year of orthodoxy, the Supreme Emperor ordered my father to select all military officers to study military books such as "Sun Wu Binglue" and "Courtesy of the Past Dynasties". It is necessary to choose a competent person who knows how to fight from among the civil servants. At that time, my father recommended Zhu Jian."

"Later, Zhu Jian also relied on this skill to stand out from the crowd of censors. From the ordinary seventh-rank inspector censor, he was sent to Shanxi to serve as a fifth-rank counselor. He was later promoted to the chief minister, all the way to today."

"In this way, my father is kind to Zhu Jian. Before Zhu Jian was released from Beijing, he brought gifts to visit my father in the mansion. Therefore, there is no need to ask anyone for this matter. My nephew will go there personally. , the misunderstanding can naturally be resolved."

This... the surprise came a little too fast, and Jiao Jing almost didn't realize it.

He was just holding out hope that Zhu Yi could find some relationship and talk to Zhu Jian, but he never thought that it was a surprise that Cheng Guogong's mansion had such a relationship with Zhu Jian.

At the same time, he felt once again what a correct decision it was to win over Cheng Guogong's mansion.

Although Zhu Yong died, the background of Cheng Guogong's mansion for so many years is still there.

You must know that although the Supreme Emperor ascended the throne, the British government was reused, but prosperity and dormancy are relative.

When the first emperor was alive, although he used the government of Chengguo to manage the Beijing camp, he did not alienate the government of the United Kingdom.

It was the same in the Zhengtong Dynasty. The British government was in power well, but the Chengguo government only took a back seat and did not participate much in military affairs. In many government affairs, it still had a great say.

After so many years of accumulation, Zhu Yongming does not know how many people he has supported and supported Shi En, and no one can feel the weight of the so-called "respect civil servants" before they have actual knowledge.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Jiao Jing said.

"In that case, I'll leave it to the young master. Speaking of which, I won't hide it from the young master. I'm afraid the return date of the Supreme Emperor is not far away."

"But in today's court, after Xu Bin, Xiao Weizhen and others were dismissed, almost no one is willing to speak up for the Supreme Emperor. This time, the emperor obviously wants to deprive the Supreme Emperor of the legal principles of the edict. In this way, the Supreme Emperor Even if you return to the imperial court, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to leave the palace gate with the decree."

"So, we still need to find some honest and outspoken ministers to act for the Supreme Emperor. In this way, the Supreme Emperor's words have weight, and the Chengguo Mansion will settle down as soon as possible. This Lord Zhu did not hesitate to go to Oala to negotiate alone. loyalty."

"My little father-in-law made this trip, besides clearing up the misunderstanding, whether..."

Needless to say, Zhu Yi also understood what was said later, it was nothing more than asking if she could be completely won over.

But regarding this question, Zhu Yi did not immediately agree, but said cautiously.

"My son-in-law, there is a friendship between Duke Cheng and Master Zhu, but after all, so many years have passed, and my father has passed away, it is not difficult to spread the word for the Holy Mother and resolve the misunderstanding. Frankly speaking, I am afraid that a minister of this level will not care too much about friendship."

"So, my nephew can only say to give it a try, find out first, and if it doesn't work, I can only try again later."

Hearing this, Jiao Jing was a little disappointed, but he also knew that what Zhu Yi said was reasonable, but the next moment, Zhu Yi changed the subject and said.

"However, you don't have to be depressed, my son-in-law. Since Master Zhu is willing to sacrifice himself for the Supreme Emperor, he probably won't resist too much. Besides, since my nephew knows the difficulties of the Holy Mother, I should do my best to share the worries of the Holy Mother. Not to mention, now in Beijing Among the civil servants, there are still a few who have a deep friendship with Duke Cheng's mansion."

"In the past few days, after going to Lord Zhu's mansion, my nephew also went to the adults' place to find out the bottom line, maybe I will gain something."

Jiao Jing was taken aback for a moment, and then a gleam of joy appeared on his face.

He could tell that Zhu Yi was a prudent young man. Although he was cautious in words, since he dared to bring it up.

So at least, he is sure in his heart.

Nodding his head, Jiao Jing said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay, if that's the case, then I'll trouble the little eunuch, don't worry, the little eunuch, the Holy Mother and the Supreme Emperor will definitely remember your hard work."

There was an inexplicable look in Zhu Yi's eyes, but she said modestly.

"Your son-in-law is being polite. It is the duty of a minister to share the worries of the Holy Mother and the Supreme Emperor. How dare you think about it. If you can solve one or two troubles for the Holy Mother and the Supreme Emperor, it will be my nephew's wish."

After a while, Jiao Jing gradually calmed down, more and more satisfied with Zhu Yi's attitude of knowing how to advance and retreat.

However, upon hearing his words, Jiao Jing seemed to think of something, said.

"My lord, the old man is going to the British mansion tomorrow. The Holy Mother has a few words to convey to the old man. If the little lord is fine, why don't you go with me?"

Zhu Yi was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Jiao Jing meant, but after thinking about it, he still nodded and said.

"Since the son-in-law invited me, then my nephew will accompany the son-in-law for a trip."
