Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 474 The Persistent King Bodu

Chapter 474 The Persistent King Bodu
As Li Shi's words fell, there was an awkward atmosphere in the field for some reason, and a group of Wala nobles lowered their heads, and looked at each other first if they didn't dare to meet.

After a while, Yexian finally let them go, and turned to Zhu Jian and the others.

"The matter of the tribute is my fault, but I have been reconciled with Daming for a long time. Although I am wrong about the mission, the two clans have occasional conflicts on a daily basis, but the Emperor of Ming sent hundreds of thousands of troops to the grassland to destroy our tribe, Why are you here?"

Zhu Jian sat on the side, saw Yexian interacting with other Oirat nobles, and suddenly remembered the rumors he heard at the same time.

It is said that because the tribute of the mission is very rich every year, in order to win people's hearts, they will first distribute a part of the quota to each tribe to send them on their own every year.

Regarding the increasingly large missions in recent years, there are rumors that the leaders of various tribes stuffed people in in the name of entourage, and then filled the list after entering the customs.

Now it seems that nine out of ten are true.

I have to say that Ye Xian's move was really brilliant.

The envoys and guards who went to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty are all confidantes of Yexian Headquarters. Without his laissez-faire, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to tamper with the list.

But he turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye. If something happened, it was because other tribes made their own claims.

As for Yexian, Jin can use this to provoke Ming Dynasty, and retreat can use this to buy people's hearts.

Just looking at the current scene, one can tell that, at least on the bright side, they first took responsibility for the nobles of several other tribes.

This act of showing kindness through the mouth of the envoy of Ming Dynasty can be said to be extremely ingenious.

No wonder he wasn't angry at all.

But now is not the time to think about this, so I put my mind back, Zhu Jiandao.

"Since Grand Master's ancestors, as of today, I have paid tribute to my court for more than [-] years. Grand Master's envoys have paid tribute to horses. My court has treated them with generous gifts and great kindness."

"Although there were conflicts last year over the mission, and there were occasional small battles along the border, it did not hinder the friendship between the two sides."

"Just because the treacherous official Wang Zhen monopolizes power, and likes to fight, he tricks me, the emperor, to conscript a large army, and the grand master drives to the north because he keeps the saint."

"Now I am sending you to Your Majesty. The grand master should be in line with the way of heaven and follow the people's hearts. Send me, the emperor, back to the capital, in order to reconcile. I will still send envoys, and the harmony will remain as before."

Naturally, Zhu Jian could see that even though he was showing favor just now, he also blocked the mouths of those Oirat nobles.

Therefore, he didn't argue too much about the matter of raising troops to march north, and with a few words, he put all the responsibility on Wang Zhen.

Sure enough, Yexian's complexion improved a lot immediately, and he smiled.

"This matter is only caused by villains, and I was misreported by the subordinates, so the army was mobilized, and a small matter became a big event, causing casualties on both sides. It really shouldn't be."

"The Supreme Emperor, Shengjia, I originally sent it back sincerely, but I went to Xuanfu first, and then to Datong, but you refused to send ministers out of the city to welcome me, and you refused to open the city to let me send it."

"I sent Zhang Guanbao and Yao Qian to play, but you killed him, and then I sent Ying Buhua to go again, and he didn't come back. What's the reason?"

Zhu Jian and Li Shi looked at each other, a little speechless.

This is also the first, really push an inch.

He can say such shameless words if he and others only give in a little bit.

So, Li Shi, who received the signal, stood up again with a straight face and said.

"The grand master said that he was sending him off, but the army and horses couldn't help but come in. They only came from the mountains, looting wantonly, and brought the emperor to the city with a large army. They sent him off under a false name. As soon as our officers and troops came out, they would split up and fight against each other. My court How can there be no doubt?"

"Then Yao Qian and Zhang Guanbao, who are known as the envoys sent by the Grand Master, drew more than a hundred cavalrymen with bows and arrows, plundered wantonly, and killed our officers and soldiers. Is it the envoys who did it?"

After a short pause, Li Shi's tone finally eased a little, and said.

"As for Zheying Buhua and others, because the grand master led troops to invade the south, our Ming army suffered no casualties. The father was killed, the son wanted revenge, and the brother was captured, and the younger brother also revenged. Everyone is happy to join the army."

"Besides, the grand master kept me and the emperor refused to return me. Along the border gates, there were more than [-] troops, [-] to [-], and [-] to [-]. They all fought bravely and wanted to avenge your father."

"Furthermore, the imperial court has an order that the officers and soldiers will receive a first rank and will soon be rewarded. If the envoys sent by the grand master have no trustworthiness and are not accompanied by our envoys, they may be killed by Wuliang Hadazi or the border guards in order to The reward is also unknown."

The implication is that our Ming army is strong and strong, and the soldiers are waiting for your leader to receive the reward.

If you can talk, talk, if you can't talk, fight again!
Hearing this, it was obvious that his face was a little unhappy, but he didn't attack it. After thinking about it, he asked again.

"Let's not investigate the past for now. A few months ago, you sent a mission to talk about peace talks. I sent Xining to go back with you to make a statement. Why did you kill him again?"

When this matter was mentioned, Li Shi frowned more and more, and spoke directly.

"Xining was originally an eunuch in my court. He entered the palace when he was young. Since he was a child, he has been favored by the pilgrims. He was entrusted by the emperor as his confidant. During civil and engineering battles, this person turned against each other, bewitched the grand master to plunder, and returned to Datong. Bauhinia and others."

"Such disobedient people, the imperial court has punished them clearly and formally for three days, thinking that they will be unfaithful in the future."

As the case of the mission came to an end, of course, Xining also completely lost its value, under the strong plea of ​​the courtiers.

The Ministry of Punishment finally tied Xining to the execution platform on the day after the mission's execution, using the punishment of Ling Chi, which has not been used for many years.

After three full days of execution, Xining died completely at the last breath, which really relieved the hatred of the government and the opposition.

On the day of the execution, Li Shi also went to watch. Now that he mentions this traitorous traitor, he still can't help gnashing his teeth.

As for Yexian, he originally thought that Xining was easy to use, but now that he heard that Xining was dead, and seeing the cold faces of the three people opposite him, he wisely stopped mentioning this and changed his mind.

"You are too emperor, you have a great enmity with me, you led your own army to fight with me, and the defeat fell into my hands. At that time, several people advised me to shoot him, but I refused repeatedly."

"Because he is the owner of the party, the great-grandson of Emperor Yongle, I respect Boyan Timur sooner or later, and dare not neglect him. After you killed Timur, I sent King Bodu to take care of him, which can be called preferential treatment."

"If one day, I was caught by you, would I stay for half a day?"

There was a bit of resentment in the tone of these words, as if he was complaining that Zhu Jian and others were too aggressive.

Li Shi backed away silently, and Zhu Jiangong cupped his hands.

"The grand master's benevolent heart, we will naturally know that once the emperor returns to the court, Daming and the grand master will reconcile the old relationship, and there will be no more wars, so everyone will be safe."

So, Ye Xian's face turned slow, and said.

"I wholeheartedly want to reconcile with Daming, and sincerely send it back to your emperor. I am also happy when your emperor returns, but you don't want to believe me."

"If that's the case, then I'll listen to you. Tomorrow, I'll take you to visit the Supreme Emperor first. After five days, we'll have a banquet with wine, pack your bags, and let you take the Supreme Emperor back by yourself. You can feel at ease."

Zhu Jian and the others were a little dazed. They were already prepared, and it would take several rounds of negotiations to finally reach an agreement.

Unexpectedly, in today's negotiations, although the atmosphere was a little tense, they were so relieved.

At that moment, the three of them stood up, cupped their hands together and said: "The Grand Master's move is justified."

However, just when the few of them were a little relaxed, King Bodu's eyes flickered and he asked.

"Would you like to go back to the heavenly throne when your Supreme Emperor goes back?"
