Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 361 Farting hits his heels!
There is a well-known depraved literati named Brother Xun in the hall of Zhongyuan. His mouth would be stuffed with cold water, and his heels would be hit when he farted.

Brother Xun’s famous words are perfect for Mustafa at this time—the blood on Mekhail’s neck has not been wiped clean, and Mustafa’s ass has not wiped Sudan’s body. The throne was warm, and turmoil began in the city of Istanbul.

The turmoil came from the traditional conservative nobles who supported Mustafa and the reformist nobles who supported Selim III.

Before Mustafa went to Topkapi Palace, or before Aliti, the commander of the Ottoman Kapkulu Cavalry Corps, surrounded Mustafa and went to Topkapi Palace to seize power, Ottoman’s traditional conservative nobles They were the targets of suppression by Selim III, and these traditional and conservative Ottoman nobles had long been dissatisfied with the status quo.

When Aliti surrounded Mustafa and went to the Topkapi Palace to seize power, these Ottoman traditional conservative nobles who were no longer willing to tolerate it erupted like a volcano.

And those innovative nobles who supported Selim III's reform of Ottomans became the targets of traditional conservative nobles.

This kind of struggle involving beliefs and political lines is only life-and-death cruel and cannot tolerate any hesitation and compromise. Naturally, the innovative nobles are not willing to let it go, and they are not willing to see Mustafa, who opposes innovation, sit in the sultan and caliphate. on the throne.

When the news that the two parties were filming in Istanbul reached the Topkapi Palace, Mustafa was immediately stunned.

It is true that Mustafa wants to become the Sultan, and it is true that he is more traditional and conservative, but this does not mean that Mustafa wants to see turmoil in Istanbul.

Especially when Selim III had just abdicated and he had not yet held his enthronement ceremony.

This turmoil is tantamount to someone slapping Mustafa in the face and mocking him: Look, the stability during Selim III's period is broken, and the entire Ottomans will fall into turmoil. Everything is triggered by your actions!You are not as good as Selim III!
Thinking of this terrible scene, Mustafa's face slowly turned red, and he looked at Aliti, the commander of the Kapkuru Cavalry Corps, with anger in his eyes: "Send someone to calm down immediately. All this, immediately!"

However, what Mustafa did not expect was that Aliti did not immediately obey orders as he did when facing Selim III in the past, but justified after slightly bowing and stroking his chest: "Sultan, the one who appeared in the city The turmoil was spontaneously initiated by those people, and if we want to quell it all, we can only send troops to suppress it—and this will cause more bloodshed for the nobles in Istanbul.”

The grand vizier Ozgul also saluted his chest, and said: "Let them go, Sultan, those nobles who have already killed their eyes are irrational at this time, and sending troops to suppress them at this time is also irrational." Not a good way."

Mustafa clenched his hands into fists, and shouted angrily, "Then just watch the turmoil in Istanbul, and watch a large number of civilians get hurt?"

Aliti shrugged indifferently, and said: "You can rest assured, respected Sultan, our Ottoman nobles are all good nobles with quality, morality, and cultivation. They will control the scope of the battle." Between nobles and nobles, those commoners will not be involved."

Mustafa sat slumped on the chair as if all his strength had been drained.

With things developing to such an extent, how could Mustafa fail to see that these traditional and conservative nobles were simply using themselves as weapons?
Perhaps, for the traditional and conservative nobles headed by Aliti, it doesn't matter who sits on Susu's throne, the important thing is that as long as they can support them to return to the traditional and conservative line, they can get more benefits .

They didn't take their Sudan seriously at all!

Thinking of this, Mustafa simply laughed at himself, and said to Aliti, the commander of the Kapkuru Cavalry Corps, and Grand Vizier Ozgul, "Let's go back first, I'm tired, Hopefully tomorrow will settle this down."

Aliti and Ozgul looked at each other, then bowed together and said: "Please rest assured, Sultan, the sun will rise as usual tomorrow."

But before Mustafa returned to the palace where he was resting, the attendant he sent to look after Selim III hurried over, shouting as he ran, "It's not good, Selim Dan wants to kill himself by drinking poison!"

Mustafa's already bad mood became even worse after hearing the news.

When Mustafa hurriedly arrived at the palace where Selim III was imprisoned, the table was already full of food and drink, and a group of attendants were staring at Selim III, for fear that he would rush over Drink the poisoned wine.

With a gloomy face, Mustafa smashed the wine glass full of poisoned wine and looked at Selim three times: "Since you have sworn allegiance to me, why are you trying to drink the poisoned wine?"

At this time, Selim III had calmed down, and he just chuckled when he heard the words, went to the table and sat down and said to Mustafa: "Now you have become a sultan, those who support you are conservative The nobles should be very happy, right? Let me guess, should they attack the revolutionary nobles in Istanbul now? Then, they should let you sign a contract with Sand Goose, and then free up their hands to attack Ming country?"

Before Mustafa could answer, Selim III chuckled and shook his head, as if he was asking himself a question and said, "No, they have the guts to attack the reformist nobles, and they also have the guts to ask you to sign an agreement with Shah. Goose's contract, but they don't have the guts to target Ming."

"Then next, they should find a way to clean out all the reformers, and then find a way to kill me and Little Mahmud, so that the entire Ottomans will completely retreat to the traditional and conservative line. They will work hard to promote the words of the true god, so that Get more benefits for them."

"As for Osman's death..."

Selim III looked at Mustafa and smiled, then asked, "Who cares?"

Seeing Selim III's smile full of inexplicable sarcasm, the frustration in Mustafa's heart suddenly became stronger, and he seemed to have lost all energy, and sat down on the ground slumped.

It was not until after a while that Mustafa said, "You guessed it right, they did attack those revolutionary nobles, and Istanbul is now in turmoil."

Mustafa couldn't figure out why things turned out the way they were now.

In Mustafa's mind, whether it is the traditional conservative nobles who refuse to reform, or the innovative nobles who want to reform with Selim III, both sides should be for the betterment of Ottoman.

Even if the two sides disagree, they should each find a way to persuade the other. Why choose the way of direct filming?
This will hurt the entire Ottoman!
Seeing the slumped Mustafa, Selim III just chuckled lightly and didn't say anything more.

The thing is obvious, those traditional and conservative aristocrats only want to get benefits from their own pockets. What they care about is their own interests, not Ottoman's interests.

As for those reformed nobles who are biased towards themselves... How many reformed nobles will there be in Osman after today?
Even if some people want to support themselves to regain the throne of the Ottoman Sultan, it is probably for their own interests, not for the interests of Ottoman like those reformers, right?

Thinking of this, Selim III laughed at himself and shook his head slightly, but he ignored Mustafa.

Mustafa was also very unhappy in his heart, looking at Selim III and said: "Look, I will let them calm down all this and make Osman stronger again, and you, you should be alive , to see all this with my own eyes!"

Selim III laughed and said, "Mustafa, if you can break a wine glass once, can you break all the wine glasses in the Topkapi Palace?"

Mustafa did not directly answer Selim III's question, but directly ordered to the attendants around him: "From now on, don't let Selim have the opportunity to touch the wine glass and poisoned wine!"

After the attendants around him bowed and agreed, Mustafa took a deep look at Selim III, and left the palace where Selim III was imprisoned angrily.

Mustafa felt that he should calm down and think about it, and think about how to restore Osman's calm again, how to twist all the nobles into one rope, and make Osman become stronger again.

However, the following script did not go according to Mustafa's setting, but developed according to the setting of the commander of the Kapkuru Cavalry Corps, Aliti, and Grand Vizier Ozgul. The inferences made by King Mu III have also been fulfilled one by one——

Aliti and Ozgul proposed that the war with Sand Goose should be ended as soon as possible now, on the grounds that Osman has suffered enough damage now, and the war should not continue.

As for the signing of an armistice agreement with Sand Goose that may lead to a series of consequences such as ceding land and compensation for Sand Goose's military expenses, Aliti and Ozgul said that these are not problems, even if the treaty signed with Sand Goose loses power and humiliates the country It doesn't matter, anyway, there are still those treaties signed between Mekhail and Daming.

In contrast, what Ottoman should do now is to cleanse those Ottoman nobles who want to follow Selim III to innovate.

No, they are no longer worthy of being called nobles, they are Kafiles who betrayed the true God, they should be sent to Hell!
What made Mustafa even more angry was that when these traditional and conservative nobles found him and expressed their support for his ascension to the Sultan throne, they kept saying that under the leadership of Mustafa, they would gradually correct Sely. Ms III made the mistake.

And after Mustafa ascended the throne of Sultan, these traditional and conservative nobles seemed to have collectively revised their memories, and directly overturned all the reforms set by Selim III, directly allowing Ottoman to return to the Sultan's throne. The state of the supremacy of the true god-but they disrespect Mustafa, the new caliph!

In the process of "breaking" Selim III's wine glass time and time again, and being slapped in the face by those traditional conservative nobles time and time again, Mustafa's inner thoughts gradually changed.

It seems that Selim III was better when he was Sultan?
It seems that Selim III's reform is correct, but the traditional conservative nobles are wrong?
Brother Xun, a degenerate literati at the entrance of the Central Plains, once said that once the seeds of doubting life are planted, they will grow wildly and become a towering tree.

Mustafa, who had just ascended the throne of Sultan, began to doubt his life. Selim III, who had just stepped down from the throne of Sultan, was busy committing suicide. The entire Ottoman court fell into an extremely strange state of chaos.

However, more confusion is yet to come.

The armistice treaty signed with Sand Goose allowed the reformist commander Alemdar Mustafa Pasha stationed on the Danube to breathe, but the traditional conservatives headed by Aliti and Ozgul actually thought Deprive Alemdar Mustafa Pasha of his military power, and then send Alemdar Mustafa Pasha to Hell.

Aliti and Ozgul's actions completely annoyed Alemdar.

Alemdar was already very dissatisfied when he learned that Aliti and Ozgul supported Mustafa to usurp the throne and seize power, but he had to choose to endure because of the eyeing sand goose army.

Well now, Ottoman and the Sand Goose have signed an armistice treaty, the Sand Goose army is no longer a danger to Ottoman, and a large number of innovative nobles who were suppressed by the traditional conservative nobles have also secretly turned to Alemdal.

Alemdar simply did not do anything, and directly led his army to attack Istanbul, intending to support Selim III to regain the throne of Sultan.

In this way, Osman became even more lively.

The reason why Aliti and Ozgul were able to become the pillars of the traditional conservatives and supported Mustafa was because Aliti controlled the Ottoman Kapkulu Cavalry Legion, and Ozgul, the grand vizier, also Mastered most of the officials in the Ottoman court.

However, Aliti's position as the commander of the Ottoman Kapkulu Cavalry Corps mainly depends on the support of his family and traditional conservative nobles, not because he is so good at fighting.

At the very least, his battlefield command ability is far inferior to that of Alemdal.
