Chapter 202

Zhu Qiyu also explained the method of complete liberation: "I know that I am temporarily taking the throne, and all the lovers are also reluctant.

It doesn't matter, I will injure you first, and force him to return the Supreme Emperor quickly.

When the Emperor Taishang returns to Beijing to resettle, there is no need to change the year name. Next year you will continue to live the orthodox 15 years, and I will go back to Shandong to build my Prince Qi Mansion by the sea. "

Zhu Qiyu's words were impassioned and righteous, and no one else could find fault with her.

Moreover, it can be attacked and defended in this way. If there are many people who come out to show their loyalty, it should be regarded as observing how the ministers stand in line.If no one picks up, it's just right, when the Supreme Emperor returns to Beijing, you ministers will be outside Xizhimen, welcome the Supreme Emperor to return.

As for the Vala warriors who escorted the Supreme Emperor back to Beijing, I don't know if they would be filled with righteous indignation and suddenly go crazy and kill people when they saw the Dajingguan outside Xizhimen.

Zhu Qiyu drank the wine in the glass, and then stared at the lip marks on the glass in a daze.

And the reaction of the ministers was similar to what was expected.Wang Wen was the first to stand up to oppose the emperor's abdication, and Xu Youzhen was the second to stand up to oppose it.These are Zhu Qiyu's internal plans for the future chief assistant.

Chen Xun, Zhou Chen, Zhao Xin, Jiang Yuan, and Yu Shiyue followed closely to show their loyalty.

Then there is no more.

Zhu Qiyu has been busy for almost three months, and he can barely control the heads of the cabinet and the six ministries. As for the officials below, he has no control.

These middle- and lower-level officials didn't really want to restore the Supreme Emperor so much.Zhu Qizhen's control over the ministers is obviously stricter than Zhu Qiyu, the new king.

But there is no need for everyone to stand up and flatter the new emperor. Anyway, the law does not blame the public. Everyone sits down and watches the show together. Even the emperor can't say anything.

Waiting for the two brothers to decide the winner, everyone just knelt down and kowtowed.

After Zhu Qiyu comforted the ministers who stood up to show their loyalty, he drank another glass of wine and asked to perform singing and dancing.It's better to let the ministers watch the singing girls of the Jiaofang Division dance, otherwise the monarch and ministers will be speechless, and it will be indescribably embarrassing.

The ministers are quite welcome to this, not only saving the boredom of false politeness between the monarch and his ministers, but also drinking and watching dances for fun, but also quite contented.

It's just that after a long time, the ministers still saw that something was wrong: the emperor had been sitting on the dragon chair boringly, drinking wine sullenly.Looking at the drinks and food, they were obviously different from the ones on everyone's table. It looked like they were brought from home.

The most important thing is that although the emperor was bored, he refused to leave for a long time, as if he was waiting for something.

In this way, until late at night, Zhu Qiyu still sat firmly on the dragon chair.

Gradually, the ministers began to whisper to each other.The discussion in the hall became louder and louder, but no one stood up to stop it.

When the ministers hoped that someone would stand up and ask the emperor, they discovered another fact: no one can communicate with the emperor on an equal footing.The heads of the cabinet and the six ministries all leaned towards the emperor, sitting there like an old monk in meditation, silent.

For the rest, according to their seniority and prestige, they are not qualified to chat with the emperor.The eight ministers are outside Beijing, and there are almost no people who can block the emperor right now.

There are still a few dukes on Xungui's side, but it's a pity that they can't protect themselves, so they don't have the mood to come out and fight the emperor.

This time, Jin Ying, Xing'an, and Cheng Jing, who were temporarily serving as the chief eunuchs of Fengtian Palace, stood not far from Zhu Qiyu and waited on them.

Cheng Jing didn't speak, just doing his job well.Although he was an old member of Prince Yi's Mansion, Cheng Jing was also a Jinshi. Unlike ordinary eunuchs, he neither wanted to betray the emperor, nor was he willing to stand on the emperor's side, wholeheartedly opposing the Supreme Emperor.

Jin Ying and Xing'an did not speak. The emperor's distrust of the inner court had reached the extreme, and it was completely publicized.Just look at the emperor's self-prepared drinks that he swaggered on the table. As long as there are civil and military ministers and royal relatives with eyes present, they can tell:
The emperor would not even drink wine from the inner court, and would not even eat food from the inner court. This must be something that can only be done with suspicion of the eunuchs in the inner court.

This is a blatant slap in the face, which clearly shows that the eunuchs in the inner court are not loyal to the emperor.

Can civil servants still pay more attention to the supervisor of ceremonies, and can they still be afraid of Dongchang?Forget it, the emperor has clearly stated that you are not his loyal servants, so you don't even count as farts.

So the scene was so embarrassing. Seeing the emperor's gloomy face, no one dared to speak up.

It wasn't until the hall door was pushed open and a gust of cold wind came in that the people in the hall became more energetic again. A general in full armor with a sharp knife hanging from his waist entered the hall hurriedly, and went straight to the emperor's ear and whispered stand up.

Most of the ministers naturally didn't recognize the new commander of the Yingzhou Zhongwei Zhao Juan, and they were puzzled, and whispered even more.

After hearing Zhao Juan's report, Zhu Qiyu nodded repeatedly.The [-] dead men from Ara Zhiyuan acted as internal responders, joined forces with Yingzhou Wei and Tiance Guard, and succeeded in breaking in from the weakest point in the northwest corner of the Wala camp.

By the time Zhao Jue got the military report, the two personal guards had already gained a firm foothold in the Wara camp, and the Xiaoqi battalion and the Shenji battalion were pouring into Wala continuously from the gap opened by Yingzhou guard and Tiance guard. big camp.

The officers and soldiers of the Wala army were already exhausted, and they were suddenly attacked in their sleep. In a hurry, their fighting spirit was depressed, and they were completely unable to organize effective resistance.

After listening, Zhu Qiyu asked: "Did our army break through to Yexian's central army? Where's the granary in Wala? Where's the baggage?"

Zhao Yu shook his head: "When the last general got the report from the army, the Yingzhou Guard hadn't broken into the central army yet. Wala's granary and supplies were also near the central army, and they were not destroyed. Besides, in this weather, the granary can't be lighted either."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, expressing his understanding, and ordered Zhao Yu to investigate again.

Zhao Jue came out of the main hall, and Zhu Qiyu drank the wine again. Now is not the time to be happy. Only by breaking through Yexian's central army and forcing Yexian to flee, can the Oala army completely bomb the camp.Only then will the dust settle, and the gods will be hard to save.

Finally, some people in Xungui still couldn't sit still. Xungui's representative Fengcheng Hou Li Xian was unwilling to stand out, but Wu'an Hou Zheng Hong stood up and asked Zhu Qiyu:
"Your Majesty, has there been a change in the battle outside the city? If we take action first, then the imperial court should hurry up and discuss countermeasures instead of continuing to drink here."

Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu glanced at Zheng Hong quietly.

From the beginning of the war in Shanxi to the present, the Hou family of Wu'an has been very low-key, hardly showing their faces.

Zhu Qiyu did not take the initiative to win over this honorable family. Zhu Qiyu was quite dissatisfied with this family's possession of the title of "Wu'an", and did not make much contribution. Why are you called Marquis of Wu'an? You think you can handle it Do you live with this name?

Regarding Zheng Hong's question, Zhu Qiyu just replied coldly: "Marquis Wu'an, don't worry about it. Although I have no great skills, Wu Anmin can barely do it. With me here, the sky of Ming Dynasty will not collapse. , you can rest assured to drink and have fun."
