Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 268 He Yi drafted an imperial edict on behalf of himself
Regarding the castration of prisoners of war, the previous emperors also turned a blind eye and closed one eye.

These prisoners of war entered the palace and became eunuchs, and some were loyal to Daming, such as the famous Zheng He.There are also those who hate Daming deeply and fight back, such as Xining.

As for the batch of young eunuchs sent by Marquis Ningyang, will there be a few more Xinings among them?Hard to say.

If there is really a new 'Xining', taking advantage of the turmoil in the palace, to go up to the Empress Dowager Sun and stab her once or twice to avenge her castration, that would be bad.

But in this way, the cruel method of castrating prisoners of war should be completely eliminated.Then this new 'Xining' has done a good deed for everyone.

Zhu Qiyu discussed some political affairs with everyone, and then went back to sleep.Huang Pu and Lian Gang got into the carriage and rushed back to the capital, busy with their respective affairs.

He Yi, Xu Zheng, Huang Jian, and Yue Zheng were left to stay in the pavilion to deal with the memorabilia sent by the capital.

Although the yamen have not yet fully resumed their work, in the afternoon, a large number of urgent memorials were sent over.

Several members of Zhongshushe finished reading the memorial book one by one, and they were also very helpless.The ministers sent by the emperor were really efficient. It was only the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, and the memorial requesting the emperor to issue an imperial edict had already been handed over.

Xu Zheng and others stared at He Yi.Whether or not to show the memorial to the emperor now is up to He Yi to decide.If the emperor is furious because of this, why should he bear the blame.Who made He Yi a bachelor of Youchunfang University?

He Yi pondered for a while before replying: "You don't need to show it to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is already mentally prepared for the ministers to force the palace, and the countermeasures are probably already in the chest.

Let's not ask about this Sacred Heart's arbitrary matter, and don't bother with it.

Let's draft an imperial edict according to my orders.

Brother Ji Fang, you are Tanhua Lang, and you have the best writing style, so I will let you write it.A few of us are on the sidelines to help you as staff. "

Hearing this, Yue Zheng accepted the job without hesitation.

Yue Zheng also understood that this was He Yi giving himself face, and he wrote a letter requesting the restoration of Empress Hu, which was already greatly appreciated by the emperor.If this edict of sin against oneself is written again, then the emperor must have favored him even more.

So several people have been busy until late at night for an inexplicable sin.

Early the next morning, it was the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, and a few people got together and continued to polish it word by word.At the end of writing, several people looked at each other and laughed.

The emperor who defended the capital, saved the Ming Dynasty, and established an inexhaustible merit, even had to issue an edict of guilt after the Chinese New Year. This world is too weird.

Zhu Qiyu got up early in the morning, took his favorite concubines to the mausoleum of Empress Hu, and then returned to the room, leaning on the soft couch with his whole body relaxed, enjoying the meticulous and thoughtful service of the favorite concubines.

Some read to themselves, some fed themselves, some squeezed their shoulders, and some rubbed their legs.

The wealthy emperors and old people of Shiquan in later generations gathered together the world's famous springs, carefully weighed and compared them, and finally determined that the spring water of Yuquan Mountain was the best in the world.

Now the favorite concubines filled fresh spring water with jade wares, brewed famous tea, and delivered it to Zhu Qiyu's mouth one by one with cherry-scented lips.

Zhu Qiyu felt extremely comfortable in his heart, this is what it means to be an emperor.

With this emperor-like enjoyment and a refreshing and happy mood, I can have a sharper and more thorough thinking, and better control the complicated and complicated court situation.

After Lin Xiangyu took a sip of fragrant tea, she asked with a smile, "Husband, will we always be able to live in peace like this in the future?"

Zhu Qiyu replied angrily: "Hmph, you should be able to live a relatively peaceful life. I'll forget it. On the first day of the new year, the emperor sent me such a big surprise.

Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, so there is no peace, they still have to work.

Just wait, let's sleep late tonight and see what bad news comes. "

Lin Xiangyu continued to ask: "Can't we cut the mess quickly? We are always so worried, and it won't be a problem after a long time."

Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu became even more angry: "You think I don't want to, but how can I cut through the mess quickly? The feudal kings, the old nobles, and the civil and military officials of the middle and lower levels are basically all interested in the Supreme Emperor.

There are enemies on all sides, and I don't know who to kill.

Therefore, we must give up the idea of ​​capturing the king first after catching the thief, and let the emperor's best friends jump out slowly one by one.

Then we take the opportunity to clean them. "

"Okay, Husband, don't be angry with people like them, how about I help you get rid of the fire?"

"Okay, let's go to the fire, let's go."

Speechless for a day.

In the evening, Empress Dowager Sun and Empress Qian hosted a banquet in the Qianqing Palace for the family members and foreign relatives of the vassal princes in Beijing.

The king of Min, the king of Shu, the king of Dongwu County, as well as the brothers of the Guo family, the Hu family, and the Wu family all complained of illness and could not come.All the people who came to the banquet were the princes and relatives who were close to the emperor.

The Fengtian Hall, the Huagai Hall, and the Jinshen Hall have all been burned to the ground, so the Qianqing Palace has temporarily become a place for banquets.

At this time, King Xiang, King Qin and others were still in the capital.Originally King Xiang wanted to leave Beijing on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, but the emperor sent someone to keep him. Zhu Qiyu asked all the vassals to leave Beijing and return to the country after the Lantern Festival.

Poor King Xiang, listening to the roar of the two tigers sent by Zhu Qiyu every day, has not had a good night's sleep in the past few days.

This is the advantage that the emperor holds the rightful name, he can find a high-sounding reason to torment you, and make you suffer.

Therefore, King Xiang also very much supported Empress Dowager Sun's use of the disaster in the three halls, and asked the emperor to follow Taizong's story and issue an imperial edict for self-examination.

The same is true for other kings. The good Lantern Festival banquet has become a feast for complaining and pouring bitter water.

The emperor has no other means other than disgusting the vassal kings, so the vassal kings have the heart of not punishing the public, and they don't have too many scruples.

Empress Dowager Sun was much more cautious, at most she nodded with a smile, and did not comment on the words of the kings.

Although Wang Cheng, Shu Liang and others were not serving in the Qianqing Palace, Empress Dowager Sun also knew in her heart that the emperor's eyeliner was indispensable in this hall.

As for eunuchs, following others and changing courts are the most common operations.

After the dinner was finally over, the feudal king and his relatives left one after another. Some of the feudal kings who drank too much were cursing and venting their dissatisfaction as they walked.

It was fine at first, but why in just half a year, the orthodox emperor was suddenly captured inexplicably, and Xuanzong's lineage, which the vassal kings supported, collapsed overnight.

Then the concubine whom everyone hates, Zhu Qiyu, who even got the wrongful position as prince, suddenly transformed into a great son of heaven.

What made everyone even more angry was that Zhu Qiyu didn't become a puppet. Instead, in just a few months, he made great achievements and took control of the capital.

Moreover, Zhu Qiyu gave up sitting in the capital himself, and went to live in the western suburbs for a long time. How stable is his throne to have such confidence.

The more people thought about it, the angrier they became, and the more they thought about it, the more unwilling they became.

Just when the vassal kings had just returned to the ten princes' mansion, they lay down on the bed and hadn't fallen asleep much.Then I heard the voices of people outside, making a noise.
