Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 453: My Colleagues' Fortune-telling and Gong Let the Solitary Bet Su Wang Xianma Emperor Reciprocate
The more Zhu Qizhen thought about it, the more he felt that his plan was perfect, and the only problem now was to judge his younger brother's condition.

So Zhu Qizhen ordered: "Call your colleagues in."

Hearing this, Ruan Lang hurried out of the hall to help his colleagues in.

After the colleague finished the salute, Zhu Qizhen couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Tong, Chen Xiang and Marquis Wu Qing have told you what I want to ask, right?"

"Yes, yesterday was an auspicious day for the zodiac, and the old man has already made a divination."

"Oh? How about the hexagram?"

"Returning to Your Majesty is an auspicious omen. The old man has already calculated three years ago that His Majesty should return to Beijing in autumn and restore in autumn."

Zhu Qizhen asked suspiciously: "But July is still summer, right?"

The colleague smiled and said: "The old man deduced from the hexagrams yesterday that although today's condition is serious, he can still serve as a director. After September, the condition will deteriorate to an irreversible level.

Therefore, why bother to bear the name of killing the emperor, even if he succeeds in seizing the door, all he needs to do is arrange the emperor properly, and when he dies, the autumn will be bright and refreshing, and it will not be too late for his majesty to restore him. "

Zhu Qizhen nodded: "Mr.'s words are very kind, and in this way, everything is on the right track. Sure enough, I should return to Beijing in autumn and restore it in autumn.

Has Marquis Wuqing prepared everything properly? "

The colleague replied: "Return to Your Majesty, everything is ready. Wu Qinghou raised his troops on the day of the banquet for the vassal king, and led the Jingying army to attack the capital from Chaoyang Gate.

Then the troops were divided into three groups, all the way to surround the Old Qi Palace, all the way to support the imperial city, and all the way to seize Xizhimen and Deshengmen to prevent the emperor's reinforcements from entering the city. "

Zhu Qizhen shook his head: "It doesn't have to be like this, Marquis Wuqing can lead the Beijing army to divide into two groups, one way to attack the old Qi palace, the side of the Qing emperor; all the way to seize Xizhimen, Deshengmen, and Fuchengmen, and block the emperor's reinforcements.

In the imperial city, there are at least 1 servants led by Cao Qin, Wu Jin and others, plus the guards of the feudal king.Coupled with most of the Jinyiwei, it is enough to control the palace.

You tell Marquis Wu Qing, don't disturb the people, don't kill officials, everything is for the purpose of capturing the emperor alive and controlling the capital.

In particular, you must never kill the king in public, otherwise you will kill yourself, and even I can't help it. "

The colleague quickly agreed.

Zhu Qizhen also promised: "Unless things are done, I will advance Wuqinghou to be the Duke of Zhongguo. For the rest of the generals, those without a title will be awarded a title, and those with a title will be promoted to a higher level.

I will not hesitate to reward all the meritorious soldiers. "

Hearing this, the colleague hurriedly kowtowed on behalf of Shi Heng to thank him.

The two sides discussed many details, and the colleague just bowed and resigned.

……

However, Mrs. Wu's personal maid, Mrs. Xiang, was conferred the title of Mrs. Rongshan by the Jin Dynasty today. She is really overjoyed.

After lunch, Mrs. Xiang left the palace and came to the ceremonial room.

The etiquette room is located in the west of the palace, next to Dong'anmen, and it is a place set up by the inner court to teach etiquette for palace people.

Now it is used to arrange the show girls who are going to Beijing to be selected.

And Gongrang the emperor's nanny, Mrs. Li, Zuosheng's wife, was sent to manage these beautiful girls.

Mrs. Xiang came to Mrs. Li's room and saluted lightly with a smile.

Mrs. Li asked curiously: "You little girl, but you have climbed up a high branch and your wings are stiff. Why don't you kneel when you see me?"

Mrs. Xiang smiled and said: "The servant girl was conferred the title of Mrs. Rongshan by the emperor today. Your old man is the first-rank wife, and the servant is the second-rank lady.

The servant girl respects you the most in her heart, but the court system is not good or bad. "

Mrs. Li said with a smile: "That is indeed a happy event. Now that even this little girl is promising, she is really a fearsome future generation."

Mrs. Xiang approached Mrs. Li, and told the emperor's edict, and also said that Princess Qi wanted to entertain the beautiful girl.

Mrs. Li nodded, and ordered her servants to call all the beautiful girls to the courtyard.

These show girls, a total of 300 people, are the best selected by the provinces.

Originally, these women were a little proud, but now that they were about to become the emperor's women, they were all big-eyed and empty-minded, with no dust in their eyes.

If it weren't for Li Shi's first-rank orders, they really couldn't be restrained.

Even Mrs. Li could barely suppress it.

Even Mrs. Xiang couldn't help shaking his head when he saw this. These bastards have a good skin, and they are far worse than their own concubines.

Only Li Shi shouted loudly: "Your Majesty ordered you to kneel down to receive it."

Only then did the show girls huff and kneel down.

Mrs. Li said: "I have a disease, and human nature is difficult. You will be a concubine in the palace, but the years are wasted. The sincerity of being loyal to the emperor and serving the saints is appreciated by the widow.

You can get one hundred taels of silver and ten bolts of brocade, and go home. "

When the girls heard the words, they immediately exploded the pot.What is this called? After going through ups and downs and layers of screening, everyone finally broke out of the siege. When they came to the capital, they finally had the opportunity to be the emperor's woman. Now you want us to go back?

The most influential woman among these women is from a distant relative of the Sun family.

The daughter of the Sun family immediately stood up and asked back: "Dare to ask Madam, is His Majesty's oral order forcing us to leave, or is it a voluntary choice for us?"

Mrs. Li replied very positively: "Choose voluntarily. Moreover, Princess Qi wants to show her kindness as a landlord, so I ordered me to tell everyone that the princess will hold a banquet at Prince Qi's mansion to invite everyone."

After hearing the words, Mrs. Sun asked again: "As the saying goes, there is no good banquet. Is there a rule that Princess Qi must go to this banquet?"

Mrs. Li is on the side of the emperor respectfully, so naturally she would not speak for Princess Qi, so she said with a cold face: "It's up to you whether you go or not, Princess Qi just wants to take care of the emperor. If you go, if you can To be favored by Princess Qi naturally has innumerable benefits."

Sun snorted coldly: "We were selected by the imperial court, and then naturally the Ministry of Rites will preside over the re-election, so how can we give and receive in private.

Please excuse my physical inconvenience, I won't be able to go in the future. "

Normally speaking, among the 300 people, 50 women should be selected to become the emperor's women, one of whom will be the empress and the other two will be concubines.

But this time the Ministry of Etiquette is very hard-working, and it is necessary to choose one queen, two imperial concubines, four noble concubines, and sixteen concubines.

The reason why the Ministry of Rites was so radical was because the emperor forced them to do so.

The emperor forcibly snatched the titles of twelve imperial concubines from the favored concubines, and there were three other concubines of Qi.

If the Ministry of Rituals is not more radical, then apart from the selected empress, the rest of the women are simply not enough to look at in front of the emperor's favorite concubine, so how can they compete for favor?

But this leads to a serious problem, because of this, all the three hundred beautiful women have higher hearts than the sky, after all, everyone has the potential to become a queen.

Even if you can't become a queen, it would be great to become an imperial concubine, and an imperial concubine is also a king.Although she can't be the mother of the world, she can still look down on the females.

Especially the Sun family in front of him has already been appointed internally.It is definitely not feasible to be a queen, but the position of imperial concubine is not a problem at all.

So in Sun's view, he is more noble than the so-called Princess Qi, so naturally he doesn't need to show face.The majestic concubine, do you still need to rush to accept the shaming of the prince and concubine?
The other beautiful girls also had the same idea. Driven by Sun's encouragement, they rejected Princess Qi's invitation one after another.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Xiang secretly rejoiced that the emperor and his favorite concubines were deflated, which is really a happy thing to hear.So the two dismissed the show girls, and Xiang went back cheerfully to send someone back to life.

But he said that the colleague returned to the mansion and recounted the process of interviewing the king to Shi Heng and Shi Biao in detail.

Shi Hengdang even ordered Shi Biao to write to the emperor, requesting that the Beijing army be transferred to Shanxi to suppress the civil uprising.

June 24, early in the morning.

When Zhu Qiyu got Shi Biao's playbook, he was immediately delighted: "This Shi Biao is really cooperative. I just transferred the Beijing Army back from Datong, and he will be transferred back again in a blink of an eye.

All right, the widow followed his wish and ordered the Beijing army in Tongzhou to perform martial arts outside Chaoyang Gate on the first day of July. After feasting the vassal princes, the widow went to the Chaoyang Gate for a military parade.

After the military parade, Shi Biao can take the Beijing Army to Datong to take office. "

After Suxi finished writing the edict, she immediately began to sue again: "Husband, look, those beautiful women not only didn't give us face, but also buried us well and demoted us to nothing. All the words of demon concubine harming the country Out."

"Okay, okay, what are you doing competing with these stupid women, anyway, they don't have a few days to live, let them go."

Suxi nodded, and then replied: "The British Duke has already taken the King of West Wu County to Beijing, and King Su has also arrived, and now the King of Shu who has traveled the farthest is missing.

According to Jin Yiwei's report, the King of Shu will arrive in the capital within three days at most.

Also, when King Su came to Beijing, he brought five hundred horses as a gift to his husband, and the servants had allocated the horses to Yingzhou Wei.

How to return the gift, please show me your husband. "

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Change Zhuang Langwei back to Ganzhou left guard, and re-split Ganzhou right guard from Ganzhou vanguard and Ganzhou defender.

Return all the Ganzhou left guards and Ganzhou right guards to King Su, plus the Ganzhou middle guards he had kept, a total of three guards, and re-arrange him. The widow is generous enough this time. "

Suxi replied: "My husband's situation is really big, there are 5000 guards in Zhengding, plus more than 1 troops.

Adding up the three guards, a total of [-] elite troops could be formed.It's hard for my husband to really dare to hand over so many troops to King Su. If it was replaced by Xuanmiao or the emperor, he would have been so scared that he couldn't sleep. "

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "King Su is just a special case, in order to control the Hexi Corridor and the Hetao Plain, this has to be done.

Other vassal kings don't have such good treatment. I can't let every vassal king have an army of [-], so we don't have to live. "
