It's not that I'm pretending to be deaf and dumb, it's that I really have no clue.
This is simply more difficult than holding on to the capital to face Wala.
The great emperor of tomorrow has become a gadget in the hands of the Wala people.
The more they care, the more they are shackled.
Very frustrated.
It seems that the biggest talisman of Wala is not the menacing cavalry, but their emperor.
The Wala people pushed His Majesty to the front of the formation, whether their crossbows should fire or not, and whether their artillery should fire or not.
This can no longer be described as difficult.
In thousands of years of history, I have never heard of a battle in which the emperor personally led a military expedition. He had the advantage but was defeated so miserably. All the generals died and he was captured. There is no way to learn from it.
Is it possible to learn from the two emperors of Huiqin or Wanyan Gou?
Meaningless.
As King Tan said, the Ming Dynasty is not the Song Dynasty.
Chengzu moved his capital here and made up his mind to revive the Ming Dynasty.
Seeing that the officials who had just been talking eloquently about the public's rights and the mother-in-law's rights were silent at this time, Empress Dowager Sun was very angry and became more and more impatient.
These officials are not in a hurry, but she is.
"The emperor is the foundation of the country. Whether you move south or stay in the capital, you should consider the safety of the emperor."
"Is it possible for you to just let His Majesty fend for himself in Wala?"
"When the emperor is humiliated, the country is humiliated."
Empress Dowager Sun suppressed her anger and was filled with righteous indignation and grief.
"Wang Zhi?"
Wang Zhi smiled bitterly, knowing that he would not be able to escape the fate of being picked out alone.
He is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, ranking first among the ministers who stayed behind.
Before the expedition, he and many veterans tried their best to dissuade him, but His Majesty refused.
Those who followed His Majesty, those who were previously in high positions, were basically destroyed.
Then, it was time to count him.
If you take this remark, it will not only burn your mouth but also offend both sides.
It's difficult.
To be honest, regarding the disastrous defeat of Tumubao, any general other than His Majesty, no matter how meritorious they were, would never be able to atone for their sins by death.
"Queen Mother, I am also worried about Your Majesty."
"It's just that we can't be impatient at this time. We need to think about it in the long term."
"I infer that Wala Khan Totuo Buhua and the Grand Master will not harm Your Majesty yet, so Your Majesty should have no worries for the time being."
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that killing His Majesty would be tantamount to breaking up with the Ming Dynasty. From now on, it will be a life-and-death situation.
I don't have the guts yet, and I don't dare to gamble.
In all likelihood, Wala is waiting for the Ming Dynasty to redeem him.
But if you really want to redeem yourself, then the lion will open its mouth, and Ming Dynasty will become a lamb to be slaughtered.
Even if Wala collects the ransom, he may not give up.
"Long-term plan?"
"The Ai family believes that we should send envoys to negotiate peace to show our sincerity."
"With enough sincerity, Your Majesty can return."
"When the Emperor returns, Ming's crisis will be resolved as quickly as possible."
She is the Queen Mother of the Ming Dynasty.
But she is also His Majesty’s queen mother.
"What do you think, King Xi?"
"What do you think, sir?"
Zhu Qiyu: It’s not like he has to be counted.
I really want to escape, but I can't.
Empress Dowager Sun stared at Zhu Qiyu closely, obviously waiting for Zhu Qiyu to express his position.
Supervise the country, supervise the country, one sentence still carries a lot of weight.
Zhu Qiyu said warmly, "I listen to the Queen Mother and the ministers."
Yu Qian: This King Tan has shrunk back into his shell again.
on purpose?
Or was the wonderful appearance just now just a flash in the pan.
But, I have to say, this is also an excellent way to deal with it.
To put it bluntly, if you say anything wrong about this, it is like being stained with the filth in the latrine. You can't shake it off, and it still smells after washing.
Empress Dowager Sun frowned tightly again and said reluctantly, "Now, the emperor is hunting in the north, and you are supervising the country on his behalf. How can you not have your own ideas?"
"Aren't you very firm on whether to move south?"
Under Empress Dowager Sun's aggressive questioning, Zhu Qiyu felt his scalp numb and dreamed back to the time when he was first taken back to the palace.
At that time, the emperor's father was seriously ill, so he secretly confessed and entrusted him and his mother and concubine to the imperial grandmother, the Empress Dowager Zhang.
He and his mother and concubine were incompatible with this huge palace.
Overtly and covertly, he was ridiculed.
All we can do is settle down, settle down, and settle down again.
Zhu Qiyu's heart was pounding, his expression became more and more panicked, and he hesitated, "There are lessons learned from the history of the Song Dynasty, otherwise my sons and ministers would not dare to talk nonsense."
He is weak, but not stupid.
Regarding this matter, even the ministers with bright tongues shunned, let alone him.
Supervise the country on his behalf.
That pronoun was like a fire burning under him and a guillotine hanging high above his head.
Empress Dowager Sun choked out the words "not serious but not light". Knowing that today's discussion would not produce any results, she waved her sleeves fiercely and put down her bold words, "The Ai family hopes that King Tan and all the ministers will come up with a charter as soon as possible."
The figure of Queen Mother Xie gradually moved away from the Wenhua Palace.
Zhu Qiyu subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
The shadow brought upon him by the Empress Dowager Sun existed when he was young, and now it is deeply ingrained and lingering.
He could never forget the way Queen Mother Sun looked at him and his mother-in-law, as if she was looking at something dirty.
The mother-in-law has no right to be called a virtuous concubine.
After a while, Zhu Qiyu clasped his hands tightly, mustered up his courage, stopped patrolling, and repeated again, "I do not agree with the southward migration."
"For one day to supervise the country on your behalf, you will be responsible for the Ming Dynasty for one day."
"This king and the capital will live and die together."
"My lords, there's no need to argue anymore, let alone figure it out slowly and keep the green hills alive without fear of running out of firewood."
"Da Ming, we can't afford to lose this person."
"I feel that the words of the Minister and Hu Shangshu are justified."
"At this critical moment, you are all my ministers of the Ming Dynasty. The first thing you have to do is to unify your thoughts."
"My attitude is to stick to the capital, never retreat or move, and rebuild the dignity of the Ming Dynasty."
Hearing this, Yu Qian's heart felt like it was soaked in water, up and down, ups and downs.
King Tao, who has never had a good reputation, is not simple.
To live and die with the capital requires courage, courage, and even more courage.
At this moment when the elite is exhausted and the road ahead is as long as a long night, this kind of determination can stabilize the people's hearts.
"Since we have decided not to retreat or move, we are definitely not waiting quietly for the arrival of the Wara Iron Cavalry."
"We should take this time to regroup and prepare for war against the enemy."
"Soldiers, food, armor, and weapons are all top priorities."
"I wonder if you ministers have any plans?"
Zhu Qiyu continued.
The defense of the capital was completely insufficient to resist the Oara army.
If you do nothing, it is no different than waiting to die.
Yu Qian took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, I would rather be honest and die than be strict with others! I am willing to shoulder this heavy burden."
Someone must bear this burden.
Zhu Qiyu looked at Yu Qian, his eyes sparkling.
Appreciate, admire.
Among the vast majority of ministers with sad faces and secretly wiping away tears, Yu Qian was like a peerless sharp blade that emerged from the sky.
