(Thirty-four)
"Edicts from sinners, or memoirs of the first half of life, are all fine. The Ai family is not picky."
"The main focus is authenticity."
The candlelight reflected on my face, which looked like wax paper.
Empress Dowager Sun's eyes were as cold as snakes and scorpions, and she gritted her teeth, "You are not only cursing the Emperor's short life, but you also want to completely destroy the Emperor."
Sunge waved her hand, Queen Mother Sun was just talking nonsense and slandering her.
She is a person who only speaks based on facts and speaks for the truth.
"Empress Dowager Sun, do you think your words are biased?"
"The Emperor's reputation itself is in ruins, why should it be destroyed again and again?"
"As for short life?"
Sun Ge sneered. Historically, Zhu Qizhen did not live to be forty, but now he is in his twenties. Isn't it just a memoir of the first half of his life?
Seriously, this is not a curse, but a blessing.
"So, how do you choose?"
Empress Dowager Sun's people come forward to facilitate the return of Zhu Qizhen, only then can it appear that Zhu Qiyu's hands are clean.
"The weasel has no good intentions when it wishes the chicken New Year greetings."
"What are you planning with His Majesty again?"
Queen Mother Sun was worried and wavering.
In her dreams, she was looking forward to Zhu Qizhen's return from Oara.
Return to see the emperor, the emperor is sitting in the bright hall.
Only when Qi Zhen returns to the capital will anyone follow him.
Seeing the hesitation in Queen Mother Sun's eyes, Sun Ge struck while the iron was hot, "As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."
"As for the edict to punish oneself, it is not uncommon in all dynasties."
"Looking back to ancient times, Dayu saw that the people's hearts were distracted and he blamed himself."
"Emperor Liu Heng of the Han Dynasty, who is known as the ruler of Wenjing, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who created the prosperous age of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who ruled the Zhenguan period, all issued edicts to punish themselves."
"The Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's Luntai Sinji Edict is still familiar to this day."
"The edict to sin is also a sign of daring to take responsibility. There is no need for Empress Dowager Sun to reject it so much."
As for the memoirs of the first half of his life, the most famous one is undoubtedly The Last Emperor.
Queen Mother Sun's face turned black and white, and she felt that this was the most harsh and advanced mockery.
As Qi Zhen's biological mother, she did not dare to compare Qi Zhen with these people.
"Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, also issued an edict to punish himself. The Jin soldiers approached Tokyo. They blocked the way and flattery was heard every day. They were sycophantic and monopolized power, and corrupt officials succeeded. Taxation drained the people's wealth, and the military service sapped the strength of the army."
"Why don't you mention his sins?"
Sunge ignored Empress Dowager Sun's barbed sarcasm, "Because of bad luck."
"As long as you agree to Zhu Qi's imperial edict, the Ai family will persuade Qi Yu to agree to the emperor's request."
"There is no such thing as a free lunch."
"The Queen Mother Sun is in a whirlpool and stirs up troubles throughout her life. She should understand this truth."
Sunge calmly waited for Queen Mother Sun to think.
She had put down the hook and bait.
In this world, no fish can refuse bait, especially if it is the bait that suits them.
As expected, Empress Dowager Sun relented.
"Then you have to ensure that the emperor returns to Beijing safely." Empress Dowager Sun stared at Sunge unblinkingly.
Only when you come back will you have hope.
Sunge's eyebrows were crescent, "The Queen Mother can personally choose someone she trusts to go outside the customs to welcome the return of the Emperor."
"The day when the emperor has sent an edict to the capital to tell the world that he has sinned against himself is the day when the envoys leave the capital."
"Is it fair?"
Empress Dowager Sun's people failed to protect the criminals who returned to Beijing. What does it have to do with her and Zhu Qiyu?
"Can your Majesty personally greet the Emperor at Juyongguan?"
"Since ancient times, etiquette has been noble and generous. There is no one more noble in the world than Your Majesty."
Empress Dowager Sun fought for her without giving up, and even flattered her with her words and her heart.
Sun Ge raised the corner of his mouth in a perfunctory and indifferent manner, "The dung beetle yawned loudly. The chicken feathers weighed on the weighing plate. I don't know how many pounds or taels it is."
"Is he worthy?"
"Is it the Ai family and His Majesty who begged Zhu Qizhen to return to Beijing?"
"When you said this, you didn't even think about whether he was worthy? There may not be a mirror in the tiled tent, but there is one in your palace, right?"
"If that doesn't work, I can just take a photo in Gong's bucket."
"Why don't all the people of the capital come together to welcome the emperor's disgraced return to the capital? Wouldn't that be more impressive and impressive?"
Queen Mother Sun was panting heavily and her body was shaking slightly, obviously she was stimulated again.
"vulgar!"
"vulgar!"
Sun Ge raised his eyebrows and said, "Shameless."
"Okay, please give me a nice word."
"They are all queen mothers for a time, grinding and grinding, losing their status."
After a while, Queen Mother Sun's fluctuating mood slowly calmed down.
"Can."
"But the Ai family will personally summon the envoy who has been entrusted to go outside the pass."
Sunge nodded.
The worst she could do was go out of the palace herself and kill Zhu Qizhen.
With her around, Zhu Qizhen is truly dead and without life.
If she takes action, Zhu Qi Zhenhui won't even have a decent way to die.
Falling from a horse and drowning is too childish. What could be more alarming than a huge stone falling from the sky to kill an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust sinner.
Best of all, you can also carve words on boulders.
She was familiar with the carvings on the stone, and there would be absolutely no mistakes.
"Then hurry up."
Sunge seems to have stepped on the hot wheel and is eager to try.
Queen Mother Sun:...
Sunge carried the food box and Shi Shiran left Renshou Palace.
Tonight, the moonlight is very beautiful.
…
On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the court resumed.
When old things are brought up again, the emperor feels guilty and issues an edict to reflect on his sins, to reflect on himself, to ease conflicts, and to comfort the deceased.
Accompanying Sin Ji Zhao to Beijing was Wala Yuan's peace treaty, which was returned to the emperor unconditionally.
Taking this opportunity, the courtiers discussed welcoming the emperor.
Even Wang Zhi clearly stated the etiquette of family relations and asked to please the emperor.
Zhu Qiyu sat steadily on the dragon chair, not participating, not enthusiastic, not expressing his position, just quietly waiting for the results of the discussions among the ministers.
The Queen Mother said that the proposal was not his, and the decision was not his, so she would not blame him for her death.
Seeing that Zhu Qiyu looked calm and neither sullen nor angry, some ministers took advantage of the situation and quietly focused their discussion on the etiquette they should use to welcome the emperor back.
Officials from the Ministry of Rites gave a welcome plan in just a few words.
From beginning to end, Yu Qian was watching with the same cold eyes as Zhu Qiyu, staying aloof and saying nothing.
All capable ministers look forward to meeting the Ming Lord and creating a prosperous age.
If the master is incompetent, then the ministers will have the courage to think that the master will bow down, and the ministers will fail together.
Yu Qian was a new member of the imperial court and rebuilt the capital camp. He knew better than anyone the losses caused by the Tumu Fort Incident.
Now that his position has been decided, for the sake of the stability of the world, he will not change his mind at both ends.
unless……
Unless choosing the emperor is better for the Ming Dynasty.
It's a pity that he is not blind yet.
Zhu Qiyu bent his index finger slightly and tapped the table in front of him gently. "Since the ministers have already made their judgments on whether to welcome the emperor back, and they have considered it carefully, I will follow it."
"I just have something to say about the welcome and return ceremony of the Ministry of Rites."
"Since the Emperor has issued an edict that has sinned against him, he must be deeply regretful. Wouldn't it be contrary to the Emperor's wishes to raise troops and mobilize a large number of people?"
"I also hope that all your ministers will not make things difficult for the emperor."
Come to court quickly, he also ordered people to copy and post Zhu Qizhen's edict on sin.
Thinking of his mother's request to leave the palace, Zhu Qiyu's face became more sad.
