What Zhu Qiyu didn't expect was that the warriors at the scene would respond to his call.
Some of these people have had their fields embezzled, some have been framed, and some have fallen into bandits, to name a few.
In the end, Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to wave his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, and then ordered his personal guards to call Xu Zheng and others out.
Since there are so many people with so many grievances, let's write a complaint.
Zhu Qiyu ordered several people from Zhongshushe to write down everyone's names and requests in detail. In the next two days, he would spend a whole day to interview them and deal with them one by one.
After finally calming everyone down, Zhu Qiyu walked back to the concubine. At this time, the nobles themselves had already stood up.
Zhu Qiyu did not show any courtesy, but secretly smiled in his heart: Since you nobles are well-informed and have experienced so many great scenes, I will give you something new in a moment.
Just as he was thinking about it, two carriages had already driven over. The coachman saw so many people outside the door, many of whom looked like respectable people from a distance, so he stopped at a distance.
Two couples in their forties or fifties got off the carriage. Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu hurriedly supported the concubine and stepped forward quickly. First, he supported brothers Huan, Hu Xuan and their wives who were about to salute, then bowed deeply and called them uncle and aunt affectionately.
That's all. The nobles can still accept it. However, after saluting and saying hello, Zhu Qiyu supported the concubine and stepped aside to make way for her. Lin Xiangyu and the concubines came forward and knelt down with a roar, and they all said hello to their uncle and aunt.
This frightened the nobles. Everyone could understand the emperor's bow, but it was a bit too much for the concubines to kneel down collectively.
You must know that among the women in the world, except for the Empress Dowager Shangsheng, Concubine Xuanyi, Princess Yongjia, and the two empresses, among the rest, the emperor's beloved concubines in front of you are the ones with the highest status.
Even if the Queen came in person, quite a few of these beloved concubines would not kneel down.
The scene before his eyes made it clear that the emperor had given orders to treat Huan and Hu Xuan as uncles.
Then everyone doesn’t understand. Huan is the elder brother of the deposed Empress Jingci, and Hu Xuan is the younger brother of Jingci. They have been disliked for a long time. They are not even an earl, but they are already regarded as relatives. A marginal figure among marginalized figures.
People no longer even regard the two Hu brothers as relatives.
But obviously, the emperor didn't think so, and the new king's absurd behavior was committed again.
However, Zhu Qiyu's family didn't care what the nobles thought. The concubine took Huan's wife on her arm, and Lin Xiangyu took Hu Xuan's wife on her arm, and walked to the mansion affectionately. Zhu Qiyu politely gave way to Huan and Hu Xuan to the mansion. As for the nobles, they were simply left alone.
After crossing the line of nobles, Zhu Qiyu suddenly turned back and smiled at Zhang Zhong: "The British Lord, come with me. I have something to tell you."
Zhang Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly followed the emperor into the palace.
In fact, Zhu Qiyu had nothing to say to Zhang Zhong. It was just that in order to save Taizong, Zhang Yu, the king of Hejian, still went against the trend, rushed back to the enemy's formation, and died fighting to the death even though he was out of danger.
Even though decades have passed since the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Qiyu still misses Zhang Yu's feelings.
As for the other nobles, go and play. Who are you? I am the emperor of tomorrow, and I have to serve you like my ancestors. I make it seem like you have saved my great-great-grandfather. Are you embarrassed?
The group came to the main hall, and Zhu Qiyu very politely asked Huan to sit down. Huan was so flattered that he couldn't refuse, so he sat down carefully.
Until Lin Xiangyu personally served tea to everyone, several members of the Hu family were still in a state of confusion.
Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu smiled and comforted him: "Uncles, don't be nervous. As soon as the Wala army retreats, I will immediately carry out a large-scale reward for the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
At that time, I will return the marquis and the earl that should belong to my eldest uncle to my two uncles.
Please don’t blame me for being stingy, uncle. According to the Ming Dynasty’s ancestral system, it is too stressful to grant two marquisships to a relative’s family. I can’t do it for the time being.
But I can make arrangements for my second uncle in the future. Being granted the title of Marquis is not a problem, it just has to wait a few years. "
After hearing this, the two brothers Hu Xuan and Hu Xuan couldn't believe their ears. Huan confirmed very carefully: "Your Majesty said that you want to make me a marquis and your second brother a count?"
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "I have already thought about the titles. I will designate my eldest uncle as Ping'enhou, my second uncle as Lechengbo, and in the future I will designate them as Lechenghou."
Hu Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this. He stood up and was about to kneel down, but was held tightly by Huan.
Hu Xuan asked curiously: "Brother, why are you pulling me?"
Juan, the eldest brother, has read more than Hu Xuan, and naturally knows more allusions than Hu Xuan. He immediately ignored Hu Xuan and asked Zhu Qiyu in a trembling tone:
"Your Majesty, you want to make me the Marquis of Ping'en and your second brother the Marquis of Lecheng in the future. Is this what you mean?"
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Uncle understands correctly, Xu Pingjun is the first queen of Emperor Xiaoxuan, his father Xu Guanghan was granted the title of Ping Enhou, and Xu Guanghan's brother Xu Yanshou was granted the title of Lecheng Hou.
Today I also named my two uncles the Marquis of Ping'en and the Marquis of Lecheng, just to catch up on the old story of Emperor Xiaoxuan.
Emperor Xiaoxuan's family destroyed Huo Guangman's family to avenge Empress Xu. In the future, I will also restore Queen Hu, clear her name, avenge her, and avenge her. "
Huan suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued to ask: "I dare to ask again, Your Majesty is not the biological son of Immortal Master Jingci, why do you do this?"
Zhu Qiyu frowned and emphasized to Huan: "Uncle, please stop yelling at Immortal Jingci from now on. From now on, there will be no Immortal Jingci, only Queen Hu.
As for my motives, there are two. One is that I want to adopt myself to Queen Hu and become the legitimate son, so that my throne can become legitimate.
Second, I really sympathize with what happened to my aunt.
The two uncles may not believe it. I am seeking my own interests, which is only a small part of the reason. A large part of the reason is that I really can't understand Emperor Xuanzong, the Sun family, and the gang of sycophants in the Xuande Dynasty, and want to bring order to the chaos. , and give justice to the people who suffered injustice during the Xuande Dynasty. "
When Juan heard this, although he was shocked, he no longer had any worries in his heart. Although the emperor's move of adopting himself to Empress Hu was extreme, it was really a skill that could kill people and turn things around.
From this point of view, the emperor's behavior was reasonable.
As for whether the emperor's heart was really filled with a sense of justice, Huan didn't care, it was not important, as long as he knew that his sister would finally be redressed, that was enough. "
Thinking of this, Juan could no longer suppress his emotions and began to kneel on the ground, holding Zhu Qiyu's thigh and crying.
Hu Xuan and the wives of the two brothers also knelt on the ground, thanking the emperor for his kindness and crying bitterly.
The reason why the four members of the Hu family are so excited is because the Hu family has been too aggrieved over the years, much more aggrieved than the eldest princess Yongjia of the Wuding Marquis Mansion.
