Zhu Qiyu expressed his position to the Queen Mother Sun: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, the eldest brother is the emperor. No matter when and where, I will never dare to hurt the eldest brother.
Moreover, I have already told Totuo Buhua and Alazhiyuan that their armies can encircle and suppress you first, but they must not harm the eldest brother.
I also personally promised my eldest brother under the city of Beijing. After the war in the south is over, I will order Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji, Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao, and Anyuan Marquis Liu Pu to lead an army to welcome my eldest brother and return to the court for his restoration. "
When Queen Mother Sun heard this, her spirits were brightened at first, and then her face turned gloomy.
Empress Dowager Sun completely understood what Zhu Qiyu meant: The emperor's faction was obedient and allowed the emperor to do whatever he wanted. Then Zhu Qiyu could order Wang Ji, Chen Mao, and Liu Pu to lead an army to welcome the emperor back.
If the emperor's faction is disobedient, the emperor has many countermeasures.
It doesn't take much, as long as Zhu Qiyu can't be beaten to death, he will issue an edict to allow Wang Ji, Chen Mao and Liu Pu to return to Beijing. This method alone is enough to suppress the Emperor's faction to death.
This is the power of the right name. Although Wang Jizheng held the main force of 200,000 Ming troops and Chen Mao also had 100,000 troops, both of them could only calmly suppress the rebellion in the south.
Want to lead an army back to Beijing? The division is unknown, which general of yours is willing to follow you?
It is difficult to find peace, it is not that easy. If you are as strong as Taizong, don't you have to pretend to be crazy and act stupid first and then raise the army with righteousness?
Besides, the 60,000 troops of Totuo Buhua and Alazhiyuan now have to be dispatched by Zhu Qiyu. Whether Zhu Qizhen, the supreme emperor, will die on the way back depends entirely on Zhu Qiyu's conscience.
Empress Dowager Sun also understood these joints, so in order to allow Zhu Qizhen to return to Beijing safely, she had no choice but to endure and give in. There was no other way.
Even if Zhu Qiyu wants to reset Empress Hu, Empress Dowager Sun can only grit her teeth and admit it, and swallow any grievances she has.
Besides, Empress Dowager Sun has been in glory for so many years, and she is not aggrieved. The one who was truly wronged was Empress Hu, who was rehabilitated twenty years after her death.
After clarifying the situation at hand, Empress Dowager Sun reluctantly smiled at Zhu Qiyu and said: "I understand the emperor's feelings towards the emperor.
Even a woman like me doesn’t understand military and state affairs. The emperor severely damaged Oala, defended the capital, turned the tide, showed great wisdom and strength, and handed over the country and the country to the emperor. I have nothing to worry about anymore.
The late Emperor and the Supreme Emperor left such a mess, and I feel guilty. From now on, although the emperor can freely govern the world, I will never interfere.
The emperor has many things to do every day, and Princess Qi shoulders the important task of continuing the royal family's legacy and giving birth to a legitimate son. There is no need to enter the palace to pay her respects in the future. "
Seeing that Sun had made a complete compromise, Zhu Qiyu felt satisfied. He looked at Wang coldly, then stood up and said goodbye to the Queen Mother.
Mrs. Sun nodded and didn't stay any longer.
Zhu Qiyu left Cining Palace and personally sent the King of Soochow to Prince Wu's Mansion together with the concubine. After understanding the proper arrangements, he returned to his palace.
As soon as they entered the house, they saw the beloved concubines coming in and out, all of them beaming with joy and busy packing their luggage.
Zhu Qiyu smiled at Lin Xiangyu and said, "What are you doing? When you were held captive by Wang Shan before, you still escaped secretly. Why now that you are my sex slave, you have started to pack up your belongings and run away openly?"
Lin Xiangyu's recent demeanor and behavior have become more and more gentle and gentle. While kneeling on the ground to take off Zhu Qiyu's boots, she smiled and said: "The slave family wants to run away with the husband, so this time it can only be regarded as a master-slave elopement."
"Today is only twenty-four, and there are still several days before the Chinese New Year. Are you all in such a hurry to leave?"
"Well, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, my husband will hold a court meeting, on the second Lunar New Year, he will accompany the slave back to his parents' home, on the third Lunar New Year, he will meet his trusted ministers, and on the fourth Lunar New Year, we will run away as a family.
We have to use the dirty and smelly well water to boil bath water every day. All the sisters have had enough. We are going to live our lives guarding the Yushan Hot Spring. "
Zhu Qiyu nodded in agreement: "Okay, I've had enough. I wash this narrow and small broken tub every day, and I can't even play in the water.
As a man, if you don't play like a mandarin duck, you are really a waste of the best beauties like you. "
Hearing this, Lin Xiangyu stood up, pulled Zhu Qiyu and said with a smile: "Come on, Master, I will go to the back room to help you take a bath."
Nothing to say for a day.
The next day, December 25th, morning.
Zhu Qiyu held a small court meeting in the West Flower Hall and 'reported' the results of the past few days to the ministers in detail.
Zhu Qiyu said it very cryptically and euphemistically, but all his close ministers understood it.
As for why we are not more straightforward, it is because our eldest uncle Hu Lao Shangshu has returned to Beijing, and he is very diligent. He came to attend the court meeting without taking a day off.
Zhu Qiyu was very helpless, and the other ministers were also very helpless. Hu Xi is already seventy-four this year. I have seen that I am seventy-five years old, and I am still so old and strong.
I have been a Minister of Gu Ming, I have also been a Cabinet Bachelor, and I have been in the limelight for decades, so why can't I take the initiative to resign and request to become an official? At such a young age, why bother if you have to force the emperor to do things in a disgraceful manner?
Hu Xi's only positive effect was to convince Zhu Qiyu that traditional Chinese medicine was useful.
This old minister studied medicine intensively and paid attention to health care, and finally lived to the age of eighty-eight.
Oh my God! Thinking of this, Zhu Qiyu made up his mind to send the old minister away. Who can bear it if he is allowed to wander around in front of his eyes every day for another fifteen years?
Fortunately, when Zhu Qiyu was about to take a nap, Hu Xi immediately handed over a pillow. Hu Xi took out a memorial and handed it over, and then said:
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites has requested that in accordance with the etiquette and law, Wang, the concubine of King Xi, should be appointed as the queen. Please allow your Majesty's approval."
"No."
Zhu Qiyu replied with two words very stiffly.
Hearing this, Hu Xi immediately asked: "Yue Zheng submitted a letter requesting the restoration of Immortal Master Jingci. Your Majesty has made it clear that you should respect your first wife's legitimate wife.
In this case, as your first wife and wife, Princess Tao should naturally be canonized as queen.
Otherwise, the restoration of Immortal Master Jingci would be inconsistent with the appointment of Queen Taifei to the throne. Your Majesty, please give me an accurate explanation as to whether you should respect your first wife and your legitimate wife. "
Zhu Qiyu sneered when he heard this: "Then what is the position of Uncle Zong?"
Hu Xi replied: "Of course you should respect your first wife and your first wife."
Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "Then I don't understand. Where was the eldest uncle when my mother-in-law was deposed and humiliated for no fault? Why didn't you respect your first wife at that time?
In the past twenty years, have you ever thought about redressing the grievances of my mother and queen? Why don't you respect your first wife and your first wife during this period?
Da Zongbo was a Jinshi appointed by Emperor Jianwen. Emperor Jianwen, how should I say, is considered your first wife. You have been the second minister for more than 40 years. Have you ever thought of taking care of the son of your old master even once?
The poor Prince of Soochow has been imprisoned in a high wall for nearly fifty years. Don't you, an old minister of Jianwen, show no emotion at all? "
Zhu Qiyu was completely merciless and directly said the word 'Er Chen' that he had been holding in his heart for a long time.
After saying it, my heart felt relaxed and my thoughts became clear.
