The Ming Dynasty was a huge Han empire.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang, the wise founder, and Zhu Di, who conquered Mobei for five times, have never made the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty so united.
They abandoned their political differences and their grudges, and had only one thought: to prevent Zhu Qizhen from returning to the capital and harming their country again.
Even if a small number of people have evil thoughts in their hearts, they can only go with the trend as the general trend suppresses them.
Zhu Jianshen was only eight years old. Even though he was smart and had the demeanor of a wise king, there was still a long way to go, and the civil and military officials of the entire court would not go all out to stop Zhu Qizhen.
In other words, it should be easy to understand.
It's not that Zhu Jianshen is too good, but that Zhu Qizhen is too bad.
He was so bad that all civil and military officials in the court despised him.
It is because of his existence that he can set off Zhu Jianshen's image as a wise king. BIquGe.biz
The Empress Dowager supported the ministers with great enthusiasm.
Yu Qian's cabinet team was almost completely overwhelmed.
Many officials came to offer advice.
Someone has some advice on how to "welcome" the Supreme Emperor back.
The strategies are all kinds of strange.
Someone came up with the idea of plastering the Emperor's portraits all over the Yanbian government, describing the Emperor as a heinous criminal. Anyone who could turn the Emperor into an official would be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. This was simple and rude, but it was incompatible with royal dignity.
Someone suggested that the government began to issue a circular informing the people of Yanbian that the Supreme Emperor was back. As long as the Supreme Emperor was caught, no, as long as traces of the Supreme Emperor were discovered, the Supreme Emperor should be persuaded to surrender quickly, no, to return to the capital as soon as possible. Officials would send the Supreme Emperor back to the capital. , the official is promoted to the third level, and those without official status start directly from a hundred households.
There are still people who want to play tactic of war with Zhu Qizhen, lure the snake out of its hole, let the little emperor go out to worship heaven and ancestors, and lure the overlord out. If you don't believe it, minister, you must believe it, your son.
…………
There are many kinds of them, some can be used, some are just to increase the sense of presence.
Some ministers have already thought about Zhu Qizhen's palace.
Some people say that it should be placed in Yunnan and Guizhou, which is far away from the capital and has beautiful scenery. It is suitable for the emperor to rest. Others say that it should be placed in Yangzhou, a land of water and rice. It can nourish people. The more outrageous ministers said that building any palace is a waste of gold and silver. Mingli, let’s capture the Supreme Empress and send her back directly to Tuotuo Buhua. How could the former king of the great country sneak back? It would be too embarrassing for the Ming Dynasty. When Zhu Jianshen takes over, we will welcome her back with gongs and drums. .
Yu Qian was in charge of the matter and immediately convened the ministers to discuss countermeasures.
Six years ago, he was ordered to defend the capital and fought a battle with Ye first under the city walls. Six years later, he also shouldered the important task of having a battle of wits and courage with Zhu Qizhen around the capital.
However, strictly speaking, Zhu Qizhen still cannot be compared with Ye Xian.
But in Yu Qian's view, if he couldn't control it, the impact would be greater than the battle to defend Beijing.
Because the matter is big.
Yu Qian was afraid that he would not think carefully, so he invited all the important ministers to the cabinet to discuss the detailed steps. During the defense battle of Beijing six years ago, Yu Qian had never consulted with so many senior officials.
Among the cabinet, Yu Qian, Li Xian, Yang Shan, Xu Youzhen, Liu Dingzhi, Gao Juyi, Zhu Shou, Chen Ying, Shi Heng, as well as Wang Wen, Sun Xiang and others who had just been transferred back, because Jin Yiwei was needed at a special moment With the strength, Yu Qian also called Zhu Ji.
More than thirty central officials sat together.
The ideas proposed by other ministers were just to join in the fun, and it was these people who had to make the final decision.
"In my opinion, the biggest problem now is not knowing where the Supreme Emperor is? He is in the dark and we are in the open, which is not good for us. Looking for it this way is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. I feel that we should change our strategy and relax in the open. We used force in the dark to make the Supreme Emperor feel that the limelight has passed, and we can only find him if he comes out." Li Xian said.
"Although what Li Fuchen said makes sense, it seems to me that it took too long and the effect is too slow. As time goes by, there will be more changes. Your Majesty is still waiting for a letter." Zhu Ji said quickly.
He and Liu Yu still carried the imperial edict on their bodies. Others could proceed slowly, but he could not.
As long as Zhu Qizhen was not found, Zhu Ji could not reply to Zhu Jianshen. If he delayed for a long time, he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand Zhu Jianshen's anger.
After all, I am different from these ministers. They are ministers of the Ming Dynasty, but I am a minister of the emperor.
"Commander Zhu, I know you are in trouble, but now there is no decisive solution."
"Yes." Yang Shan said.
Everyone looked at Yang Shan.
"What's Mr. Yang's clever plan?" Yu Qian asked hurriedly.
"The Supreme Emperor certainly did not come back alone. Now the Supreme Emperor has placed portraits of the Supreme Emperor in Zijingguan and Juyongguan. The Supreme Emperor does not know the situation, so he must not dare to show his face, but he always needs to eat and drink. The people who serve him must be there. We are going out to inquire about the situation and also buy food. We can win over this person who comes out. If he is willing to submit, then we can easily find the Supreme Emperor."
"According to secret reports from people around the Supreme Emperor, the Supreme Emperor brought four eunuchs with him when he returned." Yu Qian said.
"Having said that, what kind of win-win can be as good as what the Supreme Emperor gives? Let alone someone from a deep palace." Li Xian replied,
Even if the Supreme Emperor is in the past tense, he is still the king.
Is what you give as a minister comparable to that of the Supreme Emperor?
"Li Fuchen, you have made some decisions. What about the people in the palace? What the Supreme Emperor has given is that they must return to the capital and re-assume the throne before they can agree. But what I have given can be obtained immediately. They have lived in the palace for a long time, and they have already known it in their hearts. I knew that the Supreme Emperor would not have a chance to ascend the throne. I followed the Supreme Emperor back, but my mind was temporarily clouded. I saw the portraits and soldiers in Zijin Pass and Juyong Pass, and I had long since recovered. It was just that it was difficult to get off the tiger, and there was nothing else. Choice, but if we gave them this choice, they would be ecstatic." Yang Shan just smiled.
Yang is good at eloquence and is recognized in the court. Otherwise, how could he be the leader of the censors? Usually he just doesn't speak in court meetings, but when it comes to talking, few people really can say anything about him.
After listening to Yang Shan's words, all the ministers felt that it made sense.
With real benefits, who would take the risk?
"Mr. Yang, how should we do it specifically?" Li Xian was interested. He had been persuaded to give it a try.
"This is what you should think about and do." Yang Shan just smiled lightly.
Zhu Shou, Chen Ying, Shi Heng and other military attachés could not help but feel cold after hearing Yang Shan's words.
They can charge into battle and move forward boldly, but if we say who is the strongest scheming person, it is the old-fashioned civil servants in the court.
It is a thorough understanding of people's hearts.
While the ministers were discussing the details, Zhu Jianshen in the Qianqing Palace was standing in front of Empress Dowager Sun with his head lowered. Zhang Bao and other eunuchs in the Qianqing Palace were all kneeling next to Zhu Jianshen. It seems that the young emperor just now was He said something that angered the Empress Dowager.
"Grandma Huang, I still say what I said. When my father comes back, I will definitely return the throne to him. My father is young, strong and brave. If he returns to the throne, he will definitely make a difference."
Zhu Jianshen pouted, his unconvinced look clearly visible.
"Why are you so ignorant? Grandma Huang has already told you that your father is still touring Northern Xinjiang and will never come back. Even if he does come back, he has lost his moral character and has been abandoned by God. He will never be able to come back. Fu Feng has regained control of the magical weapon." Seeing her always obedient imperial grandson being so stubborn, the Empress Dowager Sun was a little angry. After a pause, the Empress Dowager Sun walked up to Zhu Jianshen and touched her as usual. Zhu Jianshen's head, then put his hands on Zhu Jianshen's shoulders and said: "Your Majesty, look at Grandma Huang."
Zhu Jianshen raised his head, with tears in his eyes and aggrieved face.
"Grandma Huang, I haven't seen my father for six years. I have forgotten what he looks like. I really miss my father."
Seeing Zhu Jianshen's appearance, Empress Dowager Sun felt very distressed. This was a child she had raised by herself.
"Your Majesty, you will grow up healthy and healthy. When you secure the throne and take charge, you will naturally be able to meet your father."
"But..." Zhu Jianshen wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Empress Dowager Sun.
"Your Majesty, although you are young, Grandma Huang knows everything in your heart. If, if your father ascends the throne again, he will definitely kill you." When she said this, Empress Dowager Sun was thinking Drops of blood.
This is the tragedy of the imperial family. Even father, son, and brothers can kill each other for the throne.
"He will kill many people. Your teacher Yu Taibao, Li Fuchen who often gives you gadgets, Cheng Guogong Zhu Shou who teaches you equestrian archery, Taining Hou Chen Ying, Xu Youzhen who often talks about stars to you, take care of you when you grow up. Zhang Bao, the commander-in-chief of the nine towns far away at the border, those you know and those you don’t know will all be killed. If you kill the officials, who will govern the country; if you kill the generals, who will lead the troops to meet the enemy if the foreign enemy comes to the border? , Your Majesty, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, for your ministers, and for your people, you cannot retreat. You should restrain your selfish desires and give up some for the king. Your benevolence is reserved for the people, not for your father. "Empress Dowager Sun said softly.
As a king, your benevolence should be left to the people. This sentence can be regarded as a sincere request from the Empress Dowager Sun to her grandson, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Jianshen has been looking at these things from the perspective of an adult. What he said about giving up the throne is actually just keeping his position. Of course he knows what consequences Zhu Qizhen will have on the Ming Dynasty if he returns to the throne.
He knew everything, everything was clear, but he lost himself in the heartfelt words of the Empress Dowager, as if at this moment, he was really just an eight-year-old child, as if at this moment, he completely accepted that he was the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. It was as if at this moment he had rediscovered his life goal and worked hard for it throughout his life.
"Grandma Huang, I will listen to you and be a good emperor who cares about the people."
Empress Dowager Sun's heartfelt words were also exchanged for Zhu Jianshen's sincere words.
