I am the king of the dead

Zhu Qiyu came to Juxian Pavilion, looked at Kanyu map and said to Xing'an: "Yu Shaobao and Wu Qinghou mean the same thing. They said that there is no turning back when you shoot the bow."

Chapter 893 Must kill modesty, only then can be reconciled

Zhu Qiyu knew that he didn't have any military talent, unlike Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty, who could act arbitrarily in military matters.

There is no doubt that Zhu Yuanzhang's combat power is strong. Throughout the late Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang himself was second to none in terms of military talent. The three-way Northern Expedition, breaking the Hu Yuan court, turning Hu Yuan into Bei Yuan and then turning Bei Yuan into Yuan Yi Khan Court, all show how superb Zhu Yuanzhang's military talent is.

And Zhu Di was the only one who rebelled into Beijing as a vassal king, and his military talent is beyond doubt.

Military talent also determines the decision of the emperor to a certain extent. Whether it is military or cultural, it is difficult for a monarch without military talent to win the support of the army, especially when the opinions of the main generals and the emperor are left Therefore, Xing Wen and Wu seemed to be an inevitable choice, which guaranteed the stability of the throne to a certain extent.

Zhu Qiyu has been trying to establish a system to ensure the prosperity of the military at the same time as the prosperity of the literature, and to obtain the loyalty of the army to ensure that he can sit on the throne, pointing at the great rivers and mountains.

Until the 11th year of Jingtai, Zhu Qiyu guaranteed the loyalty of the Ming army to the various decrees of Zhenwu. At least when Xiao Zhang butcher saw the emperor and Wu Qinghou, he recognized the emperor at the first time, and then discovered the five big and three rough Marquis of Wuqing.

Without military talent, Zhu Qiyu didn't try to be brave. The generals who fought on the front line had the most say, and the opinions of Wen'an Hou Yuqian and Wuqing Hou Shiheng were particularly important.

But Yu Qian and Shi Heng believed that they should fight.

It wasn't because Zhu Qiyu promised to give Yu Qian and Shi Heng the position of the Duke of the Kingdom. The two insisted on continuing to fight in order to become the Duke. If Shi Heng would make some crazy decisions for his own advancement, Yu Qian would not.

But in the word of the main battle, Yu Qian is even more main than Shi Heng. In the battle of the capital, Yu Qian is the hardcore main fighter, and he would rather break the jade than smash it, which is the motto of Yu Qian's life.

In Yu Qian’s Memorial, he described the Great Ming Army’s Northern Expedition as a major change unseen in a thousand years. I hope that His Majesty the Emperor will continue to support the Great Ming Army’s Northern Expedition and complete the unfinished business since ancient times. Conflicts and thousands of years of fighting were resolved from the source. Yu Qian's memorial was very long, and he sent it back to the capital in three letters.

However, Shi Heng’s memorandum is much simpler. In the memorandum, Shi Heng, in addition to expressing his consistent courage to fight and win, he also made a summary of the military. After the Ming army entered the grassland, they gradually got used to the grassland. All kinds of combat, in the continuous process of suppressing bandits, the Ming army has formed a powerful combat force on the grassland, and the conditions for the expedition are fully met.

Of course, Shi Heng also said at the end that if there is an emperor's order to recall, the king has an order, and he would dare not to follow the position.

loyalty.

Shi Heng knew the emperor very well. Even if he withdrew this time, the emperor would continue the Northern Expedition. Shi Heng trusted the emperor very much, just as the emperor trusted him as always.

At first, His Majesty had a knot in his heart about the Wala people. When he ascended the throne, the emperor was besieged in the capital city, like a dragon trapped in the shallows.Secondly, Your Majesty has inherited the behest of the ancestors and the ancestors. Obviously, the Northern Expedition has not yet been completed, so how can you give up?In the past three years, His Majesty has stated more than once that victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. The Ming Army's first Northern Expedition, if it lost this time, it will be the next time it wins back.

"Your Majesty, Ma Huan, Minister of Honglu Temple, asks to see you." Xing'an said in a low voice.

Zhu Qiyu combined Qian Qian's and Shi Heng's memorials and said: "Xuan."

"Chen Ma Huan pays homage to His Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live." Ma Huan entered the door and bowed three times and kowtowed five times. Huan also often meets privately, and this ceremony is unusual.

"Let's talk about it." Zhu Qiyu didn't let Ma Huan flatten, but asked him to kneel and talk, and listen to what Ma Huan had to say first.

Ma Huan buried his head very low and said: "I was ordered by the emperor to send someone to communicate with the Ara Zhiyuan to negotiate a peace. The Ala Zhiyuan said that the peace can only be negotiated after killing Yu Qian."

Zhu Qiyu's expression was quite strange, he seemed angry and smiled, and said full of doubts: "Kill the big-headed ghost! How dare he dare to kill Yu Qian before he is willing to negotiate a peace? What kind of onion is he! I put his Unscrew your head and kick it like a ball, dreaming!"

Zhu Qiyu is not angry, but finds it funny, who is he?Zhu Qiyu, the person who killed his brother and succeeded him, in order to keep Daming, he can personally wear the person who goes into battle and captures the flag.

As an emperor, Zhu Qiyu has always attached great importance to etiquette and rarely swears, but this time he also scolded his mother.

Let him kill Yu Qian, in the entire Ming Dynasty, would anyone dare to say this?

Even when the Nan Ya government rebelled, Yu Qian was not the traitor in the slogan on the side of the Qing emperor!Hu Wei is a traitor!Even the unreliable Nanya Dynasty knows that it is too unreliable to list Yu Qian as a traitor.

Ma Huan, the minister of Honglu Temple, was ordered to communicate with the Prefect of Ara to discuss the matter of peace, and to take a preliminary look at the intention to negotiate peace with each other. This is the order of the emperor Zhu Qiyu, not the order of Yao Kui, Minister of Rites, or Hu Wei, the prince's young teacher.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are so outraged that all the members of the Hanlin Academy scolded the Ara Zhiyuan for their audacity. It is simply unreasonable." Ma Huan knelt on the ground and said, "I have committed a crime for my lord's entrustment."

"Calm down, it's not your fault, communicate, communicate, the mouth is on the body of Arazhiyuan, we can still influence what Arazhiyuan thinks?" Zhu Qiyu motioned Ma Huan to flatten his body, and said with a sneer: "That's all right, It’s because of the Hanlin’s yelling, and now it’s going to continue, it’s probably because of their yelling.”

"It saves me trouble."

Zhu Qiyu was still having a headache about how to deal with the group of Hanlins in the Hanlin Academy. Although they couldn't control the outcome, it was really annoying to yell all day long. blocked.

Yu Qian is the head of a hundred officials, under one person, above tens of thousands of people, a model for all officials in the world, a model for scholars in the world, a white jade pillar of the Ming Dynasty, a purple golden beam across the sea, and the only one around the violent and faint Zhu Qiyu. A courtier who can persuade benevolence and forgiveness.

To kill Yu Qian, let alone Zhu Qiyu’s disapproval, these ministers did not agree first, and the Imperial Academy even more disapproved. If Yu Qian was gone, there would be a conflict between the imperial power and the minister’s power. Who would persuade His Majesty to benevolent, and who would protect the officials?Those who danced the most, those who pointed at the emperor's nose and scolded all day long, were the first to bear the brunt.

Zhu Qiyu really agreed, and the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty will compare Zhu Qiyu with Song Gaozong Wanyan Gou.

It is effective for Yu Qian to persuade Renshu, and Yu Qian seems to have found a new way of persuading Renshu. As long as he is more violent than His Majesty and follows His Majesty's way, His Majesty can only go back and persuade Yu Qian to be more benevolent.

"Get up, let me help you?" Zhu Qiyu saw that Ma Huan was still trembling, and knew that the condition of the Ara Zhiyuan was put forward, and the pressure on Ma Huan's side would definitely not be small. Do you want to become an official?

It is the righteousness of the Confucianism for the king to humiliate his ministers and his ministers to death. Asking to kill Yu Qian is to humiliate Daming and the emperor of Ming Dynasty. Ma Huan communicated with the prefect of Ara and talked about such a precondition. It is not that Ma Huan is incompetent. It was Ara Zhiyuan's dream that was so beautiful.

Ma Huan got up now, the emperor has the final say on whether to be an official or not, since the emperor is lenient, His Majesty will be responsible for the wind and rain.The errand was sent by Zhu Qiyu, Ma Huan couldn't bear the responsibility alone, right?

"Yu Shaobao really predicted the enemy first." Zhu Qiyu opened Yu Qian's memorial, and asked Xing'an to pass it to the nervous Ma Huan.

Although Yu Qian didn't expect that the condition of the Ara Zhiyuan's peace negotiation was to kill him, but he stated in detail in the memorial that he didn't know the specific situation of Ming Dynasty outside the Great Wall, and there was a huge gap in cognition inside and outside the pass.

In the eyes of many prairie people, the Ming Dynasty is still the Ming Dynasty in the orthodox years, and the Ming army is still vulnerable. This is a common perception outside the customs, otherwise the Ara Zhiyuan would not be able to successfully create such a big momentum. .

This cognitive gap is also manifested as: Ara Zhiyuan really believed that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty was a foolish emperor, and it was entirely because of Yu Qian's assistance. The emperor's faint government did not torment Daming here and there. As long as Yu Qian was killed, Daming immediately fell apart.

The most effective way to break through this cognitive gap is to prove it with victory.

The kingship of the Ming Dynasty in Tatar required the Ming army to tell the grassland people with its strength that the Ming Dynasty was indeed the same Daming, but it was the Daming who had fled thousands of miles away and dared not fight against the northern captives who had been fighting with martial arts.

In Qianqian's original words, this battle is a battle for the Ming Dynasty to win.

If you want to win political victories, you must win military victories. If you want to successfully king Tatar, you must go from one victory to another. The prefectures and counties that Ming wanted, the military, political, economic, and cultural Integration is expected to be realized, which is also the great change that Yu Qian said has not happened in a thousand years.

Complete integration requires the tempering of the flames of war.

"Your Majesty, the prince's young teacher Hu Wei, and Wenyuange scholar Wang Wenling's six ministers are waiting outside Juxian Pavilion, asking for an audience." A little Huangmen hurried in and reported.

"The yamen is so idle today, why did you come here?" Zhu Qiyu was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Xuan, let them come in."

After Hu Wei came in with a group of people, the first thing he saw was the map of the Daming Map of the Xuanwei Division of the Old Port of Malacca Strait behind His Majesty, as well as the marching map of the Ming Army, and then there was the pair of nights that were directly opposite His Majesty. picture scroll.

After a group of ministers saw the ceremony, Hu Wei said after careful consideration: "Your Majesty, Yu Shaobao has made contributions to the country."

"Mr. Hu!" Zhu Qiyu knocked on the table vigorously, and said with great dissatisfaction, "Are so many of you here planning to force the palace?"

"Your Majesty, there are many reasons for lack of reasons. The envoy of the Kingdom of Jin said to Song Gaozong that he must kill Fei, and then we can make peace. It is just a step for Song Gaozong." Instead, Hu Wei bit the bullet and finished what he wanted to say with his eyes wide open. .

Hu Wei believed that Song Gaozong had no reason to kill Yue Fei. If he killed Yue Fei, he would not need to recover the two capitals; I don't want to work hard anymore, I have slacked off a long time ago, but the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty was still Bianliang of Kaifeng Mansion, not Lin'an.

The words of the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin gave Song Gaozong this reason and gave Song Gaozong a step.

Hu Wei was afraid that the words of Ara Zhiyuan would become that pretext, such a big matter, if he didn't ask clearly, Hu Wei would never let it go.

Zhu Qiyu originally planned to be angry, but looking at Hu Min's face, he really couldn't get angry. This face was almost 90 years old, full of gullies, and filled with the years of Daming.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head helplessly and said: "Teacher Hu, you are a flatterer, when did you become such a straight minister? Arguing with us in front of us, look at you, where is there any more?" The appearance of a flatterer."

Hu Wei always said that Jingtai's courtiers were a little naive, and Hu Wei himself became naive in this big dye vat.

"Xing'an." Zhu Qiyu and Xing'an whispered a few times, asking Xing'an to fetch some things.

"This is the world certificate I gave to Marquis Wen'an and Marquis Wuqing, but it is newly made, and it is the Duke of the state." Zhu Qiyu opened several brocade boxes and asked Xing'an to hold them for all the ministers to read.

"I have already signed this world ticket, and I am waiting for Marquis Wen'an and Marquis Wuqing to return triumphantly, you can see clearly!" Zhu Qiyu signaled Xing'an to take back the world ticket, then stood up abruptly and said sharply: "I am very angry! "

"If you are a person in the market, or a court official below the fourth rank, you may have misunderstood my nature and temper, so that's all. You are my humerus, don't you know? What are you doing here?"

"It was you who talked about the peace, and it was you who said the war again. You are the ones to say all the good things, and you have all the reasons in the whole world, right! When you leave the court tomorrow, you can discuss what to do. When the result comes out, I will do it!"

After Zhu Qiyu finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and walked away, leaving all the officials looking at each other in blank dismay.

Zhu Qiyu walked out of the imperial study room, the anger on his face was suppressed, but he was happy with his hands, and then walked towards Dabieye, saying as he walked: "Xing'an, do you think I was really angry just now?"

"Your Majesty?" Xing'an was confused, scratching his head full of lawsuits and said: "Your Majesty is not angry?"

Xing'an thought that His Majesty was really angry, and was still thinking about how to persuade His Majesty to calm down, but when he left the door, His Majesty laughed. The four words moody really confused Xing'an.

Zhu Qiyu walked briskly and said: "Why are you angry? This is a matter of national subjugation that seeks glory and humiliation! The Ming Dukes of Ming Dynasty don't even have the courage to make the emperor angry. Dare I ask, I have to worry about this Ming Dynasty, whether it is really going to subjugate tomorrow, whether I will be the king of subjugation."

"It's just for this reason to take a day off. I have been busy for so many years, and I can finally rest."

After Hu Mi left the Juxian Pavilion, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Finally, he came to his senses and was put on by His Majesty. How could His Majesty, who always puts the country's affairs first, be angry when his ministers came to see him and ask what happened?

Zhu Qiyu came back after sitting on duty for a while, but Ran Siniang didn't finish the iced sour plum soup, she asked in surprise, "Why did you come back so early?"

Zhu Qiyu explained what happened just now clearly, and said with a smile: "They used to be justified, but now they have become wronged."

Ran Siniang hesitated to speak, and then she said: "You can't blame the courtiers for worrying, this is really a matter of honor and disgrace to the court, if they don't say anything and dare not ask, there is something wrong with the court, orthodox In 14, King Jili insisted on his own conquest. Kuang Ye, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Zhang Fu, the British Duke, also fought hard on the basis of reason. In the end, they still couldn’t hold back King Jili. thing?"

"National affairs come first, Your Majesty, don't blame the courtiers too much for not being considerate of the Sacred Heart."

Zhu Qiyu put his arms around Ran Siniang's waist, rubbed his ears and temples together, and said softly: "How dare they dare to go to the palace at that time, they ran to force the palace, and it was really done, and we have to settle it afterwards. Why do I work so hard all day? Isn't it just for the sake of it?" like this?"

"This world belongs to me, and it belongs to the people of the world. If I am alone, the world can be governed? When everyone gathers firewood, the flame can grow high."

Ran Siniang said seriously and sincerely: "Your Majesty is wise."

Chapter 894 I wish Huayi would be the same

The next day Zhu Qiyu didn't go to court, but really quit. Zhu Qiyu, who was quite diligent, quit court this time, which made people panic.

But Zhu Qiyu himself wrote a few words in the study of the big villa, and read them for a long time. This is a sentence in Yu Qian's memorial, and this sentence was not said by Yu Qian himself, but by Emperor Taizong Wen of Ming Dynasty.

I only hope that Huayi will be in the same track.

These are the twelve wishes on the big bell cast in the Yongle period of the Great Bell Temple in Beijing Normal University, I wish the Tathagata to explain the pope, I wish to show great compassion, I wish the emperor will be prosperous forever, I wish the country and the people are happy, I wish When the time is abundant and the grains rise, I wish that everyone will be loyal and filial, I wish that Huayi will be in the same order, I hope that the world will be governed and peaceful, and I hope that the people will be in the realm of longevity, and that all disasters will be eliminated. auspicious.

These twelve wishes are the true portrayal of Zhu Di's life. No matter how heavy the garbage on the Changling Mausoleum is, or how much literati and inkmen have always disliked the emperor who usurped the world, they can't change Zhu Di. I only hope that the life of running around will be magnificent.

Yu Qian's strong will to fight is to practice this sentence, hoping that Huayi will follow suit.

"Frame it." Zhu Qiyu looked at the picture in front of him, asked Xing'an to frame it, and hung it in the imperial study.

Zhu Qiyu was happy and happy in the big villa, but he was worried about the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty. When the courtiers were staring at Wenyuan Pavilion, Hu Jin took Liu Ji to the lecture hall.

"Your Majesty lost his temper, so we have to find a way for His Majesty to come down, otherwise His Majesty won't come down from above." Hu Wei stood in the lecture hall, exhorting Liu Ji.

"Your Majesty won't come down. For some people, isn't that just right?" Liu Ji's tone was a bit unfriendly. After Hu Wei retired, Liu Ji was exposed to more affairs, and gradually discovered that for some courtiers, His Majesty is not It is most beneficial for them to go to court, so that all faults can be pushed to the emperor's head, and their own guilt can be covered up with the word "slack".

For example, during the orthodox years, it was possible to attribute all the blame to King Jili, while ignoring the crimes of Yang Shiqi and other civil servants who promoted literature and martial arts and even lightened martial arts, and destroyed Ming's armaments, and ignored Wang Zhen's guilt of usurping the divine weapon.

This is the space for maneuvering. The guilt of history is attributed to one person, while they live behind the scenes and continue to be their own virtuous ministers.

Hearing what Liu Ji said, Hu Wei said with a little relief: "So, our Ministry of Rites will make that step, the step for His Majesty to come down."

"But what should we do with this step?" Liu Ji was full of doubts. How to let His Majesty come down, let alone Liu Ji, all the courtiers looked at each other in blank dismay. When it comes to the Confucian righteousness of the monarch and ministers, we have come to this step.

"How to make this step is complicated." Hu Yan said with mixed feelings.

If the steps were so simple, the conflict between the monarch and his ministers would not have intensified since ancient times, and eventually turned into a court struggle. How can the complexity of this be explained clearly in one or two sentences?

"How should Mr. Hu be as a father?" Liu Ji asked again, how to deal with the current situation?

"It's the simplest right now. Your Majesty is willing to come down in this situation. There is no gap between the monarch and his ministers. The situation in the court is not complicated, and the court is not full of hills, fighting to the death. This is the simplest. Sleepy Isn’t it simple to just send a pillow? If one of them is missing, there will be ever-changing things. If all three are missing, then your majesty will not be able to come down.” Hu Wei said something earnestly to Liu Jiyu.

Whether the emperor is willing or not, whether he wants to do it because of some trivial matters, is simply to find an excuse and directly open it up, that is one reason.

The second reason is whether the contradiction between imperial power and ministerial power has intensified, and whether they have been fighting to the death for power.

There are many factions in the DPRK and China. Whether it is for profit or not, they are fighting to the death. The battle is fierce. Even the emperor has to avoid one or two. Wait until the courtiers have a result and then come out to be a referee. This is the third reason.

And the intrigue surrounding the emperor, courtiers, imperial power, and ministers' power is as complicated as the human heart. How can it be explained clearly in a few words?

However, this time, it is the simplest one. His Majesty is diligent, His Majesty's holy will is arbitrary, and because Yu Shao is keeping pressure in the court, there is no such thing as a mountain, so it is the simplest.

Hu Wei took two steps forward, flicked his sleeves, pretended to kneel, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, minister Hu Wei, come to apologize."

The little yellow gate at the door panicked all of a sudden, this Hu Wei is 87 years old, and he has long enjoyed the ritual of not worshiping when entering the court, and the elderly over 70 years old are not allowed to salute, that is the five permanent members of Confucianism.

If this Hu Yan really knelt down, people like Xiao Huangmen would be scolded by their ancestors.

A few little yellow gates hurried forward and held Hu Wei who was about to kneel, and they tore up.

Hu Yan wanted to kneel, but the little yellow door wouldn't let him, and the little yellow door didn't dare to use too much strength. If something happened, the little yellow door couldn't bear to walk around, and froze for a while.

A clever little Huangmen ran into the big villa when Hu Yi spoke, and found Xing'an in the study who was serving His Majesty's writing and writing, and hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, so Young Master Hu is here Make a fuss at the door!"

Zhu Qiyu laughed and said, "Xuan, just let Hu Shangshu in."

Liu Ji was a little dazed throughout the whole process, even when he entered His Majesty's study, he was still a little dazed. His master Hu Wei's trick was actually very simple, that is, relying on the old to sell the old and making trouble for no reason!

What he said was an apology, but is this really an apology?

"Hu Shangshu, what do you think of my writing?" Zhu Qiyu asked Hu Wei and others to excuse him, but pointed to the few words he had just written, wishing that Hua Yi could write them in the same way.

Hu Min is old, his eyes are a bit cloudy, he looked closely, and he knew where it came from, Hu Min smiled very sincerely, he guessed right, His Majesty is not slack, but the recent complicated affairs in the court, especially the Northern Expedition, it seems There is no specific direction, no up, no down, no advance, no retreat, no fight, no retreat, just stand there.

Your Majesty's day is just a summary of the past, finding a goal means finding a direction.

"Okay! This word is good!" After reading the content, Hu Yan said it out of flattery, regardless of whether the writing is good or not, no matter how good the emperor's pen and ink are, is it important to govern the country well?

Besides, Your Majesty is indeed a good word.
