Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 502

In front of Datong City, the Supreme Emperor sat in a bright yellow carriage, swearing at Yu Qian.

All the officials present bowed their heads tacitly. They are not allowed to participate in disputes of this level, and can only wait for the result.

But among these people, Guo Deng was not included.

As the commander-in-chief of Datong City and the de facto commander of the Wanguan Army on the field, he is not qualified to sit back and watch the situation.

Therefore, he still stood by his sword, and surrounded the officers and soldiers of the mission layer by layer, but he did not disperse, and his eyes fell on Qian.

Guo Deng was able to become a Marquis right away and become the most prestigious general in the court after Yang Hong, not only because of his bravery and military exploits.

He knew better than anyone else that at this time, he had to straighten out his position.

And his position is that the officers and soldiers of Datong only obey orders from the imperial court!
In this field, that is, the order of Yu Qian, who represents the admiral of the imperial court and supervises military affairs.

On this point, he never hesitated.

As for Yu Qian, who was watched by him, facing the scolding of the Supreme Emperor, he neither spoke nor moved, but just stood there silently.

Silence is also a kind of struggle!
This move, for the Supreme Emperor who had just returned to court, obviously had a heavy meaning of offense.

At that moment, Zhu Qizhen's face became extremely ugly, and he was about to utter a rage.

But after all, he is not a fool, even though he has done what a fool would do.

Zhu Qizhen clearly understood that at this moment, the actual control of the situation was not in his hands.

But he understands better that he cannot back down.

Ever since he made up his mind to send him back to Daming, he no longer restrained the actions of the mission, nor restricted their meeting with the Supreme Emperor.

Through many inquiries to Yuan Bin, Zhu Jian and others, Zhu Qizhen has a rough understanding of the various major events that occurred in the Ming court during this year.

Although it is only the most superficial and superficial part, it is enough for him to see a lot of things.

After understanding, Zhu Qizhen's mood was complicated.

I was surprised, surprised that my younger brother, who had never participated in politics, could have such outstanding talents.

I am gratified, gratified that Daming Jiangshan was finally saved safely, and it was not destroyed because of my impulsive actions.

Naturally, there was also a hint of guilt mixed in.

But more, indeed a strong sense of anxiety and fear!
Unlike Yuan Bin, Zhu Jian and others, Zhu Qizhen is an emperor himself.

Starting from this perspective, looking at many things, the conclusions drawn are different.

First of all, he has no other people's awe of the emperor.

This is determined by his identity.

He has been a Venerable since he was a child, and even if he abdicates now, he is still the Supreme Emperor.

In terms of status, he is even more noble than the emperor.

So he doesn't have to be in awe.

Secondly, for an emperor, especially an emperor like Zhu Qizhen, he is used to only looking at the results.

How the process is and what the details are are not things that an emperor like him would consider, he only cares about the results.

He doesn't care about the means of being able to do what he has told him to do well, and it doesn't matter how much blood is involved.

If it is not done well, no matter how many extenuating circumstances there are, it is a crime.

Zhu Qizhen has been doing this for more than 20 years.

Therefore, he favored Wang Zhen immensely.

Because Wang Zhen can always do well whatever he entrusts him with.

When he was unhappy, Wang Zhen could make him happy, when the courtiers were noisy, Wang Zhen could shut them up, and when he wanted to send troops to the north, Wang Zhen could prepare everything immediately.

The emperor, I am the only one.

I only need to think about "I".

Wang Zhen is arrogant and domineering, with many bad deeds, of course Zhu Qizhen knows, but he doesn't care.

It's just an old dog. It's enough to be loyal and able to handle things. If things are done well, why not give him some favors, and don't care about the details.

With this kind of thinking habit, look at the major events in the court.

Zhu Qizhen easily came to a conclusion.

His younger brother who was thousands of miles away, the current emperor of Ming Dynasty, was full of resentment and dissatisfaction with him, and was using all available means to suppress and reduce his influence and status.

He knew that there must be intricate inside stories about what happened in the court situation during this period, and he also heard all kinds of "excusable circumstances" that the emperor called.

However, he is used to seeing the results!

As a result, many ministers he trusted in the court, as well as the ministers who advocated welcoming him back, were demoted and killed one by one.

In particular, in the case of Xu Bin and others, his younger brother revealed his schemes and received an imperial edict to summon all sides.

Make him feel terrified!

After thinking for a whole night, Zhu Qizhen came to an unbelievable but irrefutable conclusion.

That is, perhaps it may be safer to stay in Wala than to return to Beijing.

This made him feel extremely absurd, but it was the truth.

At least in Wala, although it was bitterly cold, he didn't dare to do anything to him.

The overlord of the Ming Dynasty died in Wala, no matter what form he took, it was equivalent to sounding the horn of war.

but……

What also makes Zhu Qizhen feel sad is that it is no longer up to him to decide whether to stay or go.

He wanted to go back to Beijing before, and now he doesn't want to go back, it's the same.

For Ye Xian, his attitude was far inferior to the kind attitude of the Ming court.

The return to the south is a foregone conclusion!

Then, his first priority next is to ensure that he can reach the capital safely.

Although he knew that this possibility was unlikely, he could not afford any accidents due to the long journey home.

In the capital city, the risk is much smaller under the watchful eyes of civil and military officials.

The only thing that made Zhu Qizhen feel a little relieved was that he was also afraid that he would die on the road.

He sent him back to the Supreme Emperor to show his respect and kindness to Daming.

Daming's condition was for the Supreme Emperor to return to the court safely. In other words, if Zhu Qizhen died on the road, even if it was within the territory of Daming, the relationship between the two parties would also face the risk of breaking down.

Therefore, when Zhu Qizhen asked Wala to send a small number of guards to listen to him and follow him, he agreed without even thinking about it.

In fact, this is where the entire mission is suffering. It is the Supreme Emperor who asks for someone. It is not that he is also threatening the Supreme Emperor to do something. They want to refuse, but there is nothing they can do.

In fact, Zhu Qizhen had expected the current situation.

He knew that Yu Qian was his younger brother's right-hand man.

Therefore, when he arrived in Datong, the conflict was actually inevitable.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't retreat, once he retreated, there would be no more trustworthy guards around him, he didn't dare to bet whether the guards sent to him by Yu Qian had any dead soldiers with murderous intentions.

At the same time, he is also fighting!
Fight for one's own, due, authority of the Supreme Emperor.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhu Qizhen snarled again and said.

"Yu Qian, I am the Supreme Emperor. Although these people are of Mongolian blood, they are loyal to me. Does it mean that I don't even have the right to grant them status?"

"Or, in front of so many officials, soldiers, civil and military personnel, Yu Qian, do you want to resist the order?"

At this moment, Zhu Qizhen looked furious, with a strong sense of reprimand in his tone.

So, after he yelled angrily at these words, Yu Qian really took a step back silently, and cupped his hands.

"I don't dare, invite the Supreme Emperor to enter the city!"

Guo Deng is an out-and-out soldier, so he got the order, without hesitation, he dispersed the surrounding officers and soldiers and made way for him.

This turmoil has been eliminated.

But no one noticed that Yu Qian's face was extremely complicated, not unwilling, nor angry or angry, but unexpectedly, with a trace of heaviness.

That night, the Supreme Emperor was stationed in Datong City. At the gate of the city, a group of knights galloped out, heading towards the capital...
