Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 44 The King of Qi intensively issued an edict to promote and prepare for the war

After staying in the Compassionate Ning Palace for less than half an hour, Zhu Qiyu got up to say goodbye.Empress Dowager Sun didn't force her to stay, she let her go after a few polite words.

Concubine Zhou stood up and replied to Empress Dowager Sun: "My sister is not familiar with the palace, and this concubine happened to be on the way, so I will let my concubine send His Highness and my sister there."

Empress Dowager Sun nodded, leaving only Empress Qian to continue chatting.

When everyone left the palace, Lin Xiangyu hugged Zhu Jianshen affectionately, and walked in front side by side with Concubine Zhou.Zhu Qiyu couldn't get in the way, so he could only follow behind his own concubine in boredom, step by step.

Zhu Qiyu kept walking with his head covered, and when he reached Xianyang Palace, the two in front stopped.

Concubine Zhou said with a smile: "My sister lives here in Xianyang Palace. After my sister pays respects to the old concubine, I come to sit in my sister's palace."

Lin Xiangyu replied with a smile: "Alright, my sister will come over to kowtow to my sister later, and ask for a cup of tea by the way."

Concubine Zhou pinched Lin Xiangyu's pretty face, and said with a teasing smile, "I'm sure you're right, I'll be really impressed when my sister comes."

After all, I want to take Zhu Jianshen over.

Zhu Jianshen, however, lay in Lin Xiangyu's arms, pretending, "I want my aunt to hug me."

Concubine Zhou smiled and said: "Shen'er is obedient, and my aunt will come back later. If you are not obedient, my aunt will not like you, and I won't come to see you in a while."

Only then did Zhu Jianshen let Concubine Zhou carry her over, and said: "Auntie will come over later, and play with Shen'er to untangle Jiulianhuan. Shen'er is very good, and he can untie it in just one meal."

"Good, good, good."

Lin Xiangyu agreed with a smile, and then continued walking northeast with Zhu Qiyu.

It turned out that Zhu Qiyu's biological mother, Concubine Wu Xian, lived in the northeast corner of the Forbidden City, in the east five of the Qing Palace.

In this way, Empress Dowager Sun and Concubine Wu Xian are very far apart, one is in the southwest corner of the harem, and the other is in the northeast corner of the harem.Since it is annoying to see each other, it is better to be out of sight and out of mind.

Zhu Qiyu brought Lin Xiangyu into the five institutes, and when he met Concubine Wu Xian, he knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times.

Concubine Wu Xian has a tranquil temperament and is quite fond of Taoism.Now she was dressed in a plain robe of green clothes, dressed as a Taoist nun, and said with a smile to the two of them, "Okay, get up. The new princess is here, let me have a look."

Lin Xiangyu had no choice but to stand still, Wu Xianfei pulled the little princess to look left and right, and looked at it carefully.

Concubine Wu Xian watched and shed tears.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly cried out that it's not good, this is another problem for himself.

Sure enough, without waiting for Zhu Qiyu's reaction, Concubine Wu Xian sighed: "It's really a good appearance. If you look closely, it's a bit like our princess of Han. Hey, I think our princess was also beautiful and unparalleled in the Han Palace back then. It's just a pity. None of the King of Han's family survived, and the whole line of the King of Han was cut off like this."

After hearing this, Zhu Qiyu also fell silent.The main reason is that Xuanzong was too ruthless. In the first year of Guang Xuande, he killed the nine sons of the King of Han in one go.

The Ming Dynasty has always paid attention to the friendship between relatives, and it is very, very rare to be so red-eyed like this.

After being silent for a long while, seeing Concubine Wu Xian looking at him eagerly, Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to reply: "There is too much pressure to rehabilitate the Han Palace. My son can only try his best. Whether it will succeed or not, I really can't guarantee it."

Concubine Wu Xian was overjoyed when she heard the words, and quickly thanked her: "My son has a heart, and you know that I am an old man of the Han Palace, and when I get old, I will miss the old days. I didn't mean to make things difficult for you, it's just that what happened back then is nothing to worry about. It's really hard to calm down."

Lin Xiangyu changed the topic with a smile: "My daughter-in-law has cleaned up the old palace of Han Wangfei, please move there in the next few days."

Concubine Wu Xian nodded: "Okay, you all have your heart. I don't want to live in this crappy place like the palace for a long time. It is the filial piety of your sons and daughters-in-law. I didn't expect that one day I would be able to get out of this cage and go outside. live."

Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly, Zhu Qiyu wentssiping with Concubine Wu Xian again, and then left.

Walking to the gate of Xianyang Palace, Zhu Qiyu smiled at Lin Xiangyu and said, "Go by yourself, I'm a big man, after all, it's not convenient for me to sit in the palace of the emperor's brother and concubine. I'd better take the initiative to go to the Benren Palace to see, and save money The ministers went home and arrested me again."

"Okay, your Highness, go down, be polite when you see the ministers, and don't get angry with them again, so as not to vent your anger on the servants when you get home."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said nothing, and ran all the way to Benren Hall.

The ministers were overjoyed, this was the first time that Prince Jian Guo appeared in Benren Hall on his own initiative.

Chen Xun was the first to joke, "What's the matter today, Your Highness? Your old man has always disliked government affairs. Why do you take the initiative to come here today?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "I just came back from thanking the queen mother, so I came to see if you have anything to do. If there is nothing important, I will go home and rest in the afternoon. Don't go home and arrest me."

Yu Qian hurriedly said: "Don't, don't, don't be lazy, Your Highness, our Ministry of War has too many things to play today."

"Then speak quickly."

When Yu Qian heard the words, he began to report: "King Qin's soldiers and horses have arrived in Beijing one after another. I invite each of you to reward one or two silver as encouragement."

"allow."

Yu Qian added: "Cao Tai, the procurator of Sichuan, should be executed for his crimes. He has been detained in the Ministry of Punishment for a long time. Now that the country is facing a crisis, I ask for an amnesty, and make him responsible for guarding the city and making meritorious deeds."

"allow."

"My lord, please take two-thirds of the weapons stored in Nanjing's inner warehouse for emergency use."

"allow."

Zhu Qiyu didn't want to talk anymore, anyway, no matter what the ministers said, they just agreed.

After dealing with government affairs for another half an hour, Zhu Qiyu patted his buttocks and prepared to go home and sleep.

Chen Xun, Yu Qian and others quickly held Zhu Qiyu back: "Your Highness, don't worry, there are still many important things to talk about."

When Zhu Qiyu heard that the key point was coming, he could only sit back.

Chen Xun said again: "The cabinet lost two people in the Tumu Fort, and I asked you to make up for it with Shang Ren and Peng Shi, who were compiled by the Imperial Academy."

"allow."

All the important officials present were stupefied by Zhu Qiyu, the Prince Jian Guo was very talkative today, no matter what he played, he was accurate.

Yu Qian couldn't stand it any longer, so he changed it to a question form: "Dare to ask Your Highness, who should be in charge of the Five Armies Commander's Mansion?"

Zhu Qiyu asked back: "The five governor's mansions are short of people in charge?"

Yu Qian nodded affirmatively.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to reply: "Marquis of Cheng'an, Guo Sheng, is in charge of the government affairs of the central army. Uncle Jianping, Gao Yuan, is in charge of the affairs of the governor of the left army. Xue Huan, the son-in-law captain, is in charge of the affairs of the governor of the right army.

Song Jie, Hou Songjie of Xining, is in charge of the military governor's mansion.Shi Heng was promoted to be the governor of the right, and he was in charge of the affairs of the governor of the rear army, and he was still in charge of the training of the camp.

Jiao Jing, the captain-in-law, is in charge of the Shenji Battalion, and Zhao Rong, Uncle Xincheng, is in charge of the Three Thousand Battalion. "

Hearing this, Yu Qian wanted to slap his thigh off: His Royal Highness King Qi was waiting here, but he was slack, careless, and fooled.Now, buy five and get two free. His Highness not only appointed all the commanders of the five armies in one sentence, but also appointed the chief officers of the Shenji Battalion and the Three Thousand Battalion.

Yu Qian thought about it carefully, but did not refute it.Because Zhu Qiyu's arrangement was relatively fair on the whole, the only point of controversy was the former military governor's mansion.

Originally, the former military governor's mansion was in charge of Xining Hou Songying. Last month, Song Ying died in the battle of Yanghekou. Zhu Qiyu now pushed Song Ying's eldest son, the third generation of Xining Hou Songjie, up.

Yu Qian wisely chose to shut up, because Song Ying was murdered by the Ministry of War. Zhu Qiyu was very dissatisfied with the Ministry of War. Now if the Ministry of War opposes Song Jie's ascension, Zhu Qiyu, who was already suffocated, can take the opportunity Difficulty.

Seeing that the Minister of the Ministry of War did not object, the others were even less willing to stand up and find trouble for nothing.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "Sun Jizong was promoted to command Tongzhi and take charge of Jinyi Guards. Sun Xianzong was promoted to command Qianshi and commanded Zhongcheng soldiers and horses. Sun Shaozong was promoted to command Qianshi and served as Nancheng soldiers and horses.

Qian Xiongsheng was in charge of all affairs, and he served as the commander of Dongcheng soldiers and horses. "

When Chen Xun heard this, he hurriedly reminded: "Your Highness, Sun Jizong is in charge of Jinyi Guards, that's all. The other three people have been promoted too fast, especially Queen Qian, who has always opposed giving too much reward to her family."

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "You are really real people. If the queen opposes her, we will reward us without delay. Draft the edict immediately, and it will be officially issued tomorrow."

Chen Xun had no choice but to obey the edict and not to entangle any more. After all, Queen Mother Sun would definitely not object to Zhu Qiyu's edict.Empress Dowager Sun and Zhu Qiyu both supported the matter, so what's the point of others opposing it.

To the surprise of all the ministers, Zhu Qiyu continued to say before the appointment was completed: "I was promoted to the supervisory censor of Zhejiang Province, Jixin, to be the censor of Youqian Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the admiral guarded Baoding and other places.

Promoted to the commander of the Shandong capital, Han Qing was appointed as the commander of the Daning capital, and another [-] Japanese soldiers were transferred from Shandong to Baoding for garrison.

Then he ordered Zhao Xuan, the commander of the capital of Daning, to gather [-] soldiers and practice day and night in preparation for recruitment. "

Yu Qian asked curiously: "Does Your Highness want these troops to enter Jingqin King, or to enter Zijing Pass?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Don't be too persistent about Zijing Pass, you will definitely break through Zijing Pass first, then hurry up and reach the city of Beijing in two days.

Let's give Bauhinia Pass to Wala first, and then come to the city of Beijing first, and then let Baoding's [-] troops enter Bauhinia Pass, and cut off the road first.

Then he ordered Yang Hong to bring [-] elite soldiers to Juyongguan. At that time, we will seal all the two major passes, and let him crawl back to his hometown from the ravine first.

Yexian's army has neither heavy siege equipment nor heavy artillery, so let's grasp this and bully him to death. "
