Chapter 38 Yao Guangxiao: Your Highness, you cheat me!

The orthodox plane of the Ming Dynasty.

After ten days of long journey, Zhu Yuanzhang led a large army back to Shuntian Prefecture.

The city gate was already crowded with ministers in the court, and countless people were watching.

After seeing the army stop, the ministers looked at each other and looked at King Zhu Qiyu.

An old minister pointed to the people around him and whispered:

"Your Highness, go and ask Your Majesty. Withdrawal of troops for no reason will make the people criticized."

King Zhu Qiyu smiled bitterly, walked into the army alone, came to the dragon chariot, and whispered:

"Brother, why are you back without saying a word? At least you can send a battle report in advance."

"Those ministers don't know if the emperor's brother is a small victory or a big victory in this battle, so let me ask."

Suddenly, a voice that made Zhu Qiyu look particularly familiar to him sounded next to him:

"Shh"

Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a moment, turned his head, and saw a soldier with a dark face blinking at him at this moment.

For some reason, Zhu Qiyu always felt that this person looked very familiar and looked very much like his elder brother.

Suddenly, Zhu Yuanzhang walked out of the dragon chariot, looked at Zhu Qiyu, and said:

"You are Zhu Qiyu, the King of Huang? You are better than that incompetent brother."

When Zhu Qiyu saw that this person was not his elder brother, his face changed. Just as he was about to speak, the soldier said in a low voice:

"Qi Yu, why don't you pay homage to Grandpa Taizu and Grandpa soon."

Zhu Qiyu listened to this familiar voice and said in disbelief:

"Brother?!!"

"Why are you so tanned?"

"You won't sit on the dragon chariot. You might have walked back, right?"

Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen's eyes flashed with tears. After pulling Zhu Qiyu to kneel down, he said in a sincere tone:

"Qi Yu, what nonsense are you talking about? This is the test of Grandpa Taizu, and it is specially taught me how to be a good emperor."

“I voluntarily.”

As he spoke, he remembered his treatment like his soldiers in the past ten days, and walked from Datong to Shuntian Prefecture step by step.

Many blood blisters were grinding out of the soles of my feet. Later, every step I took was like walking in a sea of ​​fire.

Whenever he wanted to stop, his great-grandfather would beat him with a stick, making him so angry that he would burst into tears.

If possible, Zhu Qizhen sincerely hopes that all this is a dream.

Zhu Qiyu could not think of the dark-faced and dim eyes in front of him with the energetic elder brother before his expedition.

King Yan Zhu Di walked over with a war horse and said:

"Father"

Zhu Yuanzhang turned over and said:

"The fourth brother, let's take a look at these "loyal" ministers."

Afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang issued a military order, with 200,000 troops stationed outside the city and 50,000 cavalry entering the city.

All the ministers at the gate of the city did not know what was going on, so they were "invited" to the palace by British Duke Zhang Fu and others.

Zhu Qiyu followed Zhu Qizhen in confusion and asked in a low voice:

"Brother, what happened?"

"That's really Grandpa Taizu? Grandpa?"

Zhu Qiyu, the second son of the late emperor and Zhu Qizhen's half-brother, grew up together since childhood, and he had fewer concerns when he talked.

After Zhu Qizhen walked into Shuntian Prefecture, he whispered:

"Qi Yu, after I leave, you must take care of yourself and don't make my grandfather angry."

I will go back to the Hongwu period with Grandpa Taizu and go to the main hall later.

I don’t know if I have a chance to come back now.

Zhu Qiyu blinked, feeling that his elder brother had something to say, but saw Zhu Qizhen's dark face and his dark eyes.

After pondering for a few seconds, Zhu Qiyu ran back to Prince Hui's mansion and went to tease his son who was less than one year old.

...

Royal Palace.

Inside the hall.

When the civil and military ministers of the court learned that Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong had appeared, they led 50,000 cavalry to the orthodox dynasty.

Or frightened, or panic.

But no matter what, when Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Qizhen into the hall and sat on the dragon throne, all the ministers bowed and bowed.

Although they had never seen Emperor Taizu, they still knew that the four major cases of Hongwu were killed.

Who dares to give advice?

Who dares to stop it?

Looking at Zhu Qizhen next to him, the ministers were worried.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked around and said lightly:

"Donald Zhang Fu of the British Duke told you, right? We are here this time because we can't stand the troubles of future generations and descendants in the Ming Dynasty."

"The fourth brother, bring all the "loyal ministers" up."

The next second, King Yan Zhu Di led his soldiers to press dozens of ministers into the hall.

In addition, he also produced a lot of evidence of his dealings and collusion with the Oirats.

I saw the heads, Wang Zhen, who was still in power not long ago, as well as the old ministers of the four dynasties, the Imperial Superintendent Guo Jing, and the commander of Datong Li Rang...

For a time, the evidence was confirmed, and the ministers advised them to execute these traitors.

Among them, the British Duke Zhang Fu and the military generals who followed Zhu Qizhen to personally expedition were the most angry.

They were almost killed by these Oiraneying!

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw his fourth brother working so hard, he said:

"The fourth brother, after we take Qi Zhen back to the Hongwu period, you will be the one who will be the governor of the country in the orthodox dynasty."

"You can do these traitors."

After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Qizhen out of the hall.

As Zhu Yuanzhang left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the slightly immature King of Yan Zhu Di, he couldn't help but show joy.

Zhu Di looked around and clapped his hands. A monk in black walked into the hall.

Immediately, Zhu Di said coldly:

"Duke of Britain, kill these traitors and nine clans!"

"In addition, I decided to restart the great edict and purify the administration of the government. Yao Guangxiao, you will be responsible for this matter."

...

With the issuance of imperial edicts, everyone present collapsed as King Yan Zhu Di prepared to build the Zhengtong Dynasty into the second Hongwu Dynasty.

Especially those corrupt officials who embezzled more than 60 taels of silver were even more depressed.

...

After the court was dispersed, Yao Guangxiao watched the ministers leave unconsciously and persuaded:

"Your Highness, don't be too impatient."

King Yan Zhu Di said indifferently:

"What do you think I asked you to help me? I just ordered you and left you with all other matters."

"If I don't have a good governance of the dynasty, before my father punishes me, I will first throw you into a prison for imperial decree."

"You are a great hero who helped me Fengtian Jingshen. How can you be so miserable in a trivial matter?"

For a moment, Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but remain speechless.

He didn't know that he would be so powerful in the future. This decisive and decisive King Yan really has the appearance of an emperor?

...

Zhu Yuanzhang walked in the palace and saw that it was exactly the same as the palace in Yingtian Mansion, and asked:

"We heard that those ministers and ministers all call them Wang Zhen's father?"

"You still call him sir? Since you respect Wang Zhen so much, why don't you just give up the throne to him?"

Zhu Qizhen followed Zhu Yuanzhang carefully and said submissively:

"What Grandpa Taizu taught me is that I should not favor eunuchs, nor should I do anything wrong."

After these ten days of torture, Zhu Qizhen understood a truth: Grandpa Taizu is always right.

Suddenly, Empress Dowager Sun hurried over from a distance. When she saw Zhu Qizhen, she said with pain:

"Your Majesty, why do you look like this when you go out?"

"Why don't you remove your Majesty's armor?"

While speaking, Empress Dowager Sun trembled and stretched out her hand and stroked Zhu Qizhen's tanned face.

Zhu Qizhen quickly waved his hand to ask the palace maids to retreat and said:

"My mother, I'm fine."

"This is Grandpa Taizu."
