What was that?
When did the Ming Dynasty become so corrupt that a 9-year-old child was in charge of the government?
Back then, it was already ridiculous enough to hear that the Great Ming Dynasty now had the Empress Dowager in charge of the court. Now, it was the nine-year-old emperor who was in charge of the government. Did this mean that the Great Ming Dynasty was going to die, and that the descendants of the Great Yuan Dynasty were welcoming the spring of restoration?
The leaders of the other three tribes asked in surprise,""Is the news reliable? Are you telling the truth?"
"I've already sent people to investigate. How can it be fake? Now is the best time for us to launch a large-scale attack on Great Ming. Don't you all want to follow me across the Great Wall, plunder everything in the Central Plains, kill all the Han people, and avenge our ancestors?”
Yexian's words made the leaders 'blood boil and they were eager to give it a try.
What was there to be afraid of a 9-year-old?
The Tartar leader raised his glass and said to Yexian,""Yexian Khan, today, the four tribes of our grasslands have sworn an oath of blood. Longevity Heaven above, bless the horses of our grasslands to trample the Central Plains.”
"F * ck! Tame the Central Plains!"
"F * ck! Cross the Great Wall and kill all the Han people!”
……
The news of the Imperial Brother-in-law's death in the imperial prison quickly reached the ears of the Grand Empress Dowager Zhang Yan. The pain of losing her brother made her grieve.
A few strands of her hair had turned white in one night.
Zhu Qizhen's unkindness made her heart bleed.
Zhang Yan lay on the bed, her eyes empty and desperate. She muttered to herself," I only have one younger brother…I only have one younger brother…"
"Empress Dowager's condolences." Sun Ruowei sighed.
"Get lost, get lost! It's all your son's fault!"
"Empress Dowager, please protect your phoenix body.”
Sun Ruowei left Chuxiu Palace, her expression becoming colder and colder.
Shuang Xi followed behind Sun Ruowei and pouted."Niangniang, don't you think the emperor has gone too far? You're the one who took the blame for the things he caused…"
"You can't differentiate between high and low, who asked you to accuse the emperor behind his back and stir up trouble? Slap!"
Shuang Xi quickly slapped her own face and said with a trembling voice,"This servant knows her mistake."
It was understandable that the Empress Dowager would vent her anger on her.
Who asked her son, the son of the True Dragon Son of Heaven, to give his uncle the death penalty with a wave of his pen?
In the future, those members of the imperial family would feel threatened and would complain about Zhu Qizhen, feeling that he was cold and heartless.
Laws and human feelings.
This was indeed a difficult choice.
If she had to choose, she would definitely follow her heart and choose to protect everyone and abandon the small family.
There was no right or wrong in everything. It just depended on which angle one looked at the problem from.
To the country, Zhu Qizhen was a wise emperor, but to the family, Zhu Qizhen had become a heartless imperial grandson.
Generations of emperors were like this. Being alone was not just a joke.
……
Zhu Qizhen spent the entire night in Yangxin Palace Hall, sleeping until he woke up naturally.
"Wang Zhen, come in and help me change my clothes and prepare for the morning court session.”
The personal eunuch immediately entered Zhu Qizhen's bedroom and carefully served him.
Morning court.
Palace of Heavenly Purity.
The ministers had already stood in two rows in the main hall, discussing the matter of Cao Xiang, the governor of the five armies, assassinating the Emperor.
Cries of condemnation and curses continued, and they all felt deep disdain for Cao Xiang's actions.
As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he should respect the imperial power. How could he rebel?
If you do more injustice, you'll die.
The ministers would only regard Cao Xiang's fate as a blasphemy against the imperial power, making them fear the imperial power even more.
When the nine-year-old emperor was in charge of the government, the anger he displayed had already convinced the ministers.
Yet at this time, someone who didn't want to live jumped out. What a sin!
As for the five armies, after Zhao Yun gave the order, Cao Xiang's old subordinates and trusted aides immediately cut ties with Cao Xiang.
How did the 9-year-old Tian Zi find out about the rebellion?
They had personally gone to court today to beg for forgiveness. They only hoped that the Emperor would be magnanimous and spare their lives.
At the age of 9, the emperor ascended the dragon throne and the ministers knelt down.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor!”
"Beloved ministers, rise. Have the people from the five armies arrived?"
Cao Xiang's former subordinates from the Five Armies 'Governor's Office immediately came out of their ranks and prostrated themselves on the ground.
"This subject is sentenced to death.”
"This matter was all planned by Cao Xiang alone. We were all instructed by him.”
"These are all evidence of Cao Xiang's conspiracy. I beg the emperor to show mercy and spare us.”
The ministers were all shocked.
There were really people who were not afraid of death and dared to touch the reverse scale of a 9-year-old emperor.
Once the emperor was angry, another storm would probably rise in the court!
However, the storm that the ministers thought would happen did not come. The nine-year-old Emperor suddenly said to the people of the Five Military Governors,""Hand over your commander's seal and your family will be safe.”
Conspiracy to rebel, this was a crime that could kill nine generations.
Now that these people had all taken the initiative to admit their crimes, they could be given a lighter sentence. However, whether or not they would harm their families would depend on whether they were willing to hand over the commander's seal.
In ancient times, the commander's seal was the only symbol of leading an army.
If he wanted to rule the world, this commander's seal was extremely important.
The generals looked at each other and handed over the commander's seal without hesitation.
Wang Zhen handed the Commander Tally to Zhu Qizhen.
Zhu Qizhen held the commander's seal and played with it. He shook his head somewhat regretfully and said,"Take him away and choose a day to be executed.”
The imperial guards rushed in and took all the generals away.
The majestic imperial power made all the officials at the foot of the steps tremble in fear at Zhu Qizhen's feet…
