"Empress Dowager, you can't."
"Empress Dowager, we can take the money, but what if they don't release His Majesty after taking the money?”
"Empress Dowager, you can't take this money."
“......”
Yu Qian, Wang Zhi, Hu Bi, Jin Lian, and the others all went forward to persuade Sun Ruowei.
They also did not expect that Sun Ruowei had lived in the palace for so many years. How could she still be so childish?
With the savagery of the Mobei tribe, if they were to hand over the money so easily, Zhu Qizhen would definitely not be able to return. Not only that, but they would definitely become even more aggressive and continue to demand money from Ming.
After all, who would be willing to let go of a God of Fortune?
"What do you want?" Sun Ruowei's face was gloomy and she said angrily. Could it be that he really wanted the emperor to die in Mobei?”
After Yu Qian, Wang Zhi, and the others reminded her, she was also worried that Yexian would not keep his promise. However, now that she had no room to bargain, she could only bet that Yexian would keep his promise.
"It's just a bit of money. If it can be exchanged for His Majesty's safe return, then it's undoubtedly very profitable.”
"That's right. His Majesty is hunting in the north. As officials, we should naturally do our best to welcome His Majesty back to the court.”
“......”
Chen Mao, Zhang Wei, and the others said.
Their goal was the same as Sun Ruowei's. They wanted to bring Zhu Qizhen back as soon as possible. Only when Zhu Qizhen returned could they arm wrestle with Zhu Qiyu and even complete the counterattack.
"This…"
Yu Qian, Wang Zhi, and the others looked at each other. Although they were very unwilling in their hearts, they couldn't say anything to refute Sun Ruowei, Chen Mao, and Zhang Wei's words.
This concerned the safety of the Emperor. Who could, who dared to say that the Emperor should die?
Even if it was a projection, no one dared to do so.
If he told them about this, it would be a great crime to exterminate his entire family in the future.
When Sun Ruowei saw that Yu Qian, Wang Zhi, and the others were no longer talking, she smiled."Lord Messenger, I wonder how much money does Grand Preceptor want Great Ming to pay before he is willing to release the Emperor.”
Ming has a lot of money.
Even if the national treasury did not have it, they could find an excuse to collect it from the people. As long as Zhu Qizhen could return safely, no matter how much money they had, it would not be a problem.
Bayan Timur saw Sun Ruowei's attitude and his heart moved. He temporarily doubled the number that he had originally set: "The Emperor is the ruler of a country. Grand Preceptor wants Great Ming to take out twelve pieces of Nine Dragon Python Dragon Silk, twelve pieces of pearls, five hundred taels of gold, and one thousand taels of silver.”
Although this sum of money was not small, it was obviously not enough for Zhu Qizhen, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Don't think that this was a sign of sincerity.
On the contrary, Yi Xian had no sincerity at all. From the beginning, he had no intention of releasing Zhu Qizhen. Asking for this money was just a test to Da Ming.
"Alright, according to Grand Preceptor's words, please ask the messenger to follow this widow into the palace to get the money.”
Sun Ruowei didn't even think about it and directly agreed.
She thought that he would ask for too much, but it was just a little money. Under such circumstances, she was too lazy to even bargain and directly let Bayan Timur follow him into the palace to get the money.
"This... Am I asking for less?"
Bayan Timur was a little confused. Sun Ruowei's attitude made him wonder if he was asking for too little.
However, since things had already come to this, he could not go back on his word. After all, he had already doubled the number he had originally set. Moreover, he knew very well that he would not release Zhu Qizhen for now.
Forget it this time. Since Da Ming was so concerned about Zhu Qi Zhen's safety, he had to ask for an exorbitant price the next time. Otherwise, he would feel a little sorry for the importance he had placed on him.
"Empress Dowager is muddle-headed!"
Yu Qian, Wang Zhi, Hu Fu, Jin Lian, and the others were dumbfounded when they saw Sun Ruowei agree so readily.
If they had only been suspicious before, they were now 100% sure that they would not let Zhu Qizhen come back.
If he was in Yexian's position, he would definitely not let go of a gold mine like Zhu Qizhen easily.
"Hu…"
Wang Zhi took a deep breath and stepped forward."Empress Dowager…"
Sun Ruowei seemed to understand what Wang Zhi wanted to say and directly interrupted him. She asked coldly,"Wang Zhi, do you want the Emperor to die in the Northern Desert?”
In order to save her son, she had gone crazy. Whoever stopped her would be her enemy.
"Uh..."
Wang Zhi's words froze on the spot. A bitter expression appeared on his face as he shook his head and retreated.
At this moment, he was extremely depressed. His good intentions had been completely treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. There was no need to mention the uncomfortable feeling.
Chen Mao and Zhang Tao looked at each other. Although they felt that Sun Ruowei's behavior was a little inappropriate, they didn't say anything.
One reason was that Sun Ruowei's current mood was not right. She looked like she would bite whoever she caught.
Secondly, they had a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
What if Yixian was really a person who kept his promise and let them go after taking the money?
"Empress Dowager is wise!"
Bayan Timur praised Sun Ruowei and was about to follow Sun Ruowei to get the money. As for why there were so many corpses in front of him, this was not the time to think about it. He could slowly think about it on the way back to Wasi. If he really could not figure it out, he would report it to Yexian and let Yexian think about it.
"Tsk tsk, you are really stupid…"
Zhu Qiyu looked at Sun Ruowei's series of actions and couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart. He even wanted to let it go.
However, the persistence in his heart finally made him unable to sit idly by. It did not matter whether Zhu Qizhen was dead or alive, but the persistence of the four emperors of Ming Dynasty, he could not let Sun Ruowei destroy it like this."Taizu once said that the Great Ming Dynasty would not marry, cede territory, pay tribute, or pay reparations. May I ask Empress Dowager, can your act of using money to redeem Imperial Brother be considered reparations?”
