"Yuan Bin!"
Zhu Qiyu stopped Yuan Bin and asked Xi Ning,""Xi Ning, if you don't stay in front of the Grand Preceptor, how do you have the time to come here?”
He knew very well that Xi Ning had joined Yexian now, so he did not dare to offend Xi Ning too much, lest Xi Ning snitched on him in front of Yexian.
"Haha!"
Xi Ning laughed softly. He looked at Zhu Qizhen with a mocking gaze and said,"Your Majesty, the Minister of Knowledge has just returned from the Ming Dynasty. Do you know what kind of news he brought back?”
Although he felt that Bayan Timur's words were fake, this did not stop him from using them to threaten Zhu Qizhen.
"It's great that the Zhi Yuan has returned. Has the Empress Dowager paid the ransom for zhen? Are you here this time to let me go?”
Zhu Qizhen was extremely excited as he spoke.
He also knew that Bayan Timur had been sent to the Ming Dynasty to ask for the ransom, so when he heard the news of Bayan Timur's return, he was very excited.
He knew very well that Sun Ruowei would definitely pay the ransom for him, no matter how much the ransom was.
Xi Ning shook his head, his expression playful." I've disappointed Your Majesty. Lord Zhiyuan did not receive any ransom. Instead, he was humiliated."”
"What is it? This is impossible. You are lying. How could mother not pay the ransom for me?”
Zhu Qizhen was stunned and his face was filled with disbelief.
Sun Ruowei was his mother, so how could she not mention that he had to pay the ransom? This was absolutely impossible.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager wants to pay the ransom for you, but King Hun won't allow it.”
Xi Ning looked at Zhu Qizhen's appearance and a perverted pleasure rose in his heart as he continued.
To him, teasing his former master was a form of enjoyment.
"King Hun doesn't allow it. Xi Ning, what do you mean by this?”
Zhu Qizhen frowned, his face filled with confusion.
Although he had left an order for Zhu Qiyu to manage the country before he left the capital, with Zhu Qiyu's strength, could he have the right to speak?
"It means what it says. Now that King Hun controls the capital, you won't be emperor for long.”
Xi Ning said disdainfully.
"What is it? This is impossible, Zhen doesn't believe it!"
Zhu Qizhen's face was filled with shock, and his heart was in turmoil.
He really wanted to know what had happened in Beijing. Why would Xi Ning say such a thing? Was she lying to him, or did something really happen?
"Xi Ning, don't spout nonsense here. His Majesty and King Hun have a deep relationship, how can a traitor like you provoke them?”
Yuan Bin's face was cold as he berated Xi Ning.
Xi Ning shook his head and ignored Yuan Bin. He said to Zhu Qi Zhen,"Your Majesty, you should be clear that there is no kinship in the struggle for the throne. If you really don't believe me, I will bring you to Da Tong Prefecture now and see if you can open the city gate. If you are still the Great Ming Emperor, I believe that the Da Tong Defending General will open the city gate. If you don't open the city gate…"
"Shut up, Xi Ning. What are you planning to do? You made His Majesty go to Da Tong and call on him.”
Yuan Bin's face was filled with rage. His gaze towards Xi Ning was filled with dense killing intent.
If Zhu Qizhen really did that, how would he face the officials of the imperial court when he returned to Beijing? How should he face the people of Ming Dynasty? How would he face the soldiers who died defending the city?
Happy peace, his heart can be killed!
Xi Ning's face was full of smiles. He ignored Yuan Bin's murderous gaze and continued to speak to Zhu Qi Zhen,"Your Majesty, this servant has good intentions. Although this action is somewhat inappropriate, compared to the throne, which is more important?”
"Xi Ning, if you say another word, I will kill you today even if I have to risk my life.”
Yuan Bin saw that Zhu Qi Zhen was wavering and immediately became anxious as he threatened Xi Ning.
If Zhu Qizhen really did that, then he would be cursed for thousands of years.
Since ancient times, no emperor had ever done such a humiliating thing. Even Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, who had been humiliated by the Jin Kingdom, had never done such a shameful thing.
Compared to the Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was much stronger.
Compared to Song Huizong and Song Qinzong, Zhu Qizhen's current situation was much better.
"Yuan Bin, don't be unreasonable."
Zhu Qizhen's heart was in a dilemma, but he finally made a decision.
He was going to call for this door!
When Yuan Bin heard Zhu Qizhen's words, he was stunned.""Your Majesty, you…"
He was in disbelief as he stared blankly at Zhu Qizhen.
Zhu Qizhen ignored Yuan Bin and said to Xi Ning,"Zhen has agreed to the matter of knocking on the door. Go to Heaven and choose a time.”
"Your Majesty is wise. This servant will take his leave first.”
When Xi Ning heard that Zhu Qizhen had agreed to go and knock on the door, he was instantly overjoyed. He cupped his hands towards Zhu Qizhen, turned around, and left the tent.
He ran excitedly towards the tent where Yexian was.
To be honest, although he knew that Zhu Qizhen would eventually agree to knock on the door, he did not expect things to progress so smoothly.
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this?”
Yuan Bin's expression was pained. He could not understand why Zhu Qi Zhen had agreed to go and call the door.
As the emperor of Great Ming, Zhu Qizhen actually agreed to call the city gate of Great Ming. Such a ridiculous suggestion, what was he thinking?
Zhu Qizhen's face was filled with helplessness as he sighed.""Sigh... Yuan Bin, I had no choice but to agree to go and knock on the door. Although this is a little embarrassing, this is also my hope for returning to the south…"
Behind Xi Ning was Ye Xian. Zhu Qizhen was very clear about this, so he knew that Xi Ning's persuasion to visit Da Tong Prefecture was actually Ye Xian's decision.
His life was in Yexian's hands. Under such circumstances, how could he dare to go against Yexian's wishes?
In addition, if what Xi Ning said was true and Zhu Qiyu really harbored ill intentions, then he could not go against Ye Xian's wishes. A deposed Emperor would definitely have a greatly reduced value.
Previously, they didn't touch him because he was the emperor of Ming Dynasty. If they lost this identity, it was hard to say whether they would still not touch him.
"However, as the Emperor of Great Ming, Your Majesty brought the enemy to call the city gates of Great Ming. This kind of thing…"
Yuan Bin's face was filled with helplessness, and his heart was extremely conflicted.
After accompanying Zhu Qizhen for so many days, he more or less had some understanding of Zhu Qizhen's character.
He knew very well that Zhu Qizhen had agreed to go to Da Tong Prefecture to curry favor with Ye Xian and save his own life. As for the so-called return to the south, it was just an excuse.
