Xiao Ran did not know how to continue.
Zhu Qizhen's humiliating life had only just begun when he was captured.
"Old Master, calm down. Don't be angry. It's not worth it.”Xiao Ran quickly comforted Zhu Di.
"Phew ~" Zhu Di let out a long breath and took a few deep breaths."Xiaoran, continue. I can handle it."”
"Why don't we talk about it later?"
Zhu Di pulled Xiaoran's arm." If you don't tell me today, I'll feel uneasy."”
Xiao Ran nodded helplessly and could only continue,""After capturing Zhu Qizhen, Grand Preceptor Wala was both worried and happy. He was happy that he had captured the Ming Emperor, but he was worried that he didn't know whether to kill him or not. It was his younger brother Bayan Timur who suggested that the emperor of Ming Dynasty was a rare commodity, so it was better to keep him and ask for property from Ming Dynasty. He also thought that this suggestion was good, so he spared the Emperor's life.”
"I also wanted to use the name of the emperor to swindle people, but unfortunately, the people led by Yu Qian did not agree. The ministers led by Yu Qian suggested to Empress Dowager Zhang that the country could not be without a ruler for a day, let alone in this time of crisis. As a result, Zhu Qiyu, King of Hun, was made emperor, and Zhu Qizhen, who was captured, was honored as the Retired Emperor. At the same time, he ordered the generals at the border not to interact with Wala privately. Even if Wala used the name of High Emperor, they could ignore him.”
"This useless bastard! Why didn't he commit suicide? Why don't you go and die!"
If Zhu Qizhen had committed suicide, he would not have been humiliated. The humiliation would have been his choice to live.
Zhu Di gritted his teeth so hard that he wanted to strangle Zhu Qizhen to death.
"Old Master, it's not necessary. Calm down!”
"Hu ~" Zhu Di took a few deep breaths."Yu Qian did the right thing. The old man didn't misjudge him. What happened after that?"”
"Yexian flew into a rage out of humiliation and led his army to attack Jingdou. At that time, there were not many defenders in Jingdou, and the hope of defending was very slim. Many people advocated moving south and returning to Nanjing.”
"And then?" Zhu Di was extremely nervous.
"It was still Yu Qian who stood against public opinion and firmly opposed the move to the south. He also shouted,'Those who advocate moving to the south can be beheaded, but Jingdou is the foundation of the country that cannot be shaken.' He did not want the Ming Dynasty to repeat the mistakes of the Southern Song Dynasty.”
Zhu Di heaved a sigh of relief." Yu Qian! He was truly an unparalleled scholar! What's behind it?"
"Yu Qian wanted the new emperor, Zhu Qiyu, to retreat, leaving Yu Qian and the others to protect Jingdou, but Zhu Qiyu refused. He insisted on living and dying with Jingdou.”
"You're still a little hot-blooded. You didn't embarrass our ancestors.”
Xiao Ran continued," Yu Qian commanded, and Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian also personally charged into the battle. The people of Jingdou were united as one, and all of them were soldiers. They protected Jingdou despite the disparity in strength and even heavily injured Wala.”
"That's why later generations say that Yu Qian turned the tide and extended the Ming Dynasty's life for two hundred years.”
"Good! There was no danger! Zhu Qiyu is also good!"
Zhu Di was also worried. At this time, the Ming Dynasty might be destroyed, or it might be as peaceful as the Southern Song Dynasty. These were not what Zhu Di wanted to see.
"After the good sage grandson passed away, Yu Qian was no longer put in an important position. He was pushed out of the court and was ordered to save the Great Ming in danger.”
Zhu Di nodded, feeling extremely grateful." If it weren't for Yu Qian…" He really didn't dare to imagine that Scholar Peerless deserved it. Amazing!”
"Things didn't end here. Afterwards, in order to disgust Da Ming, Wala released Zhu Qizhen.”
Zhu Di frowned. He naturally understood what Wala wanted to do. Letting Zhu Qizhen back at this time was to disgust Great Ming and cause internal strife.
"And then?"
"A few years later, Zhu Qizhen was restored and killed Zhu Qiyu and all of Zhu Qiyu's meritorious officials, including Yu Qian who saved Great Ming!”
Zhu Di almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Scholar Peerless was too valuable. He was the only outstanding talent in the country. That was why he was called Scholar Peerless.
"Unfilial son! A fatuous ruler! Why would my Zhu family have such an unfilial son!”
Zhu Di's blood pressure suddenly rose.
"Killing Yu Qian caused Zhu Qizhen to be placed on the pillar of shame in history. He became the lowest evaluation among the emperors and the most typical negative example.”
Zhu Di felt terrible.
