He also looked at the big sun overhead, and was quite depressed in his heart, he knew that this was a pretext, but he couldn't stand under the city gate and argue with the city guard whether it was dark or not, even if it wasn't dark now, it would definitely be dark after arguing for a long time, but it would definitely not work to retreat like this.

also first and then coerced Zhu Qizhen to go to the city to call the door in person, but the answer he got was that the guard Yang Hong went to the court to report on his work, but in fact, Yang Hong was holding a sharp knife behind the city gate and gave an order to the soldiers: "The one who opens the city gate will be killed." ”

encountered Yang Hong, a ruthless man who didn't eat hard and soft, and he really had no choice but to take Zhu Qizhen and hurried to Datong.

The guard of Datong is Guo Deng, although he does not have Yang Hong's adaptability, but he is bitten to death and does not open the door, even if Zhu Qizhen personally pleaded under the city gate, Guo Deng will not let go, only said that he was appointed by the imperial court to guard Datong, and he didn't know anything else.

Guo Deng is not a hard-hearted person, and after retiring first in the evening, Guo Deng secretly gathered people and horses to prepare to snatch Zhu Qizhen back from the Warat people, but unfortunately the camp in Warat was tightly guarded, and in the end it fell short.

At the beginning of September, Zhu Qiyu was made emperor by the ministers, and Zhu Qizhen became the emperor.

In this context, Zhao Yan and his entourage came to the camp of Boyan Timur, and after Gegentana communicated with Boyan Timur, Zhao Yan met the former emperor and now the emperor Zhu Qizhen.

The simple living environment, poor diet and clothing, and the tiredness of running around for days are all things that Zhu Qizhen, who was once a noble son of heaven, has never experienced, and he knows the reasons for all this, so he has been living in regret these days.

When he came to the outside of the tent where Zhu Qizhen was, Zhao Yan saw that Ha Ming was peeling sheep, Yuan Bin was making a fire and boiling water, and Zhu Qizhen was wrapped in an animal skin and looked up at Nantian in a daze.

"Your Majesty." Zhao Yan came to the front and called softly.

Zhu Qizhen turned his head, the focus of his eyes gathered on Zhao Yan's face for a long time, and it took a long while before he slowly spoke: "Zhao Shuchang, don't call me Your Majesty anymore, I have been respected as the Emperor, and now Your Majesty is the King of Yu." ”

Alas...... Zhao Yan saw that Zhu Qizhen had fallen to the ground, but he couldn't help but sigh, and then took the big bag of things from Wang Lin's hand, and introduced: "The minister brought some things to the emperor. This is a sweater woven by the ministers themselves, the effect of keeping out the cold is good, the emperor and Yuan Xiaowei, Ha Xiaowei each have a piece, these furs are padd under the body when resting at night, so that the emperor will not suffer from cold and wetness, these goose meat is hunted by the minister's junior brother, it can't be put for long, it is best to eat it as soon as possible......"

Yuan Bin and Ha Ming on the side couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Zhao Yan bring such things all at once, and Zhu Qizhen glanced at Zhao Yan lightly and asked, "What is Zhao Shuchang's position in Wara's official residence now?" ”

Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, he knew that Zhu Qizhen had misunderstood him, but now that Zhu Qizhen was in the most painful time in his life, there was no need for him to block him, so he explained: "The emperor misunderstood, the minister is still the courtier of the Ming Dynasty, and these things are all exchanged by the minister and the junior brother with their own hands." ”

Zhu Qizhen glanced suspiciously at Temur and Gegentana behind Zhao Yan, Gegentana stepped forward and said: "What he said is true, my brother thinks he is very smart and wants to ask him to be a military advisor, but he refused." ”

The king of the journal did solicit Zhao Yan, but Zhao Yan did not agree.

"This is Gergentana, the sister of the King of the Journal." Zhao Yan introduced to Zhu Qizhen.

Zhu Qizhen nodded when he heard this, and said to Zhao Yan sincerely: "It's me who blames you." ”

Zhao Yan shook his head, turned his head to Gegentana and said, "I haven't seen the Emperor Taishang for a long time, and I want to say a few words to him alone." ”

Gegentana thought for a moment, then suddenly stretched out a finger and said, "A sweater." ”

"Deal." Zhao Yan happily agreed, anyway, dozens of sheep were killed in the camp of the king of the competition every day, and he knitted sweaters when he was idle, and he had already saved more than a dozen pieces.

Zhu Qizhen saw that Zhao Yan had something to say to himself, so he got up and walked to the tent first.

Zhao Yan greeted Yuan Bin and Ha Ming, and asked them to follow up together, these two people have been guarding Zhu Qizhen every step of the way for more than a month, and the loyalty they have shown is obvious to all.

Wang Lin also wanted to follow in, but was blocked by Zhao Yan, who asked him to guard the door of the tent and not let people eavesdrop on their conversation.

After walking into the tent, Zhao Yan looked around and found that this tent was not much better than his own tent, and then he didn't look closely, and asked Zhu Qizhen directly: "Does the Emperor want to go back to the capital?" ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Naturally, I thought about it, but Boyan Timur tried it for me many times, and he didn't seem to want to let me go back." ”

Zhao Yan already had a draft in his heart, and he hit the nail on the head and said: "The minister knows why he didn't want to let the emperor go back to the capital." One is that he still has illusions and wants to use his status as the emperor to defraud more money from the imperial court, and the other is because one person ......"

Zhu Qizhen and Yuan Bin glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Xining." ”

Zhao Yan nodded and continued: "Xining is narrow-minded and forgetful of righteousness, he will definitely not be at peace after betraying the Emperor Taishang, especially afraid that the Emperor will return to the capital, if the Emperor Taishang hates him in his heart, it is easy to send him back to Beijing or kill him directly by some means, so Xining on the one hand for his own sake, on the other hand, for the sake of Wara's interests, he will never agree to let the Emperor Taishang return to Beijing, and at some point, he will even suggest that the Emperor Taishang be eliminated first." ”

Zhu Qizhen's neck was cold, and he said a little depressedly: "I asked myself if I treated him well, who knows...... Alas. ”

Ignoring Zhu Qizhen's long sigh, Zhao Yan continued: "Now Xining is the biggest obstacle to the Emperor Taishang's return to Beijing, so I have to design to get rid of it first. ”

Yuan Bin asked on the side, "What is Zhao Gongzi's plan?" ”

Zhao Yan saw that Yuan Bin hadn't seen him for a month, and the whole person was already extremely haggard, sighed in his heart, and said with a forced smile: "The Emperor Taishang and Brother Yuan call me the beauty of the table." ”

Subsequently, Zhao Yan continued: "This person may be reluctantly called a hero, but he has a weakness, that is, greed for money. ”

Seeing that a few people did not refute themselves, Zhao Yan looked at Zhu Qizhen and said: "On the way to come, I saw a lot of colleagues who were captured by Wara, among them, there may be those who are not strong-willed and have surrendered first, but there must be many people who are concerned about the Ming Dynasty, so the minister wants to ask the Emperor Taishang to appoint someone to accompany Xining to the border pass to ask for gold and silver." ”

Although Zhu Qizhen is simple, he is not stupid, the palace is never a clean place, and Zhu Qizhen is by no means an ignorant and ignorant good man and woman, he thought about it, and then asked tentatively: "Zhao ...... What does Gome mean to kill with a knife? ”

Zhao Yan nodded: "The person chosen by the Emperor must know how to cover up, otherwise I am afraid that I will fall short if I am seen by Xining halfway." ”

After plotting in the tent for a long time, Zhao Yan and Wang Lin followed Gegentana back, but Zhu Qizhen's eyes in the tent were dark and brightened again.

Early the next morning, Zhu Qizhen said that he wanted to see Yexian.

After coming first, Zhu Qizhen euphemistically revealed that he did not eat well, wore badly, and lived badly, but he could understand the hardships of the people of Warat first, so he decided to send two people to the capital to ask his younger brother for some money to come back to improve his life.

He was very happy, this was the first time that Zhu Qizhen was willing to cooperate with him to blackmail Ming Ting, so he agreed immediately, and then asked Zhu Qizhen who the envoy was and when he would leave.

Zhu Qizhen thought about it for a while, and then said casually: "Let Xining and Gao Yun go." ”

He didn't care who asked for the money, as long as he could get the money back, but it seemed that he still trusted Xining, and he didn't think about sending another Warat to oversee it.

Xining was very happy after hearing Zhu Qizhen and Yexian's appointment to herself, thinking that she was just an insignificant eunuch in the palace at the beginning, but now she wants to return to the Ming Dynasty as an envoy.

Gao Yun is just a junior officer of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, he didn't expect that he had entered Zhu Qizhen's eyes, when he learned that he was going to accompany Xining to the capital to ask for money for the Emperor, he was really a little confused, there were so many captured people next to him, why did he choose himself?

Soon Gao Yun knew the answer, and on the eve of his departure, a dark shadow flashed into the tent where Gao Yun was.

"Silence." Yuan Bin snorted lightly, and then whispered a few words in Gao Yun's ear.

Gao Yunyan didn't have too many words and movements, just lowered his head and thought about it, and then nodded in response.

Xining and Gao Yun set off, the two of them are naturally dominated by Xining, along the way Gao Yun seems to be silent, very lacking in a sense of existence, Xining did not realize that something is wrong, but thinking that if he is an official in Wara in the future, there will be no one around him to help, and occasionally deliberately marry Gao Yun, wanting to pull him under his command.

Gao Yun didn't know about Xining's wooing feints, if two or three times, Xining thought that Gao Yun was an elm pimple, and it was difficult to become a climate at all, so he no longer cared about him.

The Wara army has been wandering not far from the Great Wall, in order to find an opportunity to cut into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty to cause destruction, so Xining and the two soon came to the border town of Xuanfu outside the city.
