Seven hundred and fifty-five The Emperor's Honesty

As the night wore on, most of the people slept, but there were always some people who were so busy that they couldn't sleep all night.

Xiao Ruxun couldn't sleep, her heart was heavy, so she simply got up and lit a candle and wrote a letter to her family in the tent.

I didn't go home for more than half a year, and although I wrote a lot of letters back, I still couldn't help but worry about the situation of my wife and children.

Lifting the pen to put his thoughts and worries on paper, Xiao Ruxun also kept recalling the good times with his relatives, and suddenly, a breeze blew, Xiao Ruxun raised his eyes and saw a man in black kneeling not far in front of him.

"Governor Xiao, Your Majesty is invited."

Xiao Ruxun frowned.

"Where are the guards outside my tent?"

"My life is fine, I just went to sleep, please forgive Governor Xiao, Your Majesty specially instructed that this matter is very important, and no outsiders should know about it, including Governor Xiao's personal guards."

Xiao Ruxun took a deep breath.

"You're different from the guy I've seen before, so why should I trust you?"

The man took out a token, slowly stood up, took two steps forward, and presented it to Xiao Ruxun with both hands, Xiao Ruxun saw that it was indeed the token, and then looked at the man in black who showed his true face, and nodded slowly.

"Now that the Governor knows, how do I go? Does Your Majesty have any arrangements? ”

"Your Majesty has already made arrangements, and I will ensure that Governor Xiao will return within two hours, and please ask Governor Xiao to come with me."

As soon as the man in black stretched out his hand, Xiao Ruxun stood up, changed his clothes, blew out the candles, walked outside the tent, and saw two "soldiers" wearing Zhennan Army uniforms standing outside the tent saluting Xiao Ruxun.

"This is specially arranged, but no one enters the tent when Governor Xiao is not there, and the rest of the things will be arranged by Governor Xiao when he returns." The Man in Black explained.

"You've got a good preparation."

Xiao Ruxun looked at the man in black with an unkind face.

"For Your Majesty, please also ask for Governor Xiao's understanding."

Xiao Ruxun didn't say anything anymore.

It's been more than half a year since I last saw Zhu Yijun, I went with his entrustment, and now I'm back with brilliant results, which can be regarded as living up to my trust, Xiao Ruxun is open in his heart, as for Zhu Yijun's secret summons in the middle of the night, it must be a great deal to think about it.

Xiao Ruxun did not speculate.

But he also seemed to realize something.

Soon, at the place where he and Zhu Yijun met two times before, he saw Zhu Yijun again.

"Chen Xiao Ruxun greets Your Majesty!"

"Aiqing, please get up!"

Zhu Yijun is very happy to be able to see Xiao Ruxun again, for this general who dares to defy the world's disapproval and tell him the truth, Zhu Yijun's trust in him is naturally incomprehensible, this trust can be compared with Zhang Cheng, although Xiao Ruxun is leading the troops, but Zhu Yijun has never worried that Xiao Ruxun will support the army and respect himself.

It's better to say that he doesn't have time to care about these things now, and he is already anxious just to face the ministers.

"Aiqing, after half a year, you have lost weight."

Zhu Yijun held Xiao Ruxun's hand, with sincerity in his eyes.

Xiao Ruxun smiled slightly: "It is the minister's wish to do something tangible for the Ming Dynasty, and now he can live up to His Majesty's trust to annihilate all the northern captives, and the minister can come back to see Your Majesty." ”

"The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, the only person who can really share my worries is Aiqing, and the rest of the people are well-dressed, but they are not as good as a eunuch, and they hide the truth from me, making me think that the Ming Dynasty is a peaceful and prosperous era, if it weren't for Xiao Aiqing telling me the truth, I'm afraid I won't be able to know the truth in my life."

Zhu Yijun held Xiao Ruxun's hand harder and harder, then lowered his throat and whispered to Xiao Ruxun: "I asked Xiao Aiqing to come in the starry night, Xiao Aiqing knows why?" ”

Xiao Ruxun shook his head: "I don't know, does Your Majesty have anything else to explain to the minister?" ”

Zhu Yijun nodded: "Didn't you notice that there was something missing from my side?" ”

Xiao Ruxun looked around, feeling a little disobedient.

"This ...... That's right! Why aren't His Majesty's attendants there? ”

It stands to reason that even if it is secretly summoned, the most confidant of the emperor's side can be present, but the big eunuch Zhang Cheng, whom Xiao Ruxun had dealt with before, is nowhere to be found.

"Aiqing is smart, Zhang Cheng is now the supervisor of the East Factory arranged by me."

Xiao Ruxun was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the emperor meant.

"Your Majesty means to say ......"

"The former Dongchang factory supervisor Zhang Whale deceived me, has been taken by me, Zhang Cheng is loyal to me, I will reuse Zhang Cheng, in addition, the commander of the Jinyi Guard Luo Sigong also deceived me, I prepared for the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, find a suitable person to replace it, take it down."

Zhu Yijun's words were murderous.

"Is it because ...... What happened in Shanxi? ”

Xiao Ruxun suddenly understood.

"That's right, the matter in Shanxi is really too big, such a big thing, I don't believe that Jinyiwei and Dongchang haven't heard any rumors, but they have never told me, deceived me, as my eyes and ears, they do this, it is a betrayal of me, and I will never tolerate them."

Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "This time I contacted Xiao Aiqing, the one I used was a dark line arranged by me that was different from that of Jinyiwei, this dark line is only known to me and Zhang Cheng, Jinyiwei does not know, Luo Sigong is also monitored by me, and the Empress Dowager's palace is also full of my people, and now the entire inner palace is under my control." ”

The more Xiao Ruxun listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.

What does the emperor mean by this?

Also involved in the Queen Mother?

Seeing Xiao Ruxun's confused expression, Zhu Yijun said: "There are some things that can be explained to Aiqing, not to mention that I was worried that this matter would disturb Aiqing's mind and make Aiqing unable to fight against the Beiyu with all his might. ”

"Your Majesty...... What do you mean? ”

Xiao Ruxun was confused.

"Three years ago, after the end of the Korean War, Aiqing led his troops from the Wa Kingdom to Tianjin Wei, and then came to Beijing to offer prisoners to me, and during this period, I did one thing."

Xiao Ruxun hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask Your Majesty, what's the matter?" ”

"At that time, Zhang Wei, the deputy assistant of the cabinet, led the ministers to force me to the palace many times, forcing me to establish a prince, and if I did not establish a prince for a day, they would not stop for a day, and regarded the laws and regulations of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty as nothing, and regarded my majesty as nothing, so that I had no face, and let me be seen as a joke by all the people, and I couldn't bear it, so I secretly ordered the people around me to leave the Beijing division with a secret letter, and prepared to summon Aiqing to lead troops into the king of Jingqin."

"Lead the troops...... Enter the king of Beijing? ”

Xiao Ruxun was shocked.

I have to say that for Xiao Ruxun, who has spent six years in Daming and has become more and more accustomed to life in Daming, the meaning of these words is still quite large.

The significance of bringing troops into Beijing and King Qin was to ask Xiao Ruxun to assist the emperor in launching a mutiny.

Launch a mutiny, take control of the capital, and let the emperor use his military power to launch a counterattack on the ministers, control the ministers, and even ...... Slaughter.

The mutiny led by the emperor himself......

Has Zhu Yijun reached the level of a puppet emperor?
