In the Ming Dynasty, there were only three or four emperors who had issued an edict against themselves, such as Tianshun, Zhengde, Tianqi and Chongzhen.

Tianshun Emperor Zhu Qizhen issued an edict because of a big defeat in the "Tumubao Change".

Zhengde and Tianqi thought that their actions had angered the heavens because of an unexpected disaster, and they had to make an edict to calm the people.

Chongzhen is the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, during his reign natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, so he issued several edicts, the most famous of which is the edict before the hanging-"I die, I have no face to see my ancestors in the ground, I go to the crown, cover my face with hair, let the thief split the corpse, do not hurt the people......"

All in all, the edict of guilt is not casually issued, except for the earthquake and fire that represents the curse of heaven, once the emperor issued the edict, it means that there has been a serious mistake in the ruling policy, which has endangered the foundation of the country, the emperor himself expressed the most profound review of this, and often swears in the edict of guilt, in the future, we must change our minds, change the past, please supervise Yunyun.

The emperor is the supreme ruler of a country, and he can "write and check" so sincerely, even if he makes a big mistake, there is no reason to continue to hold on to it, and Emperor Longwu suddenly handed over such an inspection, and also announced the abolition of the Longwu New Deal, and the "opposition party alliance" formed by civil officials and nobles immediately split.

Divisions first arose within the Donglin Party.

A part of the officials headed by Yang Tinglin made it clear that since Emperor Longwu had withdrawn his fate, the Donglin Party could not carry out another coup d'état, otherwise it would be in the history books in the future. Everyone will become traitors like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, and they will be infamous for thousands of years, if Lu Daqi insists on going his own way. You can only choose to break up.

You must know that deposing the emperor is by no means a trivial matter, if the Donglin Party insists on overthrowing Emperor Longwu at this time, it will not be simply unforgiving, but seeking power and usurping the country, and naked rebellion will inevitably become the finger of thousands of people. It was attacked by a group of people from all sides, and finally ended up dead without a place to be buried!

"Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. Since the Holy Lord has repented, we should rein in the precipice and do our best to assist the Holy Lord in the future and put the country on the right path as soon as possible......" Yang Tinglin has changed his title to Emperor Longwu back. From now on it has become holy.

"I said it. This is a retreat as a strategy, and the Holy One may not truly repent, but must have leaked the news! Lu Daqi was very unwilling, he stook all his life for this coup, and he had already jumped to the front in person, and there was no way out. If you give up like this now, in the future, when Emperor Longwu stabilizes his position, there will definitely be a day when the autumn queen will settle accounts.

Chen Zizhuang next to him suddenly sighed. Yu Yu said: "Regardless of whether the Holy One is truly repentant or not, he can't move now. Even if the first self-gong (Lu Daqi) can convince Mr. Kanshan (Yang Tinglin), can he still convince Mr. Xianggang (He Wuqi) them? Alas...... that's it, that's it, that's it! I can't imagine that the saint still has such a means, the Gui Domain is far behind, and the imperial court Zhengshuo doesn't know when it will be restored! ”

Chen Zizhuang was a giant of the Donglin Party and a sympathizer of the pro-Gui faction, and when he saw that Emperor Longwu had such a political skill, he lost confidence in Zhu Youlang, the king of Gui, for the first time.

"This ......, even if He Wuyu retracts, it doesn't matter!" Lu Daqi still held on to a trace of luck, gritted his teeth and cheered everyone up: "We have Chen Bangfu's soldiers and horses to help, enough to deal with the Yongfeng Battalion and the Royal Forest Army, as long as three hundred armor are stationed in the palace, and persuade the current Shang to issue a Zen edict, the Southern Party can only bow down and obey orders!" ”

If you can't play with Emperor Longwu with your wrist, then you can only take risks and solve it by force, put a knife on your neck, or snatch the jade seal and directly forge the edict, Lu Daqi is now considering these extreme measures.

Chen Zizhuang sneered again and again: "Hmph! Hum! Let's wake up early! If there is no great fault in the Holy One, how can you send all the armies into the city to admonish you? Even if there are thousands of armor soldiers entering the palace, as long as the saint ascends to the heights, it will immediately collapse, and when the time comes, the nine clans of Zhulian, the old man is not willing to accompany you to death! ”

As he spoke, he stood up and glanced at Yang Tinglin, and the two walked out together, everything that should be said was done, and they had to leave this place of right and wrong, lest the hot-headed Lu Daqi suddenly turn his face. This coup d'état is doomed to be aborted, and the most important thing now is to draw a clear line with Lu Daqi as much as possible, reduce his own crimes, and strive to keep his head from falling off.

Lu Daqi was so confused at this time that he forgot to stop him for a while, and only after they left, did he suddenly come to his senses, and hurriedly ordered someone to chase after Chen Zizhuang and Yang Tinglin to see where they went.

"Such a person at both ends of the rat is not enough to make a big deal! Yang Tinglin, shouldn't he go to the palace to tell the truth, right? ”

After waiting anxiously for a long time, the henchmen sent out came back to report, after Chen Zizhuang and Yang Tinglin left, they quickly separated, one went to find the first assistant He Wusu, and the other went to find Zhu Yuhui, the king of Tang.

Lu Daqi slapped the table, shocked and angry, and shouted to his subordinates: "Quick, prepare the sedan chair quickly, go to Tang Wangfu!" ”

……

On the day that Emperor Longwu promulgated the edict of self-sin, the city of Guilin seemed to be hit by a storm, and the civil and military officials and the princes and nobles were panicked and uneasy, and each tried their best to deal with this sudden change.

The response of the Southern Party was the fastest, and He Wuyu immediately ordered Guo Weijing to readjust the deployment of the garrison inside and outside Guilin, put the Yongfeng Battalion and the Imperial Forest Army loyal to Emperor Longwu in a critical position, guarded the surroundings of the palace, and strictly inspected the city gates.

The Southern Party has been on the sidelines during this time, and the Donglin Party is about to separate, and now the shape has suddenly changed, they are very active, after Emperor Longwu issued the edict of guilt, in this attempted coup has been firmly won, he is in urgent need of a large number of supporters, and it is still too late to stand in line.

When the first move of the court was closely watched by the civil officials, seeing that He Wufu had made a clear choice, and the Donglin party giants Chen Zizhuang and Yang Tinglin also "defected" one after another, those neutral officials who were still waiting and watching knew that the victory and defeat had been divided, and they did not hesitate to throw themselves into the camp of the victors, and expressed their support for Emperor Longwu.

At the same time, the eunuchs in the inner court and the Jinyi guards suddenly became high-profile.

The eunuch Wang Kun, the eunuch of the celebrant of the seal, and the eunuch Pang Tianshou of the pen, and the two bigwigs of the inner court joined hands to break the routine and directly took over the power of the "vote" of the chapter, and the cabinet was paralyzed, but He Wuqi and Fu Guan and others had no objection to this.

Jinyiwei also made a sudden move, and was ordered to purge the Imperial Forest Army, and within one day, Ti Cai continued to dispatch, throwing more than a dozen generals such as General Yan Yun into the edict, breaking the last trace of luck of Lu Daqi and others. Without Yan Yun's cooperation, Chen Bangfu's soldiers and horses would not be able to enter the city, and there would be no chance if they wanted to fight to the death.

Tang King Zhu Yuhui reacted the slowest, and only in the evening did he ask for permission to enter the palace and ask Emperor Longwu for guilt, and the two talked secretly for half an hour, and when Tang Wang left, his eyes were red, and he obviously cried.

That night, Chen Bangfu also received the news that his troops immediately stopped advancing towards Guilin, turned to the northwest, and headed in the direction of Guizhou. After dawn, Chen Bangfu's envoy felt that Guilin had reported to Guo Weijing that he was ready to lead his troops north to fight the Qing army, and asked the emperor to give him approval.

By this time, Lu Daqi had already been defeated, and he simply hid at home and pretended to be sick, and he didn't even go to the early dynasty of the sixth day of the first month.

Early in the morning, there were quite a group of civil officials with high morale and were ready to step on Lu Daqi a few times, but they had just started before they were stopped by Emperor Longwu.

"Mr. Xianzi has always been loyal, I am the most important, he was unable to participate in the court meeting today due to illness, what is the matter later." Emperor Longwu knew very well that now it was time to settle accounts after the autumn, so he diverted the topic and said: "After the abolition of the new policy, there will be a lot of waste to be rebuilt, how to clean up the mess, you Aiqing may wish to talk about it." ”

Civil officials, you look at me, I look at you, no one speaks.

Everyone is a human spirit, and they all know that Emperor Longwu's guilty edict may not be out of his original intention, and it is probably not a good idea to be a leader at this time.

But in addition to the Tang Dynasty, the other princes and nobles were not direct participants in this attempted coup, and many people didn't even know that Lu Daqi had such great ambitions, and they were very happy to see Emperor Longwu promulgating the edict of guilt, thinking that he finally bowed his head and succumbed, and the contest about Longwu's new policy was over, and now was the time to reap the fruits of victory.

The princes and nobles headed by the King of Liao stood up, and while affirming that Emperor Longwu had lost his way and had returned, he once again severely refuted the Longwu New Deal, and analyzed it in pieces, and put forward clear objections to rent and interest reduction, investigation of the administration of officials, rectification of salt administration, etc., and demanded that Emperor Longwu immediately issue a specific decree to restore the chaos of the Longwu New Deal to its original state.

With the princes and nobles taking the lead, many civil officials are no longer worried, and have spoken out to express their support, this time it is inseparable from the emperor, isn't it the interests of the gentry and landlords? Since Emperor Longwu has been relented, of course, he must implement the measures to correct the new policy.

Even if there is a ghost in his heart like He Wuyu, he did not shrink back, and discussed with Emperor Longwu one by one, although this coup has been aborted, but it must not be too weak, otherwise when Emperor Longwu and the Chu Xun group counterattack, everyone will not be able to eat and walk around.

The officials of the Chuxun Group were very low-key, Fu Guan and the others almost didn't say a word, in the eyes of those who didn't know the inside story, they were like defeated roosters, hiding in the corner, worried about their fate.

On the emperor's throne, Emperor Longwu always had a modest smile on his face, but secretly he was angry. (To be continued......)
