Chapter 370: Determine the overall situation

Surrounded by many internal officials and female officials, the queen mother came to the Yongsu Palace.

She is already fifty years old, but despite this, according to the regulations, it is still inconvenient to show her head in front of a foreign man. However, at the moment, she could not care about this.

The Wu family, who had been dormant for many years, was about to move at this time, thinking about the resentment that had accumulated into magma in Wu's heart, as well as her eagerness to come out, the queen mother suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

It's not impossible to change someone to get to the pole! This is exactly the state of mind of the Queen Mother at the moment. Living in the harem for more than 20 years, her insight into the mysteries of the government is not under Jiuqing, but she is a deep palace woman after all, and she can't see the big chess game of the tense confrontation between the Ming Dynasty and Wara, she thinks that in the matter of supporting the new monarch, she can take into account social and private interests, but she doesn't know that by different people as emperors, the direction of the government will be very different, which is related to where the Ming Dynasty will go!

Hu Hu and Wang Zhi came out of the Yongsu Hall one after another, with a solemn posture, their eyebrows and eyes lowered, and they didn't dare to look directly at the queen mother in front of them.

"I respectfully ask the Empress Dowager to move to the Yongsu Palace!"

The Queen Mother slowly glanced over the palace road, searching for the figure of King Xiang. However, what caught her eye was a young, handsome face.

King Yue? The queen mother's eyes froze, for some reason, she was still determined, but when she saw Zhu Qiming, she became a little overwhelmed in a blink of an eye.

Zhu Qiming stopped at a distance from the Empress Dowager, and the internal officials and female officials hurriedly bowed and retreated, they did not dare to touch the light of the Empress Dowager, standing beside the Empress Dowager and accepting the great gift of the prince.

"Qi Ming, the king of Chenyue, knocks on the queen mother!"

"King Yue, you ยทยทยทยทยทยท Get up quickly. "The Queen Mother was a little surprised, why did her speech become less fluent?" King Yue, what are you here to do? You are fine now, don't mention the past, the mourning family will make decisions for you and give you an explanation. If someone embarrasses you in the future, the mourning family will never sit idly by! โ€

Zhu Qiming straightened up and glanced at Hu Hu and Wang Zhi over there.

"Ministers don't think about themselves, they only think about the society. The minister dared to ask the queen mother, let King Xiang ascend to the pole, where is the ethical outline of the royal family? How should the Son of Heaven address the Queen Mother, and the current Emperor? โ€

The Queen Mother was stunned.

If King Xiang is made the emperor, King Xiang and the Queen Mother are uncles and sisters-in-law, and the current emperor is an uncle-nephew relationship, but King Xiang, as the Son of Heaven, wants to call his sister-in-law the Queen Mother and his nephew the Emperor, this scene mode makes people feel extremely funny!

The Queen Mother gritted her teeth, "In troubled times, you must know how to be flexible, and the mourning family will definitely not be confined to small things and ignore the righteousness!" โ€

"Righteousness?" Zhu Qiming said calmly: "King Yu is your concubine, King Yu ascends to the pole, and you are still a well-deserved queen mother." If someone else ascends to the pole, the name is not right, and countless scholars will be waiting outside the noon gate! โ€

"So what!" The queen mother's eyes were full of anger, and she said sharply: "Whoever is the emperor will attract criticism, and the mourning family must make a decision!" โ€

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, and the internal officials and female officials quietly retreated farther away.

Hu Hu walked slowly. Wang Zhi hesitated for a moment, but remained in place.

"The Queen Mother, King Yue is young and vigorous, and it is understandable. His Royal Highness the King of Yue, the army is newly defeated, the community is in danger, at this time it must be brought forward by the old man to clean up the mess, the king only wants to fight, but the soldiers are fierce, at this time rashly fight in Wara, the people in the capital are unstable, and the situation will become extremely critical! And Your Highness, you brought out a group of murderous Xun Qi family members, and instigated the Xun Qi children to find revenge on the Warat people, Your Highness should restrain those people, otherwise, if someone insists on going to the north to cause trouble without consulting the ministers of the court and the central government, the consequences will be unimaginable! โ€

Zhu Qiming looked at Hu Hu coldly, and there was no longer half a point of gentleness and elegance in his expression, "Hu Shangshu, Chen Tang of the Han Dynasty once said: All major national affairs must be agreed by the minister before they can be carried out, but extraordinary strategies are not something that those mediocre people can imagine, so once the worldly conspiracy is discussed by the minister, it is extremely difficult to be recognized. Chen Tang pretended to pass on the holy decree, led an expedition to a foreign land, and killed the Xiongnu Zhizhi Shan Yu, a snow country for many years of shame, so that the Han regained the respect of the Western Regions. Chen Tang wrote to Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, saying, 'Those who commit crimes against the strong Han will be punished even if they are far away!' After the incident, Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty did not investigate Chen Tang's guilt, but named him the Marquis of Guannei. May I ask Hu Shangshu, is Chen Tang a criminal minister and Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty a faint monarch? Now why should I worry about the children of Xun Qi getting into trouble? If there is a reincarnation of Chen Tang, this is the blessing of the community! โ€

Hu Hu paused, "This time and that time!" The army is newly defeated, and I must endure and try to change! โ€

"Everyone is knocking on the door, and they are still thinking about forbearance and trying to change, which is ridiculous!" Zhu Qiming scolded angrily, and he couldn't care about maintaining the minimum respect for the old ministers of the tired dynasty.

"Hu Shangshu would rather be like the Song Dynasty, losing money and bribes to Hu Lu one after another, abandoning the territory all the way, allowing people to slaughter the city, leaving hundreds of people to suffer the ravages of Hu Lu's iron cavalry, rather than like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the whole country lived a hard life, supported the army to defeat the Xiongnu, and reversed the national situation of the Han and the Xiongnu, right?"

"Pathetic!" Zhu Qiming shouted, startling the internal officials and female officials in the distance, and even the queen mother's eyelids jumped in response.

"The Song Dynasty forbears from the Yellow River to the West Lake, and from the West Lake to the sea, so that 'there is no China after the cliff mountain', in the final analysis, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty just thought that it was better to die than to live, and only cared about their own safety!"

"Your Highness, please be careful!" Hu Hu said loudly.

Zhu Qiming suppressed his anger and closed his eyes and pondered. He must dismantle the wishful thinking of a group of old ministers, so that the fantasy queen mother can quickly wake up.

"If the king guesses correctly, Hu Shangshu and others support King Xiang to ascend the throne, and must have reached an agreement with King Xiang to make peace with the Warat people first, and if peace fails, the capital will be moved to Nanjing, right? However, once the imperial court crosses to the south, the current emperor will become the second emperor of Huiqin, can he still return! โ€

Hu Huo was stunned. The heated debate with Zhu Qiming a year ago greatly reduced the credibility of this tired old minister, so at this moment, he didn't dare to deny it, because any denial could not stand the test of time, and the time to test the success of the words of the tired old minister was close at hand, and once Zhu Qiming's prediction came true, the denial at this moment would only make him, a tired old minister, ruined, and the scholar ashamed to be with him!

In this era of Confucian rule, blatantly lying is tantamount to digging one's own grave!

Seeing Hu Hu stunned there, the Queen Mother finally realized the seriousness of the situation. Yes, whether the emperor can return or not, this is the top priority she has to pay attention to!

The Queen Mother stared at Hu Hu for a long time, and the disappointment in her eyes appeared with tears.

Could it be that his insistence on letting King Xiang ascend the throne really stem from his own impulse? The thought had been in her mind for a long time.

Suddenly, the figure on the other side of the palace road flickered, and I saw King Xiang appear. He was forty-four years old at the time, and his appearance was very elegant, and every gesture implied a gentleman's demeanor, leaving an excellent first impression.

The Empress Dowager hurriedly glanced at King Xiang, who was belatedly coming, and there was not much expectation in her eyes. She quickly turned her head and quietly looked at Zhu Qiming.

Zhu Qiming stared coldly at the fifth uncle king who was getting closer and closer, and the corners of his mouth hung with determination, "It's okay for an uncle to take the nephew's position, then like the emperor's great-ancestor Emperor Yongle, raise troops to take it, and pass Qi Ming's pass first!" โ€

The words rolled over the heads of the crowd like thunder. King Xiang was shocked, hurriedly stopped, and quietly retreated.

The Empress Dowager hid her face and wept for a moment, then moved closer to Zhu Qiming, "You should choose a day to meet the crown prince." The mourning family can teach the crown prince, but the future of the crown prince may depend on you! After finishing speaking, she walked away, and in the blink of an eye, the crowd followed, covering her extremely lonely figure.

King Yu strode in, and King Xiang was long gone.

At this moment, Jin Ying came from another palace road, "His Royal Highness King Yu, the thirteen imperial histories and the six branches have been handed over to the matter to impeach Hu Shangshu, saying that Geng Feng and Wu Yu, a man and a woman, sued Hu Shangshu's nephew Hu Qing for forcibly occupying Mintian and committing murder. โ€

King Yu casually glanced at the scene, but his eyes never fell on Hu Hu.

The corners of Hu Hu's mouth twitched slightly, his face changed for a while, and he suddenly bowed to the ground, "I respectfully ask His Royal Highness King Yu to move to Yongsu Palace." โ€
