Chapter 55: The Chair (Part II)
Chapter 55: The Chair (Medium)
"Your Majestyββ!" In an instant, Dingzhu, Wang Jianu and others exclaimed one by one.
Everyone has long discovered that since Tuhuan Timur was obsessed with the secret method of playing butterflies, his mind has become more and more wrong. But I never expected that my emperor was already so confused!
If you want to Zen, what did you do earlier? Tens of thousands of fellow clans died, and the entire Great Yuan Empire was also shattered, so you finally figured it out and wanted to give the Zen position to your son. Who should bear the responsibility for the many disasters caused by the cannibalism between father and son in the past?
Indeed, if you take a step back, you can become the emperor and continue to live and dream of death, but what about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty? In the past six months, they have been at your behest and have killed the supporters of the crown prince's side all over the place. When the crown prince comes back with his troops and inherits the throne, how can they still survive?
No, the emperor must not be allowed to take the throne! Almost in the next instant, several humeral ministers made the same decision, no longer caring about the conflict between them.
And it is said that His Majesty the Emperor made a ridiculous decision when he made a fork when he was practicing lewd skills. Even if he was sane now, the civil and military forces could not allow him to give up on himself. If he does not pass on the throne to the crown prince, everyone assists him to resist the Zhu butcher, even if he is defeated and captured, at most he will spend money to redeem himself, and then go to be a rich man with peace of mind. And if the crown prince Aiyu knows Ridhara back, at least half of the people here will die without a place to be buried!
"Why did Your Majesty say this, the national crisis is at the head, Your Majesty should cheer up and prepare for war. How can there be a reason for passive evasion and self-chaos?! "Among the people present, Zuo Prime Minister He has the best skills and the fastest reaction. Three steps and two steps crossed the right phase pillar that was so shocked that he couldn't give up, caught up with Tuhuan Timur, who was hiding his face and walking, and grabbed the latter's wrist.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zuo's words are very kind!" Yue Kuo Cha'er rushed forward with two dark blue eye sockets, and grabbed the other arm of Tuhuan Timur hard, "The ministers and other kings are disrespectful, and they are willing to accept the punishment." But please Your Majesty for the sake of the people's livelihood, don't have the idea of abandoning the country! β
"Your Majesty, the Immortal Heaven has given you the inheritance of your ancestors, how can you retreat in the face of difficulties and disgrace the ancestors of the Golden Family?!"
"Your Majesty, don't abandon your ministers, your ministers are guilty, and they are willing to receive any punishment!"
Dingzhu, Wang Jianu, Sang Ge Lili and others finally reacted and spoke loudly one after another.
But Timur turned a deaf ear to the exhortations of the people. Just with tears in his eyes, he kept shaking his head, "I'm not dry, I've done enough." Who do you like to give this throne to? Over the years, I've been harmed by it and have nothing left. I've had enough, I don't want to sit on this broken bed anymore! β
It seems to have the world, but in fact there is nothing. Anyone who understands Timur's experience every year is almost unmoved after hearing it. Yes, for the sake of a throne, I lost my father and mother first, and then forced my aunt and the first queen to death with my own hands. Then he sent the general horn to a dead end, and turned against the milk brother and the milk brother who rolled together from childhood to adulthood. Not long after, the most appreciated son and the most beloved concubine also rebelled together and stabbed him in the heart
It's no wonder that he is obsessed with the secret method of playing butterflies, and it is no wonder that he suddenly has a heartbeat. Ordinary people have gone through so many tribulations, I am afraid that if they did not die, they would have become crazy long ago. And the Great Yuan Emperor, the Tuhuan Timur of the Jin family, must inherit it and continue to watch the rebels attack his own capital.
However, sympathy is sympathy, and no one dares to let Tuhuan Timur get his wish. Immediately, the right minister Dingzhu widened his eyes and shouted loudly, "This is a chaotic order, please forgive your majesty for not daring to obey the edict!" β
"This is a chaotic order, please forgive your majesty for not daring to obey the edict!" He Wei and Yue Kuo Cha'er looked at each other, both knelt down, and repeated in unison. The five fingers that grabbed Tuhuan Timur's wrist did not dare to relax at all.
"This is a chaotic order, please forgive your majesty for not daring to obey the edict!" The rest of Wang Jianu, Sangge Lost, Ballu Timur and others also stepped forward to dissuade them. There has never been a moment when the civil and military ministers of the Great Yuan Dynasty have been so neatly unified.
"I'm not going to do it, I'm not going to do it, you're waiting, you're waiting for me to make a decree as soon as possible! Replace me, call the prince back for me to take the throne. I, I will allow him to bring his troops back to the capital! Bring as much as you want! In the face of the joint "direct advice" of more than a dozen humerus ministers, Timur's response was still those few words. I don't deserve this emperor, whoever loves to be it. Anyway, I have already said that I will pass the throne to the crown prince, and from now on I will pick a son.
"Zhongshu Province does not dare to obey the order!" Prime Minister Dingzhu was so angry that his eyes turned black, and he gritted his teeth and shook his head.
"The Privy Council does not dare to obey the order!" Zuo Xianghe was the only one, the privy deputy envoy Li Siqi, and the sparse deputy envoy Ballu Timur bowed down at the same time and loudly disobeyed.
"Your Majesty, please forgive Yu Shitai for his life!" Although Wang Jianu is a courtier who can only pat on the back, he is also open at this moment, gritting his teeth and expressing his position.
The power structure of the Great Yuan Dynasty was imitated in the Great Song Dynasty and inherited from the Tang Dynasty. The combination of the three supreme authorities is enough to refute the vast majority of the decrees, rendering them ineffective and completely dead letter.
Tuhuan Timur has been the Great Yuan Emperor for so many years, of course he knows that Dingzhu and others have the power to join forces to refute their holy decree. However, at this moment, his way of thinking cannot be inferred by common sense at all. First looked at the top of everyone's heads in a daze, and then suddenly shook his head and smiled, "Is it resistant?" In this way, you don't take me seriously as an emperor for a long time! Why should I not be nostalgic? Cui Chengshou, come over to draft the decree for me, and then hand it over to the national teacher, and ask him to send someone to Jining immediately! β
In order to avoid the excessive power of Zhongshu Province and the infringement of imperial power, the original bureaucratic structure of the Great Yuan Dynasty also borrowed from the practices of the Tang and Song dynasties and retained the emperor's power to issue central decrees. Such a decree does not need the consent of the hundred officials, nor does it need to be attached to the seal of the Chinese Book Province, and can be sent directly to the recipient. As for whether or not to obey the order, it depends on the personal decision of the person receiving the order.
If you don't let you ascend the throne, you have to rebel and force the palace, and you can go back to the capital to be the emperor, how can the crown prince Aiyu Zhili Dala refuse to obey the edict? Even if Dingzhu and the others think with their toes, they can figure out how the prince's family will react when this central decree is transmitted to Jining.
Bringing troops to the capital to "go to the national disaster together" is the simplest and most justifiable way. Before the Huai'an army killed the capital, they crossed the Flying Fox Ridge and went straight to the Bauhinia Pass. With the decree given to him by Tuhuan Timur in his hand, the generals along the way had no reason to stop him. And once the prince enters the capital, whether to "clear the king's side" first, or not to blame the past, and join forces with the defenders to prepare to resist Zhu Chongjiu, it is completely up to him. At that time, no one can stop it in the slightest!
Thinking of the ruthless purge that he had done to assist Tuhuan Timur in the past six months against the prince Aiyu Zhili Dala and his family, all the civil and military forces were distracted. But none of them was the original minister of power, and no one was the former minister of power, Yan Timur, and he couldn't have the courage to force the emperor to admit his mistake to himself. I could only watch the eunuch Cui Chengshou step forward and pick up a pen and paper, and helped Tuhuan Timur draft the edict of succession word by word.
"My lord, there is a way to cure heart disease in the last general's hometown." Just when everyone was in a dilemma, the Baoyi Army Daru Huachi, and the newly promoted deputy governor of the Privy Council, Li Siqi, suddenly bit down and stepped forward to the right Xiangding pillar.
"Heart disease?!" Dingzhu paused for a moment, and then responded with some suspicion, "Do you think Your Majesty is sick?" Indeed, Your Majesty must be sick, come on, hurry up and pass on the imperial doctor! β
"Yes!" The cowardly Xue Rumeng, who was stunned in the Dongnuan Pavilion, was pardoned and promised to run out quickly.
They are all sons and nephews of the nobles of the dynasty, and they are all too clear about the consequences of the power struggle. If the crown prince returns and becomes the emperor, although their status is low, it is difficult for them to guarantee that they will not be implicated by the families behind them.
"My lord, this disease is strange, and I am afraid that the doctor will not be able to cure it! The home remedies in the last general's hometown have the fastest effect, I don't know if the adults can allow the last general to give it a try! Li Siqi didn't want to wait any longer, shook his head, and continued to ask eagerly.
"This?" Dingzhu hesitated and dragged his voice long. The other important ministers present were all Mongols, including Zuo Chenghe, although the names and surnames were all Han family standards, but their ancestors were also given Mongolian citizenship "because of merit". Only Li Siqi, although he has a heavy army, is a genuine Han family son, and it is really impossible to rest assured that the safety of Tuhuan Timur will be in his hands.
"Oh, at this time, what are you hesitating about, what can you do, just use it!" The imperial historian Wang Jianu is much more anxious than Dingzhu. Seeing that the decree was about to be written, he was so anxious that he stamped his feet and responded loudly.
"Order!" Li Siqi, the deputy governor of the Privy Council, was waiting for his words. Regardless of whether there is a subordinate relationship between the two parties, he immediately bowed down and received the order. Immediately, he suddenly picked up the golden gourd dropped by Tuhuan Timur from the ground, and the wheel was about to get up, and with a "poof", Cui Chengshou, who was drafting the holy decree, was beaten up!
"Save the ββ!" Tuhuan Timur, who was fighting with his ministers, was so frightened that he struggled to escape to the harem. His two arms, however, were held in the hands of He Wei and Yue Kuo Cha'er respectively, and he didn't have time to pull them out. With the other two staggering, they all fell into a rolling gourd in an instant.
"Help!" The other civil servants were also frightened, and they hugged their heads and shouted to hide against the wall. The generals bowed their heads to find a suitable family, ready to fight to the death with Li Siqi.
"Don't get me wrong, the last general is treating His Majesty!" Li Siqi was disdainful of their reaction, and before the cowardly Xue on duty rushed in, he struck the pillar of the temple with a golden gourd, and the sound of "bell" shook the top of the Dongnuan Pavilion. "Your Majesty, Right Minister, Ladies and Gentlemen. The last general impeached Eunuch Cui for colluding with the national teacher Jia Xuanzhen and murdering the emperor with witchcraft. Please ask Your Majesty for permission to kill the traitorous monks together with all the adults, and clean up the harem for Your Majesty. β
Note: Correction, in the previous section, "On the tenth day of the first month of February, Zhao Liangchen, the prefect of Caozhou, dedicated the city to the Huai thief", it should be "On the tenth day of the first month of February, Zhao Liangchen, the prefect of Gunzhou, dedicated the city to the Huai thief". I made a mistake in writing a word, and it was hundreds of miles off, sorry.
