Chapter Forty-Nine: Tatar Tribute! (Please follow up!) )
Inshou Palace.
Outer Temple.
"It's insane!" Sun Ruowei swept everything within reach of the Eight Immortals Table to the ground, including the box of soft glutinous pastries that Queen Wang had just offered.
"Hundreds of thousands of teachers, the whole world is looking forward to a chance for peace, the emperor acts like this, and when he sees the Tatar envoys, he just asks the mourning family, is there still me as the queen mother in his eyes?"
Outside Renshou Palace, the palace people gathered together and watched the whispers inside.
"What's going on?"
A palace lady who served in the Renshou Hall whispered: "I don't know, I saw that this morning Niangniang was furious and slapped a lot of people." ”
"Yesterday, a Tartar sent an envoy to come, and His Majesty received him in the Qianqing Palace, and it is said that he spoke sharply and scolded the Tartar envoy back." The other Gong'e said mysteriously.
Hearing this, many palace people gathered over.
"Huh?" A palace lady from the Qianqing Palace said: "Even so, the Queen Mother reprimanded these two like this in front of everyone, it's a bit too much, right?" ”
The two in her words naturally refer to Zhu Di and Queen Wang, who are standing in the Renshou Palace.
A female official hurriedly covered the mouth of Gong E, who had just spoken: "Moth, I don't want to live anymore, the Queen Mother is what you can say?" Get out of the way, don't gather here. ”
"Let the ministers of the foreign dynasty see it, what kind of system will it become?"
Inside the temple.
Wang Cheng, the brand of the Qianqing Palace who came with him, stopped the little eunuch who was about to come forward to sprinkle and sweep, and went over to clean up the mess, while saying:
"Queen Mother, you should use this pastry, how to say it is also the queen's heart."
Sun Ruo was in a trance for a moment, and raised his hand to slap him: "The matter of mourning the family, it is your turn for a eunuch to talk too much here?" Girl, slap him in the face! ”
"Such a dog thing, if you don't teach a lesson, it's turned upside down!"
After that, he went up to two palace ladies, one left and one right, and opened at Wang Cheng.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
Wang Cheng didn't expect the Queen Mother to be so unreasonable, and she actually beat people in front of the emperor and the empress, covering her face and crying bitterly.
"Oh, don't fight the Queen Mother!"
Seeing Wang Cheng being beaten and told for mercy again and again, Queen Wang couldn't sit still.
"Queen Mother, you are going too far!"
"How can Wang Cheng say that it is also the brand of Qianqing Palace, he is the person next to His Majesty, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, right?"
"Look, concubine, you're not hitting him, you're hitting Your Majesty in the face!"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment and glanced at Wang.
This guy, is he so upright...
This kind of thing is said in front of everyone?
Sun Ruowei swept away the pastries sent by Wang's family, in fact, it was not because the pastries were unpalatable, she gave Wang Cheng a slap and beat him with her mouth, but in fact, she didn't want to simply lose her temper.
She was slapping herself, the emperor, in the face, and the face of the empress Wang who was sitting next to her.
Sun Ruowei is using the topic to play to highlight her status in the harem, but in fact, the root cause is because she met the Tatar envoy alone yesterday, and she didn't know anything about it.
Sun Ruowei didn't seem to expect that Queen Wang would explain it directly, and after a moment, she said coldly: "What, does the queen think that the mourning family is wrong?" ”
Wang Shi immediately said: "I don't know if it's wrong, what the Queen Mother wants to say, everyone knows it, so spread it out!" Don't play eunuchs by borrowing questions! ”
Zhu Di couldn't sit still.
If you let the Wang family quarrel again, you will be unreasonable, and it is not in accordance with the etiquette law to speak like this, and it will be held by the civil officials when it is transmitted to the foreign court.
After a while, Wang Cheng had been beaten to the ground, his left and right sides of his face were swollen, and the corners of his mouth were overflowing with blood.
The female officer of Renjudian waved her hand and was about to continue fighting.
Wang Cheng also closed his eyes and was waiting, but he didn't feel anything after waiting for a long time, so he slowly opened his eyes and saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.
Zhu Di didn't know when he stood up, the cold morning breeze and shadows were sufficient, but standing there seemed to be standing up to the sky, giving people a feeling that he couldn't be denied.
"Stop."
Zhu Di caught the female official's hand and glanced at her lightly.
The female officer clearly saw a trace of killing intent from those eyes, trembled all over, and immediately let go of her hand and retreated, never daring to be presumptuous again.
Then, Zhu Di turned his head to Sun Ruowei and said, "If the Queen Mother mentions this to me, I have to ask, who has to fight this battle?" ”
"Is it all the people of the world, is it me, is it Tatar?"
"Neither."
"I'm not competing with the Queen Mother, and I'm too lazy to dig through any old accounts, I'm fighting for Tumubao, and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and their families who lost money are asking for justice!"
"They are all living people, they can't just die so unexplained and meaningless!"
Zhu Di did it to Wang's side, signaled her to be relieved with his eyes, and continued to ask: "Does the Queen Mother know why I am so tough?" ”
"You don't know, you don't know anything, so you're here to criticize me?"
"Na Tokhbuhua led the Tatar army to loot more than 80 places of my Liaodong Castle outside Guangning City, and more than 10,000 people were robbed by them!"
"More than 10,000 mouths, does the Queen Mother know what this means?"
Sun Ruowei really didn't know the general military situation at all, and she didn't know that Tatars, who seemed to be subservient, could do so many hurtful things.
For a while, I didn't know how to answer.
However, Zhu Di would not give her a chance to react at all, standing up and pacing back and forth in the hall, so that all her words could be heard clearly by everyone.
"This shows that at this moment, tens of thousands of people are suffering from the loss of their loved ones, and all they can count on is the imperial court!"
"If I make peace with the Tatars so easily, what will happen to the more than 10,000 people who have been taken captive? Shall they be humiliated to death in the wilderness? Let them be enslaved to death by the Mongols? ”
"Their parents, wives and children, husbands, how should they think of me as the emperor!"
Every word is heart-wrenching.
In the Renshou Palace, which was still noisy just now, it was as quiet as ever.
Queen Wang looked at her husband stupidly, Zhu Qiyu, who used to have a weak personality, and never felt that he was so charming.
Now Zhu Qiyu is really like a husband in her heart, like a great tomorrow who carries all the people on her shoulders.
At this time, there was a commotion outside Renshou Palace.
"Good news!"
"Queen, Queen Mother, Your Majesty..." The little eunuch who ran in was a little confused, and he didn't know how to salute that first, and he was even more frightened when he saw this formation.
Zhu Di asked, "What's the matter, can't you wait for a while to talk about horses?" ”
Sun Ruowei has been suppressed by Zhu Di's momentum, and finally found the conversation at this time, and immediately said: "Say!" The mourning family asked you to say it now! ”
After all, the little eunuch didn't dare to offend the queen mother, and hurriedly said: "It's a report from the border pass, saying that the Tatar chieftain has accepted the terms of my court and withdrawn his troops back!" ”
"What, you actually agreed?" Sun Ruowei stood up with a look of disbelief.
Hearing this, there was a lot of discussion in the Renshou Palace, and many palace people even changed their eyes when they looked at Zhu Di.
"Yes, the Empress Dowager, the Tatar chieftain took no time to discuss overnight, and finally decided to accept the terms of my court, which is called a show of sincerity, and will return all the captive population within the next half a month."
"Then send an envoy to Beijing to discuss the matter of tribute with Your Majesty!"
