Previously, Yu Qian had already taken 40,000 Xuanfu troops south, and now the emperor was going to send another 60,000 Beijing troops stationed in Datong.

Coupled with Wang Ji's original army of more than 100,000, the total number of troops involved in the pacification of the Miao Rebellion exceeded 200,000.

The ministers felt that the emperor's absurdity had flare up again, and it was enough to fight against Warat with more than 200,000 troops, so could he be so excited?

Luo Tong stood up and asked: "Your Majesty, now that the soldiers of the five military battalions and the three thousand battalions are all stationed in Datong, if they are transferred to the south, I am afraid that the garrison of the capital will be a little empty." ”

Zhu Qiyu patiently explained: "You don't know what the chaos has become in the south. The Emperor Taishang transferred too many Jingying troops, resulting in the emptiness of the north, which was the fundamental reason for the Tumubao Change.

The long pain is better than the short pain, and I decided to change the Beijing camp to the two-Beijing system. After that, the five military battalions and the 3,000 battalions were assigned to the Nanjing Beijing camp as a whole, and then the current Nanjing Beijing camp was completely reorganized.

In the future, if there was a rebellion in the south, the Nanjing Jingying would send a large army to suppress it, so as to increase the response speed of the Beijing army and enhance the control of the imperial court over the south. ”

Chen Xun, Wang Wen, Luo Tong and others understood at once: Good guys, the emperor does not plan to let the five military battalions, the three thousand battalions, and the army led by Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji and Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao return to Beijing again.

However, everyone can also understand that if the 200,000 pro-emperor troops come back in one go, it will really cost the emperor's life.

Even if these armies do not rebel, the emperor should not think about being stable when he sleeps at night, for fear that he will wake up with nightmares at every turn.

And on this point, the interests of the ministers and the emperor are the same, and they also do not want to see so many pro-emperor troops appear in Beijing.

The matter of supporting the new monarch was originally done by the ministers in front of them, Wang Zhi, Hu Hui, Shang Chen, and Peng Shi, who were close to the emperor, and the neutral Wang Ao and Yu Qian had been driven away, and no one among the remaining ministers wanted to see the restoration of the emperor.

If the sky really changes again, everyone present can end up going home and holding the child, it is already the ancestors who accumulate virtue.

So no one will be idle enough to get along with themselves, the ministers passed the emperor's edict without any suspense, and then looked forward together, began to discuss the upcoming Zhengdan Dynasty, and prepared to welcome the new beginning of the first day of the Jingtai Dynasty.

Yu Shiyue, who is also the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, began to stand up and report: "Your Majesty, according to the news compiled by the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, His Royal Highness King Min and King Xiang are expected to arrive in Beijing early tomorrow morning.

The king of Dongwu and Xiwu is expected to arrive in Beijing in seven days.

In addition, there is also Meng Yuan's great sweat to get off and not to spend, and it is expected to arrive in Beijing within three days.

Other feudal kings and local civil and military officials have begun to arrive in Beijing one after another.

The Ministry of Rites and the Honglu Temple have prepared for the reception, and if there is anything else that needs special attention, please let Your Majesty show you. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "When the king of Dongwu County arrived in Beijing, I personally went out of the city twenty miles to greet him. In Beijing, the king of the vassal and the civil and military officials of the fifth rank and above must all go with me.

If anyone doesn't go, make a list and give it to me. “

Yu Shiyue didn't say much, just took orders. After all, the emperor has already made his attitude clear, and the ministers have not objected to it before, and now it will be a trick for the ministers to talk about it when the matter comes.

The kings and ministers talked about some trivial matters again, and then they dispersed.

Zhu Qiyu returned to the room leisurely and urged the concubines to prepare meals.

At noon today, I will have a banquet for all the people of the middle school, and arrange other positions for some people. Then slowly select a group of new people to come in.

There was still time before noon, Bai Gui, Xiang Zhong, Ye Sheng and others were still dealing with government affairs in the West Flower Hall, while He Yi appeared in the Hanlin Academy very rarely.

He Yi was the editor of the Hanlin Academy at the beginning, and the emperor has never removed He Yi's editing position, so He Yi is not outside, and as soon as he enters the Hanlin Academy, he greeted his colleagues one by one with a smile on his face.

Liu Dingzhi, who has always liked to joke very much, waved his hand at He Yi, and said with a smile: "Oh, the scholar is here, I have met the scholar later." ”

He Yi smiled and said: "Seniors, don't scold me, don't say that I'm just a little right concubine, even if the first assistant of the dynasty comes, I can't afford to be the sect master of the literary world." ”

Liu Dingzhi pulled He Yi and asked a question that everyone was concerned about: "Xingyi, what did you say happened in the inner court yesterday?" Hearing that Empress Qian's health was uncertain, the saint was angry and killed all the palace people in the Qianqing Palace. ”

He Yi shirked and said: "I don't know the inside story, I'm really tired from following the army to the grassland, and I've been staying in the house to sleep lately." I haven't seen the saint in the past two days, and I want to hear some gossip from you. ”

When everyone heard this, they began to talk about it again. The dignified wife of the emperor, the queen who is marrying the Ming media, was actually lame by the palace people, if there is no inside story here, which fool will believe it.

However, the emperor dealt with it very quickly, and without even a trial, he killed all the palace people. Moreover, the chief eunuch of the inner court has been replaced by the emperor, and now the inner court can be called a change of heaven.

The celebrant supervisor was presided over by the previous Jin Ying and Xing Anquan, and became governed by Chen Mian, Ruan An, Wang Jin, Wang Cheng, Shu Liang, Zhang Yong, and Wang Qin, a total of seven people.

The great talents of the Hanlin Academy have privately given the new eunuch in charge of the celebrant a good name. It is called the Seven Eunuchs of the Celebrants, which means that they are the seven powerful eunuchs of the Celebrant Eunuchs.

And all the courtiers can see that Jin Ying and Xing'an will definitely not come back. Even if you come back, don't think about being in power again. The eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant has died in name only.

Wang Cheng, Shu Liang, Zhang Yong, and Wang Qin all know that the hardcore emperor's cronies, in the current situation, it is impossible to stand on the side of the emperor in general.

So everyone's attention is focused on speculating on the positions of Chen Mian, Ruan An, and Wang Jin.

Who is neutral, who is the emperor's cronies, and who are the emperor's cronies?

After only staying for a while, He Yi found an excuse and ran out of the Hanlin Academy. Just come back and report to the office, and if you stay any longer, it's time for your colleagues to 'interrogate prisoners'.

He Yike didn't dare to reveal the emperor's secrets, so he had to run first as a respect.

Out of the Hanlin Academy, He Yi prepared to take the middle bridge of the Jade River, and then go to the Zhan Mansion where he worked to report the way.

Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, I heard someone behind me shouting, "Brother Xingyi, please stay." ”

He Yi looked back, and it turned out to be Yue Zheng, a tanhua lang who was in the same department as himself. Yue Zheng was also a jinshi in the middle of last year, and he had a good temperament, he was knowledgeable, and he was a leader in the younger generation at the age of 30.

He Yi had recommended Yue Zheng to Zhu Qiyu before, and when the Emperor Taishang was still in power, Yue Zheng wrote a recital at home, asking the orthodox emperor to restore Hu Shanxiang's title as queen. It's a pity that halfway through writing, he was discovered by his brother and stopped Yue Zheng on the grounds that it would harm his mother.

Yue Zheng stopped He Yi, he was a little anxious, and wanted to ask He Yi for some advice. After all, He Yi, who is in the same department, is about to take off, and he is still in the position of editing in the Hanlin Academy, and he doesn't know when he will be the leader.

The two chatted, and He Yi told the truth: "Brother Ji Fang, the junior brother recommended it to the saint." The saint also knew that Brother Ji Fang was young and talented, and he was loyal.

The most sorrowful thing about the saint now is that the Ming Dynasty did not have unparalleled warriors like Yu Rang and Shen Baoxu who did not spare their lives and were not afraid of all difficulties.

Brother Ji Fang already had the ambition to uphold justice for Queen Hu, but why did he take care of himself and give up halfway.

Could it be that Ling Tang is the mother of Brother Ji Fang, and the queen of Queen Hu's kingdom, isn't he the mother of Brother Ji Fang? ”

When Yue Zheng heard this, he fell into deep thought, and after a while, he gave He Yi a deep look: "Queen Hu's mother is the mother of the world and the mother of a country." I am a minister, and Empress Hu is naturally my mother.

Before, I was cowardly and narrow-minded, ashamed and ashamed. Brother Xingyi's words, the foolish brother has been taught, and I will go back to write a notebook. ”

He Yi hurriedly praised: "Daming actually has loyal ministers, this book is on the book, and the king's heart will be greatly relieved." Brother Ji Fang's talent is ten times better than that of the younger brother, and he will make contributions and make great achievements in the future, which is just around the corner. ”

Yue Zheng said that he would do it, said goodbye to He Yi, hurriedly returned home, called his brother, and came to his mother together.

Yue Zheng didn't say much, bowed his head and bowed on the one hand, and wept bitterly on the other.

Yue Zheng's mother was puzzled, and asked curiously: "My son went out this morning, what happened to him?" ”

Yue Zheng replied while crying: "My son decided to write to the court and ask for Empress Hu to be reinstated. The son had already written a recital before, but he was stopped by the eldest brother after discovering it.

Now that my son has figured it out, this recital must be written, and it must be submitted to His Majesty.

If the son loses his life because of this, the mother's nurturing grace can only be repaid in the next life. ”

Yue Zheng's brother Yue Rui was shocked when he heard this, and was about to teach a lesson.

Yue Zheng's mother waved her hand: "That's it, my son is loyal and willing, and he will die regardless of it." If I stop it, then I will not become an unfaithful and unrighteous person.

The injustice of Queen Hu back then was known to the whole world, and the world sighed and sympathized.

However, the civil and military officials turned a blind eye; Among the Manchu courts, there was no one who was a loyal minister.

At that time, your father was still there, and he despised this Manchu civil and military force. I don't want my son to be the kind of person his father despised.

Go ahead, let me do what I have set my sights on. You are a promising young man who is not afraid of death, and I am an old woman who has half of her body in the ground, so why is she afraid of death. ”

When Yue Rui heard this, he sighed heavily, and stood aside to stop persuading. And Yue Zheng knocked his head three times, and then went back to the room to write a recital in tears.
