Chapter 175: Passing the word to Queen Qian
Royal Palace, Nave.
Zhu Qiyu was used to working here when he was in charge of the country, and it is the same today, but unlike in the past, he has been refreshed in the past two days.
The suffering was over, and now it was time for him to enjoy the power of the emperor.
Sitting in this position, looking at the major events in the world, many things are in his thoughts.
This extreme power is enough to fascinate a person who has no quarrel with the world, and cannot extricate himself.
Power, since the day of its birth, has bewitched all careerists.
Even if you don't have ambition, it is difficult for you to keep your heart after you get power.
Zhu Qiyu enjoyed this feeling very much, although it was very painstaking to review the recital, but he was willing to do it.
In fact, it was not only him, but at the beginning of any emperor's reign, he was like him.
The throne of the Ninety-Five Supreme is too tempting.
"Your Majesty, Yu Shangshu, and Li Du asked to see you in the matter." The little yellow door came in to say goodbye, more respectful than ever.
Zhu Qiyu put down the song and said with a smile: "Hurry up." โ
As soon as the picture turned, Li Qing and Yu Qian walked into the main hall.
"Subordinate Yuqian (Li Qing), see My Emperor's ......"
"Hurry up and excuse me." Zhu Qiyu stepped forward to support Yu Qian, and when Li Qing saw this, he gave up.
Zhu Qiyu didn't care about this, he only had Yu Qian in his eyes, "Yu Aiqing came just in time, I was about to look for you." โ
When Yu Qian heard this, he had no choice but to suppress the matter in his heart, and first pressed the emperor: "What does the emperor have to tell the ministers?" โ
"The battle is over, and it's time to fulfill the promise." Zhu Qiyu said, "This time, thanks to the soldiers' lives, as the monarch of the country, how can it chill people's hearts." โ
He smiled and said: "I want to take two million taels as a reward and compensate the soldiers of the Ming army, you are an honest official, and I am ready to hand it over to you." โ
Li Qing and Yu Qian were shocked.
"What," Zhu Qiyu said in surprise, "Is two million taels less?" โ
Not a lot, too much, you are really generous...... Li Qing is speechless, these two brothers are really two extremes.
However, the soldiers of the Ming army defended the city with their lives, and no matter how much rewards and pensions were given, neither of them had any objections.
The two arched their hands and said, "The emperor is sage." โ
"Hehe... Merit is naturally rewarded, and it should be. Zhu Qiyu smiled, and then glanced at Li Qing, "When did Li Qing come back?" โ
"I was at the border before, and I just came back not long ago." Li Qing replied skillfully.
Zhu Qiyu didn't think much about it, nodded and said: "Yu Aiqing's excerpts have been read, this time you captured the Tatar Taishi alive, you have made great contributions, let's say, what kind of official do you want?" โ
โโฆโฆ The food of the king is worried about the king, how dare the minister be greedy. โ
"Oh yes," Zhu Qiyu patted his forehead, realizing that others couldn't ask for it, so he had to give it himself, "In this way, let's be a waiter first." โ
Zhu Qiyu is really generous, and he will give him a waiter when he comes up.
Of course, the main reason is that his foundation is unstable, so he wants to use this method to win over some people to consolidate his position.
Including the investment of 2 million to reward and pension soldiers, it is also based on this psychology.
so that people know that he, the emperor, is a benevolent monarch who cares for his courtiers and soldiers.
In all fairness, Zhu Qiyu has a utilitarian heart, but he also wants to be a good emperor.
Li Qing symbolically excused himself and accepted it readily.
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said a few thoughtful words, then looked at Yu Qian again, "Yu Aiqing entered the palace, what happened?" โ
"Back to the emperor, Wenchen is in charge of the army, and there are endless disasters," Yu Qian said seriously, "Taizu, Taizong, and Renxuan have not set this precedent, and they are in a hurry to follow the power before, but this system needs to be changed back immediately, and an edict should be issued." โ
"This ......" Zhu Qiyu frowned, "This is not in a hurry, I will consider it." โ
He, the emperor, has been in office for too short a time, and he doesn't know a few people at all, so he doesn't dare to arbitrarily release military power.
Yu Qian is trustworthy, and others ...... To be examined.
"Your Majesty ......" Yu Qian wanted to say more, but was stopped by Li Qing.
He could see that Zhu Qiyu was not trying to break the convention, but there was no available candidate, and at this time, Yu Qian insisted on delegating power, which inevitably gave people a feeling of picking on people.
"Your Majesty, the ministers have their own music." Li Qing gave up.
Zhu Qiyu bowed: "Quasi-play." โ
"Before the Emperor Zeng went hunting in the north, he sent a secret edict to the ministers, and asked the ministers to tell the queen's mother."
Zhu Qiyu became nervous for a moment, "The Emperor Taishang passed on the secret edict, what secret edict, what was written?" โ
"It's just a verbal message," Li Qing explained, "some thoughtful words to the queen." โ
"That's right." Zhu Qiyu's face was scornful, and he realized that Fang had just gone a little too far, so he made up for it: "Alas, I don't know how the Emperor Taishang is now, Li Qing, when was the last time you saw the Emperor?" โ
Li Qing thought for a while and said, "When I was ordered by the king to rush to the aid of the emperor." โ
Yu Qian was stunned, and then his eyebrows were slightly twisted.
He knew that Li Qing had lied.
The reason is very simple, Li Qing was ordered by the king to go to the aid, not to find Zhu Qizhen, even if it was to help, it would not be so fast, if it was so fast, Zhu Qizhen would not be lost.
Moreover, Yu Qian had already learned the details from Zhang Fu and Shi Heng, and when Li Qing led the army to rush there, the main force had already been dispersed.
Why did the gentleman lie...... Yu Qian couldn't understand it thoroughly, he glanced at Li Qing, his lips squirmed a few times, and finally remained silent.
"In addition to the queen, what else does the emperor say?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Li Qing shook his head: "That's not true, the Emperor Taishang didn't expect the Tatars to ...... at that time Huh..."
Zhu Qiyu was stunned, muttered for a while, nodded and said: "Since it is the entrustment of the emperor, I can't stop you, come and invite the imperial sister-in-law." โ
The Qian family has little power in the palace, especially after Zhu Qizhen's accident, his status is even inferior to Zhou Guifei.
But Zhu Qiyu is still not at ease, he wants to watch it in person.
Li Qing also expected it, and looked like he was doing business.
Two quarters of an hour later, the Qian family, led by Xiao Huangmen, came to the nave.
Her eyes were red, her expression was haggard, her steps were vain and messy, and she was in a very bad state.
"See the Emperor's ......"
"Imperial sister-in-law, hurry up and be exempt." Zhu Qiyu hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "The imperial sister-in-law is like this, it is really embarrassing, and there is no need to salute when you see me in the future." โ
Li Qing and Yu Qian saluted Queen Qian.
After some etiquette, Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Qing, "Li Qing, if the emperor has any instructions, just listen to the emperor's sister-in-law." โ
"Obey." Li Qing nodded and began to chatter: "Queen Mother, the Emperor Taishang said to let you take good care of your body and take the medicinal soup on time, he said that he misses you very much......"
Balabala......
The more Li Qing said, the more numb he became, and Yu Qian, as a foreign minister, couldn't hear this, so he immediately urinated.
Zhu Qiyu can't bear it somewhat, no matter how he says, Zhu Qizhen is his eldest brother, and Qian is his imperial sister-in-law, listening to his brother-in-law's private words like this, he himself feels that it is not in line with the etiquette.
But Li Qing couldn't finish talking, and he couldn't interrupt, so he had to walk out stupidly.
Qian really thought it was her husband's entrustment, tears flowed down her eyes, listening to these words, she was very happy, but even more sad.
"Don't hurt your body, if the emperor knows that you are like this, he will also be sad." Li Qing comforted, and when she saw Zhu Qiyu leaving, she took two steps forward, "Niangniang, sit down first, the emperor said that after the minister comes back, I have to check your pulse." โรณฮ ั.oั๏ผง
Qian's heart is already dead, but since it is her husband's entrustment, she doesn't want to refuse.
So he walked to the side and sat down, stretching out his wrist.
Li Qing landed next to her, grabbed her wrist, and said in a very low voice: "Niangniang, what I say next, you must not make a noise, and don't show anything unusual." โ
Qian was stunned and just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Li Qing.
"Don't show anything unusual, there is a little eunuch in the distance."
Qian is patient and quiet.
"The Emperor Taishang is fine, and he is not on the grassland, I brought him back, but he is not in the capital division." Li Qing whispered.
Sensing Qian's trembling wrist, Li Qing pressed it, "Don't show a different color." โ
Qian nodded imperceptibly, trying to maintain his attitude.
"Don't tell anyone about this, otherwise the court situation will be in chaos, and even the safety of the emperor will be threatened." Li Qing's voice was extremely low, "You have to take care of your body, the Emperor Taishang is also very concerned about you." โ
Qian's heart was extremely excited, she really wanted to ask for details, but she was afraid that Li Qing's matter would be ruined, which would affect her husband.
"Don't worry." Li Qing knew that she was in a hurry, and continued to maintain a voice that only the Qian family could hear, and the amplitude of the squirming of her lips was very small, "In this way, you can find an opportunity to go back to your mother's house in three or five days, and I will take you to him when the time comes." โ
Qian looked at Li Qing, and the excitement in his eyes was beyond words.
Li Qing talked about the pathology in a matter-of-fact manner, and there were a bunch of balabala, until Qian calmed down, and then he got up and retired.
Alas, I have become the nanny of the old Zhu family...... Li Qing smiled bitterly: It is estimated that Zhu Qizhen is about to arrive in Jinling, but I don't know what kind of scene he and Zhu Yunwen will be when they meet.
