353 Forced Zen Position (2 in 1)(1/2)
"What? Since King Hui dares to seize the throne!"
Zhu Qizhen was furious when he heard this. You must know that he thought he was good at treating Zhu Qiyu. If it were other vassal kings, they would have already got out of the capital and went to the local area to become vassals. King Hui still stayed in the capital when he was in his prime.
Who can compare with this friendship alone in the late emperor?
As a result, it took only how long he had been deeply trapped in the hands of the Tartars that King Zhu Qiyu usurped the throne of the emperor, which was simply a wolf-hearted person!
And when Zhu Qizhen was excited, his tone suddenly increased a lot, which scared Yuan Bin, Yang Shan and others in the tent into a cold sweat. If the Mongols found someone lurking in and trying to take the emperor away, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Not only were he and others burying here, but hundreds of civilians who transported money, wine and meat, and even tens of thousands of soldiers in Datong City had to bear the burden and be buried in anger!
"Your Majesty, please calm down and do not arouse suspicion of the Tartars!"
Yuan Bin knew the anger and resentment in Zhu Qizhen's heart at this moment, but he could only grit his teeth to comfort him. After all, no one except himself could do this.
"Stop the anger? My throne is about to be gone, how can I calm down my anger!"
Zhu Qizhen was still in a state of furiousness, then turned his eyes to Yang Shan and yelled: "Tell Guo Deng!"
"No, tell King Hui that it is impossible for me to write abdication edict. He will always be a traitor who has obtained the wrong position!"
In all dynasties in China, whether it is actively abdicating or passively seizing the throne, there are nominal abdication edicts, which are very important and representative imperial edicts, which indicate that they recognize the legitimacy of the successor on the surface.
If Zhu Qizhen doesn't write about it, it will have endless troubles for Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu.
Thinking about the success of Emperor Yongle Zhu Di, why did Emperor Jianwen still find the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen for so many years after he was firmly in his arms?
It is because as long as Emperor Jianwen is not sure of his death and has not issued an abdication edict, Zhu Di's legal process will always have flaws, and it is very likely that the other party will raise another army again on this grounds.
Now that Zhu Qizhen is in the hands of the Mongolians, who knows whether the Taishi Yexian will "try against rebellion" in his name in the future?
When the Dharma is useless, it is worthless, but when it is useful, it is worth a thousand gold. For the Chinese dynasty, it is an eternal time bomb.
"Your Majesty, it was the Queen Mother who issued an order to make King Huang the new king!"
Yang Shan gritted his teeth and told the truth. King Hui did not plan to usurp the throne, but passed the imperial edict issued by the empress dowager to inherit the throne.
Although there are still hidden dangers of the legal system without abdication edict, the officials of the court and civil and military officials will hardly have too much objection.
To put it more cruelly, Zhu Qizhen was deposed!
Mother's queen has created a new king?
When Yang Shan heard that it was Empress Dowager Sun who made King Hui the new king, the Ming Emperor Yingzong Zhu Qizhen felt as if the sky had collapsed.
It would be fine if my brother usurped the throne, but even my biological mother gave up on him.
Is there really no family affection in the royal family?
"Why did she do this?"
Zhu Qizhen murmured and wanted to know the answer.
"I don't know the humble position."
Yangshan is just a small "no collection of night" general flag. Even asking Zhu Qizhen to write abdication edict was to execute Guo Deng's order. How could he know what Empress Dowager Sun thinks?
Just in a daze, Ye Bushang, who was staring at the outside of the camp, reminded Yang Shan through the curtain: "General Yang Qi, the Tartars have finished eating and drinking, and if they don't leave, they will not be able to leave!"
"Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a king for a day. Please put the foundation of our ancestors first!"
Yang Shan mustered up his lifelong courage and urged Zhu Qizhen again, saying that he had no time to wait.
Realizing that he was abandoned, the political situation in the court had changed drastically, Zhu Qizhen felt as if his heart was dead at this moment.
What is hard work to govern and what is expanding territory, it seems like a dream now!
"Okay, since my good brother needs this edict of abdication, then write one for him!"
After saying that, Zhu Qizhen took the ink pen on the table and wrote the big characters in the eight characters on the bright yellow brocade.
"The destiny has returned, and there is no more to say!"
The first four words represent that Zhu Qizhen has accepted his fate, and the last four words represent that he is unwilling to accept his heart.
As an emperor who received complete imperial education since childhood, Zhu Qizhen was definitely the best among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty. He knew very well what the consequences would be if he did not write this edict of abdication.
No matter how resentful the King of Songs is, he can no longer take the initiative to die in danger.
Only by sleeping on firewood and tasting gall, enduring the humiliation of King Goujian of Yue, can you have the opportunity to turn yourself back in the future!
At the same time, Zhu Qizhen quickly pulled out a piece of white paper and wrote quickly to Queen Mother Sun to describe her suffering situation, and emphasized the warmth between mother and son.
In any case, the blood between the biological mother and the son is endless. Zhu Qizhen believes that anyone in the world can give up on himself, and his mother will definitely find a way to save him and return to Beijing.
As long as the mother always stands on her side, there will be hope for everything.
It has to be said that Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen had extremely high talent in understanding the struggle for power struggle.
It’s a pity that as an emperor, his talent should be more focused on civil and military skills.
With the Mongolian army full of wine and food, Yang Shan returned to Datong City with these two letters.
When Guo Deng learned that Zhu Qizhen was afraid of accidents and refused to come back together in the civilian team, the expression on his face was extremely complicated.
Defeat is one thing, and cowardice is another.
Once upon a time, Taizu, Taizong, and the Iron Cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, were traversing thousands of miles from the north of the desert. Now Zhu Qizhen has lived a life of silence and has put down the supreme majesty of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, which has really brought shame to the late emperors of all dynasties!
Of course, Guo Deng could only be indignant in his heart. After confirming that Zhu Qizhen was unwilling to break out and received the abdication edict that the new king wanted. He immediately ordered the city gate to close, refused all dialogue with the Mongolian Tartars, and was ready to live and die with Datong City.
Faced with the sudden "turning back" of the Datong Guardian, Yesen was also furious. He thought that Zhu Qizhen was the trump card outside, and Guangning Bo Liu An and the eunuch Guo Jing inside, and the other party would soon give up resistance.
Especially Datong City gave money, wine and meat to admit defeat, which made the idea of Taishi Yexian.
As a result, he went in another direction. Wouldn't he slapped Yesen in the face?
Now the Taishi Yexian is at the peak of his prestige in Mongolia. He ordered all the tribes to dare not to obey, and immediately ordered the general Boluo Maulohai to lead a large army to attack the city.
At the same time, he secretly contacted Liu An, the No. 1 of Guangning, and tempted him to go to the capital to report the news with the promise of Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty.
Just say that the Mongolian army still wanted to live in peace with the Ming Dynasty, and even was willing to marry his sister to Zhu Qizhen, and remained in power after returning to Beijing!
As long as more envoys are sent to send money, everything can be discussed and easy to say.
With the promise of becoming a marquis, Liu An, the No. Guangning, stopped defending the city and immediately returned to the capital with a mercy, leaving Guo Deng alone to face the 200,000 Mongolian army.
It was magical enough to reward the enemy before the war, but there was also a scene where the nominal coach left the battle, which was simply ridiculous!
If the generals of Datong Prefecture were not Guo Deng, who had experienced many battles, the historical direction of the Ming Dynasty might have another ending.
On August 29, 13th year of Zhengtong, after a whole day of fighting, the city of Datong was covered with Mongolian corpses.
As the number one important city on the Nine Borders of the Ming Dynasty, Datong's city was doubted by Mu Yong. The Mongolian army marched from Xuanfu to Datong for several days. The grassland people who were not good at siege were not even prepared for siege equipment, so they just leaned on a few ladders to get on. The result was conceivable.
In addition, during the process of defending the city, Guo Deng personally came to the front line to fight bravely to kill the enemy, shouting the slogan "I won't let you die alone" to the soldiers.
The chief general of the hall is willing to live and die together with ordinary soldiers and to give them a favor to them. How can the Datong defenders not be motivated?
"Taishi, the men and women were killed and injured so much!"
Looking at the corpses everywhere under the Datong city wall, Ala Zhiyuan finally couldn't help but persuade him.
With this day's attack, the Mongolian army had suffered thousands of casualties. Even if the Tumu Fort's strength increased greatly, it would not withstand such consumption.
The Grand Master's eyes were covered with bloodshot at this moment. Even if Ala Zhiyuan didn't say it, he actually knew in his heart that he had relied on the Mongolian warriors to attack Datong City. Even if he was finally captured, the heavy casualties would be unacceptable to Mongolia.
After all, cities like Datong are everywhere in the Central Plains, how many Mongolian children need to fill them?
More importantly, your strategic goal is to conquer the capital!
"Ala Zhiyuan, aren't the men who retreat there now die in vain?"
The King of the Sci-Magazine looked dissatisfied. Now the Mongolian warriors are unstoppable. How could a group of cowards and barbarians be opponents?
As long as you persist in attacking, the first thing that collapses will be the Datong defenders!
"Ala Zhiyuan is right, the Mongolian children cannot fall under the city of Datong."
The Grand Master also suppressed his inner anger and arrogance first, and made the most rational judgment calmly. It would be no more than the loss to attack Datong City.
"Brother, you can take over Datong City as long as you attack for a few more days. Retreat at this time is equivalent to wasting all previous efforts!"
The King of Saiqian was still unwilling to accept it. A group of defeated soldiers of the Datong defenders were defeated. Killing them in the battle of Yanghe was as simple as slaughtering a lamb. He didn't believe that he couldn't take it down!
"The King of the Sci-Magazine, our goal is the capital, the Central Plains!"
"Datong is just a gateway to the capital of the Ming Dynasty. There are still many ways to bypass it."
He didn't want to spend time in Datong City at first. He had a vague premonition in his heart that he pulled the Emperor Ming to knock on the door, wasting too much strategic time, and instead gave Ming Guo a chance to breathe.
Now we must seize the time to arrive at the capital, otherwise we will wait for the arrival of the royal army in various parts of the Ming Empire, and the difficulty of capturing the capital will be far greater than that of Datong City today.
"Brother, then which road will we take?"
"Bauhinia Pass!"
This route is actually the route back to Beijing by Weizhou-Zijing Pass, which was denied by Zhu Qizhen.
Since the Emperor of Ming Dynasty did not leave, let the Mongolian army come and leave!
On the last day of August of the 13th year of Zhengtong, when Yang Shan arrived at the capital with the abdication edict, the officials of the court breathed a sigh of relief. This means that there would be no extreme situation of one country and two kings. From then on, the generals of the border of the Ming Dynasty could justly refuse Zhu Qizhen's request to open the city.
In addition to the abdication edict brought by Yang Shan, Guangning Bo Liu An and the second military messenger sent by Datong arrived at the capital almost at the same time.
