Empress Dowager Sun bluntly said that she wanted Chen Yichen to hand over the military power?

Hearing this imperial edict, the ministers inside and outside Fengtian Hall were already standing there blankly, not knowing what to say.

Maybe it was because the continuous impact was too great, completely beyond my cognitive acceptance, and now the harem's interference in politics is nothing.

The only thing that is certain is that there is no groundlessness in the Forbidden City, that is, the matter of the Supreme Emperor that is unclear is likely to be true?

Not to mention the shock of the court officials, even Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu, who was sitting on the dragon throne, subconsciously turned his head and looked at it. You must know that now is not the time when he ascended the throne. As an adult emperor, in theory, no one is allowed to rule the country from behind.

Even though he was as strong as the Empress Dowager Zhang, after the Ming Dynasty Emperor Yingzong Zhu Qizhen was sixteen years old, he took the initiative to "abdicate the throne and give way to the wise", clarifying the emperor's power to personally expedition.

What made Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu feel even more unacceptable was that Empress Dowager Sun intervened in politics, and no one in the civil and military affairs of the court stood up to speak out for justice. In addition to being surprised, he was silent and chose to abide by such behaviors.

Is my emperor really a "transitional product" from an extraordinary period?

In an instant, a humiliation of being contemptuous and filled the chest of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu.

He did not follow the words of Queen Mother Sun at the first time, but said calmly: "Mother, the words are heavy, Minister Chen is still loyal to the emperor and patriotic."

Hearing Zhu Qiyu's response, a sneer came from behind the curtain: "Haha, Mr. Chen seems to be quite loyal to the emperor at present."

There is no doubt that Empress Dowager Sun had something in her words. In an instant, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu's face turned red. She wanted to refute her but was suppressed by the filial piety.

"Shishou Lord Chen will arrange this for the time being when he enters the pavilion. The rest of the matter will be settled when the Supreme Emperor comes back!"

Queen Mother Sun didn't want to give Zhu Qiyu any chance to explain. As early as a month ago, Mongolia sent a delegation and was recommended by Yin Guo Jing, the Imperial Horse Supervisor, showing enough sincerity.

This time, the Grand Tutor Yexian was willing to release the Supreme Emperor back to Beijing unconditionally. Even Cao Jixiang, the chief sealer, sent a few rumors, which was basically a foregone conclusion.

When Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen returns, what Chen Yichen has done will be revealed. How can such traitors cover their faces and stand in the court?

"The Queen Mother's Holy Wisdom!"

Almost at the same time, the Right Censor Yang Shan went out to compliment him. In his designated plan, Chen Yichen and the Duke Cheng Mansion must first cut off the military control of one side.

Otherwise, the influence of the Nine Borders, coupled with the influence of Fujian, Shandong and Jingying, would be as strong as that of Wang Ji, the commander of the Southern Expedition Army.

What's more, Wang Ji, the boss of Jingyuan, is not the kind of person who pursues fame and fortune, and may not be reliable at critical moments in the struggle for power.

"The Queen Mother's Holy Wisdom!"

Immediately afterwards, the assistant general Zhang Fu, the Marquis of Ningyang Chen Mao, the Minister of Revenue Jin Lian, etc., stood up and shouted these compliments, which meant that it was obvious that the court officials were standing in line.

That is, the military power of the capital must not allow the Duke Cheng to dominate the lineage, and no more powerful ministers like Wang Zhen can be cultivated, both public and private, and they must abstain from entering the cabinet!

Faced with the call of these ministers, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu's face became increasingly embarrassed. At this moment, he deeply realized that the pressure and threats that Empress Dowager Sun had put on him were not just as simple as saying.

Relying on the innate advantages of filial piety and the influence of the Supreme Emperor among his ministers, he can really depose and establish the emperor!

The feeling of powerlessness swept across Zhu Qiyu's body. He subconsciously looked at Cheng Jing in front of him, just like Zhu Qizhen, the Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty, who was both a master and a father.

Looking at Zhu Qiyu's eyes asking for help, Cheng Jing also felt a deep helplessness in his heart. A few months were only enough to win over Chen Yichen, and it was not enough to cultivate a group of forces that were completely loyal to the new emperor among the court officials.

As the saying goes, the Taoist has to bow his head under the eaves, and sometimes the emperor is the same.

So, Cheng Jing could only shake his head indescribably and signal Zhu Qiyu to surrender and compromise.

"What my mother said is, let Mr. Chen enter the cabinet as a senior title to participate in the maintenance service."

"My minister, receive the order!"

Chen Yichen saw every move on the imperial platform. He knew that Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu had reached his limit of his ability, and that all civil and military officials in the court could not allow a cabinet unit to appear, and the future super powerful minister who was in charge of the army.

It is difficult to offend public anger, and it is difficult to achieve dedication. Politics is an art of compromise. Chen Yichen has been in the official sea for several years and is no longer the young man he used to be. It is too early to think about being powerful in the court and the country in his early twenties.

Seeing Chen Yichen put down his military power without "resistance", many court officials showed a deep smile on their faces. This was not just a concession of a minister, but to be more important, it was a confrontation between two "kings".

The Supreme Emperor has not returned to the capital yet, and the current emperor has no power to resist. According to this trend, it seems that the Ming Dynasty will soon change.

The matter of rewarding merits and rewards was completed, and the court meeting will still select several memorials to discuss the matter according to the rules of the orthodox dynasty. However, compared with the highlights of the previous struggle between various forces, the content of the memorials after the subsequent memorials is a bit unpainful. Basically, the officials in charge will pass after answering a few sentences.

However, in the final stage, there is still a memorial from Datong Prefecture to be read, which is what this dynasty meeting is looking forward to, that is, how to discuss with the Tartars to welcome the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen back to Beijing!

"Your Majesty, the Wasan envoy has arrived in Datong Prefecture. This time the Tartars stated that they would not charge any ransom and would return it to the Supreme Emperor to the capital unconditionally."

"This is the blessing of the late emperor, and this is the blessing of my Ming Dynasty!"

The Minister of Rites Hu Ying said this with some emotion. As one of the five ministers of the late emperor's entrustment, and was also the chief official in charge of the rituals and laws. Even if we put aside the various power disputes in the court, it is indeed a shame to be able to welcome the defeated emperor back.

After all, the shame of Jingkang, the two emperors Huizong of Song and Qinzong of Song were unable to return to the capital of the Song Dynasty until their death, and the Ming Dynasty did not repeat the same mistake!

There will be no extremely humiliating description in historical books thousands of years later!

"God blesses the Ming Dynasty, please ask Your Majesty to reply to the Wasan envoy as soon as possible and welcome the Supreme Emperor back to the capital."

Chen Xun, the chief minister of the cabinet, also agreed that welcoming the Ming Emperor back to Beijing was absolutely politically correct. The six ministries had already taken the lead, so the cabinet naturally had to express its attitude.

"Your Majesty also welcomes the Supreme Emperor back to the capital!"

In an instant, all the civil and military officials bowed to their orders. More than a month has passed since the last memorial of the ministers of honor and relatives, and the new king has never given a clear answer. Now the Tartars have completely given up the negotiation threat. If they don’t take the Supreme Emperor back to the capital, it will be a shame for the Ming Dynasty!

Faced with this group of indignant scenes, Zhu Qiyu looked at Chen Yichen, and his eyes were filled with despair. He understood that under this situation, Chen Yichen could not do anything, but just holding ridiculous expectations.

"Your Majesty, I have different opinions. The Supreme Emperor should postpone his return to the capital!"

Accompanied by the incredible gaze inside and outside the hall, Chen Yichen finally stood up to object.

History has changed in one's own hands. If Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen returned to Beijing early, then Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu is likely to be unable to defend the throne and the outcome will be extremely tragic.

The reason is nothing else, and the word "orthodox" in feudal society cannot be shaken!

Why was Zhu Qizhen able to easily recover after losing his troops and being imprisoned in Nangong for seven years in history?

Even though the vast majority of ministers who did not participate in the coup, including Yu Qian, who was deeply favored by Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qi Yuhuang, still chose to support Zhu Qizhen to restore the throne. It is because the orthodox heirs in their hearts were always Zhu Qizhen and his son, rather than Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu!

As early as the pre-Qin period, the system of inheritance of the eldest son was confirmed. After thousands of years of evolution, it has become a golden rule and even surpassed the laws of ancestors.

Zhu Qiyu was a concubine's son and did not inherit the legal system of Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty. Theoretically, the one who was most qualified to ascend the throne in the Ming Dynasty after the Tumubao Incident was Zhu Zhanji, the king of Xiangxian. He was the legitimate son of Emperor Renzong of Ming Dynasty Zhu Gaochi.

However, King Xiangxian Zhu Zhanji did not like power, and had been in the vassal state for many years, rejected the court's request to ascend the throne, giving way to Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu.

This is why Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu wanted to be so awe of Empress Dowager Sun because his legal system originated from his legitimate mother, Empress Dowager Sun. In order to increase his orthodox nature, he also asked Datong General Guo Deng to obtain the imperial edict of Emperor Yingzong Zhu Qizhen as an endorsement.

But even so, Zhu Qiyu is not the innate disadvantage of the crown prince, and the throne does not come from the legal system of his father, Emperor Xuanzong of Ming.

This led to Zhu Qiyu being the minister of the Supreme Holy Empress Dowager Sun, the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen, in terms of the title of monarch and minister, and the superiors and subordinates must not be confused!

No matter when and where, Empress Dowager Sun wanted to abolish the throne of Zhu Qiyu, and Zhu Qizhen and his son wanted to restore the throne, which was in line with the "procedural justice" of etiquette and law.

The whole thing seems a bit ridiculous, but it is the reality. The court submitted a memorial to welcome the Supreme Emperor back to the capital. Among them, there are actually very few who are holding the merits of obtaining the restoration of the Dragon.

The reason why there is such a large-scale momentum is more to maintain the inheritance of etiquette and law in your heart.

After all, whether it is a civil and military minister or a relative of the honorary family, their family inheritance also relies on the inheritance system of the eldest son. If you want to stabilize the inheritance of titles and family business, you must abide by the etiquette and laws. Otherwise, after the rules are absent, will it be all messed up?

Now Chen Yichen stands up to oppose it. In fact, it is not just the leader of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu, but also challenging the legal tradition of the entire feudal society!

"Nothing nonsense, the Supreme Emperor has suffered a lot in Mobei. As a minister, you are still thinking about humiliating the king?"

Wang Yining, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, jumped out immediately, pointed at Chen Yichen's nose and cursed.

Being able to tolerate other things, and welcoming the Supreme Emperor back to Beijing is related to the inheritance of etiquette and law, and this is still a matter of etiquette. How can we tolerate Chen Yichen stopping here?

"It seems that the rumors that the Supreme Emperor ignored the enemy camp are not groundless. Does Mr. Chen really want to be a traitor?"

The Zuodu Censor Wang Wen also asked coldly.

He was reliant on the eunuch party Wang Zhen back then, which was now notorious in the court. If he wanted to turn around, he could only return from the north with the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen.

Now the opportunity is right in front of you, Chen Yichen has to come forward to stop him, which is no different from cutting off his wealth and killing his parents.

"I remember that the Supreme Emperor appointed you as the Three Yuanshu, but now he is so arrogant that he is so proud of his master. I am ashamed to be an official in the same court with this son!"

Not only were the high-ranking officials in Fengtian Hall opposed it, but even Hanlin Qinggui, who was standing in the corridor outside the hall, shouted loudly.

Chen Yichen also knew this person. It was Tao Hongzheng, who was the Hanlin Academy who was appointed as the Hanlin Prosecutor who established his authority.

Of course, he has now become a Hanlin editor.

With the addition of Hanlin Qinggui, it was equivalent to igniting the powder kegs of the trolls, such as the group of trolls. In an instant, all kinds of rebukes and insults were endless. The entire court hall was no different from the vegetable market. The censor who maintained etiquette and order did not dare to offend the public at this time.

"quiet!"

Jin Ying, the eunuch in charge of the Sili Supervisor standing on the imperial platform, finally couldn't stand this scene and stopped him loudly.

Jin Ying was also a veteran of the Five Dynasties. When Wang Zhenquan was in power, he had to give him some shame. Now he has the blessing of the eunuch in charge of the Sili Supervisor, and ordinary censors can't afford to offend him, so he had to calm down for the time being.

"Chen Qing, tell me your reasons."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu gave Chen Yichen a chance to speak. Although he no longer had any expectations in his heart, at least one person stood up to oppose it was also a gratifying thing.

"A defeat of Tumu is a hundred years of shame for my Ming Dynasty. Although I am a civil servant, I also know that failure on the battlefield requires the use of the blood of the enemy to cleanse the shame."

"The Supreme Emperor was captured and released by the Tartars. What will future generations comment on it, and how will history books describe it?"

"Only by leading troops to defeat the Tartars, taking back the Supreme Emperor from them, and letting the head of the Mongolian Grand Tutor Yesian hang on the walls of the capital to warn all nations, we can truly promote the prestige of our Ming Dynasty!"

Sending back and robbing back are two different concepts. The former is a gift to the weak, while the latter is a revenge of the strong.

Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen, wanted to cleanse the shame in history books. Only by destroying Mongolia, a century-old enemy of the Ming Dynasty, could he win back his reputation.

After all, history has always been written by the winner.

However, Chen Yichen's words did not receive the expected effect. Even Hu Yi, the Minister of Rites, stood up and scolded: "It is unreasonable to make revenge in the Ming Dynasty, why should I put the Supreme Emperor in a dangerous situation?"

"If there is no eyebrow in the sword and gun, if an accident occurs during the conquest, what will Mr. Chen take responsibility?"

In a sense, Chen Yichen is indeed suspected of changing his concepts, and he also knows that the success rate of such words is close to None.

But there is only one way to fight for many things, and there is no other way.

At this time, Chen Yichen took out a memorial from his arms and said loudly: "I dare not guarantee that I will not dare to do anything bad to the Supreme Emperor. I can even get his head without bloodshed!"

"What capital guarantee do you have?"
