460 Early hands-on (2 in 1)
Looking at Zhu Qiyu's eyes, feeling the loneliness and confusion in the other party's heart, Cheng Jing let go of his hesitation and sighed secretly: "The Supreme Emperor intends to rebel, and Your Majesty should inform the world to deal with it according to the law."
Since ancient times, the royal family has no affection. Cheng Jing knew that Zhu Qiyu just wanted to find some reasons for her to relieve her guilt about her brotherhood.
Conspiracy is a serious crime that is unforgivable. Even if the other party is the emperor, as long as the inheritance of the legal system is completed, the emperor, as the emperor, as the emperor, will be the supreme existence.
Of course, it is still impossible to directly kill the Supreme Emperor according to the law. Cheng Jing added that the world was to help Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu find a moral commanding heights and let the ministers understand that it was the emperor's brother Zhu Qizhen's first move.
In this way, Zhu Qizhen can be imprisoned with justification, and there will be no criticism in the court. Until one day, news of sudden death in the Nangong suddenly came out, giving the era of the orthodox dynasty a complete end.
"Can the Empress Dowager and An Yuanhou really accept the emperor's handling according to the law?"
Zhu Qiyu always had this concern. The Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen had been in power for too long and had a far-reaching influence in the court. He was not sure how many court officials would stand on his side after he broke up.
"Your Majesty, sooner or later, will come to this point. As long as the Minister of War Yu Qian and Changping Marquis Yang Hong are ready, the situation will be under control."
Minister of War Yu Qian, governor of the world's troops, and Huichang Bo Yang Hong was the commander of the three thousand battalions in the Jingzhan camp. Now the Wuqing Hou Shi Heng made a choice and stood on the side of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu. Even if he led the five barracks to remain neutral during the palace change, he could no longer occupy any advantage in military strength based on the Shenji Camp of Liupu, the Marquis of Anyuan Hou, could not occupy any advantage in military strength.
"There is the Marquis of Changping in the Beijing Camp, and I am not worried. The real hidden danger is in the palace."
Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu replied with a serious expression, and only mentioned Changping Marquis Yang Hong in his words, and did not name the Minister of War Yu Qian.
The reason is that his feelings for Yu Qian, the Minister of War, in a sense, were very similar to Chen Yichen, and he was in a range of trust and fear.
However, Zhu Qiyu was not worried that Yu Qian would betray him. After all, the grudge between him and Chen Yichen and his elder brother Zhu Qizhen was almost impossible to resolve. At most, he would remain silent and watch during the palace change.
After the situation outside the palace was negotiated, Wang Ji, the scale of victory tilted towards Zhu Qiyu, but the palace misreaded the eunuch Guo Jing, who summoned him back to the palace and placed the seal of the imperial horse supervisor, which led to the explosion of this thunder.
You should know that last year, Zhu Qiyu rewarded all the ministers in a large number of ways, hoping to win people's hearts and stabilize his throne. Guo Jing, the eunuch in Datong, was suspected of smuggling and colluding with the enemy, which made him very famous in the court. More importantly, Tumubao killed Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty. In theory, the two sides had grudges and celebrating the festival.
Zhu Qiyu was attracted by the festival between the two sides and believed that Guo Jing was afraid of being questioned by the emperor's brother and would definitely not be able to support the Supreme Emperor. So he was promoted to the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor. The most important armed force in the palace, Tengxiang Guards, fell under his control.
Unexpectedly, Guo Jing turned around and surrendered to the Queen Mother and became the main force to welcome the Supreme Emperor back to Beijing.
It can only be said that human calculations are not as good as God's calculations. With the protection of the empress dowager and military power, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu could not do it for a while. He was afraid that he would force the other party to jump over the wall, and he would coup before he was fully prepared, so he endured it until today.
"In the palace, in addition to the four Tengxiang guards controlled by the Imperial Horse Supervisor, there are also more than ten thousand guards controlled by the commander of the Beijing guards, Han Liang'an. The factory guards have investigated that he had contact with Zhu Yi, the eldest son of Duke Cheng's mansion, and there is also the shadow of Master Chen behind him."
"You mean Chen Yichen used Zhu Yi's relationship to win over the commander of the Beijing Guard Han Liang'an?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Master Chen seemed to have expected the Emperor to have abnormal movements. From the beginning of persuading Jingyuan Bo to lead the southern expedition army to leave the capital, he was planning the possible palace transformation."
Hearing Cheng Jing's narration, Zhu Qiyu subconsciously took a breath. He knew that Chen Yichen gave Jingyuan Wang Ji the conditions to Yongzhen. In addition to stabilizing the southern border to quell the rebellion of Luchuan, he also helped him to relieve the disadvantage of the Southern Expedition Army's troops stationed in the capital.
However, Zhu Qiyu would never have imagined that Chen Yichen would completely intervene in the battle between the two emperors and complete the layout early. This vision was simply incredible.
Thinking of this, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but see the mind that Chen Yichen faced the saint alone after the examination and shouted loudly: "I am loyal to Your Majesty, the world can be seen, and the sun and the moon can be seen. Even if I die, I will never regret it!"
Is this boy really loyal?
Zhu Qiyu couldn't see through Chen Yichen, and could not know the other party's inner loyalty. However, one thing is certain, at least in the palace transformation where the two emperors competed, he stood on his side without reservation.
"With the personal guards of the commander of the Beijing Guard, Han Liang'an, then Guo Jing cannot control the entire Forbidden City for a short time, so it is not to be afraid."
After all, the four guards of Tengxiang were the personal army of the emperor. The imperial horse supervisor, Guo Jing, relying on his superiors and even the imperial edicts of the Empress Dowager Sun, in a short time, Inner Mongolia defrauded the imperial guards of the imperial guards to launch a coup.
But as long as another group of personal guards blocked him and Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu could appear safely, the soldiers of the Tengxiang Four Guards would immediately make things right.
Now that the situation inside and outside the palace is under control, Zhu Qiyu has not hesitated too much, so he said coldly: "Transfer to my imperial order and order Zhao Hongjie, the commander of the Jinyiwei, to immediately arrest the eunuch Ruan Lang in the palace for interrogation, and find out the restoration plot behind the Jindao!"

Zhao Hongjie's first entry into the palace showed rewards at this moment. The arrest order should have been issued to Lu Zhong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, but now it has been conveyed to the commander Zhao Hongjie to execute it.
This means that in the emperor's heart, his trust in Zhao Hongjie has surpassed Lu Zhong. The position of leader of the spy agency is second, and loyalty is the most important feature. If nothing unexpected happens, the Jinyiwei will usher in a change of coach again.
The arrest of the old eunuch Ruan Lang of Nangong spread throughout the capital overnight. The two emperors' battles were already well aware of the fact that the ministers of honor and Qi were waiting for the fuse to be ignited and eventually detonated.
Now it’s finally time to see the picture!
In the mansion of Duke Cheng Guo, Chen Yichen was already sitting in the study in the morning. There was a special message from Zhao Hongjie that he knew the news of the arrest of Ruan Lang earlier than others.
Once a move is taken, it means that all parties will be mobilized, and countless possibilities will arise. Chen Yichen must be prepared for sufficient precautions and preparations.
"Master, since Your Majesty has started to take action, then when the news of Ruan Lang's intention to restore the dynasty is confirmed, the Supreme Emperor will most likely make a desperate attempt. Now the Southern Expedition Army led by Wang Ji, the Bo Jingyuan, is still in the capital. In order to avoid the long nights and dreams, please submit a memorial to ask Your Majesty to order the Ministry of War to complete the process of going out as soon as possible!"
The biggest hidden danger to the capital was, in addition to the fifth army camps commanded by Shi Heng, the Hou of Wuqing, the Southern Expedition Army led by Wang Ji, the Prince of Jingyuan. No one expected that the palace would take action so suddenly. Ruan Lang was arrested as soon as the Jin Palace was over. Now the Southern Expedition Army is still in the capital. No one dares to guarantee that Wang Ji, the Prince of Jingyuan, will still abide by the previous agreement.
If he regrets helping Zhu Qizhen's coup, the situation will deteriorate quickly!
"I see."
Chen Yichen nodded, took a memorial without any nonsense, and prepared to write it as quickly as possible before submitting it to the emperor.
He didn't know what was going on in the palace, nor did he know that the imperial golden sword that Wu Qing Hou Shiheng gave him to Zhu Qiyu's imperial edict. The sudden arrest of the Jinyiwei completely disrupted the original plan, as if it made everything nervous.
However, before Chen Yichen could write a few words, he came to the yard in a hurry. The eldest son Zhu Yi rarely did not maintain etiquette. He sent someone to communicate and waited outside the yard, but rushed directly into the study.
"To the north, Your Majesty has just issued an imperial edict, ordering Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji to lead the southern expedition army to march south, and to announce that the world will be in the same position. This matter was caused by you. In order to prevent the process from changing, I suggest you go to the Beijing camp immediately to stabilize the situation!"
No wonder Zhu Yi was so nervous. He was very clear about what he said, worried that Wang Ji, the No. 1 Jingyuan, would regret it after learning that the emperor had taken action. Only Chen Yichen was present could the greatest possibility of avoiding this.
"Okay, I'll go now!"
After hearing this, Chen Yichen immediately put down the half-written memorial. While calling Cang Huotou and others to prepare horses, he hurriedly put on his official uniform and prepared to set off.
"To the north, in order to prevent accidents, do I need to order Wu Rui to mobilize troops to prepare for war?"
After all, Zhu Yi didn't know how much mutual trust there was between Chen Yichen and Wang Ji. If the other party regretted and was about to participate in the palace revolution, then this trip would probably be like being sent to the door to detain.
In case, the cavalry troops led by Wu Rui can complete the rescue of the camp as quickly as possible.
Hearing Zhu Yi's cautious words, Chen Yichen, who was already a little panicked, couldn't help laughing at this moment, "Young Master, you are concerned about it and you are in chaos. Jingyuan Bo has been fighting for the country for many years, so how could he be a villain who is obsessed with profit?"
"Don't worry, even if he chooses to be loyal to the Supreme Emperor and participate in the palace transformation, he will definitely defeat me upright on the battlefield and will not be detained as a caution."
Chen Yichen's words made Zhu Yi stunned. Indeed, this behavior was not like what he did in the past calmly. It might be as concerned as the other party said, and the death of his second brother Zhu Ji made him unable to accept any mistakes in his brothers.
You should know that my father had hoped that one family and two princes would be born like Duke Wei!
After dressing, Chen Yichen rode the prepared horse and galloped towards the Nanzheng Army's garrison.
At the same time, in the Forbidden City, Guo Jing, the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse, was running towards the Cining Palace in great fear. Ruan Lang's imprisonment made him feel a sense of crisis of a tragedy of a rabbit and a fox, and he was worried that the next person to be punished by the emperor would be himself!
The only way he could think of now was to hold his thighs tightly and report everything that happened outside the palace to the other party.
If the Supreme Emperor wants to successfully restore the throne, he must rely on the power of the four guards of Tengxiang and to order the imperial guards to participate in the palace transformation. The identity of a horse supervisor alone is not enough, and it is best to have an imperial edict issued by the Empress Dowager to endorse it.
Even though the imperial edict did not have the legal power to mobilize troops, for the soldiers at the bottom, the orders from the Empress Dowager still had unopposed authority. What Guo Jing needed was to pull the banner and be a tiger skin!
In the Cining Palace, Empress Dowager Sun, who had promised Zhu Qiyu to retreat to the harem, was leisurely enjoying morning tea. She had no ambition and ability to interfere in politics in the harem. After giving up the curtain, her son returned safely from Mobei, and had already met his original expectations, so naturally there was no need to care too much about the political affairs of the previous dynasty.
At the same time, this is one of the reasons why the various greetings sent by Zhu Qizhen asked someone to express their indirect thoughts of restoration, but Empress Dowager Sun never clearly responded.
Another important factor is that the throne of heaven has been established and the legal system is no longer in the Ming Dynasty Emperor Yingzong Zhu Qizhen. Even if Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu immediately announced his abdication and surrender to the wise, the first heir was also the current crown prince Zhu Jianshen, which had nothing to do with Zhu Qizhen, who served as the Supreme Emperor.
As long as Zhu Jianshen was not deposed and served as the crown prince for one day, Zhu Qizhen's restoration would be to steal his son's throne, which was incompatible with etiquette and law.
In addition, Empress Dowager Sun knew the bloody and cruelty of the imperial power struggle, and wished that the current emperor Zhu Qiyu could keep his promise. Queen Bin Tian let the crown prince Zhu Jianan succeed the throne safely and pass the destiny back to Zhu Qizhen's lineage.
Why bother and sisters are tragic and blood flows into a river?
However, Empress Dowager Sun forgot one thing, that is, under the temptation of imperial power, even the relationship between father and son is worthless, let alone the more remote friendships of brothers and uncles.
Will Zhu Qiyu really keep his promise after he has firmly held the throne and pass the throne to the crown prince Zhu Jianshen?
The leisurely and comfortable morning tea time was quickly broken. Guo Jing took two steps at once, threw himself in front of the Empress Dowager Sun, and said in a crying voice: "Empress Dowager, something big is wrong, Nangong is about to change!"
Guo Jing's words made Empress Dowager Sun's heart thump. Although she did not support Zhu Qizhen's coup and restored, it did not mean that she did not care about her son's safety at all.
The emperor is afraid of the emperor's brother, and Empress Dowager Sun knows it well, but she is blindly confident that she can abolish the emperor's legal power. In addition, many ministers and relatives in the court are still loyal to the emperor, and are sure that the other party dare not make any moves to break through the bottom line.
Guo Jing's appearance at this time seemed to have pierced the window paper, and the things he didn't want to face eventually happened.
"What happened to Nangong!"
"The old slave Ruan Lang, who was serving the Supreme Emperor, was arrested by the Jinyiwei last night on the charge of intending to rebel and restore the ruling. He is now detained in the imperial prison."
"Once you confess your guilt, the Supreme Emperor will be in danger!"
Hearing Guo Jing's crying, the expression on Queen Mother Sun's face was filled with surprise, and her mind instantly turned blank.
