The Empress Dowager lived a long life and saw a lot, and her heart was extremely clear. She watched five emperors ascend the throne in her life: Huizong Zhu Yunwen, Chengzu Emperor Zhu Di, Renzong Zhu Gaochi, Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji, Baozongzhen and Ming Dynasty God of War Zhu Qizhen

, she gradually transformed from the Crown Princess to the current Empress Dowager, and she can be regarded as a great Mingqi woman.

Although he had stopped taking care of things a long time ago, this sudden statement made the voices in the imperial study disappear again, and the atmosphere became tense. No one dared to speak again.

"Thank you, the Empress Dowager, and follow the instructions of the Empress Dowager."

Zhou Yu saluted respectfully to the Empress Dowager, stood up, spotted the guard who was just now, pulled out the knife from his body, and strode towards the senior ministers who were kneeling on the ground.

"Ministers, I just want to ask who is supervising the country now. Why is this king completely unaware of such important events? I just want to ask why I lied about the military situation and failed to win, which led to the final catastrophe. I just want to ask who owns the world in this world.

, Whose family is this Ming Dynasty? Whose orders are you listening to? You dare to ignore countless royal relatives of my Zhu family, and ignore me as a supervising country. If you can give me an answer to these three questions, I want to warn you,

If this is really pursued, it will be a serious crime to punish the nine tribes. I will give you time to think carefully about what to say."

As Zhou Yu spoke, he used the knife to make left and right gestures around the necks of these people. Then he turned around and threw the knife to its owner. He walked towards the direction of the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Sun. He knelt down on the ground with a flick of his clothes: "Mr.

Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, now hundreds of thousands of troops have been completely annihilated in Tumubao, and more than 60 civil servants and generals have died in battle. What is even more serious is that Your Majesty has fallen into the hands of Wala, and we are unprepared for this defeat.

What’s even more frightening is that this battle may have damaged Ming’s backbone.”

"Now Wala can advance, attack, retreat or defend. If Wala chooses to attack the capital first and there is no danger to pass through the huge city, it may be difficult to catch up if all the ministries are temporarily mobilized to support. Wala may be able to attack the city at any time. In order to ensure safety

I urge the Empress Dowager to immediately make plans for her nephew to be the crown prince and quickly move south. I will stay and lead the ministers and soldiers to defend the capital and never give in until reinforcements arrive. Emperor Chengzu moved north to achieve the goal of the emperor guarding the country. I am also willing to learn from it.

The ancestors died as kings of the country, and the same applies to ministers who are not kings but can serve as supervisors of the country. Even if they die in battle, they will never let the Oara wild people set foot in the capital. If they are captured, they will not dare to do anything that insults their ancestors and the Ming Dynasty.

Only one death proves that I, the Ming Dynasty, still have the backbone to set an example for the world. I, the son of the Zhu family, can only die standing up and not live on my knees."

The Empress Dowager looked at Zhou Yu who was kneeling on the ground with his head lowered without much expression, and her eyes were also so hard that it was difficult to see what she was really thinking.

But Empress Dowager Sun's face was turning green and white at this time, and her eyes when looking at Zhou Yu were about to burst into flames. The sarcasm in Zhou Yu's words was not concealed at all, as if she was saying that since her son was captured, what would happen?

In order to save the face of the royal family and the Ming Dynasty, she should die decisively, but after all, she has been the Queen Mother for so many years. From the perspective of reason and current status, Queen Mother Sun has to sadly admit that Zhou Yu's words are indeed correct.

.

Nowadays, there are not many soldiers available in the surrounding areas, including the capital. It is indeed the safest way to establish a prince and move south quickly, especially if there are people who are willing to stay here to fight for time, which can maintain the emperor's position in Zhu Qi Town.

.

"The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country. That's right." The Empress Dowager gave Zhou Yu a deep look, then turned to the Empress Dowager Sun: "Daughter-in-law, what do you think?"

Empress Dowager Sun bent down slightly: "Empress Dowager, this matter is very important and needs to be discussed in the long term. It is better to summon the ministers to the Wenhua Palace to discuss the matter and see if we can come up with a better solution."

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's first listen to what the ministers think."

Zhou Yu didn't say anything at this time and just waited for these two women with the same ancestors to talk softly. It was natural for him to establish a prince, but that little brat is less than two years old, becoming the emperor? Haha, just kidding.

Now there are only two sons in Xuanzong's lineage, one is Zhu Qiyu, also known as Zhou Yu, and the other is Emperor Baozong Zhu Qizhen. The others have no idea about the throne.

The Empress Dowager spoke to him before, which reminded Zhou Yu of something. At that time, he was the eldest son and the crown prince. But for some unknown reason, Empress Hu was deposed and his position as crown prince was gone. Empress Hu was the crown prince.

The empress dowager personally helped the late emperor select the princess, but it is not clear what happened in the process.

All Zhou Yu is doing now is actually a test to test the Empress Dowager's attitude towards the Empress Dowager Sun and her attitude towards herself.

Judging from the current situation, the temptations he is making now are all within a safe range, at least in a short period of time. No matter how dissatisfied Empress Dowager Sun is, she will not dare to do anything at this time. If it is true,

If you want to make a child less than two years old the emperor and she continues to listen to politics from behind the curtain, let alone whether the court agrees or not, the clans in the world will definitely not agree. Why? Aren't you afraid of having another female emperor?

Master Shao Guoyu, if he really wants to push a child less than two years old to become the emperor, then the Ming Dynasty will be exhausted. In order to stabilize the world, it cannot do things like this. Zhou Yu can see clearly that as long as he does not die, he will be in this position.

It will definitely be his, and as long as he dies, the Queen Mother Sun will never be able to take over the power. But in fact, Zhou Yu really doesn't care about this position that much now.

"The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager." Zhou Yu waited until the two of them finished speaking and spoke again: "It takes time for all the ministers to get together due to the complex affairs, and it also takes time for discussions. Why don't the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager take a break for the time being."

"No need." Empress Dowager Sun glanced at Zhou Yu indifferently, and bowed slightly toward the Empress Dowager again: "Then my wife will go to Wenhua Hall first."

"Well, you go ahead." The Empress Dowager also nodded slightly sadly, and said slowly: "I will rest here for a while before going over."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Empress Dowager Sun straightened her sleeves and glanced at the ministers kneeling on the ground: "What are you still kneeling here for? Go to the Wenhua Hall to discuss matters."

The expression on the kneeling person's face relaxed: "Yes, Queen Mother, we are going now."

"Who asked you to get up?"

Zhou Yu's cold voice suddenly sounded, so cold that it contained no emotion. It seemed to be warning and explaining: "You have all forgotten the ancestral system established by Emperor Taizu. Who is the supervisor? Who is it?

Tell me whether this country, this country, this court, this palace is named Zhu or something else. Even if the Queen Mother speaks, don’t forget that the Queen Mother is still here. Do you take the Queen Mother seriously?"

With a pop, the person who had just stood up quickly knelt down again: "Please forgive me, the Queen Mother."

The Empress Dowager looked at Zhou Yu and then at the kneeling minister, closed her eyes for a while and then said slowly: "Go."

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

Zhou Yu watched several ministers leave with the Empress Dowager, but he stayed in the imperial study without following them. When they left, Zhou Yu turned around and saluted the Empress Dowager: "Grandma, are you going to let them go like this?"

"Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking." The Queen Mother opened her eyes and took a deep look at Zhou Yu, and said, "You have gone too far."

Zhou Yu lowered his head: "Yes, grandma."

The Empress Dowager suddenly said: "You just said that the emperor defends the country and the king dies for the country. Do you think your royal brother deserves to die?"

"You shouldn't die." Zhou Yu shook his head gently and said, "But we shouldn't linger on. Now that the emperor has fallen into the enemy's hands, if the Ora Blade forces the emperor to call for help, will the soldiers fight or surrender?"

The Queen Mother laughed inexplicably: "The Zhu family... Haha, you really deserve to be a member of the Zhu family. Everyone underestimated you before."

Zhou Yu said nothing.

"Let's take a look, and then look..." The Queen Mother sighed and said, "A country cannot live without a king for a day, let's look... and then look."

Zhou Yu bowed and said, "Grandson, please retire."

Turning around and leaving the imperial study, he stood at the door and saw two small yellow men standing aside with fear. Zhou Yu walked towards the two of them thoughtfully: "Who is in charge of the palace affairs now after Wang Zhen went out with the army."

Xiao Huangmen said tremblingly: "Going back to the prince, it's Wang Shan, the nephew of General Manager Wang Zhen."

"Nephew." Zhou Yu nodded lightly, which was no different from the history in his memory: "Go, call Wang Shan over to me, and tell him to come and see me if he doesn't want to die."

"Yes, yes, let's go now."

Wang Shan hadn't come yet, but the two little Huangmen ran away with embarrassed smiles on their faces.

Zhou Yu turned around and looked at the imperial study room again, then slowly walked to the side.

The Empress Dowager is also very aware of the current situation. If the emperor does not come back, and if the war cannot be stopped, it is inevitable that a new emperor will take the throne. Otherwise, it would be impossible to say that a country cannot be without a king for a day.

Her looking and looking was actually a subtle reminder to Zhou Yu not to be anxious, and just watching with peace of mind was better than anything else.

But is Zhou Yu that kind of person? Yes, of course he is. If he can get the benefits he sees, he can wait as long as he wants. But what is the benefit of that position? It is a hot potato. It is not his fault that he has done well.

And for him, if he doesn't do something at critical times, he may not be able to sit safely in this position. With the Empress Dowager looking at him eagerly and the Supreme Emperor who will come back at any time, his buttocks are full of thorns and he won't be able to sit safely.

The best emperor is the emperor who is dead. My heart will not be at ease until my brother dies, and my heart will be even more at ease until the queen mother dies.

Zhou Yu walked slowly in front of the palace. After waiting for a short time, he saw the two Xiaohuangmen who had just gone there had left and returned, but there was also another person dressed as a Xiaohuangmen beside him.

Although they were not familiar with each other, there was someone with a familiar face who naturally knew who the extra person was. Zhou Yu walked in front without leaving a trace, and the three young eunuchs followed from a distance until they reached a secluded and uninhabited place.

The little eunuch stopped and went outside to watch.

Wang Shan, Wang Zhen's nephew, is also an arrogant and domineering person. Because Wang Zhen's caregiver is a eunuch and holds important positions in the palace, it can be said that most of the eunuchs in the entire palace are Wang Zhen's people, and Wang Zhen

After Zhen's accident, Wang Shan is now the successor. It is natural that the tree will fall and the hozens will scatter. However, some people really want to leave this fallen tree but there is no way, and the news has not yet spread completely.

Wang Shan was naturally a smart person to be Wang Zhen's right-hand man. He knelt down a few steps away from Zhou Yu, lowered his voice and cried, lying on the ground. He knelt on his knees and moved forward step by step: "Your Majesty.

Save me, and from now on, Wangshan will look up to you as the prince."

"What do you think?" Zhou Yu looked at Wang Shan who was kneeling in front of him and crying softly, and said calmly: "Who do you think you are?"

Wang Shan said quickly: "I am the prince's slave, and I am the prince's dog. Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof, woof. If the prince bites the little one, he will bite him to death."

"It's best this way." Zhou Yu snorted coldly and said, "It seems that you already know what happened. Wang Zhen changed the marching route without permission and caused the total destruction of 200,000 troops. He deserved death but it was a major crime against the nine tribes. You

Do you think you will die?"

Wang Shan shuddered and stammered: "Your Majesty, I'm a kid... I'm a kid..."

Zhou Yu said calmly: "From today on, you are my dog. You'd better remember that everyone except me will want you to die, and no one can save you except me."

Wang Shan hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. The younger one is His Majesty's dog."

Zhou Yu said: "How many people in the palace listen to you?"

Wang Shan hurriedly said: "Many of the Forbidden Army and Jinyiwei are on good terms with my uncle... no, they are on good terms with Wang Zhen. Many people have taken refuge in Wang Zhen. Ma Shun, the commander of Jinyiwei, is also Wang Zhen's man. The younger one can make Ma Shun

He also took refuge in the prince and became his dog."

"It's still of some value." Zhou Yu glanced at Wang Shan lightly, causing the guy who raised his head to immediately lower his head again: "Your Majesty has become a prisoner, and Wala will attack at any time. A country cannot live without a king for a day, you understand.

What do you mean?"

Wang Shan said quickly: "Congratulations to the prince, congratulations to the prince, long live your majesty."

"You are smart." Zhou Yu smiled and said, "Don't appear in front of the ministers during this period. Keep a low profile and maintain the relationships you have. Be optimistic about your people. In addition to Ma Shun, you must also do your best.

Do you understand that I am wooing the Imperial Army?"

"Your Majesty, I know how to do it."

Zhou Yu patted Wang Shan's shoulder and helped him up, squinting his eyes and smiling: "Very good, you have to do things well. This king will not only prevent you from dying, but also prevent your family from being attacked by Wang Shan."

He was implicated and was executed by the Nine Tribes. In the same words, help me tell Ma Shun that you are very smart. If you were not smart, you would not be able to become Wang Zhen's right-hand man. I believe you know what to do."

Wang Zhen nodded quickly.

"Go ahead and ask a stranger to come to me if you need anything."

Zhou Yu waved his hand and left lightly, without wandering around anymore, he headed to the Wenhua Hall.

In the Wenhua Palace, Zhou Yu did not continue to act like he was supervising the country. He sat quietly in his chair and listened to the discussions of the ministers.
