Chapter 634

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty stayed in Qicheng for a day. After handing over everything, he set foot on the journey back to Beijing with his confidants and guards.

Qi city officials sent people out of the city.

Looking at the pedestrian carriage driving away, the magistrate of Qicheng still wondered: "what did the imperial historian do in Linyuan? We didn't talk about it..."

The point is that we haven't reached a deal and we're back safely.

The official on his side said, "it's strange to talk about it."

Qi City magistrate nodded: "this is also true."

Then he said, "so the censor finally gave up his heart and was willing to return to Beijing to reply."

However, as soon as the person who advocated peace left, his Qi city became more swaying

Next, I want to either hit others or be beaten by others.

The latter is obviously more likely

He will be beaten in all directions. If he can choose, he would like to be beaten by the Duke of Zhenguo. At least he doesn't hurt so much.

The officials sighed and dispersed and went away.

……

Under the closed gates of all parts of the capital, every time they are opened, almost new urgent reports are introduced into the palace.

"Urgent report! King Yan's army captured Cangzhou eight days ago!"

"Mingzhou traitor Zhang yunsui suddenly led his army out of Mingzhou. I don't know what his intention is!"

"There is an alien invasion at the Dorgan border. Dorgan Wei commands the emissary to rush into Beijing. Please send troops and horses to reinforce!"

"Jing Wang's old Department was dissatisfied with the new system, clashed with general Feng Yu, and rioted with the camp, killing and wounding more than a thousand -"

“……”

These urgent reports came into the ears of emperor Qingming in the heart nourishing hall.

"King Jing's old Department dared to make a mistake..." the emperor lay on the Dragon couch and was so angry that he said, "these anti thieves don't know how to live or die! Where's King Jing? Haven't they been escorted to Beijing yet!"

Xie Shoufu lowered his eyes and replied, "I'm going to tell your majesty that King Jing has been detained in Beijing this morning and is now detained in the Zongren mansion."

Emperor Qingming clenched his teeth and said, "pass on my will and take him to the entrance of the vegetable market early tomorrow morning and behead him in public!"

"Your majesty!" Xie Shoufu's face changed greatly: "absolutely not!"

Emperor Qingming turned his head and looked at him with his eyes like a knife: "never? Shouldn't rebellious thieves be killed!"

"The so-called King's rebellion is just your Majesty's guess. Until now, no evidence has been found!" Xie Shoufu said solemnly: "if your majesty wants to kill the king without evidence, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, and it will also make people question the majesty of the law. If you can't and don't obey the law, it will be more difficult to stabilize the current situation!"

It is a fact that King Jing and King Yan were close in the past. Temporarily taking back the troops in King Jing's hands is also a hidden danger at this juncture——

But now that the servant has been taken into Beijing, he only needs strict supervision. Why should he be beheaded?

Apart from others, this is the emperor's brother——

Is it really glorious to leave the reputation of mutilating brothers and sisters in history books?

The other ministers also had different faces.

King Jing is now a prisoner. There is no threat to his majesty. As a brother, why should your majesty kill them like this?

"The anti thief should be cut to pieces! I not only want to kill him, but also send his head to all governments and states for people to 'visit', I want everyone to open their eyes and have a good look at the end of the anti thief!" emperor Qingming was filled with hate: "Li Ji, draw up an order immediately! I must see others' heads fall tomorrow!"

Li Ji looked at Xie Shoufu and others quietly.

Emperor Qingming angrily urged, "why, are you deaf!"

Li Ji replied hurriedly, "yes... Yes, I'll go now."

Xie Shoufu's face was very heavy. When he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a voice from the internal prison behind him: "Your Majesty, your Highness the prince, please see me."

Emperor Qingming's voice sank: "no! Let him go back to his east palace! Don't want to interfere in my political affairs again!"

"My son has seen my father."

Turning to the prince who had entered the inner hall, Emperor Qingming was furious: "who allowed you to come in! When did you go in and out of my heart nourishing hall without permission? This is my heart nourishing hall! Cough..."

He bent over and coughed violently.

Li Ji clapped his back.

The cough became louder and more hoarse.

Seeing that he coughed almost out of breath, the prince frowned, but his eyes soon became firm.

"My father's illness is getting worse. Doctor Zheng has told me several times not to be angry and overworked. At present, the current situation is unpredictable. Urgent reports are inevitably sent to the palace every day. In order to avoid affecting my father's mood, from today on, please don't go to the heart nourishing hall. All things need to be agreed between me and you -"

The boy said in a steady voice, "if the order goes on, no one can disturb his father's rest."

Xie Shoufu looked cold and turned to look at the boy.

A moment later, he said in a slow voice: "I also think so. Your majesty is no longer fit to continue to be a director now, both physically and mentally."

He wanted to say that for a long time.

But if the prince doesn't start, he is good at mentioning this, it is the crime of being good at expertise.

The prince was surprised to say so today.

However, since the crown prince is willing to stand up and preside over the overall situation, it can't be better.

Several other ministers echoed.

Emperor Qingming couldn't easily stop his coughing. Hearing this, he almost jumped down from his bed: "what do you want to do? Help the prince usurp power and rebel! I'm the son of heaven!"

He dragged his immovable legs and struggled to get out of bed. His eyes were as red as blood.

Li Ji hurriedly stopped the man: "Your Majesty, your majesty..."

"You all want to rebel, don't you?"

"Somebody, call Han Yan into the palace immediately!"

"Commander Han is no longer here." looking at the nearly crazy man, the prince said, "it seems that my father is really ill and confused."

"I'm sober!... Wang Tong! Call Wang Tong!"

"My father only needs to see doctor Zheng now." the prince ordered the little eunuch standing aside: "it is said that doctor Zheng will come to diagnose my father."

The little eunuch responded and withdrew.

The prince saluted: "don't disturb my father's quiet rest, and my son's ministers will leave."

"I'll leave."

"You... You..." emperor Qingming fell back on his couch, his eyes widened, his chest was out of breath, his lips trembled, and he could hardly make a sound.

The prince reconciliation, Shoufu and others have withdrawn from the inner hall.

"Your Majesty has just ordered that King Jing be beheaded." Xie Shoufu whispered after stepping down the white marble steps.

"I've heard it." the prince said, "what my father said in his illness can't be true. Now just put Wang Shuan in the imperial residence and order people to take good care of him. Don't be harsh."

Solve the first and second problems.

The prince looked back at the bedroom behind him.

My father will spend his last days in this heart nourishing hall.

Really don't make any more mistakes

"See your highness, your excellency." a eunuch of the cabinet came and said, "the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is back."

Xie Shoufu nodded: "go and have a look."
