Chapter 905 Supervising the Country(1/2)

Today is supposed to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, a festival for family reunions, but due to the incident of a wooden fortress, everyone in the bustling and prosperous capital suddenly felt in danger. The government and the public were shocked, and countless wealthy households were preparing to flee with their families.

In the Wenhua Hall, Queen Mother Sun was sitting on a chair with her head covered. Zhou Yu also sat on another chair with his hands in his hands. He looked at the noisy civil and military ministers below and just thought they were watching a show, walking in and out.

I went to the toilet to have a cup of tea and chat with someone, but no one paid any attention to me.

While watching the play, Zhou Yu was still thinking about the current situation in his mind. The Tumu Fort Incident had a huge impact, and the reason was that Emperor Baozong did not go to Weizhou as planned and returned to the Great Wall from Zijingguan.

, but went to Tumu Fort on an impromptu basis, and those who were invaded were captured alive by grabbing their tails first.

What's interesting is that Tumubao is only over a hundred kilometers away from the capital. You can go back and forth several times a day at a high speed. To the northwest is the important town of Xuanfu, and to the south is Juyongguan. This guy happened to be wrapped in a dumpling in the middle.

Miserable is really miserable, stupid is really stupid.

There was a quarrel below, and Zhou Yu was wandering in the sky. Someone suddenly stood up and saluted in the direction of the Queen Mother Sun. This immediately made the eyelids of several ministers who were in the imperial study room jump up.

"Queen Mother, the capital is now in chaos and there are not enough soldiers. It can be said that we are facing a crisis. I ask the Queen Mother to recall Yu Qian immediately."

"Yu Qian..." Empress Dowager Sun suddenly realized that this was a minister who had stayed behind during the reign of Emperor Chengzu to give him a heavy responsibility, but now he was sent to burn a kiln: "Yes, recall Yu Qian quickly."

An old man stood up quickly: "Queen Queen, please be patient. Although Yu Qian has both talents and talents, he has a naughty character and has been sent away. This matter has been decreed by His Majesty and is a state matter. Do you still need to ask the Supervisor for instructions on recalling Yu Qian?"

?Wang Wang, do you see?"

Zhou Yu came back to his senses and suddenly smiled: "It's true, I turned out to be the supervisor of the country. I thought you all had forgotten that Taizu once said that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics. You all forgot that this world belongs to the Zhu family. I even more

I thought you were preparing to learn from the Great Tang Dynasty and create a Sun Emperor after Emperor Wu. In this way, you will all be ministers of the Dragon."

Although these words were said with a smile, everyone who heard Zhou Yu's words immediately started sweating on their foreheads. The entire Wenhua Palace fell silent instantly, looking at Zhou Yu and Queen Mother Sun in shock and horror.

These words may seem like a complaint, but in fact they are a complaint and a reminder of who is supervising the country and who should have the greatest rights here.

Zhou Yu stood up and saluted the Empress Dowager Sun: "Excuse me, the Empress Dowager, whether this is a state matter or a family matter. If it is a family matter, these ministers can go back. If it is a state matter, please let the Queen Mother drive back to the palace."

"Bastard!" Empress Dowager Sun flushed with anger, raised her hand and pointed angrily at Zhou Yu: "This matter is both a state matter and a family matter. I wonder why the Empress Dowager can't take care of it!"

"I forgot again, the Queen Mother is sitting on a dragon chair? So that's it..." Zhou Yu nodded, knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor! I congratulate the Queen Mother on her ascension to the throne!"

From today on, the world will probably have the surname Sun. Since it belongs to the Sun family, what does it have to do with my Zhu family? I want to see if these ministers are ministers of your Sun family or my Zhu family!"

This scene shocked everyone's jaws. Some ministers with poor mental endurance sat down on the ground. Several cabinet ministers hurriedly came up and said in panic: "King Tan, this can't be done, this can't be done.

, get up, get up, there are no treacherous ministers and traitors here, that is the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, a member of the Zhu family, and I am also a member of the Zhu family, my lord!"

Zhou Yu stood up with a gentle help, very attentive.

Empress Dowager Sun stared at Zhou Yu, wishing to cut this bastard into pieces with a thousand knives. Zhou Yu also looked at Empress Dowager Sun, and his meaning was very obvious. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so you just need to take care of yourself in old age.

"It's the Queen Mother!"

"The Queen Mother is here!"

A minister hurriedly exclaimed, and then made way for the Queen Mother, who was being supported by a palace maid, to enter the Wenhua Hall.

Empress Dowager Sun also quickly stood up and walked down the steps, saying respectfully: "The Empress Dowager."

The Queen Mother looked at it and said slowly: "Who was talking nonsense just now?"

"It's your grandson." Zhou Yu knelt down and kowtowed to the Empress Dowager: "My grandson just wants to confirm who is the prisoner of the country and whose family this country is. It is an iron rule set by Emperor Taizu that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

Naturally, I want to ask clearly whether the emperor’s brother is captured, whether Wala may attack the capital at any time, and whether the chaos in the capital is a state matter or a family matter."

"If it is a state matter, please ask the Queen Mother to return to the palace without interfering. If it is a family matter, there is no way to treat it humanely. Then the ministers can leave the Wenhua Palace to discuss the family matter first and come to a conclusion. If the state matter is also a family matter, then

The only precedent is the Zhou Dynasty

Emperor Wu, whose brother is already an adult, now orders his grandson to supervise the country. Then his grandson will rule the country on his behalf. Why does it need a person from the harem to point fingers here? Grandson sees that not only the queen mother is thinking about power, but also these ministers are forgetting

Who owns the world in this world?"

"Nonsense." The Empress Dowager glanced at Zhou Yu accusingly, and said softly: "The Empress Dowager didn't mean that. She just thought that you are young and inexperienced and should pay more attention. The ministers will not be ignorant. This Zhu family

No one in the world can change it."

"That's what the Empress Dowager said."

"I will only be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the royal family of the Ming Dynasty."

The two cabinet ministers spoke quickly, and naturally other ministers also expressed their opinions one after another.

"Get up." The Empress Dowager patted Zhou Yu and looked at the Empress Dowager Sun: "Daughter-in-law, the children have grown up, and the affairs of the country should be left to them. The affairs of the country should be left to them.

The emperor has the final say, and when the emperor is not in charge of the country, the queen has the final say in household matters. Since the empress dowager has passed the time of listening to politics behind the curtain, she should stop meddling in things that shouldn't be done."

The Empress Dowager Sun's body was trembling slightly. She could deny Zhou Yu's words, or even accuse Zhou Yu of being unfilial and ulterior, but when the Empress Dowager said such words in front of so many ministers, the Empress Dowager Sun

Then you have no right to choose at all.

If she refutes, it would be unfilial and ulterior, which means that she wants to change her face and become the queen. But as long as she dares to refute now, she will probably be killed by a glass of poisonous wine immediately.

Queen Mother Sun slowly knelt down and said tremblingly: "Daughter-in-law...Daughter-in-law knows."

"Okay, you and I are here to listen." The Empress Dowager personally helped up the Empress Dowager Sun, looked at Zhou Yu and said: "King Xin, just start whatever you want to say. We'll see if there's anything wrong with me.

The Queen Mother and the ministers will also give you some advice."

"Thank you, the Empress Dowager." Zhou Yu bowed and saluted again, and then looked at the ministers: "I have listened to you talking for a long time. In such a long time, you can't come up with any proper solution. There is also the one who said to let Yu Qian come back.

Yes, go and ask someone to bring Yu Qian back."

"The failure of Tumu Fort is inevitable. As for whether the emperor brother is dead or alive, we must investigate clearly and announce it to the world to calm the people. Everyone can surrender, but only the emperor cannot. The emperor guards the country and the king dies. This is our Zhu family's

ancestral precepts, please ministers also proclaim

Yang goes out, if the bandits really come to the capital, I, as the supervisor, will definitely die in front of all the people! But if any of you ministers are holding you back, I will first cut off their sacrificial flags, confiscate their property, and distribute rewards to the soldiers.

Boost their morale!"

"Obey the order of the country."

All the ministers knelt down and shouted in unison.

"Get up, don't start chaos before the enemies come over." Zhou Yu said calmly: "From now on, the city gates will be closed and no one can enter or exit without an order. Anyone who wants to leave the city without an order will be killed without mercy, their property will be confiscated, and the people will be killed."

The only one who can't run is

Rich businessmen, keep an eye on these rich businessmen who dare to speculate on food prices and raid their homes and kill them without mercy. I am worried that I can't find the gold and silver that can be rewarded to the soldiers. Those who do not abandon the country will abandon the country first and can be killed. Those who spread rumors and disturb the people can be killed. Take advantage of this opportunity.

Anyone who seizes power for personal gain may be killed."

"yes."

"This Tumu Fort defeat is very strange. How could such a thing happen only two hundred miles away from the capital? It would have been impossible without someone's support. I suspect that there is an orphan from Jingnan who is causing trouble, and it is easy to do so.

The sect caused the loss of many good ministers and generals in this dynasty, so the commander of Jin Yiwei, Ma Shun, was ordered to investigate the matter thoroughly."

A minister looked up at Zhou Yu in astonishment: "Ma Shun him..."

"Are you Jingnan's orphan?" Zhou Yu glanced at the minister coldly: "You want to plead for Jingnan's orphan? I know what you want to say. Ma Shun is Ma Shun and Wang Zhen is Wang Zhen. This time it is like Ma Shun.

Being able to make meritorious deeds can be regarded as a prodigal son turning back. If he can't do well, he will kill the nine tribes."

"I don't dare! I understand."

Queen Mother Sun's eyes widened and her body began to tremble violently. A look of panic suddenly appeared on her face.

Zhou Yu sat back on his chair and said: "There are not enough soldiers now, but it is not that there are no available soldiers. In a place as big as a Tumu fort, even if an army of 200,000 people is asked to line up to kill them, it is impossible to kill them in one night.

After killing them, immediately send people to collect the remaining soldiers along the way and recover the available equipment, food and fodder to reorganize the army."

"yes."

Zhou Yu made a bunch of arrangements without looking at the map or asking questions. He had already thoroughly understood the situation during the quarrel among the ministers just now. Now it was natural to make various arrangements easily.

"I ordered General Chen Mao to divide 50,000 troops and return to the capital immediately to prepare for the Japanese army. Bei Cao's army was also transferred to the capital, and the armaments from the Nanjing arsenal were also sent over. I ordered Southwest Wang Ji and Zhang Fu to stand firm and not to send troops at will."

"The nine towns are ordered to hold fast to the city and not to be disrupted by the defeat of other places."

"The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs must prepare wartime supplies and armament supplies."

"I also ordered Wang Shan to raid Wang Zhen's house. I know Wang Shan is Wang Zhen's nephew, but at this time, only the closest people can find all the things Wang Zhen is greedy for. In troubled times, the first thing to do is to use your energy.

On issues that should be resolved.”

"Go and make arrangements. Prepare more gunpowder and arrows. Arrange everything and start moving quickly. The elders should also pay more attention to the situation in other cities and remind nearby cities to be more careful."

Zhou Yu continued to arrange some other things, and dealt with all the problems that needed to be dealt with in a tight and orderly manner. Then he walked to the Empress Dowager Sun and the Empress Dowager and saluted.

"Grandma, Queen Mother, I don't know if these arrangements of mine are still appropriate."

"Not bad, not bad." It was obvious that she couldn't smile, but there was a smile on the face of the Empress Dowager: "You have done a good job. I can rest assured that you are here to supervise the country, but why didn't I hear it just now?

You come up with a way to save your imperial brother."

Zhou Yu said: "Grandma, if you want to save the emperor brother, you must first determine his life or death. However, the safety of an emperor is still too small compared to the safety of a country. The first thing to do is definitely not to save the emperor brother, but to save the emperor brother."

Stabilize the Ming Dynasty left by our ancestors and protect the millions of people in the world."

"And if the emperor's brother is still alive as a hostage, Wala will never send him back easily. What if Wala proposes to cede the land? Emperor Taizu said that there will be no marriage without ceding land, and no compensation will be paid without surrender, so even if he wants

There is no other way to save the emperor."

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly: "Okay, you make the decision for the supervision of the country, but you must bring your imperial brother back."

"Okay grandma."
