Ming: I am fake, walking on thin ice

Chapter 15 Queen Mother: The emperor in Yesen's hands is my son
Zhu Qizhen returned to the Deshengmen tower.
When Shi Biao saw him coming back, he shouted anxiously, "Your Majesty, look! The Wala army is about to attack."
Zhu Qizhen squinted his eyes and saw a team of 10,000 Oirat people running towards the city gate, but at the front of the team were hundreds of Ming Dynasty civilians.
"What should we do? They put the civilians first." Shi Biao said, "If we shoot arrows from the tower, the civilians will be the first to die."
"Then we will go out of the city to meet the enemy and rescue the people." Zhu Qizhen said.
"Leave the city?" Shi Biao was shocked. "Aren't we here to defend the city?"
Zhu Qizhen’s mind was still filled with Yu Qian’s words.
Yesen came with a great victory and was in high spirits. If we did not retreat, it would only boost their morale.
The Ming army was already feeling humiliated. Moreover, in the defeat at Tumu Fort, many of them had lost their comrades and loved ones, and they had no place to vent their hatred.
"Yesen should be conducting a tentative attack." Zhu Qizhen's eyes were cold, "I will personally lead 10,000 troops out of the city to meet the enemy and destroy Yesen's fantasy."
"I will be the vanguard for Your Majesty!" Shi Biao clasped his fists.
Boom!
After a loud bang, Deshengmen opened and 10,000 Ming troops left the city.
Zhu Qizhen took the lead and charged at the forefront.
At this moment, the 10,000-man Wala army that was charging was waving scimitars in their hands and shouting wildly.
In their view, the elite Ming army in the Battle of Tumubao were just a group of sheep, and the Ming army before them was not even as good as sheep. Just one charge would defeat them.
The two armies were getting closer and closer and were about to collide.
The Wala army in the front felt something was wrong. The Ming soldiers had red eyes, like wolves that had been hungry for more than ten days.
……
Deshengmen Tower.
Queen Mother Sun Ruowei hurried upstairs, but the soldiers didn't notice her because their eyes were all on the two armies that were about to collide outside the city.
His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is at the forefront of the charge!
The soldiers' hearts were in their throats, staring at the charging figure.
"Your Majesty really charged into the battle himself!" the Queen Mother was shocked.
Her body trembled visibly, of course she was worried about the safety of His Majesty. Her eyes also fell on the charging Zhu Qizhen, with mixed emotions. "It would be great if Your Majesty was so mature from the beginning?"
Shuangxi, the maidservant beside him, pointed to the front of Yesen's central army and exclaimed in a trembling voice: "Queen Mother, is that the fake emperor that Yesen captured?"
The Queen Mother paused and looked away.
She raised the telescope that was tributed from the West and looked at the front of Yesen's army.
There was a man standing in front of the battle formation with his hands tied. The Queen Mother saw the man clearly through the telescope and her face changed drastically.
Through the telescope, the man can be seen clearly.
The man had an untidy beard, a dejected look, and a dull gaze.
But she recognized it at a glance; it was her own son!
Bang!
The telescope fell to the ground, and she almost lost her balance. Shuangxi quickly supported her and shouted, "Queen Dowager...Queen Dowager, I'd better help you back to the palace."
The Queen Mother held onto the city wall with both hands, panic, anger, and murderous intent flashing in her eyes.
Mother and child are connected by heart!
She didn't need any evidence to know that the emperor Yesen captured was her son.
So, His Majesty who came back from the front line is fake!
"Your Majesty!" The soldiers on the city wall suddenly shouted.
The empress dowager came to her senses and looked at Zhu Qizhen who was charging.
The two armies had already faced each other, and Zhu Qizhen killed the enemy general with one sword, which greatly boosted the morale of the Ming army. "Soldiers!" Zhu Qizhen shouted, "Follow me to kill the enemy!"
The Ming army used an overwhelming force to break through the ten thousand strong Oirat army. Zhu Qizhen rushed to the front with a long sword in his hand.
"Kill!"
The Ming army saw how brave the emperor was, so what were they waiting for? They fought bravely against the enemy.
Not long after, the 10,000-man Wala army collapsed and fled in all directions.
Zhu Qizhen took the opportunity to command: "Don't chase, protect the people into the city!"
He moved back and forth in the Wala army, and flashes of swords were seen, accompanied by bursts of blood.
He did not ride back to the city until all the captured civilians were escorted into the city.
In the first battle, the Ming army won a great victory!
……
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
The defenders on Deshengmen cheered in unison, their eyes burning with enthusiasm, and their morale was greatly boosted.
The Queen Mother, who was standing on the city wall, felt extremely complicated when she saw this scene.
If we investigate whether the emperor is real or fake at this time, the military morale that has been boosted with great difficulty will completely collapse.
Moreover, compared with this heroic Majesty, the captured Majesty is nothing but a disgrace. Who in the court and the entire army would believe a humiliated Majesty?
The Queen Mother clenched her fists, veins bulged on her forehead, she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Soon, Zhu Qizhen climbed up the city wall with blood all over his armor.
"Mother?" He hurried to the Queen Mother and bowed, "It's too dangerous here. Why are you here? Mother, please go back to the palace."
The Queen Mother patted him on the shoulder and smiled:
"My son is not afraid, so why should I be afraid? My son is brave and I am happy, very happy. If your grandfather and your father knew about this, they would definitely be happy too."
"You are finally able to shoulder the heavy burden of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Qizhen shook his head, his face sincere: "No! Mother, my son is still young. It was because I didn't listen to you before that I caused the disaster today. In the future, I will need your guidance."
"I am very pleased!" The Queen Mother nodded repeatedly.
Zhu Qizhen helped the empress dowager down from the tower and said, "Yesen's attack this time is just a test, and the decisive battle is still to come. Once the decisive battle begins, the army will all go out of the nine gates. At that time, the city gates will be closed. If you don't win, you will die! Mother, you must be mentally prepared."
The Queen Mother's body suddenly paused.
She was a little confused now. Was this her son? If he was a fake, why did he do that? Going out of the city to fight was a life-or-death struggle.
"If we lose!" The Queen Mother laughed bitterly, "I will have no choice but to jump off the tower and sacrifice my life for my country!"
The Ming Dynasty cannot afford to lose this battle!
If we lose the war, the country will be destroyed!
She turned to look at Zhu Qizhen, her eyes evasive again, and said, "I believe you! I'll be in Kunning Palace, waiting for you to return."
"Mother, take care!" Zhu Qizhen bowed.
The Queen Mother nodded and returned to the palace surrounded by her maids.
Zhu Qizhen looked at her back and thought to himself, the Queen Mother must have seen her son and must have doubts in her heart. However, as long as I establish my prestige in this war, she will not dare to act rashly even if she doubts.
After all, everyone in the court and the country believes that I am the real emperor.
The Ming Dynasty needed a brave and capable emperor, not a captured emperor.
"I'm risking my life for my future." He muttered to himself, "If I can't establish my prestige in this battle, I'll be walking on thin ice in the future. I may die at any time!"
He clenched the knife in his hand, as if he was holding his own destiny.
