Ming Dynasty: Regrets about the Jingnan Rebellion? I changed it in a dream!

Chapter 74 Zhu Di: Even at an old age, he still has to clean up the mess for his descendants
Xu Youzhen was speechless.

Indeed, if Zhu Gaoxu had not come to Beijing, Zhu Qiyu would most likely have ascended the throne and become emperor by now.

The Ming Dynasty then had two living brother emperors.

At this time, Yu Qian, who had been silent for a long time, stood up and said, "Your Highness, you came to the capital under the will of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong."

"It doesn't matter whether it's the imperial precepts of the Ming dynasty, or the will of Emperor Taizong, or even hundreds or thousands of years ago."

"There has never been a case of two emperors ascending the throne at the same time in a court."

"Even if there are two emperors coexisting, they are the emperor emeritus and the emperor."

Zhu Gaoxu's proposal was unreasonable.

How could two brothers ascend the throne and become emperors at the same time? There has never been such a case since the establishment of the Qin Dynasty.

Even the situation of having two emperors in one dynasty is rare, and they are basically the retired emperor and the emperor.

It is impossible to have two systems in one country.

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu looked towards Yu Qian.

"Your name is Yu Qian?"

"Yes."

"I recognize you. It was you who said in the court that you wanted to invite me to the capital to bring peace to the capital and the country, right?"

Of course, he knew Yu Qian's ideas.

If Sun Ruowei hadn't stopped him, he would have easily obtained the throne without even having to rebel.

He also admired Yu Qian very much.

"I have no other thoughts but to protect the country and the capital."

Although the ministers tried their best to stop him, he was the one in power now.

The entire capital's military forces were mobilized by him and Zhu Gaosui, and news of his campaign to quell the rebellion was received successively from all parts of the country.

Those who live nearby have already written letters to congratulate the new emperor on his ascension to the throne.

Naturally, he couldn't be led by the nose by this group of civil servants.

"Okay, Xu Youzhen, I know you are a smart person."

"Change it as I say."

"We, the Prince of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, and the Prince of Zhao, Zhu Gaosui, share the world. If anyone is dissatisfied, you can speak out in court."

Zhu Gaoxu stood up, his eyes filled with coldness, looking down upon his ministers.

This is his attitude and his decision, and no one can refute it.

At this time, Yu Qian still stood up and said: "This is not in accordance with the rules."

Zhu Gaoxu said somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Yu Qian, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Yu Qian responded calmly: "If Your Highness the King of Han wants to kill me because of my frank words, then I have nothing to say."

"Even if you want to kill me, I will still say the same thing."

"Unless Emperor Taizong is here, otherwise, having two emperors at the same time would be against the rules and would lead to chaos in the country and government."

If there are two emperors in a country, who should be listened to when encountering major events?

In this situation, if the two emperors disagreed and had a rift in their hearts, civil war could easily break out, which is why he firmly opposed it.

In war, it is the people who are ultimately hurt.

Especially the internal war.

There is no way to get him to agree to this proposal unless Emperor Taizong is here.

Zhu Gaoxu was helpless when he saw the stubborn Yu Qian. He said to Zhu Gaosui, "Old Third, tell me, how should we deal with Yu Qian?"

Zhu Gaosui was quite tactful about this and said with a smile.

"Brother, I am satisfied if you have this attitude."

"Although Yu Qian speaks bluntly, he is also thinking about the country. The defense of the capital still needs manpower. It is better to let him contribute to the country than to kill him."

"Send him to the front line, even as a lieutenant general, to temper his character."

Zhu Gaoxu looked at Yu Qian and asked, "Did you hear what the King of Zhao said?"

Beside him, the Minister of Personnel Wang Zhi and Wang Hong, who had just been promoted to the Minister of Revenue, were both gossiping about Yu Qian.

They wanted to make them surrender, but Yu Qian ignored their actions.

Instead, he took off his black hat and then his blue official robe.

He folded them neatly on the ground and said, "Yu Qian obeys your command."

After saying this, Yu Qian left the Jinluan Palace. He was a civil servant, and it would be easy for him to die if he served as a general on the front line without the protection of his personal guards.

However, he didn't care.

Looking at the upright Yu Qian, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui smiled at each other.

I didn't expect that there are such honest people in this world.

Be stubborn.

This reminded them of the two old guys, Xia Yuanji and Jian Yi, who, like Yu Qian, were capable, stubborn and straightforward at times.

This kind of person is easy to control and can be reused.

"What about the rest of you? Does anyone have any objections?"

Zhu Gaoxu asked calmly, "Is there anyone else who is dissatisfied?"

All the ministers were silent. This dynasty has never had two emperors before.

But it has to be said.

There were many people who made big promises, but Zhu Gaoxu was the only one who promised to share the world with him.

This courage alone is worthy of praise.

"Since you all have no objections, Xu Youzhen, you should know how to write it, right?"

"Ming, I understand."

……

Grassland, the main camp of the Wala army.

Zhu Qizhen was now wearing the clothes of the Oirat people. He had a handsome face and stood out among the other men.

The leader of the Oirat tribe, Yesen, glanced at Zhu Qizhen and began speaking Mongolian to the generals under his seat.

"I just got the news that the Ming Dynasty has a new emperor."

Upon hearing this, the other leaders were a little surprised.

"So fast?"

Yesen's expression was obviously not very good.

In fact, the change of emperor in the Ming Dynasty was within his expectations, but this emperor was really hard to accept.

"Well, the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty is the second son of that madman Zhu Di, Prince of Han Zhu Gaoxu."

Although the King of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, was not as famous as the madman Zhu Di on the grassland.

But he is also a very difficult person.

If he became emperor, he might be the next Zhu Di.

"What should we do now?" The leaders of various tribes discussed among themselves.

At the same time, someone looked at Zhu Qizhen beside him and suggested: "Otherwise, let Zhu Qizhen go back and let them fight each other."

"I heard that the Prince of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor by rebelling."

"Maybe, we can release this young emperor and let them tear each other apart. Then, we can take advantage of the opportunity and swoop in."

Yesen directly rejected the proposal.

"No, this Ming Dynasty emperor is our bargaining chip, we can't let him go easily."

"At the very least, he was once the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. This alone is enough for us to profit from it."

"Besides, I want to use him to control the Ming Dynasty."

"Even though Zhu Gaoxu is a tough opponent, the Battle of Tumubao wiped out the elite troops of the Ming army. Unless that madman Zhu Di crawls out from underground."

"Otherwise, there is nothing to be afraid of."

If the Three Thousand Battalions and the Shenji Battalion had not been completely destroyed, he might still be afraid of Zhu Gaoxu.

But the elite soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, the Three Thousand Battalion, all died in Tumu Fort.

So what if it was Zhu Gaoxu?

A brave general without soldiers is like a fierce tiger without teeth.

It just looks scary.

"However, Zhu Gaoxu had helped Zhu Di to quell the rebellion and had made many military achievements. His military ability was outstanding."

"Even if he has no generals or soldiers, we cannot underestimate or despise him."
