Chapter 312 The Son of Heaven Appears, Rebuking the Rebels!
Gao Qiqian whispered to Zhu Youjian: "My lord, there is no turning back when you shoot your bow. Now that you are willing to defend Confucian orthodoxy with Confucian scholars and scholars all over the world! You can't hesitate!"
Zhu Youjian nodded after listening, and then said to Wei Zhongxian: "You invite the king of Tang to come, and I will ask him face to face!"
Not long after, Tang Wang Zhu Qiqi came, accompanied by his eldest son Zhu Yujian.
As soon as Zhu Youjian saw Zhu Qiqi, he questioned Zhu Qiqi loudly: "Zhu Qiqi, the emperor has always treated you well, why are you not loyal to him?!"
Zhu Qiqi was greatly surprised: "Xin Wang, where did you say this, how dare you be disloyal to His Majesty."
Zhu Youjian sneered, and said: "Since you are loyal to His Majesty, why did you collude with eunuchs and traitors to rebel and seize the throne?!"
"How can this happen!"
Zhu Qiqi replied loudly, and said: "King Xin, why did you wrong Gu, Gu is not one of His Majesty, how dare you covet the big position!"
Wei Zhongxian said: "His Royal Highness Xin Wang, you should believe it now, how could our family conspire with Tang Wang?!"
"How is it impossible?!"
Zhu Youjian asked a question, and said: "Who doesn't know that you, Wei Zhongxian, and the king of Tang have already worked together to deceive the emperor, steal power, and bring disaster to the world, and the empress has long been dissatisfied with your behavior, and even Compare you to Zhao Gao! Now that you are worried that the crown prince will ascend the throne, the empress will take the opportunity to punish you, so you will naturally choose someone else as the master!"
Zhu Youjian asked sharply after speaking: "Do you think so?!"
Wei Zhongxian's face darkened after hearing this.
He realized that His Royal Highness Xin Wang no longer intends to believe in himself.
"His Royal Highness Xin Wang!"
Zhu Qiqi shouted excitedly at this moment.
He really didn't understand why people always misunderstood him. In the past, his father misunderstood him, thinking that he was going to seek the throne, but now he was trusted by the emperor, and he stayed with the emperor to do research together. Want to seize the throne!
After Zhu Qiqi yelled, he asked Zhu Youjian: "How can you believe that you are not rebellious?"
Zhu Youjian was stopped by Zhu Qiqi's question.
At this time, Gao Qiqian spoke for Zhu You: "Unless you die!"
As he spoke, Gao Qiqian laughed triumphantly.
Zhu Youjian also had to admit that Gao Qiqian's trick was brilliant.
"Yes, unless you die!"
At this time, Fu Yijian, the scholars and civil officials who supported the king of Xin, also booed.
Zhu Youjian nodded: "Yes, unless you die!"
Shua!
Suddenly, taking advantage of Yijinyiwei's inattention, Zhu Qiqi pulled out Yijinyiwei's Xiuchun knife, turned the blade around, and put it on his neck, looking at Zhu Youjian and Gao Qiqian: "If that's the case, that's lonely death!"
This scene stunned everyone present.
Zhu Youjian never thought that Zhu Qiqi would really draw his sword and kill himself.
Seeing this, Gao Qiqian was worried that Zhu Youjian would back down and make his plan fall short, so he sneered first: "That's good, show us your death! Let us believe in you, King Tang." His Highness did not rebel, nor did he want to be emperor."
"Father!"
Zhu Yujian yelled hurriedly at this moment, and was about to roll down tears nervously.
Zhu Qiqi glanced at Zhu Yujian: "Enough of being alone! My son, take care of yourself! I thought that without your grandfather, this kind of thing would never happen again, but it still happened."
"Father, don't want it!"
Zhu Yujian spat out two words in a voice almost begging, and then looked at Zhu Youjian and Gao Qiqian with eyes full of anger.
Zhu Yujian gritted his teeth and asked, "Why do you implicate us if you want to force the palace?!"
"You can only blame them!"
At this time, Fu Yijian pointed to Wei Zhongxian and said, "It's my fault that they broke my Ming Dynasty's ancestral system, so that you vassal kings can't be kind to the fief, but stay in the capital in the name of studying and academics. If you are not in the capital , Naturally, there is no need to prove yourself to death like this."
Gao Qiqian also smiled proudly: "That's right! His Royal Highness Tang Wang, now you can only prove your loyalty by dying!"
As he spoke, Gao Qiqian bared his teeth and roared, "Die!"
Then, Gao Qiqian pointed at Zhu Yujian: "And you! Your Royal Highness, you have to prove yourself by death, otherwise who would believe it, did you also collude with Wei Zhongxian?!"
Fu Yijian followed with a sneer, and echoed: "That's right!"
Zhu Yujian glanced at Zhu Qiqi.
Zhu Qiqi commanded Zhu Yujian, "Draw your sword!"
Zhu Yujian yelled and cried: "It's not that the child is afraid of death, but that it's not worth it!"
Zhu Qiqi asked: "Your and my lives are more important, or Daming's foundation is more important?! You and I should have been poisoned to death by your grandfather and your uncle long ago, but now it is only because of Uncle Guo's rescue that we have lived a few more years. "
"yes!"
Zhu Yujian also drew out his knife, ready to kill himself.
Gao Qiqian and Fu Yijian looked at each other and smiled.
Zhu Youjian and Wei Zhongxian looked at everything coldly.
Zhu Youjian said first: "Then you can prove it to us now, and prove yourself by death!"
Zhu Qiqi and Zhu Yujian looked at each other and were about to wipe their necks.
Zhu Youjian's heart also raised his throat.
"Your Majesty has returned to court!"
"Your Majesty has returned to court!"
…
The rapid sound of horseshoes came from outside the dim palace lanterns in the evening.
Accompanied by the shouts of the guards' orderlies.
Wei Zhongxian hurriedly held the hand of Tang Wang to prevent him from committing suicide: "We will talk about it when His Majesty comes back!"
"Teacher returning to court?"
Zhu Youjian asked Gao Qiqian at this time.
Gao Qiqian looked at Fu Yijian.
Kong Zhenyun and Wu Zongda had already slipped away quietly when they saw this.
Many civil servants in the back are beginning to slip away quietly.
They are speculators, and when the situation is slightly unclear, they will naturally withdraw decisively.
Zhu Youjian also wanted to evacuate, but his identity determined that he could not evacuate quietly.
"Fake!"
After Fu Yijian pondered for a while, he suddenly said something.
Gao Qiqian also understood instantly: "That's right! It must be fake!"
Speaking, Gao Qiqian scolded Wei Zhongxian: "Wei Zhongxian, this must be fake news made by you, how can your majesty return to the court!"
Zhu Youjian took a few steps back because of this, and ordered: "Regardless of whether it is true or not, kill Wei Zhongxian, as well as the king of Tang and his son! Take his head to see the empress!"
"yes!"
Wei Zhongxian saw Zhu Youjian retreating here, so he also retreated a few steps, and ordered: "The rebels are making trouble, and they will be killed without mercy!"
boom!
Whoosh!
Thereupon, Jin Yiwei fought **** with the armed soldiers supporting King Xin on the opposite side.
For a while, both sides fell down, and neither retreated.
The armed scholars who dared to launch a coup d’état were all wealthy scholars who sincerely wanted to defend Confucian ethics orthodoxy.
And Jin Yiwei were all selected from good families with clean backgrounds, and they were all educated and mobilized. They knew that these people in front of them were sabotaging the New Deal and not letting them, middle and lower-level officials, schools, and even ordinary people, launch a coup with the court. They also knew that If these people are allowed to succeed, most of them will be streamlined and laid off, and they may even become slaves enslaved by the powerful.
Take the interests of Maoshan Iron Mine as an example.
Jinyiwei knew that if these people succeeded, the Maoshan Iron Mine could only be divided up by a few forces behind them, but if these people failed, they could still enjoy the benefits by holding stocks.
Thus, the royal guards were also fighting hard without any timidity.
Both sides suffered casualties for a while.
The armed scholars are obviously more anxious, and their minds are full of defending the orthodox beliefs of Confucianism. Some scholars simply ignited the gunpowder bags and rushed towards the Jinyiwei team, trying to die with the Jinyiwei directly. Li also shouted loudly: "Sacrifice your life to defend the way! Discipline evil!"
boom!
After the explosion, many Jin Yiwei were killed and injured together with the scholar.
But behind the gunpowder smoke, a large group of guards with live ammunition has appeared, and there is still a day to go.
At this time, Tianqi had already made his move on the horse, and asked loudly: "What is Wei's way, the way of a monarch, or the way of a minister?! What kind of rebellion are you asking for, and who is the rebellion!"
