Chapter 15
【Yu Qian's ending: The Incident of Seizing the Gate and dying unjustly】
【In 1457, Emperor Yingzong of Ming restored his throne through the "Incident of Seizing the Gate."
Political enemies like Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen, in order to eliminate Yu Qian, framed him for "intending" to support a foreign vassal. Yu Qian was sentenced to death and was killed at the East Market in Beijing.
When his home was raided, except for the python robe and sword given by the Emperor, there was no surplus wealth, truly achieving "Not afraid of being crushed to pieces, only wanting to leave purity in the world."】
In the footage, Yu Qian was escorted to the execution ground, his hair white, but his eyes calm.
He looked up at the sky and recited a poem softly.
Then, the blade fell.
Fresh blood splashed.
Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane.
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up abruptly, his eyes almost splitting.
"What? Yu Qian was killed? Killed by that trash Emperor?"
His voice was trembling, not knowing if it was from anger or pain.
Empress Ma pulled him tightly:
"Chongba, that is a matter of later generations, you can't control it!"
Zhu Yuanzhang threw her hand away:
"I can't control it, but I have to scold him! Zhu Qizhen, that trash, he is a muddled ruler! What right does he have to kill Yu Qian? Yu Qian saved his territory, Yu Qian preserved his throne!"
Zhu Biao hurriedly stepped forward: "Father, calm down! Father, calm down!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was panting, tears swirling in his eyes:
"Yu Qian... Yu Qian was clean and honest all his life, and there was no surplus wealth when his home was raided... How did he do it? How did he do it?"
Xu Da's eyes also turned red: "Your Majesty, this subject... this subject admires him."
Lan Yu rarely lowered his head, his voice somewhat hoarse:
"This kind of person, I, Lan Yu, admire."
Li Wenzhong gritted his teeth and said: "That Zhu Qizhen, if I were there, I would definitely chop him up!"
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought of something and turned around abruptly:
"Zhu Qizhen? The 'Qi' generation? Zhu Biao, do you have any sons in the 'Qi' generation?"
Zhu Biao was stunned and thought for a moment: "Father, this son's sons... do not have the 'Qi' generation."
Zhu Yuanzhang's face changed: "Then which branch is this Zhu Qizhen from?"
Li Shanchang said cautiously: "Your Majesty, this subject remembers... the Yan Prince's branch has the 'Qi' generation."
"Yan Prince?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, "Zhu Di?"
The civil and military officials looked at each other.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned completely black.
"Someone!"
"This subject is here!"
"Immediately send someone to Beiping, tell that rabbit Zhu Di to return to the capital immediately, now! Immediately!"
Empress Ma hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Yan Prince is far away in Beiping, even if he returns to the capital immediately, it will take several days..."
Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth: "Then send someone! I want to ask him in person, how his descendants produced such trash!"
Zhu Biao said softly: "Father, that Zhu Qizhen is a person of later generations, the Yan Prince doesn't know either..."
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him: "I know! But I'm just angry! I just want to scold him!"
Yongle plane.
Zhu Di's face also changed.
"Zhu Qizhen... the 'Qi' generation..."
He turned his head slowly and looked at Zhu Zhanji.
Zhu Zhanji was stunned, and then his face turned white.
"Grandfather... this... this..."
Zhu Gaoxu said sarcastically on the side:
"Oh, the 'Qi' generation, isn't this Zhanji's descendant?"
Zhu Di's face turned completely black.
"Zhu Zhanji!"
Zhu Zhanji knelt down with a thud,
"Grandfather, spare my life! Grandfather, spare my life! This grandson also doesn't know that later generations would be like this."
Zhu Di pointed at his nose and scolded:
"You raised a good descendant, a 500,000-strong army completely wiped out, the Emperor was captured, and he even killed Yu Qian."
Zhu Zhanji kowtowed like garlic:
"Grandfather, this grandson knows he was wrong! This grandson knows he was wrong!"
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said: "Father, Zhanji also doesn't know about the affairs of later generations..."
Zhu Di glared at Zhu Gaochi,
Zhu Gaochi took a step back and had to shut his mouth.
Zhu Gaoxu was gloating on the side.
Zhu Di took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"From today on, I want to set a rule—the Emperor of Great Ming must never be this Zhu Qizhen!"
Zhu Zhanji nodded repeatedly: "This grandson will remember it! This grandson will definitely remember it!"
Zhu Di added: "Also, Yu Qian is a loyal official of my Great Ming, and no one must be allowed to harm him. Zhu Zhanji, if you dare to touch Yu Qian, I will abolish you right now!"
Zhu Zhanji nodded repeatedly: "This grandson will remember it, this grandson will definitely reuse Yu Qian in the future."
Qing Dynasty, Qianlong plane.
Qianlong watched this scene with mixed feelings.
On one hand, he felt that Zhu Qizhen was indeed trash, a 500,000-strong army completely wiped out, the Emperor was captured, this was even more shameful than when his Great Qing was shameful.
On the other hand, he was gloating a little—the Ming Dynasty also had such shameful times.
Heshen watched his expression cautiously and whispered: "Your Majesty, this Ming Dynasty..."
Qianlong waved his hand: "I know. This Zhu Qizhen is indeed trash."
Heshen nodded hurriedly: "Your Majesty is right. But compared to Your Majesty, he is still far behind."
Qianlong smiled with satisfaction.
On the sky screen, golden light shone brightly.
【Video producer Mr. Gu rewards the seventh place on the Huaxia Heroes List, Yu Qian—】
【Twenty years of lifespan!】
【Nine thousand fine warhorses!】
Two beams of golden light descended from the sky.
One entered Yu Qian's body, and one fell into the square in front of the palace.
Ming Dynasty, Yongle plane.
Nine thousand warhorses appeared out of thin air in the square, their coats bright and their bodies strong, looking like fine breeds at a glance.
Zhu Di was stunned.
Zhu Gaochi was stunned.
Everyone was stunned.
Then—
"Holy cow!"
Zhu Gaoxu was the first to rush over, "Nine thousand warhorses! Nine thousand!"
Zhu Gaosui also ran over,
"Father! Look! These horses are even better than ours!"
Zhu Gaochi walked over slowly, his eyes also brightening.
Zhu Di took a deep breath, looked up at the sky screen, and bowed,
"Zhu Di, kowtows to thank Immortal Gu!"
Nine thousand fine warhorses, what did this mean?
It meant he could build a cavalry battalion of ten thousand!
It meant he, Zhu Di, could sweep across the north of the desert!
Zhu Zhanji also knelt down and kowtowed: "Zhu Zhanji, kowtows to thank Immortal Gu!"
Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the nine thousand warhorses on the sky screen, his eyes straight.
"Nine thousand... nine thousand fine warhorses..."
Xu Da swallowed his saliva: "Your Majesty, this Immortal Gu... is really generous."
Lan Yu was envious: "Your Majesty, you say if we could make the list..."
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him: "Shut up! I also want to make the list!"
But he soon laughed and bowed toward the sky screen:
"Immortal Gu, I, Zhu Yuanzhang, thank you! Thank you for rewarding the loyal official of my Great Ming!"
