Chapter 1074: Candidates for Envoys
The courtiers sincerely suggested under the pressure of Emperor Longqing.
This argument is supported by many people.
Several princes also tried their best to show that they were worried about their father and the emperor and worried about national affairs.
After all, Emperor Longqing brought all the princes he could bring, and if the barbarians broke through the palace, they would not be able to get well, and they would only stay in the capital for the ignorant little prince.
"The safety of my father is more important than everything, and I implore my father to think twice."
The three princes took the lead in agreeing with the minister's opinion.
Now that he is most likely to become the crown prince, he is the last thing he wants to be captured by the barbarians.
Moreover, the ministers who proposed to send envoys to negotiate with the barbarians secretly expressed their support for him, the eldest son of the emperor.
Naturally, the third prince would not see the ministers who supported him unlucky.
"I beg your majesty to think twice."
The courtiers knelt down one after another, and the three princes had a sense of satisfaction.
If he sat on the dragon chair, would he feel more satisfied?
The rights are fantastic.
"Send an emissary to the peace talks? Who to send? You? My third prince? ”
"Erchen thinks that Yongle Houji is a natural person and can take on this heavy responsibility!"
The Nine Emperor Princes were the first to speak, and Gu Siye was stunned on the spot, he was still thinking about how to bring back the fur he got in the paddock.
Make a scarf for the eldest brother, a cloak for the little nephew who is about to be born, and a beautiful forehead wipe for the mother.
Of course, Gu Siye still wants to send these things, the eldest brother and his mother must not be stingy, is he thinking about bringing the inkstone of the eldest brother's baby for many years?
Mother must have been glad to give him the key to the storeroom and let him find the ornament he liked.
Gu Siye thinks very well, and generally when discussing the government and politics, Gu Siye is silent.
No one expected him to have constructive good opinions.
He is also afraid that he will be embarrassed and conspicuous if he says something wrong.
It's better to keep silent, so that the courtiers can't see his depth clearly.
"Minister...... What messenger to do? ”
"The son knows that his father is afraid that Yongle Hou is in danger, and his father can send someone to protect Yongle Hou."
The Nine Emperor Princes hated Gu Siye for taking money and not doing things.
Among the princes, the Nine Emperors gave Gu Siye the most silver, and several large boxes were prepared for the gifts, and the beauties were also ready.
Except for the two beauties who were returned by Gu Siye, Gu Siye accepted the rest of the silver and belongings.
But Gu Siye had never said half a good word about the Nine Emperors in front of Emperor Longqing.
On the contrary, it undermined the praise of the Nine Emperors by the courtiers who supported the Nine Emperors several times.
Gu Siye only sighed to Emperor Longqing, the Nine Emperors and the Eighth Princes are like each other.
With just one sentence, all the efforts of the Nine Emperor Princes were in vain, and he was getting farther and farther away from the crown prince he dreamed of.
The Nine Emperors broke the jar and fell, and he could get a vassal king at worst.
It is better to take this opportunity to send Gu Zhan, who is not a good thing for himself, to the barbarians.
"Yongle Hou was born with blessings, and the person he likes even Xiangrui will definitely be able to resolve the dilemma faced by his father!"
The Nine Emperors were completely considerate of Emperor Longqing, "For others, no matter how high the ability and knowledge are, people are at a loss, but Yongle Hou can easily solve it in laughter and scolding, in Meixian, in Jiangnan, and in the rebel King Qi...... Yongle Hou has never disappointed his father. ”
"Today, my father is in danger again, and the Marquis of Yongle, who has the name of a loyal minister, is also willing to swear allegiance to his father."
The Nine Emperor Princes bowed deeply to Gu Siye, "The safety of my father and the face of the imperial court have been entrusted to the Marquis of Yongle." ”
Gu Siye: "......"
Emperor Longqing's eyes were dark, "I can't do without Gu Zhan!" In the past, you all said that I spoiled a wreck who had nothing to do, but now in the face of a predicament, you actually want to push Gu Zhan out? ”
"Father's discernment, seeing the strengths of Yongle Hou, the sons and daughters admire, Yongle Hou is the most suitable candidate, after all, all the barbarian tribes know that he is your favorite minister, and they will also believe Gu Zhan's words when negotiating, if you casually appoint a minister who has no weight and is not favored as an envoy, the barbarian designation is suspicious, which is not conducive to the father's return to Beijing as soon as possible."
The Nine Emperor Princes are not the only ones who are annoyed that Gu Siye collects money and does not do things.
The courtiers and the princes united and united to push Gu Siye to the position of envoy.
It is rare for them to be so united in their opinions, regardless of faction.
Emperor Longqing said in his heart, how many people did Gu Zhan offend?
Zhao Lian pursed his lips and knelt down and kowtowed, "If Your Majesty makes the Marquis of Yongle an envoy, the minister is willing to send an envoy with him!" ”
Zhao Lian also thought that it was a good idea to send an envoy to delay the barbarians at this time and give Emperor Longqing time to return to Beijing.
He is willing to accompany Gu Siye to be loyal to the country and His Majesty, and he will die.
"Old man Zhao! I don't appreciate you at all! ”
Gu Siye hated the Nine Emperors and others, and he also resented Zhao Lian.
"The minister doesn't know anything, wouldn't it be a shame for His Majesty to be a messenger?"
"Yongle Hou's name is enough!"
The Nine Emperors took the opportunity to say: "Lord Zhao is willing to be a deputy envoy, and Your Majesty can also appoint a few more people to assist the Marquis of Yongle." ”
Emperor Longqing was silent.
Gu Siye looked at him with blank eyes, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "If Your Majesty's courtiers are greedy for life and afraid of death, and dare not look at the barbarian rats, the ministers are willing to be envoys and share worries for Your Majesty!" ”
The courtiers automatically ignored the title of the rat generation, and praised Gu Siye's high righteousness.
"Lord Lu Hou is famous, if he goes to protect Yongle Hou......"
Before the courtier's words were finished, Gu Siye stepped forward and gave him a mouthful.
The weight of the power staggered the man.
"I see that you are not bad, so you can follow the master to the envoy."
Gu Siye's eyes swept over the courtiers and princes, but no one dared to look at him, and the courtiers lowered their heads one after another, for fear that they would be chosen by Gu Siye!
At this time, Gu Siye was a madman in their eyes, unreasonable, and he couldn't afford to offend.
"Rats, a bunch of rats!"
Gu Siye was arrogant, his chest was raised very high, and his chin was slightly raised, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to be loyal to you, but the minister is unwilling to be a widow." ”
He was determined to die to be an envoy, how could he involve Lu Zheng?
"The talent of the minister is only worthy of being an envoy and delaying time, but Marquis Lu, he is His Majesty to fulfill the last wish of Taizu, surpass the first emperor, and compare with the blade of Taizu. The minister couldn't watch Lu Houye, who was born a famous general, being ruined by a group of rat villains! ”
Emperor Longqing's eyes flickered, "Gu Zhan, I ......"
"Your Majesty, the capital is in urgent charge."
"Send it up."
Emperor Longqing was a little anxious, could it be that something happened in the capital?
The person who delivered the urgent report walked in and gave the urgent report to Emperor Longqing,
Gu Siye was surprised and asked, "Gu Jue?" How are you? How did you come to the palace? ”
Lu Zheng, who had been silent, suddenly hooked the corners of his mouth.
Gu Jin did it beautifully!
Is there anyone more suitable than Gu Jue to protect Gu Siye's envoy?
