Moreover, as soon as the weather cooled down, the Feng family army just stationed in Northern Qi and did not continue to attack the city.
The safety of the emperor is related to the country, the country, and the country. It is not only the emperor's business. If the emperor acts so wantonly, they, as ministers, have the responsibility to persuade him.
After returning to Beijing for several days, the emperor did not even show his face, and the prince never appeared in front of others. However, there was nothing fishy about this matter, and the courtiers did not believe it.
The emperor is the Dinghai Shenzhen of the Qin Dynasty. When the emperor returns to Beijing and does not appear in front of others, the ministers will have no time to attend to errands. Due to Qin Jiyan's majesty, the courtiers waited patiently for ten days under the persuasion of Jiao Shoufu and Feng Sijin, but they could not see the emperor for ten days. The courtiers could not wait any longer. In the name of discussing peace with Northern Qi, they jointly requested to see the emperor.
The Empress Dowager repeatedly prevented courtiers from meeting the emperor and ordered heavy troops to guard the palace so that no news could leak out of the palace. If the Empress Dowager hadn't interfered in political affairs, the courtiers would have led troops to break down the palace gate to rescue him.
Lord Jiao and Feng Sijin would not be intimidated by the Forbidden Palace at all. As soon as the Forbidden Army encountered the two of them, they were shouted back, "Bold!"
Of course, this time it didn't work either.
The emperor didn't see anyone for the first three days before returning to the palace, which the courtiers could understand. It is normal for the emperor to be extremely tired from traveling all the way. He has no energy to summon courtiers and deal with political affairs, but what about the fourth and fifth days
The emperor only showed his face when he entered the palace that day, and there was no sound at all after that. After Feng Yuqian escorted the emperor back to Beijing, he left the capital with his troops and horses the next day on the grounds that people could not live without people on the border.
As a result, the courtiers collectively knelt outside the palace gate, begging to see the emperor.
You know, despite all the bad things about their emperor, there is one thing that all the courtiers are speechless about, and that is diligence.
Moreover, when she was a queen, she just didn't want to see a certain concubine, so she had to drive that concubine away. But now, she had driven away all the ministers who asked to see Qin Jiyan, and the situation was completely different.
The law does not punish everyone. So many of them asked to see the Holy One at the same time. Even if the Holy One was not happy, he could only give them a lecture.
The emperor didn't know what happened and didn't say hello to them. They had no choice but to acquiesce to the courtiers' actions.
Regarding the peace negotiation between the Northern Qi Dynasty, some people in the DPRK were in favor of it, while others were against it. Those who agreed were also thinking about Da Qin and wanted to take this opportunity to attack the Imperial Court of Northern Qi, capture the Emperor of Northern Qi alive, and let Northern Qi establish a new king and become an auxiliary state of Da Qin.
Three months is not a long time, nor is it a short time. For Feng Yuqian who is looking for someone, three months is definitely not a long time, but for the Empress Dowager who guards the palace, these three months are definitely not a long time. It's not as long as it is, and it's not as difficult as it is.
The Empress Dowager kept blocking him, and the Emperor never showed up, not even attending the morning court. How could the courtiers not be suspicious
Master Jiao and Feng Sijin originally disagreed, but they repeatedly asked to see the emperor, but the emperor refused. They wanted to inquire about the news privately, but the palace was protected like an iron barrel by the Empress Dowager, so they could not get any information at all.
In just six months, Northern Qi lost eighteen cities in a row. Seeing that Da Qin's troops were about to reach the imperial court of Northern Qi, Northern Qi was frightened and hurriedly sent envoys to Beijing to sue for peace.
All the courtiers could not sit still. No matter how tit-for-tat they usually faced each other in the court, they all united to seek an audience with the Holy Emperor outside the palace.
That’s right, it’s lifted!
Moreover, their Emperor Qiankun is arbitrary and is used to having things in his hands. It is impossible for him to return to Beijing and not show up for several days or deal with political affairs.
The Empress Dowager has been in the harem all her life and does not know how to deal with matters in the court. When she was a queen, she kept rejecting any concubine she didn't want to see. If she didn't see her, the concubine would retreat obediently.
Any official who can stand in the capital is not Linglongxin. The ministers have not been able to see the Holy Emperor for many days, and countless possibilities have been played out in their minds. The biggest possibility is that something happened to the Emperor, and the Queen Mother took the opportunity to seize power!
"Master Jiao, Master Feng, the Empress Dowager has an order not to cause trouble outside the palace. Please leave quickly." The Imperial Army was not a vegetarian either. Although they did not dare to take action forcefully, they also showed a posture of sending people away.
The emperor has been away from the palace for more than half a year and has accumulated a lot of government affairs. This time, the palace ministers are lining up to see Qin Jiyan. The empress dowager can block it for one day, but what about ten days? What about a hundred days
The ministers who objected considered that the weather was cold at this time, Da Qin's soldiers could not adapt to Northern Qi, and they would not gain much advantage if they continued to fight.
At that time, everyone didn't think much about it, just assuming that the emperor had any secrets that he had to carry out. But now think about it, Feng Yuqian was walking in a hurry that day, with a solemn expression on his face. It was not just as simple as performing a secret mission.
Now, Master Jiao asked to see the Holy Emperor. She used the same method without thinking, but she did not expect that the court and the harem are different, and the emperor and the queen are also different.
Master Jiao had no choice but to ask for a face-to-face meeting.
The Empress Dowager directly asked the Imperial Army to carry the ministers back.
"The Empress Dowager! It's the Empress Dowager again! This world belongs to the Emperor. The Emperor has not appeared for ten days, and neither has the Prince. So many of us have not been able to see the Emperor. Everyone inside and outside the palace only hears about the Emperor. What does the Empress Dowager do according to the Empress Dowager's order? "Is she holding the Emperor's hand in order to order the princes?"
The Empress Dowager's method was simple and crude, and it was indeed effective at the time. Both civil servants and military officers were startled by the sudden actions of the imperial army. They were carried home one by one. Only Lord Jiao and Feng Sijin survived. .
The Empress Dowager has gone too far this time, even if they don't doubt it...
Of course, whether the two countries were at war or at peace, even Jiao Shoufu did not dare to make a decision easily. Only the emperor could decide this matter. However, when the document was presented to the emperor, there was no news for a long time.
You know, the emperor still owes them an explanation.
"Could something really happen to the Emperor?" If something hadn't happened, why would he have been back in Beijing for more than ten days without showing up
The Empress Dowager received Lord Jiao's request to meet the Emperor and rejected it once, then again, and dozens of times without giving Lord Jiao a reason. She only said that the Emperor had no time to see him.
Mr. Jiao did not say the last sentence, but the meaning revealed in the words was clear to everyone.
Since he ascended the throne, except for going out, he has never been absent from the morning court or dealt with political affairs.
The emperor originally went to conquer Northern Qi personally, but ended up going to sea instead. Although he won the victory in the end and brought back a lot of property, the emperor had to give these people a message, right
This is not the first time that courtiers have done such a thing. In the past, they often knelt outside the palace gate and begged the Holy One to take back the Holy Order, but they never succeeded.
It's not that we don't want to fight, but we can't fight now. If we really want to continue the siege, we have to wait until the next spring when the weather gets warmer.
