Chapter 4
"Your Majesty, the Mongol envoy Prince Huodu is meeting you outside!" Li Dongyang stepped forward to report.
""Hmm? The Mongolian envoys? I didn't expect that after I ascended the throne, the first foreign envoy I met was from the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. Envoys from other countries are still on the way. Could it be that my father's death is related to them?" Zhu Houzhao muttered.
Zhu Houzhao did not lower his voice, and many ministers present were shocked.Σ(っД;)っ
"Your Majesty, don't say such things carelessly, it will easily cause disputes between the two countries! And the cause of the late emperor's death cannot be said casually."Li Dongyang hurriedly advised Zhu Houzhao
"It's just my feeling. If it were true, I would have had him arrested long ago.
Besides, when has the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols ever been good?" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said nonchalantly,"Okay, let him in first!" o(TヘTo)Are you sure you're not calling him in to cause trouble?
The civil and military officials felt tired at this moment. His Majesty the Emperor seemed very unreliable!
Huo Du, who was waiting outside the door, had already become a little impatient. When he heard that he was summoned in, he strode into the Fengtian Hall, saluted to Zhu Houzhao and said,"The little king has seen the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
But he stood straight, without even the intention of bowing.
How dare this guy be so rude!
Barbarians are barbarians! Many officials of the Ming Dynasty began to curse in their hearts.
"Well, what are you doing here this time?" Zhu Houzhao looked at Huo Du with a murderous look in his eyes, but he still asked cynically.
"This time, I came to the Ming Kingdom to make the Mongols and the Ming Kingdom become brothers forever." Huodu smiled confidently and said,"I heard that your majesty has a sister, Princess Yunluo, and Genghis Khan asked me to come and ask for marriage for the fourth prince, Tolui."
""Wow!" As Huo Du's words fell, the scene was instantly in an uproar. Even Zhu Wusi clenched his fists.
Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:"Uncle, how did Emperor Taizong (Zhu Di's earliest temple name was Emperor Taizong) warn us and other descendants about marriage?" Upon hearing this, Zhu Wusi immediately saluted and said:"No marriage, no compensation, no cession of land, no tribute. The emperor guards the national gate and the king dies for the country!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Wusi's face also showed a proud look.
This is the pride of being a descendant of the Zhu family!
"Yes! No marriage, no compensation, no cession of territory, no tribute, the emperor guards the national border, and the king dies for the country!" Zhu Houzhao stood up from the dragon chair:"This is the ancestral precept of my Ming Dynasty, but now someone is asking me to send my imperial sister to marry. This is not only a slap in my face, but also a slap in the face of the entire Ming Empire!"
Clang! He drew out the sword held by Li Hanyi, pointed at Huodu and said:"This is intolerable, do you Mongols want to go to war with my Ming Dynasty?
At worst, I will risk the destruction of the Ming Dynasty and drag the Mongols down with me!"
As he said, Zhu Houzhao also walked towards Huodu step by step.
Σ(っД;)っ, the ministers were also shocked when they heard Zhu Houzhao's words. Are they going to start a war because of a disagreement?
""Emperor Ming, are you really going to go to war with the Mongols? This was proposed by the magician!" Huodu was shocked when he saw Zhu Houzhao walking towards him with a sword in hand. He said hurriedly.
He did not take Zhu Houzhao seriously. After all, he was just a sixteen-year-old emperor. Huodu was a master-level expert, but there were several grand masters on the scene. How could he run away?
"So what? If the demon master comes to the Ming Dynasty to cause trouble again, I will also send my uncle to the Mongol Yuan Dynasty to assassinate Temujin. I, the descendants of the Zhu family, have never been afraid of anyone!"Zhu Houzhao said with a sneer.
Zhu Wusi was very satisfied with Zhu Houzhao's attitude at the beginning. No matter how Zhu Houzhao behaved in normal times, this attitude was exactly the style of the old Zhu family!
Zhu Wusi naturally couldn't hold back on this matter!
But you want me to go to the Mongol Yuan Dynasty to assassinate Temujin. Are you afraid that you want me to die? (⊙o⊙)
""Uncle, control this guy for me!" Zhu Houzhao said to Zhu Wusi who was standing at the top.
Zhu Wusi hesitated when he heard this. Zhu Houzhao seemed to want to kill Huodu. Should he persuade Zhu Houzhao to stop?
But should he persuade him at this time?
Finally, Zhu Wusi gritted his teeth, appeared beside Huodu in a flash, and grabbed him before he could react.
This scene caused an uproar in the civil and military circles of the Ming Dynasty. His Majesty the Emperor did this, and Zhu Wusi, as the Emperor's uncle, shouldn't you dissuade His Majesty? Why did you help His Majesty?
Zhang Juzheng and others were calm on their faces, and they didn't seem to intend to stop Zhu Houzhao.
"No, you can't do this, I am the envoy of the Mongols!"Controlled by Zhu Wushi, Huo Du was completely panicked at this time, he shouted hurriedly.
Damn, are you a Mongolian or am I a Mongolian!
"Your Majesty, this cannot be done!" At this moment, Yan Song could no longer hold back and stood up to persuade Zhu Houzhao.
"Your Majesty, when two countries are at war, envoys should not be killed!" Other civil officials also stood up to advise
"You want to persuade me? How about I send your wife to marry?"Zhu Houzhao looked at Yan Song with murderous eyes.
He didn't think Yan Song knew nothing about this before!
