Chapter 104
Catch them all in one fell swoop
Zhu Youjian really couldn't accept Zhu Houzhao's ideas, so he simply kept silent, feeling that the Zhu Houzhao described by later generations was absolutely correct.
Absurd and outrageous!
"Boy, learn more and don't be like your father in the future!"
Lao Zhu said to Zhu Cihong that Zhu Youjian was hopeless, and the future of the Ming Dynasty in Chongzhen world would still have to be presided over by Zhu Cihong.
"Yes, Grandpa Taizu."
Zhu Cixiang was immediately excited when Lao Zhu mentioned this.
The one he admires the most is Lao Zhu. He started with a bowl and ended up with a huge empire. He was much better than his father Zhu Youjian! At least Lao Zhu would not be like Zhu Youjian who humbly asked courtiers for donations.
"What are you going to do next?"
Lao Zhu's eyes returned to Zhu Houzhao.
"What else can I do? Just keep lying down. The play has to go on. Once there is a beginning, there must be an end, otherwise it will not be complete."
"Xiongying, and that boy, please keep an eye on us. If you become emperor in the future, you can only treat civil servants with kindness, but never trust them, otherwise they will crawl on you and shit on you."
"Bastard thing."
Behind the screen, old Zhu Houzhao, who was secretly observing, was about to burst with anger. He rebelled against the emperor and forced the palace to be forced into the palace. Every one of the civil servants should die. No wonder Zhu Houzhao tried his best to plan and kill them all.
Lao Zhu took the opportunity to educate Zhu Xiongying and Zhu Cihong with the naked negative teaching material in front of him.
Faced with the increasing pressure of the civil servant group, Queen Mother Zhang could not make up her mind for a moment!
She definitely didn't want her son's throne to fall into the hands of others, but Zhu Houzhao looked like he was dying now, and it seemed that he wouldn't live long. She had to consider the inheritance of the Ming Dynasty!
She couldn't help but turn her attention to Wang Yangming, wanting to hear the views of this cabinet minister that her son trusted most.
Not to mention him, even Chongzhen's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face. It's true that a noble and romantic civil servant could have such a wild side!
"Queen Mother, the Ming Dynasty is the most important thing!"
Three days later, Liu Jin finally "could not withstand" the pressure and had no choice but to let the ministers enter the palace. Officials from the Civil Service Group, the Xungui Group, and Zhu Houzhao's group all gathered in the palace.
Hypocrisy is synonymous with this group of people. They have been hypocritical for so long that even they themselves can’t tell who they are!
Each and every one of them completely forgot about the etiquette of respect and dignity, showed no respect for Empress Dowager Zhang at all, and their attitude of forcing the emperor to conceive became more and more obvious.
Zhu Houzhao arranged for Lao Zhu, Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Youjian and Zhu Cihong to continue lying on the bed and pretending to be dead.
"."
Under the moral abduction of the civil servant group, Empress Dowager Zhang's heart began to waver. She just proposed to offer the second son of the king as the crown prince. The impact of this matter was too great, and she did not dare to make a decision easily.
The officials of Zhu Houzhao's group were unusually calm. They had all guessed that Zhu Houzhao's poisoning was a set-up. The emperor would not die, but some people with evil intentions would be in trouble!
"Your Majesty is in trouble, and the whole world feels the same sorrow. However, a family cannot be without a master for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day."
Other people in the civil service group also agreed. They have already contacted King Xingxian. As long as they can help King Xingxian's second son to the throne, everything they lost will be returned to them, and even more will be gained.
With their interests at hand, they have almost lost their minds, and even the tone of their words has become forceful, as if not offering the second son of the king as the crown prince would be an enemy to the people of the world, and would bring disaster to the Ming Dynasty.
"this"
Successfully supported Zhu Houcong, the second son of King Xingxian, to take the throne. They will get whatever they want. If they fail, they will all wait to die!
I didn't know this, and I was shocked when I saw it. Zhu Houzhao had woken up at some point and was looking at them with a playful expression.
Wang Yangming just shook his head slightly and didn't say much. No matter what the Empress Dowager Zhang decided, the civil servant group's behavior of almost forcing the palace has been confirmed. No one can survive. It doesn't matter who is appointed as the heir to the throne. It's just...
It’s just a matter of dragging a vassal king into the water!
"This matter is serious, please allow me to think about it again."
Zhu Houzhao had a warm smile on his face, but in the eyes of the civil service group, this smile was simply more terrifying than the smile of death. It made them feel a bone-chilling cold, and their souls were trembling.
Just when the civil servant group was getting louder and louder, a burst of applause suddenly sounded, and the noisy and boiling palace suddenly became quiet, and everyone involuntarily looked towards the place where the sound came from.
After all, Zhu Xiongying was still young. He blinked his eyes and had no idea what Lao Zhu was talking about. Zhu Cixiang was dumbfounded and felt that his world view was shattered. These wolf-like civil servants were completely different from what he had seen and heard.
Same thing.
After some pretentious crying, someone immediately proposed to Queen Mother Zhang about establishing a heir apparent.
"Your Majesty has nothing to say so far. I suggest that the second son of King Xingxian be made the crown prince. If something unexpected happens to Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty will not fall into chaos."
"Continue to make noise, so that I can carefully appreciate the style of my Ming officials."
"Your Majesty"
Empress Dowager Zhang planned to delay for a while to see what happened. After all, Wang Yangming and many officials from Zhu Houzhao's line behaved very strangely!
"For the sake of our great Ming Dynasty, I sincerely ask the Queen Mother to make a quick decision."
The civil servant group and the noble group cried and howled, heartbroken and extremely sad, but there was not a drop of tear in sight, and there was only thunder but no rain.
This is their consistent style. Even if they want to cause trouble, they must first do enough superficial things to show off their loyalty and sorrow, and then they will "see the end of the world."
But the civil servant group, which had been dazzled by profits, was not willing to do anything. They pressed Empress Dowager Zhang and vowed to get results that satisfied them.
"It's so noisy, why don't you keep arguing!"
How ruthlessly they were suppressed by Zhu Houzhao in normal times, how crazy they were when they broke out at this time, like gamblers who lost their eyes and put everything on the line.
They could only succeed but not fail. They never thought about failure. The emperor was poisoned and lying unconscious on the bed. Who could stop them.
"Papa pa pa"
He has never seen any civil servant so fierce and wild!
This has something to do with the environment he lives in. The current civil service group is not comparable to the Donglin Party. Everyone in the Donglin Party is a showman. Even if they are afraid of death, they can find the reason "the water is too cold". He has never seen the civil servants crazy.
The wild side is also normal.
"You are so brave to force me to have a baby. You really think I am dead."
Every time Zhu Houzhao said a word, he was jumping up and down just now, and the impassioned civil servants' heartbeats would speed up in fear, and their hearts would be filled with infinite fear.
But more people are still puzzled. They clearly took control of Chunhua Tower in advance, and deliberately checked the wine glass the emperor drank from to confirm that the emperor drank the poisoned wine they prepared. They concluded that the emperor's poisoning was not false information, but why did they suddenly
never mind?
The emperor in front of him was rosy-cheeked, full of energy, and showed no signs of poisoning at all. So why were there rumors that the emperor was seriously poisoned and would die soon? Why did the emperor deliberately pretend to be dead?
It was too late for them to investigate and find out the truth of the matter. The most urgent priority was to save their lives.
