Chapter 108: Appoint the crown prince, appoint the earl, and execute the concubine!

"Clear the side of the king?"

Tianqi was shocked after hearing this.

Zhang Guize thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, they are in a hurry to jump over the wall, and they are worried that the court will find them by using this matter to investigate the gunpowder smuggling case."

In addition to being surprised, Apocalypse understood and sneered, "I don't know who cleansed whom! If they dare to clear the king, I dare to fight in person!"

"Your Majesty really wants to fight in person?"

Zhang Gui asked.

Tianqi nodded: "Now my Ming Dynasty is terrible from the inside out. Not only civil officials, but even the founding nobles have begun to smuggle enemies and sell their country, not to mention the border generals who raised their own enemies in Liaodong. Do you think I will not personally fight and regain the power of the emperor,

What other ways can you establish authority? Can you rely on a few loyal ministers and you, the relative of the foreigner, do it?"

Zhang Gui said: "But only war is a weapon! Your Majesty must think about it."

"I've already thought about it."

"Transfer the Ministry of Rites! Make the eldest son of the emperor the crown prince, and hold a ceremony to choose a date! Make the crown prince, and the uncle Zhang Gui and the eldest son of the emperor the crown prince, Zhang Guoji, the prince of Jin, was appointed as the Marquis of Taikang, and Zhang Gui, the left governor of the Central Army Governor's Office, Zhang Gui, the left governor of the Central Army Governor's Office, was appointed Zhang Gui, the left governor of the Central Army Governor's Office.

Farewell to Suizhou Bo."

Apocalypse suddenly issued an order.

Immediately, Tianqi said to Zhang Gui: "Now Xia Yunyi is implementing a pilot new policy in Suizhou, and I am now appointing you as a Suizhou Bo, so I want to come to the future. Once the pilot new policy in Suizhou is implemented well, I will assist the crown prince in continuing to implement it.

political reform."

"Your Majesty, I am a relative of the foreigner."

Zhang Gui said with a serious expression.

Tianqi smiled bitterly: "If I fail to quell the traitors like the Wu Temple, then the crown prince will need you, the relative of the foreign ministers and nobles to check and balance the civil servants and nobles. Who made me offend them? They will not want my son to ascend the throne unless

, You forced them to let my son ascend the throne."

As he said that, Apocalypse asked, “Do you understand?”

Zhang Gui said: "I understand! I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but I hope Your Majesty will come back alive! At this point in the Ming Dynasty, what I need is a wise and decisive emperor, not a young master."

"I try my best."

Apocalypse replied.

After receiving the order, the Ministry of Rites really began to prepare for the ceremony where the eldest son of the emperor was granted the title of crown prince.

This is good news for many ministers who really care about the safety of the Ming Dynasty.

They have always regarded the crown prince as the foundation of the country, and believed that if the crown prince is determined, the country will be safe and the world will be safe.

You should know that in the late Wanli period, the matter of being appointed as the crown prince for the eldest son was caused by a lot of controversy, and the court had been arguing for decades.

However, because the current crown prince’s uncle is Zhang Gui, who regards scholars and officials as traitors.

Therefore, there are still many ministers who are not happy to talk about this matter.

But they cannot explicitly oppose it, after all, the legitimate position is established as the chief, and there is no objection to the point.

The eldest son of the emperor is now six years old, so he can participate in the enfeoffment hall.

After the Tianqi issued an order to ask the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the ceremony to signify the eldest son of the emperor as the crown prince, he paid homage to the Taimiao according to Zhang Gui's proposal and reported to his ancestors of the Zhu family that Concubine Liu wanted to break the foundation of the country and engage in the government affairs.

crime.

Immediately, Tianqi issued an order to hang Concubine Liu.

He did not choose to compromise because of the threat of a 100,000 army to clear the monarch if the general of Ji Liao Governor Chen Hongfan.

Because Tianqi knew very well that the Ming Dynasty was about to fall, and there was no point in compromising. It was nothing more than that one of the kings of the country was destroyed.

Before he was in the market, Concubine Liu looked at Tianqi and said, "Your Majesty, if it weren't for his uncle Zhang, you wouldn't have won this time."

Tianqi smiled and said, "So what if I lose? Do you think I have never thought about these consequences? The reason why I still do this is because I would rather let them scold and slander them than when I was the emperor.

, Let them live a better life! I am not the emperor's grandfather, I will not hide in the deep palace. I can only sulk when scolded by one or two censors, and I am not the father. I have to spit on my face when scolded. I

I would rather die than make me feel uncomfortable. Life is better. I am such a man!"

Concubine Liu smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, some people are afraid of threats with one or two words, and some people are not afraid of holding a knife on their necks. What else can old man say? Old man only hates that he shouldn't have chosen a concubine for you back then.

Empress Zhang selected the top 50 people, so that I would not have any uncle Zhang in the Ming Dynasty. You must have been extinct now."

"Old guy, hurry up and get on the road."

Zhu Youxiao said something badly.

"I'm following the order!"

Bang!

Not long after, the stool fell to the ground and Concubine Liu hanged herself.

Shortly after Concubine Liu hanged herself, the ceremony to establish the crown prince began.

The eldest son of the emperor officially became the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.

During this period, the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Army were already preparing for the personal expedition of the Apocalypse.

The day before Tianqi's personal expedition, Zhang Gui was reported to the Xiyuan Bi.

Tianqi asked Zhang Gui and said, "You are the admiral of the Beijing Camp. How do you plan to guard the capital? After I leave?"

"I ask Your Majesty to let me guard only one gate of the palace city and the inner and outer cities!"

Zhang Gui replied.

After hearing this, Tianqi asked Zhang Gui: "Why?"

"I want to fish!"

Zhang Gui replied.

"What's the meaning?"

Apocalypse asked.

Zhang Gui said: "I believe that Your Majesty will win! But some people will not believe it, or they are unwilling to believe it."

As he said that, Zhang Gui informed Tianqi in detail his thoughts.

After hearing this, Tianqi smiled slightly and said, "This is good, it will help you gather trustworthy soldiers. If there is any accident, it will be easier to lead the crown prince out of the capital."

The next day, Tianqi brought his military student corps and the newly-organized guard guard battalion with the first military student as the backbone of the military student. The second battalion, with a total of more than 20,000 horse and infantry troops, left the capital and headed to Ji.

Coming from the state.

In order to better manage the newly formed soldiers and horses belonging to the emperor, Zhang Gui called these troops composed of military officers as backbone members of the Military Academy as the backbone, and they all took the sequence of the First Battalion and the Second Battalion.

It is called, but the first battalion with the highest proportion of veterans and the highest loyalty is not called the First Battalion. In order to show glory, it is specially called the Imperial Guard Battalion.

On the morning of Tianqi's departure from the capital, Zhang Gui received the will to let him control the defense of the palace city and the inner and outer gates. The remaining inner and outer gates were handed over to other nobles and civil servants of the Ministry of War to guard the capital camp and the capital camp.

Other soldiers.

In addition to Mangui's Shenshu Camp, he has now received the order to continue to defend the inner court, and is only under Zhang Gui's control, the Sun Yingyuan tribe of Xishan Camp has replaced Zhou Yuji's forward camp to meet the capital.

Inside and Outer City.

This time, Sun Yingyuan also received the decree, which was only controlled by Zhang Gui, and was responsible for the decree of a city gate inside and outside.

Sun Yingyuan didn't know what the purpose of Tianqi's arrangement was, but he thought it was because the Beijing camp was now expanded, so that more troops could be concentrated in every part of the city gate to defend.

When Tianqi led his own Guards and the Military Preparation School enlisted team to Jizhou, Wang Zhichen also learned that Tianqi was about to be in charge of him.

After Wang Zhichen learned about this, he called Chen Hongfan over: "Tell me honestly how many soldiers we have."

Chen Hongfan replied: "There is always 80,000."

"That's good, 80,000 to 20,000, the advantage lies in me!"

The king nodded and said, "The tyrant has personally led his troops to attack us, and he is unwilling to give in. This hall decided to lead his troops to clear the king's side immediately."

"yes!"

A few days later, the minister of the Governor of Ji Liao, Wang, and the general of Jizhou, Chen Hongfan, led his troops and horses to come out in full bloom.

Bang!

But as soon as he left the city, Wang Zhichen slapped Chen Hongfan, pointed at the sparse soldiers in front of him, and asked Chen Hongfan:

"There are 80,000 soldiers here?"

"Don't you know the numbers in this hall?!"

"Tell me the truth, how much money did you eat?"
Chapter completed!
