- Kings seize the throne¡¿The final winner (finale)
Tian Rong was the Chief Supervisor of Ceremonies. He used his power to falsely pass on the imperial edict and summoned all the civil and military officials in Beijing to the Jinluan Palace. Even the senile Wang Duo and Song Yingxing were also invited.
Acting Prime Minister Chen Yonghua saw the civil servants such as Li Zhan, Yin Shixun, Fu Shan, Fu Yun, Ding Qirui, etc., and military ministers such as Li Dingguo, Gao Di, Li Guo, Jin Shenghuan, etc. arriving one after another. He was a little puzzled. The emperor was clearly going to Mount Tai. After being granted the title of Zen, why did you summon so many people? Besides, it couldn't be the emperor's intention. Could it be that the supervisor had something to announce?
Chen Yonghua immediately knew that he was wrong, because when he saw King Chu Ci? who came after him, he also had a confused look on his face. Not to mention King Chu, the other princes who came, including the fourth prince Ci Ye, were also like this. They didn't know what to do at all. .
Tian Rong coughed when he saw that almost everyone had arrived, "The emperor consecrated Zen in Mount Tai, and he was quite impressed. The emperor created an unprecedented foundation and was the first person in history. However, the emperor felt that the burden on his shoulders was getting heavier and harder. To deal with state affairs, here is the abdication edict!" Tian Rong read out the abdication edict written by Emperor Hongguang, and then changed the topic, "The emperor has another edict to pass the throne, and Prince Qi has accepted it."
Zhu Ci stepped out from among the princes and said, "I'm here." Seeing Zhu Ci kneel down, everyone else also knelt down.
"The idea of ??setting up a heir is a big cause for trouble. I have many sons, so I have to work very hard. I am almost in fear day and night, lest I be careless in setting up a heir, and I will betray my ancestors Today, King Ci? of Qi is a versatile man in both civil and military affairs, and has the ability to manage the emperor's business. The great sages from our ancestors are specially passed down to the King of Qi, who admires this."
Tian Rong¡¯s words just finished. Zhu Ciye couldn't help but sneered and stood up from the ground, "Tian Rong, how brave do you have? This imperial edict is obviously fake. My father never had any intention of passing the throne to his third brother. Why did such an imperial edict appear? "
Tian Rong chuckled, "Does the emperor have any intention of passing the throne to the fourth prince? The fourth prince's character is still not well developed! I, Tian Rong, have a few brains who dare to forge an edict."
Zhu Ciye looked at his elder brother. "My father did not intend to pass it on to me, but he did intend to pass it on to the King of Chu. The King of Chu is now the supervisor of the country. This is obvious to everyone in the court. As soon as the father returns from his northern tour, he will Canonize the King of Chu as the crown prince." After saying that, Zhu Ciye looked at all the officials.
Before anyone else could say anything, Zhu Ci, the tenth old man, jumped out first. He had a good relationship with Zhu Ciye. Seeing Tian Rong sneering at Fourth Brother, he cursed loudly, "Fourth Brother, why bother talking to this shady man? First, destroy this rebellious minister and traitor. Come here, take down Tian Rong for me." With that, Zhu Ci? took out a soft sword from his body and stabbed Tian Rong.
Zhu Ci is afraid that Lao Shi will use the knife. Kicked away the soft sword in Zhu Ci's hand, "Tenth brother, how dare you enter this place wearing a sword? Come here, please take the tenth prince aside." Tian Rong has already deployed many people around the main hall. Wen Ting Zhu Ci's words. More than a dozen people ran out and tied up Zhu Ci.
Wang Duo was very surprised by this. He waved to Zhu Ci and took the edict over, "This edict is indeed the emperor's handwriting. Although my eyesight is dim, I still won't admit it"
Wang Duo hasn¡¯t finished half of what he said! Several people who were watching the development of the situation shouted long live. Zhu Ci took the edict back from Wang Duo's fingers and couldn't help crying, "My father has given such a heavy burden to my son, how can I bear it?"
Tian Rong helped Zhu Ci to the dragon chair. "The emperor's post is located in the prince's place. It means that the prince has something worthy of the emperor's appreciation." Tian Rong pressed Zhu Ci? on the dragon chair, and the big stone hanging in his heart seemed to fall to the ground. "The titles of king and minister have been decided, but you still haven't attended the ceremony!"
Zhu Cixuan looked at this farce and was a little unsure. According to his understanding of his father, such a thing would never happen. Who is his father? He has been dormant for so many years and dare not take any action. He is just afraid that his father will exercise his rightful authority. At the pinnacle of power, going upstream like this, you don't even know how you will die. Zhu Cixuan saw his eldest brother's face turned blue, he held Zhu Cixuan's hand and said, "Just wait and see what happens."
Zhu Ci? He was really confused. This was obviously to evade him. Let¡¯s not talk about the authenticity of the edict. The third child had obviously been planning for a long time after playing this way. He didn¡¯t expect that the third child, who had always had a good impression, would do this.
Zhu Cijiong was also surprised, but he was stopped by the gazes of Gao Di, Gao Yuanzhao and others. Zhu Cijiong also knew that now was not the time to reach out, so he had better take a look before talking!
Tian Rong saw that there were only a few people kneeling and worshiping in the main hall, and his face darkened, "Why don't you worship? Do you want to rebel?"
"It's not that we want to rebel, but that you got the edict from somewhere and have evil intentions." Zhu Ci looked at Tian Rong coldly and was about to say what he wanted to say! The sound of snoring suddenly sounded in the main hall, and everyone followed the sound. Wang Duo fell asleep sitting there, and his snoring kept getting louder. It was unprecedented that he could still fall asleep under such circumstances.
Tian Rong looked at Zhu Ci? The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, "Come here, please invite the eighth prince down too!" After Tian Rong finished speaking, no one came up for a long time. Tian Rong was puzzled, "Come here, please invite the eighth prince down. .¡± No one responded even as the volume increased.
At this moment, the sound of rapid running came from outside the hall. In the blink of an eye, a group of people came in from the outside and surrounded everyone in the Jinluan Hall. The leader was Li Chen, the garrison envoy of the capital.
"Mr. Tian, ??the opera has just finished singing so far. I'm afraid no one will listen if it goes on. Princes and lords, please cooperate and raise your hands."
When Li Chen was talking, Tian Rong had already pulled out a short blunderbuss from his clothes. He knew that Li Chen was an unusual person. Once Li Chen stood up, other people in the military would definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble, so even if he Made a wedding dress for Zhu Cijiong.
"Bang!" A loud noise shook people's eardrums and itched. Tian Rong felt the pain in his back. He slowly turned around, "Soit was youwho betrayed me!" Seeing the person behind him, Man, Tian Rong understood everything at once. No wonder Ci? was able to get the edict smoothly. No wonder no one answered his call just now. It turns out that everything happened to him. There was a clang. The short gun in Tian Rong's hand fell to the ground, and the man fell down and died.
Zhu Cixuan looked at the man who shot Tian Rong behind him, feeling terrified and a little proud in his heart. He said that things would not be that simple. If it were true, then his father would not be what he is today. The person who stabbed Tian Rong was Tian Rongyi's right-hand man and confidant, Hou Si.
Hou Si looked at Tian Rong¡¯s dead body. How to describe Tian Rong¡¯s behavior! It's like Guan Gong is showing off a big sword in front of him, and he can't use it at all. If he hadn't been quick to see the opportunity, there would probably be many more of his corpses on the ground.
Hou Si came to Li Chen. After a few words of conversation, they came to see Zhu Youlang, Chen Yonghua and Li Dingguo. These three people are now the mainstay. Although Wang Duo was awakened by the gunfire just now, he looked around and became confused again.
Hou Si took out three imperial edicts. The first one was presented to Chen Yonghua, "Sir, this is the imperial edict given to you by the emperor." Then he gave one to each of Zhu Youlang and Li Dingguo.
Chen Yonghua read the decree of Emperor Hongguang and looked up at Zhu Cixi, "The emperor has a decree. The title of King of Qi will be removed from Zhu Cixi, and General Li Chen will lead him to Mount Tai."
Zhu Ci¡¯s face suddenly turned pale when he saw the situation reversed, and he was escorted down by Li Chen and others expressionlessly.
Li Dingguo coughed and said, "The emperor has decreed that the supervisor of the country be temporarily in charge of the entire army. It is the duty of the minister of the Ministry of War."
Zhu Youlang's imperial edict was very different. He didn't read it out in public. He just walked up to Yin Shixun, bit his ear for a while, and then the two left, acting mysteriously. The farce came to an end.
When Zhu Cixuan returned to the mansion, he knew that his eldest brother's position was already firmly established and unshakable. After being tossed around by Tian Rong, everyone in the court had a clear understanding of the situation. Besides, his eldest brother was now in command of the entire army. This immediately suppressed the second brother's side. No matter how hard Gao Di and others tried, they didn't dare to make any changes. What happened today is a model.
Zhu Cixuan always felt that he was in a panic. He couldn't talk about these concerns with A Ke Yan? and others at home. He packed up and went to the palace to see his mother. When he came to the palace, he got the news for some reason. The two noble concubines were crying there. Woolen cloth!
Liu Rushi looked at the Han sisters who were crying like tears, and felt very sad, "Concubine, don't worry, the emperor also beheaded the fourth son's prince! Isn't the fourth child well now? The emperor beheaded Ci ?'s throne and yet he called Ci? to his side, it means that the emperor has no grudge against Ci? Besides, we don't know what happened, so please don't worry, the imperial concubine, the emperor is with you for everything, eh!"
Han Dan and Han Shuang only found out in the afternoon that their son had put on a show to force him to have a baby, and it turned out to be a disaster. The two sisters were worried and frightened, and they were already confused. After listening to Liu Rushi's words, the two sisters were so confused. It's getting better.
Zhu Cixuan followed with a few words of advice. Zhu Cixuan knew that the imperial concubine Han Shuang was very favored, and his father would definitely not say anything. Although the behavior of the third brother was more hateful than that of the fourth brother, it was all within the control of his father. It was still like educating his children. More, I just don¡¯t know if my father will restore their titles.
Zhu Cixuan helped Bai Jing back to the bedroom and told Bai Jing everything that happened. Bai Jing frowned, "We still don't understand your father! Tian Rong has done a lot of things for your father. According to my guess, Tian Rong was responsible for even the anti-clandestine work against the Tiandihui, and Hou Siqi It's the role of succession, Hou Si's repetition can't mean anything. According to what you said, your father still has a force in his hands, short and powerful. It seems that he has really changed a lot!"
Zhu Cixuan also felt terrified, "Mom, what should I do? My father has decided to pass the throne to my eldest brother. If it takes three to five years, I won't have the chance."It¡¯s over. "
"Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and the sky will be brighter. Don't even think about the day when your father is here. You are not your father's opponent yet. If you want to continue, firstly, wait for your father to die, and secondly, lay down the foundation of your grandson. Finish the fight and you can figure it out yourself! I feel very tired." Bai Jing took a deep look at her son and closed her eyes.
Zhu Cixuan walked out of his mother's bedroom and punched the door. According to what his mother meant, Hou Si did not play a big role. It was not Hou Si who was helping his father with things, so who could it be? Keeping an eye on everyone's every move in the darkness, Zhu Cixuan felt a cold feeling on his back when he thought of this. Yes, he was still a little behind his father.
Emperor Hongguang took his third son on a northern tour, and it took him more than half a year to return to Nanjing. Arriving outside Nanjing, I looked at Ci? beside me. "Let's go to the palace and see your mother! She is frightened by you." I know Cixi's character very well. If Cixi were replaced by Lao Wu, then it would be a different matter. Although it is good to be dormant, too much dormancy can actually be a drawback. Nothing like him at all.
Zhu Ci¡¯s eyes were moist when he came to his father again. He was already heartbroken. Unexpectedly, his father not only did not blame him too much, but also comforted him. This made him regret it to death, "Father, Yi Fei!" Zhu Ci remembered that his father did not study Yi Fei. I don¡¯t know if I will make a decision when I come back this time. After all, they are his closest relatives.
"Don't worry! She is already so old, how can I still let her suffer? Everything will pass." Ci? is more emotional, which is very similar to the boss, but this is both admirable and a shortcoming, especially He is a king, and it is not a good thing to be too emotional.
I sat on a chair in the imperial study room. "Tian!" He opened his mouth and wanted to call Tian Rong, but then he remembered that Tian Rong had been dead for a long time. People's habits are really hard to change!
I looked at Zhu Youlang and Yin Shixun who were called here, "Have the affairs of the two beloved ladies been completed? Are there any difficulties?"
Yin Shixun looked ashamed, "All the people who were regarded as confidants by Tian Rongluo have been eliminated, including Wang Jun's son and some other powerful people. However, the ministers did not dare to neglect, and they were all killed. "
Zhu Youlang presented something like a memorial, "The matter regarding the royal fund has been settled, but is it too much to dedicate 1% of the fiscal revenue every year? This is an endless allocation. Ah!" Although Zhu Youlang didn't understand what the royal fund meant, he knew that it was for the benefit of the royal family and money. Although he also had a share, Zhu Youlang felt that it was too much.
"My dear brother is right. I didn't think it through well. Let's do this. It's only one ten thousandth. I don't know how many years it will take!" This is what I prepared for the third, fourth and other members of the royal family. I hope This Ming Empire can last longer. If this money is used to support tribes close to the royal family in the future, it will be useless.
"Your Majesty, Chen Sijie from the Inspectorate wants to see you." A young eunuch came in to report. I nodded and asked Zhu Youlang and Yin Shixun to go down, "Let him come in!"
"Dad, I want to send you my regards." Chen Sijie saw that Emperor Hongguang had sent all the outsiders away, so he knew that there was no need to avoid taboos at this time, so he stepped forward to pour tea for Emperor Hongguang.
I looked at him. Let alone others, I didn't expect that there was a son outside. If it weren't for Yang Guanshi, this son would have been lost among the people. "Sit down! You have been wronged and cannot recognize your ancestors." , no matter how you say it, it¡¯s a pity.¡± I feel really guilty about the son Chen Ningfang gave me.
Chen Sijie smiled and said, "Dad, I think too much. The child feels that he is very good now. Maybe the child was born to do this. I wonder if Hou Si can still be stable?"
I nodded, "Thanks to you this time. I did a good job. All the time I spent on you was not in vain." Citrix was named by Chen Ningfang. I had forgotten about it when I was in the south. I still remember it at that time. I didn't let Chen Ningfang get pregnant. If Chen Sijie didn't have the token I gave Chen Ningfang and Chen Sijie looked very similar to me, I wouldn't have believed that there would have been an extra son. At first, I was really doubtful, because Chen Ningfang was giving birth. He was already dead at that time, so he was not allowed to enter the house. Instead, he was fostered outside. When he was twenty years old, he was given the core counter-insurgency work. Even the Yinshi Hoondaei and others did not do this. Only Yang Kuang, who took Chen Sijie back, knew something about it. On the one hand, Chen Sijie was serving as an envoy to the Inspectorate, but on the other hand, he was always supervising and collecting useful intelligence. Over the years, the father and son have become more and more understanding of each other. .
Chen Sijie's face turned red, "It's all because of Dad's careful consideration, otherwise the child wouldn't be able to do it. I've already started to make arrangements for King Qin's affairs." Chen Sijie's job is to keep secrets. Although he regrets that he can't recognize his ancestor, he knows that he has to accept it. This is a pity, and besides, other people in his position would be worried about being a father.??It seems that from now on he has to teach his son to start working hard in this regard.
In the thirty-first year of Hongguang's reign, Emperor Hongguang officially appointed Chu King Zhu Ci as the crown prince and handed over all daily work to Zhu Ci, allowing Zhu Ci to gradually assume the highest power.
Hongguang forty-seven years, late winter. The weather today is particularly bad. The sky is overcast and gray, which makes people feel unspeakably depressing.
I have been sick for a month, and even though I am in good health, I feel a little bad. As a person in my seventies, I know that the elderly are most afraid of getting sick in winter, and I am not sure whether I can survive this winter.
"Your Majesty, your concubine is seriously ill." A eunuch came outside to report in a panic. I know Bai Jing has been ill for a long time, and women still live longer than men, but she seems to be ahead of me.
I came to Bai Jing's bedroom and looked at Bai Jing who seemed to be sleeping soundly. I felt very sad in my heart. I touched her hand and felt the warmth, which made me feel a little relieved.
Bai Jing¡¯s hand was held, she opened her eyes and saw that it was Emperor Hongguang, ¡°I want to go outside and wait for you! They won¡¯t let me out.¡±
I asked people to put Bai Jing on the couch and carry her outside, and put her body in my arms. "Do you have anything you want to say to me?" I knew that Bai Jing had only been here for a day or two.
Bai Jing looked at the depressing weather, the cool breeze forced her to lean against Emperor Hongguang, "I want to sing a song for you, I've been thinking about it for a long time."
Sitting back to back on the carpet
Listen to music and talk about your wishes
You want me to be gentler and gentler
I hope you keep me in mind
You said you wanted to give me a romantic dream
Thank you for taking you to heaven
Even if it takes a lifetime to complete
As long as I tell you, you will remember it
The most romantic thing I can think of
It¡¯s about growing old slowly with you
Collect every bit of laughter along the way
Save it for later, sit in a rocking chair and chat slowly

Until we are old and can¡¯t go anywhere
You still treat me as a treasure in your hand

After the sound disappeared for a long time, until tears blurred my eyes, I realized that Bai Jing's body in my arms had become cold and lifeless. I don't know why, it felt like my heart had been taken away, and my throat felt very sweet. , "Wow!" When I spit out a mouthful of blood and fell down, I suddenly saw buds sprouting on the branches in front of me. Spring has arrived.
On December 28, the forty-seventh year of Hongguang, Emperor Hongguang and his concubine Bai Jing died on the same day. He was seventy-two years old. His temple name was Gaozu, and his posthumous title was Emperor Wei Qiang Rui Dewu, referred to as Emperor Gaozu Wu.
