Sure enough, the next day, Zhu Changxi came back with his people.

Gu Zizhong personally cooked a good meal for Brother Zishan.

Since Brother Zishan left for a few days, Gu Zizhong himself has not eaten much, let alone cooked.

Seeing this, Aunt Cui burst into tears of joy with joy: "Lord Shizi, you are the one who can let the young lady cook." ”

Zhu Changxi knew that people were praising him, but he didn't care.

People say they don't care what they get.

This sentence is particularly applicable to Zhu Changxi.

Zhu Changxi just didn't care about Gu Zizhong.

Gu Zizhong was so good to him, he actually ignored it.

Alas......

Gu Zizhong also helped him loosen his clothes at night and cleaned his outer armor.

Zhu Changxi only knew that he was tired, so he fell asleep and didn't even wash his body.

When he got up early in the morning, he found that Gu Zizhong had already gotten up.

He chatted with Gu Zizhong for a while.

Gu Zizhong waved the girls and persuaded them to retreat.

Then she closed the door and discussed the barracks.

Zhu Changxi is actually having a headache about this matter.

He didn't want to hide it, so he said bluntly: "Zizhong, in fact, you also know. I, Zhu Changxi, originally wanted to be an honest courtier, respectful to the emperor, and enjoy the days of my son. But what about ...... The little emperor is so incompetent that he has no power at all. The real power is in the hands of the relatives. I want to do it now, but I can't do it now. The Tatars did not come, and the pirates went home. Daming is a temporary peace. But who knows what will happen later?"

Gu Zizhong stared at Brother Zishan just like Li Nanyu looked at her yesterday.

She stared at Zhu Changxi so much that she had no confidence.

Gu Zizhong said honestly: "Brother Zishan, you are also surnamed Zhu, don't you also have a share of the emperor's position?"

Zhu Changxi was a little panicked in his heart, he was just angry on weekdays, and he just said two angry words.

I really haven't thought about this kind of thing.

His lips trembled, and his eyes flashed with negativity.

Gu Zizhong was laughed at by him: "Brother Zishan, you are so good." I didn't say anything!"

Zhu Changxi began to be a mother-in-law, and her attitude became much kinder: "The key is that this kind of thing is not done like this." I am also a descendant of Taizu, and I can't kill my own brothers. ”

Gu Zi said sharply: "Is the emperor your brother today, or is King Kang Mian your brother? They are precisely because they are related to you, so they will harm you." They're always thinking about how to get you, and you're still thinking about brotherhood. Daming is the Ming of the Zhu family, and the Zhu family cannot be defeated. ”

Zhu Changxi paused and took a sip of wine.

Gu Zizhong said: "I have discussed it with the people in my family. In this way, we have now found the little emperor. Let's obey the emperor of the current court. Except for the emperor, we will not listen to anyone else's words. The same is true of the Empress Dowager!"

Zhu Changxi wiped his mouth and said, "Well, there is no problem with this." Purple weight, just listen to you. ”

Gu Zizhong sneered helplessly, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were revealed again.

She's a lot older.

Gu Zizhong said: "The civil strife in the Ming Dynasty is too serious. Let's follow the little emperor. As long as someone wants to harm the little emperor, we will get rid of that person. In this way, we will conform to the will of heaven and be loyal to the emperor, and we will naturally be loved by the people. And the people of the world will come to our side. ”

Zhu Changxi thought about it and nodded heavily.

One day later, the Empress Dowager issued an edict to criticize Zhu Changxi's unauthorized withdrawal of troops.

Zhu Changxi didn't take Yizhi seriously at all.

I only listen to the emperor, what are you doing with the empress dowager?

In this way, the Empress Dowager completely lost her temper.

The people of the Zhu family in Jinling didn't listen to her anymore.

The relatives are very angry, and the consequences are serious!

The relatives were ready to gather the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei to attack Jinling.

Zhu Changxi is not afraid, it's best to fight, he can show his strength.

The relatives still knew that they had a few catties and taels, so they naturally didn't dare to act rashly.

The little emperor knew that the Zhu family and the Gu family in Jinling were loyal to him, so he was naturally overjoyed.

Although he was still young, he already understood a lot of truths.

He needed the help of the Jinling Zhu family and the Gu family.

Zhu Changxi secretly ran to the capital.

He went to the palace to see the emperor.

The emperor is ready to let the Zhu family in Jinling respond and arrange his own people in the palace.

If the situation forced him to do so, the little emperor had no choice but to send troops to force the palace and imprison the empress dowager.

In any case, the little emperor must take back the power of the imperial court.

The Empress Dowager holds the military power in her hands, and the threat to the little emperor is too great.

Zhu Changxi is very happy, this is his opportunity to show his talents.

Again, Zhu Changxi has long been unaccustomed to those relatives.

So the two of them were ready to do a big job.

But after all, there is no impermeable wall, and the Empress Dowager knows about it.

The relatives are ready to make a move, kill the little emperor, and prepare to set up a new monarch.

The strength of Jinling City is too strong, so the relatives can't move Zhu Changxi.

But the little emperor is in danger.

Zhu Changxi has also prepared for a long time, and several of his brothers are protecting the emperor in the deep palace.

Moreover, the soldiers and horses of the five cities before Wu Yicheng were not in vain.

Several of his men remained loyal to him.

On the surface, the imperial court is controlled by the Empress Dowager, but in fact this is not the case.

The Empress Dowager is also tired and doesn't want to do it.

She wanted to retire and return to her hometown to spend the rest of her life.

Since the last time Gu Zizhong didn't reply to her, and Zhu Changxi didn't listen to her edict, she was already disheartened.

The Empress Dowager is also a suffering person, she assisted the emperor at the beginning, and later the emperor reigned for decades, and she didn't worry less.

But now, as soon as the emperor dies and the little emperor ascends the throne, he wants to kill her.

She's the little emperor's grandmother.

She couldn't bear to kill the little emperor for her status, after all, it was her little grandson.

But the relatives quit and had to kill the emperor.

The Empress Dowager couldn't control the situation anymore, so she had to go to incense every day, hoping that the Bodhisattva would bless her.

But the relatives are too simple, and there is no one around the little emperor on the surface, isn't it too strange?

In fact, secretly, Zhu Changxi's people were all ambushed.

Among the relatives, there was a commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and he led people into the Qianqing Palace.

As a result, none of them went out again.

Wu Yicheng led the Imperial Forest Army to kill all these people and directly broke into Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager has already been captured.

She only hopes that the emperor can leave her a whole corpse.

Gu Zizhong, who was far away in Jinling, knew the news, and couldn't bear it, so he wrote a letter overnight, asking the emperor to let the empress dowager live a way.
