Chapter 47: The Prince's Mansion plots the situation
Entering the secret room, Zhu Youzhen smiled at Wang Zhizheng's self-defeat and said, "Brother Wang, I pretended to be so tired in Yangxin Building that day." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly: "Hou Qi sent you a letter, only told you that the next day the eunuch will listen to the corner next door, and the next day the eunuch suddenly arranged ten knife and axe men in another box, waiting for the prince to say a wrong word, he will rush up and kill you on the spot!" Zhu Youzhen listened, and said a little scared: "There is such a thing! It's so dangerous!" Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: " You still don't know much about Wei Zhongxian, he is a very decisive person, if he thinks that you can be used by him, he will not hesitate to tempt you with the best conditions, once he feels that you can't be used by him, he will quickly make up his mind to get rid of you. Zhu Youzhen sighed and said, "Brother Wang, do you say that Wei Zhongxian is completely relieved of me now?" Wang Zhizheng held the teacup and muttered for a long time, and Zhu Youzhen waited expectantly for Wang Zhizheng to give a positive answer. As a result, Zhu Youzhen was greatly disappointed, and Wang Zhizheng sneered: "If Wei Zhongxian was so easy to fool, I'm afraid he would have turned into a pile of bones long ago." If you think about how many Donglin Party people are eager to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin, Wei Zhongxian walked step by step, frightening step by step, and if he was not careful, he might fall into the abyss of no return. Don't look at him calling for wind and rain now, in fact, he is more insecure than you. Zhu Youzhen nodded: "I agree with this." Wei Zhongxian's prestige and blessing are all because he relies on the emperor's favor, and he must know that the emperor's brother can give him everything, or he can easily take everything back. Wang Zhizheng corrected and said: "Now what he is worried about is really not the emperor, but you, the prince." He's tried you once now, but he's not sure if you can really be of his use. When he bets on you, he will definitely take another insurance, which is in line with Wei Zhongxian's style!" Wang Zhizheng's words made Zhu Youzhen quite uneasy, and he scratched the crown on his head anxiously: "What kind of insurance will Wei Zhongxian meet?" Brother Wang taught me!" Wang Zhizheng looked at this young man who was only seventeen years old, Ruhua's age, it should be a carefree age, a lot of youth can be squandered, more than ten years younger than himself, but every day in such calculations and uneasiness, there are all kinds of dangers coming to him at any time, Wang Zhizheng suddenly felt very sympathetic to this little boy. Wang Zhizheng poured boiling hot tea on Zhu Youzhen, and watched the flames on the stove make the water in the iron kettle gurgle. Wang Zhizheng said faintly: "He bets on you, you must make sure that you will not turn against him after you ascend the throne in the future, of course, first of all, he will show a posture of support for you, so that you will not be prejudiced against him." Zhu Youzhen asked eagerly: "Then what kind of insurance will Wei Zhongxian have?" Wang Zhizheng shook his head: "I can't figure it out now, don't worry now, although the emperor's health is getting worse, but the news from the imperial doctor in the palace should have no problem living for a year and a half." In this year's time, it is Wei Zhongxian's inspection period for you, as long as he judges that you can be used by him, to ensure that his power position will not be shaken in the future, and he can take another insurance to restrain you, the prince, he will definitely choose to support you on the throne. Zhu Youzhen nodded, leaned his head on the back of the chair, and his handsome face was full of cloudy temperament. The two were silent for a while, and Zhu Youzhen sat up straight and asked Wang Zhizheng: "How is the situation on the Donglin Party?" Wang Zhizheng replied: "The Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party have now reached a temporary tacit understanding, and the two sides are basically at peace now. Zhu Youzhen asked incomprehensibly: "Why have the two sides reached a tacit understanding now?" Wang Zhizheng muttered: "The Donglin Party is in a weak position, and the forces in the capital have basically been cleared by Wei Zhongxian. The vitality of the Donglin Party was greatly damaged, and if they continued to fight against Wei Zhongxian, they were afraid that they would be wiped out, and they wanted to preserve their strength. So they chose to temporarily bow their heads to Wei Zhongxian and reconcile. Zhu Youzhen nodded, and asked again: "Then since Wei Zhongxian is in an advantageous position, why do you agree to choose to reconcile with the Donglin Party?" Wang Zhizheng continued to analyze in a deep and powerful voice: "Wei Zhongxian doesn't want to fall out with the Donglin Party at this time. The key reason is that the Donglin Party has an important chess piece in their hands, which makes Wei Zhongxian feel very uneasy. "Chess pieces?!!?" Zhu Youzhen asked eagerly. "Queen, Zhang Yan. Wang Zhizheng blurted out. Empress Zhang is the daughter of the Donglin Party, and she has always supported the Donglin Party, often recommending in front of the emperor that the eunuchs be removed and eliminated. Zhu Youzhen waved his hand: "The imperial sister-in-law is a weak woman, how can she arouse the jealousy of Wei Zhongxian's old thief? No." Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly: "Not now, but when the emperor dies, she will not be a weak woman." Wang Zhizheng said slowly with confidence: "According to the ancestral system of our dynasty, the emperor died, and the new successor monarch must be approved by the former queen, so Empress Zhang will play an important role in the change of power." The Donglin Party has such a chess piece as Empress Zhang in their hands, and the emperor will die in the future, which is equivalent to saying that the Donglin Party has a strong influence on the legitimacy of the new emperor. If the new emperor nominated by Wei Zhongxian is not recognized by the Donglin Party, it will inevitably cause a bloody battle, and when the Donglin Party calls on the local generals and Xinjiang ministers to be the king, he Wei Zhongxian will quickly lose his legitimacy. Wei Zhongxian has administrative power in his hands but no military power, once he can't control it locally, he will immediately die without a place to be buried!" Zhu You listened, his face gloomy as water: "Then, I must speed up the pace of contacting the Donglin Party for support." Wang Zhizheng nodded: "In the current situation, you must not offend both ends, Lord Wang." In particular, it is necessary to get the support of Empress Zhang as soon as possible! Judging from the current situation, Empress Zhang is quite supportive of you. You must express yourself to her at the right time. ”
Zhu Youzhen nodded and said, "Brother Wang, I will definitely hurry up and express my position to the imperial sister-in-law." But it was really inconvenient for me to enter the palace, and when I entered the palace, I could only ask the imperial sister-in-law to say goodbye to him, and I had no chance to talk to him. ”
Wang Zhizheng thought for a while and said, "In this way, I found an opportunity to enter the palace to face the saint, and then found a suitable opportunity to hand over the handwritten letter to the queen." ”
Zhu Youzhen saw that Wang Zhizheng volunteered, and he was still very relieved about Wang Zhizheng's work. So he hurriedly took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the bookcase in the secret room, Wang Zhi was studying ink, and Wang Zhu rolled up his robe sleeves and wrote hard.
wrote a letter without adding dots and handed it to Wang Zhizheng. The letter was not many words, but it expressed support and friendliness to the queen.
Wang Zhizheng got the handwritten book, hid the handwritten book in the cuffs, and took it out of the Xinwang Mansion.
