Chapter 1 Entering Beijing to become the emperor
In April, the spring breeze warms, the yellow sand outside the plug recedes, the poplar catkins, and the peach and plum are fragrant.
In the bright spring light, a huge team came from south to north and went straight to the capital.
The horses are galloping, the people are like dragons, and the momentum is soaring.
Everywhere I passed, the people on the side of the road were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and they didn't dare to look up for a long time!
In the middle of the procession, a special carriage is particularly eye-catching. The height alone is one zhang two feet two inches strange, the width is eight feet nine inches, and the rest of the vehicles in front of this carriage are all younger brothers.
Officials who are familiar with the rules and regulations of the imperial court know that this is the second car in the world, second only to the emperor's chariot, and it can only be ridden by the crown prince.
Not surprisingly, in the carriage, a young man wearing a winged crown, wearing a red regular robe, and embroidered with a gold coiled dragon on his shoulders was sitting with his eyes down.
He was thin and thin, representing the majesty and dignity of the royal attire, but instead of setting off the majesty, he looked weak and helpless, and there was a touch of funny, which made people wonder if he could hold up.
Opposite the distinguished young man, there was also a young man slightly younger than him, this little guy was slightly pale, his expression was tired and sluggish, as if he hadn't slept well for a long time, his eyes were red, and he was listless.
As the road became wider and wider, and the team got closer and closer to the capital, at this time, an elderly high-ranking official rode his horse and arrived next to the car.
Through the car curtain, I heard him say aloud: "Your Highness, you are about to enter Beijing, Rong Laochen said a few things, Your Highness must remember clearly." ”
There was no sound in the car, which seemed to be acquiescence.
The old man's voice was loud and said: "Please enter the city with the gift of the crown prince, and the Ministry of Rites will choose an auspicious day and hold an enthronement ceremony." ”
"The cabinet has drawn up three era names, of which the word Shaozhi is the most suitable, if His Royal Highness agrees, it can be written into the enthronement edict, and it will be officially changed next year."
"This third point is that after His Royal Highness ascends the throne, he must clean up the source, promote the good and eliminate the disadvantages, the redundant officials of the previous dynasty must be abolished, and the soldiers of the border army must be sent back to the station. Those who have been innocently harmed must be rehabilitated and reinstated. ”
After the old man finished speaking, there was a long silence in the middle of the car.
After a long time, I heard a young man's voice, and he said quietly: "Mao Shangshu is the best talent, Geng Geng is loyal, you have all arranged it, naturally you will do it, do you still need to ask me?" ”
It's angry.
The old man was not in a hurry, he had already prepared, and then said: "Your Highness, the old minister Mao Cheng has been in the Ministry of Rites for many years, and everything is done in accordance with the rules of the ancestors, and he does not dare to act arbitrarily. If His Royal Highness is tired, he can temporarily rest in the suburbs, wait for the old minister to explain clearly to His Highness, and then enter Beijing, which is not bad for a day and a half. ”
Anyone could tell that the old man did not intend to make any changes, and his explanation was just to make the young man honest and obedient. This tone is no different from many parents, high and domineering!
The young man's face gradually turned pale, his lips trembled, and his whole body trembled......
Another teenager in the carriage suddenly widened his eyes, and his tiredness swept away!
Mao Cheng!
Welcome the new monarch to the throne!
These two key points are connected together, and those who are familiar with history must have come to a conclusion. This group of people went to Anlu to welcome Zhu Houxi into Beijing and inherit the throne left by his cousin Zhu Houzhao.
That's right, it's the famous son of Zhengde.
After sixteen years of nightmares left to all civil officials, he went without taking a cloud with him and leaving not a son...... The throne fell to his cousin, Zhu Houxi, the son of King Xing, who had not yet reached the age of fifteen.
There are all kinds of things to pick up, but to be able to pick up the emperor's throne, this luck is also extremely rare in the past five thousand years, except for those troubled times, in addition to the unlucky people who were forced to wear yellow robes, Zhu Houxi is also unique.
can follow this lucky man and serve as his cronies.
As a traverser, Wang Yue is still very satisfied.
Other traversers, some people went to the barbarian cottage, and they couldn't even find a teaching gentleman, although some people went to the house of the eunuch, but under the Jingcha, the family was almost ruined, like him, he hugged the thigh of the new monarch when he appeared, and suddenly became a henchman among the henchmen, I don't know how many years I have to struggle less!
It almost went straight to the point of lying down to win, but as time went on, his feelings became more and more wrong.
The actions of these ministers are not at all like welcoming the most honorable person in the world to inherit the most golden profession. Instead, it is like inviting the idol home and offering it to you.
Although both are glittering, the difference between them is known to fools.
That's right, Wang Yue obviously felt that the ministers just wanted to turn Zhu Houxi into a marionette, an emotionless wood carving clay sculpture, at the mercy of him.
Along the way, two Qincha, one is Liang Chu, a university scholar, and the other is Mao Cheng, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, they give Zhu Houxi a make-up course every day, and they keep instilling in it.
These two are both champions, and they talk about it constantly, their mouths are like a river, and they talk like a lotus.
It boils down to three points: Zhengde is so bad that people are terrible, filial piety and Hongzhi Shengtianzi must be reused to listen to the opinions of Yang Ge Lao and other virtuous ministers.
Never tired of it, over and over again.
Poor Zhu Houxi still has to travel during the day, and he is sleepy at night, his eyelids are constantly drooping, he is full of breath, and he has to bear the destruction of his ears. Wang Yue only thought of two words, one was "brainwashing" and the other was "boiling eagle", no matter what it was, he didn't treat Zhu Houxi as a human being anyway.
Even Zhu Houxi has this treatment, let alone other people.
Including our attendant Wang Yue, he even ate unclean things and had crazy diarrhea. Coupled with the fact that he was not accustomed to the water and soil, he hurried quickly, and he was exhausted, Wang Yue fell directly into a coma and fell off the horse.
And at this time, Wang Yue of later generations took advantage of the situation and took over the body.
The young man has the same name as him, both are called Wang Yue, but he also has a nickname, called Fugui.
That's right, it's Wang Fugui!
It's all miserable like this, and it's still bullshit and rich?
Wang Yue is almost dead.
What made him even more desperate was that those Qincha did not save people immediately, but planned to send Wang Yue back to Anlu, with his current body, if he hurried again, what was the difference between it and looking for death!
These people are really good at careless human life!
And at this moment, a young man stood up, wearing a winged crown and a woven golden dragon robe, and roared loudly with several Qincha.
Let them immediately call the imperial doctor to save people, and take Wang Yue to the car, the two of them eat and live together, if there is the slightest mistake in Fugui, let them pay for their lives!
Zhu Houxi told Mao Cheng and the others that Wang Yue couldn't go, and he had to ride in the car with him, eating and drinking all the same, and called the imperial doctor who had prepared for him, and if he couldn't cure Wang Shixue, let them read Wang Shishu to pay for his life!
At that time, Wang Yue didn't know who the other party was, but he was confused, hazy, and got into the car.
Sitting in the same carriage, Wang Yue heard Zhu Houxi's complaints...... He did not have the slightest joy of inheriting the throne, everything was so sudden.
He originally offered Wang Shouxiao for his father, and then suddenly a large number of people came, including the elders, scholars, and the princes and eunuchs...... They told Zhu Houxi that you were going to enter Beijing to become the emperor.
Then Zhu Houxi was taken away from his hometown in a daze.
Nearly fifteen years after I was born, Zhu Houxi left his hometown for the first time and faced my safe and unknown world for the first time......
He was full of grievances and confusion, and could only confide in wealth.
In the midst of Zhu Houxi's incessant telling, Wang Yue finally figured out the situation...... This handsome young man with phoenix eyes is actually the famous Emperor Jiajing.
There is no immortal wind bone, no profound imperial heart technique, and not even a confidant!
It's so lonely, going north to the capital.
Wang Yue suddenly felt that he was really similar to Zhu Houxi!
They were all grabbed by the back of the neck by fate, and then thrown into the whirlpool of history.
It's just that he has to face a strange era, and Zhu Houxi has to face the wolf-like ministers of the capital...... It's really hard to say who is more unlucky.
After all, if something happened to him, Zhu Houxi could still stand up for him. And what about Zhu Houxi's turn?
Who can help him?
Mao Cheng put forward three points, obviously everything was arranged, but could Zhu Houxi agree?
I didn't see it, the green tendons in the young man's temples were protruding, he bit his lip fiercely, and there was no blood on his face!
Wang Yue suddenly felt that his chest was very stuffy, he endured it all the way, and at this moment, he couldn't help it.
"Mao Shangshu asked His Royal Highness to enter the city as a prince, but he didn't know who His Highness was the crown prince?"
There were only two people in the carriage, except for Zhu Houxi, who was Wang Yue, the palace attendant.
This vertical man is so bold that he dares to question his own official?
Mao Cheng wanted to have a seizure, but when he thought of Zhu Houxi, he still couldn't help it, after all, it was time for a showdown.
"Naturally, it's Emperor Xiaozong."
In an instant, Zhu Houxi was furious, his eyes widened, and his anger erupted, this is to change his father!
He was so angry that he didn't know what to say, but Wang Yue said quietly: "It's been sixteen years since Xiaozong died, and His Highness is less than fifteen this year!" ”
Zhu Youzhu didn't know that there was such a cheap nephew, and Zhu Houxi had never seen his uncle...... stunned to make two people into a father and son, the civil officials are really full of imagination!
