"Zhu Cihong, who had escaped from the camp, should have left with Sun Huiying, who was pregnant at the time, but when Zhu Cihong learned that his sister Princess Taiping was still alive, he decided to go to his uncle's mansion to meet her, and this went became his point of no return."

"With Wu Sangui letting the Manchu Qing Dynasty enter the customs, the war in the north was endless, and there were countless casualties. After the crown prince was killed by the Manchus, Sun Huiying saw through the officials in the capital and the faces of the Manchus. ”

The cowardice of the princes of Nanming also disappointed Sun Huiying. After the news of Li Zicheng's murder came, Sun Huiying's heart knot gradually opened. As the world gradually stabilized, Sun Huiying also left the land of right and wrong in the capital under the protection of the loyal and righteous secret guards, and gradually moved to Hunan to live in peace. Zhu Dachang said slowly.

"Lord Guozhang, we all 'believe' what you say, but it would be better if you could have a royal token to corroborate it?" When Guan Renli heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt Zhu Dachang's words.

In fact, it's no wonder that Guan Renli is so anxious to ask, whether this matter is true or not, it has nothing to do with the Ministry of Rites, so before Zhu Dachang becomes a joke in the world, he must find out the truth of the matter.

This is really the best, but if Zhu Dachang can't come up with any tokens, it can only be Zhu Dachang's empty words. When the time comes, if he loses the face of the King of Han, he, the head of the Ministry of Rites, may not be better.

Zhu Dachang is really hard to convince the world with just such a story.

"This is natural. Master Guan, I have the jade plate and seal of the East Palace of the crown prince Zhu Cihong back then, and I also have the so-called Song King token given to the crown prince Zhu Cihong by Li Chuang. As Zhu Dachang spoke, he took out a wrapped cloth from his arms, and then opened it and handed it over with three things.

Seeing this, Guan Renli bowed to Zhang Rui and Zhu Dachang, and after seeing Zhang Rui's nod, he got up and leaned in, took the token handed over by Zhu Dachang with both hands and carefully examined it.

At this time, many officials below were stretching their necks and looking at Guan Renli, if it weren't for Zhang Rui standing here, they would all be eager to come around and take a look.

"How's it going, Lord Guan, is it true?" Liu Kemin, director of the Nanjing Temporary Household Department, asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, these should be true." Guan Renli replied after carefully handing back the letter in his hand to Zhu Dachang.

After hearing Guan Renli's words, everyone couldn't hold back the excitement in their hearts anymore, and they talked about it one after another.

"If these things are true, then what the old man said can also be believed?"

"Is this still suspicious? You can't be wrong. Since ancient times, it has been said that there is a providence in the underworld, and I think this is also the case. In the past, the Mongol Tatars occupied the Han people's rivers and mountains, and they were driven away by Ming Taizu. Now is it the Manchu Tartars who occupy my Han dynasty or are the descendants of the Ming family driving away..."

"But no, those poor people in the north still said 'The king of Han was born lowly and nameless, and the so-called name is not right, it is not good...'. Now I'm going to see what more shameless remarks they can make..."

"Haha, my staff has to plan well, the King of Han has this name, let me see who among the northern guards dares to bear the infamy of the traitor (1) through the ages, and resist the King of Han to recover the rivers and mountains?"

……

Although everyone discussed a lot, they all chose the question of Zhu Yizhang suddenly. As for why, everyone understands. After all, the officials present are not stupid, and they still understand the reason.

"Are these true?"

"How so? Am I really Zhu Ming's descendant? ”

After Zhu Yizhang heard Guan Renli's judgment, he felt that the sky had fallen. If in the current environment, Zhu Yizhang even wanted to sit on the ground and not get up.

"My ambitions may be hopeless in this life. Zhu Yizhang muttered to himself.

Zhu Yizhang walked slowly in front of Zhu Dachang, and asked as if he had lost his mind: "Dad, why are we descendants of the Ming royal family, and you haven't told me all this time?" ”

"The world is difficult, and Dad doesn't say it for your own good. In the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi, the world was basically decided. After Kangxi worshiped the Ming Tomb, he also pretended to tell the minister that he wanted to visit a descendant of the Ming royal family to manage the Ming Tomb. ”

Zhu Cihuan, the Yongwang who has been absconding for many years, believes that it is true, thinking that the world is stable, and he can live peacefully in this life. As a result, in the forty-ninth year of Kangxi, he was beheaded by the whole family because of his lax tone, and an old man over seventy-five years old died after seeing his two sons beheaded (2). Zhu Dachang said sadly.

"It is precisely because of what happened to the Yongwang lineage that your great-ancestor is more vigilant, and the characters we should have lined up are no longer in line. As for these tokens, if it weren't for the Six Sons Incident, I would have hidden them so that you wouldn't know about them. ”

"As long as you can live well, I will bear all the sins." Zhu Dachang looked at Zhu Yizhang and sighed and said.

"Dad..."Zhu Yizhang knelt down in front of Zhu Dachang.

Indeed, his father had to endure much more than he imagined.

"Alright, chapter one, get up! Now in front of the imperial tomb, we can be regarded as recognizing our ancestors and returning to our ancestors. Worship our ancestors today! If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be alive now. Zhu Dachang helped Zhu Yizhang, who was kneeling on the ground, and said calmly.

"Grandpa, uncle, don't worry! With me, no one can hurt you. At this time, Zhang Rui, who had been silent, said loudly.

"Thank you, Liuzi." Zhu Dachang replied with a smile.

"Okay, everyone, congratulations to my grandfather and uncle on recognizing their ancestors and returning to their ancestors. The worship continues, and the music begins. Zhang Rui shouted.

"Congratulations to the old master, congratulations to the uncle..."

……

"Uncle, don't go back. Come with us! This is where you should stand. Zhang Rui said.

"Thank you, Rokuko. However, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister cannot be abolished. I'll stand behind you! Zhu Yizhang replied gratefully.

"Uncle, you..." Zhang Rui didn't know how to persuade him, and suddenly his words stopped.

"King Han, let him be! That's for the best. It's also for his good..."Zhu Dachang said.

"Grandpa..."Zhang Rui looked at Zhu Dachang's unquestionable eyes, so he had to say helplessly: "Okay then!" ”

"Concerto... Go on..."

Shandong, Qufu

Yansheng Mansion

At noon, it's hot. Under the scorching sun, the green leaves also wilted. The intellectuals who were hiding in the shade of the trees didn't seem to be able to stand the hot breath, and kept screaming loudly.

"It's so hot, it's so hot and it doesn't rain a little, it's really unbearable." At this time, a middle-aged man in a thin underwear was wiping sweat on his bare head with a handkerchief. The handkerchief naturally looped around the root of the braid as it passed through it.

"It's good that there is no hair on my head, otherwise I don't know how hot it is." After wiping the sweat from his head, the man said with a little satisfaction.

"I said you fanned the wind a little harder! Is it just eating white food and not working? Feeling that the wind on his body was a little lighter, he scolded the maid who fanned the wind with a little joy and anger.
