Chapter Seventy-Six: Get the Handle

After Zhu Hao's prompt, Fang Congzhe thought of something in an instant, his eyes widened, and even the folds on his face seemed to be a little smoother at this moment, and he said with some excitement: "Your Highness, you mean ......?"

Zhu Haodang nodded, interrupted Fang Congzhe's words, and said, "That's right! The ban on this palace was issued by this prince! ”

Zhu Hao's words made Fang Congzhe confirm his inner thoughts, he was surprised for a long time and couldn't speak, and said secretly in his heart: "Usually, this inconspicuous fifth prince was able to control the Praetorian Guards at such a critical juncture, it seems that everyone underestimated him before!" This son is really extraordinary! ”

Although Fang Congzhe was shocked in his heart at this moment, he still quickly suppressed the shock in his heart, because Fang Congzhe knew very well that now was a life-and-death moment, and there was no time to waste, he took a deep breath, and there was still a trace of excitement on his face and said: "Please Your Highness, immediately bring Weichen into the palace, Weichen will act according to His Highness's orders, but this waste is long and young, I am afraid that the ministers will ......"

Zhu Hao was able to control the Praetorian Guards and did these things, Fang Congzhe took it for granted, he thought that Zhu Hao was here for the throne, so he said what he thought was the difficulty of doing so.

Zhu Hao said secretly in his heart when he heard this: "What's the matter with these people? Why do you think Lao Tzu wants to be the emperor? Lao Tzu is not stupid, now go and sit in that position, isn't it his own death? I really don't know what these people think! ”

In fact, it is not to blame everyone for blaming Zhu Hao, after all, a prince has just been mourned, and he has done so many things, who is allowed to see it, it is also for the throne, who would have thought that Zhu Hao did this just to save his life and live.

Zhu Hao interrupted halfway through Fang Congzhe's words, and said dissatisfiedly: "Fang Shoufu! When did this prince say that he wanted to abolish the elder and the younger? How can you, as the first and auxiliary minister of the Cabinet, say such a big rebellion? If Fang Shoufu really did this, this would be a repudiation of the ancestors! Where will you put this prince? Where are you? ”

Fang Congzhe looked at Zhu Hao's fierce speech, not like a show, but really angry, very puzzled in his heart, and said tentatively: "Weichen is confused? That His Highness means ......"

Zhu Hao took a deep breath, calmed down the slightly agitated mood just now, and said slowly: "The meaning of this prince is very simple, the state has a prince, and when his father dies, it is naturally the prince who will succeed him!" Fang Shoufu, please rest assured, after the imperial brother succeeds to the throne, the emperor can guarantee that you are safe and sound, and the prince will personally intercede with the imperial brother for you when the time comes! ”

Fang Congzhe listened to Zhu Hao's words, looked at Zhu Hao in disbelief, he really couldn't figure out why Zhu Hao did these things, just for a person who should have inherited the throne reasonably, inherited the throne, couldn't help but have respect for Zhu Hao's character in his heart, and bowed slightly to Zhu Hao and said: "Your Highness is righteous, Weichen admires, Emperor Daxing has a prince like His Royal Highness, it is really a blessing for Sheji!" The world is very lucky! ”

After saying that, Fang Congzhe said eagerly: "In this case, Wei Chen understands what His Highness means, let's hurry up and enter the palace!" So as not to delay time and miss a big event! ”

Zhu Hao nodded first when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "Not yet!" This prince knows that Fang Shoufu and Concubine Zheng have a close relationship, once they bring you into the palace, if you don't do what this prince wants, this prince will have no way to take you! ”

What kind of person is Fang Congzhe, he has been the head of the cabinet for many years, he is old and sophisticated, and when he heard it, he knew that this Zhu Hao wanted his own handle, so that he could control himself after entering the palace. Of course, Fang Congzhe didn't want to leave any handle for Zhu Hao, so he pretended to be stupid and said, "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?" Wechen doesn't understand! Since Weichen has agreed to His Highness, he will naturally do what His Highness says! How could there be other ideas? ”

Zhu Hao listened to Fang Congzhe's words, and scolded secretly in his heart: "This old puppet deliberately pretends to be stupid with Lao Tzu, just a few words, I want to fool Lao Tzu into believing you, Lao Tzu believes you are a ghost!" You bad old man, you're so bad! Thinking like this in his heart, Zhu Hao said: "Fang Shoufu, this empty talk is unfounded, it is difficult for this prince to trust you!" ”

Zhu Hao said this, paused, looked at Fang Congzhe, he didn't mean to answer his words at all, and said secretly in his heart: "Okay, you old horseman, you don't even accept the offer, since you don't accept the offer, Lao Tzu will say it himself, see how you pretend to be dead when the time comes!" Zhu Hao thought so in his heart, and when he continued: "That's it! Fang Shoufu, you now write a confession to this prince, which says that you conspired with Concubine Zheng to poison your father, and then handed over this confession to this prince for safekeeping. ”

Sure enough, after Zhu Hao's words were finished, Fang Congzhe's face changed several times one after another, and then shouted loudly: "No!" This is absolutely unacceptable! ”

Zhu Hao listened to Fang Congzhe's refusal, and immediately said secretly in his heart: "Old horseman, you are now the dead pork on the board, Lao Tzu see how you dodge Lao Tzu's butcher's knife!" ”

Thinking of these in his heart, Zhu Hao immediately turned around and walked in the direction of the palace, and then said as he walked: "Since Fang Shoufu does not agree to the conditions of this prince, then this prince will not bother, anyway, the imperial brother is the crown prince, even if there is no edict, it should be the imperial brother to succeed to the throne, and this prince has nothing to worry about!" As for Fang Shoufu? Stay in the palace and wait for the questioning of the Jinyi guard, the impeachment of the courtiers, and the trial of the new emperor! This prince has returned to the palace, and he will not be accompanied! ”

If Zhu Hao first came, he asked Fang Congzhe to write a confession, and then brought Fang Congzhe into the palace, Fang Congzhe would definitely refuse sternly, and he would not regret it at all, but now Zhu Hao first told Fang Congzhe that he was here to save Fang Congzhe's life, and then let Fang Congzhe know that he controlled the Praetorian Guards, closed the palace, and finally drew a big pie for Fang Congzhe to get out of the predicament, which is equivalent to introducing Fang Congzhe step by step, Zhu Hao dug the pit himself, so that Fang Congzhe can no longer struggle!

In fact, Zhu Hao makes full use of human nature, if a person knows that he is going to die, then he will be indifferent to what you say and do, but if it is a person who is going to die, you tell him that there is hope of survival, even if it is to drink to quench his thirst, he can only live one second longer than the original situation, then he will also fight desperately, this is the survival instinct of people.

Fang Congzhe's mood at the moment is like this, Rao is the head of the dynasty who is in power, and he can't escape the sanctions of humanity, looking at Zhu Hao, who has already walked out for a distance, Fang Congzhe wailed and said: "Your Highness stays, Weichen promises you!" After saying that, he sat down on the ground, as if this sentence had drained all his strength.

When Zhu Hao heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart, he turned around slowly, and then stepped forward to help Fang Congzhe, who was sitting on the ground, cleaned it up for him, and said with the dirt on his body: "That's right, Fang Shoufu is really a smart person, you just made the most correct choice!" You can rest assured that as long as you do what this prince says, this confession of yours will never be seen by anyone else! ”

Zhu Hao said this, but he had another thought in his heart: "Hmph! You old horseman, and the old poisonous woman of Concubine Zheng, where do you run away this time? Lao Tzu won't kill you this time, Lao Tzu will have your surname! ”

Fang Congzhe's face looked like a resentful look on his face, as if he was a big girl who let the bad guys harm him, and he was extremely reluctant to follow Zhu Hao's instructions, and after writing the confession, he carefully handed it to Zhu Hao and said: "Your Highness, this is about the life of Wei Chen, please keep it for your Royal Highness, but don't lose it!" ”

After Zhu Hao took the confession, he looked at it carefully, and then patted Fang Congzhe's shoulder comfortingly and said: "Fang Shoufu, it really deserves to be the first assistant of the dynasty, this confession is all written, it is so brilliant, it really makes this prince admire!" You can rest assured! This prince will definitely cherish this piece of paper as if he cherished his own life! It won't be lost! ”

Listening to Zhu Hao's words, Fang Congzhe, who was still patted on the shoulder by Zhu Hao, was full of embarrassment, and said again and again: "This is very good!" So much better! Your Highness, we can enter the palace now! ”

Zhu Hao nodded when he heard the words and said, "Go back to the palace!" With that, the group left the Fang Mansion, returned to the palace, and entered the palace, and Zhu Hao took Fang Congzhe all the way to the Qianqing Palace.

At this moment, in front of the Qianqing Palace, Concubine Zheng's watchdog, the eunuch Cui Wensheng, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, has been controlled by Zhu Hao in the barracks of the Praetorian Guard, and there is no one to guard the gate of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Hao and Fang Congzhe did not receive any obstruction, and entered the Qianqing Palace!

When Concubine Zheng saw that Fang Congzhe came in with Zhu Hao, she immediately had some confusion and confusion in her eyes, but she quickly covered it up, and said to Zhu Hao in a cold tone: "Fifth prince, this is the Qianqing Palace, and you are not allowed to enter without an edict!" It's not a place for you to play, this concubine is thinking about your youth, and she doesn't care about you in general! Don't go back quickly! ”

Zhu Hao said secretly in his heart when he heard this: "Old poisonous woman, what kind of good person is you pretending to be here?" Don't think that Lao Tzu doesn't know, it's that you killed your father, you don't care about Lao Tzu, but Lao Tzu wants to take care of you today! Tear off your disguise so that everyone can see your femme fatale and see how you can pretend to be a good person! ”

Zhu Hao thought like this, of course not, because of Concubine Zheng's words and withdrew from the Qianqing Palace, he said coldly: "My father has passed away, how can I give an edict?" This prince does not have an edict? Do you have one? You can be a concubine of a previous dynasty in this Qianqing Palace, this prince is the son of his father, why not! Besides, when it comes to the death of the father and the son's guardianship, ordinary people's families are still like this, let alone the royal family? This prince is here to keep a vigil for his father! Why not? ”
