Chapter 1304: Whose Tyrant Elephant?

Wu Sangui is here!

Lying comfortably in a first-class Nanmu coffin, he swaggered down from a sailboat covered with various strips of white cloth...... It's for people to carry down. His two sons came with him, holding on to the coffin and weeping. The band on the dock also played a tune for white affairs, which made people cry sadly when they listened to it. Yan Shenggong Kong Yin was leading a group of Confucian scholars, monks, and Taoist priests, and had already arrived at the dock. Monks chant scriptures, Taoist priests chant mantras, Confucian scholars recited sacrificial texts loudly, and paper money was scattered all over the sky...... It's really grand!

The Wu family's family also arrived at the dock, all of them were filial piety, and when the coffin came down from the boat, everyone cried bitterly.

The high-ranking civil and military officials in Wuhan Prefecture all came, and they all cried on the dock, some of them really cried, but most of them were fake crying. For example, Zheng Zhilong is pretending to cry, although Emperor Zhu gave Wu Sangui great mourning during this time, but this mourning also shows from another angle that the Beiren Party suffered heavy losses because of Wu Sangui's death, so the emperor has to work hard to support it!

The situation is still very favorable to the old Zheng family!

And the only thing that made Lao Zheng a little worried was that Wu Sangui forced his daughter Ake to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the testament...... In this case, the future Empress of the Ming Dynasty will still be a member of the Wu family!

According to Emperor Zhu's current rules, the status and power of the empress will be greatly improved! And the current crown prince does not seem to be as strong as Emperor Zhu, and Wu Ake's power will go up in the future.

"Your Majesty is here, Your Majesty is here!" Zheng Sen's voice sounded in the old man's ears, and Lao Zheng hurriedly turned his head to look, and found that Emperor Zhu, who was wearing a dragon robe, was pestering a tall woman with a plain body and coming out of the carriage.

"Who is this woman? Could it be the Queen? Zheng Zhilong was old, his eyes were not very good, and he didn't see it clearly, so he asked casually.

"How can it be the Queen?" Zheng Sen said, "How can the queen wear such a heavy filial piety for the king of Pingxi? ”

yes! The queen is the mother of the country, how can the mother of the country wear heavy filial piety for Wu Sangui? Her father Wu Xiang didn't have such a heavy filial piety when he was mourning, let alone her brother Wu Sangui?

"Then she's ......"

"He's Wu Ake!" It was Zheng Jiangong who spoke, and his wife was Princess Kunxing, so he had the opportunity to follow and secretly meet the competitors of the Zheng family's girls, including Wu Ake, of course.

"What? She is Wu Ake......" Old Man Zheng didn't understand, "Why did Your Majesty support her?" This man and woman can't kiss each other! ”

"What else do you need to say?" Zheng Sen said in a low voice, "It must be the Wu family who dedicated her to Your Majesty......"

"This ...... Miscalculated! Zheng Zhilong's face darkened suddenly, and he thought about giving his granddaughter to Emperor Zhu's sons, but he forgot that it was Zhu Cihong who was now the emperor!

His daughter Zheng Chagu is the imperial concubine and the second in the harem, if Empress Wu is gone, she should go up to be the queen...... But now Wu Sangui's daughter is going to enter the palace!

Wu Sangui posthumously crowned the king of Pingxi, Wu Ake is the county lord, this identity is already more noble than Zheng Chagu, plus she is young and beautiful, even if she can't be the imperial concubine, she is also the number one concubine, once Wu Sanmei is gone, she is the queen, and she will be the queen mother in the future, and her daughter Zheng Chagu will have no chance to straighten it out!

As soon as he thought of this, Zheng Zhilong was really sad, his nose was sore, and tears flowed down!

Zhu Cihong also saw Zheng Zhilong, and saw him crying like this, not like a fake cry, and sighed softly - he misunderstood Lao Zheng, and he and Wu Sangui are still very good, otherwise how could they cry like this? It seems that the party struggle of the Ming Dynasty is still a dispute between gentlemen, and there will be no party and different parties, and the personal relationship between ministers is still very harmonious, which should be a good phenomenon only in the rule of the holy monarch!

Thinking of this, he nodded at Zheng Zhilong from afar, and then walked towards the Nanmu coffin where Wu Sangui was lying with the delicate and glutinous A Ke......

......

Wu Sangui is gone again!

Still lying in the good Nanmu coffin, he left intact, and he didn't come out in Wuhan for a few days...... When leaving, they also took Wu Ake, Chen Yuanyuan, and the people of Ning Rong's second mansion with them - they sent Wu Sangui to Wolong Mountain to settle down. Under the supervision of Zheng Sen, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Wu Sangui's tomb was almost completed.

Of course, after burying Wu Sangui in the soil, Wu Ake still has to go back to Jinling Women's University to go to school! Zhu Cihong made an order to let her interview for admission.

Although Wu Ake will not marry Zhu Cihong's sons, she still has a certain possibility of becoming the queen mother and even serving as a prisoner, so Zhu Cihong still has to train her well.

In addition, he also needs someone to act as the eyes and ears of the female university - keep an eye on those female students, let them have a snack, and not just think about getting married and having children.

As soon as Wu Sangui left on the front foot, the back foot of Wuchang City became lively, and the lights were everywhere, which was a good celebration. It's still the Hanyangmen Wharf, and the black and white archways erected to welcome Wu Sangui have all been replaced with festive colors.

On the first day of the first month of May, the Hanyangmen Wharf and the nearby Hanyangmenwai Street, once again appeared vigilant defense and new troops, the wide streets have been swept away in advance, the shops on both sides are also hung with colorful flags, and the streets on both sides are once again crowded with people watching the excitement.

However, Emperor Zhu did not appear on the dock of Hanyangmen, nor did he see many convoys of high-ranking officials, only the honor guard of a prince and some carriages with the flag of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The carriage of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is quite common in Wuchang, but the prince's honor guard is rare. Although there are a lot of princes and county kings in the Ming Dynasty, most of them are concentrated in Yingtian and Wuhan Erfu, but they don't talk much about pomp and circumstance - they don't have that spare money if they want to talk about pomp! Emperor Zhu gave the prince 10,000 acres of land to collect rent, which is not a paddy field, and it is a few thousand stones of rice noodles for a year, which is converted into a few thousand taels of silver. The income is not low, but it is not very rich to support a large family and have to bear the education expenses of a group of children.

In this case, where is there still a prince who talks about pomp? What's the use of raising so many idle people? So now the princes of the Ming Dynasty are relatively simple, and they are all light and simple when they go out.

But the prince's guard of honor is still there! After all, the princes sometimes have to bear some official duties, such as going to the mausoleum of Tianshou Mountain in the north, the imperial mausoleum of Fengyang, the imperial mausoleum of Chengtianfu, the Konglin of Shandong, the royal temples and Taoist temples in various places, and the great lama in Tibet...... Sometimes I have to go abroad, go to Korea, Japan, Siam, Annam, in short, there are quite a lot of official activities.

These official activities are subsidized - you can't work in vain to do things for the country so far!

In addition, the state also has to give them a guard of honor, and the prince and the prince don't have to talk about pomp when they don't have official duties, but when they do things for the country, it is not their own pomp, but the face of the Celestial Empire.

Therefore, Emperor Zhu set up a special honor guard under the guard army (guard battalion), using the name of the big flag guard, and the establishment is almost a brigade (larger than the regiment and smaller than the division), Emperor Zhu needs to use the honor guard to find them, and other princes also look for them when they need the guard of honor - to serve different people, change into different clothes, carry different flags.

But here in Wuhan, there are really not many official activities that require the prince to come forward, because there are not many princes who came to Wuhan from Yingtian with Zhu Cihong.

And now the one who pulls hundreds of banner guards to fill the façade is the richest one among all the princes and county kings living in the two capitals, and he is the blessed king Zhu Cixiong, who is nicknamed the charter king.

At this time, Zhu Ciwei was standing on the pier of Hanyangmen with the Grand Duke of Shang Shuluo of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, watching a "local tyrant elephant" dressed in golden light walk up to the pier from an equally golden big ship.

Obviously, the person who came to Wuhan Mansion today must be a guest who is too wide to be wide!
