Chapter 286: Hongguang
"Even if King Fu ascends the throne, is he stronger than Your Majesty?"
Shi Kefa stood up, staring at Qian Qianyi with blazing eyes, he thought about it a lot, but he never thought that Qian Qianyi would defect, everyone said it well yesterday, together against King Fu's accession to the throne, why did he change his hexagram now?
Facing Shi Kefa's gaze, Qian Qianyi was full of wry smiles in his heart, how could he want to change his position, but now that Ma Shiying has mastered all the troops in Nanjing, what's the point of resisting again? Do you want to be slaughtered?
"King Fu is definitely stronger than Your Majesty in one thing, and that is the trust of the cabinet in his courtiers!" Qian Qianyi squinted at Shi Kefa and said slowly.
"......" Shi Kefa was silent, he understood the meaning of Qian Qianyi's words, the reason why Daming fell into this situation has a lot to do with Chongzhen's character.
Personality suspicion, impatience, quick success, and dare not take responsibility, these are Chongzhen's fatal shortcomings. Whether it is Yuan Chonghuan or Yang Sichang, or even Lu Xiangsheng Sun Chuanting, for these capable governors and ministers, Chongzhen has never trusted them without doubt, and as long as there is a setback, he will attack them.
Fu Wang Zhu Youxiang is definitely more greedy and lustful than Chongzhen, and he will definitely not be as diligent as Chongzhen, compared with the self-disciplined Chongzhen, Fu Wang completely echoes the appearance of a faint king.
However, such an emperor is better controlled, with King Fu as the emperor, as long as he is given wealth and beauty, he will definitely not take power like Chongzhen, so that the authority of the cabinet will be strengthened, and there will be no more changes in the imperial order.
In this way, as long as there is no party strife and there is no chaos in the court, there will be time to regroup, recruit soldiers and horses, requisition grain and grass, and train soldiers, and it will be completely possible to block the thieves north of the Yangtze River.
"Your Royal Highness King Fu, if you ascend the throne, will you trust the cabinet and the soldiers on the front line?" Qian Qianyi no longer paid attention to Shi Kefa, turned to face King Fu, and asked solemnly.
"Of course, hahaha," King Fu was stupid, but he also knew that things were already developing in a good direction, and generously promised, "King Gu is not as suspicious and unkind as Chongzhen, if Gu becomes the emperor, he will definitely trust you Aiqing, and I believe that everyone will work together to protect my Ming dynasty." ”
At this moment, King Fu was so excited that he was almost speechless, the emperor's throne was only a stone's throw away, father, your son of the throne is going to snatch it for you!
"King Fu is really a benevolent monarch, and the minister Qian Qianyi respectfully invites His Royal Highness King Fu to ascend the throne and inherit my Ming Emperor!"
Qian Qianyi knelt down and shouted to King Fu.
This is support! Looking down at Qian Qianyi, who was full of white hair, King Fu was already speechless with excitement.
Nima? Looking at Qian Qianyi, who knelt down first, Ma Shiying was in a complicated mood, too shameless, too much to see the wind and rudder, and now he has become the first person to stand up. I spent so much effort to help King Baofu ascend the throne, and this guy only spent a few words of lips and tongues, and snatched a large piece of the credit from his own hands!
But no matter how unhappy he was in his heart, Ma Shiying had to admit that Qian Qianyi's move had helped him a lot, and now I am afraid that most of the courtiers have been shaken in their hearts, and no matter how intimidated by the might of the soldiers, I am afraid that there are not many people who dare to be strong!
was preempted by Qian Qianyi, Ma Shiying didn't dare to slack off, and knelt down with a "poof".
"Minister Ma Shiying respectfully invites His Royal Highness King Fu to ascend the throne and inherit the throne!"
"Minister Zhao Zhilong respectfully invites His Royal Highness King Fu to ascend the throne and inherit the unification!"
"Minister Liu Kongzhao respectfully invites His Royal Highness King Fu to ascend the throne and inherit the unification!"
As Zhao Zhilong and Liu Kongzhao knelt down, the other lords in the hall also knelt down one after another.
Xu Jiujue, the Duke of Wei, looked at the lords who knelt down successively with a complicated expression, sighed secretly in his heart, and knelt down.
The lords and ministers all knelt down, which means that the military generals of Nanjing supported King Fu, and the civil officials present looked at each other, and finally some people knelt down.
Qian Qianyi is the leader of the Donglin Party, and Nanjing is the nest of the Donglin Party, his prestige is not too high, he took the lead in supporting King Fu, and he was influenced by him and befriended him silently knelt down.
Seeing one minister after another kneeling down one after another, Shi Kefa's face was extremely ugly, and his heart was full of despair.
But his heart did not waver, maybe King Fu became emperor to the ministers, but so what? I am the secretary of the Nanjing military department appointed by Emperor Chongzhen, and Chongzhen is my king. The actions of Ma Shiying, Qian Qianyi and others are no different from rebellion and betrayal, you Qian Qianyi doesn't care about the reputation behind you, but I, Shi Kefa, will never be a rebel and a thief!
Slowly, almost all the civil ministers and military generals knelt down to King Fu, and only a few people such as Shi Kefa and Lu Daqi were left in the court, and even Jiang Yueguang and Zhang Shenyan, who participated in the discussion in the Shi Mansion last night, also knelt down.
Ma Shiying, who was kneeling on the ground, turned his head, glanced at Shi Kefa and the others, waved his hand, and the soldiers in the hall forced Shi Kefa and the others with knives and guns.
"Your Majesty, although Shi Kefa and the others are stubborn, but Your Majesty, you have ascended the throne for the first time today, and it is a day of great joy, and it is not easy to kill."
Qian Qianyi, who was kneeling, hurriedly shouted to King Fu who was sitting on the throne.
King Fu thought for a while and nodded, "What Qian Aiqing said makes sense, let's take them down first!" ”
Looking at Shi Kefa and the others who were escorted away by the soldiers, Ma Shiying's eyes shrank slightly, and he was secretly vigilant in his heart. Qian Qianyi's move is undoubtedly buying people's hearts, it seems that he has an opponent in the court!
On April 29, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the blessed king Zhu Youxiang officially ascended the throne in the Forbidden City of Nanjing, and changed the Yuan Hongguang. Feng Ma Shiying was a scholar of the Huagai Palace and concurrently served as the secretary of the Ministry of War, entered the cabinet to govern, and with the merit of Qian Qianyi's persuasion, he was named a scholar of the Wuyingdian University and concurrently served as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the second assistant of the cabinet.
At the same time, the Zhan Shi Jiang Yue Guang was the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and the former scholar Wang Duo entered the cabinet together, with Zhang Shenyan as the secretary of the ministry, Gao Hongtu as the secretary of the household, and Liu Zongzhou as the imperial history of the left capital.
In terms of ministers, Zhao Zhilong and Liu Kongzhao were both named national princes for their meritorious service. Zhao Zhilong was the garrison of Nanjing for the Duke of Xinguo, and Liu Kongzhao was the governor of Caojiang for the protector of the country.
Liu Zeqing led his troops to escort King Fu to Nanjing, and made great contributions, and was named the governor of Zuodu, the prince and the prince, and the marquis of Dongping.
Gao Jie was named the Prince Taibao and the Marquis of Xingping, Liu Liangzuo was named the Prince Shaobao and the Marquis of Guangchang, and Huang Degong was named the Prince and the Marquis of Jingnan.
Han Zanzhou, the former Nanjing garrison eunuch, was named the eunuch of the celebrant and became the head of the eunuchs of the inner palace, and Lu Jiude, the former eunuch of Fengyang Town, was named the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi, and the power was not under Han Zanzhou.
Yiying received a reward from the ministers of the dragon, and the Hongguang small court was officially established. As for the stubborn Shi Kefa, Lu Daqi and others, they were sent to the prison to wait for their fate!
