Chapter 13
Seeing that I was convinced, the faces of Zheng Chenggong, Xia Wanchun and other popular people turned green.
Especially Chen Yuanyuan, who looked at me with even more disdain.
I understand them, they will support me at the cost of their lives, and for their loyal and patriotic people, I am the hope of the Ming Dynasty.
But they didn't know that I was doing it for their sake, and I didn't want everyone to be killed because of me.
"Brother Huang, since you have taken the throne, please hand over the jade seal of the country, and pass on the virtues of the ancestors!" King Fu said with a smile.
Mom, if the jade seal of the country is handed over, I will really be completely abolished.
I hesitated, not knowing what to do.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Wang Chengen stood up and took the initiative to hand the heirloom jade seal to King Fu.
Seeing this, everyone sighed and shook their heads, I don't understand what Wang Chengen means.
I'm thinking, he knows the importance of the jade seal of the country better than me, and he supported me so much before, why did he change his hexagram now?
King Fu raised the jade seal of the country above his head, and said excitedly: "The Ming Dynasty is mine, hahaha"
Grass! Looking at his disgusting appearance, Lao Tzu really wanted to vomit, just a faint gentleman like him, Zhu Yuanzhang probably crawled out of the grave angrily.
"Congratulations to the emperor!" The ministers flattered themselves.
After getting excited, King Fu looked at me and said, "Brother Huang, I still have state affairs to discuss, you can take them to the Heart Cultivation Palace to rest!" ”
I said yes with a bitter face, and I had to leave with someone.
As soon as he walked to the door, King Fu suddenly said, "General Zheng, please stay!" ”
Zheng Chenggong ignored him and followed me on, but I didn't let him go, but whispered to him to stay.
The reason why I asked Zheng Chenggong to stay was to let him see what King Fu wanted to do next.
Now in our group, the only person who can use King Fu may be Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Chenggong stayed, and we were "escorted" to the Yangxin Palace by hundreds of forbidden soldiers.
As soon as he returned to the Yangxin Palace, Xia Wanchun grabbed Wang Chengen and said, "Princess, why did you hand over the jade seal?" ”
To be honest, I also wondered about Wang Chengen's behavior, but I still scolded Xia Wanchun and asked him to let Wang Chengen go.
I have to say that Xia Wanchun is still too young, although his martial arts are invincible, but he is really too impulsive to do things, compared to Zheng Chenggong, he is almost hot.
Wang Chengen looked outside, and after making sure that there was no one, he walked up to me, put his ear close to me, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the ......"
After listening to his words, I instantly smiled and gave him a thumbs up.
Yes, Wang Chengen did a really great job, without him, I would not be able to be an emperor in the future.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but Wang Chengen said: "The emperor has been serving as an old slave since he was a child, and even if the old slave dies, he will not harm the emperor!" After saying that, he burst into tears.
Seeing him crying, my buddy's heart softened, hugged him, patted him on the back and said, "Lao Wang, I will definitely not let you down!" ”
Everyone was a little confused when they saw this, after all, I am the emperor, and it is really a bit bad to hold a eunuch.
But to be honest, buddy, I crossed over, and I was indeed moved by the camaraderie of these people.
Every word I say to them, every action I make, is from the bottom of my heart, and I am by no means acting.
"Your Majesty, what's going on?" Xia Wanchun asked puzzled.
"Xiao Xia, you don't need to ask about this, you will naturally understand when the time comes."
As soon as he finished talking about the jade seal, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and before Wang Chengen could open the door, more than a dozen palace maids walked in with food.
"Abolished King, this is a dinner party prepared for you by the emperor!"
I took a look, and it was full of some delicacies from the mountains and seas, and it was very fragrant.
I knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
After that, I took the food and was about to eat it, but Wang Chengen stopped it.
I understood what he meant, he was worried that Fu Wang would poison the food, but I don't think Fu Wang would have done it to me so soon.
"Your Majesty, let the folk girl try it for you!" Chen Yuanyuan said and walked over.
Although I don't think Fuwang will kill me so soon, I'm still afraid that there will be a problem, but I am really touched that Chen Yuanyuan can stand up and try it for me.
Fortunately, there was no poison in the food, and the group was also hungry, so they devoured it and ate it.
When the meal was about to be finished, there was a sound of footsteps in the study, and Xia Wanchun threw down his chopsticks and rushed over.
"Zheng Gongzi, it's your ......"
Zheng Chenggong walked out with Xia Wanchun, and I asked in surprise: "Xiao Zhen, why are you in the study?" ”
Zheng Chenggong lowered his voice and said: "The emperor doesn't know, now there are hundreds of forbidden soldiers guarding the main gate of Yangxin Palace, fortunately, when King Fu of the previous month ascended the throne, I came to Chaohe to live in Yangxin Palace, so I climbed in from the courtyard wall behind the study!" ”
"I see!" I sighed and asked, "What did King Fu say when he told you to stay?" ”
Zheng Chenggong saw that there were many people, so he took me to the study alone, while Xia Wanchun was guarding the gate of the Yangxin Palace.
"King Fu left his ministers behind, exempted the ministers from capital crimes in front of hundreds of officials, and then wanted to be vassals as the commander-in-chief of Fuzhou."
"Do you say yes?"
"The minister only respects the emperor as the Ming Dynasty, so he refused on the spot!"
Nima! Zheng Chenggong is too upright, which makes me both admire and anger, because what I need most now is the army.
The gun is out of power, and the reason why he will be soft with King Fu today is because he has no military power.
King Fu did this to put it bluntly in order to buy him, and the general army of Fuzhou was higher than his previous position, before he was only in charge of the water division, and the general army of Fuzhou was in charge of both land and water.
I suppressed my anger and said, "Xiao Zheng, I know that you are loyal, but you have not done it properly. ”
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with this? I, Zheng Sen, am not a person who covets glory and wealth, and I came to Yangxin Palace today at the risk of death, just to save the emperor from going out. ”
"I'm not leaving!" I said firmly.
"Your Majesty, why is this? Don't you know that it is dangerous to stay in Nanjing now? King Fu could kill you at any time. Please follow me to Fuzhou to claim the emperor, and then I will return to Nanjing......"
I interrupted him and said, "If I go to Fuzhou with you, King Fu will definitely attack south, I don't want to let the Ming Dynasty fight in the civil war because of myself, once the civil war in the Ming Dynasty will die!" ”
Gao Xiaosong specifically said in "The Tragedy of Nanming" that the main reason for Nanming's failure was infighting. Dude, if I want to change the direction of history, I can't repeat the old path.
"The minister knows that the emperor is benevolent, but what can he do if he stays in Nanjing?"
In fact, during the meal, I had already thought about what I was going to do in Nanjing, and I had also planned how to regain power.
But if you want to seize power at the lowest cost, Zheng Chenggong alone is definitely not enough.
"I know that King Fu will kill me sooner or later, but as long as Wu Sangui does not betray me, then I still have a chance. You just have to do what I want, and I won't fail! ”
Yes, as long as Wu Sangui is still in my hands, I will be able to get rid of King Fu from the inside and outside, as for why, you can see it by looking back.
"Uh...... What should the minister do? ”
"Tomorrow in the court, you admit your mistakes to King Fu, and then take over the post of Fuzhou General Army. If you take over as the commander-in-chief of Fuzhou, King Fu will not be suspicious of you, and everything will be easy to do at that time! ”
"I still don't understand."
"You don't have to understand, just do it!"
"Forehead ......"
After saying this, I called Wang Chengen into the study again.
"Lao Wang, give things to Xiao Zheng!"
"Your Majesty, what is it, the old slave doesn't understand?"
"It's that 'thing', don't you understand?"
Wang Chengen thought about it for a while, and then took the "things" from his bag to Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Chenggong asked with a surprised face when he saw it, "Why are you still there?" ”
"It's not safe for this thing to stay with me, Xiao Zheng, you take it out, you must not lose it!"
"The emperor can rest assured, the ministers will never live up to the emperor's grace!"
When Zheng Gongcheng saw this "thing", he immediately had confidence.
"Alright, you remember what I told you, and let's go."
After saying that, Zheng Chenggong jumped out of the window in one fell swoop, and his skills were quite agile.
I went back to the hall with Wang Chengen, and after I went back, I called everyone over and told them that they should stop calling me emperor in the future, and they must call me the deposed king.
Everyone was very surprised when they heard this, especially Chen Yuanyuan, whose eyes changed when he saw me, and asked me very puzzled: "Your Majesty, are you really willing to be this abolished king?" ”
I deliberately stood at the door and shouted at the forbidden army guarding outside: "What am I unwilling to do, now I have food and drink, and I don't have to be displaced, how good!" What is good about being an emperor, being an emperor is tiring to death, Lao Tzu just wants to rest and enjoy it now. ”
Everyone was stupid when they saw that I was abnormal, and Chen Yuanyuan even booed and didn't even look at me.
They don't know that I am speaking this to the blessed king.
King Fu arranged for the forbidden army to guard the Yangxin Palace, not to protect my safety, but to monitor me under house arrest.
As long as I live, King Fu will worry for a day, because my existence is a threat to him.
There are many such things in history. For example, Cao Pi during the Three Kingdoms period, he did not hesitate to kill his own brother in order to become the emperor, although his younger brother Cao Zhi wrote "Seven Steps Poem", but to no avail.
This is politics, in the face of politics, even brothers will kill each other, not to mention that Chongzhen and King Fu are not brothers.
But if I show that I have no desire to pursue the throne, and if I spend my days being lascivious, eating, drinking, and merrymaking, and becoming a complete waste, then King Fu's guard will be relaxed.
In this way, I will have the opportunity to carry out my plan to seize power.
can come up with such a strategy, it's not that I'm smart, buddy, but because my buddy has watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and I'm completely learning from Liu Adou - I can't miss it!
