Chapter 54: The Sky of the Qianqing Palace

Concubine Zheng Guifei relieved her heart slightly, and said: "The saint also took into account that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind-hearted and left a will, and after his death, he named me the queen. As he spoke, he took out a piece of Wanli's will from his bosom.

When Wanli was seriously ill, Zheng Guifei finally understood how fragile and small she was after losing the big tree behind her, and today this Forbidden City is already the world of enemies.

The so-called imperial concubine is actually not very expensive, if Zhu Changluo wants to deal with her, the possibility of selling her cheaply is quite large. Zheng Guifei worked hard and hard, and finally let Wanli leave a will, which made it clear that once Wanli himself died, Zheng Guifei must be crowned queen.

In this way, after Wanli died, she naturally became the queen mother, no matter what, with this identity and status, it is not only an iron rice bowl but also can make Zhu Changluo fearful.

Zhu Changluo stretched out his hand and looked at it for a while, and said lightly: "Since it is the last order of my father, my sons should do it." ”

Zhu Changluo was furious in his heart: "It's really whimsical to be your mother's big dream of Spring and Autumn Festival, and you still want to be the queen mother, it's really whimsical, and it's already Lao Tzu who didn't put you into the cold palace immediately." ”

Zhu Changluo's face was silent, and he said loudly: "Wang An." ”

Wang An walked into the palace door in response, and Zhu Changluo handed Wanli's will to him and instructed: "This is the will of your father, you should send it to the Ministry of Rites immediately and tell them to follow it quickly." ”

Wang An took the will and glanced at Zhu Changluo, bowed and left quickly.

Concubine Zheng Guifei breathed a long sigh of relief, her nervous mood finally calmed down, it seems that the prince is still relatively loyal!

And the Ciqing Palace has already been turned upside down, Wei Zhongxian ran in the corridor sweating profusely, informing the news of the death of Emperor Wanli one by one, Wei Zhongxian did not have any sadness at this time, the only wave was that Zhu Changluo would be the emperor immediately.

Whether Zhu Changluo can become the emperor can be said to be of great importance to him, as soon as Zhu Changluo ascends the throne, his eldest son Zhu Youxiao will become His Royal Highness the Prince, and now Zhu Changluo only has two sons left, it is estimated that he will no longer favor one over the other like Wanli, because his favorite Li Xuanzhi has no son.

Although Zhu Changluo's love for Ren Hongfei has gradually surpassed that of his eldest son Zhu Youxiao, the battle for the national capital that happened to him is still vivid, and Zhu Changluo will definitely not risk the disapproval of the world and abolish Changlixiao, so Zhu Youxiao is the logical heir to the throne.

Now Wei Zhongxian is like glue with Ke Yinyue, although he is just an incomplete man, his sweet words, his sweet words, his tongue, and many benefits that cannot be known to outsiders are still something that Ke Yinyue has never encountered.

As long as you catch Ke Yinyue, it is equivalent to catching Zhu Youxiao. As long as Zhu Youxiao is captured, it is equivalent to catching the prince. As long as you catch the crown prince, it is equivalent to catching the next emperor!

Wei Zhongxian's fear of Ren Hongfei at this moment is getting deeper and deeper, a few days ago Ren Hongfei told him that Emperor Wanli will soon travel west with a crane and roll to Elysium, he still scoffed, he didn't expect it to be fulfilled so soon, so the ability of such an unpredictable prophet made him feel frightened, and at the same time he was determined not to go against Ren Hongfei's wishes, even a trace of dissatisfaction could not let him be born.

Although Wei Zhongxian has left, Li Xuanzhi is still turbulent in his heart, with joy and sorrow, happy that Zhu Changluo will be the emperor soon, and he is not far from the queen. The sad thing is that his belly is not angry, since Zhu Youmo died, he has not been able to bulge again, and gave birth to a boy and a girl for Zhu Changluo.

Li Xuanzhi made up his mind: "You must hold Zhu Youxiao well, with this emperor's eldest son in hand, everything will be fine!" ”

Ren Hongfei, Zhu Youxiao, Ye Hanqing, Zhu Huiyuan, and Ke Yinyue had just had a hearty lunch, and at this moment several people were gathering in the east wing room to be bored, Zhu Youxiao wanted to have a few drinks at noon, but the drunkard Ren Hongfei was resolutely opposed, saying what to say just in case, Zhu Youxiao muttered dissatisfaction in his heart: "It's been calm for so long, what if there's hair." ”

Everyone was idle, the door was suddenly pushed open, Wei Zhongxian was covered in sweat, staggering in, did not knock on the door, did not report in advance, did not enter the house to salute.

Zhu Youxiao's brows furrowed slightly, but Ren Hongfei asked with a faint smile: "Why is Gonggong Wei so anxious?" It's like your own house is on fire. ”

Wei Zhongxian was taken aback, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The eldest prince, the little prince, and the eight gege, there is an urgent matter, the Holy Lord died of illness today, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is summoning you to come over." ”

Ren Hongfei had already expected that his heart was uneasy, Zhu Huiyuan was shocked, but Zhu Youxiao turned his head and stared at Ren Hongfei.

At noon yesterday, I thought he was talking nonsense, but I didn't expect it to become a fact just one day later, Zhu Youxiao really couldn't imagine that this younger brother he loved the most was an unknown prophet, or he was casually blind.

Ren Hongfei's face was flat, he stretched his waist and said: "Let's go, I guess I didn't sleep or eat tonight, but fortunately, I had a hearty lunch just now and I was very full." ”

When Wei Zhongxian returned to lead the way, Zhu Youxiao, Ren Hongfei, and Zhu Huiyuan followed behind and walked out of the door, Ke Yinyue was overjoyed, although she was a full eighteen years older than Zhu Youxiao, but Zhu Youxiao, who had tasted the rain and dew for the first time, was already fascinated by her and never left for a moment.

Ke Yinyue took out the wine jug from the back room, swayed to the table and sat down, poured a full glass for herself, and smiled charmingly, it seemed that the day when she would become the queen was not far away, thinking about it, she couldn't help but giggle.

When the four of them hurriedly walked to the Qianqing Palace, they were already out of breath and sweating, and Liu Wei and Han Benyong, who were waiting at the door, looked at Zhu Youxiao and Ren Hongfei who were coming from afar, and bowed down early.

When Ren Hongfei passed by Han Benyong, he smiled at him slightly, and then passed by, that smiling face was very innocent and bright!

Han Benyong felt creepy under the scorching sun, because Ren Hongfei's self-talk some time ago still resounded in his ears, although he took a few steps back and pretended not to hear, every word had already been imprinted in his heart.

At that time, it seemed to be a child's unintentional talk, but now it has been realized one by one, Han Ben couldn't help but secretly decide from the bottom of his heart: "Grasp this little prince, he is the noble man who will soar in the future, follow him closely, and he will definitely glorify his ancestors and rise to the top!" ”

The sky in the Forbidden City, which had been stable for forty-eight years, had finally changed, and Wanli, the first era of the Ming Dynasty, had become the twilight of yesterday.

Ten days later, it will be the era of Zhu Changluo, who has endured humiliation, conscientiousness, and caution for 38 years, and finally looks forward to the dawn, and the era name Taichang personally selected by Zhu Changluo is about to be a new sky.
