After Zhu Youzhen returned to the Xinwang Mansion, he found that the guards of the Xinwang Mansion were much stricter than before, and most of the people passing by at the gate of the palace were dressed as brocade guards. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Youzhen knew that this was the consequence of his identity change, at this time, the Xinwang Mansion was like another palace, after Zhu Youzhen entered the Xinwang Mansion, Zhou Yufeng and Wang Chengen had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Zhu Youzhen, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, although both of them hoped that Zhu Youzhen could become the emperor, but when Zhu Youzhen entered the palace, they were extremely worried, lest Wei Zhongxian would try to frame Zhu Youzhen, but both of them misunderstood Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian is a smart person, he will never do it without full certainty, if Zhu Youzhen enters the palace and dies, he is afraid that the Emperor of the Apocalypse will make a holy decree to let Wei Zhongxian die in front of him. What's more, Zhu Youzhen at this time did not show a trace of disrespect to Wei Zhongxian, and he had no reason to break the boat.

Zhu Youzhen told the two of them not to worry, and also told the two of them about the matter in the palace, although they had known about this matter for a long time, but when they knew that the holy decree had been promulgated, the two of them were a little relieved.

Wang Chengen and Zhou Yufeng were not worried, but Zhu Youzhen began to worry, he knew that becoming the emperor was only the first step, and he would have a second step and a third step in the future, he didn't think that he could eradicate Wei Zhongxian as usual.

The eunuch party has fallen, is the politics clear?

The people said that after Wei Zhongxian's death, the politics of the Ming Dynasty suddenly became clear, and Emperor Chongzhen was the Ming monarch, but Zhu Youzhen knew that the eunuch party completely collapsed and made the Donglin party completely bigger, which was not good for the court and himself.

The political struggle in the imperial court is often mixed with military games, and Wei Zhongxian's presence of soldiers in his hands is a problem that cannot be ignored.

Cui Chengxiu's position made him have scruples to deal with, in history, first Cui Chengxiu fell, and then Wei Zhongxian, which was also the good intentions of Emperor Chongzhen.

Pulling a gang to fight a gang is the favorite thing for all emperors to do, is there unity within the eunuch party, if it is united, what did Wei Zhongxian do when Emperor Chongzhen attacked Cui Chengxiu in the last time and space? No, it can be seen that there is disunity within the eunuch party.

When he was a history professor, there was a sudden moment when Zhu Youzhen had such an idea, if Wei Zhongxian had not fallen, would the Ming Dynasty have perished so quickly? But at this time, Zhu Youzhen was about to ascend the throne and become the emperor, and he understood why Emperor Chongzhen had to eradicate Wei Zhongxian, and if he wanted to be an emperor with achievements, he first wanted to establish authority, and Wei Zhongxian was guilty of great sins and was powerful, so he was the best tool to establish authority.

The news of Zhu Youzhen's entry into the palace spread all over the Ming officialdom at a very fast speed, and the next day the Emperor of the Apocalypse summoned Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, to enter the palace to face the saint, and everyone knew in their hearts that Zhu Youzhen's inheritance of the great treasure was a foregone conclusion.

On the second day of August in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the Emperor of the Apocalypse died in the Qianqing Palace at the age of 23. ”

After the death of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, according to the usual practice, the hundred officials persuaded the table, and after the first persuasion table was sent to the Xinwang Mansion, someone replied, which probably means that the emperor's brother has just returned to heaven, I am very sad, how can I bear to be the emperor at this moment.

After the first persuasion form was returned, the second persuasion form arrived, and Zhu Youzhen personally replied after seeing it, "Qing and others are the ancestors of the heart, and their words are earnest. Please do not allow it. "It's a little softer than the previous tone, probably meaning that all the ministers are loyal to the court, looking at you makes me think of the deceased imperial brother, even more sad, I really can't inherit the emperor's throne.

After Zhu Youzhen knew that the third persuasion table was coming, what was waiting for him was the enthronement ceremony.

After the third persuasion form came up, Zhu Youzhen wrote a reply similar to that of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's persuasion table: "Qing and other conjunctive words are pleading, and they have been loyal to the third. The heavenly position is the most important, it is difficult to be honest for a long time, and the last life is bowing, and I dare not be stubborn, and I am reluctant to ask for it. The meaning of this sentence is that I am the emperor.

In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the three major battalions of the whole city were under martial law, and Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, and Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, led hundreds of civil and military officials in Beijing, and thousands of people welcomed Zhu Youzhen into the palace to inherit the throne.

Zhu Youzhen wore a dragon robe and entered the palace in the kneeling of all the people, and rode into the palace.

In the enthronement ceremony, Zhu Youzhen promulgated the enthronement edict: Our country is a saint, a retired column, a long and beautiful custom, tired and heavy, and a thousand worshippers. I am the emperor of Daxing, Rendu Hantian, Yingmo Xiangu, Li Jingxiao, Rui Xian, Haiyu Look, Weixin Xinjiang, diligent recovery, all opportunities, six acts. Fang Qihongtu, Hubin Longyu, take care of his life, and bow down, listen to a few words, and remember the importance of inheritance. As for the repeated refusal of resignation, the resignation and refusal of the fee were relied upon to obey the edict, and on August 24, he only reported to heaven and earth, that is, the emperor's throne. (Original text of the enthronement edict)

After the edict was issued, Zhu Youzhen knew that he was already the legitimate emperor of the Ming Dynasty and that the country would run in his own hands.

After ascending the throne, Zhu Youzhen called himself me, and he didn't have time to experience the feeling of being an emperor, so he went to the dormitory where Empress Zhang was, and after meeting Empress Zhang, Empress Zhang wanted to give a gift, but was stopped by Zhu Youzhen.

"The imperial sister-in-law must not be tortured, when the imperial brother was dying, he once made it clear to me that he should treat the imperial sister-in-law well. If the imperial sister-in-law saluted me, wouldn't it make the world laugh at me. ”

Empress Zhang is in a bad state, he knows that what Zhu Youzhen is saying now is what the new emperor should do, and he wants to show a signal to the outside world that the new emperor respects the first emperor, of course, this signal is also to be expressed to Wei Zhongxian.

Empress Zhang only left a few intimate maids, and whispered to Zhu Youzhen: "The emperor has just entered the palace, be careful. ”

"Sister-in-law don't worry, I have my own thoughts."

Empress Zhang saw the calm Zhu Youzhen, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, Empress Zhang knew that the Ming Dynasty at this time could no longer experience major political twists and turns.

And Zhu Youzhen has great respect for Empress Zhang in his heart, after Li Zicheng entered the Beijing Division, Emperor Chongzhen once sent someone to inform Empress Zhang to commit suicide and martyrdom, but the person who delivered the news did not deliver the news, it was too late to commit suicide, Li Zicheng knew that Empress Zhang was a generation of virtuous queens, and did not dare to offend, so he sent Empress Zhang back to the house of Taikang Bo Zhang Guoji, and at night, Empress Zhang committed suicide and Tai Kangbo's home.

After talking with Empress Zhang, Zhu Youzhen returned to the Qianqing Palace and summoned the eunuch Wei Zhongxian of Bingbi, and the eunuch Wang Tiqian came to meet the saint.

After receiving the holy decree, the two did not dare to delay, and hurried to Zhu Youzhen's palace.

The two of them said "Long live" and bowed.

"Flat."

The two stood up.

Wei Zhongxian knew in his heart that the emperor must have some will to summon him and Wang Tiqian to come.

Sure enough, as soon as the two of them stood up, they heard Zhu Youzhen, who was sitting on the top, say: "The imperial brother returned to heaven, leaving the imperial sister-in-law alone, I was in distress in my heart, and the imperial brother once made it clear to me that he wanted me to treat the imperial sister-in-law well." I want to issue an edict to honor the imperial sister-in-law as Empress Yi'an, and live in Ciqing Palace. ”

Wei Zhongxian and Wang Tiqian hurriedly agreed: "Respect the emperor's will." ”

After Wei Zhongxian and Wang Ti went down, the sky was getting dark.

Because Wang Chengen and Zhou Yufeng can only enter the palace tomorrow, in the entire Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youzhen does not have a familiar eunuch and maid.

Late at night, Zhu Youzhen had a trace of fear in his heart, although he knew the history, Wei Zhongxian did not attack Zhu Youzhen, but just used the smoke of the wall, but is this time and space still the same as before?

The Ming Palace is full of many mysteries through the ages, and Zhu Youzhen is afraid that he will also become the protagonist of the mysteries.

In the quiet middle of the night, Zhu Youzhen heard some movement outside the room, and his heart moved, got up from the dragon bed, and walked slowly outside the room.

Zhu Youzhen opened the door suddenly, only to see a sixteen or seventeen-year-old little eunuch asleep leaning against the wall.

The sound of the door opening woke the little eunuch.

The little eunuch opened his eyes and saw Zhu Youzhen, he was frightened, hurriedly knelt down, and said with a crying voice: "Your Majesty, forgive your sins, forgive your sins." ”

"You're the one on duty."

"Yes, the minions are." The little eunuch hurriedly replied.

"What are your sins?"

"The slave is asleep serving the emperor, damn it, damn it."

Seeing the little eunuch so frightened, Zhu Youzhen suddenly understood that he was no longer the former King of Xin, nor was he a professor of history, he was now the orthodox heir to the throne of the Ming Dynasty, occupying the highest point of morality and power, and it should be Wei Zhongxian who should be afraid.

If Wei Zhongxian summoned a few little eunuchs and said to them, "You go and kill the emperor tonight." "I'm afraid that these little eunuchs will sell Wei Zhongxian if they agree clearly, and they will sell Wei Zhongxian when they turn their faces, this is the difference in status.

Even if Wei Zhongxian has great power, he is only a eunuch.

Cui Chengxiu, Wang Tiqian, Five Tigers and Five Biao, these ruthless people approached Wei Zhongxian, not because of Wei Zhongxian's personality charm, but because the Emperor of the Apocalypse gave Wei Zhongxian the right.
