"Young Master Li, the emperor was fine yesterday, why did he die suddenly? You can't be wrong with your message! ”

After the initial panic and stunned, Guo Yunhou, the head of the household department, was the first to react, looking at Li Hongyu with a look of disbelief, and it was hard to believe that the Emperor of the Apocalypse had died for a while.

When the ministers at the scene heard this, they immediately looked at Li Hongyu in unison, wanting to know the truth of the matter, after all, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was so dignified that he would say that it was gone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter is true, it is the edict of the queen's inner servants who came to pass it to this official." Li Hongyu glanced around at the people in the hall with a serious expression, and then waved his hand, and the attendant sent by Zhang Yan walked in briskly from outside the door.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the miscellaneous family is the attendant of the queen's mother, the emperor is already asleep, and the queen mother summons all the adults to go to Xiyuan to discuss matters." Coming to everyone, the chamberlain bowed down and said solemnly.

Originally, Zhang Yan only let Li Hongyu go to Xiyuan alone, and the person she trusted the most in her heart was naturally Li Hongyu, and Li Hongyu also had the edict of the Emperor of the Apocalypse to let King Xin succeed to the throne.

But now Li Hongyu was blocked from the Daming Gate, so things became complicated, so he asked the chamberlain to change his mind and summoned the important ministers of the court to go together, so that there was a reason to force his way into the Daming Gate.

After all, the imperial city is a place where the emperor and the royal family live, although Li Hongyu entered the city at the behest of the queen's mother, but the generals who defended the city were not wrong, and there was no edict from the Emperor of the Apocalypse that he could refuse to open the city gate at night in case of accidents.

If Li Hongyu really relied on his influence in the pro-army to make the pro-army soldiers guarding the city gate open the city gate against the will of the guards, then Li Hongyu's trouble would be big, just imagine which emperor would like to see the gate of the imperial city and let a courtier enter and exit freely? Where is the royal majesty and safety?

Therefore, Li Hongyu will pull the high-ranking ministers in the DPRK and China, and the ministers will definitely impassionedly rebuke the guards of the Daming Gate, so as to dilute the personal color of this incident.

I have to say that the officialdom is sinister, and if you are not careful, you will make mistakes, if you change to those who are anxious or act high-flying and domineering on weekdays, they will definitely break through directly, and the consequences will be unimaginable, and this kind of "remembering" by the emperor is not comfortable.

"In that case, let's go to Xiyuan." After receiving an affirmative answer from the chamberlain, Mu Chongfeng, the governor of the pro-army capital and the Duke of Wuguo, immediately stood up and said to Li Hongyu in a deep voice.

Seeing this, the rest of the people also stood up one after another, the emperor's death was a major matter for the country, so they naturally had to rush to Xiyuan as soon as possible, in addition to dealing with the funeral of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, they also had to find out who the Emperor of the Apocalypse had passed the throne to.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this official wanted to enter the imperial city before, but was stopped by the guards of the Daming Gate, saying that the Daming Gate should not be opened at night without the emperor's edict."

Li Hongyu couldn't help but have a helpless look on his face, and said to everyone at the scene with a wry smile, "Now that the road to enter the imperial city has been blocked, I'm afraid no one can shout to open the city gate." ”

"There is such a thing!" Mu Chongfeng and the others were taken aback, their expressions were stunned, if the city gate was not opened at night, then why could Zhang Yan's chamberlain go out of the city?

"Don't hide it from you, the emperor has given the official an edict, once the emperor Bintian will be made public, and now that all of you are here, then the official will take it out for your lordship to check."

Seeing that the situation at the scene was a little commotion, Li Hongyu said quietly, and then slapped his hands a few times outside the door, and a guard walked in quickly holding a tray covered with yellow silk cloth in both hands.

"Master Fu, come and read the emperor's edict!" Li Hongyu stood up and said to Gu Bingqian, who was sitting on the side.

Gu Bingqian didn't shirk when he heard this, got up and lifted the yellow silk cloth on the tray, picked up the holy decree below, and the ministers sitting at the scene stood up one after another and bowed down.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict says: I ascended the throne at the age of sixteen......" After clearing his throat, Gu Bingqian read the content of the holy decree in a frustrated manner.

The first part of the holy decree is the memory of the Emperor of the Apocalypse after he ascended the throne, there are gratifications and regrets, the biggest satisfaction is that the overseas trade of the Ming Dynasty has been successfully opened, and the biggest regret is that the land of Liaodong is worthy of the ancestors.

Clear-eyed people can see that the two things that the Emperor of the Apocalypse is most concerned about are related to Li Hongyu, Li Hongyu not only started from scratch and successfully opened up the overseas trade routes of the Ming Dynasty, so that the imperial court could get two million taels of tax silver from each sea trade, but also greatly prospered the economy of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the loss of the land of Liaodong, if it weren't for Li Hongyu standing up at a critical moment and defeating the Houjin army in the battle of Shimenshan, the entire Guanwai would now be the world of Houjin.

It is no wonder that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was entrusted with an important task by Li Hongyu after his illness, Li Hongyu can be said to be a rare minister of both civil and military affairs in the Ming Dynasty, and he is also the teacher and even close friend of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, at this time the Emperor of the Apocalypse naturally believed him.

“…… King Zhu Youzhen is a young man, is the blood of the first emperor, won my heart, so I decided to follow Yu Shun after a hundred years, and pass on to the king of Xin, and the ministers should try their best to assist, Zhongxing Daming. Chin this! ”

At the end of the holy decree, the Emperor of the Apocalypse pointed out that Zhu Youzhen was an orthodox person of imperial power, so he passed the throne to Zhu Youzhen and let the ministers of the court and the central government carefully assist.

"The ministers obey the holy order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" After Gu Bingqian finished reading the word "Qin this", Li Hongyu and other ministers at the scene knelt down one after another and shouted in unison.

Subsequently, Gu Bingqian showed the holy decree to the ministers on the scene for inspection, everyone is a top official of the Ming Dynasty, naturally they will not be unfamiliar with the holy decree, not to mention that there are cabinet members who often draft the holy decree, so everyone quickly identified that the holy decree is true.

"Young Master, since the emperor has died, we should immediately enter the imperial city to announce the decree to King Xin."

After the ministers present checked the holy decree, Gu Bingqian put it away and handed it over to Li Hongyu, and said solemnly that with this edict, they can open the Daming Gate in a bright and bright way.

"Okay, let's go to Daming Gate together!" Hearing this, Li Hongyu glanced around at the ministers in the hall, and then said loudly, what he was waiting for was Gu Bingqian's words.

When Li Hongyu, Gu Bingqian and others appeared in front of the Daming Gate, everyone was already wearing white filial piety clothes to wear filial piety to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, who had died.

"General, something is wrong, Young Master Li, Master Fu, Duke Wu Guogong and other adults have come to the city, one by one, wearing heavy filial piety, let you go and answer."

On the upper floor of the city gate, a thousand households hurriedly reported to the guards who were taking a break in the room, looking a little flustered.

Don't say that none of these ministers can afford to provoke them, but there is also Wu Guogong, the pro-military governor of the palace, and their top boss.

"Don't pay attention to it, the city gate can't be opened at night without the emperor's edict!"

The guard general had expected that things would become like this, after all, Li Hongyu was not an idle person, so he would not dare to fight against Li Hongyu and the others, so he closed his eyes and continued to nap, out of sight and out of mind.

Seeing this, the Qianhu bowed and retreated, instructing the soldiers guarding the city to guard strictly and not to open the door without the edict of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"Young master, it seems that the people above are deliberately avoiding it, there is a big problem here!"

The people under the city shouted at the city gate for a long time, but the city gate was so quiet that there was no response, and they couldn't even see a figure, obviously hiding on purpose, so Gu Bingqian couldn't help frowning and said to Li Hongyu.

"The emperor has already been in the sky, but they said that the city gate will not be opened unless the emperor's edict is issued, and they make it clear that they don't want us to go in."

Zhang Weixian, the British prince on the side, looked at Li Hongyu expressionlessly when he heard this, "Young master, now that the queen and the king of faith are in the city, we must hurry in to avoid accidents!" ”

"Yes, we must enter the city as soon as possible to report the safety of the queen and the king of letters."

When the surrounding ministers heard this, they all opened their mouths to echo, Zhang Yan let them go into the city to take care of the aftermath of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, but the guards of the Ming Gate refused to let them go, and King Xin was the prince of the Ming Dynasty.

"Tell the people in the city that we will enter the city by the edict, and if we don't open the city gate again, we will bombard the gate with Hongyi cannons, and all the consequences will be borne by them."

Seeing that everyone had formed a consensus, Li Hongyu couldn't help but say to the British Duke Zhang Weixian in a deep voice, "The British Duke, the Beijing army in the outer city is under your control, and the matter of adjusting the artillery is still under the command of the Duke of Guo. ”

"Wu Guogong, you are the pro-army Zuodu Governor, and before the Hongyi cannon is transferred, I hope that Guogong can shout to open the city gate and avoid shelling the Daming Gate." As he spoke, Li Hongyu turned to Mu Chongfeng, the Duke of Wuguo, and commanded in a loud voice.

Bombarding the imperial city is a very taboo thing, no one wants to see this scene until the last resort, but now because it is related to the safety of King Xin, the future son of heaven of the Ming Dynasty, they have no choice if they are really in a hurry.

Zhang Weixian and Mu Chongfeng glanced at each other, shook their heads, and then reluctantly ordered to go and transfer the Hongyi cannon, he was the highest-ranking person among the three major governors in charge of the capital army in the outer city, so this order must be given by him.

"The prince told you that all the ministers were ordered to enter the city, and if you don't open the door again, the Hongyi cannon will be transferred, and as long as the cannon sounds, you will wait for the severe punishment of the national law!"

Mu Chongfeng personally came to the city and shouted at the defenders on the tower of the city gate, "The Duke of China now orders you to capture the rebellion and open the city gate in the name of the Governor of Zuodadu!" ”

Hearing that the Hongyi cannon was going to be transferred, the pro-soldiers on the tower of the city gate were suddenly in a commotion, but they had heard of the power of the Hongyi cannon, and the Jiannu chief Nurhachi was killed by it, although the Daming Gate was strong, it could not withstand a few cannons.

"General, it's not good, they're going to bring in the Hongyi cannon." The Qianhu who was watching the wind from the tower of the city gate heard the words and hurriedly reported to the guards, obviously he did not think that the city gate of Daming Gate could block the Hongyi cannon.

"What?" The guard who was closing his eyes suddenly opened his eyes and showed a shocked look on his face, "...... How dare they bombard the Imperial City? ”
