"My lord, the big thing is not good, the king of Shunyi is gone, the wife of the king of Shunyi is in charge of the government, and Xin Ai Huang Taiji and Su Miya are all imprisoned, you must save them."

Zhu Yijun was wearing civilian clothes, and Mo Rigen had never seen him, because he didn't know his identity, after entering the courtyard, he rushed straight to Zhang You, and before he finished speaking, everyone had already changed color.

"My people just came back from Naturalization City, and they only said that King Shunyi was unwell, why did he die so quickly?" Zhang Chang's Dao, the Zhang family has a big business, involving all walks of life, and its footprints are all over the country, and the naturalization city is also among them.

Zhang You immediately remembered the historical record, it seems that in the spring of the tenth year of Wanli, the king of Shunyi died, and now it is nearly July, a few months late.

Of course, this is not the most important thing, since he crossed over, a lot of things have been affected, and it is normal to delay death for a few months. The important problem is that he has been busy dealing with Jiangnan affairs during this time, and he actually left this fork behind, and when it came to the end, he didn't prepare at all.

"The king of Shunyi was born on May 19, and the wife of the king of Shunyi kept the news tightly sealed, and declared that he was seriously ill, and that he had full authority for state affairs, and that Huang Taiji and Sumia were deceived back to Kukuhetun (Hohhot) at that time, and we arrived on May 27, but we were put under house arrest the day after entering the city, and it was not until ten days ago that I finally found an opportunity to sneak out...... Your Excellency, you must save Her Highness the Princess. ”

"Mrs. Zhong Jin has always been loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and the king of Shunyi has passed away, such a big news, according to what I know about her, I should have sent someone to report it to me as soon as possible, how could I block the news?"

Zhu Yijun asked puzzled, Mo Rigen knew that the slightly fatter young man in front of him was actually the son of today's tomorrow, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

Zhang You was actually also wondering about this question, and after Zhu Yijun instructed Mo Rigen to calm down, he said: "Your Majesty is right, according to what my father said, Mrs. Zhong Jin understands the overall situation and is oriented to Wang Hua. Now that the king of Shunyi has passed away, she should quickly report to the court and re-establish the king of Shunyi, what is the purpose of blocking the news? ”

According to the History of the Ming Dynasty, after the death of Altan Khan, the three ladies immediately informed the Ming Dynasty government of the news, and paid tribute to 9 white horses, 1 gilded bag, 1 bow, and 15 arrows, in order to show continued loyalty. The government of the Ming Dynasty also immediately sent envoys with generous gifts to pay tribute to Altan Khan, and the three ladies thanked the Ming Dynasty envoys as the master at that time.

In this regard, Zhang You remembered it very clearly, and it was difficult to understand what Mo Rigen said about blocking the news.

"This, I don't know very well, it seems that there is a contradiction in the selection of the heir to the throne, it stands to reason that Xin Ai Huang Taiji is the eldest son of King Shunyi, and the king of Shunyi died, and the throne should be inherited by him. However, Sumya is the princess of His Majesty the Ming Dynasty, so some people also support her to inherit the throne. And Mrs. Zhong Jin should mean that she hopes that her son will not be rude to inherit the throne. ”

Hearing Mo Rigen say this, Zhang You suddenly brightened up and said: "That's right, people are selfish, Mrs. Zhongjin has assisted Altan Khan for so many years, and she has made outstanding achievements, and now that Altan has died, it is reasonable to want her son to inherit the throne." As for the record of "History of the Ming Dynasty", it was written by the Later Qing Dynasty, not absolutely objective, and if you really want to study the history of the Ming Dynasty, at most it will have a reference role, and you can't do it.

Zhu Yijun nodded beside him: "In this way, Su Miya and Xin Ai Huang Taiji are not in any danger for the time being, after all, it is the princess I personally sealed, and I dare not hurt her with the courage of Mrs. Zhongjin." ”

"Yes, why do you have to worry about your majesty's face...... Okay Mo Rigen, you must be tired, go back to the house to rest first, and I will discuss it with Your Majesty. Zhang You first echoed Zhu Yijun, and then said to Mo Rigen.

Mo Rigen nodded, and went back to Zhang's Mansion - he had lived in Zhang's Mansion and was very familiar with it, but he didn't need to be led by others.

Hearing that Zhang You was going to discuss a major matter with Zhu Yijun, Zhang Chang's mother and daughter also retreated, Guo Zaoqing led the way first, leading the two back to their office, and gave up their seats and poured tea and water, and they had to retreat after they were busy, Zhu Yijun said: "Forget it, Lord Guo, you were Qi Yuanjing's most important staff, and your knowledge must be extraordinary, let's discuss it together." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Guo Zaoqing thanked him, he pulled the chair and sat diagonally, he was Zhang You's nominal husband, and he was never polite to Zhang You, but he never dared to make a mistake in front of the Son of Heaven.

"What is there to thank, we just discuss casually, and it is not a formal occasion, so there is no need for so much courtesy...... Let's talk about your opinion first, King Shunyi died suddenly, how should the court deal with Fang Jia? While speaking, Zhu Yijun took a sip of the teacup, and glanced at Guo Zaoqing, quite elegant.

Zhang You glanced at Guo Zaoqing encouragingly, and said in his heart that Mr. has been talented for many years, and he has never had the opportunity to show it.

Receiving Zhang You's gaze, Guo Zaoqing bowed slightly, took a deep breath, and muttered for a moment, before slowly speaking: "Since Your Majesty does not dislike the humble position of the micro-minister, then the micro-minister will talk about the opinion of the micro-minister." After the peace between Mongolia and Han, the border was stable, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, whether it was for Tatar or for our Ming Dynasty, it was a major event that could go down in history. From this point of view, the king of Shunyi is due to Sheji, and now that he has passed away, Weichen thinks that in order to express the importance of the imperial court, he should send envoys to the city of naturalization to pay tribute, which is one of the ......"

Zhu Yijun raised his head slightly: "What you said is reasonable, but second?" ”

"Second, it is the candidate to succeed the king of Shunyi, which is related to whether the relationship between the two sides can be maintained for a long time in the future, and we must be cautious. Weichen thinks that at least three principles should be followed, first, the successor must be mindful. Second, it's better to be someone who is easier to control. Third, it would be better if they could provoke internal strife. ”

Zhang You nodded thoughtfully: "Mr. Guo is reasonable, especially this last one, as long as they can provoke their internal contradictions, then they will not have the heart to rebel, from this principle, Weichen suggested that the imperial court should not immediately decide on the candidate for the king of Shunyi, and wait until they are exhausted from the head of the fight, and then nominate the weakest one to take over as the king of Shunyi." ”

"You two have thought of going to the same place with me, and I also think this is a good opportunity to weaken them. Of course, this matter will have to be discussed again with the auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, and by the way, the envoys will be decided. ”
