Chapter 825: A Few Families Are Happy and a Few Are Sad
Zhou Hou, who was in a heavy mood, was not interested in dressing up, and was still leaning on the quilt at the moment.
With "the sunrise flowers, the warbler wears the willow belt, and the incense is still pressed." Warm and crispy, greasy clouds, tired of combing all day long. It is best to describe her state at this time.
It is inevitable to think a lot about the accident, and Zhou Hou thinks that marrying a daughter to the king of the south is really a blessing in misfortune, if she and the prince and the princess do not leave the capital, what kind of disaster will they face?
The report of the female official interrupted Queen Zhou's thoughts, and her daughter was not an outsider, so she passed it on directly.
Kun Xing Xizi came to his mother's side and saluted and said: "Mother, I am very happy, my prince has received a report confirming that the British Duke escorted his brother to break through the siege of thieves and retreat to the Tianjin Acropolis with 'Nanming' heavy troops, and my brother's safety is guaranteed. It is possible that we have gone to Huangjiawan Island to wait for us. ”
This is really great news, Queen Zhou sat up with her hands folded and said: "Thank you Bodhisattva for blessing, thank you for the gods and Buddhas, thank you for the ancestors and ancestors, and there is no Amitabha Buddha ......in the south."
Zhou Hou has been worrying about her heart these days, she is actually more concerned about her son, maternal love is always selfless and great, knowing that her son was not harmed by the thief, Zhou Hou was a little incoherent.
Kun Xing sat down next to his mother and took her hand and asked tentatively: "Queen Mother, my brother is the Prince of Daming, what are you going to do?"
"Alas! I have any plans for a woman, whether the prince can do anything is not up to him, but to the attitude of the king of the south, now that the Ming dynasty has been ruined, only the king of the south can turn things around. ”
Kun Xing nodded and said: "Mother is right, the mountains and rivers of Daming are broken, and the king of the south will next wield his army to annihilate the thieves and recapture the capital division into the Central Plains, at that time, does the queen mother expect her brother to succeed to the emperor's throne." ”
Zhou Hou shook his head and said: "The country is ruined, Hong'er is fortunate to be able to escape from death, my mother doesn't want him to be the emperor, I just want him to live a peaceful life." Whether this can be so depends on the attitude of King Nan. ”
Mother's attitude was expected by Kun Xing, and she simply picked out the topic and said: "Mother, there are so many civil and military generals in 'Nanming', they are unwilling to defend the Ming Dynasty everywhere.
Now it has been collectively written to ask the prince to ascend the throne and achieve the emperor's cause. The prince ascended the throne not only as the emperor of the 'Southern Ming', but also as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. ”
The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and what Zhou Hou is most worried about is to fight in the same room, and the crown prince has not become the foundation of the new Ming Empire emperor who has become one, so of course he must let his son-in-law become the emperor at this time.
She said: "Jiao'er, you are already the princess of 'Nanming', so naturally follow the will of King Nan and be a good wife." The Ming Dynasty has accumulated a lot of difficulties, and it is understandable that the King of the South recaptured the Ming Dynasty from the thieves and included it in the territory of the 'Southern Ming'.
Hong'er is already lucky to be able to escape the clutches of the thieves, I just want him to live his life peacefully, and there is really no intention of letting Hong'er compete with King Nan for the throne. ”
Queen Zhou is virtuous, but it does not mean that she has no assertiveness and does not know things, on the contrary, she is very good at protecting herself and her son, she knows the intention of her daughter to ask these words today, and understands that her statement with her daughter will reach the ears of the king of the south.
She knew that her husband, Emperor Chongzhen, could not keep the Ming Dynasty with all his might, and her son was just an ignorant teenager, with no financial power, military power, and no support from civil and military generals.
Zhou Hou did not hesitate to resolutely express his support for Nanwang to be the emperor, and also supported the merger of "Nanming" and Daming, which clarified the attitude of Empress Daming to fully support Nanwang's decision.
Kun Xing felt relaxed when she received her mother's reply, she snuggled in her mother's arms and said: "Mother, my husband is not a person who does not recognize his six relatives, he has already sent elite soldiers and strong generals to Beijing to protect his father.
The husband concluded that his father should live a good life now, but the husband didn't know why he didn't see the elite soldiers who carried out the mission back for a long time. ”
Zhou Hou was not calm, and clasped Kunxing's hand and asked eagerly: "Jiao'er, did the king of Nan really send people and horses to the Daming Jingshi to rescue the driver?" Does he really want your father alive? Why is that? It stands to reason that Daming has no emperor without your father, and it is more logical for the king of the south to enter the Central Plains! ”
Zhou Houcheng was insightful, and pointed out the key point of the problem, it stands to reason that King Nan did not attack and kill Chongzhen, and it was not a matter of self-infliction to save him.
Kun Xing said proudly: "My husband is a good man who stands up to the sky, he disdains and falls into the well, he is more willing to save people in danger."
He has always insisted on speaking with strength, he thinks that he will bring a good life of abundant food and clothing to the people of the Ming Dynasty, and wants his father to see the Ming Dynasty under his governance, Haiqinghe Yan is rich and strong. ”
Zhou Hou will be suspicious, but it is inconvenient to refute at this time, she echoed: "The ability of the Southern King to govern the country is obvious to all, and the people of the Ming Dynasty are blessed to be able to meet this Ming Jun." ”
Kun Xing winked mischievously and asked, "Queen Mother, knowing that your father is alive, does it still count if you supported my family's prince to ascend the throne just now?" ”
"This ......" Empress Zhou pondered for a moment and said firmly: "I still support King Nan as the emperor of the new Ming Dynasty, if I can see your father, I will also strongly persuade Your Majesty to give up the throne and give up to King Nan." There's just one thing I can't worry about. ”
"Mother, my daughter knows what you are not worried about, yesterday my husband personally promised to treat my father and several brothers well, and I can trust my husband's character."
"Alas! How much can character be worth in front of the throne? There is no emperor in history who has been forced to give up Zen to die a good death! ”
"People are watching the sky, the husband should have thought about the pros and cons of this matter if the father really gave up the throne, I believe he will not do anything to the father."
"Now your father and the crown prince are under the protection of King Nan, and so are we, there is really no capital to negotiate conditions, as long as I can ensure the safety of the family, I will do my best to persuade your father and emperor, and you must also persuade King Nan not to unload the mill and kill the donkey!"
Zhou Hou looked particularly helpless at this time, and her daughter asked her to express her position today, although it is not a forced palace, it is almost the same, and now the throne is not important, the question is which emperor who has lost the throne lives freely.
"Mother, don't worry, in history, Song Taizu treated the descendants of Zhou Shizong Chai Rong well after the yellow robe was added, and the land area of the new Ming Dynasty was more than five times larger than that of the Song Kingdom, and the mind of the Southern King was comparable to Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyi."
"Yes! The king of the south has a reputation for benevolence, and he should be able to accommodate the next deposed emperor of the Ming Dynasty who is not a threat. ”
Having said that, Zhou Hou's voice still revealed loneliness. Kun Xing didn't know how to comfort him when he saw it, and held his mother's hand tightly to accompany her to tears.
In the flagship conference cabin, Huang Sheng, a conspirator who was listening to Hexiang's announcement of today's schedule, was interrupted by the report of his own soldiers.
