At the end of June, the great changes in the southwest were continuing to ferment, and the imperial court had nothing to do. Chen Wen's envoy arrived at this time, and Yongli seemed to be pressed by a boulder, and even breathing became a little difficult. Seeing this, Yongli hurriedly sent a eunuch who was waiting by his side to send an edict to the Jin Palace, asking Li Dingguo to come immediately, and at the same time instructed another eunuch to let Chen Wen's envoy go to the side hall to rest for a while.

Li Dingguo received the holy decree and hurried from the house. When he arrived, Zhang Jun had been waiting in the side hall for a while, Yongli was neither willing to be summoned without the presence of Li Dingguo's pillar, nor did he want to show his cowardice in front of Chen Wen's people, so he had to order the eunuch to teach the envoy the etiquette of facing the king, and barely lasted until Li Dingguo arrived.

"Minister, the chief military officer of Yangzhou Town, the governor of the Left Army's Governor's Mansion and the governor of the Tongzhi Prefecture, Zhang Jun, the director of the Supervision Department of the Qi Palace, knock on my emperor, long live long live."

The general army of Yangzhou Town and the governor of the left army were appointed by the Ming court, although Zhang Jun never pursued the duties of such an official position, and even in the territory of the Ming army in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the capital of the five armies was already in name only, but when he met the Son of Heaven, this kind of face still had to be given to the imperial court. But even so, Zhang Jun did not omit his position in the Qi Palace, and he made his position clear.

"Flat."

Zhang Jun emphasized the identity of the head of the special department of the supervision department of the Qi Palace, and with the resume of the yamen of the Ministry of War, Yongli also knew that the chief soldier of Yangzhou Town was actually Chen Wen's first personal soldier captain, and he was the most confidant.

After glancing at Li Dingguo, Yongli signaled Zhang Jun to excuse himself, and then introduced Li Dingguo in the main hall to others, but Zhang Jun did not show anything unusual, and he was not even the slightest interested in this famous general. As if he were courteous, he turned his attention to Yongli, and his purpose was obvious.

"Qing, what's going on?"

Saluted Li Dingguo, Zhang Jun turned his head to look, although he didn't look directly, he could still see the son of heaven in front of him clearly.

Looking carefully, the person sitting on the dragon chair in the main hall can be described as dignified, looking at the depth of the emperor's appearance, even Zhang Jun's heart is also shocked, however, for a long time, he has been in contact with the privy secrets, Zhang Jun knows far more than others, although he is surprised by this atmosphere of the Son of Heaven at this moment, but once he remembers that the emperor who was nicknamed the long-legged son of heaven by Chen Wen has fled again and again since he ascended the throne, and his awe has also turned into disdain.

"Plainly has the appearance of a deputy emperor."

I thought so in my heart, but my face was still so respectful. Yongli asked this question, so Zhang Jun replied in accordance with the etiquette, neither humble nor arrogant: "Back to Your Majesty, on the orders of the king of my family, there is something specially sent to your Majesty to have a look." ”

As soon as these words came out, Yongli frowned, the things that Chen Wen sent at this juncture would definitely not be a good thing, but he simply didn't look at it like a turtle with a shrunken head, but he also lost his imperial bearing.

In this case, Yongli had to let the eunuch who was waiting next to him take over the brocade box in Zhang Jun's hand. But the brocade box was taken and sent to the imperial case, the eunuch was afraid that there was a hidden weapon or poison in it, and was about to open the box to check one or two, but was immediately stopped by Zhang Jun.

"Your Majesty, before the minister came, the king of my family once instructed that the contents of this brocade box are of great importance, and it is best for Your Majesty to check it in person. If others know, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the Heavenly Family. ”

Zhang Jun's move was very rude, and Li Dingguo glared angrily. But without waiting for Li Dingguo to reprimand, Yongli waved away the eunuch, and then said to Li Dingguo: "Aiqing, since it is the kindness of His Royal Highness the King of Qi, I still do what he said, and check it out in person." ”

Chen Wen's current power is not guilty of assassinating Yongli, especially when the situation is bound to get out of control. Yongli is timid, but he is not a fool, although he still took the brocade box with trepidation, but he still did not fake his hands to others, and directly opened the lid of the brocade box.

In the brocade box, there were no poisons or organs, but only two things that were clearly floating - a hard gold fold with bright yellow satin and a gold medal, nothing more.

However, when Yongli saw these two things, the sweat on his head burst out. These two things he also had when he was in King Gui's mansion, but they were very different from those in his hand, but they were like those carved out of a mold by his son, Zhu Cixuan, the prince of the Yongli Dynasty, and the difference was only the handwriting on it.

The gold medal was placed at the top, but Yongli did not pick it up, but opened the fold first, as if the cast gold medal was not as real as the fold written in cinnabar.

"Zhu Cizhi, biological mother Tian Guifei, Chongzhen for six years......"

At the beginning, there were only a few words, but when it landed, Yongli's hands shook in shock, and the fold also fell on the imperial case.

"Your Majesty?"

"I'm fine, don't come here!"

Yongli raised his hand, stopped Li Dingguo and the eunuch, and then trembled his hands, picked up the fold again, and looked at the words on the back.

“…… Jiaodong Factory, Jinyiwei and Tian Guifei each keep one copy and file it according to the regulations. ”

At the end, there was not much handwriting on it, but it was as heavy as the mountains in Yunnan and weighed on Yongli's heart. The shadow of the mountain peak obscured Yongli's vision, and it was dark in front of him, and Yongli immediately sat down on the dragon chair. But with the obstruction just now, Li Dingguo and the eunuch didn't dare to step forward, so they had to look at this cowardly son of heaven with concern, and Zhang Jun who gave him the brocade box with an angry glare, as if this could cause substantial damage to Chen Wen and the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Ming army groups represented by Zhang Jun.

"I'm okay, it's okay."

After a long time, Yongli finally recovered, but tears were already rolling in his eyes. Holding back the desire to cry bitterly, Yongli coughed lightly, and then spoke: "Aiqing retreats for the time being, I have to take a closer look for a while." ”

Hearing this, although it was strange that he had changed from "Qing" to "Aiqing" so quickly, Zhang Jun did not hesitate at all, and hurriedly bowed and retreated. But at this moment, Yongli on the dragon chair directly startled all the people present.

"I'm talking about King Jin!"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Li Dingguo was stunned for a moment, and then asked Yongli tentatively: "Your Majesty? ”

"Aiqing can't help me in this matter, so I'd better solve it myself."

"But ......"

Seeing that Li Dingguo was still a little hesitant about this, Yongli stood up and shouted: "Does King Jin want to watch me cry?!" ”

Tears were already pouring out, seeing this scene, Li Dingguo hurriedly bowed to the ground, saying that he didn't dare, and then withdrew from the hall. At the same time, the eunuch was also waved away by Yongli, and the only people left in the hall were Yongli sitting on the dragon chair and Zhang Jun standing in the main hall.

In the empty hall, it was dim and silent, and in such a space, some were nothing more than hiding their faces and weeping on the supreme throne. After a long time, the crying gradually subsided, and Zhang Jun, who had always looked down at the floor tiles, heard the sound of Yongli sorting out his makeup, and slowly raised his head.

"If I'm not mistaken, the owner of the jade and gold medal should be King Yong, yes or no?"

Yongli asked each other, Zhang Jun raised his hand to salute, and then replied: "Your Majesty Shengming is the fourth prince of the Lie Emperor. ”

"He's in Nanjing now?"

"No, His Royal Highness King Yongwang is now in Jinhua."

The monarch and the ministers asked and answered, and Yongli was also slightly relieved. The person they are talking about is none other than the male number one in the famous case of the third prince of Zhu in later generations, Zhu Cizhi, the fourth son of Emperor Chongzhen.

In the Jiashen Change, Zhu Cizhi was captured by Li Zicheng, and when Li Zicheng was defeated and fled from Beijing, he also fled with him. As a result, when Li Zicheng failed again, Zhu Cizhi went into exile and was taken in by a squire surnamed Wang and renamed Wang Shiyuan.

Five years later, the squire surnamed Wang died of illness, and the Wang family did not dare to take him in anymore, so Zhu Cizhi went to the people again, and then simply went to Jiangnan to become a monk, until a squire surnamed Hu in Yuyao found that his temperament was extraordinary and full of poetry and books, and persuaded him to enter the family, and this life in exile was temporarily over.

Historically, Zhu Cizhi was in the era of the Manchu Qing Dynasty's mass murder of the Ming Dynasty, but he could not be cautious in his words and deeds, leaked his identity several times, and was finally executed by Kangxi Lingchi at the age of seventy-five.

When Zhu Cizhi entered the Hu family in Yuyao, Chen Wencai had just gained a firm foothold in western Zhejiang, and was facing a huge threat from Hong Chengchou. Next, Chen Wen defeated Hong Chengchou and rose rapidly, and soon remembered that the third prince of Zhu seemed to be in Shaoxing, so he sent Zhang Jun to find it in person, and finally lived up to expectations.

However, this third prince of Zhu is not an idle figure, as Chen Wen's strength becomes stronger and stronger, Zhu Cizhi, who has always been under the surveillance of Zhang Jun, has come up with the intention of making his identity public, and as a result, he was discovered by the intelligence officers sent to the Hu family when he discussed with his father-in-law, so that Zhang Jun reported to Chen Wen, and then Chen Wen sent Zhang Jun to put the Hu family under house arrest, and the third person in the monitoring list of the supervision department is the "third prince Zhu" who is actually the fourth son of the emperor.

Today's Zhu Cizhi is just a fistless and courageless figure who has been placed under house arrest by the Superintendent Sterke, but for Yongli, he is the most terrifying existence in the world, because his identity represents nothing else, it is the foundation of Yongli as the Son of Heaven - legitimacy!

The so-called orthodoxy is first the death of the father and the succession of the son, and then the turn of the brother to the brother. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty when it lost Beijing was Chongzhen, and several of his sons were either dead or missing. In the next Nanming, Hongguang is more orthodox than King Zhilu because he is Chongzhen's cousin, although it is not the turn of his brother to reach his brother, but there is no reason for his nephew to pass on the throne to his cousin.

As for King Lu, Longwu, and Shaowu in the back, the legitimacy is even thinner, because the Fu Domain, Lu Domain, and Gui Domain at least have the same ancestor Wanli as Chongzhen, and they have to count above Zhu Yuanzhang.

The bloodline is like this, and Yongli's accession to the throne is more orthodox than that of King Lu and Shaowu, and it is also the most qualified to be the co-owner of the world after Chongzhen. However, the most orthodox premise is that Chongzhen will never be the heir, otherwise the brother will give way to the father and the son. As a result, Zhu Cizhi's sudden appearance is naturally the most unacceptable thing for Yongli.

Chen Wen's move is nothing more than to tell Yongli that he has always had the capital and right to overturn the table, and he has done so justifiably. As the Son of Heaven, Yongli doesn't even have the right to refute, and it is even more impossible for the world to deny the legitimacy of Chongzhen's son for the sake of him as Chongzhen's cousin.

Whether Chen Wen was to take care of the overall situation of the anti-Qing Dynasty or to leave it at the end as a killer weapon is never known, but this patience made him have to bow down.

"Is this nephew of mine okay?"

"Back to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yong is now eating well and sleeping well, and now he has a wife and heirs, and he always wants to go to Nanjing to meet the king of my family."

Zhang Jun's words are clearly threatening Yongli, but today, when the southwest is falling apart, the general trend is like this, coupled with his temperament, he can't say the slightest rebuttal.

There was silence in the hall for a moment, Yongli sighed, and then asked Zhang Jun, "What does His Royal Highness King Qi want me to do, and what can I give?" ”

The righteousness of the monarch and the minister no longer exists, and what Yongli can do for the family is nothing more than a naked transaction, nothing more. On the dragon chair, the decadence of the Son of Heaven and the traditional education made Zhang Jun's heart feel a trace of guilt, but once he thought of Chen Wen, the coach he swore allegiance to, this guilt quickly disappeared without a trace, and the rest was nothing more than a naked transaction.

"Prison Country!"

Hearing these two words, Yongli immediately understood what Chen Wen wanted. Today's Chen Wen is already the uncrowned king in the south half of the Yangtze River, with rights all over the southeast, and the disintegration of the Ming army in the southwest, the final beneficiary will definitely be his people, at least just what Yongli has heard, there are already several feudal towns ready to prepare, and even have indicated to Chen Wen that he wants to change the court.

Now Chen Wencha is nothing more than an emperor's throne, but this person is too stable, and he has always carried it out unswervingly after seeing the essence of the Qing exterminator who can be said to be the co-master of the world, even in the face of such temptations, he is not moved, and there is really no flaw at all.

"On the battlefield, with one enemy and two, or even one enemy and five, they dare to take the lead in the charge, but in the overall situation, they can be so arrogant and impatient, the king of Qi is talented, and he is a hundred times better than me, and I am not unconvinced."

Sighing, Yongli felt that the sighs he had sighed in his life didn't seem to be as much as today's, and even when he was under house arrest in Anlong by Sun Kewang, it couldn't be compared at all. When he turned around, Yongli took a deep breath and said to Zhang Jun: "I can promise your king, I just want to know now, what can your king give me?" ”

Halfway through the task, Zhang Jun breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Back to Your Majesty, the king of my family promised that he could give His Majesty two choices." First, the feudal Nanyang, located in Burma in the south of Yunnan, my king predicted that Burma would be in chaos within two or three years, and my king was willing to support a batch of money and grain to help His Majesty defeat the Burmese army. ”

"What about the other one?"

"Following the old practice of the former Song Dynasty and Zhou, I will serve Your Majesty and His Majesty's descendants as state guests and enjoy wealth forever. The king of my family said that His Majesty and the crown prince are not the temperament of the king of Zhongxing, a prince of peace, a life of wealth and glory, but more suitable for Your Majesty. Of course, the choice is in the hands of His Majesty, and my king has no intention of persecution, it is just a suggestion. ”

Chen Wen was reluctant to kill him, this was the best news Yongli had heard these days, but the grief was too heavy, and the heavy "I understand, but I need time to think about it." ”

"Your Majesty has time to think about it, and the king of my family is not in a hurry to ask for an answer, as long as His Majesty first issues the holy decree appointed by the prison state, and the rest can be said after the Northern Expedition is over."

………………

The holy decree was issued, Zhang Jun set off to leave, Li Dingguo walked into the hall full of grief and indignation, and loudly expressed to Yongli that he was willing to personally send troops to fight Chen Wen to the death.

"Aiqing, the destiny of heaven is no more."

"Your Majesty, the war is in chaos, how could King Yong escape to Zhejiang so coincidentally, and escape under his nose, don't you think this is likely to be a trap?"

Seeing this rogue prince like this, Yongli shook his head and smiled bitterly, he knew very well that this prince was now only able to compete with Chen Wen in the way of using troops, but when it came to politics, there was really nothing to say.

"It's not that I haven't thought about it, but Aiqing, do you think that even if he directly sent someone to me to find a position in the prison country, would I dare not give it to him?"

There is really no need to do this, even if Li Dingguo falls into silence. The two monarchs and ministers were speechless until it was late at night, when Li Dingguo got up to say goodbye and was about to go home, Yongli said a word faintly, but he didn't know whether he said it to himself, or to Li Dingguo, or to anyone else.

"In this way, at least it is better than the world falling into the hands of the Tartars. He is a Han person, and he will also be the master of the Han family, so he should abandon the dross of the Emperor Ming, leave those good things, and continue to carry forward the Chinese civilization, it should be like this. If this is the case, I can be regarded as having a statement about the ancestors and ancestors. ”
