After speaking, Zhu Youzhu closed his eyes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Ru thought he was going to take a break for a while, and he didn't relax holding his hand.

Li Minghai suddenly sighed: "Wenxuan, don't look at it, Your Majesty... Let's go. ”

Zhang Ruru was struck by lightning, and his mind exploded, as if he was about to explode, his eyes rolled and he collapsed directly to the ground.

Next, Li Minghai shouted loudly, and then the chamberlain hurriedly carried Zhang Ru out, pulled out all the silver needles on Zhu Youzhang's body, and began to bathe and change clothes for the emperor.

Because the emperor's body began to deteriorate very early, everything was very well prepared, and some of the responsible persons who should have it were also available, so Zhu Youzhu did not lie on the dragon couch for a long time.

On the second day, the news of the emperor's death was announced to the world, and hundreds of civil and military officials listened to Liu Jian, the first assistant minister of the cabinet, read the edict in the Taihe Palace.

Zhu Youzhu explained in his edict that Zhu Houzhao was the crown prince and was enthroned as emperor after the funeral. Because the crown prince is not very old, several ministers and assistants in the cabinet must assist the government.

However, unlike the ministers of the later Qing Dynasty, they did not have so much authority to influence certain actions of the emperor, and only when the emperor was in danger, they were obliged to use their connections to solve these problems.

In the Ming Dynasty, when there was no dictatorship of military generals, no relatives interfering in politics, and no powerful ministers to disrupt the country, it seemed that as long as the power of the cabinet was controlled, it was basically equivalent to the power of the whole country.

The edict also strictly stipulated that no feudal king was allowed to enter Beijing to mourn and not leave his fiefdom, otherwise he would be punished as a conspiracy, and the nine-sided million-dollar border army and the Beijing army could send troops to conquer at any time.

This largely suppressed the ambitions of those vassal kings, and also largely consolidated the foundation for the crown prince's accession to the throne.

However, the content of the last few articles of the edict about Zhang Wenxuan, the Duke of Dingguo, caused an uproar in the government and the opposition.

First, no one can be stopped from staying in Dingguogong, and it is entirely up to Dingguo Gong to make his own decisions. If he wants to go, he can choose 300 acres of beautiful land within the territory of the Ming Dynasty to retreat, and no one is allowed to set foot within a radius of ten miles, otherwise he will be punished for conspiracy.

Once the Duke of Dingguo is retired, no civil or military general may impeach the Duke of Dingguo, otherwise he will be dismissed.

Within the three generations of the Duke of Dingguo, as long as there is no conclusive evidence of the crime of rebellion, the court will not ask.

Once the Dingguo Gong remains, no one is allowed to attack the Dingguo Gong for any reason, and even if the violator is really involved, the person who attacked the offender will be beheaded first.

Second, the royal gift of a gold medal for avoiding death, Xu Jingbing 100,000 and Dingguo Gong deployed, and 100,000 elite soldiers could control the most advanced firearms in the imperial court. On the occasion of non-life and death, no one may mobilize the Dingguo Gong Guard for any reason.

Third, the imperial gift of a military talisman, Dingguo Gong and a family of people and horses are not allowed to suppress anyone, the soldier talisman can be in the Ming Dynasty when the Ming Dynasty is in danger, mobilize half of the 12 regiments and battalions in Beijing. This article shall be invalidated after the death of Dingguo Gong.

Zhu Youzhu used his own way to leave countless back roads for Zhang Ru after his death, and also held up a huge protective umbrella for Zhang Ru.

Some people wanted to jump out on the spot to refute, but seeing that several cabinet elders were silent, the six Shangshu looked at the nose and nose, and Zhu Yong, the prince of the country, didn't seem to hear it.

The human emperor has just died, and if you dare to say something contrary to the edict at this time, it can only be self-defeating.

After three days of resting, the edict was issued all over the country, and then buried in Tailing.

On the day of the funeral, hundreds of thousands of people in the capital sent each other off, and they automatically wrapped white cloth around their foreheads and put on sackcloth on their bodies.

These ordinary people may not have the opportunity to meet His Majesty the Emperor who has worked hard for the Ming Dynasty, but they know that without His Majesty the Emperor, there would be no good life today. So they used their own way to send this Ming king on his last journey.

If there is a soul in this world, Zhu Youzhu is in the spirit of the sky, and when he sees this scene, he should be able to smile at Jiuquan.

Zhang Ru personally helped the spirit, until the emperor's coffin was sent into the Tailing, and everyone else had left, and he still stayed outside the mausoleum and refused to leave.

"Youjiao, what do you say people live for?"

"I don't know, my mother said that people live to make the people around them live better. No, it should be the mother concubine, and the father will beat people. ”

"But now our life is not easy at all, Your Majesty likes that demon concubine too much."

"My father cries a lot! I can't let go of my obsession anyway. Brother Tiger, you said that the mother concubine is gone, where did you go? Will she ever come back? ”

"Yes, she will come back, and when Youzhu grows up, she will come back."

"Oh, then I have to grow up quickly and see my mother early."

"Yes, we all have to grow up quickly, only when we grow up, can we have the ability to protect the people we need to protect."

With the conversation of his childhood coiled in his mind, Zhang Ru leaned outside the mausoleum, his eyes blank.

He can cry, he has been crying these days, he doesn't want to cry at all now, he always recalls the bits and pieces of the past.

In the past, when Zhu Youzhu was alive, he was tired of running for his life, in order not to overshadow the master, but to protect the people around him.

Now that Zhu Youzhu is dead, he suddenly feels empty in his heart, like something is missing, and he can't fill it with anything else.

"Youjiao, after you leave, Brother Tiger doesn't know what to do." Zhang Ru muttered.

The two soldiers in charge of guarding looked at Zhang Ru from a distance, they had two tasks, one was explained by Li Dongyang before leaving, and the other was explained by the queen mother, and Dingguo Gong could not be allowed to enter the mausoleum.

The former was afraid that Zhang Ru would be too sad, and the latter was afraid that Zhang Ru would follow Zhu Youjiao.

Whether from a private or public point of view, Zhang Yaoyao doesn't want Zhang Ru to have any mistakes. For her son Zhu Houzhao, a living Zhang Wenxuan is much more useful than a dead Dingguo Gong.

"What kind of feelings do you say can make grandpa sad so much!" One of the soldiers sighed.

Another soldier shook his head, his face solemn: "We little people may not understand it very well!" Grandpa usually treats us well, but I don't know if Grandpa will continue to live after His Majesty is gone. ”

The soldier who spoke first said puzzledly: "Doesn't Your Majesty have an edict?" ”

Soldiers who could not read a single word could not understand the contents of the edict, but they heard some from others.

The soldier who spoke afterwards said, "Who knows! Alas... Anyway, this kind of thing is not something we can interfere in, just take care of the mausoleum. ”

The people responsible for guarding the mausoleum are generally soldiers who are very poor in the army, similar to the distribution, but not as painful as the distribution of Lingnan. (To be continued.) )
