Nearly two days after the death of the apocalypse, the white sails finally fluttered in the palace and there was a cry. Before this, the future emperor Zhu Youzhen had been too sad and retreated to the side hall to rest. Zhu Youzhen walked away for almost a quarter of an hour, and Zhang Ke, the king of Anton, whispered a few words to Jiu Qiansui, and also walked into the side hall.

"Why?"

Zhu Youzhen asked with a slashed face in the first sentence, he really couldn't understand, Wei Zhongxian faked the edict, destroyed the ancestral system, and monopolized power, these Zhang Ke can not care, but in the edict, he actually drove Zhang Ke to the southwest to quell the rebellion, the dignified King Anton, the first hero with heavy troops, actually succumbed to the eunuch in front of him, it was simply ridiculous!

There may be only one explanation, that is, Zhang Ke and Wei Zhongxian colluded, they were simply singing double reeds, coaxing themselves, and wanted to turn themselves into puppet emperors, not even as good as the imperial brothers!

There is an absolute relationship between people's personality and early experience, Zhu Youzhen's father is the sad Guangzong Zhu Changluo, and he can't protect himself when he is a father, let alone a son.

finally looked forward to his father and brother becoming emperors one after another, but he caught up with the fierce 9,000-year-old to control the government, it can be said that from the day he was sensible, Zhu Youzhen lived in trembling.

In this kind of environment, people are often suspicious, biased, inferior and conceited, unable to see themselves clearly, and have a strong sense of ambition, but they will not be able to grasp the proportion......

The weakness of his character was exposed in the seventeen years of Zhu Youzhen's rule, and directly sent Daming and himself to a dead end. Now he is suspicious of Zhang Ke, and his suspicion is like a weed, growing wildly and irrepressibly.

"King Anton, Lone entrusted his life to you, is this how you repay Lone?"

Faced with an angry question, Zhang Ke had a somewhat self-conscious posture, picked up a cup of tea from the table, and drank it dry.

Zhu Youzhen's eyes almost fell, since he entered the palace. He cried so much that his throat was smoking, but he didn't even dare to drink a little water, for fear of being assassinated, following in the footsteps of the apocalypse, Zhang Ke dared to drink water generously, could it be that he was really mixed with Wei Zhongxian?

"Hehe, Your Majesty, I'm afraid you don't dare to drink water, please rest assured, there are loyal people in the palace. Father-in-law Zhang and Gonggong Hong, who were the celebrants, had already arranged manpower. If you don't have these teacups, if there is a small green line on the rim, you can drink it with confidence, if not, you don't know. “

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he hurriedly picked up the teacup in front of him, looked carefully, and sure enough, there was a very thin and tiny green line at the place where the dragon and phoenix danced at the mouth of the cup. See here. Zhu Youzhen's flustered heart suddenly quieted down a lot.

"King Anton, you, you mean there are our people in the palace?"

Zhang Ke nodded and said, "Your Majesty, if there is no one in the palace." Even if Weichen had a hundred guts, he didn't dare to bring His Majesty in. ”

Before every war, Zhang Ke would ask the staff officers to repeatedly deduce, and changing the dynasty was 10,000 times more dangerous than fighting. How could Zhang Ke not be fully prepared.

It's just that he also lied to Zhu Youzhen, and the eunuchs and palace maids who secretly protected Zhang Ke and Zhu Youzhen were not arranged by Zhang Ye.

As early as when Tianqi ascended the throne, Zhang Ke knew that Lao Wei would definitely take power. The inner court must have recruited eunuchs on a large scale. Therefore, Zhang Ke sent people in advance and adopted a large number of nameless whites.

The so-called nameless white is an unlucky egg who was cut and not selected by the palace. Later generations belittled the eunuchs to the point that there was no additional Cheng dù, when there were actually eunuchs, this was still an iron rice bowl, as long as you entered the palace, you would not worry about eating and drinking, and if you mixed it a little better, you could be a prison army everywhere, a mine supervisor, a tax supervisor, a river, a weaving, etc., if the ancestral tomb smoked and entered the celebrant eunuch, it could be compared with a university scholar.

Many desperate people do not have the temptation of the Sunflower Treasure Book, so they resolutely cut a knife and are ready to wait for the palace to choose someone. But not everyone wants the 100,000 eunuchs in the palace, and as a result, a large group of nameless people who have nowhere to go have been created.

Zhang Ke arranged manpower to secretly supply these people, and when Lao Wei took power and the inner court replenished blood, they were all sent to the palace.

At present, there are at least two or three thousand such little eunuchs in the palace, their status is not high, but they are better at hearing and seeing, and they keep in touch with the outside of the palace at all times.

Wei Zhongxian closed the Forbidden City, he could block the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, but he couldn't stop Zhang Ke's eyes, if he was not completely sure, the life-sparing King Anton would not rush in and be a loyal minister and filial son.

Zhu Youzhen frowned, and asked suspiciously: "Since there are people in the palace, why is Wei Zhongxian perverse, and King Anton can't strike angrily, Kuang Fu Sheji?" ”

Zhang Ke gave a deep salute and said: "Your Majesty, you are the only one who can rectify the society, and you are the only one who can reorganize the world!" The most urgent thing at the pass is to let His Majesty ascend the throne and become the supreme of the Ninth Five. Whether Wei Eunuch is overbearing, seizing power, or even denigrating Weichen, it is not worth mentioning, as long as you ascend the throne, it doesn't matter how many grievances Weichen suffers. Don't forget, the Forbidden City is still locked down at this time! ”

Speaking of emotion, Zhang Ke's eyes were red, tears were surging, and his chest fell together, extremely excited.

More excited than Zhang Ke was Zhu Youzhen, he was still suspicious of Zhang Ke just now, and when he heard this explanation, the clouds in the sky suddenly dispersed, and all that was left was moving.

That's right, Wei Zhongxian controls the Forbidden City, and if he falls out with him, he is worried about his life, and it will even affect his ascension to the throne.

Zhang Ke's unusual obedience was all to ensure Zhu Youzhen's safety, and in order for him to ascend the throne obediently, he didn't even complain about being driven to the southwest! Throughout the ages, what loyal servant has been able to do this?

I used to hear some rumors that Zhang Ke had a heart of disobedience, but can a minister who thinks about the royal family so much be a traitor?

Zhu Youzhen fell to the ground and felt that he had misunderstood Zhang Ke, and suddenly tears welled up in his eyes and he cried his nose.

"King Anton, you are loyal, I see it in my eyes, but according to the situation in front of you, Wei Zhongxian controls all the internal and external powers, and even denounces you. If I fall into his hands, isn't he a puppet emperor who can't even save his life? In this way, what does it feel like for me to be this emperor! ”

"Hehe, don't worry about it." Zhang Ke instantly became the commander of the three armed forces who was strategizing.

"Wei Zhongxian is just a mere eunuch, and he has done a lot of evil, how can he convince the public! Inside and outside the palace, no number of loyal people will allow him to cause trouble for the dynasty. As long as His Majesty temporarily obeys Wei Gelding, coaxes him to lift martial law, and allows the ministers to meet His Majesty in person, communicate internally and externally, and then take down Wei Eunuch in one fell swoop, with a snap of his fingers. ”

Zhang Ke said it easily, but Zhu Youzhen had long been full of Wei Zhongxian's unparalleled power and many minions, and now he was holding the edict of the Apocalypse, which was simply invincible.

"Alas, it's all the misfortune of the Ming Dynasty, and this power traitor. The inner court guards are all his minions, and the Beijing camp and the military department are in their hands, if even King Anton is driven away, ask the world, who can deal with Wei Eunuch? ”

Looking at Zhu Youzhen's pitiful little appearance, Zhang Ke even admired the nine thousand years old, of course, it was limited to admiration, and Zhang Ke would never be soft when it was time to do it.

"Your Majesty, although let the minister go to the southwest to quell the rebellion, but tens of thousands of horses and horses can not set off in a day or two, the grain and grass and military supplies must be prepared, and the swords, guns and weapons must also be purchased, and the minister can delay for at least a month, in this month, as long as His Majesty ascends the throne, an order, the minister is willing to be a sword, in an instant, eliminate Wei Gelding, and it will be clear and clear!"

"Really?"

Zhu Youzhen's eyes widened excitedly, for fear that Zhang Ke would joke with him.

"Your Majesty, as long as you officially ascend the throne, you will be able to hold the name of righteousness, as the so-called name is right, and it is not a problem to be small."

While he was talking, suddenly there was a commotion outside, Zhang Ke and Zhu Youzhen both shut up, and at this time Wei Guangwei walked in from outside, only to see his forehead covered with sweat.

"King Anton, Gonggong Zhang is dead."

"Which Father-in-law Zhang?" Zhang Ke chuckled in his heart.

"Which other father-in-law Zhang can it be, naturally it is Zhang Ye, the palm print of the celebrant supervisor, he heard that the saint died, he was overly grieved, and he hanged himself!"

Everyone is a human spirit, just like a suspicious edict, Zhang Ye's death also makes everyone suspicious.

According to the so-called edict, it is assisted by the celebrant supervisor, and it stands to reason that he Wei Zhongxian is just the second person, and it is Zhang Ye who is the palm seal of the Eight Classics. But now that Zhang Ye is dead, there is no one to contain Wei Zhongxian, which is really a good means!

Obviously, the nine thousand years old has already cultivated the Sunflower Treasure Book to the full level, serving the new monarch, eradicating dissidents, and not delaying, according to this trend, Wei Zhongxian is striding towards the Emperor Taishang.

"Master Wei Gonggong has something to ask for." Li Chaoqin's smug voice came from outside.

Zhu Youzhen's face changed suddenly, Zhang Ye died, and the inner court was all Wei Zhongxian's people, so Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but be afraid.

"Your Majesty, be patient!" Zhang Ke gave Zhu Youzhen an encouraging look, Zhu Youzhen bit his lower lip, nodded, and returned to the hall with Wei Guangwei by his side.

……

As the saying goes, the country can't be without a king for a day, after the news of the apocalypse died, according to the rules, hundreds of officials went to the table three times to persuade them, and the new monarch "reluctantly" accepted. After deliberation between the Cabinet and the Ministry of Rites, four days were selected as auspicious days for enthronement.

All of them are in full swing, preparing quickly.

Wei Zhongxian took advantage of Zhang Ye's death to completely clean the inner court, and replaced them with his own people, Wei Liangqing also took the Jingying in his hands, plus the factory guards, and even Shuntianfu, all of them were replaced by his people.

At this point, the capital fell into the hands of Wei Zhongxian, and in the face of his actions, Zhu Youzhen maintained unprecedented patience, did not say a word, and tossed him casually.

In this way, little by little, the time came to officially ascend the throne.

On the twenty-first day of the first month, from the morning up, Zhu Youzhen was surrounded by officials and eunuchs to worship the Apocalypse of the Zi Palace, followed by the sacrifice of the ancestors and ancestors, after knocking dizzy, led by Wei Zhongxian, came to the Zhongji Palace, accepted the congratulations of the hundred officials, announced the change of Yuan Chongzhen, in the voice of long live long live, long live long live, Emperor Chongzhen finally sat on the throne.

The following days were extremely difficult, and finally waiting for the end of the one-month national funeral, Chongzhen couldn't wait to give his will, and the first early dynasty of the new dynasty came as scheduled.

Officials above the seventh rank in Beijing, regardless of civil and military, including the princes, all gathered in front of the noon gate at dawn and chatted in twos and threes.

Just when everyone arrived, a few war horses flew from the main road, and everyone looked at the knight on the horse, and was stunned for a moment.

"Why are they here?" (To be continued......)
