Chapter 4: The Son of Heaven Dies

Although Xiong Wencan doesn't know much about navigation, at least he knows the way, and it is obviously much faster to take the sea route than to pass the news by land.

After this incident, Xiong Wencan couldn't help but rely on Xiaotian a little more, at least in the future, with Yu Xiaotian's way, he can get the news from the Jingshi side faster, which is an extremely important thing for them to release the big people, the fast hand is slow, if there is anything good in the Jingshi, if the news is received early, it will definitely be arranged early, if it is late, it is estimated that the will not be able to eat hot.

So based on this alone, he had to look at Yu Xiaotian even more, this time Yu Xiaotian's news to him was too timely, although the saint is still young today, under normal circumstances, there will be no death, but the world is unpredictable, in this world, in all dynasties, how many emperors did not die young, and there are really not many emperors who can really live very old.

Now that the news of the emperor's serious illness comes from Jingshi, then maybe there may really be such an unexpected situation, you must know that the death of the emperor of the Lu Dao generation is definitely a major event in a dynasty, and there are countless variables involved.

What's more important is that today's saint, since inheriting the unification, over the years, has not given birth to a prince, in case the saint dies, then who will inherit the unification next, there are big variables in this.

Although Xiong Wencan was an official in Shandong before, he always kept a close eye on the affairs of the capital, and deliberately bought a house in the capital, and arranged for a reliable family member to stay in the capital to inquire about what happened in the capital for him, so he naturally knew more about the royal affairs.

When he learned the news that the saint was seriously ill this time, he would naturally make an analysis, and finally he gradually set his eyes on the current saint's younger brother, the current king of letters, Zhu Youzhen, and Yu Xiaotian seemed to have pointed out this king of faith in his letter.

So Xiong Wencan after thinking about it, he decided to send someone to the Beijing Division, first find a way to contact this letter king, no matter whether the current saint can pass this hurdle or not, this investment is still very necessary, not afraid of 10,000 in case, if he bets on the right treasure, it will undoubtedly play a good role in his future career.

Think about it, if you can be an official and be a governor in such a position, which one will be a fool? It can be said that the people who can do it to this level are all some human spirits, and they should be very sensitive to officialdom, Xiong Wencan is of course no exception, otherwise he would not have left a strong mark in history, although his fate in history is really a bit sad, but this does not mean that his IQ is much lower than anyone, just because of his ability, plus his mouth is a little cheap, which eventually led to him because of the appeasement of Zhang Xianzhong, and then Zhang Xianzhong rebelled again, so that he was arrested and beheaded.

But Yu Xiaotian in this matter, did not worry too much about anything, now although he knows the trend of the future Ming Dynasty situation best, but now he is just a small general, although in the Ming military system, it can be regarded as a bit of status, in Fujian is also a person who can stomp his feet to call the wind and rain, but if it is placed in the entire Ming Dynasty, he is such a general, he is really just a small shrimp that can not be smaller.

With his current status, if he wants to take the opportunity to run to the future Emperor Chongzhen, it is really not enough to see, even if he is reluctant to stammer, with Chongzhen's suspicious character, it is really not necessarily a good thing or a bad thing.

Yu Xiaotian now wants to concentrate on secretly developing and expanding his strength, and when the world is in turmoil in the future, he will lead the army to chase the Central Plains.

Otherwise, one day, the great Emperor Chongzhen, who was forced by the Tartars or Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, suddenly remembered that he was such a number one person, and asked him to lead his troops north to be a thug for him, it would be very sad!

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian will sell this cheap to Xiong Wencan, hoping that Xiong Wencan can seize this opportunity and be able to rise to prominence, if nothing else, Xiong Wencan will not stop at the post of governor of Fujian, according to the development of the original process of history, Xiong Wencan will be promoted to the governor of Liangguang in the next few years, with his achievements in Fujian.

And what he needs now is to help Xiong Wencan, take this step, as long as Xiong Wencan can follow the normal development and become the governor of Liangguang, he can use Xiong Wencan's strength to extend his tentacles to Guangdong, Guangxi and other places in the future.

You must know that the richest area in the current world of Lu Dao, in addition to Nanzhili and Zhejiang, is probably the richest and most stable in Guangdong, once he can run Guangdong in the future and use it as his rear base, then at least the source of grain can be guaranteed to a certain extent.

However, if he wants to extend his tentacles into Guangdong and Guangxi with the help of sea power, I am afraid that he will not be able to do enough at present, at best, he can only sweep the two seas and become the real overlord of the Ming Sea, but if he wants to develop into the interior of Guangdong, it is estimated that there are still great variables.

Therefore, he needs Xiong Wencan to help him now, Xiong Wencan wants to use him to achieve some political achievements, so why hasn't he also used Xiong Wencan to achieve himself?

In the following days, Yu Xiaotian was like an audience, quietly watching the various news from the Jingshi.

All the news is indicating that the historical giant car does not seem to have deflected too much, and is rolling away in the same direction.

In August, just after Emperor Xizong fell into the water and was rescued from illness, Emperor Zhu Youxiao also seemed to feel that his body was a little unable to hold on, and felt that time may be running out, and he suffered from not giving birth to a son to inherit his throne.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, he recruited Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, into the palace......

On August 22, Emperor Xizong finally failed to survive and died in the Qianqing Palace, carrying his unfulfilled dream and driving west.

And the king of letters, Zhu Youzhen, that is, Emperor Chongzhen, two days later, by the will of his brother Xizong Emperor Zhu Youxiao, ascended to the world, became the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and announced to the world, the whole country was destroyed.

This time, the news of the emperor's death and the new emperor's accession to the throne, the imperial court used the fastest speed to summon all places, so even Yu Xiaotian received the news, and he only had time to send it to Xiong Wencan, and he didn't have time to make more reactions and arrangements.

Yu Xiaotian thought about it for a while, and finally decided to go to Fuzhou City in person to meet Xiong Wencan, and by the way, he also brought Lin Yiyang to Fuzhou City to see Xiong Wencan.

When he hurried to Fuzhou City, Xiong Wencan didn't seem to have recovered from this shocking news, with a sad look on his face.

Xiong Wencan felt a little surprised by Yu Xiaotian's sudden visit, although he was very respectful to him since Yu Xiaotian was caressing, but after all, he was the governor of a province, and he usually had to stay in Fuzhou City, and Yu Xiaotian, as a heavy general, naturally had to stay in the land under his jurisdiction, and the two of them usually only sent people to exchange news with each other, and they never met directly.

This time, Yu Xiaotian came without summoning him, which made Xiong Wencan a little surprised, so he put down what he was doing and recruited Yu Xiaotian into his outer study.

After Yu Xiaotian took Lin Yiyang into the outer study, he saluted Xiong Wencan together, and briefly said that after the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Xiong Wencan ordered someone to serve tea, and all the idle people on the left and right retreated.

Xiong Wencan is not a stupid person, he knows very well that at this time, Yu Xiaotian suddenly rushed from Weitou Bay to Fuzhou City, and there must be quite important things to discuss with him, so these things are not easy for too many people to know, so he drove his subordinates out of the outer study, and ordered that no one should approach the outer study.

"Xiaotian, I don't know what is important if you don't come here to see the old man this time? There are no outsiders here, so you might as well just say it! When Xiong Wencan saw that there were no outsiders, he opened his mouth to ask Xiaotian, but he didn't hide it, as if he treated Yu Xiaotian as a confidant.

And Yu Xiaotian did not become presumptuous because of Xiong Wencan's attitude, he still pretended to be cautious and cautious, and said to Xiong Wencan respectfully: "Lord Qiqi, my subordinates have recently received some news from Jingshi, and I didn't pay attention to it originally, but my subordinate Lin Zanhua has noticed some things from these news, which may be beneficial to adults!" This kind of thing is not of great use to his subordinates, but for Lord Futai, I am afraid it will be helpful!

So after thinking about it, the subordinates decided to come rashly to meet the adults, regardless of whether the adults adopted it or not, it can be regarded as the subordinates have done some of their best! ”

After Xiong Wencan heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, during this time, he was the most sensitive to the news in the capital, and specially arranged for someone to rush to the Jingshi to sit in town, collect all the news about the court, and send the news back to him as soon as possible.

Moreover, through Yu Xiaotian's performance some time ago, he had already determined that Yu Xiaotian had a faster way to obtain the news from the Jingshi, even more complete than the information collected by his personnel in the Jingshi, so today's Yu Xiaotian said this, which immediately attracted his enough attention.

Yu Xiaotian saw that there was no one else left and right, and he no longer hesitated, because this matter was very important, although on the surface, it had little to do with him, but in essence, it still had a lot to do with him.
