Letting Wang Chengen and Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, escort the prince to see Zhou Yuji, was Zhu Youzhen's first step in dealing with Li Zicheng's imminent attack on the capital.

Regarding the loyalty of Wang Chengen and Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, Zhu Youxiao is naturally relieved, and he will not worry that these two will directly join the thieves on the road.

Both of them were martyrs in their original history.

Wang Chengen accompanied himself to hang himself on the coal mountain.

Gong Yonggu's family was martyred.

And Wang Chengen is the governor of Dongchang, who has four or five hundred good fighters, and Gong Yonggu, as a dignified horse, also has three or four hundred families, and it is more than enough to escort the prince Zhu Cihong to Ningwuguan.

What's more, now the land of Gyeonggi is still in the hands of Daming!

Even if the Ming Dynasty was twilight, a cadre of civil and military officials found out that the prince had absconded from the capital, and they did not dare to attack His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty.

In order to paralyze most of the civil and military officials who already had two hearts, Zhu Youzhen sent Li Mingrui and Ni Yuanlu, two officials who were relatively loyal and coincided with him, into the imperial prison.

But this does not mean that Zhu Youzhen really wants to treat Ni Yuanlu and Li Mingrui well.

In his opinion, these two people may be of great use in the future.

However, at this time, Fan Jingwen, the scholar of Dongge University, and Li Banghua, the imperial history of Zuodu, suddenly asked to see Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen knew that these two people also advocated moving south, and they were both loyal ministers who were martyred for the Ming Dynasty.

I came to see myself today, but I am afraid that it is also for myself to send Ni Yuanlu and Li Mingrui to prison.

"Announce them in!"

Zhu Youzhen gave an order and waited for the two to come.

Both of them also looked solemn, and they both knew that the Ming Dynasty was in danger, so they earnestly asked His Majesty the Emperor Zhu Youzhen to go to Nanjing as soon as possible, and temporarily begged for peace and waited for him.

But the situation in the court today also made them feel angry and heartbroken.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have already begun to prepare for the change of dynasty, and they dare to force His Majesty to punish Ni Yuanlu and Li Mingrui!

Because of this, the two did not speak again in the court later, but now the two still can't help but ask to see His Majesty the Emperor, and want to persuade Zhu Youzhen to move south to Nanjing again.

"Your Majesty, the thieves are powerful, and there are no soldiers to fight in Gyeonggi, so Wu Sangui is only afraid that he has already had two hearts, so he is reluctant to send troops to rescue, and he should move south quickly, otherwise it will be really difficult to protect the Daming Jiangshan Sheji!"

Fan Jingwen said with emotion.

Zhu Youzhen saw that he was so anxious, and his heart couldn't help but warm, at this time, he could still be anxious about himself, the last emperor, not to mention his ability, at least his loyalty was commendable.

"I don't know, it's just that there are a lot of obstructors in this city, today Ni Yuanlu and Li Mingrui's matter, you have also seen it, do the two Aiqing really think that I have the heart to punish them, I am not a faint king, who is loyal and who is traitorous can be seen, but how can I see it, I am almost about to become Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, how dare I have the slightest idea, if I go south, I don't know how many local civil and military officials have turned their hearts to thieves along the way, and the hearts of the people have been lost, if you want to go south to regain the hearts of the people, you have to think about it in the long run."

After Zhu Youzhen pretended to be sad and said, Fan Jingwen immediately knelt directly on the ground and cried:

"Your Majesty, it is the incompetence of the ministers that has made Your Majesty fall into this desperate situation, and let the first-class traitors enter the court! Your Majesty! ”

Fan Jingwen belongs to a type of person who is bookish, and his emotions are obvious and upright.

But it is precisely because of its sincere merits that it has won Zhu Youzhen's heart.

Li Banghua, on the other hand, has a relatively introverted and calm personality, and he has not said a word until now.

But Zhu Youzhen's words and Fan Jingwen's crying also made him feel the same way, and Li Banghua couldn't help but say:

"What Your Majesty said is very true, now that the Ming Dynasty is in danger, the strategy of moving south cannot be decided at will, but Weichen has an idea, Your Majesty can let the two princes of Yongwang and King Ding go to the vassal in advance, and the vassal king cannot stay in the capital for a long time, and the king must be a vassal immediately, and the ministers of the court and the central government cannot be stopped, because this is the ancestral system of the imperial court."

Fan Jingwen also suppressed his tears at this time, and suddenly realized that Li Banghua's idea might be good, and hurriedly echoed:

"Your Majesty, what the imperial history said is that let the two princes go to the south to become a vassal first, which can be regarded as a plan for the future if there is an accident, but the fiefdoms of King Yong and King Ding are in Henan, Shandong, this is the place of four wars, and there is no danger to defend, Your Majesty may wish to change the title of the two princes to the south of the Yangtze River to the south of the Yangtze River."

"Very good!"

Zhu Youzhen nodded approvingly.

In his opinion, letting Yongwang Zhu Cijiong and Dingwang Zhu Cihuan also go to their fiefdoms immediately to take up vassals, not only can their two sons also leave the capital in advance, even if there is really something wrong with the emperor and the crown prince Zhu Cihong, these two princes can also become the next generation of emperors, and they can also divert the attention of these officials who have the heart of defecting to the enemy, and ignore that His Royal Highness the Prince of Daming has quietly left the capital.

And in this way, his three sons will have the possibility of leaving the capital early, and no matter who goes to Nanjing in the future, they can become the next generation of emperors.

You must know that in the original history, because neither he nor his son succeeded in going south, the position of the prince has been unresolved, which made Nan clearly miss the opportunity to fight for a year, and even intensified the internal struggle in the court.

Now, he has sent his three sons to the south, undoubtedly to prepare for the great cause of the capital in the future, and the peace in the south!

As for whether the three sons will fight among themselves at that time, Zhu Youzhen can't care so much at this time, after all, now that the country is about to die, there is one who can run out of a legitimate successor to the throne.

So, Zhu Youzhen agreed to Fan Jingwen and Li Banghua's request, and asked Li Banghua to ask for the two vassal kings to become vassals immediately, and Fan Jingwen to ask for the two princes' domains to be resealed.

Zhu Youxiao immediately agreed to the performance of the two, and issued a holy decree that King Yong was renamed King Yue, stationed in Hangzhou, and King Ding was renamed King Ning, stationed in Nanchang.

These two places are important places south of the Yangtze River, and they are important bases for establishing a base camp to resist the Tartars in the future.

Of course, if he can escape from the capital, all these preparations are unnecessary.

But what Zhu Youzhen didn't expect was that when he issued the second holy decree, that is, King Yue immediately took Hangzhou and King Ning immediately became a domain in Nanchang and allowed him to establish 30,000 guards, Shiheng rejected Zhu Youzhen's holy decree in the middle of the matter.

In the Ming Dynasty, the regulation of petty officials holding big power was pursued, and although they were only officials from the seventh rank in the matter, they were real power officials with the right to refute, and they could directly refute the decrees of the cabinet and even His Majesty the Emperor.

And this light Shiheng is using the power in his hands to prevent Zhu Youzhen from taking the two princes of Yue and Ning into vassals.

Zhu Youzhen thought that these civil and military officials would only prevent him and the crown prince Zhu Cihong from leaving the capital for the south.

But he didn't expect that these ill-intentioned officials would even prevent their two princes from going to the south to become vassals.

"What presumptuous! The king of the Ming Dynasty has never been able to stay in the capital, and he must be able to become a vassal domain, so what is his intention, he dares to violate my Ming ancestral system, and the two kings are not allowed to be vassal! ”

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but be furious, and directly drank Guang Shiheng.

"Your Majesty is angry, at this time there is a shortage of soldiers outside the capital, thieves are rampant, the two princes are nobles, and they are still young, please ask Your Majesty to suspend their discussion of the domain!"

Guang Shiheng raised his eyebrows lightly, he naturally knew Chongzhen's thoughts.

But now that King Li Chuang is about to enter Beijing, the world is about to change the dynasty, if the two princes are allowed to go out of the city, there will be a few more remnants of the Ming Dynasty, and he naturally can't treat the new emperor Li Zicheng.
