Chapter 310: I Almost Didn't See My Companion! [2 more]
Han Kun's eyes narrowed and said: "Your Majesty, these chaotic ministers and thieves really deserve to be killed, as long as Your Majesty gives an order, the last general is willing to take down all these chaotic ministers and thieves and dedicate them to His Majesty's Palace!" ”
Zhu Houzhao shook his head slightly and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, let me see who wants to do wrong!" ”
At this time, a figure walked from the door of the big tent, dressed in a python suit, clothed in a big coat, and covered in wind and dust, and came straight to Zhu Houzhao who was sitting there: "Minister Chuyi, meet Your Majesty!" ”
To be honest, when he saw Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao was really stunned, although according to Dongchang's intelligence, Chu Yi arrived in Beijing within one or two days, but Zhu Houzhao really didn't expect Chu Yi to appear in front of him at this time.
The moment he saw Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but tremble slightly, his eyes couldn't help but be sour, and he said in a somewhat nasal trembling voice: "Big companion, I ...... I'll almost never see you again! ”
Chu Yi got up and nodded at Shao Yuanjie and Han Kun, the two of them looked at each other when they saw the Son of Heaven's reaction, bowed to Chu Yi and exited the big tent.
His eyes fell on Zhu Houzhao's bandaged leg, Chu Yi took a deep breath, stepped forward and stretched out his hand to put it on Zhu Houzhao's wrist, and the internal breath circulated in Zhu Houzhao's body for a week, and the worry on his face relaxed.
Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath, took Chu Yi's hand, and said with a little joy on his face: "When the eldest companion comes back, I will be relieved!" ”
Chu Yi sat down, looked at Zhu Houzhao and said: "It's the minister's negligence, I never thought that these people would be so frustrated, even gunpowder can be transported into the palace, if it weren't for Your Majesty's blessings, the ministers would regret it......"
Zhu Houzhao chuckled and said: "Don't blame yourself, don't say it's you, even I can't imagine that these people will be so crazy, but I'm not bad, I will plan and come directly to this army, I want to see, this Manchu Dynasty civil and military, who is loyal and who is traitor!" ”
Speaking of these, Zhu Houzhao had a bit of showing off on his face, as if he was telling Chu Yi whether his move was very wise.
Chu Yi is very familiar with Zhu Houzhao, and he knows what Zhu Houzhao means just by looking at Zhu Houzhao's expression.
With a chuckle, Chu Yi nodded and said, "Your Majesty's move is indeed a stroke of genius, which greatly exceeded those people's expectations, I'm afraid no one would have thought that Your Majesty would choose to leave the palace quietly." ”
Being praised by Chu Yi, Zhu Houzhao coughed lightly and said, "Actually...... In fact, I want to see who is loyal and who is traitor, and the other thing is that I am in the Forbidden City, they can send people to assassinate me, and even gunpowder can be transported into the palace, I am really worried that if they can't strike a blow, they will jump over the wall and assassinate me one after another. So I took the opportunity to leave the palace and hide in this army. ”
Chu Yi sighed lightly in his heart when he saw Zhu Houzhao's expression, to be honest, Zhu Houzhao, the emperor, was really aggrieved enough to do this.
The lord of a dignified country was assassinated in the palace, and he had to hide in the military camp to avoid the crisis.
But thinking of the madness of those people, Chu Yi really didn't dare to guarantee that Zhu Houzhao's worries would not happen.
These people first dealt with the queen, tried to murder the future prince, and then assassinated the Son of Heaven, the Forbidden City, which should be the most reassuring place for the Son of Heaven, is like an undefended place, and has been infiltrated by assassins one after another, not to mention Zhu Houzhao, who does not have much sense of security, I am afraid that if someone else is in the same situation as Zhu Houzhao, it will not be much better than Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he clenched his fists and said: "Big companion, I really want to kill, don't you know, not long ago, Xu Shang, the dignified Dingbian Bo, actually came to persuade Han Kun in person, and as soon as he made a move, he was a gift of three thousand taels, and at that moment I almost couldn't help kicking over the screen, and stabbed Xu Shang to death with a sword. ”
Saying that, Zhu Houzhao said with a little smile: "But in the end, I still held back, I am not in a hurry to kill them, I want to see what other comrades they have, this time I want to kill them all, kill him with a head, and the blood will flow like a river!" ”
Just listening to Zhu Houzhao's words, you can know how deeply Zhu Houzhao was stimulated this time.
Chu Yi nodded and said, "Since Your Majesty has this intention, the minister will definitely help Your Majesty dig out these people one by one to prevent future troubles!" ”
Zhu Houzhao flicked his long sleeves and said: "I will stay in this army for a few more days, so that they can play to their heart's content, otherwise, they will be very disappointed!" ”
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, this move is very wonderful, but there is one thing Your Majesty must know, people's hearts are unpredictable, Your Majesty can hide for a while, but if the time is long, even if it is fake, then it will come true, and loyalty will change with time." ”
Hearing Chu Yi say this, Zhu Houzhao was not a fool, and immediately realized that his move of luring the snake out of the hole seemed to be very good, but in fact it was also a hidden danger.
There are also many loyal ministers in the DPRK and China, although only a small number, but these people are indeed loyal to him.
But it is precisely because these people are loyal to the imperial court that if Zhu Houzhao does not show up for a long time, I am afraid that he will also go from missing to dead.
Seeing Zhu Houzhao's expression change, Chu Yi knew that Zhu Houzhao had already thought of the stakes.
His eyes fell on Chu Yi, Zhu Hou looked at Chu Yi and said, "Big companion, do you want me to return to the palace immediately?" ”
Chu Yi smiled slightly, shook his head slowly, and whispered a few words, Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he high-fived and exclaimed: "Good idea!" ”
Forbidden City, Xianxi Palace
As the residence of the Queen Mother, Xianxi Palace is an atmospheric, dignified and elegant place.
Later generations mentioned the residence of the Empress Dowager of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the first time it was Cining Palace was equivalent, but Cining Palace was built in the Jiajing period, which means that it will be at least a few decades before there is Cining Palace in the Forbidden City.
And now the residence of the Queen Mother is Xianxi Palace.
It is difficult to hide a tired look on the back of Mrs. Zhang, the Son of Heaven has been missing for three days, although it is said that the Empress Dowager Zhang sent someone to dig almost the entire Forbidden City three feet into the ground, but there is no trace of the Son of Heaven.
Even if he couldn't accept in his heart that the Son of Heaven was very likely to die in the fire of the Qianqing Palace, but there was no trace of the Son of Heaven, even the Queen Mother's heart gradually sank.
Gu Da entered the hall timidly, and when he saw the Queen Mother sitting there, his face showed a little bitterness and stepped forward to salute: "The slave has seen the Queen Mother." ”
The Empress Dowager Zhang suddenly raised her head, stared at Gu Dayong, and said with a bit of expectation in her eyes: "Gu Dayong, but there is news from the emperor?" ”
Gu Da shook his head bitterly.
The look of anticipation in the Queen Mother's eyes turned dim in an instant, and then she said angrily: "Send someone to find me, if you can't find the emperor, the mourning family will definitely not spare you!" ”
"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, great joy......"
Just when the Queen Mother was angry, a hoarse voice came, and then I saw Hu Yi with stubble on his face and a tired face, but he couldn't help but fall to the ground with infinite joy.
The Queen Mother couldn't help but stared at Hu Yi with her eyes lit up and said in a trembling voice: "Commander Hu Yi, is there news of the emperor?" ”
Hu Yi said with a happy face: "Back to the Queen Mother, the emperor has found it!" ”
The Queen Mother got up suddenly, the whole person was in too much of a hurry, her blood was surging, her eyes were black and she almost fell, but fortunately, the maid next to her stepped forward to support the Queen Mother.
After a while, the Queen Mother couldn't help crying with joy: "God bless my son, God bless my son!" ”
The news that the emperor had been found spread in the palace at once, and the news was immediately known to those who were always paying attention to the changes in the palace as if he had grown wings.
Mu Zhaigong, who had just visited a cabinet elder and returned to his residence, was in a very good mood, not all cabinet ministers were as ignorant of current affairs as Jiao Fang, at least although the cabinet elders he visited in the past two days said that they did not agree, but their attitude was obviously not exclusive to their proposals, and the reason why they did not agree was nothing more than waiting for the exact news in the palace to come out.
Once the news of the death of the Son of Heaven is confirmed, these cabinet elders will work together to ask the Queen Mother to elect a new monarch.
When he returned to his residence, several disciples who had followed him from Jiangnan to Beijing could see the joy on their teacher's face at a glance.
In the past two days, Mu Zhaigong's face has never been broken, as long as he sees the joy on his face, as a disciple, he knows that his teacher will definitely gain a lot when he goes out to visit the ministers of the court.
can be brought by Mu Zhai Gong, obviously these disciples are all disciples trusted by Mu Zhai Gong, besides, these disciples are all from Jiangnan gentry and maritime merchant families, and it can even be said that the family behind them is the leader of this plot to assassinate the Son of Heaven and try to change the world.
Xu Tong stepped forward and helped his teacher get out of the carriage, and said as he walked towards the courtyard: "Seeing that the teacher is not in a bad mood, I want to come here to visit Wu Shangshu, everything should go well." ”
Brushing his beard, Mu Zhaigong chuckled and said: "Wu Shangshu has a good friendship with the teacher, the old man went in person, Daoming has a strong relationship, he naturally knows what choice to make." ”
Xu Tong served Mu Zhaigong and sat down, and his own disciples served the tea.
Xu Tong said with a smile: "The teacher has been non-stop these days, visiting the important ministers of the court one after another, and most of the ministers are interested in the teacher's proposal, and now they are waiting for the news of the death of the Son of Heaven in the palace." ”
Mu Zhai Gong stroked his beard and nodded slightly: "Yes, now everything is ready and only the east wind is owed, as long as the news of the death of the Son of Heaven comes out, the overall situation can be decided!" ”
A disciple on the side said: "But there has been no news of the death of the Son of Heaven in the palace for a long time, but I don't know how long it will take!" ”
Mu Zhaigong's eyes narrowed, and he sneered and said: "The Queen Mother is a female streamer, she can stabilize the inner for a while, but she can't stabilize it for a lifetime, and if the Son of Heaven doesn't come forward for three days and five days, it's okay, once it's a long time, even the hundred officials won't agree!" ”
