The news of the emperor's death was not in a hurry to announce it to the public.

When Rong An and the two arrived in the palace, the palace was busy preparing for Zhu Yongxing's accession to the throne.

Zhao Ge came over to find Zhu Chengyi to talk and tell him some things.

It is said that not long after they left, the emperor's condition became worse and worse.

The reason is that as soon as they left on the front foot, the city gatekeeper on the back foot sent a not-so-good tip......

It turned out that it was Zhu Chengyi's wave of attacks in the early morning, and he easily destroyed more than 10,000 enemies. Not only did the pressure on everyone drop sharply, but they also saw that this battle was very easy, so it gave everyone an illusion: the enemy is not so strong, they are not so weak, maybe it is not as difficult to destroy the enemy as imagined......

"Easy? Relaxed? When Zhu Chengyi heard this, he raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes: "So, someone is making a mistake, ...... "It's not just a crime, it's a stupidity." And that person must be the emperor.

Zhao Ge was old and did not deny it.

He said bluntly:

It turned out that after listening to Zhu Chengyi's victory, the emperor insisted on taking advantage of the victory. Taking advantage of the high morale, while Zhu Yonghao was busy collecting the corpses of the rebels and preparing military supplies, he planned to make a sneak attack.

At that time, most of the Liaojiang soldiers in Dongcheng went to Nancheng to help, and the troops in Dongcheng were indeed slightly empty.

Moreover, the lookout reported that Zhu Yonghao had also left Dongcheng with about 3,000 people, and it seemed that he was in a hurry to go east......

The emperor intended to imitate Zhu Chengyi's old tricks in Dongcheng. He also bluntly said: If it is done, the siege of the capital will be lifted, and Zhu Yonghao will no longer be a threat.

The Cabinet wanted to oppose it, but there was no good reason for it.

The emperor directly signaled to Commander Liu and threw the token down......

The emperor's target was in Dongying, three miles away from the rebels.

10,000 forbidden troops are ready to be in place.

While the rebels were taking turns to have lunch, the east gate suddenly opened, and the forbidden army went out......

When I went to the other party's Dongying, I did have a chance to fight, but I didn't expect that at that time, I received the news that the lookout asked for a retreat.

It turned out that the number of anti-army Dongcheng was indeed small, and Zhu Yonghao did leave. But the reason why he left was to meet a force. To the east, a large force is coming. Undoubtedly, it should be the troops replenished by Liaojiang. The number of viewers is at least more than 10,000......

The forbidden army had to stop its operations and hastily evacuate. Now, the one who was chased and ran became the forbidden army.

After getting rid of the opponent's Dongying troops, it takes time to enter the city, and as a result, 10,000 forbidden troops went out, killing less than 100 enemies, but almost 1,000 people were broken.

With regard to the current strength of the capital in Beijing, these 1,000 people are undoubtedly a big loss in strength.

In addition, this battle also made the morale that had been accumulated in the early hours of this morning fall again.

At this moment, Zhu Yonghao's troops returned to 80,000 again, which made people feel even more tired.

Therefore, Zhu Chengyi's previous warning became a prophecy.

The victory in the early morning is really irreproducible, and Liaojiang will indeed have reinforcements arriving again and again!

The emperor didn't believe in evil, but in the end he was slapped in the face by reality.

As soon as he became angry, his qi and blood surged, and the emperor's pain flared up again.

Several people in the cabinet chattered, doubting that the one who could let Zhu Yonghao personally greet him would be the King of Liaojiang?

The emperor was in a hurry when he heard this, and his whole body hurt so much that his eyes were about to split, and he vomited two mouthfuls of blood one after another.

The imperial doctor took the pulse and shook his head secretly.

Your Excellency knows that you have invited the crown prince and grandson.

At that time, the emperor could no longer speak, so he only dragged Zhu Yongxing's hand and repeatedly made a "succession" lip shape.

Zhu Yongxing said that he was sick, but it didn't mean that he didn't pay attention to the outside world.

He had already heard that Zhu Yonghao's troops were still growing, and the little achievements that he had fought so hard in the early morning were gone. Want him to succeed him? But he didn't know what he could do!

He held back for a long time, but he only did not refuse, which was regarded as acquiescing to the emperor's request.

After that, the Emperor could not speak. By noon the Emperor had fallen into a coma, and his condition had taken a turn for the worse, and he had lost his breath half an hour earlier......

Zhao Ge Lao told that the emperor's funeral would be put on hold, and it was important to arrange for the new emperor to ascend the throne.

Because Zhu Yonghao's manpower has been replenished, I think he will not drag it out any longer, but he is afraid that he will forcibly attack the city soon. Therefore, they planned to announce the enthronement of the crown prince in an hour. The dragon robe has been changed, and the edict has already been prepared. This is urgent......

Zhu Chengyi did not reply immediately, but put his hands behind his back and rubbed his fingers silently.

More than 10,000 people came to Liaojiang again? Is it suspected that the King of Liaojiang has also arrived?

Then, it seems that there will really be no pursuers in his father's place.

As soon as the king of Liaojiang came, the entire Liaojiang land relied on a turn, and it should be easy for the besieged Yan'an army to get out of trouble. Maybe the father at this moment has already completed the rescue?......

As he was talking, Zhu Yongxing's father and son ran over.

It's funny.

The father and son, all looked at Zhu Chengyi with blank eyes, and pulled his sleeves left and right.

"Shizi. You have to stay with me right now...... Ben Wang ...... Solitary...... I...... Side. "Zhu Yongxing has never cultivated his own power in the court, so he doesn't know who to ask for help to rest assured. And the people of the royal family, he never believed it. So since returning to Beijing, Zhu Yongxing has been looking for Zhu Chengyi.

On the way back from Yan'an, he relied on Zhu Chengyi's protection, and at this moment, the only one he could rely on and trust with all his heart was Zhu Chengyi.

Zhu Hongwen also nodded.

"Master, you are my master. Teaching horseback riding is also a master, isn't it? Since you are the crown prince, then you will stay with us. Even if you don't do anything. Luckily? ”

Rong An only felt funny, so he simply sat down on the side.

When Zhu Hongwen saw her, he immediately smiled brightly. "My wife also stayed, and my wife was kind to me. In the future, you should eat fragrant and drink spicy food. I will definitely honor my wife. ”

Zhu Yongxing nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, General Yu is the pillar of my dynasty, and so are the princes and concubines." You've all done the best, I ...... You guys are needed. ”

Rong An laughed again. Ouch. Look at these two nervous! How afraid they are of picking! How insecure it is! Also, she and her husband are life-saving to this father and son! At this point, I think that the two of them should have a good time in the future!

……

An hour later, the salute sounded, the edict was issued, and after skipping many cumbersome steps, Zhu Yongxing hurriedly ascended the throne. As for the emperor's funeral, it was temporarily left to the Ministry of Rites to make full arrangements.

Zhu Yongxing, who was cowering, poured himself three cups of ginseng tea and two cups of rice wine before he pretended to be calm and sat on the dragon chair.

Hundreds of officials bowed, three shouts of long live, and the succession document was issued......

The granary of the state treasury was opened, and all the people in Beijing congratulated together......

And after he sat on the dragon chair, the first holy edict was to canonize Zhu Chengyi as the chief soldier of the soldiers and horses, commanding all the troops in Beijing, and governing and managing the Beijing Guard, the Soldiers and Horses Division and the forbidden army.

Zhu Chengyi raised his eyebrows and looked around secretly.

None of the officials had any objections.

Several old men in the cabinet also raised their eyes and nodded at him. Obviously, this has already gone through the cabinet. These old men probably didn't approve of the emperor's elevation of him.

Zhu Chengyi smiled low and accepted generously.

The location, too high. With such power, it is not his ability to make the ministers look forward to it.

In addition to his recent performance and the prestige he has just established in the army, or Zhu Yongxing needs him, the ministers are for Zhu Yongxing's peace of mind, but also because they still have to rely on him, not on his ability, but on the hope that his father-in-law and his father will come to help him as quickly as possible because of him......

Several reasons added up, but it sent him to such a high position at once.

And he was also greeted by Zhu Yongxing and stood under him.

Under one person!

……

With the strong westerly wind blowing in the past few days, countless documents also drifted out of the city with the wind.

When the document arrived in Zhu Yonghao's hand, he realized that he had missed something. The palace is well hidden, so Zhu Yonghao is up to this time, and he still doesn't know when Zhu Yongxing returned to Beijing and how he entered the city!

Zhu Yonghao was in the camp at that time to pick up the wind for the king of Liaojiang who came from afar. Although the two have a lot of plans, it is the first time they have met, so they naturally have to have a few drinks and discuss the plan. They have just decided that they plan to let all their troops rest tonight and attack the city with all their strength at dawn tomorrow morning.

Zhu Yonghao, who got the paperwork, trembled with his hands, muttering "lying" in his mouth, but his heart couldn't help but feel empty.

What do you mean?

A new emperor ascends the throne? His father died?

But the crown prince succeeded to the throne...... What the hell is this!

No way! Why did Zhu Yongxing return to Beijing? Is it because of Zhu Chengyi? That guy brought him back to Beijing? That guy is really a mortal enemy with himself! Sure enough, I shouldn't have let him go in the morning!

But no, how could Zhu Chengyi come from Qingnan to pick up Zhu Yongxing? Zhu Yongning had previously informed himself that he had only received a bunch of letters from the Qingnan Army a few days ago, including one from Zhu Chengyi. So it shouldn't be!

Zhu Yonghao doesn't believe it!

He couldn't believe it either!

The new emperor has ascended the throne, so what is he!

Here Zhu Yonghao is thinking about how to use public opinion to question Zhu Yongxing's existence.

There were two documents delivered over there, which were issued by the cabinet, signed by hundreds of officials, and stamped with jade seals.

The first letter is an indictment of Liaojiang's rebellion, collusion with foreigners, and cruelty to Zhongliang, in addition to the jade seal, it is also stamped with the emperor's private seal, the clan seal and the cabinet seal.

The other letter was aimed at him: listed his eighteen charges against Zhu Yonghao, scolded him to the point of incompleteness, and directly compared him with Qin Hui and others, saying that he is a lizard and a jackal; close to the evil and cruel, cruel to the loyal and good; killing brothers and slaughtering brothers, killing kings and fathers; What God and man are jealous of, what heaven and earth do not tolerate...... Balabala, sprinkled with more than 600 words, in short, all kinds of emphasis on his "great rebellion"!

Along with the two documents, there were two decrees.

"Where is the Divine Decree?"

"It was the father-in-law of Nashun who stood on the wall of Dongzhimen with the holy decree, and said that you should go to receive the decree with the king of Liaojiang within two quarters of an hour. If not, it will be read on the spot! In addition, Shun Gonggong also added...... Say, if you and the king of Liaojiang refuse, it will be a response with practical actions and confirm that the two of you have indeed rebelled...... "The guards are weak and weak."

Zhu Yonghao blushed with anger and directly pushed the whole machine to the ground.

The king of Liaojiang also had his teeth wrong. If you miss the opportunity, you will not come back.

How did you get the first step......

Once you are labeled as an anti-thief, it means that there will be endless troubles!

"These instruments ...... How did it come out? ”

The guard cautiously replied: "The other party seems to be deliberately provocative, and he used a paper kite." Today's wind is strong, and when it blows, it is flying all over the sky. There are also countless paper kites in Beijing, and we can see the paperwork scattered like snowflakes in the city outside the city...... It is no longer possible to prevent proliferation. ”

Zhu Yonghao was furious again, this time, he directly drew his sword, and even the machine was split in two.

In this way, even if he conquers the capital, he can't escape the word "rebellion"! Plotting to usurp the throne, how ugly! A stain for a lifetime, a stain for future generations to be scolded, and a stain on history books forever! Can he still wipe out everyone in the entire capital?

Depressed!

Whether he accepts the order or not, he is a thief!

Zhu Yonghao naturally couldn't humiliate himself, so he didn't go.

Father-in-law Shun read the two holy decrees in front of everyone......

Zhu Yonghao's way was to remove him from the royal family, kick him out of the royal family, and demote him to a commoner. From then on, he was no longer the second prince, and the royal family did not have him. Whoever wants to follow him again is not only unjustifiable, but also guilty of chaos, connecting the nine clans......

The decree of the king of Liaojiang is similar. His prince was deposed, and he himself was removed from the royal family and demoted to a commoner. The king of Liaojiang is no longer his Zhu Henghe, if all the Liaojiang soldiers do not immediately lay down their weapons and return to Liaojiang immediately, they will be punished for rebellion and punished by the nine clans for the same crime......

With two holy decrees, two documents from the sect were thrown out at one time.

Father-in-law Shun bluntly said that at this moment, notices have been posted on bulletin boards in various places in the capital, and no one is ignorant of the charges and various charges of the two of them......

What Father-in-law Shun said is true.

At this time, the capital is full of people.

Although the people are terrified, they do not know the causes and consequences. I thought that the explosions and killings in the past few days were incredible, but I didn't know that the actual situation was even more critical and terrifying. For a time, it was full of all kinds of scolding against Zhu Yonghao, Zhu Yongning, Liaojiang Wang and Tartar.

Once such an anti-thief scum breaks through the capital, I don't know what kind of traitorous deed they will make, and they can't let them succeed if they say anything! ……

In the palace, Zhu Yongxing was anxious again.

Because Zhu Yonghao himself has arrived outside Dongzhi Gate, he is questioning Zhu Yongxing's existence, and he is also questioning the physical condition of the first emperor, doubting this and not believing that.

Therefore, the best way at this moment is for the new emperor to go out and walk around, and slap Zhu Yonghao in the face with facts, leaving him speechless.

But Zhu Yongxing was afraid.

He has always been afraid of Zhu Yonghao, he was before, and even more so now. His eloquence is not good, and he is even more afraid that he will lose the face of the Great Zhou and the imperial court.

In addition, the cabinet also demanded that he just be able to patrol the streets as a new emperor, accept the people's kneeling, and also increase his prestige. On the way back, he could also go to the recruiting office set up by the Terracotta Division in Middle Street to give an inspiring speech.

Taking advantage of the fact that the people's hearts are in their hands at this moment, the new emperor shows up and says a few more words, and he can recruit as many militiamen as possible - this article was proposed by Zhu Chengyi. Now that he has become a general soldier, it is time to start doing practical things. There are only less than 40,000 elite soldiers in Beijing, and if you really want to fight hard, you will definitely not be Zhu Yonghao's opponent. Before the arrival of reinforcements, the militia was also a soldier. He needs it!
