Zhang Xianzu, the leader of the Wenchen who fled south and the former cabinet minister, angrily reprimanded: "King Zhenxi, Princess Ning Xue is not only a woman, but also your wife. You have made her emperor, but what ulterior selfish motives do you have?

Du Bian laughed and said, "Selfish? Of course I have selfishness. I am facing the most formidable enemy in the world, the United Kingdom of the East, which is more developed than ever before. In order to win this battle, in order to keep the southwest, in order to recover the Daning Empire, in order to eliminate the puppet emperor Yongde. I do not accept any political struggle, any infighting, and the development of the southwest must not be hindered in any way. ”

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "To put it bluntly, you just want to monopolize power in the southwest, right? King Zhenxi, I misjudged the Yongde puppet emperor before, so I gouged out my left eye and apologized to you." But I don't mean to refriend you, you know. ”

Du Chang said: "Of course I know that Zhennan Gong and I cut off my robes and broke off relations, but I don't have any intention of redeeming it." ”

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "The puppet emperor of Yongde is a kind of Ning Dao Xuan, who committed the crime of killing his mother, that is his wolf's heart and dog's lungs, and he should be cut with a thousand knives." But that doesn't mean you're right to send troops to Sichuan and Hunan before. ”

Zhang Xianzu said: "Yes, King Zhenxi." Now that the ministers who were loyal to the former emperor are here, please explain to everyone why they sent troops to Sichuan and Hunan, which has nothing to do with the Yongde puppet emperor. ”

Princess Ning Xue said: "My husband sent troops to Sichuan and Hunan, of course, to win the Eastern United Kingdom and keep the Daning Empire. ”

For this, Princess Ning Xue has indeed determined.

Because she met Du Bian in Sichuan, and when Du Bian saw her, she was covered in mud and had just come out of the ground.

What does this prove?

It proved that there was something Du Chang wanted underground, and he sent troops to Sichuan for this reason, not for expansion at all.

Because after taking Sichuan, Du Bian neither expanded the army, nor immediately implemented a new policy, nor even imposed additional taxes on grain.

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "Her Royal Highness the princess's reason is unreasonable, the big war is imminent, the king of Zhenxi sent troops to seize Sichuan and Hunan at this time, and it is too late to prove it, in the war with the Eastern United Kingdom, Sichuan and Hunan provinces are of little use." If he wanted to dominate, if the army of the king of Zhenxi failed, no one would stop his army from retreating to Sichuan. From a military point of view, it is inexplicable that the king of Zhenxi sent troops to seize Sichuan and Hunan. ”

Zhang Xianzu said: "King Zhenxi, can I ask you to tell me now the real reason why you seized Sichuan and Hunan?"

Du Bian said coldly: "No comment." ”

This attitude made everyone stunned for a while, and they were so arrogant and domineering.

As soon as these words came out, the audience was furious.

Then Du Chang said: "I repeat, I want Princess Lining Snow to be the new emperor of the Daning Empire, who is in favor and who is against?"

"No way!"

"Is there a reason for a woman to be an emperor in the world?"

"This is against the way of heaven, the ancestors of the Daning Empire know it, and there is no peace underground. ”

"It's a reversal. ”

Hundreds of ministers, filled with righteous indignation.

And at this moment, the prince of Shu came on horseback, bowed to Du Chang and said: "The king of Zhenxi listened to me, and now the puppet emperor of Yongde is spurned by the world, and he is pointed out by thousands of people." But once you set up Princess Ning Xue as the empress, then the public opinion in the world will hit like a mountain and a sea. The public opinion justice that you have so hard won will disappear in an instant, and the Yongde puppet emperor will reduce the pressure of public opinion. At that time, you will once again be pointed at by thousands of people, and the whole world will be blamed. Because in the eyes of the people of the world, even if the puppet emperor Yongde is rebellious, it is also after the Ning royal family, although he killed his mother, and he was not the first emperor's own flesh and blood, but if the people of the world are allowed to choose, I am afraid that everyone would rather accept Emperor Yongde than Princess Ning Xue. This is earth-shattering, and it is really difficult for the world to accept a female emperor. ”

Du said: "I don't accept it, I will slowly get used to it." ”

The prince of Shu said: "King Zhenxi, if you don't like me, it doesn't matter. At this time, there are still many feudal princes in the southwest, and you can pick out another virtuous person, and I can quit. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Xianzu and Song Que were even more moved, and they felt that the prince of Shu was broad-minded and the appearance of a human king.

Suddenly, hundreds of people present were even more popular, thinking that this emperor must be the son of the king of Shu.

Princess Ning Xue hesitated for a moment, then took out a spar tube and shouted, "The Emperor's Secret Decree." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Before Du Yan entered Beijing to get married, he informed the emperor that he had received a secret letter from the crown prince. Later, after investigation, it was found that this secret letter was not written by the prince, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, the Emperor secretly summoned Princess Ning Xue and gave her a secret letter.

"If the crown prince does not do well after ascending the throne and colludes with the Fang family, then the queen mother and Du Bian can carry out the abolition of the establishment, and this is true!"

The message is very simple.

After Du Chang finished reading, the audience fell into a momentary stunned.

I even felt very sad.

Zhang Xianzu and others even shed tears.

Du Bian also felt extremely bitter and sad in his heart.

What can be seen in this letter?

Although Emperor Tianyun didn't say anything, he was not completely ignorant of Emperor Yongde's background.

But he chose to pretend to be confused and did not pursue it.

But after raising him for more than 20 years, he has long been full of father-son love for the prince and cannot be cut off. Besides, when the crown prince was abolished, there was no one to replace him.

However, he was also full of worries about the situation after the crown prince ascended the throne, and on the one hand, he hoped that everything would go well and the prince would become a wise lord. But if the crown prince does not succeed after ascending the throne, let the queen mother and Du change do the abolition.

From the perspective of a king, he is indeed not a good emperor.

But, he's such a good guy.

Moreover, in the secret decree, he only wrote that the Queen Mother and Du Bian had the right to abolish the establishment, without Zhang Xianzu, without Gu Shunchang, and without Song Que.

This is not only because he especially believes in Du Bian, but because Du Bian has the military power in his hands, so only the Queen Mother and Du Bian have the right to abolish the establishment, which can minimize internal strife and contradictions.

Moreover, he also saw with his own eyes the new policy of Du Chang Southwest, and also knew the strength of the United Kingdom of the East, and deeply knew that the world had changed, and the times had changed, although he himself could not keep up, but he did not want to stop the pace of this era.

Zhang Xianzu, Song Que and the others took the very small secret decree and carefully examined it over and over again.

It is confirmed that it is the handwriting of the first emperor, and the pen and ink used, as well as the paper, are all true.

Of course, at this point, the secret decree can be forged, but they believe it to be true.

"First Emperor!"

"First Emperor!"

Zhang Xianzu, Song Que and others couldn't help but kneel on the ground and cry bitterly.

Princess Ning Xue said: "My father's secret decree is clearly written, and the Queen Mother and Du Bian can do something to abolish the establishment. It can be abolished or established, so the husband has the power of the new emperor. ”

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "That's right, in the secret decree of the first emperor, the king of Zhenxi does have the right to abolish it. However, he did not have the right to make a woman the emperor, let alone his own wife. ”

Zhang Xian said: "To say a bad word, once Princess Lining Snow is the emperor, will this Daning Empire be surnamed Du or Ning? Will there be anything to do in the future?"

"That's right, that's right! The king of Zhenxi has the power to abolish the emperor, but there is no reason to make a woman the emperor. ”

"Let a woman be the emperor, it is better to be on the throne of the puppet emperor Yongde. ”

Du Bian said: "That means that you don't support Princess Ning Xue as the new emperor of the Daning Empire?"

"Of course not. ”

"Of course not!"

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "King Zhenxi, don't we support it? Are you going to go on a killing spree and kill us all?" Then even if you do it, I have brought less than ten people to Guilin Mansion this time, and if I dare to come, I will not be afraid of death at all!"

Zhang Xianzu said: "The king of Zhenxi wants to kill, so it happens to start from Zhang's head." ”

Ning Chong, the prince of the king of Shu, said: "The king of Zhenxi has hundreds of thousands of troops, if you want to kill someone, count me as one." ”

"Killing?" Du said, "If you sabotage my new policy, or do evil on the southwest ground, then I don't care about killing you cleanly." If I go on a killing spree because of political differences, you will underestimate me too much. ”

"Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, since you and I disagree, then the road is facing the sky, and each goes half of it. Since you don't support Princess Ning Xue as the new emperor of the Daning Empire, get out of my southwest completely. Du said sharply.

Suddenly, several young courtiers said: "The southwest is the southwest of the Daning Empire, not the southwest of your Du Chang, what power do you have to drive us away? You are so arrogant and so anxious to drive us away, aren't you a thief? What are you if you are not a chaotic minister and a thief?"

"Whew, Wow......"

Several demon-blooded warriors stepped forward and pulled out those people, slashed their heads off with their knives in their hands.

Suddenly, the audience was shocked.

Du Bianzhen didn't say a word and killed people directly.

"Zhennan Gong, Lord Zhang, take good control of your people. Du Bian said: "If you don't agree with politics, you can talk well, get together and disperse, if you don't speak inferiorly, don't blame me for the butcher's knife is too sharp." ”

"If you kill us, can you seal the mouth of the world? Rebel thieves, can you kill five or ten of us, can you still kill all the people in the world?"

More than a dozen young officials were indignant and shouted loudly.

In the next second, dozens of demon-blood warriors directly dragged them out and beheaded them in front of everyone.

Du Bian looked at Zhennan Gong Song Que and Zhang Xianzu and said: "Two adults, there is only one reason why I Du Bian killed someone. If you think that I will feel famous and dare not kill because of the pressure of public opinion, then you are very wrong. The war is imminent, the society is already on the verge of destruction, and I don't care about any reputation. ”

Suddenly, Song Que and Zhang Xianzu trembled with anger.

"Who else wants to be quick to talk? Who else wants to talk about it?" Du Bianhan said coldly: "I said clearly, I am willing to support Princess Ning Xue's accession to the throne as emperor, and I can stay." If you don't want to, get out of my southwest immediately, so that you can gather and disperse. If you want to scold me, scold me behind my back, scold in front of me, and don't overestimate my mind. I don't want to be an emperor, and I don't need a reputation. ”

"You are going to usurp the throne, you will make Princess Ning Xue the emperor, and when she gives birth to a son, you will kill her, and then usurp the throne yourself!" another young man.

In the next second, he was rescued and split in half with a knife.

Song Que trembled and said, "Du Bian, what is the difference between your behavior and that brute of the Yongde Puppet Emperor? Are you really not afraid of being ruined and becoming the only husband in the world?"

Du Bian said: "I want to take an unprecedented path, so there is nothing wrong with becoming the only husband in the world." ”

"If God wants to destroy people, first make people crazy!" "Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "King Zhenxi, you are so arrogant and cruel, it is not long before you perish. ”

Zhang Xianzu said loudly: "Since the southwest of the king of Zhenxi can no longer accommodate us loyal ministers and righteous sons, let's break it completely." Let's go, let's go!"

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "Let's go, let's go to the Kingdom of Annan." In the world, you are not the only one in the southwest!"

Then, Song Que and Zhang Xianzu led everyone, under the protection of thousands of warriors from the Shu Palace, to leave Guilin Mansion and go to the Kingdom of Annam.

At this point, the two forces loyal to Emperor Tianyun were completely divided.

......

Three days later!

Du changed and supported Princess Ning Xue to ascend the throne as emperor in Guilin, with the year name Zhenwu.

Guilin Mansion was renamed Guijing and became the temporary imperial capital of the Daning Empire.

So far, Princess Ning Xue has become the first female emperor in the history of China in this world.

The whole enthronement ceremony is very simple.

Emperor Yongde's enthronement ceremony can be regarded as simple.

And Princess Ning Xue's enthronement ceremony can be called completely shabby.

The imperial palace was also rebuilt from the Guilin governor's yamen, and there was not a single foreign envoy.

Except for the officials of Du Bian's family in the southwest, none of the ministers came to attend.

On the contrary, a large number of officials in Sichuan and Hunan provinces fled, some of them took refuge in the puppet emperor of Yongde in the north, and some went to the Annan Kingdom in the south to join the exile forces led by the prince of Shu.

Even, some officials in Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guizhou provinces have left.

But no matter how shabby the enthronement ceremony was, no matter whether there were foreign envoys or not, no matter how many people opposed it.

Ning Xuedu became the new emperor of the Daning Empire.

He became the supreme monarch of the entire five southwestern provinces, nearly 1.5 million square kilometers, and a population of tens of millions.

Immediately afterwards, the Daning Empire formed a cabinet, formed a high command, and continued to deepen military and political reforms in the five southwestern provinces, and the new policy was further promoted.

At this point, Du Bian's Southwest Army also officially became the central army of the Daning Empire.

Ning Xue's first will after ascending the throne: "Du, the king of the west of the town, became the regent of the Daning Empire and took charge of the military and political power." ”

Immediately afterwards, Fu Hongbing was canonized as the Marquis of Fu Cheng of the Daning Empire.

Canonized Ji Shi as the Marquis of Ji Cheng.

Canonized Li Zhan as the Marquis of Licheng.

Canonized Li Ling as the Marquis of Lingcheng.

Canonized Ji Qing as the Marquis of Ji Cheng.

Canonized Blood Guanyin as the commander of the First Fleet of the Daning Empire.

Canonized Li Wenyu as the Duke of Gui Guo.

Then, Emperor Zhenwu decreed that in addition to the existing eunuchs, the Daning Empire would no longer appoint any eunuchs from now on.

The Li Jing Division and the East Factory were abolished, and the Daning Imperial Security Department was rebuilt.

In short, the relevant will is overwhelming, and it completely and completely subverts everyone's impression.

This kind of reform can no longer be described as drastic, but a complete overthrow, a complete reinvention of the imperial institutions.

Of course, now that the war is imminent, even if new departments such as the Ministry of Security, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry are established, they are just empty shells.

Now everything in the five southwestern provinces is in the service of the coming war!

......

Du changed the snow princess in the southwest to become the emperor, and it has not only caused an uproar in the whole world, but also a landslide and a stormy wave.

The literati of the whole world were first completely shocked, and then they frantically criticized and wrote.

Du Bian is no longer just a chaotic minister and thief, he is simply a sinner for eternity, a great rebellion, subverting morality, and destroying the world.

And the puppet emperor Yongde in the capital was completely ecstatic!

During this time, he was completely ruined and notorious.

At first, there were people who desperately attacked him and insulted him. After his iron-blooded killing, the entire capital was bloody, and millions of people trembled and did not dare to speak.

However, the entire capital was looking at him, the emperor's path.

And every day, countless big-character posters appear, exposing the crime of killing the mother of the puppet emperor of Yongde, and exposing his life experience of Ning Dao Xuan's species.

During the day, people were sent to tear it up, and all of them popped up overnight, and it was useless to impose a curfew.

The whole world is scolding him, and almost making the Yongde puppet emperor crazy.

But after Du changed Ning Xue as the new emperor, the world was completely shocked, and then all the firepower turned to Du Bian and Princess Ning Xue.

As a result, Princess Ning Xue became the puppet emperor of Zhenwu.

If Song Que and others say, compared to a woman being the emperor, the people of the world would rather be the emperor like Yongde, although he killed his mother, although he was not the son of the first emperor, but at least he was a man, and he was the blood of the Ning royal family.

"Hahaha, if God wants to make people perish, first make people crazy!" Yongde Pseudo-Emperor laughed and said: "Du changed this stupid trick, so that I will be completely infamous at once, and all the infamy in the world will return to his head." ”

"Woman as emperor, Du Change, you, the regent, will let you spend a few days first, and soon you will be in ashes, and there will be no place to bury you!"

"Du Hui, how many troops have been gathered?" asked the Yongde Puppet Emperor, "When can we go to war?"

"Your Majesty, 500,000 troops have been assembled!" Du Hui said: "It is necessary to gather 650,000 troops to attack the five southwestern provinces of Dubian from the east and south, and destroy Dubian southwest in the shortest possible time with the power of thunder and thunder." ”

Yongde Puppet Emperor said: "You estimate, how long can we end the war and destroy the five southwestern provinces of Dubian?"

Du Hui said: "The super heavy artillery has arrived and arrived in the South China Sea, and the Kunlun Nu Legion is about to land. The United Kingdom of the East is a hundred times more than Du Chang, this is an asymmetrical war between tigers and wild dogs, this war Du Bian is destined to have no power to fight back, and within a month and a half, it can sweep the entire southwest and destroy Du Chang. ”

......

July!

With the support of Song Que, the prince of Zhennan, Zhang Xianzu, the cabinet minister, and hundreds of ministers who could not escape, Ning Chonghua, the son of the king of Shu, ascended the throne as the emperor in Hue Mansion of the Kingdom of Annam, with the year name Yongchang.

The capital is still Danh Ninh, and in Hue Province is only the establishment of the exile court.

It's just that this exiled court has a few hundred officials and an army of nearly 100,000.

Moreover, not long after Ning Chonghua, the son of the king of Shu, ascended the throne, he immediately received a response from the entire Daning Empire.

Many civilian officials went south one after another to pledge allegiance to Ning Chong.

Emperor Yongde's court has been occupied by the Fang family, and the puppet emperor Zhenwu is a woman, so these officials loyal to the former emperor can of course only choose the Yongchang Emperor who is in exile in the Kingdom of Annam.

Not only literati officials, but even many ordinary people supported this Yongchang Emperor from the heart.

So far, there have been three emperors in the entire Daning Empire.

Yongde, Zhenwu, Yongchang.

The exiled Yongchang Emperor, although the weakest in power, was seen as orthodox.

Emperor Yongde was backed by the Fang system and the Eastern United Kingdom was the most powerful.

Emperor Zhenwu is backed by Du Bian, and his power is secondary, but because he is a woman, almost the world does not agree.

......

Hue Province, Kingdom of Annam.

Inside the temporary palace of Emperor Yongchang.

Zhang Xianzu said: "The Eastern United Kingdom has gathered 600,000 troops, and the crusade against Dubian Southwest is close at hand. Snipe and mussels compete for the benefit of fishermen, and while both sides are losing the battle, can we send troops north to seize Guangxi?"

Lord Yuzhen said: "No, although we disagree with Du Chang's southwestern politics, we have a common enemy, the Eastern United Kingdom. Lips and teeth are cold, and they should secretly form an alliance to jointly resist the United Kingdom of the East. ”

Zhang Xianzu said: "How can I form an alliance with him? ”

Zhennan Gong Song Que said: "In addition to interests, there is also morality in the world! Du changed perverse practices and established women as emperors, and has cut off the road to the world." The matter of alliance with him must not be mentioned again. ”

Ning Chong, the prince of the former Shu king, said: "Du changed the woman as the emperor, his ambition has been revealed, and he has become a public enemy of the world, and we must not be associated with it." In this battle, we sit back and watch Du Chang perish, and the war between them is a great opportunity for us to develop. ”

"Yes, yes!"

"Sit back and watch Du Bian, the lone husband, perish. ”

"Let Du Bian and the United Kingdom of the East lose both, and we will benefit again. ”

"We should seal the border and prevent the Kingdom of Annam from entering the southwest of Dubian. ”

And right now!

A samurai flew up and hissed: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good! A powerful fleet of the United Kingdom of the East is coming towards the Kingdom of Annam?

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent?

United Kingdom of the East, do you have something wrong with your brain?

In this big battle, you didn't go to fight the southwest Dubian first, but came to attack the Kingdom of Annan?

Originally, it was discussed to sit back and watch Du Bian perish, not only not to support a single soldier, but also to block the border, so that Du Bian and the United Kingdom of the East would lose and reap the benefits.

As a result, you are the first person to hit you.

The vast sea!

An incomparably formidable fleet, followed by large cargo ships, on which were densely packed with the great armies of the United Kingdom of the East.

However, the flag said Mo.

This is obviously the army of the United Kingdom of the East, but it is written Mo.

Is that Mohs on the Mohs scale?

But no matter which Mo clan, their target was the Kingdom of Annam, that is, the small court of exile of the Yongchang Emperor.
