Chapter 122: Persuasion
"Your Majesty, Master, Yang Ting and Lord Yang ask to see you."
The two brothers glanced at each other, Zhu Houzhao's face showed a relieved smile, as if he had won a battle, but Zhu Houwei's face looked extremely dignified, the real power figure, the cabinet deputy assistant Yang Tinghe came to Yongwangfu, which undoubtedly released a clear political signal to the outside world.
The cabinet is ready to comply with the will of Emperor Zhengde and welcome King Yong into the Forbidden City to supervise the country!
"Go ahead." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said, "It's time for you to face this group of old stubborns."
Zhu Houwei nodded, and as soon as he walked to the door, he heard Zhu Houzhao say again: "Brother Wei, it's not that my brother escapes, it's not that my brother doesn't want to take on the responsibility left by my ancestors to my brother, it's because my brother knows that he can't be a good emperor, and for the sake of the Ming Dynasty's eternal society, I will let my brother work more hard in the future."
Zhu Houwei took a deep breath and turned around and said: "The younger brother will live up to the trust of the imperial brother, if the imperial brother is tired of the outside world one day and wants to re-ascend the throne, the younger brother should immediately abdicate to welcome the imperial brother, even if the imperial brother has no intention of returning to Luan, the younger brother is willing to make the son of the imperial brother the crown prince, and he will be in charge of the great treasure of the society in the future!"
Zhu Houzhao laughed when he heard this: "With Brother Wei's words, the imperial brother is not unjustly given up the throne, go ahead."
Zhu Houwei left, and Zhu Houzhao looked at Wu Qiulu with a smile and said, "Are you afraid of me?"
"I'm afraid...... Don't be afraid ......" Wu Qiulu's heart had already risen to her throat at this time.
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said, "If I let you serve to sleep, are you willing?"
Wu Qiulu pursed her lips, looking like she was about to cry, but she lowered her head.
"It seems that I don't want to." Zhu Houzhao was stunned and said: "I haven't met a woman who dares to refuse me in this world, if you are a woman from other people's families, it doesn't matter if you are from an ordinary household or an official eunuch, if I want to get you, no one will dare to say a word, but you are different, you are Brother Wei's woman, different."
"Your Majesty, slave ......"
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't need to be afraid of me, I just asked so casually, and you don't need to take it to heart, come, pour wine for me."
Wu Qiulu poured Zhu Houzhao full, and the tightly crumbling heartstrings relaxed slightly at this moment.
"Take Lord Yang to the study." Zhu Houwei glanced at Ren Yang and ordered: "Also, go find a few women who have been released from the palace after His Majesty's blessing, be careful not to let anyone know."
"The slave and maid understand, and the slave and maid will do it."
In the study, Zhu Houwei sat upright, and after a while, Yang Tinghe was brought into the study, and hurriedly saluted: "Xiaguan Yang Tinghe meets King Yong."
Zhu Houwei got up and said with a smile: "Why should Yang Ge be polite, please take a seat."
Yang Tinghe sat down and said, "The prince must know that His Majesty disappeared on the wedding night, I wonder what the prince thinks about this?"
Zhu Houwei sighed: "Don't dare to hide it, the royal brother had a deep talk with the king before the wedding, there are many evasive meanings in the words, the king persuaded the royal brother to dispel this ridiculous idea, but I didn't expect the royal brother to finally take such a step, so that the king and even the queen mother were caught off guard, the king thought that the royal brother was not irresponsible, but the temperament would be so wrong to make a mistake, if the king was not because the queen mother wanted to give marriage to the Ninghou Mansion, I am afraid that at this time it was already on the way back to Huzhou, the king thought that as long as the king turned, the royal brother had no hope, Naturally, he will return to Luan, and there is no need to worry too much. ”
"So the prince knows about His Majesty's letting the prince supervise the country?"
"Yes." Zhu Houwei simply admitted: "But this king doesn't dare to do it."
Yang Tinghe nodded when he heard this, and seemed to have finally made up his mind and said: "The lower officials don't know whether to say it or not."
Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "The elder of the pavilion is serious, there are only you and me here, and you can get into my ears from your mouth, how can you say anything inappropriate."
"The lower officials think that His Majesty has been planning for a long time, and his mind has been decided, and he wants His Majesty to return to Luan, but he is afraid that it will be very difficult, but the country cannot be without a king for a day, without His Majesty in the court, the cabinet can still be self-dictated in small matters, but it is difficult for the king to decide on major matters, His Majesty left a decree in the Department of General Administration before leaving, stating that the prince will temporarily supervise state affairs, and the lower officials are here to implore the prince to enter the palace to supervise the country!"
Zhu Houwei waved his hand and said: "If it is not the king's resignation, it is really the king who can't agree, now the whereabouts of the royal brother are unknown, the court should make every effort to find the royal brother to return to Luan, at this time, if the king is in charge of the country, wouldn't it make people who don't know the truth think that the king is greedy for power, this king is the second son of the first emperor, the king of Yong, and the royal brother's care, the king will be divided in Huzhou, it is a fluke to be able to go back to Beijing to meet the queen mother once in this life, how can he enter the Dragon Court and supervise the country?"
"The prince's words are wrong!" Yang Tinghe Zhengse said: "The prince and His Majesty are both the sons of the former emperor, and the eldest son inherits the throne according to the system, but His Majesty travels far away, and the country has no owner.
"How can Lord Yang not understand what Lord Yang said, it's just ......"
"Lord Wang!" Yang Tinghe directly interrupted Zhu Houwei's words very unceremoniously and said: "Lord Wang, what you are carrying now is the weight of the society, and it is also the high hopes of thousands of Ming people, if you are unwilling to supervise the country, then at least you will say that you are resisting Your Majesty's will, and if you want to say that you are ignoring the Zhu family's world!"
Zhu Houwei was speechless, he couldn't say that the country would be in prison anyway, he had to come and ask for three excuses, good guy, now he is buttoned by Yang Tinghe's hat, as if he is heinous if he does not supervise the country, and he is a sinner of the Ming Dynasty......
Sighing fiercely, Zhu Houwei said: "The emperor's favorite thing is to mess around, this time he played missing, and let the king supervise the country, to tell the truth, the king has no bottom in his heart, in case the royal brother tests whether the king has different intentions, won't the king bear the grievances of the whole body?"
Yang Tinghe wanted to curse......
Emperor Zhengde suddenly gave up the throne, and if he didn't discuss it with King Yong, he dared to twist his head off and play Keju.
But the question now is that King Yong's words are irrefutable, and King Yong is indeed brothers, but what about brothers?
Folk brothers can still break the wall, let alone the royal family with weak family affection!
Throughout the ages, I have only heard of fighting for the throne, and I have really never heard of humility between brothers, you say that it is not a temptation, it is not a temptation, and you say that there is no suspicion is no suspicion?
"The lower official should be the Empress Dowager, and I implore the Empress Dowager to let the prince come to the court to supervise the country!"
Zhu Houwei was waiting for this sentence, and he was happy but silently muttered in his heart: "If the queen mother really lets this king pick up the burden of social welfare, this king should be spared embarrassment!"
