Chapter 5: That is, the Emperor's Throne (for the helmsman to be free from the world!) )

"Your Majesty, don't be attached to the throne!"

Gao Mengqing said, took a deep look, and looked loyal.

Looking at the silent ministers of the imperial court in front of him, Zhu Yousong's face was slightly different, even he had already understood.

This group of people actually forced the palace directly!

This is a naked coup d'état!

Zhu Yousong's brain circuit is very slow, and he didn't understand it until now.

But it's useless to say anything, after a year on the throne, he still wants power and no power, no one wants anyone, and there is no other way than to give up the throne!

Zhu Yousong's lips opened slightly, and he was about to speak.

In his opinion, this prince can barely be regarded as the old Zhu family's own family, and it is good to go out and be a chic prince by himself.

"Your Majesty, don't waver!"

Ma Shiying, the head of the cabinet of the Hongguang Dynasty, walked in from outside the ancestral hall with a steel knife in his hand, followed by many militiamen.

These militiamen broke in and quickly controlled the inside and outside of the ancestral hall, and the ministers were all at each other's throats, and some of them even planned to change their tunes.

Gao Mengqing turned her head, looking a little surprised, but she didn't panic.

He just wondered, where did this thing get hundreds of guardsmen?

Gao Mengying said coldly: "The prince must be on the throne tonight, the first emperor is above, do you Ma Shiying have the heart of disobedience and want to help the abuse?" ”

"I think you're the one who aids the abuse! Gao Mengying, in vain you boast that you have read all the books of sages, have you read them all in the belly of a dog? ”

Without any hesitation, Ma Shiying stepped forward and stabbed him in the chest.

The blood slowly flowed down the cold blade to the ground, Gao Mengying fell straight to the ground, his face was full of unwillingness, maybe he couldn't have imagined that Ma Shiying would be so decisive.

"The traitor has been executed, and the fake prince will be killed together!"

This scene came too quickly, and the ancestral hall, which was still silent, was in chaos in an instant.

Seeing Ma Shiying walking towards him with a bloody knife, Wang Zhiming panicked, and Zhu Yousong behind him was even more at a loss.

Soon, there was a shout of killing outside the ancestral hall.

The shouting of killing had turned into a scream in a moment, and the people who remained outside dispersed violently, and the sound of chaotic footsteps approached the ancestral hall.

A general in armor walked in, and the tiger looked around.

"Where is the prince?"

Everyone turned their heads to look and found that it was Xincheng Bo Zhao Zhilong, who held the military power of Nanjing!

"The traitor tried in vain to kill the prince, you and I are on the side of the king, kill the traitor Ma Shiying!"

What Zhao Zhilong brought, after all, was the regular Nanjing City garrison Ming Army.

These Ming troops have not been in battle formations much, although they are far inferior to the Qing army, but they are full of courage to deal with these people, like chopping melons and vegetables.

Blood flowed all over the ancestral hall, and the remaining folk men put down their swords and guns one after another, and the scene was controlled.

Zhao Zhilong grabbed Ma Shiying, threw him in front of him, knelt down on one knee and said, "The minister has seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" How to deal with this traitor, please instruct! ”

Until now, Wang Zhiming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The scene just now was too chaotic, and as the protagonist, he didn't have the right to speak one by one, and there was no way but to hide and wait for the end.

Wang Zhiming can be regarded as understanding what it is like to be Emperor Han Xian in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Today's situation has been basically clear, Xincheng Bo Zhao Zhilong holds the military power of Nanjing, and a large number of Nanjing nobles stand behind him.

To put it simply, whoever he chooses to help, he will get the position.

But is Zhao Zhilong a loyal minister?

No, this is a great traitor!

In history, the Qing army attacked Nanjing, and as a garrison minister, he held the power of soldiers and horses, and his ancestors received the grace of the Ming Dynasty, but they chose to shave their hair and change clothes, and surrendered to Kaicheng.

This kind of person is not enough to be trusted.

But now Wang Zhiming has no choice, and if he wants to ban Hongguang and ascend the throne smoothly, he can only trust Zhao Zhilong.

Zhao Zhilong was thinking about something, it couldn't be more obvious.

Standing Hongguang, at most, it is a peaceful chaos, or a mere earl, if he helps himself to take the throne, it is from the dragon's work.

In terms of his current status and weight, it is not enough to give him the title of Duke of the Kingdom at that time, it is the ultimate dream of a man who is in power.

As for whether he wants to stay overnight in the dragon bed and be Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo of the Ming Dynasty, this Wang Zhiming is unknown.

Wang Zhiming only knew that he must not be the emperor of Han Xian and let others slaughter him.

Once you get the position, it's the time of blood!

Ma Shiying was pressed to the ground, her mouth still non-stop, and the spittle flew wildly.

"Fake prince, you are a fake prince!"

"The Ming Dynasty is going to be usurped from now on!!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and the ancestral hall was unusually quiet except for Ma Shiying's indignant roar.

These important ministers of the state in the court all became mute when faced with the soldiers in armor.

Wang Zhiming exhaled deeply, although he knew in his heart that Ma Shiying was the only loyal minister among all the people present, but he had to kill him.

Because he is not loyal to himself.

Ma Shiying is the leader of the so-called eunuch party, that is, the leader of the imperial party who supports the Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong.

Killing him will make the Donglin Party happy.

The Donglin Party is happy that it can take the position by itself.

So, Wang Zhiming said: "Ma Shiying helped to abuse him, and he actually wanted to kill a lonely person to seize the throne, and his actions can be punished!" ”

"Uncle Xincheng, you go-"

Zhao Zhilong was waiting for this sentence, and he didn't care if he finished it or not, he just laughed cruelly and rudely interrupted the next words.

He stepped forward with a knife in his hand, set up a stance, and then cut off Ma Shiying's head, which was still cursing.

Wang Zhiming's words were interrupted, and he subconsciously turned around and glanced at Zhu Yousong, and saw the helplessness in the other party's eyes.

But soon, Zhu Yousong found a fire in Wang Zhiming's eyes that was completely different from him.

This fire is burning!

Even Chongzhen didn't expect that only a year after his death, such a bloody scene would occur in the ancestral hall of Nanjing.

Seeing Ma Shiying being killed, Zhu Yousong's ass was paralyzed to the ground, and everyone was frightened and stupid, and said tremblingly:

"I abdicate, I will abdicate, don't kill innocents in vain."

......

Following.

On the Daming Gate, the flag is displayed.

Countless Nanjing civil ministers and military generals were all present, and the troublemakers and people also gathered quietly in the distance, looking in the same direction.

Eight days ago, the prince returned from Nandu, causing a sensation in Nanjing.

In the face of the beak of the ministers in the Wuying Palace, the prince was calm and modest, and put an end to all the doubts in the court.

Today is the day when Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong abdicated and Chongzhen's crown prince "Zhu Cihong" officially succeeded to the throne.

The scholars all called this move "Zhengguo", and they celebrated each other, thinking that they had done a great thing for the Ming Dynasty.

The people inside and outside Nanjing are even more crowded, vying to see the true face of the prince.

Zhu Yousong, who is still Emperor Hongguang, trembled and walked up to the gatehouse, unfolded a scroll, and read aloud:

"Jiashen is in a national disaster, the first emperor touched the thief and died in the sky, the crown prince hunted in the north, and the captives knocked on the pass, the country was in danger, and the people's hearts were surging. Shiyun has a long monarch, and I obey the emperor's ancestral system, that is, the emperor's throne, and temporarily establish the sect. ”

"Now the crown prince is crossing to the south, he is wise and well-known, and I should abdicate to correct the country."

Wang Zhiming did not reply to this sentence.

Zhu Yousong had to say it twice, and pushed it three times, this is the rule set by the ancestors.

"Please also ask the crown prince to take the throne."

"Please also ask the crown prince to take the throne."

After the third sentence, Zhu Yousong exhaled deeply.

Because he knew that after saying this, he would no longer be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

I just don't know if he's pretending to be relaxed.

Wang Zhiming said at this time: "Gu Nan came here, and he didn't want to ascend the throne, but He Qing and others were invited by the resignation, and His Majesty was humble again and again. ”

"The throne has been decided!" Mu Hu shouted loudly from the side.

Seeing this, the civil and military officials waiting on both sides kowtowed one after another.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
