Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu immediately frowned and asked, "Yu Qian, what do you mean?" ”

Yu Qian looked indifferent, and replied: "I think that at the beginning, His Royal Highness King Xiang supervised the country twice, and the first emperor did not suspect it, and he also fell into the name of the virtuous king, so the minister thought that as long as His Royal Highness was committed to the public, he would be the supervisor of the country at this time, and when the emperor returned to the court, he should not have any grudge against His Royal Highness." ”

Zhu Qiyu paced around and said: "There are six ministries and cabinets in the DPRK and China, and there will be no chaos for the time being. ”

"The six ministries and the cabinet can ensure the normal operation of the imperial court in a short period of time, but what if the emperor does not return for a month and a year? The prince is young, and the country depends on the monarch, so someone needs to stand up after all. ”

Zhu Qiyu was silent, it is true that Zhu Jianshen is only two years old and is still an ignorant child, but he is not.

However, for that location...... He didn't dare to think about it, and he couldn't think about it!

Zhu Qizhen and Zhu Qiyu were not born to the same mother, the two brothers were only one year apart, and the relationship was very close when they were young, due to the early death of Emperor Xuanzong, Zhu Qizhen succeeded to the throne at the age of eight, and a month later canonized his younger brother Zhu Qiyu as the king of the servant and served as the master of the capital.

Since then, the relationship between the two has changed from brother to monarch and minister, as the age continues to increase, Zhu Qiyu has already reached the age of becoming a vassal, but Zhu Qizhen is reluctant to let him go, and has never given him a clear fief, so he has been staying in Beijing.

This time, Zhu Qizhen drove the expedition in person, although he did not designate the position of prisoner, but everyone knew that there was a king in the capital.

To everyone's surprise, what came back was an edict, and King Yu became the first heir of the Ming Emperor!

This is very intriguing, although the throne has a brother-in-law inheritance, but Zhu Qizhen has a son, where is the turn to get Zhu Qiyu's younger brother.

This edict made Zhu Qiyu feel at a loss, he tried every means to listen to others' voices, but he never guessed Zhu Qizhen's thoughts.

"Yu Qian, let me ask you one last time, you really don't know about the edict?"

"I really don't know, and besides, the lower officials are also very confused!"

"Those people just now, really have nothing to do with you?"

"The lower official swears, absolutely nothing to do!"

Zhu Qiyu pondered for a long time and said, "Do you know why this king wants to set up a banquet to entertain these people? ”

"This ......"

Yu Qian was stunned for a moment, he originally thought that King Yu coveted the throne, so he secretly wooed these people, but listening to the meaning of this, people are the same as himself, they are all pitted by the emperor's edict, and they can't help themselves.

"Since the news of the emperor's brother going deep into the desert came, there have been rumors in the capital, some say that the emperor's brother has been killed, and some people say that the emperor's brother was captured by Wara first, in short, rumors are flying all over the sky, do you know about this matter?"

"The lower officials know a little bit about it, but it's all rumors and can't be trusted."

"If you think like this, it doesn't mean that the ministers and the people also think like this, if you let it go and let these rumors continue to spread, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Yu Qian thought for a long time and said, "Your Highness is right, it's the lower officials who are not thoughtful!" ”

"As for these people...... Hum! Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly and said, "What they have done is clear to this king, if this time this king refuses, they will look for other opportunities in the future, it is better to plan and look at the fox tails of these people!" ”

After hearing this, Yu Qian couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It turns out that His Royal Highness has such a deep meaning, but the pattern of the lower officials is small!" ”

"That's it!" Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said, "Since your name is specifically mentioned in the edict, it means that the imperial brother attaches great importance to you, and now that the throne is empty and the country is unstable, the court depends on you ministers!" ”

Yu Qian saluted and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the lower officials will do their best, and they will die!" ”

The two talked until late at night, and Yu Qian said goodbye and left.

Zhu Qiyu sat alone in the study, and scenes from his childhood flashed in front of him, although Zhu Qizhen was only one year older than himself, he knew that as an elder brother, he had to let himself and protect himself everywhere.

As they grew older, the relationship between the two had already become more and more delicate, and Zhu Qiyu knew that he couldn't stay in Jingshi forever, and it was time to go out.

However, at this moment, the Warat army went south, and Zhu Qizhen drove the expedition in person, and then received this edict.

It is clearly written that the successor is himself, not the prince.

Looking at the bright moon outside the window, Zhu Qiyu muttered, "When are you coming back......

On the first day of September in the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, Fengtian Temple.

The dynasties of the Ming Dynasty were divided into the Great Dynasty and the Chang Dynasty. The Great Dynasty is generally held on New Year's Day, the winter solstice and the emperor's birthday, and is a ceremonial court meeting.

The Chang Dynasty is divided into the Shuowang Dynasty and the Japanese Dynasty, of which the Shuowang Dynasty, as the name suggests, is held on the first and fifteenth days of each month, which is a semi-ceremonial court meeting, and the Japanese Dynasty is a regular court meeting that deals with political affairs every day.

The scale of the Shuowang Dynasty is second only to the Great Dynasty Meeting, and high-ranking officials in the capital must be present.

Since the emperor did not return from the expedition, this court meeting was presided over by the grandson of the grandson.

At the beginning of the court meeting, the eunuch Jin Ying stood up with a holy decree and read: "The edict said: Since ancient times, the emperor has succeeded the heavens and raised the imperial universe, and he will establish the Yuan Chu and Maolong Guoben, and the Mianzong Society will have no borders. The emperor's eldest son, Zhu Jianshen, is the head of the clan, to which the will of heaven belongs, and hereby abide by the original edict, carry the ceremony, submit to public opinion, and hereby tell heaven and earth, the temple, and the community, and grant the book of treasures, and establish himself as the crown prince, and he is in the East Palace, with the unification of ten thousand years, and the heart of the four seas. Chin this! ”

The ministers began to whisper, and Zhu Jianshen was appointed as the crown prince, indicating the position of the Empress Dowager Sun.

However, it is rumored that King Yu is about to succeed to the throne, and looking at this situation, it is inevitable that it will be another bloody storm.

After Jin Ying finished reading, he cleared his throat and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, since the emperor has not yet returned to Beijing, today's court meeting will be here first, and ...... will retreat."

"The Empress Dowager Qi, the minister has something to do!"

I saw Xu Huo suddenly stand up and bow his head and say: "The country cannot be without a king for a day, the emperor has not returned yet, the ministers have no owner, and the ministers implore His Royal Highness King Yu to succeed to the throne of the country and preside over the overall situation!" ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

After Xu Huo finished speaking, someone immediately stood up and seconded the proposal, namely Shi Heng, Shi Biao's uncle and nephew, Jinyiwei commanded Ma Shun, and Jinyiwei commanded Cao Qin.

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Sun said with a calm face: "When the emperor drove the expedition in person, why didn't you mention the matter of supervising the country? ”

As soon as the words fell, Cao Nai, the first assistant of the cabinet, stood up and said: "What the Queen Mother said is very true, before we get the exact news from the emperor, we should fulfill our duties and do our duty!" ”

"Lord Cao's words are wrong!"

Although Xu Hui's official position is not big, if he talks about the battle of lips and tongues, he is also from a Jinshi, and he thinks that he is no worse than this cabinet chief.

"The edict sent by the emperor to the front line was clearly written, if the emperor was martyred, he would be succeeded by His Royal Highness King Yu. Jing Duwei, Master Zhang, the edict was sent back by the two of you, you say, isn't it? ”
