The next day, Qu Shiyun set off for Guangzhou to discuss with Zhu Yulu about supporting Zhu Youlang as emperor.

Unexpectedly, his trip to Guangzhou did not go well, not only did not promote the cooperation between the two Guangzhou, but radicalized Zhu Yulu to become emperor in a hurry.

On the fifth day of the first month of winter, Zhu Yulu succeeded to the throne as emperor in Guangzhou, changed the year name to Shaowu, and took the next year as the first year of Shaowu.

Three days later, the news of Zhu Yulu's proclamation as emperor reached Wuzhou.

Wen Anzhi, Qu Shiyun and others were furious when they heard this.

After some discussion, it was decided to support Zhu Youlang as the emperor, after all, Zhu Youlang was the king of Gui canonized by Emperor Chongzhen, and he called the emperor's name right.

On the afternoon of the sixteenth day of the winter month, the cold dew has passed, the weather is slightly cool, and two official sedan chairs are carried into the Guiwang Mansion.

Wen Anzhi and Qu Shiyun got down from the sedan chair one after another and went directly into Zhu Youlang's study, and they didn't seem to see Zhu Ciyu.

At this time, Zhu Cijiao was playing with blocks alone in the pavilion in front of his father's study, wanting to be unhappy, and his face was full of sorrow.

How can you not worry? At this time, the Ming Dynasty has exhausted its qi, and there are military and iron horses everywhere, and the lives are charcoalized, and the Ming Dynasty is stormy.

The Qing army was attacking the "Liangguang", and as the son of King Gui, he was born at the wrong time, and it was entirely possible that he would be trampled to death by iron hooves, killed by random arrows, or died in flight.

According to the historical records learned by Zhu Cijiao in his previous life, Zhu Youlang's eldest son Zhu Cijiao was separated in the flight of his father after becoming emperor.

Now that he has crossed over to become Zhu Ciyi, with his father's proclamation as emperor, he is facing a flight, and he is separated in the flight, and he is still a few months away from being three years old.

At this time, Lord Wen and Lord Qu were discussing the accession to the throne with Zhu Youlang, the king of Gui, in the study.

Zhu Cijiao knew that in the Ming Dynasty at this time, there were many wars, changing dynasties, and turbulence, and being an emperor was the most dangerous profession.

Li Zicheng, Zhu Yousong, Zhu Yujian, Zhu Yihai, which vassal king can have a good end for the emperor?

Thinking of this, Zhu Cijiao was extremely conflicted.

The Ming Dynasty was in danger, and he hoped that his father would call the emperor to save the Ming Dynasty from fire and water.

But he knew that once his father became emperor, he would face the Qing army chasing and killing him all the way, and he and his father were both unlucky.

Support your father as emperor? Still not supported?

Right now, in Zhu Youlang's study, Wen Anzhi and Qu Shiyun are fully advocating Zhu Youlang as the emperor.

"The prince is the orthodox bloodline of the Ming Dynasty, you call the emperor's name right, if you don't call the emperor, the Ming Dynasty will really die."

"This king is not prepared at all, no matter the financial resources and military strength, he is not qualified, he is called the emperor, then he has to do it with the real swords and guns of the Qing army."

"Among the current Ming princes, your prestige is the highest, as long as you are the emperor, the old Ming Dynasty will follow you, and there is hope for the restoration of the Ming Dynasty."

"Don't worry, King Rong Ben is thinking again."

"Don't miss the opportunity, it's not coming, don't hesitate, make a decision."

"Don't say it, you go back first, this king is quiet."

……

Qu Shiyun and Wen Anzhi came out of the study in a daze, and saw Zhu Ciyi playing with blocks in the pavilion, so they walked over.

"Ci Yao, you're playing with blocks here alone." Qu asked.

"Yes, Master Qu and Master Wen, do you have something to do with my father?" Zhu Cijiao made a picture of concentrating on playing with blocks.

"yes, but it wasn't settled." Qu Shiyun had a helpless expression on his face.

"Oh, let's talk slowly, we kids don't understand your adult affairs." Zhu Cijiao looked casual.

"Ci Yao, I haven't been to the Enlightenment Hall for a few days, shall we go there to study and review?" Wen Anzhi walked up to Zhu Ciyi, patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Okay!" Zhu Cijiao put away the building blocks and walked towards the Enlightenment Hall.

When I came to the Enlightenment Hall, Wen Anzhi and Qu Shiyun were on the left and the other on the right, and Zhu Ciyi was on the main seat again.

"Ci Yao, now that the Qing army has occupied Ganzhou, Jiangxi, and is attacking Guangzhou, the situation is very critical, and King Gui must be mobilized to claim the emperor as soon as possible, otherwise the Qing army will be leaderless." Qu Shiyun said anxiously.

"Ci Yao, we want to ask you to persuade your father to become the emperor as soon as possible, the Ming Dynasty has no king for a day, it is a plate of scattered sand, and the consequences are unimaginable." Wen Anzhi simply went straight to the point.

"How can there be no king for a day? Didn't Zhu Yulu proclaim himself emperor in Guangzhou a few days ago? Although the two adults deliberately concealed this news, they didn't expect Zhu Cijiao to still know.

"It is because Zhu Yulu is the emperor in Guangzhou, so he wants to support King Gui as the emperor, you think about it, Zhu Yulu is the emperor will inevitably attract the Qing army to attack, Guangdong will fall in a few days, King Gui will be the emperor as soon as possible, so as to make a good defense."

Zhu Ciyi felt that Wen Anzhi's words were not unreasonable, but he still had some concerns in his heart.

"We have analyzed it before, and at present, the struggle for Zhu Yulu has failed, and we do not have an advantage in heaven and people, my father is the emperor, and he has no strength to compete with the Qing army."

"King Gui is called the emperor, indicating that the Ming Dynasty has not been destroyed, didn't you say that if you win, you will fight, and if you can't win, you will run, and deal with the Qing army, looking for opportunities to fight back, it is better than being destroyed by the Qing army in front of you!"

Wen Anzhi still said that Zhu Ciyi was moved, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll persuade my father." ”

Zhu Cijiao secretly thought, you two ministers can't convince Zhu Youlang, how can I, a three-year-old child, convince him.

……

After dinner, Zhu Youlang entered the study, and Zhu Ci followed in.

"Hello, what's wrong?"

"It's been a long time since I've reported my enlightenment to my father."

"Oh, have you learned anything new lately?"

"When I returned to my father, I realized the way to save Ming."

"The way to save the light? Let's hear it. ”

"The Ming Dynasty is in danger, my father is the only person who can save the Ming Dynasty, if you don't call the emperor, the Ming Dynasty will really be destroyed."

"Do you think my father doesn't want to be the emperor, but after the emperor, can we beat the Qing army, the gun is black, do you understand?"

"Father, you think so, as long as you are the emperor, you are the king of a country, you will fight if you win, and if you can't win, you will run, as long as the Qing army can't destroy you, there will still be hope for the Ming Dynasty."

"Hey, when I heard what Ji'er said, my father really figured it out, but Zhu Yulu has been called the emperor, and my father is called the emperor again, and there are two emperors in the Ming Dynasty, doesn't this mess up the Gangchang?"

"Father, now that the war is in chaos, one more emperor will give you more hope! The Ming Dynasty is about to fall, and it is important to save the Ming Dynasty, who cares if it conforms to the system of the monarch. ”

"Listening to what Ji'er said, it is natural for my father to be called the emperor."

"Of course. Lord Wen and Master Qu, you can come in! Zhu Ciyu said that he had served Zhu Youlang and shouted loudly.

Wen Anzhi and Qu Shiyun, who were waiting outside the door, heard Zhu Ciyi's shout and immediately walked into the study.

"Lord Wang, we are ready, we will leave for Zhaoqing tomorrow, and ascend the throne the day after tomorrow, the sooner the time comes."

"Okay, Lord Wen, Lord Qu, you just need to make overall arrangements." Zhu Youlang finally agreed to ascend the throne and become emperor.

Zhu Cijiao came out of the study, sat on the flower bed, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "Pity my father, and what can I do for him?" ”

He knew that as long as his father became emperor, he would be chased by the Qing army, and he would embark on a long road of escape.

"Since the father has been mobilized to become the emperor, there is only the father who can protect him." Zhu Cijiao muttered to himself, and the belief in escorting the car rose from his heart.

However, Zhu Cijiao is only a child less than three years old, how can he protect his father?

"Ding ding-" Like the sound of a mobile phone text message prompt, Zhu Cijiao felt very strange, there was no mobile phone at all more than 300 years ago, where did the strange sound come from?

When Zhu Cijiao looked around for the source of the sound, a crisp mezzo-soprano sounded in his brain: "The dragon guard system has been detected, does the host want to install it?"

The dragon protection system, as the name suggests, is the system that protects the emperor, how can there be such a system.

"Install." Zhu Cijiao replied without hesitation.

"Ding Ding, the system has been successfully installed, but the three core functions of Super Exercises, Magical Military Books, and Huge Wealth can only be used by hosts who are at least seven years old."

After listening to the introduction of the system's functions, Zhu Cijiao couldn't help but scold: "I'm obviously only more than two years old, and I installed this system, and you said that you can't use it until you are seven years old, isn't this a father?"

"Dingding, any system has conditions for use, the host can be born a few years in advance, or it can be used after a few years of conditions." The system emits a voice.

Zhu Cijiao thought about it and felt that this was reasonable, how could he blame the system, if he wanted to blame, he could only blame himself.

He couldn't help but stomp his feet fiercely, if he was born a few years earlier and had super exercises, it would not be a problem to protect his father.

However, he thought about it, he was now two years and eight months old, as long as his father could escape the pursuit of the Qing army in the next four years or so, and after four years the dragon protection system was fully awakened, he would be able to help his father change his life against the sky!

However, in the current more than four years, the dragon protection system cannot be relied on, so you can only rely on yourself to find another way.

After all, Zhu Cijiao is only a two-year-old and eight-month-old child, what can he come up with?
