Chapter 25: The Great Enemy Establishes the Crown Prince

Zhu Ciyi's "Five Elements" tactics dragged down the 20,000 siege Qing soldiers led by Kong Youde.

When the Qing soldiers arrived at the gate of Guilin, they were already seriously injured and could not launch a siege charge, so they had to retreat to ten miles away to rest.

Coming down from the city wall, Zhu Youlang returned directly to the dormitory, and the queen had already prepared hot water for him to take a bath.

"Your Majesty, after a busy day, let's take a bath!"

Seeing Zhu Youlang returning to the palace, Queen Wang went up to change her clothes.

"Okay, I'd like to take a good bath too."

After Zhu Youlang changed his clothes, he walked straight to the bathtub.

"I heard that the Qing army attacked Guilin, so I shouldn't be able to attack it!"

Queen Wang gently rubbed Zhu Youlang with a towel.

"There is no danger, I fought a beautiful battle today, this is the credit of Ji'er, if he is around, he should be rewarded."

Speaking of today's city defense, Zhu Youlang was very excited, and fled as soon as he ascended the throne, and the contest with the Qing army had never been as cool as today.

"If you are not around, you should be rewarded! He has been alone in the past few years, and we owe him too much. ”

Speaking of Zhu Cijiao, Queen Wang's heart was so sour that her tears were about to fall.

"Well, he should be rewarded, what should he be rewarded?"

Zhu Youlang seemed to be talking to himself, and it was like asking the queen king.

"This child, the divine map and dream left behind by him, are simply unpredictable prophets, and he has to be counted on if he regains his sight!"

As for rewarding Zhu Ciyu, the smart queen did not say it directly, and only gave Zhu Youlang a hint.

"Yes, the Southern Ming Dynasty is hiding like this, it should be considered as the prince, with the talent that Ji'er has shown, I have to consider making him the prince."

Zhu Youlang looked at the ceiling and thought about it.

"Ji'er is the eldest son, and he is indeed the best candidate for the prince, and now that the army is in chaos, it is better to establish the prince sooner rather than later."

Queen Wang took the opportunity to add another handful of oil.

"Yes, I see."

……

Zhu Youlang took a bath, and the Qing soldiers had retreated ten miles away, and he could sleep peacefully.

The night breeze is gentle, and the night is becoming quieter.

Zhu Youlang gradually fell asleep, and dreamed of Zhu Ciyu again.

He found that Zhu Cijiao had grown a little taller again.

"Ji'er, today's Yongli Army defeated the Qing soldiers, it is your 'five defenses' battle method of war exploits, what reward you want, my father will promise you."

Zhu Youlang couldn't wait to tell Zhu Cijiao about today's battle.

"Giving ideas to the father and being a staff officer is what the son should do, how can he ask for a reward from the father." Zhu Cijiao said modestly.

"The matter of rewards, my father has his own arrangements, how is my son's cultivation in the mountains? Father hopes that you will return soon! ”

The Southern Ming Dynasty court lacked talents, and Zhu Youlang needed a strategic minister like Zhu Cijiao by his side.

"Father, my son-in-law will go back after learning medicine and stealth skills from the white-haired grandfather! It should be soon, probably after the son is seven years old! ”

Zhu Cijiao didn't know exactly when he would be able to return to his parents, so he could only tell his father an approximate time, and he would not be able to come back until the dragon protection system was fully awakened.

"Learn medicine, what kind of medicine?" Zhu Youlang only knew that there were martial arts in the world, but he had never heard of medicinal arts, so he asked in surprise.

"Grandpa White-haired has a lot of powerful medicinal skills, which are not worse than martial arts, such as seeing blood and sealing the throat, five steps down, ecstasy powder, etc., all of which can block thousands of soldiers with one technique."

Zhu Cijiao said that Zhu Youlang had heard of these medicinal techniques, but he had not really seen them.

"Is there really such a medicine in the world?" Zhu Youlang was a little unconvinced, and asked suspiciously.

"Yes, I'm learning from my grandfather, I'll go back after I finish my studies, and I'll show my father in person......"

Zhu Cijiao said, the figure flickered twice, and then disappeared.

This added another item to Zhu Youlang's expectations.

……

When Zhu Youlang woke up, the sky was already bright.

When I came to the court, all the ministers had arrived.

"Humble to the emperor, please be safe."

……

Seeing Zhu Youlang walking into the court, dozens of officials saluted him with a brush.

"Zhong Aiqing is flat, please play if you have something." Zhu Youlang sat on the dragon chair and gently brushed his right hand and said.

"Your Majesty." The ministers are flat.

"Report to the emperor, last night Guilin City was safe, and the Qing troops retreated ten miles, and there was no delay." Zhang Yi, the commander of the military department, stepped forward to report.

"Good! Continue to do a good job in city defense, pay attention to observe the Qing troops, and report any abnormal movements in time. ”

"Huh." Zhang Yi returned to his original position.

Now that the soldiers are coming to the city, Zhang Yi reports that Guilin is safe, and the other ministers have nothing to do.

"Since Zhong Aiqing has nothing to do, then I will propose a matter and discuss the matter of establishing the prince."

Zhu Youlang put the crown prince on the agenda.

"Your Majesty, this prince thinks that the whereabouts of the prince Ci Ji are unknown since he disappeared, and it is too early to discuss the crown prince now."

Xuanguo Gong Jiao Lian took the lead in expressing his views.

"The prince Zhu Cijiao knows his whereabouts, and he is in retreat in the mountains to practice martial arts, and he will soon return from practice."

Zhu Youlang responded to Xuan Guogong.

"Emperor Qi, this minister believes that the establishment of the prince is an important matter for the prince, whether the prince Zhu Cijiao has the potential of the king of a country, whether he will wait for his return, experience and look at it, and it is not too late to establish the prince."

University scholar Wen Yasuzhi also objected.

"Emperor Qi, this minister believes that the prince Zhu Cijiao is a prophet, and he trusted the emperor five days ago, and the Qing troops attacked Guilin on the fifth day of the winter month, and there was no mistake at all, and the minister agreed to be the crown prince."

The governor of Guangxi, Lord Qu Shiyun, deliberately said that "trusting dreams" was "trusting letters".

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials in the hall were shocked, the six-year-old prince could actually predict the siege time of the Qing soldiers, and it could not be said that he was not a superman, a god.

But some people whispered: "Is this a coincidence?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the prince Zhu Cijiao is a strategic genius, and the 'Five Elements' tactics implemented yesterday came from Zhu Cijiao's hands, and he was established as the crown prince, which is well deserved."

Minister Zhang Tongchang stepped forward and made Zhu Cijiao the crown prince.

If Zhu Cijiao predicted that the Qing army's attack on the city was a coincidence, then it should not be a coincidence that he proposed the "five elements" tactics of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Hearing that the "Five Elements" tactics were from Zhu Ciyi's hands, everyone in the hall was stunned, do we have such a prince in the Southern Ming Dynasty?

"God bless Nanming! Da Ming is saved! Please ask the emperor to appoint Zhu Ciyi as the crown prince! Xuanguo Gong Jiao Lian knelt on the ground with his hands together.

"Please make the emperor a crown prince."

"Please make the emperor a crown prince."

……

A full house of civil and military officials knelt down one after another, asking the emperor to appoint Zhu Ciyi as the crown prince.

"The Qing army is about to attack the city, in order to protect the successors of the Ming Dynasty, the sixth court of the fourth year of the Yongli winter moon discussed together, and set Zhu Cijiao as the prince of Huaishou, if there is an accident, please help the ministers to help him supervise the country."

Zhu Youlang announced.

The war is imminent, Zhu Youlang is ready to be martyred, this is good intentions!

"The emperor is wise, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"The emperor is wise, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

……

At this time, Zhu Cijiao in the deep mountains was standing on the side of a mountain whistling "calling bees", and the poisonous bees within a radius of several miles heard his call and gathered towards him.

These poisonous bees seemed to be listening to Zhu Cijiao's whistle changes, sometimes gathering, sometimes scattering, sometimes flying high, sometimes diving......

Zhu Ciyi seemed to be training thousands of horses.
