Chapter 421: Apocalypse is critically ill

"It's better to be sparse, since King Xin's succession is inevitable, Gonggong Wei should try to form an intimate relationship with King Xin."

Huo Weihua persuaded: "Blindly blocking it will cause dissatisfaction with King Xin." ”

Wei Zhongxian nodded, reluctantly agreeing with Huo Weihua's words.

Seeing that Wei Zhongxian seemed to be troubled, Huo Weihua and Xu Xianchun left very interestingly.

Coming out of the East Factory, they rode back to the Ya.

For a while, the two of them walked slowly according to the bridle.

"It's still Cui Shangshu who understands the situation." Xu Xianchun sneered and said, "It's been a long time coming. ”

What he said was that Cui Chengxiu invited himself to be the civilian officer of Jinzhou Town as the secretary of the military department.

"yes." Huo Weihua felt the same way, "I have three things in Jinzhou Town, eating, sleeping and going to the toilet. ”

Xu Xianchun couldn't help but laugh when he heard this "vulgar" words.

"I used to think it was boring, but now I think about it."

Huo Weihua said with a smile: "Ji Yong also wanted to be transferred to Jinzhou Town as a supervisor, but he was vetoed by Gonggong Wei. Ning Jin is making such a fuss now, and Ji Yong is guilty. ”

"Yang Chengying is such a person who loves to make money, should we give him some money and send his family to him?"

Xu Xianchun proposed.

Li Dynasty's deceased minister Li Erzhan, his children are in Jinzhou Town.

Huo Weihua smiled bitterly: "It's late." Sending people to Jinzhou now will only be suspected by Father-in-law Wei of being disloyal to him. Gonggong Wei is uncomfortable in his heart, you and I don't want to make trouble. ”

Hearing this, Xu Xianchun dispelled this thought.

The two of them already felt that Wei Zhongxian's good days were over.

In fact, it is.

In the palace, Empress Zhang Yan visited the emperor's illness.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was already completely gone, and when he heard Zhang Yan's voice, he slowly opened his eyes.

"Queen...... Ahem......"

"Your Majesty must take care of the dragon's body, and there are many affairs in the country waiting for Your Majesty to deal with."

"Ahem...... Queen, I can't do it anymore. Zhu Youxiao shook his head.

"Your Majesty......"

"Don't cry, the queen has a confidant who wants to explain to the queen to do it for me."

"Your Majesty, please say, the concubine will be done."

Zhang Yan hurriedly wiped away the tears in her eyes with a handkerchief, and waved her hand to ask the palace maid and the eunuch to step down.

Only she and the emperor were left in the huge dormitory.

Zhu Youxiao said: "Empress, who can inherit the throne after a hundred years, and ensure that my Ming dynasty is forever!" ”

"Your Majesty already has someone in mind?" Zhang Yan asked.

Zhu Youxiao nodded: "You have to believe in the king." You sent a message to Wei Zhongxian and ordered him to escort King Xin into the palace. ”

Zhang Yan frowned slightly and said, "Wei Zhongxian may not be willing to do it. After all, he and the Hakka family made a statement, forcing Cao Huachun to guard the mausoleum. King Xin relied heavily on Cao Huachun, and after succeeding to the throne, he would inevitably use Cao Huachun to abandon Wei Zhongxian. ”

"Whether King Xin uses Wei Zhongxian or Cao Huachun, or other close ministers, it will be a hundred years after me."

Zhu Youxiao was very sober at this moment, "But for now, we must stabilize Wei Zhongxian and let King Xin ascend the throne smoothly." ”

Zhang Yan suddenly realized: "The concubine will do it." "Stand up and leave.

Zhu Youxiao grabbed her sleeve, "If there is an accident, I have an edict of succession hidden under my pillow, you can take it out and act according to the edict." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yan nodded and walked out of the hall.

Looking at the queen's distant back, Zhu Youxiao suddenly felt that he had done a lot of wrong things before, and now it was too late to make amends, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Zhang Yan left the Qianqing Palace and went straight to the celebrant eunuch.

Coincidentally, Wei Zhongxian had just returned to the celebrant from the East Factory.

On the one hand, he asked the Hakka family to hurry to the Qianqing Palace to guard, and on the other hand, he planned to hand over the celebrant eunuch to his confidant eunuch.

In the future, he will also stay in the Qianqing Palace and will not leave.

Before he finished explaining to his henchmen, he saw the queen's guard of honor.

No matter how powerful he is, in the face of the queen, Wei Zhongxian still has to kneel down to greet him in a proper manner.

Especially at this critical time.

"Father-in-law Wei, Your Majesty has a message for this palace to convey to you."

Zhang Yan sat upright and looked ahead.

"Her Royal Highness the Queen has orders, the old slave must do it properly."

Wei Zhongxian knelt down to listen to the admonition in his usual flattering tone.

"Your Majesty said, looking at the ministers, only you are the one worthy of delivery."

Zhang Yan endured the disgust in her heart and said, "Your Majesty asked you to quickly escort King Xin into the palace without hesitation." ”

Wei Zhongxian's eyes froze, he didn't expect things to come so quickly, completely disrupting his steps.

"What? Is Grandpa Wei in trouble? Zhang Yan asked lightly.

"Nope. The old slave went out of the palace to receive His Royal Highness the letter into the palace and meet His Majesty. ”

Wei Zhongxian kowtowed and said tremblingly.

"Hmm." Zhang Yan got up and left the celebrant eunuch.

When the queen walked away, Wei Zhongxian got up and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Now it was too late to summon Huo Weihua and Xu Xianchun to discuss, so he had to go out of the palace to pick up the letter from Wang Zhu Youzhen.

It turned out that according to the rules of the imperial court, King Shin had reached the age of marrying.

The Ministry of Rites began construction of the Xinwang Mansion in Beijing in February, and on May 19, the list of candidates for Princess Xin's title was released. On June 21, Zhang Yan, who presided over the selection of concubines, thought that Zhou Kui's daughter was very suitable and chose his daughter as the princess.

On June 25, he moved out of the palace, and only a dozen days have passed since today.

Wei Zhongxian personally took Dongchang Fanzi and Jinyiwei to King Xin's mansion to receive King Xin into the palace.

This move frightened Zhu Youzhen, who was the king of the domain.

I had heard that the imperial brother was in poor health, and Wei Zhongxian was powerful, and now he suddenly came to pick him up in person, and he couldn't help but be afraid.

"The holy dragon is sick, and there is no dragon under his knees. The first emperor has several living princes, only His Royal Highness the Holy Lord and King Xin. ”

Gao Qiqian persuaded him to enter the palace quickly: "The Holy Lord summoned His Highness, this is to pass on to His Highness." Such an important event must not be missed because of hesitation. ”

"Wei Zhongxian is arrogant and domineering, and his minion Li Yongzhen is arrogant and can do anything."

Wang Chengen felt that it was inappropriate: "Wei Zhongxian's eyes and ears are all over the palace, if he enters the palace and jumps into the net by himself, it will be troublesome if he wants to come out again." ”

Zhu Youzhen thinks that Wang Chengen's words are reasonable.

Because one of Wei Zhongxian's henchmen, Li Yongzhen, the chief eunuch of the celebrant and the chief eunuch, is really not a thing.

From the Jianxin Palace, Zhu Youzhen can feel it.

The Xinwang Mansion was built in February, completed in April, and you can move in in June.

How is this done?

It turned out that King Rui, King Hui, and King Gui had already left for the vassal kingdom, and the house where they lived was empty.

Li Yongzhen's Xinwang Mansion built on the basis of King Rui's mansion was built to fill his own pockets in a big way, making the buildings and utensils of Xinwang's Mansion extremely simple.

Even the emperor's own brother dared to treat him like this, they couldn't do anything!

"It is precisely because of Wei Zhongxian's power that His Royal Highness will be safe when he enters the palace."

Gao Qiqian retorted: "Everyone in the world knows that King Xin was introduced into the palace by Wei Zhongxian. If something happened to King Xin, the people of the world would only think that Wei Zhongxian had done it, and at that time, he would die without a place to be buried. ”

Zhu Youzhen was still very hesitant.

After all, these are all later words, and if a person dies, he will be a hundred, how can he know this.
