Chapter 18: Chongzhen's version of the change of seizing the door
"Minister, Zhu Chunchen, the governor of Jingying, is ordered to see my emperor and bow to Wan'an."
"Minister, the assistant Jingying Rong Zheng Lu Wanxue is ordered to see, knock on my emperor's holy bow Wan'an."
When the two occasions sounded in the warm pavilion one after another, Zhu Youzhen, who was sad and frightened, had already walked quickly in front of Zhu Chunchen, picked up the latter and said: "The Duke of the Kingdom can be regarded as coming, I, I can be regarded as waiting for the Qing, and Lu Qing's family, please get up, please get up." ”
Zhu Chunchen got up and saw Zhu Youzhen so panicked, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why is Your Majesty worried?" ”
Wang Chengen, who was standing not far away, accosted.
"Grandpa Guo and Assistant Manager Lu don't know that there are traitors in the city who want to rebel."
Lu Wanxue, who had just stood up, subconsciously sighed.
Rebellion?
The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and he has always been cowardly and obedient.
"Cheng Guogong will see for himself."
Zhu Youzhen took out a secret report of 'Zhou Yanru' and handed it to Zhu Chunchen, who took it and was also shocked.
Is the Donglin Party crazy?
Assemble private troops, collude with the soldiers and horses of the five cities to seize the city gate, block the Beijing division, and then join forces to enter the palace and force Zhu Youzhen to abdicate the throne.
"The Donglin Party plans to choose a young child from the Zongren Mansion to abolish the throne, I, what is my crime in the world, what is my crime in the ancestors, and I have been so resented by hundreds of officials."
Zhu Youzhen shed tears as soon as he opened his mouth, and pulled Zhu Chunchen to cry: "I know that I am weak in virtue and unworthy of a big position, so after ascending the throne, I devoted myself to studying in the deep palace all day long, and all major affairs of the court and government were handed over to the cabinet and the five military offices.
Why are the hundred officials still dissatisfied with me, and they want to abolish me and support the new monarch, I am terrified and embarrassed, thinking about it, only Qing can protect Sheji, and I hope that Qing will see the feelings of the ancestors accompanying Cheng Zujing to open the country, and help me once. ”
After that, he howled and cried.
Zhu Chunchen was at a loss, so he could only comfort Zhu Youzhen with all his might, and at the same time looked at Lu Wanxue and motioned for him to say a few words.
Lu Wanxue then spoke: "Your Majesty, but you can rest assured, there are ministers waiting there, how can you give these small people the opportunity to do evil, Your Majesty don't worry, the ministers will go out of the city and mobilize the three armies to enter the city to escort them." ”
Zhu Youzhen didn't speak, he still cried non-stop, and finally held Zhu Chunchen's arm out of breath.
"I have listened to Chengguo Gong for everything, and I have entrusted it to Cheng Guogong."
Zhu Chunchen dyed his sleeves with tears and snot, and he didn't feel disgusted at the moment, but he was ecstatic in his heart, and while holding his fists, his words were chiseled.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, minister, you will definitely live up to your holy hopes."
Yu Luo retired and left with Lu Wanxue.
After walking out of the palace, Lu Wanxue showed excitement on his face: "Grandpa Guo, our opportunity has come." ”
Zhu Chunchen was still a little worried at the moment.
"Is the secret report written by Zhou Yanru to His Majesty true? He is also a member of the Donglin Party. ”
"Hasn't Grandpa Guo heard about Nanjing?" Lu Wanxue saw that Zhu Chunchen was confused, so he took the initiative to explain: "The last general has a reason to be in Nanjing, and I heard him say that some time ago Hangzhou arrested an official named Qian Qianqiu, and this Qian Qianqiu was able to win the imperial examination entirely because he bribed Qian Qianyi.
Grandpa Guo knows, whose hands is this money now? ”
"Who?"
"Nanjing Ministry of Rites Shangshu Wen Tiren!"
Zhu Chunchen's words suddenly dawned on him: "So you mean that the Donglin Party is not in harmony within the party." ”
"Wen Tiren wants to use this matter to impeach Qian Qianyi, and he must have an accomplice in Beijing, maybe this Zhou Yanru is. Qian Qianyi was worried that Wen Tiren would not be good for him by sending Qian Qianqiu to Beijing, and intended to rebel and support the new monarch.
Presumably, what exists is the wolf ambition of greedy children for a long time, but he doesn't want to be secretly denounced by Zhou Yanru, and His Majesty is young and cowardly and has no help outside, and the east and west factories have been eliminated so that there is no help inside, so naturally he can only rely on you, Grandpa Guo.
In this way, we have an excuse to transfer troops into the city and clear the king's side and protect the community. At that time, you will be the hero of the salvation of the country and the pillar of the society. ”
The Donglin Party was eliminated, and then the power leaned towards the government and the opposition.
Thinking that after tonight, he would be a supreme minister or even take power alone, Zhu Chunchen couldn't help but get excited.
Although he holds the military power of the Beijing camp, he is still inferior to the Donglin Party in terms of power, but he never expected that the current Donglin Party is not strong enough to do whatever he wants, but he arrogantly made such a big mistake, which gave outsiders a chance.
A good thing, a great thing.
"Ru Cheng, you quickly go out of the city to the big camp, the whole army is on standby, and the prince of your country will go to the Fifth Military Mansion to contact the lords."
"Yes."
The two of them hurriedly planned separately outside the palace, completely unaware of the darkness, dozens of pairs of eyes stared at each other.
In the palace, Zhu Youzhen, who was originally crying, still had a look of panic, and his face was gloomy as water, which made Wang Chengen feel cold.
Come and see, the emperor is lying again, hey.
The secret report of Zhou Yanru that he showed to Zhu Chunchen before was an imitation pen at all.
It was Zhu Chunchen who lied.
"Tonight, let the Xungui Party and the Donglin Party warm up first and blush."
Zhu Youzhen began to practice calligraphy again, gradually relaxing the atmosphere.
The clouds are light and the wind is light, and they are calm.
"Look at the time, say to Luo Yangxing, and let him get ready."
"Yes."
"Also, draw up a decree for me."
Wang Chengen hurriedly prepared, picked up the pen and looked at Zhu Youzhen, waiting for the latter to show him.
“...... At this time of crisis, the Jinyi guard commanded Luo Yangxing to be loyal, escort the rebellion, and cut off the thieves in the military array, unfortunately lost his body, and died martyrdom.
The country lost its pillars, lost its humerus, and was overwhelmed with grief, but posthumously awarded it the Marquis of Yongzhou, the prince and the young master, the governor of Zuodu, and his son Luo Zuochang attacked the lord, and he was crowned with brocade clothes and thousands of households. ”
As Zhu Youzhen said word by word, Wang Chengen's hands began to tremble.
This turned out to be an edict of posthumous sealing.
And the object of the posthumous seal turned out to be Luo Yangxing?
The emperor is planning to get rid of it tonight, along with Luo Yangxing!
This is not difficult to understand, the original assassination case in the Qianqing Palace was written and directed by Luo Yangxing.
He has long been on the must-kill list in Zhu Youzhen's heart!
And Wang Chengen will never know that Zhu Youzhen killed Luo Yangxing, never because of that assassination.
In today's Ming Dynasty, there is not a single innocent!
-----------------
When night falls, everything is lonely.
The watchman walked through the streets and alleys, accurately reporting the time.
Zizheng.
Dense footsteps rang out from all over the streets, and the curious groom turned his head to take a look, and then a cold light swept through his throat, and the gong in his hand fell with a crisp sound.
"Quick."
Jiao Weisheng, the commander of the Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses, supervised the scene, urging the thousands of Donglin Party private troops to leave through the Yongding Gate, but as soon as he opened the city gate, he saw thousands of torches outside the city that was originally as dark as ink.
Lu Wanxue, who was dressed in armor, stood tall on the horse, drew his sword and shouted angrily.
"On the emperor's orders, kill the traitors!"
"Enter the city, kill the thief!"
At this moment, the Terracotta Division and thousands of private troops were all stupid.
