Chapter 252: King Fu's Ambition II

Seeing this, Chen Cao immediately stretched out his hand to support King Fu, who knew that he underestimated his strength, and was actually carried down by King Fu's body.

Liu Shuang and Sun Dewen, who was standing aside, hurriedly stepped forward to help, and the two of them used a lot of strength to pull King Fu up.

Chen Cao's face flushed, he was pressed by King Fu: "The prince is exempt, this edict does not need to kneel, please see it in person." ”

Liu Shuang took the yellow silk with both hands, and then carefully dismantled it, Zhu Changxun glanced at Chen Cao and said, "You haven't seen it?" ”

Chen Cao shook his head awe-inspiringly: "Although I haven't read it, the person who drafted the edict is Wei Zhongxian, and I know the content even if I don't read it." ”

After Liu Shuang opened it, he handed the edict to King Fu, Zhu Changxun opened it and read it word by word.

"It's... This..."

After seeing the end, after seeing that the two seals of Zhu Youxiao's big seal and the national seal were stamped, Zhu Changxun was sure that this edict was not an edict, but a real edict with validity.

In the past, the holy decree of the Ming Dynasty must be stamped with the official seal of the cabinet, and there must be the official seal of the General Political Division, and the holy decree issued by the General Political Department is effective, but the emperor's funeral came suddenly, so the edict does not need the big seal of the cabinet and the General Political Department, but only needs the emperor's own big seal and the national seal, which can become an effective edict, and this edict is similar to the emperor's decree.

The difference is that the emperor's edict does not have a certain effect, but the edict is different, the edict written in a hurry does not need to be backed up, and the edict system implemented by the 'I Qing Dynasty' is just to prevent the prince from rebelling.

After reading the edict, Zhu Changxun's hands trembled, his face was flushed, and he was panting like a cow, Liu Shuang stood aside and couldn't see the edict being true, but he didn't know what the edict was written, which made his prince so out of shape.

"Lord Wang?"

Liu Shuang shouted tentatively, who knew that Zhu Changxun screamed, and then cried loudly...

"The First Emperor..."

King Fu's cry had been analyzed once in advance before he came, but now Chen Cao was still quite surprised after witnessing it with his own eyes, Zhu Youxiao was his nephew, and he actually cried so really, but if you think about it carefully, isn't it okay for the throne to be passed on to you?

Isn't Emperor Jiajing also the heir of Xiaozong? He is just a cousin with Emperor Wuzong?

King Fu's snot was crying, and when Sun Dewen saw this, he quickly took out a silk silk and wiped it for King Fu: "Don't be too sad, the slave is distressed..."

Zhu Changxun sobbed for a long time, and then said with tears in his eyes: "Chen... Liang Guogong, the first emperor is serious... Seriously..."

The content of the edict was compiled by Huang Chunyao himself, and naturally it also belonged to the edict, but it was stamped with a big seal, but as everyone knows, Wei Zhongxian's blank holy decree with a big seal was so useful.

Liu Shuang was instructed to watch the edict, but the content still surprised him.

"I know that my illness is difficult to heal, I think of my ancestors' foundation, I feel very anxious, King Xin is young, embarrassed by the great responsibility of the society, the former Han Dynasty Yinjian is not far away, I can't bear the collapse of the society;

The Three Emperors' Uncle Fu Wang Chang Xun is humble and prudent, good in courtesy and filial piety, virtuous and sincere, noble in character, deep Xiao Xiao bows, will be able to inherit the unification, succeed me to the pole, and succeed the emperor;

This edict should be promulgated to the whole world, and the salty envoy will hear it..."

When King Fu was still in the Ten Princes' Mansion, he was the arm of the Donglin Party, and the common goal of the two groups of people was to ascend to the throne, but at that time, the government was tightly held by the Zhejiang Party, and the Donglin Party frequently fell into the wind, and finally the Wanli Emperor had to abandon his favorite son Zhu Changxun, the third son, and instead set up the eldest son who was fat and slightly disabled as the emperor.

At that time, there were no less than 20 people who were killed by the court staff in this matter, and the turmoil was very serious.

And now the government is in the hands of the Donglin Party, although they are friendly with King Fu, but after all, Zhu Youzhen has ascended the throne, and he has a lot of trust in the Donglin Party, even if King Fu takes out this edict now, it can only be a joke, and under the edict, he, the prince, has nothing to do.

However, Chen Caoda did not put much effort into the edict from the beginning, and his main attention was only one, that is, to borrow the banner of King Fu, and if he wanted to seize power in chaos, there was only one way.

Of course, Huang Chunyao also mentioned adding a sentence of Chen Cao's assistance to the edict, but Chen Cao resolutely denied that after the incident, he would be an accomplice, and if he wanted to abandon the banner of King Fu in the future, he would fall into the whirlpool of public opinion, so it was better to save this trouble.

"Duke of Liangguo, why didn't this edict show people after the death of the first emperor?"

In the face of Zhu Changxun's inquiry, Chen Cao told him about the last conversation with Xu Hongji, and then echoed: "According to Wei Zhongxian, before the emperor's great trip, Sun Chengzong contacted the nobles in charge of the five armies' governor's mansion, and the British prince was guarding the imperial city with soldiers.

However, after the first emperor left this edict, Empress Zhang did not agree to the prince's accession to the throne, so she discussed with the people of the Donglin Party to still believe in the king's accession to the throne. ”

"It's that slut again..."

Zhu Changxun was furious when he heard Empress Zhang's name, obviously, he must have suffered a loss when he went to Beijing this time, otherwise how could he hate a widowed woman so much.

Chen Cao didn't ask the reason, and continued: "The death of the first emperor is really too strange, but the prince should also know that now the Donglin Party is wantonly purging the eunuch party, and all the basins of the death of the first emperor are detained on the head of the eunuch party headed by Wei Zhongxian. ”

King Fu naturally sees it clearly, but the Donglin Party has a good relationship with him, if he frames the Donglin Party like this, then even if he has the intention of usurping the throne in the future, he can't do so, because the Donglin Party, as the master of the court situation, is impossible to contact people who eat inside and outside, such as Ruan Dayue.

"You can not doubt the edict, but now that someone has sat on the throne, the prince still has to think twice about this matter..."

Liu Shuang interrupted the conversation between King Fu and Chen Cao regardless of etiquette, the purpose was to make King Fu must carefully understand the situation and not act recklessly.

Sure enough, after hearing Liu Shuang's words, Zhu Changxun collapsed immediately, he was born timid and afraid of things, although he was loved by Emperor Wanli since he was a child, but the discipline was also very strict, and now let him rebel and seize the throne, and he will stage a drama of his uncle seizing the throne of his nephew, which was staged once after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and now it is coming again, which is a test for Jiangshan Sheji.

Huang Chunyao gave Chen Cao a look, and after Chen Cao understood, he said: "Lord, the minister is deeply favored by the first emperor, and he will never dare to forget it, but now the emperor sitting in the court is suspected of killing the king, how can such people be the lord of the world, and the minister is separating Songjiang in order to avenge the first emperor." ”

Although Zhu Changxun was stupid, he didn't understand Chen Cao's words, and immediately became excited, and then trembled: "You want to rebel..."

Chen Cao didn't give him a clear answer, but continued: "No matter who is the emperor in this big tomorrow, as long as it is recommended by the Donglin Party, the ministers will not recognize it." ”

Hiss...

Even Liu Shuang gasped, Chen Cao just didn't admit the rebellion, which was also a clear expression.

Out of the door of the restaurant, Chen Cao glanced back at the closed door, and then whispered: "Do as planned..."

Gao Qiqian had already fallen asleep, and from time to time he got a piece of news that shocked him: King Fu had secretly met with people from Songjiang.

The news is true, but Gao Qiqian has received the benefits of King Fu, and now he is embarrassed, if it weren't for the eunuchs under his command to correct his heart, it is estimated that he would have helped King Fu to round things over.

"Father-in-law, Your Majesty hates Songjiang Chen Cao, although Father-in-law sits in the Central Capital, if he has a great merit that can enter the body, it is a small matter to become the celebrant supervisor;

Besides, in addition to our eyeliner in this capital, there are also the eyeliner of the left-behind division and the prefect's yamen, it is difficult to ensure that they don't know, in case they report it first, the father-in-law will have less credit, not to mention, if something big happens, the father-in-law knows about it and does not report it, the consequences are very serious..."

Just these two sentences made Gao Qiqian make up his mind, so he sent someone to meet with the king of Michafu and the person in Songjiang Mansion.

The next day, the shopkeeper of the restaurant was caught in front of Gao Qiqian, kneeling and crying: "The little one really doesn't know, the little one was kicked out when the prince met, but when he was passing by the middle hall, he overheard King Fu shouting in surprise 'Chen, Liang Guogong' four words, and then I didn't really hear it, and the little one didn't dare to stay longer, in case he was caught by the prince, the little one died..."

Gao Qi was shocked, he thought that nine times out of ten the people who King Fu personally met were Chen Cao himself, otherwise, according to King Fu's temperament, Chen Cao himself would definitely let Changshi or Sun Dewen receive him.

"Drag him down and keep him under close guard...

Come on, prepare pen and ink, we have to write a letter..."

When Fuwang's convoy returned to Luoyang, Gao Qiqian's secret letter also arrived in the capital, and Chen Cao also returned to Songjiang in time.

After arriving in Shanghai, Chen Cao went straight to the yamen, and waited after explaining the details of the operation.

Nine days later, Zhao Xinfeng ran into the middle hall of the yamen in a hurry.

"Grandpa is angry, it's a big deal..."

"If you can't tell why, you go and get the punishment..."

"Jingshi news, the emperor issued a decree to apply for King Fu, I heard that the emperor learned that he met with us in private, and he actually scolded King Fu for being a rebel minister, and he had to be confined;

In addition, the eunuch who delivered the decree had already set off for a few days, and said that it would take another day or two to arrive in Luoyang. ”

Chen Cao was excited for a while, but Zhu Youzhen did make a move on King Fu as he had expected before: "Okay, the people who are closely in contact with Luoyang, once we learn that King Fu has been applied, we will do it." ”

"Okay, by the way, Grandpa, Zou Weilian recommended someone."

"Who?"

"Chen Yan, the new head of the Hanlin Academy..."&
