Chapter 438: The Assassin Who Mixed in with the Welcoming Crowd!

For many officials in the capital, Zhu Gaoxian's triumphant class teacher is very popular.

After all, after Zhu Di, the old emperor, suddenly fell seriously ill and died, Zhu Gaoxian, the prince of the East Palace, who was in charge of the army and even had the support of a considerable part of the officials, had a great reputation among the people, and was the out-and-out choice of the Ming Emperor.

As long as Zhu Gaoxian did not die on the Mobei grassland and returned to Beijing safely as soon as possible, he would be able to stabilize the situation in Beijing in an instant, and then succeed to the throne of the Ming Dynasty step by step, grant amnesty to the world, and start a new prosperous dynasty.

But for some officials and clansmen, Zhu Gaoxian's return can almost be regarded as hitting their seven-inch lifeline!

Especially those who had opposed him, secretly manipulated their hands and feet, and even colluded to assassinate Zhu Gaoxian, they were basically blinded......

It is precisely because of this that the squire surnamed Hu was able to rely on his identity and the support of the small circle to wander, persuade, and threaten among these people, and finally barely managed to gather the dead soldiers and equipment to assassinate Zhu Gaoxian this time.

In their opinion, as long as the assassination can be successful, then everything will be fine, and all problems will be solved, and it will not be difficult again.

After all, on their side, in addition to the cabinet and the household ministry, the other five ministries and government offices are all involved.

Even the high-ranking and powerful official Wang Zhi knew this, and although he did not participate, he also sat back and ignored it, happy to see this happen......

In the eyes of many people, Zhu Gaoxian, the prince of the East Palace, is a little too different, and he can even be called shocking!

It has always been the emperor who rules the world with scholars and doctors, how can he be mixed with those poor families and mud legs?

In this big tomorrow, can you still rely on those mud legs to help you govern?

What a mistake!

It is precisely because of this that there is a very peculiar atmosphere in the Jingshi, which faintly makes many people feel uneasy.

And this uneasiness suddenly reached its peak when the Jinyi Guard and the Fifth Army Battalion suddenly entered the city and ordered them to take over all defenses.

The cabinet doesn't matter, this defense was originally used to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from entering the city, but now it is taken over by the Jinyi Guard and the army, which is more secure.

After all, in the eyes of many officials, the Jinyi Guard was a royal eagle dog, and the army was even more arrogant and unreasonable mud-legged and barbarian, and they replaced the Shuntianfu officials and the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division that they were familiar with, which made many officials feel uncomfortable.

And for some people with ill intentions, this move seems a bit earth-shattering!

"Something doesn't look right......"

Seeing the soldiers of the Fifth Military Battalion meticulously inspecting and cleaning up the high-rise buildings on both sides of the roadside, a few people were hiding in the alleys next to them, whispering and their eyes were scattered:

"These hills, all our people have been driven away, and every high point is guarded by soldiers, what can we do?"

"I had the opportunity to mix in high places before, but now I have to give up all of them......

Just when these people were at a loss, a team of non-commissioned officers patrolled here, and the leading officer stared at him, and immediately scolded:

"What are you doing here?"

"Didn't you know that traffic was closed here?"

"Come on, keep it all under control, check the list!"

As the leading officer issued an order, dozens of soldiers behind him immediately stepped forward to make a move, they were all elite soldiers in the three major battalions, and they immediately controlled a few people and pressed them to the ground to obey.

And such a scene happened everywhere in the city from time to time, and the soldiers of the three battalions joined forces with the Jinyi Guard to clean up the route of the triumphant victory of the army tomorrow, and did not let go of any danger.

However, wherever there was a danger to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, whether it was on both sides of the city wall or inside the private houses, soldiers were all sent to guard it closely.

And some sneaky guys, once discovered, were immediately arrested.

……

When the man surnamed Hu and a group of people got the news, they were all dumbfounded.

"Bastard!"

He threw the cup in his hand directly on the ground, and the hot tea splashed all over the floor.

"Let them be careful, be careful, are they all pig's heads?"

"It's good now, there are not enough people, and so many people have been arrested!"

"What else to roll over?"

Everyone was silent, their faces were ugly, and in the end, it was Cui Shilang who was the leader who broke the silence:

"Forget it, if you are caught, you will be arrested, anyway, they are not very important people."

"At least there's no problem on the dead side, as long as no one is caught."

The man surnamed Hu let out a long sigh:

"Master Cui, it's not that I'm impatient, but this kind of thing, it's always good to have a little more strength."

"Assassinating the dead first, and then letting the people outside make a disturbance and disrupt the scene, it is just right to expand the matter and avoid the cabinet from pressing down or locking down the city."

"Only then can we calmly mobilize manpower, create public opinion pressure in the court and the people, force your cabinet to come to power, and our people will be on top to control the situation in the court, and then set up a new king."

"It's good now, things haven't started to be done, and a lot of manpower has been lost, and the other side is a person who is afraid of death, and the protection is tight, how can you do things? How can you still succeed? ”

Seeing him talk like this, Cui Shilang's face was also very ugly, but now that everyone is in the same boat, even if he wants to, he can't get down, so he can only say slowly:

"Since ancient times, if you want to achieve great things, how can it be so easy?"

"Since the dead man did not suffer any losses, he still acted according to the plan."

"We have all received a notice from the cabinet that tomorrow Zhu Gaoxian will lead the army to enter from Andingmen and march all the way to Zhengyangmen for a street parade."

"Although the Jinyi Guard and the army have now taken over the defense and are very strictly investigated, the dead soldiers are mixed in the team to welcome the flowers, and we will guarantee that there will be no major problems."

"As long as Zhu Gaoxian dies under the crossbow, then everything will be fine!"

Everyone also nodded, indeed, no matter how cautious you Zhu Gaoxian are, you must always accept the love of the people, right?

The dead are mixed in with those people, take the opportunity to step forward, and send a few crossbow arrows in a row, and let you have great achievements and prestige, and you will also die!

And as long as Zhu Gaoxian dies, then these people will immediately have a way to live and a chance!

"Everyone," Cui Shilang saw that no one objected, so he said in a deep voice again:

"Success or failure is here!"

"Since that Zhu Gaoxian wants to be unfavorable to us, then we will take the lead and kill him first!" (End of chapter)
