The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the Qianqing Palace was lively again.

The important courtiers led by Wan An, the first assistant of the cabinet, were summoned, and through the thick bead curtain, they performed the courtesy of Zhu Jian on the dragon bed.

Whether it is sincere or false, now that His Majesty is about to die, many officials have shed tears, and even pinched their thighs and kept sobbing.

In the face of this group of heartbroken ministers, Li Rong, the eunuch of the celebrant seal, whispered the holy will and said: "Your Majesty said, in case the world is turbulent and the capital suddenly changes, please move to the Dongnuan Pavilion to discuss the defense matter with the Queen Mother!" ”

The transfer of imperial power is undoubtedly the top priority, and the most important thing now is undoubtedly the deployment of the Beijing Division, Zhu Jianshen is indeed a very clear monarch.

"Wait for the order!" Wan An hoped that Zhu Jianshen would be healed, and he kowtowed very sadly.

The important ministers who were summoned to the palace this time were the first assistant Wan An, the second assistant Liu Ji, Zhou Hongmo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Yu Zijun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Li Zixing, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Xu Pu, a scholar of Hanlin, etc., who already represented the backbone of the civil official group.

Wan An was about to take the officials present to Dongnuan Pavilion, but he suddenly thought of something and said, "Prince? Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince! Immediately summon His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the palace to accompany him! ”

"Just now, the Queen Mother has sent someone to the Prince's Mansion! Wan Ge Lao, please! Chen Zhun, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor and the supervisor of the East Factory, glanced at Wan An playfully, but raised his hand and made a gesture of please.

When Liu Ji saw this boss who realized it later, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, this Shoufu was really old and confused.

Wan An, who was over seventy years old, realized that he had indeed snubbed the prince, and couldn't help patting his forehead in annoyance, looking dejected and going to Dongnuan Pavilion.

Once this matter is used by someone with a heart, then it will definitely annoy Xinjun, and I am afraid that his position will really be lost at that time.

The Holy Will came to the Prince's Mansion, and this peaceful Prince's Mansion also had a small wave.

Although we all know that today's saints are in the prime of life, in addition to Ming Taizu and Ming Taizong, the lifespan of Mingrenzong Zhu Gaochi is 48 years old, the lifespan of Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji is 37 years old, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen is 37 years old, Ming Dynasty Zong Zhu Qiyu is 29 years old, and today's Shengshang is 40 years old this year.

According to this law, then the saints today can be regarded as "old".

The eunuchs and palace maids here can be regarded as people from the dragon, and after realizing that the crown prince is likely to inherit the throne, they finally understand who should be the master of this house.

Qin Conggui is the godson of Qin Ji, the eunuch in charge of the Prince's Mansion, and when he learned that someone from the palace was coming, he immediately ran to the inner house to tell Zhu Youji the news.

Zhu Youji's face looked carefree, so he stopped the brush in his hand, and his eyes suddenly became firm: It's finally here!

After all, his own appearance did not produce a butterfly effect, and his own era has come as scheduled.

But I don't know if Zhang Yujiao is still asleep, or if the eunuchs and palace maids in the house have woken up to who should be the owner of this house, and the eyes looking at Zhu Youzhu resolutely became different.

After receiving the holy will, Zhu Youzhu took a sedan chair to the Forbidden City.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and there is a sad atmosphere in the capital at this moment.

Although Emperor Chenghua was no longer a good emperor in the eyes of the civil and official group, for the vast majority of ordinary people, Emperor Chenghua brought them stability and personal security.

In addition to the stability of the border passes, because Emperor Chenghua reused eunuchs to crack down on local corrupt officials and evil gentry, so that their people could have justice.

If it weren't for Liu Daxia's burning of Zheng He's materials and documents to the West, causing Emperor Chenghua's plan to build a treasure ship to go to the West to go to the West, the Ming Dynasty would have been able to trade with the West now.

It is precisely because of this that when they learned that Emperor Chenghua was about to die, the people in the capital did not think it was a good thing.

Zhu Youzhu followed the eunuch to the noon gate and entered the Forbidden City through the left armpit gate of the noon gate.

What greeted me was a spacious square and five white marble golden water bridges in the center, as well as the Fengtian Hall bathed in the morning sun in front of me, and I immediately felt the solemn solemn aura of the royal family in this era.

Although I have visited the Forbidden City in my previous life, standing here at this moment is a completely different feeling, especially when it seems more new and modern.

Zhu Youzhu followed the Minions along the palace road, and soon passed through the Fengtian Palace, the Huagai Palace, and the Jinshen Palace, and then came to the Qianqing Gate.

"Prince, please follow the slave and maid in!" Liang Fang personally came to greet him in front of the Qianqing Gate, and said respectfully to Zhu Youji, who was waiting here.

Zhu Youzhu knew that the eunuch in front of him was the eunuch in charge of the palace's financial power, nodded lightly, and followed the other party into the Qianqing Gate.

Qianqing Gate and Qianqing Palace have a straight Yongdao connection, Yongdao is provided with white marble stone carving railings on both sides, the terrace on both sides displays copper turtles, copper cranes are two each, sundial, Jialiang are each, Baoding is four, and the aragonite platform on the east and west sides is placed on the golden palace of Sheji Jiangshan Mountain.

It is like a magnified version of the quadrangle, the left side is the east wing, the right side is the west wing, and the end of the road is the Qianqing palace on the top of the yellow glazed tile heavy eaves palace.

Because the Qianqing Palace is built on the white marble pedestal, the center of the end of the road is a Dan Majesty, and the left and right sides are white marble steps.

Zhu Youzhu walked through the long corridor, and after stepping on the steps, he entered the main gate of the Qianqing Palace. The front hall is set up with a throne, and the plaque of "respecting heaven and ancestor" is hung above the throne, which is one of the places where the emperor receives ministers.

The Qianqing Palace is nine rooms wide, five rooms deep, more than 20 meters high from the table top to the main ridge, and the building covers an area of about 1,400 square meters. As the first palace in the last three palaces (Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Palace, Kunning Palace), the scale of Qianqing Palace is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Zhu Youzhu followed Liang Fang around the front hall, and soon came to a bedroom in the back, where a faint smell of sandalwood filled the air. It's just that at this time, the bead curtain hangs down, and I can't see the faces of the people in the dragon bed clearly.

"The eldest son respectfully asks His Father, His Majesty the Emperor, Saint Ann!" Zhu Youzhu faced the supreme emperor, and also knelt down in a proper manner.

Zhu Jianshen had become very weak at this time, but it was Liang Fang who said: "Holy bow! Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty has asked you to come in and answer! ”

Zhu Youzhu walked into the inner room and finally saw the legendary Emperor Chenghua. It's just that he is less than forty years old, but he has dyed a lot of gray hair on his head, and his facial features are already extremely thin.

Zhu Jianshen hadn't eaten for many days, and his lips were cracked at the moment, but when he saw his son appear, he barely showed a smile on his face.

Although the son in front of him is not his ideal successor, he is his own son after all, and with this kind of lenient character, he must be able to make the civil official group feel at ease to help govern the Zhu family.

Zhu Jianshen held Zhu Youji's hand, and said sincerely: "I can't do anything, I can discuss everything with the Queen Mother in the future, and our Zhu family's country will be handed over to you!" ”

In the East Warm Pavilion, the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder at this time.

"Queen Mother, just order the Twelve Marquis to strengthen the overseers today, and it is taboo to transfer generals in battle!"

"Definitely! Today, the hearts of the people in the capital are ups and downs, the hearts of the 12 regiments and battalions are in turmoil, and the world is in turmoil if the capital is unstable! Today, we must transfer a credible person to ensure the safety of the Jingshi! ”

"Lord Yuanfu, Wang Zhi, the former commander of the 12th Regiment Battalion, has a very high prestige in the army, and it is rumored that he has recently sneaked back to Beijing, and he must be wary of rebellion!"

……

Since Empress Dowager Zhou planned to reappoint the commander of the 12 regiments and battalions, this move was immediately opposed by officials headed by Wan An, the first assistant of the cabinet, but this decision was strongly supported by the officials headed by Liu Ji, the second assistant.

Although Wan An and Liu Ji have been friends in the same year for the thirteenth year of orthodoxy, they have worked together in the cabinet for many years. It's just that the two powerful ministers are now drifting apart, especially Wan An's defection to Wan Guifei to become a flattering party, and Liu Ji, who cherishes feathers, has slowly become the leader of Qingliu.

Now seeing that Emperor Chenghua is about to collapse, the contradictions between the two sides naturally intensify.

Empress Dowager Zhou took advantage of the rumors that Wang Zhi had sneaked back to the capital, and immediately said conclusively: "Your Majesty is seriously ill today, to prevent traitors from being demons, the twelve regiments and battalions should be redeployed to command the envoys!" Father-in-law Qian has just submitted a dispatch list, and the mourning family thinks that there is no problem, if you have no objections, the military department will submit it to Your Majesty for decision! ”

Yu Zijun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, heard the Empress Dowager Zhou mention the Ministry of War in his charge, so he understood why he was called into the palace, and dared to love that this court is chess every step of the way!

In the specific drills of the 12th regiment and battalion, it was resolutely completed by the commanders of each battalion. Now Qian Yi, the commander of the 12th regiment battalion, obeys the Empress Dowager Zhou, if the Empress Dowager Zhou controls the twelve commanders again, then she will completely control this Beijing army.

With such an appointment, would His Majesty, who has always been shrewd, agree to this appointment?

"The minister respectfully obeys the decree of the Great Queen!" Liu Ji turned his head and glanced at Wan An, and even the people who led him expressed their support for the authentic way.
