"Your Majesty, someone is coming to the palace. Long live the Lord is critically ill. He asked you to enter the palace quickly. Please hurry..."
Xu Yingyuan hurriedly came in from outside and reached the middle hall of the palace. He didn't have time to salute Zhu Youjian, so he started shouting loudly.
As soon as he finished shouting, he looked up and saw Zhu Youjian's appearance, and he was stunned for a moment.
I saw that the prince had already changed into his court clothes and was standing in the middle hall with a sad look on his face. But he was holding a ledger in his hand, and in front of him were twenty wooden boxes wrapped with iron corners. The lids of the boxes were all open, and they were all full of golden goodies. The fifty thousand taels of gold asked for there!
According to Zhu Youjian's request, these golds were not large gold bricks, but scattered gold nuggets and gold ingots. They were piled up in the box, which made people happy just to look at them.
After the gold arrived, Zhu Youjian asked his close eunuchs Shang Mingfu and Zhou Shizhi to guard it respectively, and each person was responsible for ten large boxes of gold. Before handing the gold to them, they counted it in person and put a seal on it.
And Zhu Youjian also said that when he enters the palace, he will count the numbers himself!
If the number is wrong, haha... don't follow him into the palace!
Unexpectedly, this young man kept his promise and was really counting gold today. Shang Mingfu and Zhou Shizhi each brought a few eunuchs to count each other. In front of Zhu Youjian, they opened boxes one by one and weighed them with a large scale.
Zhu Youjian, on the other hand, took the account book and recorded it himself... It looked like he was not going to be the emperor, he was clearly going to open a business and be the shopkeeper!
When Xu Yingyuan came in, the last two boxes of gold had been counted, and they were indeed accurate.
Zhu Youjian heard Xu Yingyuan's shouting and ignored him. Instead, he said to the eunuchs who had just finished counting the gold: "Well done, exactly. You are the only humerus! Now the world is in turmoil, and the southwest and There are rebels and rebels in the Northeast, and this is the time when we need to cheer up and do our work with sincerity. You follow Gu and work hard, and when the Southwest and Northeast are at peace, I will live in peace with you!"
When a group of eunuchs heard these words, they all bowed their heads and worshiped. They were all very motivated and good eunuchs!
Zhu Youjian also showed his talent - these few decades have not been in vain, he has learned all the tricks of the traitor!
After feeling proud for a moment, he turned to look at Xu Yingyuan who was in a daze and said: "Xu Banban, please take Wang Zuo, Chen Bingzheng, Qi Benzheng, Zhang Chengqing, and Wang Yongnian to follow the lonely king and listen to him at any time."
Then he said to Shang Mingfu and Zhou Shizhi who were leading people to guard the gold: "You two each bring five internal officials to guard and escort the gold... This gold will be of great use if it is brought into the palace with the lonely king." , there must be no loss!”
Shang Mingfu and Zhou Shizhi were both confused after hearing this... This is going to have the world, why can't they part with tens of thousands of taels of gold?
Thinking this in his heart, he didn't dare to say nonsense, but replied in unison: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will not allow this gold to be lost even if my slaves and servants are shattered into pieces."
Zhu Youjian breathed a sigh of relief, then turned back to Xu Yingyuan and said, "Let's go into the palace together!"
Enter the palace and become the emperor!
Today is already the 22nd of August in the seventh year of Apocalypse. It is also the day when Emperor Apocalypse Zhu Youxiaolong controls Bintian. Of course, it is also the day when Zhu Youjian takes over the Ming Dynasty!
Although it was not his first time to become emperor, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but feel excited... After waiting for more than fifty years, this day has finally come!
The emperor didn't do well last time, but this time it's different! Zhu Youjian thought to himself: This time, the traitorous ministers below must know how powerful I am. I am a sage who is more treacherous than the traitorous ministers, more ferocious than the Tatars, and more sage than the traitor!
...
Qianqing Palace, sleeping hall.
The Emperor of Tianqi, Zhu Youxiao, was already exhaling more and inhaling less, but he still held his breath and refused to swallow it... He was really worried!
The important task of the Ming Dynasty was about to be handed over to the 17-year-old King Xin Zhu Youjian. Although Zhu Youjian looks more like a wise emperor than him, Zhu Youxiao, who has been the emperor for seven years, knows that the emperor's job is not easy to do! You can't do it just by looking at it, you have to be wily, cunning, and it's best to lead the troops in person to fight... because none of the civil servants and generals below are reliable when they go to the battlefield!
In addition to worrying about the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao also worried about a few people around him. The beauty queen has been fighting with Wei Zhongxian and Mrs. Laozu for so many years, and both sides wish they could kill each other. When he was alive, he could still comfort both sides and barely survive. As soon as he leaves... what can the fifth brother do?
When he thought of this, Zhu Youxiao glanced feebly in the dormitory. Empress Zhang, Concubine Ren Huang, Concubine Wang Liang, Concubine Duan Chun, and several other nobles had already arrived. In addition, Wei Zhongxian and Mrs. Fengsheng had also arrived long ago.
Everyone was crying silently and looked heartbroken... I wonder if there will be a fight after the heartbreak?
When Emperor Tianqi was thinking of fighting, there was a faint sound of crying in his ears. The sound came from far away and soon reached my ears.
"Wow wow wow... Brother Emperor, Brother Emperor, you have to get well! The Ming Dynasty, billions of people, hundreds of officials and ministers, and my little brother, all have to rely on you to lead... ..."
Zhu Youjian came in crying. He started crying when he entered the Huangji Gate. He almost fainted from crying when he entered the Qianqing Gate. A group of "loyal ministers" who were waiting there for the death of Emperor Tianqi saw it. This scene secretly provoked Brother Thumb-this is a good brother, a true brother and friend!
Zhu Youjian burst into tears and entered the Qianqing Palace. When he saw that Emperor Tianqi couldn't help it, he cried directly on the bedside. He was so sad that he almost died!
"Fifth brother, fifth brother, don't cry, don't cry anymore..." The dying Emperor Tianqi had no choice but to persuade his good brother to stop crying - he still had funeral matters to deal with!
As expected, Zhu Youjian kept his cry and knelt on his brother's bedside, just sobbing secretly.
Tianqi sighed, pointed at his wife, Empress Zhang, and said to Zhu Youjian: "Fifth brother, if I don't give it, the Ming Dynasty will be left to you. You are more diligent than me and do your job well. I have nothing wrong with you." Don’t worry...it’s just that I and your sister-in-law have been together for so many years and we haven’t left a son or a half. If I leave, what will she do?”
Zhu Youjian glanced at his sister-in-law who was crying so hard... What a good sister-in-law!
"Brother Emperor," Zhu Youjian looked away and continued to speak while sobbing, "Brother I can't let you and your eldest sister-in-law have no children... When I have an eldest son, I will adopt him to you and your sister-in-law. Let him be the great nephew of the emperor. If I pass the Ming Dynasty to him in the future, if my sister-in-law is still alive at that time, she will be the empress dowager!"
Hearing this, several people present were shocked. Even Emperor Tianqi, who was lying on the bed dying, became energetic!
There is a son...and a wife!
Emperor Tianqi was a Ming Dynasty man and a feudal emperor. Of course he wanted a son! If you don't have one yourself, you can only hope to get one from your brother's house. But brother Zhu Youjian doesn't have a son either... and no one knows how many he can have? Even though one of them came out so generously, the eldest son came out anyway.
There is no better brother in the world than this!
Empress Zhang also felt desperate. She was originally worried that Zhu Youjian would lean towards Wei Zhongxian, but now he was willing to give her his unborn eldest son, and also made this eldest son the emperor's nephew... It seems that she didn't I love this good brother for nothing!
On the side, Mrs. Feng Sheng, the Hakka family, was so frightened that her face turned pale... There were many short-lived emperors in the Ming Dynasty! If King Xin died a few years after he ascended the throne and left a son for Queen Zhang to be the Queen Mother, would she have to let Queen Zhang beheaded alive?
Wei Zhongxian was also frightened. He originally thought that Empress Zhang would become cold once Zhu Youxiao died, but who knew that she might still become Empress Dowager Zhang!
If there really comes a day, he Wei Zhongxian will not be able to have his whole family beheaded?
Emperor Tianqi didn't think too much, just nodded the Hakka family with his hand, and said to Zhu Youjian: "Fifth brother, Mrs. Fengsheng is my nanny, I was raised by her... It's just these Nian was a little indulgent to her and made her do a lot of wrong things. I can protect her while I'm alive, but what will she do if I'm gone?"
Zhu Youjian glanced at the Hakka family, and then said to Tianqi: "Brother, don't worry, brother Huang's nanny is my brother's nanny. Brother Huang indulges her, but I will not indulge her anymore. From now on, we will keep her in In Xian'an Palace, all supplies are as usual, but she is not allowed to go out anymore."
"Okay, that's it..." Emperor Tianqi felt relieved and let out a long breath. His eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally they closed together and could no longer be opened... .
Emperor Tianqi finally passed away!
The era of Zhu Youjian has arrived again!
