"The achievements of heaven and earth cannot be rushed, and the hard work must be done over time..."
Zhu Changluo raised his head and looked at the sky, misty and rainy, and laughed miserably:
“It’s up to people to plan things, and it’s up to Heaven to make things happen; everything must happen, and it’s natural.”
It's up to people to plan things, and whether they can succeed or not depends on God's will; things are bound to happen, and that's how it should be. No matter how hard you try to prevent it, certain things will still happen. This happens and develops according to the inherent laws of things and cannot be changed.
Zhu Changluo didn't know what to say anymore. He couldn't believe in heaven, let alone people. The truth was that he didn't have this destiny, so he couldn't change anything. On the contrary, it made the future worse.
Just when Zhu Changluo was laughing loudly, the elders of the cabinet and the soldiers of the flag guard finally followed the sound and found West Erchang Street.
Zhu Changluo first looked up to the sky and then bowed his head. He stood here without saying a word and his expression was pale.
When the elders in the cabinet saw this scene, they didn't know what happened here. They also saw that the emperor and the others were all fine, so they calmed down and said:
"It's great that your Majesty and His Highness are both fine."
The elders of the cabinet came belatedly with their men, and bowed down in large numbers. The standard-bearer guards and the Han generals knelt down on one knee and confessed their guilt.
Emperor Wanli was still in the revolving lantern just now, but he finally woke up.
Evil God? The three elders in the cabinet looked at each other and thought of the fire spirits that had escaped before.
They had not seen the Three Gods of Fire and Song Wuji, let alone Lord Fire. They had no idea what was happening in the harem.
"The eldest prince came in, did you see him?"
Emperor Wanli said something specifically, and the cabinet ministers quickly replied:
"The eldest prince went into the fire alone before. He was worried that your majesty would be in danger and put himself in danger. It was his filial piety that moved the gods of heaven and earth... Could it be that your majesty was angry because the eldest prince entered the Sixth Palace in the West..."
"Is that so? You are innocent. Get up...the evil god is dead. Thanks to the Taoist priest of Longde Hall for saving my life."
"The mastermind has shown up."
Emperor Wanli's tone was very strange, and what he said made the three elders even more confused.
Of course, the three cabinet ministers quickly understood.
Zhu Changluo was prompted by Ji Xiang. Although he was still confused, he gave up completely and said to Emperor Wanli:
"I am heartbroken and ready to let you do whatever you want."
Zhu Changluo's words made Emperor Wanli laugh, like a declaration of victory, but also like a regret:
"Yes, if you lose, of course you have to let me handle it! I really didn't expect that you actually have such a powerful strategy. It was almost, almost, Brother Chang, you almost killed me! "
"You are right. You are the child of a palace maid, and I am also the child of a palace maid. If I can sit on the throne, then you can sit on the throne too! Emperor Longqing didn't like me back then, but I became the emperor! Now that I don't like you, you He almost became an emperor."
"It's a pity that compared to me, you are a little less planning and a little less lucky."
"God has a decree. If it weren't for God's help, tonight all the country's power will be destroyed, the battle will be lost, and none of the nails on the gate of the Forbidden City will move. In this huge palace, except for the accident in Longde Hall, where else would anyone come? Help me?"
"It's because you were not fully prepared and didn't know that there is great power in the Longde Palace!"
Emperor Wanli also looked slightly crazy. Although he himself was not aware of this change, the lucky person was the winner.
The three cabinet ministers already understood the situation and their faces turned pale:
"Your Highness, the eldest prince, could it be that the fire tonight is..."
"I put it there!"
Zhu Changluo opened his hands to welcome the wind and rain. At this time, the rain was getting lighter and the wind was subduing. It was the time for the spell that was about to come.
He looked up and smiled: "Three fire gods burned the back three palaces, and dozens of fire spirits burned the first three palaces! Together with the West Sixth Palace, Longde Hall, four fire gods, and a fire king, I and them Goulian, who spent two or three years planning, is turning the Forbidden City upside down!"
"Only one step away, the sun and moon will reopen!"
The elders looked shocked. They supported Zhu Changluo in the past just because they didn't want to see the country become chaotic when the elders were abolished and the younger ones were established. To say it had anything to do with Zhu Changluo, it didn't have anything to do with it.
But now Zhu Changluo has caused such a huge disaster. What the three elders think of is that this time, the struggle between the country and the country is coming to an end, and the boss will definitely be kicked away. And the fifth brother, Zhu Changxun, is really lying down this time. When you become a prince, you don't know anything, and you will lose money as soon as you wake up.
And Emperor Wanli said to Sange Lao:
"You want to support my eldest son and make him the prince, but look at the Forbidden City now! What does the eldest son of the emperor you support look like?"
"Of course, it's my fault that he became like this. This eleven-year-long dispute over whether the eldest brother should be the prince or the fifth brother should be the prince is finally coming to an end. The end of all this Struggles originate from me; all these chaos originate from me; all these crimes originate from me."
"Today's fire in the Forbidden City burned down all nine palaces and four palaces, and more than 300 people died. It's all my fault!"
Emperor Wanli's voice was sonorous, and he had sinned against himself. The elders of the Three Pavilions immediately bowed down. At this time, they should comfort the emperor, but how should they comfort him? The battle over the foundation of the country is essentially a war of words between the emperor and the civil servants!
Even if he wanted to help the emperor find the steps, he couldn't think of anything to say for a while.
Emperor Wanli's tone was low, but gradually became louder: "I have sent someone to notify Beizhen Fusi. Brother Chang agreed and left me alone. Do you want to plead for him? Please plead quickly!"
"If you don't beg for mercy now, I will arrest anyone who dares to beg for mercy later!"
Emperor Wanli glared and spoke viciously. The elders of the three pavilions did not speak. They were silent and just looked at the eldest prince with regret.
Emperor Wanli's chest rose and fell, and he calmed down his emotions, then slowly said to Zhu Changluo:
"Brother Chang, you can no longer be the prince and have committed a serious crime again. Although we will take you to Beizhen Fu, we will not kill you because you are still a member of the Ming Dynasty clan. Therefore, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty clan, you It’s time to go to Fengyang... Go to Fengyang Zhu’s house and never come back.”
There are three families in the world, the Kong family in Shandong, the Zhang family in Jiangxi, and the last family is the Zhu family in Fengyang.
Fengyang is the hometown of Ming Taizu, and now there is a high wall of Fengyang, the last of the three families in the world. The Zhu family clan gathered here are all sinners exiled by the Ming royal family.
And there is a general name here - feudal king's hell.
Zhu Changluo smiled. The first person locked up in the Fengyang Zhu family was the son of Emperor Jianwen. Some people dare not go to Zhu's house in Fengyang even if they want to kill themselves.
But Zhu Changluo didn't think so. He even showed a relieved expression:
"The Forbidden City is also a prison, and the land of Fengyang is also a prison. There is no difference! If I am not for the prince, not for the world, and not for those things that are destined to be impossible, I will be hated by heaven!... ...I am an incompetent person and now I can only live for myself.”
"You haven't been to court for nine years, you live in the harem, and you draw a plot of land as a prison. What's the difference between you and those people in Fengyang! Hahahaha!"
Zhu Changluo burst out laughing, and Emperor Wanli had a splitting headache.
