Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 932 Zhu Cihong's Choice
"Hahahaha! Very good! You are really good!" Zhu Cihong suddenly sat on the dragon chair and laughed.

Now he has mixed feelings in his heart, the one kneeling in front of him is his trusted minister, and the one they want to put to death is his elder brother who once turned Daming back.

But what is he guilty of?
When his father was there, Zhu Cihuang knew that these burdens were not what Liu Hongjian wanted, but were imposed by his father. In the past few years, he has also followed suit. Only in this way did Ming's Zhongxing make him kneel down in front of him. The ministers living in peace are enjoying the benefits of peace.

They hold the salary of the imperial court and enjoy the glory brought by power, but now they want to kill the person who brought them all this.

Especially Zhang Tianlu, the second assistant, and Cheng Zhi, who was also a member of the cabinet, these two teachers who used to be highly respected by him, but they also stood on the opposite side of him in this matter.

Isn't it good now?Does he have to take back all his rights and hand them over to you?
He was angry, depressed, and mournful. Facing the ministers who were in step, he suddenly felt the emotions of his father when he was the emperor.

But he was not in the same situation as his father back then, he dared to do what his father dared not do!
Zhu Cihong stood up and scanned the courtiers in the hall one by one, then fixed his eyes on Zhang Tianlu, the second assistant to the cabinet.

"I ask you, do you really think that King Qin is guilty and deserves to be punished?" Zhu Cihong stepped down the imperial steps, walked up to Zhang Tianlu and said calmly.

At this time Zhang Tianlu also became like the huge sea last night, with cold sweat on his forehead, just now when Zhu Cihong looked up to the sky and laughed, he had a premonition that something was wrong.

But he is the main messenger of this operation. What Zhu Cihong said about you is actually him, and the colleagues behind him are also waiting for his signal.

But... what would happen if he really insisted on his opinion?

He didn't know, he really didn't know, Zhu Cihong was no longer the Zhu Cihong five years ago, not that good student who would listen to what Zhu Cihong said, and now he didn't even know what Zhu Cihong really thought.

"Return to Your Majesty, I... I will listen to your Majesty." After Zhang Tianlu said this, his head almost fell into his crotch.

He knew that after saying this sentence, the prestige he had accumulated among the courtiers for many years was lost, and he would even be ridiculed by his colleagues who once relied on him for being spineless.

In fact, Zhang Tianlu was also very bitter in his heart. He thought that he was a Jinshi in the ten years of Wanli and 40 years in the Han Dynasty. He stayed in the Imperial Academy for eight years.

Then it was a long wait before finally looking forward to the opportunity to enter the court and the cabinet. It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Think of the real unbearable weight.

He compromised, which puzzled Cheng Zhi and other officials of the Eastern Palace faction behind him, but Cheng Zhi understood after thinking for a while. Although he was upset, no one in the hall dared to speak.

There was silence, three or four breaths of silence, and finally one person raised his head.

"I report to Your Majesty, for the sake of the Great Ming Dynasty, for the sake of the Zhu family, and for the common people of the world. I believe that His Royal Highness the King of Qin must step down as the Regent and Marshal of the Army and Horses. I... die to remonstrate!"

Li Banghua's old voice resounded throughout the hall, overshadowing Zhang Tianlu, Cheng Zhi and other officials of the East Palace faction, their heads lowered.

"Minister... dead remonstrance!"

"Minister... dead remonstrance!"

Shi Bangzhao, the censor of Zuodu of the Procuratorate, Wang Yuangu, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment, and Wang Jiayan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, bowed down one after another.

Apart from Zhang Tianlu and Cheng Zhi, officials from the Eastern Palace faction also spoke out one after another, which made Zhang Tianlu, Cheng Zhi and the others even more ashamed.

Li Banghua's thoughts are different from Zhang Tianlu's. He didn't want Liu Hongjian to die. As a veteran of the three dynasties, he just realized that if the regent Liu Hongjian continued to hold the power of regent, Yu Daming, Yu Zhu's family, and even the descendants of Liu's family would come. Say, it's not a good thing.

He just hoped that Liu Hongjian would step down from that position and return the regency and military power to the Zhu family and the court, that's all.

He does not form a party, does not seek selfishness, is not afraid of power and even death. If the stability of Daming needs his blood, he will not hesitate, it has been the same before, and it still is now.

"Very good! You are all very good!" Zhu Cihong walked straight to the dragon chair after getting the answer.

"Liu Qing is the regent of the Ming Dynasty. He has the right to act on my behalf to make decisions about internal affairs and foreign affairs. There is no suspicion of overstepping the rules. It is my intention to go on an expedition to Rakshasa, and it is my intention that Europa's private soldiers are also my intention. With the regent irrelevant.

As for your advice, I will tell you the answer now, and I will not remove Liu Qing from the post of Regent and Marshal of the Army and Horses. "

Zhu Cihong didn't expect that he could face the ministers in the palace so calmly. Yes, a king should have a broad mind, but he still didn't want to make any compromises. He didn't want to lose a friend or an elder brother.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please take the country and the country as the most important thing! If your Majesty insists on this, I...please resign!" Li Banghua's voice was high and solemn, and he slowly removed the black yarn from his head, and solemnly put the hat on on the ground.

"Please resign!"

"Please resign!"

……

Most of the courtiers took off the black gauze from their heads to show their determination, and for some reason Zhang Tianlu also took off his hat and prostrated himself on the palace again.

It was the first time that this scene appeared in the Taishun Dynasty.

This was a game between the officials and the emperor. When the Donglin Party was dominant, most of the officials won such a scene. No matter how tough the emperor was, he would choose to calm down.

As far as Li Banghua is concerned, a country will not be a country if there is a king regent. To Zhang Tianlu, if there is a king regent, the position of chief assistant will always be a delusion.

There were several scenes in the Chongzhen Dynasty, all of which ended in the victory of the courtiers. Zhang Tianlu slightly turned his head and glanced at Cheng Zhi. From Cheng Zhi's eyes, he also saw that he had put all his eggs in one basket.

The Hall of the Emperor fell into silence again. Since Zhu Cihong ascended the throne, it was the first time that the courtiers stood against him in such a united manner.

Zhu Cihong's face still showed no sorrow or joy, and it could be seen from his frowning that he was also weighing and even struggling.

Apart from Zhu Cihong, the only person standing in the palace was Han Yu, the chief assistant of the cabinet. From the beginning to the end of today's incident, he didn't say a word, and everyone knew that he was actually a player in the situation.

If Liu Hongjian was dismissed from the posts of Regent and Marshal, he would be the first to be stepped down by the courtiers.

For some reason, it was the first time that the silver-haired Han Yu felt so tired after being an official for forty years.

After ten breaths of silence, Zhu Cihong finally made up his mind. He stood up, put his hands behind his back, and took a deep breath.

"I, ready to play!"
