Jingming

Chapter 10 Time, fate!

Chapter 10 Time, fate!
Gu Dayong is walking up and down in the guest room in the southern part of the palace, fidgeting.

Jiang Bin is finished.

When the frontier army was selected to go to Beijing to practice camp, Jiang Bin was the commander of the army, and Gu Dayong was the eunuch who supervised the army.

Yang Ting and them sharpened their swords and kept Gu Dayong, Zhang Yong, Wei Bin and others for the time being, just to reassure the Empress Dowager.

But after the new emperor ascends the throne, this butcher knife will fall at any time.The new emperor wants to use new people, and Yang Ting and they want to take advantage of the time gap when the new people can't quickly control the old power of the inner courtiers, so as to further expand the power of the civil servants.

Gu Dayong actually doesn't care about these things anymore, now he only cares about saving his life.

In the hall of Chengyun, Xie Changjie looked loyal: "Your Highness, you must never see him! Now His Highness is still the status of a vassal king. If you meet Gu Dayong, you will make a big mistake!"

"Xie Changshi's words are polite." Zhu Houcong seemed to have accepted the advice, but in fact he didn't intend to meet him, but said to him with a smile, "But after all, Eunuch Gu came to welcome me to Beijing to succeed me, and the journey was very tiring. .Although I can’t see you, but the palace can’t lose the etiquette, so Xie Changshi will entertain you on your behalf. Please, Eunuch Gu, rest for the night.”

Xie Changjie was overjoyed and took the order to go.

After he left, Zhou Zhao looked at Zhu Houcong a little strangely: "Gu Dayong must have asked for something before he came to meet him in private. Your Highness asked Xie Changshi to entertain him...that's still communication inside and outside the palace."

"Could it be blown away?" Zhu Houcong didn't take it seriously, "It's enough for me not to see him."

Zhou Zhao actually thought that Xie Changjie might accept Gu Dause's gift, right?Are you playing tricks on Xie Changjie?
At that time, someone would really say that Gu Dayong was left behind by the palace, and throw Xie Changjie out. This person has been disliked and distrusted by Zhu Houcong all the time, so how can he discuss anything with Gu Dayong on behalf of Zhu Houcong?
The center of the welcome group is preparing for the reading of the edict tomorrow, and the news that Gu Dayong stayed in the palace was sent back to the post house in Haishi.

After getting the news, Mao Cheng immediately went to pay a visit to Liang Chu: "Your Highness really met Gu Dayong!"

Killing intent emerged in his eyes: "What a great use! What a restless official of the palace!"

I'm afraid there is one more sentence, but it's not convenient to say it: what a restless heir...

Liang Chu waved his hand calmly: "Since he's gone, it's just an extra crime. What's the hurry for Xianqing? It's getting late, let's rest early."

"Mr. Ge, in case Gu Dayong tells stories..."

"What's wrong to tell?" Liang Chu didn't take it seriously, "It's nothing more than seeing that there are few people available for the heir, so he wanted to show his loyalty in advance. Even if His Highness is deceived for a while, he will stay away from the villain when he sees their numerous crimes. "

The dissatisfaction with Gu Dayong in the minds of the two of them was added. At this moment, Xie Changjie, who had entertained Gu Dayong for dinner and chatted, had just sent Gu Dayong back to the guest room.

"Eunuch Gu, I know what you want to do here, but you really shouldn't come, and His Highness can't see you." Xie Changjie saw the powerful eunuch nodding and bowing in front of him, in some drunken ecstasy. He said proudly, "I have been in the palace for many years, and I know His Highness is tolerant. What His Highness needs now is someone, someone who is both loyal and capable of doing things!"

"Xiegong is right!"

Gu Da used his past strength to only stare at the real bosses in the capital, how could he know so much about the palace?
Now that Zhu Houcong is about to succeed to the throne, Xie Changjie is the most respected among the officials of the palace, and in Gu Dayong's opinion, he will join the cabinet sooner or later.

Without hesitation, he took out a stack of papers from his sleeve and handed them over: "I am grateful for Xie Gong's suggestion, and please accept a little care. Our ministers are only the emperor's leader, Xie Gong is a hero from the dragon, and we need a lot more in the future." close."

"Eunuch Gu? How did this happen?" Xie Changjie looked upright, "Eunuch Gu underestimated me!"

Gu Dayong nodded humbly: "Mr. Xie must not refuse! Mr. Xie has been away from Beijing for many years. The situation in the court and the merits and demerits of some important ministers, the children under our command are all paying attention. Your Excellency shoulders the important task of standing firm for all the officials in the palace, so after entering the capital, there are many places where money can be used, and this is also our duty to serve His Highness together!"

Xie Changjie understood as soon as he heard it.

If you want to go up, someone has to move the nest.People in Jinyiwei and Dongchang have unknowingly how many black materials of important ministers they have in their hands.To impeach them, it is most appropriate to need civil servants to take action.

In addition, when he arrived in the capital, he, Xie Changjie, was the head of the royal family's officials, and he needed money to subdue people's hearts and form his own faction.

He laughed: "Eunuch Gu is very thoughtful, I will report this loyalty to His Highness."

"Don't refuse, Mr. Xie! This is all for the sake of the master!"

This time, after Gu Dayong handed it over again, Xie Changjie accepted it with a smile, and then asked him to rest.

After returning to his room, he opened it and took a look. Xie Changjie was even happier.

1 taels of silver, in addition to three shops in the capital, one large and one small two houses.

Thinking of the days after the reading of the will tomorrow, Xie Changjie looked forward to it, and felt that better days were beckoning to him.

When seeing Yang Tinghe again, he should have to respect himself a little bit more, right?

Time is also fate!

……

Outside the Chongming Gate of the Wangfu, Zhu Houcong stood at the front, and Xie Changjie and other officials of the Wangfu stood behind.

Early in the morning, the officials transferred from Anlu Prefecture and Wuchang Mansion cleared the way.Now there are guards all the way from Anlu Posthouse to Xingwang Mansion.

According to the rules, Zhu Houcong had to meet the imperial edict outside the palace.

Near noon, the guard of honor of the welcoming group finally arrived.

Liang Chu and the others had already landed several miles away and walked over together.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Liang Chu and the others looked at Zhu Houcong, who had already taken off his old sackcloth and looked imposing, and the first thing he felt was his calmness.

The eyes are not the frightened and frightened young people who are inevitably erratic, but they are looking at everyone with a purpose.

That feeling is scrutiny.

Zhu Houcong was indeed examining these big men.

The Duke of the State, the old man, a minister...the crowns and uniforms worn by these people are extremely dazzling in Huguang. Now Huguang envoys, governors and other officials can only accompany them in the rear.

Zhu Houcong was very vigilant in his heart, Liang Chu and others were indeed very aura, far from being comparable to the frivolous Xie Changjie and others in the palace of the past.

Now Liang Chu and the others are all focusing on Zhu Houcong, and he feels that these people are also observing him.

But Zhu Houcong only cared about what the edict said.

According to the rules, Zhu Houcong is already a prince, ranking above everyone else, let alone he has the status of heir?
After Liang Chu and the others walked up quickly, they first paid a visit to Zhu Houcong.

After some politeness at the door, Zhu Houcong responded according to Zhou Zhao's instructions.

Liang Chu and others felt Zhu Houcong's calmness even more, unlike a 15-year-old boy.

This level of composure is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Although the edict was not officially announced, but with such a big battle and the news that had been circulated before, could he not know that what awaited him was the throne?
Throne!There was no surprise in his eyes!

Not long after, so many people arrived in the carrying hall.

In the seven-bay hall, Huguang local officials and officials of the royal family stood full.

After Zhu Houcong sat down on the throne on His Majesty Bai Yushidan, and accepted another formal audience, Xu Guangzuo, who was in charge of announcing the edict, took out the edict, held it up high and said in a solemn voice: "Emperor Daxing's edict! "

Zhu Houcong stood up again and went to the north of the Danbi and knelt down.

Xu Guangzuo opened the will with both hands, and read it word by word:

[I am humble, and it has been ten or seven years since Shao inherited the ancestor Piye.Although the rule of thumb is diligent, the chemistry is not consistent.Shenwei was entrusted by the first emperor, but now he is dying of illness, and it is almost impossible to survive.The common sense of life and death is unavoidable for ancient and modern people.But in succession to the successor, the clan society depends on the livelihood of the people.Although I have abandoned the world, how can I regret it?
[Huang Kao Xiaozong respected the emperor's younger brother, Xingxian Wang's eldest son, Houcong, smart, benevolent and filial, with long-established virtues, and established ethics.I have complied with the words of the ancestors, brothers and brothers, and told the ancestral temple to ask the Empress Dowager Yu Cishou to conspire with the civil and military officials at home and abroad to make the same resignation. Immediately, officials will be sent to welcome them to Beijing and inherit the throne of the emperor. 】

[The civil and military ministers at home and abroad, who work together to assist in management, follow the old system of the ancestors, and use the deputy to the will.On the day before the successor arrives in Beijing, if there is a major emergency, the yamen will report to the empress dowager for the time being...]

As soon as he finished chanting, there was a burst of crying in the hall.

On the day of mourning, cry for three days first.

Then replace January with one day, and wear mourning clothes on the 27th.

The son of heaven is the father of the king, and this is a national funeral.

Zhu Houcong has come to this era, and the play that should be performed must be performed.

The people in the welcome group and the officials in Huguang also showed mourning in their clothes.

"I beg Your Highness to express my condolences, and the community is the most important thing!" Xu Guangzuo hurriedly asked Zhu Houcong to stand up, went around to the south of him, knelt down and held up the edict, "Mr. Xu Guangzuo, I beg Your Highness to accept the edict and receive the congratulations of all officials!"

This is not enthronement, but after receiving the will, he is already the heir.

Zhu Houcong's eyes were still uncomfortable because of the hands and feet made on his sleeves, and now he looked at the enthusiastic Xu Guangzuo with red eyes.

"Minister Cui Yuan, I invite Your Highness to accept the imperial edict, hold the golden talisman, and receive the congratulations of all officials!" Cui Yuan and Xu Guangzuo knelt together, and what he held high in his hand was the golden talisman.

"Your Majesty Liang Chu, I ask Your Highness to take the country and the country as the most important thing, accept the edict, hold the golden talisman, and receive the congratulations of the officials!"

"Minister Zhang Heling..."

"Chen Maocheng..."

In front of Zhu Houcong, he finally calmed down.

According to the report at the end of last year, among the current public figures, Daming has 939 households and a population of 9979.

A comparison made by Lao Qin that impressed Zhu Houcong very deeply:
In 1521 AD, Magellan arrived in the Philippines during the world's first voyage around the world.After his death, the rest of the crew returned to Europe to tell the story of the Spice Islands.

This year, the Aztec civilization in America was destroyed by Spain.Many years later, a country that dominates the world was born on that land.

And in the same year, a son of a prince in the east was hit by the throne that fell from the sky.Later, he banned the sea and cultivated immortality.

Now, history is entrusted to Zhu Houcong alive, waiting for his every decision that is destined to change the fate of countless people.

Time, fate!
