Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 536 Zhu Di returns to court!

East Palace.

It was a 'war and chaos'.

There were harried ladies and eunuchs everywhere packing their bags for Zhu Biao's trip.

Hu Weiyong pushed Lu Ben's wheelchair and rushed to Zhu Biao's study in this flustered and tense atmosphere.

Lu Ben looked at the flustered palace maid and eunuch.

The corners of his lips couldn't help but reveal an uncontrollable excited smile.

I couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Hu Xiang, are you sure this time?"

Hu Weiyong knew very well that Lu Ben was asking him whether this was the last time Emperor Zhu was seriously ill.

After all, they thought last year that Emperor Zhu couldn't hold on any longer.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhu was forced to hold on for a year.

The hand that pushes the wheelchair holds the wheelchair tightly.

Hu Weiyong tried his best to suppress his excitement.

He had no reason not to be excited.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the strongman emperor and Zhu Silang's father, passed away! After the prince ascends the throne, they conservatives can openly attack Zhu Silang!
Even this time, as long as Zhu Silang dared to return to the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Silang would never be able to leave again.

Become a pile of dead bones, a tomb.

He had no reason not to be excited.

He took a deep breath and tightened his hand on the wheelchair pusher, "Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet, he knows his physical condition well. During this period, Emperor Zhu made frequent high-profile statements to set the tone for the future. I'm afraid, he himself knows it. I can’t hold on any longer!”

As he spoke, the corners of Hu Weiyong's lips raised slightly.

Lu Ben clenched his fists excitedly.

Neither of them spoke anymore.

"Mr. Li, you and everyone from the Taiyuan Hospital will set off immediately and rush to Jiangsu and Zhejiang as quickly as possible to diagnose and treat His Majesty. Do your best to save the orphaned emperor and his mother!"

Hu Weiyong and Lu Ben walked all the way to the door of the study and heard Zhu Biao's sad voice inside the door.

After Dr. Li took the order and left.

Hu Weiyong pushed Lu Ben in.

Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and other important officials in the court were already among the top officials.

Hu Weiyong and Lu Ben found a seat and sat down.

Look at Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao looked around at everyone, "I am going to leave for Jiangsu and Zhejiang immediately. Before I leave, I will tell all the ministers about the current situation and how to deal with something that happens to the court after I leave Jinling."

With that said, Zhu Biao nodded to the current Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army, Xiping Hou Muying.

Mu Ying lowered her head, immersed in grief.

He didn't notice Zhu Biao's signal.

"Marquis Xiping!"

It wasn't until Huang Zicheng frowned and reminded that Mu Ying came back to her senses, raised her head and looked at Zhu Biao. After receiving the instruction, she slowly stood up and said sadly: "The news just came that while the Queen was recuperating in the Shen family, His Majesty was worried about her condition and fell ill. Well, King Zhou of Qiantang Prefecture has now led his troops to the Shen family in Zhouzhuang..."

Many of the people present heard the news for the first time.

Everyone's expressions changed.

King Zhou led his troops to the Shen family in Zhouzhuang?

At this special moment of transition of imperial power.

This kind of thing is very likely to cause the imperial power to fall apart!

Lu Ben and Hu Weiyong looked at each other and couldn't wait to interrupt Mu Ying and asked: "Marquis Xiping, is it King Zhou's own behavior or His Majesty's will to lead troops to the Shen family?"

Although, this King of Zhou, like the Prince, King of Qin, King of Jin, and Zhu Silang, all came from His Majesty and Queen.

But everyone knows that the relationship between King Zhou and Zhu Silang has gotten better and better over the years.

In fact, King Zhou is not an exception.

In recent years, the elder brother whom the vassals of the Ming Dynasty admired the most was no longer the prince in the early years of Hongwu.

But Zhu Silang!
After the shelling of Tuqiao Village.

The princes wrote letters one after another, requesting the prince to severely punish Lu Zhongheng. Later, the prince sent Songjiangkou division troops to attack Penglai, and the princes stopped him as mentioned above.

More intense ones.

He bluntly said that the prince had done something wrong.

Among them was the King of Zhou.

In fact, the king of Zhou's fiefdom should be in Kaifeng.

After all, when the King of Zhou changed his title from King of Wu to King of Zhou, logically, he should have transferred his fiefdom to Kaifeng.

But later, the King of Zhou pulled together a team to study plants.

Later, Renren and Yanhua were sent to study biology.

Emperor Zhu liked King Zhou's behavior very much.

It is believed that King Zhou needed financial support to conduct these studies.

Qiantang Mansion, a fiefdom of the King of Zhou, is located in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions. It is a fertile land and is richer than Kaifeng, Henan.

Therefore, the matter of moving the fiefdom was eventually dropped.

As a result, Zhou King Zhu Xi became the only vassal king to be canonized in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Unexpectedly, at this time, it would have such a big impact.

Mu Ying frowned.

How could he not know what Lu Ben meant?

At this time, as a minister, I did not care about the illness of His Majesty and the Empress, and my attention was completely focused on the issue of the transfer of imperial power.

Emotionally, he was disgusted.

But he also knew that although Lu Ben's question was very selfish.

As a courtier of the Ming Dynasty.

He must also consider the handover of imperial power.

Mu Ying suppressed her anger, shook her head and said: "The specific situation is still unclear. I'm afraid, it's already a mess over there."

Lu Ben and Hu Weiyong were even more worried.

In case, Zhu Xi takes advantage of Emperor Zhu's unconsciousness.

If you get a false edict to abolish the prince and establish Zhu Silang, things will be troublesome.

Even Zhu Ru didn't dare to do this.

At this time, Emperor Zhu's last words were conveyed to Zhu Silang through Zhu Ju.

They were so far away that they couldn't stop it even if they wanted to.

Huang Zicheng stood up immediately, "Prince, you must leave immediately, there is no delay."

Lu Ben then spoke: "Furthermore, I suggest that the trains to the north be blocked immediately to control the spread of news, so as not to cause overall turmoil in the Ming Dynasty!"

Many people frowned upon hearing this suggestion.

All are not fools.

How could one not know that the real purpose of Lu Ben's move was not to let the northern vassal kings receive the news.

The king of the northern vassal.

He was definitely the most powerful among the vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty.

Among the vassal kings in the south, except King Zhou, there were two towns.

Other feudal lords either have one town, one town and one mixed association, or two mixed associations.

The feudal kings of the North are all organized in two towns!
Fang Xiaoru glanced at Zhu Biao and reminded in a low voice: "At this time, there should have been a train heading north."

Zhu Biao glanced at Fang Xiaoru.

He understands.

As a senior brother, he was opposed to this.

Reminding him that there is a train leaving is to remind him that he does not need to work in vain.

Zhu Biao immediately waved his hand, "No need, send someone immediately, eight hundred miles away, to notify all the vassal kings to return to the capital. Once we arrive in the capital, and we don't come back, we will immediately go to the Shen family in Zhouzhuang."

"Prince, where is King Yan?"

When everyone heard the sound, they all looked at Hu Weiyong and then at Zhu Biao.

Mu Ying hesitated and reminded tactfully, "Prince, according to His Majesty's wish last year, I don't want King Yan to come back."

In fact, he also received His Majesty's secret order.

Once the adoptive father dies and the prince asks the fourth child to come back, he and Lan Yu will take out the secret decree given to them by the adoptive father.

Prevent the fourth child from returning to court.

But now, please tell me the two conditions of the secret decree.

The death of his adoptive father had not yet happened, so he could only remind the prince tactfully.

In his opinion, Hu Weiyong deliberately asked if he wanted to invite the fourth child to return to court, which was definitely not a good intention.

The conservatives, and those who hate the Old Four, can no longer wait.

Zhu Biao hesitated slightly and observed Hu Weiyong, Mu Ying and others from the corner of his eye.

Look at everyone's expressions in your eyes.

The study fell into silence for an instant.

Everyone is nervous.

Everyone knows it too.

Once King Yan comes back, and His Majesty is unable to recover as before, but dies, it is very likely that King Yan will not be able to leave when he comes back!
This is very possible.

Your Majesty is not here.

The only person who can protect King Yan in the Central Plains and is willing to protect King Yan unconditionally is gone!
As for the prince.

Everyone knows that the prince's feelings for King Yan are very complicated.

There is both brotherly love and the coldness of an emperor.

At that time, it was impossible to predict which side the prince's heart would lean towards.

"Send someone to inform the fourth child." Zhu Biao's calm voice broke the silence in the hall.

Some people frowned and sighed silently.

Some people were excited and secretly clenched their fists.

Zhu Biao added: "As my father's favorite son, the fourth child must be informed of such a big matter, regardless of whether he wants to come back or not. As an elder brother alone, he must be informed."

Hey!
Fang Xiaoru sighed after listening to Zhu Biao's explanation, and said in a helpless ventriloquism: Superfluous!

The prince's explanation.

It just proves that the prince's move is not pure.

Don't worry, the prince is going to take action against King Yan.

At least, one thing is clear.

The prince informed King Yan.

Once King Yan does not come back, it will be a great act of unfilial piety!

This had a huge impact on King Yan’s reputation and reputation!
Zhu Biao ignored everyone and continued to give orders: "Instruct Lan Yu, the commander of the Northern Territory Army, to prepare for the garrison in the Northern Territory. At this time, we must not relax even a little bit!"

"Besides, the hero is by His Majesty's side. Once he leaves the capital alone, you can discuss who will supervise the country."

Fang Xiaoru spoke first, "I believe that His Highness Yunxi, as the Crown Prince's legitimate son, is suitable to supervise the country in the absence of the Crown Prince!"

The hidden resentment in Lu Ben's eyes flashed away, and he winked at Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai.

Huang Zicheng stood up immediately, "Prince, His Highness Yunxi has a weak character. At this time of turmoil, the person to be the supervisor of the country should be a decisive Highness. I think His Highness Yunxi is the most suitable."

"I support you!"

"I second the proposal!"

……

Immediately, many people stood up and supported Zhu Yunwen in supervising the country.

These people are conservative forces.

Although it was not absorbed into the Daoyan Alliance.

But Zhu Yunxi is Zhu Xiongying's younger brother.

The hero has been regarded as a staunch revolutionary by conservatives.

At this time, the conservatives were not willing to let Zhu Yunxi, Xiongying's brother, supervise the country.

Speaking of which, who supervises the country has little practical significance. After all, no matter who oversees the country.

It is impossible to make any adjustments to Ming's personnel.

But even if it is a symbol.

In politics, we must also fight!
"I object!" Fang Xiaoru suddenly turned around, changed from his usual neutral and peaceful attitude, took on the momentum of a chief minister, and looked around everyone, "His Royal Highness Yunwen is just a concubine. If the legitimate son is here, if His Highness Yunwen is allowed to supervise the country, it will be Disrupting the ancestral system set by His Majesty will never be allowed, and as the chief minister, I will never agree to it!"

"Unless the prince dismisses me now!"

As he spoke, Fang Xiaoru turned around and bowed solemnly to Zhu Biao.

Mu Ying also spoke, "I am also opposed to Your Highness Yunwen's supervision of the country!"

"I also object to it!"

"The distinction between concubines and concubines must not be messed up!"

"Otherwise there will be endless trouble!"

……

In an instant, more people stood up to support Fang Xiaoru.

Among them, there are some conservatives who insist on the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children.

Zhu Biao's side.

Zhu Yunxi lowered his head in fear.

Zhu Yunwen tried hard to suppress his anger and looked calm.

Zhu Biao took note of the performance of his two sons and was even more disappointed with Zhu Yunxi.

Huang Zicheng said that Yunxi was a weak Confucian.

This is to save face for Yunxi.

To put it bluntly, it is weakness!

In comparison, in fact, he was more in favor of Yun Wen supervising the country.

Can……

Zhu Biao looked at Fang Xiaoru with a headache.

It is clear that once he insists on letting Yun Wen supervise the country, Xizhi will definitely resign from him in person.

Worthy of this moment.

What are you saying when the chief assistant resigns?

"Okay, Yunxi will supervise the country, and Yunwen will assist you."

Zhu Biao made the final decision.

Fang Xiaoru, Mu Ying and others frowned.

Zhu Yunwen's assistant does not have the name of supervising the country, but he has the actual status of half supervising the country.

Lu Ben was also very unwilling.

I am a little dissatisfied with Zhu Biao's muddy treatment.

He hoped that Yunwen would get this opportunity to supervise the country.

Served as a prisoner of the state.

When I become emperor again in the future, the correctness of my legal system will be even higher.

But now...

……

On the same day, Zhu Biao arranged everything.

Fang Xiaoru was left to assist Zhu Yunxi, and with the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty, under the escort of Song Zhong personally led by Prince Biao, he took several trains starting from the front and back and rushed to Zhouzhuang.

……

Hahaha……

Imprisonment.

The white-haired Lu Zhongheng raised his head and laughed when he heard the news that Zhu Yuanzhang was critically ill.

for a long time.

The laughter subsided, his face twisted as ferociously as a demon, and he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

As long as Emperor Zhu dies.

He can get out of the prison.

You can seek revenge from Zhu Silang!

"Zhu Silang, if you kill my entire family, I, Lu Zhongheng, will definitely kill your most precious Xu Miaoyun and those little brats of yours in front of you in the future!"

Lawrence Lu held the messy white hair in his hands and held it tightly.

He waited and endured his life just for this day!
……

Zhu Biao has not yet arrived at Zhouzhuang.

The news spread to Beiping one after another.

Led by Zhu Fang, the northern vassal kings, feeling heavy with grief, hurriedly gathered together and took the train south.

……

Simon Gu.

industrial area.

An obviously newly built, brand-new factory building, with a chimney rising straight out of the factory building.

Smoke billows.

Inside the factory.

Mahamu was standing next to the blast furnace wearing a baggy work clothes.

I didn't care at all, the heat wave came over me.

His eyes were fixed on the rough and heavy cylinder.

Looking at the gap in the cylinder, there was a small amount of steam leaking out, and I couldn't help but tighten my hands.

This first-generation steam engine was created by their work in the Ming Dynasty. They stole technology from the Ming Dynasty factory and built it through his hands.

After all, he has worked in many factories in Yanhua.

On technology.

There is probably no one in the whole of Mongolia who is better than him.

But a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice.

Boilers and cylinders are easy to make.

Even without the good fortune of Ming Dynasty, he still knew that Yanhua's small furnace could make steel with local methods.

After stealing technology.

Combined with the craftsmanship he has mastered.

It is not difficult to cast the blocks for boilers and cylinders.

But with the rubber seal, he couldn't solve it.

This kind of thing has been listed as a key controlled product by Yanhua.

He could only buy new carriages and bicycles from Daming, remove the tires from the carriages and bicycles, and cut them into sealing rings.

But this kind of rubber is obviously not produced specifically for sealing.

The sealing performance cannot be compared with the sealing rings produced by Yanhua specifically for cylinder sealing.

Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be air leakage.

blah blah blah...

After a while, as the air pressure increased, the cylinder connecting rod finally started to move faster and faster.

Only then did Mahamu smile appear on his face.

"It's done!"

"Khan! It's done!"

"We Mongolia also have our own steam engine!"

……

In the factory, Taiping, Ba Tuboluo and others shouted excitedly.

Haha ...

Mahamu laughed heartily and quietly walked out of the factory while everyone cheered.

Staring at the direction of Daming in the south.

rustling...

There were footsteps behind me.

Taiping walked Tupolo to Mahamu.

Taiping asked: "Is the Khan unhappy?"

Over the years, I have witnessed with my own eyes the changes that Mahamu has brought to the grassland.

He and Batu Polo gave up the previous agreement that the three of them would be equals and jointly take charge of Simongu, and jointly recommended Mahamu to be Khan of Simongu.

"Of course I'm happy." Mahamu smiled and shook his head, "I was thinking about the news that Emperor Zhu was critically ill. This strongman emperor finally reached the end of his life."

Mahamu said with a look of emotion on his face.

"Even though Emperor Zhu single-handedly defeated our grassland, was our enemy, and was an old-school figure, I am more relieved than relieved that this strong man is about to die of illness."

The two Taiping nodded.

Zhu Yuanzhang!
This man and Zhu Silang, the father and son, overwhelmed the prairie people and made them breathless.

Now, Emperor Zhu is critically ill, and it seems that he may not be able to survive this disaster this time.

Zhu Silang went to sea again and traveled overseas.

The two mountains that were pressing down on the prairie people were finally completely removed!
Buluo smiled and said: "After Zhu Biao ascends the throne, I guess that the relationship between Yan, Hua and Ming Dynasty is likely to deteriorate rapidly. By then, our pressure will be even less. As long as we digest and absorb the technology obtained, it is best to find a way." , we built a small converter with an annual output of 10,000 tons of steel like the one built by Yanhua in Daming, and it has been dormant for a few years. Daming won’t even think about touching us, maybe we can come back!”

"Yes!" Taiping said with a hearty smile: "Didn't Zhu Silang say that Mongolia and the Central Plains are both descendants of Yan and Huang, and we are brothers?"

"When we fight back this time, we will take this set of arguments, and we will fully imitate Yanhua and completely abolish the wrong policies of our ancestors that ruled the Central Plains. I can see that if we want to rule the Central Plains, we must Become a Central Plains person.”

"The current Mongolian-Han demonstration area is good at integrating Mongolian and Han people. When the time comes, we will do the same!"

Mahamu glanced at Taiping who was very interested, and the smile on his lips disappeared.

At first, Taiping and Baotupolo were very resistant to him shaving his hair and changing clothes in the grassland.

But now, everyone has to imitate Yanhua.

Although Ming Dynasty got more technology from Yanhua.

But the history of the Central Plains placed a heavier burden on the Ming Dynasty.

The change of ideas is very slow, but it has constant twists and turns.

On the contrary, they are different.

This can be seen from the transformation of Taiping and Batu Polo.

"Thirty years!" Mahamu suddenly raised his hand and held out three fingers, "Give us another thirty years to be students with an open mind and humility. After thirty years, we will be the King of Yan Zhu Di and the Prince Zhu Biao, fighting each other until they are exhausted. When we are exhausted, we may not have the chance to regain control of the Central Plains!"

Daming, it’s not scary!
He was never afraid of Daming!
Even if Ming gets the technology, he is not afraid.

He is most afraid of King Zhu Di of Yan!
But if Emperor Zhu dies this time and King Zhu Di of Yan returns to the Central Plains for mourning, will he still have a chance to return to Yanhua?

"Instruct us to carry out detailed operations in the Ming Dynasty, mobilize all manpower, and closely monitor the disturbances in the Ming Dynasty. If King Zhu Di of Yan returns to the Central Plains, we must report it as soon as possible!"

……

Yanjing.

Zhu Di's study.

Mao Xiang accompanied Shen Zhi in.

After saluting, Shen Zhi looked a little sad and said: "Your Majesty, my uncle quietly sent someone to convey the news that Your Majesty has fallen into a coma and the Crown Prince has also arrived. After the imperial doctor diagnosed His Majesty, the situation... the situation is not optimistic..."

Zhu Di's face turned pale.

He endured the discomfort and raised his head after Shen Zhi finished speaking.

With slightly red eyes, he looked at Shen Zhi and thanked him: "Tell your uncle and second uncle, I accept this request."

"Mao Xiang, inform the cabinet that I am going to return to the DPRK. There are some things that need to be prepared in advance."

"Your Majesty..."

Shen Zhi and Mao Xiang heard this and stopped them at the same time.
