Chapter 133 The True and False Prince
Since Zhu Youjian succeeded to the throne, several cabinet ministers have not seen Zhu Youjian so flustered.

I saw him pacing back and forth after the case, rubbing his palms together and muttering to himself.

"What can we do! North Korea is a country designated by Taizu as a country without conquests. It has been respectful to our court for so many years, and the new king's succession must be approved by the Ming Dynasty. But I never expected that the previous one, Li Zhu, had just hanged himself, and now I didn’t even take good care of his child. He encountered a storm! I! Alas.”

After speaking, Zhu Youjian slumped on the chair and let out a long sigh.

"Your Majesty, please mourn!"

"Your Majesty, this is a natural disaster that cannot be avoided by humans. Son of the King of Joseon, this calamity should happen."

Seeing the emperor's distraught look, several people hurriedly comforted him.Only Fan Jingwen drooped his eyelids and remained silent.

After a long while, Zhu Youjian's face softened slightly, he sighed again and said to several people.

"My dear friends, the chaos in Korea has just ended, and I planned to send him back to succeed him and restore order in Korea as soon as possible, but this natural disaster took him away. What should we do now?"

Several cabinet ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, and they were also in trouble.

"Where are those clans of Li Zhen?" Bi Ziyan asked.

"In order to prevent them from rebelling, Amin had already arrested and killed them all."

Zhu Youjian shook his head.

"Why don't your majesty order people to search North Korea to see if there are any clans left outside?" Jiang Dejing said.

"That's all."

Several people discussed again, gave some suggestions, and walked out of Hongde Hall together.

"I don't know if I can find Li's clan."

"Who knows? Maybe even Amin was killed."

"It's really hard to say."

"Why didn't you send me a glance?"

"toothache."

On the way, Bi Ziyan and several people discussed this matter.Only Fan Jingwen walked silently behind the team without saying a word.Also looking for clan.Find it and kill it?
I have been working under His Majesty for so long, when did I see His Majesty so flustered?Your Majesty will panic because of this matter?
"Wang Banban, contact the Duke of England and order him to find the Li family. You must tell him not to let someone with ulterior motives impersonate him!"

"Yes! Long live!"

He has no plans to let Zhang Zhiji come back for the time being. North Korea has experienced these two turmoils and is basically in ruins. It must wait until it stabilizes.

Zhang Zhiji is indeed a little anxious. This battle is over, why hasn't His Majesty sent the crown prince of North Korea here?

It wasn't until he received His Majesty's order to find the Li clan that he didn't know that the son of the Joseon prince he was looking forward to had been buried in the belly of a fish.But the problem is that the Li clan has been killed by Amin, let alone the clan.The ministers of the DPRK and China were killed by A Min, and he killed another group when he entered the city. Now he can't even assemble a complete team.If it weren't for his suppression here, the huge North Korea would probably be in chaos.

His Majesty gave the order, and I will definitely look for it.

He also remembered the problem that Wang Cheng'en had repeatedly emphasized when conveying his will.

counterfeit.

Counterfeit?

He seemed to understand.

tenth day of september
The news that a royal son was buried in a fish belly in the process of returning to the court spread throughout North Korea, and the ruling and opposition parties wept bitterly.

Immediately afterwards, all local governments posted notices to search for the Li clan left behind by the people.

The general content is that the king of Joseon, Li Ji, has hanged himself, and Wang Shizi also drowned on the way back.Look for it quickly, if there is an illegitimate son of the king outside, send him to Seoul as soon as possible.As long as he is not a fool, support him to inherit the throne.

As soon as this announcement was posted, it was a national sensation.

They all went to the genealogy to look through it, or found the old people in the family to confirm whether they had anything to do with the royal family.Although some people know that their ancestors have been farmers for generations, they have never been to Seoul in their life.But maybe it’s not necessarily true that I’m not my own?

On the day the notice was posted, someone claiming to be a descendant of King Gwanghae came to Seoul. After checking, it turned out to be fake.

Later, more and more people came to Seoul, making the officials in charge of the review very busy every day.

Knowing that it is basically fake, it is impossible not to verify it.

Zhang Zhiji saw that going on like this was really not an option, so he gave an order.

Once a counterfeit is found, it will be beheaded for public display.

It was much cleaner immediately, and those who wanted to fish in troubled waters almost ran away.

At this time, a person came into the sight of Zhang Zhiji who had been paying attention to this matter.

Li Liang
According to Li Liang, his mother was originally a court lady in Gyeongbokgung Palace, and once Li Zhen was drunk, he gave his mother to her.Later, the belly gradually became bigger, and Queen Renlie's Han family knew about it.So he ordered a servant to trick her outside the city and kill her in the name of sending her out of the palace.Li Liang's mother was very smart, she knew what kind of danger she was facing, so she directly bribed the servant, and the servant, who was open to money, let her go.

From then on, Li Liang's mother came to live in a village near Ganghwa Bay in the west of Seoul.And successfully gave birth to a baby boy named Li Liang.He was brought up by himself, and he saved money to teach Li Liang to read and write.Unfortunately, Li Liang's mother passed away when he was 12 years old, and she confessed Li Liang's life experience before she died.And gave him a token, jade pendant.

The 12-year-old Li Liang was ignorant and didn't know what this meant.As he grew older, his heart became distorted.Looking at other people's fine clothes and fine food, he hated it. This is the life he should have.Without the restraint of his mother, he started to hang out with some gangsters, doing some sneaky things.

Until I entered the city that day and saw the notice.

He can no longer suppress the joy in his heart, I am going to be the king!I no longer have to go out into the street and steal a few coins from someone's pocket.The whole of North Korea is mine!
He came to Seoul with the jade pendant.

Even if Zhang Zhiji ordered to find out that it was a fake, he immediately beheaded it for public display, and he did not back down.

Because he has evidence.

A piece of jade pendant left by Li Zhen after finishing work that night more than ten years ago.

So, he is real.

"Li Liang, Li Liang, your mother? Damn, this name sounds like a curse!" Zhang Zhiji said cursingly, and then asked Xu Yingyuan beside him.

"Old Xu, you said that this person looks a lot like that. Could it be Li Zhen's illegitimate son? Is it such a coincidence?"

Xu Yingyuan smiled and said:

"This is not simple. No matter whether he is true or not, all you have to do is prove that he is false."

"how to prove?"

"Find someone to prove it!"

"Who?"

"Cui Mingji. This person is a veteran who has gone through two dynasties. Amin has been trying to win him over since he took over Seoul, but he apparently agreed and then secretly escaped from Seoul. When Amin found out, he was furious and ordered him to be arrested. .It was about to be dealt with, so we called. This guy should still be in prison now, and I don’t know if he is dead or not.”

"How do you know these things?" Zhang Zhiji asked strangely.

They are all rough men marching and fighting, why is the gap so big?
"I heard from the people in the restaurant."

No matter who told it, Zhang Zhiji ordered people to find Cui Mingji in the prison.

Cui Mingji is not dead, but he is almost there.

People who fought in the war were panicked, who has the time to control the life and death of the prisoners in the prison.

He ate one meal and starved twice in prison, and the meal manager would throw a cake when he remembered it, and forget it if he couldn't remember it.After more than a month, my face became so thin.

Zhang Zhiji ordered someone to serve him delicious food and drink for two days, and then he gradually became a man.

"I just asked the general, what can I do for you?"

Cui Mingji knew that there must be a price to pay for the delicious hospitality, so after being called by Zhang Zhiji, he immediately said straight to the point.

"Mr. Cui Yuan is transparent, and this general doesn't go around in circles. There is a man named Li Liang who claims to be the son of the former king Li Yan who lived among the people. But this general thinks he is a fake. Do you understand me?"

After Cui Mingji thought for a while, he knew Zhang Zhiji's plan.

He was silent for a while, looked at Zhang Zhiji and said:
"If I can't prove he's fake, I'll die. Is that right?"

The smile on Zhang Zhiji's face gradually disappeared, he leaned forward, and said slowly:
"No! Not only you have to die, your family members! Your relatives! Your friends! They all have to die!"

"Hahaha!"

After hearing Zhang Zhiji's words, Cui Mingji was not afraid, but laughed out loud.

"General Zhang, what kind of official position can I seek in Daming?"

"That depends on whether His Majesty is satisfied with your actions."

"When?"

"Tomorrow's hour."

"it is good!"

The next day

Qinzheng Hall
Zhang Zhiji summoned the ministers who were still alive in the court, and prepared to make a final screening of the three people who were finally screened out, among them was Li Liang.If there is a direct blood of the Lee family, he will be elected as the king of Joseon on the spot.

The first person to play was Li Zhe, who looked about 30 years old, handsome and well-mannered.

After some identification by the minister.Decide he is fake.

Push it out and cut it.

The other, Li Xuan, was so frightened that he peed his pants when he saw his companion hacked to death at the door.

"I'm fake! I'm fake! Let me go!"

Li Xuan's ugly behavior made the ministers in the palace frown.

"late!"

Zhang Zhiji waved his hand, and ordered Li Xuan to be pulled out and chopped.

In the end, only Li Liang, who was self-possessed, was left.Taking a deep breath, a confident smile appeared on his face.

The throne is mine now.

He repeated his story and took out the jade pendant that he had already prepared.

All the ministers passed it on to see it one after another, and they were all a little uncertain.Because it is indeed something in the palace, and it is true that only the king can use it.

Finally, the jade pendant was passed on to Cui Mingji.

He only frowned and glanced at it before returning to the tray.

"fake!"
