At the end of the Ming Dynasty, I freely traveled through Yangshen

Chapter 52
But Wang Chengen actually understands very well in his heart that even if he is a talented person, even if he arranges for a palace maid to enter the East Palace, he still has to ask the emperor to instruct the cabinet, and then the cabinet vote is drafted, the emperor approves, and the Ministry of Rites handles it. How can there be any formal process now? The prince's plan with him was so simple that the younger sister of the Wu family was directly sent to the palace with a fabricated edict.

However, that set of etiquette is still too time-consuming. Since Wu Sanmei will definitely not be able to become the crown princess through this method, and Zhu Cihong doesn't want to wait that long, she can only use extraordinary means to get on the train first and pay for the ticket.

Now the situation is urgent. On the one hand, the Ming Dynasty will soon be defeated by Li Zicheng in Beijing. Now Zhu Cixiang is clearly the one who arranges for Emperor Chongzhen to move south. Moving south, moving south, doesn't it sound like fleeing south?

Now Zhu Cihong's plan is to tie Wu Xiang and his group first. Anyway, when Li Zicheng and the others are calling, they will decide how many people to move south, whether to move south or enter the Yangshen world first to avoid disasters, isn't it all him? The prince has the final say.

As soon as Li Zicheng arrived and internal and external troubles emerged, Zhu Cihong had many ways to make the people in the Sixth Department of the Cabinet obedient.

When he mentioned this matter, who among the six cabinet departments would dare to put eye drops on him without opening their eyes? Zhu Cixiang really dared to throw a person with no eyesight directly into Li Zicheng's hands and let him fend for himself. .

However, it is not that simple to just hold Wu Xiang's daughter in his hands. Wu Xiang will not send his daughter immediately just because of Zhu Cixiang's words. Although the name "father-in-law" sounds nice, but Who is Wu Xiang? He is a cunning soldier and ruffian in Guan Ning's army. It is not that simple to trap him, so Zhu Cihong and Wang Chengen combined to cause such a thing.

Wang Chengen and Zhu Cixiang had their own agendas. Under Zhu Cixiang's deception, Wang Chengen knew that he had to rely on the strength of Guan Ning's army to go south, but Zhu Cixiang wanted to invade the world of Yangshen from Wu Xiang and Wang Chengen. The first pot of gold.

Of these two guys, Wang Chengen had money, soldiers, armor, and weapons, while Wu Xiang had middle-level generals and a Guan Ning Group in Shanhaiguan.

It was because Zhu Cixiang understood this that he had to hurry up and get the matter done. This was because Juyongguan had not yet been defeated, and the court still had great justice and authority, so he decided to settle the matter quickly and promised in the name of Emperor Chongzhen. Giving Wu Xiaomei a title seemed to be very polite. After all, the emperor could still be a dictator with a sacred heart, but Wu Xiang did not have any doubts about this.

To Wu Xiang, who thought the court was going to run away, things seemed more reasonable.

After all, rules are dead and people are alive. The emperor cannot fail to give orders and not run away when it is time to run. Are there really honest people in this world who don't even know how to run?

No way?No way?No way?
But Wu Xiang didn't know that there was an honest man in front of him who didn't even know how to run away. This honest man was the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch of the ceremony, Wang Chengen.

"In this case, I understand everything." Wu Xiang thought he understood everything, and the smile on his face could not be removed, "As long as His Majesty's decree is issued, then I will act in accordance with the decree. My little daughter was sent to the palace to follow Prince Kunimoto."

"it is good."

Zhu Cixiang was overjoyed when he heard this, "Old Taishan, this is how I feel. I think the temperament of the rich man is a bit like that of Old Taishan. The son-in-law is here to make a statement. A gentleman's words are hard to follow. When he reaches Jiangnan, the son-in-law will Let the daughter be the princess, and then the Wu family and the Zhu family will be one family." Does this guarantee that as long as you go to Jiangnan, you will at least have a future as a princess?

Does that mean that as long as you give birth to a son, when your son-in-law takes the throne and becomes the emperor, your little sister will become the queen?
Wu Xiang smiled so hard that his lips almost split open to his ears. This was perfect. His daughter had the chance to become a queen, and his son Wu Sangui was a military leader with military power. So his Wu family was in the southeast, right? Do you have half the right to speak?What is this? This is huge wealth!
But to his joy, Wu Xiang, the leader of the warlord, was not talked about by Zhu Cixiang. He actually understood the meaning of what the prince did. The prince did not like Wu Xiaomei at all. They had never met each other, and they could not talk about love. It's false. The prince's move was not because he was interested in the Wu family's military strength.

Although the Crown Prince has great righteousness and is nominally the crown prince of a country, in fact, the Ming Dynasty may be destroyed. I don’t know how much this prince is worth. Just relying on righteousness is not enough these days. Take Japan next door. The emperor's lineage with great righteousness should still be fed to death by the forceful Tokugawa shogunate.

Therefore, the Crown Prince is greedy for the Wu family’s military power. The marriage between the Wu family and the Crown Prince is a political marriage. It is nothing more than an exchange of force and political status. The Crown Prince goes to Jiangnan with the Wu family’s military power. Even the prince with real power in the southeast is not necessarily a good person, there is also Shi Kefa.

The Wu family dare not say anything else. There are still some ways to defeat the Tatars, and even if they cannot defeat the Tatars, the defense problem is not big. Isn't that what they did in Shanhaiguan? Therefore, the Wu family only needs to go to the south of the Yangtze River and does not ask for the Northern Expedition. Jiang Erzhi can still do it after all, and half of the Ming Dynasty will be stable.

At the same time, because of marriage and wealth, the Wu family will desperately support the crown prince as emperor and Wu Sanmei as queen. This will make Zhu Cihong's position extremely stable after he goes to Jiangnan. Even if Emperor Chongzhen wants to move Zhu Cihong or change the country, Then you have to carefully consider whether the Wu family's military force can be easily modified.

So in an instant, Wu Xiang already knew what the Wu family should do in the future.

Wu Xiang got up at this time, and asked Zhu Cihong and Wang Chengen, "Lord Qiantui, Lord Governor, the emperor's secret decree to let the dog travel south with you has not yet been issued, right?"

Zhu Cixiang nodded at this, "Not so fast, but Admiral Wu still needs to understand. This decree must be a formal decree, and the emperor cannot pass it through the cabinet and the Ministry of War. After all, this is a secret decree. If this procedure is followed, the whole court must know it. But because it is a decree, General Wu will have to return the decree to the emperor without saying anything."

Zhongzhi, Zhongzhi, Zhongzhi is an illegal imperial edict. Since it is illegal, Wu Sangui actually has the right not to execute it. After all, the cabinet does not have a decree drafted by the people. As long as he dares to implement it, he will offend the cabinet and the civil service group. But Once it is not implemented, the emperor will be offended. No matter how you look at it, it will be a dilemma and neither party will be pleased.

So it is very possible to be returned.
