high official

Chapter 1088

Outside Tongzhou City, Zhu Gaosui's messenger came to the prince's camp overnight and presented Zhu Gaosui's handwriting.

The prince is a kind person after all, he didn't care about Zhu Gaosui's wording in the letter, after reading the letter, he just slowly said to Zhang Fu, Liu Sheng, etc.: "Third brother, I finally remembered that I want peace talks... "

"Your Highness! You can't negotiate peace with him!" Zhang Fu immediately objected loudly: "King Zhao is rebellious and openly raised his troops to rebel and proclaim himself emperor. If he can get a chance for peace talks in this way, I don't know how many ambitious people will follow suit tomorrow!"

Liu Sheng and the others did not speak, but nodded in agreement.

The prince glanced at the messenger, and said slowly: "You heard it, the lonely ministers all agree to the peace talks."

"Then we can only see you on the battlefield!" The messenger was quite talented, and he said eloquently, "Your Highness has always been famous for his benevolence, how could he bear to cause many soldiers and civilians to die in vain!"

"Bold!" Liu Sheng and others scolded, "It wasn't Zhao Ni who rebelled, so how could there be such a disaster?"

"But now His Highness refuses to stop the army..." The messenger sneered.

"Hehe, it's very simple to strike down. It doesn't have to be peace talks." The prince looked at the messenger and said calmly, "You bring a message to Gu's third brother, leave the city and surrender immediately, and Gu can save his life."

"..." The messenger paused, knowing that this was not a question he could answer, so he obediently withdrew.

As soon as the messenger left, all the generals retreated one after another, leaving only the British Duke in front of the prince.Zhang Fu frowned and said, "His Royal Highness, King Zhao killed his father, so he can't keep it."

The crown prince stared at the roof of the tent with a blank expression, his eyes lowered for a long time, he looked at Zhang Fu and said, "Emperor Daxing died of illness, and it has nothing to do with King Zhao or anyone..."

"This..." Zhang Fu frowned even tighter, and he was organizing his words when he heard the prince continue to say quietly: "I just think that the father is the spirit of heaven, and I don't want to see the history books record that he died unexpectedly. We must use Emperor Daxing The reputation of the..."

"Yes..." Zhang Fu had no choice but to nod in agreement, but his intuition told him that this was not a cover-up by the crown prince. The real reason for the death of Emperor Daxing was at least not the main reason.

.

By the time the messenger returned to the city, it was already midnight.Zhu Gaosui still didn't go to bed, but he was not waiting for a reply, but was holding a big wedding... Zhu Gaosui's princess was bestowed to death by Zhu Di in the scandal a few years ago, and she has never been married.

Now that he has ascended the throne, of course he cannot live without a queen. Zhu Gaosui originally planned to hold a conferment ceremony the day after he ascended the throne, but judging by the situation, it can only be brought forward.Fortunately, according to ancient rituals, the wedding should be held after dusk, which makes sense.

This post-sealing ceremony held in the middle of the night was even more shabby than the enthronement ceremony in the daytime, and it was similar to ordinary wealthy families getting married. However, it was destined to be an unprecedented and rare wedding, not only on the day of enthronement The marriage, and the selection of the empress, also stunned everyone watching the ceremony.

After appreciating Zhu Gaosui's performance art for a whole day, everyone thought that nothing could surprise them anymore, until they saw the empress with a phoenix crown and xiapei and bright eyes coming down from the sedan chair, they were all shocked. Chin, someone even sat down on the ground!
"Man!" The exclamation sounded uncontrollably.

The Minister of Rites and Zhongshu Sheren couldn't help shaking his hands, and a thick ink stain fell on a newly replaced daily life note...

The queen chosen by Zhu Gaosui is actually a man!Although he was as beautiful as a flower, surpassing most women in the world, his ashen beard and abrupt Adam's apple clearly showed his gender!It's a genuine man!
"Why, who stipulated that the queen must be a woman?" Zhu Gaosui changed into a dragon robe again, and his appearance was extremely tidy, as if he was ten years younger and returned to his youthful and handsome appearance.Seeing the fuss of the 'ministers', he frowned in displeasure, took the man's hand gently, embraced him in his arms, and said: "I dare to be the first in the world, and set an example by myself. From now on, People in the world who love each other, regardless of gender, can be married!"

After Zhu Gaosui finished speaking, the audience was completely silent...

This has always been Zhu Gaosui's long-cherished wish, and even one of his motivations for wanting to be emperor.Although it is not an ideal occasion now, being able to say these words still makes him flush with excitement!

Seeing the expressions of the officials as if they had eaten rats, Zhu Gaosui said displeased: "Why, do you dare to object?"

"I wait...don't dare." Based on the idea of ​​'as long as you are happy', the officials would not object to him when they were full.

Zhu Gaosui snorted, and said with a sneer, "I'm sorry you don't dare." He glanced at the "Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites" and said, "Have you written it down?"

The official who wrote the daily note ran through his mind with [-] kinds of beasts, and unconsciously wrote the word "日" one after another on the paper with the pen in his hand.Hastily lowered his head, changed a page, and scribbled down: "Ye, I got married, and I was a man. I said: From now on, people in the world who are in love with each other, regardless of gender, can be married..."

Only then did Zhu Gaosui contentedly take the queen's hand and enter the bridal chamber. As for how to get married inside and how to make friends with each other, it is beyond the knowledge of foreign ministers.

"Hey..." All the ministers looked at the 'Jiaotai Hall' illuminated by red candles, shook their heads and sighed, "Your Majesty is just messing around! How can you make a male favorite?"

"That's right, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted Han Yan to be the queen, luckily the queen mother stopped him, but there is no queen mother in this dynasty..."

"Ahem... my lords," an official with a fairly clear mind couldn't help complaining, "Are you serious?"

One sentence woke up the people who were too devoted, and they realized that everything in front of them was just a joke, and they couldn't help but hang their heads, and some people couldn't help but muttered: "If all this is true, so what if the queen is a man? "

"Yeah, I can marry a man..." The person next to me thought so deeply, and couldn't help sighing, "It's a pity..."

Everyone was hurting themselves. The messenger came in from the outside, sweating profusely. He looked at the red and green yard, and asked in a daze, "What's going on?"

"When you left the city, the emperor was already married." The person next to him told him: "And the queen is still a man..."

"Ah!" The messenger was stunned for a moment, then brought up the matter and said, "The prince has already answered."

"How?" Only then did everyone realize that this is a matter of life and death!
"The prince said that there is no way to negotiate peace, but to surrender unconditionally..." the messenger said.

"Ah, we have no control over this kind of thing." The adults looked at each other and said, "We must report to His Majesty immediately."

"Your Majesty is in the bridal chamber, who dares to disturb you?" Someone shook his head and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow to report."

"No, what if the crown prince can't wait for an answer, what should we do if we attack the city tomorrow?" The Minister of War said decisively, "Half of the officers and soldiers in the city have run away, and the remaining half are still planning to exchange our heads for rewards!"

"Then the emperor must be called." Everyone immediately agreed, but no one dared to be the one who stood out, for fear of being killed by the perverted Zhu Gaosui.

"Don't worry, isn't he addicted to being the emperor?" The Minister of Rites, who wrote the daily notes, said to himself: "Being called up in the middle of the night to deal with military affairs is also an experience for the emperor!"

Everyone thought it was true, so they went outside the "Jiaotai Hall" and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, please put the state affairs first, and take good care of the dragon's body!"

Sure enough, the door opened after a while, and Zhu Gaosui came out fully dressed, and said coldly, "What's the matter, making noise on my wedding night?" After a pause, he said, "If there's nothing serious, I'll cut off your dog's head!"

The ministers obediently reported the prince's words to Zhu Gaosui, Zhu Gaosui was silent for a while and said: "I can surrender..."

Although everyone was surprised, they still breathed a sigh of relief.But Zhu Gaosui changed the subject again: "But I have a condition..."

Everyone's hearts were lifted at once, lest he would make something wrong again.

"It will take a month before I can surrender." Zhu Gaosui said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this can't be done..." The messenger hastily persuaded, "The meaning over there is that the Emperor has to surrender tomorrow morning, otherwise they won't accept it..."

"Yes, Your Majesty, since you have made your decision, let's hurry up." Everyone also persuaded.

"Ten days..." Zhu Gaosui took a step back, and said with a displeased face, "I can't even be the emperor of ten days!"

"..." Only then did the crowd understand Zhu Gaosui's thoughts, and they couldn't help being contemptuous. The Minister of the Ministry of War persuaded: "Your Majesty, if you are late, you will change. Now the army in the city is not stable, and many people want to trade your majesty's life for their future. God, the consequences are unimaginable!"

"Well." Zhu Gaosui's expression changed obviously, and he did not insist anymore: "Then... how about three days..."

The ministers shook their heads.Zhu Gaosui gave another step and said, "Two days, it can't be shorter..."

All the ministers still shook their heads, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials persuaded: "Your Majesty, in two days, anything can happen, so why bother?"

Zhu Gaosui's eyes burst into flames, he exhaled deeply, and said without doubt: "After noon tomorrow, at least let my emperor be the emperor for a full day!"

"Hey, why bother Your Majesty?" Seeing him like this, the ministers finally agreed, but they still didn't understand that he insisted on being emperor for a whole day.

"I will be emperor longer than Wanyan Chenglin..." After Zhu Gaosui said this, he left the crowd who were looking at each other, and turned to go in.

"Who is this Wanyan Chenglin?" Many people looked at the Minister of Rites with bewildered faces. He came from a serious family background and was very knowledgeable.

The Minister of Rites sighed and said: "Emperor Wanyan Chenglin, the last emperor of the Jin Dynasty, has only been in power for half a day, and he is the emperor with the shortest reign time so far..."

"Oh, that's how it is!" Everyone suddenly realized, and now they understood Zhu Gaosui's obsession. How can a man be crowned with the title of 'the shortest in history'?
