Chapter 8 The atmosphere is weird
Chapter 8 The atmosphere is weird
Ming Xizong passed away suddenly, and the whole bedroom was immediately filled with sadness. Empress Zhang and Ren Guifei threw themselves on Ming Xizong's body and cried desperately, and all the ministers present were also weeping silently.
Zhu Cijiong was even more confused, kneeling there not knowing what to do, not even knowing whether he should get up or not.
After half the payment, Sun Chengzong's mournful roar suddenly came from behind: "Respectfully send off the emperor."
Wei Zhongxian and Mrs. Fengsheng, who had been standing in front of the dragon bed, knelt down when they heard the sound. Everyone present kowtowed to Ming Xizong nine times, and then King Xin, Sun Chengzong, Wei Zhongxian, and Mrs. Fengsheng stood up slowly one after another.
Xin Wang Zhu Youjian stepped forward to help Zhu Cijiong, and then stood there, silently looking at Sun Chengzong and Wei Zhongxian.
The two of them stared at each other solemnly at this moment, and the air seemed to freeze.
At this time, Sun Chengzong's eyes were burning with raging anger, and the voices and smiles of countless Donglin party comrades appeared in his mind. These people were basically killed by Wei Zhongxian!As the only remaining leader of the Donglin Party, he has always wanted to seek justice for his dead comrades.But when Ming Xizong was there, Wei Zhongxian relied on the relationship between Mrs. Fengsheng and Ming Xizong to keep suppressing him as the emperor's teacher, so he had to resign and go back to seclusion.Now that Ming Xizong passed away, Mrs. Fengsheng no longer had the detached status of the past, it's time to settle the blood account of the Donglin Party members with Wei Zhongxian.
Although Wei Zhongxian was a little guilty, but thinking about his party members all over the government and the public, he regained his confidence. He just looked at Sun Chengzong coldly and looked at what Sun Chengzong wanted.
Although most of the court officials present were Wei Zhongxian's henchmen, they were attached to Wei Zhongxian, mostly because Wei Zhongxian was the spokesperson of Ming Xizong. Now that Ming Xizong is gone, Sun Chengzong has become the chief assistant again. It is not yet known who will die. No one is stupid. Stand up and be the first bird.
The eerie atmosphere lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Except for Empress Zhang and Concubine Ren who were still crying in the bedroom, no one else dared to take a breath.
In the end, Wei Zhongxian couldn't hold his breath anymore. He gave Sun Chengzong a hard look, as if saying to Sun Chengzong: "Let's ride a donkey to read the libretto and wait and see."
Then, he shouted to the outside with a thin voice: "The emperor is dead, and the death knell will ring ten thousand times."
After shouting, he snorted slightly, and walked out without even looking at Prince Zhu Cijiong and Xinwang Zhu Youjian. Such an arrogant eunuch is probably the only one in history.
Mrs. Fengsheng saw that Wei Zhongxian was gone, and gave Sun Chengzong a fearful look, and followed her out.
Sun Chengzong wiped away the tears on his face, squinted his eyes to look at the backs of Wei Zhongxian and Mrs. Fengsheng, and said loudly: "Shi Fenglai, Minister of the Ministry of Rites."
One of the ministers replied: "The humble minister is here."
Sun Chengzong ordered directly: "You prepare for the emperor's funeral quickly, and everyone else should leave."
All the ministers replied in unison: "As ordered, I will retire."
Then, they got up one after another and walked out, even Shi Fenglai followed to get ready to go.
At this time, only Empress Zhang, Concubine Ren, King Xin, Sun Chengzong and Zhu Cijiong were left in the bedroom.
After all the ministers had left, Xin Wang Zhu Youjian asked in fear: "Master Sun, Wei Zhongxian is so powerful, what shall we do?"
This is exactly what Zhu Cijiong wanted to ask, even if your Sun Chengzong is Minister Gu Ming, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the Minister of the Ministry of War, so what, almost the entire court is now Wei Zhongxian's eunuchs!
Sun Chengzong heard the words, took a deep look at Ming Xizong on the dragon bed, and then replied: "His Royal Highness, please rest assured, the emperor has already made arrangements."
Don't worry!Not to mention the seventeen or eighteen-year-old King Xin, even the five-year-old fake prince Zhu Cijiong doesn't believe it.
Wei Zhongxian's henchmen are terrifying, five tigers, five biaos, ten dogs, ten children, none of them are important officials of the court, even the last forty grandsons are high-ranking and powerful people.In addition, under the sect of this group of people, it can be said that from the cabinet to the six ministries to the governors and governors of various places, they are basically his people. The entire court is almost occupied by him, otherwise how dare he claim to be nine thousand years old!
King Xin was naturally worried, and he asked again: "What's the arrangement, Brother Huang?"
Sun Chengzong showed a mysterious expression, and shouted directly to the outside: "Come here."
A dull-faced eunuch entered in response, knelt down in front of the three of them, and said respectfully: "Your highness, my servant, will see His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness King Xin, and Lord Sun."
Sun Chengzong ordered in a low voice: "Speech that Cao Huachun will come to see you."
The eunuch obeyed, and quickly retreated.
When the letter king Zhu Youjian heard Cao Huachun's name, his eyes brightened immediately, and he murmured: "It turns out that Eunuch Cao is back, it's all right now, all right now."
What the hell is this Cao Huachun?Why does the letter king Zhu Youjian have so much confidence in him?
However, since Sun Chengzong and Zhu Youjian valued Cao Huachun so much, they naturally had their reasons, and he must be a person who can turn the tide.
It was only at this time that Zhu Cijiong came back to his senses a little. He suddenly remembered that it seemed that the king of faith, Zhu Youjian, had cleaned up Wei Zhongxian soon after he ascended the throne. It seemed that Ming Xizong had really arranged everything.Otherwise, how could Zhu Youjian, a prince who was waiting to be released in the capital, easily defeat Wei Zhongxian, who had all the power in the court and the public? Didn't he have no foundation like himself at that time.
Thinking about it, Zhu Cijiong's tense nerves slowly relaxed. He looked at Empress Zhang and Concubine Ren who were crying desperately on the dragon bed, sighed secretly, and walked forward.
He just promised Ming Xizong to treat these two mothers well, to be honest, and to do what he promised others.
If they kept crying like this, they would probably faint from crying in a short time. Zhu Cijiong couldn't ignore it, and the only one who could persuade them now was His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince.
How to advise?It's very simple, just pretend to be pitiful.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked up and took Concubine Ren's arm, shook her gently a few times, and said pitifully, "Mother, don't cry, I'm afraid."
This trick really worked, Concubine Ren immediately stopped crying when she heard the words, raised her head, hugged Zhu Cijiong in her arms, and comforted: "Oh, oh, Jiong Er, don't be afraid, I won't cry, I won't cry anymore."
Zhu Cijiong took Queen Zhang Yan's hand and shook it, and said pitifully, "Queen, don't cry either."
This person has a mentality of joining in the fun. Originally, when two people cried together, they didn't feel anything when they cried well. Suddenly, one of them stopped crying, and the other felt weird.
The empress Zhang Yan was originally ice-snow and smart, but she lost her position when she was too sad for a while, but when she suddenly recovered, she realized that now is really not the time to cry.Now that the entire palace is in danger, she cried like this in the dark and lost her position, fearing that she would be eaten by Wei Zhongxian and Mrs. Fengsheng in a short time.
Zhu Cijiong's reminder was just in time, she gently touched Zhu Cijiong's head, choked up and said: "Well, Jiong'er is good, the queen mother will stop crying."
Seeing Zhu Cijiong's performance, Zhu Youjian and Sun Chengzong looked at each other in relief, and they both thought that His Royal Highness was smart and filial, and he should be a wise king in the future.
After the Queen Zhang Yan came to her senses, she tidied up her appearance and asked worriedly, "Master Sun, does the Emperor have any arrangements?"
Sun Chengzong replied: "If you go back to the empress, the emperor has transferred Cao Huachun and other eunuchs from Nanzhili to protect the empress and the prince."
Empress Zhang seemed to have a lot of confidence in Cao Huachun, so she couldn't help asking, "Where is the person?"
Sun Chengzong replied respectfully: "I am waiting outside the palace, and I have ordered someone to pass it on."
Empress Zhang asked worriedly again: "At this time, Wei Zhongxian is afraid that the palace has been sealed off, can they come in?"
Sun Chengzong replied affirmatively: "Others may not be able to come in, but Cao Huachun will definitely be able to come in."
Can you really come in?This palace is Wei Zhongxian's lair, and Zhu Cijiong's petite heart can't help but jump up.
He is really scared now, Wei Zhongxian's power is really terrifying, he probably crushed himself to death as easily as crushing an ant.
The difficulty of this honor task is really too high, he doesn't even know if he can survive to the moment when he succeeds to the throne.
