scourge the qing dynasty

Chapter 427

On August [-], [-] AD, the first day of July in the fourth year of Honghua in the Great Zhou Dynasty, since the establishment of the Great Zhou Yue Palace, the six Cao palm seals and the four great scholars, except Xie Dong, who is also the household Cao palm seal left by the Governor of Liangjiang in Nanjing, are unprecedented. The first reunion in Beijing.At the same time, all the civil and military officials of the Fatty Army above the fourth rank in Beijing also participated in this gathering—to be precise, they should be equivalent to the civil and military officials above the fourth rank. Although not small, the grade is generally not high.

In addition, Wu Jun generals Ma Bao, Wang Pingfan, Tao Jizhi, Du Hui and Wu Guogui brothers who voluntarily or semi-voluntarily surrendered to the Fatty Army, and even Geng Jingzhong, no matter whether they served as real power officials in the Fatty Army's court or not. They were all specially summoned by Fatty Lu into the Forbidden City to participate in the meeting of the Great Zhouyue Palace in the Hall of Martial Arts.There was no festival or big celebration, and about [-] civil and military officials of all ages gathered in the Wuying Gate, which seemed very lively and strange at the same time.

"I'm afraid something big will happen today." Countless fat army officials have such a premonition, and think of the first day of the first month of the third year of Honghua a year and a half ago. Faced with the persuasion of hundreds of officials, Fatty Lu promised to come back in a year and a half. After giving the answer today, most of the fat military officials and upstarts who were looking forward to Fatty Lu becoming emperor to consolidate their vested interests are of course heart-thumping, but these fat military officials are extremely strange. Since Fatty Lu has made up his mind to become emperor, Why did he swear such a poisonous oath in public at the Temple of Heaven a year ago? Isn't this just adding infamy to himself for usurping the throne and proclaiming himself emperor?

"What the hell are you going to do, little bastard?" It's been almost a year since I became my son-in-law's younger brother. Of course, Wu Guogui has heard what the unscrupulous son-in-law said at the New Year's ceremony a year and a half ago, and he also knows that the unscrupulous son-in-law promised that he will return in a year and a half. Give an accurate answer to persuade all officials.Today's time has just arrived, and the unfilial son-in-law summoned so many important ministers to Beijing, Wu Guogui inevitably had a bad feeling in his heart, and couldn't help but quietly tugged on the sleeve of his third brother Wu Guozheng, and said in a low voice: "Guozheng, if the little bastard does something today What about that kind of thing?"

Wu Guozheng, who was rescued from the prison in Jingzhou by the Fatty Army, was silent, and after a while he replied in a low voice: "Brother must be overwhelmed, please pay attention, brother, today the guards in the Hall of Martial Heroes are still the same as usual, and there is no extra guard , and did not send troops into the palace, if my nephew wants to do such a thing, he will not be confused about such details."

Reminded by Wu Guozheng, Wu Guogui found out that the situation was just like what the third brother said, that in the Hall of Martial Arts where Fatty Lu lived, as usual, there were old lackeys Liu's brothers and Fatty Lu's personal soldiers standing guard on duty, and there was no extra guard on purpose. Increase the sentry and increase the strength of the troops. The gates of the Ningdao Hall and Huanzhang Hall on both sides of the Wuying Hall are also wide open. There is no ambush. relax a bit.

Of course, because of his understanding of the cunning son-in-law, it is impossible for Wu Guogui to be completely relieved. After careful consideration for a while, Wu Guogui pretended to walk around casually, and slowly came to Ma Bao, Wang Pingfan, Tao Jizhi and others who were chatting and laughing. Beside Wang Jizhen and others, while pretending to be joking with a few colleagues, they said in a low voice: "The scene today is not good. You have also heard about what happened on the first day of the first lunar month last year, and today happens to be the first day of the seventh lunar month. If today... ..., what are you going to do?"

Ma Bao and the others who were talking and joking suddenly became cold. After a moment of silence, Old General Ma suddenly waved to the side and laughed loudly: "Brother Du Hui, when did you come back from Liaodong? Why don't you go to my house for a while after you come back?" Come?" While calling Du Hui, General Ma slipped faster than a rabbit, Wang Jizhen was even more rude, and followed General Ma without even saying hello, and went to talk to Du Hui.

"Old slicker, the older you get, the more slippery you get." Wu Guogui spat at the back of General Ma, then turned to Wang Pingfan and Tao Jizhi who were still in place, without speaking, just staring at them, Wang Pingfan couldn't stand Wu Guogui's words Looking at him, he replied in a low voice: "Brother Guogui is overwhelmed. On July 28 last year, the prince swore such a poisonous oath in the Temple of Heaven. How could he do such a thing?"

"What if? What if he insists on doing that despite the infamy?" Wu Guogui asked.

Wang Pingfan and Tao Jizhi dared not speak anymore, but they were not as unfeeling as General Ma, who made excuses to slip away. Wu Guogui waited for a while, and seeing that the two kept their heads down and did not speak, he said in a low voice: "If he really dares to If I break my oath and break my promise, I will kill my relatives righteously, can you help me?"

Wang Pingfan and Tao Jizhi's expressions changed at the same time, and they subconsciously peeked around. Fortunately, Wu Guogui's voice was very low, and no one around could hear it, and no one paid attention to it. Wu Guogui frowned when he saw this, and said in a low voice: " You are so afraid of my unfilial son-in-law? Have you forgotten the kindness and caring of Emperor Gao of Taizu?"

"Of course I haven't forgotten." Wang Pingfan, who is very loyal to the old traitor of Wu, replied in a low voice: "If that's the case, I will definitely follow you to the death. I will submit to the prince, but I don't want to fight the civil war of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I don't want to point the gun at my own family. Brother, it’s not about betraying Taizu Emperor Gao.”

Wu Guogui nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his gaze to Tao Jizhi. Tao Jizhi hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't speak. Only Zheng nodded his head, and Wu Guogui was completely relieved, and said in a low voice: "If something like that happens in a while, I will find a chance to take it." Let him go, take him out of the city to Fengtai, and you cover me." Wang Pingfan and Tao Jizhi nodded together, and Wu Guogui was completely relieved.

At this time, Xiao Erlang came out from the hall to announce the promotion of the king of Yue to the palace. The fat man's civil and military officials hurriedly lined up and entered the Wuying hall. Dian strode out, walked to the center of the main hall and sat down, the fat man and all the military officials didn't dare to neglect, they quickly knelt down on one knee and sang in unison: "My lord is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

"Everyone, my lords, please stand up." Fatty Lu's voice was very gentle, and he said with a smile: "All of you, please stand up. To be honest, this king and you are colleagues of the Great Zhou court. In front of this king, There is no need to be too formal.”

"Thank you, my lord." The fat man and all the officers sang thanks, and got up one after another, anxiously waiting for the next sentence.

"My lords, I think you must have noticed." Fatty Lu said with a smile: "Today, not only officials from Gyeonggi and Zhili, but also General Gao Dejie and Du Hui who came from Liaodong to attend the meeting today General, Mr. Wang Shaobo and Mr. Wang Shirong and Bachelor Wang, who came here specially from the south of the Yangtze River, have arrived today since our Great Zhouyue Palace regained Beijing. Shaobo, Mr. Wang, this is the first time you have come to Beijing. Please stand up and let your colleagues know you."

"Of order." Wang Shaobo and Wang Shirong agreed, and stood up to let their colleagues in the north know. Wang Shaobo also jokingly said to himself: "My lords, please see clearly, Mr. Wang Shirong is the one who is extremely handsome, and I am the one who is extremely ugly." Wang Shaobo——Wang Shaobo, an ugly man from Guizhou whose reputation was wiped out by the examiner because he was too ugly. The contrast is sharp, and my lords must not get it wrong."

Fatty Lu took the lead in laughing, and there was a burst of relaxed laughter in the Hall of Martial Heroes. Wang Shirong, who has always been serious about his speech, couldn't help laughing, and said with a rare joke: "Mr. Li Cao, colleagues who want to be promoted, don't go to the wrong temple gate with a pig's head in worship."

There was another burst of laughter in the Hall of Martial Arts. Wu Guogui, Wang Pingfan and other loyal officials of the Wu family saw this scene, and gradually relaxed their nervousness. They thought that it was Fatty Lu who took the lead in not being serious because he was joking like this at the beginning of the meeting. It doesn't look like he is trying to usurp the throne.In the end, it was Fatty Lu who greeted him, saying that the political discussion was officially started, and the laughter in the Hall of Martial Heroes subsided, and Wang Shaobo and Wang Shirong also stood back to their original positions.

When the formal political discussion began, Fatty Lu said straight to the point: "My lords and generals, today I specially summoned so many officials to the Hall of Martial Arts to discuss the political affairs, and specially transferred Shaobo and Brother Dajie back from other places. On the first day of the first lunar month, in the Hall of Martial Heroes, some officials and generals came forward to persuade the king to establish himself as the emperor and change the dynasty. The king refused at that time, and promised to give you a clear answer today, one and a half years later. .So my king convened so many people today to fulfill the promise made on the first day of the first lunar month last year."

Nearly [-] Fatty Army civil and military officials were silent, holding their breath and waiting for Fatty Lu's next words, Wu Guogui and other loyal officials of the Wu family put their hearts in their throats.Fatty Lu deliberately whetted the appetite of everyone, first glanced around at the people present, and then said slowly: "Originally, just last night, this king was still preparing to reiterate his oath in front of you again, unless Deshengmen collapsed." , the Temple of Heaven gushing springs, otherwise this king will never proclaim himself emperor—but this morning, this king changed his mind again."

"The lord changed his mind?" There was a sudden commotion in the Hall of Martial Heroes, all the fat upstarts who were not from the Pingxi Palace were overjoyed, Ma Bao, Geng Jingzhong and others were indifferent, Wu Guogui and Wang Pingfan and other loyal officials of the Wu family were full of anger, Wu Guogui also came out angrily, and wanted to scold his son-in-law.

"Father-in-law, please calm down." Fatty Lu interrupted Wu Guogui first, and said with a smile: "My son-in-law knows what you want to say, but you don't need to worry, please allow my son-in-law to finish talking."

"What else do you want to argue with?" Wu Guogui also went all out, and asked with a sneer while preparing to pounce on his son-in-law.

"My son-in-law didn't intend to argue." Fatty Lu shrugged his shoulders imitating the habits of Westerners, and asked again: "Old Taishan, why didn't you ask why my son-in-law changed his mind? What did he change his mind about?"

Wu Guogui was taken aback, and couldn't help but ask, "Why did you change your mind? What are you planning to change?"

"The reason why I changed my mind." Fatty Lu said surprisingly, "It's because last night, I dreamed about Emperor Gao, the Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and talked with Emperor Taizu for a long time, so my son-in-law decided to change his mind."

"You dreamed about the Emperor Taizu?" Wu Guogui's nose was almost out of breath, and it was the first time he found out that there are people in the world who are so shameless that they use the excuse of Taizu's dream to usurp the throne!All the civil and military officials of the Fatty Army in the Hall of Martial Heroes were also stunned. They never thought that Fatty Lu was so shameless that he planned to use the old man Wu's excuse to break his promise.

"It's absolutely true." Fatty Lu nodded seriously, and said solemnly, "Not only did I dream about Emperor Taizu Gao, but I was also severely reprimanded by Emperor Taizu Gao. When I woke up, my body was covered in cold sweat."

Wu Guogui and everyone in the Hall of Martial Arts stared wide-eyed, increasingly confused about what kind of medicine was sold in Fatty Lu's gourd.Fatty Lu smiled again and asked, "Father-in-law, gentlemen, generals, do you want to know how Emperor Taizu Gao reprimanded me?"

"Please show me, my lord." The old lackey Wang Shaobo guessed that Fatty Lu's words must have a deep meaning, and quickly opened his mouth to wink. The other fat military officials also woke up and asked quickly.

"My lord scolded me and asked me why I made such a poisonous oath to the gods of heaven and earth at the Temple of Heaven?" Sure enough, Fatty Lu said the most shameless words in his life, "This king has the courage to ask the late emperor, I swear to the gods of heaven and earth at the Temple of Heaven What is wrong with making such an oath out of loyalty to the Great Zhou court and the late emperor? Guess what the late emperor answered?"

"Dare to ask the lord, how did the late emperor answer?" Yao Qisheng asked quickly.Wu Guogui quietly clenched his fists, waiting for his son-in-law to say something even more shameless, and immediately rushed forward and strangled the unfilial son-in-law to death!
"I can't say the answer of the first emperor, and I dare not say those rebellious words." Fatty Lu's answer made everyone confused again, and Fatty Lu shook his head again and said: "The only thing I can tell you is that the first The emperor warned me that if I did not take back the oath I made at the Temple of Heaven that day, the fulfillment of heaven would come, and the spirit of Emperor Taizu Gao in heaven would also be affected.”

When Fatty Lu spoke so far, the fat military officials present, no matter how stupid they were, could understand what Fatty Lu was saying—the old traitor Wu must have told Fatty Lu in his dream that Fatty Lu was the destiny , so the oath made by Fatty Lu will definitely be fulfilled, and it will also cause the old traitor Wu to suffer and suffer in the [-]th hell of the underworld. Therefore, only by withdrawing the oath can Fatty Lu prevent the Desheng Gate from collapsing on its own, the Temple of Heaven bursting into springs, Only in this way can he not implicate the old traitor Wu to suffer twice and suffer twice in the underworld—but, isn’t that too fantastic?
"The son-in-law is really loyal to Emperor Gao." Wu Guogui laughed back in anger, and laughed loudly: "In order not to let the heavens fulfill the vow of the son-in-law, and also to prevent the spirit of the emperor Gao in heaven from being punished by the vow of the son-in-law Injury, so son-in-law, you can only reluctantly withdraw your oath and become emperor?"

Wu Guogui's attitude was so excited that it shocked all the civil and military officials of the Fatty Army present. Generals such as Hu Tongchun, Han Yuanren, An Jiarong, and Line Fu, who were absolutely loyal to Fatty Lu, all quietly prepared to take Wu Guogui away at any time. After winning, Gao Dejie, Wang Xu and the others were also secretly vigilant, and were also ready to hold Wu Guogui back.But the Fatty Army civilian officials headed by Wang Shaobo and Yao Qisheng frowned. They didn't understand why Fatty Lu found such absurd excuses to renege on his oath and usurp the throne to claim the throne—there are many ways to break his oath, but why? Want to find such an excuse that is destined to be ridiculed by the world?

"Father-in-law misunderstood, of course not." Fatty Lu's answer made everyone dumbfounded again, and Fatty Lu said very seriously: "My son-in-law has received great kindness from the emperor, even if he is smashed to pieces, it is difficult to repay him. How could he do that?" An ungrateful animal act? Besides, the theory of ghosts and gods is illusory. How can my son-in-law's absurd dream happen to be true? If because of this absurd dream, my son-in-law commits unfaithful, unfilial, and ignorant beasts , wouldn’t it make the world laugh out loud?”

"You really think so?" Wu Guogui asked in surprise after being taken aback.

"Of course, my son-in-law not only thought this way, but also answered Taizu Gao in his dream." Fatty Lu replied loudly: "Not only did my son-in-law answer Taizu Gao in this way, but my son-in-law also answered Taizu Gao's question in the same way." In front of him, he offered to invite the temple name and spiritual seat of Emperor Taizu Gao into the Taimiao Temple in Beijing, and then cast a pure gold seated statue of Emperor Honghua, and invite the golden statue of Emperor Honghua into the Qianqing Palace, and place it on the dragon chair under the upright and bright plaque. Every day on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, he would lead civil and military officials to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to show respect, and then wipe out Guo Zhuangtu and other rebels as soon as possible, and welcome Emperor Honghua back to Beijing as soon as possible, and really sit on the dragon chair of Qianqing Palace !"

"Besides that!" Fatty Lu became more and more excited as he spoke, and he said loudly, "In order to show my heart to Emperor Taizu Gao, I also made a statement in front of Emperor Taizu Gao, and decided to move out of the Hall of Martial Arts, out of the Forbidden City, Move out of Beijing City! Live in the military tent of Fengtai Daying Camp. If I don’t welcome Emperor Honghua back, I will go back to Beijing City! Let everyone in the world know that I, Lu Yifeng, am a courtier of the Great Zhou Dynasty and have no ambition to usurp the throne. !"

The Hall of Martial Heroes fell silent again, including Wu Guogui, who were all dumbfounded and couldn't believe their ears. Fatty Lu, is he really such a loyal minister of the Great Zhou?After finally reacting, Wang Shaobo quickly jumped out, knelt down on his knees and said loudly: "My lord, you must not do this! Just like what my lord said, the stories of ghosts and gods are illusory, and things about dreams should not be trusted! Piao Miao Yimeng, moving away from the capital, wouldn't it make the world ridicule?"

"My lord, absolutely not!" Fatty's army, civil and military officials knelt down together, all opposing Fatty Lu to move out of Beijing.

"Your son-in-law, there is no need to do this." Wu Guogui also reacted, and quickly waved his hands and said, "My son-in-law, it's fine if you have this kind of heart, but you don't have to move out of the capital to live in Fengtai Daying. There are so many military affairs and political affairs to be represented, it is really inconvenient to live in Fengtai camp."

"Everyone, don't be in a hurry." Fatty Lu said with a wry smile, "I haven't finished talking yet, please start, please start."

"Thank you, my lord." The fat man and all the officers in the army breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly got up together.Wu Guogui hurriedly asked again: "My son-in-law, after you said these things in front of Emperor Taizu Gao, how did Emperor Taizu Gao answer you?"

"My son-in-law was slapped very hard by Emperor Gao." Fatty Lu's answer made everyone dumbfounded again. Fatty Lu stroked his fat cheek again, as if recalling the pain at that time, while recalling He said at the same time: "Emperor Taizu Gao beat me, and he still scolded me for what he did to him? He obviously told me that Wu Shi..., that Emperor Honghua didn't...no, in short, you just need to understand." , such rebellious words, this king must never say!"

Wu Guogui was so angry that he spoke, and all the civil and military officials of Fatty's army were dumbfounded, and they didn't understand how far Fatty Lu was going.

"Later." Fatty Lu continued: "Emperor Taizu Gao told me that if I really want to repay his great kindness, I can just invite his spiritual seat into the Taimiao. He is the grandfather of the king. God will not blame him if he is qualified to enter the Taimiao. But the golden statue of Emperor Honghua must not enter the Qianqing Palace. greater disaster."

"Of course, this king doesn't believe in such a thing. He insists on inviting the golden statue of Emperor Honghua into the Qianqing Palace. In the future, he will welcome Emperor Honghua back to Beijing to enthroned." Fatty Lu spread his hands, "The Great Emperor Emperor Gao was so angry that he slapped me again, and finally I woke up."

After listening to the fantasy, fairy tale and fantasy stories told by Fatty Lu, Wu Guogui was so confused that he couldn't figure it out. After listening for a long time, he couldn't understand what Fatty Lu was planning to do, whether he was planning to usurp the throne?Fatty Lu's confidant lackeys were also so angry that they wanted to drag Fatty Lu down and beat him up, and then pointed at Fatty Lu's nose and cursed - there is such an excuse for usurping the throne in the world, did you not wake up from the dream you had last night?

"Perhaps your lords think this king's dream is absurd, but this king is serious." Fatty Lu suddenly opened his mouth again, and said solemnly: "Although this king is not a golden word, a gentleman's promise is worth a lot of money, let alone this king. The king still made a promise in front of Emperor Taizu Gao? So this king has decided, I will move out of the Forbidden City today and live in Fengtai Daying! Today I will cast a golden statue of Emperor Honghua, and please enter Qianqing Palace for three kneelings and nine kowtows ! Fulfill the promise made in front of Emperor Taizu Gao, and use actions to prove this king's loyalty to the Great Zhou court! Also use actions to prove that this king has no second thoughts!"

"My lord must be crazy, either crazy or stupid!" The fat man, civil and military officials cried out in their hearts together, and hurriedly persuaded, "My lord, the stories of ghosts and gods are illusory, so don't let them fall apart just because of a dream or a sentence." Joke, just move out of Beijing."

"My virtuous son-in-law, there is no need to do this." Wu Guogui finally understood his son-in-law's loyalty to his adoptive father, and quickly persuaded him: "My virtuous son-in-law lives in the Forbidden City, although it seems a bit presumptuous, but I have not designated Beijing as my capital during the Great Zhou Dynasty. Living in the Hall of Martial Arts is not considered trespassing. If the son-in-law wants to prove his heart, he just needs to move out of the Forbidden City and live in a palace in the inner city of Beijing."

"This king is definitely not joking, let alone a joke!" Fatty Lu suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Everyone says that this king is trying to usurp the throne, and some even say that this king swore an oath at the Temple of Heaven just to leave the throne to Son! This king can't bear to be disturbed, so this king has decided that even if he doesn't live in the capital, he will live in the barracks. I want to have a look. Who else dares to say that this king has great respect for Da Zhou? The imperial court has two hearts!"

"My lord—!" Shaobo Wang screamed, "Your lord, your meritorious service is unmatched, and your virtue is worthy of the world!"

"My lord!" Countless fat military officials knelt down on their knees, kowtowed and said, "Your lord's virtue matches the world, his civilization combines civil and martial arts, he should be called emperor."

"My lords, there is no need to say too much. This king has made up his mind." Fatty Lu waved his hands, flatly refused, and said sincerely: "My lords, my generals, I accept your kindness, but this king accepts it first." There is no way to repay the great kindness of the emperor, and I am already extremely ashamed, how can I do such an unjust act? Please rest assured, gentlemen and generals, you are the pillars of the country, even if Emperor Honghua is welcomed back, he will definitely I will reuse you and will not treat you badly."

"It's no wonder you didn't treat us badly." The fat man's military dignitaries murmured in their hearts, and hurriedly persuaded Fatty Lu to give up the idea of ​​moving out of the Forbidden City, but Fatty Lu just refused. In the end, Wang Shaobo, Yao Qisheng and others had no choice but to say again: " Your lord, you also said that Emperor Taizu Gao warned that if the golden statue of Emperor Honghua is brought into the Qianqing Palace, the heavens will not only send warnings, but also disasters, what if the words of Emperor Taizu come true?"

"If Emperor Taizu Gao's warning really comes true..." Fatty Lu was waiting for these words, and after hesitating for a while he said: "If this is the case, then I will deal with it myself. I believe in destiny, I believe in Mingming Among them, they have their own will of God, and they believe in obeying the will of heaven and responding to the hearts of the people."

"It's easy to say if you have this sentence." Wang Shaobo, Yao Qisheng and others breathed a sigh of relief, and said together: "Anyway, my lord didn't dream of any disaster that Emperor Taizu Gao would bring. It's great to push the flood of locusts on Wu Shifan to prove that he didn't The blessing of the king should abdicate to the virtuous!"

"My virtuous son-in-law, what do you mean by that?" Wu Guogui also heard the flaws in Fatty Lu's words, and asked vigilantly, "Could it be that my virtuous son-in-law wants to say that if there is any disaster from heaven, my virtuous son-in-law will replace it?"

"Then how do you want me to answer?" Fatty Lu suddenly became furious, pointed at Wu Guogui's nose and growled: "This king has already decided to move out of the Forbidden City, and you still want to suspect that this king is planning to usurp the throne and stand on his own?! Do you want this king to take you away?" Helping you to the throne and letting the throne be named Wu immediately, do you believe that this king does not want to be the emperor?!"

"I don't dare!" Wu Guogui was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. All the fat military officials in the palace were also furious, hating Wu Guogui for the foolish, loyal and traitorous old Wu Guogui.Even Wang Pingfan and Tao Jizhi felt that Wu Guogui was too much, and Fatty Lu had already decided to move out of the Forbidden City, so why did he still suspect that Fatty Lu was planning to usurp the throne?

"It's fine if you don't dare." Fatty Lu snorted coldly, "From today onwards, your position as admiral of Fengtai will be handed over to Hu Tongchun. You will live in the inner city of Beijing and take over as the head of the imperial guards to protect the golden statue of Emperor Honghua and Taizu. The high emperor's spiritual position! The defense of Deshengmen is up to you! Again, unless Deshengmen collapses on its own and the Temple of Heaven and Earth burst into springs, this king will never proclaim himself emperor! This king wants you to watch it with your own eyes, this king Are there any tricks like that?"

"The minister leads the decree." Wu Guogui, who knew that he had committed the anger of the public, reluctantly agreed.

"Preach Jun's decree." Fatty Lu stood up and shouted loudly: "Li Cao quickly casts a golden statue of Emperor Honghua, please enter the Qianqing Palace and take his place. This king will invite all civil and military officials to bow down in person. This king will move out immediately Forbidden City, move to Fengtai camp!"

"I would like to abide by the order of the lord, and the lord will be a thousand years old!" The fat man's civil and military officials also kowtowed helplessly, sang promises in unison, and said together: "What kind of medicine is sold in the lord's gourd? I really don't intend to. Do you want to be called the emperor, or do you think that you are destined to belong to heaven, and believe that Deshengmen will collapse on its own, the Temple of Heaven will burst into springs, and heaven will send disasters?"

"My lord, Fengtai is full of military camps and there are no houses." Huang Ji asked cautiously, "Did your lord order to build some houses in Fengtai for his residence?"

"I'm confused, I finally found an excuse to live in a shock-absorbing shed, and can I still live in those temporary houses?" Fatty Lu muttered in his heart, and sighed: "No, the war is endless, the treasury If you are running out of money, don’t add any more burden to the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Anyway, this king has been in the army for many years, and he is also used to living in the military tent. Let's discuss."

"My lord, why do you wrong yourself so much?"

Someone finally cried out. To show their loyalty, the Hall of Martial Heroes burst into tears. Wu Guogui, Wang Pingfan and the others also had sore noses. They all regretted their suspicion of Fatty Lu. Fatty Lu wanted to prove that he had no intention of usurping the throne. , has already wronged himself to this point, and we still persecute Fatty Lu so much, it is too much to treat Fatty Lu's gentleman with a villain's heart.

"It's still more convenient to start from scratch like Zhu Yuanzhang." Fatty Lu sighed quietly again in his heart, "Those who started their business by speculation and cheating like me will have to suffer more and suffer more."
