I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 14 Zhu Houzhao’s backup plan! The first assistant is dizzy!

Capital, Fengtian Palace.

"Miss!"

"Master Chief Assistant, I really don't know where your Majesty is!"

Zhang Yong, who looked embarrassed, knelt on the ground in fear and said tremblingly: "Three days ago, His Majesty only asked the young man to guard the palace, and then told everyone that he was sick and no one was allowed to visit him. The young man really couldn't bear it. Now, let’s go to Huangjue Temple to find Gu Dayong…”

"Your Majesty, your Majesty arranged for me to go to Huangjue Temple to pretend..."

Gu Dayong was still kneeling next to Zhang Yong. Gu Dayong also burst into tears and said: "Your Majesty said, I can't bear it and let everyone go to the imperial mausoleum to find Ma Yongcheng..."

Ma Yongcheng, who was on the other side, also relayed: "The younger one here only received an oral instruction from His Majesty, saying that the younger one was found, and asked everyone to find Gao Feng."

"Your Majesty, your majesty said that we have found the little one. Give this treasure box to everyone, so that everyone will know where he is."

Gao Feng pointed to an iron box on the main hall and was also worried.

At this time, other craftsmen were working hard to open the iron box.

In order to delay the time for everyone to find him, Zhu Houzhao designed a special hide-and-seek game for everyone before leaving.

The other four eunuchs of the Eight Tigers became victims.

"Your Majesty, I blame this old slave. I received your Majesty's order earlier and asked me to go to Taiyuan to pick up something in person. It was said that my Majesty needed it urgently, but who knew that Your Majesty actually..."

Wang Yue, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, also had a look of guilt and self-blame. Only then did he realize that he was being played around by Zhu Houzhao. At the same time, he also realized that Zhu Houzhao had been wary of him for a long time.

"Absurd! Ridiculous!"

"Your Majesty, he is really..."

Liu Jian was so angry that his beard exploded and he was trembling all over. Zhu Houzhao gave them a big surprise by doing this, which really made them angry and aggrieved.

"Where's Liu Jin! It must be Liu Jin!"

"He bewitched Your Majesty again."

"No, he might even have killed His Majesty!"

"Go and catch him quickly!"

"There are so many people in the capital, but you can't find your Majesty?"

"Could he have left the capital?"

Only then did the civil and military officials burst into an uproar. Only then did some people know that Zhu Houzhao had been missing for three days. Immediately, some people were shocked and angry. They were so frightened by this bolt from the blue that they could hardly think.

Who would have thought that Zhu Houzhao would play so big this time.

"We have already found Liu Jin. According to the report from Jinyiwei, a group of suspicious people did leave the capital three days ago. Qianhu Qianning from Jinyiwei and his two flags also disappeared."

"Perhaps, His Majesty has already left the capital. I just don't know where he went?"

Yang Tinghe was no longer so angry. Instead, he calmly watched the craftsman opening the box, thinking about where Zhu Houzhao could go and why he wanted to play this game for them.

"We checked all places along the road, especially at the Jiubian pass, and there was no sign of His Majesty..."

"At this time, it seems that we still need to open this box to know where your Majesty has gone."

Li Dongyang also looked helpless. They found out that Zhu Houzhao was missing the next day, so they started various investigations. The first one they investigated was Jiubian. After all, Zhu Houzhao wanted to fight since he was a child.

Unfortunately, after a day of secret search and investigation, there was no news or clues. I immediately knew that I could no longer hide it and had to open up and search on a large scale.

"Where can your Majesty go?"

"Could it be that our petition that day made His Majesty angry?"

"After all, your Majesty is only a sixteen-year-old boy..."

The civil servants looked at the cabinet ministers who were relatively calm and couldn't help but reflect on whether they had gone too far, especially if Liu Jian was pushing too hard?

Zhu Houzhao's move could be regarded as unintentionally introducing conflicts within the civil service, especially targeting the chief minister Liu Jian and the cabinet.

"We are here for the country and the country!"

"No matter how emotional your Majesty is, you should put the country, the country, and the country first!"

"Whatever he wants to do, just discuss it with us!"

"Is it worth hiding from us in this way?"

The discussions among the civil servants also made Liu Jian's face turn blue and white, and even his vision went dark and he almost fainted. He already felt some more or less reproachful looks.

The emperor was forced to flee by them. This kind of drama in which ministers forced the emperor to flee was truly the only one in thousands of years.

Regardless of whether Liu Jian thought about it or not, as the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty who was inferior to one person and more than ten thousand people, he had to bear the blame.

If word spreads, he will more or less get a bad reputation as a powerful official.

"Master Liu, it's not that I'm talking about you, it's because you pushed the emperor too hard, otherwise the emperor wouldn't be like this."

"I have just lost my late emperor not long ago. If something happens to the emperor who was forced by you, what should you do if I, a woman like you, do this?"

Just when Liu Jian was furious, Empress Dowager Zhang struck her with another blow, shirking responsibility, and Liu Jian almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe also looked ugly. The Queen Mother must be too good at shirking responsibility.

"That's right, how old is your Majesty! He is sixteen years old, and you force him to do this and that every day, and you don't allow him to do this and that! Young man, what's wrong with having fun? Your Majesty, has he done anything evil?"

"Brother is right! And sister, no, the Queen Mother is right too! It was you who forced His Majesty to do this and that all day long, so His Majesty couldn't bear it and ran away from home!"

"If it were me, I would run away from home too!"

When Empress Dowager Zhang opened her mouth, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling, who were hated by everyone, also added insult to injury.

As Zhu Houzhao's two uncles, they are rarely on Zhu Houzhao's side now.

puff!

Finally, under such ridicule, Liu Jian broke through.

A mouthful of old blood spurted out in front of the court, and he immediately fell down on the hall.

"Imperial physician, imperial physician!"

There was a panic in the court room, and Li Dongyang pinched Liu Jian's head hard before Liu Jian woke up slowly. Liu Jian opened his eyes and looked hopeless.

Click!

Fortunately, at this time, the craftsmen finally opened the iron box left by Zhu Houzhao.

"It's opened! The box His Majesty left behind is opened!"

Zhang Yong immediately shouted with surprise, and the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling rushed to the iron box immediately and picked up the envelope inside.

"Queen Mother Qinqi!"

The words on the envelope were read by them.

The two brothers didn't care about etiquette and opened the envelope directly in front of all the civil and military officials.

Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe also looked over immediately.

"Ah... His Majesty said that he dreamed that Taizu scolded him for not managing the country well, so he ran to Jinling overnight?"

Zhang Heling picked up the important information and read it out.

"what?"

"Your Majesty went to Jinling?"

"Going to Jinling to worship Taizu..."

"This……"

The civil and military officials immediately looked at each other, thinking that this reason was nonsense, but Zhu Houzhao's reason was so impeccable that they could not even express blame.

"Went to Jinling..."

Yang Tinghe and Li Dongyang looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of fear in each other.

As political animals, they suddenly became vaguely aware of the profound meaning of Zhu Houzhao's move.

"Your Majesty is harming me!"

Liu Jian shouted on the spot, kicked his feet, and fainted completely.

Obviously, Liu Jian also realized that as soon as Zhu Houzhao's letter came out, he, the chief minister, would be completely nailed to the position of a powerful minister exercising power.

His innocence is gone.
