I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 69 The feudal king makes his grand appearance! King Anhua: I am afraid that Your Majesty will not be ambitious!

News of the arrival of the cabinet in Jinling.

Like a stone thrown into the lake, it quickly spread in Jinling and caused many waves.

Prince Qing's Mansion.

The forty-five-year-old Anhua King Zhu Chixiu also gathered because of the arrival of the cabinet. He was also higher in seniority than Zhu Houzhao and was of the same generation as Zhu Qizhen. According to his seniority, Zhu Houzhao also had to call him his great-grandfather.

Because his great-grandfather, Zhu Yuan, the king of Qing in the early Ming Dynasty, was the sixteenth son of Zhu Yuanzhang.

The first King Qing lived a long life. It went through the six dynasties of Hongwu, Jianwen, Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande and Zhengtong and enjoyed 6 years of vassalage.

The third son of the first King Qing was named King Anhua by Zhu Di. Zhu Zhixiu is now the second generation of King Anhua.

Their lineage has been in Shaanxi for a long time. Although they have been suppressed by Zhu Di, they are basically stable. They can be a rich man in peace. It's just that if they live a good life for too long, they will inevitably have some ideals.

Anhua King Zhu Zhixiu had been restless since he was a child. In the fifth year of Hongzhi's reign, he took over the throne. In addition, the land was considered to be far away from the capital, Emperor Tiangao. During the reign of Emperor Hongzhi, there was no suppression, so he had little prestige.

As time went by, he had some thoughts.

He began to recruit a group of loyal supporters and slowly waited for the opportunity.

According to the original history, he officially rebelled in the fifth year of Zhengde. He united with the local military attachés in Ningxia and tried to defeat Liu Jin in the name of public opinion. However, he was defeated in just ten days.

But in this era, the time has not yet come.

It was the rising period, the testing period, and the transformation period when his rebellion was in full swing. Because of Zhu Houzhao's operation, he was finally able to enter Beijing as a vassal king, and he was now so close to the emperor.

(PS: Please don’t worry about why the vassal kings from various places came so quickly. You just ask to speed up the plot.)
"Your Majesty, why do I feel that something is wrong..."

"Your Majesty summoned all of you vassal kings to Jinling. Why do you feel that your majesty is using the vassal kings and the cabinet to fight for power?"

Staff member Sun Jingwen took the lead in speaking.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I don't feel right either. Your Majesty is doing this ancestor worship. On the surface, it's for ancestor worship, but in fact it's to compete with the cabinet, right?"

Shi Lian also quickly expressed his opinion: "We must not be careful and be affected. Your Majesty came to Jinling privately without the permission of the cabinet this time. I heard that Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, fell ill because of this. "

Sun Jingwen and Shi Lian are the sleeping dragon and phoenix chicks of King Anhua, and are dog-headed military advisors.

Although they were dog-headed military advisors, with the arrival of the cabinet, they also found that the situation had changed from confusing to gradually becoming clearer.

As time goes by, the fact that Zhu Houzhao was forced by the cabinet to flee to Jinling has almost spread to the whole country.

Jinling, who is at the center of the storm, even knows more than the outside world knows.

Although the people present here are not as good as those old fritters in the officialdom, their biological ability and political sense of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages naturally allowed them to see Zhu Houliang's plan.

"Indeed, Your Majesty, our vassal prince seems to have a high position, but he is not strong. Once he accidentally gets involved, it may be dangerous. Then he may not get anything, but also make a mess. Your Majesty, how about... Let’s find a chance and let’s go?”

Shi Zhuxia, the palace chief, also showed a hint of worry. After all, the power of the Ming vassal king was not as powerful as that of a county magistrate, let alone getting involved in such things. If he was not careful, he would be wiped out.

"Ha! Can we still leave?"

Faced with some negative emotions from the team, King Anhua snorted coldly and said with great dissatisfaction: "What reason does this king give for leaving? I feel unwell and do not worship Taizu? Besides, he wants to use us as chess pieces to fight with the cabinet. I’m just afraid that my great-grandson might accidentally hurt himself by playing with a big knife!”

"I'm afraid that he doesn't have ambitions! It's better to have ambitions! He also knows that our vassal king is not strong enough! That's fine, he wants us to fight with civil servants, give soldiers and power! Otherwise, we really think that everyone is Fool?"

"I feel that now is an opportunity! At first, I couldn't see what he wanted to do. Now that I can see it, I can also seek our interests!" "It's just you who make me very sad. What a disappointment! What kind of situation is this? You guys have backed down before anything has happened?"

The merciless contempt and suspicion appeared on King Anhua's face, which directly hurt this group of people.

"Your Majesty, no... we are not planning for a rainy day..."

"Your Majesty, we don't have..."

Sun Jingwen and Shi Lian quickly tried to explain.

"No need to say it! There is nothing to explain! If you want to follow this king and achieve a career, you must not only have brains, but also have courage! If there is more, I don't want to say any more. If you don't have the courage, go back to your hometown and won't leave. Yes, I don’t want to see anyone retreating next!” King Anhua interrupted the two men’s explanations arrogantly.

The study became quiet. The three of them were ashamed, but soon they all had firm eyes.

"Your Majesty, we know what to do!"

No need for heroic words, they showed their determination.

"That's good! This is what the king wants from you!"

"So what if the cabinet is here... This is actually an opportunity! The harder they fight, the more benefits we may gain."

King Anhua said: "So, what I will do next is entirely up to you!"

"Your Majesty, now that it is clear that His Majesty wants to take advantage of us... Now that the cabinet has arrived, it is Your Majesty who is under pressure! Your Majesty will go to see Your Majesty tomorrow and speak directly..." Sun Jingwen suddenly had a clear mind and gave his opinion.

"No, this is inappropriate! We don't have to stand out..."

Shi Lian also said: "Your Majesty, we can let other vassal princes test it first, such as Prince Ning. No, or lord, you can summon the vassal princes who are in Jinling at the moment in your name to come over and discuss it..."

"No, Jinling itself is very sensitive now. If the prince wants to summon the vassal princes, others may not dare to come. Only King Xing can call him to prepare for ceremonial matters... The other things are known to the civil servants or His Majesty, but we are passive... "

Their worries disappeared and their minds became active.

Since it is a matter of mutual benefit, they must achieve their goals from this confrontation.

"Your Majesty...Prince Ning would like to see you..."

And just when they were discussing vigorously, another person brought news and whispered something in his ear.

"You guys need to discuss it first. I'll go see this guy and see what he's doing here..."

King Anhua went out quickly, but within a short while, he came back quickly, with a smile that showed he had a chance to win.

"No need to discuss! I have already decided to let Prince Ning, the culprit, test us first!"

"Take a look and see what kind of medicine is being sold in this little gourd, Your Majesty!"

"Zhu Xia, take the 300,000 taels of treasure banknotes that I have collected. If you don't have 10,000 taels, that guy can't take them away!"

"No! Fifteen thousand! He still has to thank us!"

"I didn't expect that this waste paper collected for less than 3,000 taels would be purchased at a huge price..."

"It's so easy to make money? Jinling is really better than my hometown, and there are more fools than my hometown?"
