Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 384 Emperor Longwu moved to Guangzhou City
Su Guansheng chose to support Gui Fan as the supervisor of the country for the sake of the overall situation when the news of Longwu was unknown. After the war, King Gui returned to Zhaoqing and asked Guangzhou to honor him as Zhengshuo, which made Su Guansheng feel disgusted.

Su Guansheng was not born on the right course of the imperial examination, and he didn't have the honor of a Jinshi. He often couldn't get along well with those veteran officials who were on the right course of the imperial examination. The so-called righteous path and bloodlines are also very disgusting.

Among the many vassal kings in Nanming, Emperor Longwu is undoubtedly the most similar to the Lord of Zhongxing, but he has a fatal flaw, that is, his blood is too sparse. In more intuitive terms, he can go back eight generations. His direct ancestors It is Zhu Yuanzhang's No.20 third son, Zhu Gong.

In terms of blood, Longwu was not much better than Liu Bei, who claimed to be the king of Zhongshan County. There were more than [-] vassals like Longwu in Chongzhen. In fact, there is no legitimacy to inherit the throne at all, which is also an important cause of the dispute between Tang and Lu.

During the Wanli period, Shenzong wanted to appoint the old Fu Wang as the prince. He fought with the civil service system for more than ten years, and finally compromised. It can be seen that the issue of feudal order has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the concept is difficult to change.

After Longwu ascended the throne, he knew that his own blood could not convince the public, so he always tried to stabilize the Guifan. Before Empress Zeng gave birth to the crown prince, Longwu said to Guifan many times, "This Yongming King (Zhu Youlang) Yongming, the grandson of Shenzong, belongs to the orthodoxy. I have no sons, and the future belongs to Zhu Yongming."

Naturally, there is an element of playing power, but it also shows that Longwu has deep fears for Guifan, the cousin of Emperor Chongzhen and the best heir to the Ming Dynasty.

As a scholar, Wang Yan naturally knew that King Gui supervised the country, and his influence on the court was much greater than that of King Lu.

Just imagine, King Lu, who belongs to Shufan like Emperor Longwu, has so many people supporting him, how much trouble can King Gui, who is the descendant of Shenzong, stir up.

This is like a big family, the master suddenly died suddenly, and the family property was taken by a distant young master who was eight generations away. Now that the real direct heir of the family wants to come back to fight for the family property, who will the people below support?

Su Guansheng obviously thought too simply about King Gui's power. Seeing Wang Yan's angry look, he felt a little puzzled. With the force Wang Yan brought back now, it was like calming down the chaos of King Jingjiang. King Gui, isn't it enough to completely solve this hidden danger for the court?
Suddenly Su Guansheng's expression changed, and he asked coldly, "Shiheng? King Gui also issued an edict to you, did he promise something?"

Hearing this, Wang Yan couldn't help being silent for a while. King Gui used the position of county king to win him over. There must be no way to hide it. He sighed softly, "Gui Fan promised me the title of Hengyang County King, and let me support Gui Fan as emperor!"

Su Guansheng's expression changed drastically, he stared at Wang Yan and said, "What does Shi Heng mean?"

"What does Ge Lao think I can mean?" Wang Yan was annoyed for a while, but then he said helplessly: "I have already killed King Gui's envoy."

Su Guansheng was taken aback for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction, and said in a bitter voice, "Good kill!"

Guifan Xu's position as the county king is equivalent to setting Wang Yan on the fire. Emperor Longwu racked his brains in order not to make Wang Yan king, and even came up with the idea of ​​letting Wang Yan adopt a son to Wang Wei's family in the future to inherit The title of Lord Protector came to compensate Wang Yan.

Now Guifan wants to make Wang Yan the county king, how does Emperor Longwu feel, and Wang Yan can't tell Longwu himself about this kind of thing, otherwise it will inevitably make Longwu feel that Wang Yan is hinting at him, so he He could only kill King Gui's envoy first, and show his attitude to his subordinates and courtiers first.

Wang Yan is now in the court of Longwu, like Optimus Prime, King Gui will definitely not give up wooing, there are many things that cannot be hidden, Wang Yan can't talk to Longwu by himself, but the result conveyed through Su Guansheng is different.

Wang Yan himself said that it would make Long Wu feel that he was forcing the court to crown him king, but Wang Yan didn't mention it, and if Long Wu got the news from Su Guansheng that he had killed the Gui envoy, he would only feel that Wang Yan was loyal.

"Okay, about the matter of King Gui, I will discuss it with the elder after entering the city." Wang Yan saw him chatting with Su Guansheng for a while, and then said: "At present, the elder will lead all the officials to meet your majesty~"

Wang Yan was able to kill the envoy of King Gui, which made Su Guansheng very satisfied. Hearing this, he and Wang Yan led all the officials to meet the emperor in front of the chariot.

Everyone greeted with great gifts and shouted long live.

Inside the bright yellow carriage, Emperor Longwu let everyone flatten out tiredly. All the ministers thanked Li and stood up, but King Tang couldn't kneel down, and everyone couldn't help discussing in low voices.

Emperor Longwu raised the curtain of the car, and when he saw this scene, he frowned slightly, "Why is this, brother?"

Tang Wang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my brother has ascended the position of supervisor without authorization, and please punish me!"

Jian Guo is only one step away from the throne of the emperor. Ascending the position of Jian Guo is tantamount to coveting the throne. Tang Wang is in Guangzhou to supervise the country. It is impossible for Longwu and the court to pretend that such a major event has never happened.

"I have read the report of Elder Su Ge on this matter. The emperor's younger brother was forced by the current situation. It was a last resort. It was not a deliberate fight for the throne. I understand in my heart that the emperor's younger brother does not need to blame himself!" Long Wu said in a gentle voice: " Now that I am in Guangxi, the emperor has abdicated and returned to the vassal, and I will abide by the way of a minister, not only will I not punish, but I will reward him heavily."

A stone fell from Tang Wang's heart, and he said: "My brother thanked my emperor~"

"Okay, let's drive into the city!" Long Wu said to Tang Wang again: "My brother, get in the car~"

Since ancient times, it has been said that the royal family is ruthless, and Tang Wang is also worried about this, so he feels a little anxious, but Long Wu's attitude makes him calm down.

Although Long Wu had been imprisoned in the Fengyang Clan Prison for nearly ten years, he had a very good relationship with his brothers. This was because of what happened to them when they were young.

Longwu, Tang Wang, and their younger brother Zhu Yu'e, because their grandfather, the old Tang Wang Zhu Shuoyu, liked concubines, and always cherished the son born to the concubine in his heart, and hated Zhu Qiqi, the father of Longwu. Tang feudal title, so Longwu and his son were imprisoned in the Chengfeng Department, trying to starve them to death.

At that time, Long Wu was only 12 years old, Tang Wang was only seven or eight years old, and Zhu Yu'e was even younger. Fortunately, a small official Zhang Shutang secretly helped to send some brown rice, so they survived.

The brothers lived together in the prison cell for 16 years, living a poorer life than ordinary people, but it also made the feelings of the brothers more sincere and intimate than ordinary clan children.

At this time the army was moving forward, Long Wu and Tang Wangzuo were in the car, and they began to ask: "Yukai, I am very happy to be able to defend Guangzhou this time, I wonder what reward you want."

Hearing Longwu's words, the king of Tang couldn't help thinking of the past, the tight string in his heart relaxed, and he replied sincerely: "Your Majesty, I only hope that your majesty can revive the Han Dynasty and restore the ancestors' foundation. What kind of reward, the current financial difficulties of the imperial court, as the imperial family, I am very pleased to be able to do my best for the imperial court, how dare I waste the imperial court's money again."

Long Wu was slightly silent when he heard the words, and sighed after a while: "It's really my brother~ It seems that this time you have learned a lot from the supervision of the country~"

The king of Tang suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his back was covered with cold sweat. He wept bitterly in the carriage and said: "Your Majesty, I have no other intentions. I just want to contribute to the court and share the worries of your majesty. When the Qing soldiers entered the country, your majesty raised troops to serve the king. I have never forgotten what I did, and my heart is like your Majesty's heart to serve the country."

Long Wu's face softened slightly, "Then you should also know that because of this, I was demoted as a commoner of the Tang Dynasty and imprisoned in Fengyang Prison for nearly ten years~"
