The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 158
Su Guansheng saw a flash of surprise in Zhu Yu'ao's eyes, and continued: "It is because the Tianxing Mansion is strong without defense. When the officials left Jiangxi, there were still more than 2 troops in Jiangxi. At that time, Yang Tinglin and Yang Ge led [-] troops. People go to Shanguan, and if Fujing is in need, they can immediately go to Fujian to help. The Wanjibu and Huguang, Guangdong and Guangxi reinforcements also have more than [-] people."

He looked at Zhu Yu'ao, "Your Highness, do you think Tianxing Mansion can be defended?"

Zhu Yu'ao was overjoyed when he learned that Fujing was not a dead end, "I know that the Holy Spirit has already made a deal."

"But it's not the Holy Majesty's policy." Su Guansheng shook his head and said slowly, "It can be said that the Holy Majesty is no longer able to control the overall situation."

Hearing the words, Zhu Yu'ao immediately thought of the emperor's illness mentioned in the decree, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what disease the Holy Majesty is suffering from, but it is so severe that he cannot govern?"

"Your Majesty is not suffering from illness." Su Guansheng stepped forward and said, "This time the official returned to Beijing in a hurry, it is precisely to inform His Highness that the current situation is just like that of the Orthodox and Jingtai Dynasties!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yu'ao felt like a flash of lightning flashed through his heart.The biggest thing that happened in the Zhengtong and Jingtai dynasties was the change of civil castles.

In the 14th year of orthodoxy, the grand master of the Oala tribe of Mongolia also invaded the country first. The orthodox emperor Zhu Qizhen led an army of 20 troops to march in person.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Qizhen was tired by the eunuch Wang Zhen, defeated Tumubao, and was captured by the Mongols.After the news was sent back to Beijing, the courtiers headed by Yu Qian strongly pushed King Yi, who was in charge of the country at that time, to succeed him, that is, the Jingtai Dynasty.

Su Guansheng said that the current situation is like an orthodox or Jingtai time?Zhu Yu'ao's thoughts changed, the emperor's elder brother went to the imperial conquest, and left his younger brother as the supervisor of the country, just like the situation when the orthodox king stayed to supervise the country when he personally conquered Oala.

And the orthodox civil castle was captured, isn't it? !He stared at Su Guansheng with wide eyes, his lips trembling in shock, "Your Majesty... fell into the hands of captives?"

Su Guansheng did not speak, but only stared sideways at Zhu Yu'ao's expression.

Seeing him, Zhu Yu'ao didn't deny it, and even believed that the emperor's brother had been captured.At this moment, he didn't feel any sadness in his heart, and even felt a little bit hard to contain the sense of luck.

Before that, he was only a prince, and he slept every day when he was full, and had almost nothing to do.It wasn't until Longwu personally conquered and he served as the supervisor of the country for several months that he tasted the unstoppable taste of power.

During those days, major events in the world were decided by him, and he could change the fate of others with just one thought.No one dared to disobey him at will, and all the courtiers tried their best to please him.That, is a refreshing feeling of being able to control everything and be the only one in the world!This supreme right is like a drug, once you try it, you will never quit it again.

But he knew that this power was only in his custody temporarily, and the owner couldn't possibly be himself, so he never had any other thoughts.

And right now, if the emperor's elder brother is captured, wouldn't he be like Zhu Qizhen, the King of Yi in the orthodox dynasty, who can succeed the emperor from the position of supervisor and start the Jingtai dynasty of this era!
Thinking of this, he suddenly froze again, no, there is still one difference between now and the orthodox dynasty!He looked at Su Guansheng, and blurted out: "How is the prince's situation now?!"

Su Guansheng also heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words. What he feared most was that Tang Wang had no ambitions, so even if he had great abilities, this skill from the dragon would be water without a source.

But now that he hinted that Longwu was killed, Tang Wang's first reaction was not to try to rescue the emperor, but to ask about the situation of the prince.That means that what he cares most about is not his elder brother, but the great position behind his elder brother!
As long as Tang Wang wants to take this step, he will have his own world!Su Guansheng said: "The crown prince and the empress are rushing back to Tianxing Mansion, the car must have already left Yongfu County."

Is the prince all right?Zhu Yu'ao suddenly felt joyful, vented all his strength, turned his head and sat back on the chair, sighed and said: "The prince is about to return to the palace, and the country is safe."

Su Guansheng immediately cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness's words are wrong. Now Jiannu is domineering, rivers and rivers are in decline, and the country is in turmoil. It is time for great sages to come out and rule the world with one single effort."

He shook his heart and continued: "To tell you the truth, Your Highness, in fact, Tianjia died more than ten days ago! Chen Wang discussed with Huang Daozhou and others, saying that the Holy One was ill, and he would not be mourned in secret, and the empress would perform the duties of heaven. Empress Zeng is taking the crown prince back to Tianxing Mansion in a hurry, and when he enters the palace, he will tell the world that the crown prince will help the spirit, then everything will be settled and there will be no turning back."

"What?! Brother Huang, how could he..."

Without waiting for Zhu Yu'ao to say anything, Su Guansheng continued: "The crown prince is only a few months old, and if the prince is young, the country will be suspicious. Even in the era of peace, there will be countless disturbances, not to mention that when the country is in crisis, if there is no saint Your strength is in the hands of the country, and my Guozuo, who has been in the Ming Dynasty for more than 270 years, may end in the hands of this little prince..."

After Su Guansheng said this, cold sweat dripped down his back. What he did was a mind-boggling business.If Zhu Yu'ao said the word "rebellious minister" at this time, then everything about him would be over.

Zhu Yu'ao was still hesitating, when he saw a person walking out from behind the screen in the study room, it was Wang Yinghua, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and Su Guansheng lost all color in shock, "Your Highness, how can there be anyone else in this room?!"

Didn't this Wang Yinghua tell you to avoid him?Zhu Yu'ao was also extremely embarrassed. Just as he was about to explain, he saw Wang Yinghua walk up to him in a few steps, lifted his clothes and knelt down, and said solemnly: "I think what Su Gebu said is reasonable. Your Highness, do you remember Liu Bing and Gao Heng?" , Zhao Bing’s misfortune? For the sake of the common people in the world, and for the Daming Sheji, I ask Your Highness to follow the Datong, so that the Sheji can be safe!"

Wang Yinghua is Zhu Yu'ao's confidant, and his interests are deeply bound. Now that he knows that Tang Wang has a great opportunity to ascend to heaven, how can he not try his best to persuade him?If Zhu Yu'ao ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he would be able to ascend to heaven, and follow the power to the court.

The three people he mentioned were the young emperors from the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty. During their reign, they either perished the country or made the people miserable.

Su Guansheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and hurriedly knelt down side by side, "Your Highness, please make a decision early and inherit the great unification. Emperor Jing Xian has not yet completed the great cause of Zhongxing!"

Zhu Yu'ao was ecstatic in his heart, but on the surface he was still embarrassed, helped the two people in front of him, and said: "This statement is wrong, how can such a rebellious thing be done, you two must never mention it again."

Both Wang Yinghua and Su Guansheng are veterans in the officialdom, and they knew that as long as Zhu Yu'ao agreed, they agreed, but they repeatedly refused to accept it was also the meaning of the question.The two remonstrated again, but Zhu Yu'ao refused again and again, and sent them away again with a firm attitude of refusal.

After leaving the palace, Su Guansheng said urgently to Wang Yinghua: "Time is running out, and it will be a few days before the Queen returns to Tianxing Mansion. This matter of persuading her to enter should be kept simple to avoid long nights and dreams."

Wang Yinghua cupped his hands immediately, "Leave it to the lower officials to arrange, please rest assured that the Su Ge department."

The two discussed again and made a plan for a certain matter, and then they left separately.
