Chapter 160 My brother should be the ruler of Yao and Shun
On August 11, the seventh year of Tianqi, the Forbidden City. Just when Han Sheng was taking the exam at the Shuntian Prefecture Gongyuan, something that concerns the fate of the Ming Dynasty was happening in the Ganqing Palace.
"Zi Tong, come and sit next to me."
"Ahem..."
In the empty Ganqing Palace, Emperor Tianqi sent Wei Zhongxian, King Xin and others away, and barely sat up and called the queen to approach.
Hearing the emperor's cough, Empress Zhang suddenly felt nervous and hurried forward quickly. While shedding tears in her eyes, she advised the emperor:
"Your Majesty, if you have anything to do, let's talk about it tomorrow!"
"Your Majesty will summon the cabinet ministers tomorrow, and all the ministers of the Ministry of Justice should rest early today."
Shaking his head invisibly, Emperor Tianqi grabbed Queen Zhang's hand and said with difficulty:
"Today, the factory minister saw me and said that there was a maid in the palace who was pregnant and advised me to establish a posthumous child."
"What should the queen do if she thinks this matter should be handled?"
My heart suddenly became nervous. Empress Zhang knew that what Wei Zhongxian said to her yesterday had begun to be implemented. Seeing that Wei Zhongxian and Wang Xin and others were waiting outside the Qing Dynasty palace, Empress Zhang thought of Wei Zhongxian's threat yesterday and her son who had died when she was born. Even though she was still worried about the safety of her family, she still said firmly:
"Hasn't Your Majesty already passed the throne to the king? Why did you ask about this today?"
"Whether there is a pregnant maid, others may not know, but His Majesty himself doesn't know?"
He quietly approached Emperor Tianqi and said to him with his ears:
"I heard that there are eight pregnant palace maids in Madam Fengsheng's mansion!"
It accurately explained to Emperor Tianqi that the origin of the so-called "post-broken son" was.
"Ahem...ahhhh..."
After a sudden cough, Emperor Tianqi almost couldn't breathe for a while. After a long time, he grabbed the queen's hand, and said to the queen with some regret and apologies:
"It's me that I'm incompetent, so I can't be the queen mother!"
She ordered her to summon King Xin who was waiting outside the Ganqing Palace into this palace.
"My brother, come forward!"
Hearing King Xin, Emperor Tianqi looked at his mature and rosy face, and then thinking about his current situation, he unconsciously remembered that when his father was seriously ill, he asked his ministers to assist him in becoming the king of Yao and Shun. At this time, he looked at his younger brother and felt that this scene was so similar to that in the past, and his face suddenly turned rosy, as if he was looking back, and said to King Xin, Zhu Youjian:
"My brother should be the king of Yao and Shun!"
He fell to the ground with a kneeling sound, and King Xin said in panic:
"Your Majesty said this, I should die."
A moment of sadness and joy, tears flowed out.
After Emperor Tianqi said that, he had exhausted all his strength. Seeing King Xin’s feelings revealing, he suddenly remembered the scene when the two brothers were together. He patted King Xin’s hand and pulled Queen Zhang over and said:
"The central palace has been to me for seven years and has always been honest and advised, and has benefited a lot."
"In the future, I will be widowed when I am young and widowed, and I will do good deeds to the palace."
King Xin nodded with tears in his eyes, promising that he would treat the emperor's sister-in-law kindly and not let her suffer grievances.
In this way, the two of them said private words for a while. Emperor Tianqi had something to explain to King Xin. The gate of the Ganqing Palace was suddenly opened. Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tigan and others walked in and bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, you are about to be in a curfew, and it's time for King Xin to leave the palace."
"Summon all the ministers tomorrow, please rest early!"
It seemed that he was shocked by Wei Zhongxian's behavior. Emperor Tianqi coughed several times, and suddenly looked at Wei Zhongxian again and said to King Xin:
"Loyalty, virtuous, honest, loyal, and loyal. It can be considered for major issues and is appropriate to appoint."
He also said to Wei Zhongxian:
"As the chief minister of the factory, he should assist my brother with all his heart and make him the king of Yao and Shun."
Let Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tigan and others assist King Xin and maintain the Ming Dynasty court.
Although Wei Zhongxian had guessed the result of this incident after King Xin entered the palace earlier than him, when Emperor Tianqi said it himself, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but squint his eyes. He looked at Queen Zhang coldly. Wei Zhongxian then lowered his head and slowly bowed to King Xin under Emperor Tianqi's gaze:
"I have seen His Highness King Xin!"
"The old minister will never let go of his entrustedness, so that His Highness will become Yao and Shun!"
He said to Emperor Aoqi again:
"Since Your Majesty has decided to pass the throne to King Xin, should you enthrone King Xin as the crown prince, and your subordinates order someone to make arrangements?"
When King Xin heard this, his face suddenly became tighter, knowing that Wei Zhongxian wanted to delay time in the name of the Crown Prince. Fortunately, Emperor Tianqi was still a little sober, knowing that his body could not support the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Prince, and said weakly:
"I'm not long after I'm dead, so don't do this."
"Let them know when summoning ministers tomorrow!"
As he said that, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, waved his hand slightly, and asked King Xin and others to go out.
He did not withdraw, and King Xin remembered something that he did not say to the emperor. He looked at Wei Zhongxian standing beside him, gritted his teeth, and said to Emperor Tianqi:
"Your Majesty, I heard that there is a black dragon in the capital for chaos. Please give the Dragon-Slaying Sword to shock this demon dragon!"
Shocked by the words of King Xin, Emperor Tianqi suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Wei Zhongxian and said:
"Is the Black Dragon that caused trouble five years ago now coming out again?"
"Changchen, why didn't I tell me about this? I have to wait for my brother to report it!"
After changing color slightly, Wei Zhongxian only felt that it was not going well today. First, during the day, Zhenren Ling Yue chose to surrender to the Taoist sect, but now he encountered accidents one after another. Thinking of the black dragon, Wei Zhongxian frowned and replied to the emperor:
"Back to Your Majesty, the Black Dragon that caused trouble five years ago has been sealed in the Black Dragon Pond."
"I have checked it a few days ago, and the seal is still there!"
He nodded slightly, and Emperor Aoki's face seemed to be a little pale again. He barely dragged his sick body and said:
"I am extremely relieved to do what the factory minister did."
"My brother, the news in the capital is complicated. You must distinguish carefully and don't trust others!"
Let King Xin Zhu You retreat, and did not mention the Dragon Sword.
However, the emperor was relieved of Wei Zhongxian, but Wang Xin was extremely worried. Because the news he received was that Wei Zhongxian might have colluded with Heilong, he insisted:
"Your Majesty, there may not be no cause for nothing."
"The black dragon is related to the dragon vein. It is better to be cautious than to have a trace of scatteredness."
As he said that, he looked directly at Emperor Aoki and said:
"In May of the previous year, Your Majesty fell into the water in the West Garden, and since then he has developed a root cause."
"Last May, Wang Gongchang exploded, and His Majesty was forced to issue an edict to punish himself and take the blame on himself."
"In May this year, Your Majesty was unhappy again and he has never been ill since then."
"The death of Emperor Taizu is in May. His Majesty has happened in May in recent years. It is impossible for such a coincidence to be without a reason-"
"I ask Your Majesty to give the Dragon-Slaying Sword to find out the truth!"
As if touched by the words of King Xin, Emperor Tianqi just wanted to give the Dragon-Slaying Sword, and suddenly his face turned pale and he said with a headache:
"I'm tired today, I'll discuss this matter tomorrow!"
Let the queen, King Xin, Wei Zhongxian and others retreat.
Seeing this, although King Xin was still unwilling to accept the order, he had to take the order and withdraw. Wei Zhongxian frowned and doubts arose in his heart:
"Is there really a reason why your Majesty has had accidents in May in recent years?"
"That black dragon is in the Black Dragon Pond, has it been out of trouble again?"
