Rights! Especially the highest rights, the competition must be full of various games. This is the condensation of human spirit, physical strength, and wisdom. The winner will gain everything, and the loser will lose everything.

This is a zero sum game!

The people leading this zero-sum game now are not Zhu Youjian and Wei Zhongxian in the capital, but Li Xiao hundreds of miles away from the capital. Li Xiao never dreamed that one day he would influence the transfer of power in the Ming Empire.

If you don't reap the full benefits at this time, God will look down on you.

Wang Chengen left that night, and Wu Sangui led a cavalry company to escort him.

Xu Xianchun was really drunk. When he woke up the next morning, his head was still so dizzy that he couldn't ride a horse. Li Xiao also used seductive language to describe how delicious the crab roe dumplings in Shanhaiguan were.

Under Li Xiao's temptation, Xu Xianchun tasted the crab roe steamed dumplings. This time the waiters were replaced by several young girls, with the charm of Yandi girls. Xu Xianchun narrowed his eyes into a line, held the hand of one and patted the other.

Breasts. Carefully asked about their development status, full image of a middle-aged greasy uncle.

While eating, Xu Xianchun realized that it was noon. So, breakfast was changed to lunch. Zu Dashou fulfilled his promise, put aside everything, and took his brother-in-law Wu Xiang to accompany Xu Xianchun to talk nonsense until Xu Xianchun slipped out and slipped under the table.

, this is considered a break up.

No matter how old an official is, he will vomit if he drinks too much. When he woke up at night, Xu Xianchun found that he was hungry.

Zu Dashou was a good man, and he came here again with his brother-in-law Wu Xiang. He spoke boldly and was kind. He couldn't see his colleagues starving, so he came here to treat him to a meal.

We are all warriors. We are destined to drink when we eat, and we are destined to drink too much when drinking. If we drink too much, we will naturally not be able to leave. When the sun rose again, Xu Xianchun finally realized that if he did not leave, he would die of drunkenness in Shanhaiguan.

After a quick meal of fried dough sticks and porridge, Xu Xianchun took his entourage on the road. At this time, he had already left one day and two nights behind Wang Chengen.

While Xu Xianchun was still running on the road, Wang Chengen had already arrived at Qianqing Palace. After driving all day and night, Wang Chengen's body was almost torn apart by the carriage. When he walked to Zhu Youjian, his body was shaking.

"What's going on?" Zhu Youjian was startled when he saw Wang Chengen with disheveled hair and a sallow complexion.

"If you wish, Li Xiao...! Li Xiao wants Shandong." Wang Chengen recounted Li Xiao's request.

"Pa!" Zhu Youjian slapped Long's bookcase, his face turned pale with anger.

Zhu Youjian didn't care about the eight hundred thousand taels of silver. It was just money. After he ascended the throne, not only the money in the treasury belonged to him, but also the money in the internal funds belonged to him. Li Xiao was appointed governor of Shandong, and Ao Canghai was appointed governor of Shandong. Sun Chengzong

If he is appointed as the chief envoy to Shandong, he is considering Shandong as his home. If this is arranged like this, this is still not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and this is still not the territory of the Zhu family.

"Long live! Li Xiao's wolfish ambition has been revealed. If he is not eliminated as soon as possible, I am afraid that he will be in trouble in the future. The old slave went to Shanhaiguan today and saw that Li Xiao's soldiers were strong and strong. He also took the old slave to watch the firearms test. With the old slave

From what I've seen, it only takes one cannonball to turn the Qianqing Palace into powder.

This thief is truly the number one thief in our Ming Dynasty. Long live, you must not accept his request!" Wang Chengen knelt on the ground and spoke while trembling all over.

"Insolent! How can I allow you, an old slave, to speak nonsense about important national affairs!" a female voice yelled, and Wang Chengen shuddered all over. He didn't even need to look up to know who was speaking. The wife of the Daxing Emperor, the Empress Zhang.

Empress Zhang's eyebrows were raised, and she stared fiercely at Wang Chengen who was kneeling on the ground.

"Old slave deserves to die, old slave deserves to die!" Men cannot have the same relationship with women, and people who are neither men nor women cannot have the same relationship with women. Especially when this woman is still a queen!

"Long live! The most urgent thing now is Wei Zhongxian. The eunuch party controls the government and brings disaster to the country. The eunuch party members openly built a shrine for Wei Zhongxian. Li Xiao, a martial artist, is just a scabies disease. The eunuch party is the serious problem of our Ming Dynasty.

If a Shandong offender offends Li Xiao at this time, the eunuchs lead Liao soldiers into the capital. I'm afraid Xiao Qiang will be in trouble. By then, long live the country and still have the country?"

Queen Zhang made an impassioned speech, and Zhu Youjian frowned.

Don't offend people easily, especially women. This sentence has always been a wise saying in the world. Empress Zhang sounded like she was thinking about Zhu Youjian, but in fact she hated Wei Zhongxian to the core of her bones.

Is it easy for me to compete with so many other girls for my husband's favor? I'm finally pregnant with a child. Why don't you find someone to do a painless abortion for me? I'll even be a ghost to settle this bad debt with you.

In the eyes of Empress Zhang, the Ming Dynasty is not even a piece of shit. Cutting Wei Zhongxian into pieces is what she wants to do. Of course, there is also Wei Zhongxian's so-called "wife" Hakka.

These two bastards, even if they were chopped into pieces with a hundred million knives, they would not be able to understand the hatred in Queen Zhang's heart.

Zhu Youjian's expression began to change, and he was pacing randomly in the side hall.

Empress Zhang is right. If you give Li Xiao Shandong, you can slowly rectify him and take it back in the future. But if Wei Zhongxian is allowed to seduce Li Xiao to the capital, anything can happen. Even if he is crippled,

It is not impossible for him, Wei Zhongxian, to appoint another prince as emperor.

There are many plans for the descendants of the old Zhu family, but there is only one throne. There are many people lining up to take over. It is not difficult for Wei Zhongxian to find an obedient one.

"I agree to his conditions. On the day I ascend the throne, I will issue an edict to promote Li Xiao to the governor of Shandong. Everyone else should be invited." Zhu Youjian gritted his teeth and clenched his knuckles on the tablecloth of Long's writing desk.

whitish.

"Long live, can you listen to this old slave?" Wang Tiqian saw Zhu Youjian like this. Li Xiao was recommended by him. Now the emperor is angry and doesn't care about settling the accounts in the autumn harvest. But when he thinks about it, he will be blamed for it.

What should I do? This matter must be remedied. Failure to do so will have very serious consequences.

"Say!" The two eunuchs Zhu Youjian relies on most now are Wang Chengen and Wang Tiqian.

"Long live! Since ancient times, ruling a country has required a balance. Long live now relies on the Jiangnan gentry. What these people want is to maintain the privileges of scholars. And then controlling the government will be more harmful than Li Xiao.

It was they who used the Donglin Party to support the late emperor to the throne. Donglin regarded himself as a hero by supporting him, so what were the consequences? Zhao Nanxing, Gu Xiancheng, Li Sancai and others corruptly and pervertedly controlled the government and manipulated the king like a puppet.

As a last resort, the late emperor cultivated Wei Zhongxian and others to fight against Donglin. Only then did Zhao Nanxing, Ye Xianggao and others step down, and Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou were imprisoned and died tragically.

Now the Jiangnan gentry has sent Qian Qianyi out, and he is still leading the remnants of Donglin. Who knows that after ascending the throne, Qian Qianyi will not follow the old path of Zhao Nanxing and Ye Xianggao?

Long live the promotion of Li Xiao now, it is to cultivate the power to deal with the Jiangnan gentry in the future. And Li Xiao's request also puts him in the position of being a thorn in the flesh of the Jiangnan gentry.

In the future, their two forces will definitely start a struggle. With Banzai in the middle, they can take advantage of the time when the two factions are fighting to recruit talents loyal to Banzai. When they fight to the point of losing both sides, they can be eradicated in one fell swoop, and their merits will be complete."

Wang Tiqian was worthy of being the head of the ceremonial department for several years. His words were very reasonable and well-founded, and Zhu Youjian and Empress Zhang nodded frequently.

"Long live, I think what Wang Tigan said is reasonable. Long live, you can use Li Xiao and Qian Qianyi to deal with Wei Zhongxian. In the future, when both Li Xiao and Qian Qianyi will suffer losses, long live, I can take full credit!" Queen Zhang immediately agreed with Wang Tigan's words. Now Speaking of which, killing Wei Zhongxian is the top priority.

"It makes sense. Qian Qianyi from Jiangnan and Li Xiao from Liaodong are not fuel-efficient lamps. I simply agreed to Li Xiao's request and let him fight Qian Qianyi. There is no need to wait until he ascends the throne, Wang Tigan, you can do it now To draft the decree and use the seal, send someone to Shanhaiguan first, and wait until the day I ascend the throne to announce it to the world."

Zhu Youjian counted the days. When he discovered the world, Li Xiao should also be receiving the imperial edict. The impatient Zhu Youjian did not even intend to let Li Xiao wait for a day or two.

"Then Chen Hailong and Shen Guangzuo from Shandong...!"

"Shen Guangzuo allowed Mr. Gao to return home, and Chen Hailong... failed to deal with the Japanese pirates. He asked the new governor Li Xiao to be dismissed from his post." Zhu Youjian said it without thinking.

Zhu Youjian's hatred for Chen Hailong actually originated from yesterday.

In order to curry favor with the new emperor, Chen Hailong specially selected seven beauties from Shandong. The results were so good that Chen Haihu in the capital actually asked Wei Zhongxian to donate them to Zhu Youjian.

Hearing that it was Wei Zhongxian who sent him to the palace, Zhu Youjian's eyelids began to twitch. He ordered Wang Tiqian to search him, and found the secret medicine in a secret place. According to these beauties, it was a drug to enhance happiness.

Damn it, Zhu Youjian knows best how my brother died. Now that the bones are still cold, you use this trick to deal with me? Several beauties were directly dragged out and imprisoned in the cold palace. The name Chen Hailong was equated with Wei Zhongxian.

Today Wang Tiqian mentioned Chen Hailong, and Zhu Youjian immediately asked Li Xiao to deal with him. If you drug me, I will let you die without a burial place.

"No!" After Wang Tiqian bowed and saluted, he immediately left and drafted the decree. As for adding the jade seal, it was really not a difficult task. Because Wang Tiqian was the eunuch in charge of the seal, and he was in charge of the official seal work. Now it is even more important for all Everything is handled in one go.

Although this is not in accordance with the procedures, communications were not developed in these years. Even the transmission of imperial edicts was all by post. There was a time difference here, which was enough for Zhu Youjian to complete the cabinet procedures.

As for the return of the power of the cabinet, there is no need to worry about it. Zhu Youjian has already started to form a cabinet, and the position of chief minister will naturally be reserved for Qian Qianyi. He has just come to power and has maintained a good alliance relationship. Qian Qianyi will not let this happen He fell out with the emperor about something.

After all, there is still the foreign enemy Wei Zhongxian.

Wang Chengen also withdrew. He was frightened by Queen Zhang's words. He had been cautious all his life, but he didn't expect to offend this woman over a small matter.

But don't worry, as long as Zhu Youjian ascends the throne, the position of queen will be replaced by Zhu Youjian's wife, Queen Zhou.
