Chapter 87 Zhu Youjian
"King Xin ascended the throne..."
Watching Li Ruolian run away with his horse, Li Xiu looked a little dazed. After a long time, his eyes turned and looked into the palace.
The shrill shouts had long dissipated, but the faint crying sounds drifted in the wind from time to time.
For people of this era, the news of the emperor's death is really too shocking!
The same is true for Li Xiu.
The emperor passed away and King Xin succeeded to the throne.
All of this happened too suddenly, and he was not prepared at all.
The north wind whistled, Li Xiu stood on the city tower, silently staring at the continuous palace in his sight. In his sight, he could clearly see the busy palace maids and eunuchs in the palace.
When the emperor passed away, there was an extremely rigorous and grand etiquette system. Although the emperor had just passed away, this etiquette process had already begun.
At this moment, the civil and military officials who entered the palace also walked out of the palace one after another. Compared with the solemnity when entering the palace, these civil and military officials who left the palace were no longer much easier.
The accident comes too suddenly, and everyone needs enough time to digest the accident, or in other words, it takes time to think about how to deal with it.
But no matter what, the sky above the head of Daming has changed, which is destined to be an irreversible fact.
Eunuchs, Donglin, civil servants, nobles, and even eunuchs in the inner palace...
One day the emperor and another day the minister!
Undercurrents are surging and chaos is revealed.
Just as Li Xiu looked at the endless palace in front of him and saw a team of eunuchs coming from the palace in his sight.
"Wang Cheng'en?"
Li Xiu was naturally familiar with the visitor. Although he had never really communicated, he had met several times. He was Zhu Youjian's personal eunuch, Wang Chengen, the famous eunuch in history.
"Li Qianhu!"
When Li Xiu heard Wang Chengen's call, he was stunned. At this point, Wang Chengen did not accompany Zhu Youjian, why did he look for him?
"Eunuch Wang!"
Walking down the city tower, Li Xiu welcomed him forward.
"Li Qianhu, Your Majesty has an order to order Qianhu to lead your troops to take over the defense of the Qianqing Palace!"
Hearing this, Li Xiu raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Chengen with a serious expression. He immediately realized in his heart. He bowed his order and summoned all the soldiers under his command to head towards Qianqing Palace in a mighty manner.
When Li Xiu led his troops to the Qianqing Palace, the emperor's bedroom had already been arranged into a mourning hall, with white sails and candles shining. The palace maids and eunuchs were shuttled into the hall, but there was a busy situation in the silence.
The war suddenly came, and more than a thousand soldiers wearing armored and holding sharp soldiers stood outside the hall. The silence and solemnity of the Qianqing Palace were also broken by the sudden armor.
"Nine thousand years old."
Seeing the war attack, an eunuch immediately reported to Wei Zhongxian.
When he saw the fierce soldiers outside the hall, Wei Zhongxian's pupils also shrank and said in a deep voice:
"Whose soldiers were transferred?"
"It's Li Xiu, Yongwei Camp!"
Hearing this name, Wei Zhongxian's eyes also instantly locked in Li Xiu, who was striding in big strides, his face instantly solemn, and a rather stiff voice sounded:
"Give me instructions and keep things in the palace as usual, so that everyone can keep a low profile and stop making any trouble!"
"Nine thousand years old, this Li Xiu..."
The eunuch on the side couldn't help but speak, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wei Zhongxian.
"Yongweiying camp is the personal army of the emperor. It is normal for him to move under the order of the emperor. You are sewing your mouth tightly..."
Having said that, the strong unwillingness in his tone was clear.
Looking at Li Xiu, who took over the precautions of the Ganqing Palace, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but feel a deep feeling of annoyance.
Yongwei Camp is under the Imperial Horse Prison, and the Imperial Horse Prison is under his control, and everything is completely invisible.
But now, without any news, Yongwei Camp appeared here.
How could he not know about Li Xiu’s friendship with Zhu Youjian?
With the order of the new emperor, Li Xiu's prestige in the Yongwei Camp...
Without any action, the Yongwei camp, which he had exhausted his efforts, seemed to be leaving his control and making wedding dresses for others!
This undoubtedly completely disrupted all his expectations.
The helpless new emperor and the new emperor who has mastered the elite army before he has completely ascended the throne, are completely different concepts!
A long sigh also sounded in the hall and could not disperse for a long time.
...
"Your Majesty, Li Qianhu is here!"
In front of the coffin in the hall, Wang Chengen quickly walked to Zhu Youjian's side and whispered.
Hearing this, Zhu Youjian's eyes were crying red, and a light flashed through him. He immediately turned around and saw that the soldiers and generals of the Yongwei camp standing straight outside the hall were finally relieved.
"Hurry up, let Brother Li come here!"
Zhu Youjian urged him repeatedly.
When the emperor's brother had an accident, he was monitored and taken care of by Wei Zhongxian.
Although he is now in charge of the throne of Emperor, the throne of Emperor cannot give him any sense of security.
After all, he had no power to rely on in this palace, and everything in this palace was under the control of Wei Zhongxian!
He has never seen the darkness in the palace!
Now he is alone in the palace, he cannot help but be afraid.
"My Majesty!"
Li Xiu strode into the hall and rituals to Zhu Youjian.
"Brother Li..."
When he saw Li Xiu, Zhu Youjian felt as if he had a backbone. He immediately stood up from the coffin and strode to meet him.
"Your Majesty is careful to speak. Now Your Majesty succeeds to the throne, and the ranks and ranks are in order..."
Before Li Xiu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhu Youjian: "What are you saying? Brother Li, who do you think of me? Where do we have so many rules..."
Looking at Zhu Youjian who was chattering in front of him, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel warm. He had known each other for so long, and no one could be ruthless!
"Your Majesty is the Emperor, it is inappropriate to call him like this..."
After Li Xiu insisted repeatedly, Zhu Youjian did not force it. He chatted casually for a few words and pointed to the point.
"Now that the emperor's brother has passed away, I succeed to the throne, what do you think I should do...and that Wei Zhongxian..."
Zhu Youjian had obviously not yet come back to his senses from the death of the emperor, and his face was full of worry. Faced with Li Xiu, a person who had always been able to listen to his confidants and was the only person he currently relied on, he told the worries in his heart.
Looking at Zhu Youjian's panic look, Li Xiu understood why Zhu Youjian could not wait to attack Wei Zhongxian in history.
There is only one reason, that is, Zhu Youjian is really insecure.
