"I have to hurry up and guard your Majesty!" Zhu Yong said, and walked away.
"Brother, stay." Wang Xian stretched out his hand to grab him and said decisively: "You should control a palace gate now, and don't worry about His Majesty's side!"
"This..." Zhu Yong's heart skipped a beat, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his face. He was a very humane and dignified prince, and he had been in charge of the palace for many years. If he was ruthless, he would not be able to seize control of a certain palace gate.
He has the ability. He just doesn’t have the will to seize the palace gate without permission, but it is a serious crime to commit treason and seize the nine clans!
"Brother, don't worry." Wang Xian naturally knew Zhu Yong's worries, and he said in a deep voice: "Things have their own authority. Now that His Majesty is unconscious, you are an important general in the country, and you should be the mainstay to scare Xiao Xiao. When Your Majesty wakes up, you just have to
You need to apologize immediately, and instead of blaming you, His Majesty will praise you very much!" After a pause, he reminded again: "Brother, don't forget about the last year's wedding!"
Zhu Yong was shocked when he heard this. Yes, this incident is very similar to a year ago. At that time, His Majesty was ambushed and his life and death were uncertain. King Zhao made a sudden move and was extremely critical. It was Xue Lu, the Marquis of Yangwu, and Liu Sheng, the Marquis of Anyuan, who made a prompt decision.
In the absence of an order, he mobilized his own troops to control the situation and save the emperor from danger. At that time, just like now, he was too worried about the consequences and actually acted like a coward. If Wang Xian hadn't protected him, he would have done it long ago.
Losing the holy family and becoming abandoned by me.
I never expected that a year later, the same situation would appear again, and I would still have to make that difficult decision.
It was already winter, and the wind was biting in Beijing, the sky was overcast with low clouds, and it was bitingly cold. But Zhu Yong was covered in white sweat, and big beads of sweat were dripping down his face. His throat kept trembling, and his eyes
His eyes flickered around for a long time, and finally focused on Wang Xian. He saw this guy who was more than ten years younger than himself, but his face was only determined, without a trace of timidity. He couldn't help laughing at himself, and finally nodded: "Brother, I
Listen to you."
Wang Xian shook hands with him vigorously and said in a deep voice: "Believe me, that's right." Zhu Yong nodded again. This time, he needed to be too firm and calm.
The two of them parted ways at the corner gate. Zhu Yong walked out for a while and shouted to the men who came up to him: "Go to Xihua Gate!"
Wang Xianze quickly returned to the front of Fengtian Palace and walked to the crown prince and grandson who was still kneeling there. Regardless of the strange looks in the eyes of the eunuchs and guards, he whispered to Zhu Zhanji: "Your Highness, you must enter the palace immediately!"
Zhu Zhanji looked up at Wang Xian, their eyes intertwined, and His Highness Taisun instantly read the indescribable but fatal information from his eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Zhanji stood up with his legs propped up.
He stood up, moved his stinging knees, and walked towards the palace door with a slight stagger.
By the time he reached the door of the side hall, his steps had returned to normal, and he stepped steadily over the high threshold.
In the side hall, King Zhao was holding his arms and looking at his unconscious father with cold eyes. As Wang Xian expected, he realized that this was a God-given opportunity for him to usurp power and he had already made secret preparations. But this matter was too serious.
Once Da DaDa takes this step, the world will be turned upside down, the sun and the moon will turn upside down, and there will be no way back. So he has to think clearly about how to take every step in the future... The nine sons of Longsheng are all different.
The second brother must make a decisive decision whenever big things happen, and act first before talking. He cannot be as decisive as the second brother. He always has to think of a way out, and even if it doesn't work, he has to think of ways to deal with various situations before he can make a decision.
This is just a matter of character, and there is nothing anyone can do about it.
Just when King Zhao finally made up his mind, his eyes became more serious and turned into a sharp blade, stabbing his father directly, the young eunuch's low voice sounded from behind him: "Your Highness, Your Highness."
King Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around suddenly. He saw Zhu Zhanji standing behind him with a dark face and an evil look. He didn't know whether it was due to a guilty conscience or something else, but King Zhao's heart was beating fast. Fortunately, his face was as white as a crown jade.
, but he doesn’t look pale.
"What are you doing in here?!" King Zhao looked a little angry and shouted at his grandson:
Zhu Zhanji glanced at him coldly, and then moved his eyes to the emperor. He looked at his grandfather lying there with a painful expression. There was a hint of bright color at the corner of his mouth, which extended to the deep decree lines. Taisun
Then he took out his handkerchief and knelt in front of the emperor's bed, trying to wipe away the trace of shameful saliva from him.
However, King Zhao stretched out his hand to block his grandson and said coldly: "What do you want to do?"
"Get out of the way!" Zhu Zhanji was much stronger than King Zhao, and he used some Wudang Tai Chi power. With one push, he actually pushed King Zhao to stagger.
King Zhao took two steps back and bumped into a gilt lamp stand. The lamp stand fell and the glazed lampshade shattered to the ground. King Zhao finally stopped and said angrily: "Are you going to rebel?!"
Zhu Zhanji carefully wiped the saliva from Zhu Di's lips, and then said in a cold voice without looking back: "Your Highness, King Zhao, be careful what you say."
King Zhao was stunned for a moment, knowing that the other party was reminding him of his identity, but how could he show weakness at this time? He said bitterly: "Aren't you outside asking for forgiveness? What are you doing here?"
"I apologize because my father has offended my grandfather, and a son can't help but be afraid." Zhu Zhanji said slowly: "I came in because I am the grandson of the Ming Dynasty. The king is ill now, and I must stay by him to prevent
The rebellious ministers and traitors have delusional thoughts."
Zhu Zhanji almost pointed his nose and called King Zhao a traitor and traitor. King Zhao's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I see you and your son wishing that His Majesty would never wake up again!"
He didn't know whether King Zhao's voice was too loud or he was uncomfortable. Zhu Di frowned, a look of pain appeared on his face. Zhu Zhanji turned back coldly, glanced at King Zhao and said: "Your Majesty, please be quiet.
King Zhao goes out."
"You!" King Zhao gritted his teeth and glared at his grandson with blazing eyes. He knew that it was impossible for him to do the 'sound of candle shadow and axe', but he had to stay here, so he had no choice but to stand angrily.
On the side, he watched coldly as Zhu Zhanji knelt beside the emperor's bed, playing the role of a filial son and virtuous grandson with great devotion, which really made His Royal Highness King Zhao feel sick...
The words were divided into two parts, but it was said that Wang Xian persuaded the emperor's grandson to enter the palace, nodded to the prince... the prince also gave him an apologetic expression... Wang Xian left quickly, and at the gate of Fengtian, he saw besides the original guards in brocade clothes,
There are also a few more Dongchang fans with round hats and soap boots.
Wang Xian waved to them, and several people came over quickly, knelt down on one knee to greet Governor Wang, and respectfully asked if they could help him. Wang Xian looked at them with a smile and said, "Where is your factory boss?" Without waiting for an answer, Wang Xian asked.
Then he said: "Invite him here, and I'll treat him to a drink."
Although the gangsters knew that Dongchang and Jinyiwei would not deal with them, who dared to provoke the notorious Zhongyong Bo? That was the fierce god who stepped on Ji Gang's body and came to power. They hurriedly responded and went to find Zhao Ying.
Although Dongchang's yamen is outside the palace, there is a formal duty room at Donghua Gate inside the palace. This is also a clear proof that Dongchang has a higher status than Jinyiwei and is closer to the emperor.
At this moment, in the heavily guarded duty room, two large fire pits burning tribute charcoal reflected a warm red color on the walls. But sitting on the huanghuali wood armchair next to the north wall, the old eunuch Zhao Ying was in a different mood.
It's neither red nor warm, but as cold and cold as outside.
On both sides of the armchair stood a group of eunuchs from the East Factory who were in charge of punishment and were in charge. They were all silent and no one said a word.
Ever since the little eunuch brought the message from King Zhao and Zhao Ying gave a few simple orders, everyone has been sitting and standing like this.
"Old ancestor," Zhao Ying's godson, Ma De, the eunuch in charge of the East Factory, finally couldn't help but break the silence and said: "Let's just go all out. This palace is our world. Whoever we want to die will be killed."
If you want to die, whoever you want to win can win!"
"Yes, ancestors, haven't you always envied the eunuchs of the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty?" Someone took the lead, and everyone was ready to make a move. They all blushed and said: "This is done, we don't need to envy them anymore!"
"We can't compare to those seniors," but there were also many pessimistic guys who poured cold water on them: "If nothing else, most of us in the East Factory are from Jinyiwei. Will these people be with us? Old
Most of the Imperial Guards controlled by our ancestors are former members of Duke Cheng and others. Will these people be of the same mind as us? It’s hard to say!”
"Isn't that simple?!" Ma De rolled up his sleeves and said with murderous intent: "Wang Xian and Zhu Yong are both in the palace, why don't we just kill them!"
"It can't be that simple..." the opposition sneered: "You think they are stupid, stretching their necks and waiting for you to chop them?!"
Zhao Ying squinted his eyes and listened calmly to the quarrel among his men. At this moment, the thick door curtain suddenly opened, and a gust of cold wind blew in. The cold made Ma De shiver, and he was about to curse Fanzi who came in. Then
Fanzi was already kneeling on the ground and said crisply: "Mr. Factory, Uncle Zhongyong wants to treat you to a drink."
Ma De's words were swallowed hard immediately, and everyone fell silent and looked at their ancestors.
"What is he doing?" Zhao Ying's eyes wandered across Na Fanzi's face. "The palace gates are closed, where can we go to have a drink?"
"Haha, how about it?!" Madden was immediately excited, glaring at the person who opposed him and said, "Someone just wants to wash their necks and wait to be slaughtered."
"Ancestor, be careful of fraud!" Those who objected still objected, but they obviously lacked confidence. Because Fengtianmen was controlled by people from Dongchang, and Wang Xian was inviting guests there, he was clearly falling into a trap.
"What else can he do?" Ma De's group clearly had the upper hand. Zhao Ying also stood up and ordered: "Go to the wine and vinegar noodle shop to get a jar of 20-year-old Maotai."
The eunuch smiled and said: "We can't let anyone buy a bar on our territory."
"It's an order!" Ma De responded excitedly and quickly went out to take care of things.
Then a eunuch put a black mink cloak on Zhao Ying, a white fox fur scarf, and a warm hat. When Zhao Ying walked out of the duty room in the east factory, Ma De was already waiting there with a wine jar.
Zhao Ying looked back at the plaque that read 'Famous for Eternity' hanging at the door of the check-in room, and said with a smile: "Go and meet him."
