Chapter 14 Supervision of the State
"Brothers!" Yuan Qi stepped forward and clasped his fists and said in the audience: "In the battle of Siming Mountain, many brothers were buried in the hands of Qing Gou. The Ye Dazhuan and the other Dazhuan suffered even more misfortune. He thought that the Qing Dynasty had entered the pass for decades, and the Tartars occupied the great country of China, insulted our brothers and sisters, and even destroyed our clothes and our culture. This hatred was irreconcilable!"
"I am irreconcilable! I am irreconcilable!" Everyone in the audience raised their hands and shouted.
After suppressing his hands, Yuan Qi said again: "Since the defeat of Siming Mountain, Yuan has brought his brothers to retreat here, but Yuan always wants to avenge the dead brothers. It is said that he is sleeping on firewood and tastes gall, and waiting patiently for the opportunity. Yuan believes that it will be a day! God will wait for us in the end. The day before yesterday, Yuan took his brothers down the mountain to do a big vote, killing more than twenty Qing dogs in one breath, which can be considered as a temporary collection of interest. Today, this incense hall is specially opened. First, it is the heroic spirit of the brothers, such as the deceased Ye Dajia, and secondly, there is a big thing to announce in front of the brothers!"
Zhu Yicheng's identity is only a few leaders at the moment, and the rest of the Laojun Sect don't know it, but everyone is not a fool. Seeing Zhu Yicheng dressed in a costume of a young master in the previous dynasty, he could stand on the high platform with the leader Yuan Qi, naturally guessing that his identity is not simple, let alone Yuan Qi said in public that there was something big to announce.
Holding his breath, everyone couldn't help but turn their eyes to Yuan Qi and Zhu Yicheng, waiting for Yuan Qi to continue talking.
"Brothers! Did you not expect that the day before yesterday we killed those dogs, not only did we collect interest on blood feuds, but also saved an amazing master. Do you guys know who this master is?"
After a pause, Yuan Qi turned his eyes to Zhu Yicheng and announced to everyone solemnly: "Did you see this young man? This is the great-minded person Yuan said, so everyone should listen! This is my great-grandson of the Yizong of the Ming Dynasty, the grandson of the third prince Zhu, the orthodox of the Ming Dynasty, and the fifth prince Zhu!"
As soon as the words were finished, everyone in the audience looked at each other and couldn't believe their ears. Prince Zhu San, the famous people had long stopped listening. Since the Qing Dynasty entered the pass for a hundred years, the uprising was under the banner of Prince Zhu San? Even the Simingshan Uprising they participated in before also swayed the banner of Prince Zhu San.
The third prince Zhu, the third prince, had long become a legend in the world, but there were very few people who had seen it with his own eyes, let alone these ordinary church members. Now, Yuan Qi actually said that the young man standing beside him with a white face and red lips, wearing a show costume and a purple gold crown was actually Prince Zhu Wu, the grandson of Prince Zhu San. The impact of this information was no less than that of the Chinese in the 21st century who suddenly heard the big news that US President Trump was choked to death on the spot when he ate a hamburger.
After a moment of tranquility, there were thunderous cheers. The members of the Laojun Sect were present, and the old men from the sect who had fought in the battles in Siming Mountain. In their eyes, Yuan Qi was their god. Since Yuan Qi was so confident that he told everyone that Zhu Yicheng's identity, then the fifth prince of Zhu must be true.
"The former Ming Dynasty survivor, the son of Yuan Wenze, the former Jinling brocade family, and the grass-roots man Yuan Qi paid homage to Prince Zhu Wu!" Yuan Qi was dressed in order and knelt solemnly at Zhu Yicheng with a great gift.
Zhu Yicheng had not yet come to his senses by the dazzling things at present. He was secretly thinking about Yuan Qi's specialty as a political commissar. The next moment, he saw him suddenly kneeling down to him. For a moment, he was stunned, and he didn't know how to deal with it. With a glance, he immediately saw Zhou Zhongliang on the opposite side keeping winking at him.
Suddenly, Zhu Yicheng came to his senses quickly and rushed forward and held Yuan Qi who had already knelt down and was about to kowtow with both hands. Before he could use his hands, Yuan Qi, who pretended to be kowtow, stopped his movements.
"Your Highness! I will let you fall into the people, but I am incompetent! You have suffered..." Yuan Qi's tears fell like rain, and his expression was even more sad as if I had just died.
"Damn it! Acting!"
Zhu Yicheng had never seen such a person before, and his perfect acting skills shocked him. Perhaps it was Yuan Qi's acting skills that drove the atmosphere on the scene, or perhaps it was Zhu Yicheng who was secretly reminded by Zhou Zhongliang at this time. Thinking of his miserable experience in the past few days, he couldn't help but choke up and two lines of tears fell down.
"Mr. Yuan, get up quickly."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"Listen to what Mr. Yuan said, is my father a hundred households in Jinling's brocade clothes?"
"Go back to Your Highness, that's right!"
"Mr. Yuan is really the loyal and kind-hearted descendant!"
"I dare not praise you like this. I have just done my duty. Unfortunately, the Qing court is powerful, the human power is small and the role is limited. Now I can see your highness safe. I am really happy. My Ming Dynasty has hope of restoring the country...!"
Yuan Qi and Zhu Yicheng performed their acting skills in front of everyone. They said one by one, and they were really a scene of a relationship between the king and the minister. Zhou Zhongliang, who was hiding beside him, finally let go of his heart, which had been hanging in his chest, and twisted his beard and said in his heart that Confucians could teach.
The King and Minister of the Emperor and Minister were almost the same. Yuan Qi began to tell Zhu Yicheng about their feats against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty over the years. Of course, it was more of the persistent efforts and difficulties under the threat of the Qing court. He listened to Yuan Qi's unnutritious words patiently, Zhu Yicheng had a sad look on his face, and his little head couldn't help but sigh bit by bit.
"Now that I have received your highness from returning, my Ming Dynasty will have a backbone. The country is in trouble. In a critical moment, I dare to ask your highness to correct his position first, and then lead my Ming people to expel the Tartars and restore my beautiful mountains and rivers!"
After saying that, Yuan Qi turned around and greeted Zhou Zhongliang, and Zhou Zhongliang immediately stepped forward to come aside.
"Master Zhou, according to your opinion, which of your nobles is now more appropriate?"
"Reply to Mr. Yuan." At this time, Zhou Zhongliang did not say the title of the master, but changed his words to Mr. Yuan: "Your Highness, your father, brother and others have fallen into the hands of the Qing court and have no idea of life and death. Your Highness escapes alone. This is a great blessing in disgrace. In my opinion, Your Highness can now temporarily take the name of a prisoner and correct his rule first, and wait for the rest to be spoken later. I wonder what Mr. Yuan thinks?"
"Responsible for the country?" Yuan Qi's eyes lit up. Zhou Zhongliang's idea was good. The third prince of Zhu and other Zhu family members were arrested by the government office. Although Zhu Yicheng's identity was obvious, from the perspective of generations, his grandfather and father and brother were still alive. It is indeed inappropriate to skip the elders directly at this time. You should know that Chinese people have always valued filial piety, but this position of ruling power balances both rights and filial piety. Moreover, there is a precedent. During the Southern Ming Dynasty, King Lu, King Gui and others all served as the ruling power to replace the exercise of the king's power.
"I would like to ask the supervisor to take office!"
After making up his mind, Yuan Qi shouted excitedly. Naturally, someone put the chair in the middle of the platform. Yuan Qi half-pulled and half-supported Zhu Yicheng and pressed him into the chair and forced him to sit down.
"No, no..." Zhu Yicheng really didn't want to sit on this chair. He knew it was a fire pit! Just pretend to be Prince Zhu Wu, what kind of ruling the country? He waved his hand to refuse.
"I, please ask the supervisor to take the throne!" Under Yuan Qi's leadership, everyone shouted for the second time.
"Yuan...I really can't..."
"Please take the throne!" Yuan Qi shouted for the third time, and a sharp flashed suddenly in his eyes, which made Zhu Yicheng's heart tremble.
"Okay..." Zhu Yicheng had no choice but to accept his fate. In everyone's opinion, the drama of three persuasion and three resignation was so perfect.
Seeing that Zhu Yicheng finally agreed to the position of governor, Yuan Qi became kind and immediately became kind. Then he looked at Zhu Yicheng with great expectations. At this time, Zhou Zhongliang also quickly reminded him: "Your Highness should reward the ministers who have made great contributions first..."
Zhu Yizheng immediately understood that he was forcing him to be appointed as an official! He was driven to the shelves and threw it away at this moment. After thinking about it, he said, "Yuan Aiqing is my loyal and kind-hearted man in the Ming Dynasty. Since the change of color in China, Yuan Aiqing has still been in love with his hometown to resist the Qing Dynasty. His ambition is commendable. He also made great contributions to the rescue. I specially named Yuan Aiqing the Duke of Loyalty and Brave, and the Grand Marshal of the Qing Dynasty, and the title of Grand Tutor!"
Zhu Yicheng couldn't solve the official position of the Qingming Dynasty. Anyway, I got some things I remembered in historical TV series, and there was no capital to be awarded to Yuan Qi now, so I directly granted Yuan Qi a so-called loyal and brave prince, anti-Qing marshal and the Grand Tutor. Not to mention it, as soon as he finished speaking, he was ecstatic when he saw Yuan Qi, and shouted long live the mountain and hurriedly thanked you for your kindness.
(The contract is delivered, everyone supports the new book, and there are some recommendation votes to be more powerful, thank you!)
