Chapter 211: Establish King Fu? Establish King Lu?

The Hanlin Academy's reviewer glanced at Monk Zhang coldly, without moving at all.

Monk Zhang's five fingers were already clenched into fists and asked coldly: "What's your name?"

The Hanlin Academy's reviewer said coldly: "I will not change my surname and will not change my name. The Hanlin Academy's reviewer Fang Yizhi!"

"Fang Yizhi?"

Monk Zhang's brows frowned in an instant. The name sounded a little familiar, as if it was heard from the general.

Thinking of this, Monk Zhang couldn't help looking back at Wang Pu. Wang Pu also heard Fang Yizhi's voice, so he quickly made a gesture to Monk Zhang not to do anything and take the person over.

Although Fang Yizhi was just a small, seventh-rank Hanlin Academy reviewer, he was the person Wang Pu wanted to name the name. Sun Chuanting once submitted a memorial to ask Emperor Chongzhen for someone. Unfortunately, Emperor Chongzhen did not allow the resignation, but he did not expect to meet him in the prison of a thief today.

Monk Zhang waved his head and said coldly: "Our boss asks you to come over."

Fang Yizhi groaned, turned around and ignored him.

Monk Zhang yelled, opened his big hand and grabbed Fang Yizhi's collar and picked him up like a chicken. Fang Yizhi was thin and had no diligent limbs. He was a typical scholar. How could he be a match for Monk Zhang? He was picked up in the air at once, and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not get rid of Monk Zhang's big hand.

The other twenty or so Beijing officials were already scared to death when they saw this. Who dares to stop it?

Monk Zhang took Fang Yizhi and strode to Wang Pu, and threw Fang Yizhi on the haystack as soon as he let go. When Fang Yizhi was about to curse, Wang Pu whispered: "Fang Jian, do you want to implicate the prince?"

"Who are you?" Fang Yizhi's face changed and he said in a cold voice, "How do you know that the prince is here?"

In fact, Fang Yizhi knew Wang Pu. Emperor Chongzhen invited officials from all over the capital twice for Wang Pu. Fang Yizhi attended. He had met Wang Pu, but Wang Pu deliberately made his hair messy and applied plaster on his face, so he didn't recognize him at once.

Wang Pu smiled faintly and asked without answering, "Look at who am I?"

Fang Yizhi recognized Wang Pu as soon as he looked carefully. His face changed instantly and he whispered: "General Wang?"

"Check Fang." Wang Pu nodded gently and asked, "Apart from you, is there anyone here who knows the prince?"

"Almost everyone recognizes it." Fang Yizhi said, "The prince often comes to Hanlin Academy to give lectures, and he sits all day long every time, so most people in the Hanlin Academy know the prince."

"Oh no." Wang Pu frowned, "Who else has recognized the prince except you just now?"

Fang Yizhi thought about it and shook his head, "This seems to be gone. Xiaguan just now just had some doubts and was not sure that he was the prince."

"You just stay here!" Wang Pu whispered, "Someone will come to pick us up tonight, and you will go with us when the time comes."

It was night, the Niu Jinxing residence.

A confidant aide hurried into the study and whispered: "Prime Minister, before his death, Zhou Kui said that he had seen the crown prince Zhu Cilang, Ding Wang Cijiang, and Yong Wang Zhu Cihuang. They were with Princess Changping and the Nanjing Admiral Wang Pu, who was right outside his father-in-law's mansion and said that Gao Qiqian was killed by Wang Pu."

"What!?" Niu Jinxing was shocked and said angrily, "Zhou Kui has been dead for five days, why has he only come to report it now?"

"Prime Minister." The aide called Qu, "I just learned that the guy in charge of torture drank a few more drinks at that time, and forgot about this the next day. Only today did I remember to tell Wei Zhi."

"Damn it!" Niu Jinxing said angrily, "It's been five days, five days! If the king knows about this and lets him know that Wang Pu and the prince slip away from our palms, you and I will die! Do you know what the prince Zhu Cilang means to Can Ming? It means the continuation of the country's destiny! As long as the prince does not die, Can Ming's old official's heart will not dissipate!"

"Yes." The staff member heard the cold sweat and whispered, "What the Prime Minister scolded is."

"Quick." Niu Jinxing said anxiously, "Send someone to investigate immediately. Once any clues are found, report them immediately!"

"yes."

The staff responded and left hurriedly.

Chaoyangmen Pass, the thief prison.

Huang Degong entered the cell with two jars of good wine in his arms. Before he could drink, the twenty or so thieves guarding the prison immediately surrounded him like a fishy cat. If you want to say that these thieves were also the Ming army who surrendered in the middle, their treatment was similar to Huang Degong and others. Every day, they were only given two bowls of rice soup that could make people look like they could. They wouldn't even think about wine and meat.

After meeting the two jars of wine in Huang Degong's arms, the greedy ones had long been seduced.

One said: "Lao Huang, where did this wine come from?"

Another said: "There is a share for those who see each other, and you cannot enjoy this wine alone."

Huang Degong also called the remaining thieves over, each poured a large bowl and said aloud: "Damn it, I can't eat a meal for the Ming Dynasty. I'm only worthy of drinking a meal for the Dashun Dynasty. I didn't say anything. If you want to eat good food and drink good food, you have to rely on your brothers to find a way. Today, my brother got two jars of good wine and shared it with me. I've come and done it all!"

The bandits applauded and fucked them all with their necks on their backs.

Huang Degong filled the thieves again, and then said, "Come on, let's do another bowl!"

The thieves did it again, Huang Degong poured it again, and after three bowls, more than twenty thieves fell to the ground. It turned out that the wine was given a sweating pill in advance, and all these thieves were fucked by the medicine!

Everyone in the prison, including Wang Pu and the twenty or so Beijing officials, all turned over and sat up.

Huang Degong took the key from a thief, opened the iron lock, and unbuttoned the iron chain as thick as his arm. The heavy prison door opened. Seeing this, the twenty or so officials immediately rushed forward and prepared to snatch the door. Huang Degong was shocked, quickly blocked the prison door and whispered: "What are you going to do?"

A Beijing official knelt down and kowtowed to Huang Degong and said, "Hero, let us go."

"Dream." Huang Degong said in a deep voice, "There is a camp of thieves outside, and thousands of people are guarding it. Even if you escape from the prison, how can you escape from the camp of thieves?"

"Hero, you have a way to take us out, right?" The Beijing official kowtowed and begged, "As long as you take me out, I will repay you. I will give you the money. Oh no, I will give you all the ancestral property of our Gong family! And my two concubines belong to you!"

The remaining twenty or so officials of the Beijing government knelt down and begged, "Hero, take us with you."

Huang Degong looked bitter, and turned to look at Wang Pu. A trace of undetectable cold light flashed through Wang Pu's eyes, and a wink at the monk Zhang beside him. Monk Zhang whistled, and more than twenty officials and soldiers in the prison rushed up like tigers and wolves, one of them was responsible for one. In just a blink of an eye, the twenty or more Beijing officials were all lying down!

Fang Yizhi's semen changed his mind: "General Wang, what are you doing? Even if you don't take them away, you don't have to kill anyone?"

"They can't die." Zhang Monk said coldly, "It's just that I will lie on for two hours."

Wang Pu ignored Fang Yizhi and whispered: "Hurry up, everyone hurry up and change into the thief's clothes."

The residence of the bull Venus.

As soon as dawn, the staff hurried into the study and reported to Niu Jinxing, who was sleepy, "Prime Minister, the Chaoyang Gate guards just came to report that a group of prisoners were arrested in the prison ran away!"

"Criminal?" Niu Jinxing said unhappily, "Several prisoners have to report their true colors even if they run away? What a big deal!"

"Prime Minister." The aide said anxiously, "According to the people below, the group of prisoners may be an official army from Nanjing, and they have some relationship with Jing Maocheng, the general in front of Li Yan's tent."

"Li Yan?" Niu Jinxing suddenly felt energetic when he heard this and said in a calm voice, "Is this group of prisoners related to Li Yan?"

"Yes." The staff member nodded, "The humble vocation has been verified. Among the prisoners, there was a man named Zhang Monk, who should be a general under Wang Pu, the admiral of the Nanjing Admiral of Cannon Ming. The general Jing Maocheng in front of Li Yan's tent seemed to be quite familiar with him. He had already agreed to release the person, but Li Yan's clan brother Li Hu came again, and he detained the person again."

"Wait." Niu Jinxing frowned, "When did this happen?"

The staff said: "It was the night our army entered Beijing."

"The night our army entered Beijing?" Niu Jinxing pondered, "Why did this monk Zhang appear at Chaoyang Gate that night? Could it be that Wang Pu sent him to Beijing? Why did Wang Pu send him to Beijing? Could it be to save Chongzhen, or to save... Hey, I remember that Wang Pu seemed to be the princess Changping's son-in-law, right?"

"That's right." said the aide, "Wang Pu had resisted the order for Chen Yuanyuan, and this matter is known to everyone in the world."

"Yes!" Niu Jinxing slapped his thigh and said decisively, "It seems that this monk Zhang came to save Princess Changping under the order of Wang Pu. Prince Zhu Cixuan and Yong Wang, and Tingbaba are probably also with this guy... Oh, wait, didn't you say that the old man Zhou Kuina saw that Wang Pu also came to Beijing?"

"Yes." The aide slapped his forehead and shouted, "Isn't it just for this? Wang Pu should be among the group of people. At that time, they were about to leave the city, but they were intercepted by Jing Maocheng, and then detained by Li Hu... Oh, Prime Minister, I have to send someone to chase him!"

"Wait." Niu Jinxing shook his head and said, "No need to chase after him."

"No need to chase after me?" the aide said in surprise, "Why is this?"

A gloomy murderous intent suddenly flashed across Niu Jinxing's face, and he sneered: "Because this matter has already involved Li Yan!"

The staff knew the holidays between Li Yan and Niu Jinxing. He recalled it and suddenly said, "Is the Prime Minister saying... take the opportunity to get rid of Li Yan?"

Niu Jinxing is not Li Yan. Li Yan regards Wang Pu as a major concern for the rebel army, but Niu Jinxing regards Li Yan as his major concern. For Niu Jinxing, Wang Pu is not a problem, but Li Yan directly threatens him to join the cabinet and become the minister in the future. In the bandit army, there are not many people who can be regarded as a threat by Niu Jinxing, and Li Yan is the first one.

In order to kill Li Yan, Niu Jinxing spared Wang Pu and Zhu Cixuan.

After Wang Pu and Zhu Cilang were released, Niu Jinxing did not think that Can Ming could cause any other storm. In his opinion, the Dashun Dynasty was already in conflict with the will of God. As long as Wu Sangui of Shanhaiguan was solved, he would send another general to lead the southern expedition, and he would be able to pacify the south of the Yangtze River with the momentum of the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves.

Beitongzhou, Caoyun Terminal.

Although the bandits have captured Tongzhou and left behind two thousand defenders, this group of defenders is implementing the "movement spirit" of the Dashun government's pursuit of dirty and assisting wages. Most of the manpower has been sent out to arrest local tyrants and evil gentry in all villages. Only dozens of people were left on the dock to guard them, and the guards were very relaxed.

The more than 200 government troops left by Wang Pu and ten large canal ships were stranded at the canal transport terminal because they are now the boatmen of the canal gang. The bandits did not make things difficult for these miserable "Caal gang" men, but the two thousand stones of grain on the canal gang were all conquered by the bandits.

The navy generals under Huang Degong, Zhang Yanlin and Li Ang, fought with the thieves on the dock every day, begging them to return the grain, saying that their bitter "Cao Gang" was only responsible for transporting grain. If the grain was not transported to the field, it would be intercepted, and their "Cao Gang" would have to pay double the grain. Isn't this forcing people to the dead?

When Wang Pu and his friends fled to Tongzhou Wharf by land, the thieves guarding the wharf were disturbed by Zhang Yanlin and Li Ang, the two guys, so they hid, and they were out of sight. Wang Pu and his friends got on the canal ship without any effort. When the ten canal ships left, the thieves guarding the wharf finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that these annoying things had finally left and the world was pure.

After getting on the canal boat, Wang Pu ordered the three hundred officials and soldiers to carry the boat south to survive. On the other hand, he released a carrier pigeon and sent a message to Nanjing. The prince had been rescued and would definitely return to Jiangnan within half a month!

Nanjing.

Fengyang Governor Ma Shiying has made a statement, claiming that the country cannot be without a monarch for a day, urging Nanjing officials to support the new monarch as soon as possible and allocate food and salary to the 200,000 troops stationed in Jiangbei as soon as possible! Ma Shiying's public statement greatly inspired the fighting spirit of the Donglin Party members, and Shi Kefa's concerns were also wiped out.

The day after Ma Shiying made his statement, Lu Daqi, Jiang Yueguang, Qian Qianyi, Zhang Pu, Zhou Biao, Chen Zhenhui, Wu Yingji and other Donglin Party members gathered in the War Department (Fushe is known as Xiao Donglin and is in line with the Donglin Party). He discussed with Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying to support the new king.

With Ma Shiying's support, supporting the new king is inevitable. Even if Gao Hongtu is inappropriate, Sun Chuanting's opposition will be useless. Unless Sun Chuanting dares to attack the world and launches military rebellion, Shi Kefa understands Sun Chuanting's character. Sun Chuanting is not a person who does not know the general. In the face of a crisis, he will not do such a thing as a relative who suffers from his enemies.

Shi Kefa discovered that Gao Hongtu and Sun Chuanting were not present, and looked around and said, "Why haven't Lord Gao and Lord Sun arrived?"

The left and right answered: "Sir, Bei Zhi has sent someone to invite him, but the servants of the two adults said that both Gao and Sun fell ill."

Shi Kefa said in surprise: "Are you all sick?"

"How could this be so coincidental?" Zhou Biao, who had just joined the Ministry of Rites, said coldly, "I will not be sick early or late, but the two fell ill at the same time today. Humph, Gao Hongtu and Sun Chuanting are clearly deliberately opposing the Commission! At this time of national crisis, these two people do not want to serve the court, but ignore the overall situation for personal gain. It is really shameful."

"Master Zhou." Shi Kefa frowned, "Please don't blame others behind their backs. I still know the character of Lord Gao and Lord Sun. They are definitely not like this."

Ma Shiying said: "Since that's the case, then we won't wait for Lord Gao and Lord Sun."

"Mr. Ma is right." Qian Qian, the new Minister of Rites, picked up the willow beard and said happily, "Mr. Gao, Lord Sun fell ill in labor and state affairs, so we should take on the heavy burden of state affairs."

"Okay." Shi Kefa nodded and said, "Now there are two vassal kings living in Nanjing, namely King Fu and King Lu..."

"Of course we must establish King Lu!" Before Shi Kefa finished speaking, Zhou Biao rushed to say, "The wise and wise king of Lu are well-known, but King Fu has few wise reputations. The lower officials think that establishing wise is the best."

As Zhou Biao finished speaking, Qian Qianyi, Zhang Pu and other Donglin Party members nodded one after another.

Is Lu Wang Zhu Changqing really smarter than Fu Wang Zhu Yousong? It’s hard to say!

But one thing is certain. If the crown prince Zhu Cilang, the king of Yong Zhu Cijiong, and the king of Ding Zhu Cixiao were both unfortunate, then the king of Fu Zhu Yousong should be the first heir to the throne of the Ming Dynasty!

Emperor Hongwu had clear regulations on the system of inheriting the throne: the father died and the son succeeded, and the brothers died and the younger brothers became brothers. There was a legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legiti

In terms of bloodline, King Fu Zhu Yousong was the grandson of Emperor Wanli, while King Lu Zhu Changqing was just the nephew of Emperor Wanli, and he was even older than Emperor Chongzhen. No matter how the throne of the Ming Dynasty was arranged, it was not as good as King Lu Zhu Changqing.

There was a reason why the Donglin Party members supported Lu Wang Zhu Changqing, because Lao Fu Wang Zhu Changxun had a grudge with the Donglin Party members.

Emperor Wanli originally planned to make Zhu Changxun the crown prince, so he could climb the dragon, but the Donglin Party led by Zuo Guangdou argued with the ancestral system of "having a legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate leg

If the little Fu King Zhu Yousong became emperor, the Donglin Party members were worried that he would overturn the case for the old Fu King, so they took out the old cases from the Wanli period to make things difficult for the Donglin Party members, so they proposed to establish the Lu King Zhu Changqing and weaved the "famous reputation" of Ziwuxu for the Lu King. His intentions were actually unspeakable.

When the Donglin Party members and Ma Shiying gathered at the Ministry of War to discuss supporting the new king, a carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew into the backyard loft of the Admiral's headquarters in Yanziji, and drilled into an exquisite pigeon cage. A pair of snow-white white wrists stretched over, gently untied the small bamboo tube from the pigeon's legs, unscrewed the lid, and took out a small roll of paper from it.

The master of Haobiao unfolded the paper scroll and hurriedly read it, shouting excitedly: "Yu'er, please get a cart and go to the Governor's Mansion immediately."

Of course, the owner of Haobiao was Liu Qingyan. After waiting for more than ten days, he finally waited for Wang Pu's news. The heart that Liu Qingyan had hanging in her throat finally fell to the ground.

Before Liu Qingyan could leave the admiral headquarters, Sun Chuanting came to him.

Before leaving, Wang Pu told Sun Chuanting that any news would be told to Liu Qingyan to convey it to him as soon as possible. In the past few days, Sun Chuanting came to the Admiral Headquarters almost every day, and he was almost crazy to wait for Wang Pu’s news!

Just now, someone secretly heard news that Ma Shiying and the Donglin Party members gathered at Shi Kefa’s War Department Office and were discussing the matter of supporting the new king. It seems that the Donglin Party members are determined to support the new king this time. If Wang Pu has not yet heard the news and asked the Donglin Party members and Ma Shiying to cook the pot of raw rice into cooked rice, it would be too late.

"How is it?" Seeing Liu Qingyan, Sun Chuanting asked anxiously, "Is there any news about the stinky brat?"

"There is news." Liu Qingyan said happily, "The prince consort just sent back the news that he had rescued His Highness the Princess, the prince and two little princes. He had passed Tongzhou and rushed back to Nanjing day and night, and he would be able to come back in about half a month!"

"It will take half a month?" Sun Chuanting frowned, "The little guy is really unsuccessful in doing things this time."

Liu Qingyan said: "I'm afraid something went wrong in the middle, it's delayed."

"No." Sun Chuanting said, "I must immediately pass the news to Shi Kefa and the others, so that they can know that the prince is still alive and is on his way to Nanjing!"

After saying that, Sun Chuanting turned around and was about to leave.
