Chapter 166 One Emperor and Two Kings
The grand welcome ceremony quickly changed. The princes went through a series of procedures symbolically and left one after another with excuses. Li Chengdong, who was full of honor, was very upset: It was obviously the victory of your old Zhu family. Like the plague.
After the anticlimactic ceremony, Fang Xiaobai and Ailarili didn't stay for a moment when they returned to the prime minister's mansion. They drew up a petition from the officials and asked each official to sign it, and Fang Xiaobai sent it to the palace as a representative. It quickly caused an uproar, not for anything else, but because of the content of the petition: Baiguan asked Princess Zhuyu of Changping to ascend the throne and become the new emperor of Ming Dynasty!
This is the first time in the history of the Ming Dynasty that hundreds of officials collectively petitioned for the establishment of a royal princess as emperor. As for why, anyway, Fang Xiaobai, a living Cao Cao, can do whatever he wants. So far, Xiaobai above the general direction has never missed it .
After the case of Qian Qianyi, the Donglin party members were purged again, and the remaining rotten Confucians were arrested and killed. The Ming Dynasty Hall was completely occupied by the Eagle Party represented by Fang Xiaobai, and the prime minister's mansion became a Yiyan Hall.
In addition to preventing Tzeentch from doing anything else, Fang Xiaobai ordered the frontline Juggernaut of Hoth to withdraw half of the number, and put them under the command of Dodan, the lost man, to be responsible for the safety of the Imperial City as the Imperial Guards of the Ming Dynasty. Not disgusted.
Ever since, with the acquiescence of the three princes, Princess Zhu Yu of Changping returned to the imperial city to rest for a day after offering her captives in the Taimiao, and proclaimed herself emperor the next day surrounded by Fang Xiaobai and others.
As the second female emperor in Chinese history, her enthronement ceremony was not as grand as imagined, and no one came to congratulate her except the officials from the prime minister's residence and a few members of the royal family.
Princess Changping, oh no, now it should be called Tianyou Empress Zhu Yuxi. After succeeding to the throne, the royal family members are required to keep everything simple, prohibit extravagance and waste, tighten their belts, save money on food and clothing, and invest all the saved funds in the expansion of the army First, vigorously develop armaments and actively prepare for war.
Of course, Zhu Yusong is willing to fulfill the promise Zhu Yousong made. Although BJ City was lost and reduced to ruins, Fang Xiaobai managed to restore BJ City for a period of time, which can be regarded as meeting Zhu Yousong's request.
Maybe it was to repay Fang Xiaobai for his support, or maybe he wanted to win him over. After the enthronement ceremony, Auntie Zhu called Fang Xiaobai, Ai Laruili, Li Chengdong and others to the imperial study room for a secret talk.
All the eunuchs and maids were sent out by Zhu Yu'ao. The imperial study room only had a round table and a few stools, and all tea and cakes were available. Zhu Yu'ao warmly greeted Fang Xiaobai and the others to sit down, without any hint of the queen's style.
After several people were seated in order of priority, Empress Zhu Yu asked solemnly: "Fang Aiqing, although the emperor's uncle died tragically, I will keep the promise he made. Aiqing has completed the task of recovering the capital, so I decided to break the rules." Feng Aiqing is the hereditary prince of Ming Dynasty, where is Aiqing's ancestral home?"
Happiness came too suddenly, and Fang Xiaobai knew in his heart what Zhu Yuxi wanted to do by leaving them alone. , can be called the pillar of the Southern Ming Dynasty, and the result?Until the demise of Nanming, Zhu Youlang also gave a title of county king, which was very stingy.
But Auntie Zhu was different, she actually wanted to give him the title of prince with a different surname all at once, which was not insincere, Fang Xiaobai was a little flattered by the trouble.
Calm down and think carefully, Fang Xiaobai immediately felt relieved: "She is also a time traveler, her soul is possessed by Princess Changping, and she doesn't have the bad temper of Zhu Ming's royal family. When encountering the invasion of chaos, she has no ability to deal with it. If you want my help, it is reasonable to increase the price to open higher."
Fang Xiaobai answered truthfully: "Your Majesty, my ancestral home is Zhejiang, Zhejiang. Which state specifically... I really can't remember."
"Now Aiqing's title is the Duke of Yue. How about this? Aiqing is alone as the king of Yue, and he is listed as the double king of the Ming Dynasty with Yanping Wang Zheng Sen. The current form of the Ming Dynasty is not much different from that of the Yue Kingdom in the Spring and Autumn Period. It needs to be reckless. Reorganize the army, mow the soldiers and go through the horses, the next time the capital is restored, it will not be a matter of gain and loss, I hope the King of Yue will do his best."
etc!what's the situation?That boy Zheng Sen is also crowned king?Fang Xiaobai didn't know anything about it, and hurriedly asked, "When did General Zheng become king?"
"Eh... Gu's temporary idea, after all, Gu's husband deserves the title of prince."
Aimee Zhu had the audacity to say these words, Fang Xiaobai was powerless to refute, she was right, the queen's husband must be a prince no matter what.
My Fang Xiaobai has worked so hard to create a world of princes, Zheng Sen can become a prince only by eating soft food, what is the reason!
"It's cheaper than Zheng Sen."
Looking at Aimee Zhu in the first seat, Fang Xiaobai thought for a while, and decided to tell her the truth: "Your Majesty, you don't know anything about the situation in the north. Our enemies are a group of monsters in human skin, um... how should I put it, You can imagine them as zombies, the kind of monsters with low intelligence but fighting power comparable to ten well-trained soldiers."
"What does King Yue want to say?"
Taking a deep breath, Fang Xiaobai's expression gradually became serious: "Your Majesty, although the Yellow River defense line of the Great Ming Dynasty has elite soldiers and qualified commanders, the defense line is too long and the troops are too scattered. Once these monsters gain a foothold on the south bank, the army may not be able to drive them back. North Shore."
Auntie Zhu didn't seem to believe Fang Xiaobai's words, she also carried a head on one shoulder, a breakthrough in the number of people turned into a qualitative change, and the monsters could always be piled back to the north bank: "King Yue, don't grow up with other people's ambitions, destroy your own prestige, I am optimistic about you~ "
Look after your sister! you can you up!Fang Xiaobai even wondered if it was a mistake to support this guy as emperor.
Seeing Fang Xiaobai's expression of doubting his life, Auntie Zhu was amused, and felt that something would happen if he teased him again, so she hurriedly comforted her: "King Yue, don't take it to heart, I only said those words because I was at ease with you, the second batch of new troops Preparations have already begun, and they will be equipped with the best weapons and equipment to assist the defenders in the Yellow River defense line."
This woman is hopeless, after the appraisal, he is too lazy to talk nonsense, Fang Xiaobai closed his mouth, looked at his nose, nose to toe, and looked indifferent.
Auntie Zhu smiled reservedly, and looked at Li Chengdong aside: "Loyalty, you have made great contributions to eradicating the puppet Qing this time, so I decided to make you the Duke of Yu, and you assign the specific tasks yourself. After all, it is a constitutional monarchy. Don't interfere so much, Alarielle, you are already the eternal queen of the Asur family, so you don't have to stand alone and do it for yourself."
It's nothing to Ela Ruili, her long lifespan makes her less interested in rights and honors than ordinary people, but Li Chendong is so excited that he can't calm down for a long time, and he even kowtows and begs for his loyalty.
There have been too many things happening recently... I'm a little out of shape, but I still want to thank the tearful song boss for his comments, and at the same time thank Vadali, Final Wings, Fighting Bookworm and Er... This is an embarrassing feed!
