Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 168
Probably Ao Bai was sad that his brother Zhao Butai was killed at the hands of the Ming army. Coupled with the complicated military and political affairs, this powerful minister actually fell ill.

After Oboi fell ill, Xuanye, the young Tartar emperor, went to visit Oboi's mansion in person following the order of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

At this time, Xuanye was only an eight-year-old child, but he had been on the throne for two years and was taught by Xiaozhuang almost day and night. This eight-year-old child also showed an unusual precocity.

Xuanye likes to listen to stories, and is full of curiosity about the outside world.Recently, he asked various people to tell him what happened in the south. The eight-year-old child was also worried about the retreat of the Qing army and the loss of five provinces.Hearing about Zhu Cixuan, the crown prince of Nanming who is said to be able to attract thunder and fire, Xuan Ye was also full of childlike innocence and curiosity.

When Xuan Ye paid his respects to Xiaozhuang before, he said this: "It is said that Zhu Cixuan is really a demon and can perform many tricks. My son was very interested in hearing this. Why don't we capture him sometime and bring him to the capital, where he can perform many tricks?" The Empress Dowager will perform a show in front of her, and then cut her off, okay?"

Xiao Zhuang was also amazed at Xuan Ye's natural "revolutionary optimism spirit", and said to his beloved grandson: "Follow your little emperor's wishes, first capture this monster."

Xuan Ye added: "A few days ago, Hong Jinglue wrote a letter saying that Zhu Cixuan was doing rebellious and evil things in the south, causing harm to one party and having no moral ethics. Hong Jinglue suggested that Zhu Cixuan, who was immoral and perverse, was walking around the world and was a demon star. Reincarnation will cause a lot of harm, if all the people in the world are afraid of it, then the people's hearts are in our Qing Dynasty, and great things can be achieved."

Xiaozhuang replied: "Since there is such a method, let the people below implement it."

Xuan Ye said distressedly: "But Erchen told Ao Shaobao, but Ao Shaobao didn't care. Instead, he vaguely rebuked Erchen, thinking that Erchen was just playing a game."

"Over there, tell Hong Chengchou to do it. Since it is his idea, he can also implement it."

Xuan Ye, who came to Oboi's mansion, remembered the conversation with his grandmother, and had a lot of opinions on Oboi.When he first came to the throne, Xuan Ye didn't understand anything, but he was a little afraid of the ministers.In the beginning, Oboi was still respectful and friendly in front of him, but recently Oboi's power has grown, and his whole person has become more and more domineering, and sometimes even loudly reprimanded him in front of the emperor. The minister will even contradict himself, saying that he is a child and doesn't understand anything, so don't meddle in the affairs of adults.

Xuan Ye gradually began to feel that in this court, if Oboi was still alive, he might never be the emperor in his mind.

It was a great honor for the emperor to come to the mansion to visit the sick. Although Oboi was bedridden, the people in his mansion took him very seriously. Before Xuan Ye arrived, Oboi's family members began to wait.After Xuan Ye arrived, they all bowed down to welcome the "Holy Driver".

"Let's get rid of the courtesy, how is Ao Shaobao?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the master took a soup last night, and his complexion has improved today. It is even more honorable to know that His Majesty visited him personally, and he is already more than half healed at this time!"

Xuan Ye smiled and said, "Then let's take a look at Ao Shaobao."

At this moment, his bodyguard leader Wo He said: "Your Majesty, you have to search Ao Shaobao's bedroom according to the rules."

Xuan Ye originally wanted to say that there is no need to be so troublesome, but after thinking about it again, he said, "Be quicker."

The guards entered Oboi's room, Xuan Ye stood outside the door and waited.

Not long after, Wo He actually came out with a knife. Wo He's face was a little blue, and he reported to Xuan Ye: "Your Majesty, this thing was found on Ao Shaobao's bed."

The relatives and servants of Oboi's family saw that it was a knife, they were so frightened that they all knelt down, fearful and afraid to speak.

Even Xuan Ye's face turned pale. Aobai knew that he was going to see him, but there was a knife hidden on the bed?What kind of operation is this? Could it be that Oboi wants to conspire to usurp the throne and kill the king?

Wo He was ready to move at this time, he and Oboi were at odds with each other, after finding the murder weapon, Wo He kept his hand on the saber at his waist, and kept his eyes fixed on Xuan Ye's pockmarked face. He had smallpox, and after recovering, he had acne scars on his face, which were like pockmarks, so he was a veritable Kang pockmark.

It seemed that as long as Xiaokang Mazi gave an order, Wo He would immediately rush into the room and kill Oboi.

However, Xuan Ye also discovered some other signs. The slaves of the Aobai family seemed to be looking at each other and winking. Aobai had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and the soldiers around him were also a group of good warriors. No one could tell. Whether these people can get weapons immediately, and the guards Xuan Ye brought to Obai's house are all young men from noble families, whether they can fight with the veteran soldiers of Obai's house, Xuan Ye himself has no idea end.

All eyes were on Xuan Ye, whether it was sword light, blood and shadow or love and peace, it all depended on this one.

Xuan Ye suddenly laughed and said: "What's so strange about this? Ao Shaobao is the number one Batulu in Manchuria, a warrior among the best in the world, and wearing weapons close to his body is my Manchu custom. I followed Taizu Taizong back then. When the emperor fights, he must always carry a sharp knife with him, why did Emperor Taizu and Taizong care about it?"

As he said that, Xiaokang Mazi walked into Obai's room calmly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only Wo He was very frustrated, but there was no other way.

Ao Bai had already got off the bed, and as soon as Xuan Ye entered the door, he saw Ao Bai wearing underwear, kneeling on the ground to apologize to himself.Xuan Ye pretended to be magnanimous, and comforted him, but he rewarded Oboi, helped him back to the bed, let him recover from his illness, and gave Oboi many rewards.

The visit ended not long after, and Xuan Ye got up and drove back to the palace.

Not only was Oboi fine, but on the contrary he was rewarded by Xiaokang Mazi, he was quite proud, but for Wo He who didn't give him any face and exposed himself, Oboi's face was gloomy.

"This kid, Wo He, dares to be my enemy, Oboi. If so, let's have a chance to send him on the road!"

The strife and internal strife within the Qing court were very serious. Compared with the struggle between the eunuch party and the Donglin party in the late Ming Dynasty, the intensity was only stronger but not weaker.Even at this moment, the Qing court now has a certain consensus to deal with the issue of Nanming, but the struggle for power is still one of their main lines.The battle between the two yellow flags and the white flag is still going on, and the contest between the imperial power and powerful ministers seems to be intensifying.

They didn't know that at this time, Bai Mingxiu had already boarded the new-generation steam ironclad ship that he spent a lot of money to exchange from the system, and led his imperial army, the Independent Brigade of the Ming Dynasty Restoration Army, on the voyage to the south of the Yangtze River.
