Chongzhen Undergraduates

"It's nothing to do with the prince, we just want to go back to the land of Daming." Zhu Cihong said.

"Your Majesty, Li Dingguo knows that you treat me well, but I, Li Dingguo, am a loyal and patriotic person, and you are not the emperor of Ming Dynasty." Li Dingguo added.

At this moment, Zhu Youjian completely understood that these people had actually seen it, especially Zhu Cihong, who probably had already discovered the clue.It's no wonder, after all, he was not young when Chongzhen hanged himself, and he was still a prince.He is very clear about the nature of the emperor. The most important thing is that the current Zhu Youjian has deprived him of the title of prince, but he has not given it for a long time, and has given birth to several young sons.

This will inevitably not make people think, not to mention that Wang Chengen has known Zhu Youjian's true identity for a long time.

"Then what do you think?" Zhu Youjian is also a bachelor, anyway, he is a knife and I am a fish.

"Hand over the throne to the crown prince." Li Dingguo said.

"The prince is over 30, and he can ascend the throne." Wang Chengen said.

"You want Daming to go back to the past?" Zhu Youjian stared at Zhu Cihong and asked.

Zhu Cilang avoided Zhu Youjian's gaze. He had dealt with local affairs over the years, and of course he had also learned new knowledge, and he understood better what Zhu Youjian was talking about before.In fact, deep down in his heart, he didn't want to go back to the past, to the society in his childhood memory where his father was in constant trouble every day.

"Your Majesty, this old slave just wants to see Daming's throne handed over to the Crown Prince." Wang Chengen choked up and said.

"What about you?" Zhu Youjian stared at Li Dingguo coldly and asked.

"I only protect the world of the Zhu family." Li Dingguo said with a little confidence.

"Don't hurt my father." Zhu Cijiong stood up at a critical moment, stood between Zhu Youjian and Zhu Cihong and said, "Brother, what can I do to your father?"

"Shut up! He's not our father." Zhu Cihuan slapped Zhu Cijiong's face with a slap.

Zhu Youjian hurriedly supported Zhu Cihuan, without even looking at Zhu Cihuan, in fact, he knew one thing very clearly, the cheap son in front of him really wasn't brought up by himself, otherwise he wouldn't do this to his brother.Zhu Cijiong didn't have the ability to hinder anyone here, he just expressed his own thoughts, why did he want to beat him?

"噗!" With a sound, Zhu Cihuan pulled out his sword on the spot, pointed at Zhu Youjian's nose and said, "In my opinion, it's better to kill them both and restore the ancestors."

"Your brother can't, after all he has made contributions to Daming." Zhu Cihong said hastily.

Wang Chengen and Li Dingguo were also taken aback when Zhu Cihuan drew his sword.

"If you don't kill him today, he will kill us tomorrow." Wherever Zhu Cihuan listened, he stabbed him, and Zhu Cijiong stood up and blocked Zhu Youjian's sword.Because Zhu Cijiong was wearing hard rubber, and Zhu Cihuan's strength was insufficient, the sword's edge was actually blocked by the thick rubber armor.

Zhu Cihuan was so angry that he drew his sword and slashed again.

"Don't hurt the Lord Long Live!" Wang Chengen's eyes were dazed, and he blocked it regardless. He used all his strength to knock Zhu Cihuan away, but also knocked Zhu Youjian back a few times. step.

"You can't hurt him, his body still belongs to Lord Long Live." Wang Chengen fell to the ground and muttered, how could he tolerate others hurting Chongzhen's body.

"You dog slave, your chance has come, why don't you make a move?" Zhu Cihuan got up after rolling over, and shouted to the door.

Chapter 7 Nineteen: What the People Want

As soon as Zhu Cihuan yelled, many officers and soldiers rushed in from the door, apparently they were all recruited by him.

Those who could listen to him were military officers, and these people had already been brainwashed by Zhu Cihuan.But ordinary soldiers and junior officers and soldiers do not know the truth, they only know to obey the orders of their commanders.

"Li Dingguo wants to kill the king and protect the emperor!" As someone shouted from Zhu Cihuan's side, the officers and soldiers who rushed in exploded in an instant.

They were inspected and encouraged by the emperor just now, how could they be framed by others, of course not, not even Li Dingguo.First of all, the concept of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is not allowed. Second, everyone has heard of Li Dingguo's background.

Hearing that someone wanted to kill the king, Yang Xin would definitely not agree, he was the first to rush up, and then a small group of people behind him desperately wanted to save the emperor.

At this moment, all three parties in the yard fought. Zhu Youjian had the fewest people, but the most elite; Zhu Cihuan and Li Dingguo must have more people, but they didn't react at all; Will protect the emperor, and then fight with Zhu Youjian's people again.It's all chaos anyway.

"Long Live Lord, the old slave didn't want to harm you!" Wang Chengen was already confused, half of his mind was Chongzhen, and half was the current Zhu Youjian.

"Old guy, I know what you're thinking." Zhu Youjian supported Wang Chengen. He actually understood this famous loyal eunuch in history.

Yang Xin is so fierce, no one expected that their small team found a gap abruptly, hit Zhu Youjian's side, and then protected Zhu Youjian, Zhu Cijiong, and Wang Chengen stand up.Zhu Youjian's guards saw that this group of people did not hurt the emperor, and the knife edge was always facing outward, but they themselves were unable to snatch Zhu Youjian back.

"Your Majesty, let us protect you." The veteran under Yang Xin was very excited, and with an excited look on his face, he came up and kowtowed.

"Yes! Don't worry if we are with the emperor." Yang Xin was equally excited, and stood in front of Zhu Youjian with a sword.

Zhu Cijiong was about to stab Yang Xin in the back, but was stopped by Zhu Youjian.

"Yang Xin, you bastard slave, why don't you bring them here quickly?" Zhu Cihuan ordered from a distance, full of joy when he saw that the emperor was restrained.

Yang Xinzhen was about to drag Zhu Youjian away, but he heard the emperor say loudly, "I'm not going anywhere unless you kill me."

These words are very interesting, but Yang Xin was taken aback.No matter how stupid this kid was, he could tell that the emperor's words were not aimed at Zhu Cihuan.So he turned his sword outward again and stood in front of the emperor again.A situation where the three parties confronted each other formed at the scene, and Zhu Youjian actually had a small team of helpers out of thin air.When Zhu Cihuan's soldiers saw this situation, some of them began to waver, and the three parties couldn't help each other for a while.

"Prince! You can't kill him, you can't." Wang Chengen was half awake and half confused, and shouted.

Just this sound woke up Zhu Cihong, he knew that he really couldn't kill Zhu Youjian today.And Li Dingguo finally got Da Ming, and he was also in a dilemma.

"I am the Emperor of Daming, isn't the current Daming not good? Have I treated you badly?" Seeing that the situation was in chaos, Zhu Youjian had no choice but to come out to clean up the mess.

How to clean up?The backbone members of the three parties would definitely not be able to persuade them, so they could only win over ordinary soldiers, and use his emperor's influence and personality charm to win over these people.When the emperor spoke, the soldiers naturally listened to what was being said.

"Think about your family, think about Daming's life now, what's not better than before. What good will it do you if you kill me today?" Zhu Youjian continued: "I know that many of you don't understand What happened here, who is the enemy and who is the comrade-in-arms; but you have to believe in me, I am your only emperor."

The three parties confront each other, and Zhu Youjian cannot directly say who is right and who is wrong.For example, if he says that Zhu Cihuan is a traitor, then everyone will point their heads at Zhu Cihuan, then the eldest prince and Li Dingguo will take advantage of the opportunity, and in the end he will still have to face Li Dingguo and the others; If it is defined as treason, Zhu Cihuan will take advantage of it.

Since it can't encourage the strength of the other two factions, it's better to increase its own strength.

As soon as the emperor said this, soldiers immediately moved closer to Zhu Youjian, because what the emperor said was very reasonable, and in the current situation, there was only one person they could trust, and that was their emperor.

"Come back. You dog slaves, have I raised you for nothing?" Zhu Cihuan was furious, but he could only watch helplessly as the soldiers and junior officers on his side kept running to the emperor's side.

"Your majesty, are you doing this to kill us here?" Li Dingguo said with a dark face.

Li Dingguo has already seen that the emperor in front of him is not a pussy, and he is very good at using people's hearts.Even in his camp, many soldiers defected.You must know that he and Zhu Cihuan have conspired for a long time, just to find an opportunity to force Zhu Youjian to hand over Jiang Shan.

"You said, I didn't want to fight with anyone. What I'm showing you now is the hearts of the people." Zhu Youjian said loudly: "Is the emperor good or not? The people know best. These soldiers are the people first, and then the soldiers." Are they not behind the thousands of families of Ming Dynasty? Do you think they don’t know what a country is and what a family is?”

Zhu Youjian's words resounded through the courtyard, and everyone could hear them clearly.Thanks to the military's literacy and cultural education, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty now have basic cultural literacy and have broken away from the blind obedience of the old days.The most important thing is that they have been able to distinguish right from wrong.

Li Dingguo was speechless, he suddenly found that he also had a feeling of being persuaded by the emperor, but he resisted not to waver, the idea of ​​forcing himself was correct.But the soldiers all over the courtyard understood, and every sentence of the emperor hit people's hearts.Zhu Youjian at least let everyone understand a truth, the emperor in front of them is a good emperor.

With a bang, more than half of the soldiers ran to the emperor's side.The confrontation between the three parties is still there, but the balance of power has completely changed. Even if Zhu Cihuan and Zhu Cihong join forces, they cannot match the troops around the emperor.

"Quickly retreat!" Zhu Cihuan saw that something was wrong, turned around and was about to run.

"Young man, go catch the traitor!" Zhu Youjian patted Yang Xin on the shoulder, and this time looked at Yang Xin with pure encouragement.

Yang Xin didn't say a word, and immediately chased out with dozens of people. After a while, Zhu Cihuan begged for mercy loudly, shouting "Father, please forgive me."

"If you want to kill or scrape, it's up to you." Li Dingguo threw the long sword in his hand on the ground, and he didn't expect such an ending.

Just when Zhu Cihong was about to wipe the knife on his neck, Wang Chengen suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty, you can't kill the prince! This old slave will send him to the head of the country to hide first."
