Chapter 43: Grandson Zhu San, give Wu Sangui an order!

"This will is...must be fake!"

In the study, Zhu Hesheng had read the "Chongzhen Imperial Law" brought by Yang Qilong and immediately made the most correct judgment - the will was known to be fake as soon as he saw it!

If it is really true, it cannot be written on a piece of white paper casually, and it will be placed in an envelope made of yellow paper!

And the above content is too nonsense - how could Emperor Chongzhen immediately issue an edict to Wu Sangui to assist the Ding King Zhu Cijiong who had already secretly left the city to revive the Ming Dynasty?

If Emperor Chongzhen really believed in Wu Sangui so much, why didn’t he run away to Tianjin before the city of Beijing was broken?

Wu Sangui's army had already left Shanhaiguan and advanced westward. If Emperor Chongzhen retreated to Tianjin and Wu Sangui was loyal and reliable, he could have turned south halfway. He would definitely join Chongzhen before Li Zicheng's army reached Tianjin... Chongzhen did this, which was much more reliable than fighting in Beijing when Li Zicheng approached.

The reason why Chongzhen did not do this was mostly because he did not trust Wu Sangui as the military leader.

In addition, this will was sent by Yang Qilong, the "fake third prince Zhu", and it was probably fake.

How could Yang Qilong, the fake third prince Zhu, fool him!

You are a big fool, so you can't believe what you say... Zhu Hesheng has been "high imitation" for more than 20 years and knows the importance of "judging people".

"This is a copy," Yang Qilong's face was extremely solemn. "The original has been made by the imperial envoy Xiong Cilu, and the Chaozhou prefect Xue Zhang and others took their journey to Beijing day and night... If they were more anxious, Xuanye may have read the original copy of Chongzhen's will now!"

What? There is also the original copy of this will, and I will send it to Emperor Kangxi in Beijing?

Does Yang Qilong want to cheat my father as a colleague? Zhu Hesheng immediately thought of "hate between colleagues"!

Both Yang Qilong and the Heavenly King Zhu Ke are in the business of the Third Prince Zhu... Although the Heavenly King Zhu may be the real Third Prince Zhu, and Yang Qilong must be the fake Third Prince Zhu, he is still in the end!

When Zhu Hesheng thought of this, he glared at Yang Qilong, the "fake third prince Zhu", and asked in a cold tone: "Monkey Yang, why did you forge such a temple decree to harm my father?"

Yang Qilong was stunned by Zhu Hesheng's words and thought to himself: "Do you, Grandson Zhu, recognize your words? Is this will frame your father? It is obviously used to trick Wu Yingxiong's father Wu Sangui!"

But Yang Qilong can't tell the truth to Zhu Hesheng!

How could he admit that this will was his own work? How could he meet the group of people from the Third Prince Zhu of Chaozhou in the future?

In addition, if he forged Chongzhen's will, the news that Wu Sangui and Wu Yingxiong had suffered a lot from Zhu Hesheng and let the old traitor Wu Sangui know, would he still be fine? How could he provoke internal conflict between the Qing Dynasty and the Three Feudalists in an attempt to restore the Han Dynasty's dream of reviving the Han Dynasty?

"Why is this the Prince?"

Yang Qilong looked at Zhu Hesheng with surprise, "Qilong, with the sincerity of a remnant of the Ming Dynasty, copied the imperial edict from Shang Zhixin and took the Chongzhen seal from the Seal of the Censorship by the Master of Wei Temple... How could you say such words?"

As he said that, Yang Qilong took out a small thing wrapped in bright yellow satin from the monk's robe, held it in both hands, and placed it on the desk in front of Zhu Hesheng, "The prince might as well take a look at this."

"This is..." Zhu Hesheng saw Yang Qilong "giving gifts" to him, so he picked up the thing and peeled off the bright yellow satin outside. Only then did he realize that there was a gold seal inside.

Zhu Hesheng looked inverted the golden seal and found that the seal had the four words "Chongzhen Youjian" engraved on it - it was obvious that this was the private seal of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian.

But is this true?

When Yang Qilong saw Zhu Hesheng with a puzzled look, he took the initiative to explain: "This is a seal of the Emperor of Wei Temple. Although it is not one of the twenty-four treasures (twenty-four jade seals), it is often used by the Emperor of Wei Temple to sign the calligraphy pens that reward his ministers, so many people know it."

Emperor Chongzhen's calligraphy was very good, and his cursive and regular script had reached a relatively high level, so he liked to write large characters to give it to others. In Chongzhen's calligraphy works, the treasure of "Chongzhen Jianji" or the treasure of "Chongzhen Youjian" was generally used.

"So that's it," Zhu Hesheng nodded, "I wonder where the wizard got this seal?"

"It was Shang Zhixin who got it from your Dananshan Tianwang Village!" Yang Qilong opened his eyes and said lies, "It was also his entrusting me to return this seal to His Royal Highness the Prince."

But his lies are not a random thing.

If this seal had not come from Danan Mountain, how could Yang Qilong explain its origin?

Zhu Hesheng didn't know that his Tianwang Village was safe and sound at this time, so he was skeptical about Yang Qilong's words.

"Why did Shang Zhixin return this seal to me?" Zhu Hesheng looked at Yang Qilong and asked.

"Because Chongzhen's will soon be known to everyone in the world..." Yang Qilong smiled, "At that time, Your Highness will have to use this seal to order the King Pingxi."

"What did you say?" Zhu Hesheng was almost amused by Yang Qilong, "I will give Wu Sangui the order? Why? Can he listen to me?"

"Your Highness," Yang Qilong said with a smile, "Of course Wu Sangui won't listen to you, but he may be able to use your order... Maybe it will be used soon!"

Zhu Hesheng said: "Emperor Kangxi is not going to reduce the vassal states at the moment, right? If Kangxi does not reduce the vassal states, will Wu Sangui break up with Kangxi?"

Yang Qilong shook his head and said, "If it weren't for Chongzhen's will, Wu Sangui might not have raised an army soon, but now... he is already in control!"

"Really?" Although Zhu Hesheng asked, he already had an answer in his mind.

If that "Chongzhen's will" was really in the hands of Emperor Kangxi, it would be known to everyone in the world... Then Wu Sangui really had to rebel!

When Yang Qilong saw Zhu Hesheng's expression, he no longer explained it. Instead, he took out a draft that had been prepared and handed it to Zhu Hesheng with both hands.

Zhu Hesheng took the draft and looked at it. It turned out to be a "Taisun Order" that encouraged Wu Sangui to rebel.

"Your Highness," said Yang Qilong, "If you think the draft order is OK, please copy one according to it, and then use the treasure of "Chongzhen Youjian"... and take a risk to Yunnan."

Zhu Hesheng smiled, "Master Yang wouldn't think that I don't even have someone here who can write the imperial edict of the Grandson, right?"

"Ah, by the way," Yang Qilong smiled immediately, "How come Qilong forgot that there is a factory here in the prince... The order he drafted must be better and more in line with the rules than the poor monk!"

Zhu Hesheng just smiled, then changed the topic and asked: "Did the master bring about the deployment of the Qing army?"

"Yes," said Yang Qilong. "Shang Zhixin was determined to support the enemy. He was worried that the prince's prince would have few soldiers and could not resist the army mobilized by the imperial envoy Misihan, so he asked me to inform you about it."

"Mishan?" Zhu Hesheng asked, "Who is he?"

"He was a Manchu, Fucha, and the descendant of the general. Before coming to Guangdong, he was appointed as the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Political Affairs. He was Xuanye's confidant and advocated the reduction of the vassal."

Yang Qilong said: "So he became the imperial envoy to supervise the Military Affairs Minister of Fujian, Guangdong, which would make many people unable to sleep or eat... And apart from the flag army of Xushun Gongfu and the Haicheng Gongfu (Huang Wu), Mi Sihan would not believe other Han troops or green camps who had been stationed in Fujian and Guangdong for a long time. If the prince wanted to break the siege of Guiyu Capital, it would be better to do it as soon as possible. If Mi Sihan transferred hundreds of Eight Banners soldiers from the north, the people in Guangdong and Fujian would probably change!"

"What?" Zhu Hesheng was stunned, "Hundreds and Eight Banners soldiers?"

"Yes," Yang Qilong looked worried, "The Eight Banners soldiers themselves may not be very powerful, but the green camps and Han troops in various places are afraid of the Eight Banners of Manchuria. Once they are escorted, they will be fierce when they fight!"

Zhu Hesheng smiled slightly: "Master, I am not afraid of the fierce soldiers of the Qing army... because I am the most fierce person in the world!"

The most evil in the world?

Yang Qilong was amused and laughed when he heard this. He had been in Beijing for so many years, but he had never seen any kind of evil person? No matter what aspect of Zhu Hesheng's evil is, he cannot regard the word "most"?

However, Daboling's eyes lit up - it turns out that Cannon Zhu is still very fierce!

Yang Qilong nodded at this time, took out another envelope and handed it to Zhu Hesheng with both hands, "This is a pass token from the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. I got it from Shang Zhixin, and you may be able to use it!"
