Chapter 340

Final chapter

The messenger, who was far away from the imperial capital, did not stop for a moment, and was soon admitted to the cabinet. He was panting quickly and galloped all the way without a moment. At this time, his face was exhausted and his lips were chapped. However, he took out the secret box from his arms and presented it with both hands.

"The King of Pingjiang has a secret letter to submit it. Lord Chen ordered his subordinates to send it to the imperial capital overnight and submit it to His Majesty."

The secret letter was worshipped in front of Pei Xiang, and the cabinet officials went around one after another. The Censor Du Zhuo poured a cup of tea and handed it to the messenger. The messenger took it with both hands and poured it down in one breath. The thirsty and fever throat was moistened by warm tea, which immediately sootheed a lot. The messenger couldn't help but lick the tea remaining on the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that a cup of tea was just quenching his thirst.

Zhuo Jingshi simply handed him the teapot and said, "If you want to drink here, you are afraid of being uncomfortable. Thank you for your hard work, go out to drink."

The messenger thanked him and took the teapot and left.

This secret box was not opened in the cabinet, so it was naturally to be presented to His Majesty.

Pei Xiang called Du Shangshu to go with him.

The sycamore trees outside the imperial study were covered with green shade, which gave the scorching summer day. After Emperor Mu Xuan regained his power, he still handled state affairs here.

The Zhili secret receipt was presented, but Emperor Mu Xuan did not read it immediately, but instead asked with interest, "Do you think the old man has not withdrawn?"

Seeing the emperor's tone relaxed, Pei Xiang's expression also relaxed a lot. He was really unsure of the prince who had spitted on his face after he went to court. "Old minister guess, half, half."

Shangshu Du was accustomed to being serious and concise, "not retreating."

Shangshu Du’s proposal also asked the third prince Mu Anzhi to come to the imperial capital directly. This is not something that can be solved by political skills. Mu Anzhi’s current strength has no political skills to stop him.

Emperor Mu Xuan signaled to the secret box between the table, "Du Qing open it."

Sure enough, although Mu Anzhi's memorial was written politely, he did not say anything to retreat. He said in a secret letter that he would not be at ease if he saw His Majesty's health.

Governor Chen's memorial also clearly shows that the third highman is strong and resolutely refuses to retreat, so he must enter the imperial capital. Moreover, it also introduces in detail the new weapon in the third highman's hand, a very powerful cannon. It is said that the one shot was bombarded and its power was shocking, which is very similar to the □□ recorded in historical books that forced Emperor Renzong, who was once a vassal king, to escape for 800 miles.

In the memorial, Governor Chen said that all people will feel devastated when they see it. If they can be used in the war in the southwest, I believe that the situation of the war can be reversed quickly and the lost land will be recovered.

No wonder the third prince entered the pass so quickly, it must be a new weapon made by Lord Bai.

With the strength of the Northern Frontier Army, the Third Highness can carry this powerful weapon, no wonder it can go smoothly all the way to the imperial capital.

Indeed, such a powerful tool will definitely reverse the situation in the Southwest.

And such a powerful weapon is only in the hands of His Highness.

Pei Xiang and Shangshu Du were waiting for Emperor Mu Xuan's orders. Emperor Mu Xuan said, "Come to the third brother to the imperial capital. Pei Xiang prepares the etiquette for enthroning the Eastern Palace. By the way, write the imperial edict and send it to Zhili to the third brother to the heart."

Pei Du and both breathed a sigh of relief.

Emperor Mu Xuan looked out the window with dazzling sunshine and sent the two of them down.

The good news of the general's establishment of the crown prince soon spread throughout the court. Emperor Mu Xuan personally went to Ci'en Palace to inform his mother about the matter. Emperor Mu Xuan said, "I think my mother will not object, so I did not discuss with my mother, so I asked the cabinet to do it first."

Queen Mother Lan patted her son's hand, "No matter who is the prince, she is my grandson. If it is Anzhi, it will be better. I have always believed that Anzhi is this piece of material."

"How did the mother see it? I didn't see it at first."

Emperor Mu Xuan was never very happy with Mu Anzhi. Whether it was before or now, he slowly sipped the tea and said casually.

Queen Mother Lan said, "Anzhi looks like you the most."

Emperor Mu Xuan was so upset that he didn't choke to death. If Mu Anzhi heard Empress Dowager Lan's words, he would probably be so disgusting that he couldn't eat.

The imperial decree arrived soon, and the Censor Zhuo was sent to announce the edict.

There are many senior citizens in the cabinet who are more experienced than Censor Zhuo, but when he thinks of the third prince's rushing to come to the imperial capital, Censor Zhuo won as the youngest cabinet minister in the cabinet. He is in good health and can pass by quickly, so as to avoid the third prince's rush to wait and be able to rest assured the third prince's heart.

In fact, this is because everyone in the cabinet is thinking too much, and the third prince has nothing to worry about.

When the messenger set off from Zhili with a secret letter, the third prince was still in Handan. When the imperial edict was delivered, the third prince's king had already arrived in Baozhou. He walked for another two days and was outside the suburbs of the imperial capital.

After the imperial edict was read, Mu Anzhi was immediately filled with congratulations, especially the civil servants and military generals around Mu Anzhi, who were even more happy. For example, the elderly, Hua Changshi had tears in his eyes. Chen Jian was so happy that he was not as good as his face.

Mu Anzhi just raised his lips with a reserved swaying, and shook his hand with the imperial edict of Chinese decoration. He felt that the embroidery was a little uncomfortable, "Thank you Your Majesty to be respected." He asked Censor Zhuo, "Your Majesty can be safe in the dragon body? Is the emperor's grandmother good? Can the emperor be safe?"

His joy and anger were not reflected in his expression, which really made Censor Zhuo treat him differently. He thought that the third prince had not been vassal for a long time, but he had really learned it. In fact, Censor Zhuo thought too much, and Mu Anzhi led his troops to the outskirts of the imperial capital. He did not come for the position of crown prince, he came for the throne.

Even if he became the emperor, he was not very happy. He was in his hands now, and he was just a little different from the emperor. If he really fought, the soldiers and horses in the imperial capital might not be his opponents.

He just didn't want to force himself, so he left some face to the court.

Censor Zhuo naturally said good, and said something about His Majesty and the Empress Dowager both remember His Highness very much, so he asked Mu Anzhi when he would go back to the imperial capital.

Mu Anzhi handed over the imperial edict to Xiaoyi and kept it in check, "All ready, let's go now."

On the way, Censor Zhuo asked again how the soldiers led by Mu Anzhi were arranged. Mu Anzhi's way, "Five thousand personal guards followed me into the city, and the rest lived outside the city temporarily. Is there a place outside the city?"

"Yes. The former garrison of the Dragon and Tiger Camp was allocated to the Northern Frontier Army. What do you think about it?"

"No one left in the Dragon and Tiger Camp?" Although he expected that the Dragon and Tiger Camp might be taken away by Mu Qizhi, he did not expect it to be so thorough.

Zhuo Yushi said, "The Longhu Camp was run by the Qin family for many years, and he had two intentions and was a common human nature to follow the rebellion."

Mu Anzhi glanced at the Censor Zhuo, "I see that you, the prince, are still as moist as before."

"Although the title has not been performed, the decree has been issued, and Your Highness is the crown prince. Do you want me to be the crown prince's master?"

"You're so thick-skinned."

"You are kind." In front of anyone, Censor Zhuo has the ability to speak and laugh freely.

"First, Mu Qizhi forced the palace to do so. Can you loyal ministers in the court stand up and say justice?" Mu Anzhi continued to ask.

"Shame." Censor Zhuo said ashamed, his face was not ashamed. His pupils reflected in the blue sky in the distance. "Thanks to your highness to send troops into the pass, the court can take this opportunity to kill the rebel ministers."

Mu Anzhi asked, "How did Mu Qizhi run away? The Dragon and Tiger Camp Imperial Guards are all in his hands. I remember that the nine gates of Marquis Yong'an was in charge, so I let him run away like that?"

Zhuo Jingshi said, "Once the nine gates chased out of the imperial capital, there would be no guards in the imperial capital. I would just leave. However, no, Mu Qizhi didn't bring anything, not to mention gold, silver, jewelry, etc., and there was no major fluctuation in food and medicinal materials, which is very strange."

"That's because I'm prepared." Mu Anzhi had a big hat on his head. It was too hot to ride a horse in summer. They had avoided the sun at noon, but it was still very hot.

"It must be before the palace change."

"This is not surprising. Although he and Duke Lu have a close relationship with both nephew and uncle and Weng Yue, he has never liked the Lu family very much. Duke Lu's biggest hope lies with him. If his relatives cannot control him, he will definitely tell him about his bloodline. He will not sit still and wait for death, and leave a way out for himself to change his personality." Mu Anzhi asked, "Where is the Lu family?"

"The Lu family has been interrogated at the Ministry of Justice."

"Didn't you die?"

"How can it be?"

"That's good." Mu Anzhi looked lazy and his eyes were sharp. "If anyone killed the Lu family, he would be against me and would prevent me from re-investigating the Liu family's case."

The visitor is not good.

Zhuo Jingshi had such preparations, but he did not expect Mu Anzhi's decisive and decisive method to be. He couldn't help but look at Mu Anzhi's eyes. Mu Anzhi smiled, "Mr. Zhuo must understand my feelings, right? When Lord Zhuo overturned the verdict for the Yan family, I was deeply shocked. I thought that most people who came to officials like the cabinet ministers would weigh the pros and cons, and fewer people with affection and righteousness. Lord Zhuo was different. Lord Zhuo had a fire in his heart, but this light of fire was not used in the court."

"It's no wonder. Back then, I fought for the throne with Mu Qizhi. It was better to say that I was fighting for the throne than to fight for the throne. The civil and military officials of the court were only willing to say a fair word, saying that I was not a legitimate, and Mu Qizhi was a legitimate? It was different from that when Liu was not enthroned, it was hard for you to say that he was the legitimate son of the legitimate son in order to praise him." Mu Anzhi said, "Later, Ru Yu was exiled from afar, and I thought that it was ridiculous to raise such a king in the court. Everyone was pleased that day, but when Mu Qizhi forced the palace, no one was willing to speak frankly. You all protect yourself first and want to keep a useful body before you can do it. Now he is taking over the court again, is there something missing?"

Censor Zhuo looked at Mu Anzhi's face under his hat without blinking. Mu Anzhi's eyes were bright, and his body was filled with the vitality of young people, just like the new green that had just broken through the ground in spring, with infinite vitality. Even though Censor Zhuo has always been inconsistent with Mu Anzhi, he couldn't help but feel close to him at this time.

Mu Anzhi disdained, "You are so weighing, you are so mature, you are so perfect, you are so content with wealth and peace, it is so boring!"

On the evening of the next day, Mu Anzhi led a large army outside the city. Censor Zhuo asked Mu Anzhi if he wanted to enter the city tomorrow morning, so that he could arrange a grand welcoming ceremony. Mu Anzhi waved his hand, "Welcome to Mao, the mountains and rivers are broken, and Marquis Lu is set up outside. Jiang Xun takes the guards to the royal palace. Xiaobao, go home first to meet your aunt and uncle. Guards will follow me to the palace to meet His Majesty."

The imperial capital is actually the same. The setting fires burned the clouds in the sky, casting a layer of magnificent color on the entire imperial capital. However, the palace changes one after another, the air atmosphere was tense, and there were many more soldiers patrolling, and even the prosperity was not as good as before.

When he arrived at the Forbidden Palace, the sunset had completely disappeared, and only a few orange clouds were left in the west, outlining the outline of Mu Anzhi's sharpness. Mu Anzhi had not waited outside the imperial study room for too long. Basically, as soon as he arrived, the eunuch invited him in. He could not tell his disrespect even when he bowed. However, Emperor Mu Xuan knew in his heart that things had changed.

Mu Qizhi was forced to the palace and there were still some past love parts to talk about. For Mu Anzhi, there was no place to mention his love parts.

The two of them said a few nonsense, "It's good on the road" and "Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy", and then they fell into an awkward silence. Mu Anzhi had no intention of provoking the topic again. Emperor Mu Xuan's fatigue came late and vigorously, and he was suppressed by the power of the throne and could not breathe. He rubbed his eyebrows, a little disheartened, "Please choose an auspicious day and you will ascend the throne."

Mu An didn't say a polite word, and he said calmly, "Since Your Majesty is not strong enough, I am willing to take over the country."

Emperor Mu Xuan had a lot of shock in his eyes, but his words just now were not completely heartless. He smiled bitterly, "You are still the same. I am now letting you laugh at me?"

"I didn't think it was ridiculous at first. When Your Majesty said it, I felt it was ridiculous. Your Majesty promised the throne to the East Palace. I thought Liu was your Majesty's favorite for life. Didn't your Majesty's power be inherited by the East Palace? Mu Qizhi just went ahead. If Your Majesty cherishes him, why don't you help him take over the government?" Mu Anzhi said lightly, "What's wrong with Zhennan's bloodline? Isn't he your Majesty's parent-child? Just because his other half is from the vassal state bloodline,

Isn't worthy of being the crown prince? If he had two intentions towards the court, he would have colluded with Duke Lu, but he did not do so. What if Your Majesty loves him, and he really passed the throne to him? Your Majesty loves him, loves Lu, but he loves the throne even more, so he became a rebellious minister and son who plots against rebellion. Your Majesty cannot control the court, and mistakenly uses treacherous and slanderous works to make mistakes in the southwest; if your Majesty has a husband, his beauty will be weak and his love will be relaxed; if your father is just like that, it is really ridiculous to see Your Majesty's life."

Emperor Mu Xuan immediately turned pale, "If you hadn't spread rumors in the northern border, how could that be!"

"I will disperse it. Your beloved queen and prince are of this kind of blood. Could it be that you can be safe by covering up your ears and stealing the bell? Your Majesty is not careful about the king and misuses Duke Lu, what does it have to do with me?" Mu Anzhi corrected, "I spread it is not a rumor, but the truth. I am not like Your Majesty, but I am also a father now. Since becoming a father, I have always thought that with your favor for Mu Qizhi, even if there is such a rumor, I probably won't succeed. I really didn't expect that your father and son's love is so fragile. I hate Mu Qizhi very much, but I really sympathize with him. You think you have been betrayed, but you betray your father, kind and filial son first. Your Majesty, how much you care about bloodline, have you not noticed it?"

"When I was appointed as a crown prince, you must let the Ministry of Rites decide that Mu Qizhi was the legitimate son, and you must use the eldest son as the legitimate son as the throne. Why? Although others are hateful, he is the eldest son, and his talent is not inferior to me. Do you think the Lu family is fighting for the legitimate character. No, you have always been fighting for him. Maybe you don't realize how much you value the legitimate family." Mu Anzhi said, "The rumors spread to the imperial capital. Have you comforted him? Have you ever made it clear to him that he is your only heir? It's your own dislike and taboo to his other half of blood. You

If he is uneasy, he will force the palace. He knows you a hundred times more than me. How could he sit and wait for death and let others judge him because of his bloodline. Don’t talk about him, I will rebel against me. How could there be a father like you in the world? You are not favored. Will Lu become pregnant by himself? Which prince’s mother tribe can be more precious than royal family? The prince’s mother tribe is royal blood rather than mother tribe bloodline! You are your favorite Lu family, you make her the queen, you make Mu Qi the crown prince, and you have been a saint and wise father for decades. Because they have the blood of Zhennan, they are not worthy of all this?"

"It's really narrow and ridiculous! The emperor is rich in all directions. Zhennan is the Eastern Mu vassal state. You establish a crown prince to establish talent and virtue. As long as he is your seed, as long as he is talent and virtue, why are he not worthy of the position of crown prince? It's not Mu Qizhi who treacherous the country, but Duke Lu! Mu Qizhi did not conspire with Duke Lu, but your hypocritical behavior made them go on the same path. It was you who caused the situation today. You are not broad-minded, ungrateful and righteous, and favored him for being unkind, and you will be rewarded!"

Emperor Mu Xuan was so humiliated that he couldn't sit still. He stood up and glared at Mu Anzhi, "Even if I help Qizhi up, will you not rebel?"

"He will rebel. But he will not run away. If he is the king, he would rather die in battle than live in vain."

"You are complacent for the merits of suppressing rebellion against the Northern Xinjiang when you were young. Today, it's time for you to come down."

Of course, Mu Anzhi did not like Mu Qizhi, and he still hated this person. Ascending the throne as emperor and empress, Mu Anzhi directly removed Mu Qizhi from the royal family. Of course, ascending the throne did not mean peace. Let the Marquis Lu lead his troops back to the northern border. As soon as Mu Anzhi got together, the war started to rise again in the northern border. Du Changshi and the Lin brothers supported the overall situation alone. After hearing Mu Anzhi's enthronement, he came with eighteen urgent reports, complaining that he could not stand it anymore.

Mu Anzhi saw that he still had time to send an urgent report, so he could still withstand it. In addition, the war in the southwest sent Hu Anli to overturn the case, the Liu family overturned the case, the Lu family was tried, Pei Xiang of the cabinet resigned, the Minister of War was vacant, and Fu Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue was retired at an age. Mu Anzhi was very unceremonious and replaced his own person.

The new king acts vigorously and his ministers below also have a new look. The main reason is that depending on who can't do it, the new king will directly replace him. A large number of heroes who follow the dragon's merits are waiting to rise to the throne.

Moreover, this person is famous for having a bad temper. The worst thing is that he has been in charge of military and political affairs in the northern border, and has tried major cases in the Ministry of Justice. He is very careful and can never be fooled.

No wonder he has to be a twelve point of his work under such a new man and sell his strength.

I don’t know if it was because the new king was indeed the chosen son of God. Before he ascended the throne, news came from the southwest that Feng Ning killed the Lord of Zhennan. Although the prince of Zhennan ascended the throne in front of the formation, such news was still inspiring.
