Chapter 351 Petition to be crowned king
Tianyuan and Earth shine, it has been seven days since Zhu Wushi returned to the capital.
Everyone in the capital knew that they would return to the capital during the day. Finally, this morning, the imperial edict team from the palace came to Zhu Mansion on Baima Street.
When the team came to Zhu's mansion, they were surprised to find that Zhu Wushi was waiting in front of the mansion early.
The eunuch in the lead walked out of the carriage. He was stunned and walked forward, bowed and said, "I have seen the marquis."
Zhu Wushi nodded slightly. The eunuch in red robe looked humble, but he was a real first-rate master. He naturally realized that Zhu Wushi's strength was different now.
The eunuch wanted to exchange a few greetings when he saw Zhu Wushi raise his hand. He understood the meaning immediately, waved his sleeves and turned sideways to take down the imperial edict from the servant, coughing twice:
"The Emperor of Heaven and Continuing the Emperor, summoned him"
Zhu Wushi took over the imperial edict, and his intention was simple, but he only expressed the new emperor's optimism for Zhu Wushi and summoned Zhu Wushi to the palace to meet the saint.
"Marty, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."
The eunuch left a sentence, then stepped back and left.
Zhu Wushi looked at his back silently. Although Xiao Nianhe expressed his appreciation in the edict, he actually criticized him for returning to Beijing for so long and had not entered the palace for pilgrimage.
He stuffed the imperial edict into his sleeves at will, and Zhu Wushi whispered: "Uncle Geng, prepare a horse."
At noon, Zhu Wushi entered the palace.
The Emperor's funeral was less than a year ago, and the Hongyou Hall was still hanging high with white cloth, and heavy snow filled the stone lions in front of the door. Zhu Wushi passed by this place and couldn't help but take a look. The place where he met with the new emperor today was the Imperial Study Room.
The imperial study room is not far from the altar, and the dead leaves of ancient sacred trees are scattered in the courtyard, with ancient sounds and colors, and a kind of Zen meaning.
Zhu Wushi walked into the main room while walking on the fallen leaves.
There are blue smoke curling in the house, and countless folding fans are hung on the wall. These are all famous wooden fans in the world. Among them, the wall is composed of five fans of Mr. Ouyang Chong, a former literary man, but it is missing a gentle and jade-like "Yangchun White Snow".
Emperor Wen Xuan was standing on his back under the wall and had been waiting for a long time.
It was cold and the earth was frozen, and Zhu Wushi exhaled a breath of white breath and closed the door and said, "My minister Zhu Wushi, attend Your Majesty."
Xiao Nianhe looked back, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and shook his head and said:
"Mr. Zhu doesn't have to be too polite. Since last year's separation, I feel like a different life. I heard that the Marquis has gained something in Beihai?"
Zhu Wushi shook his head: "It's just a few small opportunities. As His Majesty said, it's just over a year, but the capital seems to have changed."
Xiao Nianhe sat on a high sandalwood chair, compared the gesture of asking Zhu Wushi to sit, and held a warm tea ceremony: "Mr. Zhu, I remember that you were not alone in Beihai."
Zhu Wushi thought for a while, lightly tapped the chair handle with his fingers, and replied, "Lord Song has got some opportunities and is still in Beihai."
"Oh?" Xiao Nianhe raised his eyebrows and put down the teacup.
Looking at Zhu Wushi who was so close to him, Xiao Nianhe tightened his fur robe. As he was when he was a prince, he never cared about clothes. Now that he is the emperor, he does not deliberately take purple gold clothes.
"Zhu Wushi, I really want to know. Now that you see me sitting here, what do you think?" Xiao Nianhe asked suddenly.
Zhu Wushi looked at it, and after a moment of silence, he bowed and said, "The Zhu family has been a country for all generations, and they have no idea about you."
"Is that true?"
Xiao Nianhe smiled, his body leaned back against the back of the chair. The two were not very different in age. Although Xiao Nianhe ascended the throne for several months, he had risen to the majesty of the exclusive emperor.
But facing this young hero who had been cold-eyed for many years and was far away, the two did not look like monarchs and ministers, but a pair of peers who finally had the opportunity to talk face to face.
"Zhu Wushi, you should have heard that the world will be in chaos since the death of my father."
Zhu Wushi nodded and asked, "The Northern Territory is afraid of the late emperor's decisiveness. Now the late emperor dies early, and the binding force of the paper contract is naturally greatly reduced. The Northern Territory is suffering from monsters at this moment, and it is also a time when many tribes merge and form alliances. They suddenly become rebellious and have to be guarded."
"It's not that you are not careful." Xiao Nianhe narrowed his eyes: "The front line comes to report, the seven major clans in the northern border have dispersed, and half of them have left the Dingxian Mountains and headed to the side. The front line has been opened. This battle is only a matter of time."
Zhu Wushi was silent when he heard this. The ten years of peace he had just received were coming. Unexpectedly, in just two years, the forces in the northern border gathered in the northeast, but even the Moro City in the northwest was deploying defenses, which was in line with what Xiao Nianhe said.
"How is Your Majesty ready to deal with it?" Zhu Wushi asked.
Xiao Nianhe possessed her, supported her elbows and arms on the table, and said in a deep voice:
"This is the first priority after I ascended the throne. Although the northern border is a human race with me, I claim that the remnants of Taichu are very high in their opinion. If I enter the country without authorization, I will inevitably fight against the residents of the northern part of Dayuan. My Dayuan is the orthodox human race for thousands of years. If I did not go north to kill them, it would be even more impossible for me to be countered and the barbarians invade the country."
"If you want to fight, then fight happily, and the world will be determined by a fight!"
Xiao Nianhe's voice was strong and powerful. Zhu Wushi looked at it in a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Xiao Nianhe's old residence was so bloody that he could see things so clearly.
Yes, Zhu Wushi also believed that people from the north had been thriving in their blood. When they counted ahead to their ancestors, Taichu Kingdom was also a country that bullied the weak. Giving them a concession would only lead to greater losses.
but
Zhu Wushi frowned and said, "Your Majesty said very well, but now the ban on Fufei is about to be lifted. At this moment, the war with the North will inevitably have an irreversible impact on our human combat power. Is it really inevitable?"
Xiao Nianhe pondered for a moment when he heard this, but he didn't expect that his excitement could not resonate with Zhu Wushi, but instead he was asked about the pain.
Xiao Nianhe naturally has selfish intentions. The new emperor ascended the throne and established power requires a major support. What can make people look at the new emperor more differently than giving the Northern Territory a warning.
"What the Marquis said is, but the posture of the northern border has already appeared, so we must be prepared to be prepared for danger in times of peace." Xiao Nianhe nodded.
"Therefore, I will mobilize a large army to go to the north to guard the northern Cang and Bingzhou, and form a defense line with Dingxian Mountain and the northern cities. Even if I do not take the initiative, I will let the people in the north know the benefits and interests."
Zhu Wushi lowered his head, heard this, picked up the teacup without any trace, and blew and asked, "I wonder if this army is in your mouth?"
Xiao Nianhe pressed his finger against his lips, and the snow outside the window drifted into the house, and it had fallen on his shoulder for a moment. He observed Zhu Wushi's expression and spoke:
"I think that even if only half of the troops are sent, it is enough to be competent for this battle."
After finishing his words, Zhu Wushi put down his teacup and sighed.
"Your Majesty, King Gui goes north and the situation in the world is turbulent, and this is inappropriate."
Xiao Nianhe did not expect that when Zhu Wushi refuted it in person, he frowned and said with some displeasure: "Oh? Do you have any other choices?"
Zhu Wushi stood up, and Qingyan blurred his figure, but his voice was extremely clear: "I think that the 150,000 troops in the capital will not be weaker than the Southern Army of King Gui."
"But" Xiao Nianhe spread his hands: "The capital of the capital has no leader, and famous generals have been in power for three years. At this time, who is willing to go north to work hard?"
Zhu Wushi slowly walked forward, his hand reached into his sleeve, and slowly took out a few things, all of which were tokens and red tassels wrapped around it, which were the lieutenant generals, with different colors.
"I have met with the generals of the various ministries of the capital seven days after my return. Now that I have achieved my first-class success, they have already believed me."
Xiao Nianhe looked at these Linlang tokens and his voice trembled: "You!!"
Zhu Wushi bent down and bowed:
"Zhu Wushi, the Zhu family, petitioned to be king."
