Chapter 1130: Prince Candidate

The genius remembers “love ♂ go ÷ small? talk → net” in one second, and provide you with wonderful novels to read.

There is no “inner court” in Nanjing at the moment, but there is a supervisor of ceremonies. The **** in charge of Silijian was Pan Yinglong, the **** who took the initiative to go to Kuidong to persuade thirteen clans to attack Chongqing.

Pan Yinglong was originally Sili Bingbi of the Yongli court, and in his early years worked as a clerk in the Imperial Horse Supervisor in Beijing. After all, Gao Qiqian, the great **** of the Chongzhen Dynasty, was still his adoptive father. However, compared with his adoptive father, Gao Qiqian, Pan Yinglong has more national integrity that Gao does not possess. It is precisely because of this that after Emperor Dingwu ascended the throne in Nanjing, Zhou Shixiang made him the chief of ceremonies.

However, compared with his predecessors, Pan Yinglong, the chief **** in charge of India, does not live up to his name.

The Ming system, the cabinet voted, the ministers approved the red, and the internal and external checks and balances, so there was a distinction between the inner and outer courts. For a long time, the power of the imperial court was even heavier than that of the outer court, resulting in many eunuchs who were powerful for a while. Such as Liu Jin, Feng Bao, Wei Zhongxian and so on.

After Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, although he killed Wei Zhongxian, made a big case, and abolished the factory guards, the inner court could no longer compete with the outer court, but until Emperor Chongzhen hanged Meishan, the inner court still existed, but the power was not as good as before. That big. In the meantime, Wang Chengen and Gao Qiqian were also powerful for a while.

Although Zhou Shixiang, who had lived in two generations, did not discriminate against eunuchs, he did not like eunuchs intervening in politics, and he did not want to see a large number of eunuchs in the imperial city of Nanjing, so even if he had to reset a few inner court yamen, it was restored. Silijian is the head of the twenty-four yamen in the inner court, but compared with the past, the term “inner court” is no longer mentioned.

The military and political power of the Dingwu court has always been controlled by Zhou Shixiang’s Qi Wangfu, and now it is under the unified command of the Grand Governor’s Palace. Guo Zhiqi, the chief assistant of the cabinet, has no great power, and Pan Yinglong, the chief minister, has the seal. In terms of power alone, Pang Tianshou, the **** of the Yongli Dynasty who was killed a few years ago, is much more powerful than Pan.

After all, at that time, Yongli could still talk about the affairs of the imperial court. Even if he was regarded as a puppet by Sun Kewang for a few years, Emperor Yongli still had a certain position in the hearts of most Ming soldiers, which made Yongli somewhat still. Prestige, even with Pang Tianshou, the **** Si Li, can “fake the tiger’s prestige”. [Love ↑ go △ small ↓ say △ network WwW.AiQu]

However, when it came to Emperor Dingwu, except for the civil servants who had no power in Nanjing and only complained, the influence of this emperor in the army was pitiful. If anything, Wang Xing, Zhu Tong, and Guo Dengdi were the generals who joined the Taiping Army as “allies” in their early years. But calling these people to raise troops against Zhou Shixiang, I am afraid that they will also be powerless. As for Zhou Shixiang’s direct line, it is not just a Xiangshan Hou Jianghe who wants to add a yellow robe to him.

Ten days ago, Zhou Shixiang approached the imperial court and petitioned to restore the Grand Governor’s Mansion. Emperor Dingwu knew that he would not approve this memorial, and Zhou Shixiang would still restore the Grand Governor’s Mansion, but because of the matter in Nandu, he was still angry and suppressed the memorial. After Zuoshu was suppressed, Zhou Shixiang was better, and Shangshu no longer defended his purpose of restoring the Grand Governor’s Mansion and reorganizing the army for the Northern Expedition. He did not mobilize Zhou’s party to support Shangshu, but directly handled the matter.

Pan Yinglong heard that the sign of the Grand Governor’s Mansion had been hung up in Zhenjiang, and the original members of the Qi Prince’s Mansion and the Taiping Army’s military headquarters had all come to work in the Grand Governor’s Mansion. Official documents from all over the country are now sent to the Grand Governor’s Office in Zhenjiang. After the Grand Governor’s Office has read it, they will be copied and sent to the Nandu Cabinet. And under the official documents sent, all the comments on the disposal of the Grand Governor’s Office were noted. This made Guo Zhiqi, the chief assistant of the cabinet, very angry, because what is the difference between this kind of behavior and the “voting” power of the previous cabinet? Does it mean that from now on, the cabinet can be dispensed with, and the Grand Governor’s Office is directly the cabinet? If so, what is the Cabinet going to do? Better yet.

On the army side, Zhou Shixiang also made a big move. I heard that five new armies are going to be built, and what are the five commanders in charge of each war zone. All kinds of plans, including the candidates for the five major governors, were all handled by Zhou Shixiang, and Nandu couldn’t even ask questions. Combined with the public disclosure trend created by Gu Yanwu and Jin Yiwei’s arrest of the officials who contributed to this trend, Pan Yinglong was very worried that Zhou Shixiang would usurp the Ming Dynasty before he was destroyed.

If that’s the case, all Pan Yinglong can do is to try his best to save Emperor Dingwu’s life. If Zhou Shixiang wanted to kill the monarch, Pan Yinglong had no choice but to contact the Qin King of the loyal camp again. He talked to Hongbuyuan about this matter, and Hongbuyuan meant to wait and see, if Zhou Shixiang really followed the old path of Sun Kewang, their loyal ministers of Ming Dynasty could only part ways with him.

The first assistant Guo Zhiqi personally went to Zhenjiang two days ago to ask Zhou Shixiang what he wanted to do. This was not only Guo Zhiqi’s own intention, but also Emperor Dingwu’s intention.

Since Lian Chengbi was forced to leave Nanjing to go to Anhui to supervise military affairs and “died from illness”, Emperor Dingwu’s body and bones are also getting worse day by day. In the past few months, it has been rumored that the emperor’s dismissal from the court on the grounds of contracting an illness is a silent revolt against Zhou Shixiang. But Pan Yinglong knew very well that things were not what the outside world thought, but that the emperor was really sick.

Since last month, Emperor Dingwu’s eyesight has been getting worse and worse. When he was in Wencun, although Emperor Dingwu had poor eyesight, he could still see to some extent, but now, it was very difficult.

Emperor Dingwu knew what had happened recently in the foreign court. He had wanted to go to court, and he had also wanted to go to Zhenjiang to ask Zhou Shixiang what he wanted to do, but Guo Zhiqi and Pan Yinglong stopped him. Hong Yuao and Minister of War Zhang Huangyan also did not want the emperor to go to Zhenjiang, because if the emperor and Zhou Shi had a confrontation, there would be no way for the matter to be salvaged.

Zhang Huangyan did not believe that Zhou Shixiang would usurp the throne, but everything that happened now shows that Zhou Shixiang was strengthening his power and controlling the army and the court. The three major Jiangnan cases have almost wiped out half of the Jiangnan gentry. He still used the Jiangnan riot to launch a suppression of the rebellion, and the suppression of the rebellion is now spreading to the court. Every day, officials are arrested in the Nanzhen prison, and their life and death are unknown. Therefore, no matter how much Zhang Huangyan believes in Zhou Shixiang, he is a little shaken now. Since ancient times, the power that opposes oneself is removed from the court, but the usurper is best at it. As for those charges, it’s just a trick.

The result of Guo Zhiqi’s trip to Zhenjiang has become the most concerned thing in the Southern Metropolis Court. It’s just that no one knows now.

This morning, Emperor Dingwu, who was ill, suddenly summoned Pan Yinglong and asked him to deliver a box of precious fruits from Jiangxi to King Yongxing.

Pan Yinglong didn’t know the meaning of the emperor’s move, so he personally sent Zhen Guo to King Yongxing with doubts. Originally, Pan Yinglong thought that King Yongxing would care about his uncle’s condition, but he didn’t want the prince to ask when the emperor promoted him as a prince after seeing him. This made Pan Yinglong very stunned and disappointed, because this Yongxing King was really not someone who did big things.

Back in the prison, Pan Yinglong sat there and recalled the emperor’s recent attitude towards Prince Yongxing and Prince Zhu Cixuan of Yongli. He couldn’t help but wonder if the emperor was planning to appoint a prince, and the candidate for the prince was one of the two.

In terms of blood, King Yongxing is undoubtedly the best candidate for the prince. After all, he is the only male heir of Tang Fan now, and Emperor Dingwu was established by Zhou Shixiang, which means that Zhu Cixuan, the son of Yongli, cannot be under Zhou Shixiang and him. The Taiping Army accepted. There are rumors that the death of Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang may be related to Zhou Shixiang.

The performance of King Yongxing today really disappointed Pan Yinglong. The prince didn’t care about what happened in Nanjing now, nor how his uncle was sick, but only cared about when he would be promoted to the prince. How can such a person become the king of Daming, and how can he keep Daming from Zhou Shixiang?

Pan Yinglong hesitated to tell the emperor about King Yongxing’s performance, but in the end he didn’t do it. Which one the emperor wants to appoint as the crown prince is not something that his internal supervisor can interfere with, let alone whether the Ming Dynasty can still be preserved now. It may not be a good thing to be a prince.

Pan Yinglong was thinking, is it better to ask the empress to persuade the emperor, or to quickly marry the eldest princess. With the eldest princess in the middle, even if Zhou Shixiang couldn’t change his mind, at least it could drag on for a while for Daming and the emperor.

In the end, Pan Yinglong sighed and instructed someone to fetch the detailed account of the palace expenses for the past two months. When the little **** took the account book, Pan Yinglong laughed a little at himself, because I am afraid that the Ming generation will take the initiative to check the palace’s account of the cost of the Sili Zhangyin, and he is the only one.

Pan Yinglong was watching when he saw Song Chaoqin, the **** Bingbi, looking out from time to time, looking out from time to time.

Song Chaoqin was the **** of Shangbao who used to be in Fuzhou of Emperor Longwu, and he came to Nanjing from the Fujian countryside last year. Because he was the person that the eldest brother used in the past, Emperor Dingwu brought him into the Supervisor of Literacy and appointed him as Bingbi.

Hearing Pan Yinglong’s call, Song Chaoqin was startled, shook his head and said nothing.

“Didn’t see anything?”

Pan Yinglong was a little strange. He put down the account book and glanced outside, and found that everything was normal, and there was nothing wrong. But the more so, the more puzzled he felt.

Seeing this, Song Chaoqin hurriedly said, “Father-in-law, is there something wrong with this account book?”

“Well, there’s nothing wrong with it~www.readwn.com~ Pan Yinglong felt strange in his heart, but he didn’t think of anything for a while, so he didn’t think about it any more, holding the account book and turning a few pages.

As he was flipping through the pages, he heard the little eunuchs outside shouting: “Eunuch Lin!”, and then Lin Bao, the young supervisor who saw the imperial prisoner, hurriedly entered the room.

Lin Bao and Song Chaoqin had a good relationship, so when he saw him come in, Song Chaoqin said hello. Lin Bao nodded at him, then walked up to Pan Yinglong nervously, and said anxiously, “Did you hear the movement outside, Eunuch Pan?”

“Moving? What is it?” Pan Yinglong was startled.

Lin Bao looked around and said in a low voice, “Father-in-law doesn’t know anything. When I came back from outside the palace just now, I saw the pro-military surrounded the Imperial Court and the Sixth Division.”
