Chapter 20 Chapter 20 A New Beginning

When Zhu Houzhao died, the busiest person was Yang Tinghe. To be fair, although Mr. Wang Shouren is a rare sage throughout the ages, he is not a figure in charge of the current situation. He has been a cadre sent by the central government for a long time, and basically does not hang out in the capital.In those years, the person who really supported the overall situation of the country was Yang Tinghe. On that late night in March in the 16th year of Zhengde (1521), when the news of the death of the emperor came, Yang Tinghe was not sad. This was not because he had no feelings for his students. In fact, he had no time to mourn .

On that stormy night, he met two panicked people, one was Gu Dayong and the other was Zhang Yong. The purpose of their visit is very simple, only to discuss one question - who will be the emperor? Brother Zhu Houzhao is really uninteresting. After having enough fun, he patted his ass and left. You are relieved, but the brothers who are left after suffering, such a big stall, you should leave someone to take over! Due to playing too hard, Emperor Zhu didn't have a child (how come this time), but Daming Kingdom can't live without an emperor, Zhang Yong also panicked now, although he holds great power, he is only an eunuch after all, what should he do? I have no idea, so I can only run to find Yang Tinghe.

Compared to their panic, Mr. Yang Tinghe was as stable as Mount Tai. Facing Zhang Yong's eager gaze, he just said lightly: "Brother ends up with brother, someone will naturally take over the throne." So who is this person who takes over the throne? "Son of King Xingxian, grandson of Emperor Xianzong, son of Emperor Xiaozong, younger brother of Emperor Daxing." Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong breathed a sigh of relief. Please note that the above is not about four people, but one person. After all, the family is a royal family, and the three generations of ancestors must be clearly stated. You must know that in order to verify Mr. Liu Bei's status after King Jing of Zhongshan, the length of the genealogy was found out. Comparable to a college dissertation.

This lucky man with four identities is named Zhu Houcong.He is the Jiajing Emperor who reigned the longest in the history of the Ming Dynasty. At this time, Yang Tinghe naturally liked the heir to the throne he had chosen very much, but he would change his opinion in the near future. Of course, this was after all. But now, looking at Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong, who looked relaxed and boldly preparing for a promotion, Yang Tinghe put on a straight face: "It's not over yet." Yes, this big drama during the Zhengde period was still short of the final scene. And the protagonist of this last scene is Mr. Jiang Bin. He solved Qian Ning, but failed to bring down Wang Shouren.

Now he will face his new opponent - Yang Tinghe. Soon, Yang Tinghe issued an order to disband the battalion formed by Zhu Houzhao and controlled by Jiang Bin, and disarmed him. Then he issued an order to let Zhang Yong, Guo Xun and others control the defense of the capital, and strictly prohibited any army transfer. Obviously, this is about to be done. The capital quickly fell into a precarious situation. Rumors and rumors were flying everywhere. Jiang Bin, who has always been arrogant, suddenly lost his feet and panicked. Can discuss countermeasures with friends every day. There seemed to be quite a few people joining in the fun. One day not long after, Zhang Hong, the governor of the Beijing Army, suddenly went to Yang Tinghe's house late at night and reported something.

"Jiang Bin and his gang are moving around now. They may rebel, and the chief assistant must be on guard!" Zhang Hong reminded Yang Tinghe in a worried tone. However, Yang Tinghe disagreed: "You don't have to be afraid of Jiang Bin's rebellion. How can he rebel today? Besides, even if he wants to rebel, his subordinates won't follow him. Don't worry too much. In my opinion, Jiang Bin will never rebel! " Looking at the resolute Yang Tinghe, Zhang Hong sighed and left.Seeing him off behind his back was Yang Tinghe's meaningful eyes. He left Yang Tinghe's mansion, but did not go home, but went to another person's residence - Jiang Bin.

This Zhang Hong was Jiang Bin's confidant. He was ordered to inquire about the news, and he was assured that nothing happened for the time being. Jiang Bin finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, Yang Tinghe called Jiang Mian and Mao Ji in the cabinet to prepare a seamless plan. Soon, Jiang Bin received a notice that he was invited to participate in a ceremony. It turned out that the palace was going to be repaired. According to the regulations, a memorial ceremony must be held first (feudal superstition kills people), and his brother was also invited. In Jiang Bin's view, this was a very honorable thing, so he went.

Mr. Jiang Bin has done many bad things in his life and harmed many people. It is not too much to describe it as full of evil. Now it is finally time to repay the debt and pay the interest. The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and you have to pay back your debts. Jiang Bin went out with a large group of entourage and went straight to the palace, but when he arrived at the gate of the palace, the guards informed him that he could only go in alone to participate in the ceremony, and no one else was allowed to enter. Jiang Bin argued for a while, but he didn't say anything more when it came to procedural regulations.Abandoning all his subordinates, he entered the palace alone.

It can also be seen from here that Mr. Jiang Bin is really not a person who has read books. You must know that this trick has been used since ancient times and has been tried and tested. Empress Lu, and Zhu Di as close as they are, are long-term and stable users of this trick. Now there is another name on the user list - Yang Tinghe. Jiang Bin entered the palace, finished the ceremony, and was about to withdraw, but Zhang Yong suddenly stopped him, saying that he wanted to invite him to dinner. Zhang Yong's face had to be given, so Jiang Bin went with him, but before the dinner, a minister suddenly jumped out on the way and told Jiang Bin not to leave, and there was a decree from the Queen Mother. you.

Although Jiang Bin didn't study, he wasn't an idiot either. He looked at Zhang Yong, who had malicious intentions, and then at the minister who was about to read out his will, and immediately made an accurate judgment. After all, Jiang Bin was a military commander. He broke free from Zhang Yong's hand and ran away, but Zhang Yong didn't chase after him, but just looked at his leaving figure coldly. Since you like sports, let you run more. So Mr. Jiang Bin started the last long-distance running of his life.Facts have proved that although Mr. Jiang Bin often does bad things, his physical fitness is quite good. He first ran to the Xi'an Gate, but the gate was closed long ago.It is estimated that this brother has never learned to pick locks, and his skills in climbing walls are not good enough, so he slapped his thigh and ran!

Jiang Bin's long-distance running quality is really not covered. Running at full speed, he quickly ran to Bei'anmen (clockwise). When he arrived, no one pinched his watch and handed him a towel, but there were a group of eunuchs waiting for him. with him. "Jiang Dudu, don't run away anymore, I have an order for you!" Jiang Bin had quite a sense of humor, and he replied while running: "Where is there any purpose today!" Then a new scene appeared, Jiang Bin was running in front, and a group of eunuchs were chasing behind. It is estimated that Mr. Jiang was also tired from running, and was slowly overtaken by the eunuchs behind, so everyone rushed up, ending Mr. Jiang Bin's attempt to break the The fantasy of track and field records in the Ming Dynasty. I don't know if it was because the eunuchs were too excited or because of their psychological problems. According to historical records, after Mr. Jiang Bin was arrested, he didn't suffer much physically, but his beard was ripped clean. The last power traitor in the Zhengde period ended his life in this comic way.Overall, the performance is quite good. Yang Tinghe finally solved all his opponents. He indeed verified Qiu Jun's prophecy, and now the country is under his control alone. In the more than forty days since Emperor Zhengde passed away, there was no emperor in the Ming Empire, and the only one who kept his word was Mr. Yang, who finally found the man named Zhu Houcong after thousands of choices among the royal descendants. This person was chosen for two reasons: For one, he was very close in blood and was said to be very intelligent and very quick-witted. The second reason is that it is not easy to tell. The child was only fifteen years old at the time. For Yang Tinghe, a veteran official, he was a relatively easy-to-control person. The first half of Yang Tinghe's life was very smooth. He defeated Liu Jin and Jiang Bin, and Wang Shouren was also beaten up by him. Words like old fritters and old foxes are no longer enough to describe his wisdom and cunning. But this time he miscalculated, who said it was easy to control at a young age?You must understand that the sage once said: The future is awesome, how can you know that the future is not like the present! On April 23rd in the 16th year of Zhengde (1521), the shy young man Zhu Houcong came to the capital and became the new emperor. The brilliant prospects and future of the invincible Mr. Yang Tinghe will be ruined in his hands.
