Chapter 163, the imperial party's counterattack
The residence of the Duke of England is now five steps per post, ten steps per whistle, and thousands of elite guards in armor are here.
Since the news of the cabinet's participation in regicide came, the nobles have gathered to seek a solution to the aftermath.
Puyang Hou Liu Huanran said indignantly: "Duke Zhang, now there are rioters and traitors who commit rebellion and kill the lord. We will receive the emperor's kindness in the world. We must not allow them to continue to be rampant!"
Zhang Lun nodded. The noble group is truly in harmony with the Ming Dynasty and the country. Although they have been suppressed by the civil servant group in recent years, they cannot allow the regicide in any case.
Even the playboys who usually linger in the fireworks and wine alleys rushed over with their servants at this moment, which is enough to prove the seriousness of the matter.
In terms of simply being in the capital, the noble group is not weaker than the civil servant group. No matter how deserted the Beijing camp is, it is the largest armed force in the imperial city.
Unlike civil officials who wished Zhengde could die immediately, the noble group had a complete view of the emperor. Everyone hated Zhu Houzhao's arbitrary behavior, and liked the emperor's desire to revitalize military preparations.
Now that the emperor is dead, there is also news that the cabinet is involved in the regicide, the noble group naturally can't sit still.
"It is easy to take down the capital, but the key is the aftermath. The emperor suddenly died suddenly and the prince was not left behind. Who should I support to succeed the throne?"
Frankly speaking, Zhang Lun really didn't want such a contribution to support. The British Duke had already reached its peak, and the previous generations of British Duke were posthumously named king after their deaths.
But the current situation cannot tolerate him retreating. As the head of the nobles, he cannot sit idly by and watch the "regicide cabinet" take power no matter what.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Just as everyone was hesitating for the heirs, an eunuch suddenly appeared in the hall with an imperial edict, which scared everyone.
Seeing the visitor clearly, Zhang Lun exclaimed: "Eunuch Wang, you are out of the mountain!"
As a British Duke with a high position and power, even when Liu Jin was the most arrogant, he never saw Zhang Lu give him face.
Now that he respects a eunuch so much, some older nobles quickly awakened the memories that had been sleeping in his mind for a long time, and then his face changed drastically.
The old eunuch replied calmly: "Now there are rebellions and colluding with officials to murder the emperor, so our family has to come."
After the cabinet was determined to participate in the regicide, the power of loyalty to the royal family would naturally not give up. The nobles could not agree, and the eunuchs were even more afraid to agree.
Otherwise, after the civil servant group took power, they were the first to be unlucky. Originally, these disputes had little to do with the retired old eunuch, but a copy of imperial edict stored by Zhu Houzhao forced him to leave the mountain.
After recovering, Zhang Lun asked rationally: "Dare you ask me, is this imperial edict left by the late emperor?"
The old eunuch nodded and said bitterly: "Yes, three months ago, the emperor found our house and threw me a strange imperial edict.
I thought the emperor was very entertained, but I didn’t expect it to be used so soon.”
The British Duke Zhang Lun nodded and said with a serious expression: "I will not hide it from my father-in-law, I also have a special imperial edict here."
While speaking, Zhang Lun had already taken out the imperial edict from his sleeve.
The atmosphere inside became tense instantly. The imperial edict of the late emperor was the legal basis for everyone to take action. Now everyone is afraid that naughty children will play with something.
After comparing the two, Zhang Lun and the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Looking at the nervous expressions, Zhang Lun spoke: "The content is the same. The late emperor was ordered to quell the rebellion in the court, kill the aristocratic families, and make the King of Xiangyang Zhu Houwei the crown prince."
The world of martial arts is different from history. With unscientific things like internal strength, Zhu Houwei, who should have died prematurely, miraculously survived.
As Zhu Houzhao's only younger brother, Zhu Houwei was the first heir when his elder brother had no son.
Everyone present could accept this result. Although it was just a crown prince, the crown prince should have succeeded to the throne when the emperor received a lunch box.
The only troublesome thing is to destroy the aristocratic families, but those guys dared to act boldly and rudely, so there is nothing to say. No matter how difficult it is, it must be wiped out.
The old eunuch gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Zhang, since there is no problem with the imperial edict, please send troops immediately to the palace to serve the king and eliminate those traitors."
He was directly charged with the crime of traitors, and it was obvious that the old eunuch had extremely disgusted with the bastards in the cabinet.
Even if you do not participate in the conspiracy of regicide, just delaying the emperor's time for injury, you can also be killed by nine clans.
Whether there is subjective intention does not matter at this time. Those who are ministers do not care about the body of the monarch and only know that they deserve it if they fight for power and profit.
It was just that the civil servant group controlled the right to speak, which made Zhang Lun hesitate for a moment. However, this hesitation did not change the result.
"All the soldiers obey orders and follow me into the palace to serve the king. Anyone who dares to stop them will be killed without mercy!"
I have no time to care about my reputation during my lifetime and after my death. No matter how the Zhu family treats others, I have never treated him badly.
Eat the king's salary and share his worries. The British Duke's lineage is worthy of that glory, and it can be regarded as a dedication to maintaining the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
Even in the late Chongzhen period, the last generation of British Duke did not have any achievements, at least they accompanied Chongzhen to sacrifice their lives.
He bowed to Zhang Lun, and the old eunuch changed his tone: "Mr. Zhang, our family will also go to inform the Zongren Mansion, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang, so we won't be left behind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man took the imperial edict in his hand and disappeared without a trace. His speed was as fast as Dongfang Bubai.

Top of Mount Hua
Looking at the strange imperial edict in his hand, Li Mu was speechless. He clearly put the list, why not take action first?
Looking at Gu Dayong, who was dressed in rags, Li Mu was much more polite this time: "Eunuch Gu, since Your Majesty had known that the great family might take risks, why would he still be hit?"
Seeing Gu Dayong in a dilemma, Li Mu knew that there was something unspeakable, so he no longer felt embarrassed.
"Forget it, Li has taken this imperial edict. My father-in-law can rest assured that as long as these people on the list can be found, they will definitely go down to see the late emperor within a year!"
Killing people is simple. As long as you can find it, there will be no one in the world that Li Dazhen can't kill.
These guys were unlucky, and Zhu Houzhao's bid was too generous. He directly compared the treatment of Duke Mu and directly asked him to the northwest of Li Dazhen Renshi Town.
To be frank, from the perspective of funeral, the royal family did not lose at all.
The northwest is the largest powder keg of the Ming Dynasty. The endless natural disasters and man-made disasters may cause chaos at any time and devour the entire Ming Dynasty.
Throwing this trouble to Li Dazhen can save at least one million taels of military expenditure every year, and continue the national destiny for the Ming Dynasty for a century.
If Zhu Houzhao hadn't been dead, Li Mu would have suspected that this guy was a time traveler and directly threw out the biggest troubles of the Ming Dynasty.
Even though he knew it was a trouble, Li Mu could not refuse. The foundation of the Huashan Sect was in Guanzhong, and it was originally a loss of both the northwest, and both the loss of both the loss of both the prosperity.
Seeing Li Mu received the imperial edict, Gu Dayong was delighted and then said, "There is another thing that needs to be troubled by the real person. The King of Xiangyang was poisoned. Please help me."
When Li Mu heard "save people", he was slightly stunned and refused and said, "Did you make a mistake? Li's medical skills are mediocre. If you want to find someone to detoxify, please find another famous doctor!"
As a lazy person, he was obviously dreaming when he asked him to go to Xiangyang to save people. Even if that person was the future emperor, Li Mu didn't want to have anything to do with him.
The power of saving the Lord seems to be very great, but it depends on who it is targeted. For Li Mu, the emperor's excessive closeness is not a good thing.
With the strange traditions of the Ming Dynasty royal family, wouldn’t it be a shattering thing if a guy seeks immortality come to him and ask him to refine the elixir of immortality?
Qin Emperor and Han Wu could not resist the temptation of immortality in their later years, let alone an ordinary emperor. When it really came to that point, it was the ugliest scene in human nature.
"Real person, we have found many famous doctors, but there is no way. In the end, Master Zhang Tian of Longhu Mountain took action to suppress the spread of toxins, but the King of Xiangyang still couldn't hold on for long.
Taoist Master Chongxu recommended the real person. It is said that Zixia's magical power has reached the pinnacle of the ultimate state, and it has a very good healing effect.
The real person has a mysterious skill. If he is willing to take action, he will definitely be able to capture it. The King of Xiangyang has already reached the foot of the mountain, but the mountain road is bumpy. Please move the real person..."
While speaking, Gu Dayong knelt down directly. The expression was like the poisoned one was his parents and needed treatment urgently.
He dragged Gu Dayong with his internal force, and Li Mu greeted Taoist Chongxu's family deep in his heart.
It would be fine if Wudang and the court had sex, but no one could withstand the sugar-coated cannonballs in this regard.
It is a bit too much to reveal that his Zixia magical power is used to heal the wound. Using the power to force people to force poison is a very consuming internal energy.
Although the innate master has strong internal strength, it will not take one shot and will exhaust all his strength, and it will take several years to recover.
However, it is inevitable that the practice of ten days and half a month will be delayed. If the toxicity is too strong, it needs to protect the heart meridians and consume more internal energy.
Li Mu said angrily: "Okay, don't kneel down. After all, he is a big shot in the Silijian. If you spread it, you won't be afraid of people's jokes."
