Chapter 488 Honors

The twenty-six-year-old Zhu Zanyi was the second generation of King Jingjiang. His grandfather Zhu Wenzheng was the nephew of Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.But in recent years, he has been in poor health and often ill in bed, so he feels that he can't live long.

At that time, 100,000 government troops on Guangxi were defeated and surrendered, and the rebels defeated the Japanese troops at the city of Guilin. The news had already reached the Jingjiang Palace.

But Zhu Zanyi had no concern about this. What he was most sad about was that his long-term illness would not be cured and his life was worrying. He still cares about the two uncles fighting for the throne?

At this moment, the chief seigner Xiao asked for his order to enter.When Xiao Yongdao saw Zhu Zanyi, he said: Prince, the governor Lei Tian wants to see him, and said he has something important to discuss.

I don’t care about Guilin Mansion’s affairs... Cough cough! What did he ask for this king? Zhu Zanyi frowned and said, "If it is related to the royal palace, Xiao Changshi will deal with it for me."

Xiao Yongdao was a civil servant in the Jianwen Dynasty. Later, he surrendered to Emperor Yongle and was sent to the Prince Jingjiang Mansion of Guilin to be the chief minister.

Zhu Zanyi knew that Xiao Yongdao's background was definitely responsible for monitoring him, but last year, Emperor Yongle passed away, and now Zhu Zanyi's health is also very poor, so she doesn't want to care about those things anymore.

According to the opinions of the lower officials, Lei Tian meant that he wanted to persuade the prince to leave Guilin.In this way, he could use the excuse to escort the prince and take the opportunity to escape from Guilin.Xiao Yongdao said directly.

Zhu Zanyi said a little angry: I won’t go anywhere!Instead of dying on the road, why didn’t I die at my own home? He was going to run away, so what did I do?Zhu Zanyi gasped for a while and said, "The King of Han, the leader of the rebel army, I have to call him uncle. What if he doesn't do with me, my half-dead nephew?"

Xiao Yongdao listened carefully and said calmly: But Prince, you have to think about the way out for the two princes.

Although Zhu Zanyi was in poor health, she was still very clear at this time and suddenly understood what Xiao Yongdao meant.

Although Zhu Zanyi is about to die, the Jingjiang Palace will continue, so he will face a choice until his death.

If Zhu Zanyi chose the wrong person, the Jingjiang Palace might not have been abolished, because no emperor wants to be a bad name and be mean and rude to Zhu Wenzheng's lineage; but the problem is that Zhu Zanyi has eight younger brothers!

The court has many choices.

What good advice does Changshi Xiao have?The disapproving look on Zhu Zanyi's face disappeared and she asked very seriously.

Xiao Yongdao was chosen by Emperor Taizong, but after Emperor Taizong passed away, he might not be loyal to anyone; so Xiao Yongdao's suggestions can still be heard.

It is of great importance, and the lower officials dare not speak lightly, but... Xiao Yongdao leaned over and whispered, "The lower officials have a plan."The prince was unwilling to leave Guilin, and just said he was ill. If you have two princes, choose one to stay, and the other would fill it back to the capital with Lei.What do you think?

Will it be unpleasant to both ends?Zhu Zanyi asked.

Xiao Yongdao shook his head and said: Just don’t publicly make enemies with one side, then there should be no major problems.Since the prince stayed in Guilin Mansion, it would be better to send his eldest son to the capital.

Ask Lei Tian to come in and meet.Zhu Zanyi said.

After waiting for a long time, the governor of Guangxi Lei Tian was taken to the bedroom of King Jingjiang.Zhu Zanyi had already gotten up and was sitting weakly on a thick chair.

...Lei Tian was a pale-faced civil servant. He was bowing forward at this time and could not hide his worried expression.

Governor Lei Tian himself was a central official in charge of the court; the court sent him a Beijing official to the governor of Guangxi to supervise the local government so that they would not surrender too easily.

Now that the capital of a province is about to offer the city, he Lei Tian doesn't want to stay and urge officials and people to defend the city, but he wants to run away quickly... Such things are indeed easy to be impeached!

So Lei Tian thought of King Jingjiang.

After seeing the ceremony, he couldn't wait to persuade: The Marquis of Jiangyin was defeated, and many officials surrendered.But there are also loyal and brave men who are loyal and brave to the emperor and will never stop until death!These people just returned to Guilin Mansion and were brave and good at fighting with sincerity, and would be able to escort the prince to the capital successfully.

My life is not long.Zhu Zanyi suddenly said something.

Lei Tian was stunned for a moment.

Zhu Zanyi said: This king’s body cannot travel a long distance, alas!If you want to leave Guilin Mansion, you will die on the road.Besides, I can't bear to part with the hundreds of beauties I have loved in the palace.After doing this, Governor Lei took away his eldest son Zuo Jing and his wife Geng.

Lei Tian was immediately overjoyed when he heard this!His face turned red with excitement... If he could escort the eldest son of King Jingjiang from here, it would be the same as escorting King Jingjiang himself.

He hurriedly bowed happily: Prince is wise.Among the soldiers who came back from the front line, Geng Hao, the Marquis of Jiangyin, and the same surname as Mrs. Geng, who might be relatives, would do their best to protect the safety of Mrs. Prince.

Zhu Zanyi frowned and said: I heard that after Marquis of Jiangyin was knocked out, he brought him to the King of Han and surrendered.He sn in law won't surrender?

Lei Tian almost patted his chest and said: Prince, don’t worry, General Geng has great loyalty, otherwise he would not have to go back to the city, and he would follow Wu Gao’s people to surrender on the battlefield.

It makes sense.Zhu Zanyi nodded.

Lei Tian couldn't help but urged: The rebel king's army is less than a hundred miles away from Guilin Prefecture; its cavalry vanguard may arrive early.At this critical moment, the officials and others dare not neglect at all, so as not to fall into danger.I hope the prince will order the prince to pack his bags as soon as possible, and we will set off today!

Zhu Zanyi said: One hour later, you will ask the official guards to come to the north gate of the royal palace to pick up people.

Lei Tian said: The official obeys the order, please say goodbye.

...In less than an hour, Geng Hao, Lei Tian and other teams came to the gatehouse of the Jingjiang Palace and waited.

Before, when Jiangyin Marquis Wu Gao led the troops, Geng Hao did not have any military power.

Because his father-in-law felt that he had no experience in fighting formations and was afraid of making bad things, he asked him to do things like conveying military orders in the central army; at the same time, he increased his knowledge and marching and formation.

But now Geng Hao transformed himself and immediately surpassed all the generals of the remnants of the remnants of the city, and became the actual leader of the remnants; because of the recognition of the Governor of Guangxi and other officials.

Those cavalry soldiers and horses had military generals, but they were all low-level military generals; the governor Lei Tian knew no one. In comparison, Lei Tian was more willing to believe in nobles from good backgrounds, such as Geng Hao... the famous founding hero, Changxing Hou, the legitimate grandson of Jiangyin Hou, Wu Gao, the sn in law!

Although Changxing Hou had his family destroyed and Jiangyin Hou surrendered to the rebels, in the eyes of the officialdom, Geng Hao was still more reliable than ordinary military families.

After waiting for a long time, a fleet of carriages and horses came out of the gatehouse of the royal palace.

At this time, Geng Hao heard Lei Tian speak in a deep voice: We have to walk faster, so those carriages are burdensome!But let’s not speak for now. After leaving the city, we will advise the people from the Jingjiang Palace to abandon their car and board a horse.

Geng Hao nodded quickly and bowed with his fists.

Lei Tian saw that the nobles respected him so much, and his face looked very useful.Although Geng Hao has lived like a broken dog in recent years, he couldn't help but think in his heart: Aristocrats are nobles!

The chariot and horses approached the cavalry team, and a civil servant came up to greet each other, and everyone greeted each other for a few words.

At this moment, the curtains of a luxurious carriage were lifted open, and a young lady inside showed her face; looking in through the window, there was a few-year-old boy wearing a dragon robe.

It seems that the woman is Geng, one of the wives of King Jingjiang, and the child is Zhu Zuojing, the eldest son of King Jingjiang.

General Geng heard that the Marquis of Jiangyin was coerced by the soldiers and surrendered to the rebel king.I have something that should not be asked, I hope I won’t blame it.Why don’t you go there with Jiangyin Hou?Geng asked softly, as she seemed worried.

These noble ladies in the royal palace hardly leave the palace gate, and they must be relatively brave when traveling far away.

When Geng Hao was suddenly asked, he immediately thought of his cousin Mu Zhen. His delicate and handsome face is so beautiful and graceful figure is so attractive, and his laughter is like a bell and a fairy!

Moreover, before the King of Han appeared, they were obviously very compatible with each other, so the previous generations decided on beautiful things, and they were in love with each other and had no guesses.

Until the lustful person appears, it completely ruins everything.

When Geng Hao thought of Mu Zhen being stolen, he might have even taken the initiative to throw himself into his arms and give his smooth and white skin to others to touch, Geng Hao's heart was bleeding.

He could not control the unbearable scene. Mu Zhen was breathing under someone else and was subjected to the willful ravage of the strong man. She was not only shameless but also intoxicated!

Thinking of her cousin's voice so nicely, but she spit out dirty words. At this time, Geng Hao felt mixed feelings and was simply angry.

He not only hated the King of Han, but also hated Mu Zhen; he was so kind to Mu Zhen, but what he got was betrayal!Betrayal is really the sharp sword that hurts the most.

At this moment, Geng Hao hated all the women and secretly called them all sluts!Just as the saint said, it is difficult for women and villains to raise.

Geng Hao couldn't kneel down to such an enemy. Whenever he thought of the scene of surrender and the inner shame, he would penetrate into his bones.So how could he surrender to the King of Han?

But he doesn't need to tell the old things.

Geng Hao calmed down and clasped his fists and said: Going back to the words of his wife, although his grandfather was a Changxing Marquis who was good at fighting, he read the books of sages since childhood and understood loyalty, filial piety and righteousness.In the world, loyalty to the king is the best, and loyal ministers are the best. How can one ignore the righteousness because of personal feelings?

good!Geng couldn't help but praise him. General Geng was born in a prominent family, well-educated, well-off, and well-off. He was also a famous talent. He was truly a good minister of the saint and the country was very lucky!

Although he knew that the lady was just saying good things, Geng Hao still felt very comfortable in his ears. He immediately said with politeness: Madam is over-reputation.Don't worry, I will swear to protect my wife and the prince to the death and live up to the trust of King Jingjiang.

Mrs. Geng nodded in praise and gently lowered the curtain.

Lei Tian ordered: No time to go, set off!
