Women's clothing in the Ming Dynasty

A thick bandage was wrapped around Zhu Houcong's neck, and he leaned weakly on the chair, like a castrated rooster.The ministers on the side were all frightened and asked for help, after all, the appearance of shouting for help with blood on the neck was too scary.Only Li Chengfeng had black lines on his face, he knew very well that it was just scratches, this kid always did.

After the assassin was captured, he didn't say a word, and the Yizhan Yicheng and other handymen were so shocked that they were sweating profusely.According to them, this assassin has been working in Yicheng for three years. He is usually diligent and timid, and he can't tell that he is a martial arts master.

Li Chengfeng nodded secretly, but he didn't pay attention at first.It wasn't until the assassin brought the food, although he hid his murderous intent very well, but his light steps and calm eyes did not match his short stature at all, so he paid attention and rescued Zhu Houcong in time.

Gu Dayong was furious, and immediately wanted to lead a team to Kaifeng Mansion to mobilize troops, and it was bound to surround the place.Li Chengfeng hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but he slapped his head and face: "Bold! Your lord just met an assassin, and you still dare to stop our family? Are you trying to put his old man in danger! I think you might be the one with him!" That gang of people!"

"Kang Dang!" A teacup was smashed at his feet, and Zhu Houcong was so angry that his face turned blue. He couldn't bear it anymore. He was going to kill this nonsense dog slave today. !

Li Chengfeng stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve, beckoned to be calm, turned around and said, "Eunuch Gu, it's getting late now, it will take several hours to go back and forth to the city, and I'm afraid it will be dawn by then. Yes. Although an assassin has been caught, but the enemy is in the dark, there may be some other tricks. It is really not a wise move for you to divide your troops into two groups now."

As soon as this remark was made, it was immediately unanimously approved by the people around. Zhang Heling, Marquis of Shouning, couldn't care less, and rolled his eyes and said: "I think Master Jinghua's words are reasonable. In the end, it was not Eunuch Gu who proposed to come to the post station to rest the lord." You will be assassinated, if you don’t pay off your merits and come to serve me honestly, don’t make any more fools.”

Gu Day was so angry that he gave him a vicious look, gritted his teeth, and said to the guard next to him: "Why are you still standing there! Quickly take out the things in the assassin's mouth, our family will interrogate the one who killed a thousand swords! "

At this time, Li Chengfeng happened to be checking the assassin's dagger. He didn't pay attention to this side for a while, but when he looked back and saw that the assassin was able to speak, he immediately shouted: "No! Shut his mouth!"

But it was too late, the assassin smiled coldly, then bit the poison hidden in his teeth, and died within a short moment.

Gu Dayong was dumbfounded. Even though he had been in charge of Xichang, he had interrogated many people.But most of them are officials and civilians who were framed by him. Where have I seen such a professional killer.Zhu Houcong was so angry that he couldn't speak at this time, he waved his hand weakly, telling the dead eunuch to stay away from him.He is starting to sympathize with his cousin Emperor Zhengde now, he must be living a miserable life surrounded by such idiots!

Seeing that the assassin was dead and the clues were broken, everyone had to go back to the house to rest.Li Chengfeng was really worried, so he proposed to share a room with Zhu Houcong.Mao Cheng hesitated to speak, but finally felt that the safety of the new emperor was more important, so he didn't object.Zhu Houcong blushed, nodded in agreement shyly.

Entering the dormitory, Zhu Houcong turned his face away and said, "Let Huang Jin move a bed later."

"Ah? No need." Li Chengfeng was taken aback by what he said.

Zhu Houcong blushed even more, and shyly said: "That, that's okay, you can sleep in it, I'm afraid that you will fall if you don't sleep well."

Li Chengfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, what was this kid thinking, "Pindao won't sleep tonight, just watch here, it will be the same when you get on the car tomorrow to make up the payment." , What do you think, my lord?"

Suppressing the inexplicable disappointment in his heart, Zhu Houcong said: "It's nothing more than a few groups of people, either because of the jealousy of other feudal lords, who think they have a chance if they kill me. Anyone who can control the itinerary is not surprising. And..." He hesitated.

Li Chengfeng wondered, "What else?"

"It may also be the actions of the ministers in the court. I heard that this king is not easy to control, so I plan to kill and install another. Or simply, it is the Queen Mother Zhang..."

"Stop!" Li Chengfeng was speechless, and he could only say that Emperor Jiajing had conspired so quickly, so he quickly explained: "You think too much, first of all, it's only been a long time, and you haven't had any conflicts with them." , it is not enough to let the minister take the risk of killing the emperor. As for the Queen Mother Zhang, it is even more impossible. Don’t forget that Shou Ninghou Ke is in the imperial envoy team. With the Queen Mother Zhang’s protection of his younger brother, he will not let him take this risk. dangerous."

Although he was reluctant, Zhu Houcong had to admit that what the other party said made sense, so he temporarily put the matter aside, said a few words, and then fell into a deep sleep under Li Chengfeng's care.

At dawn on the second day, everyone set off early under the instructions of Mr. Liang Chu and Liang Ge, and took the official route, striving to enter Beijing as soon as possible. This time, Gu Dayong did not dare to make a fuss anymore. one.

Fortunately, not long after walking, they encountered a large group of soldiers and horses.It turned out that Empress Dowager Zhang was worried about changes. For the safety of the heir, the right servant of the dispatched military department led three thousand troops to meet Zhu Houcong in the suburbs of Beijing.This move was very necessary. Under their escort, the panic-stricken team immediately settled down, and Li Chengfeng was able to take a breath and relax his tense nerves.

Soon, on April 21st, the brigade finally arrived at Liangxiang County, the gateway to the southwest of Beijing. This place can be regarded as a must-see for officials from Shanxi, Shaanxi and Huguang to report their duties in Beijing, so the post house was built very large. totally accommodate them.

Although spring has begun in Beijing in April, the cold wind is still strong.So much so that Zhu Houcong, who grew up in the middle of Anlu, sneezed several times as soon as he arrived, scaring the people around him to call the imperial doctor for pulse.

The people of Liangxiang on this day were eye-opening. The whole Liangxiang was full of traffic and voices. When did they see so many high-ranking officials that Liangxiang people still brag to their friends many years later.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites had been waiting for the arrival of the new emperor here a few days ago, and when they saw Zhu Houcong, they hurriedly saluted and greeted him.First, he said a lot of flattering words, which made Zhu Houcong feel a little flustered, and then he got down to business, took out a thick book from his sleeve, and began to explain to the new emperor the etiquette of entering the palace tomorrow.Li Chengfeng listened embarrassingly in the background. Is this the cue process in the legend.

According to the instructions of the Ministry of Rites, the whole process was divided into three steps. First, Zhu Houcong had to enter from the Dong'an Gate of the imperial city, and then lived in the Wenhua Palace.After arriving at the Wenhua Palace, the officials persuaded him to enter the table.

The so-called persuasion form, in Li Chengfeng's view, is all vain stuff.It probably means that now that the Emperor Daxing is dead, you are wise and powerful, and you will be established in order, and all officials will invite Zhu Houcong to be the emperor together.When it was over, Zhu Houcong had to decline twice, until he was persuaded to enter three times, he could "sacrifice himself" "reluctantly", saying that since no one wants to be this emperor, then I will be the emperor for the sake of the world!

Li Chengfeng couldn't help but not laugh out loud. At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind, and that was that if King Ning was still alive and heard these words, he would probably vomit blood with anger.

In the end, the Empress Dowager Zhang will issue a decree and choose a good day to ascend the throne.

As soon as this schedule came out, Li Chengfeng, a layman, naturally didn't think there was anything wrong.The officials welcoming the new emperor were in an uproar. Even Mao Cheng, the Minister of Rites, was dumbfounded, and quickly asked, "Who made this watch? Why don't I know?"

The Ministry of Rites respectfully replied: "Master Mao, this was drafted by the cabinet and finalized by Mr. Yang Ge. I also consulted the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager also agreed." Mao Cheng was speechless for a while.

Zhu Houcong was staring at the schedule, his mind went blank, how could this be?He even thought he had heard it wrong, so he pulled it out to look at it twice, and finally threw it aside after confirming that it was correct.It had to be said that it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head, completely waking him up.

He has read poetry and books since he was a child, and recently under the guidance of Mao Cheng, he is familiar with various court etiquettes. Every place in the Forbidden City performs its own duties, and the enthronement ceremony cannot be missed. Now this process is in front of him. Zhu Houcong Can't help but sneer.

What enters from Donganmen.

What lives in Wenhua Palace.

This is not going to ascend the throne, it is obviously for him to be the prince!
