Chapter 968: King Wunan

Zhu Qiyu was angry, but Xu Youzhen was not so afraid. At this time, the situation has made no other choice for the representative sect, and if this request cannot be made at this time, it will be even more difficult to find opportunities in the future. So he didn't speak immediately, but looked at Jin Ying beside Zhu Qiyu.

Now that he has accepted his own money, it is naturally time to speak for himself.

Jin Ying, who only received a thousand taels of silver tickets, was furious at the moment. originally thought that Xu Youzhen was going to be reused, and it was beneficial to him to have a good relationship with him, and he had silver to take, wouldn't this be the best of both worlds? But now, this bold Xu Youzhen actually proposed to Yang Chendong to be crowned king, this is something that the emperor will never agree to, how can he have the courage to say this?

It's just a thousand taels of silver, and it's impossible to command yourself to do such a big thing. At the moment, he kept his mouth shut, and even he had already thought that he would return the 1,000 taels of silver tickets when he sent Xu Youzhen out.

The emperor didn't speak, Jin Ying didn't speak, and Xu Youzhen simply fell to his knees and didn't speak. For a while, there was silence in the apse, and the falling needles could be heard.

After about half a quarter of an hour, Zhu Qiyu saw that Xu Youzhen did not say anything, did not admit his mistake, and did not withdraw this request, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Xu Aiqing, your proposal is not advisable, let's change the request."

"Yes, then please ask the courtier to take off the hat of the courtier and put the courtier in prison." Xu Youzhen said without flinching.

"To hell?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes widened.

"Yes, without this condition, the minister really can't convince the loyal and courageous father, even if that's the case, it's better not to go this time. The emperor can also use this time to think of other ways, the lives of 200,000 soldiers can't wait long, emperor. Xu Youzhen said in a tone that there was no other way, and in the end, he did not forget to threaten the lives of 200,000 Beiming soldiers.

Hearing that this was a threat, Zhu Qi Yuteng suddenly stood up from the dragon chair and said angrily, "Isn't there any other way except this method?" ”

"The minister is stupid, I really can't think of a better way." Xu Youzhen simply knelt on the ground and said without even raising her head. He knew that this move was a bit risky, but it would be worth it if he succeeded. Once he can help Yang Chendong ascend to the throne, his merits will naturally not be small, and one day in the future, when the Five-Star Army becomes powerful, he can also take the opportunity to seek more benefits.

"You..." Seeing that Xu Youzhen didn't have the slightest intention of backing down, Zhu Qiyu's whole body was trembling, he thought that this person had come up with some good plan, it turned out that he wanted to crown Yang Chendong as the king. Even if this is the case, presumably anyone with this decision can force Yang Chendong to transport grain, and even send troops is not impossible.

Jin Ying on the side didn't expect things to be so deadlocked, seeing that the emperor was furious, he immediately persuaded repeatedly: "The emperor is angry, the emperor is angry, don't hurt your body for such a trivial matter." If the emperor believes Weichen, please go into the apse to rest first, and wait for Weichen and Xu Shangshu to discuss right and wrong. ”

"Anyway, it's impossible to be crowned king, things have to be done, Jin Aiqing will watch and do it." Zhu Qiyu wanted to cure Xu Youzhen's crime, but he was worried that no one was willing to stand up to solve the problem except for this person, so he had to take a step back and see what the chief eunuch beside him could do.

Zhu Qiyu withdrew angrily, and when only Xu Shangshu and Jin Ying were left in the hall, Xu Youzhen slowly got up without hurry, and patted the dust on his knees very casually, without a trace of panic and nervousness on his face.

originally thought that it would provoke Long Yan's anger, Xu Youzhen was already in a state of sincere fear, but he didn't expect that he was not afraid at all, and there was still idle time to act here, Jin Ying also said angrily: "Xu Shangshu, it's over, it's over." ”

"Huh." Xu Youzhen did not show the slightest fear because the other party was angry, on the contrary, he smiled and said, "Father-in-law Jin, do you think we still have a choice now?" On the one hand, it is the lives of 200,000 soldiers of the Northern Ming Dynasty, and on the other hand, it is just the title of a king. ”

"The emperor obviously won't be crowned king." Jin Ying didn't know how powerful this was, but thinking of Zhu Qiyu's attitude, he still said truthfully.

"Fifty thousand taels. After the matter is completed, I will tell Gonggong Zhong about Gonggong Jin's deeds, and he must still be able to take out 50,000 taels of silver. Xu Youzhen didn't wait for Jin Ying to continue, and had already offered a good price.

This price really made Jin Ying stunned, and then he said suspiciously, "Could it be that Xu Shangshu is a loyal and courageous person?" ”

"Haha, what a joke." Xu Youzhen's face did not change and his heart did not beat, "Everyone knows what I did to Zhonggong before, how can I be his person." Ben Shangshu just thinks that this should be what the loyal and courageous prince wants, and it should not be too much to take the opportunity to ask for some silver taels at that time. Loyal and wealthy people, presumably this is something that many people know. ”

This explanation can be regarded as a temporary dispelling of Jin Ying's concerns, and it is also thought that Yang Chendong wants to get the king title for a day or two, which is a well-known thing, and Xu Youzhen is just casting his name. But when he thought of the emperor's angry look just now, he still said bottomlessly in his heart, "The matter of sealing the king is not a child's play, I'm afraid the emperor will not agree lightly." ”

"One hundred thousand taels." Xu Youzhen, who took the initiative to raise the price code again, this time there was a hint of solemnity in his tone, "This is already the upper limit, I'm afraid that Ben Shangshu will go out in person, and I will get these from the loyal father, but I will give my share to my father-in-law, if it really doesn't work, then there is no need to talk about it anymore, if the emperor is angry with me because of this, Ben Shangshu will take it, and go to prison after leaving the palace, without bothering others." ”

The benefits were doubled all of a sudden, reaching 100,000 taels of silver, and Jin Ying, who was already excited, was completely destroyed by money, and his face changed again and again. Thinking in his heart, it's just to give Yang Chendong a king with a different surname, and not to hand over the country to this person, and he can get 100,000 taels of silver, which is half of his net worth, and at the same time can solve the emperor's difficulties, why not?

Jin Ying didn't speak immediately, Xu Youzhen knew that there was a door after reading it, and immediately continued to speak: "The matter of the king with a different surname, Nanming Yingzong has already broken the rules first, and our Beiming is just following suit, it's nothing." Besides, even if we are crowned kings, we can still make some articles. ”

"Oh? What can I do? "Kim Young is interested. Although he is a person that Zhu Qiyu believes in very much, if he wants to convince the other party in such a major event, he needs enough reasons.

Xu Youzhen knew that this meant that Jin Ying had agreed, and now he was solving the problem from a practical point of view, so he immediately said what he wanted in his heart, "Gonggong Jin, since ancient times, most of the kings have been named according to their fiefs, so we can give Zhongdan Gong a title of King Wunan, which is equivalent to us appointing his title in the wild land in the south, and at that time the headache will only be Yingzong, where do we have any loss?" ”

"King Wunan!" Listening to this title, Jin Ying could think of how angry Emperor Nanming would be after the incident, even angry, and this should be what the emperor wanted to see. Not only can the emperor relieve his anger, but also solve the crisis in front of him, and he can also buy 100,000 taels of silver, it seems that no matter how you look at it, this is a suitable deal, and at this moment there was a little more smile on his face. Then there was the sound of him and Xu Youzhen laughing together.

After Jin Ying was convinced, he turned around and headed towards the inner hall of the apse. I don't know what method he used, maybe Zhu Qiyu just wanted a step, anyway, half an hour later, Xu Youzhen waited for Jin Ying who was holding the holy decree.

"Xu Shangshu, the emperor has made a wise decision, and has agreed to confer the title of Zhonggong as the king of Wunan, this is the holy decree." Jin Ying raised the will in his hand and looked proud.

"Grandpa Jin is powerful." Xu Youzhen gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely. For such a big thing as a king, a father-in-law can do it, I have to say that the ability of the eunuch group is really great.

At the moment when Xu Youzhen wanted to reach out and take the holy decree, Jin Ying suddenly withdrew the will on his back and said: "Xu Shangshu is out of reach, the emperor has another request, this time all the grain and grass needed for Sanbula Sichuan City will be provided by the loyal father, this should be no problem." ”

Unexpectedly, in such a trivial matter, Daizong still wanted to take advantage of it, and there was no wind of a big country at all. Just thinking that the Yang forces could sell grain to Nanming at a parity price, thinking that there should be no shortage of grain, and this problem should not be a problem, he made the decision and agreed, "Okay." ”

"Well, I don't know when I will get the 100,000 taels of silver?" Jin Ying put forward the second request before the public.

Xu Youzhen scolded the other party for being greedy, and he really didn't want to be no better than him. But at this moment, he still explained: "Father-in-law Jin, I haven't even seen anyone who is loyal to Gonggong now, where is the silver to pay?" But please rest assured, even if Ben Shangshu agreed, he will naturally do it, and when I return from the first city, it will be the day when the silver two are offered, if it is not honored, it must be that the Jin Gonggong is in charge of the power of Jinyiwei, and it is not difficult to take me to prison. ”

"Haha, what did Xu Shangshu say, my father-in-law was just joking just now." After getting the answer he wanted, Jin Ying immediately laughed, and the holy decree in his hand was handed to Xu Youzhen's hand.

"Xu Shangshu, when the siege of Sanbula Sichuan City is lifted, it is when the emperor personally issues an edict to announce the edict of the king to the people of the world, and this holy decree is enough to calm the heart of loyalty and courage." At the moment when Kim Young handed over the decree, he told the time when the decree was announced.
