There is no answer to this question yet.

But if it was a fake death, what was his purpose?

Test?

What is he testing?

Could it be that you are testing me?

Are you testing whether I have any ambitions to take the throne?

Several of my brother's sons died young, and now he has no heir, so he wants to test whether I have the intention of treason?

The more I think about it, the more it seems to be the case!

Such realistic acting, such vicious thoughts!

He was very unwilling, but when he saw Wei Zhongxian behind Zhu Youxiao, he chose to give in.

More than half of the officials in this palace are eunuchs. As a person without any foundation in the court, he can do nothing under such circumstances!

"Pfft!"

Zhu Youjian fell to his knees and looked at Zhu Youxiao with horror.

"Brother, calm down. I shouldn't have coveted the throne, and I shouldn't have listened to the officials' advice to hold the coronation ceremony."

"I am willing to give up my title and become a commoner, and donate all my property to the national treasury. I beg you to spare my life, brother!"

Seeing Zhu Youjian's reaction, Zhu Youxiao laughed, and laughed happily.

It seems that there aren't too many mistakes in the historical records. This guy has too many thoughts in his mind!

"Forget it, I was just joking with you!"

"You are also acting in accordance with my 'last will'. What crime have you committed?"

After saying this, he sat down on the dragon throne, with his legs slightly apart, his hands on the dragon head, and coughed lightly at Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian was a very clever man, and he had mastered the art of reading people's expressions. After receiving his eye signal, he immediately prostrated himself on the ground and shouted loudly.

"This old slave pays homage to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor!"

Upon seeing this, the eunuch officials who were attached to him suddenly came to their senses.

Who cares if he's faking his corpse or not!

As long as he is still Tianqi, Wei Zhongxian will not be liquidated, and as long as Wei Zhongxian is alive, he will still have a good life!

So, under the leadership of Jinyiwei commander Tian Ergeng, they bowed and shouted in unison.

"Your subjects pay homage to our Emperor. Long live the Emperor!"

No matter how dull the other officials were, they all reacted at this time. They could only suppress their doubts and cheer for the emperor.

"Everyone get up!"

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and pointed at the official who fell to the ground.

"Someone, send him to the Imperial Hospital for treatment!"

Four guards rushed in from outside the hall and carried the old man out of Jianji Hall.

Looking at the puzzled expressions of the officials, Zhu Youxiao smiled again.

"Everyone!"

"I know you are confused. I am not really dead these days. I was summoned by Lord Hongwu and was given some advice."

Wow.......

When these words were spoken, all the officials were shocked.

Who is Lord Hongwu?

That was the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang!

How could the current emperor be summoned by Emperor Hongwu to receive instructions in person?

How great a blessing is this?!

Compared to coming back from the dead, they would rather accept this statement!

Without waiting for them to say anything, Wei Zhongxian once again knelt down, stuck out his butt, and complimented them devoutly.

"Our emperor is wise and wise. It is a blessing for the Ming Dynasty to be favored by Lord Hongwu!"

"The blessing of the world and the blessing of all people!"

The eunuch party immediately agreed.

Seeing this, the other officials had no choice but to follow.

Such a scene was very boring. Zhu Youxiao smacked his lips and stood up.

"Okay, today's business ends here!"

"Emperor Hongwu taught me many things. I have to go back and write them down."

"You all should go your separate ways!"

Wei Zhongxian immediately stepped forward, stretched out his arm, and held Zhu Youxiao's right hand.

This old guy is very sexy!

Even with a lot of sachets hanging around his waist, he still couldn't cover up the smell of urine.

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but frowned, but then pretended nothing had happened and walked down the imperial steps with the help of Wei Zhongxian.

After leaving the Jianji Hall, walk all the way to the Qianqing Palace.

Some palace maids and eunuchs they met on the way were all shocked when they recognized Zhu Youxiao.

Bound by etiquette, they hurriedly bowed their heads, lowered their hands, stood on both sides of the road, and greeted each other.

Zhu Youxiao didn't even look at these servants and hurried past them.

He was actually very nervous!

Inside the sleeves, there were clenched fists, and the palms were already wet with sweat.

A soul from the future time traveled through time and space to become the emperor's body, and he was afraid that others would notice something.

This was the real reason why he was in a hurry to leave Jianji Palace!

The Qianqing Palace is very large, with a corridor that is 9 rooms wide and 5 rooms deep, which means the supreme ruler.

The main room and the east and west side rooms in the hall are connected. There is a screen between the two golden pillars on the back eaves, and a throne in front of the screen. Above the throne hangs a plaque with the words "Monarch Huayi".

There are warm rooms at the east and west ends, and a fairy tower on the front eaves.

The inner guards standing at the palace gate saw from afar Wei Zhongxian and other eunuchs escorting Zhu Youxiao, who was wearing a dragon robe, towards them. At first they thought it was the new emperor Zhu Youjian who had arrived, and they quickly knelt on one knee to salute.

"See my emperor!"

"Everyone get up!"

The other person had already knelt down, so it would be inappropriate not to say hello, so Zhu Youxiao just replied casually.

When the inner guards heard this extremely familiar voice, they all raised their heads and looked towards Zhu Youxiao.

"Your Majesty?"

One of them was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

Like those ministers, he couldn't understand how an emperor who had been dead for three days suddenly came back to life!

Zhu Youxiao was also speechless. Along the way, he had seen nothing but scenes like this. It was so boring!

Walking up the white marble steps and crossing the high threshold, we entered the Palace of Heavenly Purity.

The imperial desk was empty, without a mountain of memorials, and there were only two or three brushes.

He picked up one of them, looked at it for a moment, and then threw it back on the table.

He knows how to use this brush, but he can only use it at night.

If he were asked to write with this thing in broad daylight, he would never be able to do anything, not to mention that there were a large number of traditional Chinese characters in the Ming Dynasty writing system.

So he walked to the chair, sat down and said to Wei Zhongxian.

"Yan Mo, I say, you remember!"

"Old slave obeys!"

Wei Zhongxian bowed slightly, moved closer to the table, and winked at the young eunuch next to him, who hurried forward to grind the ink.

After the ink was ground and Wei Zhongxian was ready to write, Zhu Youxiao slowly opened his mouth.

"Li Hongji, from Mizhi, Shaanxi."

"Li Jin, from Mizhi, Shaanxi."

"Liu Zongmin, from Lantian, Shaanxi."

"Li Dingguo, from Yulin, Shaanxi."

"Zhang Xianzhong, from Dingbian, Shaanxi."

"Gao Yingxiang is from Ansai, Shaanxi."

"......"

"Send people to Shaanxi immediately to find these people. I will need them!"

Hearing these unfamiliar names, Wei Zhongxian suddenly felt that his brain was not enough.

"Your Majesty, who are these people that make you..."

"identity?"

Zhu Youxiao's expression suddenly turned cold.

"Among these people, there are Ming Dynasty postmen, civilians, and bandits!"

"As for what we are looking for them for, that is not your business."

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhongxian's face froze instantly. He slapped himself in the face, then forced a flattering smile and apologized to Zhu Youxiao.

"It's all my fault for talking too much, Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao ignored him, he slapped himself in the face again and again without stopping.

It was not until he saw a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth that Zhu Youxiao waved at him impatiently.

"Just take care of the East Factory's affairs. You don't need to ask about other matters. Get out and do your work!"

Chapter 3: One of the Five Beauties of China, Zhang Yan

After sending Wei Zhongxian away, Zhu Youxiao waved to the eunuchs standing by.

"Go, fetch the commander of the Imperial Guard for me!"

Soon, a general dressed in a flying fish costume was brought in.

"Your Majesty, I, Tian Ergeng, pay my respects to you!"

"Get up first. I have something for you to do."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Tian Ergeng stood up. Although he was very curious about the emperor's resurrection, he did not dare to look Zhu Youxiao in the eye.

On the way here, he had seen Wei Zhongxian. His old face was beaten like a pig's head. It was so miserable!

Zhu Youxiao rubbed his temple and looked at the air duct outside that was distorted by the sun.

"I want to know the family background of all the officials in this court!"

"The Jinyiwei has it. Get it ready. I can use it anytime."

"The Royal Guards don't have it, go check it out!"

"From the king to the petty officials, no one should be spared!"

"But remember not to tell anyone!"
