Chapter 1409 Special Envoy From the Capital
Master Zhan noticed it, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart. When he had to think about it carefully, he couldn't help hesitating eagerly: If Master Li seized the world, why not? When the time comes, won't I also rise with the tide...
Orders go down to the prefectures and counties layer by layer, and all places are ordered to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside. It is strictly forbidden to have civil uprisings or any bad rumors. It is necessary to ensure that the people's hearts are stable and the people live in peace.
Xiao Mu personally took people to Quanzhou to manage the coastal defense there.
Five days later, the special envoy in the capital galloped into Nanhai City under the escort of a 100-strong imperial guard, announcing the news of Emperor Jiande's death, and at the same time announcing His Royal Highness King Li to succeed him and change the Yuan to Xin Yuan.
Li Fu and others knew that King Xian did not win the fight against King Li, and King Li finally sat on the dragon chair on the Jinluan Hall.
When the emperor delivered the decree, Li Fu naturally had to accept it.
The eunuch Xia, who passed the decree, saw that Li Fu led the crowd to kneel down to receive the decree. He couldn't help but feel proud, so he said with a smile on his face: "Master Li, please get up quickly! When our family left Beijing, the emperor was a I have specially instructed you to treat Master Li well and not to be rude to Master Li! Your Majesty has made great contributions to the state, and the emperor has always remembered him, and he even said that he will use him more!"
Li Fu smiled lightly, and said: "The emperor's words are serious, and this humble minister is ashamed."
When Eunuch Xia saw that he represented the new emperor so clearly showing his favor to him, he didn't have the slightest bit of fear and flattery, and then it was fine to express his loyalty with zero tears of gratitude!
Such a lukewarm reaction!
What an attitude!
Does he really think of himself as something special? Don't forget to be the emperor and the courtiers! What is the credit of the first emperor in front of the new emperor?
Could it be that he forgot? His good wife offended the new queen's family to death! Now that the new emperor took the initiative to show his favor to him, he didn't say thank you, but actually picked it up!
Hmph, let him carry it! Sooner or later, he will feel better! Just don't kneel down and cry and beg!
Eunuch Xia's face suddenly became a little ugly, he snorted softly, cleared his throat, and suddenly opened his shrill voice and shouted: "The emperor has other orders, Li Fu, the chief envoy of Nanhai County, accepts the order! "
Li Fu frowned, then knelt down again, and said: "I listen to the order!"
Eunuch Xia took another scroll of bright yellow imperial decree from a servant who respectfully offered it with both hands, and began to read it aloud...
Leaving aside the clichés, the meaning is that the new emperor misses General Li very much, and he cannot live without General Li in the capital. Therefore, General Li is asked to hand over the post of Chief Envoy of Nanhai County to Zhu Yan who came to take up the post. General Li immediately brings his family With Eunuch Xia returning to Beijing to report on his duties, the new emperor will have another important role!
With a will, Hu Dahai, Feng Quji and others all changed their colors, and secretly exchanged glances with each other, seeing that the meaning was similar in each other's hearts, and only then did they feel a little more at ease.
And quietly watching how the situation develops.
Hearing this decree, Li Fu was not surprised.
It's fine if King Li doesn't send someone, if he sends someone, it will never be as simple as just announcing the news of the late emperor's death!
What's more, the grievances with the Zhu family have long been inseparable, and this time the Zhu family's tide has risen, so no matter what, he and Lian Fangzhou must be brought back to make a fuss, right?
Li Wang just had a big fight with Xian Wang, it is absolutely impossible and he does not have the ability to confront the Zhu family on this matter at this time!
But is he being an idiot? How could he obediently return to Beijing and wait to die? With just one hundred imperial guards, can they hold him?
"General Li, quickly receive the order to thank you and prepare for it. Let's set off early tomorrow morning!" Eunuch Xia gathered up the imperial order and handed it to Li Fu, saying unhurriedly.
Li Fu was silent.
Eunuch Xia's face changed, and he said sharply: "Li Fu! Could it be that you can't resist the order! You are so courageous!"
Li Fu got up slowly, stared at Eunuch Xia, and asked coldly: "The late emperor was always in good health, why did he die suddenly? And the East Palace, why did such a big fire suddenly break out and everyone died overnight, including the prince?" Sea of fire? The late emperor died, the crown prince, the emperor’s grandson, and the emperor’s grandson all died, but His Royal Highness Li Wang ascended the throne in a hurry to get the greatest benefit! There is too much doubt here! His Highness Li Wang doesn’t think it should be given Courtiers, give the world an explanation!"
Eunuch Xia's complexion changed slightly. The news in the capital was clearly under strict control. I didn't expect such a remote Nanhai County to know so clearly!
Before Eunuch Xia could explain and scold, Hu Dahai, Feng Quji, etc. got up and yelled and questioned loudly!
"That's right! King Xian is a famous virtuous king. If His Royal Highness King Li is in the right position, how could King Xian question it!"
"I heard that His Royal Highness King Li ascended the throne in a hurry, and King Yong didn't return to the capital. If there is no ghost here, who are you kidding?"
"Killing kings and fathers, rebellious officials and thieves, everyone can punish them!"
"The prince's death is wronged! The East Palace is wronged! The rebellious ministers and thieves will be punished sooner or later!"
"Shut up! Shut up for me!" Amidst the chaos, a thirty-five or six-year-old official wearing a purple robe and a white jade belt, with a round face, a broad nose, and open facial features stepped out of the crowd and glared at everyone. shouted loudly.
The flustered and panic-stricken Eunuch Xia also came back to his senses, and screamed angrily: "It's reversed! It's all reversed! How dare you offend your superiors and talk about the new king, how bold!"
He pointed at the crowd and shouted angrily, "You all want to rebel!"
Anyone who is an official looks down on eunuchs, and when everyone is angry, seeing Eunuch Xia flaunting his might and bossing around here is even more distasteful. How can they be afraid of his words?
For a while, "Dead eunuch!", "Old dog!", "Slave who is a dog!" sound? Shouting until the voice is hoarse, people can hear it but can't hear it, so let's talk!
As soon as Li Fu raised his hand, everyone stopped shouting and cursing.
Li Fu ignored Eunuch Xia who was still screaming and screaming in a hoarse voice at all, stared at the official in purple and jade belt, raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "My lord, what's your name?"
The man snorted coldly and said proudly: "My official, Zhu Yan, is the next chief envoy of Nanhai County! Master Li, you are a smart man. Now the general situation is set. His Royal Highness King Li has been enthroned as emperor, and he is firmly seated in the Golden Temple." Dragon chair, those who know the current affairs are heroes, Mr. Li will not do such a rebellious thing? The emperor thinks highly of Mr. Li! The emperor said that all the previous grievances and grievances will be wiped out. As long as Mr. Li returns to Beijing, he will be promoted immediately. Confer the Duke of the state, enjoy the double salary, enshrine the eldest son as the eldest son, confer the post of general of the fourth-rank chariot and cavalry! Give Mrs. Li five Zhai pearl crowns, brocade clothes and Xiapei! Sir Li, the emperor has already let go, is it possible that Lord Li still refuses to let go? ? I don’t know what Master Li’s intentions are?”
