Longevity begins with Jinyiwei

In the next second, Huang Degong's rapid shouting sounded suddenly,

"Quickly, open the city gate and welcome Lord Hou into Beijing!"

While shouting, Huang Degong also kicked down the soldiers beside him:

"Why are you aiming at the bed crossbow, kid? You want to rebel!"

"Quick, contact alert!"

……

The city gate opened slowly.

Outside the city gate, the common people who originally gathered also spontaneously parted ways at this moment.

"Go into the city!"

Li Xiu stared at the tower in front of him for a long time before he waved his hands wearily.

"The Marquis of Zhenbei is mighty!"

"Invincible!"

I don't know which ordinary people took the lead, the fiery eyes converged, and the shouts resounded through the sky!

Hearing this loud voice suddenly, Li Xiu was also a little stunned. He turned his eyes and felt the simple and hot gazes of these ordinary people, and the appearance of the soldiers in the city tower who were hard to stir and tried to make their bodies stand straighter and taller. Li Xiu The worries in Xiu's heart also suddenly dissipated.

Leaping the horse and whipping the horse, galloping the horse in the still silent capital, it also completely awakened the capital from its silence!

Marquis of Zhenbei, back to Beijing!

This news, like a raging wave, swept across the entire capital in an instant!

"came back……"

In the Yamen of the Ministry of War, Sun Chuanting, who was busy all night in mobilizing supplies for the army's expedition, was also stunned for a long time after hearing the news.

His demeanor and the like seemed to be lost, but also relieved. Of course, like the civil servants present, he was also deeply worried.

Throughout the past and present, why did the dynasties and dynasties emphasize civility over martial arts most of the time.

It is because the rights of civil servants come from the rule system, from the position in the rule system!

If you lose this point, civil servants are worse than dogs!

Although the rights of warriors are also derived from the positions in the system rules.

However, warriors can transcend this point, and even get rid of the limitation of positions!

Especially for a martial artist like Zhenbeihou, whose meritorious service is so outstanding throughout the world, his power has long come not from Zhenbeihou, nor from the positions of Governor-General Jingying Rongzheng!

His power, under the glory of those invincibles, has already converged from the institutional position to him personally.

He is the center of power and is beyond the rules.

Even if these positions do not exist, even if he is just a commoner, his orders are far better than the imperial court for the hundreds of thousands of troops he has created!

Such an existence is a country's great fortune if it is used by the country. If it is not used by the country, it will definitely be a catastrophe for the country!

Chapter 234 Emperor collapses!

stomping on...

The deathly silence of the palace, the sound of rushing horseshoes sounded again, and once again awakened the memories hidden in the hearts of the eunuchs and maids in the inner palace.

The last time the imperial palace rode on horseback, it seemed that the emperor was assassinated, and it also seemed to be the beginning of the bloody storm that swept across the capital.

This time...

Looking at the familiar figure surrounded by iron cavalry, the eunuchs and maids also trembled in their hearts, and quickly lowered their heads.

As far as Li Xiu is concerned, the same journey has been traveled countless times.

This is the second time I have the same apprehension.

The Qianqing Palace is already in sight, and it will arrive in an instant.

Li Xiu became more and more hesitant.

"Master Hou!"

Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun rushed out of the hall, and the moment they saw Li Xiu, they couldn't stop exclaiming.

"Your Majesty...what's the situation, Your Majesty?"

Wang Chengen's eyes were red: "Your Majesty, I have been waiting for you, Lord Hou, I have been waiting for you!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Xiu rushed into the Qianqing Palace.

It's just that the galloping steps subconsciously stopped when he saw clearly the emaciated body.

His eyes were also unstoppably red.

Step by step, as if afraid of disturbing something, he walked towards the sick bed with almost difficulty.

At this time, the Son of Heaven who was lying on the sickbed seemed to have noticed something, opened his eyes with difficulty, and turned his neck bit by bit, and the eyes that were already cloudy and dead were also looking at Li Xiu who was walking.

The emperor laughed!

Even though the smile was extremely ugly at the moment, it was never brighter than before.

"His Majesty!"

The armor touched the ground, Li Xiu, the myth that countless soldiers of the Ming Dynasty believed in, at this moment, tears flickered in his eyes.

"Hey...Li...Brother Li...You're back...It's good to be back..."

"I'm back, the last general is back!"

Li Xiu clenched his fists tightly, and his voice trembled a little.

"Liao, Liao...how is the situation of the Eastern Army..."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Liaodong is safe, Shanhaiguan is under control, and the army has withdrawn. Houjin and Liaozhen have been effectively blocked..."

"Okay! I... just know, Brother Li, you can do it..."

The Son of Heaven let out a long breath, and after a long silence, he called out with difficulty.

"Chun... Brother Chun!"

Empress Zhou, who was standing beside her, immediately brought the little prince over.

With the support of the queen, the emperor sat up with difficulty, raised his withered arm like a branch, and stroked the bewildered face of the little prince.

"Brother Li...Chun...Brother Chun will be handed over to you..."

The emperor held the little prince's hand with one hand, and tremblingly pulled it to Li Xiu's body, and finally handed it over to Li Xiu's hand.

Li Xiu tightly held the arm of the little prince in front of him, looked at the expectant emperor, and nodded firmly and resolutely.

"well!"

The Son of Heaven slumped against the edge of the bed, his eyes slightly closed, as if he had completely settled his last thoughts.

At this moment, Wang Chengen stepped forward cautiously: "Your Majesty, all the officials are already outside the hall!"

"Let's pass it on..."

"According to the order!"

"Your Majesty has a decree to announce that all officials will enter the palace to have an audience!"

Outside the hall, the kneeling civil and military officials also stood up one after another, and walked into the Qianqing Palace amidst the oppressive silence.

When they saw Li Xiu who had not taken off his armor before the emperor's sick bed, the ministers also had different expressions, but at this moment, they couldn't help them to think too much.

After all the officials fell to their knees and shouted, the hall returned to silence again, and everyone was waiting, waiting for the emperor on the sickbed to issue his final will, or in other words, a death sentence!

"Brother Li...help me up!"

The Son of Heaven spoke out, and such titles made the officials' demeanor change suddenly.

With Li Xiu's support, the Son of Heaven also sat up straight little by little, facing the officials.

This is also the first time since the emperor became seriously ill, successive officials.

"Following the fate of the heavens, the emperor ordered that the Marquis of Zhenbei led his army to wipe out the south and north of the desert, and put down the scourge in the northern border. He has made outstanding achievements..."

"Professed to be Qin Guogong, the governor of the five armies, and the commander of the world's soldiers and horses!"

"Xu Feng, who broke the prisoner, entered Monan alone, fought against the sixteen Mongolian tribes in Monan, killed countless enemies, sealed the broken prisoner, gave the iron scroll, was promoted to the governor of Jizhen, and the governor of Jizhen's military administration..."

"Ru Shan Bo Yan Shun, the army guards Tashan, alone defending against the attack of the whole country of Hou Jin... Feng Ru Shanhou, bestowed with iron scrolls..."

"Uncle Loyalty, Zhao Wu..."

"The remaining meritorious men in the army will be jointly appraised and rewarded by the Governor's Office of the Five Armies and the Ministry of War. You must not neglect the meritorious ministers..."

One after another reward decrees sounded in this quiet Qianqing Palace, clearly revealing the emperor's mind.

At this time when the power is overwhelming, when the power of Zhen Beihou is already irresistible...

Son of Heaven, even at the end of his life, he still stands firmly behind Zhenbeihou...

Thousands of words for thousands of years, it is hard to express the feeling in my heart.

This is a clear portrayal of the minds of courtiers and officials today.

Worry, fear, helplessness, or... despair...

"I... I... time is running out..."

At this moment, the silent Son of Heaven finally spoke out slowly.

The voice was intermittent, but extremely firm, his pale expression, at this moment, actually appeared a little rosy, and his cloudy eyes began to brighten.

"After my death, the crown prince succeeds the Great Treasure!"

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven beckoned to the Prince again, and after holding the Prince, the Son of Heaven looked at the blood-stained Li Xiu in the palace.

"The prince is young, so he should have a minister to assist the country. Duke Qin has made outstanding contributions and can be the pillar of the country!"

"Before the crown prince and Guan came to power, Duke Qin was responsible for all affairs of the court..."

"All ministers, you should do your best to assist, so that the country can be stabilized and the Ming Dynasty will be revived!"

As soon as these words came out, the hall was completely silent, and all the officials were full of disbelief!

It is predictable that the emperor trusts the Marquis of Zhenbei!

Yes, entrust all of Daming to one person!

This……

From ancient times to the present, has such a thing happened before!

"No, Your Majesty, absolutely no!"

"This is the order of a country in chaos. From ancient times to the present, there has never been such a precedent!"

Some courtiers shouted in despair!

"I! I have made up my mind! You don't need to say more!"

The Son of Heaven was furious, his face flushed, and when he said angrily, traces of blood ooze from the corners of his mouth.

At this scene, the ebullient words of the courtiers suddenly stagnated.

No matter what they think, but if the emperor collapses because of their boiling words when he is dying, it will be a crime of heaven and no one can save it!

At this moment, the emperor ignored the courtiers.

After being assassinated, he completely lost all trust in the courtiers, to be precise, in the civil servants.

He would rather take the risk of the country changing hands than hand over the country to civil officials.

In the hands of Li Xiu, even if the country is in danger of changing hands, the country will definitely be rejuvenated!

Handed over to civil officials... The emperor and the others dare to assassinate, even if the country continues, so what, besides, can they save the world from falling?Can they... can keep the country?

Civil servants can be killed!

……

Under the watchful eyes of the courtiers, the Son of Heaven stood up slowly, led the Crown Prince, and walked tremblingly to Li Xiu step by step.

Staring at Li Xiu, the Son of Heaven smiled brightly:
