Yuan Chonghuan resigned in anger and returned home. Sun Yuanhua and other meritorious ministers from Ningyuan and Ningjin victory left sadly, and the morale of the Liaodong army plummeted again.

The confidant prince sent by Wei Zhongxian was a coward who had no eggs and was afraid of the enemy like a tiger, so that the Ming army was defeated again in the next battle of Jinxing. The advantages accumulated by finally using two great victories were immediately gone.

The eunuchs' actions of seizing food and pay to seize military merits turned the originally powerful Liaodong Army into a mess. Ningyuan officers and soldiers, who had outstanding achievements in the Ningyuan victory and Ningjin victory, even mutinyed and beat Liaodong Governor Bi Zisu to death!

Later, even if Chongzhen activated Yuan Chonghuan again, it would be useless.

The people's hearts are dispersed and the team is difficult to lead. The actions of the eunuch party have already made the border soldiers feel cold, and no one is willing to fight for the court again.

What a pity that this is a great situation!

Zhu Qituo couldn't help but sigh when he heard the news that Yuan Chonghuan resigned in anger. The Ming army was over and he was no longer a match for Jiannu.

At this time, he had returned to Nanyang and the Prince's Mansion of Zhejiang Chuan County, because he had "calculated" that the Apocalypse had been alive for a few days, and the Ming Dynasty was about to change the world again.

After Chongzhen came to power, there was another fierce internal strife. At that time, the construction of a temple would not be good.

Unexpectedly, before the news of the death of the Age was heard, the old King Tang could not bear it anymore.

On this day, the weather was clear and the sun was shining, and there was laughter and joy in the prince's mansion.

Zhu Yuta was taking Zhu Wanjun and Zhu Wanzhen to run wildly on the grass in the back garden, while Ma Ruiling, Fan Xinyi and Ning Xiuer were taking their children to chat with Zhu Qizhu in the pavilion. The family was harmonious and happy.

At this time, Zhu Qizhuo had three more children. I wonder if it was a coincidence that Ma Ruiling gave birth to a son, while Fan Xinyi and Ning Xiuer gave birth to a daughter.

Perhaps, this has a certain relationship with the body. Some women have one son and another son, and it is difficult to have a daughter. Some women have a bunch of daughters, and they can’t even give birth to a single son.

Of course, in Zhu Qizhu's eyes, his son and daughter are the same, and he likes them both.

He was holding his youngest daughter Zhu Wanfang to make fun of him, and suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves outside. Not long after, a Yiwei from the Tang Palace ran in panting and said anxiously: "Little Prince, the old prince is sick. The imperial doctor said that he may not be able to hold on for long."

ah!

Zhu Qizhu was stunned when he heard this.

After a while, he slowly turned his head and looked at his precious daughter in his arms.

People who have never been parents may not know how important their children are in their parents' minds.

When he was fighting outside, he was thinking about his children almost always. Every time he returned home, he felt that all the hard work was worth it.

It can be said that children are the flesh of their parents' hearts. As long as they have children to accompany them, their hearts will be filled with a feeling of warmth and happiness.

The problem is that he has not accompanied the old King Tang.

Every time, he would leave and return in a hurry, and he had never stayed in the Tang Palace for much time.

Every time the old King Tang saw his doting expression, he still remembered it fresh. In the old King Tang's heart, he is a baby!

In the past, he ignored it and didn't care about the feelings of the old Tang King.

Alas, let’s give him this last journey together.

Thinking of this, he quickly stood up and said, "Lingling, Xinyi, Xiu'er, hurry up and prepare, our family will return to the Tang Palace together."

Soon, the family set out in two carriages.

This time, he did not bring any guards, and only Zhao Zhengdao and his son were following each other. Anyway, there were secret guards in Nanyang Prefecture, so he didn't have to worry about safety issues at all.

However, the speed of riding in a carriage was not comparable to riding a horse and riding. The group rushed to the carriage and took two days to arrive at the Tang Palace in Nanyang.

At this time, the old King Tang was like before and was bedridden.

However, it was the poisonous woman Zhang who gave medicine before, but this time it was the old King Tang who fell ill himself.

When a person reaches this age, once he is so sick that he lies in bed, he is likely to never get up.

The old King Tang may also know that he has not had much time, so when he sees his youngest son and his family, he is unwilling to close his eyes, as if he will never be able to see enough.

Zhu Qi put down everything and ignored everything. Every day he accompanied the old King Tang, served him to drink medicine and eat with him. When the weather was good, he ordered people to carry him to the square outside the main hall to bask in the sun, and at the same time let his children play around him to make him happy.

Although the old King Tang's spirit was getting worse, his face was always filled with a happy smile.

At this time, he didn't think about anything anymore, just wanted to enjoy this rare family happiness.

In the end, the old King Tang passed away with a smile without leaving any regrets.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Qingxuan, the left chief of the Tang Dynasty's palace, handed over the old Tang Dynasty's will to Zhu Qizhu.

The old King Tang must have wanted to pass the throne of the vassal king to his youngest son Zhu Qi, but this was inconsistent with the rules of the royal succession, so he never announced it during his lifetime.

Now that he has passed away, will the court come according to his will?

Don't worry about this, it will definitely be!

You know, the fake Zhuqiu is also the 9,000-year-old Eunuch Wei, who is still building the largest ancestral temple for others.

Moreover, the entire court is already the 9,000-year-old Eunuch Wei. What can be wrong with this little thing?

However, to be on the safe side, Zhu Qizhu ordered people to recall Liu Ruoyu.

Anyway, he still had to hold a funeral for the old King Tang, so he was not in a hurry to succeed the throne.

After Liu Ruoyu came, he asked him to write a letter in person, report on the progress of the sacred temple, and then praised Wei Zhongxian for him.

Then, he ordered the Jinyiwei of the Tang Palace to go straight to the capital with the will of the old Tang King and Liu Ruoyu's letter.

Wei Zhongxian received a letter from Liu Ruoyu and ten thousand taels of gold from Zhuqiu, and the chrysanthemums were laughing.

The Prince of Zhejiang and Sichuan is good at being a human being, so the position of the King of Tang is naturally his fault.

Soon, the Zongren Mansion sent a document to officially confirm that Zhu Qizhu, the prince of Zhejiang and Sichuan, succeeded to the position of King Tang.

Zhuqizhuo changed from a prince to a vassal king.

The vassal kings are much awesome than the vassal kings. Although they are all princes, the vassal kings have no status among the royal family. Only the vassal kings can speak in the royal family and relatives.

The princes had two subordinate officials, Dianshen and Professors. The most were Yiwei, but the vassal kings had dozens of subordinate officials, including the left and right Fengzheng, the general manager, Dianbao, Dianchu, Yibin, professor, etc., and hundreds of Yiwei.

Of course, none of these are the most important. The most important thing is that the land annexed by the vassal kings is scary.

The King of Tang is the most low-key among all the vassal kings, but in Nanyang, there are millions of acres of fertile land under the name of the Prince of Tang.

What is this concept?

Even if you can only harvest one stone of grain per acre of land every year, it will be more than one million stone of grain!

More than one million stones of grain are worth at least four or five million taels at this time!

It seems like a great thing for the prince to become a prince. Not only does his status have been significantly improved, but his inherited property is also amazing.

However, Zhuqiu can't be happy at all.

Because, according to the law, the king of the vassal state could not leave his fiefdom, and even if he wanted to leave Nanyang Prefecture, he had to apply to the court.

Moreover, there are too many eyeliners in the Tang Dynasty's palace.

Hundreds of officials, eunuchs and guards in the royal palace may be the eyeliners of the court!

In other words, as soon as he entered the Tang Palace, he was closely monitored by the court, and even the trick of using Ning Xiuer as a substitute was a bit bad.

Ning Xiu'er can become his appearance, but he can't become Ning Xiu'er's appearance. One man and one woman sneaked into the bedroom, and then two men came out. Idiots could see something was wrong!

After he became the King of Tang, he was locked in a cage and could not do anything.
