People in Zongwu: Starting with the Yin Gui Sect

Chapter 307

"How long are you going to pretend? Is it fun?"

Wu Yu didn't expect that Zhu Youxiao, as the king of a country, could be so shameless. In order to quit as soon as possible, he even resorted to such a method.

"Ahem, that fifth brother, you see, I have no other choice. You are unwilling to take over the throne. I have no choice but to resort to this."

Zhu Youxiao, who had been exposed, didn't care about pretending to be unconscious anymore. He sat up directly from the bed. There was no half-dead state just now.

Fortunately, I was so sad just now. It turned out that this guy had been pretending all the time. If I hadn't accidentally opened the system panel just now, I'm afraid I would have been fooled by this guy.

"It's not all false. I feel that I'm becoming more and more powerless these days, so I want to transfer power to you while I can still hold on for a while, so that some people with ulterior motives will not think that they have an opportunity to take advantage of it and let the Ming Dynasty fall into chaos again."

Seeing Wu Yu's face getting uglier, Zhu Youxiao could only force an explanation. As for those people he was talking about, they were naturally those ambitious princes and clans.

Among them, Prince Fu Zhu Changxun, the Iron-hearted Marquis Zhu Wusi, and the already killed Prince Nanping were the most obvious, especially Zhu Wusi, who even cooperated with the Japanese pirates in Japan for this.

"I believe your lies!"

If others don't know, Wu Yu doesn't know, it's only October of the sixth year of Tianqi, and there is still a long time before Zhu Youxiao is really killed!

"Fifth brother, you also know that I really don't want to continue to be the emperor, and I'm not good at this. Compared with the emperor, I would rather be a carpenter!"

Zhu Youxiao was also helpless, so he could only choose this way to free himself earlier.

Seeing that Wu Yu was slow to speak, Zhu Youxiao said cautiously after a long while: "Fifth brother, do you agree?"

Wu Yu felt tired, he rubbed his eyebrows hard, and said after a while: "Wait a little longer, two months, wait another two months, I will take over this position when the time enters the seventh year of Tianqi."

"Why do you have to wait until the seventh year?"

Zhu Youxiao didn't understand why Wu Yu was so persistent in the seventh year of Tianqi. He had already agreed, but he had to wait until the seventh year of Tianqi.

"Don't worry about it. In short, if you want me to take over this position, you must find a way to delay it for another two months!"

Wu Yu naturally wouldn't say that in history, your emperor died in the seventh year of Tianqi.

Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Yu plans to take advantage of these last two months to visit various border towns, find out the reasons why the Ming Dynasty has been defeated repeatedly in the face of Jiannu in recent years, and by the way, see if those generals and commanders are really as loyal to the emperor and patriotic as they say.

Thinking of those generals in the late Ming Dynasty who had polarized reputations in history, Wu Yu thought it would be better to go and see for himself. Although seeing is not necessarily believing, he would never believe it if he didn't see it.

"This... can we discuss it? After all, pretending to be sick is very tiring!"

When Zhu Youxiao heard Wu Yu say that he would have to pretend for another two months, he felt a sense of powerlessness.

In his current condition, shouldn't he have died two days after being entrusted with the care of his son? Why did he have to delay for another two months? What if he was found out?

"That's your problem. Can't you pretend? Then let you pretend to be satisfied. I don't care whether you use Taizu's spiritual manifestation or the last light, but you must pretend for me in the last two months."

After saying that, Wu Yu no longer cared about him and left the room on his own.

"Your Highness (Fifth Brother)!"

Seeing Wu Yu come out, the people guarding the door immediately stepped forward and called him.

"My brother has woken up, but he needs to rest now. If you have nothing to do after visiting him, please leave immediately!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yan and the others rushed in impatiently, and then saw Zhu Youxiao sitting up. Although his face was still pale, his mental state was much better.

"Your Majesty, how are you?"

Seeing Zhu Youxiao sitting up, Zhang Yan immediately rushed over and hugged him.

"I'm sorry to have worried the queen. Don't worry, I'm fine now. My fifth brother just used a secret method to help me suppress the disease in my body. There will be no problem in the short term."

Several people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, secretly thinking that he was worthy of being His Royal Highness Xin Wang, who could even curb the disease that the imperial physician could not diagnose.

However, just in case, Zhang Yan quickly called the imperial physician to check the situation.

Soon after the imperial physician finished taking Zhu Youxiao's pulse, he said, "Don't worry, your majesty, there is nothing wrong with the emperor for the time being, he just needs to rest for a while."

After saying that, the imperial physician left, but before leaving, he specifically glanced at the other three Wei Zhongxians.

The three of them understood what he meant and followed him out.Wei Zhongxian asked first: "How is it, Doctor Sun, is the emperor really well?"

Apart from Empress Zhang Yan, the one who least wanted the emperor to get into trouble was none other than Wei Zhongxian.

But Doctor Sun shook his head regretfully, "Forgive me for being powerless. The emperor looks fine, but his pulse hasn't improved."

"Doctor Sun, do you mean that the emperor..."

The words of Doctor Sun made the three people think of a word - last gasp!

Doctor Sun just nodded, and then left without saying anything, leaving the three people with different thoughts in the cold wind.

After a while, Wei Zhongxian said to Zhang Weixian on the side: "Duke Ying, I'm sorry to bother you in the Beijing camp for a while!"

"You don't need to remind me of this, I know it naturally!"

After that, Zhang Weixian turned away directly, not giving the so-called nine thousand years old face at all.

Wei Zhongxian was not angry when he saw this. Instead, he whispered to Huang Liji beside him: "Prime Minister, the court and the cabinet are depending on you!"

"Don't worry, Eunuch Wei, I know!"

After that, Huang Liji also said goodbye and left.

After the two figures disappeared, Wei Zhongxian called a little eunuch.

"Grandfather!"

Wei Zhongxian didn't waste any words, "Go, summon Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, and Cui Chengxiu to see me, and tell them that I have something important to find them."

The little eunuch nodded and agreed: "Grandson understands, please rest assured, Grandfather, I will definitely convey the message."

After the little eunuch left, Wei Zhongxian murmured to himself: "It's better to die than to die for my friends. Don't blame me for being cruel. Since you have enjoyed the treatment I give you, you should do something for me!"

Recalling what the Prince Xin said just now, Wei Zhongxian knew that it was time to make some choices, otherwise he would be the one to die when the new emperor ascended the throne.
