    Lin Li took Zhu Houcong all the way to the palace unimpeded. In front of Zhengde's coffin, he read out Zhengde's edict in front of all the civil and military officials.

    Queen Mother Zhang, Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe and Mao Cheng proved the authenticity of the imperial edict!

    They can¡¯t lie even if they want to. Teams of soldiers from the Royal Forest Army are standing nearby. Anyone who lies will die!

    Lin Li picked up Zhu Houcong and said to the civil and military officials, "You haven't met the new king yet!"

    Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe looked at each other and knelt down first.

    Two pavilion elders took the lead, and the civil and military officials naturally followed. They knelt down together and shouted "Long live" to Zhu Houcong in Lin Li's hand.

    The huge sound frightened Zhu Houcong, but Lin Li held him firmly with his big hands.

    "Lift your head up, you will be the emperor of Ming Dynasty from now on. From now on, you have to lower your head to look at others and accept the gaze of others!"

    Lin Li stood behind Zhu Houcong and said coldly.

    Eight-year-old Zhu Houcong shivered all over, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, which made him shiver all over!

    In his heart, he really wanted to say to Lin Li, "Why don't you kneel down too!"

    In the end, Zhu Houcong did not speak out, but chose to endure it and said to the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground:

    "Everyone is safe and sound!"

    Lin Li glanced at Zhu Houcong in front of him with some surprise. He didn't expect that this man was young but had a big heart, and he could fall into his role so quickly!

    After all the officials got up, Lin Li supported Zhu Houcong, stood up and said to the Minister of Rites: "The new emperor has succeeded to the throne, and everything has changed. I obey the late emperor's decree and assume the position of regent. The Ministry of Rites prepares the edict as soon as possible. After approval by the cabinet, the Secretary  The ceremonial supervisor uses his seal to inform the world!"

    Mao Cheng stood up, bent down and asked Lin Li: "Qi Shenhou, should we hold the funeral of the late emperor first, and then draft the edict of the regent?"

    Lin Li said calmly: "Now that the Ming Dynasty is in troubled times, the northern border and the southern sea are in chaos. The imperial court must come up with the charter as soon as possible. The new king is young, and I, the regent, must shoulder this burden as soon as possible!"

    Lin Li¡¯s excuse is high-sounding. Although it is not in line with the ancestral etiquette, it is still the most appropriate suggestion. The previous "Battle of Capital Defense" has also been followed, and Mao Cheng cannot refute it!

    Yang Tinghe came out and asked Lin Li, "I wonder what title Lord Shenhou wants?"

    Originally, Lin Li's title was only marquis, because he did not want to be crowned king, so he left the capital and became a vassal in accordance with the ancestral rules.

    Now that we want to regent the Ming Dynasty, naturally we can no longer use the position of marquis.

    "The king's title will be discussed by the Zongren Mansion and the Ministry of Rites, and will be handed over to the cabinet after it is determined!" Lin Li thought about it and finally said.

    Li Dongyang asked again: "How should we handle the position of Queen Mother?"

    When a new monarch succeeds to the throne, it stands to reason that the original Empress Dowager Zhang will be automatically promoted to the Empress Dowager, and the original Empress Xia will be the new Empress Dowager.

    But Zhu Houcong is just Zhu Houzhao¡¯s cousin, so he can¡¯t be allowed to recognize Queen Xia as his mother, right?

    Lin Li took a deep look at Yang Tinghe and said: "During the Tang and Song Dynasties, there were also cases where the throne was passed from brother to brother, and there were even cases where nephews passed on the throne to uncles. How we handled it then, we will handle it now!"

    Next, the cabinet and ministers wrote some trivial matters, which made Lin Li frown!

    He can see that the cabinet and ministers are using these trivial matters to perfunctory him, and not mentioning any major national affairs!

    "Humph!" Lin Li suddenly snorted coldly, and the loud sound even drowned out the voices of the officials.

    "From now on, small matters will be left to the cabinet. Non-military matters are major. Don't waste my time. You can just do your part!"

    Lin Li took the new king Zhu Houcong in hand and left after leaving a few words.

    The ministers looked at each other, only Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe smiled at each other!

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The situation in the capital was turbulent and earth-shaking, but it had nothing to do with Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin who were heading south.

    The three of them, escorted by Lao Daobaozi, walked south by water. After several days of trekking through mountains and rivers, they finally arrived at the boundary of Nanchang Prefecture.

    Nanchang Mansion is the fief of King Ning Zhu Chenhao. This King Ning is not the uncle of Emperor Zhengde. The first generation of King Ning is the son of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. The throne has been passed down for several generations, and he is far away from the direct bloodline of the royal family.

    According to his generation, Zhu Chenhao was the uncle of Emperor Zhengde and the same generation as Lin Li.

    After several generations of King Ning's management, Nanchang Mansion has long been out of the control of the imperial court. Now the prefect of Nanchang belongs to King Ning.

    In fact, if it were not for Prince Ning, he would not have been able to serve as the prefect of Nanchang for a few days.?Will die suddenly for no reason.

    The court asked about it several times, but in the end it was ignored and they stopped caring about it.

    As soon as Cao Zhengchun and the others stepped into the territory of Nanchang Mansion, they were introduced and headed all the way to Prince Ning's Mansion.

    When they arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion, the contemporary Prince Ning, Zhu Chenhao, had been waiting for a long time.

    King Ning is a handsome middle-aged man, with the aura of a perennial leader and the upbringing of a royal family. Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin recognized his identity as soon as they saw him!

    "Eunuch Cao, Eunuch Liu, you are finally here. I, the king, are all looking forward to seeing you!"

    King Ning did not treat Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin lightly because of their status as wanted criminals. Instead, he warmly received them and helped them clean themselves up!

    "You two must be tired after traveling all the way. I have already held a banquet to welcome you two. Do you need to freshen up first?"

    When Liu Jin saw King Ning, he ignored his embarrassment and said to him: "King Ning, your majesty is in danger now. Please lead your troops to serve the king!"

    Prince Ning was a little worried and said: "You two don't know something. Five days ago, the late emperor passed away in the 'Qianqing Palace', Prince Xing's crown prince has succeeded to the throne, and the 'Tiedan Shenhou' has also become the regent!"

    When Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin heard that Zhengde had died, they felt as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling, and they almost fainted!

    Prince Ning and Lao Daobao each supported the other, so they didn't fall down!

    "My condolences to you two, I was also shocked when I received this news. How could the late emperor pass away suddenly when he was in the prime of life? The court said that the late emperor died suddenly and violently?"

    The death of the emperor from poisoning was a scandal no matter which dynasty or generation he was in, so justice could not be done. Therefore, after Zhengde's death, Lin Li announced that he had died suddenly of an illness.

    Regarding the wanted orders of Liu Jin and Cao Zhengchun, it was only said that they were corrupt and perverted the law and intended to rebel, not to assassinate the emperor!

    "My late Emperor!" Cao Zhengchun and Liu Jin cried, holding each other's hands, mourning the death of Zhengde endlessly!

    "The late emperor was persecuted and traitors controlled the government. Prince Ning is the uncle of the late emperor, so we must seek justice for him!" Cao Zhengchun cried and held Prince Ning's hand.

    How could King Ning think about it: "Now that the late emperor's edict has been issued to the vassals all over the world, the world has been decided, what can I do!"

    Liu Jin suddenly stood up and said to King Ning: "I have the imperial edict of the late emperor, the 'Iron God Marquis', who intends to rebel. I hope that King Ning will lead troops to the capital to protect King Qin!"

    King Ning was overjoyed when he heard this and said to Liu Jin: "Where is the emperor's edict on clothes and belts?"

    Liu Jin carefully took out a small cloth bag from her arms and slowly opened it, revealing a small rag.

    King Ning picked up the small rag, and sure enough he saw that it was full of small characters like flies, and most importantly, it had the seal of Zhengde Jade Seal on it!

    "Okay, with this edict on clothes and belts in hand, I will immediately call on the vassal kings from all over the country to raise troops to serve the king and clear the king's side!" King Ning laughed happily.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
