Chapter 232
Chapter 232
"What bad luck!"
Finally, Wu Yu, who had recovered from his shock, couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't expect that the unlucky guy possessed by him would be the famous king of the fallen country, Zhu Youjian.
He was still regretting the demise of the Ming Dynasty the moment before, but he didn't expect that he would become the king of the fallen country the next moment.
With a sigh, Wu Yu put the token into the system package, and then followed Zhu Youxiao out of the box.
Below, Lu Xiaofeng and Shangguan Haitang, who watched the two brothers go downstairs one after another, hurried to Zhu Youxiao to salute, and the latter just nodded and said nothing and passed the two.
After Zhu Youxiao's figure completely stepped out of the restaurant door, Wu Yu had already arrived downstairs.
"Wu... Prince!"
Lu Xiaofeng, who was about to call Wu brother, immediately realized that something was wrong, and quickly changed his words.
"I'll settle accounts with you later!"
After saying that, he ignored this guy and walked out of the restaurant together.
This Lu Xiaoji must have known his identity for a long time, but he has been hiding it from me for so long. If he doesn't vent his anger, he will feel sorry for himself.
After hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng behind him smiled bitterly. While knowing that he was unlucky, he also felt sorry for losing a friend.
As I said, since the other party already knew his identity, he naturally couldn't get along with me, Lao Hua and Ximen in the same way as before.
As for Shangguan Haitang on the side, she didn't say anything the whole time, because Zhu Youxiao's appearance made her completely aware that the so-called Wu Shaoxia was actually the real Prince Xin.
Thinking of the incident in Prince Xin's Mansion a few months ago, I'm afraid that the fake Prince Xin had been dealt with by His Majesty himself at that time, but he said it was just house arrest to avoid panic.
And whether his adoptive father also knew this a long time ago, so he asked him to come here to win over Prince Xin.
"No, no, my godfather is not that kind of person. He must have his own reasons for doing this!"
Although she had doubts in her heart, based on her past faith in her godfather and the image he had created over the years, Shangguan Haitang could not accept that her godfather, who had taught her to be loyal to and love the country since she was a child, would actually be that kind of person.
On the other side, Wu Yu naturally did not know that the two would think so much after he left. After asking around, he finally came to Prince Xin's Mansion.
Perhaps he was notified in advance, so Wu Yu was not stopped after his arrival, but the guards saluted him respectfully.
And when he entered, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
I saw that the front yard of Prince Xin's Mansion was already full of people, and the two eunuchs in the lead looked at me excitedly.
He still knew one of them, that was Cao Huachun, whom he met in Nanzhili, and the other one also knew the identity of the other party after checking the information.
Wang Chengen, the loyal eunuch who died with Zhu Youjian in history.
"Master, you are finally back!"
Looking at Wang Chengen who finally stepped into the yard, he could no longer hold back his tears, and Cao Huachun beside him was not much better.
"It's Wang Daban and Cao Daban, you have worked hard in the years I was away!"
Looking at these two old men in the Prince Xin's Mansion who had accompanied him since childhood, Wu Yu was also filled with emotion for a while.
It's easy to know that in the years I was away, the two must have been walking on thin ice in the Prince Xin's Mansion. After all, even he dared to pretend to be him, and the fake Prince Xin was not a good person.
"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's what the old slave should do!"
Hearing Wu Yu say the word hard, the two felt that the grievances they had suffered over the years were worth it.
"Okay, let the others disperse. Wang Daban, you guys should go and do your own things first. I'll take a walk alone!"
After Wu Yu finished speaking, he didn't care about the others and walked around the Xinwang Mansion alone. He just wanted to be alone and think about whether he should take on the responsibility of handling the Ming Dynasty's artifacts.
If he followed his own ideas, he would never be willing to do so. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see the current situation of the Ming Dynasty.
If it were just corrupt officials, it would be fine. If they couldn't be defeated, they would just kill one group and replace them with another. But the real problem was this damn Little Ice Age. This was not something that could be resisted by human power. After all, no matter how capable he was, he couldn't create food out of thin air.
In addition, the combat effectiveness of the army was extremely poor. Not only did it face the retreat of the Jiannu, but it couldn't even eliminate some large-scale rebel forces. How could such an army protect the Ming Dynasty?
In the final analysis, it was still a matter of money. If there was no money to pay the military salary, who would sell it to you?life, and now the Ming Dynasty lacks money and food the most.
It is said that if the Jiannu army is less than 10,000, it is invincible, but there is a second half to this sentence, that is, the Ming army is invincible if it is not paid enough.
So when Wu Yu learned that he was the emperor who hanged himself in the southeast tree in history, his first thought was to run away, otherwise he would be the king of the country.
But when he thought of Zhu Youxiao's protection of him when he was a child, he couldn't bear it.
And looking at Zhu Youxiao's appearance, he obviously knew that he didn't have much time left, so he asked those questions in the Huajia Restaurant to see if he was suitable to sit on the throne of this country. If not, he was afraid that he would hand over the throne to other princes with similar blood, such as Prince Fu Zhu Changxun, but now it seems that he has passed the test.
In addition, there is also a consciousness in his heart that constantly affects him and prevents him from leaving the Ming Dynasty.
Wu Yu knew that it was the residual consciousness of his predecessor Zhu Youjian. He was obviously worried about his brother Zhu Youxiao, and even more worried about the foundation of the old Zhu family in the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. That's why Wu Yu has been trying to influence him after he recovered his memory.
If this matter is not handled well, I'm afraid Wu Yu's martial arts will be difficult to maintain in this life, not to mention any longevity plan.
"Oh, annoying!"
When Wu Yu thought that he was tied to such a dynasty that was about to perish, he became more and more irritable.
"Fifth brother, fifth brother!"
Just when Wu Yu was irritable, a familiar female voice came from a distance.
Wu Yu knew that it was the Yunluo Princess from the daytime.
Yunluo Princess's real name is Zhu Huiti, the eighth sister of Zhu Youjian and his brother, and also their most beloved sister.
Although the brothers did not have a good life because of Concubine Zheng when they were young, it did not affect their relationship with this sister at all.
There were even several times when Li Xianshi bullied the two brothers in order to please Concubine Zheng, and it was the younger sister who begged for mercy, so they were really good to the younger sister.
In order to let her control her own marriage, Zhu Youxiao even specially conferred her the title of county lord instead of princess!
