Chapter 1 I really don’t want to supervise the country

February of the ninth year of Chongzhen

The soldiers stationed in Ningxia during the Ming Dynasty mutinied because they were at a loss for pay.

The hungry soldiers gathered together and besieged the government office. The governor Youqiandu and the censor Wang Ji were unable to pay the hungry soldiers, so they made a noise and killed them.

Deputy Military Envoy Ding Qirui led his troops to suppress the attack, captured the seven leaders and executed them immediately, and the mutiny was finally put under control.

Almost at the same time, Shaanxi suffered a major famine after suffering from successive years of drought and insect disasters.

At that time, the hungry people had no food, so they had to eat tree bark, grass leaves, and tree bark. When the grass leaves were gone, people ate each other.

A great famine also occurred in Henan. King Yujian of the Tang Dynasty reported that there was a famine in Nanyang, Henan, and there were even mothers who cooked their daughters for food.

Before Emperor Chongzhen could take a breath, bad news came again. Rogue bandits were killing people and causing chaos everywhere. Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng broke into Dengzhou and killed the famous general Tang Jiuzhou and marched to Dengzhou.

In March, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng divided their forces and entered Xing'an and other places, and then joined forces with Zhang Xianzhong's bandits in Hanzhong...

In April, Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor and made Shengjing his capital.

Changed the Yuan Dynasty to Chongde, taking this year as the first year of Chongde, changed the country's name from Jin to Qing, and changed the family name to Manzhou.

Emperor Chongzhen was diligent and worked hard day and night. He never had a good night's sleep in the nine years he had been in power. He lived a very frugal life and was very weak.

A variety of bad news raids, especially the incident of Emperor Taiji being kidnapped and proclaimed emperor, became the last straw for Chongzhen.

"Wow……"

A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and Emperor Chongzhen's eyes went black and he fainted.

Fortunately, the eunuch Wang Chengen hugged him, otherwise he would have fallen into the Huangji Palace.

"Your Majesty, please don't scare me..."

Wang Chengen, the most loyal eunuch in history, hugged Emperor Chongzhen and burst into tears, causing the officials to fall into chaos.

"His Majesty……"

The chief minister of the cabinet, Wen Tiren, the Duke of Chengguo, Zhu Chunchen, and other civil and military ministers were frightened and exclaimed at a loss.

The British Duke walked quickly to Chongzhen and stretched out his hand to test his breathing.

Finding that the emperor was still breathing weakly, Zhang Zhiji hurriedly shouted:

"Your Majesty is just in poor health, it's not a problem. Don't panic, everyone, help your Majesty back to the palace and get treatment from the royal doctor..."



Qianqing Palace

Under the treatment of the imperial doctor, Emperor Chongzhen had woken up. He was lying on the dragon bed in a daze, with no strength in his body and could hardly open his eyes.

Beside his dragon bed, Prince Zhu Cihong and Princess Zhu Weinao of Kunxing burst into tears.

Empress Zhou, Concubine Yuan Guifei and Concubine Tian Guifei had already burst into tears.

His son died in infancy, and his husband fell into the water and died when he was young. After finally pushing Chongzhen to the throne, Emperor Chongzhen had another accident.

Queen Yi'an Zhang Yan was extremely sad and cursed in her heart the injustice done to the Ming Dynasty.

Just like this, one day passed, and Emperor Chongzhen still showed no signs of improvement.

The diligent Emperor Chongzhen was absent from the court meeting for the first time since he came to power.

The next day he finally opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty, you are finally awake. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, is awake..."

Following Wang Chengen's cry, the queen, concubines, princes and princesses gathered around Chongzhen's bed and shed tears of surprise.

"Your Majesty, you scared me to death, thank God for blessing your Majesty..."

"Father..."

Seeing his relatives in front of him, Chongzhen tried his best to smile:

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Wang Daban, the chief minister of the cabinet, Wen Tiren, the Minister of Staff, the British Duke, Cheng Guogong and other ministers have come to see me!"

"According to the order!"

Wang Chengen did not dare to neglect and immediately went to deliver the order. Within two sticks of incense, everyone hurried to Qianqing Palace and knelt down in front of the Chongzhen dragon bed:

"See Your Majesty!"

Emperor Chongzhen, supported by Wang Chengen and Queen Zhou, half-sat and leaned on the dragon bed:

"My dear friends, please forgive me for being free!"

"Thank you Lord for your kindness, long live my emperor!"

Behind the scenes, all the ministers bowed their heads and stood in front of the dragon bed, waiting for the emperor's will!

Emperor Chongzhen took a short rest and said:

"The Ming Dynasty is extremely unstable now. I am temporarily unable to handle the government affairs. The country cannot live without a king for a day. I have decided to let the prince Zhu Cihong supervise the country. The prince is young and Wang Qing and others will try their best to assist..."

"this……"

All the ministers were stunned. They did not expect that the emperor would let the prince supervise the country so quickly.

Especially Wen Tiren, the chief minister of the cabinet, who believed that the emperor was in poor health and would hand over all important responsibilities to the cabinet!

The old boy is good at party fighting and will get rid of anyone who disobeys. He doesn't want others to distract him from his power.

Before Chongzhen finished speaking, Wen Tiren hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"No, Your Majesty, your dragon body will be restored after a few days of training. The imperial court still has the support of the cabinet. Besides, the crown prince is young and should not be overworked..."

Emperor Chongzhen did not expect that Wen Tiren would object. Wen Tiren had been his favorite before, and he would fully support whatever Chongzhen did.

Because he was good at figuring out the holy will, Chongzhen's cabinet kept changing like a revolving door, and Wen Tiren was still able to sit firmly in the position of chief minister for eight years.

Everyone else looked at Wen Tiren and did not dare to speak. Only Zhang Zhiji stared at Wen Tiren angrily.

If Wen Tiren dared to be disrespectful to Emperor Chongzhen on his sickbed again, Zhang Zhiji would not mind throwing him out of the Qianqing Palace.

Although Emperor Chongzhen was very dissatisfied with Wen Tiren's performance today, he ignored Wen Tiren, leaving a sentence and closing his eyes again:

"I have made up my mind, Wang Daban will pass the decree..."



The imperial edict had been issued, and Wen Tiren did not dare to object. After receiving the edict, all the ministers withdrew from Qianqing Palace.

In this way, the seven-year-old prince Zhu Cixiang was about to start supervising the country. Faced with the mess of the Ming Dynasty, the young prince really didn't want to supervise the country.

But he did not dare to resist the decree, so he could only be chased away by Emperor Chongzhen.

In his previous life, Zhu Cixiang was a college student majoring in history. Three years ago, he was stabbed several times by his love rival while playing poker with a female classmate. As a result, his spirit accidentally penetrated the body of the four-year-old crown prince.

It would be fine if he traveled through time and became the prince of the Hongwu Dynasty, Zhu Biao, or the grandson of the Yongle Dynasty, Zhu Zhanji.

But his soul happened to travel through the body of Zhu Cixiang, the last crown prince in the late Ming Dynasty.

Although he knew the late Ming Dynasty very well, facing the suspicious, stubborn and face-saving Emperor Chongzhen, he could only wait to perish with the Ming Dynasty.

How to save the country from natural and man-made disasters and traitors in the late Ming Dynasty? If Zhu Cixiang did not do a good job in supervising the country, he would be despised by Chongzhen and reviled by the people.

If he does it well, it will be more troublesome, and he will most likely be tortured to death by the civil servants and nobles. He may accidentally fall into the water or be poisoned at any time.

Zhu Cixiang felt that he could live a few more years as the prince in peace, and the prisoner country might be on the road ahead of time, no matter good or bad. Thinking of this, Zhu Cixiang couldn't help but curse his mother secretly:

"Nima, I really don't want to supervise the country. Others have golden fingers when they travel through time. Some people summon soldiers and horses, some bring warehouses, some drive tanks, and some bring submachine guns. As for me, I have nothing in three years.

How to supervise the country..."

Just when Zhu Cixiang was in an extremely low mood, a pleasant female voice suddenly sounded in his mind:

"Ding, congratulations to the host, Supervisor Country, for awakening the sign-in system. You can get points and physical items by checking in. The points can be exchanged for everything in the system!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for getting the novice gift package. No points are needed to redeem the novice gift package and can be used at any time."

"Is this... Goldfinger is here? Goldfinger is waiting for me to supervise the country? Damn..."

The system prompted that the golden finger was activated, and happiness came so suddenly that Zhu Cixiang instantly entered a state of confusion.

Seeing Zhu Cixiang in a daze, Queen Zhou stretched out her jade hand to pat Zhu Cixiang's little face and comforted him:

"Your Majesty, my mother understands how you feel. My father is not in good health and you have to work hard for a few days. The country of the Ming Dynasty will be yours sooner or later, so you should practice it in advance!" I like the Ming Dynasty. In the prosperous age, from the time when the prince supervised the country, please collect it: (www
