After Wang Shiyuan was sent to Zhenjiang, the Military Intelligence Department immediately searched for the eunuchs and palace servants who had traveled south from the Imperial Palace in Beijing, as well as officials who had met the sons of Chongzhen.

After identification and inquiries by these people, although they did not dare to confirm that Wang Shiyuan was Zhu Cihuan, the fifth son of Chongzhen, they were sure that Wang Shiyuan came out of the palace, otherwise he would not remember the situation in the palace so clearly, even the two brothers. Know the nickname.

Whether Wang Shiyuan is Zhu Cihuan or not is of great importance, and Zhou Shixiang did not dare to be careless. Although Emperor Dingwu mentioned that Emperor Xiaolie had a son Xu Liuliu in Jiangsu and Zhejiang when he was in Wencun, this does not mean that this Wang Shiyuan must be Zhu Cihuan. So he needs a yes answer, not "maybe" or "maybe".

Zhou Shixiang attaches great importance to this matter, not only to find out whether this "Third Prince Zhu" is true or not, but more importantly, to find out whether this "Third Prince Zhu" came out on his own initiative or someone behind him asked him to come out. The results of the two are the same, but the nature is by no means the same, and it is also related to how Zhou Shixiang treats this "third prince Zhu".

Zhou Shixiang was worried that there might be someone behind Wang Shiyuan who was secretly operating, making waves through this "Third Prince Zhu", who might be the son of Emperor Zhenxiao. His suspicions are not unreasonable, because after Nandu, the lineage of Zhu Ming's clan was in chaos, and many liars and interested people appeared one after another. There is no shortage of Donglin party members, the spokespersons of the Jiangnan gentry, who are making waves.

The "Great Compassion Case" was nothing, but it was finally confirmed that it was indeed a liar who claimed to be a prince of the Ming Dynasty, who escaped from the military chaos and became a monk. This man first called himself the King of Qi appointed by Emperor Chongzhen, and later changed his name to the King of Wu. He also said, "King Lu is kind to the people, everyone obeys them, and he should be the big one." fraud. Therefore, after the Jiuqing Kedao Trial, the liar was beheaded.

The biggest impact of the "Great Sadness Case" may be to make King Lu's reputation better, but there is nothing else. However, the "fake prince case" had a great impact. Not only did it really shake the Hongguang regime, but even today, many people believe that the young man who was executed by Hongguang was Crown Prince Xiao.

The fake prince was met by Mu Hu, a servant of Gao Mengji, the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple in the Chongzhen Dynasty, who met and traveled together on the way from the north to the south. When he went to bed at night, Mu Hu found the dragon pattern woven into the underwear of the young man, and asked his identity in surprise. The young man claimed to be the crown prince.

Mu Hu was taken aback and reported the matter to his master, Gao Mengji. Gao Mengji couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so he sent the boy to Suzhou and Hangzhou to hide. However, this young man often swaggers in public, shows a noble appearance, attracts people's attention, and whispers behind his back. Gao Mengji was afraid that this young man would implicate him, so he had to secretly play with the court. After Emperor Hongguang learned about it, he hurriedly dispatched an inner official to announce the summons with a royal letter, and ordered Jin Yiwei to take the boy back to custody.

Afterwards, Hongguang said to the ministers: "There is a childish son who said that he is the East Palace of the late emperor. If he is the son of the true late emperor, that is, my son, he should be raised and treated with great care, and he will not lose his place." Suiling Hou, Bo, Jiuqing, Hanlin, Ke, Dao, etc. Officials look at it together. Wang Duo, a scholar who had served as an instructor in the East Palace for three years, was naturally familiar with the appearance of the prince, but at a glance it was obvious that it was a traitor and a fake.

At that time, Wang Duo was not the only one who met Prince Zhu Cihong in Nanjing City. Liu Zhengzong and Li Jinglian, who were lecturers in the East Palace, all said that the prince's eyebrows were longer than his eyes, so they didn't know each other after seeing the fake prince. Emperor Hongguang was not at ease, so he deliberately asked Qiu Zhizhong, the **** from the Old East Palace, to recognize him. The fake prince saw Qiu Zhizhong, but he didn't know it, so Hongguang believed that the young man was a fake.

However, even if they knew that the young man was not the real prince, the Donglin party members who had always been dissatisfied with Hongguang's succession took the opportunity to stir up trouble and spread rumors, causing uproar among the people who didn't know the truth and civil officials and military generals from other places. The more the Hongguang court said it was false, the more suspicious it became. This matter continued until the Qing army occupied Nanjing, and the Hongguang court fell.

The biggest impact of this case is that it seriously weakened the legitimacy of Emperor Hongguang, which made the civil and military people dislike Hongguang. In addition, the Donglin party members spread a lot of rumors about Hongguang's "stupidity", which indirectly led to the rapid collapse of the Hongguang regime. With this lesson in mind, Zhou Shixiang naturally cannot repeat the same mistakes.

Although the Donglin Party is now down, most of the party members are officials in the Qing court, but their roots are in the Jiangnan gentry class, and they are being severely attacked by Zhou Shixiang, so suddenly there is a self-proclaimed son of Xiaohuang Wang Shiyuan. , Zhou Shixiang does not doubt that there is a ghost.

In the end, Zhou Shixiang wrote a secret letter to Zhang Huangyan, the minister of military affairs in Nandu, asking him to go to Zhenjiang to identify the true or false identity of Wang Shiyuan.

After Zhang Huangyan knew about this, he was also shocked, and quickly rushed to Zhenjiang in secret. After talking with Wang Shiyuan for half an hour, Zhang Huangyan came out and told Zhou Shixiang with certainty that this person was Zhu Cihuan, the fifth son of the late emperor.

There are old people in the Beijing palace who have identified and inquired, and there are officials who have seen Chongzhen’s sons, and Zhang Huangyan’s confirmation. Without the help of Zhou Shixiang’s previous life DNA technology, Wang Shiyuan’s identity has been confirmed in this era.

Zhou Shixiang believed that Zhang Huangyan would not admit his mistake and misunderstood, so he also believed that Wang Shiyuan was Zhu Cihuan. But he did not report it to Emperor Dingwu, and asked Zhang Huangyan not to leak the matter. On the one hand, he will continue to observe Wang Shiyuan for a period of time to ensure that nothing goes wrong. On the other hand, he also wanted to see if there was a hidden side behind this Wang Shiyuan.

After Zhang Huangyan hesitated, he agreed to Zhou Shixiang's request. Duke Cang Shui also didn't want to cause an uproar in the court because of the appearance of King Yong.

.........

Although Wang Shiyuan was under strict surveillance in Zhenjiang and was living under "house arrest", all supplies were abundant, and all his food seemed to be provided according to the prince's treatment. In just a few months, no one has seen him since, except that people kept coming to meet him at first. As for His Royal Highness King Qi, who was rumored to be slaughtering a pig like a pig, he never showed his face from beginning to end.

Wang Shiyuan felt uneasy and a little regretful. He should not take the initiative to admit that he was Zhu Cihuan. He was worried that he would be killed and silenced like the "pseudo prince" back then. Because he realized that although his status was noble, it was also dangerous. The danger comes from the dragon chair on which the Nine-Five Lord is sitting.

At the same time, Wang Shiyuan is also homesick and misses his three sons and two daughters. Since being sent to Zhenjiang, he has not known anything about the situation at home. He had begged those around him to "take care" of him, hoping that they would be able to pick up his family, but was told that his wife and children were doing well, but now they can't come to him.

After waiting endlessly, when Wang Shiyuan, who was isolated from the world, felt that he was going crazy, the courtyard door outside was pushed open, and then a ferocious, blind man yelled at the commander to see him.

.........

Standing in front of Zhou Shixiang, who was rumored to be drinking the liver of Manchurians, Wang Shiyuan couldn't help shaking his calf. Even though the other party wasn't scary, he even looked very Zhou Zheng, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"You don't have to be afraid. If you are really the son of Emperor Xiao, logically, I will still be your subject."

Zhou Shixiang had already known about Wang Shiyuan's cowardice and cowardice from the Ministry of Military Intelligence and the people who "took care" of him, but he did not expect that the son of Emperor Xiao was so cowardly. Even if he can look directly at himself bravely, at least it will make Zhou Shixiang feel that he is worthy of his father Chongzhen.

Wang Shiyuan didn't dare to speak, he lowered his head deeply there, his hands and legs were shaking, and even Zhou Shixiang could hear the trembling of his teeth.

"sit down."

Zhou Shixiang shook his head and asked Blind Li to bring a chair and put it behind Wang Shiyuan. Wang Shiyuan seemed to have never heard of it, standing there still motionless. Blind Li was a little impatient when he saw it, and stepped forward to press him down. As a result, just as his hand touched Wang Shiyuan, the other party jumped up in fright and panicked: "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"When did I say I was going to kill you?"

Wang Shiyuan's reaction made Zhou Shixiang not know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his hand to let Blind Li stand aside, so as not to really frighten His Royal Highness Yong Wang.

"You...you won't kill me?..." Wang Shiyuan's face was pale.

Zhou Shixiang pointed at the chair and said beyond doubt, "Sit down and talk."

"well..."

Wang Shiyuan, whose heart was beating wildly, sat stiffly on the chair, but he didn't dare to sit firmly on his buttocks, only a little bit. Blind Li couldn't help but look contemptuous when he saw it, thinking that this guy is the third prince, timid as a mouse.

Wang Shiyuan's performance made Zhou Shixiang frown: Is this person doing this on purpose, or is he really so timid by nature?

His brows slowly loosened, Zhou Shixiang remained calm, and asked Wang Shiyuan very calmly: "This king will ask you one more question now, are you really His Royal Highness, the fifth son of Emperor Xiao Huang?"

"I..."

Wang Shiyuan still didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Shixiang, his teeth clenched, and he finally whispered: "Return to His Highness Qi, I am Zhu Cihuan."

Zhou Shixiang nodded and asked him, "Since you are His Royal Highness Prince Yong, why didn't you stand up and lead the army and the people to fight against the Qing Dynasty?"

"This..."

Wang Shiyuan didn't know how to answer, because he was really afraid of the murderous Tartars. When he was in the palace when he was a child, he often saw his father, the emperor, sighing for the Tartars at Koubian. On the way to the south after escaping from Beijing, he saw countless atrocities by the Qing army. Those piles of headless corpses left a terrible imprint on his young mind that could never be worn away in his entire life.

He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to have his head cut off with a knife, so he hid, he hid everywhere, even if he saw many soldiers and civilians fighting for his Zhu family and the Tartars, he would not dare to bravely stand up and tell them own identity. He just wanted to live, live in peace. In order to survive, he even took the initiative to shave his hair and change his clothes, leaving the braid behind his head that his father hated most when he was alive.

Wang Shiyuan didn't say anything, he knew that what he had done in the past was really shameful, shame on himself, shame on his father, and even more shame on his ancestors. At this moment, he was really ashamed, even more regretful, and wondered why he had come out to reveal his identity.

Zhou Shixiang no longer pressed Wang Shiyuan, whose heartstrings had collapsed to the extreme, and seemed to hold his head in pain at any time. He can understand what the other party has done in the past, but he will not forgive him, because his surname is Zhu, and because he is the son of Emperor Xiao.

"I won't ask you about the past, but I want to ask you, since you have been incognito for so many years, why don't you continue to hide your identity and die, and instead come out and admit that you are His Royal Highness Prince Yong?"

Zhou Shixiang vaguely already had the answer to this question, but he wanted to hear Wang Shiyuan say it himself.

This question also made Wang Shiyuan regain a little composure and tranquility. He raised his head a little bit, although he still did not dare to look directly at Zhou Shixiang in front of him, but Zhou Shixiang could see his face clearly.

"I declare my identity because...because I am the blood of my father after all. Plus the southern capital has been restored, so I...I think, I can recognize my ancestors."

After speaking, Wang Shiyuan touched his head subconsciously, and it was no longer bald, but had long hair.

"Recognize your ancestors?"

Zhou Shixiang laughed. With laughter, he came to Wang Shiyuan and looked at him with a serious tone.

"You can recognize your ancestors, so do you know what your identity means? You have to understand that once the world accepts your identity, you are likely to become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, because you are the son of Emperor Xiao, in this world Who else's bloodline is more suitable for inheriting the Ming Dynasty?"

Hearing these words, Wang Shiyuan immediately shook his head violently, and said again and again: "I don't dare to think about it, I never dare to think about it..." For fear that Zhou Shixiang would think that he had the mind to be an emperor, Wang Shiyuan just knelt down and swore to the sky.

"I don't dare to think about it, then why do you recognize your ancestors? Wouldn't it be better for you to continue to be your teacher? Wouldn't it be better to continue to be Wang Shiyuan!"

Zhou Shixiang's face was very cold, so cold that Wang Shiyuan shivered, so scared that he couldn't say a word.

"Tell me~www.mtlnovel.com~ Why do you have the face to recognize your ancestors? What qualifications do you have to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors! What are you doing when thousands of Ming people fall under Manchu slaughtering knives? What are you doing when thousands of people with lofty ideals abandon their homes and their wives and bravely resist the Manchurians!"

Zhou Shixiang's tone was extremely stern, "You are busy hiding, you are busy taking care of your braids, you are busy giving birth to children, and you are busy being a servant of the Tartars! ... Now Manzhou People were beaten away, and you stood up. You want the world to know that you are the son of Emperor Xiao, how noble your blood is, and you want to become a prince of Ming Dynasty again, or even an emperor! I ask you, you Why do you stand up, why do you want all this!"
