Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Huang Zicheng said: "The king of Yan is powerful, he is the leader of all the kings, and he is also your majesty's uncle. How can he point the finger at the king of Yan? If the army is mobilized according to what Qi Shangshu said, if there is a war, the people of the world will be defeated." How should I treat Your Majesty?"

Zhu Yunqi hesitated immediately, he cared about the opinions of the world.

"What does Mr. Huang think?"

Huang Zicheng said: "The other kings had a lot of lawlessness when they were the first emperors, and they were famous for cutting them, and they took advantage of the righteousness. I thought that we could start with other kings first. This would also reduce the wings of King Yan and prevent King Yan from inciting the kings to rebel. And King Zhou is the younger brother of King Yan, why not start with King Zhou first."

Zhu Yunqi thought about it.

Seeing this, Qi Tai immediately distinguished himself from Huang Zicheng. For a while, the two argued that the public was right, and the mother-in-law was right. The quarrel was so intense that Zhu Yunqi didn't know what to do.

In fact, upon serious analysis, both of their approaches make sense.

But Zhu Yunqi forgot what Zhu Yuanzhang taught him, to be kind to the military, to win the hearts of the military, and then to cut down the feudal clan when the situation is complete, not to mention easy, and there will be no major turmoil. With his heart towards the imperial court, even if Zhu Di can fight again, how many troops can he resist?

However, Zhu Yunqi did not do anything according to what Zhu Yuanzhang said. Instead, under the persuasion of Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, he repeatedly denied and revised Zhu Yuanzhang's policy.

In the room, Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng were still arguing, neither of them convinced the other.

In the end, the noisy Zhu Yunqi had a headache, Zhu Yunqi slapped the table and said, "Enough."

Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng shut up at the same time.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Yunwen said firmly: "I have just ascended to the Great Treasure, and if I don't want to fight with the King of Yan, let's start with the King of Zhou." The evidence of the king's crimes, and then arrest, must be successful once, the matter is settled here, there is no need to discuss it again, and I hope that everyone will work together and not let me down."

All three of Qi Tai bowed down and said yes.

Huang Zicheng's face was a little smug, Qi Tai sighed in his heart when he saw it, this time the debate was for him to see clearly, who is Zhu Yunqi's most trusted person, he was a little disappointed, thinking to himself, it seems that he can't be with Huang Zicheng in the future Do more disputes.

Outside Fengtian Hall, the heavy rain was still falling.

It was less than three months after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, and Zhu Yunwen had promised Zhu Yuanzhang that he would 'respect him with virtue and rule him with etiquette...', but he forgot about it.

The Jianwen Emperor, who was praised by many people for his benevolence and righteousness, started gearing up to attack his uncles.

And it's still ruthless!

It's just that the Hongwu Emperor who passed away was pitiful. After experiencing the loss of his father, wife, and son, he had to go through a hasty burial, being denied political views by his most beloved grandson, and his sons being deposed by the new emperor he identified. was forced to die.

……

Chapter 232 - Reverse or not?

In a hurry, time came to August.

Most people in Beiping City didn't realize that a monstrous storm was brewing in the Ming Dynasty. After feeling sad about the death of Emperor Hongwu, everyone gradually returned to their peaceful lives in the past.

Zhen Wu was no exception, he didn't show too many abnormalities, and he came to the Prince Yan's mansion on business as usual.

On the right side of the front hall of King Yan's Mansion is the commander of the pro-army. Zhen Wu, as the commander of the right guard, has his own class. Return to your classroom.

Zhen Wu asked Cao Xiaoman to open the window to ventilate, and at the same time unloaded the burdensome things on his body, so that he could work for a while. After he sat down, other guards had already brought tea. Zhen Wu took a sip in satisfaction, and then began He picked up the booklet on the table and started to deal with official duties.

He is in charge of the training of the right guard, which involves ordnance, defense, drills, etc., so although Zhen Wu needs to go to various barracks frequently, he also needs to work from time to time.

Zhen Wu dealt with it in one go for an hour, and when he was basically done with it, he raised his head and got up, while stretching his waist to relax his muscles and bones, while habitually strolling over to Chen Xian next door.

There was a tall stack of official brochures on Chen Xian's desk.

"Yo, it looks busier today." Zhen Wu said gloatingly.

Chen Xian is another commander in the Right Guard Army, responsible for farming matters. It is now August and the autumn harvest is about to come, so Chen Xian is as busy as a dog these days, and has almost no free time.

Compared with the happiness of fishing, what makes Zhen Wu happier is the busier figure of his colleagues.

Although it is not righteous, it is happy.

Chen Xian raised his head and glared at Zhen Wu angrily. Just as he was about to speak, someone from the management department came over with a stack of business affairs. Zhen Wu burst out laughing. Chen Xian took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. While burying his head in official duties, he said bitterly.

"You wait, there will always be a time when you are busy, and then I will go to your side every day to watch you do business."

Zhen Wu pouted, not worried about this at all.

The busiest time for him was when there was a military situation. Normally at this time, Zhen Wu had no chance to sit in the squad room at all, and he had to go around one by one, especially when he was still in charge of the right guard cavalry.

next moment.

Chen Xian probably thought of this too, and when he was annoyed, he accidentally wrote a wrong word on his hand. This time, Chen Xian was even more annoyed, and when he threw down the pen, he yelled irritably.

Zhen Wu smiled even more happily.

Chen Xian patted his head angrily and said: "Zhen Wu, you are really annoying. You said you wouldn't go to the barracks properly. What are you doing in the squad every day these days? What's there to do here? You're not innocent sin?"

Zhen Wu shook his head with a smile. He couldn't tell Chen Xian that he came to the classroom every day because he didn't want to miss the opportunity, and he wanted to wait for Zhu Di to be summoned immediately so that he could participate in Zhu Di's great cause.

Is it a concept to be present and not present at the first time?

totally not.

Just when Zhen Wu was about to make some nonsense, Cao Xiaoman ran over suddenly, his face was flustered, his feet were unsteady for a moment, and he almost fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Zhen Wu immediately frowned in dissatisfaction.

Cao Xiaoman is not a brat now, he has experienced a lot of experience in these years, not only resourceful, but also quite stable, otherwise Zhen Wu would not have entrusted all fifty of his personal guards to Cao Xiaoman.

But now that Cao Xiaoman is like this, how can he not be disappointed.

Zhen Wu didn't wait for Cao Xiaoman to speak, and directly reprimanded him in a cold voice: "There's no need to panic! If you can't walk steadily on the road, I'll offer up your legs."

Knowing that Zhen Wu was angry, Cao Xiaoman calmed down quickly, and then said: "Reporting the matter, there was a notice from the front saying that the king of Zhou had conspiracy, but he was reported by the second son of the king of Zhou, and has now been arrested by Cao Guogong." , and the court's decree has been announced to the world, Zhou Wang was demoted to a commoner, and moved to Menghua, Yunnan."

"What?" Chen Xian stood up in surprise.

Zhen Wu was mentally prepared, so he was not surprised. He just thought that the big event he had been waiting for for many years was finally coming, but the next moment, he thought of Cao Xiaoman's words, and frowned: "The second son of King Zhou denounced? Ha, there are still people in this world. Did the son tell his father?"

You can't go to death if you cheat.

After Chen Xian was surprised, he also looked dazed when he heard Zhen Wu's words. This is really an anecdote.

What does the second son of King Zhou want to do?Grab the position of the son of the world?If the king of Zhou was stripped of his title, what else could he grab? Chen Xian thought about it, and suddenly his eyes flashed, no, if he got someone's favor, or if he got someone's instructions, the second son of Zhou king could really get something. big pen.

If this is the case, no matter whether the king of Zhou really has conspiracy or not, he is afraid that he will inevitably be accused of unwarranted crimes.

Chen Xian looked at Zhen Wu.

Zhen Wu's eyes were also flashing with thought at this moment. The two looked at each other, and they understood each other instantly. The other party had figured out the key point. Then, they all thought that Zhu Yunqi was cruel enough. How long has it been since he succeeded?Before King Zhou made any noise, he was cleaned up neatly.

Thinking of this, Zhen Wu couldn't sit still anymore, he raised his legs and walked out.

Chen Xian asked suspiciously, "Why are you going?"

"See Your Highness, go down." Zhen Wu left without turning his head.

Chen Xian was taken aback for a moment, then jumped up the next moment, chasing after Zhen Wu while cursing: "You are a bloody thief, you went to see His Highness, and you didn't call me."

Zhen Wu curled his lips, and went to Zhu Di to show his presence and show his loyalty. If he could do it, he would do it. If he couldn't do it, it would be meaningless to be reminded. Let's get stronger together.

However, Zhen Wu would not stop Chen Xian from catching up. They chatted and walked towards Zhu Di's office.

However, what Zhen Wu didn't expect was that when he came to Zhu Di's study, there were already several generals waiting outside.

Leaving aside Guan Tong, Tang Yun, and Commander Xie Li Sanwei, even Zhu Neng, Zhang Yu, Qiu Fu and others were all waiting outside the study room. Chen Xian was a little surprised, but Zhen Wu secretly scolded these people as real thieves. He also hurriedly came to the crowd.

They all knew that although Zhu Di was brought up under Empress Ma's knee since he was a child, he was the same mother and brother as King Zhou. Now that something happened to King Zhou, why didn't Zhu Di feel touched.

What's more, the people present, through this incident, no one would have guessed that Zhu Yunwen was secretly coming towards the kings, and as the leader of the kings and the most powerful Zhu Di, how could he really stay out of the matter.

If something happened to Zhu Di, then they would not be implicated to death, at least they would have lived forever. If they were lucky enough to be assigned to an insignificant place to keep their official positions, it would be considered a high incense.

So, no matter what, they didn't want Zhu Di, the backbone, to fall.

Zhen Wu came to Guan Tong and asked, "Is His Highness in there?"

Guan Tong nodded and said, "After getting the news, His Highness invited Master Daoyan."

Zhen Wu hummed, this is not what Zhen Wu thought. Since Zhu Di entered Beiping, Dao Yan has been Zhu Di's most important adviser. Whether it is military affairs or repeated expeditions, Zhu Di has often asked for advice. Yan.

"How long has it been?" Zhen Wu asked again with a suppressed voice.

Guan Tong just wanted to answer.

Zhu Di's voice suddenly came from the study.

"A group of people are chattering outside, let me get the hell out of here."

Everyone immediately looked at each other and said nothing, but no one wanted to lead in. Tang Yun rolled his eyes and said to Guan Tong and Zhen Wu, "You two are the one who quarreled, Your Highness, hurry up and take the lead."

Zhen Wu and Guan Tong's faces turned dark all of a sudden.

They are not stupid, if one or two people come here, not only can they sell well in front of Zhu Di, but they will not be reprimanded, but a group of people gather at the door of Zhu Di's study, what is the matter, if they don't get scolded by Zhu Di, they will be damned.

And now it is obvious who takes the lead and who gets scolded.

Who is willing to take the thunder for others? It's uncomfortable to find this.

Zhen Wu said with a dark face: "Commander Tang, you are not authentic. I just came here, so how can I say that it is His Highness we quarreled with? Besides, my immediate boss is here, so I can't talk about it." I'll take the lead, if you let Commander Guantong take the lead, then take the lead, and it would be boring to take me along."

Listening to Zhen Wu's words, Guan Tong nodded repeatedly in the first part, but stared at the second part.

But he was in a hurry to speak before he came, thanking the gift in silence all the time, muttering: "What are you two talking about?" He walked up to Zhen Wu, pushed Zhen Wu and walked forward: "Don't talk to me. Your Highness has been kept waiting for a long time, and if your son-in-law is not available at this time, who will you let?"

Guan Tong and Tang Yun reacted very quickly, and they immediately stopped targeting each other tacitly, nodded, and directly helped Xie Li push Zhen Wu.

All three are commanders.

Zhen Wu couldn't really refute it seriously, and was pushed straight into Zhu Di's study within two steps. Seeing this, Zhen Wu could only curse inwardly, the three old foxes, and then honestly led everyone towards Zhu Di.

Zhu Di's face was gloomy, and he didn't need to guess, he knew that Zhu Di was in a bad mood because of King Zhou's affairs, and sure enough, it was as expected.

After Zhu Di saw the crowd coming in, he directly angrily said: "You are at least a thousand households, don't you have military affairs? What are you doing at the entrance of my study when you have nothing to do? Could it be that you want to see if I am dead? I told you that I am fine. If you all have nothing to do, I will let you go to the camp to practice with the soldiers..."

Zhen Wu and the others all lowered their heads and listened to Zhu Di swearing, but no one took it to heart. They all knew that after Zhu Di got angry, he would suppress his temper in front of soldiers or people who were not close to him. In front of a confidant, sometimes scolding is very unpleasant.

But there is no way, whoever makes someone the boss, just bear with it, and the boss has nothing to choose except for this, and he not only trusts his own people, but also is very generous.

Cursing and cursing, Zhu Di turned to look at Zhen Wu.

Zhen Wu couldn't help feeling flustered, he knew that the first one to come in would bear most of Zhu Di's anger, while the others had no expression on their faces after seeing this scene, but they all breathed a sigh of relief in secret joy.

They looked at Zhen Wu who gave everyone a thunder, and couldn't help but want to give Zhen Wu a thumbs up.

Zhen Wu is a good guy.

Guantong, Chen Xian, including Zhu Neng, who took over Zhu Liang's class from Hongwu in 28 years, were still gloating in their hearts and muttering silently, "Zhen Wu, you also have today, so it's no wonder you don't get scolded as a grandson this time."

At this time, Zhu Di must have really suppressed a lot of anger in his heart. He pointed to Zhen Wu in a deep voice and asked, "Come on, what are you doing here?"

After Zhu Di said this sentence, his face became more and more serious. Obviously, if Zhen Wu did not answer this sentence well, Zhu Di would directly vent his anger on Zhen Wu.

But no one thought of it.

Zhen Wu looked at Zhu Di with concern in his eyes, and then spoke softly and sincerely.

"Actually, it's nothing important. I was just worried about my father, so I wanted to come to accompany my father. I didn't expect other generals to be there."

The words are very simple, there is nothing special about it, at most it is an explanation that he and the generals did not come here together.

But the effect is significant.

After hearing this, Zhu Di opened his mouth, but finally said nothing, and suppressed his depression. Seeing Zhen Wu's sincere expression, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

He knew that Zhen Wu seldom called his father king. Since Zhen Wu and Zhu Yuying got married, except when Zhen Wu and Zhu Yuying returned to the Yan Palace, they called him a few times with Zhu Yuying, and they usually called him the rest of the time. Your Highness.

Now, at the moment when Zhu Yunwen is pointing his sword at the kings, Zhen Wu even addresses him as his father in public.

It means that Zhu Di's heart was touched, and he couldn't bear to reprimand Zhen Wu when he saw Zhen Wu's sincere appearance. After all, Zhen Wu changed his name to care about him as a son-in-law. What's wrong.

Guan Tong and the others were a little surprised by Zhen Wu's performance, but after everyone thought about it, they were not bad. They came to Zhu Di at this juncture, and they were equally loyal.

But looking at Zhu Di's feeling, let Zhen Wu take away the benefits.

Tang Yun, the Commander of the Central Guard, has always been quick-witted. After being a step behind Zhen Wu, he was not discouraged, and hurried forward and said: "Your Highness, I am also worried about Your Highness. The matter of the King of Zhou happened suddenly. Please take care of your health. All of us are still counting on following His Highness to conquer Mobei and make contributions."

The others gasped, and before they had time to think about it, they quickly agreed.

Besides, the soup is gone.

"Your Highness, we are the same."

One by one voices sounded continuously.

……

It's just that after saying this, everyone felt a little heartbroken, and they had a good opportunity to show off, but in the end they could only say one word, which is so uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, they looked at Zhen Wu one by one, sighing in their hearts, it's not at all strange for this bastard to climb up to the commander of the capital one day.
