Family ancestor Zhu Chongba: What happened to getting your daughter pregnant?

Residential houses in the city.

"Do your best and I won't treat you badly."

"As for them, consider them a great gift from me to help you clean up your family."

Zhu Yunxi hesitated for a moment, raised his hand to signal Xiao Huan to stand up, and then said calmly.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, from now on, those who hold such humble positions will be treated with disgrace!"

Xiao Huan nodded heavily and said decisively.

Zhu Yunxi didn't say anything else, nodded with satisfaction, turned around and walked out.

Xiao Huan hurriedly followed, without looking at the corpses on the ground.

"Your Highness, are all the things that have happened in the past few days true..."

"Do you really want to know?"

Xiao Huan followed, not knowing whether it was out of curiosity or something, but suddenly asked a question coldly.

But before he finished speaking, he heard Zhu Yunxi's cold rhetorical question!

Hearing this, Xiao Huan immediately shut up and didn't dare to ask any more questions!

Not long after, the news of the deaths of Captain Fang and several Jinwu Guards spread quickly, but the explanation given by the Jinwu Guards was that they were attacked while tracking down the Beiyuan spies, and Captain Fang died in a fierce battle with several Jinwu Guards!

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard about this, he was furious and ordered Wang Defa to issue another imperial edict to Peiping, ordering King Yan Zhu Di to quickly find out the traitors in the army, and by the eighth day of October, all the Bei Yuan armies invading the northern border must be eliminated!

This is the third imperial edict sent to the north since Zhu Yunxi discovered the Beiyuan conspiracy!

...

Seven days later.

Xi'an Mansion.

In the Palace of Prince Qin, Prince Zhu Ping of Qin looked at a secret report from Kyoto in his hand, his brows could not help but wrinkled slightly, his expression solemn.

He did not expect that so many things would happen in Kyoto in just a few days, and what he did not expect even more was that the second emperor's nephew was also implicated and was now banned from the Splendid Palace by his father's decree. Pass!

Moreover, after this incident, Zhu Yunxi has firmly secured his position as grandson, and his momentum is at its peak!

He was a little lucky to have such an ally in Kyoto, but at the same time, he couldn't help but start to worry. If the nephew of the Third Emperor really secured his position as the crown prince, would it really become the biggest obstacle on his way to becoming emperor in the future? !

Once its wings are full, it will definitely be difficult to deal with!

"My lord, what's wrong with you?"

"What was mentioned in the letter?"

Pang Song, the commander of the royal guards of the Prince of Qin's Palace, noticed Zhu Ping's suddenly solemn expression, bowed his hands and asked hesitantly.

Zhu Xi didn't say anything, but reached out and handed the secret report to Pang Song.

According to the rules, all news coming from Kyoto must be reported by Zhu Xi personally, and no one else can read it without permission!

"This is good news!"

"Lu Wenbo was killed, the Xie family fell, and the power of the Second Emperor's Sun and King Yan's factions were all destroyed. The prince is just sitting back and reaping the benefits!"

"And it seems that from now on, the feud between the Second Emperor's grandson and King Yan is completely closed!"

"But why does I feel that the prince seems to be preoccupied?"

After Pang Song read the secret report, his face was full of joy, and then he looked at Zhu Xi in confusion and asked.

"This is indeed great news!"

"But I am not happy! Xie Linzhou colluded with the party and was found out by Zhu Yunxi. Then he has gained another weight among the father and the civil and military officials!"

"Given time, I am really worried that he will be like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate, and no one will be able to suppress him anymore!"

Zhu Xi frowned and said thoughtfully.

"Is Your Highness worried about raising tigers?"

Hearing this, Pang Song couldn't help but look a little solemn, and asked hesitantly.

"It doesn't matter if he is a tiger. I'm afraid he is a dragon. Once out of control, he may fly into the sky!"

Zhu Xi said with a sullen face and worry.

"Can't you?"

"In recent times, he has made a lot of achievements and is highly appreciated by His Majesty. However, even so, he has no foundation in the court and has no power of his own at all."

"Even if there are people in the court who want to support him, they will never risk their lives to stand up for him. The Second Emperor and Prince Yan will not agree!"

"Those courtiers are not stupid. They know very well what kind of person the Third Emperor's grandson is. They will never leave their future to a dude, right?"

"It is impossible for His Majesty to pass the throne to someone like him!"

Pang Song thought for a moment and said with certainty.

"Maybe not before, but now, who can say for sure?"

"It seems that we still can't take it lightly. We'll inform the spies in Kyoto that we must monitor him closely. Zhu Yunxi's every move must be reported to me!"

After Zhu Ping hesitated for a moment, he shook his head and said coldly.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Pang Song hurriedly and respectfully agreed, and then immediately sent a message to Kyoto.

...

At the same time, Zhu Di, the king of Yan who was far away in Peiping, had also drafted a memorial to report to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that the traitors in the Yanbei army had been found. In addition to the two main generals, there were enough rebels, big and small. Hundreds of people have all been secretly monitored.

The eighth day of October has arrived in a blink of an eye, and the Beiyuan army really crossed the border and attacked Peiping at night!

But what they were waiting for was not the traitor's cooperation inside and outside, but the Yanbei army's strong counterattack and catching a turtle in a urn!

The King of Yan, Zhu Di, made a great contribution to his crime and personally led an army of 200,000. He fought fiercely with an army of 100,000 Bei Yuan for several days, and finally succeeded in defeating the Bei Yuan army!

Kill tens of thousands of enemies!

There are countless military supplies and weapons captured!

After this battle, the Northern Yuan Dynasty suffered heavy losses again and was on its last legs!

After Zhu Di, the King of Yan who made such military exploits, sent the news of victory back to Kyoto, he was not rewarded by his father Zhu Yuanzhang, but only said four words briefly.

The merits are equal to the faults!

Many people in the court were talking about this, not because they were grievances against King Yan Zhu Di, but they didn't expect His Majesty to be so indifferent to King Yan who had such outstanding military exploits.

But Zhu Di was very clear in his heart. He knew that the reason for this was all because of the second emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, so he put all his resentment on Zhu Yunwen's head!

In just a few days, officials from various places who secretly had good relations with the Splendid Palace frequently got into trouble. At worst, they lost their official positions, and at worst, they lost their lives!

The power of the Splendid Palace faction has been lost again!

However, Zhu Di also knew the seriousness and knew that his father had begun to suspect, so he did not directly attack the important officials in the Six Ministries of Kyoto who had good relations with the Jinxiu Palace. He just found some small fish and shrimps to vent his anger.

But for Jinxiu Palace, the loss is really not small!

However, Zhu Yunxi, the biggest profiteer, acted like he had nothing to do with him and didn't know anything about it. Although he had secured his position as grandson, he was still focused on making money and living in debauchery, ignoring what was going on outside the window.

...

Late October (lunar calendar).

Winter has arrived, and a heavy snowfall has fallen continuously for three days and three nights, turning the entire Kyoto into a vast expanse of white. A biting cold wind has swept through it, making people's teeth chatter with the cold. They dare not go out unless there is something important. .

Changxing Hou Mansion.

In the side hall of the backyard, two old men were sitting opposite each other, drinking tea. There was a pot of hot coals placed in the middle. The warm current was roasting the two of them, making their faces turn red.

The person on the left is Geng Bingwen, the Marquis of Changxing.

The person on the right is eight years older than Geng Bingwen, a founding hero and a believer in Tang He, the Duke of the country!

While the two were drinking, they were chatting and laughing, but the only one who spoke was Geng Bingwen, because Tang He had been unable to speak for many years since he became aphasic due to illness.

They are all veterans of the court. They have made great contributions on the battlefield. Due to their old age, they are all idle at home now. However, their prestige in the court is still the same as before. No one in the civil and military circles of the court dared to do so. Disrespectful.

"Who would have thought that the secret of the Northern Yuan army's intention to unite with the traitors in the army to invade our Ming Dynasty was actually discovered by His Highness Taisun. It is simply unexpected."

"Two months ago, he was a dandy who was despised by others and was even called a 'trash'. But now, he has transformed into His Majesty's most favored grandson and was even made a crown prince!"

After Geng Bingwen took a sip of tea, he glanced at Tang He and said meaningfully, with a trace of emotion on his face.

He still remembered that the first time he really remembered the name Zhu Yunxi was late at night a long time ago.

At that time, he was practicing calligraphy in his study. That night, His Highness the Grand Sun led his royal guards to kill Wu Tong, the most powerful adopted son of Lan Yu among Lan Yu's remaining party!

It seems that since that day, His Highness the Grandson has completely changed into a completely different person, rising all the way to his current status!

After hearing Geng Bingwen's words, Tang He, who was speechless, just pursed his lips and smiled without any expression.

He was very familiar with this grandson. Although they didn't have many interactions with each other, his demeanor of neither being humble nor arrogant during the canonization ceremony had long been imprinted in his mind...
