"King Yan is so insidious, this must be King Yan himself who set fire to the palace and burned down the palace, but he wants to trap His Majesty with his unrighteous name" Huang Zicheng was so angry that his beard flew up, as soon as the early dynasty ended, without waiting for Emperor Jianwen to summon him, he himself followed Emperor Jianwen's ass and chased into the Zhengxin Palace, and as soon as he entered the main hall, he roared angrily.
Qi Tai, Lian Zining, and Jing Qing were a little weak-hearted, and the three of them glanced at each other without speaking.
More than a dozen royal relatives and princes and ministers complained to the emperor that the Yan Wangfu was flooded and their own mansion was affected, how heavy their losses were, and how many casualties were in the family, and asked the emperor to investigate the responsibility of the Yan Wangfu.
Among them, Huang Zhen Huang Imperial Envoy was the most sad, Huang Imperial Envoy was full of grief and indignation, when it came to the sore spot, he fainted several times, and then Zhu Yunwen really couldn't stand it, and when he fainted for the third time, he happily ordered the Golden Melon Warrior to put him down and drag him to the Tai Hospital to feed the medicine.
Immediately after that, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, came to the court to complain, and Zhu Di told Zhu Yunwen in detail about the assassination of the palace last night and the assassin's arson of the mansion, and asked His Majesty to administer justice for him.
This time, he even brought the injured guards, the captured crossbow machine blow arrows and other physical evidence outside the noon gate, and waited for the emperor to pass it on for examination.
This time, Zhu Di was neither arrogant nor arrogant, his attitude was sincere and calm, he just described the matter in detail, his tone was very calm, and he didn't even say anything to induce everyone to suspect the emperor, but as soon as Zhu Di only said that he was assassinated in the palace yesterday, everyone looked at the emperor and there was something wrong.
Yellow mud stained in the crotch of his pants, not is also, Zhu Yunwen tasted the taste of inarbness this time, he walked down the throne with a red face and a thick neck, helped the fourth uncle with his own hands, swore a curse and swore to promise that he would hunt down the murderer and ensure his safety, and reprimanded the officials of Ying Tianfu, Wucheng Soldiers and Horses, and the Criminal Department, and finally calmed Zhu Di down.
Zhu Yunwen immediately personally arranged for King Yan to temporarily move to King An's mansion, and King An was his companion, and sent heavy troops to protect him.
At the same time, he also personally promised that the imperial court would be responsible for rebuilding the Yan Wang's Mansion, and as for several other affected imperial relatives and civil and military ministers who were touched by the light of Yan Wang, they also gave some compensation.
When all this was properly arranged, and most of the time for the court meeting had been consumed, Zhu Yunwen had no intention of listening to the performance of the hundred officials, so he gave a wistful order to "disperse the court", and then threw off his sleeves and returned to the Zhengxin Palace.
"Your Majesty, according to the minister's opinion, it is better to send King Yan back to Beiping as soon as possible."
Fang Xiaoru said solemnly: "This matter, there is a good chance that King Yan himself did it, but as long as King Yan is in Beijing, no matter what happens to him, all the spearheads will be pointed at Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will have a hard time arguing."
If it goes on like this, I don't know what tricks King Yan will play, since we can't start in Jinling, let's send him away as soon as possible, as long as King Yan leaves Jinling safely, then all the unfavorable suspicions against His Majesty between the government and the opposition will naturally be self-defeating. ” Zhu Yunwen waved his hand dejectedly: "Send him away, send him away, send him away quickly, I don't want to see him again for a moment." ” Qi Tai was very frustrated, he originally expected Jinyiwei to get rid of King Yan, but he didn't expect Jinyiwei to make such a big move, but King Yan was unharmed, but the emperor couldn't wait to drive King Yan away, King Yan left, the dragon returned to the sea, the tiger returned to the mountain, and it was not easy to clean him up.
Thinking of this, Qi Tai hurriedly made amends and suggested: "Your Majesty, the minister also agrees with Lord Fang's opinion, it is better to send King Yan back to Beiping as soon as possible."
However, King Yan destroyed the palace, feigned assassination, and various measures, it can be seen that King Yan was obviously extremely wary of the imperial court.
Although the decision of the imperial court is to stabilize King Yan first, cut his wings, and finally attack King Yan, we can't help but guard against some stupidity after King Yan returns to Beiping.
The minister thought that in terms of military equipment, it was necessary to strengthen the control of Beiping, and we had to prevent Yanwang from jumping over the wall to make the first move. ” Zhu Yunwen said: "Aiqing, as the secretary of the Ministry of War, dispatches troops and prepares for military defense, it should be held by Aiqing, I don't know what Aiqing proposes."
Qi Tai said: "Xie Gui is now in charge of the Beiping Metropolitan Affairs, but most of the generals under the jurisdiction of the Beiping Metropolitan Division are the old departments of King Yan, Xie Gui is afraid that it will be difficult to speak alone, and the minister thinks that he can make the Governor Song Zhong lead 30,000 troops to guard Kaiping in the name of preparing for the border, and the Governor Xu Kai leads 30,000 troops to Linqing, and the Governor Geng Zheng leads 30,000 troops to Shanhaiguan.
The two guards and horses of Beiping and Yongqing have followed King Yan to sweep the north many times, and the generals are all the people he brought out, and now it is too late to transfer them one by one, so they can transfer all the officers and soldiers of the two guards and move to Zhangde and Shunde.
In this way, even if King Yan returns to Beiping, he is still His Majesty's caged Yan, and he is weak in his desire to cheer up. ” Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed and said: "In this way, it can be guaranteed to be foolproof, very good, just follow your intentions." ” wanted to use the means of assassination to annihilate, but the result was self-defeating to fulfill the king of Yan, Jing Qing was also ashamed and ashamed in his heart, as soon as he heard Qi Tai's advice, he also stepped forward, and said to Zhu Yunwen: "King Yan is sinister and cunning, scheming, I am afraid that Zhang Rui and Xie Gui do not know the true face of King Yan, and it is difficult to prevent King Yan's means, please go to Beiping to assist the two adults, in order to give an edict to the court and capture King Yan on the spot."
"Good" Zhu Yunwen praised: "I am thinking about the officials of Beiping, I was confused by the illusion of King Yan, Jing Aiqing went to Beiping in person, I am relieved, then I entrusted you with the post of counselor of the political secretary of Beiping, and I kept an eye on King Yan."
Fang Xiaoru arched his hand and said: "The minister also has a suggestion, the emperor can select some officials who are loyal to the country, and entrust them with interviews to make envoys, so that they can patrol the world, ask the people about their weal and woe, inspect the officials, and rebuke corruption."
His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and he can understand the feelings of the people in the world through these ears and eyes, and at the same time, they can also secretly investigate the lawlessness of the kings. ” Zhu Yunwen nodded with deep emotion: "What Mr.
Xiaozhi said is yes, such a number of measures, why worry about the Yan Domain, according to what Mr. said, select virtuous people to interview the world, and ask Mr.
Xiaozhi and the master to make a selection for me."
Not long after King Yan arrived in Beijing, there were many turmoil one after another, Zhu Yunwen couldn't bear it anymore, and casually perfunctory him for a few days, and sent him away like a plague god.
King Yan left Jinling safely, and couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time he fell into a deep disappointment, his real purpose in going to Beijing this time was to use the power of public opinion and the affection of his uncle and nephew to impress the emperor, prompting him to dispel the idea of exterminating all the feudal domains.
But this goal was obviously not achieved, and Zhu Yunwen has been perfunctory to him, avoiding talking about the three kings being cut down.
At this time, Jinling failed to dispel the emperor's idea of cutting the domain, not to mention, if it weren't for Yang Xu's secret communication, he would have almost died under the secret arrow.
Once the Son of Heaven actually used such a means, it seems that the emperor is not only iron-hearted about the kings and death, but also unscrupulous.
Zhu Di finally began to consider the possibility of rebellion, which was the only way he could take except to be tied.
However, without soldiers and power, what can I do to fight with the emperor Although Zhu Di has fought countless battles, he has never fought such a disparity in power and such a sinister situation.
At the same time as the king of Yan returned to the north, Song Zhong, Xu Kai, Geng Zhen and other governors had already received the holy decree and led their troops to Kaiping, Linqing, and Shanhaiguan respectively.
A few days later, Jing Qing, the imperial envoy of the capital, was appointed as the counselor of the political envoy of Beiping and took office immediately.
The imperial envoy was a head taller than a senator of the political envoy, and Jing Qing was the emperor's confidant, and he had never heard of any fault with him, but he was demoted and moved to other places, and the place he went to was Beiping This obvious signal made the Chinese Wu of the Dynasty understand one thing: King Yan ventured south to have a showdown with Emperor Jianwen, and he was already defeated.
The emperor's heart to cut the feudal domain has never wavered at all, and the road of the imperial court to reduce the feudal domain will continue.
After another half a month, Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng carefully selected a list of 24 people and submitted them to Emperor Jianwen, Zhu Yunwen immediately issued an edict, announcing the dispatch of 24 people, including Shangshu Tyrant Zhao of the Criminal Department, Xia Yuanji, and Xu Simian in the Household Department, to serve as the imperial court interview envoys, and patrol the world on behalf of the Son of Heaven, ask the people about their weal and woe, inspect the officials, and denounce corruption.
These actions are all in Xia Xun's eyes, and he is also secretly preparing: once he clearly defects to King Yan, how to ensure the safety of his family; King Yan entrusted his three sons to him, how to ensure that they could return north safely and make some small moves under the noses of others, it was actually not easy.
In the afternoon of this day, Xia Xun was on duty in the yamen, and suddenly there was a decree from the inner servant, ordering him to meet him.
Xia Xun's official rank is not high, but he took over Luo Kedi, and now he is responsible for the arrangement of the palace guards and honor guards on duty.
As soon as he heard the emperor's summons, Xia Xun didn't know the reason, so he immediately followed the waiter into the palace, and inquired on the side of the road, but the little waiter didn't know whether he didn't know the reason for the emperor's call, or the death of Xiao Fuzi scared them, so he didn't dare to say more, Xia Xun couldn't inquire about anything, so he had to keep his mouth shut.
Walking along the royal road, he suddenly saw a civil official coming towards him, with words in his mouth, and he didn't know what he was muttering, Xia Xun looked at it and recognized that it was Huang Zhen, the two of them were the main and deputy angels, and they were ordered by Zhu Yuanzhang to go to Jinan to supervise the arrest of the White Lotus bandits, which can be regarded as old acquaintances, Xia Xun hurriedly informed the little waiter, and waited for him, so he greeted Huang Zhen and greeted him with a fist: "Lord Huang, it's been a long time." ” To be continued:
