"I said, I said that is, I am the protégé of Uncle Zheng Guo, the governor of the left capital, and I am also the person who contacts King Fu, King Lu, etc., for Uncle Zheng, mainly to operate business for them, and now I am in the Mansion of Wei, and I am in the Mansion of Wei Guogong for His Royal Highness and Uncle Guo to move the Duke of Wei to fry grain together, the main purpose is to make money, of course, it is also to let the court stop, don't reform like this."
Dou Ding couldn't help but confess.After Wei Zhongxian heard this, he didn't speak, but only fell silent, and said in his heart: "This really involves the vassal king!"
”"Put him back in prison first, and then pass on the instructions on how to deal with him after our family goes back to His Majesty!"
Then, Wei Zhongxian only said this, and immediately came to Zhu Youxiao's place and reported everything Dou Ding confessed to Zhu Youxiao.Zhu Youxiao snorted directly after hearing this: "Sure enough, none of them are good things, they only think about how to make a fortune in the country, and completely ignore the social situation, no matter how you say it, this Ming Dynasty and their relationship is still the biggest, if the Ming Dynasty dies, the Wenchen military generals can continue to be the Wenchen military generals, but what about them, can they still have the current royal family and relatives?!"
Stupidity!
Selfish!
Greedy!
”"The emperor is angry!"
Wei Zhongxian hurriedly replied, he could understand why His Majesty the Emperor was so angry, after all, it was basically his own family who dug up his ruling foundation, and whoever he replaced would not be in a much better mood."
Send a decree to Liu Ruoyu, let him immediately follow the decree, let Zheng Guifei become a monk, and then strangle her to death with white silk, on the grounds that he is suspected of murdering the first emperor!""
Then send a decree to Xu Xianchun, and lead people to confiscate Zheng Yangxing's family, and punish him for being full of adult men, and exile women and children to Liaodong, the reason is also to murder the first emperor and have the crime of killing the king!"
Zhu Youxiao said suddenly.At the beginning of Zhu Youxiao's accession to the throne, because he wanted to fight with the Donglin Party, he did not make a big move against the nobles and relatives, in order to avoid making them unite against himself.But now these vassal kings, relatives, and nobles have united to prevent themselves from reforming the new policy by speculating in grain, and they also want to take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of themselves, so he will naturally not let it go.And Zheng Guifei's dedication to the beautiful girl made Emperor Taichang indulge in death, although it is a remark often mentioned by the Donglin Party, it is difficult to have empirical evidence.But when Zhu Youxiao wanted to dispose of Zheng Guifei and her mother's family, this could also be a reason for Zhu Youxiao to dispose of them.Zhu Youxiao had already planned to dispose of the Zheng family.After all, these people were all political enemies of Zhu Youxiao's father, Zhu Changluo.It was just because the time had not yet come.After all, these people are behind King Fu.But now Zheng Yangxing is so dishonest.And Zhu Youxiao's next reform will enter a deeper area, and he will take action against the vassal king.Among these vassal kings, King Fu occupies the largest area and poses the greatest threat to him, the emperor.Zheng Guifei, Zheng Yangxing and others are the people who have the most to do with King Fu.Therefore, Zhu Youxiao naturally had to clean up the Zheng family before cleaning up King Fu."
Slave obeys!"
Wei Zhongxian immediately replied, he had already guessed that the emperor would do this, so he seemed relatively calm, and took the initiative to ask: "Emperor, do you need to let the people from Dongchang reveal this news to King Fu?"
”Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian in surprise: "Have you guessed what I want to do?"
”Wei Zhongxian suddenly knelt down in a cold sweat: "The emperor spares his life, slave maid, slave maid is speechless for a while, slave maid is just, just wants to do more for the emperor, so he is reckless!"
”"Get up."
Zhu Youxiao said a word, and said: "Quasi!
”"Yes!""
Thank the emperor for not killing!"
Wei Zhongxian was like a pardon.Zhu Youxiao smiled faintly.Then, Zhu Youxiao continued: "Pass the decree, let Li Zhizao and Lu Xiangsheng's first battalion of Guard Town continue to go to Henan to check the loan debts of Henghe Grain Shop, and those who dare to stop it will be killed!"
”"In addition, release Dou Ding, let him go to see the nobles suspected of colluding with the vassal kings and relatives, gather these nobles, and then get rid of them one by one, and use thunderous means to quickly get rid of them, before the vassal kings may rebel, to prevent these nobles from responding, and also to avoid the heroes from becoming anti-ministers later, and then make my Ming heroes extinct, which is not only to extinguish the possibility of them plotting together, but also to protect the family of heroes."
Zhu Youxiao announced his will again.At the same time, Zhu Youxiao also asked Han Yi, Xiong Tingbi and others: "What do you think?"
”"Your Majesty Shengming!"
Xiong Tingbi replied first.Han Yi saw that Xiong Tingbi didn't frown when he returned to the emperor like this, so he hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty Shengming!"
”"Passing on the message, I do not want to get rid of the heroes, but to protect the heroes, and get rid of their unscrupulous descendants for those who have made great contributions to my Ming Dynasty, so that their families will avoid the crime of rebellion, so that the descendants of the heroes will know to be good, know to keep the family business, and know to uphold loyalty and filial piety, which is equivalent to me helping them clean up the door, this operation is called the Night of the Long Knife; Han Aiqing, Xiong Aiqing, you take the civil and military forces of the Southern Capital to the Tomb of Filial Piety first, and prepare the ceremony of sacrificing the Tomb of Filial Piety and the Loyal Martyrs of the Ming Dynasty in Nanjing, I personally went to arrest the unworthy descendants of these heroes, and then went to the Tomb of Filial Piety, and told the heroes who had made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and told them that today for the safety of the country and the society, and for the inheritance of their family, I had to decisively execute their descendants by thunderous means, and I believe that Taizu and their heroes will support me. ”Zhu Youxiao said: "Act as soon as possible, Han Aiqing, immediately prepare the recital and edict of Taizu and the heroes of the heroes, Ma Xianglin, you take the second battalion with me, and prepare to arrest the lords of the noble family." ”"Yes!"
The ministers immediately replied.…… this night.Dou Ding was released, and according to Wei Zhongxian's request, he came to the Wei State Mansion."
They found out that I was the queen Fu behind me, so they suddenly let me go, saying that this matter is over, it seems that the emperor will not do anything to his own uncle."
Dou Ding said so as soon as he saw Xu Hongji.Xu Hongji nodded after hearing this, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the one-husband tyrant doesn't want to leave a notoriety that the six relatives don't recognize!"
”"I also quickly ask Grandpa Guo to invite the Nanjing lords who participated in this grain speculation to come to your mansion, Dou has something important to tell him, which is related to the safety of your family!
There can be no mistake!
”Dou Ding suddenly said with a solemn expression.Xu Hongji didn't dare to doubt it, after all, the safety of the family was at stake, so he couldn't help asking: "The vassal kings want to make a move?"
”Dou nodded and didn't say anything.Xu Hongji felt even more that something big was about to happen, and he hurriedly instructed his son: "Immediately invite all the nobles and nobles in Nanjing City who participated in this grain speculation!"
”An hour later.The nobles have arrived one after another."
What, King Fu wants to rebel?"
Zhu Guobi, Marquis of Funing, asked."
Maybe it's possible, King Fu has lost a lot this time, and he has borrowed a lot, and King Lu, the court may have to debt them!"
Gu Mingjiao, Marquis of Zhenyuan, said."
How many soldiers and horses did King Fu prepare, and did King Lu respond, should he send troops to fight the southern capital, or go to Beijing?"
Lingbi Hou Tang Xingzuo asked directly.Dou Ding said: "After I was released from prison, I saw the people sent by His Highness, and His Highness said that he wanted to hear what you meant. ”"What do we mean?"
Zhu Guobi asked.…… But at this moment, a cannon shot suddenly sounded outside.The nobles couldn't help but look out.Xu Wenjue, the prince of Wei, walked directly outside, and not long after, he ran back and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here!"
”Zhu Youxiao did come in person this time, and in order to show that he was dealing with these unscrupulous descendants for the Ming meritorious heroes, he also appeared in person.But after Zhu Youxiao came, he just lost a sentence: "Take it all away!"
”Then, Zhu Youxiao left here.Ma Xianglin, who was specifically responsible, said to these nobles next: "Princess, you have been arrested!"
Come out with us!
