Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 174 Thank You, His Royal Highness Liao Wang

Li Guo stood triumphantly at the gate of the Panyu County Yamen, surrounded by ordinary people pointing and pointing, but they did not dare to speak loudly.

Beside Li Guo, there are a kind of servants who act as his minions, and they all look arrogant.

Zhu Qi followed Daotong, the county magistrate of Panyu County, and walked to the door. After seeing Li Guo and the lackeys around him, he also sighed in his heart that there are really such stupid people in this world.

Although Li Guo saw the officials behind Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County in front of him, and the people led by Zhu Qi, they all seemed not to be trifled with.

But Li Guo didn't panic at all. Instead, he folded his arms and said to the county magistrate Daotong who was walking over:

"Dao Tong, it seems that you have grown courageous, and you have found a helper!"

Daotong also ignored him, and then said to the officials behind him:

"Arrest this bully who commits all kinds of crimes, and leave it to His Highness for interrogation!"

When those officials saw that Liao King Zhu Qi was sitting nearby, they naturally wouldn't feel any timidity.

Soon he shouted loudly, and then rushed up to arrest Li Guo.

Li Guo originally came here to show his prestige in front of the common people.

But he didn't expect that Daotong, the county magistrate of Panyu, who had been taught a lesson by his brother-in-law, Zhu Liangzu, would dare to arrest him at this time?
Immediately, he shouted to Daotong in front of him:
"Well, you Daotong haven't been beaten enough, have you? Are you afraid that you don't want your life anymore? Believe it or not, I'll ask someone to beat you to death right now?"

Dao Tong sneered, and said to Li Guo in front of him:
"I am an official ordered by the court, do you have the guts to beat me to death?"

Li Guo raised his chest and said fiercely:

"Even if I beat you to death, I will push it to other Jiangyang thieves. Who dares to say, who can say?!"

When I said the last two sentences, I already glanced around, and the common people obviously said these words to the common people.

And the common people lowered their heads one by one in a very real way, there is no way.

It's not that Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County, had never arrested Li Guo before, but he was beaten up by Zhu Liangzu, the defender of Guangdong and Guangxi. What kind of identity is Zhu Liangzu, the defender of Guangdong and Guangxi?

That's the general who holds the military power in his hand. The people don't fight with officials, let alone those generals.

However, some people and the poor Daotong people said to Daotong one after another:

"Master County Magistrate, go back quickly!"

"Yes, yes, go back quickly, we are fine."

One by one the common people spoke like this, and Daotong's eyes turned red again, he turned around and cupped his hands at Zhu Qigong and said:

"Your Highness, can you see what Panyu County has become like after being overwhelmed by these bullies?
The lower official is the magistrate of Panyu County, the parent official of this place, but he can't protect the local people. This is where the lower official is really ashamed! "

After Daotong finished speaking, his face was already full of guilt.

Zhu Qi was also quite amazed, he didn't expect that it would be so difficult for local officials to be a good official, and Li Guo on the other side had already seen him completely confused.

What's the situation?Why does this Taoist call the young man next to him His Highness?

When Li Guo was still in a daze, those officials had already rushed up, and those servants and servants also fought against the officials without hesitation under Li Guo's lustful power.

However, the officials had His Royal Highness Liao Wang sitting in charge, and they were not afraid at all, and immediately drew their knives in their hands.

The servants and servants did not expect that these officials would really dare to stab themselves. Before they could react, several people had already fallen into a pool of blood.

The common people came here to watch the excitement, but they didn't expect that there would be a real bloodshed.

You must know that although Daotong would arrest these bullies in the past, he never confronted them with swords.

The reason why Dao Tong would not confront them with swords was of course because he obeyed the law of the Ming Dynasty.

They didn't commit capital crimes, so naturally they wouldn't hurt their lives.

But now that Li Guo dared to block the government office and hurt the court officials, that is already a capital crime, so naturally there is no need to be polite to them.

What's more, they dared to collect taxes from His Royal Highness Liao Wang before. Is this tax something they can touch?
Li Guo obviously didn't expect that Dao Tong would suddenly be so stubborn and dare to kill someone.

But thinking of His Highness next to him, he couldn't help hesitating in his heart.

I thought to myself, could it really be someone from the imperial court?

But Li Guo didn't think too much about it, those officials had already come to him with their knives in hand.

Li Guo didn't have the courage anymore, his feet softened, and he immediately knelt down in front of these officials.

"Don't, don't, have something to say."

The current Li Guo is not as brave as before.

How could these officials talk to Li Guo properly?
He was immediately tied up, and the common people around saw that Li Guo had been arrested again, and immediately applauded.

"Good! Good catch!"

"Great!"

"Your magistrate is doing well!"

A group of people were shouting there, but Daotong raised his hand, motioning for everyone to be quiet.

Then, he said to the people below:

"My fellow citizens, it's not because I have the same skills, but because the court has finally come, and the person next to me is His Royal Highness the King of Liao.

After His Highness Liao Wang knew what happened in our Panyu County, he rushed over immediately. If it weren't for His Highness Liao Wang, I am still blocked in the yamen by these thieves, unable to enter or leave! "

The common people in front of them applauded one after another, and Zhu Qi also raised his hand to greet everyone at this time.

Of course, he didn't say too much. This Daotong's injury hasn't healed yet. Standing here for too long will definitely not be good for his recovery.

What's more, the common people are so excited, it's better to let them leave quickly.

As for these bullies, they must have been arrested and interrogated. Needless to say, the evidence is convincing, so let’s just ransack their homes and interrogate them.
And Zhu Qi was also busy writing the memorial. Needless to say, the content of this memorial was the impeachment of Zhu Liangzu, covering up his relatives to beat the court officials, ignoring the king's law and oppressing the good people. Anyway, all evidences were given to him.

All that's left is to wait for Zhu Yuanzhang's feedback, and then arrest Zhu Liangzu and it's over.

That's what Zhu Qi thought in his heart.

But Gao Jin at the side came over and reminded him in a low voice:

"Your Highness, after all, Zhu Liangzu is the garrison of the Guangdong and Guangxi regions. If you let him know what happened here, in case he uses his military power to do nothing..."

Zhu Qi was also taken aback when he heard it, thinking about it, if what happened here spread to Zhu Liangzu, and let Zhu Liangzu know that he, His Highness the King of Liao, came to preside over the righteous way for the Taoist of Panyu County.

It is really possible that Zhu Liangzu will be directly forced to rebel.

And if Zhu Liangzu really used all the soldiers in his hands to fight over, the people in his hands would really be difficult to deal with Zhu Liangzu.

Zhu Qixin was also secretly startled, he didn't think so much before, he just thought about coming to preside over the righteous way.

But after thinking about it, Zhu Qi thought of a solution. Even though Zhu Liangzu had military power in his hands, he couldn't do it in a day or two if he wanted to rebel.

With all kinds of preparations and plans, Zhu Liangzu would never take this move until the last moment.

What's more, how could the guard soldiers under him easily follow Zhu Liangzu to rebel.

It's like fishing, as long as you don't pull the rope too tightly, the fish will never die with you.

Zhu Qi didn't say much when he thought of this, and immediately gave orders to pack up, let's go find Zhu Liangzu!

………………

At this time, Zhu Liangzu was still in his mansion.

When I heard the news of what happened in Panyu County, it was already two days later.

When Zhu Liangzu heard that His Royal Highness Liao Wang had appeared in Panyu County and arrested Li Guo, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Why did His Royal Highness King Liao appear in Panyu County?
As for why, do you still have to ask?Most likely it was the rescuer that the Taoist found.

His Royal Highness the King of Liao was notoriously stern and selfless in the officialdom, and he had no room for maneuver against any corrupt officials, even his own cousin was killed directly.

As for the death-free iron coupons, although Zhu Liangzu also had them, didn't the previous Marquis of Pingyang also have the death-free iron coupons?

His Royal Highness the King of Liao didn't even look at it, he found a reason and killed Pingyanghou.

I really want to say that Pingyang Hou has a yellow robe hidden in his house and wants to be emperor.

No one really dared to believe this matter. Most people in the officialdom thought it was a bureau set up by His Royal Highness King Liao, so they assigned this crime to Marquis Pingyang.

After all, the crime of treason, regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as it appears, it will definitely not be easily let go.

The death penalty cannot avoid the death penalty of rebellion.

The more Zhu Liangzu thought about it, the more flustered he became. If His Royal Highness King Liao really came after him, it would be a disaster for him.

Even if he has a death-free coupon in his hand, there have been examples before.

His Royal Highness King Liao really wanted to put himself to death, right?

Zhu Liangzu is a little flustered now, and he is not as energetic as he was when he beat Daotong, the county magistrate of Panyu, some time ago.

And the dog-headed master next to him saw Zhu Liangzu's expression and knew what Zhu Liangzu was thinking. He stepped forward and whispered:
"General, you don't have to worry too much. Although His Royal Highness King Liao is selfless and ruthless, you have contributed to the Ming Dynasty. Why would the emperor not do anything to you just because of a small fellowship?"

Zhu Liangzu did not let out a sigh of relief when he heard the words of the dog head master, but sighed heavily, and said:
"If you want to talk about the emperor, then I know it too well, he is the most hated person.

Although I didn't do anything heinous, if the emperor knew that I beat the court officials, he would definitely not forgive me lightly. "

The dog-headed master rolled his eyes when he heard what Zhu Liangzu said, thinking about the general in his heart, you haven't committed any heinous crimes yet, this court official can't even get you out of bed.

But after all, he worked with Zhu Liangzu's money, so he definitely couldn't say such things to Zhu Liangzu.

So the dog-headed army division nodded, and said in agreement:
"That's right, what the general did is not a big mistake, but His Royal Highness Liao still needs to handle it carefully."

As soon as Zhu Liangzu heard the words of the dog-headed military master, it was obvious that he had a way, so he immediately asked questions, and the dog-headed military master stroked his goatee and continued:

"The method is also very simple, as long as the general and His Highness King Liao explain it clearly.

Just say that the beating of the county magistrate Daotong was definitely not done for Li Guo.

The general can be said to have discovered signs of collusion between Dao Tong and Bei Yuan, and he did this out of anger.

In order not to be exposed, Li Guo was used as an excuse.

If this is the case, even if the matter is brought to the emperor's side, it will not be a big deal. "

What the dog-headed soldier said was indeed correct. Now, one of the crimes committed by Zhu Liangzu was covering up his brother-in-law Li Guo, and the other was beating up the county magistrate Daotong.

If it is said that all of this is for the purpose of uncovering Daotong Yudang of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, this righteousness is upheld, and it is nothing to release a prisoner.

And if Daotong is classified as a person who colluded with Beiyuan, not only will he not be punished, he may even be rewarded, maybe!
In fact, this is what Zhu Liangzu planned to do before, and the documents he used to frame Daotong have already been sent to Ying Tianfu.

As a defender of Guangdong and Guangxi, he wanted to find some evidence to frame Daotong. It was very simple. There were many Beiyuan spies and former officials from Beiyuan's side locked up in the prison.

It's too easy for these people to correct him and frame him.

How did Zhu Liangzu know that Zhu Qi is a person who knows the future history?
He thought to himself, if Master Goutou followed the method, His Royal Highness King Liao would definitely believe in him even more.

All of a sudden, Zhu Liangzu didn't panic anymore. He would go to His Royal Highness Liao Wang's side sometime, and then play a play to suppress this matter himself.

As for that Li Guo must not be allowed to stay, even though he is his brother-in-law, his future must be more important than his wife.

Just as Zhu Liangzu was thinking about it, he suddenly saw someone running over in a hurry, and said to Zhu Liangzu:
"General! His Highness Liao Wang is here."

"what?"

Zhu Liangzu panicked all of a sudden, stood up immediately, and asked:
"Where is Your Highness at this time, and how many people did you bring with you?"

Zhu Liangzu's first reaction was His Royal Highness King Liao. Could it be that he brought someone over to arrest him?

But the servant in front of him quickly said:
"His Highness is already at the gate of our mansion, but His Highness didn't bring many people with him, only a dozen or so people. He said he was coming to congratulate the general."

Zhu Liangzu was taken aback for a moment, congratulating himself, what happy event does he have to celebrate?

I am still in trouble now, but if His Royal Highness King Liao only brought a dozen people, Zhu Liangzu felt a little relieved in his heart.

It shows that His Royal Highness King Liao did not come to arrest him.

The dog-headed master next to him, when he heard the situation, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said to Zhu Liangzu:
"General, what did I say earlier? You are a generation of meritorious service in the Ming Dynasty, and His Royal Highness King Liao will definitely not touch you easily."

After Zhu Liangzu heard this, he hurriedly asked:
"Then why did he come to congratulate the general again?"

The dog-headed military division hesitated for a moment, how could he know, he could only say:
"It won't be a bad thing after all, let's bring His Highness Liao Wang in first, and then talk to His Highness Chat Wang about the rest!"

When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he thought it was the same reason. His Royal Highness King Liao couldn't be kept waiting outside. The other party was the prince after all.

He first ordered his subordinates to go to the kitchen to prepare a table of good wine and food for His Royal Highness Liao Wang, and then he brought the people around him to greet him at the door.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw His Royal Highness King Liao standing at the door with a smile on his face, not in a hurry at all, while Zhu Liangzu walked up with a look of panic and said:
"The last general didn't know that His Royal Highness Liao King came, and he didn't greet His Highness Liao King immediately. Please don't blame the late general."

Zhu Qi came to stabilize Zhu Liangzu, so how could he say anything harsh to him?

At that time, he walked up cordially, held Zhu Liangzu's hands, and said:
"The general is busy with military affairs, Xiao Wang knows it, so how could he blame the general?

Besides, Xiao Wang didn't tell the general in advance when he came here. Xiao Wang was afraid of delaying the general's military affairs. "

Both of them are polite, so naturally there is no nutrition.

But here, Zhu Liangzu was still thinking about what His Highness Liao Wang was doing suddenly, and with a smile on his face, he invited His Highness Liao Wang in.

The brocade guards behind Zhu Qi were all very nervous.

I was afraid that Zhu Liang's group would do something to hurt His Royal Highness King Liao.

And in my heart, I admire His Royal Highness Liao Wang for his extraordinary courage. He dared to come to Zhu Liangzu under such circumstances.

Zhu Qi is not really brave, but he is very confident in the system formulated by Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the guard system was implemented.

The so-called guard system is similar to the combination of the Fubing system in the early Tang Dynasty and the military household in the Yuan Dynasty.

It is the imperial court that supports the soldiers, and the soldiers cultivate the land and guard their homeland.

This fundamentally prevented the occurrence of warlord separatism.

Because the soldiers' salaries have nothing to do with the general's half a dime. Some of them are rewards and subsidies from the court, and most of them are planted by the soldiers themselves.

And the field of this military household was ordered by the emperor to rebel with the general?

Do you want this field anymore?

In feudal times, fields were more important than lives!

Moreover, those generals have no administrative power at all.

Of course, there are exceptions, and that is the Nine Great Sailors.

These have been mentioned before, so I won't repeat them.

Even General Lan Yu, who has such outstanding military exploits, has no way to mobilize the army at will.

Not to mention Zhu Liangzu, a general who is not as famous and powerful as Sapphire.

Therefore, Zhu Qiqi was completely assured that the soldiers from Guangdong and Guangxi could not follow Zhu Liangzu's order to deal with him.

However, it is also necessary to prevent Zhu Liangzu from jumping over the wall in a hurry, so Zhu Qi came over to appease Zhu Liangzu as soon as possible, on the one hand to prevent him from rebelling and defecting to Beiyuan, and on the other hand to prevent him from escaping.

After the two sat in the hall, before Zhu Qi had time to speak, Zhu Liangzu shouted with a sad expression on his face:
"Your Highness, you must save me this time!"

Zhu Qi was taken aback for a moment, then said:

"Could it be that the general is talking about the matter of Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County?"

Then Zhu Liangzu nodded and said:
"Your Highness must have come here for this matter. Let me explain to His Highness first that I really didn't deliberately cover up Li Guo's matter.

It was only today that I heard people say that this Li Guo has done a lot of evil in Panyu County. I really had nothing to do with this Li Guo before.

As for Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County, you must not believe what he says.

I really didn't beat Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County, because of Li Guo. "

With a puzzled expression on his face, Zhu Qi deliberately asked:
"It seems that the magistrate of Panyu County was really beaten by you."

Zhu Liangzu hurriedly explained:
"There is a reason for this, in fact, I will not hide what your Highness said.

In recent days, I have found evidence that Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County, colluded with Beiyuan.

And I have sent those evidences to Yingtian Mansion, to His Majesty the Emperor.

These Taoisms are all unknown.

But I myself couldn't be more angry that this fellow Taoist actually took advantage of our Daming's salary, and even colluded with Bei Yuan.

Only then did the general beat up Dao Tong, but the general was afraid of scaring the snake, so he deliberately used Li Guo's matter as an example.

Li Guo was also released, just to make Dao Tong think that he was beaten for Li Guo's affairs in the end. "

Good guy, Zhu Qi only called it a good guy in his heart, he didn't even think of such a perfect reason, and he didn't expect Zhu Liangzu to think of it.

First beat Dao Tong as a traitor, and then say that he beat Dao Tong. In fact, he didn't take personal revenge, but beat him because he knew he was a traitor.

But in order not to expose this matter, he deliberately said that he was helping his brother-in-law to vent his anger.

This is all emotional and reasonable, and Daotong will not doubt it anymore. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang came, he would probably not punish him after hearing Zhu Liangzu's one-sided words, and even give him a little red flower.

It's a pity that this time is not the time for you Zhu Liangzu to fool Zhu Yuanzhang. I, Liao King Zhu Qi, is right in front of you, and I know the ins and outs of the matter.

However, Zhu Qi didn't want to expose him either, but with a suddenly realized expression on his face, and then said viciously:
"So that's the case, I said why Daotong keeps impeaching the general here.

The general guards the frontiers for my country, how could he do such a thing?

It's really not worth breaking the law for a mere brother-in-law, and I have no doubts about the general's character, so I told Dao Tong that there must be some misunderstanding.

I didn't expect this Taoist to be a real villain! "

After Zhu Qi finished speaking angrily, he slapped the table, looking very angry.

And Zhu Liangzu also pursued the victory and said:
"That Daotong not only did that, but also bribed the people with small favors to make them say more good things about him.

He also slandered the last general everywhere, the last general really suffered so much that he couldn't tell! "

Zhu Qi also sighed and said:
"Don't worry, general, this king will never let the general suffer.

This king will definitely tell his father about this matter, and then make the decision for the general. "

Zhu Liangzu was overjoyed, and then asked Zhu Qi:

"By the way, His Royal Highness Liao Wang, you just said congratulations to me. Is there any happy event for me recently?"

Zhu Qi nodded and said:
"Naturally there is a happy event, and now you know the situation between us and Bei Yuan, General.

The prosperity of my country in the Ming Dynasty is no longer something Beiyuan can contend with, and now, the Yunnan area is still in the hands of King Liang of Beiyuan, so it is impossible to justify it anyway.

Before long, I, Ming Dynasty, should attack Yunnan and regain my homeland. At that time, General, you may be the commander-in-chief this time. This king has strongly recommended the General before coming here, so I believe there will be no major problems. "

After Zhu Qi finished speaking, Zhu Liangzu was overjoyed, this is a great opportunity for military exploits!
"The final general thanked His Royal Highness King Liao!"

Seeing Zhu Liangzu's grateful expression, Zhu Qi laughed heartily.

There will be times when you cry later!
