The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 477: The unjust have little help

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was already very angry with Wei Ning, and with Liu Huan's stimulation, he had completely lost his mind.

Liu Huan was secretly happy, but he hurriedly went to persuade Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Father, don't let your anger break your body, don't let your anger break your body!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ignored him and said sternly to his left and right: "Go! Tell the three provinces! Let them write an edict to abolish the crown prince!"

"According to the order."

……

Three provinces.

When Dong Zhongshu heard that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted the three provinces to write an edict to abolish the crown prince, he was immediately shocked and hurriedly rejected the eunuch: "This is a serious matter! The three provinces cannot make the decision alone. Please tell your majesty that this matter needs to be discussed by all officials."

The eunuch glanced at Dong Zhongshu with a troubled expression. If this was conveyed to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he would definitely be beaten again.

However, the eunuch also knew that the matter of deposing the prince could never be decided on impulse.

In a sense, the relationship between the prince and the emperor is no longer that of father and son. The prince is the foundation of the country. The emperor cannot depose the prince casually without justifiable reasons.

When the eunuchs informed Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty of the opinions of the three provinces, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty immediately summoned all officials in the Qilin Hall.

"His Majesty!"

Dong Zhongshu clasped his fists and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "The prince is the foundation of the country, your majesty, please think twice!"

The officials still didn't know what happened, and they were a little confused when they heard Dong Zhongshu's words.

"Your Majesty wants to depose the prince. I don't know what the prince's fault is."

Dong Zhongshu said this deliberately to inform all officials of the ins and outs of the matter.

When all the officials heard that the prince was deposed, everyone gasped and hurriedly clasped their fists and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "Your Majesty wants to depose the prince?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said sternly: "Why not?"

Gongsun He originally wanted to hibernate, but when things got to this point, he could no longer hibernate. He hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "I wonder what your majesty's reason is? What mistake did the prince make?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said: "The prince is treasonous to me! Is it okay?"

"The prince of the country has no respect for his superiors, no father and no king!"

Gongsun He continued: "Your Majesty, please elaborate."

"you!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was furious and recounted the incident again.

Gongsun He cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I am stupid and don't know how the prince can be without a father and a king."

"Not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is opposed to the grain trade in southern Xinjiang, but also two ministers from the Ministry of Revenue are also opposed."

"Your Majesty is arbitrary and has been deceived by traitors. For the sake of your Majesty's wisdom, His Majesty, the Crown Prince, went to comfort your Majesty. I don't know how to live without a father and a king."

"I even believe that it is because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a father and a king that he would think about His Majesty in this way. Please give your Majesty a clear warning."

After Gongsun He finished speaking, Dong Zhongshu and many other senior officials from the three provinces and six ministries came out to persuade Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to think twice.

Not all officials supported Weining. From a righteous perspective, they did not think Weining had made any mistakes.

On the contrary, he felt that Wei Ning not only had no fault, but also had merit. He was also loyal and filial to the emperor, preventing the prince from falling into misunderstandings in decision-making and harming the country and the people.

Gongsun He said sincerely: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made great contributions to the country. When the Huns repeatedly endangered the northern border, the Crown Prince joined the army and killed the enemy without fear of life and death."

"He was later included in the family tree and was loyal to His Majesty. Even when he became the prince, he remained simple and never did anything out of the ordinary."

"Political disagreements are not necessarily wrong. Moreover, the prince's persuasion is well-founded. If we lose the grain trade in southern Xinjiang, it will harm the national interests." Not to please, for what?"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was stunned for a moment, and his impulsive mentality seemed to be brought back by Gongsun He's words.

He stared blankly at all the civil and military officials of the court, and for a moment he didn't know what had happened to him recently.

He himself clearly feels that his temper and temper are getting louder and more impulsive, and he does not allow anyone to disobey him.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty felt that he was sick and getting more and more serious, and any decision-making was not above his level.

But just for a moment, his thoughts were washed away by anger again.

"Okay! What a prince who thinks about me and the future of this great man."

"Then I will wait and see what harm this cancellation of grain trade will bring to the Han Dynasty. Let me see if the prince is thinking about me!"

Just as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty finished speaking, an official from the Ministry of War came hurriedly outside, cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty!"

"The people in the three counties of southern Xinjiang have rebelled."

"Now we have gathered 30,000 troops and captured all the government offices in Nanning County, Xinfu County, and Guang'an County."

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes in shock, stared at Liu Quya fiercely, and said: "What's going on?"

How did Liu Quyou know that he was the Minister of the Ministry of War, but wasn't he coming to the main hall for a court meeting? Who knows what happened to the Ministry of War?

The doctor of the Ministry of War clasped his fists and said to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty: "The people of the counties in southern Xinjiang require your majesty to reopen the country's borders with South Vietnam."

After the grain trade was cut off, Zhengxi closed the door to South Vietnam and the Han Dynasty. As a result, the people in the counties in southern Xinjiang lost their source of income.

They had already made profits by trading with the people of South Vietnam, but now the foundation of their livelihood was broken by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's impulsive words. How could they not fight back?
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was stunned. Just now he had vowed to tell all the officials that he wanted to see whether Wei Ning's decision was right or wrong.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by the newspaper from the Ministry of War doctor.

The cessation of grain trade in southern Xinjiang would trigger a series of crises. This was certainly a decision-making mistake by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but he had been unwilling to admit it.

He wanted to use this to force the two ministers of the household department to resign. His goal was achieved, but it triggered a major crisis in southern Xinjiang.

The crisis in southern Xinjiang is different from that in Sichuan and Shu. Sichuan and Shu are at best barbarian rebellions, but there are millions of Han people in southern Xinjiang!

If there is turmoil in the entire southern Xinjiang, it will cause a crisis in Jiangnan. Jiangnan is an important source of commercial taxes for the Han Dynasty. Once Jiangnan is in chaos again, the country will be in complete chaos!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty shuddered, but still spoke angrily, saying: "Liu Quyou! Send me troops! Suppress the rebellious people in southern Xinjiang!"

"According to the order!"

Dong Zhongshu hurriedly stepped out of the queue and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, we are treating the symptoms but not the root cause. Please also ask Your Majesty to recall Sang Hongyang and the two ministers of Hubu to take charge of the overall situation of Hubu."

"Please Your Majesty resume the grain trade between Han Dynasty and South Vietnam!"

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty glanced at Dong Zhongshu coldly and said to Liu Quya: "Quickly suppress the rebellious people in southern Xinjiang!"

"According to the order!"

Liu Quya clasped his fists.

Gongsun He, Huo Guang and others once again asked Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to adopt Dong Zhongshu's suggestion, but they were rejected by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty covered his forehead and said: "That's it, step back."

The officials sighed. Although Wei Ning's crown prince position was not abolished, they all saw Emperor Wu of Han's ignorance.

No one knew what happened to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He seemed more and more like a different person.
