Daming, originally wanted to destroy it, but the system came

Chapter 422 Is this also part of your plan?
"What kind of lake is this?"

Outside the city, Zhu Zhen, surrounded by his guards, came to the edge of Xuanwu Lake.

"This is Xuanwu Lake, Lao Shiba, even if you are uneducated and incompetent, you should be somewhat educated," Zhu Zhu, the sixteenth brother, rolled his eyes at his younger brother.

Zhu Cun knew that Zhu Clan had never stopped for a moment along the way, and that Zhu Clan was a scholar, not a rough guy like himself, so it was really a struggle.

He was very careless at this time.

So Zhu Xi smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"Xuanwu Lake? So, this city can also be called Xuanwu Gate," Zhu Zhen turned to look at the city gate not far away, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

They had been at the bottom of the city for half an hour, but after identifying themselves, they were not welcomed into the city.

Logically speaking, even if two ordinary vassal princes return to the capital, they should publicize it with great fanfare, right?

What's more, with his achievements this year, it's not too much to hold a welcoming ceremony with gongs and drums, firecrackers blasting, and red flags waving with huge crowds of people.

The group of people waited at the bottom of the city for a while, but did not notice that there was also a group of people on the city wall looking at them.

What about the prince? When the prince was a child, he couldn't just run outside.

It didn't stop when they arrived in Guangdong and Guangxi. Later, the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture and Hua Mao jointly reported to the court. Only then did the court know that a real rebellion had occurred in Guangdong, and it was related to the Guangxi plague.

Zhu Ming guessed correctly, Zhu Yunwen was indeed planning to take action.

I'm afraid that if you draw a tiger, it will turn out to be an anti-dog.

Zhu Zhen smiled, what happened to the Xuanwu Gate? Eldest nephew? Or who?
If you really have Li Erfeng's ability and courage, we should really take a high look at you.

"You," Xu Miaojin glared at Zhu Xi, how could you still be kidding?

It was not a blessing at first, but I felt that I was not tired of it.

The resentment he spoke of was like a resentful woman, and Xu Miaojin almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

Zhu Xi smiled.

Mu Qiu and Tang Xin also came closer, and the three women gathered together and whispered something.

After all, Xu Miaojin had been hanging out with her brother since she was a child, and she dared to beat up those playboys Li Jinglong and Chang Mao in the street.

Then I thought that his sixteenth brother was still here. This guy was really serious.

Although there are no various skin care products in later generations, the true energy in the three women's bodies is the best skin care product. Even if they are exposed to wind and sun along the way and fight on the battlefield, they are still white and beautiful today.

Since this year when Zhu Zhen inspected the world on behalf of the emperor as an imperial envoy, Zhu Yunwen had a huge sense of crisis.

"Can they still kill me under a gate in the capital? Are they really going to launch the Xuanwu Gate Revolution?" Zhu Zhen laughed.

Again, corrupt officials were caught and massacred.

There was silence in the city, even the gates were closed, and there was a sense of strangeness everywhere.

Then Zhu Chu entered Tibet from Yunnan, fought in battles all the way, and conquered a circle of territory.

It is said that husband and wife are of the same mind.

Zhu Ming said: "You were not like this before, sister. You were the one chasing me back then. Now that you have it, you don't know how to cherish it?"

As a result, before the court could make a response plan, they learned that the King of Dian had rescued Guangxi.

"Showing the enemy's weakness does not necessarily mean luring the enemy deep. It can also be combined with luring the snake out of its hole. Sun Tzu's art of war also needs to be applied flexibly," Zhu Zhen said with a proud expression.

What's more, Zhu Yuanzhang attaches great importance to children's education. I heard that many of Zhu Laosi's group of fierce children were beaten for not studying hard.

It's impossible not to take action.

"Your Highness, it's time to make a decision," Qitai looked at Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Zhu looked on with envy and praised: "Eighteenth brother is so lucky."

Xu Miaojin raised his eyebrows and realized that Zhu Chu had noticed it a long time ago, and he had done it on purpose from the beginning?

But he wouldn't say that now, and he's not a straight man.

Even though the two brothers Zhu Chu and Zhu Zhu were princes, they were not necessarily as familiar with the capital as she was.

Who among the people in the world today does not sing about the reputation of King Dian?

But now?

Xu Miaojin came over and whispered: "In the past, this door was not lonely, but why does it look different from usual today?"

When it came to Zhu Chu and his group, Lao Zhu had no energy. Otherwise, Zhu Chu would have been whipped eight hundred times a day.

"Your Highness?"

Even in the Fujian area, they were able to suppress bandits and pacify pirates, and even took over an island.

Zhu Ming shook his head and whispered to Xu Miaojin: "Idiot, if you don't give him a chance, he never takes this step, how can I get to the top? Why did the old man waste his reserves? Why do you think we only brought a hundred people back? Really? Tens of thousands of people have come back, and I'm afraid it's time for him to shrink back again. Could it be that my eldest nephew is a tortoise? But there is no tortoise in the Chinese zodiac."

Zhu Ming sighed and stretched out his hand to wipe his wife's pretty face. Not to mention how tender her face was.

So Xu Miaojin secretly warned Zhu Zhen: "Be careful."

Seeing how confident he was, Xu Miaojin felt relieved.

Especially when Zhu Chu sent back results one after another and severely punished the aristocratic families, it frightened all the aristocratic families in the Jiangnan area to not dare to get carried away again.

But people in the world only know about the King of Dian, but they don't know about the emperor's grandson, Zhu Yunwen, who is the crown prince.

The huge sense of crisis and the increasing pressure made Zhu Yunwen gradually breathless under Zhu Chu's reputation.

So he finally took the risk and decided to kill first and tell later.

As the minister of the Ministry of War, Qi Tai bypassed the emperor and the governor's office of the fifth army and transferred one of the guards.

He also heard that since Zhu Chu and his party entered the customs, there were flying pigeons delivering letters. He knew that Zhu Chu only had a hundred followers, so it would not be a problem.

There are more than 5,000 people in the first guard station. As long as they swarm him, they can chop his eighteenth uncle into a pulp.

By then, even if Grandpa Huang asked, his old son would no longer recognize him.

Zhu Yunwen took a deep breath and murmured: "As long as the King of Dian dies, great things can be accomplished. Now that the vassal kings from all over the country are in the capital, the emperor's suspicion has grown day by day since his old age. In order to prevent chaos in the country, he can only compromise. Even so. Knowing that it was me who did it, once my position as crown prince is deposed, are you not afraid of a fight between my third uncle and my fourth uncle?"

Zhu Yunwen sneered. He knew that his fourth uncle was also quite ambitious, and the emperor had indeed planned to make his fourth uncle the crown prince.

It's a pity that the second uncle was still there then, and the third uncle is still here now.

If you want to establish a fourth uncle, you can't get around the third uncle.

Anyway, he thought about everything.

He did not dare to follow Li Erfeng's example and force Zhu Yuanzhang to abdicate. He was not that bold yet.

To put it bluntly, you should be timid before fighting. When Zhu Zhen entered Beijing, he took himself as a hostage. He thought that in the worst case, I would break up with you and run back to Yunnan to start an army.

But what Zhu Yunwen wanted was to prepare for the worst first, so that if things went wrong, he would not be blamed or punished by the emperor.

Being forbearing is really forbearing, and being timid is really timid.

We have already come to this point. It can be said that we are either going to die or we will die. Why do we still have such concerns?
"Let them in, it's time to invite you to the urn," Zhu Yunwen said.

Qi Tai agreed and quickly went down to make arrangements.

As the city gate slowly opened, a group of people came out and bowed to Zhu Zhen and Zhu Zhen: "You deserve to die, little man. I don't know that the two princes returned to the capital at a thousand years old. I didn't open the door in time to greet them. Please forgive me." .”

Zhu Zhen looked over with a smile and asked casually: "Which guard are you from?"

In the early Ming Dynasty, during the Hongwu period, Zhu Yuanzhang established forty-nine guards in Nanjing to be responsible for Nanjing's defense. Thirty-two guards were under the command of the Fifth Army Governor's Office in Nanjing, and seventeen guards were pro-military guards.

Zhu Zhen was already preparing to follow the clues.

It turned out that the man was also smart. He lowered his head and did not answer. He changed the subject and said, "I think your Majesty will definitely summon you two into the palace when he knows that the two princes are back. Please come into the city."

Zhu Zhen smiled again, okay, let's see what tricks you want to play first.

So Zhu Chu glanced at Zhu Chuan and said, "Brother Sixteen, please come first."

Zhu Zhen examined Zhu Zhen's expression. He always felt that he was cheating?

Zhu Zhu looked suspiciously at the people who came out and the city gate in front of him. He actually felt that the dark hole in the door looked like a monster with its bloody mouth open? Ready to choose someone to devour?

But then I thought, this is the capital, and I am the son of Emperor Hongwu. Who dares to harm me here?

So Zhu Zhuan got off his horse and led the horse to prepare to enter the city.

Zhu Ming shook his head and had no choice but to dismount.

The three women and a hundred guards behind him also followed the two vassal kings and filed into the city gate. As a result, just after they entered, the people behind them suddenly closed the city gate tightly again.

Zhu Ting glanced back.

Those people also explained: "Now that the new year is approaching, the curfew time is earlier."

So the time to close the city gate is also early.

Zhu Zhen nodded subconsciously and actually believed it.

If nothing happens, it's okay.

But Zhu Xi knew that things were not that simple.

He had vaguely noticed someone on the city wall before. After all, his senses were not low now.

After passing through the not-so-long doorway, Zhu Zhen and the others finally arrived at the city.

But as soon as he came out, he was surrounded by an army.

"What does this mean?" Zhu Zhuan suddenly looked angry and shouted: "Do you know who we are? How dare you use knives and guns on our brothers?"

After all, Zhu Zhuan is also a prince, so the king's majesty cannot be offended.

Suddenly, on the wall behind them, Qi Tai, the Minister of War, Huang Guan, the Minister of Rites, Huang Zicheng, the Minister of Taichang Temple, and the three highest-ranking people under Zhu Yunwen's group all appeared.

"King of Dian, do you know your guilt?" Qi Tai preemptively shouted and asked Zhu Ming for his guilt.

Zhu Ming shrugged: "What is my crime?"

Huang Guan shouted: "Arrogant boy, the world was already peaceful, but you started a war. Not only did you secretly attack Wusuzangdusi and Duogandusi in Tibet without telling the court, they were my vassals in the Ming Dynasty, but you also fought with Dongdong. The Chagatai Khanate was at odds with the Timurid Empire and even used troops on the grasslands. This is an evil act and atrocity, which is despised by others. You are trying to frame our Ming Dynasty for being unkind and unjust. We are a country of gentlemen."

"Going to war will only harm the people. The King of Dian is so proud of his achievements that he doesn't care about the life and death of the people. He is not a king," Huang Zicheng also stood up and said a few words.

As the saying goes, why bother trying to impose a crime?
Not to mention that Tibet only pays tribute but does not pay taxes, and it also rewards tribute generously. In order to get Tibet to pay tribute, it has to double the reward.

Why are you so humble? Why are you so mean?
Not to mention that the Eastern Chagatai Khanate and Timur Empire were not only ambitious, but they were not even vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, right?
At least Zhu Zhen didn't think that Hei Erhuo Zhe only paid tribute once or twice.

It's not even a prison system.

What is wrong with the relationship between the two countries and taking advantage of their illness to kill them?

Not to mention that the northern grasslands have been a major concern for the Central Plains dynasty since ancient times, and the Ming Dynasty attached great importance to it.

The three of them actually want to wipe out all their achievements with just a few words?

"Why do you want to punish this king? You're still young," Zhu Ming sneered, not even bothering to argue nonsense with them.

Looking at the situation in front of me, I already knew that the two sides were probably at the point of death.

The Ministry of War only has the power to mobilize troops but not to command them. As mentioned before, under the special system of the Ming Dynasty, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies is the institution that has the power to command troops, but it does not have the power to deploy troops.

This is to disperse the military power with one Wen (Ministry of War) and one Wu (Fifth Army Commander's Office) to prevent one party from becoming dominant.

So when this guard force appeared, either Zhu Zhen would die or they would die.

You have crossed the line.

"You dare to speak harshly even when you are about to die? Come on, take down the King of Dian, behead him first and show him off later," Qitai's eyes flashed with a ruthless look.

Again, when things have come to this point, there is no way out.

The King of Dian must die.

"Who dares to touch my eighteenth brother?"

What surprised Zhu Zhen was that Zhu Zhen did not flinch, but took out the sword from his waist and stood up.

Zhu Ming felt warm in his heart. Sure enough, they were brothers. After all, they were brothers.

But he couldn't help but ask: "Brother Sixteen, it turns out that your sword is not a decoration?"

Zhu Zhen looked at Zhu Zhen with a dark look, "How dare you make a joke now?" But he had to admit it, and said in a low voice: "It's unopened, just pretending to be a bluff."

Is co-authorship really a decoration?
Zhu Ming shook his head in a funny way, raised his head and glanced at the city head first, then pulled out a long sword from his waist and handed it over: "You use this."

"What kind of sword is this? It looks good," Zhu Zhen took it without thinking too much.

Just listen to Zhu Min's next sentence: "This is our father's sword, Shang Fang's sword. Seeing the sword is like seeing a person, and it's like I am here in person."

Zhu Ting was dumbfounded. Good guy, this is not something that ordinary people can use.

It was at the moment when Zhu Zhen took out Shang Fang's sword.

"Escort."

The soldiers around suddenly shouted loudly, and then they raised their spears and pointed them at the city wall, shouting: "The traitors Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, and Huang Guan are not going to be captured without mercy?"

what's the situation?
Zhu Xi was stunned.

The three people on the city wall were also dumbfounded.

Qitai shouted angrily: "If you rebel against me, don't you know who is behind me?"

"No one can save you, I said so," a loud shout rang out, and a group of people suddenly walked out in front of them, wearing Feiyu uniforms. Who else could it be if they weren't Jin Yiwei?
The commander of the Jin Yiwei, Jiang Wei, walked at the front, pointed at Qi Tai and the others, and cursed angrily: "How dare you privately deploy troops to set up an ambush here to harm His Royal Highness the King of Dian and His Highness the King of Qing?"

Zhu Ting looked at Jiang Wei and said, "You don't have to force me if you don't want to mention me."

From Jiang Wei's tone, it was obvious that he didn't want to mention him in the first place.

"Do you know that your every move has been seen by His Majesty for a long time? It's just that His Majesty wants to give you a chance. If you can repent temporarily and abandon the darkness and turn to the light, you can be spared. It seems that you are determined to seek death. ," Jiang Wei revealed that it turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang had known the little tricks of these people for a long time.

Yes, Jin Yiwei's spies are everywhere in the world, let alone in this capital city.

Someone once exaggeratedly said that all the people on the street were Jin Yiwei.

Even the palaces of princes, princes and ministers have members of the Imperial Guard.

Jin Yiwei's eyes and ears are extremely unpredictable.

So when a military camp was suddenly mobilized in the capital, how could Zhu Yuanzhang not know about it.

Zhu Yuanzhang not only knew, but even the barracks had received orders and was waiting for the last moment to catch the "true faces" of Qi and Tai in one fell swoop.

Jiang Wei might have been ambushing nearby for a long time, but he appeared at this time and said to Zhu Zhen: "I have seen His Highness the King of Dian. I am late to save you. I hope that His Highness will atone for his sins. Your Majesty learned that His Highness returned to Beijing today, so he specially I’ve been waiting for you, and I want you to enter the palace immediately.”

"Oh?" Zhu Zhen looked at the city head unmoved and said, "Where is he?"

Jiang Wei lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty said that he will give you an explanation."

Zhu Chu laughed and said: "Everyone has finally set up such a scene, and I haven't even seen Jiao'er yet, so you just let me go? Do you really think I need you to rescue me? Why don't you tell me what the hell you are doing?" Whose driver are you here to save?"

Jiang Wei broke into a cold sweat.

Zhu Zheng has killed a million enemies this year alone.

The murderous aura bursting out of his body at this time was as real as if his whole body was wrapped in a layer of bright red blood.

He is simply a god of death.

Zhu Ming lowered his head, looked at Jiang Yu coldly, and said: "Why don't we add you Jin Yiwei together, there will be tens of thousands of people. See if I can kill you all. It's over. Come on, come on, I'll see you. I have never been afraid of millions of enemy troops, so come together."

The people around were dumbfounded. The soldiers in the barracks and the people under the Jinyi Guards were all under secret orders. They seemed to be setting up an ambush to encircle and suppress the King of Dian, but in fact they were to protect him and uncover the rebels.

But why did the King of Dian want to kill them?

"Your Highness," Jiang Wei suddenly plucked up the courage, came to Zhu Chu, and whispered: "Your Majesty also has good intentions. It is not a trivial matter to abolish the reserve, and the man in the city is very deep and tolerant. Even if he put it on you before Even with the dragon-patterned python robe, he can stand still. Your Majesty has gone to great lengths for you, Your Highness. But you cannot go on a killing spree here. After all, he is also your family member."

"Is he paving the way for me again?" Zhu Ming curled his lips, did he use it? Is it useful?
It has to be said that Zhu Ming felt an evil fire in his heart.

Are you being bullied to the point of being bullied, but in the end you can only tolerate it?

Zhu Chu glanced at the system interface that others could not notice. He was ready at any time. He could either take out a big pineapple and kill everyone on the spot, or he could immediately use force points to increase his attributes.

He really didn't take this person seriously.

If he didn't want to protect Brother Sixteen, I'm afraid he wouldn't have to waste resources and force points. The current powerful strength of their family of four would be enough to defeat the few people in front of him.

But what Zhu Zhen didn't expect was that even this step was part of Zhu Yuanzhang's plan.

What about the promised changes to the Xuanwu Gate? What about the promised river of blood?

Are we kidding? Everything is under the control of Emperor Hongwu?
How long will he control us?

Zhu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly and said to Jiang Wei, "I want an explanation."

"Yes."
