Daming: The Sims, Lao Zhu’s mentality collapsed

Chapter 27 Zhu Rui: Fengtian Jingnan!
  Looking at His Highness King Yan in front of him, who looked like a wild man from the mountains, Zhu Ru fell into deep thought.

He asked in confusion: "Fourth brother, are you coming from the border on a donkey?"

Zhu Di was about to cry but had no tears: "I ran away from the palace secretly. I thought that with my martial arts skills, I would be able to roam freely without swordsmanship, and I wouldn't be too embarrassed. But it turned out that people's hearts are sinister, and I met several people on the road. The gang of horse bandits almost killed everyone."

His Highness King Wu asked the question he wanted to ask the most: "What do you want to do? Why do you come here after all the hard work?"

When Zhu Di heard this, he was no longer sleepy, and said brightly: "Lao Wu, you are not kind. You agreed that I would be your fist and my brain, but you sneaked into the army alone. You actually have such a good thing." Don’t take me with you?”

Zhu Tong paused and asked hesitantly: "So, you came here to find me?"

"Of course, we two brothers share the joys and sorrows, the blessings and the hardships. I'm just here to find you."

Zhu Di grinned widely and said, "I heard about your heroic achievements on the road. Now the story of you 'thousands of troops avoid white robes' is being circulated all over the country. With your military achievements, you must have been promoted, right?"

Zhu Zhu nodded: "Well, Wei Guogong jointly asked all the generals to thank me for being promoted to three levels in a row. I was promoted from the commander of the third cavalry battalion of the former army to the second-level deputy commander-in-chief."

"Okay, now that you have become a high-ranking official in the Northern Expeditionary Army, you must not give your brother a good position. You have become the deputy governor. You have to give the fourth brother the entire Qianzong. We two brothers fight side by side. , it’s beautiful just thinking about it, haha...ha?”

Zhu Di's smile gradually faded, "The former commander of the cavalry battalion was promoted to deputy governor... Have you been promoted or demoted, and your real power has become an empty title?"

The deputy governor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is indeed of the second grade.

But is there something wrong with the gold content of this genuine second product?

Although the Metropolitan Governor's Office is responsible for commanding the army, there are seven or eight Governors and Deputy Governors alone, and there are even more Deputy Governors. The deputy governor Zhu Zhu was placed above, but it was more like a false title that was mostly honorary.

But for a prince, the false title of the second rank is of little use!
  A false title is nothing more than a display of dignity, but even if he is the first-class Governor Zuo, can he be as dignified as a prince?
  This is not as good as a cavalry battalion commander who is actually in charge of two thousand soldiers and horses!
  Zhu Rui patted Fourth Brother on the shoulder with pity: "Fourth Brother, you are late. Brother, I have to go back to the capital!"

When he came to the Northern Expedition for such a walk, he was actually plating gold. However, neither Lao Zhu nor Xu Da expected that his gold plating would turn into real gold, and he would achieve great success in one blockbuster.

But no matter what, he should return to the capital.

For him, the real power position of the Northern Expeditionary Army was meaningless. He would definitely have to withdraw when he returned to the capital. It was not as beneficial as the virtual title of the second rank, which could always be hung on his head.

If we really want to talk about rewards, it must be given by Lao Zhu himself when Zhu Zhu returns to the capital.

Zhu Di was about to cry but had no tears: "Lao Wu, you are lying to me, right? Are you making trouble with me?"

He went through hardships and ran from Nanjing to the border to look for Zhu Zhu. But now Lao Wu told him that his brother was going back to the capital?

If Zhu Xi leaves, why is Zhu Di still here?

When he was in the capital, Zhu Ru ran away. He is now at the border, and Zhu Di is running away again, so isn’t Zhu Di coming here in vain?
  ……

Lao Zhu, who was in a good mood, chose to continue the simulation.

It's just that because the simulation of Zhu Di was not completed last time, I have to continue simulating this kid this time.

[Due to the effects of changes in reality, the content of the simulation has changed. ]     Lao Zhu was a little curious, change, what change?
  Could it be because of Lao Wu?
  [In the fifth month of the thirty-first year of Hongwu, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Hongwu died, and the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen came to the throne. He also ordered the kings to stay in the feudal country and not to attend the funeral in the capital. You went from Peiping to Nanjing, but were stopped because of Zhu Yunwen's edict. 】

[As the newly ascended Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen began to reduce vassal vassals, you became the most severely targeted person. Your troops in Peiping have been transferred to other places, and the officials in the city have also been replaced, and you are almost reduced to a mere commander. 】

[You know that Emperor Jianwen is here for you, but at this time you still have not made up your mind to rebel. 】

[You do want to be the emperor, but you don’t want to rebel, but this is impossible. You want to have the supreme power of the emperor, but you don't want to be charged with rebelling. Besides, the cost of rebellion is too high. If you are not careful, your whole family will be buried with you. 】

[But what Emperor Jianwen did next made you completely furious and determined to rebel. 】

[In the first year of Jianwen, Zhu Yunwen ordered Cao Guogong Li Jinglong to lead his troops to raid Suzhou, capture Wu King Zhu Ji who had already handed over military power, deposed him as a commoner, and exiled him to Yunnan. 】

[For Emperor Jianwen, King Zhu Zhu of Wu no longer poses any threat. His fifth uncle had handed over military power long before the death of the late emperor, but Emperor Jianwen was still worried about his fifth uncle. 】

[In addition to the irreconcilable relationship between King Wu and you, what is more important is that King Wu made great military exploits during the Northern Expedition and has a high prestige. Even if he handed over the military power, he could summon tens of thousands of veterans of the Northern Expedition with just one shout. 】

[With such a hidden danger, Emperor Jianwen certainly couldn't keep him. The first person to be deposed was the fifth uncle. 】

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned.

Here’s the problem with co-authorship!
  Just because of Lao Wu's outstanding performance in the Northern Expedition, Emperor Jianwen was jealous. In the original simulation, Lao Wu was supposed to have been safe and sound during the process of reducing the vassal, until he stabbed Zhu Yunwen in the back at the end. But now because of his meritorious service in the Northern Expedition, Emperor Jianwen was afraid of him, so he was crippled by this old man.

Now that Lao Wu is gone, I am afraid that Yan King Zhu Di's performance in the Battle of Jingnan will not be as smooth as before.

[King Wu was deposed and exiled to Yunnan, which completely touched your bottom line. 】

[You have always tolerated Emperor Jianwen and were unwilling to rebel. But now that Emperor Jianwen has taken action against the King of Wu, you can't bear it anymore. You immediately led eight hundred royal guards to capture the nine gates of Peking. The next day, you announced the proclamation of Fengtian Jingnan and vowed to go to war! 】

[This battle lasted from the first year of Jianwen to the third year of Jianwen. It was a fierce battle for a long time. You and Emperor Jianwen fought hard and bloody. Both sides have their own advantages and it is difficult to distinguish the winner. 】

[If you had not been so anxious when you rebelled, and could wait patiently for a better opportunity, maybe you would not be in this situation now, but you do not regret your impulsive move. If you had it to do over again, you would still do it! 】

[Although you had a huge advantage in the early stages of the battle, after all, you were fighting against the whole country with the power of one place. As the war continued, your disadvantages and decadence became more and more obvious, but the imperial court still stood firm on Mount Tai, as if standing firm. In an invincible position. 】

[But you didn’t give up. You became more and more fierce, determined to make Emperor Jianwen unable to secure his throne even if you were defeated! 】

[You select elites from the army and personally lead a lone division south, determined to launch an unprecedented collision against Nanjing. This is your last resistance and a desperate battle! 】

[At this moment, you got a military report that shocked you. 】

[This military report is not that the imperial army has surrounded you, or other bad news. On the contrary, it is good news, so good that it catches you off guard. 】

[——The exiled King of Wu Zhu Zhu raised troops from Menghua. At this time, he had occupied the territory of the four southwestern provinces of Yunnan, Guangxi, Guizhou, and Sichuan. He had 300,000 troops. He openly declared that Fengtian was in trouble and sent troops to Nanjing. ! 】

[You almost thought you had received a fake military newspaper! 】
