This mixed martial arts is not serious

Chapter 167 Royal Drama
(PS: The first two chapters have been slightly revised. The previous logic was a bit illogical. Those who have subscribed can just refresh it.)
······
And military power is the real goal of the second prince Zhu Gaoxu in setting up this game.

Because only by obtaining military power can he create prerequisites for his rebellion plan.

Although the Ming Dynasty has a strong military force, the troops from various places guarding one side have their own responsibilities and cannot be easily mobilized.

Therefore, when the northern border was in crisis, the only army that could be mobilized in the entire Ming Dynasty was the team controlled by Taiping Wang Gongcheng.

With military power.

The second prince could naturally mobilize the troops under King Taiping openly and smoothly enter the northern territory from the southeast of the Ming Dynasty.

Once the army enters the northern border of the Ming Dynasty.

This means that it is only a short distance away from the capital.

It is obviously impossible to mobilize tens of thousands of troops to openly rebel and besiege the capital.

But if you use a deceptive method, let the large group of people continue to go to the border of Northland to attract attention. The second prince and Prince Taiping personally led a small force to attack the capital overnight, and at the same time cooperated with the third prince inside the capital.

Whether it was the 3.5 million taels of dart money or the lives of the thirty-seven members of the Sunflower Sect, they were just insignificant victims in this conspiracy.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were placed under house arrest.

As for Chu Liuxiang, Lu Xiaofeng, Luo Yang... these people.

Similarly, only the second prince Zhu Gaoxu, with his status, could be willing to let the three elders of the Sunflower Sect and people like Jin Jiuling willingly choose to betray the forces behind them, and sacrifice everything for this.

This······
This is the real inside story of this "bodyguard money theft case" and "Sunflower sect massacre case".

"That is to say, from the beginning, the plan of you and the second uncle and the third uncle was impossible to succeed."

Although this period of time seems to be busy and exhausted, in front of the real protagonists of this "royal drama", their roles are actually not much different from clowns in the circus.

Then Zhu Gaoxu has every hope of completing a mutiny quietly.

After listening to Zhu Zhanji’s explanation.

From beginning to end.

After all, rebellion is not a decent topic, not to mention it involves a scandal within the royal family. Even if Zhu Zhanji is willing to tell everyone present about this kind of thing, no one will have the guts to listen.

Perhaps because Taiping Wanggong was not taken seriously enough, he took advantage of the chaos to escape from the capital and fled all the way to Shanhaiguan.

Therefore, in the second half of this incident, although Lu Xiaofeng had already reasoned out the entire case, he did not say much and left it to Zhu Zhanji and Taiping Wang to solve it themselves.

"After that, 3.5 million taels of military pay were stolen out of thin air. Grandpa Huang immediately suspected you and your second uncle."

In the carriage, Zhu Zhanji and King Taiping sat opposite each other and said slowly: "When there was a problem with the military pay on the northern border, Grandpa Huang had already noticed something was wrong and sent me to lead the Jinyi Guards to conduct a secret investigation."

A small group of troops led by Zhu Gaoxu and King Taiping rushed to the capital overnight. As soon as they stepped into the city gate, they were ambushed by Zhu Di, and finally ended the "mutiny" without bloodshed.

Although the layout of the two brothers Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui was tight enough, in the eyes of Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, it was obviously not enough.

Older gingers are more spicy.

But it's a pity.

Just a few days ago.

"Do you understand now? Uncle Wang!"

King Taiping was silent for a moment and said: "That's it. It seems that I won't lose unfairly this time."

"Uncle Wang, do you have any other doubts?"

King Taiping glanced at Zhu Zhanji in front of him, who looked like young Zhu Di at least five times, and suddenly smiled: "There is another one. If you dare to ride in a car with me alone today, aren't you afraid that I will capture you and take you hostage?" Zhu Zhanji He also smiled and said, "Uncle Wang is a smart man, isn't he?"

"Haha~~I really like you now."

King Taiping smiled freely, then waved his sleeves and robes, stepped out of the carriage, and shouted to the dozens of soldiers around him: "Everyone obeys the order."

"Yes."

"This time, I have lost, and I have brought all of you down. Now put down your weapons! Stop resisting fearlessly. I will find a way out for you."

"..."

When King Taiping finished speaking, all the soldiers fell into silence instantly.

At this moment, Zhu Zhanji also stepped out of the carriage. King Taiping bowed his hands and bowed to Zhu Zhanji, saying: "Your Highness Taisun..."

"Uncle Wang, there is no need to say more."

Before King Taiping finished his words, Zhu Zhanji waved his hand and interrupted: "For the sake of past friendship, I can plead with Grandpa Huang and only kill the first culprit."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

King Taiping bowed deeply again.

Then he turned around and said to the soldiers around him: "You all heard it! Everyone dismounts and is bound. This is my last order."

"..."

There was another long silence.

I do not know how long it has been.

Finally, someone took the lead to throw away their weapons and dismount their horses.

This person's actions seemed to trigger a chain reaction. Soon, the sounds of swords and guns falling to the ground were heard one after another, and dozens of royal soldiers got off their horses.

See this.

The surrounding Jin Yiwei immediately swarmed up and arrested all the soldiers.

After all the soldiers were captured, Zhu Zhanji finally said, "Uncle Wang, can you tell me the whereabouts of the escort?"

"Your Highness Taisun still remembers what I just said."

King Taiping said: "I have never thought about betraying the Holy Emperor, and the second prince has never thought about betraying the Ming Dynasty, so we have never planned to steal military pay. In our plan, we only intend to delay the arrival of military pay at the northern border."

"That batch of military pay is hidden in the army that is supporting the border. Calculating time, the 3.5 million taels of military pay should be sent to the border by now."

These words were obviously beyond Zhu Zhanji's expectations, but he did not doubt the authenticity of King Taiping's words.

And just then.

Suddenly another voice came from the distance: "Your Majesty, since the imperial court's 3.5 million taels of military pay have been sent to the border, where is the compensation that was later collected by the Eighth Escort Bureau of the Central Plains?"

This question was naturally asked by Lu Xiaofeng. After all, for Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang, the truth of the case was secondary, and finding the money for the escort was the top priority.

Lu Xiaofeng of the Taiping Dynasty glanced over and said coldly: "The financial resources of you people in the world are far beyond my expectation, but a mere dozen or twenty factions were able to collect 3.5 million yuan." Two pieces of silver.”

"Originally, I never thought about returning this money to you. Unfortunately, time is tight and I didn't have time to deal with it later. Now that money should still be stored at the Twelve Links dock!"
