Daming Super Dimension Company, President Zhu Yuanzhang!

Li Ang hesitated for a long time and finally asked, "Am I still alive?"

"Alive." Xiao Ran nodded, but then added.

"But he is under house arrest in the palace."

Li Shimin looked at Li Ang with disgust, "I guess he will never have a chance to take power again."

What power could an emperor who was forcibly placed under house arrest by eunuchs have?

"What's the outcome of this matter?"

Xiao Ran spoke to Li Shimin again.

"Qiu Shiliang and others are not prepared to let go of any officials who have participated or are in opposition to their own party members, including Wang Fan and others."

"After Wang Fan returned home, he stayed behind closed doors and defended himself with the private soldiers he recruited. The generals of the Shence Army came to search for him, told lies, and persuaded Wang Fan to enter the palace to wait for the reward. Wang Fan was overjoyed. After he went out and learned the truth, he was Forced to see Wang Ya, the two accused each other. Wang Fan knew that he was in the wrong and could not talk to Wang Ya anymore. "

"Later, the Shence Army arrested Luo Liyan and Wang Ya's relatives and slaves in Taiping and imprisoned them. Li Yuangao, a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was Li Xun's distant cousin. Even though Li Xun never promoted him, he was also arrested. Killed. The former Lingnan Jiedushi Hu Zheng's family was rich, and the soldiers of the imperial army killed his son under the pretext that Jia was hiding in his house. Looting property from home.”

"When the capital is in chaos, some people fish in troubled waters, take advantage of the opportunity to avenge their daily personal grievances, kill people at will, plunder the property of merchants and people, and even attack each other."

Li Shimin smashed the corner of the table with an angry look on his face.

Xiao Ran continued calmly: "These things only happened within two days."

"When the officials went to court again, the palace asked them to bring only one entourage. However, the imperial army armed with swords and guns guarded the road. Li Ang went to the Zichen Palace in person and asked Wang Ya and others. Qiu Shiliang directly sent a confession. It was confirmed that it was Wang Li Ang ordered Hu Chu to draw up a book and announce the suppression of the rebellion of Li Xun, Wang Ya and others inside and outside the court. However, when Ling Hu Chu wrote the book and stated the facts of the rebellion, he was superficial and did not get to the point. Qiu Shiliang and others. He was very dissatisfied with this, so Linghu Chu failed to become prime minister."

"The palace was temporarily calm, but the looting in the capital's neighborhoods and markets continued. The imperial court ordered the Shence Army to guard the main intersections of the streets, beat street drums to give warnings, and behead a dozen criminals, and then things settled down."

Li Ang wondered, "Is this the end of the matter?"

"No, Li Xun hasn't caught him yet." Xiao Ran gave a negative answer.

"Besides Li Xun, there are also Jia Tie and others. Jia Tie changed his official uniform and hid in people's homes. Realizing that he could not escape, he put on mourning clothes and took the initiative to be caught. Li Xiaoben changed his official uniform to green and planned to join Zheng Zhu. Here he is. Xianyang was arrested by the pursuers."

"As for Li Xun, he has always been close to Zong Mi, a monk from Zhongnan Mountain. Zong Mi wanted Li Xun to dress up as a monk and hide in the temple. His disciples disagreed, so Li Xun had no choice but to leave the mountain and also planned to join Zheng Mi. Note, he was arrested on the way and escorted to the capital. Li Xun was afraid that he would be beaten and humiliated when he arrived at the Shence Army, so he persuaded the officials who escorted him to cut off his head to receive the reward. "

"Li Xun was arrested. Qiu Shiliang and others immediately ordered the Zuo Shence Army to take Li Xun's head as the leader and escort other captured officials to sacrifice to the Taimiao Temple and Taishe Shrine. They were paraded in the streets of Beijing and central cities, and hundreds of officials were ordered to watch. Finally, They were cut in half and their heads were hung on the city gate. All the relatives of Li Xun and others, young and old, were among them, and their wives and daughters were confiscated as official slaves. "

At this time, Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where is Zheng Zhu?"

Zheng Zhu is greedy for money, but he is also a person who abides by his promises.

"Zheng Zhu is still training soldiers in Fengxiang, and he doesn't know the situation in Beijing yet." Xiao Ran felt that Li Xun was simply a "talent" when he said it.

If the eunuchs were killed according to the original plan, maybe it would be possible.

"When the agreed time came, Zheng Zhu led his troops from Fengxiang and arrived at Fufeng County. Han Liao, the magistrate of Fufeng County, had already known about his conspiracy with Li Xun and refused to receive him. He took the county seal and subordinates and fled to Wugong. Zheng Note that it was only at this time that he learned about Li Xun’s failure and returned directly to Fengxiang with his soldiers.”

"When he goes back, Qiu Shiliang and others don't want to let him go. They send someone with the emperor's secret edict to Zhang Zhongqing, the supervisor of Fengxiang, and order him to kill Zheng Zhu. Zhang Zhongqing followed the advice of his subordinates and set up an ambush to wait for Zheng Zhu. Zheng Zhu relied on He had soldiers, so he came straight to see Zhang Zhongqing. Zhang Zhongqing took Zheng Zhu's soldiers outside and entertained them. Only Zheng Zhu and a few followers entered the inner hall. After Zheng Zhu drank tea, he was escorted by Uncle Li. and beheading with a sword.”

"They soon killed all Zheng Zhu's soldiers. Zhang Zhongqing produced the emperor's secret edict, announced Zheng Zhu's guilt to the soldiers, and killed Zheng Zhu's family members and officials who were involved with Zheng Zhu."

"Before the news of Zheng Zhu's execution reached the capital, Li Ang was forced to issue an edict to remove Zheng Zhu from his position and title, and ordered the neighboring vassal towns near Fengxiang to observe what was going on in the city. At the same time, he appointed Zuo Shence General Chen Junyi Finally, Zhang Zhongqing sent Li Shuhe and others to present Zheng Zhu's head, and the capital was finally restored to peace."

The Manna Rebellion started suddenly and ended tragically.

After the original four prime ministers, Li Xun, Wang Ya, Jia Yu, and Shu Yuanyu, were killed in the Manlu Incident, Zheng Tan and Li Shi became prime ministers. They wanted to make trouble, but Qiu Shiliang often reprimanded them.

"Is there nothing I can do and no one can help me?!" Li Ang clenched his fists and asked unwillingly.

Li Shimin's face darkened, and he raised his hand to hit him in the face, "I'm here, who else do you need?"

"It's just a bunch of kids."

"Please help His Majesty Taizong!" Li Ang knelt down happily, ignoring the burning on his cheeks.

Li Shimin snorted coldly and waved his hands in disgust, "Go and summon Qiu Shiliang, Wang Shoucheng, Li Xun, and Zheng Zhu."

"Don't forget Yu Hongzhi." Xiao Ran reminded from the side.

These five people are the source of chaos.

"Yes!"

Li Ang walked out of the hall quickly, feeling very excited.

In the hall, Li Shimin's face darkened and he asked in a cold voice: "What will happen to my descendant?"

"The Manna Rebellion ended, and Li Ang was put under house arrest by the eunuchs. Political affairs were exclusively under the authority of the eunuchs, and the two prime ministers only had clerical duties. The eunuchs in the court were overbearing, threatening the emperor, despising the prime minister, and bullying the courtiers like a fool. Li Ang had no choice but to drink to get drunk. Poetry. He only said that he was a slave and his situation was not as good as that of King Nan of Zhou and Emperor Xian of Han."

"In the fifth year of Kaicheng's reign, in 840 AD, Li Ang became depressed and ill and could not get out of bed, so he called two prime ministers and asked them to assist the prince in supervising the country. After hearing the news, Qiu Shiliang and Yu Hongzhi directly forged a will and deposed the prince as Chen The king appointed Ying Wang Li Yan as the crown prince, responsible for handling military and state affairs, and took Li Yan to the court to meet with officials. Li Ang had no choice but to die in the Taihe Hall of Daming Palace in Chang'an. "(End of this chapter)
