I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 662
Moreover, the marriages of these daughters are not bad.

Among them, two daughters have become the concubines of the royal palace, and the others with the lowest official positions are also commanders of Yiwei.

The Guo family can be described as a thriving family with luxuriant branches.

If someone thinks that the power of the Guo family is over, they are very wrong.

A son of Guo Ying's second son Guo Ming inherited the title of Marquis Wuding.

A daughter married the current Liao king Zhu Guijuan.

The other daughter became Li Tian's own concubine.

Calculated in this way, the Guo family has a total of one son-in-law, one prince, two concubines, two imperial concubines, and three generals.

Such a huge family is one of the few in the entire Ming Dynasty.

It is understandable why Li Tian was so surprised when he heard that even a noble family like the Guo family was involved in this matter.

It's no wonder that Huang Yan, the governor of the East Factory, hesitated so much when talking about this family.

In fact, speaking of generals and concubines, others may be particularly afraid, but Li Tian is an emperor after all, so you don't have to worry about these things, as long as you do everything, you're done, there's nothing to discuss .

But the Guo family not only has a concubine of Zhu Yuanzhang, but also a princess, and a concubine of his own.

The combination of these three people is enough for Li Tian to drink a pot.

Although Concubine Guo Su has passed away for many years, she also gave birth to several princes, all of which should be included in the power of the Guo family.

In addition, the younger sister of my own cheap father Zhu Di, and my own aunt, is one of the few elders in existence. If she came to say something to Li Tian, ​​besides agreeing, Li Tian might not be able to accept it. Say more.

There is also Guo Shi, one of his real concubines.

Although Li Tian didn't like her very much, she was the one who gave birth to three sons anyway, and was one of the four great concubines.

The status in the harem is also one of the figures second only to the queen.

Even if Li Tian doesn't look at her face, he still has to give that son's face.

The current Marquis Wu Ding is this little guy's uncle, one of his elder uncles. If he doesn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, it will be more difficult to touch him.

Li Tian thought for a long time, and finally asked Huang Yan with some uncertainty,
"Huang Yan, you are indeed not mistaken, did those people really go to Marquis Wuding's Mansion?"

Huang Yan continued to nod helplessly, saying word by word,
"The old slave is sure that there is no mistake. Those people did go to Wudinghou's mansion."

Li Tian hammered his palm indignantly and helplessly, then sighed,
"What the hell is this Guo Xuan doing? What are you doing in such a idle and boring way? You really are looking for trouble!"

"Huang Yan, have you checked secretly, why did Guo Xuan get involved in this matter?"

Huang Yan hesitated for a moment, then said,

"This matter was found out by the old slave in the afternoon!
The reason why he didn't come to report to His Majesty immediately was because the old slave went to investigate the people who were close to Marquis Wu Ding recently.

The old slave discovered that during the recent period, Marquis Wu Ding and Liao King Zhu Guijuan had very close contacts and often met together.

But they were very vigilant about the meeting, and the old slave made many inquiries, but still failed to find out what they talked about in the meeting. "

When Li Tian heard that another Liao king was involved in this incident, his heart skipped a beat, and he continued to ask,

"Then, have you checked King Liao, has he participated in this matter?"

Huang Yan was silent for a while, then said with a bad face,

"Don't dare to lie to Your Majesty, the old slave has found out that King Liao's activities have been frequent recently, and it is expected to have a lot to do with this matter, and King Liao is very likely to be the mastermind behind the whole thing."

Hearing this, Li Tian's eyes suddenly widened, and his entire popularity almost exploded on the spot.

"Okay, let me just say, Guo Xuan shouldn't have the guts to get involved in this kind of thing. I didn't expect that there would be a Liao king behind him to back him up."

Thinking of the location of the Liao King's feudal state, and the current tension between the Tatars, Valadoyan Sanwei and the court, Li Tian somewhat understood why the Liao King would do such a thing at this time.

Immediately, the possibility of King Liao, the real mastermind behind the scenes, was raised to the highest.

Speaking of the Liaowang family, it can be said that they are all wonderful flowers.

Zhu Zhi, the first king of Liao Dynasty, was Zhu Di's younger brother, and one of the nine princes with real power on the nine borders of the Ming Dynasty. Shizhen Liaodong can also be regarded as a prince with a high position and great power.

His feudal state is not insignificant, crossing Yuguan in the east, crossing the Liaodong Peninsula, controlling the Bohai Sea in the west, controlling Korea in the south, connecting Kaiyuan in the north, controlling the barbarians in the northeast and supervising trade in the market.

The calculation is to have land and land, and to make money.

As the uncompromising king of the Liao Kingdom, he doesn't say that he will manage the fief into the future capital of the country like Zhu Di, and enjoy a world-renowned name, but it should not be difficult to guarantee his own expenses and enjoy the wealth for a lifetime.

Coincidentally, Zhu Yuanzhang died a few years after he became an adult, and then the famous Jingnan Battle took place.

On one side is his nephew Zhu Yunqi, on the other side is his four Zhu Di, both want him to send troops to help, he is in a dilemma.

Originally at this time, choosing to wait and see was the wisest decision.

But in the end, he actually made an unexpected and wonderful decision.

He asked Emperor Jianwen for an imperial decree, directly dropped hundreds of thousands of troops, and ran to the capital by himself, and came to be called to Beijing.

This move made Zhu Yunqi and Zhu Di very angry.

Not to mention Zhu Di, everyone is a prince, one of the important generals of the Nine Sides, and they are all people with feudal states. Jianwen wants to cut down the feudal clan and abolish the Nine Sides.

It's fine if you don't help, but you won't be able to run away directly.

And Emperor Jianwen was even more angry, you said you should come back when you come back, at least bring the frontier army back to guard the capital, but you are good, put down the 10,000+ army, and ran back by yourself, what use is there for you.

In this way, the battle of Jingnan finally ended with Zhu Di's victory.

Naturally, Zhu Zhi's strange behavior was not well received.

In the end, with a big wave of Zhu Di's hand, although he did not withdraw his throne, he reduced his salary to a level worse than that of the county king. Not only that, but also drove him to Jingzhou, Hubei according to Jianwen's intention.

From a powerful prince who commanded the entire Liaodong with a heavy army in his hands, to a grassroots prince who was unknown and grabbed a lot of people, it can be seen how big the gap in his heart is.
