I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 95
Zhu Gaoxu's panicked appearance made Li Tian confused.Isn't it just taking office as a fief? Why did Zhu Gaoxu react so much? Could it be that he was too moved?
Pulling Zhu Gaoxu up from the ground, Li Tian put on a calm look on his face, and said with a smile like a spring breeze:
"Look at what you said, if we weren't blood brothers, could elder brother treat you like this?"

What does this mean? To kill me, I have to set up a memorial archway.Zhu Gaoxu was stunned when he heard the words, and his head immediately rolled over.

Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu's eyes were blank, Li Tian smiled slightly and didn't think otherwise. It seemed that Zhu Gaoxu was really shocked by the sudden surprise.

"Gao Xu, it's normal for the prince to go out and take up the fief, so don't get too excited, take a good rest and recuperate, and I will personally..."

Not wanting to watch Li Tian's performance any longer, Zhu Gaoxu gritted his teeth and mustered up his courage to say:

"Brother Huang, don't talk about it. It's enough for my younger brother to step down as the commander of Jinyiwei, but for the matter of going out, I also ask my younger brother to think about my father and my mother."

Li Tiangang was talking about being excited when he was suddenly interrupted by Zhu Gaoxu, and hearing Zhu Gaoxu say such words, he suddenly felt a little unhappy and said:

"How can it be said that you are resigning from office? Could it be that Gao Xu, you think that elder brother is dismissing you from office? Also, what does it have to do with your father, queen, and queen when you go out?"

Seeing Li Tian's calm expression, Zhu Gaoxu clenched his fists, feeling both angry and scared.

Annoyed that Li Tian is still acting with him at this point, and afraid that Li Tian would dare to take him first, he must be fully prepared.

Thinking about his seven wives, and thinking about his more than a dozen children, Zhu Gaoxu felt so embarrassed in his heart, he threw away those unrealistic fantasies, and directly knelt on his knees and said:
"Brother, tell me, how can I let my younger brother go, is it possible that only Gao Xu's death can make my brother feel relieved?"

Hearing this, Li Tian finally felt that something was wrong, Zhu Gaoxu didn't seem to be moved.

Seeing Li Tian's silence, Zhu Gaoxu's back instantly stood up. He guessed right, the eldest brother wanted his life.

The brothers of the emperor's family must cut the grass and root out the wall. The ancients did not deceive people.

Li Tian came back to his senses, seeing Zhu Gaoxu's expression of seeing death like home, he shook his head dumbfounded, pulled Zhu Gaoxu up from the ground again and said:
"What are you talking about? When did I say I was going to kill you? I told you to leave Jin Yiwei alone, not to dismiss your post, but to let you rest for a few days to ease your mood.

And when you go out, don't you and Gao Sui dream of escaping from my sight? "

As soon as the words caught his ears, Zhu Gaoxu actually believed eight points in his heart, but he was still half-believed and said:
"Then why did the elder brother ask the younger brother to go out and join the feudal clan tomorrow? Why are you so eager?"

"Damn it, is that my anxiety?"

Seeing Zhu Gaoxu's suspicious expression, Li Tian couldn't help scolding:
"Father died on the fifth day of the seventh month. Today is the fifth day of the eighth month. The national funeral will be over tomorrow. I didn't say that because you were in a hurry?"

It turned out that it was all a false alarm, Zhu Gaoxu subconsciously wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and said embarrassingly:
"It's all my fault that my younger brother has been thinking wildly all day long, and made my elder brother laugh at me."

Li Tian didn't speak, recalling Zhu Gaoxu's previous words in his mind, he just felt all right.

It turned out that after Zhu Gaoxu lost his military power, he was afraid that he would be so afraid that he just let him go out of Beijing, so he thought he wanted his life.

The Zhu Gaoxu in history didn't seem to be like this, but after thinking about it, Li Tian understood.

It is true that Zhu Gaoxu is arrogant and arrogant, but military power is the capital of his arrogance. Without military power, Zhu Gaoxu naturally loses the courage to challenge him.

"Gao Xu, let me ask you something."

"Brother, tell me." Without the fear of his life, Zhu Gaoxu looked a lot more natural, and listened.

"You dragged your own soldiers to practice outside Zhengyang Gate that day, which god gave you the idea?"

Zhu Gaoxu's face darkened when he heard the words, and he pursed his lips tightly for a long time. After carefully considering his words, he sighed:

"It was the idea of ​​the staff in the courtier's house."

"Then killing a horse and making an oath is also the idea given by your staff?"

"Of course not." Knowing in his heart that he had no chance anymore, Zhu Gaoxu calmed down a lot, as if he was talking about other people's affairs:

"Slaying a horse to make an oath was a helpless move by this younger brother in a hurry. If this younger brother didn't do that, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the chance to stand here and talk to my elder brother today."

In my heart, I thanked the god who gave Zhu Gaoxu an idea that day, Li Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled and said:
"So, Gao Xu, do you really want to usurp the throne?"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't answer Li Tian's words, paused, and asked with a wry smile:
"If the younger brother says no, will the eldest brother believe it?"

"Of course I don't...Of course I believe it." Li Tian half-spoken, and hurriedly changed his answer.

When it came to this point, both Li Tian and Zhu Gaoxu knew it well, and no one would continue to talk about it.

"Your Majesty, Admiral Huang suppressed Habayashi Wei Zhonglang and brought Jiang Yu back."

The sound of Jiang Bao knocking on the door to report came from outside the door, and Li Tian was relieved immediately, and finally he didn't have to continue to be embarrassed:
"Bring Jiang Yu in first, tell Huang Yan, and bring Guo Liuhu here too."

"Here."

There was a creaking sound of pushing the door, Jiang Bao grabbed Jiang Yu's shoulder bone with one hand and dragged him in, looked respectfully at Li Tian and said:

"Your Majesty, this guy is Jiang Yu, the general of Habayashi Wei Zhonglang. He turned a blind eye and let him go out of the palace."

Nodding his head slightly, Li Tian signaled Zhu Gaoxu to sit back and fixed his eyes on Jiang Yu.

I saw that Jiang Yu was not tall, but her arms were extremely thick.

She clearly has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but her mouth is like a woman's. At this time, Jiang Yu's face was pale, and she already knew what happened. Seeing the emperor looking at her, her legs softened, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed:

"All the crimes will be borne by the humble official. I only hope that your majesty will give the humble official a good time. Don't embarrass Eunuch Guo."

The old eunuch in the palace teamed up with the general of the personal guard, which Li Tian did not expect.

If civil servants are the first to look down on eunuchs, then generals can definitely be counted as the second. Hearing that Jiang Yu wanted to take responsibility, Li Tian couldn't help but feel suspicious:
"Jiang Bao, what is his relationship with Guo Liuhu?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this old slave doesn't know either."

Seeing that the emperor was suspicious of his relationship with Eunuch Guo, Jiang Yu's face flashed with panic:

"Your Majesty, there is no need to investigate. The humble position has nothing to do with Eunuch Guo."

Jiang Yu's previous panic was enough for Li Tian to confirm his conjecture, and immediately said calmly:

"If you say no, then there will be no more? Let's talk about it after I find out."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to investigate, Eunuch Guo is a humble adoptive father."

Knowing that he couldn't hide it, Jiang Yu suddenly collapsed on the ground, feeling powerless all over.
