Daming heir

Chapter 20 The Will of the Gatekeeper
As soon as Lan Yu, the Duke of Liang of the Ming Dynasty, spoke, the scene fell silent.

Sapphire had a gloomy look on her face, sweeping over everyone present.

There were not too many people present today, but all of them were singled out, and they were all powerful generals who commanded over ten thousand troops.

Sapphire's sights passed one by one.

The second son of Kaiping Wang Chang Yuchun was the founding father Chang Sheng, Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen, Heqing Hou Zhang Yi, Huining Hou Zhang Wen, Puding Hou Chen Huan, Dongchuan Hou Hu Hai, Chaga Hou Zhu Shou, Dongguan Bo He Rong, and Hui Xian Bo Sang Jing.

All of them are the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty, the princes and counts of the country.

At this moment, the faces of these people were different, and they were discussing a lot before, but now their eyes kept wandering on Lan Yu and Chang Sheng who were sitting above them.

If Zhu Yunxi was here now, he would probably yell and call.

Brothers are all here!

Are they discussing how to be beheaded by their grandfather, or are they discussing how to escape?

It's not a joke, but it's because everyone present today, without exception, will be recorded as a traitor by Zhu Yuanzhang after the unfortunate death of the crown prince Zhu Biao next year, and be executed for treason.

Perhaps many of them have committed crimes.

However, do these people really harbor treasonous intentions?

Even if Lan Yu was regarded as the main culprit, even though he was very domineering and arrogant in the past, how dare he have the slightest intention of rebelling in front of Zhu Yuanzhang?
I'm afraid that before this idea is born, he has already scratched his own brain.

Is it true that the heads chopped off in Yingtian City in the previous years were just decorations?

All in all, the real core reason is that after the death of the crown prince, Zhu Yuanzhang cleared away the obstacles in front of Zhu Yunqi in advance in order to allow Zhu Yunqi to sit safely on the throne of the Ming emperor.

Let's just say that among these people on the court today, if you count them in detail, which one is the most loyal to Zhu Yunqi?

In the earlier years, these people would have supported Zhu Xiongying, the eldest son and grandson of the Ming Dynasty who truly deserved it.

After Zhu Xiongying's early death, the position was naturally transferred to Zhu Yunxi, the eldest son and grandson.

Let's talk about the two sitting at the top right now.

Chang Sheng, the founding father, was Zhu Yunxi's uncle.

Lan Yu, Duke of Liang, is Zhu Yunxie's great-uncle.

Going forward, all of these Hou Bos present here were working under Kaiping Wang Chang Yuchun back then, and even in earlier years, they might have been on duty for Kaiping Wang to guard the central army tent.

Just because of this reason, after the death of the crown prince Zhu Biao, they would never be able to support the eldest son Zhu Yunqi, but would fully support the eldest son Zhu Yunxi.

It is precisely because of this important reason that Zhu Yuanzhang later killed all the people present for the crime of treason.

Even, further expanded.

A total of 73 people were executed in the Dudufu of the Five Armies.

A total of 370 three people were beheaded by the guards under the jurisdiction of the Dudufu of the Five Armies.

The twelve guards of the pro-army beheaded more than [-] people.

Further down, there are countless officers and soldiers in the guards, wealthy businessmen, luxury and extravagances, officers and soldiers and ordinary people.

From Zhu Yuanzhang's point of view, there is nothing wrong with this matter.

He absolutely maintained the normal succession to the throne of the Ming Dynasty and the stability of the throne.

The alternation of politics never takes good and evil as the final judgment.

Even Zhu Yunxi also believed that if he put himself in Zhu Yuanzhang's position and thought about it, he would also make the same choices and methods as the old man.

But now, if he stands on the scene, he will definitely perform another performance and try his best to make these people support him even more.

No other.

Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun!

But at this time, the court was presided over by the two princes, Lan Yu and Chang Sheng.

Lan Yu saw that everyone had calmed down, and her face softened a little: "I know your thoughts. Presumably, Duke Founder knows better!"

As she spoke, Lan Yu squinted at Chang Sheng, the founder of the country.

He is Zhu Yunxi's second uncle, now in Kaiping King's lineage, the eldest Chang Mao is sick and recuperating at home.

It is also for this reason that the Kaiping king family is now chaired and represented by the founding father Chang Sheng.

Chang Sheng looked at Lan Yu and smiled: "I know everyone's thoughts. But right now, it's too early to say."

The two father-in-laws opened their mouths, and Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, stared at the tea table and said: "We all came from Fengyang, the central capital. How do we say that in our hometown, the family business It was inherited by the eldest son! Yes! This is it!"

Cao Zhen said indignantly: "Now, Your Majesty has also set up the emperor's ancestral precepts early in the morning, and set the rules for the succession of the sons. No matter what happens in the future, this Ming Dynasty... should belong to the third master. !"

The third master refers to Zhu Yunxi.

He is the third child in the East Palace.

After Cao Zhen finished speaking, Zhang Yi, Marquis of Heqing, whose hometown is Fengyang, the central capital, took up the words: "Let's just say one thing, counting forward is because of the presence of the uncle.

In recent years, the uncle died early, and the third master was cowardly. Let's not say anything. After all, our Ming Dynasty needs a capable person to be in charge.

But now, the third master has shown his true abilities, so let's not say anything. If it is not the third master in the future, we will leave the pick and go back to Fengyang to farm! "

Lan Yu glared, and pointed at Zhang Yi: "You stinky mound! There is still a prince behind your majesty, and Yunxi is below the prince. You old man thinks that you can live until then? How dare you talk about picking someone up!"

Zhang Yi didn't care about Lan Yu's scolding at this time, and he also stared straight at his eyes: "General, did we say something wrong? Those of us present here either came out of their hometown with His Majesty back then, or were trained by King Kaiping A person who is favored by the prince. In good conscience, have you not seen or heard the performance of the third master in the past few days?"

Seeing Zhang Yi chattering endlessly, he revealed his heart.

The rest also spoke out again.

"Now that I've counted the Eastern Palace, we think the third master is worthy!"

"It's been so many years since my uncle died, and we've been silent for so many years. Now that the third master suddenly realizes it, if we don't express it, it will be unreasonable."

"What Lao Cao said is right. If we live to that time and the third master is not in power, we will go back to Fengyang to farm and herd cattle!"

Although His Majesty and the Crown Prince have been present in the court these years, the controversy over the third generation of the Ming Dynasty has long been undercurrent.

Everyone is betting, and they all want to set a three-generation glory in advance and rest with the country.

Seeing the scene heated up again.

The founding father, Chang Sheng, coughed softly: "Although Yunxi has changed from the past, he has been studying military affairs in Jiujiang Mansion for several days, and there are new and strange remarks made every day.

But I wait for the reward of eating the king, and I should be loyal to the king.Now that His Majesty is in good health and the crown prince is in his prime, stop talking nonsense, lest it spread and let people with ulterior motives frame us. "

After finishing speaking, Chang Sheng couldn't help but secretly sighed.

The people present almost represent the junior generals of the Ming Dynasty. Now that their wills are united, no one knows what will happen to the effect they will have in the court.

At this time, if you don't suppress yourself, the consequences will be unpredictable.

But he is also Zhu Yunxi's uncle, and he is extremely happy to have such thoughts about the generals.

In the early years, Xiongying passed away at an early age, His Majesty was heartbroken, and the Prince could hardly sleep at night.

His Chang family was also mournful from top to bottom, full of mourning.

Who wouldn't want the person sitting in that seat in the palace to also have his own blood flowing through his body.

If Zhu Yunxi hadn't been too much these years...

It's too bad.

Chang Sheng didn't even go to the East Palace less often.

It's just that Zhu Yunxie's nature has changed recently. These days, he was studying military affairs in Cao Guogong's mansion and was often praised by Li Jiujiang, but it was unexpected to Chang Sheng.

Everyone gathered here today, nominally to discuss the recent Beizheng, but secretly because of the previous remarks.

He came to see the attitude of these people.

Thinking about something in his heart, Chang Sheng couldn't help but lose his mind.

At this time, someone suddenly rushed in from outside, dressed in brocade, with a white linen indiscriminately on the outside, and a straw rope tied around his waist.The appearance is very similar to Chang Sheng, but he is a little younger.

After the man rushed in, he shouted out of breath.

"Second brother!"

"Brother is dead!"
