Daming: I was exposed by Zhu Di's Sims life!

Chapter 298 King of Shu: Rebellion?This is not my life!
Chang Shi asked hesitantly: "The tax inspector is easy to dismiss, but the one standing behind the tax inspector..."

The provincial tax inspectors are under the jurisdiction of the two Beijing tax inspectors. Behind the tax inspectors is the one from the East Palace.

The guy from the East Palace, like his old man, started his career with soldiers. That guy is not a good tempered guy.

Gu Wang said lightly: "Do you know who your predecessor is?"

Chang Shi thought for a while and asked, "But Yu Tinggang?"

King Gu asked, "Do you know how Yu Tinggang died?"

Chang Shi knelt down and said, "My lord, calm down!"

Yu Tinggang, who had spoken out many times to persuade him, was executed by King Gu.

In fact, this is not the first history of the palace to persuade the king of Gu. Before that, there was another long history of the palace of the valley, named Liu Jing, who was the mentor of the king of Gu. King Gu is still going his own way.

The name Liu Jing is not well-known, but his father is.

——Bo Liu Ji, courtesy name Bowen, the founding father of the Ming Dynasty. There is still a popular saying among the people that "Zhuge Liang divides the world into three parts, and Liu Bowen dominates the country".

In the past, Nanjing was in a hurry when Jing was in trouble. Liu Jing went to Beijing to offer sixteen strategies but was not adopted by Emperor Jianwen, so he made suggestions for Li Jinglong, but Li Jinglong refused to listen to Liu Jing's strategies and returned in a big defeat.In the second year of Jianwen, Liu Jing went to Beijing with an illness, and entered tens of thousands of words in the "Wenjianlu" to state military affairs. Emperor Jianwen didn't take it to heart.

After Zhu Di came to the throne, he cherished Liu Jing's talent and ordered him to enter Beijing, but Liu Jing refused to go.His Majesty the Emperor thought that this was beyond his control, so he was taken away forcibly.

After going to Beijing to meet the emperor, Liu Jing said: "The minister is the master, and death is not the same. After a hundred generations, your highness cannot escape the word 'usurpation'."

Zhu Di thought to himself that this brother is really kind, so he should go to Zhao Prison honestly.As expected, Liu Jing hanged himself with braids in prison that night.

King Gu asked, "How are you doing what I told you to do?"

Chang Shi said: "The minister has brought Prince Shu to the palace, and he is waiting for you at this time."

King Gu nodded slightly: "My nephew got angry with his father, King Shu, and ran to Changsha to join me. Of course, I want to treat him well as a landlord."

Chang Shi bowed his head and remained silent. Of course he knew that King Gu was not so kind. The reason why he was willing to accept Prince Shu was because Prince Shu looked so much like that one.

……

Chengdu, Sichuan, Shu Palace.

After reading the letter, King Zhu Chun of Shu put it on a candle and roasted it, allowing the secret letter sent from Beijing to be reduced to ashes in the flames.

Gao Zheng, commander of the guards in Chengdu, asked, "My lord, what do you say in Beijing?"

He and the King of Shu are in-laws, and they are in charge of the guards of the King of Shu's mansion. His son Gao Sheng married the eldest daughter of the King of Shu, Princess Changning. Therefore, the Gao family has a very close relationship with the King of Shu's mansion, and Gao Zheng has always been the king of Shu's best friend. A competent go-getter.

The King of Shu said calmly: "The matter has been revealed. Our embezzlement of public taxes, private occupation of private land, and reselling of private salt have all been found out by Shen Qingyu, the newly appointed leader of Jinyiwei. A letter from Beijing, Jinyiwei's people are non-stop Coming here in Chengdu, you must have ordered us from the East Palace to question us."

Gao Zheng's face turned pale: "Well, what should we do, that guy from the East Palace always does everything he can, and we're afraid we'll be doomed this time!"

The King of Shu may not be afraid, because he is the uncle of the Eastern Palace and the younger brother of His Majesty today. The family will not tear their faces apart, at most they will punish one or two.

But his high-ranking government is different, even though his son is married to Princess Changning, he can be regarded as a relative of the emperor, but this is not enough to make Jin Yiwei regress.You know, Jin Yiwei's people, even the King of Han dare to masturbate!
If he is accused of crimes, he will be dismissed from office at the least, and the whole family will be exiled at worst!

The king of Shu shook his head and sighed: "This king has told you long ago, don't touch private salt, that thing is the lifeblood of the imperial court, salt, iron, tea horse, as long as anyone dares to touch it, the imperial court will follow along with you Take your head off."

If it's just embezzling public taxes and privately occupying people's land, it's okay. Which vassal has never done these things, even if they are accused of crimes, as long as the disturbance is not too extreme, at most they will be punished verbally, and His Majesty and the Eastern Palace will not For real. "

Now that the court is investigating, which one of you and I will be spared, don't look at me, I am now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and I can't protect myself. My little nephew Gao Xuan doesn't recognize this level of uncle-nephew relationship. He is so anxious, he dares to kill me . "

The king of Shu is a man of understanding, he is well-versed in classics, elegant in appearance, good in reading, close to Confucian scholars, and able to write articles. The Taizu often called him "Shu scholar".

He is different from those brothers who are good at fighting. He doesn't have the ability to lead troops, but he has the talent to turn danger into luck.

His concubine is the daughter of General Lan Yu, and his son Fu is Fang Xiaoru, a professor of Hanzhong.After Lan Yu's death, more than [-] people were implicated by his henchmen, and Fang Xiaoru was punished by ten clans. However, the King of Shu, who was inextricably related to these two people, was safe and sound. Not only that, but also had a very good relationship with Zhu Di.

After Zhu Di succeeded to the throne, the king of Shu went to the capital to have an audience. The old man once said to him earnestly: "My virtuous brother is benevolent and filial in nature, intelligent and knowledgeable, well-known, well-known by the army and the people. However, the land of Shu is dangerous, and the barbarians live together. Very heavy. Fanbai loves himself to caress his brother."

If possible, the King of Shu really wanted to spend his whole life in peace, but since he was in a high position, he would inevitably be dragged into the whirlpool.

The king of Shu is not ignorant of some dirty things in the palace, but he rarely restrains them.To be honest, he is not short of the money, and he just turns a blind eye to those around him.

But as time went by, he discovered that his in-laws were also involved in the sale of private salt. Helplessly, the king of Shu could only work in it, trying to help the Gao family clean up, but the water inside was too deep. It is even more difficult to wash your hands in the golden basin, but it is not impossible.

However, before the Gao family was cleared, Jin Yiwei found the trace first, and followed the clues all the way to Chengdu. Fortunately, the king of Shu had a wide network, and the informant in Beijing heard the news, so he could make some preparations in advance.

Gao Zheng's face was ferocious: "If you don't do anything, why don't you keep killing people from the Eastern Palace before they come to Chengdu? Let's kill people, destroy the stolen goods, and wash the Jinyiwei in Chengdu. As long as there is no evidence, the Eastern Palace will not be able to touch us!"

King Shu nodded: "Yes."

Gao Zheng was a little surprised: "My lord, do you agree?"

He also thought that with the always cautious character of the King of Shu, even if he could agree, he would hesitate for a long time, but he did not expect to agree so happily.

"I can disagree with anything, but you have to promise me a few things in advance."

The King of Shu said, "First of all, you have to do this by yourself, and you can't involve the Palace of the King of Shu."

Gao Zheng nodded: "It's natural."

The King of Shu said: "Secondly, after you finish killing people and destroying the evidence, bring a bundle of hemp rope to see me, and let me help you go to Beijing to plead guilty and expose your series of crimes. I have committed crimes and meritorious deeds."

Gao Zheng's expression froze: "Your Highness is joking, right?"

The King of Shu said lightly, "You were the one who joked with me first."

Gao Zheng was embarrassed.

After a long time, the King of Shu sneered and said, "Think about it with your dog's brain, can this trick work!"

With the character of my little nephew Gao Xuan, he would just sit and wait for death, just waiting for you to destroy the corpse and cleanse the guilt? "

Do not be silly!With his style, I am afraid that he will kill the person first, and then go through a process of collecting and testifying evidence. If no criminal evidence can be collected, then he will forge a criminal evidence and hand it over. At that time, where will your head be? "

Gao Zheng asked a little aggrieved: "The crown prince acts so recklessly, isn't he afraid of His Majesty's questioning?"

"condemn?"

The King of Shu looked at Gao Zheng like a fool, "What do you think he has to do with His Majesty? He is His Majesty's designated crown prince. In order to make him the crown prince, His Majesty even used some inexplicable crimes to abolish the eldest son. Great power, its status is no less than that of Prince Yiwen in the Hongwu Dynasty!"

Not to mention doing things unscrupulously, I have lived for so many years, and I have never seen my fourth brother spoil anyone so much after the death of Empress Xu. "

Even if the crown prince rebelled, His Majesty would probably only be greatly surprised, ordering the top twelve guards in Beijing to stay where they are and not to hinder the crown prince from usurping the throne! "

If the crown prince rebelled and did not have enough food and grass, maybe His Majesty would ask someone to send him tens of thousands of shi of food and grass! "

As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear. The king of Shu simply doesn't know much about it.

How much the great grandfather doted on his eldest brother Yiwen and the prince Zhu Biao back then, how much the current majesty dotes on the current prince Zhu Gaoxuan!

Gao Zheng had no choice but to ask, "My lord, is there no other way?"

"It's not impossible to find a way."

The King of Shu smiled wryly and took out an exquisite wooden box with a small silver lock on it. After taking off the silver lock, there was a brand new letter inside.

"This is the letter that King Gu just sent me, you can read it yourself."

"King of the Valley?"

With doubts, Gao Zheng opened the letter and flipped through it. He only glanced at it briefly, and was almost scared out of his wits, and the letter fell to the ground.

"King Gu, did he eat the guts of the ambitious leopard? How dare he!"

Gao Zheng quickly said, "Your Majesty, we can't be dragged into the water by King Gu, he has a problem with his mind, and he is possessed by some kind of evil spirit, he is confused, he will lose his head!"

"Of course I know."

The King of Shu sighed, "My stupid son ran to Changsha to join the King of Gu after getting angry with me. This made me a big mess. The bastard, King Gu, is going to rebel. It's not a brain. Is there a pit!"

Gao Zheng said: "The little prince's appearance is indeed..."

"Like that god."

……

"Like, very similar."

"It's so similar."

"At first glance, he is the grandson of the old man."

King Gu glanced in through the crack of the door, and saw that the young man sitting inside was the third son of King Shu, Chongyang King Zhu Yuexiu, and he couldn't help sighing, "My nephew looks exactly like Emperor Jianwen! "

However, compared with Emperor Jianwen, he still lacks one thing. "

King Gu then turned to look at Chang Shi behind him, "I asked you to find a dragon robe worn by Emperor Jianwen, did you find it?"

Chang Shi replied: "Don't worry, my lord, I have already prepared it. In the past, when the Jingnan was in trouble, the city of Nanjing was broken, and the eunuchs and maids in the palace fled in all directions. I found out that an eunuch serving Emperor Jianwen was wearing a dragon robe of Emperor Jianwen. So I took this dragon robe back, as long as King Chongyang wears this dragon robe, even the old minister of Jianwen will not be suspicious when he comes."

"Okay, great!"

King Gu was overjoyed and said, "Go spread the word to the outside world, and say that King Chongyang is Emperor Jianwen. When I was guarding the Jinchuan Gate in Nanjing, I quietly opened the door and let Emperor Jianwen escape at a critical moment. Now Emperor Jianwen has returned to my palace. , I want to support Emperor Jianwen to regain the throne."

Chang Shi was a little hesitant: "My lord, do you really want to do this? This is a rebellion!"

Gu Wang's face turned cold: "Why, do you have a problem with my words?"

"Don't dare."

"Why don't you do it soon?"

"I understand."

Immediately, King Gu changed his kind face, pushed the door open and entered: "Nephew, long time no see, I miss you so much!"

Chongyang King Zhu Yuexiu hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Uncle, nephew is being polite here."

"You're welcome, we're all family."

King Gu waved his hand and said, "This king knows that you had some conflicts with your father, King Shu, and you ran away from home. It's okay. As long as you come to Changsha, this is my territory. You can treat this place as your own home." !"

If you need anything, just tell me, there is anything you want! "

King Chongyang was quite moved, he did not expect his Uncle Gu to be so enthusiastic: "Uncle, this is really a shame for my nephew, how can my nephew bear it."

King Gu said with a smile: "My nephew is too polite. If my king asks for help someday, I hope my nephew will help me too."

The young Chongyang King patted his chest, and said boldly: "Don't worry, uncle, at that time, as long as uncle has a word, I can let my nephew go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire!"

"Alright, alright, nephew, I feel at ease with your words."

……

"My stupid son, King Chongyang, looks very similar to Emperor Jianwen, so I have been hiding in the palace, and I don't want him to go out, so as not to cause disasters. After all, this is to protect him, so that he will not be killed. Someone with a heart took advantage of it."

The King of Shu sighed, "Because this kid has been locked up in the palace all year round, he got into an argument with me and sneaked out. I don't know how the King Gu found out about this, and the swindlers fooled my son into it." The Gu Palace in Changsha."

Gu Wang is a bastard, he actually wants to use my son's appearance to pretend to be Emperor Jianwen, so as to arouse public opinion and take the opportunity to rebel.Gu Wang even wrote me a letter, wanting to pull me to rebel together, does this not kill me! "

Gao Zheng said: "Who lent King Gu the courage to rebel? Previously, the King of Han rebelled with the strength of half of the Shandong Province, and was easily captured by the crown prince, like a plaything in his palm. King Gu's family background is not half that of the King of Han. , how dare he rebel?"

"God knows who lent him courage. His Royal Highness the crown prince in the Eastern Palace killed the Nuer Gandusi, slaughtered the Korean royal family and the Japanese royal family, and killed bloody storms in the southwest. Even his own brother, the King of Han, did not escape. Jie, defeated everyone, but he couldn't wake up King Gu."

The eyes of King Shu shone with wisdom, "I kept this letter from King Gu, and I didn't send it. I originally thought that I would report King Gu, but I didn't expect it to become a tool for us to commit crimes and meritorious deeds."
