Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 573 Intrigue
The officials looked at Yuan Zhen with the eyes of a warrior, and the one who dared to poke Zhu Houzhao's spine in this hall was No. 1, and such rebellious and rampant behavior would surely lead to his death.

Being accused of disloyalty, filial piety, and injustice, Zhu Houzhao was furious, but he was not in a hurry to kill Yuan Zhen.

He said coldly: "I don't know what scheme Master Yongle has in sending you to provoke me, but you must die."

He didn't care much about his reputation like floating clouds, but he also wanted face.

Being pointed at his nose and yelling at him is such a shame, how can he swallow that bad breath, he is not the Song Renzong who resigned himself to it.

"Don't be afraid of death!"

Yuan Zhen held his head high and held his chest high, and went to die generously.

Zhu Di couldn't tolerate him, and made Zhu Houzhao so angry that his way had come to an end.

Breathing out fragrance unscrupulously is indeed very enjoyable, but it is a pity that after the pleasure, the price to be paid is life.

"Drag down, chop."

Zhu Houzhao didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered the warriors in front of the palace to take Yuan Zhen away and kill him.

Afterwards, the interest faded and said: "Retire."

Yuan Zhen's good mood was disturbed, and he was no longer in the mood to chat with the ministers about this and that.

Once Yuan Zhen died, Zhu Di's calculation was considered to be accomplished.

When the two countries met, Zhu Houzhao killed Yuan Zhen without beheading the envoy, which can be said to have broken the rules.

Regardless of whether Yuan Zhen's words and deeds were inappropriate, it was wrong for Zhu Houzhao to kill Yuan Zhen. Zhu Di firmly grasped this point, challenged Zhu Houzhao, and asked Zhu Houzhao to give an explanation.

"Tell me, heh, Master Yongle is very calculating."

Throwing away the condemnation letter written by Zhu Di himself sent by the new envoy of Yongle Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao smiled disdainfully.

Things have evolved to this point, if he doesn't understand Zhu Di's calculations, he is no longer Zhu Houzhao.

Let the foul-mouthed Yuan Zhen irritate him, use his hands to get rid of Yuan Zhen, and then use excuses to make trouble and ask him for benefits.

Zhu Houzhao had to admit that Zhu Di's trick was very clever, and it was similar to the trick he used to kill Zhu Qizhen, and he was indeed fooled.

But it is impossible for him to give an explanation and pay a lot of practical benefits.

Zhu Di is a wolf who eats meat all over the world, so why not Zhu Houzhao.

Yuan Zhen spoke out loud and humiliated him and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. He also wanted to benefit Zhu Di. There is no such good thing in the world.

"Father, how should we deal with this matter?"

Zhu Qiyuan said with a headache.

The new envoy of the Yongle Dynasty has been clamoring for an explanation, otherwise the Yongle Dynasty will not let it go, he is the first and the second big for this.

"How to deal with it?"

Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, and said with a firm attitude: "Don't worry about it, if they want to make trouble, let them do it."

"I want to see how Master Yongle wants to play this time."

After killing Zhu Qizhen, the balance of coexistence between the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty was broken, and sooner or later the emperors of the Ming Dynasty would take action. He had expected this, but he didn't expect that Zhu Di would be the first to do it.

But so what if it was Zhu Di, who was Zhu Houzhao afraid of?

Hurt each other and see who can afford it first!

The boss of the sky, the second child of the earth, and the third child of me, Zhu Houzhao is not so arrogant, but he is also arrogant and does not accept any threats or calculations.

He will only fight back with a stronger posture if he is plotting against him.

In short, if the storm is coming, let him come and stay with him to the end.

"Send an order to Qi Jiguang and tell him that it's time for Zhen Haijun to move."

"If a tiger doesn't show its power, some people think I'm easy to bully."

Zhu Houzhao thought about it carefully, and decided to frighten Zhu Di who was about to move.

Sending the foul-mouthed Yuan Zhen to scold him, and even asked him to cut up his flesh and let his blood out, Zhu Di was lost, or did he think that Zhu Houzhao couldn't handle a knife?

Send Zhen Haijun, who suppressed the East China Sea, to take a walk around the sea to see if Zhu Di dares to tear his face apart.

"Father, it's wrong to do this!"

Zhu Qiyuan was taken aback when he mobilized the army when he disagreed, and quickly persuaded Zhu Houzhao.

Just won the orthodox dynasty, and before it has had time to digest, it is going to compete with the Yongle dynasty, which will easily cause the foundation to be unstable.

Gazing at Zhu Qiyuan, Zhu Houzhao said angrily, "It's just a little deterrent."

"At this juncture, our dynasty needs to digest the newly acquired territory, and the other dynasties are not yet ready to turn against me. They won't be able to fight within a year or so."

He saw the situation clearly, and the emperors of the Ming Dynasty would never act rashly before they were completely sure.

"My son will arrange it now."

Zhu Qiyuan is not stupid either, Zhu Houzhao made a few calls, and he instantly understood the stakes of the matter.

Killed the No.1 mouth of Yongle Dynasty, and gave no explanation symbolically, completely ignoring his condemnation.

Zhu Houzhao's arrogance really made Zhu Di angry, but he had nothing to do with Zhu Houzhao.

He just wanted to blackmail Zhu Houzhao with an excuse, and had no intention of tearing apart Zhu Houzhao.

The three giants of the Ming Dynasty are far more powerful than other dynasties. Even if they fight with Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Di is not afraid that other dynasties will take advantage of the fire.

But Lao Zhu is his biggest concern. If Yongle Dynasty and Taiwu Dynasty fight, Lao Zhu will definitely watch the fire from the other side, and even add fuel to the flames.

Zhu Di knew Lao Zhu very well. As long as he and Zhu Houzhao got into a fight, Lao Zhu would most likely stab him and Zhu Houzhao in the back.

Kill him and Zhu Houzhao, the other dynasties combined are no match for Lao Zhu.

At that time, Lao Zhu will rule the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty, and the throne will return to Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao's lineage.

As for Yongle's lineage, if nothing unexpected happened, they would have to sacrifice their lives to Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao's lineage for generations to come.

Based on various reasons, even though Zhu Houzhao did not give him an explanation, and ordered Qi Jiguang to lead Zhen Haijun to the territory of Yongle Dynasty to show off his power, Zhu Di still endured it.

No matter how much he and Zhu Houzhao intrigue with each other, it is also an internal struggle in their lineage, and we must pay attention to the measure, so as not to be taken advantage of by Lao Zhu.

For the sake of the long-term overall situation, we can't completely tear ourselves apart with Zhu Houzhao, but we should still get angry as usual.

The calculation failed, he didn't get any benefits, and he was intimidated by Zhu Houzhao's Zhen Haijun, Zhu Di couldn't swallow this breath.

"Zhu Houzhao, this little bastard, is a complete jerk. I am his ancestor, so what's wrong with him?"

In Empress Xu's bedroom, Zhu Di was furious and confided to Empress Xu his dissatisfaction with Zhu Houzhao.

As long as Zhu Houzhao gave him a little favor and gave him a step down, he would not be so annoyed.

Sending troops to the sea to show off their power, what do you think of the majesty of Emperor Yongle?

"Forget it, it was originally your fault."

Empress Xu handed Zhu Di a cup of tea and said, "After Yuan Zhen went to the Taiwu Dynasty, he insulted Zhu Houzhao wantonly, and labeled Zhu Houzhao as disloyal, filial, and unrighteous."

"Zhu Houzhao is also a strong and domineering master, and he will not give in to soft and hard things. After suffering such humiliation, it would be strange if he didn't make any moves."

Zhu Di took the teacup, drank it down, and said with a cold snort, "I don't think Yuan Zhen was wrong in scolding at all. Even my old ancestor didn't take it seriously. It would be trivial to say that he was disloyal or filial."

"How dare you send troops to the sea to give me eye drops, let's see if he can do it."

"If he continues to be arrogant, will he be able to do it to my old ancestor?"
