Chapter 36 What is Emperor Jianwen's method?
After hearing Chu Ze mention himself suddenly, Zhu Biao sighed helplessly.

While he was sighing, Lao Zhu, who was on the throne, couldn't help shaking his head.

Ruzi can't be taught. If you want to cut down the feudal clan, at least you can take down the strongest one first!

This embarrassment for Zhu Yunwen is of great use!
While Lao Zhu shook his head, he couldn't help but look at Zhu Di who was punished to stand aside.

The eyes can't help but become a little complicated.

"Chu Ze! When Yun Wen slashed the vassal. How did he do it?"

After glancing at Zhu Di, Lao Zhu turned his attention to Chu Ze again.

To put it bluntly, the cutting of the vassal is a confrontation between royal power and imperial power.

According to Chu Ze's words, Zhu Yunqi's method of reducing the feudal clan after he came to power did not seem to be gentle.

After Zhu Biao heard the most important question raised by his father, he also turned his attention to Chu Ze.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang asked more implicitly, anyone with a discerning eye could hear it.

Zhu Yuanzhang's so-called methods are not asking about Zhu Yunqi's ability.

But purely literal.

"Your Majesty, you are asking the point."

"Nowadays when you entrust the enfeoffment, posterity guesses a lot because you don't trust foreign ministers, and then you think too much about the small peasants, thinking that the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. One line inherits the imperial power, and the rest of the children will be crowned kings. Let them not covet the throne."

"As a result, after Zhu Yunqi came to power, looking at the uncles who surrounded him, I always felt that they had bad intentions, and then what?"

When Chu Ze said the most important thing, his voice stopped immediately.

He raised his head to look at Lao Zhu's face and found that his face was still as usual before continuing.

"After Zhu Yunqi came to power, he formulated a plan to cut down the vassal. The first thing to do is King Zhou, your fifth son."

"In the first year of Jianwen, the second son of Zhu Wei, the king of Runan, Zhu Youzhen, reported to the court that his father, Zhu Wei, was plotting wrongdoing. In the fourth year of Jianwen, Zhu Wei was summoned to the capital Nanjing and imprisoned."

"After the king of Zhou was taken down, the other one was King Zhu of Qi. After Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen came to power, he abolished King Qi as a commoner and imprisoned him in the capital for four years."

"The other one is Zhu Gui, the acting king. But this one is just... According to history, he has a short temper and a bad temper. When he has nothing to do, he goes to the streets to bully men and women. In the first year of Jianwen, he was deposed as a commoner by Emperor Jianwen."

"Then Min Wang Zhu Wei is similar, and he was also deposed as a commoner."

After Chu Ze said four words in one breath, he suddenly stopped talking.

He just silently turned his head and looked at Zhu Di, the King of Yan who was standing next to him for punishment.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was on the throne, heard Chu Ze talk about the fate of his four sons.

His breathing couldn't help becoming a little disordered.

Although his face was still expressionless, the violent ups and downs of his chest were enough to show that his heart was not calm at this time.

Four vassals, four deposed.

Besides, according to what Chu Ze said, these vassal kings are all weak vassal kings.

They have all fallen into the consequences of being deposed as common people, or going to jail directly, so what about the powerful vassal kings?
What will happen to them if they cut down the feudal clan?
On this point, with Zhu Yuanzhang's scheming in the city, he would not fail to guess the result, but this result was obviously not the result he wanted to see.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, Lao Zhu is at least quite relieved.

Although Zhu Yunqi's methods may be a little tough and ruthless.

But anyway, he can be regarded as leaving behind the lives of his uncles.

"Your Majesty, after Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, he has been in power for less than four years in total, and it seems that he cut down the five vassals in one year."

"Except for the previous four vassal kings who were notoriously bad, the fifth place he removed is your twelve son, King Zhu Bo of Xiang!"

"This one is different from the previous four."

"In the historical records of later generations, it is emphatically recorded that after you died, Your Majesty, King Xiang was deeply saddened when he learned of his father's death, so he had the idea of ​​abandoning the world!"

"Furthermore, the traces left by King Xiang in the history books are almost all positive. He is eager to learn, filial, and capable of writing and martial arts."

"The most important point is that King Xiang has always had a good relationship with King Yan, the most powerful vassal king at that time, who is the fourth son of our family, Zhu Di."

"However, the King of Xiang was well-received, but the reason he was dismissed was because he was accused of counterfeiting treasures, torture and murder."

"This in itself is quite strange, but what is even more strange is that Emperor Jianwen ordered Zhu Bai to go to the capital for interrogation. After the meeting and discussion, the ministers of the DPRK and China decided to send troops to hide the weapons in the carts full of wood piles. Disguised as a caravan, until they arrived in Jingzhou, the soldiers who were about to arrest Zhu Bo surrounded Zhu Bo's mansion by surprise."

"Since Zhu Bo is really guilty, and if the evidence is solid, why use such means to arrest him?"

"If Zhu Bo is really guilty, he will not be able to stand up to justice. If he does not come to Beijing if he is ordered to enter the capital, he will be disobedient. Wouldn't it be more legitimate to cut down the feudal clan?"

"Zhu Bo was a bit more tempered when he said it. After hearing about Jianwen's actions, he left such a passage."

"I see the former ministers, when they were imprisoned in a dark and violent dynasty, they often committed suicide. As the son of Taizu, when the father passed away, I could neither visit the illness nor attend the funeral. I regret and grieve, and live in this world What fun is there! Will I be humiliated by the slaves again today? How can I survive like this!"

"After speaking, he drank farewell to his family, Zhu Bo then set fire to his palace and concubines, put on the prince's clothes, and rode a white horse with a bow and arrow in his hand, jumped into the fire and committed suicide. The whole palace died after Zhu Bo. "

"What? Old Twelve set himself on fire!"

"Are you talking nonsense! How could it be possible for the old twelve?"

"Chu Ze, are you kidding me?"

After hearing Chu Ze slowly narrate Zhu Bo's death, whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been silent all the time, or Zhu Di, who was silently punishing him by standing aside, he couldn't help but look up at Chu Ze in disbelief.

As for Zhu Yunwen's father, Zhu Biao's expression was extremely ugly at this time.

Although the position of the feudal kings of the four uncles was cut earlier, although it was too much, at least the four of them did have problems, and their lives were spared.

This one doesn't hit the bottom line at least.

As for the death of King Zhu Bo of Xiang... this has obviously reached the bottom line.

However, facing the gazes of the three people with different expressions, Chu Ze spread his hands and tilted his head slightly.

Put on a pair of looks, I am also very helpless, and finally did not forget to add a sentence.

"Emperor Jianwen was very angry when he heard that Zhu Bo set himself on fire, so he gave his posthumous posthumous title of cruel, childless, and extermination of the country!"
