Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 282

At this time, Guan Tong hurriedly stopped Naier Buhua and the others, and told them that outside was the army of Daming Yan Wang Zhu Di, and that Yan Wang Zhu Di sincerely recruited them.

Moreover, in Zhu Di's army, there is also a general from the Northern Yuan Dynasty, who will not settle accounts after the fall.

The most important thing is that King Yan has very powerful firearms. Even if they escape this time, they will be captured next time.

At this time, another close aide reported that the entire Yidu was surrounded by the Great Ming Army.

Naier Buhua and Bite, Alu Timur and other Northern Yuan ministers changed their faces slightly, after thinking for a while, they asked Naer Buhua to follow Guantong to Zhu Di's camp to surrender.

Sure enough, Zhu Di entertained Naier Buhua with wine, so Naier Buhua was very moved, and surrendered to the King of Yan with the ministers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, such as Bite and Alu Timur, as well as their respective tribes, horses, camels, cattle and sheep. Zhu Di.

This time, Zhu Di and other Northern Expeditionary Army won a complete victory.

On the other side, the West Route army led by King Jin Zhu Yan circled the vast desert, but did not find any Northern Yuan bandit army.

At the same time, he received an order from Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, Prince Zhu Biao to inspect Taiyuan, and King Jin Zhu Biao had to return to his teacher to greet him in a hurry.

In this battle, King Zhu of Jin did not gain anything.

……

Zhu Di, King of Yan, defeated the Northern Yuan army, captured the Northern Yuan army such as the Prime Minister of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Taiwei Naier Buhua, Zhiyuan Alu Timur, and countless Beiyuan tribes and horses, camels, cattle and sheep. Arrived in the capital.

In Fengtian Hall, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty was very happy when he saw the good news.

"The one who clears the desert is the King of Yan!"

A word from Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang directly made Yan King Zhu Di famous.

At the same time, Lao Zhu also very readily rewarded Yan Wang Zhu Di with 200 million Guanbao notes.

Hearing this, Jin Wang Zhu Yan was directly in Jin Wang's mansion, furious.

……

mid-April.

King Zhu Di of Yan led the army, and the team returned to Beiping Mansion.

The officials from top to bottom of Beiping Mansion hurried forward to greet him.

The next day.

Zhu Di, king of Yan, summoned the chief historian Zhu Fu and Guo An.

"Zhu Qing, Guo Qing, what major event has happened in the Beiping Mansion during the time we have been away? Why did you look at those officials yesterday, all of them were worried?
Even Zhao Yong, Marquis of Nanxiong, was rushed back to Beijing by his father! "

Hearing this, Zhu Fu and Guo An looked at each other, and Zhu Fu replied: "His Royal Highness, there is no major event in Beiping Mansion, but a major event happened in the court!"

"Ok?"

Zhu Di was taken aback, and asked, "What happened in the court?"

Zhu Fu replied: "Your Majesty, at the beginning of April, there was Lu Zhongheng, the Marquis of Ji'an, whose slave Feng Tiemu surrendered himself. Before he reported on Lu Zhongheng, Tang Shengzong, Fei Ju, and Zhao Yong, he was suspected of colluding with Hu Weiyong."

"Marquis Ji An?"

Zhu Di frowned. Zhu Di still had a good impression of Lu Zhongheng and Tang Shengzong, the Huaixi military generals who first raised troops for Zhu Yuanzhang.

"In the 13th year of Hongwu, after the Hu Weiyong case happened, the court questioned Lu Zhongheng, the Marquis of Ji'an, and his father had already pardoned him. Why is he being accused now?

Moreover, Tang Shengzong, Fei Ju, Zhao Yong and others were also involved? "

Zhu Fu couldn't help but look embarrassed.

Zhu Di said again: "So, many generals have been arrested?"

"Your Highness is wise!"

Zhu Fu imitated Guo An's usual way of dealing with Zhu Di.

Zhu Di said bitterly, "Those civil officials frame this and that all day long, and sooner or later they will be cut to pieces by the emperor!"

As he said that, Zhu Di asked again: "Aside from Marquis Ji'an and the others, are there other people involved?"

Zhu Fu replied: "His Royal Highness, someone has found out about Li Cunyi, Duke Han's younger brother, and his son Li You."

Zhu Di couldn't help being furious again, "What are they trying to do? The Duke of Han is the number one hero of my Ming Dynasty. Although he is usually good at jealousy of others, is it possible that the Duke of Han will follow Hu Weiyong to rebel?"

Zhu Fu and Guo An were silent, they didn't dare to say a word about this kind of thing.

Zhu Di asked again: "Who else is implicated?"

Zhu Fu couldn't help but look embarrassed.

Guo An sighed softly and said, "Go back to Your Highness, and there is King Tan."

"Xiaoba?"

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but sneered, "Xiao Ba's temperament, can he still be involved? In this matter, Xiao Ba doesn't need to defend himself. Father will believe that Xiao Ba is definitely innocent."

"What Your Highness said is absolutely true!"

Guo An nodded slightly, "Your Highness, it is Princess Tan's brother Yu Hu who is involved."

Zhu Di's face brightened, and then he said bitterly: "Father is so kind to the family, if Yu Hu dares to be so restless, he should be cut!"

Guo An nodded and said, "Yu Hu has been killed by His Majesty!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, and suddenly turned his head to look at Guo An with a puzzled expression.

"Since Yu Hu has been killed, why did Guo Qing say that the eighth brother was implicated?"

Guo An sighed slowly, "Your Highness, because Yu Hu was punished, His Highness Tan Wang was terrified.

His Majesty sent envoys to Tan Wang's mansion to comfort him, and wanted to call Tan Wang to the capital.

As a result, Tan Wang was so frightened that he set himself on fire in the Tan Palace with his concubine and died! "

Zhu Di couldn't believe it, "What...it's impossible, Xiao Ba has been very timid since he was a child, how could he set himself on fire?

Moreover, although my father often punished and whipped me and other brothers, at most he would beat me and others to the point of lying on the bed, and he would never beat me and other brothers to death... Xiao Ba is so confused! "

As he said that, Zhu Di suddenly remembered something, his eyes turned red.

"No, there must be traitors secretly assassinating this king and other brothers! ... This king is going to the capital to meet his father. It's all right, Xiaoba is so weak, how could he set himself on fire?"

As he said that, Zhu Di walked out with a face full of anger.

Seeing this, Zhu Fu and Guo An were shocked immediately, and hurriedly chased after him, stopping around Zhu Di.

"Your Highness, Your Highness calm down!"

"Your Highness, calm down!"

Zhu Di stared at Zhu Fu and Guo An with reddened eyes, "There are traitors harming my brothers, how can I calm down?"

"Your Highness, the vassal king is not allowed to enter Beijing without His Majesty's order."

"Your Highness, there is His Majesty in the capital, and the Crown Prince. If there is a traitor who murders King Tan, the Crown Prince and His Majesty will never forgive him.

But, it's been so long..."

"Also, during this period of time, so many nobles have been implicated in the Hu thief case, His Majesty is in a bad mood. If His Highness enters Beijing so rashly, His Majesty may be even more furious..."

Zhu Di's face softened, and he asked in a cold voice, "How are the envoys sent by the father to Prince Tan's mansion?"

Guo An breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Returning to Your Highness, there is no news from those envoys. I suspect that His Majesty must have the same suspicion as His Highness, and let Jin Yiwei torture and interrogate those envoys!"

"Hmph, none of those thieves is innocent!"

Zhu Di said bitterly, but he had no idea of ​​going to the capital.

As for those messengers who were innocent, they just happened to encounter this unfortunate incident.Or because someone frightened the Tan king, or stimulated and hinted at the Tan king.

No matter what, now Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and others can't wait to cut him up, and no one will intercede with him.

Or, Tan Wang Zhu Zi really did something shameful, and then set himself on fire in Tan Wang Palace.

Otherwise, until now, it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang still has not given the posthumous title of Tan Wang Zhu Zi!
These things, Guo An, Zhu Fu and others, and even the officials of the entire Ming Dynasty have guessed, but no one dared to speak nonsense.

Otherwise, not only would Zhu Yuanzhang not be able to spare them, but even princes and feudal princes such as Zhu Biao, Zhu Bian, and Zhu Di would not let them go.

In this way, more than ten days passed.

The imperial court found out the reason for Tan Wang's self-immolation. Tan Wang Zhu Zi was indeed frightened and did not dare to enter the capital to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, so he set himself on fire in Tan Wang Palace.

Hearing this news, Zhu Di was puzzled and even a little angry.

However, no action was taken.

This thing is a little too weird.

Moreover, the situation in the imperial court has become more and more strange these days.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly adjusted the positions of several ministers, and transferred Yang Jing from the Minister of the Ministry of Justice to the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. In addition, he transferred Zhao Mian from the Minister of the Ministry of Justice to the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Even Shen Mo, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Qin Kui, Minister of Industry, also switched.

You know, with the abolition of the prime minister, the position of the six ministers has become more and more important.

But now, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty directly made such a big move against the six ministers.

Even Zhu Di, who didn't care much about government affairs, felt something was wrong.

Subsequently.

A few days later.

Zhan Hui, the censor of Zuodu, played the impeachment of 570 and eight people including Qiu De, a military officer, for the crime of concealing imperial edicts and failing to report, hereditary officials and unknown military exploits!

A military officer's military exploits are forged, which is the greatest lethal force for a military officer!

First, a large number of military generals such as Lu Zhongheng were arrested, and now more than 500 generals are to be arrested?
The infighting got a little serious.

"Warriors who wrote less, or entrusted others to write it, it is inevitable that there will be misinterpretations, don't ask, those who hide the edict will pursue it, and those who have unknown military achievements will be corrected."

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty made a rare defense for these generals in the court, not wanting to kill these brothers who were loyal to him and followed him to fight.

However, Zhan Hui, the censor of Zuodu, was also a young man, and he was reserved for Zhu Biao's team.

So, the next day, he proposed in the court hall that Liehou should return to his hometown.

Many old princes have fought and killed for Daming for so many years, and it is time to return to their hometowns to enjoy their happiness.

Immediately, to the six Dukes of Wei, Xu Huizu, Founding Duke Chang Sheng, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong, Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Shen Guogong Deng Zhen, and Ying Guogong Fu Youde, each gave 300 taels of gold, 4000 taels of silver, [-] taels of banknotes, Wen Qi fifty horses.

In addition, ten Marquis Wu, including Xie Cheng, Hou Xiong, Zhao Yong, Marquis of Fuxiong, Li Xin, Marquis of Chongshan, Cao Xing, Marquis of Huaiyuan, Zhang Long, Marquis of Fengxiang, Wang Bi, Marquis of Dingyuan, Qiuzheng, Marquis of Anqing, Guo Ying, Marquis of Wujia, Guo Zixing, Marquis of Gongchang, Zhang Yi, Marquis of Heqing, etc. Each of them gave 200 taels of gold, 3000 taels of silver, three thousand ingots of banknotes, and forty pieces of silk.

This time, Lao Zhu was out of blood, without any search.

Even, each prince was assigned a hundred households of the Iron Book Army to protect the safety of these princes when they returned home.

Hearing this news, Guo An, Zhu Fu and others were all shocked.

As for Zhu Di, his eyes were full of coldness, "What a Zuodu censor Zhan Hui, what a group of civil servants!"

This is obviously Lao Zhu backing down.

Wei Guogong Xu Huizu, Founding Duke Chang Sheng, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong, and Shen Guogong Deng Zhen are all second-generation Dukes. A group of Dukes who are in their prime, how can they say they are old?

Faced with Lao Zhu's response, Zhan Hui, the censor of Zuodu, and other civil officials were also taken aback.

However, the emperor's order cannot be violated.

Then, two days later, Zhang Tinglan, Minister of the Dali Temple, was transferred to be the general political envoy, and Lao Zhu fought back.

The next day.

Zhan Hui and other supervisory censors once again rushed forward, strongly demanding that the grand master Li Shanchang, as well as Li Shanchang's younger brother Li Cunyi and nephew Li You's crimes be dealt with.

So, Lao Zhu nodded in agreement.
