My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 168 Letter from the King of Shu

Hu Wei has been very busy recently, he has transferred most of his staff to Changsha, and the information about King Gu has been continuously sent to him.

Through this information, Hu Wei is almost certain that King Gu is indeed preparing for a rebellion.

But there is still not much progress on whether Zhu Yunqi is in the Gu Palace.

Fortunately, among the information sent today, Hu Wei found a piece of information worthy of attention.

It turned out that in the last few days, a strange monk appeared in Gu Wang's mansion. This monk's name is Jishi, and he seems to be very valued by Gu Wang. The two have conspired many times, and they talked for a long time. palace.

When he saw the name "Jishi", Hu Wei was shocked immediately, because when he was monitoring Foxiang Temple, he cooperated with Jin Yiwei and got some information from Jin Yiwei, knowing that this monk Ji Shi had contacts with Xu Yingxu and Ye Xixian .

Even Jin Yiwei suspected that Ji Shi might be Cheng Ji who fled with Zhu Yunqi back then.

If Ji Shi is really Cheng Ji, then if he appears in the Gu Palace, does it mean that Zhu Yunqi is also in the Gu Palace?Does this indirectly prove that the information I obtained before is not wrong?
With this discovery, Hu Wei was extremely excited, and even wanted to order immediately to arrest Monk Ji Shi.

But then he thought again, Ji Shi was a guest at King Gu's mansion, and now King Gu is planning to rebel, if he arrests someone, he may alarm King Gu, maybe the other party will rebel immediately.

Thinking of such serious consequences, Hu Wei didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, and immediately entered the palace with the information.

After discovering the evidence of King Gu's intention to rebel and Monk Jishi as a big fish, Hu Wei felt that his hard work these days had finally paid off.

Especially when he thought of the bet he made with Zhu Zhanhe, Hu Wei felt even more proud, so what if he was the son of a prince?In the future, Dongchang will also be like Jin Yiwei, obeying his orders!
Thinking of his pride, Hu Wei couldn't help showing an awkward smile on that old-fashioned face. He couldn't help it, his expression rarely fluctuated, and the muscles on his face couldn't remember how to smile.

At the same time, in the Hall of Martial Heroes, Zhu Di was furious and threw the paperweight on the table angrily.

When Zhu Gaoxu was dealing with government affairs, he used the brush very quickly, and when Zhu Di was handling government affairs, he changed the paperweight very frequently.

Liu Mian and Gu Zhan stood below. Among them, Liu Mian was fine, but Gu Zhan saw His Majesty lose his temper for the first time. Even though he knew that the anger was not directed at him, his legs were still trembling with fright.

"Grandfather, please calm down. The attack on Gu Yibin is probably related to the remnants of Jianwen. Let's take a look at what was written in the letter sent by the King of Shu, shall we?"

At this time, Zhu Zhanhe, who was standing aside, stepped forward to persuade him.

It turned out that Liu Mian rushed to Beijing with Gu Zhan, and immediately entered the palace to ask for an interview, and it happened that Zhu Zhanhe was also there.

Knowing that Gu Zhan was attacked by a group of people on the way here, all the guards around him were killed in battle, and he was the only one who escaped, but he almost died in the Yangtze River in the end, which naturally made Zhu Di furious.

Hearing that Zhu Zhanhe mentioned the letter from the King of Shu, Zhu Di finally calmed down a bit, and picked up the letter that Gu Zhan had protected with his life.

After tearing open the envelope, Zhu Di read the entire letter, but the anger on his face disappeared, instead he was calm and terrifying.

Zhu Zhanhe knew that this was Zhu Di's expression when he was extremely angry. The calmer Zhu Di was, the more angry he was, and even murderous intentions.

"You all have a look!"

Zhu Di handed the letter to Zhu Zhanhe, and together with Liu Mian and Gu Zhan, he read the entire letter.

In fact, Zhu Zhanhe had guessed the content of the letter a long time ago. It must be that the King of Shu reported the rebellion to the King of Gu, and there was also the matter that the King of Gu pretended to be Zhu Yunqi, the son of the King of Shu.

King Gu not only wanted to kill his nephew, but even his mother's brother, so it's no wonder that the king of Shu would kill his relatives and report him.

When Gu Zhan saw the content of the letter, he felt mixed emotions. It turned out that this was a letter related to King Gu's rebellion. No wonder those people wanted to hunt him down.

"Your Majesty, so those who chased and killed me are all subordinates of King Gu?"

When Gu Zhan mentioned King Gu, he also gritted his teeth with hatred. All the followers and guards around him were killed in battle. There are a few followers who he grew up with him. Thinking of their death, Gu Zhan can't wait to kill Gu. Wang's body was broken into pieces, even if the other party was his wife's uncle.

"Not necessarily. Among the people on the boat last night, there were monks from Foxiang Temple. These people are all Jianwen remnants, so the person who chased you should be Jianwen remnants. Of course, there may also be people from King Gu. I suspect that they are May have colluded."

Liu Mian spoke out his inference.

"I agree with Commander Liu's conjecture. These Jianwen remnants are hiding in the dark and constantly inciting some dignitaries to rebel. There is Xu Yingxu in the past, and King Gu in the present. Behind them are the shadows of these people's activities!"

Zhu Zhanhe also nodded.

"What a group of lingering fellows, I didn't expect them to have infiltrated the inner court, and even King Gu was instigated to rebel against me!"

Zhu Di bared his teeth and sneered.

Although Zhu Di was angry about King Gu's rebellion, he was not worried at all. After all, it was not the time for him to rebel.

King Gu only had a few thousand guards in his hands, so even if he secretly recruited troops or even built warships, he planned to go down the river from Changsha to Jinling City directly.

But Gu Wang's plan seems to be very good, but in fact it doesn't work at all. Apart from other things, the navy deployed by Zhu Di along the Yangtze River is not something that the warship built by Gu Wang can break through.

"Grandfather, the king of Gu intends to rebel, should he send troops to arrest him and bring him back to Beijing?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked Zhu Di at this time.

As for King Gu's rebellion, Zhu Zhanhe only knew that he let King Shu's son pretend to be Zhu Yunqi, but what happened later?He doesn't know too well, but it must have failed, and there was no big disturbance, otherwise the history books would have written a close-up.

"No need, Old Nineteen is a man with evil intentions but no courage. Don't look at him recruiting troops in Changsha. In fact, he really made him rebel. I'm afraid he will hesitate for ten days and a half months, so I just need to find any reason. Send someone to call him to Beijing, he will definitely not dare not come!"

But Zhu Di sneered again, as an elder brother, he couldn't understand King Gu's character very well.

"Grandpa Huang is wise!"

Zhu Zhanhe also felt that it made sense when he heard the words. As long as Zhu Di made an imperial decree, if King Gu came, he would be arrested and questioned directly. If the other party did not come, the ending would not be so good.

At this moment, Hu Wei finally came to the gate of the Hall of Martial Heroes. He tidied up his clothes outside the hall, put away the smile on his face, and then stepped into the hall.
