My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 177
"Old Nineteen, you are so ambitious!"

In the Hall of Martial Heroes, Zhu Di looked at Zhu Sui in the hall with a complicated expression.

Zhu Di still attaches great importance to Zhu Suo's younger brother, especially when the other party opened the city gate with Li Jinglong to welcome him into the city at the last moment of Jingnan.

But he didn't expect that it was this younger brother who wanted to rebel against himself, and even wanted to bring the King of Shu into trouble.

Facing Zhu Di's questioning, Zhu Wei looked very bachelor, and he smiled and said: "Fourth brother, we two brothers are mutual, you made a bad start to our brothers back then, after all, we are all emperor Taizu Son, you can, why can't we?"

"You still don't know how to repent?"

Zhu Di slapped the table angrily and said angrily.

"So what if it's repentance, I figured it out a long time ago on the way, anyway, you will definitely not kill me, otherwise, what face would you have to meet our father in the future?"

Zhu Suo said again without any fear, his expression was a little arrogant.

"boom!"

As soon as Zhu Xi's words fell, a golden light flew past his cheek and hit the pillar behind him fiercely. It was the golden paperweight on Zhu Di's desk.

"You bastard, don't think that I dare not kill you, believe it or not, I will push you out and behead you right now!"

Zhu Di pointed at Zhu Bian and cursed angrily.

But Zhu Su turned his face away with a sneer, as if he didn't bother arguing with Zhu Di.

In fact, Zhu Wei guessed right. Zhu Di did not dare to kill him. At the beginning, Zhu Yunwen cut down the vassal, forcing Zhu Bai, the king of Hunan, to burn himself to death, and demoted the kings of Zhou, Qi, Dai and others to common people. This also became Zhu Di. The reason for accusing Zhu Yunqi when raising troops.

So after Zhu Di won the world, although he also promoted the reduction of vassals, he still treated the vassal kings very generously. Even if King Gu rebelled, if Zhu Di killed him because of this, wouldn't he slap himself in the face and pull himself to the throne? On the same level as Zhu Yunqi?

Facing such a determined Zhu Xi, Zhu Di really had no other good solution except to scold him.

In the end, he could only announce viciously that he would deprive Zhu Sui of his title, demote him to a commoner, and temporarily imprison him in Xihua Gate.

For this result, Zhu Wei had already thought about it. After all, he committed the felony of treason. Zhu Di and Zhu Gaosui were demoted to common people, let alone him.

When the guards took Zhu Wei down, Zhu Gaochi stepped forward to persuade him: "Father, please calm down. King Gu committed such a serious crime, but he is still obsessed with his obsession. Father has already done his utmost benevolence, and there is no need to get angry because of him!"

"What Uncle said is very true. King Gu's misbehavior in Changsha Mansion these years has already caused anger and resentment, and Grandpa Huang has complied with the people's will by arresting him and bringing him to justice!"

Zhu Zhanhe also persuaded at this time.

Hearing the persuasion from his sons and grandchildren, Zhu Di finally felt a little relieved, and then asked Zhu Zhanhe, "How are the interrogations by Zhu Wei's henchmen?"

"It's being interrogated, and most of them have already confessed, which involves the illegal deeds committed by King Gu, one by one, each one is shocking!"

Zhu Zhanhe reported immediately.

Over the years, Zhu Wei has accumulated financial resources for rebellion, tried his best to squeeze the people of Changsha, even embezzled the court's tax revenue, and forced the local officials to death. It's not that no one reported these things before, but Zhu Di didn't pursue them.

"After the interrogation is clear, everyone will be dealt with severely!"

Zhu Di snorted coldly and said, he couldn't kill Zhu Suo, but he could kill Zhu Sui's henchmen, but judging from the crimes committed by these people, they deserved to die.

"Grandfather, Zhang Xing, the governor of the Gu Palace, is deeply aware of righteousness, and has been collecting evidence of Gu Wang's rebellion. If he hadn't notified Hu Wei in time this time, I'm afraid there will be a big mess in Changsha!"

At this time, Zhu Zhanhe reported again that he had dealt with King Gu and his henchmen, and the next step would be to reward him for his merits, and Zhang Xing's contribution should not be denied.

However, when Zhu Di heard this, he snorted coldly and said: "As the governor, Zhang Xing didn't want to prevent King Gu from rebelling, but instead allowed him to act mischievously. I will not punish him."

Zhu Di pondered for a while when he said this, and immediately announced: "It happens that there is a vacancy at Nanyang Guard, so let him go to Nanyang Guard as a commander!"

Nanyang is located in the heart of Ming Dynasty, and it is basically impossible to encounter any wars. Zhu Di asked Zhang Xing to serve in Nanyang Wei, but he actually gave up on him. You must know that Zhang Xing is only in his early forties this year, and he is in his prime. If he goes to Nanyang Guard, which means that he can only be a guard commander for the rest of his life.

Regarding Zhu Di's decision, Zhu Gaochi nodded slightly. Although Zhang Xing's future is at an end, he can at least retain the position of a guard commander. As long as there are no mistakes, he can keep his wealth forever. .

Zhu Zhanhe sighed secretly when he heard the words, he knew Zhang Xing before, he knew that Zhang Xing used to assist King Gu in guarding the Xuan Mansion, he was quite famous in the frontier, he was as famous as Zhang Yu under Zhu Di at a young age, known as "" Two sheets".

It's a pity that Zhang Xing didn't meet the Ming Lord, followed Gu Wang from north to south, spent half his life without making any great achievements, and finally ended up like this.

But it's a pity, it's a pity, Zhu Zhanhe didn't know each other before, and he couldn't be of much help, so he didn't say much.

"Zhan He, you and Hu Wei did a good job this time, and Jin Yiwei also contributed a lot, I will reward you for your merits in the future!"

Zhu Di did not forget the contribution of Zhu Zhanhe and the others, so he spoke again immediately.

"The grandson thanked Grandpa Huang on behalf of Hu Wei and Liu Mian!"

Zhu Zhanhe saluted again.

After Hu Wei came back, he and Liu Mian interrogated the henchmen of King Gu, especially the monk Jishi, so neither of them came. After all, King Gu is from the royal family, and the more they two outsiders know about the royal family , the more unfavorable they are.

"By the way, grandpa, do you want to meet Chongyang County King?"

Zhu Zhanhe suddenly thought of Zhu Yuexiu, so he asked Zhu Di again.

"Chongyang County King? How did you bring him back?"

Zhu Di's reaction was the same as Zhu Zhanhe's before, he never expected that Zhu Yuexiu would also be brought back to the capital.

"Grandpa Emperor, Chongyang County King was forced by King Gu to pretend to be Emperor Jianwen, and has been under house arrest in the Palace of King Gu. He can be regarded as a victim of this case. In addition, he is a royal family, so Grandpa Emperor should see him See him."

Zhu Zhanhe deliberately found a reason.

He didn't directly say that Hu Yan's suspicion of Zhu Yuexiu was Zhu Wenkui's business, but he wanted Zhu Di to meet him first, as long as he saw Zhu Yuexiu's appearance that resembled Zhu Yunqi, Zhu Zhanhe probably didn't need to mention it, Zhu Di himself would have doubts .
