Ming Dynasty: Evolution from snake to national guardian beast

Chapter 133 The deceitful maniac sharpens his knife at night, and the emperor's star wanders in confusion.

What's more, Zhu Di has an unpredictable Mr. Bai beside him, who can definitely help him ascend to the throne.

Zhu Di was extremely excited. Since his father would not give him the throne, he would take it himself.

While the two were talking, a sergeant suddenly came outside the tent to report that there was someone in the city asking to see him.

Zhu Di and Bai Chu looked at each other, smiled, and said:

"This person must come to peace talks."

Bai Chu nodded in agreement and said:

"It's just a delaying tactic. How could Zhu Yunwen be willing to negotiate peace?"

Zhu Di smiled slightly, did not answer, and just let people in.

Soon, a graceful middle-aged beautiful woman slowly walked into the tent.

"Fourth brother, long time no see!"

The person who came was none other than Zhu Di's cousin, Princess Qingcheng.

Zhu Di sat high on the throne, with a faint smile on his face, and said softly:

"Second sister, why are you here?"

"Don't you know that on the battlefield, swordsmen have no eyesight? If you hurt the second sister, it will be a sin."

Princess Qingcheng's expression changed, and then she forced a smile and said:

"I came here just to stop the fight."

"Fourth brother, no matter what, Yunwen is still a child. As an elder, you shouldn't bully him like this. Zhu Di smiled and asked:

"Am I bullying him?"

"Second sister, why don't you ask King Zhou, King Dai, and King Min, who is persecuting whom?"

"Second sister, why don't you think about your twelfth brother? Who is humiliating whom?"

"The adulterers of the DPRK, the emperor was blinded by the adulterer, and did not discern right and wrong.

Seeing Zhu Di's excitement, Princess Qingcheng knew that she had just said the wrong thing, so she could only say what Zhu Yunwen wanted for peace talks.

Zhu Xi heard the words, there was no accident on his face, but Shen Sheng said:

"Above the court, Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru, Qitai and others were in a conspiracy."

"If I retreat today, these three people will cause trouble to the imperial court again. My purpose of this peace is to eradicate these three people."

"After I enter the court and kill these three people, I will naturally retreat."

"Second sister, if nothing happens, please leave."

Seeing this, Princess Qingcheng could only sigh and said:

"Now that you've made up your mind, I won't say any more."

"It's just that there are twelve battalions of the emperor's personal guards in the city, and Xu Huizu is stationed at Chaoyang Gate. This man is loyal, so you'd better take care of yourself."

After saying that, Princess Qingcheng turned around and left without saying anything about taking care of herself. She seemed very angry.

But after Princess Qingcheng left, Zhu Di showed a smile and murmured:

"Xu Huizu? This person is really haunted."

Princess Qingcheng seemed to be warning Zhu Di, but in fact she was informing Zhu Di.

This made Zhu Di even more sure that there was no other army in the capital except Zhu Yunzhen's 12th Battalion of Guards.

The combat prowess of these personal guards was indeed good before, but with the long period of peace, these people have long been eroded by comfort.

In addition, various martial arts disciples were placed in the 12th Battalion of Guards, which greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of these emperor's guards.

In addition, Xu Huizu may need to be more careful.

As the eldest son of Xu Da, this man was his brother-in-law, and he was quite capable. When he was young, he followed Xu Da in many battles.

It can be regarded as a big scene, and Xu Huizu is indeed loyal to Zhu Yunwen, which makes Zhu Di very angry.

After Bai Chu saw Princess Qingcheng leaving, he suggested to Yikang:

"Your Majesty, since Xu Huizu is stationed at Chaoyang Gate, we might as well move to Jinchuan Gate. That may be our passage into the capital."

Zhu Di shook his head and said:

"If we really enter Yingtian City from Jinchuan Gate, then we should station ourselves at Chaoyang Gate." "Only here can we attract the attention of the city to this place, which will make it easier for internal response operations at Jinchuan Gate."

Bai Chu nodded and no longer insisted.

One day passed in a blink of an eye, and while Zhu Di and Bai Chu were waiting anxiously, the news of the internal response finally reached Zhu Di's camp from the city.

"You have heard that King Yan has already reached Yingtian City!"

"Not only did I hear about it, I also saw it, right over at Chaoyang Gate."

"The flags are all over the sky, covering the sky and the sun, the number of people is endless, and the momentum is majestic. I'm afraid the capital will not be able to defend it."

"Shhhh, don't talk nonsense. If the Yingtian Mansion officials hear it, they will definitely put you in jail and interrogate you severely."

"Let me tell you secretly, the 700,000-strong army in the north has now been defeated. What a miserable defeat!"

"You're talking nonsense. That's an army of 700,000 people. Who can defeat them?"

"Then tell me, how did King Yan appear here? Are they unable to fly?"

As Zhu Di arrived outside Yingtian City, rumors in the city suddenly spread all over the place, and there was everything.

Most of the people are not optimistic about Zhu Yunwen. They all think that Zhu Yunwen may be finished this time.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Zhu Di is the vassal king in the north. He has guarded the northern border for nearly twenty years, made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and has no bad deeds.

It can be said that he has a great reputation. In the hearts of the people of the Ming Dynasty, he is like a god of war.

But such a vassal king was forced to rebel by Zhu Yunwen, and the people were very sympathetic to Zhu Di's experience.

The death of not only Zhu Di but also other vassal kings, especially King Xiang, had a great impact on the people.

No matter what they say, he is still Zhu Yunwen's uncle. Now that Zhu Yunwen has just ascended the throne, forcing his uncle like this can only make the people think that Zhu Yunwen has no filial piety and is unfaithful.

Cool.

Since ancient times, China has governed the world with filial piety.

Filial piety is deeply rooted in people's hearts. If the people think that you are not filial, then in the hearts of the people, they will think that you are not a good person and you cannot do any good things.

Even if Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was a talented and strategist, wouldn't he still be sprayed to pieces after his death?

Once this person has flaws in his filial piety, he is destined to have no good reputation.

As an emperor, Zhu Yunwen, when most people think that Zhu Yunwen may be doomed, then he is really doomed. This is what the people want.

After hearing that Zhu Di planned to enter the court and kill his three think tanks, Zhu Yunwen was furious.

He knew that Zhu Di was a bastard who was determined to fight him to the death.

Zhu Yunwen no longer sent for peace talks, but directly began to deploy defenses in the city.

In addition, in accordance with Huang Zicheng's request, he also called on the military generals and relatives in the city to take the initiative to lead his servants to the city to guard the city gate.

This imperial edict really had a good effect. The originally silent generals group wrote letters one after another requesting to lead their servants to go to the city to defend Yan Ni.

To his surprise, King Gu, as the vassal king, actually expressed his willingness to lead five hundred servants to the city wall to guard Yingtian.

Zhu Yunwen was elated. In his opinion, what King Gu did was a sign of Zhu Di's unpopularity.

As the saying goes, he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. After all, he, Zhu Yunwen, is still the one who wins the hearts of the people.

Roughly, these people are at least 50,000, which can break Zhu Yunzheng.
