Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

Chapter 429 Director Zhu Di’s Guanzhong murder case that shocked the world!

Daming, grassland Zhangbeicheng.

At the same time, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Royal study room.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and fell into silence after driving Chang Mao and others out.

Everyone is wondering what chain reaction Zhu Di will have if he controls the military conscription power in the north.

No one doubted that Zhu Di really wanted to rebel.

"Come and tell me..."

Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden voice broke the silence in the imperial study, and everyone looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

"If the imperial court releases this news, will it scare the gentry and scholars? Or will it irritate these people even more?"

Everyone was silent.

Don’t dare to analyze or express your opinions at will.

This time Zhu Biao was seriously injured and fell into coma, which really stimulated the entire Ming Dynasty elite.

Gentlemen, scholars, merchants...

Many people are too afraid that King Yan will inherit the Ming Dynasty.

As a result, none of these groups who can influence the direction of the Ming Dynasty are restless and blind.

The scholars began to throw pieces of paper desperately.

Faced with such a situation.

His Majesty is probably very angry in his heart.

After all, in all the years since the Ming Dynasty was founded, there has never been a situation where the entire elite has been so united to shake the Ming Dynasty.

But in the current situation, His Majesty has to endure it even if he wants to kill people. Regardless of settling the scores later, at least he cannot add fuel to the fire in this situation where the entire elite is cooperating.

"Tang He, tell me!" Seeing that Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang, Tang He and the others were all silent, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little annoyed and directly named them.

Tang He smiled bitterly.

If he thought that he would be 'bullied' by Emperor Zhu for so many years if he lived in the same village as Emperor Zhu and became sworn brothers, he would never become sworn brothers with Emperor Zhu!

But at this time, the emperor named him directly.

In fact, it is also a matter of trust in him.

After pondering for a while, he said: "I suggest that the news about Lao Si leading the troops south for exercises should be announced. This move will indeed stimulate some people who are hostile to Lao Si and make them feel that Lao Si has seized military power and may indeed force him to rebel against Lao Si. Fourth, the shock is definitely not small. I just arrived in Jinling City. Although I don’t know much about the situation in Jinling City, we encountered the situation of throwing pieces of paper at the street restaurant. This kind of situation has happened. It’s conceivable. You know, right now, our entire upper-class group in the Ming Dynasty is so ready to make a move..."

At this time, this group of people must be given a heads-up!

It is very necessary to let these people calm down even for a short time.

Otherwise, given the current situation, this group of people is very likely to react more radically.

For example, the secret arrow was aimed at Miaoyun girl and her son.

If something like this really happens, there is really no room for redemption.

Or, His Majesty and Lao Si join forces to bloodbath the entire Ming Dynasty elite.

Or, Your Majesty, for the sake of the overall situation, let the fourth child suffer!

If this is the case, I am afraid that the fourth child will be completely disappointed in Daming!

"If you want me to choose between the elites of the Ming Dynasty and the fourth child, I suggest that your majesty choose the fourth child!"

Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen looked up instantly.

Look at Tanghe.

None of them expected that Tang He would support the bloodbath of the Ming elite and calm the anger of King Yan.

Once such a bloodbath begins.

I'm afraid there are hundreds of thousands of families and millions of people.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that Zhongshan Hou Tanghe's suggestion is also okay.

Now, the group of people who are hostile to King Yan are actually mainly against King Yan's ideas.

They were worried that after King Yan inherited the Ming Dynasty, he would further harm their interests.

To put it bluntly, this group of so-called elites has become an obstacle to the development and progress of Ming Dynasty.

In the past, His Majesty could tolerate this group of people grumbling and secretly resisting the new policies of the imperial court.

This is because the New Deal can barely be implemented despite obstacles.

Compromise a little bit.

It can ensure the stability of the overall situation.

Bloody killings are not conducive to the environment needed for the implementation of the New Deal.

Once a choice has to be made between King Yan and this group of people.

If this group of people is elected, it will be a victory for this group of people. These people will definitely be inspired and influence the new policy being implemented by the court.

The court needs reform.

It is necessary to stabilize the results of innovation.

Those who oppose the reform will be gradually marginalized from the court even if they are not killed.

In fact, His Majesty has begun to do these things in an orderly manner in recent years.

Fang Xiaoru and a large number of county-level officials who took the lead in promoting rural village communities were already on the list of His Majesty for promotion.

The Ministry of Officials has already made plans to gradually transfer these people back to the DPRK to form a revolutionary force in the DPRK.

However, Fang Xiaoru and the others have just completed the implementation of rural village communities in the counties under their respective jurisdictions.

The policy still needs to be consolidated.

This group of New Dealers' 'guardian county magistrates' has prevented them from being promoted in a hurry for the time being.

But that's just a matter of the next few years.

This group of people will inevitably enter the center of the court in large numbers and serve as the backbone!

"Furthermore, I think that since the fourth child has done this, he must have his own ideas. His Majesty must know his abilities better than I do. In the current situation, it is better to let go and cooperate with him."

In fact, this is the reason why he supports not banning news.

"Your Majesty, I also support the opinion of Marquis Zhongshan." Li Shanchang clasped his fists to express his support for Tang He.

Hu Weiyong was released by King Yan.

He must be tasked with helping to divide and suppress the hostile factions.

He wanted to see if Zhu Laosi could solve such a complicated situation.

If even this kind of situation exists, Zhu Laosi can handle it.

It's enough to prove this person's future.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen pursed his lips and said very cautiously: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that the news cannot be controlled. Instead of covering it up and being speculated or spread, the court should announce the news about King Yan's upcoming drill as soon as possible. We want to tell the people Explain that this drill is, firstly, to familiarize the court with some details of nomadic warfare and to summarize experience for future military operations. Secondly, although the battle was won this time, there are still powerful elites of the grassland tribes who have escaped. The prince wants to be there The grassland is recuperating. If the grassland cannot be controlled at this time, the escaped grassland elites will most likely gather large and small tribes to harass our northern expedition army, causing us to fall into endless trouble. King Yan used himself to establish a strong foundation in the grassland. The prestige he aroused, in the name of training, controlled the grassland tribes in the army, effectively curbed the actions of the elites who escaped from the grassland, and provided a safer and peaceful environment for the prince's treatment..."

Tang He frowned slightly.

Suddenly he realized that Zhu Di was using the name of training to control the grassland tribes.

It does have the purpose of creating conditions for the prince’s treatment!

The fourth child didn't want to say.

If Liu Bowen hadn't pointed it out, they might not have realized it.

Li Shanchang took a deep look at Liu Bowen.

This guy Liu Ji is better than him!

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying looked at each other, and then Zhu Yuanzhang said cheerfully: "Okay, let's do it as you want, Bowen, as the left prime minister, you will preside over this matter, and also release news to the outside world that the imperial court is preparing to reform the prime minister system and increase the number of ministers." Mutually……"

Increased phase? !

Several people looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in surprise.

The proud smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's lips flashed away, "This is what the Fourth Brother suggested to me. In the future, Zhongshu Province will have left and right prime ministers. Under the left and right prime ministers, all six ministers will join the cabinet and serve as prime ministers..."

He has been thinking about this for a long time.

Be prepared to accept the fourth child's advice.

Instead of abolishing the prime minister, use the method of increasing the prime minister to weaken the weight of the prime minister's power in the hands of a single person. ♙

Lao Si has a good saying.

He was a man with muddy legs, and it was not easy for him to survive a narrow escape. He endured countless hardships and committed countless crimes before he could create the Ming Dynasty. He cherished it.

He wished he had twenty-four hours in a day.

They all handle government affairs and manage the Ming Dynasty well.

But what about the successor?

The successor has never suffered from him and does not know how precious this inheritance is.

How can they be so diligent?

Can they have the abilities like him, Lao Si, and Biao'er?

Insufficient ability and insufficient diligence.

At best, this power can only be weakened to the maximum extent, but cannot be abolished.

Eight prime ministers and a group of eight people assist the emperor in handling major affairs of the country, the country, and the country, and the possibility of making mistakes is even smaller.

Let this news out now...

"Tell the outside world that the suggestion of increasing the number of prime ministers was also given to us by the fourth child. Otherwise, we would be preparing to abolish the system of prime ministers!"

Liu Bowen and others were surprised.

Everyone understood Zhu Yuanzhang's purpose in suddenly releasing this news.

Attract some people's attention.

Some ministers in the court who were qualified to serve as prime ministers, as well as those who were currently serving as chief officials of the six ministries, did not dare to make too much trouble.

What if His Majesty holds a grudge?

"I obey the decree!"

After Liu Bowen and others said goodbye and left.

Zhu Yuanzhang got up and came to the window.

Snapped!

He patted the window edge lightly and sighed silently. Hearing the footsteps behind him, he knew it was Ma Xiuying and said to himself: "We originally wanted Biao'er to propose and announce the matter of increasing the prime ministership..."

In this way, Biaoer can further win over people's hearts.

But the situation has developed to this point...

"We are so disappointed with Biao'er's performance in leading the troops this time. He wants to pursue personal honor too much. He is the prince and the emperor, and the fourth son is his younger brother. Even if the fourth son assists him in winning this battle, That’s because he knows people well and is good at using them!”

Isn’t Zhu Yuanzhang good at leading troops to fight?

Not as good as Tang He, Xu Da, and Chang Yuchun?

No!

He is confident that if these old brothers stand on his opposite side and compete with him for the world, he will definitely be able to defeat them.

He never refused these old brothers to assist him because of his personal honor.

On the contrary, as long as he has the ability, he will put extra emphasis on it!

Therefore, his ability to lead troops seems to have never been as famous as Tang He and others.

But he was a helpless man with weak legs, but he conquered the Ming Dynasty!

The environment where Biaoer grew up was great.

If you were like him, begging and being chased by dogs... After going through what he went through, how could you take personal honor so seriously?

Ma Xiuying said nothing from beginning to end.

Listening silently and patiently to Zhu Yuanzhang's narration can relieve the depression and discomfort in your heart.

Liu Bowen quickly informed all officials of what had been agreed upon in the Imperial Study Room.

"Drill? This is clearly a seizure of military power!"

"Yes, Zhu Silang is going to rebel, but it's just under the guise of a drill!"

"The increase in prime ministers means that there will be eight prime ministers in the future?"

"Can all the current six ministers be ranked in the phase?"

It was as Zhu Yuanzhang expected.

Because of the news of the additional phase in the central government, the focus of discussion began to diverge.

Unlike officials.

When the news spread out of the palace, the people were extremely excited.

"We won the battle! King Yan rescued the Crown Prince and won the battle!"

"Great, if we win this time, in the next ten years or so, the danger from the northern border of the imperial court will be very small, and there will be no need for large-scale corvee recruitment!"

"Hmph! Foolish people! King Yan has seized military power and is approaching the Great Wall, preparing to invade! Soon, there will be wars everywhere in our Ming Dynasty!"

"You scholars know this is nonsense! The imperial court clearly stated that King Yan was conducting a drill to familiarize the imperial court with nomadic warfare and to know oneself and the enemy. At the same time, it also created a stable environment for the treatment of the prince."

Some people are still intensifying conflicts.

But the momentum is as obvious as Xu Miaoyun appearing in Yanfan military uniform.

Go into low ebb.

The unwilling people gritted their teeth and began to plot another wave of noise.

at the same time.

Chang Mao noticed that the momentum against Zhu Di was at a low ebb, and was extremely anxious and came to the East Palace.

The princess's bedroom.

"sister!"

Chang Mao looked at Mrs. Chang and shouted anxiously, "Are you going to watch the things that belong to the prince and the heroes be taken away by Zhu Silang in a despicable way?"

"My brother-in-law was plotted by Zhu Silang..."

Snapped!

Mrs. Chang's face was already embarrassed. The more she listened to Chang Mao's words, the more stupid she became. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and slammed her hand on the table.

Get up...

Staring at Chang Mao with sharp eyes, "Are you really doing this for your brother-in-law? For Xiongying?"

"If it wasn't for you, who else could I do for!" Chang Maoli shouted confidently.

Chang closed her eyes in disappointment, and after a moment, she opened them, "The prince is still on the grassland. If the fourth child really has ulterior motives, your actions will put the prince where he is!"

"You are forcing the Fourth to rebel, but you are ignoring the Crown Prince!"

"To all those who are shouting and killing, you are always considering your own interests from the beginning to the end!"

She was really disappointed.

The fourth child has no intention of rebellion.

She didn't believe that there were so many elites and she couldn't see through them.

To put it bluntly, almost everyone is trying to force the fourth child to rebel for their own selfish purposes, and then use the authority of the court to force the fourth child to death!

They don't care at all about the life or death of the prince!

On the contrary, the fourth child did not take any credit.

At the same time, he left Brother Muying and tens of thousands of elites in Yuanwang City in Yuerhaibei.

On the one hand, he used his personal prestige to call on the grassland tribes to gather under his command and take control to provide a stable treatment condition for the prince.

"Do you think my sister is a fool! If the fourth child really wants to rebel, he will keep his uncle, Fu Youde, Geng Bingwen and other generals in the army and control the army with him?"

"You go back. I have also given instructions at home. After this matter subsides, we will separate the families!"

Chang Mao and Chang Sheng have been fighting openly and secretly for the position of the head of the Chang family.

She has always been unwilling to interfere in the affairs of the Chang family.

She didn't want to give people the impression that she was partial to her biological brother.

In many cases, Chang Sheng was even pressured.

In fact, the two younger brothers have been competing for the identity of their father, Wang Dizhi of Kaiping.

After all, whoever can win this status can inherit his father's legacy.

But Chang Mao really disappointed her this time.

For the sake of his own selfish interests, he completely ignored the safety of the prince.

How are you different from those outsiders?

"Now that this matter has settled down, I will ask my father for instructions. After the Chang family is separated, you will be the worthy Duke of Zheng. Also, as my sister, I would like to remind you one last thing, stop in time and don't regard the fourth child's tolerance as a You are so unscrupulous, this time, he has even done things like seizing military power, and he will not stop until blood is shed. If you don’t want to die inexplicably, stop now!"

"If you have done something, I advise you to find an opportunity to apologize to Miaoyun and Lao Si as soon as possible..."

She was absolutely certain.

This time, the behavior of many people in Ming Dynasty completely chilled Lao Si. ♦♤♗

A person with a very cold temperament.

Tolerant till now.

In fact, it all depends on the sense of responsibility to the Ming Dynasty and the Central Plains.

For the sake of the Ming Dynasty and the overall interests of the Central Plains, we are tolerant.

But when you are completely heartbroken.

The anger must be extinguished with blood!

Therefore, the fourth child will definitely kill someone this time!

Chang Mao's face was pale.

Behind the Chang family, as the eldest sister’s last kind reminder, Chang Mao didn’t listen at all.

All in my mind are the orders to separate the family!

His cheap sister finally stopped pretending.

Finally, he will be driven out of the Chang family using his status as the princess. From now on, he will be the Duke of Zheng.

But it's just a branch of Kaiping Wang Chang Yuchun's lineage!

The legacy left by his father will be inherited by Chang Sheng!

When Mrs. Chang saw Chang Mao leaving, she felt as if she had been drained of energy and energy, and fell down on the soft floor.

These brothers of hers are so useless.

It's too far behind Huizu.

Now, even Zengshou and Yingxu are better than her younger brothers under the guidance of the fourth child!

She is not as good as Miaoyun.

I didn’t teach my brother well!

"mother……"

Mrs. Chang turned around when she heard the sound and saw Zhu Xiongying standing beside her, looking worriedly.

He forced a smile, shook his head and said, "Mom is fine."

"Mom, if the fourth uncle really kills the uncle, will you hate the fourth uncle?"

Chang shook his head and smiled, then reached out and rubbed the back of Xiongying's head, "Everyone must pay the due price for their choices. Mom has worked hard for everything she should do and say."

Goodbye Chan Chahar.

The entire Ming Dynasty was playing games around Zhu Di.

Zhu Di's army is about to leave Chen Chahar.

There are only three days left to travel to Zhangbei.

The army rests.

The leaders of the Mongolian tribes who followed Zhu Di gathered in front of the bonfire, eating barbecue, drinking wine, and watching the cheerful and lively Mongolian girls dancing in the tribe.

It was completely impossible to tell that a big battle had just ended.

This is the grassland tribe.

Annexation among grassland tribes was already frequent.

Especially in the past few years, Togu Si Timur's cultivation of Gu has been bloody and cruel, and it has also trained the rough nerves of the grassland tribes.

Zhu Di came alone and smiled from afar: "It's so lively, why no one came to invite me?"

Hearing the sound, the sound of morinouqin and erhu stopped.

When the tribal leaders saw Zhu Di coming, they stood up one after another, stroking their chests and saluting, saying respectfully: "Meet the Khan."

Zhu Di shook his head helplessly.

Since the tribes continued to join the army, these tribal leaders began to call him Khan.

No matter how I try to correct him, I won’t listen.

It makes people very helpless.

Zhu Di waved his hand casually, sat cross-legged in front of the huge bonfire, pressed his hands, "Everyone, sit down."

The tribal leaders at the nearby bonfire also came to the bonfire where Zhu Di was sitting.

A group of people started chatting.

At the same time, a group of Mongolian girls, blushing from time to time, came over carrying kumiss.

Zhu Di drank more than a dozen bowls and hurriedly waved his hands, "No more, no more. I know you want to get me drunk tonight and drag me into your tent. I can't let you succeed, otherwise I won't be able to live with my family." Wife explains."

Ha ha……

A group of older girls blushed instantly and laughed with a group of tribal leaders.

"Khan, are you still afraid of the princess?"

new

"It's not fear, it's respect. I was demoted to a commoner and went to work as a farmer in the countryside. My wife, a noble lady, came to live with me and live a hard life. Moreover, we have a good relationship, so you can't do bad things with good intentions. Destroy our relationship as a couple."

Ha ha……

Laughter suddenly broke out.

not far away.

Lan Yu, Geng Bingwen and others inspected the camp and passed by.

Hear what Zhu Di said.

Watching Zhu Di quickly mingle with a group of tribal leaders.

Lan Yu couldn't help but smile and shake her head, "This is Zhu Laosi!"

He had to admit that Zhu Laosi had a strong charm that made people admire him involuntarily.

Over the years, as Zhu Laosi has matured, this charm has become more and more obvious.

A few people did not bother, but they were curious and stopped to watch from a distance.

After Zhu Di and a group of tribal leaders laughed, he looked around at everyone, pondered for a while, and said: "I summoned you here and asked you to follow me south for so long, but I haven't talked to you. The main reason is that I have something on my mind and am anxious because of my family. My wife and children may be in danger at this moment..."

The heads of various ministries were full of surprise.

They looked at each other, no one spoke, and listened silently to Zhu Di's story.

After Zhu Di explained the purpose of his trip south, the leaders of various ministries patted their chests one after another.

"Khan, if something happens to the princess and the prince, we are willing to follow Khan to avenge the princess and the prince!"

"Yes! We are not convinced by your Ming Dynasty, but we are convinced by the Khan!"

Zhu Xi, Zhu Yu and others heard the noise at some unknown time and came to Lan Yu, Geng Bingwen and others.

Witness the reactions of leaders of various ministries.

They were all shocked by Zhu Di's prestige on the grassland.

They looked at each other in surprise.

Thinking about it, it suddenly seemed reasonable.

In the eleventh year of Hongwu, he traveled across the grassland.

This time, at least seventy percent of the success in defeating the entire grassland was attributed to Zhu Di.

Prairie people believe in the strong.

Zhu Di is undoubtedly the strong one.

After the war, Zhu Di strictly prohibited the killing of prisoners, and his behavior of rescuing wounded soldiers had already spread.

Whether it is power or benevolence, it is enough to impress many grassland people.

Especially among these tribes, the tribes are not large in size, with a maximum number of just over 10,000 people. They are all tribes that are brutally exploited in the grasslands.

Zhu Di clasped his fists and thanked: "Thank you all leaders, but I don't think there is a need to invade the Central Plains. I hope that this war between the Central Plains and the grasslands, our brothers, will be the last war."

The leaders of the tribes realized that Zhu Di had a bigger topic to talk about, and they listened carefully.

"Has your tribe's living situation been okay these past few years?"

"Khan, no! It's very bad!" A tribal leader shouted loudly: "After the imperial court lost Liaodong, hundreds of thousands of elites all had to be raised by us. In addition, the subsequent annexation wars between major tribes, We small tribes are living a very hard life..."

Zhu Di listened patiently to the leaders of each tribe. In recent years, Togu Si Timur had imposed high taxes on the tribes in the grasslands in order to support 600,000 elites.

It was not until the leaders of various ministries vented their complaints that Zhu Di consulted: "The imperial court is preparing to control the large grassland area south of the Yinshan Mountains and relocate some Central Plains people. At the same time, it is hoped that some grassland tribes can settle down and form a demonstration area for Mongolian and Han mixed living..."

We have brought these tribes here, and we should talk to them about some things.

Seeing the vague warnings from the leaders of various ministries, Zhu Di smiled and explained patiently, "Don't be too busy being guarded, and don't be too busy being defensive. You must give me a chance to finish what I have to say."

His thoughts were seen through, and a group of leaders laughed at him.

"To be honest with you, the imperial court really wants to rule everyone effectively in order to achieve the goal of completely eliminating war and creating greater wealth at the same time."

"The south of Yinshan Mountain is suitable for farming and nomadic herding, especially in the Hetao area. The water conservancy conditions are very good..."

"In the future, the imperial court will implement rural village communities suitable for herdsmen. We, the people of the Central Plains, will be responsible for farming and providing self-sufficient food for the entire demonstration area south of Yinshan Mountain. At least, we must provide more than half of the food. And you, then We provide furs, meat products, the furs you throw away, livestock offal, and cattle and sheep that cannot be eaten and freeze to death every winter. These things are all rare in the Central Plains."

"In the demonstration area, these meat products are pickled on site and trafficked back to the Central Plains. After selling them for money, the fruits, vegetables and tea from the Central Plains are trafficked to the demonstration area."

The leaders of each department were somewhat moved.

I understand everything.

By doing this, the tribesmen under their command benefited greatly.

"Your Majesty, what can we, the upper echelons of the tribe, get?" A straightforward tribal leader asked directly.

Zhu Di smiled, didn't mind at all, and answered patiently: "Some of you will serve as local officials, such as county magistrates, Qianhu Offices, and Inspection Department inspections. After all, the officials in the Central Plains do not understand the grassland people, so they will appoint you It is most suitable to be an official, and you can also get a share of the dividends from the local village community. Of course, because you are officials, you and your descendants are strictly prohibited from intervening in the management of the local village community. The main purpose is to prevent the manipulation of power. Profit will eventually turn rural village communities into an official economy..."

"In the future, the imperial court will recruit your children to the Imperial College for training and learn from our knowledge and experience in governing local areas in the Central Plains. Your Majesty will grant marriage to your children, and the marriage partner will be a noble daughter from the Central Plains..."

Anyway, the imperial court has a draft every few years.

During the draft, some outstanding women were selected and given in marriage to the sons of these tribal leaders.

Education is Chinese.

Marriage stabilizes bilateral relations.

At the same time, Han culture was also brought into the upper strata of these grasslands through women.

It will be 20 or 30 years before the hereditary system is implemented.

Eradicate those who are in cahoots.

Those who are outstanding will be transferred to the Central Plains as officials.

Gradually change the hereditary official positions to the circulating official system.

Step by step, slowly and gently complete the annexation and assimilation.

What's the harm in giving those who actively cooperate with glory and wealth that can be passed down to future generations!

"For some of the upper-level tribes, the imperial court will support you in setting up private stock trading houses to provide you with convenience and discounts for trade between the Central Plains and the grasslands. In the future, even the grassland agency rights of Yanfan's overseas rare goods can also be provided by you. Some people act.”

"Everyone, our two races are brothers. During the Yuan Dynasty, you ruled us. Now in the Ming Dynasty, we rule you. But our Ming Dynasty will definitely do better than you and treat you better. In the future, the grasslands north of Yinshan Mountain will definitely War continues, and a tribe like yours will definitely be in danger. On the other hand, our Ming Dynasty is sincere enough and treats you with the greatest goodwill. You integrate into the development wave of the Ming Dynasty. Even if you do not become the upper class of the tribe in the future, I, the Ming Dynasty, will provide you with With convenient commerce, you can also live a stable and prosperous life..."

"We hope to build an excellent demonstration area in the vast area south of Yinshan Mountain, facing the northern grasslands. In the future, wars will continue north of Yinshan Mountain, and only by doing better can our demonstration area be more attractive to the tribes in the north. Migrating southward, our demonstration area will eventually cross the Yinshan Mountains and advance northward through the strong attraction shown by the demonstration..."

"For some small tribe leaders with hundreds or thousands of people, I know you are tempted. For some large tribe leaders with more than ten thousand people, I know you still can't let go of your power, but it doesn't matter. Medium and large tribes can temporarily stay north of Yinshan Mountain. If you settle down, our dynasty is also willing to conduct business with you. You can watch our words and deeds in the north of Yinshan Mountain. If you think it is suitable, it is not too late to integrate into it..."

He is confident that as long as his father can follow his plan and promote the demonstration area south of Yinshan Mountain step by step.

The herdsmen in the north will run south of Yinshan Mountain!

In the end, it will definitely prompt the upper management of the tribe to choose and completely integrate with them.

"The tribes who have migrated to the demonstration area south of Yinshan Mountain will enjoy the same treatment as us Central Plains people. I will definitely fight for you from my father, a five-year tax holiday!"

The leaders of the various tribes looked at each other and immediately expressed their opinions.

"Khan, I will seriously consider it."

"I believe in Khan, and our department is willing to move to the demonstration area created by Khan!"

"I do too!"

Zhu Di smiled and thanked him.

"Come on, girls, fill the khan up with wine!" a tribal leader greeted loudly.

Suddenly a group of leaders started to boo.

Generous and enthusiastic Mongolian girls swarmed up to me with wine bowls in hand.

After Zhu Di drank more than ten bowls, he fled in a hurry.

It made a group of people laugh heartily.

Zhu Xi and others smiled and greeted him, and followed Zhu Di to make noises.

A group of people had just returned to the vicinity of the handsome tent.

He saw Tan Yuan walking towards him quickly with a worried look on his face.

"Your Majesty, Miss Miaojin is here accompanied by the generals under King Jin!"

The smile on Zhu Di's face froze, "Follow me to the handsome tent."

Zhu Xi and others also followed nervously.

In the handsome tent.

Xu Miaojin drank big gulps of water, and when she heard the sound of the curtain being lifted, she turned her head...

When he saw Zhu Di, he stood up and said, "Brother-in-law, Chunxiao and the others were captured by Shaanxi Chief Minister Meng Gonglin..."

Seeing the cracked corners of Xu Miaojin's lips, Zhu Di comforted him: "Don't worry, tell me slowly and in detail what happened."

In Xu Miaojin's narration.

Zhu Xi, Lan Yu and others all had solemn expressions on their faces.

They did not expect that the situation in the Central Plains would be so acute.

Even Zhu Laosi's students were implicated.

The cold gleam in Zhu Di's eyes grew stronger and stronger, until after patiently listening to Xu Miaojin's explanation, he nodded and said: "I understand, you must be exhausted. Do you want me to send someone to take you to rest?"

Xu Miaojin shook her head hurriedly and looked at Zhu Di anxiously.

Zhu Di smiled and turned around. In an instant, all the smiles on his face disappeared.

His face was as hardened as ice.

"Dongxu, Minfeng!"

"exist!"

"Zhou Lang!"

"arrive!"

Three people stood up.

Zhu Di took out the imperial gold medal and handed it to Zhou Lang: "Dongxu and Minfeng assisted Zhou Lang, holding my imperial gold medal, and went to Shaanxi to rescue Chunxiao and the others. All the officials of the Shaanxi Governor's Yamen, you all give me Find evidence and kill them! As long as some of the wealthy families in Xi'an city are dancing happily, they will be found and killed by me! As for the charges, these people smuggled into the grassland and funded the Northern Yuan Dynasty during our Northern Expedition!"

"Detaining and persecuting Chunxiao and others is to help Bei Yuan and influence our Bei Conquest to destroy Yuan!"

"If someone jumps out while you are fighting for the country, kill them too! Don't be afraid of making things big. I will take care of big things!"

It is unrealistic to fight back to Jinling.

Killing the chief envoy of Shaanxi Province is no big deal!

This time, he is going to commit a murder that will shock the world!

Tell everyone that although there are some reverse scales in him, they are weaknesses.

But when someone wants to touch you, you must carefully consider whether you can afford the price.

"Master, I, I..."

Geng Xuan jumped out, pointed at herself, and said anxiously: "My wife has been arrested. If I don't go back, I will still act like a man!"

Zhu Di glanced at Geng Bingwen.

Geng Xuan was not named.

It's because Geng Xuan is also a member of the Geng family.

Geng Bingwen nodded calmly.

Although Geng Xuan's participation may have some negative impact on the Geng family.

But as this brat said, if your wife is caught, as a man, if you don’t show up, how can you still be called a man?

Zhu Di nodded with a smile, "Okay, you go too, you guys will set off tonight!"

"Yes!" After Zhou Lang received the imperial gold medal, he turned around and left with the three young men. After ordering all the cavalry, he disappeared into the night.

Watch Zhou Lang leave.

Zhu Di turned around and returned to the commander's tent.

Everyone consciously did not disturb Zhu Di.

Fu Youde and Lan Yu walked together and whispered: "Don't you advise King Yan? Kill him according to King Yan's order..."

This murderous case will definitely shock the world!

The chief envoy is a second-grade official.

Don’t talk about King Yan.

Even the prince has no power to kill.

The only person who can kill a second-grade official is Your Majesty!

Moreover, this Meng Gonglin's identity is somewhat special.

The imperial court intended to move the capital.

The prince loves Guanzhong.

Meng Gonglin is a member of the prince's system.

When he was sent to Shaanxi as the chief envoy, he wanted to govern Shaanxi well and make it prosperous.

If the purpose of moving the capital is achieved.

The imperial court is very likely to move its capital to Guanzhong!

Lan Yu shook her head, "Zhu Laosi is full of anger. Do you want to see him really use weapons along the Great Wall, or do you want to see him kill a few rotten scholars?"

There were some words that he couldn't say to Fu Youde.

There are some people in the Prince's family, but Zhu Laosi is very patient, so he has to push the envelope.

Kill one kill, Zhu Laosi was angry at the same time.

It can also make some people in the Prince's system who are hostile to Zhu Laosi understand the consequences of angering Zhu Laosi!

Lest these bastards don't know Zhu Laosi's bottom line and continue to tempt him to death!

During your Majesty's reign, Zhu Laosi went crazy.

It's better than the prince going crazy after he ascends the throne, right?

Your Majesty will definitely protect Zhu Laosi during his next visit.

But once the prince goes crazy, Zhu Laosi will most likely get angry and confront him head-on.

In the past, because he was the prince's uncle-in-law and related to him, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the prince was very outstanding.

In addition, the prince has always been there, and he has been exposed to it since childhood, and he is good at government affairs, and he has indeed performed very well.

But this time the prince led the troops.

After the defeat and resumption.

Only then did he suddenly realize that the prince had some flaws.

Three days later, Zhu Di arrived in Zhangbei.

Two days later, Zhou Wang Zhu Zhu led hundreds of thousands of soldiers from Helin to surrender, as well as small tribes that gathered along the way south. The total force reached Zhangbei with a total force of 300,000.

Since then, the east and west lines have converged.

Zhu Di's total force, with 650,000 soldiers and horses, approached the Great Wall.

The news reached the Imperial Guard Office in Peking.

Jiang Jian held the letter sent by the spy, his hands were numb.

The moment he regained consciousness, he urged: "Quick! Quick, send the news that King Yan has gathered 650,000 troops back to the court!"

Six hundred and fifty thousand soldiers and horses.

The strength of the grassland troops alone is at least 400,000!

Why do these barbarian hozens listen to Zhu Silang so much!

"Commander, commander..." The Jinyiwei General Banner, who was responsible for conveying messages to the imperial court, had not yet left. A general bannerman rushed in in a panic and said in a panic: "There is news from the Jinyiwei stronghold in Datong Prefecture. Three days ago, under the command of King Yan, The cavalry commander Zhou Lang commanded 1,500 elite cavalry, holding the imperial gold medal, crossed Datong Prefecture, and went straight south to Shanxi..."

"Shanxi, Shanxi..."

Jiang 𤩽 murmured to himself and turned to ask Qianhu, "What happened in Shanxi? Have you received any information about Jinyiwei's Shanxi stronghold during this period! Find out all the recent information about Jinyiwei's Shanxi stronghold right away!"

Qianhu left in a panic and soon arrived with a stack of compiled files.

After Jiang 𤩽 snatched it away, he rummaged around at the desk.

For a long time, no useful information was found...

Snapped!

At a certain moment, I thought of something, slammed my hand on the file, and said angrily: "It's not Shanxi, it's Guanzhong Shaanxi!"

"Zhu Silang sent troops directly to Shaanxi! He is really not afraid of making things worse this time!"

"Go, immediately tell the brothers of Jinyiwei Shaanxi branch that they are not allowed to participate in anything Zhou Lang cavalry does in Shaanxi! In addition, report to me in detail what Zhou Lang did!"

After all his subordinates have left.

Jiang Wei slumped down on the chair, exhausted, "Was Zhou Lang ordered to save people, or was he ordered to kill people? The governor of Shaanxi is a person in the prince's system. If Zhu Silang kills this person, what kind of repercussions will it cause in the world? ?”

Xi'an.

The seat of the Chief Envoy.

Caishikou.

The first cavalry mark of the Army sits on the back of a horse.

On the execution platform.

Hundreds of officials, gentry, and scholars were tied up and kneeling.

"The King of Yan is lawless, and I am an official of the imperial court!"

"Zhu Di wants to rebel! Those who capture and kill the rebels are the heroes of the imperial court!"

The officials shouted at the people, hoping that the people could save them.

But even the soldiers and horses of Qianhu Station in Xi'an did not dare to move.

Not to mention the people.

The local generals in Xi'an were all wearing plain clothes and hiding among the onlookers for fear of being implicated.

The people looked at the hundreds of officials on the stage who were unattainable in the past, and they talked a lot.

"Why did King Yan kill these officials?"

"I seem to have heard that King Yan's students were arrested by these officials. Aren't they all talking about King Yan's conspiracy to harm the prince these days?"

"Do you believe it?"

Zhou Lang stood on the edge of the execution platform, listening to the people's discussions, took out a piece of paper, and read loudly: "The King of Yan and the prince's main force have defeated Bei Yuan at Yuerhai, and Bei Yuan's Khan died in the battle..."

"Won?"

"Did the Northern Expedition win?"

When the people heard the news, they immediately started talking excitedly.

A slight smile appeared on Zhou Lang's lips, and his voice suddenly became louder, "After the war, I interrogated the prisoners of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and found that during the war, Shaanxi Chief Minister Meng Gonglin and others colluded with the Northern Yuan Dynasty to smuggle and traffic goods to fund the Northern Yuan Dynasty..."

Although this is made up.

But after last night's interrogation, it was found that some officials were indeed engaged in smuggling.

Even if Meng Gonglin did not participate.

There are other corruption issues too.

"I, General Zhou Lang, under the order of the prince, beheaded 368 people, including Meng Gonglin, who collaborated with the enemy and treason!"

Finished reading.

Zhou Lang turned around, raised his hand and waved violently: "Cut!"

"Zhu Silang, I curse you to die badly!"

"Zhu Silang, you must die a happy death!"

ah!

Amidst the curses, screams sounded.

The cavalry soldiers raised their swords and dropped them, their heads rolling off.

After the heads of 368 officials and local clan leaders fell to the ground.

The whole of Xi'an was shocked.

Zhou Lang rushed in and out quickly, taking Chunxiao and others, quickly evacuated Guanzhong and headed north.

Just after Zhou Lang left, dozens of homing pigeons soared into the sky.

"Quick! Report to the court!"

"There's going to be an earthquake!"
