Duanben Palace, the residence of the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, is also called the East Palace because it is located in the Donghua Gate in the east of the Forbidden City. The east part is called "green", which implies the blooming of all things in spring.
All things are flourishing, that is to say, they are very energetic. Since the imprisonment of the country, Crown Prince Zhu Ruoji has become very energetic and gets up early every day.
Crown Princess Sun Rou gently helped him change his clothes. She came from a scholarly family, the Rongcheng Sun family, and her every move showed her ladylike demeanor.
"My beloved concubine, I have gone to court first, you will wait for me tonight," Zhu Ruoji gently squeezed Sun Rou's hand and said softly. Sun Rou's pretty face couldn't help but blush, and her eyebrows were full of love. The couple was married for the first time.
In the same year, the emperor’s eldest grandson Zhu Yixuan and the emperor’s grandson Zhu Yican were born, and their relationship is still as good as honey.
"Your Highness, Guan Shoufu and Guo Xiaozai (also known as the Minister of Civil Affairs) are here", reported from left to right.
Zhu Ruodeng looked around and saw two figures hurriedly running in the direction of Chonghui Gate. They were Guan Shouzhen and Guo Fengqing. He was grateful to Guan Shouzhen for his support and allowed him to enter the mansion directly without notification. However, Guan Shouzhen was not informed.
He abides by court etiquette and never enters without notification. Now he has made an exception. It seems that something big is bound to happen!
"Your Highness, something big has happened! Guo Xiaozai observed the military camp of Prince Ji's Mansion today and found that the amount of smoke in the military camp has more than doubled. The officials judged that Prince Ji may have smuggled troops into the imperial city." Sure enough, as soon as Guan Shouzhen arrived, he
A shocking news was told.
Zhu Ruoji frowned. The imperial city was only a few miles away from the palace. His second brother had brought troops and horses under his nose. He had to get rid of this serious problem as soon as possible! He originally wanted to wait for his father, the emperor, and the empress before taking action, but it seemed that he couldn't wait any longer.
Got it!
"If you supervise the country without stopping, you will be subject to chaos! Please make a decision as soon as possible," Guan Shouzhen shouted.
"Yes." Zhu Ruodeng nodded and ordered: "Come here, call Mr. Gu Ge, Duke of Fujian, Marquis Wu Chuan, and Ning Haibo. This matter must be discussed carefully."
Zhu Ruoji stared at Guan Shouzhen, Gu Yi, Yan Xiaoyong, Bai Wenxuan, He Jiuyi, Zhao Yinxuan, Guo Fengqiang, Tang Zhen, Xia Rubi, Liu Yipeng, Zhang Hu, Yu Tai, Zhao Yinxuan, Hu Yiqing, Zhang Guoyong, Zhao Desheng, Lin Jiading, Yang Bangda
, Han Ruyan's confidants slowly said: "King Ji smuggled troops and horses into the imperial city with evil intentions. He wanted to repeat the old incident at Xuanwu Gate, and on the pretext that his father was critically ill, he lured him into Xuanwu Gate and captured him. Is that okay?"
"The Xuanwu Gate is too famous for the supervision of the country, so it is better to set up an ambush near the Xihua Gate," said the guard's motto.
Zhu Ruoji suddenly realized that, indeed, Xuanwu Gate was so famous that the three brothers Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji staged a threesome here. If the second brother was called in from this gate, he would definitely become suspicious. He changed his words and said: "
What the chief assistant said was true, so he summoned his second brother to Xihua Gate and captured him."
Prince Ji's Mansion is located near Bei'anmen in the north of the imperial city. Xuanwumen is the north gate of the palace. Originally, Zhu Ruodeng entered the palace through this gate, which was the closest, but if he entered through Xihua Gate in the west, he would have to make a big circle.
.But in order to avoid the suspicion of Xuanwu Sect, this is the only way.
"In supervising the country, I thought that while luring King Ji into Xihua Gate, I also had to deal with the troops loyal to him to prevent his confidants from rescuing him," Gu Yi said.
"Well, Gu Ge's old saying makes sense. Do you have any ideas? Just say it alone."
"To supervise the country, I think King Ji's troops are mainly divided into three parts. Longhu Town, commanded by Xingye Marquis Yang Fuchen and Yuan'an Bo Chen Youlong, is stationed in the outer city. Guangchang Bo Li Yuanyin, Zhao Desheng and Xuanping Bo Dong Fangce can lead
The Fujun Town restrained them; the Huben Town commanded by Hou Mabao of Pucheng was stationed in the capital, and Wuchuan Hou Bai Wenxuan, the general Zhao Yinxuan, and Lin Jiading led the Xiaoqi Town to stop them; the elite of the King of Ji were all at the palace and the palace next to the palace.
In the military camp, you can order the commander-in-chief Liu Yipeng and Hu Yiqing to lead three thousand East Palace guards and lie down outside Xihua Gate, waiting for King Ji to enter and capture them immediately. Order the Duke of Fujian Yan Xiaoyong, Ning Haibo He Jiuyi, and the commander-in-chief Zhang Hu to lead Jinwu Town
He and five thousand East Palace guards attacked Prince Ji's Mansion. You will lead Zhang Guoyong, and General Yang Bangda will be stationed in Duanben Palace to command." Gu Yi proudly presented his strategy for pacifying Ji.
"Okay, Mr. Gu Ge's method is simple and clear, so let's do it this way." Zhu Ruo was very happy.
"Supervising the country, I thought that Mr. Gu Ge had neglected Concubine Chen and the Concubine Xian, who had always supported King Ji, and Concubine Ning, the two Mongolian concubines. We should send Captain Han to surround the palace of the three concubines; at the same time, let Mr. Yu be optimistic about His Majesty."
, Xia Rubi, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, added.
"Well, Xia Shilang's words are a sure-fire strategy. Han Ruyan, you immediately send guards to surround the third concubine's palace; Mrs. Yu, you must guard Qianqing Palace and protect your father." Zhu Ruoji said "protect well"
Very heavy.
"Yes!" Everyone's response made Duanbendian tremble.
"Supervising the country, gentlemen, the arrangements just now are based on King Ji being lured into Xihua Gate, but what if King Ji doesn't fall into the trap? I think a few days ago, we took over the military power, and the news was too big. King Ji
I have always been suspicious, so I may not fall into the trap," Tang Zhen said worriedly.
"Hahaha", Chief Assistant Guan Shouzhen suddenly laughed loudly, "I would like to ask the supervisor to meet someone."
"Oh, who is that person?" Zhu Ruoji asked in surprise.
Guan Shouzhen clapped his hands a few times, and a thin general with stern eyes came in.
"This is He Shizhang, a general under Chen Qice and the commander of the front camp of Tengxiang Town. This man not only followed King Ji to fight against the Rakshasa people, but was also an old subordinate of Chen Bangyan. King Ji and Chen Bangyan wooed him many times, but they
Unexpectedly, He Shizhang had already taken refuge with me, and he was following my order to make false promises. On November 9th, He Shizhang was on duty at Xihua Gate. If King Ji knew that he was the guard of Xihua Gate, he would definitely
You've thrown yourself into a trap!" After saying that, Guan Shouzhen laughed proudly again.
"Oh, the chief assistant is so far-sighted!"
"Yeah, I didn't expect the chief assistant to have such a wonderful move!"
Everyone was so impressed that they fell to the ground and praised him endlessly.
Zhu Ruoji was very pleasantly surprised, "Oh, the chief minister is really experienced in planning for the country. In this case, this plan will definitely work! On November 9th, we can lure King Ji into Xihua Gate to capture him!"
Tang Zhen frowned and advised: "Supervisor of the country, you have the title of righteousness. Now that you know that King Ji has mobilized troops into the imperial city, you only need to send heavy troops to guard the palace city. Then send people to inspect King Ji's barracks and count the number of people. King Ji will be frightened.
If he rebels, he will become a traitor. When the time comes to attack the city without breaking it, if you use all the troops in the world to attack it, his division will be defeated. Why do you need to use dangerous tactics to make this deception? Once it fails, it will be in danger!"
After hearing this, Guan Shouzhen was furious. What a Tang Zhen. He was highly valued by the prisoner at a young age. He was so young and frivolous that he dared not to take the old man seriously. I finally prepared a clever plan, but you actually said it was a dangerous move in the army.
Damn it! Then he said in a nonchalant manner: "In order to supervise the country, the only safest way is to lure King Ji into Xihua Gate and capture him. If Tang Zhen's plan is used to force King Ji to rebel, I'm afraid the city of Nanjing will be filled with blood!"
"Yes, the chief minister's method is the safest, please follow it." Gu Yi also stood by Guan Shouzhen.
"Well, Master Tang, there is no need to persuade him any more. He has already decided to capture King Ji on November 9th and eliminate the traitors!" Zhu Ruoji shouted.
"I swear to the death to follow the supervision of the country, capture the King of Ji, and eliminate the traitors!" In Duanben Hall, excited voices surged like a tide.
