"You seem to have forgotten that they are not the only descendants of the Zhu family."
Princess Lu said.
"You said Prince Jin also cares about the throne?"
Yang Feng said.
He has always lacked attention to King Jin.
After all, he only remembered that the latter died soon after.
But if you really want to count, King Jin is the boss among the vassal kings at this time. Regardless of his age or the strength he possesses, he is the head of all kings. Even Zhu Di is a little weaker than him. The key is that he controls the northwest, and
There has always been a mess of tribal settlements.
"Whether King Jin cares about the throne, it's hard to say, but King Jin definitely doesn't like King Yan and the emperor's grandson. He and King Yan have always had a bad relationship. They even accused each other over the vassal issue, so he will definitely not support it.
King Yan and the emperor's grandson have now made it clear that they want to reduce the vassal, so as the current head of the vassal king, King Jin will definitely not support him.
Who else is left?
Isn’t there another Zhu Yunwen?
If chosen among these three people, the King of Jin would definitely support Zhu Yunwen.
For the same reason, other vassal kings also don't like the emperor's grandson succeeding to the throne. After all, no one likes to cut down the vassal.
As for King Yan, except for King Xiang who supported him, most of the other vassal kings would not like him.
Including the king of Zhou.
He is too strong.
If he becomes the emperor, then the other vassal kings will still have to hide their tails between their legs, not to mention that anyone who becomes the emperor will do such things.
Who can resist the feudal king?
When the emperor's grandson succeeds to the throne, if everyone is really pushed into a hurry, they can still rebel. After all, facing him, the vassal kings are not without the strength to fight.
But who dares to rebel after King Yan succeeds to the throne?
Who can beat him?
So who is most in line with the wishes of the feudal princes? It’s not Zhu Yunwen. If Zhu Yunwen can exchange certain promises for the support of the feudal princes, wouldn’t he have the strength to fight for the throne?”
Princess Lu said.
"I did ignore the problem."
Yang Feng stroked his mustache with a serious look on his face.
He did ignore this, or he was disturbed by his traditional impression of Zhu Yunqi. He always associated Zhu Yunqi with the reduction of vassal status. But the problem is that the removal of vassal status was the Zhu Yunwen of the past. In order to seize the throne, the current Zhu Yunqi was completely
You can exchange the support of the vassal kings by not cutting down the vassal vassal. For the vassal kings, if he promises not to cut down the vassal vassal, or even gives them more power, then compared with the other two, he is the one who is most in line with the vassal kings.
Wang Yi’s candidate has been selected.
The vassal king did not like Zhu Yunxi, who had publicly called for cutting the vassal.
I don’t like the powerful King Yan.
Understandable.
The vassal king naturally resented the powerful emperor.
So Zhu Yunwen, who is currently the weakest and can even be said to have failed, has become the most suitable choice for them. If someone pulls the strings at this time, they are likely to unite.
If this is the case, then Zhu Yunwen's strength can be said to have skyrocketed.
Even more than Zhu Di.
Those civil servants who supported Zhu Yunxi could also accept this. They did not like Zhu Yunxi, because Zhu Yunxi accepted new ideas, and they were naturally disgusted with Confucian scholars like them. Especially the reform of the imperial examination and the new education had already touched the bottom line of these civil servants.
If they had some illusions about Zhu Yunxi before, then after the debate between Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Yuanzhang on education, the civil servants had realized what they had to do.
In this case, the issue of the feudal king is not the most important.
The issue of feudal lord does not involve principles.
As for Zhu Di, the civil servants actually didn't like him either.
He looks so much like Zhu Yuanzhang.
The civil servants really didn't want to serve a new Zhu Yuanzhang.
In this case, Zhu Yunzhen, the civil servants, and the vassal kings had a basis for unity, so it was likely that the King of Jin or another vassal king was involved in the assassination.
Zhu Yuanzhang should have guessed this, so he feels a little uncomfortable now. After all, most of his sons are probably behind this. Because of the expansion of the internal fighting in his family over the throne, more and more children and grandchildren are involved. This is for a
It's really sad to be an old man in his seventies...
No matter who they are, they are his flesh and blood.
He didn't want to make a big fuss.
He didn't want to have to raise a knife against his own flesh and blood when he was about to die.
He is getting old after all.
Of course, the key is still your own flesh and blood. You really can't cut this off. You can peel off the skin like Lan Yu, but when it comes to your own children and grandchildren, even Lao Zhu will inevitably have some affection for his children.
"Look, even this imperial family can't escape this fate!"
Yang Feng said with gloating.
In fact, historically, the vassal kings were also confused by Zhu Yunwen. After all, he was good at acting. Even in the eyes of the vassal kings, this nephew was still a benevolent and filial king. Even if he cut down the vassal, he should not be too dark. His
His character has never been ruthless, and those feudal kings also looked away. They never expected that this guy would not only cut down the feudal clan, but also kill them.
But before taking the throne, Zhu Yunwen did appear to be relatively weak.
Now the vassal kings look at him in the same way.
A man of letters.
A tolerant person.
They don’t know that these scholars have evil hearts!
"Nonsense, if you become the supreme king in the world, who wouldn't rush to be the first if you really have the chance? That damn devil in my family is just a vassal king, and he can already do whatever he wants in the fiefdom. If he succeeds to the throne, he can have the opportunity to do whatever he wants in the world. Do you think he will fight hard?
That’s why you are so unmotivated, you obviously have the ability to strive for supremacy in the world, but you insist on fooling around all day long.”
Princess Lu said.
After saying that, he still hugged Yang Feng.
"I think it is very wrong for you to say this as the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family."
Yang Feng said.
"Hmph, I also feel that as the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family, it is very wrong for me to roll on the same bed with you, so Ambassador, please respect yourself."
"Then I'm really leaving!"
"you dare!"
…
the next day.
In the office of the Wutaishan embassy, the little princess sniffed Yang Feng like a cat. Her little face that seemed to be a little inconsistent with her figure was full of suspicion...
"Why, I just went to Liu Sanwu's house to do some reconnaissance, and I came back a little late."
Yang Feng said.
"real?"
said the little princess.
"You have to believe me. Who else can I go to besides your female officer?
By the way, how long will your nephew cry?"
Yang Feng put his arm around her shoulders and said.
"Not long after we left, my father sent a message to let him enter the palace. He first went to see my father, and then went to the East Palace to visit Yunxi. The two brothers showed their brotherly love. Now they are still in the East Palace. Last night he
Stay in the East Palace, but rumors have begun to spread outside that it is a conspiracy between Yunxi and you, trying to kill two birds with one stone to get rid of Yunwen and King Yan.
He also said that those White Lotus cultists were evidence.
Those were your men. You deliberately asked your men to assassinate Yunxi, and then you were nearby. The assassination would definitely fail if you were there, but you deliberately kicked the grenade into the air, hoping to kill King Yan.
King Yan was indeed shot.
His helmet was hit twice, and two of his guards were killed and seven injured.
This is enough to prove that you just want to blow up King Yan.
However, there are also rumors that it was King Yan who did it.
I also want to kill two birds with one stone. The evidence is that those White Lotus believers are all from the north.
Anyway, rumors are spreading."
said the little princess.
"Didn't you say it was Zhu Yunwen's?"
Yang Feng said.
"No, everyone agrees that he is a virtuous gentleman and has not been out of the Tenth Prince's Palace for many years. He cried so aggrieved yesterday. It is obvious that he is causing trouble. Besides, it is precisely because he is under suspicion that he will not do something that will obviously cause trouble.
Anyway, it can't be him.
It is most likely that you and Yunxi are collaborating on a bitter conspiracy.
King Yan comes second."
The little princess who finally found nothing unusual said.
"If this wasn't organized and premeditated, I wouldn't believe it. He even came up with a stratagem? Shooting from such a distance to do a stratagem? If the bullet misses a single point, his head will explode!"
Yang Feng exclaimed.
This reaction speed is definitely premeditated.
"The common people don't understand. Your gun can hit 100 times at a few hundred steps. Isn't it normal for a magic gun to hit 100 times at 50 steps? Besides, the training of the Shenji Camp is that at 50 steps, it is supposed to hit 100 times with 100 hits. Of course the people believe it. The key is yesterday.
Yunwen cried as if he had been wronged. He had a good reputation and cried sincerely. People naturally felt sympathy after seeing this, and it was easy to believe the rumors when they came out.
In fact, no matter who did it, the final blame was placed on the White Lotus Sect.
We won't really find out.
It was Bai Lian who took revenge on Han Lin'er.
Jin Yiwei didn't find anything else.
As for the magical gun, it was indeed not manufactured by the Ministry of Industry, but was copied privately.
The Ministry of Industry is strictly investigating the craftsmen.
As for when it will be found out, it’s hard to say. The Ministry of Industry has thousands of craftsmen involved in manufacturing the magical gun. This thing is not complicated, so it is not surprising that it was leaked. "
said the little princess.
It's obvious that she is quite satisfied with the result.
As for the rumors, they are not worth mentioning. There are many rumors about Yang Feng, and there is no less than one more. But since it is locked to the White Lotus Sect, it means that this round of internal fighting in the Zhu family is over.
Of course, it's just this round.
It’s hard to say when the next round will be.
This matter related to the fight for the throne will not end until Zhu Yunxi officially ascends the throne. It is hard to say whether it will end even after Zhu Yunxi officially ascends the throne. But for her, this is the result that she can want now. Everyone
They all got along with each other tacitly, and then secretly waited for opportunities to attack each other, but on the surface they were still relatives and maintained a false harmony.
Pretended harmony is also harmony, as long as it is not made public.
Imperial family, this is very good.
"Let's go to the East Palace!"
Yang Feng said.
"What are you going to do?"
The little princess is coquettish.
Of course she knew this guy had bad intentions.
"I, the dignified envoy of the Great Xia Kingdom, go to visit the grandson of the emperor of your country on behalf of the Great Xia Kingdom. Isn't this the friendship between friendly nations?"
Yang Feng said.
Of course, he just wanted to see how people perform brotherly love. He also wanted to observe Zhu Yunwen up close. It had been several years since he came to Ming Dynasty. He and Emperor Jianwen had not spoken to each other yet, and they had only met a few times in total.
Second-rate.
The two of them immediately went downstairs, then boarded the carriage and put on a full guard of honor...
The righteous daughter group.
Ambassador Yang's honor guard is the adopted daughters.
A military band played drums and trumpets in the front, and followed the carriage in formation behind.
However, it is far away from the palace, so the honor guard has a separate carriage. Only when necessary, they all get off the car and line up. In short, the honor guard of the Ambassador of Daxia came down from Wutai Mountain, and Ambassador Yang also put on a full dress and went to the East Palace on behalf of Daxia.
Visiting the emperor's grandson. When they approached the imperial city, the honor guard got off the bus, and they walked towards the imperial city bustling with trumpets and drums. However, when they approached the right gate of Chang'an, Yang Feng knew that his wish had failed...
"Yunwen!"
The little princess looked at the carriage driving out of the city gate and said.
Zhu Yunwen left the palace.
"I still want to watch a show!"
Yang Feng said dissatisfied.
And his motorcade continued to move forward, and Zhu Yunwen's carriage came towards him. People on both sides stopped, obviously looking forward to watching the excitement, looking forward to something happening between the two of them. Speaking of which, Zhu Yunwen lost his position as crown prince because of Yang Feng.
By that time almost everyone knew it.
O enemy!
A pair of enemies meet on a narrow road.
"The emperor's grandson!
I saw you crying so hard at Chengtianmen yesterday, so I couldn’t come up to disturb you, and I don’t want to meet you here today!”
Yang Feng waved enthusiastically to Zhu Yunwen on the carriage.
Zhu Yunwen ignored him. It was obvious that a gentleman like Huangsun would not approach a monster like him. However, he looked at the little princess beside him and then said to the coachman. The carriage stopped.
He stepped out of the carriage, then stood on the roadside with a respectful look and saluted...
"Yunwen has met the Fourteenth Aunt!"
he said.
This is his aunt, etiquette must not be broken.
The little princess had no choice but to stop the carriage, then pretended to be an elder and pushed Yang Feng to go out and talk to her nephew.
But almost at the same time, a figure suddenly rushed out from the crowd...
"Emperor Grandson, I have avenged you!"
The man then shouted.
Then he raised the flint-haired short gun in his hand under a look of astonishment, and without hesitation pulled the trigger at Zhu Yunwen...
"Fuck!"
Yang Feng was shocked.
He and the little princess stretched out their necks at the same time like two Brazilian tortoises, watching the flames spurting from the muzzle of the flintlock gun in the man's hand. But at the same time, the little eunuch next to Zhu Yunwen screamed in surprise and took a step forward without hesitation.
, the bullet hit his chest, and the little eunuch fell backward under the impact of the bullet.
What happened was so sudden that everyone was stunned.
They all stared at this scene in stunned silence.
It wasn't until the loyal and brave little eunuch fell at Zhu Yunwen's feet that the guards following the carriage reacted. They screamed and rushed towards the assassin, but the latter simply pulled out a knife and stabbed himself in the heart...
The crowd immediately became confused.
Even the soldiers at the city gate rushed here.
"Why is this, why is this..."
Zhu Yunwen sat slumped on the ground, looking devastated, covering his face and crying bitterly, as if he was crying for the tragic fate of his brothers who were incompatible.
Yang Feng and the little princess looked at each other.
"Bitter meat trick!"
They both said with certainty at the same time.
Zhu Yunwen, who was crying, seemed to hear it and suddenly stopped crying, but only briefly. Then he cried even louder, as if his heart was broken from crying, and twitched there, making the people on both sides feel sad.
