Chapter 74 When it comes to disappointing people, Zhu Di never disappoints
Among the three people Zhu Di asked, the prince, the king of Han, and the king of Zhao, who wanted to rebel the most?
One person surfaced directly.
King of Han: That must be me!
Yes, King of Han.
Otherwise, it was just because the King of Han was so capable that he considered himself Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. In the past, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident to imprison his father and kill his brother to win the throne. The King of Han did not seem to hide his enthusiasm for imitating Li Shimin.
But neither Zhu Gaojie nor Zhu Di believed that the King of Han planned this matter.
Because it was too obvious, as if someone was deliberately leading to frame the King of Han.
"The rain has stopped."
Zhu Di looked out of the cave and saw that the heavy rain had gradually subsided. The thick dark clouds were torn apart, and the sun penetrated the deep darkness and shone down, like the holy dawn that saved the world, shining over the mountains and plains.
Outside the cave, footsteps sounded, and a group of people wearing black clothes and carrying scimitars came over.
Not the swordsman who assassinated the emperor, but the Shadow Attendant.
Zhu Gaojie smiled. Now he understood why Zhu Di had been calm in the face of danger.
From the beginning, Zhu Di already knew that he was going to be assassinated.
He deliberately gave the assassin a chance to take action, using Emperor Hunting to confuse the enemy into taking the bait.
He was not interested in assassination, but he wanted to know who wanted to kill him.
The shadow guards are like Zhu Di's shadow guards. No one can find them, but they follow Zhu Di everywhere.
As long as Shadow Attendant is around, no one can hurt Zhu Di even a hair.
The only surprise was the sudden heavy rain, which brought about some changes, which Zhu Di had not planned.
In the past, Prime Minister Zhuge, although he had all kinds of abilities, he finally fell under a heavy rain. God helped Cao but not Han.
Zhu Di looked calm and waved his hand: "Go back to camp and continue patrolling Shuntian in the north!"
His purpose has been achieved.
The flying geese leave traces. No matter how deep the people who lead the assassination are hidden, and no matter how secretive their actions are, a big move like mobilizing nearly a thousand people to assassinate the king will inevitably leave some traces. Through these traces, it is not difficult to
Find out who is behind the scenes.
…
Jinling City, Han Dynasty Palace
Prince Zhu Gaoxu of Han Dynasty's fingers were trembling at this moment.
He had already learned about the assassination of Zhu Di during his northern patrol.
He is not a fool, so he can naturally understand that the most suspect person at present is himself.
The King of Han regretted it! He regretted that he was too arrogant and claimed to be Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty!
Now that the emperor is assassinated, everyone will immediately think of Prince Han.
Wuhu! Our Ming Dynasty will also stage a Xuanwu Gate Incident?
You, Prince of Han, also want to imprison your father, kill your brother, and usurp the throne?
But King Han really wanted to shout to everyone: "It's really not me who did this!!"
He had followed Zhu Di in the army and fought since he was a child, so he naturally knew that if he wanted to confront the old man head-on, he would be throwing eggs at stones and seeking death.
When Zhu Di visited the north, he brought the fourth battalion of the "Fenglinhuoshan" pro-army army. Although there were less than 10,000 people, they were all the best of the best selected from the three major battalions of the capital and the Forbidden Army. Zhu Di could do this with these 10,000 people.
Destroyed a small country!
Not to mention that the King of Han has now been deprived of military power. Even if he had military power, he still couldn't defeat Zhu Di who led the fourth battalion of his own army!
"Which bastard is trying to harm me!" King Han felt that he was now being taken advantage of, taking the blame for others.
At this moment, Su Qing, the chief counselor of the Han Palace, walked over in a hurry. He had no time to salute, but asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, you must discuss this with me in advance about assassinating the king and killing the driver, right?"
Su Qing was extremely aggrieved now. He had served the Han Palace for so many years, but the King of Han was hiding such a big thing from him.
Could it be that the King of Han did not trust him and found other advisers?
Su Qing felt that there was a vague hat of forgiveness on her head.
"If I said it wasn't me, would you believe it?" King Han said angrily.
Su Qing was silent for a while, saying nothing, but it seemed as if she had said everything.
Even tmd’s own family members thought he was assassinating the emperor!
This shows how subtle the King of Han’s reputation was.
…
East Palace
When he learned that the emperor had been assassinated, Prince Zhu Gaochi's first reaction was - the King of Han did it!
The second child really couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to seek power and usurp the throne!
Zhu Pangpang almost couldn't help but mobilize the Beijing Camp and the Twelve Guards to rush directly into the Han Palace. Regardless of anything else, he had to hold down his dick first!
However, the wise prince finally controlled himself rationally and figured out the complicated truth behind the matter.
Based on his understanding of the King of Han, the King of Han would never have the guts to assassinate the old man. At most, he would just brag.
"Your Highness, what should we do now? Do we need to control the King of Han first?" Jin Zhong, Minister of War, said.
Jin Zhong is the chief minister of the East Palace. He was one of the driving forces behind Zhu Gaochi being appointed as the prince and Zhu Zhanji as the emperor's grandson. He worked hard to assist the prince in benevolent governance and supervise the country, protect the prince and the assistant ministers in the East Palace. He can be called the number one hero under the prince's command.
, even Xie Jin could not compare with Jin Zhong's status in the heart of the prince.
When he learned that the emperor had been assassinated, the figure of the King of Han appeared in his mind uncontrollably.
"I feel that this assassination was not done by the King of Han." The prince rubbed his eyebrows, "But no matter who did it, it has made the matter bigger this time. I am afraid that even the East Palace cannot be spared."
He knew Zhu Di's style very well.
The old man never only kills the culprit, he will beat everyone in line as soon as he does it! You said it has nothing to do with you? Just beat him!
When Zhu Di came to Beijing, he ordered Fang Xiaoru, a loyal minister of Jianwen, to write a succession edict, but Fang Xiaoru refused.
Zhu Di: Do you want to write or not?
Fang Xiaoru: If you don’t want to write, get out!
Zhu Di: You are so crazy, do you believe that I killed nine of your tribes?
Fang Xiaoru: If you don’t believe me, what if you kill all ten of my clans?
Zhu Di: OK, I will fulfill your wish.
Maybe Fang Xiaoru thought that Zhu Di was bragging. After all, the Nine Clan had already killed its disciples. Where did you find the Tenth Clan?
However, Zhu Di never disappoints people. If he said that he would punish the ten clans, he would punish the ten clans. After he killed all the people who had anything to do with Fang Xiaoru, he even found and slaughtered the disciples of Fang Xiaoru's disciples.
The tenth tribe was created!
Prince Zhu Pangpang now has a headache. He really can't figure out how stupid a person must be to do such a thing.
"If it wasn't the King of Han who did it, then..." Jin Zhong touched his chin, his eyes serious, "Is it possible?"
The prince's body trembled slightly, he had already guessed who Jin Zhong wanted to talk about.
"It is indeed possible, no!" the prince said decisively, "It is not possible, it must be him!"
Yes, he does everything but good deeds, is good at conspiracy, looks smart, but actually becomes stupid when big things happen, who else could he be?
"well……"
The prince sighed, "Even if we know who did it, what can we do? The emperor's anger cannot be borne by him alone. In the end, everyone will be implicated. We can only resign ourselves to fate and do our duty."
Let the people in the East Palace calm down for the past two days and do less and make fewer mistakes."
Unlucky enough to meet a father like Zhu Di, the prince felt that if he didn't live long, the old man must have been frightened!
