The dust of the Yujiaping assassination incident has settled, and everyone's attention is focused on the capital.
The quarrel between Crown Prince Xuan Le and a group of veterans headed by Li Hong became more and more fierce, and they were becoming increasingly incompatible. Emperor Cheng Wu reprimanded him several times in the court, but he did not take sides. Emperor Cheng Wu's
The reprimand did not calm down the situation, but the dispute between the crown prince and the old ministers became more and more intense.
In desperation, Emperor Chengwu announced in the court hall that he had completely handed over the power of mediation to King Jing. He also gave King Jing a volume of imperial edict on the spot to show that he would execute the order on my behalf. Emperor Chengwu originally thought that King Jing had
After receiving the imperial edict, effective persuasion and restraint will be carried out immediately. What is strange is that Prince Jing not only did not ask, but also looked for cats and dogs at home every day, and did not even leave the house.
Seeing this situation, Xuan Le thought that Uncle Wang was favoring him, and the suppression against various yamen became more severe. Guo Tianxin watched with cold eyes, knowing that Prince Jing was adding fuel to the fire and wanted to push the ministers to a dead end.
The more King Jing deliberately indulges, the deeper the resentment of the officials towards Xuan Le will be. As long as they encounter a suitable opportunity, their resentment will eventually burst out.
Recently, Xiao Jin Wang Xuanzhu seemed to have suddenly become full of vitality. Regardless of whether it was up or down, the Prince's Palace and the Crown Prince's Palace started a tit-for-tat struggle. Invisibly, Xuanzhu's actions were supported by a group of veterans.
Emperor Jing couldn't stand it, but Emperor Chengwu couldn't stand it. What a good guy, he wanted to give orders, but he entertained cats and dogs at home without asking about political affairs. Emperor Chengwu ordered Wei Zhenghai to go to the palace to question Prince Jing and ask him what he wanted to do.
.
Prince Jing also felt that the heat was almost over. Xiyuan and Zhu Ji were fighting fiercely. If they didn't kill him, Zhu Er might not be able to hold on anymore. After all, Xiyuan's people were strong and his horses were strong, and Zhu Er's elites all followed him.
When the sky descended to the south, he was still full of ambition but not strong enough.
Prince Jing did what he said, and immediately led a team of people from the Admiral's Office to kick out all the people from the Crown Prince's Palace in various yamen. Prince Jing's actions immediately won a round of applause. Even though many officials followed Xuan Le
People, but Xuan Le's strong behavior made them feel that their yamen's rights had been emptied out. Even the courtiers who followed Xuan Le secretly applauded King Jing's move.
Upon learning of this situation, Xuan Le's mother, Concubine Dong Guifei, hurriedly came to the Crown Prince's Palace. Since Empress Rong was placed under house arrest, Concubine Dong Guifei had not wanted to sit on the throne of the queen all the time. However, Emperor Cheng Wu never meant to depose Empress Rong.
This made Concubine Dong very anxious. At this juncture, Concubine Dong did not want her son to make her father angry again.
Looking at Xuan Le's gloomy face, Concubine Dong Gui said pitifully, "Le'er, your father is in a bad mood recently, you'd better bear with it. Mother also feels that you have gone too far in some things. Last night I
I deliberately tested your father and found that he is also a little dissatisfied with you. Le'er, listen to my mother and endure the calm for a while. This Dafeng world will belong to you sooner or later, there is no point in hurrying."
"Mother, Xuan Le did this not to fight for power and gain. The Dafeng Dynasty appeared to be stable, but in fact it was in danger. There were many military factions and civil servants were fighting. There were locust plagues in many places in the Dafeng Dynasty, but no one cared about it. There was a surplus in the financial statements.
, but the treasury is empty. Not to mention Zhu Tianjiang's rebellion, even these incompetent ministers in the capital can bring down the Dafeng Dynasty. Erchen fontstyle="float:left;line-height:0;font
-size:0;overflow:hidden;width:20px;"Kanshu.*Net?*Romance'/font The purpose of doing this is to examine which of these courtiers is usable and which is not.
In order for the Li family to be stable, there are some cancers that will be harmed in the future if they are not removed. Now that I, Xuan Le, have taken the position of crown prince, I have to think about my father and our ancestors of the Li family. Maybe my father is now
I don't understand, but one day he will understand the painstaking efforts of his ministers." Xuan Le frowned, looking concerned about the country and the people.
"Le'er, my mother understands what you're talking about, but she thinks you're a little too impatient. According to the rumors outside, not only are those old ministers working against you, but even that kid Xuanzhu is like a chicken.
"Le'er, please be careful and don't let Xuan Zhu take advantage of the situation." Concubine Dong Guifei, with her delicate delicacy as a woman, realized that something was wrong.
"Humph, the Xuanzhu has not become a thing yet. My fourth uncle has found out that Zhu Jiyin Tower is not owned by Xuanzhu alone. I guess this guy was bewitched by someone, so he stood up and acted arrogantly. The Xuanzhu is nothing, I
What I'm worried about now is Uncle Jing. Those old ministers have a close relationship with Uncle Jing, and this time Uncle Jing has made it clear that he wants to support them."
"Le'er, mother thinks you'd better talk to Prince Jing. After all, you are here for the Li family. I believe Prince Jing will know which is more important."
Xuan Le shook his head, "No need, Uncle Jing is a dead flower in winter, he just wants to protect the interests of the old ministers. If I go to beg him now, I probably fall into the trap of those old ministers. They really want me to beg Uncle Jing, okay?
Let’s take the opportunity to negotiate terms. If I can’t even settle these things, how will I be able to take charge of Dafeng in the future?”
"Le'er, what are you going to do next?"
Xuan Le's face became extremely cold, and he said coldly, "Be strong when you are strong. Only by knocking down their arrogance can all the ministers surrender to the feet of my Crown Prince Xuanzhu."
A conversation between mother and son made Concubine Dong feel that her son was no longer the same Xuan Le as before. From Xuan Le, Concubine Dong felt the domineering aura of a king.
The weather is getting warmer, and people have taken off their thick winter clothes. The Zhennan General's Mansion welcomed a long-lost guest today. Since Zhu Tianjiang's accident, Prince Jing rarely came to Guo Tianxin to avoid suspicion. But today, Prince Jing
Wang arrived and walked into the Guo Mansion in a grand manner.
In the pavilion in the backyard, Guo Tianxin made a pot of good tea with his own hands, "Prince Jing, how come you, a busy man, have time to come to me today?"
Prince Jing looked at the lush green garden, stroking his beard and said, "Tianxin, do you miss your daughter?"
Guo Tianxin chuckled, "Prince Jing, I don't care, I guess you have thought about it."
"Tianxin, do you think that if one day that boy from Tiansheng suddenly returns to the capital with his daughter and grandson, we will be so happy that we can have a fit."
Guo Tian's confidence moved. Hearing King Jing's words, he seemed to be about to launch the most critical blow against Xuan Le.
"Prince Jing, whether Tianxiang and the others can come back depends on the emperor's wishes." Guo Tianxin said with profound meaning.
Prince Jing sighed, "Alas! Tianxin, we brothers are not outsiders. In fact, I think this level of Xuan Le is basically a foregone conclusion. The most important thing is that our eldest brother is still sitting on the throne."
Guo Tianxin's face turned cold, "Prince Jing, my Guo Tianxin will always be named Guo. There are differences between monarchs and ministers, so don't talk nonsense."
"Look, there are no outsiders here, what are you afraid of?" Prince Jing rolled his eyes indifferently.
"No matter whether there are people or not, I am a descendant of the Guo family." Guo Tianxin said seriously.
"Okay, I won't argue with you about this matter. Tianxin, I have an important thing to ask you today. Whether we can bring peace to the world depends on you."
"What, look at me? Prince Jing, what do you mean?" Guo Tianxin looked at Prince Jing in confusion.
King Jing put the whip on the stone table and looked at Guo Tianxin seriously, "Listen, it is estimated that Li Hong will stage a bitter trick today and tomorrow. At that time, those old ministers will formally kneel down to the emperor and demand his deposedness.
The qualifications of Crown Prince Xuan Le. I also want to take this opportunity to have a good talk with the emperor brother, firstly to depose Xuanle, and secondly to cancel all the charges against Zhu Tianjiang. Whether we can succeed or not depends on you."
"I said Prince Jing, did you come to me because you were drunk? What do you mean?" Guo Tianxin asked strangely.
Prince Jing poked his head around and whispered mysteriously, "Send a secret order to the Zhennan Camp and put the current coach Zhang Zhonggao under house arrest immediately. Moreover, if the matter needs to be publicized, the people in the sticky area must know about it."
Guo Tianxin was stunned and looked at Prince Jing in shock, "You~ you are crazy. Putting the coach under house arrest is like rebelling. What on earth do you want to do?"
Prince Jing chuckled, "Just follow my free plan. And the sooner, the better."
Just as Guo Tianxin was about to speak, Prince Jing pointed his finger and said, "Don't tell me that you can't control the Zhennan Camp. You can deceive others but you can't deceive me. Do it quickly. Whether you can see your daughter and grandson in the future, success or failure depends on this. God
Xin, I have something important to do, so I will take my leave now."
King Jing left as soon as he said so, leaving Guo Tianxin, who was still bewildered, sitting alone in the pavilion. Guo Tianxin couldn't understand what King Jing was going to do. If he didn't do it well, the world would really be in chaos.
That night, Guo Tianxin specially sent someone to ask Zhu Er to come to the house secretly. After the two people discussed it, Zhu Er didn't understand what Prince Jing was going to do. You must know that the head coach was under house arrest, and all the generals were ordered to be interrogated and killed. Isn't this right?
Forced to rebel? To be on the safe side, Zhu Er immediately rushed to the palace to find out. When Zhu Er came back, he was still confused. Prince Jing gave it a try and just asked Zhu Er to tell Guo Tianxin to go ahead and do everything.
He will bear the consequences.
Guo Tianxin thought about it again and again, and finally decided to do what Prince Jing said. Guo Tianxin wrote a line of small characters with a pen, made a special secret, and put it in a very thin bamboo tube.
"Su Long!" Guo Tianxin shouted to the door.
Su Long, the head of the personal guard, ran in quickly and said, "My subordinate is here."
"Use the bald eagle I brought from Zhennan to pass this thing to General Shang." Guo Tianxin said and handed the bamboo tube to Su Long.
Su Long's eyes lit up, and he thought the general was going to take action. Even though they were far away from Zhennan, every soldier and general in the Zhennan camp still obeyed any instructions from Guo Tianxin.
In the darkness of the night, a falcon spread its wings and flew into the sky, circled several times over Guo Mansion, and flew quickly to the south.
