Cao Zhen was worthy of being a man who survived the Hongwu period and was selected by Zhu Yuanzhang to be the husband of Zhu Biao's eldest daughter. Not only did he not show any surprise at Yunxi's words, but seeing that Yunxi had no intention of talking now, he didn't even ask.
, just agreed.?
Yunxi said: "Among the forty-eight guards in Beijing, I will mobilize twenty guards for you, and then mobilize six guards from the surrounding areas." Then Yunxi took out the map and the documents from the Fifth Army Governor's Office, and continued
: "Mobilize the Yangzhou Guards, Fengyang Central Guards, Liubei Central Guards, Hangzhou Guards, Hezhou Guards, and Xuzhou Guards as part of the counter-rebellion army."
Then Yunxi said: "You go down first, I will tell you about other things tomorrow."
Several people retreated.
Then Yunxi asked a person from Zhongshushe to write down the order to mobilize troops and sent it to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army.
After that, Yunxi stood up and walked towards a place in the palace.
In the Royal Academy in the palace, although the teachers above were still teaching seriously and no one in the clan below dared to discuss loudly, many people secretly glanced at Zhu Xianyao from time to time.
Ever since the news of Zhu Shu's rebellion came, everyone looked at Zhu Xianyao with something wrong. Although Yunxi was strict with everyone, he did not wait at all. He also dealt with Zhu Shu according to the rules, so everyone thought that Zhu Shu
There is no reason to rebel.
So although everyone knew that Zhu Xi's rebellion had nothing to do with Zhu Xianyao, and he had no reason to instigate his own father to rebel, everyone looked at him in a different way, although no one said anything.
This put great pressure on Zhu Xianyao. Fortunately, after talking for a few days, everyone got tired of it, and Yunxi didn't express anything, so everyone gradually returned to normal.
But after today's news came, everyone looked at Zhu Xianyao differently. Although Zhu Xianyao had chosen the most remote location, he could still feel countless eyes looking at him.
Zhu Xianyao wanted to stand up and yell at those who kept looking at him, or even fight. But he still had sense and endured it.
After a while, the teacher of this class announced that the get out of class was over. Zhu Xianyao stood up as soon as the teacher announced the get out of class was over and was about to leave. He didn't want to suffer this kind of suffering at all.
But today, as soon as he left the classroom, he heard someone calling him: "Zhu Xianyao, I have something to tell you."
Zhu Xianyao's body was shocked at that time! Because he could hear that the voice was Yunxi's.
‘Are we going to officially announce what to do with our people from King Qi’s lineage?’ Zhu Xianyao thought. Yunxi had not heard anything about them these days, which actually made him feel uneasy.
'That's all, it's better to finish early than to drag yourself up and down like this.' Zhu Xianyao continued to think.
Then Zhu Xianyao turned around, walked to Yunxi, bowed and said, "My brother, I have seen your Majesty."
Yunxi looked at Zhu Xianyao, who was bending over in front of him, and noticed that his body was shaking a little. Although Zhu Xianyao thought it would be too late, he was actually not willing to lose his current glory and wealth, so he inevitably had some reactions.
of.
Yunxi said: "Brother Zhu Xianyao, you already know the news that came today. Xie Cheng has rebelled, and the situation in Shandong is already at risk of corruption."
Zhu Xianyao said in an unnatural voice: "My brother knows."
Yunxi continued: "In this case, the imperial court must send troops from the Zhili area of the capital to quell the rebellion."
"And you, I have decided to let you formally inherit the throne of King Qi in advance, and then use you as the president to suppress the rebellion in Shandong!"
"Ah!" Zhu Xianyao raised his head and looked at Yunxi in surprise. He almost blurted out words questioning whether Yunxi had said the wrong thing, but his remaining reason prevented them from coming out.
According to the current news from the court, Zhu Xianyao's biological father, Zhu Shu, is organizing a rebellion! Then Yunxi actually asked Zhu Xianyao to be the commander-in-chief to put down the rebellion!
Not only Zhu Xianyao was very surprised, but also the other royal family members who were watching and did not leave were also surprised.
However, people with better brains like Zhu Jiye understood Yun Xi's intention after thinking about it for a while.
In fact, from a material point of view, this rebellion had little impact on the Ming Dynasty and Yunxi. Zhu Yuanzhang had accumulated such a strong family fortune. The loss of Shandong's money, grain and taxes this year or even next year was nothing.
But in terms of soft influence, it has a great impact. Zhu Shu's rebellion made everyone worry about the inherent shortcomings of the feudal system. It is no longer groundless, but has real examples. Since the news of Zhu Shu's rebellion, the court has There were no civil or military officials who said that Yunxi was too harsh on the royal family, which led to these rebellions, but countless civil servants either directly or indirectly raised the issue of the enfeoffment system in memorials, asking Yunxi to stop the enfeoffment.
Not only those who originally opposed the enfeoffment, but also many people who originally remained neutral or ostensibly supported the enfeoffment also submitted memorials like this. Now, except for people like Fang Xiaoru who firmly support the enfeoffment, everyone else in the court has shown that Opposition to enfeoffment.
Fortunately, 7's reputation as a Confucian scholar is very high, so he can still hold his position for the time being. However, Yunxi cannot let these people talk and remain indifferent. If he continues to say nothing, it is likely to be regarded as acquiescence by the civil servants, but It's because of the actions taken a while ago that it's hard to change immediately.
Therefore, if Yunxi still insists on the enfeoffment system, he must take some action to make the civil officials aware of his attitude. However, punishing the civil officials who submit memorials is not a good way, so Yunxi decided to let Zhu Xianyao take command to express that he insists on enfeoffment for 10,000 years. Unwavering. What better way to express your attitude than to trust the son of the rebellious feudal lord.
However, there is still a small problem with Yunxi's method.
After being stunned for a while, Zhu Xianyao said: "But brother, the person leading the rebellion now is my father. If I lead troops to fight against him, wouldn't it be unfilial?"
Yunxi smiled and said: "Who said it was Uncle Qi who led the rebellion? Is there any evidence? According to reports from Shandong, I have never seen Uncle Qi!"
"Uncle Qi is very brave, how could he be hiding in Qingzhou all the time!"
"It can be seen that this rebellion must be caused by the people below taking Uncle Qi to rebel. Uncle Qi himself was unwilling to rebel, so he was held under house arrest by them and never showed up in front of the army."
Yunxi did not know the actual situation of the rebellion in Shandong, but Yunxi decided not to blame Zhu Xi for the rebellion out of his own political considerations. This would show that the royal family was still as close as a family and there was no problem. Secondly, it would make Zhu Xianyuan There are no etiquette issues in sending troops to quell rebellion. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
