"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" King Zheng raised his glass and knelt down, and all the kings knelt down as well.
He grimaced in pain all over his body.
"Everyone get up!"
"This is a family dinner, there aren't that many rules."
"I punish you because I love you. If these mistakes are reported to the court, your title will not be saved!"
Zhu Qiyu pointed at them: "Come on, drink this glass of wine!"
The banquet used royal doucai cups, which cost about one or two taels per cup. They were all high-quality liquor. Zhu Qiyu drank six cups in a row.
The emperor drank six glasses of water, and the kings drank six glasses of wine.
Most people are drunk.
Being disrespectful in front of the emperor is also a serious crime, and the vassal kings can only endure it.
But I have to admit that the kings who have soaked in rouge and gouache as adults have a good drinking capacity.
Zhu Qiyu burped: "I'm so drunk that I'm already drunk, but I understand in my heart."
"This is the last drink of the day."
"Let's drink tomorrow!"
"Uncle King Lu."
"You and Emperor Renzong are of the same generation, and are my great-uncles."
"Lu Fan has guarded Shandong for many years without any fault."
"Just now you told me that Yu Qian would return the sealed land deeds and shops to you, right?"
Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "This request is not excessive at all!"
"Who is Yu Qian?"
"He is just the Zhu family's dog. Uncle, you are the master of Shandong!"
"Why should he usurp the guest and rob the master of his things?"
"It's okay if you don't want this dog!"
"Pass the decree to order the Beijing camp to leave the capital and behead Yu Qian!"
Zhu Qiyu burped, as if he was about to vomit.
Hu Xi immediately received the signal and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, be careful. Yu Taibao saved the Ming Dynasty from danger twice. He is a hero of the Ming Dynasty. How can he be so humiliated? Besides, the Beijing camp is in the hands of the Taibao, and the capital's troops are empty. How to send troops to kill the Taibao!"
"Does that allow him to bully my great-uncle at will?" Zhu Qiyu shouted.
King Lu was sweating coldly. Why didn't his words sound like good words?
Yu Qian, he was a hero of the Ming Dynasty. The emperor had praised Yu Qian's achievements in the imperial newspaper countless times. Why did he call Yu Qian a dog in the blink of an eye? What do the people of the world think of him, King Lu?
He wanted to speak, but couldn't get a word in.
"Go kill! Go kill!"
Zhu Qiyu was so angry that he sat on the ground: "Is it useless for me, the emperor, to talk?"
"Uncle King Lu, I will give you a sword. Go and kill it yourself!"
"King Anqiu, King Leling, King Juye, King Dong'a, and King Zouping, all come in for me!"
"I give you swords, and you will be killed by Qian with random swords!"
"Take all your things back!"
"Rob!"
Zhu Qiyu supported the table and slowly got up. However, he failed to get up and fell down, revealing his ugly appearance.
But no one dared to laugh.
I always feel that the Qianqing Palace is inexplicably cold.
The six kings of Lu Fan knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I don't want those things anymore, I don't want them anymore!"
King Lu escaped in time, but he could not be caught in the wrong direction by the emperor. The fate of King Zhou was clearly visible in his mind.
"No more?"
Zhu Qiyu looked at him with drunken eyes and confusion: "Why don't you want it? It's all the property of your Prince Lu's Palace. It was given to you by Emperor Taizu. How can you not want it?"
"Where's Feng Xiao? Come over here and tell Yu Qian to kill him!"
"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao kowtowed quickly and secretly rolled his eyes. "Your Majesty, you've done it. Don't be too forceful, or others will see it."
Hu Xi wanted to laugh, but held it back.
Wang Wei came out generously and said sternly: "Wei Chen impeached Yu Qian for embezzling the property of Prince Lu. I would like to ask Your Majesty to trace the source and give justice to Prince Lu!"
King Lu was sweating coldly, and his words did not sound like good words.
The officials in the court cooperated and gave him eye drops!
“What is impeachment and not impeachment?”
"This is a family dinner!"
"Wang Wei, stand down!"
"I am the patriarch of the Zhu family. If someone bullies the Zhu family, I will take care of it!"
"Don't say that what Yu Qian sealed up was all the legitimate property of Prince Lu's house. Even if it was embezzled, I still have to speak for Prince Lu!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at King Lu: "Uncle King Lu, I know that you are quite virtuous and would not do such unscrupulous bad things! Right?"
"Yes, yes." King Lu nodded stupidly.
"Then it's all Yu Qian's fault!"
"They took away all the land and shops given to Lu Fan by Emperor Taizu!"
"You don't have to worry. After I kill Yu Qian, I will return everything to you. You are all blood brothers. I will make a few more princes to compensate you!"
"It's just a matter of my words to seal Shandong to you!"
With a wave of his hand, Zhu Qiyu wished he could grant the entire Shandong to Lu Fan.
King Lu kowtowed excitedly: "Holy God, Lord Lu is so grateful!"
"Uncle, there is no need to be busy thanking you."
"Carry the knife to chop and rob!"
"Kill Yu Qian!"
Zhu Qiyu chuckled and said: "Kill Yu Qian, and I will grant Shandong to you!"
It seems like he spoke his mind!
Zhang Feng and Wang Wei looked at each other, did the emperor really want to kill Yu Qian?
"but!"
Zhu Qiyu changed the subject: "The King of Lu established Yanzhou Prefecture, but why did your family's land go to Jinan Prefecture?"
King Lu was still immersed in the joy of the reward and answered correctly: "Your Majesty, my concubine Fu is a wealthy family in Jinan. The land in Jinan Mansion is her dowry and does not belong to the property of King Lu Mansion."
"If I remember correctly, it was recorded in the jade disc. This Fu family was born in a poor family. Because of her beauty, she was admitted into the palace by you?"
Zhu Qiyu asked him.
"This, this..." King Lu did not expect that the emperor would remember such a trivial matter so clearly.
He was in a daze just now. It should be said that the land was donated by wealthy households in Jinan to avoid trouble.
"It is recorded in the Yellow Book that in the eighteenth year of Yongle, Fu fled to Jinan with his father and brother and settled in Jinan."
"And you, in the 20th year of Yongle, asked the court to take the Fu family as your concubine. Later, in the third year of Xuande, the Fu family gave birth to King Zhu Taichong of Zouping. In the fourth year of Xuande, the imperial edict that canonized King Zouping mentioned the Fu family. As a concubine."
"You said that Mrs. Fu is a wealthy family in Jinan. Was her family rich before she entered your palace? Or was she wealthy after entering your palace?"
Zhu Qiyu's eyesight returned to clarity and his tone became sharper.
He had done enough homework and knew everything about the kings' families and their treasures.
King Zouping trembled when he was named.
King Lu didn't expect that the emperor had such a good memory that he could even remember his concubines so clearly?
"Your Majesty, I don't know when I got rich, but the fields are indeed recorded in Fu's name." King Lu said the wrong thing again.
"Is it in Fu's name? Is that yours? Or Fu's?" Zhu Qiyu's voice suddenly rose.
"this……"
"What is this? Answer me!" Zhu Qiyu suddenly shouted.
"Yes, it belongs to the Fu family!" King Lu regained his clarity after being shouted at, and quickly responded.
Zhu Qiyu stood up, his eyes like daggers: "One moment he said that the land belonged to the palace, and the next he said it belonged to the Fu family? Uncle King Lu, are you confused by drinking?"
"Yes, yes, Weichen is confused after drinking..."
Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu slapped his hand on the table: "How can you know the crime of deceiving the emperor if you talk nonsense in front of the emperor?"
"Wei Chen is guilty!"
All the vassal kings of King Lu kowtowed.
Zhu Zhaohui, the second generation king of Lu, was the only son of Zhu Tan. The five princes of Lu vassal were all the sons of Zhu Zhaohui.
"King Zouping, tell me, does the land in Jinan belong to your family? Or does it belong to the Fu family?" Zhu Qiyu was not going to let him go.
King Zouping trembled all over: "Yes, it's from the Fu family!"
"Your mother-in-law is good at running a business. In just thirty years, she became a very rich man in Jinan."
"It owns 300,000 acres of land, more than 600 large and small shops, and countless farms!"
"This Fu family has the Midas touch. Why don't I send the head of the Fu family to Beijing and let him take care of my business? Maybe in a few years, I will be rich all over the world!"
Suddenly, Zhu Qiyu shouted: "You still haven't told the truth!"
King Zouping trembled with fright.
"How can a group of refugees get a fortune like this? Am I a fool? Or are all the officials in the world fools?"
King Zouping opened his mouth and looked at King Lu, not daring to speak.
"It was robbed! It was taken!"
"Do you think I am Sima Zhong?"
"The inspector of Shandong Province reports every year that Fu, relying on the power of Prince Lu's Palace, has taken advantage of the Jinan Palace. Don't I know?"
"For the sake of my relatives, I didn't expose your old background!"
"I'm saving your face!"
"But you treated me like a fool! Is it interesting?"
Zhu Qiyu roared loudly: "Publish the decree, the whole family of the Fu family will be executed, the family assets will be confiscated, the title of the Fu family of King Lu's side wife will be abolished, and King Zouping will be demoted to a commoner!"
"Your Majesty, don't!"
King Zouping was frightened and kept kowtowing.
But Zhu Qiyu didn't look at him, but looked at the kings in the palace: "I dig out my heart and soul, and treat you as relatives. You must not know good from evil and treat me as a fool!"
"I am not Sima Zhong, nor am I Sima Dezong!"
"Drag him out!" Zhu Qiyu shouted.
Two eunuchs came in and dragged King Zouping out.
Lu Fan shivered.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
King Lu couldn't watch his son lose his title, so he quickly kowtowed and said, "Fu Shi is very good at business management, and borrowed the power of the palace, many of them devoted themselves to Fu Shi. Although the minister is King Lu, he can't control Fu Shi." Shi!"
King Lu pushed him clean and let Fu take the blame.
"Collect donations from the people?"
"King Lu, you are so brave. How is the Ming Law written? Haven't you read it?"
"And you went to Qianqing Palace to complain about Yu Qian's tricks?"
"Thank you for being able to figure it out!"
"Let me ask you, are you sure that the things Yu Qian took away belong to your Prince Lu's Mansion?"
Zhu Qiyu asked in a hissing voice.
King Lu heard the emperor's thunderous anger and trembled: "No, no!"
"You, King Lu, got it all by clever means!"
"Whose power does Fu rely on?"
"Are the people who donated their land willingly?"
"You, King Lu, are enjoying the status of Zong Lu in the clan mansion and the treatment of dragon sons and phoenix grandsons, but you are robbing the people of their life-saving money!"
"Do you still have a conscience?"
"Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
"He is also worthy of being honored today!"
"You still have the nerve to come in front of me and complain?"
Zhu Qiyu said in a sharp tone: "Password, the Fu family of Jinan, the three Yi tribes! Fu family, the side concubine of King Lu, banish the jade plate and grant death!"
"King Lu!"
"I ask you, you are a relative of the sinner and also a relative of mine. What do you think I should do with you?"
The emperor has gone crazy!
King Lu didn't expect that the emperor would banish the Fu family. Isn't that enough?
"Please, please your majesty, seize the title of King Zouping, and take Zhu Taicheng's family into Fengyang!" King Lu abandoned his troops to protect his chariot.
You can lose a king, but Lu Fan cannot be destroyed!
"Zhu Taicheng, what do you think?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Taicheng.
Zhu Taicheng burst into tears and wanted to scold the emperor, but he didn't dare to curse.
"My mother committed a crime, and I am willing to bear the responsibility!" Zhu Taicheng cried non-stop.
"Huh, I'm quite responsible for the descendants of the Zhu family."
Zhu Qiyu said disdainfully: "Publish the decree to take back the character 'Tai' from Zhu Taichong, demote him to a commoner, and never give him a title. The whole family will be taken into custody in Fengyang. Without an edict, he will not be allowed to leave Fengyang even half a step!"
Zhu Taicheng, no, his name is Zhu Cheng now, closed his eyes in despair.
But he didn’t dare to say a word!
He also has a father and brothers. If he says something wrong, the emperor will pacify Lu Fan!
Yu Qian's army is in Shandong, and Lu Fan will never dare to rebel!
Zhu Qiyu slowly looked at King Lu, and raised the corners of his mouth: "King Lu, are you satisfied with my handling of this matter?"
"Wei Chen is satisfied!" King Lu cried.
"Is the land recovered by Yu Qian guilty or not?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.
Why can't you get through it?
King Lu lay prone on the ground: "Yu Taibao acted according to the law, but the humble minister is guilty! Yu Taibao is not guilty!"
"Then what's the crime of slandering Yu Qian?"
Zhu Qiyu stared at him: "You know, Yu Qian is my most important minister."
"Let's not mention that he welcomed me!"
"I fought with him to defend Beijing and helped the Ming Dynasty fall!"
"At the beginning of this year, more than 300,000 people in Oalaju were on their knees. Yu Qian defeated 100,000 people in Oalaju in one battle. The Ming Dynasty achieved a great victory!"
"Pei Lun, the chief envoy of Shandong Province, was angry with me for causing chaos in Shandong, and it was him again who traveled thousands of miles to Shandong to stabilize the situation in Shandong!"
"Tell me, can you slander such an important minister?"
Zhu Qiyu stared at him.
"Wei Chen is guilty!" King Lu kept kowtowing.
"Public order, the King of Lu slanders important ministers and does not know how to restrain himself. The salary of the Lu vassal is suspended indefinitely!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at him: "King Lu, are you satisfied?"
"The humble minister deserves what he deserves. Thank you, Your Majesty, for making it happen!"
King Lu regrets it.
He had no idea that the emperor's tricks would force him to kill Yu Qian.
Who doesn't know that Yu Qian is the backbone of the Ming Dynasty, can you, the emperor, kill him?
I originally thought that the monarch and his ministers were in harmony, so they had to pretend to be in harmony, but the emperor opened his mouth and asked King Lu to kill Yu Qian, which confused King Lu.
He said a bunch of nice things again and was knocked unconscious.
As a result, he was tricked by the emperor.
Lu Fan lost a king, and the emperor won a great victory.
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Prince Lu, I am not only the patriarch of the Zhu family, but also the emperor."
"If I give you a chance, I will allow you to kill Yu Qian."
"Do you dare to kill Yu Qian?"
King Lu is frightened, are you trying to trick me again?
There are no doors!
"I don't dare!" King Lu was frightened.
"I don't even dare to kill people who robbed family property!"
"King Lu, you have really brought great embarrassment to Taizu!"
Zhu Qiyu turned to look at the remaining four kings: "Do you dare to kill?"
"I am a vassal king, and I dare not kill my ministers without permission!" King Anqiu and others grumbled.
"waste!"
"A bunch of trash!"
"Ashamed to be a descendant of Taizu!"
"How can we set up a vassal barrier against such waste?"
"Taizu's hard work has been wasted by you!"
"What's so scary about a mere Yu Qian? If you dare to kill him, I will directly issue an order to kill you with a knife!"
"What are you afraid of? This Jiangshan's surname is Zhu!"
"Your surname is Zhu! You are my blood relatives!"
The kings apologize.
Zhu Qiyu continued to go crazy: "If you don't dare, just don't dare. Just be a useless snack and disgrace your ancestors to save your own life, right?"
King Lu finally saw it through.
The emperor is mentally ill.
You have a grudge against Yu Qian. You kill yourself, but you always borrow a knife to kill others. What kind of skill is that?
The emperor's grandfather, Emperor Taizu, was mentally ill, and his uncle, Emperor Taizong, was also mentally ill. I heard that Emperors Renzong, Xuanzong, and Mobei Wang were not mentally ill. How come you inherited it?
I am stupid enough. When Yu Qian takes over the land from the feudal lord, he naturally exchanges it for the court. Could it be that Yu Qian can still keep it for himself?
Who would believe that this was not done with the emperor's permission?
He foolishly sought justice from the emperor, which was really stupid.
"Wei Chen is really scared. He just wants to feel at ease and save his life!" King Lu kowtowed aggrievedly.
"waste!"
"The older people get, the more useless they become!"
Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to look at him and looked around the kings: "Who of you says you are not useless? Stand up and let me see!"
The kings were obedient.
He was raised like a pig by Emperor Taizong, and he was afraid of being raised.
Even the brothers from the nearby branch are afraid of the emperor, let alone the distant branch?
"Humph, everyone in Lao Zhu's family has almost become a joke!"
"No one stood up!"
"Of all the kings in the world, there are nearly 200 of them, but not one of them is brave enough to fight!"
"I, the leader of the clan, must be heartbroken!"
Zhu Qiyu sat on the desk, exhaled the smell of alcohol, and pointed casually: "King Zhou, tell me, why?"
I just want to see a doctor!
The king of Zhou shed tears, but I still persisted because I didn't want to be impeached by the censor for disobeying the palace and losing the throne of the king of Zhou. That would be tragic.
Emperors Taizong and Xuanzong often cut down their vassals in this way because many of them lost their thrones due to disobedience in front of the palace.
"Wei Chen thinks that the kings are restricted to their fiefdoms, so they lack courage and courage." King Zhou said something about the wheel of a car.
Zhu Qiyu was not satisfied: "It seems that Wang Yi's knife chopped off the head of King Zhou and made him confused."
"Prince Ning, tell me!"
Prince Ning was crying, knowing that the emperor would name him.
He had a good drinking capacity. He had six drinks and was not drunk at all.
Now that I thought about it, the purpose of the emperor's order to the kings to come to the capital was to cut down the vassal, blatantly cut down the vassal!
It can be seen that King Zouping was cut off in one sentence.
As for asking about this bloody courage, the emperor probably wanted to use this as an excuse to keep the kings in the capital and not allowed to return to their fiefdoms.
"Prince Ning, what are you thinking about?" Zhu Qiyu's tone increased.
"Your Majesty, I am thinking about the answer."
Prince Ning said cautiously: "Wei Chen believes that blood and courage are innate and cannot be tempered."
"Furthermore, the kings have studied literature since childhood and know nothing about martial arts. Naturally, they do not have the spirit of bloody courage."
"If you are appreciating poetry and paintings, I know that among the kings, many princes are proficient in this art."
Prince Ning was smart enough and stopped the emperor from forcing the kings to stay in Beijing with his natural words.
"Can poetry and painting govern a country? Can it govern a country?"
Zhu Qiyu said coldly: "Taizu divided the kings into various places, not to be pigs!"
"Prince Shen, tell me!"
King Shen Zhu Jiyin looked horrified.
His father was Zhu Mo, the 21st son of Emperor Taizu. In the 22nd year of Yongle, he was named King of Wuxiang. In the 7th year of Xuande, he was named King of Shen.
When he was young, he lived in Beijing and was very afraid of Emperor Xuanzong.
"Your Majesty, I think Prince Ning is right."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes darkened: "You always act submissive, how can you manage Shen Fan? How can I rest assured when Luzhou is left to you?"
King Shen established a vassal state in Luzhou, Shanxi.
"Prince Qing, tell me!" Zhu Qiyu looked at Prince Qing Zhu Zhixuan.
King Qing's father, Zhu Zhuan, was the sixteenth son of Emperor Taizu. The line of King Qing's descendants was sparse. There were only two kings in this generation, one was King Qing and the other was King Anhua.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." King Qing was trembling as he spoke.
"What are you afraid of?"
"Don't you want to change your fiefdom?"
"Don't you like Ningxia? Do you want to experience the colorful world of the mainland?"
"Since you want to change your fiefdom, just tell the truth!"
Zhu Qiyu stared at him: "I don't blame you if you are wrong."
The more King Qing was looked at, the more he trembled when he spoke: "Weak ministers think that strong trunks and weak branches are weak, and all the kings in the world have no talents. Your Majesty can sit firmly in the middle..."
Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu slapped the table and stood up: "Am I jealous of the wise and capable?"
"You are my blood relatives. Only if you are capable can you help me!"
"Am I guarding my relatives every day like I am guarding against thieves?"
King Qing was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and confessed repeatedly.
"If you have to guard against thieves every day, why not just kill them with one knife?"
"Why go to all this trouble?"
"Is there shit in your head?"
"Emperor Taizu is such a hero, how come he has descendants like you idiots!"
"If I kill you, will I kill all the descendants of King Mobei in the future?"
"You want me to really be a loner?"
"How to maintain this country?"
"That's nonsense!"
"Mouth full of farts!"
Zhu Qiyu was furious: "Prince Qing, Prince Qing, you still want to go to the mainland to enjoy it, I think you should just eat sand in Ningxia!"
"Prince Qin, tell me!"
King Qin who was named really wanted to cry.
The King of Qin's name was Zhu Gongxi, and his great-grandfather was Zhu Cang, the second son of Emperor Taizu.
He and Zhu Qiyu are of the same generation.
He was junior, and he was a vassal in Xi'an. He should have been the leader of the kings in the northwest. Because he was junior, his two uncles, King Xingping and King Yongshou, always hindered him, which led to the loss of Qin Fan's prestige in the northwest.
"If Your Majesty wants me to be courageous, you also need to give me a chance!"
The king of Qin took the risk.
"How do you say it?" Zhu Qiyu became interested.
"Your Majesty also said that the vassal king is like raising pigs on the fiefdom, and the lives of the ministers are worse than pigs and dogs!"
King Qin dares to say anything!
But it reached the hearts of all the feudal kings.
"Even if I have talents, is there any use for them?"
"If you don't have it, why do you need to learn it?"
"Although I was born with a golden key in my mouth, and am the son and grandson of the Zhu family, and is a noble person, my life is actually not as good as that of a pig or a dog!"
"I don't want to recite poems, paint and play with women at home. I also want to make contributions!"
"But Your Majesty, can you rest assured?"
After King Qin finished speaking, he prostrated on the ground.
It was quiet inside Qianqing Palace.
Hu Hui glanced at the emperor secretly, "It's too big, it's ruined!"
You directly deal with a few people, beat them up, reduce their authority, and use the opportunity to reduce the vassal. That's it. You just want to play, something is wrong!
The vassal king was also watching. How would the emperor view these words?
Zhu Qiyu suppressed the disdain on his face, slowly walked down the steps, and helped King Qin with his own hands.
"These are the sons and grandsons of the Zhu family!"
"Prince Qin, what power do you want?"
Zhu Qiyu stared at him: "Tell me!"
King Qin was surprised. Is this another trap?
"I have said before, if I kill you, how will future generations think of me?"
"I really want to use you!"
"I sincerely look after the Zhu family!"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "King Qin, just tell me!"
"Wei Chen wants to protect one side for His Majesty!" King Qin tried.
This is also the thought of all the kings in the world!
Who wants to be a pig?
Who doesn’t want to have power and enjoy power!
But when kings have power, they will have ambitions. The same Tianhuang nobles, why are you the emperor?
Moreover, power is limited. If the emperor and courtiers have power, how can they be willing to give a share to the kings of the world?
"good!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at the kings: "Do you have this intention? Say it directly!"
The kings are ready to move.
But from the beginning of Emperor Taizong, he forced the kings to be raised like pigs. Because Emperor Taizong had a hard time getting started and was not in the right position, he was afraid that the kings of the world would usurp the throne.
As for the current emperor, it was King Mobei who was captured outside the Pass and was promoted to the throne by his ministers. However, King Mobei is still alive, and his accession to the throne is not very orthodox.
Such a person would be willing to give power to kings?
They couldn't help but think of King Zouping who was deposed from the throne...
This is another trap! absolute!
The kings did not dare to answer.
"All the kings in the world are not as numerous as King Qin!"
Zhu Qiyu praised: "Okay, the prince wants to be a pastor, I will give you this opportunity!"
“Now the court has taken over the Loop and built another Loop!”
"Since the prince wants to guard one side, I will move Qin Fan to Hetao."
"I allow you, King Qin, to participate in local government affairs!"
Zhu Qiyu thought that this was a happy situation for everyone.
Kick the vassal king to the border, deny military power, and move it out bit by bit. Sooner or later, all will be removed!
It not only exercises their ability to handle government affairs, but also uses them as a barrier without harming their harmony. When the Ming Dynasty's territory is large enough, they will be kicked to Africa and America to become emperors.
But.
However, Qin Fan was in a state of excitement.
"Your Majesty, you can't!"
King Xingping climbed in from outside the palace and cried: "Zhu Gongxi, what nonsense are you talking about! Are you the one who can decide the Qin Dynasty?"
King Xingping's name is Zhu Zhi, he is the uncle of King Qin, and his grandfather is Zhu Cang.
"Your Majesty can't listen to Zhu Gongxi's nonsense. He has no hair on his lips and is not practical in his work. He has read a few shabby books and just talks nonsense!"
King Yongshou Zhu Zhiqian climbed in: "Your Majesty must not listen to him. Qin Fan has no ambition to participate in politics. He just wants to live a peaceful life as a wealthy and idle man!"
King Xingping and King Yongshou passed through the era of Emperors Taizong and Xuanzong.
That experience smoothed their edges.
I even cry at night, why was I born in an emperor's family?
Let’s not talk about moving to the feudal state. We have to go to Hetao and suffer.
Let’s just talk about the emperor. How could he delegate power to the feudal kings?
He agrees, can the minister agree?
Do you still want Jingnan to happen again?
The King of Han's rebellion is still fresh in your mind. Do you want to do it again?
King Qin was also embarrassed.
He wanted to do something, but he didn't want to leave Xi'an. After all, Xi'an was the ancient capital, with an imperial air, and the Qin vassal was the head of the northwest kings.
Why go to that place in Loop and suffer!
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is talking nonsense. Your Majesty, please tell me clearly!" King Qin was also frightened.
But he didn't notice that Zhu Qiyu's whole face was gloomy: "Say it again!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" King Qin didn't want to go.
"Are you dissatisfied with the desolation of the Hetao, or are you worried that I am testing you?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" King Qin only repeated these words.
"I want to hear your true words." Zhu Qiyu was unwilling to give in.
He didn't want to kill anyone, especially the kings, he couldn't kill them all!
It would be great for the vassal king to continue to act as a barrier and a sandbag for the Ming Dynasty.
But they are forcing him to kill someone!
"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Bang!
Zhu Qiyu kicked him over hard: "I asked you to answer, but you asked me to forgive your sins. For what sins? Why should I forgive your sins?"
King Qin quickly got up and repeated these words: "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
Bang!
Zhu Qiyu kicked him again: "Here comes the knife!"
"Ah?" King Qin was frightened. Did the emperor really want to kill him?
The long sword was unsheathed and placed on King Qin's neck.
The cold blade made King Qin tremble all over: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Why is no one trying to persuade the emperor? I'm dying!
"Answer me!" Zhu Qiyu roared.
What's the answer?
King Qin had forgotten what the emperor asked.
But the knife seemed to be moving, so he thought quickly and said immediately: "Weichen can't bear the pain of the Loop. It's Weichen who made a mistake!"
"It turns out that I dislike the barrenness of the Loop!"
Zhu Qiyu exhaled: "Then you pick a place, where you want to govern, tell me!"
King Xingping and King Yongshou kept winking at him.
I quickly persuaded His Majesty to give up this idea.
If you really go to guard one side, the emperor will be the Qin Fan sooner or later. You are a prince and a pig, a pig that cannot have power!
The best way to save your life is to do nothing and become a pig!
But King Qin was afraid.
The blade was cold and cold. If it were scratched, you would be dead.
He has also killed people, and with a single stroke of the blade, nothing was left!
Looking at the emperor's stern eyes, you knew he was going to kill someone.
"Go, go to Jiangnan!" King Qin really wanted to go to Jiangnan and experience the colorful world. It would be best to go to South Zhili, which is rich and comfortable.
Snapped!
The back of the knife hit him hard on the forehead!
Blood flowed out.
King Qin screamed in fear.
"Don't scream!"
Zhu Qiyu glared at him fiercely: "Jiangnan Chengping, why do I need you to govern? There are so many scholars in the world, who can't govern Jiangnan?"
"You keep saying that Mu Shou is here to have fun!"
"It's a shame that I praised you just now, but all the kings in the world are not as good as you, King Qin?"
"Shit!"
"You are not even worthy to be a descendant of Taizu!"
Zhu Qiyu swung his sword and wanted to chop.
But he was pulled back by Hu Hui: "Your Majesty is a man of ten thousand gold, so you must not lose your temper."
"Old Master, look at it, it's only been a few years, and the royal family has turned into such a bunch of trash!"
"In front of all the civil and military officials, I was so ashamed!"
"I don't even have room to put my face!"
Zhu Qiyu pointed his knife at King Qin: "Get away, I don't want to see you!"
The King of Qin felt as if he had been pardoned, and crawled back. He really wanted to crawl out of the palace and never see the emperor again.
His face was covered in blood, but he couldn't feel the pain.
It feels more like fear.
"And you!"
Zhu Qiyu suddenly looked at King Xingping and King Yongshou: "You are all his uncles, why don't you teach him normally?"
"They say they want to be a shepherd and guardian, but they are actually just seeking pleasure!"
"What's the use of such a person?"
"waste!"
"They're all trash!"
"What a waste, it's a disgrace to Taizu!"
Zhu Qiyu was so angry that he threw the knife on the ground, walked up the steps, and said loudly: "I'm telling you straight, if there is anyone who wants to do something, want to be an official or a general, please come forward and tell me, I will help you!" "
"I don't doubt you!"
"I'm not afraid of you rebelling against me!"
"This is not to test you! It is my truth!"
"I only hope that you have the talent to support our Zhu family!"
Zhu Qiyu was heartbroken and sat slumped on the table: "Look at ordinary people's homes. Only when brothers rely on each other and support each other can the family business prosper."
"The Zhu family's family fortune is the entire Ming Dynasty!"
"Why can't you stand up, help me, and share the burden?"
The kings looked at each other.
Is the emperor really willing to delegate power to the feudal princes? Aren't you afraid of rebellion by the feudal lord?
how can that be possible?
Since Jianwen, all dynasties have been cutting down vassals, and you are not clean either. In the eight years since you took the throne, you have been cutting down vassals frequently.
Isn’t it what your lineage wants for the kings to become what they are today?
They all looked at King Zheng, King Huai, and King Jing, three close relatives.
King Zheng was also confused.
Does the emperor really give power? Or should I be a carrot and amuse everyone?
King Jing Zhu Qihao was eager to try.
Why is the throne passed down to you?
My father, Zhu Zhankuo, is the sixth son of Emperor Renzong.
You are a bastard, my father is also a bastard, and we are both a grandfather. Why can’t our team have power?
"King Jing has something to say?" Zhu Qiyu saw Zhu Qihao.
This boy is not honest. He was the one behind the whole treasure that devoured King Xiang's lineage.
"The humble minister has nothing to say." King Jing was so evil that he let the other kings take the lead and reap the benefits. Anyway, they were close relatives, so they got the advantage first.
"None of the kings want to have a heart-to-heart relationship with me."
"That's it!"
Zhu Qiyu was a little unmotivated: "The hunting in Nanyuan will be canceled tomorrow. The kings can go back to their mansions to rest. I will hold a family banquet tomorrow and we will still be here in Qianqing Palace!"
I originally planned to go hunting in Nanyuan and go boating on Taiye Pond.
Cancel all.
It's too dangerous. Nanyuan is full of woods and security cannot be comprehensive, so we simply cancel it.
As for rafting... Zhu Qiyu was worried that there would be black hands pushing him into the water.
It's better to deal with the memorials in Qianqing Palace.
This emperor is too tired.
The kings did not expect that this ended a bit hastily.
"Your Majesty, please leave!" The kings left one after another.
Zhu Qiyu left Hu Hui, Zhang Feng, Geng Jiuchou and others behind.
He also suppressed the anger on his face.
Acting is tiring enough.
"I really want to restore Taizu's system and give power to the kings." Zhu Qiyu ordered all the palace people to exit the palace and sighed.
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
Hu Hui's face changed sharply: "The rebellion of the King of Han is just around the corner, how can we not guard against it?"
"My old minister said something presumptuous. There are so many kings in this world who have disloyal intentions. If Your Majesty is a little negligent, I'm afraid he will get burned."
Zhang Feng, Geng Jiuchou and others strongly opposed it.
It is believed that the power of the kings must be reduced and the branches strong and weak, so that the center can be stable.
Zhu Qiyu stared at the map and said quietly: "We can't lock them up in the capital for the rest of our lives."
The ministers were speechless.
If you want to talk about ruthlessness, you still have to look at the emperor!
They thought that by ordering the kings to come to the capital, they would just do some beatings and take advantage of the situation to cut down the feudal vassals.
The emperor did not intend to let them return to the fiefdom, and kept them all in the capital to keep an eye on them.
What I said before are all lies?
We all believed it!
"It would be more dangerous if we let them go outside the Great Wall. If we unite with Mobei and carve up the mainland, wouldn't it be even more of a headache for me?" Zhu Qiyu sighed.
hiss!
You are still ruthless!
No wonder you don’t have a son, the reason has been found.
Everything you say before you dare to love is just fart.
The key is that this is the Zhu family's business. It is not convenient for outsiders like them to speak.
"Your Majesty, will you really invite King Mobei to meet with the kings tomorrow?" Hu Hu frowned.
"nature."
Zhu Qiyu nodded lightly: "We are all a family, so we naturally want to meet them. The Queen Mother will also attend."
Hu Xi's face changed slightly: "Do you need me to accompany you?"
This sentence moved Zhu Qiyu: "No need to bother the old lady, I can handle this small scene."
"My lords, you have been tired for a whole day and have been acting with me for half a night. You must be very tired."
"But, hold on for a few more days!"
"I have no intention of dealing with the political affairs of the previous dynasty now. You and other cabinet ministers should cooperate more with the Supervisor of Ceremonies and the Military Aircraft Department. You can just sum up all the memorials and deal with them."
Zhu Qiyu said: "My lords, thank you for your hard work."
"Being loyal to Your Majesty is the duty of all ministers." Hu Chong kowtowed.
"That's all I tell you, go and rest."
Send away the important ministers of the cabinet department.
Zhu Qiyu stared at the map in trance. The resistance to moving the feudal vassal was too great. The kings did not agree, and he was not at ease.
"The Ministry of Industry has announced that a large house will be built outside Fucheng Gate. It will be built according to the specifications of the royal palace. Don't put it up for the time being, and don't make any claims to the outside world."
Zhu Qiyu paused: "Duo Duojian, tell Shi Pu not to spread the news."
Simply build a hundred palaces outside Beijing.
Trapped all the kings in the world in the capital, and then find a way to solve it.
"The order was sent to Yu Qian to plow Shandong quickly and wait for the Bai Qian and Beiwei armies to arrive in Shandong. After the two armies arrived in Shandong, Yu Qian led his army north to garrison Liaodong Capital Division."
"Tell Yu Qian that King Lu's slanderous words cannot deceive me. What he did was ordered by me. I know it well, so don't worry."
"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao knelt on the ground and sent someone to write a secret memorial and send it out.
Zhu Qiyu calmed down and rested his head after exercising.
Morning next morning.
Zhu Qiyu was absent-minded and did not handle some things satisfactorily.
The courtiers muddle along. When he went to court, Zhu Qiyu told Hu Hui to do his best to manage government affairs.
Please invite Hu Xi to work in the Military Aircraft Department.
After going to court, he sent people to Mobei King's Mansion to invite Mobei King to enter the palace!
Zhu Qizhen raised the corners of his mouth after receiving the imperial edict.
Princess Qian benefited from her miscarriage.
"Your Majesty, I'm going too!" Princess Qian's face was pale and pale, but she asked the maid to apply makeup.
Zhu Qizhen's expression changed slightly: "My dear concubine, you are not in good health. The imperial doctor said you should try not to work too hard..."
"If the child is gone, what's the point of living for me?"
Princess Qian's eyes were filled with blood as she stared at Zhu Qizhen with a firm tone: "I am the Princess of Mobei. He also invited me, but I insist on going!"
"This..." Zhu Qizhen was not worried about her health, but worried that she would ruin his good deeds.
Things are different now.
We can no longer act casually and talk about restoration as we did before.
Now, it is to protect oneself, to protect one's power, and to lie dormant.
During these days, Zhu Qizhen figured it out.
As he is now, he is no match for Zhu Qiyu. He simply lies dormant, like a roly-poly, letting him fiddle with and humiliate him.
He has no son, which is his biggest flaw.
Even if there is, can he reach adulthood?
Zhu Qizhen still has a chance!
So, just endure it now, endure it!
This was Zhang Fu's new plan before he died.
However, Princess Qian was upright and believed that the miscarriage was caused by the emperor. She was full of hatred. If she went to attend the family banquet at this time, she might cause some trouble.
Instead, the handle was given to the emperor, and the gain outweighed the loss.
"If you can't go, I will take the first step!" Princess Qian hated the emperor to the core.
She was originally a gentle and lovely person. When she was a queen, she cared very much for Zhu Qiyu. She loved to laugh at that time.
In the 14th year of Zhengtong, after the Tumubao Incident and Zhu Qizhen being captured, she began to change.
The smile is no longer there, I cry day and night, and one eye is blinded by crying.
And because he had been kneeling to pray for Zhu Qizhen all year round, he lost one of his legs.
Hard work paid off, and Zhu Qiyu was moved by her persistence and sent her to Nangong to reunite with Zhu Qizhen.
But during her time in Nangong, the smiles on her face gradually increased.
She thought she could see the moonlight by keeping the clouds clear.
After she failed to seize the door, she also complained about her fate, but a little life opened her heart. From the moment he appeared, she didn't hate anyone.
Even if Zhu Qizhen could never ascend the throne again, she didn't care.
She just hoped that this little life would be born soon and accompany her as she grew older, and that would be enough for her.
But!
Fate played a fatal joke on her, the child was gone!
Nangong said that she was frightened and led to a small produce. The emperor came that day and forced her to surrender the phoenix seal and gold book, so she was frightened, so the small yield!
She hates him!
I have nothing anymore, I have given you everything, why should I take my child?
Why?
Princess Qian's eyes are like blood: "Lord, this palace must go!"
This tone scared Zhu Qizhen.
I swallowed some guilty conscience, and nodded helplessly: "Go, just go."
