Yang Xuan was grounded. Upon hearing the news, Huang Zicheng jumped three feet high with joy.
Yang Xuan is really too hateful.
He kept obstructing the reduction of the vassal state and said that there would be trouble.
Now that Zhou Fan and Dai Fan have been cut off, aren't they still fine?
Among the remaining vassal princes, who dares to treat the court as if it were nothing.
Huang Zicheng felt that his strategy was correct.
Although Yang Xuan also stated that he supported the reduction of vassalage.
But judging from his performance, Huang Zicheng was very doubtful whether Yang Xuan's words supporting the reduction of the vassal were sincere or false?
Don't forget, Yang Xuan has a very good relationship with Prince Yan, and Princess Yan is also his senior sister.
Yang Xuan has been obstructing the reduction of vassalage, which may not mean he has no intention of favoring King Yan.
Huang Zicheng told Zhu Yunwen his analysis and guess, and the latter also felt that it made sense.
But that was all. Zhu Yunwen did not lose trust in Yang Xuan because of this.
He just felt that Yang Xuan disrespected himself as the emperor too much, and sometimes even lectured him in the tone of an elder.
It's like...the emperor himself is still a child.
However, what I did wasn’t bad either!
From the very beginning, the tyranny of the late emperor's period was abolished, and at the same time, emphasis was placed on agriculture, building schools, inspecting officials, providing relief to the poor in disasters, and exempting people from taxes.
Next year he is planning to send young officials to patrol the world!
Can't we deny him just because he cut down the vassal vassal?
Zhu Yunwen was a little confused.
…
The thirty-one years of Hongwu came to an end soon.
The first year of Jianwen is coming.
Yang Xuan also ended his ban.
In the first month of the first month, Zhu Yunwen worshiped heaven and earth in the southern suburbs, served Taizu as his companion, and compiled the "Records of Taizu".
(Ancestor pairing: In ancient times, sacrifices were made with ancestors.)
In February, he honored his father Zhu Biao as Emperor Xiaokang, with the temple name Xingzong, and his aunt Chang as Empress Xiaokang.
Honoring his mother, his biological mother Lu was the empress dowager, and his concubine Ma was the empress.
His younger brother Zhu Yunxi was named King of Wu, Zhu Yunxi was King of Heng, Zhu Yunxi was named King of Xu, and the emperor's eldest son Zhu Wenkui was made the crown prince.
Yang Xuan looked at Zhu Biao's temple name with complicated emotions.
He finally became emperor, but only after his death.
That night, Yang Xuan drank a lot of wine and said many things to Zhu Biao's portrait in the study.
…
At the end of February, Zhu Yunwen began to cut down vassals again.
First, he issued an order to the kings not to control the civil and military officials of the palace. Then, in order to guard against Zhu Di, he ordered Song Zhong and Xu Kai to lead 30,000 troops to guard the Tunping and Shanhaiguan areas.
As soon as Zhu Di made any move, he would take action immediately.
On the surface, Zhu Di has now been deprived of military power and seems to have no choice but to be captured.
Prince Yan's Mansion.
Secret room.
Dao Yan only felt that the little emperor was so powerful that he already put a knife on Zhu Di's neck.
If you don’t fight now, when will you wait?
He looked at Zhu Di in front of him, organized his words, and said: "Your Highness, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court have surrounded Peiping, and their purpose is obvious."
"Your Highness, it's time to make a decision."
"Of course I know this, but...I really don't want to do this!" Zhu Di sighed.
"Your Highness!" Dao Yan was a little anxious.
It's time like this, what are you still worried about?
He really wanted to go up and knock Zhu Di on the head twice to wake him up.
"Master, I have decided to go to the capital to pay homage to the new king." Zhu Di was silent for a while and said.
"No."
"Today's capital is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den to your highness. If you go there, you may not be able to come back." Dao Yan was really anxious this time.
Just look at his expression.
｀Д´|
You are the one the little emperor wants to deal with, and yet you throw yourself into a trap.
"It doesn't matter, he wants to cut off my vassal, so I will go to the capital and let him cut it off."
"The most he can do is put me under house arrest in the capital, and his life will not be harmed."
Zhu Di waved his hand and said calmly.
Until now, no feudal king has been killed.
Otherwise Zhu Di would not have been able to make such a risky decision.
"Your Highness, you..." Dao Yan was so anxious that he almost cried.
As an investor, this investment target really refuses to listen to advice.
"The king has decided."
Zhu Di didn't let Dao Yan speak anymore.
The latter had no choice but to sigh in his heart.
He had decided that he still had to go to the princess for advice.
His Highness cannot be allowed to run to the capital like this.
It's a pity that Zhu Di can't persuade him to do what he has already decided.
Coupled with the current situation, Zhu Di could only take a gamble.
So not long after, Zhu Di left the capital.
Of course, Zhu Di was not unprepared at all.
He went to Hajj to see the emperor.
In this way, he does not leave the fiefdom without permission.
(When the new emperor ascends the throne, the vassal king should go to the pilgrimage to see him. We don’t know whether this rule is true or false, so let’s leave it at that)
…
At this time, the capital city.
Yang Xuan prepared some wine and meat, as well as some candle paper money.
Prepare to go to Zhongshan.
Since Zhu Biao was honored as Emperor Xingzong, he has not visited it yet, that is, in the study, looking at Zhu Biao's portrait and talking.
At the same time, Lan Yu was also guarding Zhu Biao's mausoleum in Zhongshan.
I haven’t visited much in recent years.
Take this opportunity to take a look together.
Arriving at Zhongshan, Yang Xuan first found Lan Yu.
Over the past few years, Lan Yu has aged a lot.
But my spirit is better than when I was in the capital.
Maybe it's because I don't have to get involved in those intrigues and have more time to spend with my family.
Treat your grandchildren happily and enjoy family happiness.
"Brother!"
"brother!"
The two laughed and hugged each other.
Lan Yu also beat Yang Xuan's chest twice.
Walking into their yard, it looks no different from an ordinary farm yard.
There are also a few poultry raised in the corner.
"Brother is living a very comfortable life."
"My little brother is really envious." Yang Xuan looked at it and said with a smile.
"What else can I do? Just live like this!" Lan Yu said.
Then he called his son out to accompany him.
Then he ordered himself, his wife and daughter-in-law to prepare food.
"Brother, there's no need to go to such trouble." Yang Xuan saw this and quickly stopped him.
"My little brother came here this time to see how you are doing."
"The second thing is to look at His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Lan Yu naturally understood who the Crown Prince was talking about.
Although it can no longer be called that.
But after all, I have been calling this name for twenty years, so how can I change it so easily.
"Okay, let's have a cup of tea and take a rest. I'll go with you later." Lan Yu said after a moment of silence.
"Okay." Yang Xuan nodded and did not refuse.
After resting for a while, Yang Xuan chatted with Lan Yu's family and learned that their current situation was good.
Afterwards, he and Lan Yu went to Zhu Biao's mausoleum with the tributes and candles and paper money for worship.
Since Lan Yu has been guarding here, he has also been cleaning up the surrounding weeds.
So it doesn't look like much dilapidation, just some traces of time.
Take out the towel you prepared and wipe the tombstone clean.
Then he and Lan Yu laid out the tributes and lit candles.
After doing this, Yang Xuan sat on the floor.
While burning paper money, he talked to Zhu Biao about the current situation in Ming Dynasty.
