On the official road.
The founder of the Ming Dynasty, Duke Liang Guo Lan Yu, was full of murderous intent.
Zhu Yunxi's heart moved, and he waved his hand back.
The team that was about to catch up immediately slowed down and stayed quiet, hanging far behind the emperor's grandson.
Zhu Yunxi looked out at the murderous blue jade on his face, and sighed softly: "So what my uncle and grandpa did and said in front of Gu today must be based on this."
Lan Yu blinked: "That's exactly what the question says. Didn't His Highness have such concerns?"
Zhu Yunxi shook his head and sighed again: "Dong Liang is worried that the disappearance of his second brother is entangled with the White Lotus Sect and Shanxi Taoism. He is worried that he will use the power of the two to do things that cause trouble to the clan and the country. . Therefore, the Duke of Liang discovered the formation of Gu Zhi and asked Zhao to come forward. He shouted to kill and fight with his words, trying to put down the chaos between the two with great force and speed."
Lan Yu did not deny that her views on cripples had never changed.
Just like when he was in Beijing, he mentioned to the prince more than once that the elder clan kings in the clan who had become vassals might be in danger of being catastrophically suppressed in the future.
He just said calmly: "In my humble opinion, the various crises in the court and the local area, even if they are coming like a raging fire, are not as important as the stability of the country's crown prince!"
It was twenty-eight years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. I have witnessed the scenes of troubled times with my own eyes. I know very well that in troubled times, people are inferior to animals.
The humble minister is unruly and arrogant, but the humble minister dare not forget that the country must not be in chaos. Why is the country not in chaos? The humble minister is dull, but he often hears people say that he is at peace with the people and at peace with the government and people.
But Wei Chen also knows that if the royal family is not at peace and the country is unstable, there is no need to talk about the people's support, political integrity, and harmony.
His Highness was very poor in those years in the East Palace. There were many remarks outside the palace, but the ministers did not say anything. Now His Highness should also know about it.
Fortunately, your Highness may really be blessed by God. His Majesty's holy grace has taken care of you, and now you are carrying out the Hongwu New Deal as the grandson of the emperor who oversees the country.
Wei Chen is delighted, and there are countless people who are just like Wei Chen.
I have been fighting on the battlefield for decades, and I hope that one day when it will no longer be difficult to ride a horse or lift a sword, I can live in a mansion and enjoy the prosperity of the prosperous age.
It is precisely for this reason that I must not cause chaos in the country, let alone threaten His Highness's position as the crown prince.
Your Highness may not know.
If one day, His Highness, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, encounters a dangerous situation, countless people will risk their lives in front of His Highness to eliminate the danger, regardless of life or death! "
Zhu Yunxi closed his eyes slightly and pondered for a long time.
I don't know how long it took, but he slowly opened his eyes and sighed softly.
When Lan Yu said these words, he was no longer alone in the conversation with him.
But in his words, the countless people who were willing to risk their lives to stand in front of him to block the danger spoke to him.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes sunk and he whispered: "My uncle and grandpa are asking me to come here this time. The Marquis of Xiping must also know about it."
Lan Yu did not hesitate and said directly: "The soldiers and horses under our command are currently under the temporary control of the Marquis of Xiping."
This is the answer.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes became a little wandering.
Since the Marquis of Xiping is also involved, let alone people like Jingchuan Marquis Cao Zhen.
So, where was Fengyang City in Zhongdu where he was still a few days ago?
The six dukes and twenty-seven princes who survived the founding of Huaiyou probably had the same idea.
Unconsciously, a group that was so large that Zhu Yunxi needed to think carefully and weigh the pros and cons appeared in front of him.
This group supports him.
But what I support even more is the absolute legitimacy and justice he produced and brought.
What they support is also the status of them and their descendants.
Since the 24th year of Hongwu.
The moment he stepped out of Yingtian Emperor City.
A group created by myself quietly appeared without even paying attention to it.
perhaps.
He should be called the Taisun Party.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes flickered several times, causing Lan Yu beside him to watch quietly.
Lan Yu whispered in a timely manner: "Your Highness, now you should think about it. Behind His Highness, there are still countless people's wealth and lives, and the rise and fall of the clan that are at stake."
As he spoke, he looked back at the young cabinet minister who was riding on horseback and walking in front of all the officials.
Lan Yu smiled softly: "Perhaps His Highness has never noticed how many people in the government and the public, civil and military, would be promoted or demoted because of His Highness."
There was a smile on Lan Yu's face that would never have appeared in Hongwu twenty-four years ago.
Taisun Party!
Wen Zhi, cabinet minister, imperial junior division.
When Wu Zhi was the commander-in-chief of all the armies, the court discussed the title of king.
Under this, all the Xinxue disciples and millions of soldiers in the world belong to this category!
Not to mention those common people in the world who benefited from sharing the land with the peasants, uniting the officials and the gentry, and marching southward and eastward.
There are many enemies, but there are even more people who are willing to firmly maintain the existing situation and continue to promote Hongwu's New Deal.
This is the situation today.
Zhu Yunxi smiled helplessly.
"I have never thought that the world today is not the same as the Ming Dynasty in the past."
It's as if you don't know anything and suddenly one day become the richest person in the world.
And during this process, it seemed that he had done nothing.
Suddenly one day I discovered it.
He is so powerful.
Today I know who I am!
Lan Yu nodded, and the slight smile disappeared from his face: "The court has already agreed on the promotion of Duke Founding and Duke Cao to the title of king. I believe that in the near future, the court will issue an order to let the two of them be sealed before the official offices of the court this winter. Returning to the court. I would like to take advantage of the occasion of the two kings to celebrate the new year."
This is something that has long been decided by the DPRK.
It's just that the edict has never been revealed, and according to Zhu Yunxi's understanding, the two recalled imperial edicts have long been stamped with the emperor's seal and stored in a drawer under the red sandalwood bed of the two cubs in Qianqing Palace.
In another drawer on the side, there are two other imperial decrees for Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong respectively.
The reason why the recall order has not been issued until now is entirely because the situation ahead has not been calmed down.
The number of Eastern Expedition troops stationed in Yingzhou now exceeds 100,000. But in small Yingzhou, rebellions and uprisings by the remaining forces are happening every day.
There are hundreds of thousands of Eastern Expedition troops, and countless military incidents will occur every day. They will be concentrated in the Chinese army camp of the Eastern Expedition Army and handed over to General Li Jinglong for disposal.
The military situation is complex, military affairs are busy, and the naturalization of newly conquered areas is slow. This is a problem that requires a long-term process to be solved slowly.
This was true for the Eastern Expedition, and the same was true for the Southern Expedition, or even worse.
The naturalization of Jiaozhi Road and Champa Road has historical advantages, so it always seems to be smooth sailing.
But in the past two years, the imperial court has slowly smoothed out Jiaozhi Road and Champa Road and started to manage them like other places. The Southern Expeditionary Army, which continued its westward expedition, faced an increasingly difficult situation.
The complex terrain caused by the high mountains in the south seriously delayed the march of the army. The harsh environment can no longer be solved quickly and effectively by the imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital.
In a place where no one knows, there is a layer of archive racks in Wenyuan Pavilion dedicated to the Southern Expedition Army.
If it is found by people other than the cabinet members and the nine ministers of the imperial court, it will be discovered.
Now, the vanguard force in the Southern Expedition has been completely replaced by an army named Yingjun Camp by the Governor's Palace.
And this army has a battle-loss ratio that far exceeds ordinary people's imagination.
There is no doubt that this army is composed of surrendered troops from Yingzhou.
Whether they were willing or not, when the Ming Dynasty's ferocious Southern Expeditionary Army with guns and cannons stood behind them, they had no choice but to risk everything and launch wave after wave of fatal charges towards the front.
This is a top secret file.
Even the officials in the court who knew about the matter did not dare to publicize it.
This involves the justice of the country.
All of this illustrates the difficulties that the Southern Expedition Army is currently facing.
Therefore, the central government has been delaying the recall of Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong to be crowned kings.
Finally, it was decided to recall the two men and some meritorious generals in the army to reward them together this winter.
Zhu Yunxi chuckled: "That's why my uncle said today that even if the soldiers on the nine sides are temporarily without food, it will not cause turmoil in the military morale."
He glanced at Lan Yu blankly.
Lan Yu nodded: "His Highness's promises in the capital have now been fulfilled one by one. No one will doubt the words coming from His Highness' mouth. At least, after the day when Founding Duke and Cao Guogong were promoted to the title of king. , millions of soldiers of the Ming Army will firmly believe in following His Highness. Even if someone harbors dissatisfaction, they will be killed by the people around them for first-class merit!"
If there are no accidents, Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong will be two living signs representing Zhu Yunxi's promise as long as they live.
As long as the two of them are promoted to the title of king this time, it will be the goal that millions of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty hope to achieve.
High merit can lead to the title of king.
These were the words that their Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, said back then on the rugby field in Yingtian City in front of a group of military veterans.
Not long after, two people were promoted to the title of king.
Nothing can replace the impact this incident had on the officers and men of the army.
Zhu Yunxi looked back at Lan Yu, who looked very solemn: "What if he has no different intentions at all, and this time he was completely forced?"
Lan Yu's eyelids moved, but she did not speak. She changed from her eloquent style today and maintained the most restrained silence.
then.
Zhu Yunxi also fell silent.
Perhaps, if the White Lotus Sect had not taken action this time.
One day, people like Lan Yu will take advantage of them when they are not paying attention and take action to eliminate any possible hidden dangers and threats they think in their hearts.
This hidden danger and threat is not necessarily Zhu Yunwen, nor is it necessarily a certain person.
"Your Highness, I will help you mount your horse."
After a period of silence, Tian Mai, who was summoned by Zhu Yunxi, led his horse and chased him.
Zhu Yunxi got on the horse, looked at Lan Yu who was only half a body behind him on the horse, and looked away quietly.
[In view of the general environment,
Today’s conversation has nothing to do with anyone.
Just because of the huge benefits he brought.
Fame and fortune.
If you want people to be loyal, you must have one of them.
And what do you want to do?
Beware of the big tail that is difficult to eliminate, but also have a balanced approach.
This requires a lot of hard work and a long time.
But today, Zhu Yunxi felt a little alert for the first time.
"drive!"
After considering the current situation, Zhu Yunxi twitched his whip and shouted low, and the horse rushed out like an arrow from the string.
…
When someone is worried about the future of the empire and worries that the Taisun Party will kill another person without authorization.
The other person was lying contentedly on a soft couch by the window, showing an expression of great enjoyment.
The scenery outside the window is constantly ups and downs.
Sometimes they are tall trees, sometimes they are gray-yellow mud riverbanks.
Zhu Yunwen feels that he can now calmly enjoy the life of "being a rebel"
.
With just a few words, Liu Zongsheng, who had been riding in the small awning boat while hiding his identity, changed the boat into the large merchant ship with two decks.
Because Liu Zongsheng believes that the best way to hide what Zhu Yunwen said is to mix among everyone and walk openly under the eyes of the government. This explanation and reason are more correct.
Therefore, Zhu Yunwen now has a cabin on the top floor of this merchant ship.
"Erlang, this is the Qiu Lubai uploaded today."
Qiuniang put on a dress commonly worn by women in the gentry's family. She was decent and elegant. She placed a pot of wine and a cup on the table next to the soft couch.
Zhu Yunwen squinted his eyes sideways: "Shandong Autumn dew is white, pure in color and strong in taste, a good boy should drink it!"
After sighing, a look of loneliness flashed across his face.
Then he whispered: "It's just a pity...it's a pity..."
It’s a pity that good wine requires close friends, old friends, relatives and friends to drink it together to get the best of it.
Qiuniang frowned: "What are you regretting about Erlang?"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head: "It's a pity that it would be perfect if there was a plate of beef with soy sauce!"
Qiuniang immediately rolled her eyes.
Don't say that they are really on a pirate ship now, and they still need to keep a low profile.
Even if it is not a pirate ship, how can ordinary people often eat such precious things as beef?
In this world, it’s not like farm cattle die of illness, old age, falling, or who knows how every day.
Zhu Yunwen snorted twice and stopped drinking and having fun. He continued to think about how to help Liu Zongsheng complete the cause of rebellion.
He asked: "Where are we now?"
Qiuniang immediately said: "We just passed Suqian City last night, and the boat stopped overnight. Those people outside said this morning that they might not enter Shandong Road until tonight."
"Are you going to take the canal and continue north?"
The route of the North-South Canal emerged in Zhu Yunwen's mind.
To go north to the Shandong Road, you have to follow the canal all the way to the Yellow River.
Liu Zongsheng and others will probably disembark in Gucheng County, Hejian Prefecture, Hebei Province, and then directly enter Taiyuan Prefecture such as Zhending Prefecture and Jingjing County Jingshanyi.
Are they going to take them to meet Shanxi merchants directly?
Zhu Yunwen grumbled in his heart.
Then he looked out the window at the canal bank.
Lao San is such a smart person, he should be able to send someone to find him, right?
He certainly will!
