Chapter 8 Fang Xiaoru’s worries
Fang Xiaoru said: "Your Highness, your Highness is in charge of matters in the capital, and Duke Ying is helping you. Lan Yu is arrogant, so there should be no problem. It's just that I'm worried about Beijing. He Xi is not an easy person to deal with. Your Majesty, you still remember, Mie In the Battle of Goryeo, He Xi spent several months to enslave the King of Goryeo. Although Shen Guogong Deng Zhen was in a high position, he had sent troops to fight, but except for training, he had never been on his own. I am worried that he is not He Xi. opponent. In my opinion, it would be better to ask your Majesty to order the transfer of King Wu back to the capital."
In Fang Xiaoru's eyes, He Xi is a very difficult person to deal with. Although Fang Xiaoru also hoped to capture He Xi, Fang Xiaoru was not used to it if He Xi could be captured easily. He subconsciously felt that this might not be safe.
"No." Ding Xian said, "We must not let King Wu return to the capital."
Fang Xiaoru said: "Master Ding, do you think He Xi is easy to deal with?"
"No," Ding Xian said, "I also think He Xi is difficult to deal with. Deng Zhen is like a guard dog. He may not be able to defeat He Xi. But Mr. Fang, when King Wu returns to the capital, what will the world think? Lan Lan Jade is just outside the city. If King Wu is here, do you really want to experience a Xuanwumen revolution in the capital?"
"It's better to leave King Wu outside. When His Majesty's mausoleum collapses, let him attend the funeral. By then, the overall situation has been decided. What kind of trouble can King Wu make?"
After Zhu Yunwen heard this, he was horrified and said, "That's right. It's best that brother doesn't come back."
Fang Xiaoru said: "If Deng Zhen cannot defeat the King of Wu, what will happen when the King of Wu rebels?"
Ding Xian sneered and said, "I'm afraid he won't rebel."
Deep down in his heart, Zhu Yunwen also felt that Zhu Xiongying's rebellion was a good thing. Since ancient times, no feudal king has successfully rebelled. In addition, although Beijing controls the northern border defense. However, the northern garrison stations obeyed Beijing's orders because the imperial court ordered them to obey Beijing's orders, not because Beijing had any absolute authority.
Once Zhu Xiongying raises his troops, the only ones he can count on are the 100,000 elite troops from the Beijing camp.
The Beijing Jingying camp is certainly elite, but isn’t the Nanjing Jingying camp elite?
Both sides are elites. Nanjing has ten times more soldiers and horses than Beijing, and the generals, such as Ying Guogong and Song Guogong, can take command. And how many generals are there in Beijing?
What do you think? Even Zhu Yunwen cannot lose.
It's just that Zhu Yunwen thought this way, but didn't say it that way. Zhu Yunwen said: "Mr. Ding must be careful. After all, my brother and I are close relatives. I think my brother will never do this."
Ding Xian said: "Your Highness has a kind heart, but King Wu may not appreciate it."
Zhu Yunwen said: "No matter what you say, I can trust you."
Ding Xian didn't know how to deal with this.
Fang Xiaoru said: "When is Your Highness going to take action?"
Zhu Yunwen thought for a moment and said, "This month, it's better to do it sooner rather than later."
To be honest, Zhu Yunwen couldn't wait any longer.
Ding Xian said, "I'll make arrangements right away."

Jubaomenwai Street.
Outside Jubaomen is the dock of Nanjing City. From here, you can board a boat and enter the Yangtze River directly. This is the ancient Changganli, the place to say goodbye. Naturally, it is also a rare prosperous place outside Nanjing.
Xie Jin seemed to be taking a walk, walking among the shops on the street, when he suddenly came to a quality shop, looked around, and walked in.
As soon as Xie Jin entered, he was immediately led to the backyard.
A shopkeeper immediately came over and saluted and said, "Second Master, why are you here suddenly?"
This quality shop is the Xie family's industry. To be precise, it should be Xie Lun's industry. It's just that although the Ming Law has already stipulated property rights. But customs from ancient times are not so easy to dispel. Therefore, the industry here can also be regarded as Jie Jin's industry.
Xie Jin said: "I want to go to Dashengguan camp immediately, remember to hide it from everyone. And now send someone to Nanjing city to pick up my wife and children and send them to my hometown in the countryside."
The housekeeper was stunned and said: "Second Master, but
What happened? "
Xie Jin waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this. Go prepare the boat. The sooner the better."
In the past three years, Xie Jin's position in the Secretary's Supervisory Committee has been marginalized. It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang is still there, and the Secretary's Prison is an important place of the imperial court and a close official of the emperor. Zhu Yunwen didn't want to look too ugly, so he kept Xie Jin. At the same time, Zhu Yunwen also felt that Xie Jin was a talent.
Want to keep it for your own use.
If possible, Xie Jin actually doesn't care about changing his master. However, with Xie Jin's political vision, he could already see that the consequences of his defection to Zhu Yunwen would be to be eaten alive by Fang Xiaoru and others. There may not be a whole body when alive, but even after death, it will be stink for thousands of years and be stepped on by ten thousand feet.
After all, the political philosophy of Fang Xiaoru and others could not be clearer. And where is Jie Jin’s political foundation? He is the advocate of reform.
Under such circumstances, it's surprising that Xie Jin would end well.
Xie Jin wanted Zhu Xiongying to ascend the throne wholeheartedly.
In the palace, she consciously acted as the spy of He Xi and Zhu Xiongying. Although Zhu Yunwen blocked the news. But Xie Jin still keenly felt that Zhu Yuanzhang's body was dying. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's body was involved too much. I don’t know how much attention it will receive. If Zhu Yunwen wants to be impeached, he can't simply impeach, he must release false news. And these fake news can deceive him more than ordinary people. But you can't fool Jie Jin.
After all, Jie Jin had been with Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time, and he was one of the most intelligent people in the world.
After Xie Jin saw the clues, he realized that he was being watched. And this quality shop is the property of the Jie family, but it is very confidential. It was also the first time Xie Jin used it.
Xie Jin's plan is to let Lan Yu control the troops and horses of the Dashengguan camp. Then immediately send a message to Zhu Xiongying to go south. When Zhu Xiongying enters the Dashengguan camp, he may not be able to fight by then. After all, Zhu Xiongying is the eldest son.
If that doesn't work, it's possible to have a fight and seize the throne by force.
After all, Xie Jin had tasted the taste of power and was determined not to give it up, nor to return to the countryside to be a rich man.
The shopkeeper of Xie's family tried his best to arrange for Xie Jin. I just don’t know what’s going on these days. All aspects of the investigation in Beijing are very strict. It is not an easy task to send Xie Jin to Dashengguan camp without anyone noticing.
The only chance is to wait until dark.
Xie Jin didn't even bother to ask if his wife and children had been brought back. So he boarded the ship and went to Dasheng Pass.
But he didn't know that a group of people was already outside the Dashengguan camp at this moment.
------
Dasheng Pass is where Zhu Yuanzhang ambushed his troops and defeated Chen Youliang. This victory made Chen Youliang not dare to spy on Jinling easily, so he decided to go to Jiangxi first, and then attack Jinling, and then the fierce battle for Jiangxi began.
It can be said that Dashengguan was the place where the fate of the Ming Dynasty turned around.
It's just that the Dashengguan Military Camp was only built in the past two years.
Originally, Dasheng Pass had a military camp. However, there were not many troops stationed there. It was only after the Taiping Iron Works prospered that the number of troops stationed here gradually increased. After Lan Yu returned to the capital, senior officers like them should have stayed in the city instead of living in the camp.
But Lan Yu is always stationed in the military camp.
The camp near Beijing Camp was also adjusted to form Dashengguan Camp.
Dashengguan Camp is not one big camp, but dozens of large and small camps. They are located in the west of Nanjing and on both sides of the Yangtze River. Many of the camps are old camps left behind by Chen Youliang in the past. They can be repaired and repaired. use.
Lan Yu has been idle in the camp for a while. After all, a military camp is a military camp, and rules must be followed. For example, you can't take women with you, you can't gamble, and so on. According to these military regulations, if Lan Yu leads troops to fight, Lan Yu will just take it as a fart. After all, when fighting, no one knows whether he will live to see the sun the day after tomorrow. The psychological pressure is extremely high at this time. Just don't hold on too tightly. That's going to make the camp roar. But it's different near the capital.
There were countless people watching from above and below. At this time, no one dared to mess around. Lan Yu didn't dare either. So he focused on training soldiers. Start with pawns.
great victory
Guan's camp screams for murder every day. In terms of mental outlook, it should be the best army in the entire Beijing camp.
