Chapter 16 Supervising the Country
Xie Jin said: "Your Highness, except for him, no one can come up with this plan, or even think of it. I am even beyond the reach of this plan. Master He's plan is much more perfect than my idea. As long as you don't What's the problem? Even if His Highness can't go to Nanjing, it's enough to establish a country. However, I don't understand something."
Zhu Xiongying said: "What can't you figure out?"
Xie Jin said: "This plan is too perfect. It cannot be thought of in a moment. And it has only been more than ten days since the Lan Yu incident. How did Mr. He do it? In such a short time, he came up with such a perfect plan. plan?"
Zhu Xiongying's expression froze slightly.
This is a thorn in Zhu Yingxiong's heart.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to tell him about this big plan. Or is He Xi unwilling and intending to intercept it? .z.
Zhu Xiongying will probably never have the answer. But that didn't stop him from thinking about it.
Zhu Xiongying said: "Brother Xie, what do you think is my best solution now?"
Xie Jin said: "How should Shen Guogong deal with it?"
Zhu Xiongying said: "It has not been decided yet, but it is very likely that the flag will be sacrificed after the war begins. Let the world see the consequences of going against Gu."
Xie Jin shook his head and said: "Your Highness, this is the time to employ people. After all, Shen Guogong is a hero of the country, and now he is killed for this matter. How can the people of the world look at your Highness, let alone the people in the world who are loyal to Your Highness and those in Nanjing?" Are there more people sitting in seats? Or are there more people vacillating?”
Zhu Xiongying said: "Of course there are many people who are undecided."
Zhu Xiongying understood very well that for most people in the world, who becomes the emperor is not important to them. What is important is to bring them a stable life. It’s normal for most people to be just fagots.
Xie Jin said: "If His Highness wants to win the big position, the first priority is to win over people's hearts. First, we must emphasize His Highness's identity as the legitimate eldest son, and then treat others with tolerance and care for others, so that the people of the world know that as long as they support His Highness, let bygones be bygones." Only in this way can we attract as many people as possible.”
Zhu Xiongying nodded, and at the same time he understood why Jie Jin wanted to slander Zhu Yunwen for regicide from the beginning. This is to suppress Zhu Yunwen's legitimacy.
However, Zhu Xiongying immediately frowned and said, "It's just that if Duke Shen is not punished, how can the world know about Gu's majesty?"
Xie Jin said: "Isn't that the right person? The favor comes from above."
Zhu Xiongying pondered these four words carefully.
Gratitude comes from the top, these four words are very simple. But it's not simple. This gave Zhu Xiongying a chance to establish his own authority. Generally speaking, it was to let He Xi be the bad guy and him to be the good guy.
He Xi has too many things to do, how can he not offend others?
Even in Beijing, Liaodong has absolute authority. But that doesn't stop him from having opponents.
Just like Shen Guogong.
Shen Guogong has been operating in Beijing for a long time. As long as Shen Guogong is saved, even if Shen Guogong's property is exploited and the title is taken away. As long as Deng Zhen is preserved. Zhu Xiongying has enough manpower on hand.
The person who punished Shen Guogong was He Xi, and the person who saved Shen Guogong's life was Zhu Xiongying.
In this way, Zhu Xiongying would be the one to check and balance He Xi.
Even if these people are not needed for the time being.
Zhu Xiongying understands very well that now is not the time for internal fighting. Only by sincere cooperation will there be a future. But it is impossible for Zhu Xiongying to suddenly realize that one day in the future he wants to deal with He Xi, but cannot.
This is Zhu Xiongying's hidden worry all the time.
And Jie Jin was like a roundworm in Zhu Xiongying's belly. With just one sentence, he gave Zhu Xiongying a solution. Although this solution is still crude, it at least gives Zhu Xiongying a direction.
Suddenly Zhu Xiongying had a backbone.
------
In just two days, the Beijing camp had been integrated.
He Xi is already preparing for Zhu Xiongying's supervising ceremony.
But Zhu Xiongying suddenly called him over. He Xi was here with Zhu Xiongying.
I saw two people there, naturally Shen Guogong, Deng Zhen, and Xie Jin.
He Xi was stunned, with countless thoughts churning in his mind.
Zhu Xiongying said: "Uncle, Uncle Deng already knows that he was wrong. Now his title is gone and his family property has been confiscated. Whether he can show his superiority or not depends on the face of his father."
He Xi had no intention of killing Deng Zhen.
Without him, the rabbit will die and the fox will be sad.
Killing Deng Zhen is easy. But Deng Zhen is not alone. Killing Deng Zhen will put the sins of Shen Guogong to death. What will Cao Guogong Li Jinglong think? What does Duke Muchun of Guizhou think? Although they are not a collective, Beijing can still be regarded as a trend towards Xun Chen.
Therefore, Deng Zhen’s handling must be cautious.
This doesn’t mean you can’t kill. But consider the pros and cons carefully.
At least He Xi has no intention of attacking Deng Zhen now. Otherwise, how could Zhu Xiongying fish out Deng Zhen so easily?
But what Deng Zhen said was as if He Xi wanted Deng Zhen to die.
However, He Xi also had some speculations about Zhu Xiongying's plans. He also expected this situation. He glanced at Xie Jin. He said: "Your Highness has spoken, how can I disobey you? It's just rebellion. If it is not punished, I'm afraid it will be more effective in future generations. I think that Deng Zhen can follow Your Highness for free. If he has meritorious service in the future, he will not be promoted. But now Inappropriate."
He Xi was going to clean up the army, and among the northern army, Shen Guogong was the biggest leader. It happened to be taken down at this moment, how could we not make use of it. Therefore, Deng Zhen can live, but now he cannot hold any official position.
At least that was the case until He Xi cleaned up and integrated the army.
Zhu Xiongying himself has no intention of using Deng Zhen now. Zhu Xiongying was just reserving manpower for the future. After all, even if Shen Guogong died, the generals under Shen Guogong would naturally not die either. These people can all be used by Zhu Xiongying.
He even showed his kindness to the nobles. After all, Shen Guogong captured him, but he was still tolerant, and how Zhu Yunwen treated Lan Yu.
Not to mention Lan Yu's own fate, most of the honorable ministers who followed Lan Yu were guilty of crimes that would not lead to death.
The two have completely different styles of acting, just to let the world see who is worthy of being the master of the world.
From this point of view, Lan Yu's fatal bite of Zhu Yunwen gave Zhu Xiongying a great advantage.
Zhu Xiongying said: "That's natural."
He Xi said: "Your Highness, Beijing has been cleared. It's time to supervise the country."
Zhu Xiongying said: "Okay."
When things have reached this point, there is no turning back.
In fact, it goes without saying that He Xi, after a fight in Beijing, many people had this realization. Now it's just a certainty.
As a result, the Beijing Imperial Palace opened its main entrance. Tens of thousands of soldiers lined up in the large square in front of the palace, and all civil and military officials from Beijing arrived. Although Beijing is also the capital. But in terms of the number of officials, it is far inferior to Nanjing.
However, with these soldiers filling the place, it didn't feel shabby.
The three main palaces in Beijing were built based on those in Nanjing. The specifications are spot on.
The only difference is the wood.
The three main halls in Nanjing are naturally made of pure wood. But the three main halls in Beijing are not. The pillars in the three main halls are all cement pillars. Of course, the cement pillars are the core, and the outside is wrapped layer by layer with gauze, and then painted layer by layer with bright red paint.
Finally, looking at the finished product, as long as you don’t cut it open, you can’t tell that it is a cement column.
Situations like this can be seen everywhere in the Beijing Imperial Palace.
From this perspective, many architectural details of the Beijing Imperial Palace are more similar to some film and television cities.
But no one cares about that now. Even these technical details are advanced and fashionable in this era.
However, no one expected that these three halls would be opened so quickly.
In fact, when the Beijing Imperial Palace was being built, should the three main halls be repaired? What specifications will it be built to? There is a debate. The so-called three main halls are the main hall of the palace, which are locked and unused most of the time. Only in the emperor
The emperor's wedding, enthronement, and other important ceremonies will only open the door for use.
As a companion capital, many people believe that Beijing is almost impossible to use. Although in the end, He Xi decided not to use it, but it had to be repaired. Of course, He Xi is sure of it.
These three halls will definitely be used. Maybe the three main halls in Nanjing will no longer be used in the future.
