Shi Heng stepped back from the brink and handed over the general power.
This is a good thing for Shi Biao...
At the very least, he would not have to die, and his family would not have to be exiled or bullied. As long as he finds the right position in the future, is loyal, and makes contributions to the Ming Dynasty, he will not only be able to save his own family, but also Shi Heng's family and friends. Two sons, and the wealth of the entire clan.
Of course, after Shi Biao read the secret letter, he had given up the idea of protecting Shi Heng's life...
Even though His Majesty the Emperor wants Shi Heng to live, he wants to let Shi Heng die. For the sake of the court's laws, for the majesty of His Majesty, and for the prosperity of the entire Shi family, he is willing to personally kill his uncle who trained him...
Zhu Jianshen, who was sitting in front of the imperial court, sighed softly after listening to Shi Biao's words.
Of course he knew what Shi Biao was thinking.
He also knew that if he wanted Shi Heng to guard the island or be sent to the Americas, he was using clumsy means of deceiving himself and others. The reason why he did this was, on the one hand, because deep down in Zhu Jianshen's heart, he was certain of Shi Heng's achievements over the years. , on the other hand is the emotional care for Shi Biao.
But the safest way to do this is to let Shi Heng die...
"Shi Heng is your uncle. It is against the laws of nature for you to send him on his way. I think it is better to forget it and take him to the capital. I will allow him to commit suicide."
"Your Majesty, I am sending my uncle on the road just to comply with the way of heaven and to better warn the generals. When leading troops outside, they should do what they should and what not to do. It is not when the battle is defeated that they will be judged and punished. I am sending my uncle off. Going on the road is also a punishment for me. If your Majesty does not allow it, I will not dare to be a general..."
"Although Shi Heng is your uncle, he is just like your father. You are really capable of doing this." Zhu Jianshen asked.
"This is for national law and military training. No matter how much you are reluctant to give up, we must take action. I hope your Majesty will allow it."
After Zhu Jianshen heard this, he sighed heavily: "Shi Heng started his expedition from Zhennanguan, let him end it at Zhennanguan, and you can bury him in Zhennanguan."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, I hope that the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Inner Palace Supervisor will accompany me to Annan to observe the execution. I will take my uncle's head with me and circulate it to the three armies. I have already Zhen Xiaoxiao."
When Shi Biao said these words, his heart was bleeding.
He hoped that His Majesty would agree, but he also did not want His Majesty to agree. It was extremely contradictory.
He understood how his uncle led the army. Domineering and arrogant was synonymous with Shi Heng leading the army, while Shi Biao was a relaxed and measured person. In front of him, Shi Hengsong was a bit powerful, but after Shi Biao passed by, he could only use strict means to intimidate him. Many generals and soldiers can quickly control the situation.
This man became ruthless and played with his uncle's head. Do you dare to hesitate at all in the military orders he issued?
He didn't want the emperor to agree because he had feelings for his uncle. After fighting for a lifetime, the relationship between the emperor and the army was pitiful, sad, and deplorable...
However, after Zhu Jianshen heard this, he refused directly: "No need, just keep the whole body..."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Half an hour later, Shi Biao walked out of the Qianqing Palace.
His face looked as usual, and there was no clue, but deep inside, he was bleeding continuously...
In the end, he still had to send his uncle away with his own hands.
After leaving the palace, Shi Biao did not return to his own mansion, but went to Wuyang Hou's mansion.
I met my two silly brothers.
Shi Heng's two sons were both born to his first wife, and they have been treasured since childhood. In addition, Shi Heng has been fighting all year round and has neglected discipline. As a result, the two sons are now pure second generation ancestors who are neither good at literature nor martial arts. Just, I spend every day in the capital looking for flowers and willows...
Then Shi Heng met with his aunt.
Most honorable families have intermarriages with the royal family and within their families.
Shi Heng's wife, Zheng, also came from a wealthy family, the Wu'an Hou Mansion in Nanjing, and was the biological sister of Zheng Hong, the current Wu'an Hou. Back then, Wu'an Hou also served as a general in Datong, and Zheng Hong immediately took a liking to Shi Heng's rising star. So he married his sister to him.
Of course, the current Marquis of Wu'an had taken a temporary post to cultivate as early as the eighth year of Zhengtong, and now lives in Yingtian Mansion...
Zheng was also quite happy to see Shi Biao return to the capital, but she did not notice anything strange about Shi Biao. She only thought that Shi Biao was a little tired when he rushed back to the capital from North Korea, so he was absent-minded...
Kaifeng Zhouwangfu.
Xu Youzhen has been in Kaifeng for more than two months.
For the sake of the new tax system, and for the sake of the King of Zhou, Xu Youzhen took the initiative in everything, talking to this person, talking to that person, coaxing and intimidating, and finally made many clans agree to obey the imperial decree and consciously abide by all the regulations of the new tax system. Regulation……
This made Xu Youzhen a little tired, but he didn't waste a moment. He went to Prince Zhou's Mansion today to see him to say goodbye.
King Zhou still entertained him warmly as before. Zhu Zizhen was really grateful that Xu Youzhen did not let himself come out to offend the feudal clan during his more than two months in Kaifeng.
According to the plan, the clan of the King of Zhou donated more than 300,000 acres of fertile land and restored the household registrations of more than 20,000 households of tenant farmers. The land they donated was personally inspected by Henan Governor Li Bing and distributed to these people. There are more than 20,000 households.
During this period, Xu Youzhen's actions had caused an uproar in the clan.
King Qin's congratulations made them very embarrassed, but embarrassment was embarrassing. As long as they pretended not to see it, the only one who couldn't hear the embarrassment was the court.
But it’s different now. There’s no point pretending you can’t see or hear.
The imperial court is going to send someone to mess with you...
Of course, this also gave many princes ideas.
Zhu Qiyu, who was in Shandong, still had an impression of Xu Youzhen at the moment he was imprisoned. As the emperor's uncle, he wrote a letter to Zhu Jianshen and impeached Xu Youzhen.
Of course, this letter was ignored by Zhu Jianshen. He neither blamed his uncle nor told Xu Youzhen.
The new tax system and the abolition of some privileges of vassal princes actually have little to do with Zhu Qiyu. His four sons are still young and do not have much local property. No matter how the new tax system is implemented, it will not affect him.
He only wrote the letter because he was simply afraid that the treacherous ministers would harm the country and the emperor would hurt the clan's heart...
After Xu Youzhen left Zhou Wangfu, she headed non-stop to Qufu, Shandong.
There is a Lord there who is more difficult to deal with and whom he is not willing to deal with.
Menda has arrived in Qufu ahead of schedule.
As for the secret letter from His Majesty that Xu Youzhen received a few days ago, His Majesty the Emperor did not explain it clearly, but Xu Youzhen could not pretend not to understand.
A person that no official wants to offend.
He was going to have a fight.
