Lian Zining once advocated the reduction of vassals, but Lian Zining's idea of removing vassals was completely opposite to that of Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng.
It is advocated that the strong vassals such as Qin, Yan, Jin, and Ning should be eliminated first, and the weak vassals in various places should be won over and appeased.
It's a pity that Emperor Jianwen not only failed to adopt it, but demoted him to the local government.
In the end, Emperor Jianwen adopted the strategy of weakening the vassals first advocated by Huang Zicheng, Qitai and others, and demoted or killed weak vassals such as King Dai, King Qi, King Zhou, and King Xiang in just a few months.
Then, King Zhu Di of Yan was frightened by their fate, and quickly launched a rebellion under the banner of "Qingjun side, Jingnan trouble, restore ancestral system".
Tie Xuan was Zhu Di's biggest opponent in the entire Jingnan Campaign. He led his troops to defeat King Yan several times.
Until now, Tie Xuan is still clinging to Jinan and refusing to surrender.
If Zhu Di hadn't chosen to steal the crystal in a roundabout way, Tie Xuan would have killed him long ago.
In addition, Sheng Yong, Ping An and others are also first-class generals.
It's a pity that Emperor Jianwen did not let them play the main attack, but chose the Ming Dynasty God of War Li Jinglong to lead the line.
Looking at the entire Jingnan Campaign, it can be said that Emperor Jianwen perfectly avoided all the correct answers.
"Life is unpredictable, the big intestine wraps around the small intestine."
There was a big drama going on in his mind, and Chen Kan felt like his eyelids were fighting.
I don’t know where Zhu Di and Fang Xiaoru came up with so much to say. They obviously said before this morning that I and him were incompatible with each other.
"Chen Kan, Chen Kan."
Half asleep and half awake, Chen Kan seemed to hear someone calling him.
"Who?"
Chen Kan was angry, couldn't he let someone have a good sleep?
Then he looked up and saw Zhu Di and Fang Xiaoru walking in front of him at some point.
Chen Kan was so excited that he quickly stood up and handed over his hands indiscriminately: "Chen Kan, a common man, thank you..."
Well, didn’t you just bow to me when you came here? Why do you have to bow to me again?
He was confused.
I don’t know whether I still want to pray or not?
When Fang Xiaoru saw this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "The evildoer is so stubborn that the prince is laughing at him."
"Haha, it doesn't matter. I think Mr. Fang's beloved disciple has a good character. He has been homeless for half his life, but he can still maintain an innocent heart. It's rare."
Zhu Di smiled and waved his hand, indicating that Fang Xiaoru was fine.
Then he said to Chen Kan: "Chen Kan, back then my father Chen Heng was implicated in the rebellion of General Lan Yu and died in prison.
To be honest, when I first heard the bad news, I felt extremely sad.
I think back then, my father was also a hero of his generation, but in the end he made a mistake and ended up like this. "
Zhu Di said and started to improve his acting skills again.
His face was full of regret, as if he really regretted Chen Heng's death.
Even Zhu Di acted, and Chen Kan turned a blind eye.
He could only respond with a sad face: "Yes, father, you are confused."
Seeing that Chen Kan was getting involved in the drama, Zhu Di said: "This time, I promised you that I would ensure your prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life. Logically speaking, you should be allowed to inherit the title of Marquis of Puding."
At this point, Zhu Di paused for a moment, then changed his voice and said: "However, your father's title was taken back by the emperor Taizu, so it is not easy for me to disobey the order of the late emperor."
Hearing the word "but", Chen Kan couldn't help but rolled his eyes vaguely.
Damn, I knew there would be a but.
Zhu Di continued: "We will discuss the title issue later. I have made the decision now and will return the old residence of Puding Marquis to you. Are you willing?"
"Um?"
Chen Kan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Yes, that's too willing, okay?
If you can't get a title, it's not bad to get a house.
In the memory of the original owner, although Pudinghou's mansion was not as luxurious as the houses of the six great princes in the early Ming Dynasty, it was still one of the first-class mansions in Jinling City.
For fear that Zhu Di would regret it, Chen Kan quickly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness..."
"Lon? This statement is quite new. Hahahaha..."
Zhu Di suddenly laughed.
But Chen Kan's almost flattering words made Fang Xiaoru beside him so angry that he blew his beard and stared.
Pointing at Chen Kan, he said, "You bastard, I've learned all the etiquette I teach you in the dog's belly, right?"
"Hahahaha, young man, sir, don't be too harsh."
Zhu Di smiled and helped Chen Kan out.
"What a shame, why don't you go back with me?"
You can go back, you should have told me earlier!
Chen Kan followed Fang Xiaoru obediently, and Zhu Di sent the two of them out of the house.
Then, Chen Kan once again experienced the feeling of being in the clouds.
When King Yan's guards sent the master and apprentice to the door of Fang Xiaoru's mansion, it was already dark.
Chen Kan suddenly realized that he had experienced so many things in one day in Daming.
Fang Xiaoru's house is located on Datong Street in Nancheng. The house is not big, and can even be said to be a bit crude.
The paint on the door is in pieces, and weeds are sparsely scattered on the wall.
Fang Xiaoru said with a complicated expression: "Let's go home."
Crunch—
The old wooden door was pushed open, and what you could see was a simple but clean courtyard.
In the small courtyard, a gray-haired woman was cleaning the yard.
The door was pushed open and the woman turned her head. After a moment, tears fell from her eyes.
She didn't cry loudly, she just stood there crying silently.
"Mother Zheng, I'm back."
"Student Chen Kan, please pay your respects to the master's wife."
As soon as Fang Xiaoru and Chen Kan spoke, the woman quickly wiped away her tears, threw away the broom in her hand, and came to them.
He took Fang Xiaoru and Chen Kan's hands and said in a trembling voice: "Master, Yuansheng, are you back?"
"It'll be good if you come back, it'll be good if you come back."
The woman was a little incoherent, and her red and swollen eyes showed that she had been crying for a long time.
This person is Fang Xiaoru's wife, Mrs. Zheng, who was also his original wife.
At the same time, two young men also ran out of the room.
The two fell to their knees on the ground, crying and shouting: "Dad, the child is unfilial."
"Zhongxian, Zhongyu, my father is back."
The two are Fang Xiaoru's eldest son, Fang Zhongxian, and his second son, Fang Zhongyu.
When Fang Xiaoru was arrested and imprisoned, the two of them were studying abroad.
There were only Fang Xiaoru and Chen Kan in the family, so they were able to avoid jail.
But Chen Kan knew that Fang Xiaoru's two sons and two daughters were also strong-tempered people.
In the original historical time and space, when Fang Xiaoru was sentenced to death by ten clans, Fang Zhongxian and Fang Zhongyu hanged themselves to death, while their two married daughters committed suicide by throwing themselves into the Qinhuai River.
"Get up, everyone."
Fang Xiaoru helped his two sons up. Chen Kan quickly stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "First senior brother, second senior brother."
"Junior brother, I'm sorry for you."
"I'll cook for you."
Mrs. Zheng burst into tears of joy and headed towards the woodshed in a hurry.
Fang Xiaoru, father and son, hugged each other and cried.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Kan couldn't help but feel sad.
Today is really not easy.
If he hadn't been able to deceive him, I'm afraid they wouldn't even have a chance to cry.
Well, it’s all my fault, and you all should thank me!
