Not long after Zhang Di left, the guards came to report to Zhu Wuyu again, "Grandpa Guo, the crown prince and Lord Zheng are here, and they are waiting for you in the living room at this time." ”

Zhu Wu smiled slightly, put down the book in his hand, and then got up and walked to the living room, and at the moment when he was about to step into the living room, he saw that Zhu Wu seemed to be a different person suddenly, and the original relaxed color on his face immediately disappeared without a trace, and he was replaced by a sad look.

"Your Highness, Lord Zheng, you are here." Zhu Wu said, although he smiled, it was obvious that he was just smiling.

Zhao Huan and Zheng Juzhong glanced at each other, and both sighed softly, it is reasonable for Zhu Wu to have such a reaction, speaking of which, Zhu Wu did not show anger at the moment It is a little unexpected for the two of them, after all, the emperor's reply to the third condition is simply too bullying, which clearly wants the Qishan army to be sent to death, in this way, the Qishan army, as the vanguard army and the main force of the operation, will definitely suffer heavy losses, as long as it is a normal person, it will not feel comfortable.

Seeing this, Zhao Huan sighed deeply with guilt on his face, "This ...... Brother Zhu, I'm sorry, this king can only fight for you to this point. ”

Zheng Juzhong also hurriedly added, "Wu Guogong, you also have to be considerate of Your Highness, the obstruction from King Yun and others is too great, Your Highness has spared no effort to fight for your reasoning, to be honest, it is not easy to have this result." ”

Zhu Wu looked at Zhao Huan, his eyes were moved, and then he nodded and said, "I know, Your Highness must be in a lot of trouble for my affairs, but it's just ......," Zhu Wu said this, his tone changed and he sighed bitterly, "I am dedicated to the Great Song Dynasty, and I dare to promise to send a large army to rush to the forefront to fight bloodily for the Great Song Dynasty, and the world can learn from it!" But only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Zheng trust me, and I ...... I'm so disheartened! ”

Although Zhu Wu's appearance seemed to be really frustrated to the extreme, Zhao Huan was not stupid enough to believe Zhu Wu's statement, and Zheng Juzhong's words that day still lingered in his ears...... Like Zhu Wu, who is reckless, he licked the blood on the knife all the way, in this kind of person's life creed, the word loyalty is always shit, they only believe in two things, one is life, the other is interests, the reason why he chose His Royal Highness, is because he fancy His Royal Highness will one day be ......, so it is better to say that he is betting all his treasures, and even his net worth and life on you, Although Lao Chen believes that he will do his best to help His Highness for at least a long time, His Highness should also know how to control this kind of person, treat them like a dog, take care of food, but never take care of ......!

Zhao Huan thought about it, and then persuaded him earnestly, "Brother Zhu doesn't have to be like this, the future will be long, and there will be a time for you and me to show off our strengths!" ”

Zhu Wu immediately smiled gratefully and nodded, "Yes, I am relieved to have His Royal Highness the Prince's words!" ”

"Hehe," Zheng Juzhong said with a smile, "It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Wu Guogong are full of confidence in this rebellion." ”

Zhao Huan and Zhu Wu looked at each other and smiled, Zhao Huan said, "With Brother Zhu going, this king is naturally extremely relieved." ”

Zhu Wu also said, "It's a pity that I can't continue to fight side by side with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it's a big pity!" ”

The three of them laughed again, and Zheng Juzhong immediately asked Zhu Wu while it was hot, "In that case, it seems that Wu Guogong's reply to the imperial court ......?" ”

Zhu Wu smiled bitterly, "What else?" Of course, I can only agree. His Royal Highness has already fought for me like this, if I don't obey my orders again, where will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's face go? ”

Although they heard this, Zhao Huan and Zheng Juzhong were still a little surprised, and they couldn't help but secretly say in their hearts that Zhu Wu could even agree to such harsh conditions? Is it because Zhu Wu is too broad-minded, or is he hiding some great purpose, and he is willing to pay such a heavy price for it?!

But he heard Zhu Wu continue, "However, I still have two conditions. ”

Zhao Huan and Zheng Juzhong suddenly realized, and their hearts moved secretly, no wonder they could agree, sure enough, there are still conditions, but I am afraid that this condition will not be light......

I only heard Zhu Wu continue, "After the victory of this battle, I hope that the imperial court can crown me as the hereditary Marquis of Wu, and the hereditary replacement." And give me a gold medal for avoiding death, as long as I and my children and grandchildren have not committed any treason or guilt, no crime will be added! Actually, I wanted to talk about this idea last time, but I was worried that it would be too abrupt, so this time I wanted to ask the prince and Lord Zheng for their opinions, but I don't know...... Can I make this request higher? ”

Zhao Huan and Zheng Juzhong glanced at each other, and each other saw a deep shock in their eyes, Zhao Huan couldn't help but secretly gasp, Zhu Wu really has a big appetite, the hereditary title plus the gold medal for avoiding death, no matter which dynasty or generation since ancient times, this is the highest reward!

However, Zhao Huan couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief while being surprised, he finally understood what Zhu Wu's purpose was, okay, very good, Zhu Wu, Zhu Wu, this king is not afraid that you are ambitious, but afraid that you are distracted, as long as you can be honest and obedient, this king will definitely not be stingy if he can satisfy you!

"This request is difficult," Zhao Huan said frankly, "but I will do my best for you!" ”

Zhu Wu excitedly bowed to Zhao Huan and bowed deeply, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Early the next morning, Zhu Wu gave a formal reply to the imperial court, and Zhu Wu's reply surprised the emperor, and he immediately consulted the ministers for advice.

The prince did not break his promise, although he did not come forward, but many ministers immediately said that they could promise Zhu Wu, they believed that since the Jingdong thieves were mainly based on the Qishan army, let them shed so much blood and sell their lives, they should also give some sweetness to eat, and Zhu Wu asked for only a national duke, and the ministers can be crowned a national duke There are also a lot, and in the future, find a way to take back the two Zhejiang roads from Zhu Wu's hands, the so-called "Wu Guogong" is at best an honor, even if it is hereditary and useless. As for the death-free gold medal, this should be Zhu Wu's main purpose, to put it bluntly, he is ready to completely return to the imperial court in the future, this is looking for a way back for himself, although the imperial court also agreed, he can exchange a gold medal for Zhu Wu can rest assured to return the two Zhejiang roads, this is really cheap, and this so-called death-free gold medal has a lot of room for maneuver, since the imperial court can send it to you, then it can also be taken back, if you really want you to die, especially a small gold medal can be stopped? In history, even if all dynasties and generations gave the "Danshu Iron Scroll", it is not uncommon for them to still be unable to escape death. Now the top priority of the imperial court is to make Zhu Wu happy, so that he can serve the imperial court wholeheartedly, help the imperial court pacify the Jingdong thieves, and recover Jingdong Road, which is the most important thing.

In order to appease Zhu Wu as much as possible, so that he could help him pacify Jingdong, and he was not willing to go against Zhu Wu from such matters that had nothing to do with the overall situation, King Jia also agreed to accept Zhu Wu's conditions.

Seeing this, the emperor finally made up his mind, and on the same day, a holy decree was issued, officially appointing Zhu Wu as the deputy generalissimo of the imperial court to rebel against the army, and ordered Zhu Wu to leave Beijing on the same day and return to Liangzhejiang Road to reorganize the army, and be ready to listen to the Qishan army to help the imperial court quell the rebellion in Jingdong!

A Jingdong war that seems to be going down in history has finally officially kicked off!
