Bluestone Ridge.

It was noon, Zhu Di stood on the high place of the mountain range, looking around, but there were only a few hundred, only Chen Xuan, Zhang Wu and a few other people among the generals, and the rest were his own cronies and guards. As for the others, Zhu Di looked down the mountain, with a painful look on his face, and the once invincible Yan army surrendered on their knees, begging for forgiveness from the imperial court.

When the news of the destruction of Beiping City came, the morale of the Yan army immediately plummeted, Li Yuan was overjoyed when he saw this, waved his army and attacked fiercely, the Yan army collapsed, with the arrival of Geng Xuan and Sheng Yong one after another, the Yan army surrendered one after another, and Zhu Di had to retreat to the mountain and defend it by virtue of the mountain situation.

Zhu Di looked far away, but did not find Xu Huizu's banner, he looked at the sun above his head, knowing that Xu Huizu would not come, he did not want to see his last face, alas, Zhu Di sighed, looked back at Chen Xuan and others, and said with a wry smile: "Yanchun, everyone, this king is sorry for you, let you down." ”

"But don't worry, before this king left Beiping this time, he left a suicide note in the mansion, stating that everything was done by this king alone, and it has nothing to do with you, and the court will send you lightly."

"Lord Wang, you can't, it's all incompetent!" "Lord Wang, you can't, the last general is incompetent!" "Lord Wang, you can't, the last general is incompetent!" "No, lord!"

When the generals heard this, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed, beat their chests, and wept loudly, the crying was heartbreaking, but it contained indescribable and inexplicable despair and pathos......

Zhu Di finally glanced at everyone, and laughed loudly: "If the husband dies, he will die, in the past, Li Guang was unwilling to face the officials of the sword and pen and angrily killed himself, this king is the son of Emperor Gao, and the south is the king, is it not as good as Li Guang in a district?" ”

Speaking, waving his sword to kill himself, in the exclamation of everyone, Zhu Di's tall body slowly fell, Chen Xuan and others grabbed it and held Zhu Di's body, but found that Zhu Di was bleeding and could not speak, in the eyes of everyone, Zhu Di passed away quickly, and everyone couldn't help crying.

After a long time, Chen Xuan shouted: "Lord Wang, wait for the end of the journey!" As he spoke, he raised his knife and killed himself.

Watching Chen Xuan fall into the dust, Zhang Wu smiled and said, "Yanchun, I didn't expect you to take the lead." As he spoke, he pulled out his long knife, wiped it on his neck, and slowly fell down......

When the generals rushed to the top of the mountain, they found that among the hundreds of people on the top of the mountain, there were dead bodies everywhere, and only dozens of people were holding knives and gesturing, as if they wanted to seek death, but when they saw the generals, they immediately abandoned their knives and knelt on the ground, praying for their lives. Looking at the corpses all over the ground, especially Zhu Di's blood-stained royal robe, they all sighed with some emotion, why are these people suffering, they have a good life, but they want to rebel, and now they are dying, and they will affect the three clans. Only Geng Xuan was still angry, staring at Zhu Di's corpse hatefully, and only turned around for a long time, closed his eyes and prayed: "Father, now that the Yan thief has given the head, your old man can rest in peace!" As he spoke, tears streamed down his cheeks.

In the years that followed, Qingshiling was gradually renamed Yanwangling, because many people said that they saw Zhu Di feasting on the top of the mountain, and the generals waved their swords and danced, and some people said that when they crossed the mountain late at night, they heard bursts of shouts and killings, and they rested for a long time.....

The generals then turned back upstream and joined Ping'an, who led 20,000 rebels to kill the enemy and ransom themselves, and personally led 100,000 cavalry to fight a decisive battle with the Mongol army. In the narrow vicinity of Huairou and Miyun, the Mongol army had no way out but to flee north. The rebels for self-redemption, all fought bravely, killed the Mongol corpses all over the field, countless dead and wounded, from the Baihe River to Gubeikou all the way, almost every step of the way there are Mongolian corpses, and finally only Ugqi, Taiping, Mahamu and others led 20,000 remnants of the army to escape from the Great Wall along the passage opened by Arutai.

The Mongol army was so frightened that they did not dare to stay near the Great Wall, and immediately fled to Mobei. Ping'an sent troops out of the fortress to conquer Kaiping, recover Daning, chase the Mongolian army for more than 1,000 miles and return, and then report to the Beijing division.

At this time, Shi Wangdu, the marching commander sent by Zhu Yunwen, had just arrived in Beiping.

After this battle, the Mongol army suffered heavy losses, and the eastern nobles were both severely damaged, and the headquarters of the Golden Family was almost unscathed, so that the Warat could no longer suppress the eastern Mongols. With the return of Ugqi and Taiping, the civil war in Warat, provoked by Eseku, not only did not subside, but intensified, and Ugqi also made up his mind to unify the four warat tribes, and then go east to compete with the Golden Family.

The Golden Family became the biggest winner of this battle, and although Erlebok retreated to Mobei, he greatly expanded his power, reaching Lake Bell in the east, Lake Baikal in the north, and Hangai Mountain in the west, all of which became their direct territories. Ugqi's crushing defeat also caused the eastern Mongols to lose confidence in him and turn to the desert's true master----- Elbok Khan. And Erlebok also got the woman he dreamed of, and accepted his brother-in-law Hong Gaowa as a side concubine, and regarded his son Azhai Taiji as a parent.

The situation in the Mobei grassland has changed dramatically again, and the rise of the Golden Family seems inevitable.

On May 11 of the second year of Jianwen, the messenger of Ping'an arrived in Beijing, Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the announcement to the world, and the Beijing division celebrated for three days, and ordered the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to immediately draw up a list of rewards and reward them all.

When he returned to the harem, Zhu Yunwen couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart anymore, as if he had gone to a heavy stone in his heart, he felt relaxed, and couldn't help laughing and dancing. Queen Ma Hui hurriedly came, and when she learned that Zhu Di was conferred the head, she was also very happy, and suggested that the inner palace be rewarded, and Zhu Yunwen agreed again and again.

That night, Zhu Yunwen stayed in Kunning Palace at night, he was very excited, and begged for joy again and again, but Ma Hui also tactfully accepted the joy, and crossed his neck and whispered. Ten months later, Zhu Yunwen's third son was born and named Zhu Wenji.

The next day, the holy decree was issued, ordering Guo Jian to be the commander of Beiping, sitting in Beiping, Guo Ying was the general army of Liaodong, sitting in Guangning, Zhuang got the town of Kaiping, Chu Zhi was in Daning, Xu Huizu inspected the border fortress of the Great Wall, controlled all the garrisons in Beiping, the first army, the second army, and the third cavalry army of the guards stayed in Beiping, and the rest of the army returned to the original guard post to wait for rewards.

Ping'an, Sheng Yong, Geng Xuan, Li Yuan, Qu Neng and others returned to Beijing to offer their victory, and listened to the seal.

On 30 May, the generals of the army who had been fighting for half a year returned, and Zhu Yunwen held a grand ceremony for the generals in the Fengtian Temple, and crowned the heroes of the counterinsurgency on the spot.

Since the Hongwu Dynasty only had the title of duke and marquis, Zhu Yunwen re-established the title of son and boy.

Awarded Ping'an as the Duke of Yiguo, the third-class Fengtian Yiwei pushed the Chengxuan Li military minister, the age of 3,000 stones, awarded the marquis hereditary iron coupon, promoted to the governor, and presided over the left army governor's mansion.

Awarded Sheng Yong as the history of the marquis, the second-class Fengtian Yiyun pushed the sincerity of Xuanli Wuchen, the age of 1,500 stones, awarded the earl hereditary iron coupon, promoted to the governor, presided over the right army governor's mansion.

Li Yuan was awarded the title of An Pingbo, the second-class Fengtian Yiyun pushed Cheng Xuanli Wuchen, the age was 500 stones, the viscount was awarded the hereditary iron coupon, and he was promoted to the governor of the capital.

Qu Neng was awarded An Yuanbo, the second-class Fengtian Yiyun pushed Cheng Xuanli Wuchen, the age was 500 stones, the viscount was awarded a hereditary iron coupon, and he was promoted to the governor.

Geng Xuan was still the Marquis of Changxing, and his age increased to 2,000 stones, and he was promoted to the governor and presided over the Houjun Governor's Mansion.

The generals thanked the emperor one after another, Zhu Yunwen raised his glass, and hundreds of officials celebrated, at this moment, Zhu Yunwen finally felt that he was an emperor......

As Zhu Di's family and the main generals of the rebel army were escorted into Beijing one after another, the question of how to deal with Zhu Di's line was also put on Zhu Yunwen's desk, but Zhu Yunwen did not express his position, but ordered the Military Aircraft Department, the Ministry of Rites, the Criminal Department, the Department of Justice, and the Dali Temple to discuss.

The results of Zhu Neng, Ru Yu, Chen Ying and others were quickly sent to Zhu Yunwen's case, and Zhu Yunwen picked up the case file and looked at it, and it was clear at a glance, Ling Chi and Zhu Jiu.

Zhu Yunwen hesitated for a long time, and finally issued an edict that all the officers above the commander of the guard in the "five armies" of the rebel army would be beheaded and punished, and the brothers would be exiled, the female dependents would be exiled, and the border sergeants would be married; The commander of Wei demoted the officers below the rank of 1,000 households to the rank of commoners, exiled to the frontier, and was not allowed to return to their original places for life; Sergeants with less than 1,000 households are stationed in the northwest and are mixed with the Northwest Guard, and from then on, they will be treated equally and shall not be discriminated against.

Finally, Zhu Yunwen noted that the sergeants who had made meritorious contributions in the final battle with the Mongolian army could have their sentences commuted, and the specific list was jointly formulated by Ping'an, Sheng Yong, and Geng Xuan.

As for Zhang Fu at the last moment, Zhu Yunwen exempted his father from the charge of rebellion, demoted him to 100 households, and transferred to Shenyang Zhongwei, and the new commander of Shenyang Zhongwei was Shao Yun and Shao Yixiang.

Some of the rebel generals were dissatisfied with the verdict, and proposed that Zhu Di had left a letter and would bear all the things, but Zhu Yunwen sent a messenger to ask Xu Yihua, but Xu Yihua replied that he didn't know, so Zhu Yunwen upheld the original verdict and did not pardon him. And the letter mentioned in Zhu Di's last words has become an eternal mystery for future generations.

Regarding the disposal of Zhu Di's family, Zhu Yunwen specially wrote a letter to all the vassal kings, as well as Xu Huizu, Xu Zengshou, Li Jinglong and others for their opinions. A month later, all the letters were replied, and the content was similar, and those who did not intercede for Zhu Di said that the emperor was merciful and had his own judgment.

Three days later, Zhu Yunwen issued an edict, abolished Zhu Di as a concubine, his son Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosui died, his mother Xu Yihua was released to Xufu, Zhang Fu's sister Zhang Jinse's youngest son Zhu Gaowei was placed under house arrest in Fengyang, and he was not allowed to go out without an edict, and his mother Zhang Jinse was released to the Zhang family and married on his own.

Among Zhu Di's daughters, all of them were relegated to concubines, and they were subject to marriage, not limited.

Zhu Gaowei has been sick since childhood, and Jianwen died of illness in three years. So far, Zhu Di has been in a lineage.

Xu Yihua closed the door in the Xu Mansion, chanted Buddhist scriptures, and died of illness in the eighth year of Jianwen.

A year later, Zhang Jinse married Shao Yun in the third year of Jianwen and had two sons, but he was depressed and died of illness in ten years.
