Chapter 788: Igniting the Flames of War

"Really?" Liu Chengfeng's words broke Wu Huazhong's last illusion: "A few days ago, I had already written a letter and sent it to Nanjing urgently, but I am afraid that at this time, Cheng Guogong has already received the letter, not to mention that Cheng Guogong is a righteous person, loyal to the emperor, with this letter, it is enough to make King Ning have nothing to do." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Wu Huazhong, you are eating the court's Yulu, but colluding with King Ning, it is already a crime of the Zhu clan, and now, what do you want to say? ”

Wu Huazhong's eyes were full of despair, and he lowered his head heavily.

Liu Chengfeng didn't pay attention to him anymore, faced the Golden Palace, saluted Zhu Youzhang, and said: "Your Majesty, this case has been revealed, the merits of the case, presumably Your Majesty has already made a plan, please Your Majesty Holy Judgment." ”

The whole case has indeed come to light, from the perspective of other people, this case is indeed very exciting, but for Zhu Youjiao, I am afraid that it may not be so.

Zhu Youzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

From the very beginning, he couldn't believe that it was the prince of Chengguo, of course he also knew what the consequences would be if it involved the Zhu family, the Zhu family and the Mu family in Yunnan, Shizhen Yunnan, are the right hand of the imperial court, in Nanjing, the Zhu family tree has deep roots, once the prince has a problem, the court has to be wary of the entire Zhu family, the monarch and the minister are suspicious, it is not a good thing, it will only make people take advantage of it.

Now that the facts of the case have been clarified, the matter really has nothing to do with Zhu Lin, and Zhu Youzhu can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It's just that...... The ugliness of King Ning Zhu Jijun has been made public in this court, King Ning has broken the law, and the court still doesn't care about it?

It's a conundrum.

It's not that Zhu Youzhu doesn't want to pull out this nail, but now is the most appropriate time?

In an instant, Zhu Youzhu already had a plan, and he said lightly: "Where is Guo Tang of Dali Temple?" ”

The official in a big red robe stood up from the class, bowed down and said, "Weichen is here." ”

Zhu Youzhu said: "What should I do if I collude with the vassal king, plot against him, lose my heart, and wrongfully accuse my loyalty?"

Guo Tang said: "Your Majesty, this great crime of rebellion should be executed by Ling Chi, and the three clans are prosperous." ”

Zhu Youzhu knocked on the imperial case with his hand, and without thinking too much, he said: "How to sentence is your legal department's business, so let's do it." ”

Zhu Youzhu continued: "The rest, such as Jinyi Wei Qianhu Zhao Chuanren, etc., are all guilty of coercion, and I remember that they were coerced by King Ning, so they were lightly punished and all of them were cut in half in the city." ”

His gaze became far-reaching, and the people in the hall also held their breath, everyone knew that there was one person who had not been dealt with, and this person was King Ning, now these thieves have been punished, but the first evil has not been punished, if it is said, what will the people of the world think?

Zhu Youzhu banged on the imperial case with his hand, his face became more and more solemn, and then, he finally said: "King Ning is a nobleman of Tianhuang, a clan with the surname of the country, and he should abide by the courtier's festival and support Sheji, but he has a hidden evil heart, and he has a plan, which is also a big rebellion......"

Many people were stunned.

Everyone knows that the emperor has been avoiding conflicts with King Ning, not because the court is afraid of King Ning, but because the emperor has always thought that now is not a favorable time.

But Zhu Youzhu said this kind of thing in this court, but it was already difficult to recover, the emperor said on this occasion that someone was rebellious, could there still be the above without the following, isn't this just telling others, is it not a big deal?

So since Zhu Youzhu used the words "great rebellion", he must have made up some kind of determination.

Zhu Youzhang's eyes did reveal a kind of determination, his eyes flashed, and after a long time, he continued: "Fang Cai Liu Aiqing said, the thief and the rebel son are all punished, King Ning is plotting big things, the court must not tolerate and raise Annihilation, although I remember that King Ning is my brother of the same clan, and the same qi is connected, but the court has no faith and does not stand, and if it is unable to do things, the Ministry of Rites immediately sent envoys to Nanchang Mansion to arrest King Ning, and the law of the law was punished by the order of the sect. ”

There was no uproar in the hall this time, and everyone's eyes showed a look of horror, and they knew that there was going to be a war.

No one likes to fight, but the question is, everyone knows that King Ning, the old guy, has been planning in Nanchang for a long time, and the imperial court sent envoys to get people, is King Ning willing to bow down and arrest him? Rather than this, whoever is the king of Ning, I am afraid that it will be ruined, and when the envoy arrives at Nanchang Mansion, it is the time when King Ning rebels, and it is also the time for the court to quell the rebellion.

After so long, it's finally time to come...... Many ministers believe that the emperor has always been tolerant of King Ning because he wants to seize the favorable opportunity, but now, the emperor finally can't bear it.

Liu Jian, who was standing at the head of the left class, immediately showed a worried look in his eyes, if he wanted to fight, he must be prepared, the problem is that many things on the side of the court are not ready, the 10,000 military horses of the new army may barely be able to cope with the battle, as for the other military horses, they can only fill the scene, this is an unknown war, although the imperial court has the advantage, but once the rebellion cannot be quelled immediately, then the entire Jiangnan will fall into the flames of war, and the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to the imperial court.

What Liu Jian was worried about was not the question of whether he could win or not, but the question of how long the war would last.

It's just that now the emperor has made a decision, and the king has no jokes, and it is impossible to take back his fate now, so now the cabinet has to immediately come up with a counterinsurgency charter.

Liu Jian was thinking nonsense in his heart, and at this time, someone had already said loudly: "My Emperor Shengming!" ”

The first to stand up is Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengfeng is free and easy, in his opinion, the soldiers will block the water to cover the earth, things have come to this point, the court has been forced into a corner, and now it is not a question of whether to do anything to King Ning, but how to quell the rebellion, so what's the harm in calling a Shengming?

The ministers just woke up, so everyone bowed down like a tide, and said: "My emperor is Shengming." ”

I'm afraid that at this time, the most uncomfortable thing in my heart is Li Dongyang, Li Dongyang sighed in his heart, and his mind was full of another thing, he was also the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the imperial court sent an envoy to Nanchang Mansion, this envoy must be dead, but if you send an inconsequential person, this will definitely not be fooled, after all, such a big thing, at least it should be at the level of a waiter, the problem is, the two waiters of the Ministry of Rites are his best friends, and they are also considered protΓ©gΓ©s, and they have a lot of relationships, which one is sent, he is reluctant, But someone has to die, and it's not easy for him to make this decision now.

Zhu Youzhang's face is calm, his eyes are squinting, full of majesty, although he is already dying, although he is seriously ill, although he has not long lived, but on his body, under this crown and dragon robe, the owner of this body, still affects the eyes and minds of countless people with his words and deeds, he is unique, I am the only one, and the finger is where tens of millions of people change their fate, or tens of millions of people may be rivers of blood.

It is precisely because he knows this stake, so Zhu Youzhu is cautious in his words and deeds, he is a good emperor, the standard of a good emperor is not how many concubines he has, nor how diligent he is, at least Liu Chengfeng does not think so, a really good emperor lies in whether he has a sense of awe, they know the preciousness of power, they know how much impact power has on the common people in the world, and they know that countless people's blessings and blessings, whether they are under the influence of power, so a really good emperor, he always carries awe, good emperor, They will not let the blood of countless people flow because of the wrath of the king, they will not cause thousands of dead bodies to lie in wait because of their own preferences, they are cautious, they will not be affected by their feelings, except when it is absolutely necessary.

Right now...... Finally, the time has come when there is no way back.

At least Zhu Youzhu already thinks that the imperial court has no way out, and he can't help but make a choice.

This is undoubtedly the most difficult choice since Zhu Youzhu ascended the throne, he hates war, war will shed blood, will kill people, will make many people unable to make a living, will make countless families bear unbearable pain. Zhu Youzhu is undoubtedly kind-hearted, he is sympathetic to others, and he hurts others, but he is just ...... War is inevitable.

Zhu Youzhu stood up from the imperial chair, perhaps he thought that sitting on the imperial chair, he could no longer express his emotions, he stood up, made himself higher, saw more far-reaching, he looked down on everyone in the palace, just as he looked down on all living beings.

"Hey......"

There are no passionate words, there is no gritted teeth to crusade against the text, Zhu Youzhu actually sighed faintly, of course he is very clear about what he is doing, the benevolent king will not let his people fall into the flames of war, so happy, the emperor who opens up the territory is not valuable. It is precious to be able to give peace to the people as always, and unless it is absolutely necessary, the merciful king will kill in the posture of a protector.

There were some tears in Zhu Youzhang's eyes, but his gaze was firmer than ever, sharper than ever, and he finally spoke.

Liu Chengfeng stayed...... Retreat! ”

In a strange way, the ministers expected His Majesty to say a few uplifting words, or to criticize King Ning's evil deeds, but he did not want to say anything more.

But at this moment, almost everyone is making their own calculations, what the upcoming turmoil means, what will they gain or lose, this is everyone's concern, everyone has selfish interests, and the same is true for ministers, they each have their own hearts, and silently retreated.

I'm afraid that at this time, there will not be many people who understand Zhu Youzhu and his thoughts, but there are a few people who have a meaningful look at the emperor, and this person also includes Liu Chengfeng.
