Chapter 502: Meritorious
When Hao Fenglou got closer to this real Son of Heaven, the more familiar he was with Zhu Di's nature.
It is precisely because of this that Hao Fenglou took the risk and made this inference.
Hao Fenglou also knew that in the palace, those eunuchs who were alienated by Jianwen had a lot of resentment towards Jianwen, and many of these people acted as Zhu Di's eyes and ears.
Based on these two points, Hao Fenglou took a great risk and confirmed a headless public case.
Is Zhu Yunwen really alive?
It is absolutely impossible, the so-called Jingnan, although the banner is on the side of the Qing monarch, but the real intention is to replace it and usurp the throne, and what the banner of Jingnan covers up is the bloody fact that uncles and nephews cannibalize each other.
In other words, if Zhu Di can't enter Jinling, then he must be dead and have no place to be buried. But once he entered Beijing, he had no choice but to be the Son of Heaven.
On the one hand, it is out of Zhu Di's ambition, on the other hand, if Zhu Di is still a subordinate, Jianwen Tianzi, will he still let Zhu Di go? An uncle Wang, if he says that it is difficult to appease, he will bring troops into Beijing if he brings troops into Beijing, and he says that he will kill your minister for a long time, if Jianwen continues to be the Son of Heaven, the only way is to kill his own Uncle Wang.
So Zhu Di has no choice, he can't be the Duke of Zhou, he can only be Wang Mang.
If you want to be Wang Mang, you can't let Zhu Yunwen live, but another crucial problem has arisen, Zhu Di is Zhu Yunwen's uncle, Zhu Yunwen is Zhu Di's king, from the perspective of blood, Zhu Di can't kill Zhu Yunwen, and from the relationship between the monarch and the minister, Zhu Di can't do anything to Zhu Yunwen.
If so, it will be a stench for 10,000 years. The so-called appeasement will lose its legitimacy, and it will be a thousand years later. Zhu Di will always be nailed to the pillar of shame, as long as Confucianism does not die, as long as the truth of the monarch and the ministers is still there, Zhu Di can only be spurned by thousands of people.
Zhu Di wants to do great things, what he wants to do is to be a sage and master of cultural governance and martial arts, to open up the foundation of the world, and to create a great cause for thousands of years. You must not bear this infamy, so Zhu Yunwen cannot die in the hands of Zhu Di.
When Zhu Di entered the palace. Zhu Yunwen must not live, nor can he die, if he is dead, he can't tell. The palace where you led your troops. The Son of Heaven was killed, and you have a thousand mouths, saying that they have nothing to do with you, do others believe it?
So Zhu Yunwen must die, but he must also live.
Hao Fenglou is almost certain that before entering the palace, there was chaos in the palace, and those Zhu Di henchmen who were hiding in the palace. will definitely go to find Jianwen as soon as possible, Zhu Yunwen wants to escape. Where can I escape? The secret passage in the palace? This is a joke, the Forbidden City in Nanjing, there has never been any secret passage, there is no secret passage, there are tens of thousands of rebels outside, but inside, there are countless meritorious Yan Wang henchmen, and some, seeing that the general trend has gone, I wish to borrow Zhu Yunwen as a stepping stone for the inner servants and close ministers, where can Zhu Yunwen escape?
He has nowhere to escape, the only explanation is that he was killed, and after the killing, a fire annihilated all the evidence, and the next thing to do is to create the illusion that Zhu Yunwen escaped, because Zhu Yunwen can't die, can't die in the palace, and can't die at this point in time.
So, Zhu Yunwen 'fled', in order to prove that he really fled, not only to deceive others, but also to 'deceive' himself. So Zhu Di 'secretly' made people look for Jianwen's traces, so he went to the West, and there were rumors looking for Jianwen everywhere, so any state capital, as long as there was a little bit of news about Zhu Yunwen, the palace should be nervous.
This qiē, before and after people, on the surface, is taboo Mo Shen, in fact, it is all for people to see, it is to tell the people of the world, Jianwen is still alive, as long as he is alive, when today's son, he is just following the will of Taizu, when there are traitors in the court, Fengtian is difficult, trying to help the world. As a result, because Jianwen was nowhere to be found, he had to be persuaded by the ministers to ascend the throne as the emperor of Yongle Emperor.
Hao Fenglou was convinced that this was the answer, he raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Di with a gloomy face, who had already opened up at this time, and said: "So, since Weichen thinks that Jianwen is dead, then this Zhu Yunwen must be a fake, and of course His Majesty also knows that this person is impersonating, and the reason why he 'misbelieves' him is precisely because of his suffering, knowing that the other party is fake, but for a while, he can't find convincing evidence to expose his identity." And if he is rashly exposed, then many of the previous cover-ups will be in vain, so before there is no ironclad evidence, His Majesty knows that he is impersonating, but he still has to pinch his nose and admit it. I don't know what Weichen said, right or not? ”
Zhu Di's eyes never left Hao Fenglou for half a minute, his face flickered, as if he was thinking about something, and finally, he nodded: "Yes, I knew that he was impersonating, but although this person is impersonating, there is no flaw, and I can only make mistakes ......"
Speaking of which, this is indeed ridiculous, if it weren't for Hao Fenglou, as long as Zhu Di couldn't find a convincing flaw, then he would have to pinch his nose and admit this 'imperial nephew', no matter how angry Zhu Di was, no matter how unhappy he was, no matter how he moved a stone to hit his own feet, he had to swallow this breath.
Because he is no longer the Yan King of the Golden Iron Horse, but the Son of Heaven.
What Hao Fenglou helped him solve was not the question of Zhu Yunwen's authenticity, but that he exposed the true face of 'Zhu Yunwen' in front of everyone. That alone is a great achievement.
It's just that for Hao Fenglou, he would rather never expose this, if it weren't for the collapse of the discipline outline, Hao Fenglou would never do this, but if he wants to rectify the discipline outline, he must start with Zhu Yunwen, and if he wants to expose Zhu Yunwen, he will inevitably encounter a fatal problem.
This question is, what is your reason, Hao Fenglou has many reasons, and even when the Son of Heaven inquires, Hao Fenglou can still choose a passable reason to fool the past.
But Hao Fenglou also knows very well that when today's son is by no means a simple person, you can deceive him for a while, but you can't deceive him for a lifetime, when he knows that he has learned the truth but has played a clever and vague past, what will the Son of Heaven think.
You know this big secret, but you're still pretending to be confused, do you take me for a fool?
Therefore, Hao Fenglou decided to tell the truth, telling the truth would be risky, but at least, he showed his honesty and loyalty.
Between monarchs and ministers, in fact, ability is not necessarily important, cleverness is not necessarily important, the most important thing is loyalty.
This is the Ming Dynasty, in terms of a modern person's thoughts, what bullshit is true to the son of heaven, why should Lao Tzu be loyal to you, but only in this era, Hao Fenglou understands that the so-called universal land is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not a joke.
Hao Fenglou told the truth, now that the words have been made clear, Hao Fenglou finally said: "Wechen is dead, the matter of Jing's difficulty, should not be mentioned again, but Weichen thinks that if there is no Jing's difficulty, there will be no Weichen today, there is no Majesty, Weichen is still white, since there are some things to mention, Weichen will never dare to deceive, Weichen knows, only these, please ask Your Majesty Xià Holy Judge." ”
Hao Fenglou's words have two meanings, the first is that His Majesty does not have to worry, I will never say this matter, I must be after all, and I am also a hero of Jingnan, and it is also a common Jingnan, so I can have today, so my own interests are tied to the Son of Heaven, I was also against Jianwen back then, and I also looked forward to Jianwen being killed.
As for the second meaning, I am very honest, knowing that there are many taboos in this matter, but as a courtier, I dare not say it.
The first means to take a stand, and the second is to show loyalty.
Zhu Di looked at Hao Fenglou deadly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The temple fell silent again.
Terrible silence.
Zhao Zhong on the side kept smiling, and also looked at Hao Fenglou.
At last...... Zhu Di sighed faintly and said: "You are not guilty, not only are you not guilty, but you have merit, why talk about death?" Today's events, if you hadn't exposed it, the evil thief would have been crowned with a monkey, and I would only be afraid that I would have appointed a warlock to be the prince of the clan. Not only that, that Ji Gang's crime is extremely evil, I used to know, it's not that I don't know that this person has always been ambitious, but I have always felt that a person has a little ambition, it's not a sin, it's not a sin, it's not bad, I use his talent, as long as I can feed him, I can do things for me well, but I think wrong, I think wrong. There are many of my old brothers, and they still know how to converge, but what about some of them? But some people instigate the king of Han and instigate the son of the world for their own selfish interests, so that between me and their father and son, they are on the same page, this is ...... It's not the fault of King Han and the prince of Han, it's my fault, I think about it now, and I finally understand that it's not someone else who is at fault, it's me! ”
Zhu Di seemed to be old all of a sudden, and said word by word: "I have established the prince, but I am half-hearted, why?" That's the fear of the prince, the fear that this son of mine will be supported by too many people, and sooner or later, it will threaten me, I want to plan for a hundred years later, but I have to plan for the present, and now I will never allow the prince to be worshipped, but after a hundred years, he will succeed to the throne. Therefore, I used the king of Han and this son of mine to threaten my other son, so that he was terrified and walked on thin ice, so that he could live in fear every day, and he had no time to take care of him, so that he could be his prince and serve me with all his heart. As for the King of Han, I gave him hope again and again, and gave him hope for those henchmen, in fact, this is all out of my selfishness, today, I suddenly understood, Hao Fenglou, you taught me to understand one thing. ”
