Last time, he said that he took advantage of his father's promulgation of a policy on dealing with feudal kings in various places. Duanmuzhen, the crown prince who came to Hanoi Province with his fiancée Feng Xuege, immediately launched an operation against the three vassal kings whose fiefdoms were in Liao, Lin Wangzhe, and Xiyao Wang Xin.

On September 28, the 33rd year of Duanning, the crown prince Duanmuzhen sent Dai Qi, the commander of the Hidden Dragon Army, to lead his subordinates to take the lead in attacking Duanmuqi, the king of Liao, who was divided into Liaozhou, Hanoi Province.

This King Duanmu is equivalent to the uncle and grandfather of the crown prince Duanmuzhen, but for Duanmuzhen, he doesn't care what this King Duanmuqi has to do with him. He only has disgust and hatred for this sinful prince, he will not forget that among the vassal kings who once forced the palace, there is this uncle and grandfather, this uncle may not have thought that this prince is not the prince of the other four countries who have lived in the deep palace for a long time, but a prince who has followed his father since he was a child, he has been taught by those loyal ministers since he was a child, and even those palace maids and eunuchs who served him are all talented and virtuous people like Gao He, these loyal ministers and close attendants, etc., Most of them have experienced the thrilling palace forcing action, because the father and mother were afraid that they would live in hatred, so it was forbidden for anyone to mention it in front of him, but he still saw the process of the tragic palace change in the history books, especially those who united and tried to kill the father and the queen mother and those who were still in his infancy, he remembered them one by one, and later, as he grew up, he often asked about these people from the side, As a result, these masters of his, as well as all the subordinate officials of the East Palace, all told him what had happened.

When he heard about how his father lived under the persecution of these people, how he endured humiliation and burden, his father was the hero in his heart, his father was not those cold-blooded emperors for the imperial power, his father was his father first, then the emperor, for his father, he was first a son, and then a courtier, so his father, although he had great expectations for him, hoped that he could slowly accept the responsibility on his shoulders.

As he came of age, and with all that he had been through, he had come to understand the responsibility on his shoulders. Although he has hatred in his heart for these enemies, he will not act rashly because of hatred. My father once said that the empire must be governed by law, what is the law? The law cannot be violated even by the Son of Heaven. For these enemies, we must rule them according to law in order to convince the people of the world. In the edict of the father, it was already written that if the Son of Heaven also violated the law, he would also be tried by the three legal divisions, and the Son of Heaven would be guilty of the same crime as the common people if he broke the law. For the first time, he understood his father's idea of governing the country, that is, the rule of law in the world, not the rule of man. He knew that such an approach would inevitably weaken the authority of the Son of Heaven. However, it is precisely in this way that he truly feels that if he can persist in this way, as long as the rule of law does not fall, then the empire will definitely not fall.

This time, he sent his subordinates to capture all the people who committed the heinous crimes of King Ning and their minions, and King Duanmu Qi never thought that his criminal life was about to come to an end. The news of the arrest of King Duanmuqi caused a shock in the entire Liaoning and even the entire Hanoi province.

Ningzhou Taishou Xing Hui was originally a wise guy who protected himself, although King Duanmuqi was arrested and sent to his yamen, but he directly picked on his son, even if it was His Royal Highness the Prince, he only excused himself and said that he was seriously ill and could not handle government affairs. For him, this is an internal matter of your royal family, and it has nothing to do with him, a foreign minister, and he still wants to protect himself.

However, this Taishou didn't expect that he did this, which actually made this prince Duanmuzhen extremely angry, although the content of this Taishou's resignation was very reasonable, but is the prince Duanmuzhen really a fool? I'm afraid that this Taishou can't imagine that although Duanmuzhen is a gentle and benevolent person, it is also for those loyal ministers and good generals. For an official like him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tried all his crimes with almost no effort, and it didn't take long for the Lord Taishou to receive the holy decree to deal with him, and when he was dragged out and beheaded, he still felt incredulous. Especially the person who tried him, or the newly arrived Ningzhou Taishou Yu Shilian, this benevolent brother, can be described as temperament like fire, jealousy and hatred, he is both civil and military, not only once became a general because of his outstanding military exploits, and was named a liehou, but also served as a number of magistrates, how many local heroes and vassal kings have been disposed of by him, so this time the emperor transferred him to Liaozhou Taishou, he understands very well, is to support His Royal Highness the Prince, and dispose of this Ningwang Duanmuqi.

From the moment he received the decree, he immediately set out and set off overnight for Hanoi Province. And because he only needs to be an official for one term, he will benefit one party, and the result is that hundreds of people are reluctant to bid him farewell for dozens of miles. When he rushed to Liaozhou and met with His Royal Highness the Prince, he began to try a series of crimes against Duanmuqi, the king of Liao.

He has been busy with this matter, but thanks to the help of His Royal Highness the Prince, he was able to finally try the crime of this king in less than a month.

After that, Duanmu was escorted into Beijing, and the relatives of King Ning and the minions who worked for him were all executed according to law.

When the case of Duanmuqi, the king of Ningzhou, was heard clearly, just as the crown prince Duanmuzhen went to deal with the next Lin Wang, Duanmuzhe, the feudal king of this fief in Linzhou, was a womanizer, he not only recruited beauties to enrich his palace, but also built palaces on a large scale, regardless of the suffering of the local people, and the people were eager to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin.

However, this time, with the arrival of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, all the people of Lin Prefecture have great expectations for His Royal Highness the Prince. And Lin Zhou Taishou has changed someone, this person is Fu Tingzhang, a native of Lin Zhou who was once killed by King Lin and his sister. Since he took office, he has been searching for evidence of this King Lin's crimes, and as a result, dozens of boxes of crimes that this King Lin has committed are piled up.

When he saw His Royal Highness the Prince, he naturally immediately took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince down in front of the boxes full of the sins of King Lin.

Duanmuzhen was a little dumbfounded, he was stunned for a long time, and then asked Fu Tingzhang: "Fu Taishou, is this the sin of this King Lin?" ”

Fu Tingzhang said: "Yes, Your Highness, these are all the evidence about this King Lin. According to Weichen's investigation, King Lin not only disregarded people's lives at will in his fiefdom, but also wantonly united with local officials to loot the people's fat and ointment, and what he did was enough for him to kill 10,000 times! ”

Duanmu Zhen muttered to himself: "Hehe! I see, it turns out that this is the vassal king of the empire. ”

For Duanmuzhen, the actions of these vassal kings deeply pierced his heart, which also made the future Chitang Empire, where anyone who did not have merit, not be crowned king. If the heirs of the imperial family harm the common people, they can be sentenced by the local yamen, regardless of their royal status. As a result, the descendants of the Duanmu royal family of the Chitang Empire have almost never appeared unscrupulous, and all the descendants of the royal family of the Chitang Empire have all become important pillars of the empire and won the support of the people of the empire.

After some careful consideration, Duanmuzhen felt that such a sinful vassal king must be beheaded to thank the world.

And the king of Lin, Duanmu Zhe, who was caught, also became the first vassal king to be killed. When the vassal king and his sinful relatives, subordinate officials and officials were disposed of, all the people of Linzhou set off firecrackers one after another, and the firecracker shops in the entire Linzhou City distributed firecrackers to the people for free, and they were as happy as the New Year.

And the corpses of these sinners were not collected at all, of course, because of the respect for His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, even the people who hated these sinners did not insult the corpses of these people. They believed that if they really insulted these corpses, it would be tantamount to insulting the now wise emperor and benevolent crown prince.

Later, it was the crown prince Duanmuzhen who personally led his subordinates to clean up the corpses. After all, this vassal king is his own relative, and no matter how serious their sins are, they still have to give them a funeral. This vassal king, because of his sins, was stripped of his title, so he was finally buried as a commoner. However, no tombs were built.

When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left, the people of Lin Zhou sent each other for dozens of miles, and they were very supportive of His Royal Highness the Prince, who asked for his life for the people, was benevolent and loved the people, and Prince Duanmuzhen also loved these people very much.

Next, the crown prince Duanmuzhen's eyes were aimed at the next vassal king, that is, Duanmuxin, the king of Xiyao, this vassal king, because of the evil deeds in his life, so when he heard that His Royal Highness the crown prince was going to come to his fiefdom Xiyao Prefecture in person, he simply did not do anything, and colluded with some generals who violated the law and were demoted in Xiyao Prefecture, and began to rebel.

However, for Duanmuzhen, the crown prince who led the imperial army, this rebellion of King Xiyao was like a playhouse.

On November 22, the 33rd year of Duanning, when the fierce army under the command of Prince Duanmuzhen completely put down the rebellion with almost no effort. Duanmuxin, the king of Xiyao, knew that he was guilty of a lot of sin and would definitely not die a good death. Therefore, he first beheaded his wife and children, and then hanged himself.

And the crown prince Duanmuzhen immediately asked the Taishou of Xiyao Prefecture to try these criminal ministers who rebelled and dealt with them according to law.

After such a toss, on December 28, the 33rd year of Tuan Ninh, Prince Duanmu Zhen began to set off from Hanoi Province.

Originally, the emperor Duanmugang, who was still thinking of marrying the prince this year, that is, Zhou Shuyu, could only wait until next year at the moment! This time, he was very satisfied with his son's treatment of the three feudal kings.

At this moment, because of the edict of Duanmu Gangdi, a large number of people began to spontaneously respond to the call and go to the territory ceded to the empire by the Shunyuan Empire.

However, at this time, there were changes in the Shun Yuan Empire, and the emperor Yuan Hong, who ceded the territory, was abolished by his younger brother Yuan Che, the king of Yuanyang, and Yuan Che established himself as the emperor, abolished Yuan Hong's bad governance, and began to carefully govern his country. For Yuan Che, he has always been haunted by the land ceded to the Chitang Empire by Yuan Hong, but he also knows that his national strength is no longer able to support another use of troops, so he can only recuperate and recuperate, intending to recover this land in the future.

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
