King Lu was really killed by Shen Yichen!

In an instant, Hu Hu didn't know what to say, he could only stare at Shen Yichen with wide eyes, he couldn't imagine that such a young official would dare to kill Prince Ming when he went out of town!

To be honest, there have been rumors from all sides over the years, and it is almost recognized that the strangeness of King Lu's death back then is not quite like suicide, and the spearhead is basically pointed at Shen Yichen.

But the problem is that there is an essential difference between the speculation of all parties and Shen Yichen's personal admission. Hu Hu also doubted and speculated for a long time, but he never dared to draw a conclusion, after all, this matter was too shocking, it was unbelievable.

Now Shen Yichen's words in his ear are equivalent to admitting his actions to punish the king. The question is that this son has always acted calmly and sophisticatedly, not the kind of pampered and arrogant person, did he suddenly say this sentence to do something, simply to show off or demonstrate?

"Uncle Zong, are you like this?"

Yang Xing, the secretary of Honglu Temple, who was standing on the side, saw that Hu Hu was standing in place like a wooden chicken after hearing Shen Yichen's whispers, and the whole person's state was wrong, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.

Yang Xing's words relieved Hu Hu, he took a breath to suppress the violent rise and fall of his chest, and then said: "It's okay, it's just that I'm a little angry when I'm older, since Shen Zhongtang led the Jinyi Guard to come over to do the eucalyptus, then the old man won't intervene too much." ”

Yes?

Hu Hui's words made Yang Xing also stunned, and in the last second, he was still angrily reprimanding Shen Yichen for being extremely arrogant, daring to ask the relatives of the guilty emperor without a holy decree. As a result, it was just a whisper, and the next second it became too old and too involved.

No wonder Hu Hui can go through six dynasties without falling, this skill of changing his face is really not comparable to ordinary people.

However, Yang Xing still has one thing he doesn't understand, that is, what Shen Yichen said, so that Hu Hu, a veteran of the Six Dynasties, did not flinch in the slightest, has the times really changed?

"Thank you for your understanding."

Shen Yichen smiled and thanked him, and he couldn't see any panic in revealing the secret at all, as if killing the Prince of Daming was simply not worth mentioning in his eyes.

With Shen Yichen and Hu Hu completing the handover of the "home field", the honor guard of the three kings on the other side came to Dongzhimen in a majestic manner.

In addition to the order flag, Qingdao, Lile and other honor guards, the personal guards are only allowed to have eleven pairs of swords and shields, 20 pairs of bows and arrows, plus ceremonial knives, swords, halberds, lances and other guards, and the number of people is limited to 100 people.

But Shen Yichen looked at the past, and the number of guards was at least more than a thousand, even if this was the companionship of the three kings, it still exceeded three times the provisions of the etiquette law. It seems that King Xiang has put on a posture of the emperor's uncle, and he is ready to give Emperor Jingtai a dismount from the specifications.

At the same time that Shen Yichen was looking at the prince's guard of honor, Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, who was sitting in the carriage, also opened a corner of the curtain of the car door and looked at the honor guard greeted by Dongzhimen. From a distance, he could see that the city gate was densely packed with people, and the scarlet robe of the leading official was unusually conspicuous.

If Zhu Zhandong's guess was correct, the emperor still received him according to high standards, and sent two yamen officials from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, otherwise there would not be such a big battle.

However, as he got closer and closer to the city gate, Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, found that there were more and more people standing at the gate, and a large number of brocade guards also appeared. Theoretically, as the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, the Jinyi Guard will often act as an honor guard accompanying him, but the problem is that the prince's level is not up to the level of using the Jinyi Guard as an entourage.

After all, Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, had been in charge of the country several times, and this kind of greeting procession, which was obviously out of place, gave him a hint of foreboding in his heart. But as the only living son of Renzong and the uncle of the current emperor, King Xiang couldn't think of the source of the crisis.

In this way, after the royal palace guard arrived at the city gate, they lined up, and the three princes' carriages were lined up in a row, and then the entourage lifted the curtain of the car, revealing the dragon robe of the three kings with a big red five-clawed golden dragon, which can be described as extremely majestic.

This is different from many descriptions in later generations, in fact, the Ming Dynasty's "Ming Huidian" stipulates that the emperor, the crown prince, and the prince of the prince of the county all use the winged crown and the dragon robe.

The only difference is that the emperor's dragon robe is yellow, and the rest is red.

Xiangwang Zhu Zhanfeng is the first king, he has lived in the palace for a long time, and also served as a supervisor and was worshiped by hundreds of officials, and he is very familiar with old ministers such as Hu Hu.

He thought that after he appeared, Hu Hui would lead the greeting officials to come over and salute, but he didn't expect Hu Hui, who was a veteran of the Six Dynasties, to stand at the back, led by a young scarlet official, who was looking at himself with playful eyes.

There is still a young official in the DPRK and China who can overpower Hu Hui, this kind of picture is simply incredible.

The only possibility that Zhu Zhan Yuan thought of was that this young man was a son of a family that attacked the lord after the Tumubao Incident, but the problem was that he was not wearing the standard unicorn robe of the princess, but the flying fish suit given by the emperor.

Xiangwang Zhu Zhan didn't know Shen Yichen, one of the three kings present, that was simply to burn Shen Yichen to ashes, he remembered, this person was Zhu Taikan, the king of Lu!

Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Zhu Taikan's mood was first shocked, then angry, and finally a wisp of fear that he didn't want to admit!

】

Who would have thought that the dignified Prince Ming would be afraid of a young court official?

"Shen Yichen, why are you here!"

In addition to being shocked, Zhu Taikan, the king of Lu, directly blurted out Shen Yichen's name, and it was not until this moment that King Xiang and King Zhao understood who the young official in front of them was.

"Of course, the lower officials are here to greet the three princes."

Shen Yichen smiled and bowed, his movements seemed very casual, and he couldn't see the slightest "welcome" attitude.

"Presumptuous, without condescension and humility, I can't bow down when I see this king!"

King Zhao's temper was rather irritable, and when he saw Shen Yichen's appearance, he immediately shouted angrily.

"This official is an important minister of the Son of Heaven, not a vassal of the three princes, how can he kneel and bow to the courtesy?"

When Shen Yichen said this, he specially accentuated the tone of the word "heavy minister". In fact, according to the provisions of the "Daming Huidian", the prince is only the first class of the Son of Heaven, and the rest of the princes and ministers need to bow down and bow down, and they dare not bow down.

Of course, many things are regulations, and what is really implemented depends on power, especially Shen Yichen came here this time to do something to turn his face, and he also wanted to let himself kneel and bow to his courtiers, it was just a dream!

"You, a minister, not only changed the "Emperor Ming Ancestral Training", but now you don't even abide by the "Ming Huidian", what the world knows is our old Zhu family, and those who don't know think that you Shen Yichen is seeking to usurp the throne."

"Come on, take down this chaotic minister and thief for this king!"

As a son-in-law, Zhu Zhanyan, the king of Zhao, has been accustomed to being powerful in the fief for decades, and he has not put anyone in his eyes except the emperor in the world. What is Shen Yichen, he is also worthy of being arrogant in front of himself, even if he has the status of a member of the imperial court, he will take it and escort it to the emperor today.

After hearing the order, King Zhao's personal guards who accompanied him also did not hesitate at all, and a group of people swarmed up to take down Shen Yichen on the spot. But at this time, Zhao Hongjie waved his big hand, and the brocade guard came out, directly drawing his knife to block the front, his eyes were full of murderous energy.

"Uncle Zong, Shen Zhongtang is he really here?"

Yang Xing of Honglu Temple couldn't close his mouth in surprise, he finally understood a little at the moment, why Hu Hu, the secretary of the dignified ceremonial department, would choose to retreat, Shen Zhongtang He really dared to use a knife against the prince!

"It's not surprising how to do it, the old man just wants to see how he ends!"

Hu Hui replied with a pale face, he couldn't imagine how Shen Yichen could get the emperor's forgiveness and gain a foothold in the court after he killed the prince.

"Jinyi Wei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, you want to rebel and fail!"

After seeing this scene, Xiangwang Zhu Zhandong finally couldn't sit still, he pointed at Zhao Hongjie and asked sharply.

"King Xiang, the sword soldiers are used in vain at the feet of the Jingshi, I think you want to rebel."

Zhao Hongjie responded coldly, and there was no fear and respect for the three kings in his words.

"Who are you to dare to speak to this king like this?"

"Commander Zhao Hongjie of Jinyiwei, is the prince still satisfied?"

Hearing that Zhao Hongjie was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Xiangwang Zhu Zhandong's face changed instantly. He is not as irascible and reckless as Zhu Zhanyuan, the king of Zhao, and he knows very well the intimacy between the other party's official position and the emperor, and it is unlikely that he will appear here without the authorization of the Son of Heaven.

The question is why did the Son of Heaven authorize the transfer of Jinyiwei, and what did Shen Yichen want to do?

Before Xiangwang Zhu Zhan opened his mouth, Zhu Taikan, the king of Lu, who was standing next to him, already asked with a gloomy face: "Shen Yichen said, what do you want to do, if you don't have a satisfactory explanation, when this king faces the saint, I have to get justice from Your Majesty even if I fight for this life!" ”

After all, Zhu Taikan has seen Shen Yichen's methods, and he knows that the other party is not an existence to be messed with, so he can only take out the emperor's name to suppress people.

As a result, a scene that everyone present never expected appeared, Shen Yichen had a playful smile on his face, and then walked directly in front of Zhu Taikan, King Lu, and said: "King Lu, this is not the first time you want to seek justice, have you gotten it?" ”

As soon as Shen Yichen's words came out, the faces of the three kings all changed drastically, especially King Lu Zhu Taikan's blood surged, and his whole face flushed instantly. The reason is that they know very well what the "justice" mentioned in Shen Yichen's mouth is, this is a provocation with the death of the former King of Lujing, Zhu Zhaoxuan, which is simply rampant to the extreme.

Not to mention the three kings, even Hu Hu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who was standing on the side, had an indescribable shock in his heart.

Shen Yichen not only told himself that he had done something to punish the king, but also dared to stand in front of the current King of Lu, Zhu Taikan, implying that the other party could not get back this "justice", and he would be punished for killing!

"This king is going to kill you, a rebel and thief!"

At this moment, the anger had completely controlled Zhu Taikan, the king of Lu, and he subconsciously wanted to pull out the sword on his waist and make a move.

However, Shen Yichen's movements were faster, and at the moment when Zhu Taikan pulled out his sword and wanted to raise it, he directly kicked him in the chest, and then the playful smile on his face faded, and he said with an indifferent expression: "King Lu is suspected of rebellion when he assassinates important ministers of the court in public, and Jinyiwei takes people down." ”

As the saying goes, the grass must be eradicated, Shen Yichen killed the former King Lu, but there was no way to attack Zhu Taikan, the son of Lu, so that he has been impeached continuously over the years.

The reason why he kept provoking the arch fire was not because he swelled after being in a high position, or because he wanted to force Zhu Taikan, the king of Lu, to do it himself. After all, he had the experience of fighting in Shandong back then, and Shen Yichen knew that the other party was a straw bag, and he couldn't control his emotions when he was used to it.

Only by completely beating the King Lu family can the matter of punishing the king be calmed down in public opinion, Shen Yichen does not want this old matter to be brought up all the time, and even become a handle for opponents and political opponents to attack.

Seeing that Shen Yichen was going to take down King Lu, King Xiang, King Zhao and others couldn't sit still, and thousands of palace guards also drew their blades to meet them, forming a state of confrontation with Jinyiwei.

The people who were standing in the distance and watching couldn't hear what Shen Yichen said, so they could only simply join in the fun. As a result, I looked at it and found that the two sides had reached the point of fighting each other, and this time it simply exploded.

"I'm not dazzled, is this a knife to the prince?"

A Jingshi shop owner, subconsciously rubbed his eyes twice, he had never seen this kind of scene in his life for decades, comparable to the siege of the Warat Tatars in the orthodox years!

"In order to cut the domain, Shen Ge Lao directly confronted the prince, will something happen?"

Another old man muttered worriedly, he fled from Henan to Jingshi, and knew that the local vassal king Meng Yuhu was good. In these years, it is rare to have a good official who dares to speak out about the disadvantages of the clan and the clan, and strongly advocates tax reduction and feudal reduction.

If you ask for sins because of this, the way of heaven will be too unfair.

"Shen Ge is old and young and reckless, how can the emperor's relatives touch it."

"What if you are demoted and sent to prison?"

"Endure the calm for a while, and if this continues, I am afraid that the "Sect and Domain Regulations" will be abolished."

All kinds of pessimistic voices came and went, and even the officers and soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division who maintained order had a nervous look on their faces at this moment. If the two sides really fight, it will be almost like a fight between immortals, and they don't know how to make a move.

"Shen Yichen, do you know that framing the prince is a crime?"

King Xiang could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and pointed at Shen Yichen and roared, this kind of behavior of clearly deducting the crime on the prince's head is simply unheard of!

It's good that Zhu Zhan didn't say this, but as soon as the words fell, Shen Yichen turned his gaze to him, and replied in a mocking tone: "When it comes to committing the crime of committing the upper ranks, the lower officials are far inferior to you, King Xiang." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhu Zhandong's expression instantly showed a touch of vigilance, and he had realized that there was something in Shen Yichen's words.

"Then the lower officials will not hide it, this time he led the Jinyi Guard to come in order to thoroughly investigate the rebellion of King Guangtong."

"King Xiang, this official suspects that you are the mastermind behind the scenes, and you have committed the crime of rebellion!"
