In the fourteenth year of orthodoxy, Zhu Quan died of illness, and Zhu Dianpei, who was only 31 years old, inherited the throne as a grandson.

However, the grievances and grievances between Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, did not end there.

Although Zhu Quan had no intention of fighting for power, his descendants felt that they had suffered a big loss, and the seeds of revenge were planted.

This rebellion was planned for three generations, until the Zhengde period, the fourth generation of Ning King Zhu Chenhao finally couldn't bear it, raised 100,000 troops, all the way to Nanjing, as a result, the court counterinsurgency soldiers and horses did not arrive, and they were cleaned up by Wang Shouren who suddenly appeared.

At this time, Zhu Dianpei did not have a strong desire to rebel, but he had ambitions.

He was unwilling to be a captive idle king, so he instilled the concept of rebellion in his descendants, and finally put it into action.

However, times have changed.

Zhu Qizhen didn't plan to raise these vassal kings as pigs, because ...... Waste of food!

In the Ming Dynasty, the prince's salary was very high, the prince was 10,000 stones, the county king was 2,000 stones, and the general of the town was 1,000 stones.

This is only on the surface, and the benefits behind it are immeasurable.

Even if the princes are all well-behaved and don't compete with the people for profit, but they are idle at home and have nothing to do, so they give birth to sons all day long, and these sons give birth to more sons, and in the end, half of the Ming Dynasty will be eaten by them!

Instead of letting these princes spoil the grain, why not scatter it...... What about stocking?

I'll give you money, food, soldiers, horses, weapons and equipment, which piece of land do you fancie, go fight it yourself!

Fight down, belong to the Ming territory, and you will personally sit in charge.

In this way, the vassal king is no longer a title, but a feudal kingdom again.

Within the feudal state, the vassal king is the emperor.

Of course, there are hidden dangers in doing this, because since the Jingjing, it has become an ancestral training for the vassal king not to take charge of the army.

However, Zhu Qizhen is not worried about this, if he wants to avoid the recurrence of the Jing Tribulation, it is very simple, he only needs to have strong enough strength.

If you want to rebel, come on, as long as you can withstand the bombardment of artillery, you can do whatever you want!

If you are ambitious and don't dare to rebel, then let's choose a place for you to vent your anger!

Of course, the places chosen for these princes tried to avoid friendly neighbors, such as Korea, Ryukyu, Ezo and other loyal brothers.

As for the Wa State, it is necessary to pay the garrison fee to the Ming Dynasty on a monthly basis, and it cannot be moved for the time being.

Ning Wang Zhu Dianpei saw that everyone was watching, and he couldn't sit still.

His ancestors are only one step away from becoming an emperor, and now that he has an opportunity, how can he let it go?

However, his mind is not limited to these, the land outside the territory of the Ming Dynasty, there are rich and barren, first come, first served, and it will be gone when it is late.

If you want to occupy a good place, you can't let others take the lead.

"You might as well calm down and think about it carefully, what is the intention of the emperor's move?"

Hearing this, Xiangwang Zhu Zhan was dissatisfied and said: "Why don't you say it first, what do you mean by this?" ”

Among all the princes, except for Zhu Qiyu, the king of Luzon, Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, and Zhu Qizhen, who were closest in blood, did not want to hear anyone say bad things about his eldest nephew, so he stood up.

In the crowd, Zhu Zhanyuan, the king of Zhao, said: "Don't quarrel, everyone, this matter is indeed a bit extraordinary, I shouldn't speculate about the holy will, it's better to go together tomorrow and ask the emperor in person to understand!" ”

Xiangwang Zhu Zhanyuan nodded and said: "That's fine, the province guesses, let's just ask!" ”

Ning Wang Zhu Dianpei looked around and said: "It's okay to go, but you must always make complete plans, no matter what the emperor says, everyone must leave a way back for themselves, right?" ”

King Zhao asked: "Don't sell Guanzi, what do you want to say, hurry up!" ”

King Ning took a sip of tea slowly, and then said: "The matter of our old Zhu family is not a secret, if you want me to say, the most important thing is to save your life, don't wait until something happens, and you don't know how you died." ”

King Xiang sneered, but did not speak.

King Ning continued: "Don't laugh, what I'm saying is the truth, if everyone has the heart to go out and break through, and the emperor supports it, it is naturally a good thing, but what if the emperor is a drunkard and doesn't want to drink?" The vassal king is not in charge of the army, but the ancestors are teaching, but everyone here wants military power, what kind of thoughts do you have? ”

King Xiang immediately retorted: "King Yu has just led his troops to capture Annam, and now he is guarding Luzon, if the emperor is really suspicious, why not issue an order to recall King Yu back?" ”

King Ning shook his head and said, "How do you know that the emperor has no suspicions about King Yu?" How do you know if the king is leading the troops outside, does he have two hearts? Taking a step back, what is the relationship between the Holy Lord and the King of Servants today, and what is the relationship between him and us? Fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers. You, King Xiang, are just uncles to put it bluntly, how can you compare to other people's brothers? ”

The two argued, and King Zhao interjected again: "There is no point in arguing, it is better for us to reach an agreement, in front of the emperor, no matter what the result is, we must advance and retreat together, even if the emperor has any ideas, we must also consider our opinions, what do you think?" ”

After hearing this, everyone nodded their heads.

In any case, as long as the vassal kings are united, the emperor must definitely consider carefully before making a decision.

King Ning said: "Then let's say it, I'll wait in front of the emperor, don't be in a hurry to make a statement, and see what the emperor is planning." ”

At this time, King Zheng asked, "If the emperor still asks about today's events, how should we answer?" ”

King Ning thought for a moment and said, "Just say that you think about it carefully." ”

King Zheng said again: "The emperor can say, the land outside the territory of the Ming Dynasty is not something we can go to if we want to, if this matter is true, first come, first served, and the later ones are afraid that they will not even be able to drink the soup." ”

King Ning was a little panicked in his heart, but he was very calm on the surface, shook his head and said: "Don't agree easily, see the emperor's intentions clearly, and then it's not too late to decide!" What is first-come, first-served, is purely for those of us to see. ”

King Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, just do as you say, do you still have any opinions?" ”

So far, everyone has chosen to support, and they are full of wine and food, and they go back to rest.

Zhu Qiyong came to his father's bedroom and asked, "Father, when we left Xiangyang, didn't you also say that we would wait and see, why did you not agree with King Ning's statement today?" ”

"Humph!"

Zhu Zhan snorted coldly and said, "My father said it, but I just can't get used to King Ning's appearance!" ”

"Then we went to see the emperor tomorrow, should we ......?"

"Don't rush yet!"

Zhu Zhan waved his hand and said: "The matter is still unclear, there is no harm in waiting, in case these people want to take the emperor's army, we can consider standing on the emperor's side." ”

Zhu Qiyong nodded and said, "The child knows!" ”
