When Zhu Di heard that his father had announced to the world that his eldest brother's sister-in-law Zhu Yunwen was the prince, he felt as difficult as turning the river and the sea in his heart, and he didn't know the next few words of the eunuch, so he couldn't help but get up and roared: "The son wants to go to meet his father in front of the emperor." He came thousands of miles from Beiping, and when he arrived here, he was within easy reach of Yingtian, thinking of the position of the prince who was one step away from him, and his chest was naturally full of unwillingness.

Jiang Xian, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, saw that Zhu Di was so out of shape when he lost his soul, and coldly said: "My emperor's personal will is here, does Your Highness have to resist and disobey the will?" Yan Ba stretched out his left hand to take the holy decree from the eunuch's hand, and came to Zhu Di to unfold it.

Zhu Di was familiar with the handwriting of his father Zhu Yuanzhang, and he naturally saw it at a glance under his glance, and his eyes swept over Jiang Xian's side with his right hand, which was already three inches out of the sheath, and the cold spring knife flickered, Huo Ran was awake in his mind, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, solemnly took the holy decree with both hands, and finally said after a moment of silence: "Son, son-in-law Zhu Di takes the decree." "Don't say that you came alone today and have no power to resist, even if you have thousands of troops and horses, you dare to rebel against your father? Although he has gone through battles and is fearless, in the face of the current founding king of the Ming Dynasty, his father Zhu Yuanzhang, still can't afford the slightest courage to rebel. What is more important is that the holy decree has been announced to the world, and at this moment, the overall situation has been decided, and he is powerless to return to heaven.

Seeing that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, re-boarded the ship under the escort of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, sailed towards the north, and his back full of loss gradually drifted away. Jiang Xian, who was sitting on the dock immediately, couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, in his heart, he naturally hoped that Jinyiwei could use Zhu Di's accession to the throne to deal with those corrupt Confucian civil officials and survive in the Ming Dynasty for a long time, but His Majesty the Emperor had already made a decision, and he could not influence it in the slightest. Thinking of the scene of His Majesty the Emperor in the Imperial Study last night, Jiang Xian thought of the future fate of himself and the Jinyi Guards, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but flash a wry smile, and secretly thought to himself: Even if he knew that it was a road of no return, Jiang Mou had to go to the end. Thinking like this in his heart, he spurred his horse in his hand and led a group of Jinyi Guard's subordinates to turn around and go to the sky.

In the early morning, Zhu Quan, who was wearing a python robe, stepped out of King Ning's mansion, took the reins of "dark clouds covering snow" handed by Ma Sanbao, frowned, turned over on the horse, and slowly walked along the long street. A few days ago, Zhu Yuanzhang's message came from the palace, asking him to stay in Yingtian temporarily, and in desperation, he had to resist the impulse to turn back to Daning and stay in the palace, but at this time he went to Fengtian Temple to participate in the early dynasty.

In the spacious Fengtian Palace, Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, who was wearing a big red lion official uniform, stood solemnly beside Fu Youde, the Duke of Yingguo, thinking about Zhu Biao's death, his heart was troubled, and he had long lost the joy of capturing and beheading the Yuelu Timur father and son, and the joy of the class teacher returning to the court, and he was not interested in the affairs of the civil officials, and he did not know what they were talking about.

After Zhu Yuanzhang handled the tax matter properly, Jiang Xian, who was wearing a flying fish official uniform behind Lan Yu, said loudly: "Weichen Jinyi Wei commanded Jiang Xian to play. ”

Seeing that this taciturn brocade guard leader who was regarded like a snake and scorpion by a group of clear streams on weekdays suddenly "had a book" today, they all frowned slightly.

When Zhu Quan heard Jiang Xian's words, he couldn't help but be slightly curious, and when he looked sideways, he couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, and secretly thought to himself: I don't know who will be unlucky. He knew in his heart that this Jinyi Wei leader, who was regarded as an enemy by a number of civil officials, not only had the duty of monitoring civil and military officials, but also was a great help for the current emperor Zhu Yuanzhang to investigate and deal with corrupt officials.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang, who was wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe, bowed his head slightly, he immediately said loudly: "According to the secret report of Weichen Jinyi's subordinates, Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, has widely accepted righteous sons in the army, solicited people's hearts, and secretly hid weapons in the mansion in an attempt to usurp rebellion. ”

When all the civil and military officials in Fengtian Hall heard Jiang Xian's words, they were all stunned, plotting to usurp was a big crime of raiding the family and destroying the door, not to mention that the crime was actually referring to the famous Liangguo Gong Lanyu? The Fengtian Temple was silent and fell into a dead silence.

Lan Yu thought that there was another good show between Jiang Xian and the civil officials, but at this time, when he heard that Jiang Xian was so shocking and slandered his words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly roared and said angrily: "How can this be true, Lan is loyal to His Majesty, and such words are just bullshit." He was an upright man with a fiery nature, and when he heard this sudden slander, he was furious.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, his face involuntarily became gloomy, and he waved his hand and shouted: "Take it down for me and interrogate it carefully." ”

Lan Yu couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and quickly took two steps and bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and said sharply: "Your Majesty ......"

At this moment, he saw Jiang Xian's figure not far behind Lan Yu in a flash, and he quickly came behind Lan Yu, and took advantage of the other party's confession to turn his back to him, punched out fiercely, and smashed Lan Yu's vest.

Rao is Zhu Quan is accustomed to battles, and suddenly saw such an earth-shattering scene, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, he still didn't come back to his senses.

Although Lan Yu is a fierce general who is accustomed to battle, he is not comparable to Jiang Xian, who is strong in martial arts, and is about to continue to defend himself, when he is about to continue to argue, he takes a punch in his heart, as if he was slammed by a thousand-pound hammer, and he can't help but spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth under the darkness in front of him, and the rest of the words can no longer be spoken.

Zhu Yuanzhang silently witnessed the scene in front of him, and shouted: "Where is the brocade guard in front of the palace? ”

Several brocade-clothed guards on duty outside the Fengtian Hall hurried in, holding the seriously injured and half-conscious Lan Yu away from the hall.

Although the civil officials in the DPRK and China did not like Lan Yu's arrogance on weekdays, at this time, seeing Zhu Yuanzhang using such a thunderous means to take down Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, they couldn't help but feel that everyone was in danger.

"Rebellion is not trivial. Zhan Hui, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and the commander of Jinyiwei made Jiang Xian investigate the matter in detail. Zhu Yuanzhang slowly stood up and said with a calm face.

Zhan Hui was originally a waiter of the Criminal Department, and only took over the post of Shangshu of the Criminal Department after accepting bribes and privately releasing death row prisoners to be executed. Thinking back to the things that I had heard about Lan Yu and the concubines of the former Northern Yuan Emperor in the past few days, I vaguely grasped something in my mind, although my face was pretending to be calm, my vest was already in a cold sweat.

Ying Guogong Fu Youde was shocked when he saw Lan Yu suddenly being taken down by Jiang Xian, but he didn't speak. Lan Yu is considered his old subordinate, and he knows his arrogant and domineering temperament very well, and he has also heard of adopting a righteous son among the generals in the middle of the army. Thinking of Li Jinglong, the former Duke of Cao Guo, and Muying, the Marquis of Xiping who guards Yungui today, are all the righteous sons accepted by the current emperor, Lan Yu's move is undoubtedly a big violation of Zhu Yuanzhang's taboo, although Fu Youde does not believe that Lan Yu will rebel, although his heart is like a heavy lead, but he also feels that it is not good to help Lan Yu exonerate this matter.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Zhu Quan turned around and left the Fengtian Hall with a heavy heart, and was about to leave the palace and return home along the wide imperial road, but he heard someone beside him whisper: "Your Majesty's dictation, see you in the imperial study of His Royal Highness." ”

Zhu Quan turned his head to look, and saw that it was Xue Jing, the head of the imperial study, who spoke, so he immediately turned around slightly and followed him.

After Xue Jing entered the palace, Zhu Quan stepped into the imperial study, and saw that Zhu Yuanzhang's face was gloomy, Rao is that he had also fought on the battlefield, and he was used to fighting, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart. At this time, he naturally knew in his heart that although Jiang Xian, the commander of Jinyiwei, had a grudge with Lan Yu in the past and held the command of Jinyiwei, he did not have the courage to openly slander Lan Yu in the court for personal grudges, but today's sudden change was arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Quan coming, and was about to speak, but he heard Xue Jing's voice play at the door of the study: "Jinyiwei commands Jiang Xian, and Chen Zhong should be commanded by the Tianfu Metropolitan Division to meet Your Majesty." ”

After a while, I only heard the sound of footsteps, but I saw a middle-aged man who was about forty years old, with a rough appearance and wearing armor, and Jiang Xian walked into the study to see Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Under the martial law of Tiancheng, Chen Zhong obeyed Zhu Quan's dispatch." Zhu Yuanzhang slowly sat down behind the desk and said coldly.

Chen Zhong heard Zhu Yuanzhang's command, and immediately bowed down to receive the order, and said loudly: "Weichen respects the order." He stood on one side.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Quan and said in a deep voice: "You and Jiang Xian immediately led Jinyiwei's subordinates to the Lanyu Mansion, detained his family, and confiscated evidence of conspiracy. ”

Although Zhu Quan was at odds with Lan Yu in the past, he didn't believe in his rebellion at all in his heart, but there was no way to escape the situation, so he had to bow down and reply: "The son obeys the order." After that, he led Chen Zhong and Jiang Xian left the study.

After Zhu Quan and the others were ordered to leave, the two people waiting outside the door immediately entered the study, knelt on the ground, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang. Wearing the armor of the Jinwuwei Forbidden Army, the man who is about thirty years old is in charge of commanding the 3,000 Jinwuwei Forbidden Army, and Wang Feng, the commander who is responsible for guarding the Forbidden City, while wearing the Jinyi Wei Feiyu suit and walking vigorously is Li Lin, who is currently responsible for commanding the one hundred and eight guards with swords in the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the two people who fell to the ground, and said coldly: "Close the gates of the Forbidden City immediately, except for Zhu Quan and Jiang Xian, no one is allowed to step into the Forbidden City, and the violators will not be spared." ”

Seeing that the emperor's voice was fierce, as if he was facing a great enemy, the two of them couldn't help but be awe-struck in their hearts, and they hurriedly knocked the leader's order to leave the imperial study to deploy.

Chen Zhong, who was responsible for commanding the troops and horses to defend Yingtian City, and the middle of his army were all the old troops of Li Jinglong, the former Duke of Cao Guo, and had nothing to do with Chang Yuchun and the lieutenant generals of the Lanyu Army. And Wang Feng, who commanded the Jinwuwei forbidden army, and Li Lin, who commanded the Jinyi guard in the palace, were promoted from their former military lineage, so the arrangement can be regarded as foolproof, thinking of this, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's heart couldn't help but relax slightly.

In the gatehouse of the Liangguo Mansion in Yingtian City, a group of pro-soldiers were drinking by themselves, watching a young man wearing a thousand official uniforms and several hundred households rolling dice and gambling, and a group of people were crowded in the small gatehouse and clamoring.

The one who was wearing the official uniform of the new thousand households, who was happily bringing the broken silver to his side, was the Wang Erhu who was ordered to protect Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, when Zhu Quan followed the blue jade army to conquer Nahachu. It turned out that he used to be a hundred households of Lanyu's own soldiers, and the accumulation of military merits had been promoted to the position of a thousand households, and he naturally had another place to live in Yingtian City, so he was helpless and very good at gambling.

When a group of soldiers were arguing, I saw a soldier guarding outside the gate of the mansion rushing in in a panic and said to Wang Erhu: "Second brother Wang, His Royal Highness King Ning led a group of brocade guards to come, saying yes, saying that he wanted to arrest my general's family." ”

Wang Erhu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and immediately laughed and scolded: "I think the prince has something to come to see Brother Lan, you must have heard it wrong, what are you arresting your family members and putting any bullshit?" ”

"The little one has lived in Yingtian for a long time, and he still doesn't recognize the official uniform of Jinyi Wei Feiyu?" The soldier hurriedly answered.

Wang Erhu couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and thought in his heart: Jinyi Wei is the emperor's own army, why is it led by the prince today? Thinking of this, he immediately reached out and took the waist knife placed on one side, and led a group of soldiers out to watch.

When he got out of the mansion gate, he saw Zhu Quan, who was running away in a python, standing on the clearing, but beside him was the leader of the brocade guard who was whipped by Lan Yu in the past. Behind the two stood hundreds of brocade guards wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives on their waists.

Seeing such a murderous aura, Wang Erhu's drunkenness suddenly disappeared, and he stepped forward and bowed and said, "Xiaguan Wang Erhu will see His Royal Highness." ”

Zhu Quan didn't expect Wang Erhu to be here today, and when he saw him step out of the Blue Jade Mansion, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Jiang Xian said coldly: "Lan Yu is guilty of rebellion and rebellion, and he has already been arrested and imprisoned, so why don't you tie your hands and arrest him?" After saying that, he waved his hand, and the brocade guards behind him pulled out the embroidered spring knives on their waists, and they were about to rush up and enter the mansion to arrest the Lan Yu family.

Wang Erhu saw the sudden arrival of a group of brocade guards, although he guessed that something was wrong, but he had no fear of this Jinyi guard commander who had been whipped by blue jade in the past, and he sneered when he heard this, and couldn't help but pull out the steel knife on his waist.

When Lan Yu's soldiers were all accustomed to fighting in battle formations, when Huo Ran was still confused, he saw Jinyiwei draw his sword, and out of instinct, he pulled out his waist knife, rushed forward, and stood behind Wang Erhu.

Although the Jinyi guards are numerous, most of the civilian officials who are arrested on weekdays are powerless to resist, when have they faced a group of fierce soldiers who survived the battlefield? Immediately, he felt an invisible murderous aura rushing to his face, and he involuntarily retreated down the steps.

Jiang Xian saw that Lan Yu's group of personal soldiers were so fierce and not afraid of death, and he was happy and worried, but he was happy that Wang Erhu led the crowd to resist, and it was undoubtedly easy to sit on the charge of Lan Yu's rebellion, but he was worried that he knew that Lan Yu's soldiers were known as the most elite division of the Ming Dynasty, and the personal soldiers who were responsible for guarding Lan Yu on the battlefield were all brave and good at fighting, and they were brave and incomparable, far from being comparable to ordinary Ming soldiers.

"Leave it all to the king." Seeing such a tense scene, Zhu Quan couldn't help but shout.

A group of brocade-clothed guards suddenly heard the violent shouting mixed with internal force, and couldn't help but feel worried in their hearts, and couldn't help but take two steps back.
