Zhu Di has everything, Zhu Di is the son of Huang Gaozu, and he is the grandson of Huang Gaozu.

Zhu Di doesn't have it, he also has it, Zhu Di is brutal, he kills his relatives in righteousness, and he definitely stands at the height of etiquette and morality.

Zhu Gaoxu's words were about He Lu and Geng Qi, who were full of enthusiasm, but Xipinghou did not react much, probably assessing the success of this matter and the benefits he could get.

Now that their Mu family is Yongzhen Yunnan, to be honest, there is really no need to follow Zhu Gaochu to make trouble, even if he succeeds, how many higher benefits can Zhu Gaochu give him?

But the crux of the matter is that he is now being caught by Zhu Gaochu in public, and if he doesn't agree, Zhu Gaochu may not know what to do.

Zhu Gaoxu knew that he must get Mu Sheng's support in Yunnan, otherwise everything would be fake.

"The Marquis of Xiping knows, the entire battle of Jingyan, the big and small battles, all the hard battles, were won by me Zhu Gaoxu, without me Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Di can sit on this throne?"

"In terms of fighting, I have never lost, the Marquis of Xiping must believe me, Zhu Di's subordinates, most of the generals support me as the prince."

"So as long as we raise our troops, within three years, the odds of victory are very high."

"After the matter is completed, the Marquis of Xiping will be the king of Zhenxi, and the town of Yunnan will be forever for generations."

Zhu Gaoxu followed Zhu Di and learned a lot, such as painting a flatbread or something.

Unexpectedly, Xiping Hou smiled: "King Yan and King Ning said that they would divide the world equally. ”

"Didn't King Han say it just now, King Yan also told you that the prince has a lot of diseases, so let you reluctantly."

Hahaha, everyone in the house was smiling, faintly laughing at their father and son.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Gaochu asked with a straight face: "Has Xipinghou ever heard of me Zhu Gaoxu, who is untrustworthy?" ”

“。。” Everyone at the scene was stunned.

"When I went to Jingshi to find Li Jinglong, it was Huang Zicheng's daughter Huang Ying who helped me."

"After the army entered the Beijing Division, I searched all over the city, and I still don't know where I am, I suspect that I have been killed by my father, which is another reason why I am angry and raise troops."

"Gao Xu will never forget those who are kind to Gao Xu, no matter who he is, Gao Xu will definitely repay him."

Geng Qi immediately said: "Jingshi is talking about the King of Han, the King of Han is deeply affectionate, and he almost cut Tan Qing that day." ”

He Lu and the others fled early, they didn't know about it, and now Geng Qi said this, everyone couldn't help but be impressed, they didn't expect King Han to be so affectionate.

Xipinghou's face was slightly straight, and Zhu Gaoxu's search for Huang Ying all over the city was indeed known to the world.

It is said that he also clashed with Zhu Di's cronies.

In terms of credit, Zhu Gaoxu seems to be really much stronger than Zhu Di.

"People can't stand without faith, this simple truth, Gao Xu still understands." Zhu Gaoxu tried his best to tempt Xiping Hou.

But Xipinghou is not so easy to be fooled, because his support for Zhu Gaoxu's gain and contribution cannot be proportional at all.

He and He Lu looked at each other a few times, and said in a deeper voice: "What if I don't support King Han? ”

Zhu Gaoxu's face did not change, and said lightly: "Then I can only arrest He Lu and them first, and then torture them one by one, and they will definitely find out what I want?" ”

"What King Han said to us, aren't you afraid that we will tell Zhu Di?" Xiping Hou Road.

"I'll cut you down with a knife first, and then report it to my father, and lead the troops to fight back, intending to shield Emperor Jianwen."

Xiping Hou smiled bitterly: "It seems that I have to support King Han." ”

"Someone." Zhu Gaoxu was overjoyed: "Put incense on the case, I want to be brothers of the opposite sex with Xipinghou, heaven and earth are a mirror, live and die together, and never give up." ”

“。。” Xiping Hou.

"Xiping Hou is afraid that I will be the same as Zhu Di, and I will not talk in the future, let's swear on the same day today, and you can testify." Zhu Gaoxu has more routines than his father Zhu Di, and after this operation, not only his own subordinates witnessed the scene, but also what happened to them, and he was really convinced.

Xipinghou couldn't regret it at this time, if he didn't cooperate with Zhu Gaoxu, he would cut him with a knife, he absolutely believed that Zhu Gaoxu would dare to do this.

At the moment, soon the incense case was placed, Zhu Gaoxu's subordinates Zhou Hu and Dian Sheng were there, and the two followers outside Xipinghou were also called in to testify, plus He Lu and them, there were more than a dozen people on the scene, and the scene was very grand and convincing.

He Lu's expressions were a little excited, of course they didn't want to hide in this kind of ravine for the rest of their lives, as long as Zhu Gaoxu's rebellion was successful, they could all return to the prosperous Jingshi.

If you want to say that you support Zhu Gaoxu's army, they are raising their hands and feet.

"The emperor is above, you witness, today I, Zhu Gaoxu, and Xiping Hou Musheng have become brothers of the opposite sex, and from today onwards, we will unite as one to resist the Yan rebellion and -——"

"If he violates his oath in the future, he will break his oath and let Zhu Gaoxu suffer from ten thousand arrows piercing his heart and splitting the corpses of five horses, and the whole family will not die well, and he will be cut off from his children and grandchildren, and the sky will thunder and -——."

The ancients must have been more sworn by this trick, so Zhu Gaoxu said it very seriously, and he tried his best to reflect his sincerity.

Zhu Gaoxu's oath completely shocked them.

Xipinghou could only smile bitterly when he heard it, and read it with Zhu Gaoxu.

There were also pheasants raised in the yard at the scene, directly cutting the head of the chicken, drinking blood wine, and the two became brothers in public.

"The eldest brother is above, please accept the younger brother's worship." After Zhu Gaoxu finished bowing, he immediately bowed.

"Gao Xu, hurry up." Xiping Hou Musheng was relieved and quickly helped him up.

He was very smart and immediately said: "When the matter is not completed, we still commensurate with the words of the official, so as not to make people suspicious." ”

"But at the behest of the eldest brother." Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile.

Xipinghou was stunned.

Zhu Gaoxu changed his words again: "Listen to Xipinghou." ”

Xipinghou smiled at this time.

Being able to get the support of Xipinghou, Zhu Gaoxu instantly felt that his success rate had increased greatly.

The Mu family has been operating in Yunnan for many years, from local officials to generals in various health offices, most of them are the confidants of the Mu family.

Although Zhu Di did some things after ascending the throne, he was replaced by the highest-level generals, that is, Zheng Xiang and the four commanders.

And below the commander of the same knowledge, there are all commanders, commanders of each guard, commanders of the same knowledge, commanders of affairs, thousands of households, deputy thousands of households, etc., basically all of the Mu family's henchmen.

Soon, Xipinghou, He Lu, and Zhu Gaoxu came to another secluded house, and the three of them sat around.

"How do we do that?" Mu Sheng asked Zhu Gaoxu.

In fact, he just heard Zhu Gaoxu say that he felt a little reliable when he started the army in about three years.

If Zhu Gaoxu is in a hurry to fight for his position, he will doubt whether it is reliable.

"We want to fight a war near Yunnan, and the more chaotic it is, the more chaotic it becomes, for example, to fight Annam." Zhu Gaoxu knew that Zhu Di would fight Annan in a few years, but he wanted to fight in advance now.

"Why did you fight Annan?" Xipinghou asked.

"The Red River Plain in Annam is a major grain producing area, where the four seasons are like spring, and rice can be planted for two or even three seasons a year, and the yield is higher than that of the Central Plains."

"Seaports and shipyards can be built along the coast south of Annam."

"I want to have my own shipyard and warship."

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if we lose, we can still avoid overseas."

"You can also train troops in Annam and recruit local mountain people to facilitate training and provide strong reinforcements."

"The most important thing is that as long as there is a war, there is military power."

With military power, you can do a lot of things.

"What's going on with Annan now?" He Lu asked Xiping Hou.

Xipinghou really knows better, after all, he is the next-door neighbor.

He said slowly: "The royal family of Annam was originally the Chen Dynasty-"

In 1225, the female emperor of the Ly Dynasty of Vietnam, Li Zhao Huang Chan, was located in Tran Xuan and the Tran Dynasty was established. The Chen Dynasty continued to use the name of Li Chaoguo "Da Yue" internally and the foreign name "Annam". Because the monarch's surname was Chen, it was known as the Tran Dynasty in history, and the capital was located in Thang Long (now Hanoi, Vietnam).

However, in the Jianwen period, that is, in 1400, Hu Jichen, a relative of the Chen Dynasty, usurped the throne and changed the name of the country to Dayu, the Chen Dynasty perished, and the following year he gave way to the second son Hu Hancang, and the emperor was still in charge of the government.

So now Annam is already the Great Yu Dynasty, in addition to Chen Shaodi Chen An is also under house arrest in Thang Long, members of the royal family of the Chen Dynasty are still taking refuge everywhere, including those who came to Yunnan to seek refuge and seek help from the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, Emperor Jianwen was inseparable from Zhu Di, and no one in the court paid attention to them.

Xiping Hou said: "Now is indeed a good opportunity, the Chen Dynasty is falling, asking for help from the suzerain, this is a good excuse to send troops." ”

"Externally, find a way to get the imperial court to raise troops to fight Annan." Zhu Gaoxu said: "Internally, gradually control all local civil and military forces. ”

"In short, here in Yunnan, the more chaotic the better."

——

In June of the first year of Yongle, Ming Chengzu married his daughter Princess Changning to Mu Xin, the younger brother of Xiping Hou Musheng.

In August, a large number of high-ranking generals in Yunnan were replaced.

In September, Zhu Gaoxu went to Yunnan, and in mid-September, Mu Sheng asked him to send his son Mu Bin to Beijing to study (in fact, he was a hostage), and Zhu Di expressed his commendation and rewarded Mu Sheng with a large number of treasures.

One day in mid-September, the Yunnan Military Commander's Office.

Zheng Xiang had been the commander of Dali Wei in Yunnan for ten years before, and he was also a veteran cadre in Yunnan.

In the past ten years, he has a very good relationship with Mu Sheng, after all, in Yunnan, most of the middle and high-level generals are considered Mu Sheng's people.

Because in the military circles of Yunnan, except for the commander of the capital, the appointment of officials at this level is decided by the imperial court, and the rest of the guards below the command are basically recommended by the Mu family, or must be recognized by the Mu family.

This is to ensure the dominance of Yunnan in the Mu family, which can effectively raise troops to deal with all situations.

After all, Yunnan is different from other provinces, Yunnan Luchuan has repeatedly raised troops to make rebellion, and the Ming Dynasty has used troops against Yunnan many times, if you can't effectively use your own people, the Mu family's orders can't be completely implemented.

Zheng Xiang was able to be the commander of Dali Wei at the beginning, also because he had been with Mu Ying and had a good relationship with the Mu family.

Of course, he also had a relationship with King Yan, and he had a good relationship with King Yan.

So Zheng Xiang is a delicate person.

Since returning to Yunnan as a military commander, Zheng Xiang has felt that he has had a headache and is in a bad mood recently.

Yunnan used to have the position of chief military officer, which was basically held by people from the Mu family during wars.

This time, Zhu Di appointed him as the commander of the army, which felt very strange.

But his task was to lead the three guards of the Han king.

But Zheng Xiang has a ratio in his heart, the three guards of the King of Han are all cronies of the King of Han, and he is all Mao.

But there was no way, the emperor gave an order, and he could only come to Yunnan to serve.

After meeting the King of Han, Zheng Xiang was even more convinced in his heart that the King of Han and the emperor were not as harmonious as they seemed.
