Chapter 91: The Prince's Death

Different people focus on different things.

If King Yan doesn't understand the new law and the old law at all, it is false. But if King Yan knows too much about the new law and the old law, it is also false.

Although He Xi continued to propagate new ideas and set up a separate school among Confucianism, he taught many disciples. However, among these disciples, there are not many who truly understand the new law, as well as He Xi's interpretation of political economy and the theory of productive forces.

The reason is simple.

The Confucian set is something that many people have seen. and participate in the practice. Already exists. The theories put forward by He Xi are brand new and have never been done before. No matter how He Xi explains and publicizes, it is difficult for people to understand and support something that has not been seen before.

Yan Wang is also like this, Yan Wang's feelings about the new law and the old law are purely from a practical point of view, and he does not think that the new law must be good and the old law must be bad. However, the new law is indeed very useful in many places.

But King Yan's view on the matter in front of him is from the perspective of the ruler, that is, it doesn't matter what I say. The important people below are not obedient.

Whether the people below are obedient or disobedient is more important than what I do.

Why is the deer referred to as a horse, and this allusion has been passed down through the ages? This is essentially a test of obedience.

As a superior, you don't care about whether it's right or not, you only care about obedience or not?

This is the background color of King Yan. As a general, he knows that slashing people with a knife will die, and the soldiers below must unconditionally obey the orders of their superiors, and those who do not obey will die. As for what went wrong with the emperor and what was wrong with the imperial court, I'm sorry, it's not for you Riba people to understand.

Those who do not obey die.

It's as simple as that.

The prince looked at King Yan and didn't know how to deal with King Yan's words for a while.

A thought suddenly came to the prince's heart, and he said secretly: "Perhaps, I am really not suitable to be the emperor." ”

What the prince lacks the most is also the most surplus thing of King Yan. What the prince lacks most is the courage to be arbitrary, the courage to swing a knife at anyone, and the courage to smash a plate. Don't obey my orders, dare to overturn everything and start over.

But King Yan is the least lacking in this, this is a master who is in a hurry and dares to swing a knife at anyone.

The biggest problem with the prince's personality is that he pursues perfection and wants to satisfy anyone. Recognized by everyone, but unbeknownst to everyone, the emperor himself is a loner. You can't have both, perhaps, when the contradictions in the court are relatively small, you can prevaricate in the past. That's why the crown prince can be the king of the guard. But in the case of sharp contradictions in the imperial court, almost either/or, and endless, the prince could not deal with it.

Never die? Kill whom? No matter how you move, it will be millions of corpses and bleeding for thousands of miles.

In the prince's heart, he suddenly had a thought, and said secretly: "In history, the fourth brother is the emperor, since this is the case in history, it means that the will of heaven is so, why should I go against the will of heaven?" The prince suddenly said, "Fourth brother." ”

King Yan said: "The younger brother is here. ”

The prince said: "I have not been in good health these years, and I don't want to live long, the early Ming Dynasty was established, and the country depends on Changjun, how about this storage position for you?" ”

When King Yan heard this, he was almost instantly frightened into a cold sweat. King Yan secretly said in his heart: "This is still the eldest brother of the prince?" What a vicious heart. ”

King Yan had originally relaxed his vigilance against the crown prince. After all, in the impression of King Yan, the crown prince has always been good. But the prince's words broke King Yan's so-called illusion.

King Yan knows his status, as the most prestigious prince among the princes, except for the most prestigious prince of the crown prince, and even has the support of other princes, whether King Yan wants to or not, in the next few decades, he will probably be the elder of the Ming Sect. In ordinary families, most of them are elders who can compete with the patriarch.

It's dangerous.

This is also the reason why King Yan came to see the prince with such a heavy heart.

The last time the person in this position was none other than him. It's the King of Qin.

And the king of Qin is already dead.

In King Yan's opinion, this is the prince's plan to kill, yes, this is a plot to kill him.

The prince's such thing as letting the storage position is a joke.

Guy Zhu Biao is not an ordinary prince, Zhu Biao, the prince of the country, is really powerful, and almost all the civil officials in his hands are under the command of the prince.

If it weren't for the difficulty of changing the crown prince, Zhu Yuanzhang would not have been so hesitant.

Since it can't be changed, the prince wants to say that it will be changed.

That is, to hold King Yan high, not to mention anything else, today's words will be spread, without the help of the prince, there will be countless Confucian ministers, desperately impeaching King Yan, and even at the expense of King Yan.

It is true that this is the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and the power of civil officials is not great, not enough to put a prince to death, but it is also very disgusting. If King Yan wants to recruit talents from the Central Plains, he will also be greatly suppressed. The hat of a bad minister and thief was hung on the head of King Yan.

If the prince had any backhand, King Yan would not dare to predict his fate.

King Yan wanted to understand this, gritted his teeth in his heart, knelt on the ground without saying a word, and said: "The words of the eldest brother have been orderly since ancient times, and the younger brother will never dare to have the heart of transgression. If the eldest brother doesn't believe it, the younger brother will judge himself here to thank the world. ”

King Yan naturally didn't want to die.

But the prince did this, and even said that he would let the storage position be made. King Yan naturally wants to be more ruthless. The words of self-judgment are spoken. King Yan calculated that the prince was unwilling, after all, the death of a King of Qin had already greatly damaged the prince's reputation, and if another King Yan died, the prince would not have any reputation.

And this is what the prince values the most.

But he didn't know that after listening to King Yan's words, the prince really wanted King Yan to cut himself here.

It's just an idea.

The crown prince's feelings for King Yan are complicated.

If King Yan really harbors evil intentions at this moment and hopes to save the throne, the prince can really have the heart of a killer, but the prince has already tested King Yan several times, and has decided that King Yan wants to go to Mobei, and even King Yan wants to sweep the northwest and establish a great empire with a territory of thousands of miles, and the prince also knows it.

After all, it's easy for the prince to really want to know something. Jinyiwei's resources were almost completely open to the crown prince.

But this ambition, the prince doesn't think there's any problem, and there is an idea that it should be so, after all, even if you don't say it, King Yan can become the Ming Emperor in history, just the son of his father, shouldn't he be born with great ambitions and ambitions?

Now, the position of the crown prince makes Zhu Biao panic and restless, and sometimes, he really wants to let it out. The sentence just now was a gaffe. But it's true. Because Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is the most promising one among all the younger brothers of the prince. is also because Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is the most promising one among all the younger brothers of the prince. There is also the prestige of the Yongle Emperor. It is also the protagonist of the prince's greatest fear of historical reproduction.

To a certain extent, deep down, the crown prince is not too opposed to giving up the throne to King Yan, but what he is worried about is that King Yan is cruel to his children and grandchildren. Thinking of the fate of his vein in history, the prince had a killing intent in his heart.

But the prince knows better that in the current situation, he has lost the position of the prince, and the fate of his vein will definitely not be too good.

This is the binding of power, forever power is naturally good, but if you lose, sometimes you lose not only power but also life, this is not because King Yan is kind to his nephew, even if King Yan intends to reduce the punishment of the prince's lineage, the prince's old department will not give up the support for the prince's lineage.

That's why, in the Orthodox Dynasty, the ban on the Jianshu people was lifted. Because at that time, the old party of Jianwen was really washed away by time.

Yongle in history may have hatred for Jianwen, but he may not have much hatred for the other descendants of the prince, but the reality is so cruel. This is the rule in the power field.

With a little wry smile, the prince said, "Why should the fourth brother be like this, he is lonely. Then he said sharply to the people around him: "Today's words must not be passed on." Otherwise, it will be cut immediately. ”

The eunuchs around the crown prince immediately agreed not to mention it.

It seems that what happened today can be treated as if it never happened.
