Chapter 315: There is always someone who is genuinely for you
Zhang Sheng, the governor of the Left Army, his father was Peng Chengbo of the Ming Dynasty, and the official was the commander of the Jingwei.
He has a very special relative, that is, the empress of the former Emperor Hongxi, and the current Empress Dowager Zhang.
This is also the reason why Zhu Zhanyan is so interested in him, because he really couldn't imagine that his cousin would even use his own uncle in order to die on the road.
But come to think of it, let Zhang Sheng, the uncle of the current emperor, negotiate with Wara, not to mention anything else, at least the credibility is multiplied.
It's just that no one may have expected that Zhang Sheng and Tuhuan commanded from afar in Helan Mountain, but they were finally caught.
After all, it stands to reason that although there are many people brought by Zhu Zhan, most of them are infantry from the side of the Wusi Zangdu Division, and although there are cavalry, there are still too few.
In the case of Zhu Zhan's attack, coupled with the lack of cavalry, no one thought that someone would make a detour to Helan Mountain and capture them, and the person who captured them was not Zhu Zhan's person.
No, it's not that no one knows, because there is a man who knows......
"Your Royal Highness, maybe you don't believe it, but if it weren't for me as the person who went to Warat on this trip, you might not have been able to catch the joy so smoothly."
Zhang Sheng's face was fearless, he tilted his head and looked straight at Zhu Zhanyan.
"Oh?" Zhu Zhanyan was slightly stunned.
After so many years, Zhu Zhanyan has not learned other skills, but he still knows how to observe words and feelings, and he can see that Zhang Sheng is not lying.
Of course, it may also be that Zhang Sheng is well hidden.
"Reason." Zhu Zhanyan knocked on the bookcase and looked at Zhang Sheng in front of him.
He wanted to see what tricks this emperor's uncle could play.
"Before I say that, I took the liberty to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, can I invite King Zhongyi over?"
Zhang Sheng tilted his head and looked outside.
Although Zhu Zhanyan was puzzled when he heard this, he still beckoned.
Although Timur was bent on making the whole world stable, Zhu Zhanyan could not guarantee whether he colluded with Zhang Sheng on the road, because it would be beneficial to many people.
Including Timur, because if he discussed with Zhang Sheng and firmly buckled the basin to Wara's body, then there were some actions that Zhu Zhanyan really didn't want to move directly.
"I've seen His Royal Highness."
Timur obviously knew what Zhu Zhan Yan was asking him to do, and as soon as he came in, he saluted Zhu Zhan Yan directly, and then reached into his arms and took out a letter.
Zhu Zhanyan's eyes narrowed slightly, took the letter, and opened it.
……
There are a lot of words on the letter, but Zhu Zhanyan read it quickly, because there is one thing written on it.
Zhang Sheng told Timur in advance what he was going to Warat, what to do and how to deal with it, and asked him to send troops around to the north of the Yellow River, and he would try his best to persuade Warat's people to go south.
In the end, Zhang Sheng succeeded, and Timur also succeeded, and he also caught the big fish of Dehuan.
The only problem was that Zhang Sheng did not leave early as they planned, but was caught in front of everyone.
This made Timur a little embarrassed, because their original plan was to let Zhang Sheng escape in advance, and he was arrested in front of everyone, and it was impossible for Timur to let him go, so he could only bring him over.
It's not that Zhu Zhan Yan didn't doubt the authenticity of this letter, but judging from the ink, the degree of damage, etc., this letter does not look like it was a temporary forgery, and in addition to this letter, there is another reason for Zhu Zhan Yan to feel that it is credible.
Tuhuan was caught by Timur without force.
If it is said that the dehuan is used as a bargaining chip, the court must be very willing, but if it is a temporary collusion, there is a high probability that it will not be possible.
First, if it weren't for the fact that he could ensure safety, Mahamu would not let his own son, who is also the established heir, take risks.
The second is because of Timur's behavior and course of action.
"What are you for?" Zhu Zhanyan folded the letter, put it in the envelope and put it in his arms.
With Zhu Zhanyan's signal, Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping also untied the rope on Zhang Sheng's body.
He rubbed his aching wrist, but Zhang Sheng didn't stand up, but knelt on the ground and said.
"For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, for the sake of the court, and for the sake of Your Majesty."
Zhu Zhanyan nodded slightly.
I have to say that although the current Empress Dowager Zhang is a woman, I have to say that she may be the most sober in the entire Ming Dynasty.
In addition, the Zhang family, as a relative, also did a good job, although Zhang Sheng was only the second son, but in order to send Zhang Sheng for this matter, I have to say that the Zhang family is still very decisive.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan was also very emotional.
No matter what you have fallen into, there will always be someone who is genuinely good for you.
"Get up...... Zhu Zhan sighed lightly and stretched out his hand to gesture to Zhang Sheng.
Zhang Sheng hesitated for a moment, and finally stood up, but he still didn't give up, and thought about continuing to persuade Zhu Zhanyan.
"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty's nature is actually not bad, this may not be clear to others, but you should be clear."
"Back then, you and Your Majesty accompanied Emperor Taizong to the northern expedition to the grassland, and no one knew Your Majesty's performance better than you at that time."
"It is undeniable that His Majesty has indeed changed now, but he is just in a hurry, because you are too good, which makes him feel a sense of crisis."
"Your Royal Highness, after this incident, no matter what the starting point is, but it is indeed me who contacted Wara to attack and kill the Daming clan and bring firearms to Wara, which is indefensible."
"It's not a pity for Zhang Sheng's death, but I hope His Royal Highness the Prince will think twice."
"If His Highness has a grudge, you can deal with Zhang Sheng as much as you want, but I hope Your Highness has a righteous heart and does not send troops."
"Once the army is dispatched, the world will be in chaos!"
"Zhang Sheng knows that the final victor will definitely be you, and he also knows that even after the chaos, Warat and the Eastern Chagatai Khanate will not be able to get half of the benefits in your hands."
"But please ask Your Highness to remember the love of blood relatives and Emperor Taizong's sake......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Sheng's face was serious, and he knelt on the ground again.
"Please be merciful to Your Highness."
……
It's night.
Zhu Zhanyan stood on the wall of Jingyuwei, looking at the darkness in the north in the dark night, and his heart was mixed.
How to deal with Zhang Sheng? Zhu Zhanyan hasn't thought about it yet.
Should you take the opportunity to make trouble? Zhu Zhanyan didn't think about it either.
In fact, before today, before Zhang Sheng appeared in front of him and said those words, he didn't feel much yet, and he was just angry.
He was angry that his cousin had no bottom line, didn't say anything to his own people, and gave the firearm to Warat.
But after Zhang Sheng said that, Zhu Zhanyan really hated it a little.
It seems that the two of them have never been equal, it seems that the starting line is the same, but in fact they are very different.
At the beginning, he was the son of the King of Han, and some only had his parents, and a group of generals who stood behind the King of Han for profit.
And Zhu Zhanji is the eldest grandson of the emperor, and he also has parents behind him, as well as civil officials who stand behind the princelings for the sake of interests.
But the difference is that Zhu Zhanji has more than that.
Old man, Yao Guangxiao, Jin Zhong, too many people stand behind Zhu Zhanji, even if some people are just for the stability of the Ming Dynasty, just for long-term consideration.
Zhu Zhanji knows that this difference in treatment is not a matter of people, but a matter of position, if he switches, his father is the crown prince, Zhu Zhanji's father is the king of Han, and the old man will also stand behind him.
Because their discrimination is based on location, and it has nothing to do with people.
But on what basis?
