Chapter 523: The mud always can't hold up the wall

Sun Ruowei's idea is very good.

Tongzhou is the gateway to Shuntianfu, if Tongzhou is held, although it cannot prevent Zhu Zhanqi from going north, it can at least be intercepted for a period of time.

But that's not the most important thing, the most important thing is that before the right name, Zhu Zhanyan can't openly break into Tongzhou.

And the Miaodao Islands are the gateway to Tongzhou, if the Miaodao Islands can be defended, then the emperor's chances of victory will be greater, because Zhu Zhan's strength is sea power, unless he tears his face, otherwise there is no room for Zhu Zhan to play.

At that time, if Zhu Zhanyan dares to break through, the people of Tongzhou and Shuntianfu, Sun Ruowei will not dare to say all, but she is confident that she will call on more than thirty percent of the people to resist Zhu Zhanyan.

At that time, Zhu Zhanyan fell into a situation where he could not advance or retreat.

If he breaks in, then he will be completely ruined, no matter how much he has contributed to Daming before, he will be just a thief in the future.

And reputation is not the most important thing, because Zhu Zhanyan doesn't care much about reputation in the first place, for Zhu Zhanyan, the most serious consequences of forcible breaking is the future.

Don't underestimate the ambitious people in this world, this kind of person doesn't know how many people there are, but if Zhu Zhanqi's throne is half flawed, he will have to face endless uprisings in the future, and the name of those ambitious people's uprisings is that little flaw.

When the time comes, the history pen is like iron, and Zhu Zhanyan will have a bad reputation in the history books.

But if you don't break through, it will be tantamount to giving up the opportunity to sit on the throne, and when Zhu Qizhen returns from the expedition, it will be even more difficult for Zhu Zhanyan to sit on the throne again.

Of course, all of this is based on Zhu Qizhen's ability to turn things around, otherwise......

Without Zhu Zhan's help, the collapse of the emperor's vein was like an avalanche, out of control.

……

Temple Island Islands.

Sun Ruowei's actions were still one step late, she was destined not to occupy the Miaodao Islands, even if she thought of this earlier than Zhu Zhanyan.

During the Eastern Expedition that year, Zhu Zhan Yan used the Miaodao Islands to arrange troops, and his familiarity with this place was far beyond that of a woman who had lived in the courtyard of the deep palace for a long time.

However, he will definitely not be able to occupy Tongzhou, after all, it is the gateway to Shuntianfu, and it is the fastest passage to enter Shuntianfu.

Not to mention that it started now, when King Wu withdrew from Shuntian Mansion, Sun Ruowei sent someone to take over this Tongzhou, and they were all distant relatives of the Sun family.

As for the in-laws...... Isn't that being pulled out as a scapegoat by the Empress Dowager Zhang, as for why you have to ask why there are still distant relatives left, instead of being disposed of together?

Sometimes, there are a lot of things that are done for you to see, and even if you know what's going on, you can't turn your face because it's not easy to verify.

The world is so big, it's too easy to hide a few people.

"Daddy......"

Just when Zhu Zhanyan was sitting alone in the tent and pondering, Zhu Qiming opened the curtain of the tent and probed his brain.

"What's wrong?" Zhu Zhanyan looked at his son.

"Cousin, he ......" Zhu Qiming wanted to speak and stopped, hesitated for a long time, and finally took out a letter from his sleeve pocket.

On it, there is a fire paint seal unique to the prince guard.

"Aren't you small?" Zhu Zhanyan raised his eyebrows, took the secret letter in his son's hand, and threw it into the brazier.

"You dare to stop even your father's letter from me first?"

"Huh!" Seeing that his father threw the letter into the fire without even looking at it, Zhu Qiming was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

"You haven't seen it yet!"

"Nothing to look at." Zhu Zhanyan glanced at his son very indifferently.

"There won't be any other news at this time, it's your cousin who went on the expedition, right?"

"Uh......" Zhu Qiming was speechless.

Indeed, this is exactly the news on the letter.

Although there will probably be no other news sent through the channel of the prince guarding at this time, what surprised Zhu Qiming was his father's attitude.

It's so calm, as if everything is under control.

Is this really the case?

Not all, Zhu Zhanyan himself can only be said to have a rough grasp.

Zhu Zhanyan knows very well that he himself is an existence that should not exist, because of himself, the trajectory of history has undergone a great shift, and there may be other changes.

For example, in history, because he "forced his father to die", Baozong turned to anger and strive to grow into a generation of Ming monarchs and the like.

At the very least, the name of Baozong may not be there in history, because this time Zhu Qizhen's expedition is different from history, Warat is mixed with the Eastern Chagatai Khanate this time, and even some of the Kansai Seven Guards participated.

Therefore, the direction of Zhu Qizhen's expedition this time is Liangzhou, not the north.

And the reason why Zhu Zhanyan is very calm is because he can roughly grasp the situation of Shuntianfu, and knows that although his nephew is not very wasteful, he is not much better.

Facts have proved that Zhu Zhanyan's opinion of Sun Ruowei is still a bit pertinent, a woman with ambition and resentment, when raising children, she will subconsciously cultivate in the direction of revenge, rather than a normal and excellent direction.

However, things are predestined for the world, and sometimes it is difficult for humans to intervene.

Even if Zhu Zhanyan was prepared that Zhu Qizhen would not become the Castle Sect and the Son of Heaven, the inertia of history made many coincidences promote the occurrence of other things.

……

Zhu Zhan Yan seized the Miaodao Islands, and although he did not continue to advance, he had already put great pressure on the imperial court.

When Emperor Taizong was still in power, Zhu Zhan Yan became famous, and he achieved quite unexpected results with a set of unusual methods, which eventually led Emperor Taizong to adopt Zhu Zhan Yan's opinion and take the ram school as the official school.

However, with the withdrawal of King Wu from Shuntianfu and the orthodox emperor taking over the power, in order to completely crack down on the power and foundation left by King Wu in the Ming Dynasty over the years, after taking over the power, Sun Ruowei abolished the ram school as soon as possible, and re-established Cheng Zhu Lixue as an official school.

In addition, Sun Ruowei also promoted a group of old Confucian students before the establishment of the Ram School as an official school at the fastest speed, and these Confucian students were all scholars of Cheng Zhu Lixue.

This also led to this expedition, not only Sun Ruowei, the queen mother, who was anxious, but also Cheng Zhu, who was promoted by Sun Ruowei, was also anxious.

is even more anxious than Sun Ruowei.

From the Yongle Dynasty to the present, even if they were only in their teens and twenties at that time, they must be forty or fifty years old now, and they are witnesses to the alternation of power.

They are very clear about the ending of the former Cheng Zhu Bachelor of Science.

Even the three Yangs who have reached the height of the cabinet have been purged, if there is another change of power, what will be the final outcome of these re-sensed Cheng Zhu scholars?

The results speak for themselves.

Therefore, although Wang Zhen is still as favored as in history, this expedition also passed by Wang Zhen's hometown as in history, but he failed to stay.

When passing by, because even if it is a diversion, going from Shuntianfu to Liangzhouwei is just passing by Wang Zhen's hometown, rather than a deliberate detour as in history.

Other than that, there was no sudden heavy rain this time as in history.

But......

As the so-called heaven is a good reincarnation, who is spared by the sky.

What they once imposed on others will eventually be returned to them in the same way.
