Chapter 168: The East Palace Rebellion!
Xu Qin gritted his teeth, he had a very clear influence on King Qi, the bastard.
The two were of the same age, but Xu Qin was born a few months earlier than Zhu Gaoxian, so King Qi had to call him a cousin.
Since the Hongwu Dynasty, his father has been at odds with Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and his family, but because Zhu Di is his uncle, there is still a little incense between the two families.
It's just that when Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne and intended to cut the domain, the Duke of Wei, who was a pure minister of Jianwen, would not give Zhu Di face anymore, and he couldn't wait to get the Yan Wang's family to death.
At that time, Zhu Di's four sons were taken to Jinling City as hostages, Xu Qin followed his father to take a look, and at that time he felt that the Yan Wang family was very rebellious.
The boss Zhu Gaochi seems to be a mellow and simple, but in fact, the city is unfathomable.
The second child, Zhu Gaoxu, is cunning and fierce, and this son will be the arm of King Yan in the future.
The third child, Zhu Gaosui, has a belly of bad water, and is good at calculation.
And Xu Qin's best sense is the fourth child Zhu Gaoxian, the fourth child is Zhu Di's youngest son, with a thin figure, looks quite like an aunt, looks good-looking and quiet, usually sits alone under the tree, tame like a little beast.
At that time, Xu Qin thought that Zhu Di had given birth to four sons, and the fourth child was the most unproductive.
He never expected that after more than ten years, the tame and lovely "Zhu Xiaosi" back then has now become the arrogant and domineering King Qi, rampant and unscrupulous, overpowering Zhu Di's other three sons!
"Cousin, I see that you are quite idle in the middle of the night, and you still have time to take the army out for a walk, since you have so much time, why don't you come with me?" Zhu Gaoxian said with a smile.
"Not necessarily."
Xu Qin's face was gloomy, "I still have military affairs in my body, Your Majesty gave me the border to enter Beijing, please give way to the prince!" ”
"Oh, really?" Zhu Gaoxian raised his eyebrows slightly, "I just came from Your Majesty, why haven't I heard about this, Wei Guogong, you should tell me, where did this defense come from, so that I can also check it?" ”
"King Qi, you have crossed the line." Xu Qin was still reluctant to let go, "In Jianzhou, you are the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and in Annan, you are the commander of the Southwest Army, but in the capital, do you have a tiger talisman?" What right do you have to question me? ”
"Oh, I'm sorry?"
Zhu Gaoxian took out the tiger talisman and said shyly, "Your Majesty gave me the Twelve Tiger Talismans, and all the gates and all the armies in the capital must obey my orders tonight, and you are no exception." ”
Each army corresponds to a different tiger talisman, and the upper twelve guards are different, the twenty-two pro-army guards share the same tiger talisman, and the tiger talisman is divided into two, and the guard general and the emperor each hold half of it.
Those who hold the Twelve Tiger Guardian Talismans can mobilize all the troops and customs authorities in the capital during the special period, and those who disobey the military orders will be killed!
Don't talk about you, Xu Qin, the down-and-out Duke of Wei, even if your grandfather, Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, comes back to life, he still has to obey orders!
At this point, Xu Qin knew that there was no room for maneuver, he clenched the long knife at his waist, took a deep breath and prepared to fight to the death.
"Wei Guogong!"
At this time, Zhu Gaoxian suddenly shouted, "If you dare to rebel, I can easily suppress you, you know this truth in your heart!" ”
Xu Qin clenched the hilt of his knife and reprimanded angrily: "Why am I afraid of death, King Qi, what are you!" ”
Zhu Gaoxian shrugged his shoulders: "I really can't count anything, but I can kill you at any time, and I can also let you erase your and your father's names from the genealogy of the Xu family of Zhongshan King after you die, remove all the merits that your father Xu Huizu received during his lifetime, and erase all the historical traces of Wei Guogong's existence in Daming......"
"How dare you!"
Xu Qin was shocked and angry, "I, the Duke of Wei, have made contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and the first Duke of Wei is the first hero, the founding of the six kings, known as the Ming Dynasty, how dare you do this!" ”
This King Qi is inevitably too ruthless!
Xu Qin has lived until now, his father was imprisoned and died by Zhu Di, his uncle is no different from the enemy who killed his father, his aunt is the daughter-in-law of the enemy who killed his father, and several cousins and cousins hate him even more, Dingguo Gong, who is also in the same line of the Xu family, helps his father-killing enemy, he feels like a rootless duckweed floating on the sea, there is nothing to care about.
Is this really the case?
Not!
Xu Qin still cares about one thing - the title of Duke of Wei!
He is not a person who is obsessed with fame and status, if he is really a person who pursues power and profit, then he can lick his face and be a dog for Zhu Di, and Zhu Di, who loves Queen Xu and Wu, will not treat Xu Qin too harshly.
But the hereditary title of Duke of Wei was the result of his grandfather Xu Danan's expedition to the north, and it took 20 years for Rong Ma to exchange the words "hereditary replacement" for his descendants. If the title of Duke of Wei is lost by him Xu Qin, after he dies, as soon as he sees his father Xu Huizu in the Netherworld, Xu Huizu will have a big-eared thunderbolt fan!
After Xu Huizu finished fanning, Xu Da followed up with another big-eared thunderbolt!
"The descendants of the founding heroes of the King of Zhongshan will not die!"
Xu Qin angrily reprimanded, "If you dare to remove the title of Duke of Wei, do you dare to meet Taizu when you die!" ”
"What am I afraid of?" Zhu Gaoxian sneered, "You are planning to rebel, not to mention the removal of your Duke of Wei, what if I demolish the grave of your grandfather Xu Da!" ”
Xu Qin was shocked: "My grandfather is your grandfather, you dare to dig your grandfather's grave?" ”
This Nima!
What kind of person is this!
This can't be described as a ruthless person, this is simply crazy!
Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, is Queen Xu's father and Zhu Gaoxian's grandfather! This kid is really ruthless, he will dig up his grandfather's grave if he doesn't agree with him?
"Do you think I dare?" Zhu Gaoxian sneered, "I'm not digging my grandfather's grave, I'm digging the grave of the thief Xu Qin's grandfather!" This is called righteous annihilation! ”
"Xu Qin, now order your troops to lay down their arms, give up resistance, and choose to surrender when they are tied up, the sea of bitterness is boundless and turn back to the shore, it is your best choice, I advise you not to do unnecessary resistance, you will not only affect yourself, but also these subordinates behind you, and the graves of your father and grandfather!"
"As King Qi, I promise that as long as you choose to surrender, I will not be angry with your father and your grandfather's mausoleum!"
Xu Qin's people are numb, the reason why he dared to rebel is because he has no concern, even if Zhu Di is angry and the Xu family is implicated, Xu Qin doesn't care, although the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Dingguo are brothers, but now they have already turned against each other.
As for whether Zhu Di will attack the first two generations of Wei Guogong, Xu Qin doesn't care even more, the first two generations of Wei Guogong, Xu Da is Zhu Di's father-in-law, Xu Huizu is the uncle of the country, can Zhu Di still attack his own family?
But he never expected that King Qi, a brute, was really ruthless!
Now Xu Qin is in a dilemma, come down, unwillingly, don't come down, what if King Qi, the beast, really digs his ancestral grave?
Damn, this beast King Qi!
"I ...... ...... Down"
Xu Qin hesitated for a long time, and finally said this sentence weakly.
……
East Palace.
In the middle of the night, the brightness of the torches suddenly lit up, and it was noisy, Zhu Gaochi crawled out of the quilt in a daze, and hurriedly walked out before the buttons on his clothes were fastened.
As soon as he went out, Zhu Gaochi gasped, and saw the jackals, tigers and leopards of the dense brocade guards, the imperial eagle dogs occupied all the strategic points that needed to be controlled in the East Palace, as long as there was a little wind and grass, they could suppress the East Palace at any time.
"Brother, what do you mean by that?" Zhu Gaochi was a little confused.
He didn't react, he had been imprisoned for a few months, how could he still find something to find his head, and it was unreasonable!
Aren't you bullying honest people!
Among the sword-wielding horses of the Jinyi Guard, one of them turned over and dismounted, wearing a flying fish suit, holding an embroidered spring knife, with a bee waist and a tiger's back and mantis legs, a good spy leader.
"Jinyi Weibei Town Fu Si is also in charge of the South Town Fu Si Zhen Fu Envoy, Lu Chaoyang, see His Royal Highness the Prince." Lu Chaoyang held the handle of the embroidered spring knife in his hand and arched his hand.
Although it is a salute, this arrogant and uninhibited appearance is clearly here to find fault.
Also, since Ji Gang and Luo Xiu, Jinyiwei has no commanders, and Lu Chaoyang, the pacification envoy of the two major towns and government departments in the north and south, has become the biggest spy leader in the Ming Dynasty, with tens of thousands of eagle dogs under his command, and the big Buddha of King Qi behind him, there are really few people who can put him in his eyes.
"Lord Lu, visiting late at night, I don't know what's going on?"
Even the prince Zhu Gaochi, who has always been good-tempered, couldn't help but be a little angry, "My East Palace didn't provoke you Jinyiwei, if you don't give me an explanation today, Lu Chaoyang, you really can't help it?" Are you really the prince who has lost my power and can be bullied? ”
"The minister doesn't dare, but the minister is here, not out of nowhere else." Lu Chaoyang did not have the slightest fear of the prince's coercion, and said lightly, "Jinyi Wei is ordered by His Majesty to search for those involved in rebellion. ”
"Together, you came to my East Palace to get someone." Zhu Gao laughed angrily, "Okay, I'll let you search casually, and the investigation has found my house, Lu Chaoyang, let me tell you, it's okay if you find it out today, if you can't find it, do you really think that this prince is a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch?" ”
Zhu Gaochi didn't believe in Lu Chaoyang's nonsense at all, fuck, my East Palace was surrounded by the pro-army guards of the Twelve Guards, and he stared at it like a cat staring at a mouse every day, which fool ate the bear's heart and the leopard dared to choose this time to rebel?
Lu Chaoyang waved his hand and shouted: "Take people!" ”
At the sound of the order, the eagle dogs and horsemen rushed in like wild dogs smelling the smell of meat, and searched the East Palace like wings.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Gaochi also sensed that something was wrong in his heart.
Lu Chaoyang's posture really doesn't look like pretending.
Could it be that this guy really has any evidence?
