Zhu Di is getting older and older.

I have to say that watching the people who were once his contemporaries continue to wither, he also has a sense of storm.

For an emperor, his age is already considered a long life.

The north has been pacified; The Western Ocean is still continuing, steadily bringing income to the Ming Dynasty; The relocation of the capital has been completed, the ministers followed Zhu Di to the north, Xungui was divided into two branches, Hongwu Xungui generally stayed in the south, and Yongle Xungui followed Zhu Di to the north.

The ceremony had already been completed, and the rebellion was completely quelled after the victory of Liu Rong in Guangningbo in the seventeenth year of Yongle.

Since Zhu Gaoxu became a vassal domain, there have been no major twists and turns in the imperial court.

Yongle Dynasty, also in peace, slowly came to an end.

It's just that Zhu Di didn't expect that in the twilight of his life, he would have to face a storm at the end.

……

Twenty-two years of Yongle.

In the secret room of a mansion in Jingshi, the two were talking quietly.

One of them had a white face and a somewhat shrill voice, and it turned out to be a eunuch, while the other was a sturdy man, apparently a military general.

"King Zhao, do you know about this?" The eunuch's name was Wang Yan, and he was a member of the palace in Ouchi, and his expression was quite nervous at this time.

If King Zhao doesn't approve of it, it will be a waste of work, maybe when Zhu Gaosui ascends the throne, he will have to aim the butcher's knife at them in turn.

"King Zhao...... He didn't speak, just put down the teacup and left. "The general's name is Meng Xian, but he is the confidant of King Zhao and the commander of the guards in Changshan.

He was still a little nervous at this time, but he was also a little excited, after all, this was a big event for dragon slaying!

I didn't expect that just following King Zhao into Beijing would happen like this.

But it turned out that with the passage of time, Zhu Di's health became worse and worse, and in recent years, he hid in the harem, making Zhu Gaochi the chief of the government.

Under the leadership of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Ming Dynasty became more and more prosperous, but unlike Zhu Di, who reused eunuchs and even used eunuchs to establish Dongchang in the nineteenth year of Yongle, Zhu Gaochi was extremely disgusted with these people.

Wang Yan was scolded by Zhu Gaochi for bullying others, so he was dissatisfied. He united with the rest of the scolded eunuchs and divided the relationship between the emperor and the crown prince many times, although he did not succeed, but it also made the prince see Yongle less and less. It happened that Zhu Gaosui entered the emperor, and he immediately thought that this was the effect of discord, and His Majesty was interested in King Zhao, so he had a different heart.

And King Zhao's silence became the last straw in this matter.

"That's it!" Wang Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, this is clearly the default meaning!

The third child of the Zhu family, after all, was still unable to restrain his ambitions.

Let the two elder brothers specialize in the past few decades, and he finally intends to make his last stand for the throne.

O Prince, I want you to pay for your contempt for me!

Wang Yan's eyes flashed with ruthlessness and pleasure.

"It's just...... Father-in-law, this, there are large armies all around this Jingshi, and we are only 10,000 people together, is it really okay? Meng Xian was still a little worried.

"Don't worry." Wang Yan looked confident:

"Haven't you already controlled the Changshan Central Guard, the Changshan Left Guard, the Xingzhou Houtun Guard, and the Tongzhou Right Guard?"

"When the time comes, I will poison the Yongle Emperor in Da Nei, and a few of you will immediately lead the army to the Beijing Division, and there will be Peng Xu, the commander of the Yulin avant-garde in the Beijing Division, and we will fight together, kill the prince, support the King of Zhao, and share the glory!"

Seeing that Meng Xian was still a little hesitant, Wang Yan quietly approached him and showed a smile:

"Don't worry, this is not only our doing, God, but also allowed!"

"Someone in Qin Tianjian has calculated, guess, what did he calculate?"

"What?" Sweat was streaming down Meng Xian's forehead, his eyes widened, and he asked nervously.

"Between the months and months, there is a change of ownership!" Wang Yan's voice was low, but word by word, sonorous and powerful, Meng Xian gasped when he heard it.

"God, providence!" The caution on his face slowly disappeared, replaced by surprise and madness!

Seeing his reaction like this, Wang Yan gradually showed a satisfied look in his eyes, and he knew that his ally was completely determined.

"How's the edict forged?"

"Gao Zheng is almost ready, but his nephew is unreliable, and he wants to report to the court secretly, but fortunately he reacted quickly and intercepted him in time, otherwise it would have almost ruined our big thing!"

"Okay, be cautious, in a few days, we'll be ready to get started!"

……

"Are you saying that someone from Xingzhou and Tongzhou came to report that the garrison suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, some towns in Beizhili also reported that the two garrisons in Changshan had inexplicably left the garrison and headed north?"

Listening to the reports of his subordinates, Yan Keng noticed an unusual taste.

The Beijing division has not been mobilized at all recently, and the Ming Dynasty is in its prime, and King Qin or something is even more nonsense.

So the question is, without getting an order, the four guards troops marched towards the Beijing division at the same time, what is this trying to do?

Yan Keng's eyes narrowed, and his hand was on the saber at his waist.

Do you want to take advantage of this lion's old age and bite off a piece of meat on his body?

However, it may also be His Majesty's secret decree.

After all, His Majesty is old, he is more suspicious and vigilant, and it is not impossible, maybe this time the court and China will be turned upside down, and the heart of heaven is unpredictable.

Yan Keng is still more inclined to the latter, he really can't imagine that when the dynasty is still at its peak, there will be such a rebellion that can be called an egg hitting a stone.

"Prepare the horse, I'm going to meet the saint!" He finally decided to check it out.

"Wait."

Before stepping into the carriage, Yan Keng paused.

Years of military career made him a little vigilant at this time.

Tongzhou and Xingzhou are too close to Jingshi, it can almost be said that they are coming, and if there is really something, it will be a big deal.

"Let the garrisons guarding the gates of the city keep an eye on them and guard them strictly."

"Jun'er, you take my waist card, sleep at the 3,000 camp tonight, and pay close attention to the situation in Jingshi, just in case."

Yan Keng is the Zuo Governor of the Houjun Governor's Mansion and the direct boss of the three major battalions, there is nothing wrong with his words, and as his eldest son, the next successor of the Wuxun family, who is already twenty-seven years old, often wanders in the Beijing camp, staying in the three thousand camps, and no one will gossip.

He did all this just in case.

After all, once there is chaos, the first and most important thing is to control the army.

There shouldn't be any big deal, otherwise my father would have already sent a letter to remind me. Yan Keng thought about it and felt more at ease.

Although Yan Ling retreated into the background, he was always indispensable in all kinds of major events in the Ming Dynasty. He always used his two sons to control the situation and let the Ming Dynasty run in his ideal direction.

Yan Ling didn't write from him this time, so he thought there should be no big deal recently. Yan Keng rightfully thinks so.

He didn't know that it was precisely because of the existence of their Yan family that history had deviated.

In history, this rebellion, before people had time to raise troops, they had already been reported by Gao Zheng's nephew Wang Yu, so that they were wiped out before they could do anything, and this matter was not ranked at all in the magnificent Yongle Dynasty, so Yan Ling didn't care about it at all.

But this time, due to the frequent invasion of Mongolia before, Gao Zheng's vigilance who had been stationed in the north for many years was greatly strengthened, although Mongolia was subdued, but the high vigilance he cultivated did not decline, Wang Yu's wrongness was actually seen by Gao Zheng, and he was immediately caught by them, so that the imperial court did not get the slightest news!

I didn't dare to write like this, just because I was scolded by the prince for a few words, I had to change the emperor...... Or in the early Ming Dynasty...... It's magical.
