Chapter 4 The King of Han is rebellious!

I don't know since when, there are such rumors in Jingshi:

When the King of Han saw that Emperor Xuande was young, he thought he was easy to bully, so he had the idea of rebellion!

The guards of the King of Han practiced day and night in Le'an, and the King of Han also spoke wildly many times, saying that the throne was just a "yellow-mouthed son", and he didn't know how to govern the country at all!

Such news is so vast that the government and the opposition know it!

Even the people of Beijing began to chat a few words after tea and dinner:

"I've heard that, Lord Han of Le'an, has bad intentions!"

"I won't fight again, it's only been 20 years of peace......"

"It's impossible, there are millions of troops in the imperial court, and the king of Han is in a small Le'an, how can he fight against the imperial court......"

"You don't know this, the prince of Han was the first general under Emperor Taizong back then, and the legend is that he can carry the tripod, has the courage of ten thousand people, and can take the head of the general in a million troops! Just like that Zhang Yide, that King Kaiping. If this fights, who will be his opponent? ”

"After Chen Guogong is the king of Jingping, how can he be afraid of him!"

"If King Jingping is alive, King Han is naturally not an opponent, but now he is his son! General Zhuge (Zhuge Zhan) is not defeated at the hands of Deng Taiwei (Deng Ai)! I think this Han King is Taiwei Deng......"

As a few people talked, they began to blush:

"Chen Guogongwen Taowu is stronger!"

"King Han is invincible all over the world with a spear, and he is stronger!"

……

For a while, there were different opinions.

Some Wenchen are discussing, saying that the king of Han has long been disobedient, although he has been in Le'an all these years, he is still eyeing the throne and has strong ambitions, and he should be removed as soon as possible, Renzong is too merciful, let him live to this day.

There are also nobles who say in private that this is a conspiracy of the ministers. Because Emperor Xuande set up the Inner Book Hall, he wanted to support the power of eunuchs and combine with nobles to overwhelm civil officials, so they simply released false news that the Han King was plotting rebellion, which was putting pressure on Emperor Xuande.

Countless rumors have been circulated, and it is impossible to determine where the source of these rumors came from, a market vendor who appeared inexplicably? A gossipy old man who doesn't know where he came from? Or is it a little eunuch who seems to know a lot about Ouchi's news? Nobody knows. And the truth is hidden in rumors.

Anyway, as the rumors intensified, Jingshi, as well as many big cities, from officials to Bai Ding, all knew that the King of Han was going to rebel.

Rebellious ministers and thieves are despised by others, so in people's hearts, the image of the Han prince has gradually become a Cao Cao-style "white-faced traitor".

However, this is only rumor after all.

Until that day.

As soon as Zhu Zhanji announced his ascension to the court, Chen Guogong Yan Keng strode out of the sequence of his courtiers and stood in the middle of the main hall.

Suddenly, a pair of curious eyes fell on him.

As a pivotal figure in the imperial court, his every move naturally attracted much attention.

However, Yan Keng's next sentence made all the courtiers open their mouths wide:

"Your Majesty, the King of Han sent an envoy last night, intending to rebel against the ministers as an internal response, and want to rebel!"

Before everyone could relax, he then took out a letter from his bosom and presented it:

This is a letter from the King of Han to his ministers, with the seal of the King of Han on it, and the ministers think it should not be fake. Even so, the king of Han may rise up at any time to cause rebellion and be a disaster! ”

"Your Majesty, please send troops to fight as soon as possible to quell the rebellion of the Han Domain!"

King Han, it's really the opposite!

The courtiers were shocked, this is a major rebellion after all! But then they took it for granted: the matter of the Han King's rebellion had been rumored in the capital for several months, and some people even thought it was strange-

How are you opposed?

Zhu Zhanji's face showed a slight look of surprise, but he quickly regained his composure, and his face showed an expression that was really like this.

In his mouth, a faint sentence came out:

"Han Wang Guo is anti!"

"In the past, he did evil in Beijing, and he even wanted to seize the position of the first emperor, so I saw that this person was not right, and he was not a good minister. Recently, there have been many secret reports in Dongchang, saying that the king of Han had illegal things in the fiefdom, but I remembered the feelings of my uncle and nephew, so I did not deal with it for the time being, and I also hoped that he would return to his lost path. ”

"I don't want to, it's what happened today! However, King Han is my uncle after all......"

Zhu Zhanji's face showed a look of hesitation and unbearability:

"I ...... I still want to repair a book first, persuade it, after all, the king of Han has not openly rebelled, although he has this heart, but there is no trace of this, if he can calm this disaster without swords, it is the best, blood and family affection, I am also unwilling to give up. ”

Yang Rong immediately stood up and persuaded:

"Your Majesty must not have such a benevolent heart!"

"King Han intends to rebel against Chen Guogong today, which shows that he is already hungry for profit! As soon as His Majesty's letter of persuasion is issued, if the King of Han is still obsessed, it is tantamount to reminding the King of Han that I am afraid that it will cause a catastrophe!

"If he is allowed to rebel, and I don't know how many state capitals will be ravaged, and the people of the world who have finally been at peace overnight will be poisoned again, when such a critical situation exists, Your Majesty must not hesitate, and when it is decided, it will be decided!"

"Please Your Majesty immediately send troops to conquer the Han Domain!"

Yan Keng's voice rang out immediately after him:

The minister also held this view. Please also send troops quickly! ”

"Please also ask Your Majesty to send troops quickly!"

Seeing that a henchman of His Majesty, a prince of the state stood up, and the remaining courtiers exchanged glances, and even though many people came out of the ranks, they played to Zhu Zhanji.

For a while, the ministers advised, as if they were trying to force Zhu Zhanji to crusade against Zhu Gaoxu.

When Zhu Zhanji saw this scene, he could only smile bitterly:

"Let's go, what you said makes sense. I can't use the family affection of one family and one surname above the people. In this case, all divisions of the Beijing Division were prepared for battle. ”

"I want to drive the royal expedition in person, capture the king of Han and return to the dynasty!"

……

Although Le'an is small, Zhu Gaoxu is also at ease as a soil emperor here.

Over the years, he has also been honest.

It's not that there is no unwillingness, but that the reality has been recognized.

Zhu Gaoxu is not only brutal, but also recorded his insidious and cunning in the "History of the Ming Dynasty".

This is a man with a little cleverness.

He sees the big picture.

In the absence of a major mistake by the emperor, it is almost impossible for the vassal king to succeed in rebellion, especially after Yongle moved the capital, the difficulty is even greater.

Emperor Yongle's thoughts, how could Zhu Gaoxu, who was also an excellent general, not see it? Zhu Di was able to succeed back then, also because the north was far away from the ruling center, and now he is on the edge of Shandong and Beijing, and if he really wants to fight, the three major battalions can crush him in less than half a month.

And whether it is his eldest brother or his eldest nephew, they are far stronger than Emperor Jianwen back then, and he has no chance.

Zhu Gaoxu accepted his fate and lived his own life in Le'an.

So when Zhu Zhanji came to conquer him with all his army, he was confused.
