Chapter 64: King Ning

At dusk, the summer sun is still very hot, shining on the ground through the window lattice, reflecting speckled light and shadow, and a bamboo curtain hanging from the roof divides the study into light and dark. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

On a wide soft couch in the curtain, Qing Jin is holding a volume of ancient books to read, next to the couch there is a pear blossom wood short table, the incense burner on the several is burning sandalwood, the light smoke is ethereal, faintly lingering in the room, several landscape paintings are hung on the wall, the study is lined with quiet and elegant, quiet very.

When Qingjin came back, the palace was full of soldiers, and it was the officers and soldiers of the nearby guard station who rushed to reinforce him.

At this moment, the corners of Qingjin's mouth moved slightly, as if he was reciting silently, he sometimes frowned, sometimes nodded, and suddenly got up and got off the soft couch, and walked to the red sandalwood bookcase under the east window outside the curtain.

The whole study room is spotless, every furnishing is neatly arranged, even the scattered papers on the bookcase are full of charm, without a sense of scattered.

Qing Jin stretched out his hand to pick up a book, was about to open it, suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, he frowned, and did not care, a moment of footsteps to the door, came a small eunuch, it turned out to be King Xing invited.

Qing Jin knew that he wanted to say something grateful to himself, but he didn't care about it, but he still had to go.

He put down the scroll and instructed the front to lead the way, Shi Shiran followed all the way, through the layers of cloister courtyards, and the further he went, the more solemn and quiet the surroundings became. Bright and secretly are guards covered with brocade robes and soft armor inside, all holding swords, waiting for the battle, which shows the tense atmosphere of Xingwangfu now.

As soon as I arrived at the door, there was a hearty laugh. I saw King Xing get up and greet him, and said to Qingjin: "Disturb the young man Qingxiu, come and come...... Come in!"

Qing Jin smiled and said, "The prince is polite. ”

This living room is huge, the decoration is gorgeous and not tacky, the princess and the prince are also sitting in it, the living room is placed against the wall on the side of a Bogu shelf, the shelves are full of dazzling, all some ancient dings, copper bottles, fine blue and white porcelain. The wide-mouthed five-color glazed jar is all worth a thousand gold, and the old antiquities make the living room full of antiquity.

Qing Jin was also polite and sat down directly.

After a few polite words, King Xing sighed lightly and said, "Alas...... If it weren't for the two rescues of Shaoxia, the consequences would be unimaginable, how could I sit here safely...... The young man is really kind to my father and son......"

Qing Jin chuckled and said, "It's just a gesture." The prince doesn't have to be so polite. He took a sip of tea and asked, "Can the prince find out who is behind it?" ”

King Xing smiled bitterly: "I'm not afraid of young jokes." Who's responsible, though the leader of the assassins didn't say it, I can vaguely guess it, alas...... Some people really don't care about anything for the sake of power!"

Qing Jin looked at King Xing's face with a worried face, and it seemed that he was really under a lot of pressure in his heart. He asked, "Oh, who did that?"

King Xing shook his head and sighed: "If what I expected is not bad, it should be King Ning!"

Qing Jin said to himself: "King Ning?" He immediately suddenly realized, and then it seemed that there was a King Ning who rebelled.

King Xing continued: "Most likely it's him, he colluded with Liu Jin in his early years. Acting as a traitor and secretly developing power......"

Qing Jin interjected: "As far as I know, hasn't this Liu Jin already been executed?" Four years ago, Qing Jin had just traveled to Mount Tai, and he heard that the eunuch Liu Jin was ordered to be executed by the emperor, and he didn't want to involve Liu Jin again. ”

King Xing sighed: "Yes, Liu Jin, a thief, controls the dynasty, brings disaster to the country and the people, and makes the world complain...... Four years ago, the king of Anhua launched a rebellion, which was soon pacified by the imperial army, and the eunuch Liu Yong was upright, taking advantage of the opportunity to sacrifice prisoners, in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, to expose Liu Jin's crimes, and he was dead to admonish each other, and the hundred officials supported him, and the saint was immediately furious, and ordered an investigation, and finally called Liu Jin to be ambushed, and was sentenced to Ling Chi ......"

He said this and sighed: "King Ning made a big friendship with Liu Jin when he was in power, and took the opportunity to support and cultivate his own forces, forcibly occupying tens of thousands of official and civilian land, and if the civil and military officials in the fiefdom dared to disobey his orders, they would be directly killed and imprisoned, and even the guards of the vassal king that had long been cut down were all restored. ”

"When this King Ning waited for Liu Jin to ambush him, he hurriedly drew a line with it, the saint was benevolent, and read that it was the bloodline of Taizu, so that he escaped, but he already had some climate at that time, whether it was financial resources or power, it was rare among the major feudal kings, and over the years, it was even more recruiting manpower and cultivating power, and I heard that there were not a few outlaws who had been raised, and the entire fiefdom Nanchang Mansion was run like an iron bucket, and the ambition was really not small......"

Although this does not explain anything, but he jumped up and down a few days ago, wanting to pass on his eldest son to the saint as an adopted son, so he did not hesitate to throw a lot of money to blow the wind. However, although he did not say these actions on the surface, but in private no one knows, the saint must also know in his heart, how can he get his wish, but this person does not know how to wake up, and it has intensified, thinking that the saint does not allow it, but the child is blocking his way, so he sent people to assassinate him in a frenzy, and treat everyone in the world as fools?”

Qing Jin heard this and said secretly in his heart, of course, it was not a good end, this King Ning was also unlucky, when he rebelled, he was running into Wang Yangming, a generation of mental scholars who was the governor at the time, was suppressing bandits nearby...... All schools of thought are connected, and the achievements are the best of the Ming generation.

With Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, Mencius, and Zhu Xi, the master of Confucianism, Confucius, Meng, Zhu, and Wang are synthesized into Confucius, Meng, Zhu, and Wang, and their amazing talents are by no means inferior to Zhuge Kongming.

As a result, King Ning pulled up the banner, known as 100,000 troops, and passed them to various places, and the initial progress was also smooth, going down to Jiangdong, slightly Jiujiang, breaking Nankang, going out of Jiangxi, attacking Anqing, and ambitiously wanting to take down Nanjing and claim the emperor.

At that time, the world was shocked, Emperor Zhengde heard about it, he wanted to drive the expedition, and it was indeed the royal drive to conquer, but just out of the capital not far away, there was good news, it turned out to be leading the people, the soldiers, and some Tuntian soldiers composed of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers in the vicinity of the bandits Wang Yang Ming heard the change, when even if he led the troops to quell the rebellion, the result of the rebellion was only forty-three days, King Ning was defeated and captured, and the end was a dead end.
