Ming Dynasty Strategy Notes [Transmigration Book]

No one knew about the conversation in Changyang Palace that day, and the number of memorials urging the emperor to establish a new emperor continued unabated, and most of the candidates recommended by the ministers still pointed to Concubine Hui.Until that morning—

Yin Xing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, went out to ask for a new memorial, and submitted a joint memorial with two ministers and seven doctors from each ministry.Emperor Hongwu took the memorial presented by the eunuch in his hand and sneered, "Very well, this is what he was waiting for."

"Empress Xiaoci Gao's body is not cold yet, but you have repeatedly urged me to establish a new empress for personal gain. The courtiers colluded with the harem for treason. Come here, drag Yin Xing and others out and behead them!"

Emperor Hongwu let out a roar, and a team of imperial guards outside the hall rushed in immediately, and captured Yin and the two co-signed servants. After a while, the leader of the imperial guards came back and reported that the three of them had been executed.

One official of the second rank and two officials of the third rank were gone in an instant, and the remaining seven were not in the court because their ranks had not yet reached, and they would not be able to survive if they wanted to go on.

However, ten people are nothing, Hong Wudi killed people so casually, he would kill a hundred or a thousand without blinking his eyes.Using the theory of modern leadership to analyze, people like Emperor Hongwu are typical charismatic leaders. His personal attractiveness, appeal and influence are very strong. His beliefs have deeply affected everyone in this country. The framework he built was enough to lead the Ming Dynasty to prosperity, so no matter how many people he killed, there were always countless people willing to work for him.This is why Zhu Yuanzhang dared to kill all the heroes and set the four major cases in the early Ming Dynasty, but he was still able to create the rule of Hongwu.

Therefore, after Emperor Hongwu killed chickens and monkeys, the officials who were lucky enough to stand in the hall couldn't help but feel a little weak.

However, this matter is not over yet. Since Emperor Hongwu said that "the courtiers colluded with the harem", who was the person who was collude in the harem?Since Concubine Hui was the most recommended by the courtiers, she was the one who was colluded with, and it didn't have to be.

So, shortly after the dynasty was dispersed, Concubine Hui was placed under house arrest in Qianxi Palace, which was the relatively remote Leng Palace in the harem at that time.

In the evening of that day, Zhu Chun and Zhu Gui got the news that Concubine Hui was imprisoned.

"Brother, I'm just here to let you know. Don't stop me. I'm going to the palace to talk to my father!" At that moment, Zhu Chun was calling Xia Ziling to discuss in the hall, and Zhu Gui suddenly rushed away in a loud voice. Come in.

Zhu Chun was so angry that he called him by his first name, "Zhu Gui, what do you think will be of any use if you go? Don't just make trouble all day long, just sit down for me!"

Zhu Gui is still relentless, "My concubine didn't treat you badly. How can you sit still? I listened to you recently and stayed in the mansion without doing anything. What can my concubine do in the harem? The courtier recommended The concubine mother is clearly the one everyone expects, so what does it have to do with the concubine mother, I think the father is so confused that he locked up the concubine mother indiscriminately."

Facing this younger brother whose brains were gnawed by pigs, Zhu Chun was so angry that his eyebrows were twisted together, and he stepped forward and slapped him across the face, "In this case, if you dare to say it a second time in the future, I will kill you." Beat you until you can't get up!"

"Brother? You hit me?" Zhu Gui looked at his always gentle and elegant brother in disbelief. Although he knew that he was a man with explosive force, he was always spoiled by Concubine Hui. He is also a man now. The vassal king, so slapped by his elder brother, he was still stunned all of a sudden.

"You were the one who hit you! Let me tell you, there are many people in the capital, and my place may not be extremely safe. If this word is spread, do you think the consequences will be as simple as a slap in the face?" The considerations behind this incident were beyond his imagination as a pig-headed brother.

When Zhu Chun said this, Zhu Gui finally calmed down a little bit. Thinking about what he said just now, and his father Jin Yiwei's method of monitoring the officials, he couldn't help being a little scared, and sat down.

"I think the mother and concubine must have their own calculations about this matter. Besides, the emperor's love for the mother and concubine will not be a big problem. At this moment, the two of us should wait and see what happens, and don't cause trouble for the mother and concubine." Zhu Chun said again. After a few words of persuasion, Zhu Gui, who was acting violently, was finally persuaded to go back.

After Zhu Gui left, Zhu Chun took out an envelope and handed it to Xia Ziling, "It's inconvenient for my brother to move around at the moment, so you take this letter to Mu Sheng for me, and ask him to hand it to Lan Yu himself."

Xia Ziling looked at Zhu Chun's solemn entrusting eyes, his heart warmed, and he said, "Yes." In such a crisis-ridden moment, with such an important thing, Zhu Chun can entrust himself to him, obviously he has a lot of trust in him.

Xia Ziling didn't dare to delay, he left the Shu Palace, took a detour for a cup of tea, and after making sure he wasn't being followed, he came to the Mu Mansion.After receiving the letter, Mu Sheng was well aware of its importance, so he went to the Marquis of Yongchang that night and handed the letter to Lan Yu himself.

Lan Yu received the letter, but did not open it in front of Mu Sheng, but talked happily with Mu Sheng while drinking tea and chatting about irrelevant trivial matters for a while, and opened the envelope after Mu Sheng left.

"Shut up", there were only two words written on a piece of letter paper.Lan Yu's calm face just now changed suddenly, how did Zhu Chun know that he was the instigator of this incident?

Although Sapphire is only a modest Marquis of Yongchang, his popularity in the court is excellent.There are two reasons for this: first, after Chang Yuchun's death, his subordinates and friends all turned to him, and because he was Xu Da's vanguard back then, even many of Xu Da's old subordinates made good friends with him The second is that Chang Yuchun's daughter is Zhu Biao's concubine. After Chang Yuchun died, Chang regarded her uncle as her father. His relationship with Zhu Biao has always been very good. He is a group of civil servants, most of whom support him.After receiving these two groups of forces, Lan Yu has a lot more followers than the Marquis of the same status.

After the establishment of the new government this time, most of the officials acted spontaneously, but he did also contribute to the flames behind the scenes, especially among the group of people who recommended Concubine Hui, most of them were ordered by him.But he did it in an extremely secretive way, and none of the people he chose was from the Huaixi faction.For example, Yin Xing was an official born in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.Under such circumstances, even the emperor couldn't guess whether there was someone instigating behind it, why would the king of Shu think of it?

Could it be... Concubine Hui told him something?Sapphire immediately laughed at herself, that was absolutely impossible.So, or did the King of Shu discover something himself?When was it discovered?

But the king of Shu said to stop, it is indeed time to stop.Emperor Hongwu's holy will has been decided, since he can kill ten people, he will not hesitate to kill more people just for this matter.Regardless of this, the act of locking Concubine Hui in the cold palace shows that there is no room for maneuver in this matter.

But... Sapphire secretly clenched her fists, and said in her heart: Cui'e, I hope you can find a way to get out of the predicament yourself, otherwise I will never stand by and watch!
