"I won't live anymore!"

When Dong Han heard this in a daze, he thought the other party was saying "I won't drink anymore."

"I can't drink anymore, I won't drink anymore..."

Li Cheng ignored Dong Han's drunken words and struggled to get up from the ground and return to his tent.

Seeing this, the others supported each other and got up from the ground, but instead of leaving, they dragged Dong Han back to the tent, and then returned to their respective tents.

The next day, a shrill roar came from the military camp. The roar soon spread into the capital and into the palace.

"Emperor, something big happened. Li Cheng, a thousand households of Xingwu Guard, Qiu Desheng, and hundreds of soldiers were hung in the military camp..."

"What!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he was so shocked that his hands that were brushing his teeth paused, and he looked at Erhu with his mouth full of foam.

"Reporting to the Emperor, it is said that they hang themselves collectively when they learned that the vassal kings were unwilling to accept them, and they were unwilling to cause trouble to the court and unwilling to cause trouble to the Emperor!"

"This is the last words of Li Cheng and others. Please check it out..."

Lao Zhu took the suicide note with his trembling hands and read it word by word.

"Master Emperor!"

"We are your soldiers. You don't know me, and I haven't come close to you before."

"But we have to say, we are not in vain..."

When the letter was written here, a mouth suddenly appeared, with two rows of big white teeth baring on it.

Lao Zhu knew at a glance that this guy could not write, so he drew pictures for himself.

Based on the context, this mouth should mean "eat" or "chewing"?

Translated, we did not chew the food of the court in vain. We did our best to fight the court when we were fighting!

There were many typos next, and Lao Zhu forced himself to translate it with his strong basic skills.

"Now we are disabled and can't fight the court anymore. We don't want to be a burden to others!"

"Even if our soldiers under Mr. Lan are not looked down upon by others!"

After reading this letter full of loopholes, Lao Zhu felt extremely heavy.

This is his subordinates, even if they hang themselves, they are unwilling to rebel...

If we have such a good soldier in the Ming Dynasty, why worry about the uncertainty of the world and the uneasiness of the people?

But for some reason, why is our heart so uneasy?

Lao Zhu soon realized that his uneasiness came from guilt, guilt towards these meritorious soldiers.

He originally wanted to find a place for these people to eat, but he did not expect that because of the opposition of the vassal kings, these soldiers felt that they were disliked and regarded as a burden...

When Lao Zhu thought of this, he sighed heavily.

Although he looked down on Lan Yu ten thousand times, he couldn't help but admire Lan Yu at this moment.

Sure enough, what kind of general leads what kind of soldiers!

Lan Yu is arrogant enough and crazy enough, so his soldiers would rather die than surrender!

It’s just a pity, it’s a pity for these bloody men!

"Erhu, pass on our will to the Ministry of War and cut off all the guards of all the princes and guards!"

"It's not that they don't want to, but this time we not only don't give it, but also help them save some money!"

Lao Zhu spoke firmly, and his words were filled with a cold and cold look.

Erhu also sympathized with the experience of Xingwuwei, but he knew the virtues of the Ming vassal kings very well, and the emperor had to make trouble for this move.

"Your Majesty, this matter must not be done. Please think twice!

"We don't have to think twice!"

"Whoever dares to object, let them go to the Beizhen Fushi prison to accompany Zhu Cheng's rebellious son!"

"well……"

"Get the orders!"

Lao Zhu's decree was passed to the Ministry of War, and the Minister of the Ministry of Recruitment Tang Duo was so depressed.

If he dares to post an order to the princes’ mansion, he will be beaten to death by those unruly princes!

"Master Qin Hu, you have to help me with this matter. I dare not go to the prince's mansion to upload an order!"

Erhu heard Tang Duo's plea and hurriedly said.

"Don't worry too much about the Secretary of Tang. The humble official will send the Jinyiwei to follow you..."

When Tang Duo heard this, his heart was hanging down.

"That's good!"

"Then I will be led by Master Hu!"

"promise!"

If it was a normal oral order, Lao Zhu would send a eunuch to pass the order. However, all the guards of the vassal kings had to be removed, which would have to be registered with the Ministry of War and a general was reselected to take over. Then he specially asked the Erhu to give the

The Ministry of War issued an order to ask the Ministry of War to prepare corresponding matters.

After Tang Duo completed the process of the Ministry of War, he accompanied Erhu to pass the imperial edict to all the princes. The result was as he expected, every vassal king who received the imperial edict showed a cannibalistic gaze.

If it weren't for the protection of the Jinyiwei, he would probably have been beaten to death by these princes on the spot!

"Your Highness, this is Your Majesty's will. Do you want to resist the will and refuse to obey it?"

Zhu Shi looked at Tang Duo coldly, then pointed his eyes at Erhu.

"Thu Ye, did your father say what would happen if he resisted the order?"

Erhu coughed awkwardly when he saw Zhu Su ask this.

"The emperor has a life, and he said that if someone resists the order and refuses to obey it, he will go to the Jinyiwei prison to accompany the King of Qin!"

When Zhu Xu heard this, he got up from the ground on the spot.

"I will be in prison!"

Erhu was speechless when he saw that Zhu Xun would rather be in prison than dismissal.

What kind of things did the emperor give birth to? Why is each more difficult to deal with?

However, Zhu Xu only started. As the process of sending the order progressed, more and more princes were in the Jinyiwei prison.

At first, the King of Zhou played chess with the King of Qin, and then three people played cards, and then four people played horse hang.

After all the imperial edicts were passed, two horse hanging tables were placed in the prison, and there were still two people who were idle watching the fun and talking.

In short, these princes would rather be in prison than to disarmament, relying on Lao Zhu's favor!

Even Zhu Jian, who is most respected by Lao Zhu, maintained a high degree of consistency with all the brothers in this incident and resolutely defended the rights of his three guards.

Lao Zhu had a headache about this, but he had no choice but to use his own group of rebellious sons, so he could only ask for help from all your dear ministers during the morning court.

"Do you guys have any good ideas?"

The civil and military officials of the court have been waiting for jokes for a long time, and no one is willing to come out to give advice.

Besides, they have nothing to do.

There are two ways to settle these disabled veterans, one is carried by the court and the other is thrown to the vassal kings.

The emperor knew the financial situation of the court better than anyone else. The treasury had a cleaner face than His Majesty. What should he use to support these people?

Relatively speaking, the fiefs of the princes are much richer. They can collect taxes privately and allow the barbarians in the grassland or the southwest to pay tribute. It is really not difficult to support a thousand people.

Now is the strategic stalemate stage. Either the old emperor suppresses a group of vassal kings and asks them to withstand the thunder for the court. Or the old emperor loves the princes and bears the thunder himself.

In a word, whoever carries will pay for it!

Seeing that everyone was not talking, Lao Zhu started to call out in anger.

"Chen Zongli, what should you do when you talk about this?"

When Chen Zongli heard this, his heart suddenly stumbled. What does the emperor mean by asking this? Could it be that the court would want to raise those disabled veterans?

Don’t say that the court doesn’t have that much money, even if the court has money, it can’t be done!

There have been more disabled soldiers in recent years, and the imperial court has raised this group of disabled veterans. What about the previous disabled veterans?

As the saying goes, there is no need to worry about the lack of worries but the unevenness. Once the court raises this group, then the veterans before will make trouble, will there be a good life in the Ming Dynasty?

"Your Majesty, the national treasury now has less than 300,000 taels of silver. The salary owed by the imperial court before is not enough. I am really unable to bear the resettlement costs of these 30,000 people..."

After Chen Zongli said this, he looked at the emperor's face nervously. Seeing that His Majesty's old face was pulled down, he immediately felt nervous.

"Your Majesty, although the court cannot afford to support it, the crown prince is very generous..."

"It is said that the crown prince in Suzhou Prefecture recruited tens of thousands of weavers without any effort, and successfully resolved a civil rebellion..."
