Chapter 102                                                             

The Ming Dynasty could not enfeoff the vassal kings and ignored it. The Ming Dynasty had to have a system for the management of the vassal kings. As long as it was a system, there must be rewards and punishments.

Needless to say, the punishment is too much.

Of course, there are various means, such as relegation of titles, elimination of fiefs, etc.

But what if the reward?

The title of the vassal king is already the pinnacle of the ministers. It is truly rewarding.

If a certain generation of vassal kings had too many means, the court could also summon the capital to assist in the government. His foundation was in Nanyang, so it was naturally difficult to confront the civil officials in the capital. However, it could also prevent many civil officials from doing whatever they wanted.

However, Zhu Qizhen still felt that Han Yong's approach was still a bit petty.

Zhu Qizhen simply issued an edict to the world.

The vassal kings from all over the country came to Beijing to meet with each other.

In this way, the matter will be a big deal. Because the vassal kings from all over the country have different roads from Beijing, and with various preparations, the edict at this moment is good to be able to come by in autumn and winter.

However, if such an edict comes to different people, there will be different reactions.

The Ming Dynasty was solemnly dominated by Qin, Jin, Chu, and Shu.

But King Jin doesn't have to worry about it.

Because King Jin is too close to Beijing.

It was impossible for King Jin to take out the palm of Beijing, so King Jin came to the capital early and cried to the emperor, saying that he was in poor health and could not serve the court.

Want to save Nanyang from suffering.

Yes, in the eyes of many people, going to Southeast Asia is a pain.

As for the King of Qin, King of Chu, and King of Shu, although they all have their own thoughts and may have dissatisfaction in their hearts, they dare not show it. After all, they all understand how much power the Ming court has.

However, they dared not have any other thoughts, but they did not dare to make small moves.

Their little move is King Ning.

Speaking of the Ning Wang lineage, it is the most resentful thing in my heart towards the imperial family lineage.

When Emperor Taizong raised an army, facing the aggressive offensive of the Southern Army, he left the prince to defend the city. Now he led his troops out of the frontier and went to Daning, and seized the troops of King Ning in one fell swoop. From then on, he had the capital to confront Nanjing.

At that time, Taizong could say goodbye to King Ning, and the two brothers were divided into the world.

It's just after the world's great stability.

King Ning was also tactful and did not dare to say anything about the world. But he wanted to enthrone a good place. He asked Suzhou.

Taizong did not allow it.

Ask for Qiantang.

Taizong did not allow it.

Finally, he was sealed in Nanchang.

After Emperor Taizong, King Ning also wanted to change a good place, but was sent to Emperor Renzong. He even sent someone to King Channing to do something wrong.

King Ning could only hide in the way of literature and died in the thirteenth year of Zhengtong.

You should know that during the Hongwu period, there was a comment saying that King Yan was good at fighting and King Ning was good at planning. However, King Ning, who was good at planning, finally forced himself to be like this. It was fake that King Ning's lineage did not have a depressed heart, but it was fake.

Now, the Ning King is the legitimate grandson of Ning King Zhu Quan, named Zhu Dianpei.

His father died early and grew up under Zhu Quan since childhood. It can be said that he was trained by Zhu Quan and is about the same age as Zhu Qizhen.

It was the grandfather of Zhu Chenhao, the King of Ning who later rebelled.

Therefore, the Ning Wang family has always had the idea of ​​the imperial family. Even various preparations may not be possible only when they reach Zhu Chenhao.

At this moment, Zhu Dianpei was hesitating in his heart.

He had received many letters from the Taizu and his vassal kings from various channels. Although many words were not stated clearly, he could not understand the implications.

I hope he will teach the court a lesson.

Zhu Dianpei was very excited, but he also knew that it was time for him to choose.

Follow these people's persuasion and raise an army to resist the court.

This is a good opportunity.

First of all, the south of the Ming Dynasty was empty.

The southern soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were either in the southwest or in the South Ocean. Usually, the imperial court had tens of thousands of camps in Nanjing, but now these tens of thousands of troops have gone south.

Zhu Dianpei, the local garrison army in Jiangxi, dared not say that he had complete control, but he could also be paralyzed as soon as possible. Don’t underestimate the connections a vassal king has accumulated in his fiefdom for decades.

It was like when Zhu Chenhao raised his army, he immediately killed the loyal people in Jiangxi City who were loyal to the court.

There is no obstacle to going from Nanchang to Nanjing like this.

Now Nanjing lacks effective ministers to take charge.

If Cao Nai was still there, he would never have had this idea. It was just that there was a vacancies for left-behind ministers in Nanjing.

Zhu Qizhen wanted to leave it to Han Yong.

After all, even if a minister like Han Yong does not serve as the chief minister, he can only place his position, so he must prepare in advance. However, in Zhu Qizhen's view, this position left behind in Nanjing is often without any business, and nothing will happen if it is vacant for a period of time.

This is such a mistake.

The support of the vassal kings in various places was also a bargaining chip in Zhu Dianpei's heart.

It seems that the vassal kings in various places have long lost their power.

However, most of the princes named by Taizu could do in Nanchang, which were granted by Taizu, could do locally. Even when Taizong raised his army, if there were no vassal kings from various places to retreat, Jianwen might not have lost his country so easily.

Now that there are support from the vassal kings in various places, it is also a great benefit.

After all, it is difficult for many vassal kings to make a clear statement. If the imperial court had not reduced the vassal again, it would be difficult for Zhu Dianpei to have such good news.

But in addition to the benefits, it depends on the disadvantages.

Zhu Dianpei knew very well that the current emperor was a very difficult emperor. Judging from the wars he had fought since ascending the throne, he knew that it was not easy to mess with. Even though the south is empty now, he could successfully occupy Nanjing and occupy Jiangnan, but the court had elite troops from the north and went south in large numbers. The subsequent wars were not easy to fight.

Not to mention that if the Ming Dynasty retreated from Nanyang, he would face two attacks.

He was naturally hesitant.

On the one hand, he was very coveted by the opportunity in front of him. On the other hand, he was worried that something big would not be done. He thought repeatedly.

So the envoys who came out of the capital urged King Ning to go to the capital while urging him to go to the capital.

Zhu Dianpei is too clear.

This time, when we went to Beijing, the opinions of the vassal kings in various places were not important at all, no matter what their opinions were. The feudal strategy would eventually be implemented, and the fiefdom in Nanchang was not a good one.

But soon he wouldn't even have the fiefdom of Nanchang.

If all the vassal kings in various places go to Beijing, it is hard to say how much support they can be.

Time is getting tighter.

Zhu Dianpei finally made up his mind.

As soon as he is old, it is impossible to do this if he doesn't do it.

If he didn't have a chance, he might keep this idea in his heart and pass it on to his descendants. He wouldn't think too much. But now, because of the actions of the capital, he has such a big deal or a small opportunity to keep it in front of him.

It really made him unable to give up.

Secondly, after he went to the capital this time, Ning Wangfan would definitely be transferred to Nanyang, which was barren land in Nanyang. It was impossible to accumulate strength. It was impossible to do such a thing again.

Rather than doing this, it’s better to take a gamble.

It's just a success or a defeat.

"I should get the things I have given to my family by myself." Zhu Dianpei made up his mind and immediately made a move.

The first thing he had to do was to spread rumors.

He spread the story of Emperor Xuanzong's palace back then, saying that he is not the son of Emperor Xuanzong.

Legend has it that the Empress Dowager was still a concubine and competed for favor with Empress Hu. In order to gain an advantage, she robbed the son of the palace maid as her son.

This is not actually news.

From ancient times to the present, the people have been extremely interested in the gossip in the palace, and novels about the palace secrets have appeared since the Han Dynasty.

Now that I am no longer surprised.

To be honest, what the Empress Dowager did at the beginning was not very glorious, so although the Empress Dowager watched the Empress Dowager grow up, she would look down on her for the rest of her life.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is so tense, it is all related to the deposed queen.

But even if the Empress Dowager did some tricks, it would not be possible to confuse the royal bloodline. Not to mention that Xuanzong was never a fool who could be deceived by women. Just saying that the Empress Dowager was still there at that time, and all the affairs in the palace were watched by the Empress Dowager. It was the Empress Dowager who dared to do such a thing, and he could escape the Empress Dowager's ignorant eyes.

It's just a rumor.

For King Ning, it is not important to be true or false. What is important is to deny the legitimacy of the emperor. It is even later rumored that the reason why His Majesty summoned all the vassal kings to the capital was that he knew that he was not a son of Zhu and wanted to kill all the royal families in the world to eliminate future troubles.

This rumor is even more harsh.
