I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 421 Big Pit Sets Small Pit, No One in the Old Four Family Is a Good Person!
"Uncle Seventeen, what do you think His Majesty called us here for? Will he punish us?"

"Yes, Grandpa Seventeen, now that His Majesty has pacified the world, in order to prevent us feudal lords from getting distracted, we will definitely have to rectify it again."

"Hey, I've expected this day for a long time. For this reason, I have been thinking about it every day, restricting my family members from committing crimes, and even daring not to accept the fields. I hope that my hard work for so many years can make His Majesty take it easy."

"As long as one life can be saved, the position of the vassal king is not worth it."

In the warm pavilion of the imperial palace, all the feudal lords of the Ming Dynasty gathered together, discussing the concerns in their hearts worriedly.

"Cough cough..."

King Ning Zhu Quan, who was surrounded by a group of people, coughed twice, waved his hands and said, "Our Majesty is talented, not to mention one or two of you, even if we join forces, it will not be as good as your majesty's chance."

"So, His Majesty is not afraid of us making small moves at all. You guys, put your heart in your stomach. I guess, His Majesty called us here to discuss the matter of sacrificing prisoners and offering sacrifices to our ancestors."

Hearing what King Ning Zhu Quan said, Fan Wangs, big and small, breathed a sigh of relief, returned to their seats, and waited anxiously.

In fact, after persuading everyone, King Ning Zhu Quan was not so relaxed.

What he said just now was completely fooling everyone. Zhu Zhangui called them over, and he had no idea what it was for.

Over the years, he can clearly feel that the power to monitor him has not been lowered, and it is even faintly strengthened.

Ning Wang Zhu Quan understands that the damn fourth child probably arranged this, and he is worried about himself.

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he felt, King Ning Zhu Quan wanted to slap himself a few times for countless times.

Back then, I had a great opportunity, so why didn't I fight for it?

If he had fought for it back then, he might have been the peerless emperor who unified the world and was famous forever.

"His Majesty is here!"

Just when King Ning was secretly remorseful, a message from Hu Yu, the commander of the royal guard, came to mind outside the door.

All the vassal kings waiting in the hall quickly stood up and bowed their hands to the door.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

Zhu Zhangui, who had already changed into a long suit, walked in smiling with his younger brothers.

"You don't need to be too polite!"

Stretching out his hand to lift it, Zhu Zhangui said to Zhu Zhanji behind him: "Second brother, go and help Grandpa Seventeen."

Zhu Zhanji nodded, and stepped forward to support Ning Wang Zhu Quan.

When he came to the main seat, Zhu Zhangui raised his hand slightly, and the door of the palace was slowly closed, and the sound of the soldiers' fast-paced footsteps came to everyone's ears.

In an instant, the faces of the vassal kings changed slightly, and Zhu Zhanji, who was supporting Ning Wang Zhu Quan, clearly felt the opponent's hand tremble.

"There are no outsiders in the house today, so sit down wherever you want!"

As if he didn't see the expressions of the feudal lords, Zhu Zhangui smiled and invited everyone to sit down.

Although the vassal kings were very nervous, they still had respectful smiles on their faces and sat on their buttocks.

"Do you want a territory and become kings on your own?"

"thump!"

Zhu Zhangui's first sentence frightened the vassal kings who were sitting on half their buttocks, and their legs softened and they knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are all loyal to the imperial court and never have such a heart. Please learn from your Majesty!"

"That's right, Your Majesty, we are loyal to the country, and we never dare to have such thoughts. It must be that villain who intends to frame us and destroy our royal unity, and has advanced slander under Your Majesty. Please be aware of it!"

Before Zhu Zhangui opened his second sentence, the vassal kings kowtowed in fright to explain.

It's not that they are timid, but that they are really scared.

Compared with the old man and Zhu Pangpang, the one in front of them made them unable to understand the emperor, which made them afraid.

After all, the relationship between everyone has been so far apart, plus Zhu Zhangui's prestige beyond the past and the present.

If Zhu Zhangui declared to the outside world that he suspected that a certain vassal had the intention of rebelling, the people would never raise any objections or doubts, but would firmly believe that a certain vassal really wanted to rebel.

And the ministers dare not mention this, and they will probably be excitedly planning how to counter the rebellion.

And those generals will be gearing up, planning how to defeat them as quickly as possible.

Looking at the people kneeling and kowtowing, Zhu Zhangui couldn't laugh or cry.

"Okay, get up, no one has slandered me, and I have no doubts about the meaning of the uncles and elders."

The vassal kings who were still kowtowing for mercy froze for a moment, then stood up apprehensively seeing Zhu Zhangui's serious expression.

"I called everyone here today with only one purpose, and that is how to keep this world in the hands of our Zhu family forever and ever."

Although the vassal kings are a little messy on weekdays, they are not fools.

They heard some other meanings from Zhu Zhangui's words.

Yes, the world is so big, it is impossible for the imperial court to control all of it.

Leaving aside such a large territory, it was a bit difficult to control the central power in the small and remote place before the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, His Majesty may want to divide the feudal lords and completely control the whole world in the hands of Lao Zhu's family.

Thinking of this, the apprehensive eyes of the vassal kings instantly turned into excitement, and the arm of Ning Wang Zhu Quan, who had just calmed down, trembled violently again.

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it.

Seeing that Jianwen and Zhu Laosi cut down the feudal clan for two generations, it will return to their hands again today.

Noticing the excited eyes of the vassal kings, Zhu Zhangui's face was calm, but he felt helpless in his heart.

The vassals really thought well.

This world is too big to be controlled by the imperial center alone.

If the imperial court does not want to face rebellion every day in the future, the best way is to divide these lands and hand them over to some people for management, and the imperial court will directly manage these managers.

But other people, Zhu Zhangui, are not at ease, and it is even more impossible to hand it over to those aliens.

So after much deliberation, Zhu Zhangui discussed with his father for two days, and finally decided to entrust the feudal lords, so that the whole world can be completely controlled by the Zhu family.

In this way, no matter what happens in the world, the meat will still rot in the old Zhu's pot.

"Let me tell the truth to my uncles and elders, with the current strength of the imperial court, it cannot control the whole world."

"If it develops in the current state, I can assure you that within three years there will be rebellions, large and small, everywhere."

"And we can't find so many excellent officials to manage a district."

Looking at the vassals who were lost in thought, Zhu Zhangui knocked on the table to attract everyone's attention, and said in a very low voice: "I don't worry about others."

"So I discussed with my father for a few days, and finally made a decision to entrust you with the vassal kings and let you manage those territories. In this way, even if there is trouble later, the meat will still rot in our Zhu family's pot and cannot escape to others mouth."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, with me here, whoever dares to rebel, I will be the first to kill him."

As soon as Zhu Zhangui finished speaking, a burly vassal king was the first to stand up and express his opinion in a hurry.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we are the ones who can rest assured in this world after all."

"That's right, our family worked so hard to make it, and we can't make it easier for others."

There was a sound of agreement and intense discussion, and hearing the voice shouting joy secretly, Ning Wang Zhu Quan dismissed it in disdain.

Zhu Zhangui is not an idiot, how could he delegate power so easily, there must be some restrictions and tricks in it.

Sure enough, Zhu Zhangui's next words confirmed his conjecture.

"Since everyone thinks so, let's make an agreement."

After finishing speaking, he waved to Hu Yu beside him, and Hu Yu put the book made of gold and silver in his arms in front of King Ning Zhu Quan.

"This is……"

Ning Wang Zhu Quan's eyes flashed a look that was so true, but his face was full of doubts.

Zhu Zhangui smiled, and didn't say anything about him, and said directly: "Accept the agreement above, and the imperial court will distribute the titles according to your strength. If you don't agree, then everyone will return to where they came from after participating in the celebration." go."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Zhangui didn't stay in the hall for long, got up and went out.

He needs to give these people time to discuss. After all, some of the above conditions may dissuade some vassal kings.

Watching Zhu Zhangui leave, after the door was closed, the princes surrounded Ning Wang Zhu Quan anxiously, urging him to read the above content quickly.

Ning Wang Zhu Quan also felt like a cat scratching in his heart, and he didn't pretend to be reserved, so he opened it and looked at it.

He was ecstatic to read the first few lines, but when he saw the content in the middle and the back, his eyeballs popped instantly.

"Damn, why did I suddenly change my gender, and my relationship is a new pit! Oh no, it's not one, but a bunch of them. Sure enough, Zhu Lao Si's family has no good people."

No one knows how the princes negotiated.

Anyway, according to reports from the royal guards on duty in the distance, there were constant quarrels and scolding sounds in the hall.

This time, the friendly discussion lasted for half a day and one night. It was not until the next morning that the vassal kings made a formal decision, signed their names on the book made of gold and silver, and stamped their royal seals.

No one except Zhu Zhangui and those princes knew what was written in the booklet and what the princes were required to do.

Anyway, in the future, except for a few brain-dead ones, most of the vassal kings will honestly manage the fiefdoms under their names. It was not until a thorough reform that this era ended.

With the end of the all-out war, the smoke of gunpowder and the shadow of death covering the whole world slowly dissipated.

The new residents who joined Daming, under the management of the officials and vassal kings they sent, began to clean up the dilapidated ruins and rebuild their new homes.

And those diehards who were still full of resistance were betrayed and brutally suppressed by Ming Dynasty time and time again.

The various armies have also entered the scheduled permanent garrison base and started training and patrolling day after day.

And those soldiers who chose to participate in the victory parade boarded various vehicles and assembled in the capital under the advice of their comrades and officers.

June 11.

The military parade troop arrived at the training base, and under the instruction and command of outstanding officers, began military parade training.

And the former rulers of those countries were also escorted to Beijing, preparing to participate in the prisoner offering ceremony on the second day after the military parade.

Of course, there is another purpose in it, which is to let these former lords see the strength of Daming, and let them understand that their losses are not unjust.

With the anticipation of countless people, the tenth day of December officially arrived.

Today, God was very kind and did not lose any temper. The warm sun rose from the east, illuminating the whole world.

"Clang clang clang..."

With the first rays of sunlight shining on the golden walls and green tiles of the Forbidden City, solemn bells sounded from the clock tower of the imperial city.

Having already woken up and had breakfast, the common people of Daming dressed in their best attire, took their wives and daughters, and headed for the military parade outside the city hand in hand.

Due to the large number of people watching and the large number of troops participating in the military parade, it was impossible to spread out in the city.

After discussion, the imperial court decided to build the military parade site at the air force base.

The terrain here is open and the ground is flat, which is the most suitable place for this kind of ceremony.

Time passed slowly, and at the auspicious time, the gate of the Forbidden City opened slowly.

With the sound of court rituals and music, the royal guard of honor and court guards, protecting the emperor's dragon, walked slowly towards the parade ground.

The people who were still on their way on the road stopped when they saw the holy car passing by on the imperial road in the middle, and shouted long live excitedly.

Zhu Zhangui, who was sitting in the car, opened the curtains when he heard the cheers, and waved to the people through the transparent bulletproof mirror.

Zhu Zhangui's response instantly aroused cheers from the crowd.

In an escort team in the distance, Omurad, who was wearing chains on his hands and feet, couldn't help sighing when he saw the dense crowd cheering from a distance, and what he had seen and heard in the past few days, Under the urging of the soldiers, he lowered his head and continued to move forward.

But the other country lords are all ashen-faced, thinking in their hearts what to do to give them a chance to survive.
