Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 148 I beg Your Majesty, quickly cut down the feudal clan... Stop smoking, it hurts!

The kings tasted it.

The emperor wanted to order the palace guards to enter Beijing to escort him.

But once the guard leaves the fief, will he come back?
Will the emperor allow him to recruit new guards?

Absolutely not!

The Tatars knocked on the side, the emperor didn't want to repel the foreign enemies, but wanted to cut down the feudal clan!Such an emperor is really not a king of subjugation?

and many more!

The emperor is not afraid of the capital being besieged, but their feudal lords are afraid of shit!

The big deal is to be a captive of the Tatars with the emperor. Anyway, with the king of Mobei leading the way, we should go to Mobei for vacation. Playing, playing and singing are also good, and the king of Mobei's piano skills may not be as good as us!

The kings were silent.

Zhu Qiyu's face became more and more gloomy: "Zhu Qing, continue to drink."

Stop, Your Majesty!
Stop drinking, the prince will be whipped if you drink any more!
Ning Wang, Lu Wang, Shen Wang and others who were drawn trembled.

The prince who has not been pumped has tears flowing out, don't drink it, we are afraid of pain!

"Bring the wine!"

Zhu Qiyu stretched out his hand, and Feng Xiao sent the wine glass filled with water to the emperor's hand.

"Kings, raise your cups."

"This glass of wine, I respect the kings in advance!"

"Once Daning is broken and the elite Tatar soldiers besiege the capital, the kings will go up first!"

"drink!"

Zhu Qiyu was angry.

Let you take the initiative to hand it in, so that I can change you to a better fief, but if you don't know your way, then just stay in Beijing!
"According to seniority, the older ones go first, the younger ones wait!"

"If one dies, one will go up!"

"Until Old Zhu's family becomes extinct!"

"Let all the subjects in the world take a look at the lofty aspirations of the old Zhu's family!"

"Done!"

Zhu Qiyu drank it all in one gulp.

He drank well, and the hands of the kings holding the wine glass were shaking, constantly shaking.

A glass of wine, spill half of it.

The kings are different from the civil servants in the court. The civil servants were selected from the imperial examinations, and each of them has [-] minds.

The kings are inherited, although they have experienced the slaughter of the throne, after all, it is very naive to see that less is killed and less is killed.

Really scared by the emperor.

"Shake what?"

"I am the emperor, I am not afraid of death, what are you afraid of?"

"Zhen will send people to bring all the men from the palaces, and in times of crisis, all of them will step up!"

Zhu Qiyu got excited: "Our old Zhu's family has a lot of people and integrity!"

"His Majesty!"

The king of Lu is afraid, his sons are all here, and Yu Qian is stationed in Shandong. The emperor will send his grandsons to the capital by order.

If the imperial decree is spread out, he will be the first to be unlucky.

"I am willing to transfer the guards of the palace to the capital to defend the capital!"

The king of Lu admitted his cowardice, which immediately attracted the resentful eyes of all the kings.

The guard took it out, it was a meat bun to beat a dog, can you take it back?

You idiot, guards are our bottom line and cannot be shaken!

"Your Majesty, I am also willing to transfer the guards of the palace to the king of Qin!" King Jin also defected.

Fan Guangguang's army was stationed in Hetao. In case of returning to the east, the families of the northwestern kings could be forced to move to the capital.

They have no room to fight back!

The kings are very contemptuous of King Jin, you are sick in your head!

King Ning also burst into tears. The emperor sent the Wudang Army to Shanxi and stationed them on Longhu Mountain, and his family members could not keep them!

"Wei Chen is also willing to contribute guards!" King Ning kowtowed.

This time the kings were a little dumbfounded.

It was agreed to advance and retreat together, why did the three of you take the lead in flattering?
"Wei Chen is also willing!"

All the kings prostrated themselves on the ground, scrambling to be the first to roar.

He desperately stuffed the guard into the emperor's pocket.

King Lu, King Jin, and King Ning glanced at them, don't kneel if you have the ability, and laugh at us for being spineless?ridiculous!

but.

Zhu Qiyu sullenly said: "The meaning of the kings seems to be that I forcibly transferred your guards. Could it be that I am a mean and ungrateful tyrant?"

"what?"

It will not be possible to give the kings a straight line.

Don't you just want the palace guards?
We all promised, what more do you want?

"Your Majesty is politically lenient, generous and benevolent, how can he be a tyrant?" King Lu began to coax the emperor.

"King Lu is glib."

"Did I say that I would transfer the king's guards?"

"Isn't it just the Tatars? A few years ago, the Tatars were attached to Oirats for a living. They wanted to attach themselves to Ming Dynasty countless times. I even defeated Oirats. Are you still afraid of Tatars?"

"All the kings have the filial piety of sending the guards into the capital to serve the king, and I accept it."

"But the guards are the ancestral system of Taizu. Although I am the emperor, I can't change the ancestral system at will."

"Today is a family feast, don't mention those unhappy things."

"drink wine!"

Zhu Qiyu poured another cup, sat on the steps, and drank it down in one gulp.

But the kings can't do it, you ordered our whole family to come to the capital, let us go to a bloody battle with the Tatars, and when the city gate is breached, you must slip away to Nanjing to become emperor.

After going to Nanjing, you are still the emperor, what about us?

all dead!
You are not cutting down the feudal clan, you are sending us to die!

"Why don't the kings drink?" Zhu Qiyu put down his glass and asked.

"Chen, minister..."

The kings drank it in tears.

"Pour wine!"

Zhu Qiyu stood up from the steps: "My lords, these years, the messy things in your family have bothered me a lot!"

"This glass of wine, you should respect me!"

"Every family of yours has troubles every year, and there are always moths, fighting for the throne, brothers fighting against each other, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting, so many broken things."

"How many times have I wiped your ass?"

"Respect me!"

How many drinks have you had?

It seems like three more cups?

"Your Majesty's kindness is my humble servant!" The kings were trembling, and tremblingly sent the wine in their cups into their stomachs.

It stands to reason that after drinking so much, he should be drunk.

But as soon as he was drunk, the emperor swung his big whip, and he became sober in an instant, and the alcohol was gone.

On the contrary, they are envious of the county kings sitting outside, at least you will not be whipped.

Clap!

The wine glass fell to the ground.

"All the princes outside, come in and kneel in the middle!"

"Talk about it yourself, ask yourself, how much trouble have you caused me these years?"

"Is there a peace of mind?"

"King Tang!"

Zhu Qiyu pointed to Tang King Zhu Qiongda: "I ask you, where did King Xiang's family assets go?"

Tang Wang Zhu Qiongda is the third generation Tang king, the second son of the No. 20 third son of Emperor Taizu, Zhu Qiong. The second generation Tang Jing Wang Zhu Qiongdan was childless, so the throne was inherited by his younger brother Zhu Qiongda.

"Wei, Weichen..." Tang Wang murmured for a long time without saying anything.

"I see that he has entered your Tang Palace!"

"I heard that your newly-accepted concubine, Jiao Shi, is domineering in your house, and even the prince of the Tang Dynasty has to stay away."

"One day, Mrs. Xuan Le of the Jiao family entered the palace. Your son Zhu Zhizhi questioned her a few times. In a fit of rage, Mrs. Jiao stormed the palace gate with a hammer, and Zhu Zhizhi was so frightened that she shut the door behind her."

"Is there such a thing?"

"It's not uncommon for a stepmother to suppress a son-in-law in a big family."

"But as the king of Tang, you dare not even let go. Are you still a descendant of the Zhu family?"

"Afraid of a woman?"

The more Zhu Qiyu spoke, the angrier he became: "Come on!"

Zheng Youyi knelt down and handed the whip to Zhu Qiyu.

Snapped!
Tang Wang hurriedly knelt down on the ground, resisting the whip with his back.

Zhu Qiyu wanted to slap his face, but ended up slapping his back.

"You have a quick reaction. It seems that Mrs. Jiao has practiced with you a lot!"

"There is a shrew in the family, why don't you train her?"

"Shame on me, shame on the Zhu family!"

Zhu Qiyu shouted angrily: "Raise your head!"

"You stupid bird with your head down, what are you doing with this face?"

Tang Wang's face was full of sadness.

This is my family's private matter. My eldest son is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Why do you have to be sidetracked?Let them fight, and I will be the king of Tang in peace.

Snapped!
A whip hit Tang Wang's face.

Tang Wang felt as if his head was about to open.

It was so painful.

The key point is that he didn't dare to scream, as long as he screamed, the second whip would fall, and all the kings would understand.

"The Kings of the Three Cities, King Dangyin, and King Xinye of the Tang Dynasty, all get out!"

Three city king Zhu Zhilong, Dangyin Wang Zhiguan and Xinye king Zhu Zhicheng climbed out.

They are the sons and nephews of Tang Wang Zhu Qiongda.

The eldest son sits in the palace and did not come to the capital.

"Your father is so cowardly, why didn't you persuade him?" Zhu Qiyu asked coldly.

"Report to Your Majesty..." The King of the Three Cities had just exited when a whip was received around his head.

He was whipped and fell over on his back.

A bloodstain was printed on his face, dripping with blood.

"waste!"

"It's all trash!"

"I'm afraid of a woman, but I'm not afraid of the property in Prince Xiang's mansion, let alone the national laws and family rules!"

"What are you going to do? Don't you dare to hit you when you bully me? Isn't it tough enough to bully me?"

"A waste that even a woman doesn't understand how to control, what kind of king! Why don't you just use a hoe to farm the land, let you go to the battlefield, I think you are in the way!"

"But when you're greedy for property, you're not ambiguous at all."

"I sent factory guards to ransack the house, so lonely!"

"Tang Wang, do you really need that thing?"

Zhu Qiyu looked at Tang Wang with sympathy.

Among all the fanatics, Tang Fan is relatively honest, because the first generation of Tang King was granted by Emperor Taizong, and he became a fan in the sixth year of Yongle.

The first king of Tang was not as fierce as his brothers, so the descendants were naturally honest.

Unlike Ning Fan, relying on Emperor Taizong's words to share the world, generations have had the idea of ​​​​disrespect, and they all want to get their hands on the throne.

"Your Majesty, please learn from me, my humble minister, my humble minister..."

King Tang carefully looked at King Jing.

Huguang Zhufan, headed by King Jing.

Regardless of King Jing's younger generation, but he is closest to the emperor by blood, so he naturally became the leading brother.

Snapped!
Seeing Tang Wang cowering and shrinking, Zhu Qiyu directly whipped him on the body!

"Ah!" King Tang couldn't bear it anymore, and screamed out.

Zhu Qiyu continued to wave his whip.

Let you dishonestly hand over the guards!
This time, if you want to pay, I don't want it!

"It's the King of Jing! It's the King of Jing!" King Tang's body was contorted by the pump.

King Jing was dumbfounded for a moment.

He had just been whipped, the emperor's whip, that was an indiscriminate attack, regardless of blood relationship, he could hit anyone he wanted.

Snapped!
At the moment when he was dazed, the whip had arrived.

Zhu Qiyu whipped him hard: "Zhu Qihao, what are you going to do? Are you taking the lead against me?"

"Yes, yes..." Zhu Qihao was stunned, the pain was too great.

He wanted to say that the king of Tang framed him, but in a hurry, he stuttered and said "yes", but did not say the following words.

But Zhu Qiyu's eyes were blood red: "You say so?"

"You are my cousin, but you take the lead in opposing me?"

"Get out of the way!"

"I will clean the door today!"

"Discipline you well for your father!"

Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and whipped the whip, and lashed at King Jing's body.

King Jing of the first generation was the sixth son of Emperor Renzong and the younger brother of Emperor Xuanzong.

After the death of King Xiang, King Jing became the local emperor of Huguang.

The seedlings in Huguang are in chaos every year, and the refugees cannot be resettled. Huguang has degenerated from a large granary to a desolate land.

"Your father is so honest! Respectful to Emperor Xuanzong!"

"You are my own cousin, and you actually take the lead in opposing me!"

"If your father comes back alive, he should beat you to death!"

"I think your father gave birth to you, it was a mistake!"

"It was a big mistake for me to let you become a nobleman!"

"This mistake, I will end it!"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
The whip fell.

King Jing rolled all over the ground, and failed several times.

"Hold him down, I'll beat him to death, you bastard!" Zhu Qiyu exploded his lungs.

"My minister's mouth is full..." King Jing was in excruciating pain, if he had been whipped more than a dozen times, he would have been whipped to death.

Don't doubt that the emperor dared not kill the kings.

King Xiang, that is the emperor's direct uncle. He is a sibling of Emperor Xuanzong, and the emperor was directly roasted to death.

Zhu Qihao is a fart!

"Hold him down!"

The kings retreated, for fear of watching the excitement and splashing blood all over their bodies.

Originally held by the eunuch, Zhu Qijian, king of Duchang, Zhu Jianpu, king of Duliang, and Zhu Jianchen, king of Fanshan, took the initiative to hold down King Jing.

Of these three, Duchang King Zhu Qijian is the direct younger brother of King Jing.

King Duliang and King Fanshan are the sons of King Jing.

They are all blood relatives.

At the critical moment, King Jing was sold out.

"Well, you are filial!"

Zhu Qiyu swung his whip vigorously, beating King Jing desperately.

After more than a dozen lashes, King Jing was on the verge of death, with more breath and less breath.

"King Duchang, tell me, is your family really short of that little money?" Zhu Qiyu let King Jing go, and immediately pointed the finger at King Duchang.

King Duchang was dumbfounded.

We just helped you, Your Majesty, you can't go mad and accidentally injure friendly troops, right?

"No, no shortage!" King Duchang regretted.

He thought that the emperor abolished King Jing in his rage, so as King Jing's direct younger brother, he was fully qualified to inherit King Jing's throne.

But the emperor went crazy.

"Then why are you greedy?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"Wei, Weichen don't know either!" King Duchang was very innocent.

Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and whipped King Duchang on the face.

This time, King Duchang was in so much pain that he finally understood what it was like when the whip hit him!
It hurts!

"You are his own younger brother, why didn't you persuade him when he did something wrong?" Zhu Qiyu was angry.

"I want to persuade you, but I can't persuade you!"

King Duchang shouted his injustice, pointed at King Duliang and King Fanshan, and said, "They are the sons of King Jing, and they won't persuade them!"

Dead Daoist friends do not die poor Daoists!
King Duliang and King Fanshan, the former is the second son of King Jing, and the latter is the third son of a concubine.

They were all dumbfounded at the moment.

Uncle, you really perfectly interpret brother and brother Gong!

No wonder the emperor likes to kill his uncles. It turns out that uncles like to kill their nephews.

but.

The emperor looked at them with red eyes.

Pfft!
The two kings knelt on the ground.

King Duliang reacted the fastest: "I persuaded my elder brother, but my elder brother and his father are a nest of snakes and rats, so I can't persuade you!"

As long as Jing Wang and Jing Wang's son are eliminated, Jing Wang's throne will fall on his head.

King Duliang also went crazy.

King Fanshan opened his mouth, wanting to get rid of his second brother, but found it too difficult, and his uncle Duchang Wang was watching him, so he just shut up.

Snapped!
But Zhu Qiyu lashed Fan Shanwang with a whip!

King Fanshan was stunned, why me?
I didn't speak, and I was also whipped?

King Duliang knew that his words were aimed at the emperor's mind.

He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my father and elder brother not only coveted the property of King Moxiang's family, but also swallowed up the two concubines of King Guxiang..."

boom!
The Qianqing Palace exploded in an instant.

King Xiang's concubine is King Jing's aunt!

Moreover, King Xiang was guilty, and the whole family escorted the capital. How did you steal the two women out?
really.

Zhu Qiyu's pupils became more and more gloomy: "Go on!"

"The king of Chu is also the one who is in trouble with my father!" The king of Duliang went crazy.

King Chu wants to die now.

Looking at King Jing's miserable state, he knew that he couldn't survive!
"The humble minister is guilty! The humble minister is guilty!" the King of Chu wailed loudly.

Zhu Qiyu looked at him slowly: "How does King Xiang's concubine taste? Compared with your concubine, which one is better?"

The king of Chu kowtowed: "The humble minister is guilty, the humble minister is guilty!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Qiyu laughed sadly: "How can the old Zhu family clean up such a scandal that destroys human relations?"

"King Chu Zhao's spirit in heaven, how do you view his descendants?"

"I don't want to hit you anymore!"

"I don't even want to let Qi Julang write it in the history books, I can't say it!"

"You are shameless, why should I have shame?"

"There are so many women in the world, why are you staring at your relative's concubine?"

"Is it fun?"

"In vain you have quite a filial reputation among the people, I don't dare to investigate, I am afraid that your filial reputation is not fake, made it out of it?"

"Don't even dare to check your Chu Palace!"

"I don't know how much more bullshit is going on?"

"If it is found out, there will be no place to put my face!"

"The good Ming Dynasty, the good royal family, have been ruined by you! They are ruined! They are ruined!"

Zhu Qiyu was heartbroken: "Preach the decree, deprive the title of the king of Chu, Zhu Jizhen picks up the word 'Ji', gets rid of the jade plate, and demotes to Fengyang to guard the ancestral grave." (Zhu Jizhen has no children)
"The kings of the Chu clan, if they have faults and don't teach them, if they commit crimes knowingly, they will be punished by Zonglu for ten years, and the whole family will contemplate their faults behind closed doors, and they will not be allowed to leave the palace without edicts. Those who disobey the edicts will be executed!"

"Preached the decree that the king of Jing was unfilial, corrupted human relations, deprived of the title of King Jing, removed Zhu Qihao's "Qi" character, removed the jade plate, demoted to Fengyang to guard the ancestral grave, his son removed the word "see" and removed the jade plate, and could not be sealed !"

"The king of Duliang reported meritorious service, and the title of king of Jinjing."

In the Qianqing Palace, there was howling.

The clan has been cut!
Blatantly cutting down the feudal clan!

No one dares to say no!

After more than 50 years of unremitting efforts to cut down the vassal, the kings have finally been bred into pigs. Once the guards of the palace are removed, the kings are playthings in the hands of the emperor, and they can handle them as they want.

Some are happy and some are sad.

Chu Fan wailed loudly, more than [-] kings of Chu Fan were like eggplants beaten by Shuang.

On the contrary, King Duliang was beaming, and he definitely got a big deal.

His younger brother, King Fanshan, was crying so badly. He was whipped and stripped of his throne. Who should I ask for reason?

King Duchang was also crying. Originally, King Jing should be inherited by him, but King Duliang took advantage of him.

"Weichen report!"

Zhu Mengju, the king of Jiangxia, climbed out: "My minister reported that there is also King Min who participated in dividing up the wealth of King Xiang's family!"

Let's die together!
Huguang Zhufan, let's thunder together!

Dong'an Wang Zhu Jiyu climbed out and wanted to report.

Can't let Chu Fan bite.

King Liao knelt on the ground with a thud: "This minister surrendered himself, and this minister participated! This minister is willing to admit punishment!"

"It seems that the kings of Huguang have not escaped!"

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and silenced everyone: "Min Fan and Liao Fan, get out, let me see how poor you all are?"

"Even King Xiang's family property is on his mind!"

"Are you also thinking about my inner money?"

"Do you miss my throne more?"

Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu whipped the whip directly on King Liao and King Min.

"I don't dare, I don't dare!" King Liao and King Min kept kowtowing, and they didn't dare to move even after being whipped.

Many county kings were even more frightened.

How many thrones has been deprived by the emperor's decree?

This is more ruthless, bigger, and more powerful than when Emperor Xuanzong killed nine vassal kings in one go.

However, the kings have no room for resistance.

This is no longer the early years of Xuande, but the eighth year of Jingtai, more than [-] years ago.

"My minister is willing to contribute all the wealth of the palace to His Majesty!" King Min went crazy.

The king of Liao rolled up: "I ask your Majesty to abolish the guards of the royal palace, and order the guards to enter King Jingqin. The minister is in the fief, there is no danger, and there will be no need for guards in the future!"

boom!
After clearing the palace, it exploded directly.

The King of Liao has no bottom line, so is he going to put his own neck under the emperor's knife?
In the future, how can the kings still have half a share of autonomy?

Will they all become playthings in the hands of the emperor in the future?
However, who dares to speak for Liao Wang and Min Wang?
Everyone looked at King Zheng.

King Zheng was also afraid. Although the emperor did not slap him, he concluded that if he dared to speak, the emperor would slap him.

He is a concubine, and Emperor Xuanzong is a concubine.

Their sibling relationship is not good.

Emperor Xuanzong treated him as if he had a cat or a dog, and only teased him a few times when he was happy.

Emperor Xuanzong gave him a place to hide only because he was unable to participate in the seizure of the heir apparent. It was pity for him. Don't take yourself seriously.

Forgot what Our Lady said about him?
When Queen Mother Sun was in the East Palace, even Emperor Taizong liked her.The lives of both of their wives are not as good as a hair of Queen Mother Sun.

The kings thought he was the emperor's uncle.

But I don't know that the master is also sitting on top of the uncle.

A word from Empress Dowager Sun can bring him back to the days when he was dominated. Their lives are not as good as the dog raised by Empress Dowager Zhang.

So, he had to play dead.

Snapped!
A crisp sound of the whip pulled him out of the terrifying memory.

King Zheng opened his mouth wide. Unexpectedly, the emperor whipped King Liao with a whip.

King Liao screamed incessantly.

Doesn't the emperor want guards?
wrong!

He wants more!
Not only the guards, but also plotting the wealth of the palace?
It shouldn't be, the emperor is rich all over the world, and the money in his internal coffers is piled up like a mountain, how could he fall in love with their mosquito legs?

What is the picture?

The king of Liao is also confused. You want the guards of the palace, and I will give them to you. Why are you still slapping me?

"How many people do you think I want you to be?"

"Believe it or not, you take them to attack Fucheng."

"You can't take down a single city!"

Zhu Qiyu sneered: "The people in your palace have been raised and disabled, and they can't fight at all!"

"Use them to fight against the elite Tatar soldiers?"

"I'm afraid that they will run away and disrupt my plan!"

"Let Daming be a joke!"

This is the truth.

The guards of the palace were hereditary, and they were abolished and adopted by the central government, so they were already in disrepair.

"Prince Xiang's wealth will naturally be returned."

"I don't want your own property."

"But you have to tell the truth. How did the wealth get into your hands?"

"In the factory guard, who did you bribe?"

"After the banquet tonight, you all go to Jinyiwei and explain the matter to Jin Zhong honestly."

"I will send Jin Yiwei to investigate, and all those who have verified the truth will kill the nine clans!"

"As for you?"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes turned cold: "Declaration, King Min and King Liao have a good attitude of admitting their mistakes, and they are lenient."

"However, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be forgiven. I am demoted to the county king, and the county king is demoted to the general of the town, and the general of the town is demoted to the general of Fengguo. I will be degraded in turn, and I will be fined for 20 years."

"Jiangxia Wang reported meritorious deeds, and made an exception. He was allowed to go out and carry out normal activities."

King Min and King Liao were dumbfounded.

Downgraded to become a county king?
Then their son is General Zhen Guo?

Min Fan and Liao Fan wailed loudly.

King Jiangxia kowtowed to thank him.

"King Liao and King Min, are you still satisfied with this result?" Zhu Qiyu looked at them.

They thought they were clever enough.

In the end, they didn't know that the emperor and the vassal king were always in conflict.

Cutting the feudal clan is only the first step.

"Satisfied." King Liao and King Min kowtowed to the bottom.

"Since you are satisfied, why are you crying?"

Zhu Qiyu asked: "Come on, raise your head and say it again with a smile."

Even downgraded to a county king, can you still laugh?
However, thinking about King Jing and King Chu, they are considered lucky.

Then smile, shall we?

"You two's smile is uglier than crying."

Zhu Qiyu sneered twice: "Get rid of the generals of Zhen Guo, all the people here are kings, there are no generals!"

The emperor turned his face too quickly!
Did you just say that they are all blood brothers?

Let’s say it now, if it’s not the king’s, it’s not a relative?
So ruthless!
However, looking at the dying King Jing, he was the emperor's own cousin, who had been smoked like that, and he was not announced to be diagnosed and treated by the imperial physician, making it clear that he was to die.

It is extremely cruel to let the kings of the world watch him die.

He is so ruthless to close blood relatives, let alone those who are partial?
The eunuch entered the palace and moved the cases of King Min and King Liao out of the palace.

The two kings looked at each other and burst into tears.

Kowtow and leave the hall.

"It's a lot easier this time, isn't it?" Zhu Qiyu asked with a smile.

The kings have seen it through.

As long as the emperor's mind is not satisfied, the emperor will cut down the vassal, cut down his authority, and make him lose everything.

The emperor is like a child snatching a toy.

"Your Majesty, I request that King Zheng's guards be abolished!" King Zheng was the first to kneel on the ground.

He has no time to lament life.

Keeping the throne is the most important thing.

"Why did Uncle Zheng want to abolish the guards? Can't afford it?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the burden of guards is too heavy, and I really can't afford to support them." King Zheng borrowed the slope to get off the donkey.

"But this is the ancestral system, and I cannot change it."

Are you afraid now?

Want to ask for the abolition of the guards and become a lazy vassal?
Dream, what did you think just now?
At the beginning, I still had a heart of compassion, and wanted to let the vassal king go, but now, I just stewed it with a spoonful, to prevent future troubles.

"I killed Uncle Xiang, and I have always felt guilty in my heart, but I have no chance to repay it." Zhu Qiyu sighed.

But all the kings stand on their heads.

Look at King Jing who is lying on the ground, dying.

Seeing that he was about to die, but he didn't announce the doctor's diagnosis and treatment, he kept humming in his mouth. The eunuch was worried that he would disturb the emperor, so he stuffed his mouth with a cloth ball.

The cloth was soaked in blood, but the emperor turned a blind eye.

No one dared to control him.

It is so sad that the majestic Prince Ming died in front of the kings.

But the emperor was remembering King Xiang who he killed with his own hands. What does this mean?
If you really miss King Xiang, you can rule King Jing, save yourself saying sorry to King Jing again someday?

All are not fools.

They are all pondering the deep meaning of the emperor's words.

The emperor roasted King Xiang to death, and flogged a King Jing to death.

Just now, the king of Chu was cut, the king of Liao and the king of Min were demoted, and the kings of Huguang were taken over by one pot.

Unpredictable.

who is the next?
"Your Majesty, please abolish the guards!" King Qin was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

My heart can't take it anymore, stop playing!

I served it!
King Lu, King Qing, and King Zhou all prostrated themselves on the ground, begging the emperor to abolish the guards.

In the past, the emperor racked his brains to cut down the vassals, and the vassal kings were always dissatisfied, which made it difficult for the emperor to do so.

Now it is the vassal king who is begging to cut down the vassal, but the emperor disagrees, so they are impatient.

"Are you forcing me to change the ancestral system?"

Zhu Qiyu's voice was sinister: "Let me bear the infamy of being unfriendly?"

"It's good for you, as soon as the upper lip touches the lower lip, it will help you relieve the pressure on the palace."

"But let me bear the infamy?"

"Are you so filial to your father?"

"Kneel down to me!"

Zhu Qiyu was suddenly furious, and his voice was high-pitched: "King Zheng, say it again!"

King Zheng was frightened.

Your Majesty, can you show some face?

Who said you can't afford guards?Obviously it is you, you are both acting and standing, it is difficult for us to do it!
"The minister Zhu Zhanyu is unable to support the guards of the palace due to poor management of the palace and lack of property. I request His Majesty's permission to dismiss the guards of the palace. I am very grateful!"

King Zheng can still speak.

Turning the guards into disbanding themselves, and writing a letter to plead guilty, wouldn't that give the emperor an excuse to abolish the guards?
The kings followed suit.

But King Su and King Huai did not speak. They were worried that after cutting off the guards of the palace, they would become lambs waiting to be slaughtered, without the slightest power to resist.

Whoever the future emperor wants to cut down, he will cut down whose clan.

That is absolutely impossible.

"King Su, what do you think of King Zheng's words?" Zhu Qiyu saw him.

Su Wang Zhu Yanyan is the second generation of Su Wang. The first generation of Su Wang is the No. 14 son of Emperor Taizu, Zhu Yu, who established a vassal in Ganzhou (Zhangye).

King Su has always kept a low profile and is known as the wise man of Ganzhou.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think that King Zheng's words are justified."

What dare King Su say?
His fiefdom is remote and his presence is very low.

Moreover, the emperor stationed troops in Hetao, and sent Kou Shen to supervise Gansu Town. Kou Shen hated the vassal king the most. If he offended the emperor in Qianqing Palace, Kou Shen would torture him to death when he returned to the fief.

"Then why didn't you talk just now?" Zhu Qiyu refused to let him go.

King Su seems to be honest and responsible, but he is actually the think tank of the kings of the Northwest. He is old and has the demeanor of an elder.

This kind of person should be punished.

"My minister is old and is in a daze. Please forgive me." King Su used his age as a cover to save the emperor from whipping him.

Although he has a good brain, he is also afraid of the whip.

After a few strokes of this thing, Iron Man has to obey.

"Older?"

"Yes, King Su is from my uncle's generation, and from my emperor's grandfather Emperor Renzong's generation."

"You are indeed old, but you still have to kneel here."

"It's because I'm too unreasonable."

"King Su please rise up."

Zhu Qiyu sighed.

But no one knows what kind of medicine is sold in the emperor's gourd.

King Su didn't want to remember, he was afraid that the emperor would whip him back and teach him to be a man.

"King Su is not feeling well, so he should stay in Beijing to recuperate." Zhu Qiyu said lightly.

Sure enough, the backhand taught King Su to be a man.

Just as King Su stood up, he knelt on the ground again with a plop: "Your Majesty, this..."

"What? King Su doesn't want to stay in Beijing?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.

"This……"

King Su was at a loss for words.

If you say you don't want to, then your health will be fine, just now you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor!
You can say yes, stay in Beijing, when can you return to the fief?
If he returns to the fiefdom, will King Su be replaced?His brothers and sons are not easy-going.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Su Wang cried and thanked him.

Zhu Qiyu sneered, and turned to Zhu Qiquan, Prince Huai: "Prince Huai, are you not satisfied?"

Duke Huai is a good boy.

It's okay to have a baby at home.

At a young age, he had seven sons, and six of them are alive.

Zhu Qiyu was greedy looking at it.

"This minister is thinking about whether to donate the property of the palace to the court in the face of national crisis!" Duke Huai burst into tears.

He didn't want to step into King Su's footsteps.

The emperor doesn't care how close their blood is, just kill them if they want.

The closer you get, the harder you kill.

The emperor is poisonous.

"Then what do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked quietly.

"My minister is willing to donate all Huai Fan's belongings to the court, so that we can go to the national calamity together!" Duke Huai gave his money.

Just because he didn't agree, he was put on by the emperor.

All the money is gone!
This is not a Hongmen banquet, it is an initiative to cut down feudal clans!
They all took the initiative to stuff them into the emperor's hands, and the emperor threw them out while whipping them, and they had to beg the emperor's men in the end.

What's the matter!
Thinking about it now, it is better to be the orthodox emperor. How happy it would be if King Mobei was restored.

"Is it true?" Zhu Qiyu couldn't see any joy or anger.

"My minister has half a lie, it will be struck by lightning!" Duke Huai swallowed with his teeth smashed.

Fortunately, there was no thunder.

Otherwise, Duke Huai would not be able to explain it clearly.

"You still have filial piety, let Jin Yiwei take over." Zhu Qiyu accepted it all.

Duke Huai was dumbfounded.

Do you really want it?

How about you?You are so rich, why are you so harsh on your relatives?Who are you keeping?You have no son!

"I don't want to take your things for nothing. I gave you a big house in Huai Fan in Beijing, and all the expenses in Beijing will be paid from within."

Of course Zhu Qiyu wants it, and he's not a fool, so why don't you give me money?

Duke Huai was also dumbfounded.

What's the use of giving me Beijing?
How many times can I come to Jingzhong in my life?

You really know how to do business, take a bad check, and set up all my family's wealth.

King Poyang, King Yongfeng, King Qingjiang, King Nankang, King Dexing, King Shunchang, King Chong'an, and the kings of the seven counties of Huai Fan looked at each other in dismay.

They both saw the anger in their eyes.

Why?Zhu Qiquan!

It’s fine if you donate your own wealth, why donate mine too!

"Since the kings have many complaints about the guards of the palace."

"Then disband on its own."

"All the guards, after entering the capital, will be reviewed by the Ministry of War, and those who should be abolished will go into the guard house."

Zhu Qiyu relaxed and abolished the palace guards.

Nowadays, there are 5600 guards in the Prince's Mansion, and more than [-] in the Prince's Mansion. Generals at all levels have guards.

This is the result of five generations of monarchs painstakingly cutting down the vassal.

At a banquet today, it seemed easy to cut off the guards.

In fact, it was five generations, Taizong, Renzong, Xuanzong, Mobei King, and Emperor Jingtai. It took more than [-] years to nibble away at the power of the vassal kings, break the power of the vassal kings into pieces, and slowly raise pigs to develop the power of the vassal kings. If you have a pig, you can also get rid of the guards as a pig.

"But the palace cannot be without guards."

"Decree that the guards of the vassal kings will build beacon towers. If something happens in the manor of the vassals, light the beacon fires. Thousands of households in the guards will come to the guards. Those who don't will be executed!"

Leave the vassal king in Beijing, and come a little bit.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" The kings thanked each other with tears in their eyes, and returned the beacon tower. Believe it or not, the guards will not care if the palace is set alight, and those scholars are in trouble.

From this moment on, the vassal king no longer has the strength to rebel.

Someone laughed at King Su, you now have guards in the palace, but do you dare to rebel?Isn't it still being manipulated casually by the emperor?
The lineage of King Yan is bad, Jianwen is bright, and the lineage of King Yan is dark. From the early years of Yongle to the eighth year of Jingtai, for more than 50 years, they worked hard and secretly cut down the feudal clan.

Do you think you can resist?
Look at King Jing's end.

The emperor only picked the near branch to kill, and after killing the near branch, would he care about the life and death of the far branch?
From the moment they entered Beijing, the kings had no initiative.

The emperor can handle it as he wants.

The era of vassal garrison has passed, and a new era will follow.

The emperor picked up a new wine glass and filled it up: "Since the kings strongly demand to change the ancestral system, then I will follow along and talk about it later."

"Since the beginning has been changed, it has been completely changed!"

"I allow the general to come out and do things!"

"For example, General Zhen Guo, General Feng Guo, Lieutenant Zhen Guo, Lieutenant Fu Guo, Lieutenant Feng Guo, etc., as long as the surname is Zhu, there is no throne!"

"You can come out and do things!"

"Allow him to take the imperial examination, allow him to engage in business, and allow him to engage in agriculture!"

"This year's spring has been delayed. After the Dragon Boat Festival, this year's general examination will be held."

"All the generals of each domain, directly participate in the test!"

"In the future, the generals of all feudal clans will be able to raise their status, participate in the Chunwei, and obtain Jinshi."

"According to your report, don't they all study hard at home?"

"It's just right, I'll test their knowledge."

"Look at how many talents are worth using in the clan."

"I don't stick to one pattern, and use them all!"

The voice fell.

There was an uproar in Qianqing Palace.

The emperor actually allowed the generals of the vassals to participate in the imperial examination, lifting the ban?
This is a good thing that everyone is happy with.

After handing over to the guards of the palace, the emperor turned around and gave everyone a piece of pie.

This move is of great significance to the county prince's family. Except for the prince's son, everyone else is the general of the country, and they have been favored from generation to generation, and their titles are getting lower and lower.

In the year of Yongle, anyone in the vassal's family can only be a pig and cannot work.

The emperor has done a good deed.

However, what the hell is school examination knowledge?

If you test them carrying cages and birds, then there must be no problem. If you test the scriptures, forget it, they probably won't be able to read all the words.

but.

Even if you study, you should read slowly from the elementary level, what the hell are you asking them to participate in the test?

Could it be that the emperor wanted to forcibly conscript the family members of the vassals into Beijing?
The so-called imperial examinations are just whitewashing?

In addition to being pleasantly surprised, some feudal lords came back.

But no one dared to be the first bird.

Just look at what happened to Su Wang and Huai Wang, and you will know that it is definitely unlucky for the early bird.

Zhu Qiyu laughed: "Since the kings have no objection, let's make a decision."

"In order to give generals at all levels enough time to enter Beijing, the date of the test is set on June No. 15. Forty days are enough for them to enter Beijing."

"Come, drink this cup to the brim."

Zhu Qiyu drank again.

The kings wondered why the emperor could drink so much?

Nine glasses of wine, a catty of white wine, but nothing happened.

Nope, when he's crazy it's like drinking too much.

Don't get drunk after beating someone, smart drinking?

wrong.

There is something wrong with this wine!
The kings understood that what the emperor drank was definitely not wine.

The truth is a bit deceitful, the kings burst into tears, and we drank real wine.

The emperor specially prepared high-grade liquor, just waiting for them to drink too much to make a fool of themselves, and then took the opportunity to smoke them.

There seems to be a script!
Without a script, we wouldn't believe it would be such a coincidence!

but!

So what if you figure it out?
Several kings are gone, and the guards have been cut.

The heirs of the vassal prince's mansion also have to enter the capital for the national examination.

Everything is going in the direction planned by the emperor.

They are now only obedient.

This wine suddenly lost its fragrance.

Drink in tears.

Inside and outside the hall, the only one who was really drunk seemed to be Mobei King.

He hiccupped and looked at the emperor with blurred eyes, his resentment was beyond words.

"Cough cough!" The Empress Dowager Sun noticed that Zhu Qizhen lost his composure, and coughed lightly, reminding him to pay attention to his words and expressions.

But King Mobei really drank too much.

Zhu Qiyu swept his eyes and saw the drunk state of King Mobei, and suddenly thought of something.

What I wanted to say before, because King Mobei suddenly entered the palace, so he didn't finish his sentence.

I remembered it this time.

"My lords, I still have a question to ask!" Zhu Qiyu raised his wine glass and said solemnly.
