Chapter 393 King Lu is afraid (fourth update, please vote for me)

Lin Cunde told the princes and princes of the counties that he would deal with the vassal kings. Those princes and princes still did not believe it, but now, they saw that the vassal princes of their own line were sent to prison, and they knew that what Lin Cunde said was true. of!

Lin Cunde wants to kill those feudal kings!

Thinking of this, the eight princes and princes were so frightened that they believed what Lin Cunde said before. If those princes did not die, then they would die!

But they don’t want to die yet, and they don’t want their father to die either!

That night, Zhu Qiyu received the news that they were coming! No instructions either!

The next day, King Qin, King Qing, King Su, King Han, who were crowned kings of Shaanxi, and King Tang whose fiefdom was in Nanyang, arrived in the capital together, and also entered the imperial edict!

The Eight Kings will arrive soon!

When Zhu Qiyu saw that the eight kings had arrived, he was not in a hurry to see them. Instead, he was waiting for the other princes to come back. This time, Zhu Qiyu had people copy what the eight kings had done. He copied everything clearly and distributed it to other vassal kings. The vassal kings and county kings all returned to Beijing to discuss this matter!

The first one to come back was King Lu, King Lu Zhu Zhaohui. When he implemented the New Deal in Shandong, King Lu still did a good job. Although the losses were huge, he did not dare to do anything. Therefore, this time he received the imperial edict from Zhu Qiyu. After that, you can set off and be the first to arrive in the capital!

When other vassal kings received the imperial edict, they were still very hesitant and didn't know whether to go. However, King Ning in Nanchang also set out. Nanchang implemented the New Deal, but he did not dare to move. Lin Cunde was in Jiangxi at the beginning. If he had If it moves, the first one will be destroyed. Therefore, after receiving the imperial edict this time, he did not dare to hesitate and set off immediately!

When the King of Liao and other vassal kings in the south saw King Ning returning to Beijing in Jingzhou Prefecture, they set off immediately. No one dared to delay. They were also a little afraid of Zhu Qiyu now. Although he seemed to be honest and kind, they Everyone knows that no matter how kind he is, he is still an emperor. Moreover, this anti-corruption campaign has arrested so many officials!

Many officials were beheaded, and a large number of officials were exiled. This time it shocked the entire Ming Dynasty officials!

In addition, no matter what, Zhu Qiyu also holds the Ming army in his hands. Who dares to make a mistake?

Zhu Zhaohui had just returned to Beijing and asked to see Zhu Qiyu. Zhu Qiyu was very happy and agreed immediately!

Soon, Lu Wang Zhu Zhaohui came to Qianqing Palace and was taken to the imperial study by Cheng Jing! "

The prince still had to go through a set of etiquette when meeting His Majesty. Zhu Zhaohui completed the set of etiquette very honestly. Zhu Qiyu smiled and said to Zhu Zhaohui: "Prince Lu, come, come and sit here. This is my first time seeing you!" However, I am aware of your contribution to the implementation of the New Deal in Shandong and I am grateful!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I don't dare to say contribution, I just do something within my ability!" Zhu Zhaohui said quickly with his hands in hand.

"That's not bad. I know the situation of your vassal king. Come on, come and sit down!" Zhu Qiyu said enthusiastically.

Zhu Zhaohui saluted Zhu Qiyu again and then sat down opposite Zhu Qiyu.

"I asked you to come here this time. I made it very clear in the edict that I hope you will come to the capital to discuss the Eight Kings collaborating with the enemy. In fact, I don't want to do anything to them. We finally defeated Wala last year. , hoping that last winter and this winter, some people and livestock in Wala would freeze and starve to death, but they did not expect that they would actually collaborate with the enemy and sell supplies to Wala!

For this reason, the army has very strong opinions. Originally, according to the plan, I was preparing to go on an expedition to Oara again in the past two years. However, the country has to implement the New Deal, and I dare not attack rashly. In addition, I have just ascended the throne, and many things have changed. I was not familiar with it and was afraid of another big defeat, so I wanted to wait first, but I didn’t expect it! They actually do this! "Zhu Qiyu sat there and said with a worried look!

Mr. Zhu Zhaohui was very moved. The tone of Zhu Qiyu's words just now was not hidden from him, as if he was speaking sincerely! "King Lu, this time you vassal kings should also consider it, discuss it together, and see what should be done about this matter? I don't want to kill the clan, but if I really have no choice, I will I can’t help but kill him!

Otherwise, I have no way to explain to the army. They fight desperately on the front line and fight with their lives. This finally gives them an advantage. Now that something like this happens again, what do you think I should do?

It is precisely because I don’t know what to do that I called all of you vassal kings back to discuss it. After you come back, you can go to the prison to see them once. Go and ask them about the evidence I gave you. ,Is it real! Also ask them, what do they think? They are the royal descendants of my Ming Dynasty, they are my Ming Dynasty clan! Zhu Qiyu said with a sad look on his face.

"Yes, Your Majesty, by doing this, they have indeed hurt my identity as a royal son, and even more so, my identity as the Prince of the Ming Dynasty. It is indeed worthy of death!" King Lu immediately said with his hand.

"Well, I won't see the other vassal kings one by one. When they come back, you can talk to them so that they can celebrate the New Year in the capital with peace of mind. In addition, when they arrive, I will meet them together again, right? This I have a lot of things going on for a while, and the end of the year is approaching, and many things need a result!" Zhu Qiyu said to King Lu.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will make it clear to the princes. Your Majesty, don't be too tired!" King Lu stood up and persuaded Zhu Qiyu.

"It's okay. It's not bad now. I'm not as tired as before. Come, sit down and drink tea. You can also tell me about the shortcomings of Shandong's New Deal. Tell me about it. I want to know the shortcomings of the New Deal!" Zhu Qiyu pressed his hand to King Renlu and motioned for him to sit down and talk!

"Yes, Your Majesty, the New Deal has no shortcomings. On the contrary, it has many advantages!" King Lu is nothing. Even if there are shortcomings, he should not talk about them himself. Moreover, up to now, those shortcomings are not important to the civil servants and the vassal king. , it may be a shortcoming, but to His Majesty, it is not a shortcoming! "If I really said it stupidly, then it would not be a shortcoming, but a complaint!

"Well, you can talk about anything, it doesn't matter!" Zhu Qiyu said with a smile!

King Lu then began to talk about the situation of Shandong's New Deal. Anyway, it was right to praise him!

King Lu and Zhu Qiyu chatted in the imperial study for half an hour before Zhu Qiyu asked King Lu to go out. King Lu also wanted to go to the harem to pay his respects to the Queen Mother and the Empress. However, Princess Lu also entered the palace and was currently in the Queen Mother's room. In the palace, Queen Wang Meilin and the prince happened to be accompanying the Queen Mother!

When King Lu passed by, they happened to meet him, and King Lu also paid his respects to the three of them!

After coming out of the palace, King Lu also sat in the carriage without saying anything.

"Your Majesty? You haven't said a word since you left the palace, but what's the problem?" Princess Lu looked at Prince Lu and asked carefully.

After hearing this, King Lu turned to look at the princess, and then sighed and said: "This time, the eight kings are in trouble. If we want to keep the eight kings, we must pay a price. This price is not known to other vassals." Is the king willing to pay? If he is not willing to pay, the eight kings may want to eliminate the country, but once they are eliminated, it will be a matter of time for our remaining vassal kings!"

"Your Majesty, how dare you do this?" Princess Lu looked at King Lu in surprise and asked.

"Why don't you dare to do this? The Eight Kings went too far and His Majesty was furious! Even though His Majesty said that he did not want to kill them? Think about it, if His Majesty had no intention to kill, what would he have said? Your Majesty would have done this to them? They are murderous! Those evidences are probably true. If it is true, then they are really looking for death. How can they do this and dare to do this?" King Lu sighed and analyzed in his mind. The news I just got from meeting Zhu Qiyu!

"This, then this has nothing to do with us!" Princess Lu said after hearing this, she still didn't understand.

"It doesn't matter now, it can be done later. Who knows what mistakes we will make in the future. Even if we are careful, what about our children? Will they make mistakes? Once they make mistakes, they will destroy the country. Who can bear this!

So this time, I need to convince the vassal kings not to eliminate the country, but not to let His Majesty kill the eight kings, otherwise everyone will be in trouble!

Your Majesty is still young and in the prime of life, and with the help of good ministers around you, you will surely accomplish great things!

Even though His Majesty looks kind-hearted, he is also a powerful master when he really takes action. Concubine Sun is an example. Who would have thought that just a few months after His Majesty ascended the throne, he would neglect Empress Dowager Sun, and then depose the Supreme Emperor. , Crown Prince, Queen Mother Sun became Princess Sun! There is a trick here!

There are a few people who can become emperors who are kind-hearted!

Even if he is merciful, he must look at the right person, but he will definitely not be merciful to us lords. Therefore, this time, we lords are going to bleed heavily!

If there is no heavy bleeding, let your majesty go and punish those eight kings severely, just watch, everyone will die by then!

I guess His Majesty asked us to come over, and it wasn’t as simple as killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. Let’s see! King Lu leaned there and said with a sneer!

Today he went to see Zhu Qiyu. Zhu Qiyu looked very kind and seemed to be telling the truth to him. However, King Lu did not believe these words. Of course, he had to show his gratitude!

But I am afraid in my heart. The more His Majesty behaves like this, the more ruthless he will be!

Zhu Zhaohui returned to his vassal palace, and the housekeeper in the capital immediately followed Zhu Zhaohui to the study!

Although those vassal kings rarely return to the capital, they basically have their own mansions in the capital and have a butler. And this housekeeper must be a confidant of the vassal king and help the vassal king inquire about news in the capital!

"This tea set is really good!" Zhu Zhaohui sat at the head of the tea table and started making tea!

"Yes, the Marquis of Luling came up with it first. Now the whole capital drinks tea like this, and some teahouses also use such tea tables!" the steward said to Zhu Zhaohui.

"Sit down, it's just the two of us here, tell me about the situation in the capital!" Zhu Zhaohui said with a smile to the butler, who was a confidant.
