People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 300 Why can’t I be an emperor like Cheng Zu? The Frankies are provoking again!
Zhu Xianhuai's mind is now full of how to legitimately become the King of Chu.

Although he always felt that Zhu Huakui was definitely not his brother's child.

But in order to calm down the pressure from the entire Chu State, the emperor directly straightened him up without caring whether it was the bloodline of the King of Chu.

This really made Zhu Xianhuai very angry.

He was already very dissatisfied with the royal family, and now he could just find a legitimate excuse to rebel.

He felt that his ancestor Zhu Di, King of Yan, could successfully rebel, so why couldn't he Zhu Xianhuai.

After all, he also felt that he was strong enough.

Looking at the current Chu King Zhu Huakui's lineage, they don't want to listen to themselves and be tamed by themselves.

In his perception, the emperor is similar now.

Because even though the emperor is a few years older than Zhu Huakui, so what? Isn't he just a ten-year-old child?

And who is Chen Han? Isn't he just a minister?
Moreover, I have offended so many people now. I don’t know how many people will follow me if I raise my arms. If I can really achieve the achievements of Chengzu, then the Ming Dynasty may be as prosperous as Emperor Yongle.

When he thought of this, for some reason Zhu Xianhuai felt that he would be able to do the same, and his eyes even shone.

"Now Chen Han's reforms have made the world agitated. No matter the people or the dignitaries, they are not convinced by him. We will destroy him now in the name of Qing Junzi."

He does have some political acumen and knows that many people must be opposed to Chen Han at this time.

"As long as we contact these people and talk things over with them, they won't refuse to agree. The most important thing is that we are saving them. If they don't follow us, their lives will not be easy."

Chang Shi felt that this seemed to make sense, because no matter judging from the reaction of the world or the reaction of officials, there are many people who are full of complaints about Chen Han. If these people are attracted at this time, Maybe they would actually rebel together.

However, Chang Shi still felt that this kind of thing was too important. If it were leaked, it would be a serious crime to kill the nine tribes.

But this Zhu Xianhuai seemed to make the decision very easily, which made Chang Shi feel a bit unreliable.

You must know that the current Ming Dynasty is not the time of Emperor Jianwen. At that time, the generals and civilian officials were alienated, and the original King Yan was a very outstanding commander.

So of course you can lead Yan Bing to be invincible, but who are you?
In fact, he was a vassal king who had never even left Hubei.

He was not even a prince, just a county king, but he already felt that he was invincible on this road.

His honeyed self-confidence made this prince unwilling to be mediocre.

Chang Shi wanted to persuade him when he saw how crazy he was, but when he thought about it, it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Anyway, he just acted according to the situation. Once Zhu Xianhuai showed signs of success, he would follow him.

If this guy is a coward, he will report to the court immediately, so that he can get some credit in exchange.

Chang Shi didn't say a word when he thought of this.

But after Zhu Xianhuai made up his mind, he was impatient. He immediately started to take action, and he really started to contact the vassals from all over the country, especially the kings who were relatively close.

……

Prince Ji's Mansion.

After receiving the secret message from Zhu Xianhuai, King Ji fell into deep thought.

"Wugang King Zhu Xianhuai?" King Ji was very unfamiliar with them.

It doesn't look like they are a family.

In fact, because they have not been in contact with each other for many years, there is only some blood connection between them. The rest is not much different from strangers. At most, when renewing the genealogy, they nod to show that we are relatives.

But now their situations are similar, because unlike King Chu, he is a descendant of King Zhu Di of Yan.

Looking at it this way, it seems that he really has more potential for rebellion than other princes, because their bloodline is relatively more orthodox.
After all, they were personally passed down from the son of Emperor Yongle.

The servant next to him explained to him: "My lord, you don't know something. This King of Wugang is now in control of the King of Chu. The King of Chu is too young, so it is up to him to have the final say."

Only then did King Ji understand: "So that's what happened!"

He carefully read the contents inside. At first, he thought it was just a normal exchange, but when he read the contents, he immediately became nervous: "Call the prince over immediately."

King Ji doesn't dare to make up his mind now.

Because the letter actually wanted to invite him to rebel together.

The successful rebellion of Yan King Zhu Di's lineage made his lineage even more noble.

Although our ancestors could rebel, why can't we now? Besides, it's you who are forcing us now, but King Ji still feels that this matter is not too big.

He is not a very courageous person. Although he has also heard about Chen Han's actions in Henan, he knows that Chen Han, a bastard, dared to kill so many princes. He is a heinous bastard, which is the outrage of both humans and gods. people.

But he is very clear-headed. For his ancestors to be able to successfully rebel, it was because of the right time, place, and people.

He understood the situation very well.

Emperor Jianwen himself was a little confused at that time. He first promoted the status of civilian officials and then suppressed military generals. As a result, military generals and civilian officials were at odds with each other, and not many were willing to contribute on the battlefield.

In addition, Grandfather Taizu had killed nearly all the generals who could fight, and his ancestor, Emperor Yongle, was also a very capable military general, so he was able to successfully pacify the enemy.

There are many conditions here that are not available now.

So King Ji became nervous as soon as he saw this letter.

Even knowing about this kind of thing is a big sin, so he was scared to death.

Soon his Crown Prince came over.

"Father, do you have a problem with the child?"

King Ji looked at him, then waved his hand: "You all, go down!"

All the servants went down, and King Ji handed him the letter to read.

The prince also took a breath after reading the letter.

Rebellion is not something that can be talked about casually. Even if the royal family does such a thing, your whole family will lose their heads.

Not to mention that there is now Chen Han, a powerful minister who is more powerful than the emperor. If Chen Han knows that such a letter exists, he may directly kill the entire King Ji lineage.

After all, he heard that Chen Han, a bastard, had killed all the Zhou kings who were closest to Emperor Taizu in Henan.

Although he is also a prince, he is only from the lineage of King Yan Zhu Di, and the relationship is still far away.

Chen Han didn't even spare the King of Zhou. If something like this happened in his own family, wouldn't he kill him completely?

"Father, can we do this kind of thing?" the prince asked.

He was nervous, very nervous.

I was so nervous that my whole body was sweating, my hands were sweating, and the letter was even wet.

Every word in the letter had a huge destructive effect on him.

King Ji also had sweat all over his forehead.

He couldn't make up his mind.

After thinking for a long time, he said: "Logically speaking, we are not qualified to do such a thing, because we are still... not bad, right..." He felt guilty when he said this, because what he said was not bad was that he did not kill anyone. There are too many ordinary people, but the number of people who have died at their hands over the years must be in three figures.

Occupying people's farmland is even more commonplace.

If you really want to count, there is not much difference between himself and the princes in Henan. Chen Han should not be merciful if he wants to kill him.

Moreover, according to the current reform plan proposed by Chen Han, not to mention the substantial reduction in salary, the clan children who have left the fifth server will have to fend for themselves. This incident has caused great dissatisfaction within the royal clan.

Although some members of the royal family do not have enough to eat, for the favored princes, such a thing does not exist.

From their perspective, Chen Han deserved to die.

You, an outsider, should be damned if you come to interfere with our affairs.

"Father, what do you mean?" The prince seemed to have something wrong with King Ji's face.

"As a father, I mean, do you really think that this Chen Han won't come to deal with us?" King Ji asked.

The prince was at a loss.

In recent years, they have used their status to do some harmful things in the surrounding areas.

This is just routine for them.

Who makes me the prince?
In the past, of course these people dared to be angry but dared not speak out, but now that Chen Han has appeared, the people seem to have a backer.

If some common people suddenly become dissatisfied with themselves one day and follow the example of those in Henan and go to the capital to complain, then I and others will be able to catch him immediately and there will be no chance for him to run away. He might be caught by Chen Han and have his head chopped off.

After hearing what happened in Henan, they were so shocked that they dared not speak for a long time, and even felt that their necks had cracks.

Regardless of Chen Han's reforms, Chen Han's behavior, and his family's misconduct, once the lawsuit is filed, his family will definitely not be able to escape.

"Father, I am telling you an immature idea!" the prince said.

"Say it!" King Ji said.

"From Chen Han's point of view, we are now his key target. Although he seems to have just massacred the vassal kings in Henan, in fact, he may not let us go easily. He just doesn't have time to take care of us now. We, when he frees his hands, we will all die.

Instead of waiting to die, we should take advantage of this opportunity, fight hard, kill him, and kill the current emperor who is angry with both humans and gods. Even if we are not the emperor, our life will be much easier than now. "

His Royal Highness is very courageous.

King Ji actually had the same idea.

Now that all the officials in the world are alienated from Chen Han, it is the best time to attack.

If you miss this opportunity, it is estimated that it will be difficult to have such an opportunity in the future.

"A fight?" King Ji asked.

"Yes! Give it a try!" His Royal Highness said.

"Okay! Since my son has such courage, let's make good preparations and arrange for someone to reply to King Chu right away."

……

Guangdong Haojing.

Cao Zhengchun and Li Rusong were left behind to manage Haojing's port with Chelsea.

Chelsea was very motivated during this period, and nothing else, just because Cao Zhengchun personally went to Manila to pick up his family.

So now Chelsea is also reciprocating the favor and enthusiastically helping Ming Dynasty build the port.

This made Li Rusong feel that the deal was not in vain.

"Report!!" Just as Cao Zhengchun was inspecting the situation at the port, a Jin Yiwei shouted.

Cao Zhengchun and Li Rusong knew very well that in such an urgent situation, the Frankies must have come over.

"Read it!" Cao Zhengchun said.

"Report to the Governor! A large number of Frankian warships were discovered from the South China Sea, and they are heading towards Haojing."

After Jin Yiwei finished his report, Cao Zhengchun and Li Rusong not only did not show any surprise, but instead showed expressions just as the Governor had expected.

And Cao Zhengchun even smiled and said: "Okay! It's finally here. Our family was still thinking of going back to help the governor with work, just waiting to destroy the prestige of the Frankies!"

Chelsea now has great respect for this god.

Can you bear to catch cannonballs with your bare hands?

Facing such a god, no matter how many warships you bring, it will be useless, they will all lead to death.

"Go and find out how many warships there are right away?" Cao Zhengchun said.

The subordinates got out quickly.

There was news the next day.

"Report! Report back to the Governor, the information has been verified, and the Frankies have sent a total of one hundred battleships."

Cao Zhengchun laughed loudly: "Okay! It seems that the Frankies are also anxious. This is probably their main combat force. Okay, I will go to meet them right now."

After saying that, he set off immediately.

His punishment does not mean bringing a lot of warships, he doesn't need them.

For someone like him who can use cannonballs with his bare hands, he only needs to take one person with him.

As for others, they don't need it.

This time Cao Zhengchun still went in an empty boat. The most important thing was that he loaded a lot of big rocks on the boat.

These stones are not big, just about the size of a human head. There must be about twenty of them.

This is mainly because Cao Zhengchun may take the initiative to provoke this time, so he must use this method to get those people to fire. Only by firing can he have a chance to grab their shells.

Li Rusong followed Cao Zhengchun in a boat. He was not there to protect Cao Zhengchun, but to see with his own eyes how powerful Cao Zhengchun was.

One day later, they encountered the Frankian fleet near Hainan Island.

The Frankies from far away used monoculars to see two ships approaching. What surprised them was that the two ships were too small. The ship in the front was even more surprising. How could he? Can you walk without paddling?
Just when they were wondering, they suddenly saw the fair-faced, beardless middle-aged man on the boat jump up, no... he flew up into the air, and then he just raised his hand casually, and on the boat. The big stone flew into his hand.

Then the middle-aged man threw the stone into a cannonball like a hammer. Then, the naval admiral saw that one of his ships was hit.

boom! !

After the earth-shattering noise, before the Frankies could react, a big hole was smashed out of a ship, and then it sank with a creak.

Only then did the general react, "Fire! Blow up that Eastern Devil!!"
