My father Yongle, building a five-good family

Chapter 142: Jingnan is the orthodox way!

Peng Er looked at Zhu Di's troops, which seemed like divine troops descending from the sky, and was a little dazed for a moment.

But soon he came to his senses, snorted coldly, and turned his head away, as if he wanted to tell King Yan through such actions that no matter how high-sounding he was, King Yan was always a traitor.

If there is any difference, it is that the disguise worn by King Yan is more reasonable.

Zhu Di glanced at Peng Er, then retracted his gaze and came to Zhu Gaoyu.

As soon as Zhu Gaoyu came up, he began to take credit:

"Dad, why did you come just now? Xizhimen is just a mere gate. I can easily take it with my five hundred guards. If I were to rely on you... humph! The opportunity would be gone soon."

It would have been better if Zhu Gaoyu hadn't said anything. After he said this, Zhu Di remembered the anxiety and nervousness he felt when he was looking for Zhu Gaoyu on the way here.

This damn kid could have gone anywhere else, but he chose Xizhimen, the toughest place to go.

But fortunately, it was safe in the end.

It can even be said that it was because of the appearance of Zhu Gaoyu and his personal guards that the situation of confrontation between the two sides was reversed in one fell swoop, and the commander-in-chief Peng Er was directly captured.

As an old father, Zhu Di felt half emotional and half proud at this moment, but at the same time he also felt countless fears.

Even if Zhu Di personally went into battle, he did not feel that kind of heart-pounding tension.

Of course, Zhu Di would not tell Zhu Gaoyu about these complicated feelings.

The thing this kid is best at is climbing up the pole.

Zhu Di snorted coldly:
"I'll take care of you when I get back!"

Zhu Gaoyu snorted and looked at him sideways:
"Dad, is this how you treat your heroes?"

A smile also appeared on Zhu Di's face.

But after hearing what his father said, Zhu Gaoyu looked at this smile and felt it was eerie no matter how he looked at it.

Then Zhu Di said, "Have you ever heard of this saying... the ruler is the ruler, the minister is the minister, the father is the father, the son is the son?"

Zhu Gaoyu remained silent.

When he saw Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui behind Zhu Di, he quickly rode forward and boasted about his previous behavior.

"Brother, why did you guys come just now? I just shot down the Xizhimen commander Peng Er from among the thousands of soldiers, and only then did I stabilize the situation..."

"Speaking of which, it was pitch dark at the time. I felt a gust of evil wind coming, and a flash of inspiration passed through my mind. Almost instantly, I drew my bow and arrow, and it flew away like flowing water. I only heard a whoosh sound like a meteor passing by, and the arrow broke through the air..."

"The moonlight shines on me, and I feel as if I have absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon. Even though my body is covered in blood, I am full of energy, as if I have endless strength..."

When the two elder brothers Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui heard this, they all looked at Xiao Si with empty eyes.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but sneered:
"Old Four, do you think you are writing some kind of strange travelogue?"

Zhu Gaoyu snorted:
"What do you mortals know?!"

Zhu Gaoxu just felt his head throbbing.

Children are really annoying!
Zhu Gaosui now resigned himself to his fate and began to smooth things over, bringing up another topic:

"Old Four, that Peng Er seems to be a tough nut to crack. How are you going to deal with him?"

As he spoke, Zhu Gaosui glanced at his younger brother, thinking that after all, he was young and had little experience, and he was afraid that he still had a trace of compassion in his heart and would not be willing to kill anyone easily.

But Zhu Gaoyu only asked back after hearing this:
"why not?"

Zhu Gaosui could not help but persuade him earnestly:
"Xiao Si, although Peng Er is a man of integrity and talent, he refused to bow his head in the face of so many soldiers from the Prince of Yan's Palace, and chose to fight to the death. Although you have captured him alive, how can you make him change his mind? Even... use him for your own purposes..."

Zhu Gaoyu glanced at his third brother and subconsciously started to speak rudely:
"Third brother, do you know why you don't have a title yet, but I'm already the Prince of Dinghai? Because our situations... are different."

state!
Zhu Gaosui couldn't help but gave his younger brother an iron fist.

It’s better to beat your brother as early as possible.

Especially a younger brother like Zhu Gaoyu.

Because when he gets older, you won’t be able to beat him anymore.

Zhu Gaoyu held his head, feeling aggrieved.

Wait for him!

He wrote down all the people who hit him on the head, including his father, the second brother, the third brother... in his little notebook!

……

After a night of fierce fighting, all nine gates of Peking were captured.

Although some miscellaneous soldiers and generals fled to Juyongguan, Jizhou, Huailai and other places, to the King of Yan, they were nothing more than vagrant soldiers and scattered brave men.

By the time the morning light faded, the bloodstains at the Nine Gates had been almost cleaned up.

Peng Er was tied up so tightly that he looked like a dumpling.

When Zhu Gaoyu came closer, he spat on the surface of Zhu Gaoyu's shoes.

Zhu Gaoyu was so angry:

"What are you doing?!"

Peng Er snorted coldly with a strong sense of dignity: "Traitors, everyone has the right to kill you! You are the Prince of Dinghai appointed by the late emperor himself!"

At this point, Zhu Gaoyu was no longer convinced.

"My father was a prince appointed by my grandfather. He has been working hard to guard the bitter cold of Peking. Without these 'kings of the frontier' as a barrier, how could there be singing and dancing and the soft Wu dialect along the Qinhuai River in Yingtian Prefecture? How could there be singing and dancing and peace in the Golden Palace?!"

"Even so, Emperor Jianwen killed my father and even my uncles. Is this what he should do?"

Peng Er choked, but soon he reacted, stiffened his neck, and wanted to refute.

Even without using his brain, Zhu Gaoyu knew what this idiot was going to say.

Alas, adults are stubborn.

He is so stubborn, like a stubborn donkey.

Zhu Gaoyu came close to Peng Er and said softly:
"Who said my father was rebelling? My father was doing this to quell the rebellion, and he had legitimate reasons."

Bullshit Fengtian Jingnan. This time, Peng Er did not attack with saliva, but looked at Zhu Gaoyu with a look like a fool, and said disdainfully:

"Do you think I'm a kid like you? You believe whatever others say. Boy, don't think that your father and you are blessed with good fortune and destiny just because there is a cloud covering your head."

"This kind of thing may be enough to fool ordinary people, but you still want to fool me?"

When Zhu Gaoyu heard this, contrary to his usual behavior, he was not angry.

All he said was, "Are you sure?"

Peng Er laughed immediately:
"Can you regret saying this?"

Zhu Gaoyu smiled and said nothing, but walked closer to his father.

At this moment, after Zhu Di had stabilized his troops, he gathered his soldiers at Xizhimen.

Behind him, Zhu Gaoyu, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui stood in order.

Zhu Di's sons were all tall. Even though Zhu Gaochi was fat, he was not short compared with the ordinary people.

This is one of the few good genes he inherited in terms of physique.

at this time.

The sky broke.

Zhu Di glanced at all the soldiers with his fierce eyes. Among them were the thousand-householders who had followed him across the desert and captured Nairbuhua on a snowy night, as well as the extraordinary people who had surrendered and were willing to serve him.

The road ahead is unclear.

But for a moment, a feeling of pride surged in Zhu Di's heart.

Facing the huge crowd of people, he took a deep breath and spoke immediately:
"...Now that the young master has succeeded to the throne, he has trusted the traitors and caused great disasters, slaughtering my family..."

"The ancestral teachings say: 'If there are no loyal ministers in the court and there are treacherous people in the court, we must train troops to fight against them and eliminate the evil around the emperor.'"

"The righteous and the treacherous are not equal, we must obey the will of Heaven to ensure the safety of the country... This is to obey Heaven and quell the rebellion!"

The words just fell.

Suddenly a strong wind blew.

Peking is located in a border town and sandstorms often blow in during the spring.

Now is the Waking of Insects season. Suddenly, a sandstorm blows by. The sand and gravel hit my face, scratching my cheeks and causing pain.

It's strange to say, the sandstorm was so strong that although the soldiers were only a few feet away, they couldn't see each other's faces clearly in the sandstorm.

When the wind and sand settled, bad things happened one after another.

The tiles on the eaves, which were already crumbling, fell to the ground immediately after being blown by the wind.

Accompanied by a crisp sound.

Tiles are broken.

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

The captured Peng Er shouted loudly:

"The tiles on the eaves fell to the ground and shattered. This is a sign of the wrath of heaven!"

Yao Guangxiao's expression moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

But before he could open his mouth, Zhu Gaoyu slid in front of everyone.

"Father, now that a true dragon has been born, there will be wind and rain to accompany it. The tiles falling to the ground is a good omen!"

Peng Er's eyes widened.

Can it still be like this? !
Not to mention Peng Er, even Zhu Gaochi and other people who knew the truth, looked at Zhu Gaoyu in a very different way.

Zhu Gaoyu seemed to think that this dose of deception was not strong enough, and gave Xiao Jixiang a look.

Then Xiao Jixiang grunted and carried out a camphorwood box.

Bang.

As soon as the box was opened.

Zhu Gaoyu carefully unfolded the silk in the box.

The silk was shimmering in the morning light, and the patterns on it were so vivid that the soldiers could easily tell at a glance that the silk was... a map!
Moreover, this map is probably of quite a prominent origin, because in addition to the territory of the Ming Dynasty, it also includes the outlines of many foreign countries overseas and even in the Western Regions.

Zhu Gaoyu shook the "Great Ming Unification Map" in his hand, his eyebrows raised.

Seeing his bold and bold movements, people who knew the situation, like Zhu Di and Daoyan, couldn't help but frown.

The map of the unified Ming Dynasty in Zhu Gaoyu's hand is real.

He just shook the map like this, not afraid of the silk being torn.

Zhu Gaoyu didn't think too much and said directly:

"Do you know what this is?"

Before anyone else could say anything, he answered again:
"This is the 'Great Ming Unified Map'! I am the only one in the Great Ming who has such a map."

"Grandpa Emperor was very wise and righteous. Before he died, he saw that there were treacherous villains in the court. Just in case, he gave me the treasure map."

"The map is in my hands, and it was given to me by the Emperor himself. My father, the King, has been in rebellion. Who dares to call him a traitor?"

"To obey the will of Heaven and quell the rebellion is to carry on the will of Grandfather Emperor."

"Jingnan is the orthodox way!"
