Chapter 452
Zhu Di and Liu Chun got together, one person was full of bad water, and the other, with a strong execution ability, it was a perfect match, and the tacit understanding was beyond words.
They quickly discussed a plan, and Zhu Di immediately arranged to implement it... To be honest, the charges of rebellion have always troubled Zhu Di. Although he raised the banner of maintaining reform, he was still at a disadvantage in overall public opinion. But this battle is the key point to reverse the overall situation!
Zhu Di wanted to completely take the title of righteousness into his hands.
Don’t think that this thing is illusory and worthless. Not to mention anything else, there are many people like Ping An. If you watch them work hard for Zhu Yunwen and die in the battlefield in the end, it will definitely be a loss for the Ming Dynasty. How can they wake up and fight back is the most important thing.
And this time kicking Zhu Yunwen out of the jade certificate is a key step!
Zhu Di attached great importance to it. He first summoned five vassal kings and said his meaning. These five were already on Zhu Di's side, so naturally they had nothing to say, and this method was simply too good.
"Fourth brother, Zhu Yunwende is not worthy of his position, so he should get out of here long ago. We all agree with the fourth brother's proposal!"
Zhu Di said satisfiedly: "Remember, this time he expelled Zhu Yunwen from the jade letter and deprived the royal family of his family was based on two reasons. First, he violated the ancestral teachings and overthrew the reform. Second, he colluded with Mongolia, conspired with foreign thieves, betrayed the people of the Ming territory, and easily gave the country that the late emperor had worked hard to defeat the Mongolian enemy. With these two things, he not only did not deserve to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but also the descendants of the Zhu family were not considered! As the son of the late emperor and the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, we shoulder the responsibility of expelling the barbarians and protecting the people. If our son colluded with the enemy today, how could we bear it! If we don't attack Zhu Yunwen, we will be the son of the late emperor and the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Well said!"
The leader of the Dai King applauded, "Fourth Brother, what you said has reached everyone's hearts. Zhu Yunwen is simply crazy and can do anything. Let's issue a manifesto everywhere immediately."
"Don't be anxious." Zhu Di stopped him, "For such a big thing, we must act according to etiquette. Three days later, we will pay tribute to the late emperor and tell him about Zhu Yunwen's sins. At the same time, in front of the late emperor, he adhered to the emperor's orders and ancestral teachings and kicked Zhu Yunwen out of the jade certificate. This is the right way!"
Zhu Chun nodded, "The fourth brother is right, that's it!"
With Zhu Di's order, the whole of Xi'an started moving, and the location was chosen in the large campus outside the East Gate. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers gathered, with flags everywhere and people everywhere.
It's dense and endless, and you can't see it at first sight.
Not only the soldiers, but also the people of Xi'an and merchants from all over the country came, and they were waiting outside.
Zhu Di led the six vassal kings and came to the school ground one after another. Zhu Di was wearing bright armor and pressed a sword in his hand, full of majesty.
"Please invite the statue of the late emperor!"
With a command, a soldier carried Lao Zhu's statue and walked slowly over. This was a seated statue. Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a dragon robe, with a kind face and a slight smile. His eyes looked straight ahead, as if he was in court!
When everyone placed the statue firmly, Zhu Di took the lead in kneeling on the ground!
"Father, son-in-law leads five younger brothers, together with the 100,000 soldiers, and the people of Xi'an, to pay homage to Father!"
Zhu Di led the ceremony of the king and his subjects.
At the moment when the statue of Zhu Yuanzhang appeared, many veterans of generals couldn't help crying.
Perhaps when Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, many people complained about him and criticized him in one kind or another, but once Zhu Yuanzhang died, the world was in chaos. The war over the past year made everyone understand the value of Lao Zhu.
As the saying goes, only when you lose it will you know how to cherish it. Everyone cries like tears.
Zhu Di wiped his eyes and stood up again. When everyone calmed down, he stopped his sad voice. Zhu Di suddenly raised something!
He said loudly: "This is the teaching of the Emperor Ming Dynasty! It is the governing strategy revised by the late emperor in his later years, the fruit of the late emperor's mind, and the foundation of the unchanging Ming Dynasty forever!"
"After the death of the late emperor, the emperor's grandson Yunwen inherited the throne. However, after ascending the throne, he violated the ancestral teachings, harmed important officials, and made great reforms in danger. The son Zhu Di had to raise the flag of uprising and worship the Tian Jing Dynasty. He actually hoped that Zhu Yunwen could reform himself and become a new person. Who would have thought that he would be unwilling to be a villain and do his own thing! He would have been a local brave man, set up a gold medal, and poison the people of the world. It is especially hateful. Collusion with Mongolia and betray the territory of his ancestors is tolerant, but who would not bear it!"
When Zhu Di said this, he raised his voice again.
"As a clan, I uphold the teachings of my father, abolished the Zhu Yunwen royal family status and eliminated him from the jade certificate. My son is not for his own selfishness, but for the country, the people of the Ming Dynasty, and for the people of the world, and for the hard work of my father!"
"In front of my father, I want to tell Zhu Yunwen that he must stop immediately and give up all kinds of evil deeds. The Jingnan Army is willing to negotiate with him, to eliminate the war, and to restore peace to the people. If you don't listen, the son begs to testify in the spirit of heaven, and the son will definitely command the Jingnan army and eradicate these unworthy descendants who betray their ancestors! If you cannot succeed, the son is willing to die to thank the world!"
After Zhu Di finished speaking, he turned around, pulled out his sword and raised it high.
"Soldiers, do you know? Zhu Yunwen sent his subordinates to send letters to the Mongolians, asking them to cross Hetao and attack our rear. There are still many more. After the matter is done, give the Daning Dusi to the Mongolians! Zhu Di asked everyone, can you bear it?"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
The soldier roared angrily, his voice shaking.
Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction, "I worshipped the Tian Jingshen to eradicate the traitors and restore the laws of the ancestors. Now that foreign invaders are attacking, although I am weak in virtue and strength, I am definitely unable to allow the Tartars to slaughter the people of the Ming Dynasty!"
"The late emperor raised a three-foot sword, revolted and raised troops, swept the Yuan Dynasty, and restored the rivers and mountains of China. The late emperor's thirty-one years of imperial power, and eight northern expeditions were recaptured, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were restored, and the Sixteen Prefectures of Liaodong were captured, and the Hetao was captured! The late emperor's martial arts were so prosperous that he was far away from the Han and Tang Dynasties. The late emperor's life was in the wars of the Tatars. When did he make peace with the Tatars? When did he give up in an inch of land!"
"Zhu Di is not talented. Since he is the son of the late emperor, he dare not violate the order of the late emperor. This king announced that he would immediately send a hundred thousand troops north to fight against the Tartars, and would surely protect Hetao and not let the Tartars harm the people of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Di said contemptuously: "Zhu Yunwen, your trick has succeeded. I will divide my troops north to resist foreign humiliation and protect the people. You can take the opportunity to send troops to attack Xi'an. As long as you dare to come, I will let you understand what the heart of heaven and what the public opinion is!"
"The King of Yan is a thousand years old!"
"The King of Yan is mighty!"
"The Jingnan Army is mighty!"
The majestic shouts went straight to the sky.
After finally everyone calmed down, Zhu Di said again: "The people of the world should see clearly. Zhu Yunwen has become a puppet in the hands of a few ministers! These traitors have ulterior motives. They surround Zhu Yunwen, shaking their lips and tongues, twisting their right and wrong. Abolishing the reforms, promoting the local bravery, and setting up Kalijin... What they did was nothing more than satisfying the greedy appetite of the scholars and treating the people of the world as fish to take and ask for!"
"I hope that the people of the world can see clearly and follow the Jingnan army and attack Zhu Yunwen and the slandered ministers around him! I know more deeply about the officialdom, among the scholars, there are many wise ministers and righteous men whom the late emperors valued in Japan. I hope that you can follow the heavens and follow the Jingnan army, and follow Zhu Yunwen, you will have no other way except to be ruined!"
"I also hope that those imperial guards and nobles and old ministers can fight back. Zhu Yunwen is a martial man like a slave, and the people are an ant. You are bleeding in front of the formation, but your family is exploited by gentry and bureaucrats, and live a life of not being able to eat. Brothers, soldiers, will you still have a good end with such a foolish monarch?"
...
Zhu Di's speech was definitely many times better than what he said in a hurry, and almost every word was worth a fortune, which directly set the tone for Jingnan.
First of all, Zhu Di, holding the emperor's ancestors in front of the statue of Zhu Yuanzhang, kicked Zhu Yunwen out of the jade certificate, which was equivalent to declaring that Zhu Yunwen was no longer a descendant of the Zhu family. Since he was not a descendant of the Zhu family, the throne would naturally be illegal.
Secondly, Zhu Di expressed his attitude, and he wanted to go north to resist Mongolia, while serving the Tian Jingshen and protecting the people, and to have the best of both worlds.
Third, Zhu Di shouted to almost everyone that ordinary business people should support Jingnan, civil officials with conscience should cut off relations with Zhu Yunwen, and generals and soldiers should fight back.
Obviously, Zhu Di aimed at Zhu Yunwen, the few civil officials around him, as well as the landlords of aristocratic families on the ground, and this small group of people were both enemies of reform and the enemy of Fengtian Jingnan.
He raised troops to calm the crisis, not only did he not deceive the emperor, but instead used war means to continue the reforms of the late emperor... It is no exaggeration to say that Zhu Di completely won the title of righteousness at this moment.
The situation on the battlefield was turning around, and the balance of people's hearts was also tilted towards Zhu Di... Liu Chun had already arranged secret stakes, and all of them used all their skills to spread Zhu Di's speech everywhere, spared no effort.
As expected, these speeches were sent to Yingtian and placed in front of Zhu Yunwen!
"Reverse!"
Zhu Yunwen roared sternly. Over the past period of time, he had gradually adapted to the throne. Although he was internal and external troubles, Zhu Yunwen felt that he could still deal with it. After all, he was the emperor and occupied the richest resources of the Ming Dynasty. He had countless manpower and financial resources, and there was no danger of failure.
Now that things have happened, he has no such confidence.
The six vassal kings convened a meeting of clans and deprived him of his royal identity, which was like a fierce straight punch, which made Zhu Yunwen dizzy and couldn't find Bei!
what to do?
what to do?
How can we win back the hearts of the people?
Zhu Yunwen had to summon all the civil officials to discuss countermeasures together... At this time, Liuyuan Huang Guan, who had been silent, suddenly stood up.
"I report to Your Majesty. Since Yan Ni dares to deprive His Majesty of the royal family, Your Majesty should confront him, eliminate their vassal kings, and call on the world to attack together."
Zhu Yunwen nodded. This was a solution, but the problem was that it had fallen behind and was not very useful.
Fortunately, Zhu Yunwen will never lack geniuses, so Chen Di, the Minister of Rites, suddenly stood up, "Your Majesty, the vassal kings are planning to rebel, and the world is shocked. The old minister thinks that Your Majesty should surrender his own edict to win back the hearts of the people and boost morale!"
"Is it a crime?" Zhu Yunwen said unhappily: "I, what is my crime?"
Chen Di hurriedly said: "The old minister was frightened. The old minister did not say that Your Majesty was guilty, but said that the royal family rebelled and fought against each other. The people saw it and were inevitably talking about it. As the emperor, his Majesty imitated the kings of all generations and issued a self-destruction. The people will be grateful and sincere, and they will be united in their hearts and will not worry about the immortal rebellion!"
