Chapter 908: The resistance of the New Deal covers the sky with one hand
Prince Zhu Biao clenched his fists, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "Uncle Hanwang, we can no longer sit back and wait for death. We must take the initiative to break Zhu Di's conspiracy."
Zhu Han put away the secret letter, glanced at the ministers present, and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Di used the Jin Yiwei to exert pressure in order to shake Chao Gang. We must not let his conspiracy succeed. Sirs, do you have any good strategies to break this?
Game?"
An old minister pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "Your Highness, Your Highness King Han, the Jin Yiwei is extremely powerful and secretive. If we want to confront them directly, it may not be effective. Why don't we adopt a roundabout strategy to divide and disintegrate their power."
Another middle-aged minister nodded in agreement: "I think we can start from within Jinyiwei, find those Jinyiwei who have a righteous mind and are dissatisfied with what Zhu Di has done, and contact them secretly to win their support or neutrality."
Prince Zhu Biao frowned and thought for a moment before saying: "Although this plan is wonderful, it is extremely difficult to implement and requires extreme caution. We need to send absolutely reliable people to carry out it secretly."
Zhu Han nodded slightly and turned to a young and astute minister: "Master Li, you have always been known for your resourcefulness, so I will leave this matter to you. You must act carefully to ensure nothing goes wrong."
Mr. Li handed over his hands to accept the order with a firm look on his face: "I will do my best to live up to the trust of His Highness and His Highness King Han."
At this time, a veteran who had been contending with Zhu Di for a long time stood up, with a hint of disdain in his voice: "Zhu Di thinks that he can do whatever he wants with the help of the imperial guards? Huh, don't forget, after all, this country of the Ming Dynasty still belongs to His Majesty. We can submit a letter
Your Majesty, please speak out about Zhu Di's evil deeds and ask for severe punishment."
Zhu Han nodded in agreement, but then added: "The letter is naturally important, but we also need to prepare sufficient evidence to make your Majesty irrefutable. At the same time, we should strengthen the contact between the Qingliu people in the DPRK and form a force that cannot be ignored.
"
A trace of determination flashed in the eyes of Prince Zhu Biao: "What Uncle Han Wang said is absolutely true. We must not only submit a letter, but also publicly question Zhu Di at the court meeting so that he can have no escape."
During the discussion, an attendant hurriedly entered the meeting hall and reported nervously: "Your Highness, Your Highness King Han, there is urgent news coming from outside. Zhu Di sent Jinyi guards to surround the residence of several adults with the intention of taking them away by force.
"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the meeting hall. Zhu Han stood up suddenly, with a flash of coldness in his eyes: "How dare Zhu Di be so arrogant! Send the order quickly, mobilize the forbidden army, and be sure to protect the safety of the adults without making any mistakes!"
Upon hearing this, Prince Zhu Biao looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Han Wang, this matter cannot be delayed. We must act immediately to prevent the situation from deteriorating further."
Zhu Han nodded, quickly turned around and ordered to the attendants beside him: "Immediately send an order to the commander of the Forbidden Army, ordering him to lead elite soldiers and strong generals to lift the siege of the adults by the Jinyi Guards as soon as possible and ensure the safety of the adults."
The attendant took the order and left in a hurry to carry out the order.
In the meeting hall, the atmosphere was tense and solemn, and all the ministers looked at each other with anger at Zhu Di's atrocities and worries about the upcoming conflict.
Zhu Han looked around the crowd and said in a firm and powerful voice: "My lords, what Zhu Di has done is a blatant provocation to the laws of the Ming Dynasty. We must not only rescue the besieged people, but also take this opportunity to completely expose Zhu Di's conspiracy.
, and bring peace and tranquility to the court."
An old minister stood up, cupped his hands and said, "What His Royal Highness King Han said is absolutely true, but Zhu Di is powerful, so we need to take steps step by step and not act rashly."
Zhu Han nodded in agreement: "What the boss said is reasonable. We need to formulate a careful plan to rescue the besieged ministers and avoid unnecessary conflicts, so as not to bring greater turmoil to the court."
Prince Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and suggested: "We might as well divide our troops into two groups. One group will be led by the elite of the Forbidden Army to rescue the besieged ministers. The other group will be led by Uncle Han himself to meet with the father and report Zhu Di's crimes one by one.
Tell me clearly and ask for the Holy Father's decree."
When Zhu Han heard this, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes: "Your Highness, this plan is very clever. It uses a two-pronged approach to quickly rescue the besieged ministers, and allows the father to know the truth and make a fair decision."
While everyone was discussing, a general of the Forbidden Army hurriedly walked into the meeting hall, knelt down on one knee and reported: "His Royal Highness King Han, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Forbidden Army has been assembled and is ready to set out to rescue the besieged ministers at any time."
After Zhu Han heard this, he stood up and said to the general of the Forbidden Army: "Okay, you will lead the Forbidden Army there immediately. You must be careful to ensure the safety of the adults. At the same time, I will order the guards along the way to provide you with all necessary assistance."
The general of the imperial army took the order and left, and the atmosphere in the meeting hall relaxed a little. Zhu Han turned to Prince Zhu Biao and said: "Your Highness, we will go to the palace immediately to meet with the father and present Zhu Di's crimes one by one."
Zhu Han said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, we must be fully prepared to ensure that every piece of evidence presented is irrefutable."
Prince Zhu Biao nodded and said firmly: "What Uncle Han Wang said is absolutely true. We not only need solid evidence, but also a proper strategy to avoid offending our father."
After the two discussed for a while, they decided that Zhu Han would go to see the emperor first, present preliminary evidence, and test the emperor's attitude, and then the prince Zhu Biao would make further responses based on the emperor's reaction.
Zhu Han walked into the palace, knelt down and saluted, and then slowly handed over the secret book in his hand: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report. I have collected some conclusive evidence about the actions of Zhu Di and his party members."
The emperor took the secret fold, frowned slightly, and did not start reading immediately. Instead, he asked lightly: "King Han, do you know that Zhu Di is my biological son? Have you thought about the consequences of your actions?"
Zhu Han replied neither humble nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty, I know that Zhu Di is of royal blood, but the laws of the country cannot be abolished, and everything I do is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty."
The emperor pondered for a moment, with a hint of displeasure in his tone: "Although Zhu Di made mistakes, I have my own sense of proportion. Prince Han does not need to worry too much."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Han did not flinch and continued: "Your Majesty is wise, but Zhu Di's behavior has seriously damaged the imperial court. If it is not stopped in time, it may cause serious trouble. I sincerely ask your Majesty to understand clearly and return the situation.
The court hall is clear and bright."
After hearing this, the emperor's face became more solemn. He slowly unfolded the dense fold and read it carefully. As the reading progressed, the emperor's face became more and more gloomy.
Zhu Han took the opportunity to speak: "Your Majesty, Zhu Di used the royal guards to control the court situation and suppress dissidents. If such behavior is not severely punished, how can he be convinced by the public? I sincerely ask your majesty to put the overall situation first and not to harm the country due to personal affairs."
The emperor put down the secret book and looked at Zhu Han sharply: "King Han, do you know that the consequences of these words are unpredictable?"
Zhu Han was not afraid and answered calmly: "I know that if I say this, I will definitely offend Zhu Di and his party members, but I also know that if I don't say it, I will be ashamed of His Majesty and the Ming Dynasty."
The emperor was silent for a moment, seeming to weigh the pros and cons. Finally, he spoke slowly: "I have borne in mind what King Han said. This matter is of great importance, and I need to consider it carefully. You can step back until I have made a decision.
You will be called to come.”
When Zhu Han heard this, he knew that the emperor was not completely on his side, but he also saw the emperor's hesitation and wavering. He bowed, bowed, and slowly exited the palace, with his next plan in mind.
Prince Zhu Biao was waiting anxiously outside the palace. When he saw Zhu Han coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Uncle Han, what did your father say?"
Zhu Han looked at the anxious face of Prince Zhu Biao, patted his shoulder gently, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has read the secret documents and has his own calculations in his mind. At this moment, we need to wait for the opportunity and at the same time strengthen our precautions.
Just in case Zhu Di makes another move."
Zhu Biao frowned and asked worriedly: "Uncle Hanwang, can we just sit back and watch Zhu Di do whatever he wants?"
Zhu Han shook his head, with a cold look in his eyes: "Your Highness, what Zhu Di has done has violated the power of heaven, how can we allow him to go unpunished? However, at this moment we need to win with wisdom and cannot act rashly."
While he was talking, a guard hurried over and reported nervously: "Your Highness King Han, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Zhu Di has led the royal guards to leave the besieged minister's residence, but before leaving, he left harsh words, saying that this matter will never happen.
Give it up and let it go."
Hearing this, Zhu Han raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "Zhu Di is quite brave. However, if he thinks he can scare us like this, he is totally wrong."
Zhu Biao clenched his fists, a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "Uncle Hanwang, we must not let him succeed. How should we deal with it next?"
Zhu Han pondered for a moment and said: "Your Highness, what we have to do next is to continue to collect evidence of Zhu Di's wrongdoings, to strengthen the unity of the people of the Qing Dynasty in the DPRK, and to prepare for Zhu Di's possible counterattack. At the same time, I
I will personally meet with several veterans to win their support."
Zhu Biao nodded, admiration flashing in his eyes: "Uncle Hanwang is far-sighted, and I admire Biao'er. However, Uncle Hanwang should also be more careful. Zhu Di is cunning and may be detrimental to you."
Zhu Han smiled slightly and patted Zhu Biao's shoulder: "Your Highness, don't worry, King Han will act with caution. Your Highness, on the other hand, you need to be more cautious and not get angry easily, so as not to fall into Zhu Di's trap."
After saying that, Zhu Han turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and turned back to Zhu Biao: "Your Highness, there is one more thing you need to pay attention to. Zhu Di has a deep foundation in the court, and it is inevitable that some people will be deceived by him. Your Highness needs to distinguish between right and wrong, and do not allow villains to take advantage of him.
Can be multiplied."
Zhu Biao nodded heavily, his eyes full of determination: "Uncle Han, don't worry, Biao'er has written it down. We must act carefully to prevent the villain from succeeding."
Zhu Han then left with peace of mind and went to the residences of several respected veterans to seek their support.
As night fell, deep in the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting alone on the dragon chair, playing with a jade seal in his hand and frowning. At this time, a eunuch walked in softly and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, King Han, wants to see you."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and signaled to the eunuch to declare his presence. Soon, Zhu Han entered the hall and after saluting, he said bluntly: "Your Majesty, I came here today to ask your Majesty to clarify my doubts."
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Han, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes: "Brother Han, if you have any doubts, it doesn't matter."
Zhu Han took a deep breath and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask, how do you feel about what Zhu Di did? Do you really want to let him do whatever he wants and ignore the Ming Dynasty?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his expression darkened, but he soon regained his composure: "Brother Han, what you said is wrong. How can I ignore the country? However, Zhu Di is my own son, how can I easily decide his life or death?"
Zhu Han knelt on the ground and said in a firm voice: "Your Majesty, family ties are important, but national laws cannot be abolished. What Zhu Di has done has endangered the imperial court. If he is not punished severely, how can he obey the public? I sincerely ask your Majesty to put the overall situation first and not let personal feelings go unnoticed.
Blindfolded.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly: "I am fully aware of what Brother Han said. This matter is of great importance, and I need to think twice before I act. Please step back, and I will let you know when I have made a decision."
Zhu Han knew in his heart that Zhu Yuanzhang had some concerns, but it was difficult to make a decision due to the relationship between father and son, so he stopped forcing him, bowed and bowed before exiting the hall.
Early the next morning, Zhu Han and Zhu Biao met again in the East Palace to discuss countermeasures. Zhu Biao looked sad, obviously still worried about what happened last night.
Seeing this, Zhu Han comforted him softly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has your own concerns. We just need to wait for the opportunity and at the same time strengthen our precautions to prevent unexpected events."
Zhu Biao nodded, but then asked worriedly: "Uncle Han Wang, what if my father still cares about the relationship between father and son and opens up to Zhu Di?"
Zhu Han pondered for a moment, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "If this is really the case, I can only write in my own name with all the ministers, requesting your majesty to punish Zhu Di severely and set the course of the dynasty. How can the country of the Ming Dynasty be misled by personal feelings?
?”
Zhu Biao finally couldn't help the worry in his heart and spoke again: "Uncle Han Wang, my father... If he really opens his eyes to Zhu Di because he cares about the relationship between father and son, then won't all our efforts these days be in vain?
In vain?" There was a tremor in his voice, obviously very uneasy about the possible results.
Zhu Han put down his tea cup, looked at Zhu Biao firmly, and said in a calm and powerful tone: "Your Highness, your heart is unpredictable, but Your Highness needs to know that the Ming Dynasty is not a country for one person, but a country for all people. Your Majesty will be wise in your life. You should know right from wrong and will not disregard the interests of the country for personal reasons."
When Zhu Biao heard this, his brows relaxed slightly, but then he frowned: "Uncle Han Wang's words are reasonable, but people's hearts are complicated. If my father is really deceived by Zhu Di, what should we do?"
Zhu Han stood up, walked to the window, looked at the morning light outside, and said slowly: "Your Highness, if that day comes, I, Zhu Han, am willing to use the head on my neck as a guarantee, defend the imperial court to the death, and never let Zhu Di and his ilk cause trouble. The government and the public. But before that, we need to be fully prepared to prevent any eventuality."
Zhu Biao also stood up and walked to Zhu Han's side, his eyes flashing with determination: "Uncle Han, Biao'er is willing to fight side by side with Uncle Wang. No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, Biao'er will never back down."
At this time, an attendant hurriedly came in and reported nervously: "His Royal Highness, King Han, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, someone from the palace has sent word that His Majesty has urgently summoned His Highness, King Han, to the palace for an audience. It seems that we have something important to discuss."
