In August, the eleventh year of Yongle.
The morning after late autumn has become slightly cooler.
The mottled walls of the Imperial Capital of Jinling did not shine in the sunlight, but instead exuded a ghostly and mysterious sheen.
The simple and thick walls of the imperial capital also bring a bit of charm to it.
At this moment, at the gate of the Imperial City, a dense crowd of people from the capital gathered here, and it was very lively and crowded.
Because, not long ago, when the Emperor personally led the Northern Expedition against the Tatars and defeated the Tatar Khan in Mongolia, he paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty. The emperor decreed that the Tatar Khan Arutai be the King of Hening.
Then the emperor led his army to march to Qinhu Mountain and carved a monument on the huge stone ‘The Hanhai is Tan, the Tianshan Mountain is E, sweep away the dust, and the desert will be clear forever.’
This is a great feat since the Han and Tang Dynasties, which is no less than that of Feng Langjuxu.
Today is the joy of the country as the emperor returns home triumphantly and the whole country celebrates.
Therefore, the entire capital was in a state of excitement, and the people spontaneously gathered here to praise Ming Dynasty, the mighty hero.
However, no one expected that at this moment, Tianjie City was filled with mourning. The emperor’s chariot was torn to pieces by powerful crossbows. Even the brave and capable Han King Zhu Gaoxu was hit by an arrow and fell off his horse.
The tips of those arrows glowed with a strange cold light, and the poison had obviously been tempered beforehand. As long as they were scratched, their lives would end up hanging by a thread.
‘The King of Han is assassinated, call the imperial doctor quickly!’
…
Qianqing Palace.
The prince and King Zhao hurriedly entered while arguing, and then knelt down to pay their respects.
‘Father, my son heard about the Tianjie assassination and came… to say hello.’
The prince spoke breathlessly with sweat on his face.
Unexpectedly, after Zhu Di heard this, he slowly stood up and stepped forward, smiling to himself and saying, ‘This time I personally went on the expedition, and the bloody battle lasted for a year, and I beat Arutai to the point where he was running away with his head in his arms.’
‘I didn’t expect that when I arrived at the door of my house after a great victory, something like this happened!’
The big fat man trembled and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look directly at his own father.
When Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui saw the old man angry, he obediently lowered his head.
After a pause, Zhu Di looked at the two sons and asked softly, ‘How is the second son’s injury？’
‘Dad, those assassins tempered the poison on the arrows. Fortunately, the imperial doctor treated him in time. He will be fine after a few days of rest.’
After hearing this, Zhu Di’s heart immediately returned to his stomach.
Then, he looked at Prince Zhu Gaochi with a livid face.
‘If the second brother hadn’t conducted the investigation in time and detected the movements of the rebels in advance, you wouldn’t have said hello when you came today, right？’
These meaningful words scared Big Fatty and he was at a loss.
‘I…Dad…I…’
Zhu Di glanced at him coldly, ‘There are strong enemies outside and traitors inside. How do you manage your country？!’
Tiehanhan hesitated and couldn’t speak, so he could only kneel on the ground without saying a word.
When Zhu Di saw his appearance, he was instantly angry.
‘King Zhao, take the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, as well as the Jinyi Guards under your command, to seal the city gates, search the whole city, and find out!’
‘When did these rebels arrive in the capital？ Who arranged the arrangements？ What are their intentions？ Who supported them？ Let me find out everything!’
King Zhao was startled, and then he happily accepted the order, ‘My son, I obey the order!’
…
Han Dynasty Palace.
There was a gloomy atmosphere.
There were a lot of people in the mansion, all looking at the burly figure with worried expressions on their faces.
Princess Wei of the Han Dynasty stepped forward tentatively, ‘My lord, you have just woken up. Drinking alcohol is harmful to your health.’
Zhu Gaoxu looked back at this gentle and beautiful plump woman, forced a smile and said, ‘You all go down and leave me alone.’
After hearing this, everyone did not dare to disobey their prince’s order and retreated on their own.
Zhu Gaoxu looked at the high-walled palace and felt a chill in his heart.
His name is indeed Zhu Gaoxu, but he is not Zhu Gaoxu.
A sudden accident brought him to the Ming Dynasty unexpectedly.
Just wear it, because after all, when you come to the Ming Empire, you can also see with your own eyes how magnificent the last feudal dynasty of Han men is, unparalleled in the world.
But why did he dress up as Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Han Dynasty？
The famous rebel prince, the barbecue prince, the earthen pot chicken…
Zhu Gaoxu!
When it comes to this dear friend, all the rebel professionals have to bow down.
The second son of Emperor Yongle, a brave general in the Jingnan Campaign, Emperor Hongxi’s rival, Emperor Xuande’s political achievement…
Disliked by Zhu Yuanzhang, coaxed by Zhu Di, and made into barbecue by Zhu Zhanji…
Oh my god!
Zhu Gaoxu, male, was first named the King of Gaoyang County. Later, he followed his father Zhu Di to fight in Jingnan. He made many military exploits and was brave and good at fighting.
After Zhu Di ascended the throne, he was named King of Han and established a vassal state in Yunnan. However, he stayed in Nanjing and refused to join the vassal state. He tried to seize the throne many times and even used private soldiers to plunder and use public utensils to conspire to seize the throne.
After Emperor Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji succeeded to the throne, Zhu Gaoxu rebelled, but surrendered after Emperor Xuande’s personal expedition and was deposed as a commoner. He was later burned alive in a copper vat and turned into a pile of barbecue. The disciples were also killed one after another.
Just because of Zhu Di’s classic saying, ‘The prince is often sick, you should encourage him’, Zhu Gaoxu had thoughts that he shouldn’t have, and his ambition spread like weeds, and was finally burned by his great nephew. Clean and tidy.
A dignified prince of the Ming Dynasty was finally cooked alive into a barbecue. Such an end was too miserable.
However, the deal was already done, and Zhu Gaoxu had to accept this cruel fact.
He became the King of Han Dynasty in Ming Dynasty, Zhu Gaoxu.
After waking up, Zhu Gaoxu was still hesitant whether he should rely on his foresight and foresight to try his best and rely on Zhu Di’s preference for him to take a look at the dragon chair.
However, when his head regained its clarity, Zhu Gaoxu extinguished this thought.
Now in the eleventh year of Yongle, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi has been established, and Zhu Di has even established the grandson Zhu Zhanji.
The eldest brother of the prince, who appears to be kind and kind, is actually a ruthless character who is both wise and foolish. His influence in the court has long been deeply rooted, and he is supported by many courtiers.
What’s more, Taizu used force to establish the country. The Ming Dynasty had not yet recovered from the wars in the late Yuan Dynasty. A battle of peace left the Ming Dynasty riddled with holes and fragmented.
The Ming Dynasty was suffering from wars, and Emperor Yongle continued to launch troops in the Northern Expedition all year round to prove himself. The entire Ming Dynasty was full of hatred and disgust for the war.
What the Ming Dynasty needs now is a sage and benevolent king who can innovate with the people, rather than a pioneering king who is determined to forge ahead.
And Prince Zhu Gaochi, the pot-bellied Tiehanhan, is such a perfect prince.
On the other hand, Zhu Gaoxu himself, look at the world’s comments about him vicious, perverse, lewd, cunning and sinister… Anyway, none of them sound good.
Including Zhu Di, the world’s impression of him is that of a brave, foolhardy, arrogant and domineering warrior Qiu Ba.
Even Zhu Di was very fond of him and even seriously considered making him his heir apparent.
But we can only conquer the world immediately, how can we rule the world immediately？
Zhu Gaoxu’s character flaws, coupled with his current reputation, are destined to fail him in that dragon chair!
Sighing again, Zhu Gaoxu couldn’t help but strengthen his inner thoughts.
If he continues to stare at the dragon chair, he may not be able to escape the fate of being made into a crock pot of chicken and barbecue.
At this moment, a young man with a dull expression came over and said respectfully, ‘Father, my mother and concubine are pregnant, so please don’t bother me anymore.’
Zhu Gaoxu looked at the child and felt increasingly miserable.
This is Zhu Zhanhe, the eldest son of the Han Dynasty, Zhu Gaoxu’s current cheap son.
‘Son, dad is feeling miserable!’
After a while, Zhu Zhanhe responded, ‘Well…’
Zhu Gaoxu ‘？？？’
