Chapter 256: Yongle's personal expedition

In November, the weather in Nanjing was humid and cold, and it took several days of continuous drizzle, making people complain.

Especially the ministers of the morning court set off in a sedan chair in the bitter cold wind early in the morning. The palace was empty and the wind made people unable to open their eyes. No matter how thick the clothes were, they could not block the cold air in the early morning.

Today, it is rare that Your Majesty issued a grace decree to change the morning court to the Wu Dynasty. The ministers were happy and could not help but talk in private: "Your Majesty does this seem to be a negligent policy. Once this example is started, will you change the Wu Dynasty to the evening court in the future, or even just don't even want the court meeting?"

Scholars are really more thoughtful than women, so these words naturally reach Zhu Di's ears. Zhu Di almost vomited three liters of blood, and squirted blood on these bastards who were cheap and acted like a good person.

Overall, it has been quite peaceful recently. Hao Fenglou, who caused trouble, left, and the news of good news in Annan has spread frequently, and the ministers have also calmed down. Under the eye of the Jinyiwei, although there are occasional complaints, everyone is still dedicated to doing things, and no one deliberately wants to cause trouble.

But today, an urgent report was sent to Zhiyuan Pavilion.

It is reported that someone sent this report to Hunan at night. When the report arrived, the person who sent the report was almost exhausted. After that, he rushed to the capital for another 800 miles.

In just three days and four nights, the capital received news.

At this time, Wenyuan Pavilion had already begun to look like a cabinet. Leadership of Xie Jin, Hu Guang, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong and others were on duty in the cabinet as Hanlin attendants. With more people, there would inevitably be some different opinions here. Fortunately, everyone was still restrained and there were no major disputes.

No matter what, Xie Jin was still a little uncomfortable after all, but now he is no longer in the mood to pay attention to these things.

After seeing the report, Xie Jin's face suddenly turned pale, and then suddenly rose up and said loudly: "Come here, inform me immediately. I will meet the emperor immediately, hurry up!"

Although it was just a few words of information, it was enough to make the rest of the pavilion look confused.

"Bachelor Xie, what happened?"

"The big thing, Annan is about to be finished!" Xie Jin's face turned pale. He no longer cared about discussing with these colleagues.

The memorial was handed over, and it took less than half a stick of incense. The palace began to summon several cabinet scholars and lecturers set off to meet in the warm room.

Zhu Di seemed very shocked. He threw the memorial on his desk, and his face was a little stiff.

This news was too difficult for him to accept. At this time, he couldn't speak and had to say to Xie Jin: "Xie Aiqing, you said."

Xie Jin coughed and said, "This report is an impeachment memorial. The person who impeached was Wu Teng, and the ones who impeached were many military generals from Annan, including deputy general Chen Xian, guerrilla general Wang Yong, and the people of Zhu Yu. The impeachment was to exchange tributes and sell weapons..."

Speaking of this, everyone was stunned. Everyone here was extremely smart. Everyone knew that the crime Wu Teng mentioned was so serious, especially the tribute involved. It was enough to wear a hat that deceived the emperor, which was to kill the clan.

Xie Jin paused for a moment and continued: "Wu Teng said in the memorial that Wang Yong and others seemed to have noticed it. Just a few days ago, the movement of troops in the pass seemed to be different. And I also heard that someone seemed to want to secretly transfer civil unrest."

It's more obvious if you want to cover up...

Many people have already shown signs of unbearableness. Obviously, the other party has the intention of jumping into the wall, which means Wu Teng will die. After all, the facts he exposed are too big. Since the other party has already noticed it, for these people who are impeached, there is no choice except jumping into the wall. But these people are still generals who lead troops, and the place they are in is like Annan.

Xie Jin took a deep breath and then said, "So I think this matter may have worsened to the extreme, because Lord Wu has sent the memorial. Once these people know that the matter is irreversible, then..." Xie Jin said word by word: "They have no choice except for rebellion."

Xie Jin sighed and said again: "Wu Teng is indeed jealous of evil, but he still did bad things. When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Moreover, at this critical moment, if these people suddenly raise an uproar, how many of the troops in each town are involved in this matter is still unclear, but there must be many. At that time, Annan was in chaos and was unprepared for the overall situation of the imperial court's conquest of Annan was probably completely over."

It's over... Everything is over. After nearly a year of preparation, countless elite soldiers and generals have raised nearly a year of weapons and food, and countless civilians who have recruited them, and now they have all done useless work.

Hu Guang couldn't help but say, "Why not immediately issue an order to appease Wang Yong and others. Even if you have to settle the accounts, you should settle the accounts later. You must not..."

Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong shook their heads together and said in unison: "It is absolutely impossible. Not to mention the failure to repair the sheep, it is too late. Even if it is still time, will they believe in the court? Lord Wu must be in danger. At this time, they have no way out."

Several bachelors were worriedly discussing the news from the south. The unanimous conclusions drawn by everyone were extremely bad. Even the most optimistic people understood at this moment that nothing could be saved.

Zhu Di sat still, his heart was already in chaos.

He is a strong person in his heart. Even in the most difficult times, he still has a strong heart. But the news he has received now made him unable to accept.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."

Zhu Di came to his senses and suddenly he seemed to have grown a lot older. He glanced at Jie Jin and said, "You have to discuss it again. I want to take a break, and I will talk about it later."

Zhu Di suddenly seemed to have become ten years old, and stood up staggeringly. A eunuch helped him and went to the nearby side hall for a nap.

Not long after, the news spread in the palace, and then the Fengjia arrived.

Empress Xu was cold and cold, and did not care about the rules and entered the side hall directly.

The old couple looked at each other, and both of them read a little panic from each other's eyes.

Queen Xu sat down, pursed her lips and said, "Your Majesty, you can say the right thing, how bad can it be? "

Zhu Di was silent for a moment before sighing: "Who leaked the news? Which damn slave? Alas..." He was too lazy to pursue it, and showed a little unbearable look. Finally, he said: "The worst result is that Wang Yong, who guarded Langshan Pass, will treason with other towns. To rebel, the long-term plan is to separatist the side, so he must attack Langshan County. The report he received the day before yesterday was that Sui'er, Hao Fenglou, and Ling'er were all there. The rebel generals must have threatened them, and he also kidnapped Prince Chen, so that the court can be afraid and win the hearts of the people of Annan..."

Queen Xu felt dizzy and almost fainted. She reluctantly calmed herself and said, "Then, Hao Fenglou, Suier and others can..."

Zhu Di shook his head weakly and said, "These are thousands of rebels, and there are countless rebels, not to mention that Lang San County did not know about rebellion in advance, so... I think they are in danger. By then, they will fall into the hands of the rebels. Not only that, even Zhang Fu and Mu Sheng are afraid that they will be finished. The incident happened suddenly... If Zhu Neng was still there, he might be able to clean up the situation, but unfortunately..."

Empress Xu's mind buzzed and her whole body froze. There were too many people she cared about there, so she ignored Annan and national affairs. What she cared about was her son, her adopted son, and her daughter-in-law and niece.

What Zhu Di said just now was like cutting off her hope, leaving her with no last hope.

Queen Xu's eyes were slightly swollen, and tears were spinning in her eyes.

Zhu Di had closed his eyes and couldn't bear to see Empress Xu's "womanly attitude".

The crying sound finally came out. Although the sound was trying its best to restrain it, it made Zhu Di feel even more uncomfortable than having a heart-breaking death.

Suddenly, Zhu Di suddenly stood up suddenly. He held his hands behind his back, showing murderous intent: "Come on, take care of the queen." He left a sentence and walked towards the warm pavilion with a long and tiger-like pace.

In fact, everyone did not continue to discuss the discussion in the warm room, because everyone understood that there was no need to discuss this matter, and it was simply a waste of time to turn things around. Why do we need to do this? So everyone stared at each other and no one said anything.

Zhu Di came in directly, and his eyes glanced at everyone, and finally said, "Master Xie, I will personally enlist in Annan!"

“…”

Everyone was completely stunned.

Xie Jin was the first to react and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Di waved his hand and said coldly: "Don't persuade me, do as I want, and draw an order immediately. I will personally conquer Annan and let the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi supervise the government. You can do other things yourself."

This is how Zhu Di's temperament is, and once he makes up his mind, there is no room for negotiation. He did not personally fight before because in Zhu Di's eyes, Annan was simply not worth mentioning, but now, Zhu Di is already furious and plans to set off.

Xie Jin hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, if you want to fight in person, you will inevitably have to dispatch..."

Zhu Di said coldly: "There is no need to dispatch or dispatch troops. I only need three thousand elite cavalry to go straight south. You... don't need to persuade me. I have made up my mind and immediately make a decision. I will order the Governor's Office of the Five Army to prepare and set off immediately. You can retreat and get ready."

Everyone was stunned. Although many people had experienced the strange Taizu Dynasty, the current emperor seemed to be no different from the strange Taizu.

Anyone could feel the solemn aura that was emitting from Zhu Di's body. Finally, everyone sighed in their hearts and had to say, "I obey the order!"
