went to Zhu Di's northern tour, and the crown prince Zhu Gaochi supervised the country. Chen Ying also wrote that Li Zhen, the head of the Ministry of War, accepted bribes and asked him to go to prison. Later, Li Zhen's wife beat the drum and shouted grievances. The crown prince ordered the six ministers to be tried, and Li Zhen was tortured to death, and did not admit the crime before his death. After the investigation, it was found that there was no such thing, and the criminal department played to Geng Tong and others in the incident that Chen Ying killed innocent people indiscriminately and asked for punishment. Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi said, "Chen Ying is a minister, and he was just deceived by his subordinates. "At that time the order was no longer talked about. Zhu Gaochi said to Chen Ying: "Your intentions are too mean, you don't know the form of government, it's not what a minister should do." At that time, although the prince hated Chen Ying, the emperor Zhu Di still favored him. After a long time, Zhu Di also disliked it. In the ninth year of Yongle, Chen Ying died of sin, and the world shouted for it. The three major figures who supported Zhu Gaoxi back then have long since died, and the illness lives up to the climate of the year, that is, the family, and it has long since declined, Li Jun really can't understand who the big man is in the capital? “

Li Jun secretly pondered in his heart, but there was a worried look on his face, and said: "The King of Han is wise and powerful, but not everyone can sit on the dragon chair in the imperial court, besides, even if the prince has this ability, this is a major event of the royal family, how can you and I outsiders be allowed to interfere, how did Fang Xiaoru die back then, Lord Wang should know, right?" ”

Wang Bin was stunned for a moment, Fang Xiaoru's extermination of the Ten Ancestors, although it happened in the fourth year of Emperor Jianwen, more than 20 years have passed now, but Zhu Di's killing of Fang Xiaoru was a sensation, that is, there are still people talking about it, in the present, after the saint ascended the throne as the emperor, the other party's filial piety family has been rehabilitated, making this slowly forgotten in the minds of the Ming Dynasty officials The No. 1 person, recalling the memory of the year, Wang Bin as an inspector of the imperial history, has the responsibility of supervising the people's customs, in the past, Fang Xiaoru punished the ten clans, how can I not know? He bowed his head and said: "I know, Emperor Chengzu wanted Fang Xiaoru to draft an edict on the throne, and Fang Xiaoru scolded Chengzu for suffering this catastrophe?" ”

Li Jun shook his head and said, "Lord Wang doesn't know much, my Emperor Chengzu is eloquent and strategic, and he can be called a generation of heroes, how can he kill the ten clans of the Fang family because Fang Xiaoru did not write an edict on the throne?" ”

For the grievances of Zhu Di killing Fang Xiaoru's ten clans, although Wang Bin has heard of it, but after all, he has not seen it with his own eyes, and in the Yongle Dynasty, Fang Xiaoru is taboo, no one dares to mention it, for the events of that year, only people know back then, and he is a later person who knows limitedly, at this time, listening to Li Jun's mysteriousness, he can't help but be a little curious. After a while, he said, "Please tell me?" ”

Li Jun's eyes flashed, and he said: "Fang Xiaoru back then, he shouldn't have asked about the royal family, this is the reason why he was killed by the Ten Clans?" Can Lord Wang understand? “

Wang Bin was a little dazed, he had heard some of the things back then, when Zhu Di asked Fang Xiaoru to write an edict, Fang Xiaoru cried, Zhu Di walked down the couch to comfort him and said: "Sir, don't bring trouble on yourself, my plan is just to imitate the way Zhou Gong assisted the king." Fang Xiaoru asked, "Where is King Zhou Cheng?" Zhu Di replied: "He died by self-immolation." Fang Xiaoru asked again: "Why don't you become the son of the king?" Zhu Di said: "The country depends on the adult king. Fang Xiaoru said: "Why don't you become the king's younger brother?" Zhu Di replied: "This is our Zhu family's business." He turned around and motioned to the attendants on the left and right to give Fang Xiaoru a pen and paper, and said, "The edict to the world has to be drafted by you, sir." Fang Xiaoru threw the pen to the ground, crying and scolding: "Death is death, I must not draft the edict." Zhu Di was angry and ordered Fang Xiaoru's car to be split in the market, and then punished Fang Xiaoru's ten clans. In the early years, Wang Bin always thought that the reason why Fang Xiaoru was killed by Zhu Di was that he was too upright and did not know the current affairs, so he ended up in such a tragic end. "This is Chiluoluo's interference in the royal family, and Zhu Di will not spare him.

Wang Bin's face changed several times, but now his identity is suspected of interfering in royal affairs, although the King of Han is wise and martial, but the rebellion, for thousands of years, only one King Yan has achieved great things, no one can guarantee that the Zhu family's country is not the King of Han to sit, once not, his fate is not better there?

Thinking of this, he was a little scared, and looked at what Li Jun wanted to say, but he trembled a few times and didn't make a sound.

Li Jun saw that the heat was about the same, and secretly brewed in his heart, and said: "Lord Wang doesn't have to worry too much, the king of Han is wise and martial, and there are many military generals in the court, if there are big people in the court to help, it is absolutely impossible to take the dragon chair?" It's just that who is this big man, can Lord Wang know? ”

"This"..."

Wang Bin hesitated for a moment, glanced at Li Jun curiously, and said with a smile: "Lord Li's words are not easy for the lower officials to answer, the lower officials are just inspecting the imperial history, don't you know what big names in the DPRK and China?" ”

Li Jun scolded a few times and said with a smile: "What did Lord Wang say, the King of Han has always trusted Lord Wang very much, such a major matter related to your net worth and life, how can I not tell you, how can this big man in the court be sacred, how can Lord Wang not know, Lord Wang doesn't want to sue Li, Li can understand, but please don't fool Li with not knowing, I, Li Jun is not stupid?" ”

Wang Bin was a little hesitant before, but at this time he looked at Li Jun and laughed: "Why should my lord be angry, King Han trusts Wang, Wang does not deny it, but only King Han knows who this big man in the court is, and the lower officials really don't know, I think it should be a person who can speak in the court, otherwise King Han would not blame this person for such a big thing?" “

Li Jun originally wanted to extract this person's name from his mouth, but now looking at his appearance, he really didn't know who this person was, and his heart became more and more confused.

Wang Bin glanced at him and said, "King Han attaches great importance to Lord Li, if Lord Li goes to inquire in person, presumably King Han will definitely inform Lord Li, it is better to ——? ”

"It's better for adults to ask, firstly, let the lower officials know and know, and secondly, this matter is important, if this person really has the ability to turn things around, the lower officials are not afraid to participate in this royal matter, and the king of Han will ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, and we will be from the dragon's work, and the king will be just around the corner?"

Li Jun smiled secretly and said, "How can the prince talk to me about such a big thing?" ”

Wang Bin blinked and said: "Lord Li doesn't know, since the prince lost to Yang Shiqi's group of literati in the Yongle period for the crown prince, he now highly respects the literati and scholars, Lord Li is famous, and it is the imperial history, the prince attaches great importance to the adult, if Lord Li takes refuge in the prince——? Speaking of this, he glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "According to Lord Li's talent, aren't you afraid that you will not be reused by the prince, once you are trusted by the prince, ask the prince about the big man in the court, according to the prince's temperament, how can you not tell Lord Sù?" Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and continued: "If the prince informs the lord, the lord will know whether the prince can be in heaven, if that person really has the ability to reach the sky, and helped the prince seize the dragon chair, the lord and the lower officials——? “

"Oh——?"

Li Jun glanced at Wang Bin with some surprise, his face changed for a while, and said: "What Lord Wang said is extremely true, this matter is very important, not child's play, if the prince can sit on the dragon chair in front of him, you and I can be regarded as having a way out?" ”

Wang Bin was overjoyed and said: "What Lord Li said is very true, the lower officials are exactly what they think, if this big man in the court really has the ability to reach the sky, I am also relieved?" ”

Li Jun saw that he really didn't know who the big man in the court was, and he knew that if he asked again, he was afraid that he would arouse the other party's suspicions, so he simply nodded and said: "What Lord Wang said is that we outsiders are involved in the royal affairs, and if we can't kill the nine clans, it's better to be cautious, if the big man in the court is really powerful, you and I will be loyal again?" ”

Wang Bin frowned and said: "That's what I said, but at this time, if you are not loyal to the King of Han, it is difficult to gain the trust of the King of Han, you look at those generals, who don't want to squeeze out our literati, I am afraid, you and I hesitate, and were preempted by those hateful generals, and at that time the King of Han seized the country and was suppressed to death by them?" “

Li Jun said: "Fight the world immediately, you may not be able to govern the world immediately, Lord Wang, please rest assured, if the prince can really sit on the dragon chair, this world is still our literati, why should Lord Wang worry?" “

Wang Bin thought about it, but this is also the truth, since ancient times, which one is not a military general, not to mention that Wei Qing, Huo Quai, Li Jing, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun are not all military generals, when it comes to governing the world, literati are much more useful than military generals? “

"Thank you for the mention, my lord's words, do you remember the humble duty?" Wang Bin said respectfully.

Li Jun waved his hand and said, "Lord Wang is polite, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, you don't have to be polite?" “

The two talked for a while, and Li Jun probably knew the current situation, and now the king of Han and Shandong commanded Jin Rong and others to respond to Jinan. He also scattered the bows and banners, ordered the guards to be determined, and took all the cattle and horses in the counties and counties. And set up the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies: Commander Wang Bin led the front army, Wei Da led the left army, Qianhu Sheng Jian led the right army, and Zhizhou Zhu Xuan led the rear army. The sons Zhu Zhanyi, Zhu Zhanyu, Zhu Zhanyu, and Zhu Zhanqi each supervised an army. Zhu Gaoxu led the Chinese army, and the son Zhu Zhanyuan lived in the garrison. Commanding Wei Xian and Wei Xing, Wang Yu and Li Zhi of Qianhu led the four sentinels. The deployment has been decided, and Wang Bin, Zhu Xuan and other marshals, governors and other officials have been pretended, just after contacting the big man in the imperial court, once the court situation changes, can the inside and outside be combined? Capture Jinan, and then wave your troops north to capture the city of Beijing? “

Li Jun was secretly surprised by the boldness of the King of Han in his heart, glanced at Wei Da and the others who were talking eloquently on the side, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, and said in his heart: "These generals eat the king's fortune, but they are not loyal to the king, they really deserve to be killed, but the current situation is very unfavorable to the imperial court, that is, the big people who are secretly with the imperial court have not yet surfaced, once the situation changes——?
