Zhu Gaoxu has not even gone to Xuanwu Gate recently. In the morning, he left the Imperial Concubine Palace and went straight to the Imperial Gate to meet the ministers.
Then he took the eunuch Hou Xian and went to the west Rouyi Hall; Rouyi Hall was located to the north of Wuying Hall.
The former Queen of Annan, Chen and her son Chen Zhengyuan lived in Rouyi Hall.Not long ago, they followed the family of the Han Palace to Beijing, and were settled in the imperial palace and temporarily lived here.
The Rouyi Hall was not in the harem area. Originally, Emperor Taizu often lived here, reading and chatting with the old brothers.But later emperors rarely stayed here.
Emperor, have I sent someone to inform Chen to welcome him?The square-faced eunuch Hou Xian said beside the sedan chair.
Zhu Gaoxu said: No, I will meet the second envoy of Jiaozhi Province first.
Hou Xian hurriedly said: I will make arrangements immediately.
Zhu Gaoxu's external strategy is completely different from Emperor Taizong.
The relationship between the imperial court and the Mongolian tribes deteriorated, but after Zhu Gaoxu ascended the throne, he had no intention of sending envoys to Mongolia (he saved him from being killed again and was humiliated by himself); at this time, the rebels from Jiaozhi Province sent envoys over, and Zhu Gaoxu did not formally receive them, but chose this place where Taizu Yàn lived to meet.
When he arrived at Rouyi Hall, he took a seat on the throne above the main hall. This chair seemed to have been sat by Taizu.
Zhu Gaoxu imagined the situation where the Emperor Zu was sitting here to read a book, and also found a book, and was very relaxed to read the book while waiting for the person to be summoned.
But he didn't turn a page of the book in his hand for a long time, and he didn't even know what kind of book this book was.
Perhaps this is just a way of thinking, which is very consistent with the decoration of calligraphy and paintings hanging on all sides of the palace.
After a long time, a man and a woman walked into the hall room.
The second envoy of Jiaozhi, the two men, were still the original two, and Zhu Gaoxu had seen them in Yunnan.
The chief envoy was a female Taoist priest named Chen Xianzhen; the deputy envoy was a military general named Ruan Jingyi.
I will pay homage to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.The two of them saluted.
They did not kneel down, and according to the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and Jiaozhi Province, this was inappropriate.
But there were no ministers here, so Zhu Gaoxu didn't want to worry about it; this was one of the reasons why he was unwilling to meet the envoy on formal occasions.
The Ming Dynasty had its own etiquette, and the etiquette of both parties expressed their relationship and attitude; if they were in the hall, they would be in trouble because of etiquette, would there be room for negotiation?
Zhu Gaoxu looked sideways, facing the middle of the palace with his side face. He said without looking back: Originally, I asked Chen Jikuo to make up for his crimes, but he was unwilling to support the "destroy the criminal army"; now that I have become the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he sent you again.Chen Jikuo has no achievements in me and even wrote a letter to want to be named king. How could it be?
Chen Xianzhen said: The king (Chen Jikuo) and his ministers also regret this matter.
Ruan Jing, who was tanned, said: My country's king is a royal family in Annan Kingdom. He is now preparing tribute to the capital. He only wants to be crowned by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, so he will pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty!I hope the emperor will be grateful.
Zhu Gaoxu said: Chen Zhengyuan, the son of the former king who was murdered by Hu, was in the capital. He was more legal in the rituals than Chen Jikuo.
Ruan Jingyi said: I am afraid that the civil and military officials of Annan will not recognize this person.
Be respectful!Zhu Gaoxu threw the book in his hand on the table and said coldly, since you want to be enthroned and recognized by the Ming Dynasty in the court, you must abide by the universal morality of our dynasty!The legitimate son of the king cannot inherit the throne. Is there still morality and order in the world?
Ruan Jingyi stood there and said: The situation is like this, and sometimes I am afraid that I cannot only pay attention to etiquette and morality...
Zhu Gaoxu said immediately without waiting for his words: Etiquette and morality are not particular, so why do you want to fight the banner of the Chen royal family?Le Li, who occupied Ng An City (Nei An Province), Blue Mountain and other places, has his own troops and wants to be a king. Who should I enthrone?
Chen Xian was really a Taoist priest, but also a woman. She should be gentler: The emperor should calm down. I heard that the Han Dynasty was divided into the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty; the candidate for the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty was not just about etiquette and law.The Chen family of Annan Kingdom was once destroyed by the rebellious Hu family, and now the royal family revived. Those who have high moral character should be the king.
The one who helped the Chen family the most was the Ming Dynasty; otherwise, the surname of Hu would have been the one in Jiaozhi area now!Zhu Gaoxu said.
He paused and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: However, according to Deputy Envoy Ruan, we can put aside etiquette and morality first, and it is okay to talk about reality.
Chen Xianzhen said: Please tell me.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhu Gaoxu wouldn't have to meet the envoy himself.
He first explained lightly: I learned from the memorials of Huang Zhong, the general stationed in Jiaozhi Province, and the civil and military officials that the situation in Jiaozhi area at this time seemed to be quite chaotic.In addition to the Ming garrison in Dongguan City (Shenglong, Hanoi), Jiaozhi Province generally has three larger forces.Chen Jikuo, Chen 𬱟, Li Li.
These people have grudges and suspicions, but because they believe that the Ming army has a great threat, they have formed a different alliance and want to fight against the Ming army together.
First, Chen𬱟 saw that the Chen Hu regime was destroyed and he was the first to be emperor; but he was eager to attack Dongguan, and had a grudge against his generals, and even killed your Ruan Jingyi's brother.
Before Chen �’s storm could be caused, a few larger groups of people under his command turned into a rebellion!
Ruan Jingyi and others found a Chen Jikuo in private. The generals formed an alliance to plot against Chen𬱟 and arrested him.
Then Chen Jikuo was supported to proclaim himself emperor. Chen Jikuo attacked the prefectures and counties established by our dynasty "Jiaozhi Administrator" everywhere, so he was so famous that he overshadowed Chen𬱟.
So many Ming officials did not know Chen, but only Chen Jikuo.
In fact, Chen Jikuo's power is not as good as Chen 𬱟, he is just a puppet supported by the generals.
There were also some supporters among the generals who supported Chen. Because the Ming army had too great threats and in order not to weaken their strength, they let Chen go. The two sides reached a compromise and gave Chen some troops, occupying the southern part of Jiaozhi Province, and were called the "Supreme Emperor".
The last powerful man who rose up in the Blue Mountains was Lili, who occupied Lanshan, Nye'an and other places with the vigor and forests.Li Li was smarter. He didn't call himself emperor, but he even asked Chen Ji to be the king. He didn't make a fuss and just waited for you to deal with the Ming Dynasty's official army.In name, these three forces have formed an alliance and have a superior and subordinate relationship.But they cannot control each other and are relatively independent forces.is that so?
When Zhu Gaoxu said this, he said: If the Ming Dynasty official army really withdrew from Jiaozhi Province, can these three forces still be safe?
Ruan Jingyi worshipped: The emperor is wise and knows very well.
Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and sneered: But the Ming Dynasty's official army will not withdraw from Jiaozhi Province!The tyranny of the Hu family is the merit of our dynasty. Of course, we must fulfill our original intention and take back the throne for the son of the former king!It is very important that all countries in the world abide by universal morality.
Ruan Jingyi hurriedly asked: The emperor's intention is to no longer occupy Annan Kingdom as a province?
Zhu Gaoxu said: Emperor Taizong's original intention was to seek justice for the Chen family; however, after the war, the Chen family was not found for a while, and the ministers and the military and civilians of Jiaozhi entered Beijing to petition, so Emperor Taizong temporarily placed the land of Jiaozhi into the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty.Now that I have found Chen Zhengyuan, I will rebuild Annan Kingdom and return the Chen family.
Zhu Gaoxu paused for a moment and said: I have a way.Chen Jikuo is just a puppet who is supported to the top. If you can support Chen Jikuo, why not support Chen Zhengyuan?After Chen Jikuo and Chen �ji left the imperial title, they still enjoyed wealth and honor for the royal family; you are still the generals of Annan Kingdom.Isn’t it beautiful for everyone to support Chen Zhengyuan, destroy the rebel Li Li, and enjoy a peaceful and prosperous era together?
Ruan Jingyi and Chen Xianzhen looked at each other, and Ruan Jingyi looked at her and shook her head slightly.
When Zhu Gaoxu saw this subtle action, he knew Ruan Jingyi’s thoughts: although both candidates were puppets, Chen Jikuo was a puppet of the Annan people and Chen Zhengyuan was a puppet of the Ming Dynasty!
Ruan Jingyi said: I have entered the capital and asked the emperor to enthrone the title. I may not be able to make the decision.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said: You bring my intention back and ask everyone to think more.Don’t be lucky. It is not difficult for the Ming Dynasty’s official army to have a “battle of the Annan Kingdom”.By then, it would be impossible to settle for the second best to enjoy wealth and glory.
Ruan Jingyi said: I should take the emperor's intention back for discussion.
Zhu Gaoxu sighed, waved his hand gently, and said thoughtfully: Maybe you should sit down and talk, and you will never avoid blood flowing into a river first, otherwise how can you be willing?
I and others surrendered.Ruan Jingyi and the other two bowed and said.
Zhu Gaoxu suddenly said: Please stay, I will be alone with you.
Chen Xianzhen joined his fist and said, "I obey the order."
Zhu Gaoxu stood up and walked towards the door behind.Behind him, the voice of the eunuch Hou Xian came: I am asking for help.
Behind the main hall, there is a smaller palace called the Tui Si Hall.There are zithers and other objects inside, which are simple and simple, which is different from the grandeur of the main hall.
Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand when Chen Xianzhen came in.The eunuch Hou Xian bowed and retreated, covering the hall gate.
Chen Xianzhen turned her head and glanced, then quietly noticed Zhu Gaoxu's expression and behavior.
Zhu Gaoxu knew very well that the battle to conquer Annan during the Taizong period did play a great role; therefore, the newly emerging forces in the Jiaozhi area were all very persistent in the recognition and enthronement of the Ming Dynasty, and sent envoys to be recognized by the Ming court.
He looked up and down at Chen Xian's appearance and figure without any hesitation, and finally said: Chen Jikuo and the people around him think I like nuns and girls?
Chen Xianzhen bent her knees and said: I am indeed a Taoist priest and a royal family, and there is no falsehood.
Zhu Gaoxu said: Chen Jikuo expressed the meaning of peace, and I am also sincere. How can I repeatedly reject Chen Jikuo's kindness?
Chen Xian's cheeks were really a little red.
Zhu Gaoxu's eyes were still on her body. Although she was wearing a robe, the woman's lines were still very obvious.
Chen Xianzhen was watched unscrupulously, and she looked embarrassed and embarrassed, but her hand slowly placed on her belt.
Then he took the eunuch Hou Xian and went to the west Rouyi Hall; Rouyi Hall was located to the north of Wuying Hall.
The former Queen of Annan, Chen and her son Chen Zhengyuan lived in Rouyi Hall.Not long ago, they followed the family of the Han Palace to Beijing, and were settled in the imperial palace and temporarily lived here.
