After Xu Huizu left, Qi Tai, Minister of War, said: The plan of Duke of Wei is to remove the firewood from the bottom of a pot, which is very cruel.As long as they imprison the princes and the princes, they are limited to a small area and cut off the inside and outside, even if they try their best, they will have no choice but to fly!
In this way, the emperor seized the initiative and everything was in his palm.
In the past, due to the lack of explanation, the prince could not be imprisoned easily.Now the Gaoyang County Prince was killed first, and his crime was serious. On this grounds, it was a natural thing to do, and he wanted to sleep.
After Qi Tai finished speaking, he took another breath, looking a little puzzled. However, the Duke of Wei and King Yàn made such a ruthless plan, which surprised me very much.
At this moment, Huang Zicheng said quietly: Will the Wei Guogui use a bitter plan to test it?
Qi Tai looked at him in confusion: How do you say this?
Huang Zicheng talked freely: In the current situation, Wang Ding is already a little suspicious, but he cannot be sure of it.If you follow the Duke of Wei's plan and move Prince Yàn, wouldn't it be a warning to the court and confirm the court's intention to deal with Prince Yàn?The sister of Duke of Wei is the first wife of King Yàn...
When Emperor Zhu Yunwen heard this, he nodded his head and said, "There is some truth and we must observe it."
Qi Tai immediately said: I have objections.The Duke of Wei was the eldest son of the Xu family. He inherited the title and shining the family, relying on the grace of the emperor.If he disregards his family's prosperity and goes against the court, why bother?
Zhu Yunwen, who was in power, pondered endlessly after hearing this.
Qi Tai immediately saw some signs.
He thought to himself that the emperor accepted advice and was able to obey other people's advice; he and Huang Zicheng were both ministers who strongly advocated the reduction of the vassal states. Although their words worked, Huang Zicheng was more trustworthy than that.
At that time, Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng both advocated the reduction of the vassals. In terms of specific strategies, Qi Tai advocated capturing the king first to capture the thief, and suddenly attacked the most powerful king Yàn; while Huang Zicheng advocated cutting the wings first and winning public opinion, starting with the kings such as Zhou, Qi, Xiang, and Dai who had little strength and little contribution.
In the end, the emperor adopted Huang Zicheng's proposal.
Qi Tai's opinion on Huang Zicheng is that he has a little selfishness, good at power and wise men.
After thinking about it, Qi Tai changed his tone and said: The emperor has issued an order to arrest Du and Wang, and he should not change it lightly.I made suggestions and then blamed the Gaoyang County Prince for violating the law, and ordered him to be banned from his feet and to think about his mistakes in the closed door.
Huang Zicheng immediately said: I will discuss it.
Zhu Yunwen thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Biyier and others are asking for it."
...At dusk that day, the prince's mansion suddenly became noisy, mixed with the sound of the footsteps of armored soldiers, and the neat and rhythmic sound made the atmosphere more tense.
Zhu Gaoxu and Gao Sui helped the unsteady prince to the gate of the courtyard, watching the gates of many soldiers and generals blocked the doors and were in a mess. The prince shouted: What are you doing?
A general in the Jinyiwei dress, wearing gorgeous clothes, came over, bowed and said with a fist: Gaoyang County Prince beat the imperial court to death in the street, and many impeached people in the court.The emperor issued an order that the Gaoyang County Prince and others will be closed to think about their mistakes, not leaving the mansion, and not being allowed to interact with outsiders without authorization.
Gao Sui shouted angrily: We are royal families, not prisoners!
The general of the Jinyiwei said: Don’t blame me, Prince, the last general is just following the order.If you have something to say, it is OK to write a letter, and you will send it to the palace from the end.
snort!The prince made an accent from his nose to show his dissatisfaction, turned around and wanted to leave.
Zhu Gaoxu felt stuffy in his chest, but he didn't say anything... Now, the Jinyiwei ordered the sage that you could shout out and ignore!
The three of them returned to the inner house in depressed mood. The prince glanced at Zhu Gaoxu: Now it’s OK!
Gao Sui hurriedly asked: My second brother was confident yesterday. Have you figured out a solution?
Zhu Gaoxu said helplessly: The Jinyiwei and the officers and soldiers took the imperial edict and surrounded him. We squatted in this small place. What can we do now?
This... Gao Sui's face looked very ugly and full of complaints.
The prince raised his arm and said: Forget it, things have reached this point. We brothers cannot fight each other in internal conflicts, but should work together to overcome difficulties.The emperor wants to imprison us, and he can always find a reason, and he cannot blame his second brother too much.
There must be some way.Gao Shui looked anxious.
The prince said: Don’t be impatient, many things are like this. Who is smarter than who can do it?Things in the world are unpredictable, but don’t people often take one step at a time?
He pondered for a moment and said again, what my second brother said yesterday still makes some sense.If someone in the court wanted to take our brothers as hostages and threaten his father, how could he have received two imperial edicts within half a day?
Can we figure out these things out, but can people outside not understand them?Don't worry, you two, wait and see.
Waiting is the most depressing.The depressed days have arrived, and I waited for more than half a month, but I still couldn’t see any end.The prince's mansion was completely airtight, and everyone was isolated from the world.
……
One night, Huang Zicheng got home.The lady came into the room and served him with her own hands to change out of her official uniform and hat. She mentioned in a casual tone: Did the two imperial prisoners catch them?
Huang Zicheng was suddenly a little unhappy.
The lady hurriedly said: When people from my hometown come to ask, I had to ask my husband.
Huang Zicheng said earnestly: The woman’s opinion is that someone is willing to pay for her life, and it is not them who are taking action!
The wife said carefully: Prince Gaoyang is a royal family. Isn’t this not to let him pay his life?
Huang Zicheng said: Zhu Gaoxu lost so much now, which is much worse than the death of two young soldiers!The people of the Xu family no longer need to hold on. What else should they do if they live a life, and the sons of the King of Yàn are imprisoned?
The lady had to nod and agreed, not daring to confront her.
Huang Zicheng kicked off the boots on his feet, and as he thought about it, he showed a little complacent look. Not long ago, King Yàn pretended to be sick in the mansion to save his three sons.However, we also have a detailed work in Peking, and secretly reported the incident of King Yàn's pretending to be sick back to Beijing, which finally allowed the emperor to see through King Yàn's trick.
The lady hurriedly said: Fortunately, I have seen through it, otherwise the emperor would be really hard to refuse.It is nothing wrong to ask the father to be filial to the bedside when the son is filial.
Of course.Huang Zicheng smiled and said, "I probably said the same thing when I sent Deng Yong to the court that day."But it was useless. Prince Gaoyang and others were still locked in the prince's mansion. A large number of people watched it, and it was so hard to fly!
Huang Zicheng was in a good mood tonight and talked a little more. These vassal royal families usually violated the law and committed crimes.How much better are people like Gaoyang County Princess than the Kings of Zhou, Qi, Xiang and Dai who were abolished as commoners?I'm waiting to see what tricks he can do!
In this way, the emperor seized the initiative and everything was in his palm.
In the past, due to the lack of explanation, the prince could not be imprisoned easily.Now the Gaoyang County Prince was killed first, and his crime was serious. On this grounds, it was a natural thing to do, and he wanted to sleep.
