Chapter 1008: King Ding
A Jinyiwei organization that is above the law is so rampant. They galloped away from the city gate like a gust of wind.
The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate could only watch and see who was the Jinyiwei?
The capital was not far from Wuqing County. Along the way, Qin Maosheng and his team galloped without any delay.
Because they have experienced too many such things, especially when the Jinyiwei handled major cases, if there was no evidence, or if there was no direct instructing the emperor to arrest people and need evidence.
Those who are worthy of the case that the Jinyiwei will handle are naturally all powerful people who are either rich or noble. Among them, powerful guys such as royal relatives and nobles often get news in advance.
For example, the Jinyiwei wanted to investigate a person and wanted to learn from the person's words about the crimes of the royal relatives and nobles. Sometimes, before the Jinyiwei could take action, the person had an inexplicable accident.
There must be no accidents in the two living occupants left by Wuqing County. If these two people die and are already alarmed at this time, it is very likely that this case of trafficking women will eventually become a unsolved case.
Along the way, Qin Maosheng didn't dare to rest. They rushed day and night to arrive in Wuqing County as soon as possible. As long as the suspect was detained, it would be much easier.
The suspect was relatively safe when he got to the hands of the Jinyiwei. But there was nothing absolute, and no one could guarantee that there would be no enemy's detailed work in the Jinyiwei.
Along the way, the Jinyiwei was galloping on the official road. Suddenly, the group of people appeared in front aroused Qin Maosheng's alertness. These people were dressed in strange clothes, unlike people from the capital.
"Wow~!" Qin Maosheng stopped the war horse, and his subordinates also stopped one after another.
The war horse neighed a long time, and its front hooves finally stopped gradually. Then, Qin Maosheng and his group surrounded the dozen people in front of him.
Obviously, these people were not good at slaughter. When they saw the Jinyiwei's embroidered spring sword and flying fish suit, they did not show any timidity. Instead, a middle-aged man in the lead showed a vague look of provocation.
In this wilderness, these people were not afraid of the Jinyiwei. Many people's hands had even secretly touched the hilt of the knife.
The Jinyiwei also realized that the group of people in front of him were not good people either. So the Jinyiwei also held the weapons. One of the Qiangu Xia Dechao stepped forward and asked, "Stop, what are you doing!"
Unlike other people who would take the initiative to dodge when they saw the Jinyiwei, these people were not afraid. After asking this question, the other party finally gave a middle-aged man holding his sword and bowed: "We are the ones of Prince Ding."
When the Jinyiwei heard this, the Jinyiwei was stunned. Even the commander Qin Maosheng was shocked.
Who is King Ding? He is Zhu Cixuan's brother Zhu Cijiong. Emperor Chongzhen did not have only Zhu Cixuan, but had several children.
Among them, Zhu Cijiong, the third son of Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian, and his mother, Empress Xiaojielie Zhou, was named King Ding in the 16th year of Chongzhen. In other words, Zhu Cijiong was the brother of the same mother as Zhu Ciliang.
Zhu Cijiong was born on August 15, the fifth year of Chongzhen. On September 18, the 14th year of Chongzhen, he was named King Ding. Two years later, he performed the crown ceremony and went out to teach in the first month of the 15th year of Chongzhen. He and his younger brother Zhu Cijiu, "the eyebrows were as bright as heavenly people, the calligraphy was recited and the name was Duankai. After the lecture, he called: 'Sir every time he ate tea!'' pronunciation was like jade."
In March of the 17th year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng entered the capital, and King Ding Zhu Cijiong was captured and was granted the title of Duke Ding'an, but Zhu Cijiong was indestructible.
When King Ding Zhu Cijiong came out of the house, he was responsible for the lecture on the famous scholar Fang Yizhi, and Liu Minghan, the son of Liu Yuanzhen, one of the eight gentlemen in Donglin. Fang Yizhi's expression was solemn and his voice was bright. King Ding was a little impatient and urgently called Liu Minghan to come and talk on the lecture.
The eunuch hurriedly stopped him and said, "It's not up to you, it's up to you, the emperor's decision." Then he did things according to the rules that had been set.
King Ding liked Mr. Liu very much. Mr. Fang introduced the book that he should recite that day. King Ding then closed the book and memorized it in one breath. King Ding said: "Mr. Fang can come out first, and I will imitate the book with Mr. Liu."
When Mr. Fang went out, King Ding felt relieved and was relaxed and relaxed in practicing calligraphy. Later, when King Ding met Emperor Chongzhen, he asked to set three, six, and nine as the day to imitate calligraphy, while four, seven and ten as the day to teach, which was somewhat different from the day previously. However, Emperor Chongzhen thought that such a slight change would be harmless, so he agreed. The teacher-student friendship between King Ding and Liu Minghan was a good story.
In history, all the emperors who succeeded to the throne were not very at ease with their own brothers. Especially those half-brothers were twice as worried.
The reason is that the emperor is afraid of their rebellion. You must know that these princes are of royal blood. Even if they usurp the throne, it is an internal struggle of the royal family. If they seized the throne, they would not cause many people to resist.
For example, the Emperor Chengzu of their ancestor Zhu Di, who usurped the throne and defeated Emperor Jianwen and entered the capital, which was the Emperor Yongle.
In addition to Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, the Zhu Di period was the most powerful period of the Ming Dynasty. Regardless of civil and military achievements, Zhu Di could be regarded as a promising king, and later generations also called him the Yongle prosperous era.
Therefore, as a prince, being too outstanding is not a good thing. It would be better if you don’t learn and live without learning and waiting to die. If you show your wise side, it will be very easy to arouse the emperor’s suspicion.
For example, before becoming King Xin, Emperor Chongzhen always lived in seclusion and had almost no contact with the outside world. Later, after Zhu Youxiao passed away, under the strong advocacy of Empress Zhang, Zhu Youjian was admitted to the palace to succeed the throne.
But there are exceptions. For example, the prince of a mother and her compatriots will be in a relatively better situation. After all, they are brothers from the womb. Their relationship is much closer than half-brothers.
The Ding King Zhu Cijiong was highly valued by Zhu Cilang after he became an adult. Zhu Cilang was also determined to cultivate his own younger brother.
The people in front of him were actually the subordinates of King Ding. This surprised Qin Maosheng and others. However, they could not believe it just by saying the other party.
So, the middle-aged man handed the sword and waist card on it. His subordinate handed the sword and waist card to Qin Maosheng. Qin Maosheng just took a look and was confirmed.
Qin Maosheng handed the sword and waist card back, and then bowed politely: "It turns out that they are my own people, but why do you appear here?"
The men looked at each other. After the middle-aged man took the sword and waist card, he bowed his hand back, but said, "I'm really sorry, Prince Ding has an order, and we are also inconvenient to tell him."
