"Geda! Geda!" A strong horse galloped rapidly in the forest. The dust from the horse's hooves formed a cloud of smoke like a yellow dragon behind him. The birds in the forest were frightened by the sound. A dusty knight on the horse grabbed the reins with one hand and waved the whip with the other. When the horse hurt, the slow steps quickly got up again.

The speeding horse rushed out of the dense forest, and a majestic city appeared in front of him. It was clearly visible a few miles away from the high city head. A wide moat surrounded the city, and a straight pipeline extended all the way to the city. The pipeline was full of bustling crowds.

Luoyang, the ancient capital of the Nine Dynasties, was known as the world, with mountains and rivers, and its aura. Zhu Changxun, the King of Fu, was named Zhu Youxiao, the uncle of Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Changxun, the favorite concubine of Emperor Shenzong, was the son of Concubine Zheng, the favorite concubine of Emperor Shenzong. Shenzong favored Concubine Zheng, loved the house and the wuwu, and was also particularly fond of Zhu Changxun. He had repeatedly tried to depose the prince, but unfortunately he failed in the end. In the end, due to the ancestral system that the prince was not allowed to stay in the capital, in the 42nd year of Wanli, Zhu Changxun was named King of Fu and his fief was Luoyang. He was rewarded with countless gold and silver, and rewarded 40,000 hectares of land. He also gave him miscellaneous taxes from Jiangdu to Taiping River, Sichuan salt well and tea tax silver. He gave him three thousand entries of Huai salt and opened a salt shop in Luoyang.

The Baihu guarding the East City Gate of Luoyang was sitting in front of the small table at the city gate drinking wine. Suddenly, he heard a noise in front of him. He looked up and saw a horse rushing towards the city gate. The knight on the horse held up a silver token with one hand and rushed over the city gate. The Baihu guarding the city gate quickly got up, chased to the city gate, and looked at the knight galloping past.

"Sir Hundred Houses, it wouldn't be our dereliction of duty to let someone rush through the city gate?" a soldier asked cowardly.

The hundred-family family glared fiercely and said, "Damn it, what's the point? The salary this month has been reduced by half!"

The soldier looked unfair and replied, "Sir, this is holding the token of Prince Fu's Mansion. How dare you stop me?"

"Then I'll talk so much nonsense, so I won't go to collect the cash. I'll charge you one less cent!" The hundred household said viciously.

But just after he finished speaking, another knight holding a token was racing past the horse, and the horse's hooves splashed dust on the ground, making the hundred-family family's faces!

Luoyang, Fuwang Mansion.

Zhu Changxun was lying comfortably on the chair, holding a warm bag in his arms, a silk quilt covered his feet, a maid who was still in her old age was gently hammering Zhu Changxun's feet, and a dragon-shaped smoke rose from the incense burner on the table. Zhu Changxun squinted his eyes and looked at the changing smoke carefully, feeling very much. Maybe his Emperor's dream is this smoke, which looks like a dragon, but it is not at all, and it cannot be caught even if it is!

"Prince! Prince!" A man dressed in eunuch rushed in from outside the door and shouted in a hurry.

Zhu Changxun looked at the wind brought by the eunuch's body to rush the dragon-shaped smoke, and couldn't help but feel bored, and said angrily: "What are you shouting in the early morning? Haven't you seen me recuperate?"

The eunuch gasped and said anxiously: "Prince, General Liu, the garrison of Luoyang, just now, received an order from the capital, saying that a refugee in Shaanxi has caused trouble recently, and the garrison of the garrison must step up his armament!"

Zhu Changxun thought for a while, then narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "What's the matter! This has been like this in the past few years. If the refugees rebelled, they should be on guard! Also, remember to let the people below be careful and not let those untouchables rebellion in my territory. Give that kid in the capital a handle!"

The eunuch was obviously a little worried and continued, "Prince, but according to the servants, there has been no large-scale refugee riots in Shaanxi recently. Is the movement in the capital already noticed, so this is how it is!"

Zhu Changxun slowly closed his eyes and thought carefully. As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, he almost impressed the prince who deposed the prince by Emperor Shenzong. Zhu Changxun is naturally not an idiot. If he is greedy for beauty, it is just to alleviate the pain of not being able to ascend the throne. Zhu Changxun thought for a while, opened his eyes suddenly and said to the eunuch: "Is there any news from the queen of the capital recently? Is the queen of the mother leaking news? But it shouldn't be true. Queen of the mother is careful and will never leak news! Could it be that the whereabouts of the people you sent were exposed?"

The eunuch quickly replied: "Prince, all the slaves sent the elites in the mansion, and they were all dead soldiers. Even if they were discovered, they would not leave any clues. It should not be this problem! Could it be that the Imperial Concubine took action in advance, but not either. If it was taken, we should get the news faster than the orders received by the Luoyang garrison!"

Zhu Changxun pondered for a moment, then said happily: "What do you think about? The emperor has long wanted to attack me. These are just methods he did in advance and have nothing to do with the situation in the capital. Besides, it is not a big deal. He is panicked, like something!"

At this time, a voice came from outside the door: "Prince, the messenger from the capital has arrived, saying it was a hundred thousand urgent letters. The servant dared to disturb the prince!"

Zhu Changxun looked at the eunuch in front of him, and then said, "Come on this to me!"

Then an eunuch pushed open the door of the house, walked in, sealed a bamboo tube, and placed the letter with a lacquer seal on Zhu Changxun's table, and then pushed it down after saluting.

Zhu Changxun picked up the letter on the table and took out the sealed letter from the bamboo tube. When he saw the content, he was immediately shocked. The bamboo tube fell to the ground and rolled far away.

When the eunuch saw Zhu Changxun's shock, he immediately turned his face with concern and asked, "Prince? This..."

Zhu Changxun put the secret letter in his hand on the table and said weakly: "Look at it for yourself!"

The eunuch picked up the secret letter and was shocked when he saw it. He hurriedly said, "Prince, what should I do now? Things have happened. If I don't do it, it will be too late!"

"Action? Is it necessary to say this? My mother just said that the assassination tomorrow, but the letter will be sent for a few days, so the result must have been released. But we don't know what the result is. If it succeeds, we must go to Beijing to ascend the throne. If it fails, what choice do we have? No matter what, act according to the scheduled plan, and send a letter to each foreign king, and send someone to notify the Luoyang prefect, Luoyang garrison, and let the soldiers at home take over the city defense, and the whole city is martial law!" Zhu Changxun issued a series of orders one after another.

The eunuch was really ready to retreat, and then the door of the house was knocked open with a 'bang', a knight with a cracked lips, a sunken eye socket, and a blood-colored face rolled in, rushed to Zhu Changxun's feet, and cried in pain:

"Prince, Empress! Empress, she hanged herself!"

Zhu Changxun seemed to be hit by a thunderbolt, his face full of pain. After a while, he thought painfully: "My mother, both the son ministers are greedy for the throne, which is why the mother's life is harmed. It's all the son minister's fault!"

Then he hammered heavily on the sandalwood table in front of him and shouted hysterically: "School, I am irreconcilable to you. In the future, either you die or I die!"

In the Forbidden City, Zuoshunmenzhong. Zhu Youxiao held a cabinet meeting, and the members of the cabinet and officials of the Ministry of War stood seriously in the house.

"Minister of War? Tell me how many soldiers can this King of Fu get?" Zhu Youxiao suddenly found that sometimes it was particularly painful to deal with a civil war. The Ming Dynasty was troubled by Liaodong, and its troops were mainly concentrated in these directions. The soldiers in the mainland could not find any good troops except the three camps in the capital. As for the garrisons distributed in various places, their combat power was really limited. According to the information obtained by Zhu Youxiao, there were at least a few thousand soldiers in the Fu Palace, and even tens of thousands were possible.

, and for many years, most of the officials in the process were confidants of King Fu Zhu Changxun. Even now, there are still followers of King Fu! Zhu Youxiao’s idea was to defeat King Fu in one blow. If he used those ragged troops, he might not be able to fight in Luoyang City for a few months. At that time, his trouble would be great! King Fu dared not rebel if he didn’t have any strength. I guess if his attack was not strong, the foreign kings everywhere would follow the trend at that time, and he would probably be finished!

When the Minister of War Cui Jingrong heard Zhu Youxiao’s name, he had to go forward and say, “By the emperor, there are about 10,000 private soldiers in the Fu Palace. If you add the defenders of Luoyang and the cities near Luoyang, there are about 40,000. However, the equipment is relatively backward and cannot be compared with the three camps in the capital!”

Zhu Youxiao thought about how there were 40,000 people, and war could not be played with, and he would definitely kill him with one blow. According to his own understanding, after the demise of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor of the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty was the son of the King of Fu. Therefore, it seems that the King of Fu must have surrounded him in the court, so he said: "King Fu was originally my uncle. When the Prince of the First Emperor was the crown prince, he was bullied by the King of Fu in every possible way. After the Prince of the First Emperor ascended the throne, he was magnanimous and did not pursue the matter at that time. However, King of Fu actually chose a deadly soldier to assassinate me, which was a treason! Conspiracy was a death sentence! Do you have any good methods to say it bluntly! I need the opinions of all the ministers!"

As the chief minister of the cabinet, Sun Chengzong was usually the first to speak, so he went out and said, "The emperor, the emperor's opinion is that the King of Fu is planning to rebel, and the gods are angry, and everyone can be punished. What the emperor wants to do now is to declare the world, and count the King of Fu's crimes, and then send elite troops to surround him and capture him!
