When I entered the palace, I had already arrived at the Jinshen Palace to pay a morning visit.

Zhu Gaoxu led his troops into the imperial city from Donghua Gate and rushed towards Jinshen Hall. The guards on duty outside Jinshen Hall were about to collapse and fled in all directions. Zhu Gaoxu's 10,000 troops quickly surrounded Jinshen Hall.

Zhu Gaoxu led the guards and rushed up the jade stairs to the gate of Jinshen Hall. Seeing that the gate was closed and the sound of killing outside was shocking, the palace was silent, and it was very strange and a vague feeling that something was wrong. He turned over and got off the horse, walked forward, pushed open the heavy gate of Jinshen Hall, and looked inside, which made him stunned.

I saw that there was no one in Jinshen Hall, and a huge land sign stood in front of the Golden Throne, which read: "Those who plot against the enemy will be killed without mercy!"

Zhu Gaoxu exclaimed and shouted to retreat quickly!

Hearing the explosion outside, a thought flashed through Zhu Gaoxu's mind: It's over! Being ambushed! When he turned around, he saw that his own people and horses outside Jinshen's palace had been blown up. Countless artillery appeared at the battlement of the underground city above the imperial city. Then, there was a rain of arrows in the sky - arrows shot down from the palace like pouring rain like heavy rain!

In order to facilitate movement, Zhu Gaoxu only wore light armor, which could not stop the arrows from shooting like rain. They were all shot in arrows and screamed and died.

Zhu Gaoxu's archers fought back, but the other party was above the imperial city and had battlements protection, so they had very little damage. They did not carry siege ladder equipment and had no way to contact and fight with the enemy. They were trapped in the realm of being beaten but unable to fight back.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhu Gaoxu ordered to retreat north, attempting to break through the Qianqing Gate, enter the inner court, and meet with the Tiance Guard.

Unexpectedly, before they could attack, the Qianqing Gate opened automatically, and countless heavy-armored cavalry rushed out from inside, rushing towards them like wasps rushing to the ground. These heavy-armored cavalrymen were all thick armor, and Zhu Gaoxu could not cut his hand at all. They were killed in chaos in a while, and countless casualties were injured.

Seeing that the Ming army's heavy armored cavalry rushed from the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Gaoxu immediately ordered to retreat to the south gate, trying to get there to meet Ji Gang's 10,000 Yiwei and then rushed out together.

They braved the rain of arrows and artillery on the imperial city on both sides, and were bitten by heavy armored cavalry behind their butts. They only hoped to break out of the Meridian Gate and meet Ji Gang's men and horses.

Zhu Gaoxu rushed through Huagai Hall and Fengtian Hall, and came to the front of the Meridian Gate. Only then did he realize that the Meridian Gate was covered with heavy armored cavalry in the Meridian Gate. The men and horses were all covered with heavy armored armor, revealing only a pair of murderous eyes.

Before Zhu Gaoxu's defeated general recovered, the cavalry rushed over like a tide. He attacked the heavy cavalry from behind, splitting and surrounding the enemy.

The power in this imperial city is flat and is most suitable for cavalry combat. Zhu Gaoxu's territory is led by some light-armored infantry short swordsmen. How can they be the opponents of these heavy-armored cavalry? What's more, the number of cavalry is several times higher than them. With few charges, Zhu Gaoxu's army has been destroyed. Most of the casualties are killed and injured. The remaining areas kneel down and surrender.

Zhu Gaoxu rode on the horse and looked around. In addition to less than a few hundred people kneeling down and surrendering, the wide bluestone in the palace was lying all over his own soldiers, and around him, he was surrounded by heavily armored cavalry with heavy armored cavalry, pointing his spear at him with gloomy spear.

Zhu Gaoxu sighed and threw away the sword in his hand. He closed his eyes and waited for death.

At this moment, the cavalry separated and several war horses walked towards him in a brisk manner.

Zhu Gaoxu slowly opened his eyes and saw several cavalry in front of him. One of them was the Ming Chengzu. The few people next to him were the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, the crown prince Zhu Zhanji, the governor of the fifth army, Xue Lu, the marquis of Yangwu, and Yang Qiuchi, the marquis of Zhenyuan. Behind him were the guards of Liu Ruobing, Song Yuner and Nangong Xiong.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen tied-up landmen were taken out, but it was Ji Gang, Ji Piao and the second prince sent the generals to attack the inner court and the crown prince's mansion. When they saw them, Zhu Gaoxu knew that all their plans were already under the control of the land of his father, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, and all the troops in the land were wiped out.

It turned out that Yang Qiuchi offered a plan to Chengzu of Ming to let Chengzu of Ming first announce the establishment of the crown prince Zhu Zhanji, thereby leading the snake out of the cave. Sure enough, the second prince Zhu Gaoxu saw that hope was shattered, and colluded with Ji Gang to instigate a rebellion.

On the night when the emperor announced his establishment, Yang Qiuchi asked Liu Ruobing to sneak into Ji Gang's mansion again and retrieve the micro digital camera for surveillance land. After Yang Qiuchi checked the digital camera, he learned about Zhu Gaoxu and Ji Gang's action arrangements and deployments, and immediately went to the palace to tell the emperor. Only then did the Ming Chengzu set up a targeted net, thus capturing all the rebellious troops of Zhu Gaoxu and Ji Gang's.

Ming Chengzu looked at his son Zhu Gaoxu, his eyes were filled with sadness, and his face seemed to have grown a lot aged suddenly. After all, quelling his son's rebellion was not a pleasant thing.

Both of them didn't speak. At this moment, the morning glow had already reddished the sky, gently scattering on the corpses piled up in the wide square of the palace. From time to time, I heard the neighing of the horses and the screams and moans of the dying soldiers.

After all, Ming Chengzu was not a sentimental person. He waved his whip and said coldly: "Gao Xu, do you know your guilt?"

Zhu Gaoxu slowly got off his war horse and knelt down: "My son's crimes are unforgivable, please give him death!"

"Come!" Ming Chengzu shouted loudly: "Put him out of the Meridian Gate and behead him!"

"Let's go!" Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi shouted, turned over and dismounted, walked to the land of Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, and knelt down on one knee: "Father, my son pleaded for the second brother of the emperor, and begged his father to pardon his sins." He is the prince's rule, unless the ceremony is formal, there is no need to kneel down to Chengzu of Ming Dynasty.

Ming Chengzu's face turned pale and shouted: "The crime of treason cannot be forgiven..."

"Father!" Zhu Gaochi changed to kneeling down, "Although the second emperor's brother plotted to rebel, he was deeply in love with his family. The sons could not bear to see his father kill his son, so he begged his father to pardon him for his death."

"The kindness of a woman! Do you think that if you plead for him, he will not rebel against you in the future?"

Zhu Gaochi's face showed a hesitation. After all, it was Ming Chengzu who was protecting him now. If Ming Chengzu returns to the West in the future and the second prince turns his back, he will not be his opponent.

Zhu Gaoxu observed his expression and saw a glimmer of vitality. He hurriedly kowtowed, raised his right arm and said, "Father, my son knows his mistake. In the future, the emperor's brother ascends the throne, and my son will support him sincerely. If he has the intention to rebel, he will not die well if he is punished!"

Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said, "Father, the second emperor's brother has already sweared on the spot, so you should pardon his sins."

How could Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty believe in oath? In his war, he believed that the land was a deception, and the political struggle was full of conspiracies and tricks. He knew his second son so well, and this oath was no different from farting.

Sure enough, after the death of Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, the Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne. Zhu Gaoxu began to rebel again, but when he was still preparing, Zhu Gaochi, who had been emperor for a year, passed away. The crown prince Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, and Zhu Gaochi rebelled again.

However, although Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty knew the virtue of the second prince, the prince was pleaded with mercy in public now. If he was not sure, he would definitely defeat the prince's prestige and would be very unfavorable for the prince's ascension to the throne in the future. In addition, the tiger's poison did not eat his son, which also made him hesitate a little.

Ming Chengzu turned around and asked the crown prince Zhu Zhanji: "Zhanji. Tell me, how should you deal with your rebellious uncle?"

Zhu Zhanji dismounted, walked to his father Zhu Gaochi, and knelt side by side: "Grandpa Emperor, Zhanji believes that, aside from family affection, the second emperor's uncle was born and died in the Jingnan battle, and saved the emperor's life many times. He used his merits to repay his faults, and he should also pardon the second emperor's uncle's sins. This is how he clearly distinguished his grudges."

Ming Chengzu smiled and said, "Okay. What a distinction between grudges. Grandson, do you know that if you spare him now, he may not be able to spare you in the future!"

Zhu Zhanji thrust his chest: "Zhanji is not afraid~!"

Sure enough, after Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, Zhu Gaochi rebelled again, and was soon pacified by Zhu Zhanji and captured Zhu Gaochi alive, but he still did not kill him, but put him under house arrest.

However, Zhu Gaochi was determined to eat the weight. Later, Emperor Zhu Zhanji went to visit him. Zhu Gaochi tried to murder Zhu Zhanji again, and finally hooked up the real fire of Zhu Di, and ordered Zhu Gaochi to be covered with a large copper jar. The coal piled up outside was ignited, and Zhu Gaochi was roasted to death. It also responded to his oath of not being able to die in the palace.

After hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, Ming Chengzu laughed: "Okay! Be brave! I will spare his life when I say this to you!"

The three of them kowtowed and thanked each other at the same time.

Ming Chengzu said again: "But I can't let my good grandson take this risk. Gao Chi is a tiger who can eat people. I must pull out his teeth and cut off his minions. Gao Xu, when I first named you the King of Han, I used Yunnan as your title. You said you are not wrong and don't want to go so far. Now? Are you willing to go?"

Zhu Gaoxu knew that this was the last chance that Emperor Chengzu of Ming gave him to transfer him from the capital to avoid causing trouble for the prince and the others. Zhu Gaoxu had no choice and kowtowed and said, "My son is willing to go."

"Okay! I used to give you the Tiance Guard to participate in the rebellion. Today, I have been completely wiped out. I have taken it back and reorganized. You privately recruited 10,000 troops in the land, and most of them were wiped out. Only these hundreds of remnants were left. Do you want to take them to Yunnan?"

Zhu Gaoxu was overjoyed and looked up and was about to thank him. When he saw Ming Chengzu's sarcastic gaze, he was shocked and kowtowed, "These are all traitors, and they should be punished for their crimes. How can they go to Yunnan with their sons? The sons only take their families to Yunnan."

Ming Chengzu smiled and said, "When you arrive in Yunnan, you must stay in your Han Palace honestly. Without my permission, you are not allowed to leave Yunnan, and don't have any other ideas. Your personal soldiers must not have more than one hundred people. I will ask Yunnan officials to report your activity to me at any time. Have you heard it clearly?"

"I heard it clearly. I thank my father for not killing me!" Zhu Gaoxu felt miserable: This was not a place he had signed, the whole first-class army was rushing. However, it was enough to save one life. He turned around and kowtowed to the prince Zhu Gaochi: "Thank you, the emperor, for pleading for Gao Xu."

Zhu Gaoxu stepped forward and helped him up.

Ming Chengzu said again: "Gao Xu, since you are leaving, it is better to go back and clean up, and set off immediately, and don't need to say goodbye."

Zhu Gaoxu bowed and said, "My son received the order to thank you!" He took a few steps back, and did not take the horse, turned around and staggered away.

Ming Chengzu ordered Ji Gang and Ji Piao to come up. The two of them knew they were unlucky. They knelt down and closed their eyes and waited for death.

Yang Qiuchi reported to Ming Chengzu that there were several questions to ask them. After Ming Chengzu approved, Yang Qiuchi first asked Ji Gang: "Where did the corpse you used to frame Yun Lengdi?"

Ji Gang was about to die and refusal to make trouble. He was afraid he would suffer a lot, so he said as the truth: "He came to Xingziao to collect woodcutters. Those who were close to the camp were caught and stabbed him to death in order to keep it a secret. I used him to accuse Yun Leng."

Yang Qiuchi nodded, turned around and asked Ji Piao, "You raped and killed Governor Xue's beloved concubine, right?"

Ji Piao was about to die anyway. He didn't want to deny it, so he raised his head and said, "Yes, it was my uncle who asked me to go to the ground."

"Did you wear your gloves?"

"I've worn it. I'm worried about fighting with the Xue Mansion guards, so I brought those black silk gloves."

"Is anyone going with you?"

"Yes, Jia Dali, we sneaked into Xue's mansion, and he killed two maids."

Yang Qiuchi was shocked and asked, "Did he rape Xu Lingzi?"

"No. After he cut off the maid, he went out to look at the wind."

Jia Dali is Ji Gangdi's personal bodyguard and was once arrested by the suspect. Yang Qiuchi checked his embroidered spring knife and found that there was indeed a gap in the ground, but it was very small. He would not form the kind of tearing wound as big as a grain of rice during the sharp cut.

Looking back now, it can be explained that the two maids have been dead for half a year. Although the corpse has been burial in time and the temperature in winter is low, the body has been corrupted after all, and the body has swelled, causing the tearing and swelling. I ignored this problem at that time and misjudged that the blade gap should be the size of rice grains. Therefore, there is no suspicion of Jia Dali, and because Jia Dali did not rape Xu Lingzi, the blood type is different, thus ruled out that Jia Dali commits the crime. Now it seems that the setting was wrong at the beginning, and it is not estimated that the murderer was two people.

Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ji Gang, and issued an order to send Ji Gang, Ji Piao, Ji Gang's best friends, and hundreds of soldiers captured in the rebellion, to the execution ground of the Ministry of Justice, and to the execution ground of the Ministry of Justice. The nine clans were implicated, and all the men and women were executed. The mother, daughter, wife, concubine, sister and other women were all given to the family of the heroes as slaves. Of course, this hero is Yang Qiuchi. All of Ji Gang's property was paid to Yang Qiuchi for rewards.

In addition, the Ming Chengzu issued an order to inspect the second prince Zhu Gaoxu and Ji Gang to arrest all the financiers in the court, the country and the country, and to behead them. This time, more than 25,000 people were killed.

After Ji Gang and others were taken away, Ming Chengzu smiled and said to Yang Qiuchi: "Yang Aiqing, you have made great contributions to cracking Gao Xu and Ji Gang's rebellion case. I will reward you well. Ji Gang is dead. You will be in charge of this Jinyiwei in the future. This is not a reward. Whatever you want, just say!"

This time, it can be said that Yang Qiuchi saved the life of Ming Chengzu, otherwise it would be not certain who would win or lose. Therefore, Ming Chengzu had already made up his mind and Yang Qiuchi's request was met. Even if he asked Princess Yunlu to be her concubine, he would agree even if he was happy. After all, Yunlu was just the goddaughter of Ming Chengzuzu, and the daughter of Miao King. The father of Miao King agreed to give Yunlu to Yang Qiuchi as a concubine. Seeing that Yang Qiuchi made such a great contribution, he turned a blind eye and agreed.

Unexpectedly, Yang Qiuchi did not ask for Yun Lu. He thought for a while and said, "Weichen wants to do his best to manage the Jinyiwei and share the worries of the emperor. Weichen cannot handle many administrative affairs of Yingtian Mansion..."

Ming Chengzu smiled and said, "This is easy to deal with. The Song magistrate of Ningguo Mansion married you two daughters and one niece, especially the daughter Liu. In this case, he was the first to be a conscience. Liu could not be an official. This contribution would be considered to be the prefect of Song. In this way, I will promote him to the prefect of Yingtian Mansion. Let you take the throne guard with peace of mind. What do you think?"

Yang Qiuchi was overjoyed and looked back at Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner. They were also full of joy. The three of them got off the horse and knelt down to kowtow to Ming Chengzu to thank him.

Ming Chengzu laughed and said, "Yang Aiqing, I promoted you to the commander of the Jinyiwei. In addition, you will be granted the Duke of Zhenguo with a salary of 2,500 stones. Your wife will be promoted to the Grandmaster of Zhenguo and the Lady of Zhenguo."

Yang Qiuchi hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him.

Ming Chengzu thought about it and said to Liu Ruobing: "Mrs. Liu, you have made great contributions to suppressing the rebellion this time, but you have all the credits you have made to enjoy with your master and father. This is not fair. Let's do this, I will confer you as a first-rate lady."

Liu Ruobing's identity is a concubine. It is impossible to be side by side with the original wife. According to the rules, when the title is generally required, it is a third-class title. Since Yang Qiuchi was promoted to Duke Zhenguo, his wife Feng Xiaoxue was promoted to the title, of course, he was the wife of Zhenguo, and was demoted to the title of third-class title, so Liu Ruobing was named the first-class title.

Although Liu Ruobing didn't care about Hao's enthronement, she was still happy after all. She hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her.

Ming Chengzu asked Yang Qiuchi again: "Yang Aiqing, what else do you have to ask for?"

Yang Qiuchi still didn't expect Yunlu to go. After all, he had already told Liu Ruobing and the others that he would not take concubines anymore. Yang Qiuchi thought for a while and said, "After all the Ji Gang clans were executed, there were many empty seats among the senior officials of the Jinyiwei, and Weichen wanted to promote some people."

"Okay, the Jinyiwei is below thousands of households, it is up to you to promote it."

"Thank you, the emperor. I am personally guarding Nangong Xiong, Xu Shiling, Shi Qiujian and Xia Ping. I share life and death with me, and I have the same brothers and sisters as my wife. Now Jianwen fled overseas and Ji Gang is executed. I am no longer threatening a powerful enemy, and I don't need so many guards. Besides, I am also a concubine, Liu Shi, and the Song sisters, who have excellent martial arts skills, are enough to protect the safety of me. Therefore, I am requesting the emperor to promote Nangong Xiong and four others to be senior officials of the Jinyiwei."

Ming Chengzu nodded and said, "Okay, Nangong Xiong and others listen to the title!"

Nangong Xiong and four others hurriedly dismounted, came to the front of Ming Chengzu, knelt down and kowtowed.

[Next page] The Ming Chengzu said: "I have conferred Nangong Xiong and Xu Shiling as the third-rank magistrate of the Jinyiwei; conferred Shi Qiujian and Xia Ping as the fourth-rank magistrate!"

The four of them were overjoyed and kowtowed to thank Long En.

The four of them followed Yang Qiuchi, living and dying together, sharing hardships and hardships. It is truly like brothers and sisters. At this moment, Yang Qiuchi initiated the emperor to promote them directly to senior officials of the Jinyiwei, which made the four of them feel excited. After the Ming Chengzu asked them to calm down, the four of them knelt down on one knee to express their gratitude.
To be continued...
