When Zhu Di Jingnan started the war, there were only more than 20000 soldiers and horses. The number of soldiers was too small to achieve great things. He asked his younger brother, Ning Wang Zhu Quan, for help. At that time, Ning Wang Zhu Quan's fief was at the border of modern Inner Mongolia. Because of years of war with Mongolians, his officers and men were extremely strong.
In order to gain the support of his younger brother Zhu Quan, Zhu Di patted his chest and made a promise: "Once the Jingnan battle is successful, you and my brother will take charge of it together in the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Quan believed these vows and gladly joined the Jingnan battle.
As a result, Zhu Di successfully won the throne of his nephew Zhu Yunwen, and won the unanimous approval of the officers and men. How could he be willing to share the beautiful scenery with his younger brother Zhu Quan, so he broke his promise and turned against him.
Zhu Di also feared that King Ning's military power was too great. His descendants would be subject to the check and balance of King Ning in the future. He simply seized the military power of King Ning and demoted Zhu Quan to Nanchang House in Jiangxi Province for house arrest. Before his death, Zhu Quan denounced the emperor's brother's dishonest and unjust actions to his descendants and told future generations not to forget their previous shame.
Later, King Ning overthrew the descendants of Zhu Di, and was able to take his place. He usurped power and made it his duty to become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He thought about pacifying the rebellion every day.
At that time, Jiangxi had announced that the administrative region of the envoys was slightly different from that of modern Jiangxi Province, and the territory was much larger. One of Jiangxi was granted three kings, including King Ning of Nanchang, King Huai of Raozhou Prefecture (today's Poyang County), and King Yi of Jianchang Prefecture (today's Nancheng County).
The Three Kings used their special identity and status to seriously interfere with local politics, which had a great negative impact on the security and governance of Jiangxi, especially King Ning.
Xingzi County is under the jurisdiction of the government envoy Sinankang's government in Jiangxi Province. Perhaps because it is located at the crossroads, King Ning and his subordinate officers and advisers wanted to buy the county magistrate Wu Cheng according to the previous example, so as to seize the ruling power of this place and become the frontier pioneer before King Ning raised an issue. Finally, Xingzi County has been extending in all directions. Since ancient times, it has been known as "the throat of the South, the key to the Xijiang River".
Although Xie Chun has known that Zhu Jinjun, the king of Ning, is planning to usurp the throne, he lacks the evidence and material evidence of Ning Wang's rebellion. If Wu Cheng, a person who is in charge of the county in the seventh grade, and Liu Zhongzhi, and a piece of official seal of the commander of Ning Wang's residence, go to report a vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, whether Xie Chun, Zhang Cheng or Wu Cheng, who is planning to rebel, They all think it is impossible.
If the matter is leaked, the king Ning's side will kill Liu Zhong and others. It will not help the matter, but will undoubtedly scare the snake and make the king Ning's group hide deeper. In the future, it will bring greater and deeper harm to the Ming Dynasty and the people under the world.
Then we have to look for other evidence and exhibits, which is also the biggest reason why Zhang Cheng asked Xie Chun to come to support us. Xie Chun is a favorite of the Hongzhi Emperor. He is not only a hereditary auspicious count, but also has a good relationship with the Royal Guards commander Moubin. No matter whether he reaches Shengyin or is transferred, Zhang Cheng believes that Xie Chun is much better than him and Wu Cheng.
As for pulling Xie Chun into the whirlpool of fighting against the vassal king, Zhang Cheng does not agree with this, nor does he feel ashamed. He firmly believes that loyalty to the monarch and patriotism are the loyalty beliefs of scholars, and believes that Xie Chun's ideas are the same as his own.
Looking at Xie Chun's embarrassed face, Wu Cheng suddenly remembered that in the county government, he had overheard Liu Zhong say that he would go to the quasi royal residence of Raozhou Mansion to contact the Huai King to start an accident together.
Maybe it was Liu Zhong who wanted to let Wu Cheng see their strength and expected Wu Cheng to play for Ning Wang because he was sure of the victory.
Zhang Cheng also sent the information collected by himself and his trusted followers in Ning Wang's territory to Xie Chun for reference. Xie Chun soon found the name of Zhu Chenhao, the king of Shanggao.
Zhu Chenhao likes civil affairs and military affairs. He has always been courteous to the virtuous corporal. He is extremely courteous and appreciative of talents with military talents. He once recruited a Ju Ren who knows military strategies as Zhu Chenhao's royal teacher.
The literati under the rule of King Ning often sighed and commented on this matter, thinking that King Shang Gao was too obsessed with military strategy, while the literati who despised literature and wonderful Juelun, although somewhat derogatory, did not hurt elegance.
Xie Chun has other ideas about this matter. I'm afraid this person is Zhu Chenhao, who will be used as a military adviser for rebellion in the future, right? Can I start from this aspect and lure Liu Zhong and his gang into the trap?
Xie Chun has an idea at once, so he tells Zhang Cheng and Wu Cheng about his plan. However, they strongly oppose him. Seeing that they refuse to agree, Xie Chun uses Xiao Xie as an excuse to temporarily leave the room.
After a while, a middle-aged scholar with a white beard walked into the room and bowed to them, but did not speak.
Zhang Cheng was immediately shocked. Wang Hu and Xie He were guarding the door of the house. How could this man walk into the room without saying a word? Could they have been killed or arrested.
Is it possible that the matter of saving Wu Cheng has been leaked out, and people from Lord Ning's Mansion came to arrest him and Wu Cheng, which would not involve Xie Chun and also kill him here? Wu Cheng also changed his face and struggled to get up.
The middle-aged man saw that Zhang and Wu were so frightened that their faces changed. He smiled and said, "Two brothers, can you see that I am Xiang Ruibo, Xie Chun, Xie Zihou? But did you scare them?"
What they said was a local accent in Huangshan, Anhui Province. Zhang Cheng and Wu Cheng could not understand it. They looked at the middle-aged man in surprise and said nothing.
The middle-aged man seemed to understand something. He changed his accent to Huguang and asked again, "Two brothers, can you see what my flaws are? I'm Zihou."
Zhang Cheng and Wu Cheng heard something this time, but some of them didn't believe their eyes and still stared at the middle-aged man in a daze.
Looking at the two people's astonishment, the middle-aged man said it again in Mandarin and made a hearty laugh.
This time, when Zhang Cheng heard Xie Chun's familiar laughter, he believed that he didn't recognize the wrong person, and angrily patted Xie Chun with his hand. Surprised and slightly angry, he blamed him: "Such a big man is doing something wrong again, which scared me and Brother Wu to death. Brother Chun, when did you learn how to dress up? It really scared me."
Xie Chun laughs and rolls his eyes at Zhang Cheng: "Brother, have you forgotten what you did with the bowl weight? Is there anything I can do to stop my younger brother? Now I will lure the enemy again, and you and brother Wu will not stop us again, will they?"
Zhang Cheng and Wu Cheng have gained a lot of insight. Even the people they know with Xie Chun can't see anything different. What's more, those who know nothing about Xie Chun and others can't see how to dress up, so they reluctantly agree to Xie Chun's request.
In fact, Xie Chun's cosmetic surgery is not surprising. It's just that he uses his hair on his lips to pretend to be a beard. The skin of his face is slightly treated to look older. Other features of his body can't be changed at all.
Only Xie Chun has a very high linguistic talent and is extremely intelligent. He can speak several different local languages. When he is caught off guard, he startles Zhang Cheng and Wu Cheng. If Zhang Cheng had not worried about his own failure, he would have seen something strange even if Xie Chun did not speak his identity. This is the so-called "mind watcher is confused".
