Chapter 1896: Framed
After learning that his family was doing well, Xiao Yun felt relieved and asked about what happened in the court.
Mao Xiang also said one by one that after Xiao Yun disappeared, Xu Da's army fought with Wang Baobao and defeated Wang Baobao. However, Wang Baobao was still unwilling to give up and sent troops again the next year. After Zhu Yuanzhang learned that Wang Baobao was harassed the border, he immediately ordered Xu Da to go out to the middle as the general of the envoy, Li Wenzhong went out to the east as the left deputy general, and Feng Sheng went out to the west as the general of the west as the general of the west. On the 26th, three troops set out to fight against each other.
On February 17, Xu Da sent the governor Lan Yu to Yanmen first and to Yemachuan, and defeated the Mongolian army. On May 6, Xu Da went to Lingbei, Kuo Temur, and He Zongzhe joined forces to fight. Xu Da was defeated and tens of thousands of people died. He turned to withdraw his troops to defend the frontier. Feng Sheng's Western Army arrived in Lanzhou on June 3. The right deputy general Fu Youde first went to Pingliang and defeated the Yuan general Shilahan. Advance Yongchang, defeating the Taiwei Duoer Geba. Feng Sheng and others advanced to Yijinai, and the guard general Buyan Temur surrendered to the city and captured Guashazhou.
Li Wenzhong's Eastern Route Army left Juyongguan. On June 29th, the army arrived in Yingchang and entered Wenhe. The Yuan soldiers fled. Then they entered Halaben and Luquhe, leaving baggage, and advanced to Tulahe with light clothes. The Yuan army fled and captured tens of thousands of people. When they returned when they were in the army, they lost their way and lost their way, and the food and wages were cut off. The soldiers died of thirst. Although the Western Route Army won this northern expedition, the two routes in the middle and the East were in heavy losses, and even the rewards and punishments were not enough. When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the Tatars fleeing back to the desert, he knew that it was not easy to make the Yongqing desert, so he changed his strategy and focused on defense. He sent generals to train troops to prepare for borders and repair cities, and strictly acted as a garrison. "Do you come and do not chase you when you go."
In addition to briefly talking about some wars, Mao Xiang also talked about many other major events. One of them was that Zhu Yuanzhang asked the lecturer Song Lian as the president, and the lecturer Le Shaofeng as the editorial officer, Wu Bozong, the Ministry of Rites, Zhu You, Zhao Jie, Zhu Lian, Xu Yikui, Sun Zuo, Xu Zunsheng to compile the compilation, Zhao Chang, Jinshi of the Township, Chen Mengdang, and others to copy it. It was compiled on the first day of the fifth month of the seventh year, and was named "The Calendar of the Ming Dynasty". From Zhu Yuanzhang's rise to the army to December of the sixth year of Hongwu, all the conquests and the evolution of rituals and music
, criminal and political facilities, merits and demerits of ministers, and tributes from the four barbarians, all of them were recorded, and they were compiled into one hundred volumes, the original was stored in the Jinkui, and the copy was stored in the Secretary-General. Song Lian and others also reported: "The Calendar is hidden in the Heavenly Palace, and people cannot see it. Please imitate the Tang Dynasty's "Zhenguan Zheng Yao" and compile the sage policies, which should be displayed to the world." Zhu Yuanzhang agreed and ordered to divide the 40 categories, from respecting the heavens to controlling the barbarians, divided into five volumes, with more than 45,500 words, called the "Sermon on the Imperial Ming", and published the world. Since then, every sage policies has been recorded by historians every day, and the categories have been added.
Xiao Yun was not interested in these things, and he couldn't say anything after listening for a long time. After talking about Liu Bowen's death, even though Xiao Yun had already known the result, he still couldn't help but jump up, and he almost picked up his sword to kill Hu Weiyong.
Fortunately, Mao Xiang reassured him, and Hu Weiyong couldn't jump around for a few days. Xiao Yun heard his tone that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to attack Hu Weiyong, so he asked in detail.
Although Mao Xiang is the Jinyiwei, he is a brother of Xiao Yun and his life and death. Moreover, Hu Weiyong is having a big fight with the emperor at the moment, so it is no secret, so he told them one by one.
Xiao Yun originally thought he talked about Hu Weiyong directly, but who knew that this guy was actually stuck, and the first thing he said was the affairs of Prime Minister Wang Guangyang. Since Yang Xian's death, Zhu Yuanzhang recalled Wang Guangyang so that he could restrain Hu Weiyong in the Secretariat. Unexpectedly, since Wang Guangyang returned to the Secretariat, he ignored Hu Weiyong's actions, and only knew how to drink and have fun all day long, allowing Hu Weiyong to do something wrong.
Just a few days ago, Hu Weiyong's confidant Censor Tu Jie, somehow changed his mind, wrote a letter to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that Liu Bowen killed Hu Weiyong with medicine, and that Prime Minister Wang Guangyang should know the details.
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and immediately attracted Wang Guangyang to question him. Unexpectedly, Wang Guangyang, who was usually cowardly, refused to say that he didn't know anything. When he heard this, Zhu Yuanzhang even angrily scolded Wang Guangyang for being a traitor with Hu Weiyongpeng and did not distinguish right from wrong. In anger, he issued an imperial edict to demote him to Guangnan.
Wang Guangyang seemed to have expected such a result, but he did not defend himself and immediately packed up his things and rushed to Guangnan from the waterway.
As the saying goes, when everyone pushes it, when they learn that Wang Guangyang was demoted, the officials who are not in harmony with him on weekdays naturally would not miss such a good opportunity. They submitted memorials to impeach Wang Guangyang. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious when he saw it, and without thinking about it, he issued another imperial edict, ordering eunuchs and warriors to chase after him.
Wang Guangyang went down the river all the way. As soon as the ship arrived in Taipingzhou, he found a ship chasing him. He expected nothing good and wanted to ignore it. However, the eunuch on the ship spoke with the imperial edict. Even if he didn't want to pay attention, he would not dare to disobey the imperial edict. He had to stop the ship. When the official ship approached, he did not know that before the official ship had stopped, dozens of eunuchs and warriors jumped out of the ship.
The eunuch passed an order and said, "Wang Guangyang covers Zhu Wenzheng in Jiangxi; shelters Yang Xian in the Secretariat, and executes him immediately." Wang Guangyang was shocked and wanted to defend himself, but the warrior allowed him to speak and threw a sword to him. Wang Guangyang shouted three times: "I am unfair!" Kneeling on the ground, he slaughtered.
Hearing this, Xiao Yun sighed softly, who killed Liu Bowen. With Wang Guangyang's intelligence, he could naturally see that it was Zhu Yuanzhang's real purpose behind Hu Weiyong and Hu's misconduct that he was appointed as the right prime minister in the tenth year of Hongwu. He did not dare to make any achievements, but just drank and recited poems, and kept his throne. He might have a lot to do with him. He just took the upper hand and kept his throne and recited poems. He was afraid that he would make a mistake in his plan! This was quite imaginative to Fu Youde later.
Fu Youde was very close to Lan Yu and had great military achievements, and was even more suspicious by Zhu Yuanzhang. In the 27th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang had a banquet for civil and military affairs. Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly mentioned that he was a little dissatisfied with Fu Youde's son. Fu Youde stood up and accused him of being disrespectful. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered him to extract the head of his second son. Immediately, Fu Youde brought the head of his second son to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang said, "How can you bear it?" Fu Youde said, "Isn't it just to ask for the head of our father and son?" Finally, he committed suicide in front of Zhu. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and ordered all men and women of the Fu family to be exiled in Liaodong and Yunnan. Only the eldest son Fu Yong was able to escape and leave the son of the late Princess Shouchun (Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson) in Beijing. Their deaths were almost the same.
Mao Xiang continued, "When Wang Guangyang died, his beloved concubine Chen was strong and received bad news, and he committed suicide to sacrifice for his husband. This incident was reported to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and ordered people to investigate the origin of the Wang family's concubine. Who knew that after investigation, the Wang family's concubine had a special identity. She was the daughter of an offender. Her father was originally a county magistrate. She was sold to the official slave for breaking the law. The Ming Dynasty law, the official slave could only be rewarded to military generals with military achievements, and the civil officials could not be involved. Zhu Yuanzhang was furious when he heard this and immediately ordered the officials to thoroughly investigate the matter. Who knew that after investigation, he found the Secretariat and found Hu Weiyong's head.
