"Mr. Fang, there's something I don't understand. I don't know if I should tell you.”
Everyone was silent for a while before Crown Prince Zhu Biao asked.
"Please speak, Crown Prince."
Fang Yunfei nodded.
Compared to Zhu Di, who was still in the street and had not evolved to the Yongle template, he was still in the street. Fang Yunfei respected the kind and generous Crown Prince Zhu Biao.
"Since that grandnephew of mine is so kind, why does nephew Gao Xi still want to rebel? Could it be that there were people around Emperor Xuan De who advised him to cut his vassal?”
Since ancient times, the rebellion of the vassal kings had always been because the imperial court had cut off their vassal states.
The distant ones were like the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, and the recent ones were like the Battle of Jingnan.
Therefore, the first thing Zhu Biao thought of was whether it was because Zhu Zhanji wanted to cut off the vassal state that he forced his second uncle to rebel.
"That's not true! Before Zhu Gaoxi rebelled, Zhu Zhanji was still very respectful to his second uncle. Even the most respected one would treat his second uncle with the courtesy of a nephew.”
"Even when Zhu Gaochi was the emperor, he took great care of his younger brother, Zhu Gaoxi. He often gave him gold, silver, silk, and all kinds of imperial items.”
"Moreover, after the King of Yan ascended the throne, in order to prevent other vassal kings from following suit, he deprived them of their military power.”
"Other than enjoying wealth and glory, the vassal kings pose no threat to the imperial court.”
"Zhu Zhanji also doesn't need to cut off his second uncle's fief.”
Fang Yunfei shook his head and denied Zhu Biao's guess.
"Then why did our grandson Gao Xi rebel?”
"Do you have nothing better to do?"
This time, even Zhu Yuanzhang could not sit still.
The reason why he started the army was because the world was in chaos. The government did not treat people as humans. If he did not start the army, there was no way out.
Fourth brother rebelled because Yun Wen, that muddle-headed fool, was determined to force his uncles into a dead end.
However, not only was Zhu Gaoxi not demoted, but his brother and nephew had also treated him well.
How could he not take things too hard to walk on the path of rebellion!
Not only Zhu Yuanzhang, but even Zhu Di and Zhu Biao were confused.
"This isn't because Zhu Gaoxi had nothing better to do. It's mainly because someone bewitched him into doing this.”
"Who bewitched my son to do this? If you tell me, I'll go and kill him right now!”
Zhu Di was furious when he heard that Zhu Gaoxi's rebellion was bewitched!
His entire body was filled with killing intent. Not only did he lose his temperament, but he even had the demeanor of the later Emperor Yong Le.
"Are you sure you can kill anyone?”
Fang Yunfei glanced at Zhu Di.
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
Zhu Di said confidently.
According to the timeline after his success in Jingnan, the only people who could have incited Gao Xi to rebel were those close to him, which was the old ministers of King Yan's Mansion.
How could Zhu Di not kill a few guards of the Imperial Residence?
Fang Yunfei, you look down on this king too much!
"In that case…"
Fang Yunfei stood up and pouted at Zhu Di,""Then please kill yourself, Your Highness!"
"Suicide? Fang Yunfei, what do you mean? Why would this king commit suicide?"
Zhu Di was shocked by Fang Yunfei's words on the spot!
This King wants to kill, not commit suicide!
Why should I commit suicide?
"Your Highness, didn't you say that you wanted to kill the person who instigated Zhu Gaoxi to rebel? The person who bewitched Zhu Gaoxi to rebel was you, Prince Yan!”
"Is there a problem with me asking you to commit suicide?”
Fang Yunfei said innocently.
"What is it? This king? Why would this king destroy his own son?”
"Mr. Fang, you're wrong, aren't you? When Gao Xi's nephew rebelled, even his elder brother died. How could it be his fourth brother?”
"Kid Fang, don't talk nonsense. If Fourth wanted Gao Xi to ascend the throne, why would he need to bewitch him to rebel? Why not just pass the throne to him?”
When he heard Fang Yunfei say that he had bewitched his son to rebel, Zhu Di exploded.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao shook their heads repeatedly, thinking that this statement was simply ridiculous!
If the fourth brother really wanted the second son to take over the throne, although it would take some twists and turns, it would not be very troublesome.
As long as he ignored the rumors and Berserker language, he only needed an imperial edict.
Why did it need to be so complicated?
Little Fang/Mr. Fang couldn't be muddle-headed, right?
"Don't doubt me. Do you still remember what I said just now? In the fourth year of Jianwen, the King of Yan was surrounded by the imperial army and was finally rescued by Zhu Gaoxi?”
"I remember."
"It's good that you remember! The bad thing was that the King of Yan liked to talk big.”Fang Yunfei slapped his thigh and said.
"Although Fourth Brother doesn't always speak the truth, what's the relationship between these two things?”
Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard and said.
Zhu Di was a big mouth. As a father, he knew very well that he liked to make random promises sometimes.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang really couldn't figure out what this had to do with Zhu Gaoxi's rebellion decades later.
"According to historical records, after Zhu Gaoxi rescued the King of Yan from the siege, the King of Yan patted Zhu Gaoxi on the back and encouraged him to continue fighting bravely.”
"Isn't this normal? Kid Fang, what are you trying to say?”Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.
Was it a problem for a father to say this to save his son after surviving a disaster?
No problem at all!
Fang brat, are you nitpicking?
"This sentence is very normal. The worst thing was that the King of Yan said another sentence!”
"What did Fourth Bro say?"
Fang Yunfei thought for a moment and tried to imitate Zhu Di's tone."The prince is sick, you should encourage him!”
As soon as he said this, the hall of the Embroidered Uniform Guards fell into a strange silence.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Di in surprise.
Zhu Di's face was also pale and green. He was so embarrassed that he dug out a courtyard house from the ground.
The prince is often ill. You should encourage him!
This sentence translated into the vernacular,"Your big brother's health is very poor, and he may die at any time." As a younger brother, you have to work hard!」。
This wasn't even a hint, this was an indication!
Any normal person with emotions and desires would have some thoughts when they heard this sentence.
Not to mention Zhu Gaoxi, who was good at fighting and had high aspirations!
Wasn't this seducing people to rebel?
