Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 300 Shen Wansan: Zhu Ying is the eldest grandson of the emperor! Shen Wansan has gone mad!

"princess."

"There is also an imperial edict."

"It concerns the reform of the Royal Guard."

The head eunuch then spoke very respectfully to Liu Yu'er.

"Now that the eldest grandson of the emperor has regained his status, his three thousand personal guards will be reorganized into the royal guards."

"From now on."

"The personal guards will all be paid according to the royal guard's salary."

"Furthermore, all the imperial guards have changed into royal guard armor. In addition, the eldest grandson of the emperor will travel in a six-horse carriage, with the rites due to a prince." The head eunuch said with a smile, very respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I understand." Liu Yu'er nodded immediately.

"Your Highness, Princess Consort."

"This is the plaque of the Prince's Mansion."

"There is also the imperial carriage outside, and three thousand sets of royal guard armor."

"They have all been delivered."

The eunuch said respectfully.

"Xiao Han."

"Bring in all the rewards along with your personal guard."

Liu Yu'er immediately said to Xiao Han.

The latter calmed himself down and bowed deeply to Liu Yu'er, saying excitedly, "Your subordinate obeys."

immediately.

Xiao Han immediately led his personal guards out of the mansion.

Liu Yu'er walked towards the plaque covered by a red cloth, pulled it open, and revealed four characters.

Prince Yu Huai's Mansion!

"Brother Xiong Ying, you've finally regained your identity."

Looking at the plaque, tears welled up in the eyes of both Xu Miaojin and Mu Ya.

"Miss."

"Please come with me to see the king's carriage."

The eunuch who delivered the imperial decree respectfully led the way.

See this.

Liu Yu'er nodded, then looked at Xu Miaojin and Mu Ya beside her.

"My two sisters, let's go see the imperial carriage that the Emperor bestowed upon our husband," Liu Yu'er said gently.

"Yes."

The two women nodded immediately.

Subsequently.

Lin Fu immediately called out to the servants in the mansion, "Carry these imperial gifts into the inner palace."

"Yes."

The servants respectfully responded and began to carry.

Outside the mansion.

This time, the procession was enormous. The Imperial Guards personally escorted dozens of carriages, which carried not only imperial gifts but also three thousand sets of royal guard armor.

But outside the mansion.

At the very front was a royal carriage drawn by six warhorses. Unlike ordinary carriages, this carriage, as the royal carriage, had its roof and the entire carriage body made of iron, which could withstand strong bows and crossbows.

Such was the standard for royal processions.

Looking at this magnificent imperial entourage, it's clear that it was only recently made, which gives you an idea of ​​how long Zhu Yuanzhang had waited for this day.

Everything was prepared for his grandson.

"My husband is actually the eldest grandson of the emperor."

Looking at the Prince's imperial carriage before her, Liu Yu'er still found it difficult to calm down.

after all.

This feeling is too hard to describe.

"My two younger sisters."

"Did you recognize your husband back then?"

Liu Yu'er turned her head and looked at Xu Miaojin and the other woman.

"elder sister."

"My sister wouldn't dare to lie to me."

"The moment we first saw my husband in the palace, we both recognized him as Brother Xiong Ying," Xu Miaojin replied gently.

“When we were little, we used to be with Brother Xiong Ying.”

"Back then, we were thinking of marrying Brother Xiong Ying," Mu Ya replied truthfully.

"No wonder."

"At first, I was very curious. With the family background of my two younger sisters, they could have married anyone they wanted in the entire Ming Dynasty. Why did they only choose my husband? I originally thought it was because of my husband's heroic spirit, but I never expected it to be for this reason."

"And the current emperor actually granted it."

"Now I understand completely," Liu Yu'er said with great emotion.

"elder sister."

“We are a family, and we shouldn’t have kept this from you, but my grandfather instructed that this matter is very important and we must wait for him to announce it in person.”

"Moreover, we must use this incident to find the murderer who harmed my husband in the past."

“Now that my husband’s identity has been revealed, the murderer must have been found as well,” Mu Ya replied with some shame.

“My husband contracted smallpox back then, and even the Empress herself contracted smallpox and died while taking care of him. We must find the culprit,” Xu Miaojin said.

Hearing what the two were saying, Liu Yu'er nodded without getting angry: "I understand what you are saying. We're family, so we don't need to be formal. Now that you've both married, you're family."

"Thank you for your understanding, sister."

The two women immediately thanked them.

And this moment.

Outside the mansion.

With such a large commotion, a considerable number of onlookers have already gathered.

"What's going on at the Duke's mansion today? So many imperial guards and so many carriages?"

"Could this be another reward from the Emperor to the Duke?"

"Definitely."

"Given the Duke's military achievements in destroying the Northern Yuan for our Great Ming Dynasty, any reward he receives is worthwhile."

"It must be due to the Emperor's boundless grace."

……

Many people started discussing it, filled with curiosity.

but.

For many ordinary people, whatever reward Zhu Ying received seemed to be what he deserved.

After all, he is one of only two heroes in history to have achieved the feat of sealing the wolf's lair and residing in the Xiongnu territory.

And this time!
"Hahaha."

"You've got it wrong."

"I just heard some big news, did you guys know?"

"The Duke of Wu, Zhu Ying, is actually the eldest grandson of the emperor, Zhu Xiong Ying, who died of smallpox back then!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

The surrounding crowd erupted in excitement, all turning their gazes toward the person who had spoken.

You dare joke about this?

"This concerns the royal family, so don't talk nonsense."

"How many years has the eldest grandson of the emperor passed away? And how could the Duke of Wu possibly have any connection with the eldest grandson of the emperor?"

"That's impossible."

"Yes."

"You can't just spread this news around like that."

"..."

Countless people around were filled with doubt, clearly not believing the news.

"Did you see that? The royal carriage is parked in front of the Duke's mansion, and it's brand new. Didn't you see that the Duke's personal guards have already driven it away?"

"Let me tell you."

"A major event has occurred in the court today. The current emperor announced that the eldest grandson of the emperor, who died of smallpox years ago, has been found. However, thanks to the protection of heaven, the eldest grandson of the emperor did not die. Instead, the empress arranged for him to live among the common people. He is none other than Zhu Ying, the Duke of Wu."

"Oh my God."

"His Highness the Crown Prince is the Duke of Wu? How is that possible?"

……

As the news spread, and not just by one person, but by many others, the idea that Zhu Ying was the eldest grandson of the emperor quickly spread throughout Yingtian.

no doubt.

This is absolutely like news of a nuclear explosion.

After all, there were so many officials in the court today. Once the court session ended, the news would naturally spread like wildfire.

Moreover, one can imagine that when the official proclamation is issued, the entire Ming Dynasty will be in an uproar.

The news that a general who rose from humble beginnings to achieve great military exploits and fought valiantly on the battlefield was actually the former eldest grandson of the emperor was shocking even to hear.

the other side!
Heaven Prison.

"Get inside."

“All members of the Lü family shall be put in shackles.”

"Go in."

"Don't block the way, or I'll give you a whipping."

"Give them a good beating."

Many imperial guards were seen personally escorting them, holding whips and lashing out at the Lü family members.

As a family of high-ranking officials, and with Lady Lü once being a high-ranking concubine in the Eastern Palace, the Lü family naturally had a large and prosperous population.

But at this moment, they have all become prisoners.

After learning about the crimes committed by the Lü family.

The Imperial Guards and the jailers of the Heavenly Prison showed no mercy, whipping and beating the prisoners mercilessly.

"Ah...ah..."

"Forgive me."

"It's unjust."

"Spare my life..."

The hundreds of members of the Lü family let out cries of agony, and the entire prison was filled with screams of agony.

Where is Lü Ben's son?

This time!

Lan Yu led a group of fierce generals from Huaixi into the prison, each carrying a wooden root, looking menacing.

The imperial guards escorting the dozen or so generals in the prison also showed them great respect.

"Reporting to Duke Liang, Lü Ben's sons are all imprisoned deep in the imperial prison. Please come down with me."

"A commander of the Imperial Guards said respectfully."

Now that Zhu Ying's identity has been revealed, the Imperial Guards in the palace naturally received the news quickly, and the status of Lan Yu and the others naturally rose accordingly, especially Lan Yu and Chang Mao, who, as the maternal uncle and maternal uncle of the current eldest grandson of the emperor, need no further explanation.

No one dares to offend them.

Guided by the commander of the Imperial Guard.

Lan Yu and other fierce generals were taken directly to the depths of the Heavenly Prison.

"The Duke of Liang, Lü Ben's five sons are all inside."

"On this side are Lü Ben's dozen or so grandchildren."

"On the other side were Lü Ben's daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law."

"Almost all of Lü Ben's relatives have been captured, and now his entire extended family is on its way," the Imperial Guard said, pointing to the prison ahead.

Who is in this prison?

Lan Yu glanced around and noticed a prison next to Lü Ben's many sons.

"Reporting to the Duke of Liang."

"Shen Wansan, along with his son and grandson, are imprisoned here."

"As for their entire collateral relatives, they are imprisoned in the outer layer," a jailer in the imperial prison replied respectfully.

"Shen Wansan?"

Upon hearing this, Lan Yu also revealed a cold smile.

but.

There's no rush to provoke Shen Wansan right now.

"Open the cell door for me."

Lan Yu raised his hand and pointed to the cell where Lü Ben's sons were being held.

"Yes."

The commander of the Imperial Guard waved his hand.

A constable with a key immediately stepped forward and quickly opened the cell door.

into the eye.

All five of Lü Ben's sons were bound in shackles and collapsed to the ground in great pain.

"Brothers."

Lan Yu raised the stick in his hand and shouted loudly.

"exist."

Chang Mao and many other fierce generals from Huaixi spoke in unison.

“The Lü family killed my niece, killed the Empress, and caused my grandnephew to live in exile for more than ten years.”

"These grudges and hatreds must not be allowed to end so easily."

"Break their arms and legs, but don't kill them. Let them know the pain."

"I'll make them suffer terribly," Lan Yu said coldly.

Then they rushed straight into the cell.

He raised the stick in his hand and struck Lü Ben's son, Lü Hao.

There was a snap.

The sound of bones cracking.

"what……"

Lu Hao let out a scream, his entire face contorted in pain.

"Spare me...spare me!"

“It was all my father’s doing, he did it all.”

"We have no idea."

"what……"

Lu Hao screamed in agony, begging for mercy frantically.

However, all of this is naturally quite ridiculous.

At this point.

That will be the moment they pay the price.

"Make them feel pain, beat them."

Chang Mao shouted and rushed in, stick in hand.

The fierce generals of Huaixi also took out their sticks and attacked Lü Ben's sons, striking them hard, targeting their hands and feet, avoiding vital organs, but inflicting pain on them.

"The Imperial Guards and the jailers of the Heavenly Prison."

"Don't say I, Lan Yu, am being impolite."

"From today onwards, you may enjoy the women of the Lü family as you see fit, as long as they live before being executed."

"Also, break the arms and legs of all the male members of the Lü family. Beat them once a day, just make sure they don't die."

"If anything happens, I, Lan Yu, will take responsibility."

Looking at Lü Ben's many sons screaming in agony, Lan Yu was still not satisfied, so he shouted at the imperial guards and yamen runners outside the prison.

Hear this.

Many of the imperial guards were also intrigued, as were the yamen runners in the imperial prison.

The Lü family is a very prominent family.

The women in their family are all incredibly beautiful.

In particular, the wives and concubines of Lü Ben's sons.

Furthermore, this time they were acting on Lan Yu's orders to torment the Lü family, so what were they afraid of?
"Thank you, Duke Liang."

"Brothers, let's not let the Duke down."

"Go on."

"First, cripple all the male members of the Lü family."

"Don't let these women get away either..."

Suddenly.

The screams inside the prison intensified.

revenge!

This was Lan Yu's revenge: revenge for his niece, revenge for the Empress, and even revenge for his grandnephew.

Whether it was Zhu Xiong Ying or Zhu Yun Tong.

The hatred that the Lü family inflicted on them must be made to pay the price, so that they will not find peace even in death.

The screams continued.

Meanwhile, in the adjacent prison.

Shen Wansan and his sons leaned listlessly against the wall. Compared to the miserable state of the Lü family, although the Shen family was doomed, it was still much better than the Lü family.

At this moment.

Lan Yu had already reached the prison gate when a yamen runner respectfully opened it.

"Shen Wansan".

"long time no see."

When Lan Yu saw Shen Wansan sitting in the corner, his hair completely white, he couldn't help but smile.

"Duke of Liang...?"

Upon seeing Lan Yu, Shen Wansan was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly climbed to Lan Yu's side.

"Duke Liang."

"My Shen family is related by marriage to the generals under your command in Huaixi. I beg the Duke of Liang to save my Shen family."

"My Shen family is willing to pay any price."

Upon seeing Lan Yu, Shen Wansan seemed to regain his will to live and hurriedly pleaded.

His sons, too, watched with anticipation.

"You want the Duke to save your Shen family?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"He attempted to assassinate the grand-nephew of this country's Duke and plotted to kill the eldest grandson of the Great Ming Emperor."

"His Majesty only issued an edict to exterminate your entire Shen family, not nine generations. This is already a great favor," Lan Yu said with a cold smile.

"What grand-nephew? What eldest grandson of the emperor?"

Shen Wansan was taken aback and looked at Lan Yu with confusion.

He hired Zhu Ying to assassinate him.

"Shen Wansan".

"Zhu Ying is the grand-nephew of this Duke."

"Moreover, he is not only that, he is also the current emperor's grandson and the eldest son of the current crown prince, Zhu Xiong Ying."

"Who can save you from the crime you've committed?"

Lan Yu squatted down and said with a cold smile.
