However, even the Prime Minister had to answer the Emperor's question.
Hu Weiyong's face turned red at that time. He racked his brains and said,"I, I didn't manage my subordinates strictly, causing my subordinates to deal with Chen Youliang and the other remnants inappropriately…"
At this point, Hu Weiyong felt as uncomfortable as he could.
It was too difficult for him to find his own mistakes.
If he said it seriously, he would be shooting himself in the foot. However, if he said it lightly, it would seem like he was handling the matter.
In the end, he thought of such a big or small sin.
Chen Youliang and the rest of the remaining evil forces had to be eliminated. However, it had been more than ten years since the founding of the country. Those remaining evil forces had long been useless. This would definitely be a long-term matter.
However, it didn't really matter what he got rid of.
The important thing was that Zhu Yuanzhang had to go with the flow.
Now, Hu Weiyong already had some guesses. It seemed that Zhu Yuanzhang was really dissatisfied with his power recently.
That was why he had thought of finding trouble with him in the imperial court and attacking his prestige in front of the officials.
He wanted to let the ministers know that no matter how much power the Prime Minister had, he still had to work for the Emperor…
Then this was easy to handle.
As long as she followed his wishes, she would lose face in front of the ministers…
It was just that…as the Prime Minister, he had to be reprimanded in front of everyone. It was really a little aggrieved.
Zhu Yuanzhang had always been a monarch who would not go back on his word. At this moment, although he felt a little aggrieved, Hu Weiyong still did not dare to show it.
He only lowered his head and admitted his mistake…
On the other side, Liu Bowen was also in the court. However, like before, he was a wooden figure. He just watched coldly and did not say anything.
When he saw Hu Weiyong kneeling on the ground, he sighed slightly.
It seemed that they were starting to suppress the meritorious officials.
He knew Zhu Yuanzhang very well. He knew that he would not tolerate others holding power. After the founding of the country, he would definitely take action.
This was something that he had long expected. That was why he decided to be a blockhead.
However, if he wanted to punish them, then so be it. No matter what, someone had to do it for the Prime Minister. Now, it should be a small punishment and a big warning. There would not be any changes to the structure of the court.
Besides…
He had long since drifted away from the court, and this matter actually had nothing to do with him. At that moment, he just looked down and continued to be his blockhead.
However…
Zhu Yuanzhang noticed Liu Bowen's expression and sneered in his heart.
Was he still pretending to be dead?
I wonder what kind of expression you will have when you see that I'm going to completely abolish the position of Prime Minister?
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Weiyong who was kneeling on the ground and said,"" Chen Youliang's remnant should be slowly arrested by the local authorities. It's none of your business…"
"Then…"
Hu Weiyong was stunned.
It had nothing to do with him? Then what do you mean?
Most importantly, why aren't you a donkey under the slope? Why are you still interrogating me?
What the hell was going on…
"Hu Weiyong, what's the matter with you treating the envoy of Champa City so slowly?”
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Hu Weiyong and said coldly.
" This…That's because the Ministry of Rites didn't report it in time…"
Hu Weiyong was sweating profusely.
The matter of the Champa envoy was a joke.
Champa admired the might of the Ming Empire and sent people from afar to meet them.
According to the rules of the Ming Empire, when foreign envoys came to visit, they had to be properly received by the nobles. However, for some reason, no one cared about this Champa envoy.
Moreover, when they arrived in the capital, they occasionally saw the Confucian Temple and realized that it was even more magnificent than the Imperial Palace of Champa. Thus, they wanted to enter and pay their respects to the Ming Emperor.
This gave the people at the Confucian Temple a fright.
He hurriedly reported this news to the palace.
This greatly affected Da Ming's image…
However, when Zhu Yuanzhang heard his explanation, he sneered,
"Ministry of Rites? Hehe, I've already sent someone to investigate. The Ministry of Rites has already informed you of the news, but you've never asked. This is the bottom line. What do you have to say?”
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang threw down a memorial.
Hu Weiyong picked up the memorial and his face turned ashen.
Indeed…
This memorial showed that the Ministry of Rites had already reported the news. Logically speaking, he should be the one making the arrangements.
Usually, the officials below would help to deal with these matters.
But for some reason, no one cared about those envoys.
This matter could be big or small…
The Champa envoy itself was nothing much. After all, Champa was just a small country. It was nothing much. However, this was related to the integrity of the entire Ming Dynasty!
What was even worse was that Zhu Yuanzhang was actually going to be on top now!
"I…know my sins!"
Hu Weiyong gritted his teeth and admitted his guilt. If he continued to quibble, the scene would be even uglier.
He might as well admit his guilt.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang finally smiled coldly and threw a stack of memorials down. He said coldly,"Hu Weiyong, I wouldn't know if I didn't see you. It was because of this envoy that I took a good look at what you usually do.”
"After this investigation, I found out that Hu Weiyong, you are really a good prime minister!”
"Only now do I know that as the Prime Minister of a dynasty, you actually don't think about solving the country's worries. You formed cliques for personal gain, planted your trusted aides, and took bribes. Do you know your crimes?”
