There was a long silence.
"Fourth Bro, you're still young and don't know the dangers of the world.”
Zhu Yuanzhang sat upright and said unhurriedly,
"I've read the memorial you handed to me and sent someone to investigate.”
"Su Bai, you have a good reputation, a good relationship with people, and you have the ability to educate people. As for what I told you, it was clear and not nonsense.”
"Other than his preference for listening to music, he doesn't have any obvious flaws."
When he heard this, Zhu Di suddenly raised his head, his fervent eyes filled with excitement.
Did the old man listen to his advice?
Was he planning to pardon Mr. Smith?
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's next words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
"However, his family background is not good!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression turned cold and he said without a doubt,"
"The wildfire will not burn, and the spring breeze will blow again. The clansmen of corrupt officials and cruel officials cannot be left alive!”
Zhu Di was shocked when he heard this. He could not even kneel properly.
"Father!"
"Mr. Smith's family background is not good, but those who commit crimes are all members of his family, and they are distant relatives who have nothing to do with him!”
"Didn't Imperial Father already investigate?”
"How can you accuse a good person!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head slightly. He was ready to restore his father's dignity.
"Fourth Brother, I hope you can understand that a country has its laws and a family has its rules.”
"Don't think that just because you're our son, you can ignore the law!”
"Your treasonous words are enough for you to die several times over, do you know that?”
Zhu Yuanzhang shouted,
"Because you're our son. We can't kill you!”
"Of course, the death penalty can be avoided, but the crime can't be avoided!”
"You're already in danger, yet you're still pleading for others?”
Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's sharp rebuke, Zhu Di opened his mouth, but he could not say a word.
"To be honest, I was very happy when I read your memorial yesterday. I thought that our fourth brother had finally grown up.”
Zhu Yuanzhang continued,
"I also thought of pardoning Su Bai, but in the end, you put on such a show for me today. I'm so disappointed!”
"You're too capable. You're scolding your father with an outsider!”
"We've raised you up in luxury. Did we raise a wolf cub?!”
Walking up to Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang looked down and said coldly,"
"I want you to remember this forever.”
"Because of you, Su Bai was killed!!”
"I hope that in the future, every time you get impulsive, you will remember what happened today and always remind yourself to watch your mouth!”
The moment he finished speaking, there was complete silence.
The hall was deathly silent.
Even Zhu Biao was starting to feel uneasy. If Empress Ma hadn't given him a hint in time, he would've lost his balance long ago.
Zhu Yuanzhang's acting skills were too good.
He was an old performing artist!
After reorganizing his emotions, Zhu Biao looked at the dazed Zhu Di and sighed.
After experiencing this incident, Ling must have grown up completely.
"Father!"
Zhu Di raised his head helplessly and said with grief and indignation,
"Your son really knows his mistake. Please spare Mr. Su!”
"It's all your son's fault for being insensible and always making Imperial Father angry. Your son promises that I won't dare to do it again!”
" Please have mercy, Father!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang placed his hands behind his back. He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually smiling in his heart.
He had vented his anger!
One had to know that Zhu Di had been infuriating since he was young. It was simply impossible to describe it with words!
He would not listen even if he was beaten and scolded.
He relied on his big brother and his mother to spoil him and did not put him, his father, in their eyes at all!
Pure meat!
Today, with Su Bai's help, he solved another big problem. It was wonderful!
"Enough!"
Ignoring the pleas in his ears, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said,"
"Men, take this unfilial son back to the imperial prison and continue to reflect!”
"You can come out when you've thought it through. If you can't think it through in your lifetime, then don't come out in your lifetime!”
After a pause, Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Zhu Biao and said,
"Boss, come with us. Don't worry about him!”
After saying that, he left the hall in a tiger's stride.
Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment, but he could only hurriedly follow.
Despite the cries coming from behind, he did not even turn his head.
After the father and son left,
Empress Ma became Zhu Di's last hope.
He hugged his mother's thigh and cried,"
"Mother!"
"Mister Su really can't die. If Mister Su dies, Big Ming can't be saved!!”
"I've already written down all the contents of Mr. Su's lecture in the memorial. Why won't Father listen to my advice!”
"I beg you, Mother, don't let Imperial Father mess around!”
Empress Ma gently stroked her son's back. Her brows were filled with heartache, but she still could not bear to say,
"Alright, as a man, it's a good thing to know your mistakes and change.”
"Listen to mother and go back first. Don't go and get into trouble again.”
"Leave this to Mother to handle. You perform well over there. Perhaps one day, your father will be happy and let the two of you out.”
"You and your father are the same. Both of you are stubborn, and each one is more stubborn than the other.”
After listening to Empress Ma's words, Zhu Di finally received some comfort. He nodded solemnly.
"Yes, your child will remember!"
"Mother, don't forget, you must stop Imperial Father!”
Empress Ma pulled Zhu Di to stand up and helped her son to brush the footprints on his buttocks. She said gently,"
"Mother knows. Let's go quickly. Your father will be angry again when he comes back.”
Zhu Di wanted to say something but hesitated. He bowed and followed behind the guard.
Watching his back gradually disappear into the distance, Empress Ma let out a long sigh and shook her head helplessly.
"None of these three are easy to deal with!”
...
......
In another corner of the palace.
Zhu Yuanzhang brought Zhu Biao to the outer hall.
As soon as the father and son entered the door, he instructed impatiently,
"Boss, go get us an imperial edict.”
"Ah?"
Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment and didn't understand what he meant.
"What does Imperial Father want the imperial edict for?"
"What else can we do?"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and rolled his eyes at Zhu Biao.
"Fourth Bro's sins are over, but ours aren't!”
Zhu Yuanzhang pounded his chest and stamped his feet, looking very annoyed.
"Officials and gentry don't pay taxes. They're really f * cking stupid!”
"You have to pay taxes for us in the future. Not only do you have to pay, but you have to pay more!”
"Eh? Tell me, what was I thinking at that time? Was my brain really damaged by the door?”
Zhu Biao was speechless.
