Gada gada!
The carriage traveled on the street and soon arrived in front of a mansion.
"Lord Marquis, we've arrived!" The servant driving the carriage said.”
A person opened the curtain and walked out. His face was fierce and his body was strong. It was Marquis Ji An, Lu Zhongheng!
There were two words written on the plaque of the mansion in front of him: The Hu Residence!
This was the residence of the current Right Prime Minister, Hu Weiyong.
"Go and call the door."
"Yes, sir!"
Pa, pa, pa!
When the gatekeeper saw that it was Lu Zhongheng, he hurriedly welcomed him in and sent him to the central hall. He arranged for the servants to feed the carriage and did not dare to be negligent.
"Prime Minister!"
In the central hall.
Hu Weiyong sat on the main seat. Lu Zhongheng cupped his fists and shouted.
"May I know why Lord Marquis has come to visit?”
"Prime Minister, do you know? Jiang Xiahou, his son, and the servants in the mansion had all been captured and thrown into the imperial prison!”
"I know!"
"Then why are you still indifferent?"
"What do you want me to do?"
"Why don't we report to the Emperor and ask him to spare Zhou Dexing's life on account of his previous contributions?" Lu Zhongheng said.”
"Zhou Dexing isn't someone like Fu Youde.”
"He was there when the emperor left He Prefecture to select the twenty-four generals.”
"And then?" Hu Weiyong was indifferent.
"Are we just going to watch the emperor kill him?”
"Didn't you just lose a battle? How can there be an ever-victorious general in this world!"
"In the fifth year of Hongwu, didn't Xu Da lose to Wang Baobao?”
Lu Zhongheng's words were filled with dissatisfaction.
Hu Weiyong watched quietly. He knew very well that Lu Zhongheng didn't really want to save Zhou Dexing. He just wanted to use this to express his dissatisfaction.
Of the brothers of Old Ying, the 24 generals of Huaixi back then, there were indeed not many who had died!
"Not only did he lose the battle, he also deceived the emperor!" Hu Weiyong said coldly.”
"Then..."
Lu Zhongheng wanted to say that so what, but in the end, he shut his mouth and didn't say anything.
Hu Weiyong handed him an imperial edict.""This was just issued by the emperor to the ceremonial supervisor. Because of Zhou Dexing, the system of amnesty that has been passed down since ancient times was abolished.”
"Can you feel the emperor's anger?”
Lu Zhongheng sat on the chair.”
"I advise you not to do anything and just pretend that you don't know about this."”
"Otherwise, you might also be implicated!”
"The emperor is no longer the one who walked out of the old camp.”
"He has the heavenly law in his mouth. He is a person who has taken over the imperial power from the monk bowl!”
"Such a person is the only one in history!"
"His pride and self-esteem are also far stronger than any of the previous emperors!”
"So, Marquis Ji An ~"
"Don't try to provoke me in this aspect. You're not that important!”
"Humph!" Lu Zhongheng smashed his fist on the table, shaking the teacup.
After a long while, he finally spoke the truth,"My position as commander has also been removed.”
"The emperor is too heartless!"
Hu Weiyong's eyes flashed as he called for the servants to serve drinks and snacks.""Yunqi, you may leave!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Lord Marquis," he said as he raised a cup of wine.
"There are some words that come out of your mouth and enter my ears.”
"Do you understand?"
"Yes!" Lu Zhongheng used his nose to stutter and raised his glass."Come, drink!"
Hanlin Academy, Central Hall.
Chancellor Kong Zhao sat in the middle hall, holding a book in his hands and reading with great interest. Sometimes, he even slapped the table and exclaimed,""Good!"
Of course, he was not reading the Peach Blossom Fan.
The Peach Blossom Fan had already been listed as a forbidden book in the Imperial Academy and the Imperial College. Once it was discovered, it had to be handed over immediately!
If anyone dared to hide it, they would definitely be ostracized!
He was reading the book that the Imperial Academy had just written to persuade farmers!
"This sentence…These few sentences are all very well written!"
"It's easy to read and gives people a majestic force!”
"Alright!"
"I dare to guarantee that if this letter of advice to farmers is sent to the palace, the emperor will definitely be very happy!”
"When the time comes, you and I will soar.”
"Thank you for your nurturing, Chancellor!" The Hanlin Academy below said in unison.”
One of them was called Zhou Jin.”
"Yan Donglou was beheaded for deceiving the emperor."
"The Emperor has decreed that his head be buried under the steps leading to the Imperial Academy!”
"And marked with a clear slate.”
"All scholars must step on it a few times when they enter the academy!”
One could imagine how much Zhu Yuanzhang hated this official!
"We are all subjects of the Son of Heaven," said Kong Zhao."The Emperor's orders cannot be disobeyed.”
"Where's the head?"
"The Embroidered Uniform Guards have marinated it and sent it over."
"Did he die peacefully?"
" Uh..." Zhou Jin replied," No, he was dumbfounded. His head was stiff and his face was full of hatred. He really died with grievances!"”
"I want to…"
"He must have seen something before he died that made him so unwilling.”
"Unwilling?" Another scholar said," If you ask me, perhaps it's not because I saw something. It's because I don't know who that Liao Zhai is. That's why I died with my eyes wide open!"”
At the mention of Liao Zhai, everyone fell silent for a moment before they began to criticize him.
"That person is really detestable!"
"As a scholar, you always make things difficult for our Hanlin Academy!”
"Du Shiniang, Peach Blossom Fan, this has been twice!”
"Isn't he just a storyteller?”
"You only know how to hide behind people's backs and expose their shortcomings!”
"What are you showing off for?"
One of them couldn't stand it." You can't say that. He still has quite a bit of weight in the hearts of the people."”
"I say, whose side are you on?"
"Who are you speaking up for?"
"They're just some punks, what weight do they have?”
"Wen Yanbo once said that the world is shared by the monarch and the scholar-bureaucrats, not the common people!”
"If the matter of the soldiers and doctors of Liaozhai were to be written into a book for the common people to pass time, it would really be an insult to the cultured and ungrateful people!”
"In the former Song Dynasty, this was a capital offense!”
"Now, it's good that our Hanlin Academy's reputation is ruined!”
"If I were to find out who he is, I would definitely argue with him face to face, imitate Zhuge Kongming, and curse Wang Lang to death!!”
Everyone was criticizing Liao Zhai, so the scholar in the middle couldn't say anything else.
Hanlin Chancellor Kong Zhao looked at the book in his hand and suddenly thought,""Eh?"
"Tell me."
"If I report to the Emperor and ask Liao Zhai to write a book to persuade farmers ~"
"When the time comes, will we be able to beat him…"
"What about a crushing defeat?"
