In the Eastern Palace.
A person sat on the main hall's steps. The chair was gilded with gold and carved with dragons. Beside him were two bronze crane elixirs, and they spat out smoke.
If a new official were to come here, he would definitely be shocked because the arrangement here was exactly the same as that of the Hall of Heaven's Tribute. It was obvious that Zhu Yuanzhang had given Zhu Biao special treatment!
Zhu Biao was indeed the most stable Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty.
At this moment, he was holding a red pen and reading the memorial.
"Zhejiang is in trouble again!”
Zhu Biao frowned slightly. He felt as if he had eaten a pile of shit.
These pirates were not a match for the Ming army, but they came and went without a trace. After sweeping through the villages and towns by the sea, they immediately withdrew and did not linger in the battle.
Zhejiang's water network was crisscrossed, which was not conducive to cavalry.
When the Ming army arrived, they had already left.
Last year, Tang He had trained 200,000 Japanese soldiers according to the navy's standards. They had only been stable for a year, and it was here again!
Humph!
Zhu Biao threw the memorial to the side. If there were no spies, these pirates would never be able to come and go without a trace!
A few days ago, someone submitted a memorial to the imperial court.
Zhu Biao was a kind-hearted person. He knew that it was difficult to leave their homeland. Forcibly moving the people to within 20 miles of the coast would obviously cause a lot of dissatisfaction and even cause bloodshed!
Unless it was absolutely necessary, he absolutely did not want to do this.
"Ah ~"
Zhu Biao sighed. In his position, he really couldn't relax at all times.。
"Crown Prince ~"
"Chen Hong? What's wrong?"
"This servant left the palace some time ago and saw a good book, so I bought it to present to the crown prince.”
"The crown prince reads through the memorials every day. It's tiring…"
Before he could finish, Zhu Biao waved his hand and interrupted him."Storybook?"
"Who allowed you to do this?"
"I am under the imperial edict to supervise the country and shoulder the burden of thousands of people. I don't dare to slack off at all, afraid that I will betray my father's trust and harass the wishes of the people!”
"How can I indulge in the story?”
Chen Hong fell to his knees with a thud.
"The people from the Imperial Academy of Medicine said that the Crown Prince's mood was somewhat disturbed after reading the memorials and needed to find something to guide him.”
"This servant serves me every day, so I can see this more clearly. That's why I took the initiative to buy a storybook.”
"This servant did not deliberately offer you a wonderful item. I just hope that the Crown Prince can relieve the depression in his heart in his spare time ~"
"Please investigate, Crown Prince."
After hearing Chen Hong's heartfelt words, Zhu Biao was silent for a moment and said,""Get up. Don't be like this in the future.”
"This servant is worried about the crown prince's health…"
"Alright, stop talking. You can go down!”
"Yes, sir!"
After Chen Hong left, he continued to read the memorials. He went back and forth for another four hours. When he was finally done reading the memorials, he stretched his back and stretched his neck.
"Awesome!"
Zhu Biao sat on the chair and looked at the script. He picked it up curiously."Du Shiniang sank the treasure chest in anger?"
"Someone, bring some snacks."
"Yes, sir!"
Zhu Biao leaned back on the dragon chair, holding the storybook and eating snacks, enjoying this rare and pleasant time. Soon, the story of the storybook attracted him.
When he saw Li Jia gnashing his teeth in hatred after being persuaded, and when he saw Du Shiniang throw all the things worth 100,000 taels of silver into the surging river, he couldn't help but praise her.
Seeing Du Shiniang jump into the river to show her ambition, she felt a little regretful ~
In the end, when he saw that Li Jia had changed his appearance and continued to be an official in the imperial court, he was so angry that his temples hurt."How can such scum remain in our Great Ming Dynasty?”
"Chen Hong ~"
"This servant is here!"
"Go to the Ministry of Rites and get the imperial examination list for the sixth year of Hongwu. I want to read it!”
"Yes, sir!"
Who dared to disobey the Crown Prince's decree?
Soon, the list of the imperial examinations was sent to the palace. Zhu Biao took a look. He was from Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, and he was one of the top three scholars.
Li Jia ~
Humph!
He didn't even change his name completely. Who was he fooling?
"Send a letter to Jinhua's magistrate as soon as possible and ask him if there's such a thing." Zhu Biao sneered.
Hanlin Academy.
Li Jia ran to the Chancellor's residence in a panic and knelt at the door, kowtowing to the ground.""Lord Chancellor, please save me!"
The Chancellor's name was Kong Zhao, he was a member of the Duke of Evolution's Kong family!
Yan Shenggong was a first-grade official. Although he did not hold any position in the six tribes, he was like a local emperor in Qufu. In Li Jia's heart, there was nothing he could not solve.
"What's wrong?"
With a creaking sound, a person walked out.
He had white hair and was wearing a cloak. His every move had the charm of an old scholar."What are you panicking about?"
Li Jia told him the whole story in detail.
Kong Zhao frowned slightly and stared into his eyes.""Was that script referring to you?"
"Yes ~"
"Let me ask you again. Was that supposed to be you? It's not slander?"
Li Jia was about to admit it when he suddenly understood what Kong Zhao meant. He immediately kowtowed and said,"Lord, please save me!"
"He deliberately used my homonym to change Li Jia to Li Jia, and wrote the story of Du Shiniang in Hongwu's sixth year in order to slander and spread rumors!”
"This... This is a despicable act of jealousy!"
Kong Zhao nodded." Since you say that this is slander, I will definitely impeach this person in the morning court tomorrow. I will ask His Majesty to search for Ying Tian and capture this scoundrel!"”
"Don't worry."
" Thank you, Chancellor!!" Li Jia kowtowed loudly. He wasn't even so devout when he kowtowed to his ancestors when he visited the grave.
At the same time, endless hatred surged in his heart.
If he knew who did this, he would definitely skin this person alive!
Just you wait!
