Hall of Heaven.
The lights in the hall were dim as usual.
Today's memorial had already been read, but Zhu Yuanzhang did not return to his bedroom. Instead, he closed his eyes and rested in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute. He sat quietly in the main hall, his expression uncertain.
A moment later, the old eunuch Hou Ying whispered to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Your Majesty, Erhu is back."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Call Erhu in."
In no time, the travel-worn Er Hu quietly appeared in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Your Majesty, I'm back."
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't make a sound, but quietly looked at Erhu.
Xiao Hu quietly took out a wooden head from the coffin.
"Your Majesty, you are indeed wise. I have already explored the grave of Lord Liu Ji, the Earl of Sincerity. There is only this wooden head in the coffin.”
Hearing this, the dark clouds on Zhu Yuanzhang's face instantly dissipated.
"What did we say, what did we say! I knew that Bowen wouldn't die so easily.”
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang counted with his fingers and said faintly,
"This old fellow is seventy-one years old this year.”
Erhu looked at Zhu Yuanzhang blankly and asked in confusion,
"Your Majesty, do you want me to issue the arrest warrant?”
"There's no need to make a big fuss for the time being to avoid alerting the enemy. Send Liu Ji's portrait to all parts of the country and order people to investigate carefully.”
"Yes."

……
Back Hall of Lu Family in Jinling City
Hengxiang Jewelry became popular overnight in Jinling. The Persian merchants who were originally in Jinling could not help but be shocked.
What shocked them was that they didn't even have the skill to burn paper.
Every year, they had to brave the wind and waves to go to Tunis to buy glass and then transport it back to Ming.
But even so, the glass that had been transported from afar was like clouds and mud compared to the glass that Da Ming had.
The glass in the Persian's hands was only dark green and brown, but Heng Xiang's counter was made of completely transparent glass without a single bubble.
In the end, the Jiangnan aristocrats still gathered at the Lu family.
Although the Lu family was destined to be notorious for thousands of years, the current Lu family was still the emperor's in-laws and the future country's husband.
With such a thing happening, these civil officials still had to come and discuss with Lu Ben.
"Lord Lu, I am 100% sure that the glass-making technique came from the palace, and it was Tai Sun and Lan Yu who were in cahoots.”
"The grand grand grandson, the crown prince of the country, actually fought with the people for benefits. How can he rule the world in the future!”
“……”
How could Lü Ben not know that the only chance to save the Lü family was to fight Zhu Xiongying, as long as Zhu Yunwen became the emperor in the future.
He was Tian Zi's grandfather.
At that time, even if there were a hundred allusions, they could still protect the Lu family's glory and wealth.
Listening to everyone's verbal criticism of Zhu Xiongying.
Just as everyone was getting excited and preparing to impeach Zhu Xiongying…
At this moment, a young civil official looked at Lu Ben and said with a smile,
"Lord Lu, this matter is urgent. Impeachment of Grand Sun needs to be planned slowly. This lowly official thinks that the people in the front hall can be used!”
"The people in the front hall? Lan Yu?"
Lu Ben looked at the person in front of him with some doubt.
The old butler hurriedly reminded,
"Master, this is the first place in the 15th year of Hongwu's exam, the Imperial Academy's editor Huang Zicheng, Lord Huang.”
In the Ming Dynasty, all the officials in the Imperial Academy were left to the future rulers.
Huang Zicheng had just passed the imperial examination and was accepted into the Imperial Academy. This was enough to prove that Huang Zicheng's future was limitless. At least among the civil officials, he would be the future pillar.
"Then what is Lord Huang's opinion?"
"This humble official is not talented. If we can use this matter to distance the relationship between the Duke of Liang and Taisun, won't we be able to cut off Taisun's wings outside the palace?”
"If we don't have conclusive evidence to impeach the Grand Sun for violating the ancestral teachings, I'm afraid the emperor will be disgusted.”
" But if we impeach Blue Jade for bewitching Grand Sun…"
According to Zhu Yuanzhang's protective temper, even if Zhu Xiongying came out to do business, he would at most close the business.
But you, Lan Yu, are not a member of the Zhu family. Bewitching the grand grandson is Zhu Yuanzhang's reverse scale.
Huang Zicheng had only changed his angle slightly, but his killing intent was already revealed!
Seeing everyone's shock, Huang Zicheng continued,
"Lord Lu, if we want to overthrow Grand Sun, we must have two plans. One is to stay in the palace and let the Imperial Sun obtain the Emperor's Heart first. When the Emperor's Heart wavers, we will expose this matter.”
Huang Zicheng's strategy could not help but make Lu Ben's eyes suddenly open.
"He is indeed a young genius."
"Lord Lu, you praise me too much.”
"The Crown Princess has recently been looking for a good teacher for the Imperial Sun. I wonder if Lord Huang is willing to be transferred to Zuo Chunfang as a middleman?”
Huang Zicheng was overjoyed.
Huang Zicheng knew the methods of the aristocrats, and if Zhu Xiongying succeeded to the throne in the future, due to the blood relationship of the Chang family, he would naturally be close to the meritorious officials.
This was something that Huang Zicheng did not want to see.
Since they both wanted to defeat Zhu Xiongying, if Huang Zicheng could be transferred to Zuo Chunfang at this critical juncture, his future would not be something that an ordinary Imperial Teacher could estimate.
"I am Huang Zicheng.”
Lu Ben nodded slightly and hurriedly went forward to help Huang Zicheng up.
"Zicheng, there's no need to be so polite. I wonder what Zicheng thinks about the matters in the palace?”
"There is. His Majesty has already issued an edict a few days ago to reduce all expenses in the palace. I believe that the Empress must be in dire straits in recent days. Just as His Highness the Imperial Sun is giving some money to the Empress, it may be able to solve the urgent need.”
"Only silver?"
"Yes! It's just money. Lord Lu, don't forget that Taisun has made a huge profit now. In the future, when things happen, Taisun has money but doesn't help. The imperial grandson is still young and knows that the palace is in a difficult time. How can he not make Taisun pale in comparison?”
Hearing Huang Zicheng's words, Lu Ben couldn't stop laughing.
"Good, good. This official will immediately write a letter and send it to the palace. Everyone, please return first.”
Everyone was stunned.
"According to Lord Huang's plan, shouldn't I go to the front hall to meet the Duke of Liang?"”
Everyone laughed and immediately scattered.
