From the start of the Dao War, Old Zhu's relationship with the officials had become very subtle.
Scholars and emperors relied on each other and guarded against each other.
It was still his own family that was reliable. This was the Emperor's thought.
These bastards just couldn't bear to see his Zhu Clan disciples doing well.
Li Shan Chang and the others didn't know Old Zhu's worries. The more they behaved like this, the more wary the Emperor was of them.
He had to leave behind a clean officialdom for his descendants.
Old Zhu's killing intent grew stronger.
He thought of the position of Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards that had been vacant for a month. It was time to make a decision.
"Let's go back to the palace and wait for your brother!”
Old Zhu no longer paid attention to the officials who were being flogged on the street. He sat in the carriage and returned to the Imperial Palace.
The news of the emperor reprimanding all officials on the street,
It caused a sensation in the Ying Tian Prefecture.
Emperor Zhu's speech made the officials who weren't involved tremble in fear.
And this storm caused by Zhu Xi…
He didn't know anything yet.
Just as Old Zhu was spanking the officials,
He was listening to his trusted eunuch report everything that had happened in the Wu Estate.
"F * ck!"
"You said Zhang Xiu is Shen Wansan?"
"That guy is Shen Wansan?"
Zhu Rong's expression was as if he had stepped on a pile of dog poop early in the morning, making Xu Miaoyun want to laugh.
She put on a stern face and said seriously,
"That's right, Your Highness, Zhang Xiu is Shen Wansan!”
"Shen Wansan has already revealed everything about you and His Majesty should have already gone to confiscate your residence!”
Zhu Xiong wanted to die when he heard this. Damn it, he had stepped on a huge pit.
What did I do wrong to make the heavens play with me like this?
If he knew that the other party was Shen Wansan, he would never sell cement to him.
Who would have thought that this unlucky fellow would actually use an alias to get close to him?
He was greedy to sell the cement stock to Shen Wansan.
This fellow was someone that his father had his eyes on. He was a big explosive. Now that the cement incident had been exposed, his house had also been raided.
He had worked hard and carefully, but in the end, he had been careful of loneliness.
Hearing Xu Miaoyun recount everything, Zhu Rong wanted to cry but had no tears.
He stood up and put away his tools.
He turned around and walked out of the door.
"Your Highness, where are you going?"
"Are you going to run away?"
The young eunuch gloated at Zhu Rong's defeat.
"If I could run, I would have run long ago.“
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes at the young eunuch. Xu Miaoyun stuck out her tongue and followed him in small steps.
The two returned to the palace.
Zhu Rong headed straight for the Martial Meritocrats Hall.
At this moment,
Old Zhu and the Crown Prince were discussing the good news that Xu Da had sent from the front line.
Xu Da used his back gangrene to successfully deceive the King of Qi of Northern Yuan, Wang Baobao, and achieved a tactical victory.
One of the armies naturally broke through Wang Baobao's main tent. He almost captured Wang Baobao.
Moreover, he had successfully saved Geng Bingwen's army, who had been schemed against by Wang Baobao.
"Xu Da, what a good guy. He really made use of his back gangrene to make an issue out of it!”
"When we were in the Duke of Wei's Public House, he told me about it. I didn't expect his plan to work!“
Zhu Biao was overjoyed.
"Imperial Father, that was all thanks to Fifth Brother's penicillin. This time, Uncle Xu ate roast goose every day in order to pretend!”
"Otherwise, Wang Baobao wouldn't believe it either!”
"Hahaha!"
The Emperor was overjoyed, but after laughing, his face became stern.
"Boss, do you know what it means when Xu Da's scheme succeeds?”
The Crown Prince thought for a moment and his expression changed slightly.
He sighed and said,
"Prove that there are spies from Northern Yuan in the Ming army!”
"That's right!"
"And its level isn't low!"
When the father and son mentioned this question, the joy of the military victory disappeared instantly.
"Our Great Ming isn't peaceful!"
"When the Ming Dynasty was just established, your father, I, fought all the way. Many officials of the previous dynasty submitted to my Ming Dynasty. Your father, I, also ignored the past and brought many people along!“
"Among these people, there are those who want to make contributions to my Great Ming!“
"There are many who still remember the kindness of the previous dynasty and work for Northern Yuan!”
"They can't wait for the court of Mobei to enter the Central Plains again and restore the glory of the previous dynasty!”
"Wasn't it those people who tried to assassinate you last time?”
Zhu Biao fell silent. As someone who had survived the assassination attempt and the future king of the empire,
It was not that he had not considered the matter of the former Yuan Dynasty spy.
If he had been stabbed to death the last time, the Ming Dynasty would definitely have fallen into chaos.
The northern expedition would also be put on hold.
For this matter, Old Zhu had killed many people from the Ministry of Revenue. However, even if blood flowed like a river, they still could not find any clues about the Yuan assassin.
Xu Da's spying at the front line,
It proved that the gap between the Yuan people was hidden deeper than they had imagined.
Moreover, after Wang Baobao's defeat, the other party would definitely sense that the Emperor was looking for them and would hide even deeper.
It was even more difficult to find him.
The main reason was that there were too many officials and generals who had submitted to the Ming Dynasty in the previous Yuan Dynasty.
Emperor Hongwu was magnanimous. After the Ming Dynasty was established,
From the officials and generals to the Mongols and perverts among the common people, they were basically treated equally with the Han people.
If the emperor treated them differently and focused on investigating those former generals and foreigners,
The foundation that the Great Ming Dynasty had just stabilized would immediately fall apart.
Perhaps that person in Mobei really hoped that Old Zhu would do such a self-destructive thing.
"Do you still think that I was wrong to set up the Embroidered Uniform Guards?”
The Emperor's voice entered Zhu Biao's ears and he was shocked.
"Imperial Father set up the Embroidered Uniform Guards for this purpose?”
"Of course, the Brocade Guard is not only searching for officials, but they can also dig out spies from the Qian Yuan!”
"The commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards must be in our Zhu family's hands!”
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the eunuch came in and reported,
"Your Majesty, His Highness Wu Wang is waiting outside. He wishes to see Your Majesty!”
"That kid is back?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the name of Zhu Xi, he was enraged again.
"Get him in here!"
At the Emperor's order, Zhu Xi's head immediately poked in from outside the door.
"Your son pays his respects to Imperial Father!"
"Isn't this His Highness Wu Wang?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Rong's face and said sarcastically,"
"I thought His Highness would never return!”
"Oh no!"
Zhu Rong had never seen the Emperor's expression like this since he was young.
Knowing that his father was really angry, he quickly knelt down."
"Imperial Father, your son has already heard about that accident. It really wasn't your son's intention!”
"That was an accident!"
"Surprise, my dignity is almost ruined by you!”
Old Zhu was furious when he thought of his own experience.
"Your son really didn't expect this. Your son deserves to die!”
Zhu Rong was not afraid of boiling water anyway, so he gave a perfunctory reply to his father seriously.
Old Zhu sneered. Did this kid think that he couldn't deal with him?
He didn't scold Zhu Rong directly. Instead, he pointed at the cement block on the desk.
"Tell me, what's with this cement and concrete?”
"What's with your residence?”
Being questioned by the Emperor, Zhu Rong sighed."
"It all started when I met a Hu…"
"Shut up!"
Zhu Rong spoke nonsense with a straight face. Even the Crown Prince wanted to beat this bastard up, let alone the Emperor.
Hu, Hu again?
Where did you get so many Hu to teach you skills every day?
"Don't talk about the Hu, get to the point!”
"What can that thing do?"
"Also, tell me honestly how many mansions you have hidden?”
"There really isn't anymore!" Zhu Rong smiled awkwardly.”
"Imperial Father, your son knows his mistake. Your son will hand over the cement formula and all the methods of using it!”
"Can't I contribute to the Imperial Court?”
"If you want to beat or scold me, your son will accept the punishment!”
Zhu Xiong handed over the cement formula without any psychological burden.
Anyway, cement was useless in his hands, so it was best to contribute it to the emperor.
Moreover, he knew that once this thing was exposed, it would be a hot potato.
If he could hand it over to his father and appease his anger, this deal would be worth it.
He understood the situation and accepted the punishment. It should be enough, right?
Even if his father wanted to punish him, his Indestructible Diamond Divine Art was not for show.
Old Zhu sneered. Did this unfilial son really think that he couldn't deal with him?
"I'll accept the cement formula!"
"You can help me handle the matter of the cement factory, but this matter cannot exempt you from punishment.”
As soon as the Emperor finished speaking, Zhu Rong continued,"
"Your son pleads guilty and accepts punishment 1
"Alright…then zhen, punish you to be the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards and help zhen control the officials!”
"Ah!"
"F * ck!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's 'punishment', the Crown Prince and Zhu Rong did not expect.
Especially Zhu Rong, when he heard that the Emperor wanted to confer him the title of Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, he felt terrible.
Damn it, what kind of punishment was this?
This was clearly giving him power, okay?
But he didn't want it at all!
Looking at Zhu Qian 'an's long face, Old Zhu felt inexplicably pleased.
This unfilial son, can't your father take you in?
Do you think I can't touch you just because you have copper skin and iron bones?
Let's see what you can do now.
"Your son requests Imperial Father to retract the order. Your son is not qualified to be the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards!”
Old Zhu's move had hit Zhu Rong's seven inches. He was really anxious.
How could he, who was determined to be a good-for-nothing, become the head of Da Ming's secret agents?
"Give me a reason to refuse?”
Old Zhu knew that this guy would definitely object, so he looked on coldly.
"Your son is dizzy from blood…"
"I don't know how to ride a horse…"
"Puff!"
Crown Prince Zhu Biao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Old Zhu glared at Zhu Rong.
Blood Fainting, you have the nerve to bring up this reason?
When Zhu Biao was assassinated, who was the one who killed him with a single palm strike?
You don't even blink when you kill people. Who are you trying to fool by saying that you're scared of blood?
And he didn't know how to ride a horse. He could even say such nonsense.
"You unfilial son, shut up!"
Old Zhu's smugness turned into anger again.
"Fifth Brother, your ability to lie through your teeth is admirable!”
"But you better not resist. This time, you probably won't be able to escape!”
Zhu Biao looked at the Emperor and Zhu Rong helplessly.
After talking to his father just now,
He already understood that his father had set up the Jinyiwei and let Zhu Xi take the throne.
It was inevitable.
Currently, the person suitable for this position in the royal family...
He seemed to be the only one!
