Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon throne, looked down at Hu Weiyong, who was kneeling down and begging him.
Killing intent flashed in his eyes.
The officials who had previously advocated for a re-examination lowered their heads.
He pretended that he had not said anything just now.
He looked at the deathly silent court.
In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed the anger in his heart.
He had his own plans. At this time, he could not touch Hu Weiyong.
However, Liu Bai's matter had given Zhu Yuanzhang a warning.
Sometimes, many things could only be concluded after one went to see for themselves.
This was especially true for Hu Weiyong, who had secretly intercepted the memorials from all over the world.
To Zhu Yuanzhang, this was a huge reminder.
"I personally went to Fengyang County, and the people of Fengyang are all smiles! Do you know why? Because they could live a stable and comfortable life! Therefore, the people there were laughing happily!”
"And the reason why Fengyang's taxes can rise every year. That was because the citizens of Fengyang County all had savings in their homes. Trade was prosperous, and there were commercial taxes and agricultural taxes. It's already this number!"
"You, Hu Weiyong, as the prime minister of the current dynasty, want to convict a person just because of a few rumors and the annual increase in taxes in Fengyang! Your actions are actually so sloppy. If I didn't personally investigate this time, I would have really been killed by you!”
After Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the dragon throne.
Looking at the ministers below, he pointed at Hu Weiyong who was kneeling on the ground and cursed.
If it wasn't for the fact that the time hadn't come yet.
Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to kill this guy who deceived his subordinates.
Although it wasn't the right time yet, it wasn't a problem for him to scold her.
At the very least, he was beating up the ministers and also indulging Hu Weiyong.
"This subject lacked consideration in this matter and almost caused Your Majesty to be sad and infamy. This subject is willing to bear all the punishment.”
Although Hu Weiyong said that at this time.
But in reality, he was also a little confused about what the Emperor meant.
He shouted that he would accept all punishment.
However, his words kept trying to lower the seriousness of the matter.
It was not easy for him to climb to his current position. It was impossible for him to be unwilling to give up the position of prime minister.
"Humph! Prime Minister Hu Weiyong listened to the slanderous words of others and came to a conclusion without understanding the truth. You almost caused our Ming Dynasty to lose a loyal and capable minister! Draw up an edict, punish Prime Minister Hu Weiyong's salary for three years, issue a letter of sin, and announce the city gate to warn others!”
When he heard the punishment from Zhu Yuanzhang.
Hu Weiyong, who was kneeling on the ground, let out a deep breath.
A year's salary was nothing to him.
In comparison, the Book of Self-Conviction was the most embarrassing.
However, compared to losing the black veil hat on his head, this was already a very good ending.
" Damn Liu Bai, I'll definitely return the humiliation today to you in the future!'
Hu Weiyong gritted his teeth in his heart.
He quickly got up and kowtowed to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"I, Hu Weiyong, thank Your Majesty for your kindness!”
Liu Bai, who was far away in Fengyang, had no idea.
He had actually become the starting point of a game between the emperor and the prime minister without even knowing it.
Furthermore, he had not participated in a dispute at all, but the final result was his complete victory!
In the throne room.
After punishing Hu Weiyong, Zhu Yuanzhang once again looked at the ministers below.
His serious face suddenly broke into a smile.
His temperamental appearance made everyone below confused.
However, no one dared to lower their guard at this moment.
Because the might of the heavens was unpredictable, who could guarantee that the Emperor's thunderous wrath would not fall on his head in the next moment?
"Dear ministers, we are going to Fengyang to visit our old place again. But he found a lot of interesting things!”
"Sigh, Tiande, you won't believe me if I tell you. Fengyang City was bustling with traffic now. The streets were filled with people, but there was never a jam! The Fengyang County Magistrate had set a rule that only people could walk on the road. On the same road, all the pedestrians and carriages had to walk on the left side.”
"Although Phoenix Sun isn't a big place, the carriages that come and go every day are comparable to our Yingtian Prefecture! I've been in Fengyang for a few days, but I've never seen a road jam!”
"And on the first day of our return to the Ying Tian Prefecture, our carriage…They were blocked at the entrance of the palace! Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Xu Da, who had been calm all this while, suddenly heard Zhu Yuanzhang call him.
He blinked his eyes as if he had not woken up.
Then, he reacted.
"Your Majesty, I haven't been back to Fengyang for many years. If you say so, I don't know what to do! I've been staying in the Ying Tian Manor all these years. Although I feel that the Ying Tian Manor is a little lacking, it's actually quite good!”
Xu Da knew why Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly mentioned this to him.
However, he knew.
It was another matter if he didn't talk to her.
He was a general and the commander of the battlefield.
Other than Zhu Yuanzhang asking him for his opinion when he wanted him to attack somewhere.
Other times, he didn't know anything and didn't say anything.
Those were not his responsibilities, so he could not care less!
You are His Majesty. If you feel that the management of the Heaven Ying Manor is not good enough, you can find trouble with whoever you want.
Anyway, just don't drag me into it!
