"Shenxing, do this beautifully for us.”
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted Lan Shenxing to continue training.
Hearing this, Lan Shenxing stood up and bowed."Your Majesty, I can't do this."
"Can't do it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang put down his bowl and chopsticks." You can even handle the Shen family's matters. How can you tell us that you can't handle such a small matter?"”
To Zhu Yuanzhang, the Kongyin Case was indeed a small matter.
Even for Lan Shenxing, this matter was much simpler than the Shen family's matter.
He only needed to know who Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to clean up and conveniently bring those Jiangnan officials along.
Was it difficult?
It was definitely not difficult.
What was so difficult about killing people?
The difficult part was that after killing someone.
As a transmigrator, Lan Shenxing knew very well how Mao Xiang died.
It was because he knew too many things.
Lan Shenxing already knew a lot of things that he shouldn't have.
If he were to participate in the Kongyin Case again, it would be very disadvantageous to him.
Of course.
Zhu Yuanzhang's original intention was very simple. He just wanted to train Lan Shenxing.
However, people could change.
Zhu Yuanzhang indeed had such thoughts now, but who could guarantee that he would still have such thoughts in a few years?
For example.
Did Zhu Yuanzhang trust Mao Xiang so much that he had never thought of killing him?
But in a few years, Mao Xiang, who knew too many of Zhu Yuanzhang's secrets…would die without a doubt!
"I have more important things to do at the moment. I think it's more appropriate to let others do what Your Majesty has instructed.”
To Lan Shenxing, it didn't matter who did it, as long as it wasn't him.
"Oh?"
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.
Although he was smiling, there was a chill in his eyes." Something important? What is it that is more important than us?”
"Ahem…"
Zhu Biao coughed to remind him.
He didn't know what was wrong with Lan Shenxing today. He didn't want such a free credit.
Could it be that he didn't want to kill?
But even if he didn't want to kill, wouldn't it be over if he let his Jinyiwei do it?
"What I did was for the sake of the Great Ming Dynasty and also for Your Majesty.”
Lan Shenxing was clear.
He couldn't continue to stay in the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
Of course, it was still possible to have a virtual position.
However, he definitely could not continue to participate in the dirty and secret matters here.
"The potato you bet with us last time?”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"Yes."
Lan Shenxing nodded.
"Potato?"
Zhu Biao was stunned.
Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Lan Shenxing and looked at Zhu Biao. He smiled and said,"This kid made a bet with us. He said that he would show us the new grain before spring. He also said that this grain could fill the people's stomachs and that the logistics would not be in danger.
We made a bet with him. If he loses, he will be beaten and sent to the army. If I lose, I'll agree to let him stay in Ying Tian.
But Biao Er, do you think he can win? How could he grow food in the middle of winter?”
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Lan Shenxing and said,""When we were farming, you were still nowhere to be found! He didn't even know the common sense of farming and still dared to spout nonsense.”
Zhu Biao's expression changed slightly.
"The people are full, and the logistics are not in danger." Lan Shenxing had told him about this first, but he had not mentioned the potato at that time.
"Your Majesty, the world is big and there are all kinds of strange things.”
Lan Shenxing's expression was neither servile nor overbearing.
"Alright, we gave you a way out, so you just gave it to us. Do you have to embarrass yourself?”
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up his bowl and chopsticks and continued eating. He said,"It's not impossible for you to stay in Ying Tian, but since you don't want to follow the army, you should at least get credit from other places, right?
Once this case is settled, in addition to the Shen family's matter, I will give you another big case in the spring. Your contribution will not be inferior to that of the army.”
Old Zhu was able to say this out loud because he considered Lan Shenxing as one of his own on account of Zhu Biao.
However…
Lan Shenxing felt his scalp go numb.
Big case?
If there were no accidents, this big case was referring to…Hu Weiyong!
One had to know.
Hu Weiyong's case had a lot of repercussions.
And Mao Xiang was killed because of this.
If Lan Shenxing handled the case, who knew if Zhu Yuanzhang would punish him?
"I would like to ask Your Majesty to move."
Lan Shenxing thought about it again and again and decided to go all out.
"Move? Where to?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
Zhu Biao also looked at Lan Shenxing curiously.
What was this kid up to this time?
"Move to my residence."
Lan Shenxing said.
"Why are we going to your place?" Zhu Biao asked. You don't even have a eunuch or palace maid to serve you.”
"Don't tell me you want me to go and see your so-called potatoes?”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Lan Shenxing bowed.
"Biao Er, let's go."
Zhu Yuanzhang's stubbornness rose. He stood up and said,""I really don't believe that something can grow in the ground even though it's already winter.”
Zhu Biao picked up a cloak and draped it over Zhu Yuanzhang.
Although it had just entered winter, the sky was already dark, and the temperature at night was already below zero.
The eunuch called for the carriage.
Zhu Yuanzhang entered the palace.
Lan Shenxing and Zhu Biao rode their horses towards the courtyard.
