"If it wasn't for little Daoist Priest Zhang Qing, you wouldn't have been able to see me when you returned to the capital.”
Feeling the gentle power in the jade talisman, Zhu Biao said casually.
Only then did Zhu Di recover from his shock and take a deep breath.
The expert that Yao shi spoke of was actually so young?
In his mind, he recalled Yao shi's evaluation of this person.
"You know that you can't do it, but you still do it. This fellow Daoist is fearless, far beyond what this penniless monk can compare to.”
This should be referring to one's temperament.
How would Daoist Zhang Qingxiao's abilities compare to Yao shi's?
For a moment, Zhu Di was curious about Zhang Qing.
Zhu Yuanzhang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhu Biao's complexion had improved. He said,"This jade talisman is quite effective."
"But relying on jade talismans to maintain it is not a long-term solution.”
Although jade talismans were good, they could only treat the symptoms but not the root of the problem.
The vengeful souls of those women would still haunt Zhu Biao, and it was hard to guarantee that nothing would happen.
Unless the case was solved earlier.
Let the people involved in the case deserve it, and let the victims get their justice as soon as possible.
Zhu Di thought for a moment and asked tentatively,"Since Taoist Zhang Xiao can calculate, why not ask him to help with the investigation? When the time came, he would only need to calculate how those women died and what they saw when they were alive. It would be clear at a glance.”
"There's no other way.”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di with a rare look of admiration.
With Zhang Qing watching over him, Biao Er would be much safer, and the efficiency of the investigation would also be higher.
However, what gave him a headache was…
Zhang Qing, this outsider, still had to rely on others now. He might really not be able to order him around.
"Biao 'er, go and ask the little Taoist priest tomorrow if he's willing to cultivate in the Eastern Palace.”
"We will send more people tomorrow to keep an eye on all the officials in the court. We will not let anyone leak out!”
Old Zhu had always had zero tolerance for corrupt officials. He would kill anyone he discovered.
What's more, these people did dirty things and still lived happily, but let our Biao 'er bear the resentment of the people for them!
If it wasn't for the fact that the implications this time were too wide, he would have long lost his patience!
Zhu Yuanzhang was waiting for the truth to come out.
This was to let all the officials in the Ming Dynasty, regardless of size, as long as they were fed by the imperial food, know one thing.
Heaven's net was long and wide!
.....
After Old Zhu left, only Zhu Biao and Zhu Di were left in the Eastern Palace.
Zhu Di did not leave because he was worried. After all, there would be vengeful spirits coming to his door every night.
According to Daoist Priest Zhang Xiao, the murderous aura formed by his killing could at least have a deterrent effect. It was always safer.
"It's been so long, but it seems like only yesterday that Fourth Brother was conferred the title of Northern Fortress and left the capital.”
"Our fourth brother is now a king who guards an area and takes charge of an area alone.”
"If one day I'm no longer around, Fourth Brother can also help us look after Great Ming's empire.”
Looking at Zhu Di, who had changed his appearance, Zhu Biao's expression softened.
Originally, he should have been a dead man and would not have been able to see his fourth brother.
During this period of time, he had thought a lot.
As for whether he could survive in the end, or how long he could live, he did not know in his heart.
That was why he spared no effort in investigating the Xue family's case.
Since he was in a precarious situation, he had to at least do more for Ming and the people before he died.
"Eldest brother, don't say that. You'll get better.”
Zhu Di said with a complicated expression.
He didn't have the confidence to say this.
Yao shi had once said that there were many people who had defied the heavens, and all of them were outstanding geniuses who had left their names in the annals of history. However, all of them had failed.
It was true that Taoist Zhang Qing was a capable person, but to be fair,
The chances of his elder brother surviving were almost slim!
If that day really came, how would he deal with it?
Could it be that he was really going to listen to Yao shi and rebel?
"Who doesn't die? It's just a matter of time.”
"Fourth brother, I've already tried Yun Wen. This child doesn't have the personality to do big things.”
Zhu Biao shook his head and looked straight at Zhu Di." On the contrary, Fourth Brother's personality is similar to Father's. He's full of martial virtue, decisive, and has a sense of propriety when doing things. If one day, my life is coming to an end,"
"I will persuade Imperial Father to make you the heir!”
This was the conclusion that Zhu Biao came up with.
On one hand, he would force Yun Wen to succeed the throne and watch his brothers suffer. In the end, even if the King of Yan did not rebel, the other vassal kings would also rebel. Who knew how long the Ming Dynasty would fall into war?
On the other side was Zhu Di, who Zhang Qing said was quite bold, and his fourth brother, who had inherited his ambition.
He also believed that after weighing the pros and cons, his father would not insist that the eldest son must succeed the throne.
"This…"
Zhu Di's pupils widened when he heard this, and he was stunned for a long time.
He had never expected that his eldest brother would take the initiative to say such a thing. Why would he say such a thing?
Shock, gratitude, doubt, and other emotions spread in his heart.
Creak--
Zhu Di was about to say something when he heard the door move.
The surrounding lights also flickered, and the air seemed to have become much more humid.
It was the vengeful spirit of the woman who had died unjustly.
"Hmm? This time, the coldness seemed to be even more bone-chilling?”
Zhu Biao frowned and felt that something was wrong.
