Go! Go kill whoever provoked you!
Under the punches and kicks of the generals, Xie Jin, who was on the ground, wailed incessantly.
The eunuch waiting by the steps heard the wails getting softer and softer, and he began to panic. He was afraid that this group of people would beat Xie Jin to death and he would not be able to explain himself.
With this in mind, the eunuch looked at His Highness and the others. He pulled on the eunuch's unique voice and shouted anxiously,""Stop fighting! Stop fighting! If you keep fighting, someone will die!"
A few of the attackers looked up, but they only took a glance.
Most people ignored him.
The eunuch who announced the decree saw this and was anxious. He paced back and forth.
At this moment, Prince of Yan Zhu Di stood up and waved his hand, shouting,""Stop!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the generals retracted their fists and kicks that they had already unleashed to their heart's content.
Xie Jin, who was lying on the ground, was left on his last breath.
The Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, stepped forward and bent down to grab the robe covering Xie Jin's head, patting it lightly.
Xie Jin, who was lying on the ground, raised his head with great difficulty. He looked at the generals who were standing in front of him and laughing. He said in exasperation,""You guys! You guys!"
"Just you wait! How dare you openly disobey the divine order? All of you will lose your heads!”
Looking at Xie Jin lying on the ground, everyone did not mind.
At this moment, the King of Yan, Zhu Di, was still draping the official robe that he had just placed on Xie Jin's head over his shoulders. He turned around and looked at Xie Jin on the ground, smiling.
Then, he looked up at everyone and asked with a smile,"Which one of you attacked?"
The generals shook their heads, their eyes smiling.
Zhu Di turned to ask the civil officials standing at the side. These civil officials shook their heads, indicating that they did not see anything.
Facing the Prince of Yan, Zhu Di, Xie Jin did not dare to speak up.
······
After leaving the throne room, Zhu Yuanzhang followed his usual habits.
He headed straight for the Earth Peace Palace.
It was noon, and Empress Ma had already prepared lunch and was waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang.
On the table in the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, there was a dish of raw garlic as well as a bowl of meat, vegetables, and soup.
This was the eating habit of Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang for decades, and it could not be changed even after he became the emperor.
at this time
Empress Ma hummed a little tune as she dipped her chopsticks into the soup and put it into her mouth.
yeah ~
Today's soup was indeed exceptionally delicious.
Empress Ma had just put down her chopsticks when she heard a eunuch's report from outside the hall.
The Emperor has arrived!
Following that, the palace maids outside the palace hall knelt down and saluted."This servant greets the Emperor ~"
But today, unlike usual, he didn't hear Zhu Yuanzhang ask him to stand up.
Empress Ma placed the plates and turned to look outside the door.
Emperor Hongwu's face was dark as he held the letter tightly in his hand.
He looked aggressive and fierce.
Empress Ma, who had been with Zhu Yuanzhang for decades, naturally understood that Zhu Yuanzhang was angry.
And very angry!
Empress Ma quickly waved her hand to dismiss everyone in the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, then stepped forward.
He grabbed Zhu Yuanzhang's arm with both hands and asked softly,""What's wrong? Who provoked you? Why are you so angry?"
Seeing Empress Ma step forward, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been depressed all the way from the imperial court, almost roared to vent,"Who is it? Who else could it be? Your good in-laws!"
Empress Ma was confused, but she had already seen the letter that Zhu Yuanzhang was clutching tightly in his right hand.
He knew that this letter was the culprit.
Thinking of this, Empress Ma reached out to take the letter.
Zhu Yuanzhang was not stubborn and simply stuffed the letter into Empress Ma's hands.
Then, he walked towards the Eight Immortals table. He first stepped on the stool and then sat down.
He grabbed the plate of raw garlic cloves on the table and threw them into his mouth as if he was venting his anger.
The sound of chewing garlic gave the furious Zhu Yuanzhang a place to vent his anger.
From the start, it could not be stopped.
Before Empress Ma could finish reading the letter, the plate of raw garlic on the table had already been chewed up by Zhu Yuanzhang and swallowed.
After reading the letter, Empress Ma walked forward and sat beside Zhu Yuanzhang. She asked,"Chongba, do you think there's some misunderstanding here?”
"Misunderstanding?"
Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head to look at Ma Xiuying with a fierce face. He slammed his right hand on the Eight Immortals table, making a loud sound. Then, he said hysterically,"Misunderstanding my ass! They had already impeached him in black and white in court, so how could there be a misunderstanding?”
Faced with Zhu Yuanzhang's angry shout, Empress Ma did not say anything and just stared straight at him.
The two of them did not speak and just watched.
Ma Xiuying stared at Zhu Yuanzhang until he lost his temper.
After a long time…
"Zhu Zhongba!" Empress Ma said. I owe you, don't I?"
"Ever since you entered this door, you've been slapping the table and throwing tantrums whenever you have something to say.”
"Ah?"
After saying this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not say anything.
However, the resentment on his face had somehow subsided a little.
" I cooked dinner at home because I was waiting for you to come home for dinner," Ma Xiuying continued." I wasn't waiting for you to give me a hard time when you came home!"”
"Get out if you don't want to eat!"
As Empress Ma spoke, she pushed Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulder and pointed to the door of the Palace of Earthly Tranquility.""Go! Go kill whoever provoked you!”
at this time
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was no longer dark and resentful. Instead, there was a look of innocence.
"Sister, let's…"
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth but didn't know how to continue.
Empress Ma glared at Zhu Yuanzhang and complained,"Have you calmed down? If it's gone, then eat!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Hearing Ma Xiuying's words, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't open his mouth, but his head was like a child admitting his mistake, nodding vigorously.
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang picked up his chopsticks, but he looked at the plates that he had already swept clean. He smacked his lips and said," Sister, you know me. Without garlic, I can't eat…"
At this moment, Empress Ma still had a straight face. She reached into the drawer of the table and took out a plate of peeled raw garlic cloves. She slammed it heavily on the eight square table and said angrily,"This is the amount for tonight. You don't have to eat tonight! Put it outside and eat air!"
"Hey!"
Looking at the plate full of raw garlic that Empress Ma brought out, Zhu Yuanzhang actually grinned." Listen to our sister. Let's put it outside to enjoy the northwest wind tonight."”
Ma Xiuying glared at Zhu Yuanzhang again, then picked up an empty bowl and scooped a bowl of Fish Head Tofu Soup for Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang was chewing garlic cloves as he took the Fish Head Tofu Soup from Ma Xiuying with both hands. He opened his throat and took a sip.
"Be careful, it's hot!"
Empress Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said subconsciously.
Zhu Yuanzhang grinned when he heard these heartwarming words and continued drinking.
At this moment, Empress Ma calmly picked up a spoon and scooped a bowl of soup for herself.
"Sister, don't you think that today's soup is fresher than usual?”
Zhu Yuanzhang licked the last drop of soup in his bowl and looked up at Ma Xiuying curiously.
"Here, try this dish again!"
Empress Ma didn't rush to answer. She just pointed at the two dishes on the table with her chopsticks and motioned for Zhu Yuanzhang to taste them.
