Ying Tian, Imperial Palace.
Zhou Dexing had never been so nervous as he was today.
The echo of the empty footsteps and the guards beside him seemed to be coming for him.
"Eunuch Song, do you know why the emperor suddenly called me?”
Song He didn't say a word. He didn't even look sideways and just walked straight ahead.
Zhou Dexing was even more nervous. He thought through the excuse he had just made up a few times in his heart before he managed to calm down a little.
However, Zhou Ji's legs were trembling behind him. It was really difficult for him to walk. He was actually getting further and further away. It was not easy for him to reach the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
"Emperor, the Marquis of Jiangxia has arrived."
"Oh? Zhou Dexing was here? Quickly let him in!"
"Yes, sir!"
Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was normal, Zhou Dexing was suspicious. Could it not be because of the Peach Blossom Fan?
Could it be that it hasn't reached the Emperor's ears?
He turned around and said,"Zhou Ji, wait outside."”
This way, it would be easier for him to make an issue out of it.
Zhou Ji's eyes were filled with pleading.
"Don't worry!"
He walked in and saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on the armchair, watching the show intently.
"Your Majesty."
"You're here? We haven't seen each other for a long time.”
"Don't be so distant, sit down!"
"Thank you, Emperor!"
Zhou Dexing had just sat down when he heard the troupe singing loudly on the stage,"I once saw orioles singing in the Jade Hall of Jinling, and flowers blooming early in the Qinhuai Waterside Pavilion!”
"How do you know it will melt easily?"
"I saw him build the Vermilion Tower, I saw him entertain guests, I saw his tower collapse!”
Then came the climax,"I'm just a lowly person who doesn't dare to forget about the country!”
Zhou Dexing stood up immediately, his heart in his throat.
"Sit down!"
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and said coldly.
"Yes, sir!"
Zhou Dexing didn't dare to disobey and sit down, but he felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. How could he not know what the song was about?
That was clearly the Peach Blossom Fan!
"Your Majesty ~"
"Don't talk, let's watch the show first!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was watching the show, while Zhou Dexing was watching Zhu Yuanzhang.
From the beginning to the end, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression did not change at all. It was impossible to guess his inner thoughts!
Zhou Dexing lived in a house of a few hundred acres and enjoyed a luxurious life. Every time, he felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was nothing more than this.
However, when they faced him in reality, they realized that he had always been the same person who was as unmoving as a mountain. In fact, he was even more terrifying than before!
After the performance ended, the troupe left the stage. Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes to reminisce, humming the song. He suddenly said casually,"How did Liao Zhai come up with this?”
"Datong Dynasty!"
"Hahaha!"
"He created a completely fictional dynasty!”
"If there really is, where did history change?”
Zhou Dexing was at a loss and could not answer.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him.”
"Damn it!" Zhou Dexing nodded vigorously.”
"What about the Marquis of Jiangling?"
"Your Majesty!"
Zhou Dexing hurriedly knelt down, but Zhu Yuanzhang said,"Don't kneel for no reason. We're all old brothers. When did you become so distant?？”
"Get up!"
"Sit down!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's words were unusually harsh. He kept calling him an old brother, and every word was an order!
Seeing Zhou Dexing carefully sit down, he put his arm around Zhou Dexing's shoulder, just like a shop assistant.""We're only asking, should that Marquis Jiangling die?”
"This…"
"He colluded with the Ministry of Justice's scribe to deceive Jun Father.”
"I suddenly thought of an old saying ~"
"Spit out candy from your mouth and pull out a knife from your waist!”
"How stupid is the emperor inside the peach blossom fan?”
"Isn't that so?"
"The Longevity Festival amnesty was originally a gift to the subjects, but in the end, it was falsified and turned into a plan to let the lawless live!”
"Tell me ~"
"Why didn't he flip through a few more pages and go through everyone when the Ministry of Justice sent the list of pardons?？”
Zhou Dexing was held by the shoulders and did not even dare to breathe loudly. His face was drenched in cold sweat and his mouth was dry. He could only gulp.
"Jiang Xiahou, make a guess."
"Is it possible that the scribes of the Ministry of Justice did that on purpose?”
"Deliberately presenting everyone's name list so that the Emperor wouldn't finish reading it?”
"Then, I'll sneak two people in ~"
Zhu Yuanzhang said alone. Seeing that there was no response for a long time, he patted Zhou Dexing's shoulder and said,"I'm asking you a question!"
Zhou Dexing suddenly quivered.？”
"Yes... No! No!"
"Jun Father is the son of heaven, and he is bound by the heavens. There is no such possibility!”
"Hahaha!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed." Our sons are known as the sons and grandsons of dragons, but we know very well what kind of people they are!”
"There's a lot of food, drink, and sh * t. Some people even have to gamble.”
"If it really is the son of a dragon, then isn't the desire of human nature a little too much?”
"And…"
"One day, I asked Li Shan Chang a question.”
Li Shan Chang was speechless. He asked Liu Bowen again, and he said with certainty,"Tian surname Zhu!"
"Why is Tian surnamed Zhu?"
"The current emperor's surname is Zhu, so I know that the heavens are surnamed Zhu!”
"Let's just say it!"
"There have been so many emperors since ancient times. Could it be that the heavens have so many surnames?”
"We came from a humble background, and there hasn't been a single official in our ancestors for eight generations.”
"Otherwise, how can you explain that someone dared to deceive the emperor who holds the Heavenly Emperor in his mouth!”
"Am I right?"
Zhu Yuanzhang finally left his side." Today, I asked another question. What is the explanation for the name of the Datong Dynasty?”
The Hanlin scholar Kong Zhao explained,"To preserve harmony is to preserve chastity. The first to appear in the world is the peace of all nations."
"These words come from the Book of Changes."
"Yamato is Datong."
"We came back and flipped through the Book of Changes. What a coincidence. Do you know what the first sentence is?”
Zhou Dexing shook his head subconsciously.
"Hahaha!"
"You ignorant and incompetent old fart. Back then, I asked you to study more, but you weren't willing. Today, you've exposed yourself!”
"Let me tell you, the first sentence is that the Ming Dynasty is from beginning to end, the six times are formed, and the times ride the six dragons to resist the heavens!”
"This is also the reason why our country is called Big Ming!”
"What a coincidence!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's words were clear. This Da Tong was used to symbolize the Ming Dynasty!
The Jiangling Marquis and Zhou Ji ~
Zhou Dexing could not hold on any longer. He knelt on the ground and trembled."Your Majesty ~"
"I ~"
"All of this was done by my unfilial son. I really don't know anything!”
"I implore the emperor to investigate!"
