Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 2 Can I know this?
After Li Wei was taken away, the Qianqing Palace became quiet again.

"Come on."

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Li Wei's left backpack and said hello again. A young eunuch immediately trotted in with his head lowered and knelt down.

"Slaves see Your Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand and pointed: "Bring us that package."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The little eunuch responded, and obediently ran over and picked up Li Wei's backpack, which was quite heavy. Then he walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang, bowed his head, and presented it with both hands.

"Open it and see what's inside."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not pick it up, but ordered the young eunuch to open it and take a look.

The little eunuch said yes and was about to open the backpack, but he couldn't find a way to open it after rummaging around, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't urge him, he just watched the little eunuch play with it quietly.

Finally, the little eunuch accidentally touched the zipper and tore a small hole. The little eunuch's eyes lit up. He pinched the zipper and pulled it. Suddenly, a big hole opened in the black package. The little eunuch finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he took out the contents one by one:

First there was the largest thing, a black square board (laptop), then a short stick about a foot long, wrapped in an unknown cloth (folding umbrella), and then there were some unknown messy things.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to pour the things on the imperial case and examine them by candlelight.

How should I put it, except for those who have never seen it before, I have never seen anyone else.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it for a moment. Except for a cup with a lid that held water and a small book, he basically didn't recognize anything else and didn't know what it was for.

"Put these things away, no one can touch them except us!"

The origin of this person is unknown, and the things he brought are also strange. Just in case, it is best not to let others touch him.

"The slaves obey the order."

The little eunuch collected all the things that had been poured out, put them back into the bag as they were, and zipped them up.

The next morning, Li Wei was taken to prison early in the morning.

The palace door was locked last night, and Li Wei was taken here after freezing all night. He tried his best to please the two guards and wanted to get some information, but they ignored him.

In fact, after he was imprisoned, the two guards were also taken elsewhere for interrogation. After all, the two gatekeepers allowed a living person to barge in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. For someone as suspicious as Zhu Yuanzhang, he must have Don't believe their words easily.

In the prison, Li Wei was shackled. In front of him was a bearded general with sharp eyes like an eagle, looking at him coldly.This person is Mao Xiang.

In addition to them, there were one person holding a pen to record, two people standing guard, and one holding a whip ready to start beating at any time.

Not far away, there were some torture instruments that I had never seen before. The rust and blood stains on them were mixed, which was scary to look at.

"I heard that you have a tough mouth. It seems that you won't be able to do it without using some means." Mao Xiang said slowly, and then motioned to the man with the whip: "Let's do it..."

Li Weiwei said anxiously: "No, no, you haven't asked yet, just ask, I'll do it if you ask!"

After hearing this, Mao Xiang glanced at Li Wei in surprise. Didn't the news from His Majesty say that this boy is very tough? How come he became so cooperative?

Although he was confused, he still raised his hand to stop his subordinates who were about to come forward to try on Li Wei, and said:

"I guess you know the truth, okay, tell me, who are you, how did you break into the palace quietly, who ordered you, and what is your purpose?"

"Ah this..." Li Wei hesitated, not because he didn't want to say it, but because he didn't know how to say it, and he probably wouldn't believe it even if he said it.

"Why, do you still want to try our methods?" Mao Xiang's eyes narrowed, showing displeasure.

"No, I'm afraid you won't believe me even if I say it." Li Wei said a little discouraged.

"Tell me, can you believe that I have my own opinions?" Mao Xiang chuckled.

Li Wei pondered for a moment, organized his words, and said: "My name is Li Wei. If you are here really during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, then I should come from the world more than 600 years later. I traveled through time and space and came to you. , he was in the palace when he showed up..."

"Hahahaha..." Mao Xiang laughed: "Your statement is very novel and interesting, haha..."

Several others laughed along with Mao Xiang, and the one holding the pen also chuckled and shook his head. However, he still faithfully recorded the conversation between Mao Xiang and Li Wei. This was his responsibility.

Li Wei was speechless, he knew these people would not believe it.

Mao Xiang smiled for a moment, then his face suddenly turned cold. He waved his hand and said, "Hit me, I want to see how tough you can be!"

"No, no, no! I can prove it, I can prove it!" Li Wei shouted quickly.

"Hmph, how do you prove it?" Mao Xiang shouted sharply.

"I...I know history. What year is it now?" Li Wei said anxiously.Mao Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at this guy who was talking nonsense: "It is the 12th year of Hongwu."

Li Wei was dumbfounded: "Where was the 12th year of Hongwu... uh, forget it."

Li Wei was very worried because he blamed himself for having a fight with his history teacher. In the end, the two of them stopped talking to each other. From then on, the history class became his free time, and he could do whatever he wanted. The history teacher pretended not to see it and didn't ask questions. , and he just let it go.

It's too late to regret now. After thinking about it, I'd better follow the plot sequence of the TV series. I just hope that the TV series can have some integrity and not bullshit on important matters.

"Is Liu Bowen dead?" Li Wei asked.

"Died four years ago." Mao Xiang said lightly.

"What about Hu Weiyong? Is Hu Weiyong dead?" Li Wei asked again.

Mao Xiang's eyes changed slightly. Not many people knew about Hu Weiyong's death sooner or later, but not a few. The smart people in the court had already noticed it, and even Hu Weiyong himself was aware of it.

Over the years, Hu Weiyong has been arrogant and domineering, forming cliques for personal gain. He thinks he has great power and is ignored by everyone. In fact, he is just a clown. Zhu Yuanzhang has already laid a dragnet, and no matter how hard he jumps, he can't escape from Zhu Yuanzhang's grasp.

Mao Xiang glanced at the boy in front of him. Being able to know this at least proved that he knew a lot about the affairs of the court and had some insight.

"Soon." Mao Xiang sneered.

Hearing this, Li Wei felt reassured. He finally knew roughly which episode it was in... er, no, he knew which period of the Ming Dynasty it was in.

"Hu Weiyong intended to rebel, but was killed by His Majesty Zhu... and then His Majesty abolished the prime minister system. Hu Weiyong was the last prime minister in history!"

After Li Wei finished speaking, Mao Xiang's expression suddenly changed: "What did you say? Your Majesty wants to abolish the prime minister system?"

"Yeah, that's how it's shown on TV...well, that's what's written in the history books!"

After hearing this, Mao Xiang was horrified and his face looked uncertain.

Is this something he can know?

Your Majesty wants to kill Hu Weiyong. There are many people in the court who can guess this. Mao Xiang himself is involved in it and is one of the chess pieces arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang. However, Your Majesty never told him that killing Hu Weiyong is to abolish the legacy that has been passed down for thousands of years. The prime minister system!
Since His Majesty didn't say it, he shouldn't know and couldn't know, but now he knows so damn well!

There are many smart people in the court, and many people can see that Hu Weiyong will be finished sooner or later. However, the reason why Hu Weiyong has been so reckless over the years is inseparable from Zhu Yuanzhang's indulgence, but no one can understand Zhu Yuanzhang's purpose of doing this. .

Military generals are noble because they have no brains, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't concern them. Those who are smarter can just keep a distance from Hu Weiyong and have less contact with him.

Although the civil servants have a lot of savvy and are sneaky in political power, they are just like the so-called authorities who are obsessed with it. Moreover, these people think very highly of themselves. They shout that the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world all day long. Even if they are killed, they will not believe that Zhu Yuanzhang will abolish the millennium inheritance. The prime ministerial system.

In their view, no matter how they look at it, the prime minister system has its necessity for existence. Abolition of the prime minister system is equivalent to cutting off the emperor's hands and feet. No one with any brains can do such self-harm.

But Zhu Yuanzhang decided to do this. He understood the thoughts of the civil servants, and used Hu Weiyong's accusation of rebellion to catch them off guard. Whoever opposes then will be the Hu party, and it is reasonable to chop them down with a knife.

Now that he is fine, Mao Xiang understands everything, but he is not happy at all.

"that……"

"Shut up! Someone, stop his mouth!"

The rest of the people also came to their senses at this time. They seemed to have heard something they shouldn't have heard, and their expressions changed drastically.

The person holding the whip was the closest. He took two steps forward and covered Li Wei's mouth.

The clerk who was holding the pen and responsible for recording didn't care about the records anymore. He quickly found a cloth ball and sealed Li Wei's mouth.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Take him here, no one is allowed to approach him without my permission!"

"Yes!" The subordinate responded and took Li Wei into a remote single cell inside.

Li Wei was treated inexplicably and could not speak.

After taking Li Wei away, Mao Xiang sat down with a frown. It was not clear whether this incident was true or not, but he felt that he probably did not run away. This was too similar to Zhu Yuanzhang's behavior. After so many years of planning, it was impossible to just To kill a Hu Weiyong.

The most important thing now is to report to His Majesty quickly. I hope that for the sake of your loyalty, Your Majesty will not kill people and silence them.

Mao Xiang stood up and looked at several of his subordinates. These people all knew that he was in trouble, and they all stared at the leader eagerly to make up his mind.

"Keep him under my watch. You are not allowed to talk to him anymore. I will go into the palace and report to Your Majesty. You can stay here before I come back. Don't go anywhere."

Mao Xiang ordered.

These people suddenly showed bitter expressions on their faces, which was equivalent to imprisoning them, but they did not dare to resist and could only respond respectfully.

Mao Xiang went out, closed the door, and dispatched some soldiers to guard it, strictly prohibiting anyone from entering or exiting, then mounted his horse and rushed to the palace.
