Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Seeing Zhu Biao finish speaking, he waved his hand and looked like he was letting go.

Li Wei curled his lips and was very disdainful of their father and son's behavior, and he was determined in his heart that he would never do such a hypocritical thing.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Wei climbed out of Xiaoqing's bed with difficulty, put on his official uniform and went to the morning court under her care.

Outside the Meridian Gate, ministers gathered in small groups waiting for the palace gate to open, and Li Wei rushed here in time.

"Master Li!"

"I've met Mr. Li..."

When everyone saw him appear, they bowed to him one after another with a respectful attitude, which was completely different from the cold eyes they used to have.

Li Wei nodded in response one by one, raised his eyes and glanced around, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart.

The Meridian Gate is still the same Meridian Gate, but now things have changed.

People who had a good relationship with him left, and some who had a bad relationship with him also left, and some really left.

Among the six tribes present, Yu Xing was lucky enough to be appointed as a Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but his foundation was shallow and he did not dare to make any mistakes.

Zhao Ben has also kept a low profile since Zhang Zongyi left, for fear that Li Wei would settle a score with him.

The other ministries basically have a good relationship with Li Wei, either they are bad friends or they are happy enemies.

If those generals are not counted, he is now considered to be in power.

Li Wei found an open space to stand near the palace gate, and Gao Xin, Chen Jing and others immediately surrounded him.

"Master Li, I still have some doubts about the imperial examination and I want to ask you for advice..."

"Sir, you also need to mention some things about the assessment..."

Gao Xin and Chen Jing bowed their hands and started talking to Li Wei in a low voice.

I said I was asking for advice, but I just wanted to see if Li Wei had any instructions. They would definitely cooperate actively.

In addition to these two ministers, others such as Wang Jie, Wu Bozong, and officials from the Ministry of Industry also gathered together with Li Wei as the center, and they were particularly conspicuous in the scene.

After Li Wei casually chatted with Gao Xin for a few words, he found that Ru Taisu hadn't come over. He was suddenly curious and looked around. He saw that Ru Taisu was standing not far or near at this time. He looked like he was not here. Very happy.

Li Wei laughed loudly at him and said, "Master Ru, why are you standing there alone? Come here and have a chat!"

Ru Taisu snorted coldly when he heard this, turned away, and was very angry at Li Wei for not telling him clearly about the land purchase before.

"Let me tell you about buying land!" Li Wei shouted again when he saw this.

When Ru Taisu heard this, his heart suddenly moved. He hesitated for a moment and then stepped closer.

"Tell me, what is the issue of investment banknotes?" Ru Taisu asked with a straight face after approaching. Li Wei smiled, stopped talking about it, and talked to him in detail.

The three ministers gathered together, which immediately attracted the attention of the ministers.

Seeing this, Chen Jing couldn't help but feel a little excited. Although he was not successfully promoted like Gao Xin, with Li Wei's power at this time, he did not take Yu Ji seriously at all. Sooner or later, this position of minister will have to be his!

In the crowd, Li Shanchang mingled with the military generals, chatting about everyday matters, without any concern for the government affairs. However, when he caught a glimpse of Li Wei who was surrounded by ministers, a smile of unknown meaning appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The lessons learned from Yang Xian and Hu Weiyong are there. In his opinion, Li Wei will be no exception. The more powerful he is at this time, the worse his fate will be in the future.

The bells, drums, and whips sounded, the palace doors opened, and everyone entered the court in sequence.

In the Fengtian Hall, Li Wei stood honestly. As a minister, there was no one blocking him in front of him. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have to look for him. He could see him just by looking up. He didn't dare to continue napping. .

The ministers carried out their duties step by step, and Li Wei listened indifferently. It was not until Wu Yong, the minister of Dali Temple, left that he cheered up.

He knew that the important point was coming. Yesterday, Zhu Biao said that Zhu Yuanzhang would deal with all the civil and military officials arrested by Mao Xiang in the morning.

"Your Majesty, the trial of Dali Temple has been completed on the case of Yangzhou colleague Zhang Cheng and others who took bribes, perverted the law and colluded with Japanese pirates to murder Li's consort. It is true that Zhang Cheng, Fan Guangyang and others colluded with each other to murder Li's consort and should be sentenced to death. Ji Gui and others have meritorious service or not. All the other generals have made mistakes and can be banished..."

Wu Yong reported the disposal suggestions to all the civil and military officials one by one.

Although Mao Xiang and his personal guards arrested the person, according to the court rules, they had no right to deal with it and could only hand it over to the yamen such as the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple for trial.

At this time, Zhang Zongyi, the Minister of Punishment, was dismissed from his post, and before the new Minister Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to be transferred from the local area arrived, this major case fell into the hands of Dali Temple.

The solution plan presented by Wu Yong is quite pertinent, and it all follows the law.

But when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was very dissatisfied and became furious: "These bastards are so audacious that they dare to murder our consort. How can they be let go so easily? The leader will be punished by his clan! The rest will be beheaded if they have any faults!"

As soon as the words fell, the officials were shocked. Wu Yong did not dare to say more, so he had to bow and say yes.

There was a commotion among the generals. The civilian officials didn't care, but many of these generals were their old subordinates. However, facing Zhu Yuanzhang who was furious at this moment, they did not dare to raise his eyebrows.

Xie Cheng and others turned their attention to Li Shanchang, hoping that he, the prince of the country, would come forward and say a few words. However, Li Shanchang did not respond. At this time, it is only right to protect oneself wisely.

However, just when everyone was silent and did not dare to speak out, they suddenly heard a loud voice: "You must not do this, Your Majesty!"

Li Wei trotted out of the office, bowed and saluted, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, these people have risked their lives for the Ming Dynasty! How can such a trivial matter as a minister lead to the death of so many military commanders and heroes? If this is really the case, then How can I feel at ease, Your Majesty? I beg Your Majesty to be merciful and spare them!"

Li Wei was sincere and showed his true feelings. He burst into tears and all the officials were shocked.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned. He hinted that this boy was begging for mercy, but he didn't let him be so grandiose!

Generals such as Li Shanchang, Xie Cheng and Zhao Yong were also surprised. Especially when Li Wei shouted excitingly about life and death, the generals felt the same and their perception of him could not help but improve greatly.

Li Shanchang also looked at Li Wei in shock. He could naturally see that this was a good opportunity to win people's hearts, but he was already jealous of His Majesty, so he naturally did not dare to speak out rashly, but Li Wei had no such scruples.

Li Wei expressed his true feelings while making an impassioned speech. Although Zhu Biao asked him to plead for mercy in order to win people's hearts, he is not that kind of person. Since he is asking for mercy, he must be "sincere" and it must not be a performance!

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the throne and watched him beating his chest and feet, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. Others didn't know, but he knew very well that this boy would come out to plead for mercy. He hinted that his elder taught him, but he didn't expect this boy to become like this. ! (End of chapter)
