Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 364 Changing Fate Against Heaven
A smile appeared on Li Wei's face again, he put aside Xiaoqing's matters for the time being, and came to An Qing's side.

"You have to pay attention in the future. You should be active like I arranged last time, and you should have a balanced diet..."

Li Wei held her hand and started talking.

"Oops, got it!"

An Qing interrupted impatiently, but he also felt very heartwarming.

It's rare for couples in ancient times to remain as loving as they were after several years.

Li Wei smiled and said nothing more. Anyway, he would still arrange these arrangements for Xiaoyue and Xiaohong. It didn't matter whether Anqing listened or not.

"By the way, we need to name the child quickly!" Li Wei suddenly slapped his thigh and said.

An Qing was slightly stunned: "I just got pregnant, why are you so anxious?"

Li Wei curled his lips. Of course he was so anxious to prevent someone from giving his second child a name on a whim.

Of course, Li Wei could see that she was doing this to cater to him. After all, he and An Qing had finished their food, and it was not appropriate to leave her to continue eating by herself.

The two sat opposite each other. Li Wei smiled and suddenly asked: "Xiaoqing, did you know that Xu Yao before?"

Li Wei clapped his hand, finally decided on the child's name, and then gradually breathed a sigh of relief.

When Xiao Qing heard this, his expression suddenly changed: "Old... Master, why do you ask this suddenly?"

But remembering the thought that just came to his mind, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Xiaoqing again.

Li Wei glanced at her in surprise: "Have you finished eating?"

Li Wei quickly laughed: "It's the same, Xiaoyu can also be called Yu'er, Xiaoqing can also be called Qing'er... Qing'er?"

There was sadness in Li Wei's eyes. Even if she didn't say it, he could guess some things.

After entering the room, Li Wei did not pull her to bed as anxiously as before. Instead, he sat at the table and waited for her to close the door. He pointed to the chair next to him: "Come and sit."

Do the people in Lao Zhu's family like to copy other people's names? It's not enough for the father to copy one name, the daughter also has to copy it.

Why did she meet Xu Yao from the Jiaofang Division? Could it be that she was also from the Jiaofang Division? The last thing Xu Yao said seemed to be the word "green". Why did she say this to him before she died? Why did Zhu Yuanzhang interrupt and insist on giving her death?
A series of questions emerged in his mind, vaguely pointing to a truth that he found difficult to accept.

An Qing frowned immediately after hearing this. It would be fine if it was a boy. It sounded good, but if it was a girl, calling her Xiaolan would be too tacky!
"No!" An Qing flatly denied it, thought for a moment and said, "Call me Jiaxin, she is kind, beautiful, and happy."

With that said, Li Wei got up and walked out first. Xiaoqing simply cleaned up and left with him.

Seeing this, Xiaoqing also put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"No, no, no!" Li Wei shook his head quickly, "Why don't you call me Xiaoxin? You see, the girls in our family are all juniors. Xiaoqing, Xiaohong, Xiaoyue, and you, Xiaoyu, will have to inherit it as our daughter. This is the style!”

"Okay, then come back to the room with me."

Xiao Qing's delicate body trembled slightly, and then she suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of him: "Master, forgive me, Xiao Qing... Xiao Qing..."

"Ah this..." Li Wei was stunned.

An Qing pouted and said unhappily: "My name is Yu'er, not Xiaoyu!"

"Anyway, I have to get it quickly. Let me think about it. Well, if it's a boy, let's call him Kejian. If it's a girl, well... let's call him Xiaolan."

Li Wei shook his head secretly, put aside the sudden thoughts in his mind, turned around and smiled again: "Of course, Xin'er sounds so nice!"

Xiaoqing was a little surprised, but she still came to sit next to him obediently.

"Ah."

An Qing noticed his appearance, took a chopstick of vegetables and stuffed it into his bowl, and said with some displeasure: "Eat quickly, go back to the room after eating and take a look. Anyway, it's inconvenient for me during this period. Let Xiaoqing serve you!"

Xiaoqing also noticed something strange about him today, but she didn't understand why he was like this. When he heard An Qing's words, he couldn't help but blush slightly.

"Uh, that's not what I meant." Li Wei said helplessly.

An Qing didn't listen to his excuse and just ate alone before getting up and leaving.

"Xiaoqing, are you hiding something from me?" Li Wei looked at her with burning eyes.

Xiaoqing lowered her head and just said, "Master, forgive me." Then he hesitated, bit his lip, and said nothing else.

Li Wei took a deep breath and took a few bites to deal with the problem, but he was not in the mood to continue eating.

An Qing thought about it for a while and thought it was okay, so he reluctantly agreed.

Speaking of this, Li Wei suddenly paused, repeated it in a low voice, and looked up at Xiao Qing.

Xiaoqing didn't think much, smiled, and had no objection to the title.

Xiaoqing nodded slightly.

In the evening, Li Wei, An Qing, Xiao Qing and the others ate together. He glanced at Xiao Qing from time to time and stopped chewing.

Li Wei thought for a moment and said directly.

"Then our daughter's name is Xin'er?" An Qing saw that he was halfway through his words and couldn't help but ask.

……

However, the smile on Li Wei's face gradually disappeared.

Li Wei didn't point it out. He was eager to ask some questions, and he couldn't feel at ease unless he asked the questions in his heart clearly.

When Li Wei saw her reaction, his heart suddenly sank!
Although Xiao Qing did not answer directly, her appearance said everything.

When he first traveled through time, he was imprisoned for several months, and Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly wanted to take him out for fun. Looking back now, there were many flaws.

Yingtian Mansion is at the feet of the emperor. Even if he has left the city, he should not encounter any bandits. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang chopped off the head of the man with a knife. Such a real killing, he would never have thought that it was an act.

But now that I think about it, with Zhu Yuanzhang's cruelty, if necessary, he would not hesitate even if it cost tens of millions of lives, let alone just a subordinate, maybe not even a subordinate, just get a death row prisoner.

Since the bandits are fake, then Xiaoqing is also fake.

It's all fake that his family was killed by bandits and he was the only one left!
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang made careful arrangements when he took him out that time. On the one hand, he placed spies around him, and on the other hand, he also took him to see the hardships of the people, hoping that he would be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, and take the initiative to bow at his feet.

It was a pity that he was ignorant. Although he had sympathy, he had no intention of helping the people. Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang use the knife to force him to submit.

In fact, it is not that he cannot accept these practices. The emperor basically does this anyway, and these are all routine operations.

But what makes it difficult for him to accept now is that Xiao Qing, whom he devoted everything and loved deeply, is just a spy. Then is she with him because of love, or just because of the mission?
The room fell into silence, and Li Wei looked at Xiaoqing with sad eyes for a long time.

Ever loved?
He opened his mouth, wanting to ask this question, but he was afraid of hearing an answer he didn't want to hear. In the end, he could only sigh: "Hey, get up, I don't blame you."

"I still have something to do, so go to bed first."

Then Li Wei said again, and then stood up to leave.

"master……"

Xiaoqing looked up at his leaving figure and called softly, but Li Wei didn't stop, opened the door and left the room.

The moment the door closed, Xiao Qing seemed to suddenly lose her strength and collapsed, tears welling up in her eyes.

She could feel that this door was like a chasm, shutting her and the master into two worlds. From now on, the two of them would never be the same as before.

She was just a weak woman who couldn't help herself with many things. She used to obey orders and didn't dare to say anything. But then she really put her body and mind on the master, and she was even more afraid that she would lose him if she spoke out.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang has not given her a decree for a long time. After all, the Prince Consort's Mansion is now full of female officials and servants, and what's more, there is also his own daughter Anqing. To find out the news, there is no need for her as a maid and concubine.

Originally, she thought that if things went on like this, she could pretend that nothing had happened. She was sincere to the master, and he would always love her. Whether it was a maid or a concubine, he was everything to her.

However, what was supposed to come came anyway. As the door closed, she lost her master and everything.

Grief swept over her, and Xiaoqing couldn't bear it any longer. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and tears fell down along with low sobs...

In the study, Li Wei sat alone at his desk, staring blankly ahead, with past scenes echoing in his mind.

The little girl in blue clothes, the shy and timid beauty, and the female spy who tipped off the news in the dark, these are very different images, but they all have the same face.

Did Xiaoqing ever hesitate when informing Zhu Yuanzhang?

If she really came from Jiaofangsi, had she ever been bullied before?
Even if you haven't lost your virginity, have you ever been taken advantage of by those dog officials?

Li Wei held his head in pain, trying to drive these images out of his mind, but he couldn't.

The chaotic thoughts in his mind tortured him, and after a long time, they settled into a majestic face.

"what!!"

Li Wei stood up fiercely, swept away the things on the table frantically, grabbed the books and tore them into pieces. Finally, he got up and kicked the desk to the ground.

"Do you think I'm really a toy at your mercy? Do you think I really can't change my destiny? You will regret it! You will definitely regret it!"

Li Wei roared with ferocious eyes.

It's all Zhu Yuanzhang's fault, it was all his fault!
He never thought about rebelling, but now he wants to destroy it all!
At this time, the door opened, and Abu, who was on duty outside, heard the noise and barged in. Seeing everything in the room, he was stunned for a moment and then saluted: "Master, are you okay?"

Li Wei glanced at him and said coldly: "Go and call Chen Su!"

Abu glanced at him, wondering why he suddenly acted like this, but he didn't say much, just said yes, and turned around to go out.

"Wait a minute!" Li Wei suddenly stopped him again and said in a cold voice: "No one will be allowed to approach me when I am in the study from now on. Anyone who violates this will be punished with death!"

When Abu heard this, he couldn't help being shocked. Li Wei had always been very kind to his servants in the past, and he had never given such a harsh order.

"Yes!"

Abu said yes, Li Wei waved his hand, and then he bowed and left.

Although it was already dark night, Chen Su did not dare to neglect Li Wei's call. After getting the news, he got up in a hurry and followed the people sent by Abu to the Prince Consort's house.

After a period of adjustment, Li Wei finally calmed down and sat in the room expressionlessly.

"I've met you, sir." Chen Su saluted with his hands in hand.

Li Wei nodded lightly, then looked at Abu behind him. Abu understood, immediately turned around and left, closing the door.

At this time, Li Weicai said calmly: "Help me check someone out, but be more secretive so that no one finds out."

Chen Su looked solemn and said solemnly: "Master, please give me your instructions. My subordinates will definitely take care of it."

Li Wei nodded and said softly: "This person's name is Xu Yao. She used to be Shao Wu of the Jiaofang Division. A few years ago, she was convicted and sentenced to death at the Zhengdan banquet. You should check her past and be as detailed as possible. !”

Li Wei briefly told him Xu Yao's identity. Xu Yao was a key figure. As long as she was found out, Xiao Qing's matter would be clear.

When Xu Yao died, Chen Su was just an ordinary craftsman and was very unfamiliar with this name. But it didn't matter. After some training in Jinyiwei, it was not difficult for him to check someone out, and he felt much more relaxed when he heard that this person was the Jiaofang Secretary.

Jiaofangsi is where Li Wei once stayed, and the current ambassador is Feng Jingchun, who was promoted because of him. It is easy to find the people in Jiaofangsi.

"Yes, I will find out as soon as possible!" Chen Su said.

Li Wei stared at him, narrowed his eyes, and said, "This person may have something to do with Jin Yiwei. Remember to be careful when you investigate!"

Chen Su was immediately shuddered when he heard this. He came from Jin Yiwei, so he naturally knew how powerful Jin Yiwei was. When he heard that the person Li Wei wanted to investigate was related to Jin Yiwei, he immediately became vigilant.

"My subordinates understand, please rest assured!"

Chen Su said solemnly.

Li Wei nodded lightly, and then ordered: "In this way, you can directly form an organization similar to the Jinyiwei. Personnel can be recruited from craftsmen and merchants of the chamber of commerce. There are not many people. Loyalty is the most important. Remember, you must Be careful to keep secrets, especially in the Chamber of Commerce. There are probably many Jin Yiwei spies, so be sure to avoid them!"

Chen Su raised his head and glanced at him. Hearing his instructions, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He has already had this intention, but without Li Wei's support, he has no money and no one and can't do anything. Now that he has Li Wei's orders, he can do whatever he wants!

"Yes! I obey the order!" Chen Su respectfully accepted the order.

Li Wei nodded with satisfaction before waving him to leave.

Chen Su suppressed the excitement in his heart, turned around and left, and began to carry out Li Wei's instructions.

Li Wei, on the other hand, sat alone in the study and stayed up almost all night. At Yin Shi, he directly changed into court clothes and left the mansion.

Outside the Meridian Gate, the officials arrived early as before, waiting for the morning court.

Zhu Yuanzhang could easily be late at this time, but no one dared to be late. Being late would not only deduct his salary, but also receive a royal rod. This is no joke.

When Li Wei arrived, most of the ministers were present, and everyone was surprised when they saw him.

Wang Jie and other members of the Li Party were naturally pleasantly surprised. Their reclusive prince was finally willing to come out to attend the morning court. This was a great thing for them. As long as Li Wei stopped in the court hall, even if he did not speak, It will also add a lot of confidence to them, Party Li.
