Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 732: Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife also plan to run away
Almost as soon as the Hu family left the city gate, the news was delivered to the palace.

The father and son of the Zhu family, who were preparing to go to court, received the news at the same time.

Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang was preparing to pass on the throne, so many news were not hidden from Zhu Biao, otherwise Zhu Biao would have known about it later.

"No! Anqing and the others are gone?"

"What about the Crown Princess?"

"The Crown Princess stayed at the Princess's residence last night!"

Zhu Biao's head was full of question marks at this moment.

He knew that Hu Xinyue stayed overnight at the princess's residence last night.

It's impossible that Mr. Hu took his son and daughter-in-law to the so-called farm outside the city to spend the winter and took his wife with him.

This doesn't make sense.

Fortunately, the Jinyiwei who came to report the news was also a Jiling, and he quickly found a way out.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess is on her way back to the palace now. I think she will be at the East Palace soon."

Zhu Biao smacked his lips speechlessly, then turned his head to look at his father.

However, he found that his father was not as furious as he had imagined, but looked calm instead.

After waving his hand to send the Jinyiwei away, he looked at his father cautiously.

"Dad, won't you arrange for someone to bring Anqing and the others back?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao and sneered unhappily.

"how?"

"In your impression, am I such a hot-tempered person?"

"This is obviously a way for Weiyong and his family to avoid suspicion. How can we not understand?"

"how?"

"They are trying to avoid suspicion, but we still have to bring them back?"

"Are we so unreasonable?"

Zhu Biao didn't know how to respond at this moment.

His fat face turned red from holding it in.

He almost stood up and yelled.

"Dad, do you want to think about your past temper?"

'Do you want to think about how many unreasonable things you have done in the past? '

'Do you want to think about how many times you've lost your temper with your uncle?'

'...'

Unfortunately, he could only think about these words.

If this were really said out loud, it would be too disrespectful to his father, Emperor Hongwu.

If you hit someone, you should hit him in the face. Why would you poke someone in the spine in front of him?

Therefore, he could only bow his head and admit his mistake honestly.

"It is your son who presumes to take the emperor's will!"

Seeing that his fat son had surrendered, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, but still gave some instructions.

"Well, it's good that Biaoer knows his mistake!"

"But, from now on, even if you become the emperor, you still have to be careful!"

"We can't ruin the reputation of the Hongwu Emperor, the founder of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Even if we don't say I'm wise and brave, I'm still a person who has made great contributions to the country. Don't make me look like a tyrant, bloodthirsty person with a bad temper!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang said this, Zhu Biao fell silent again.

He glanced at his father silently and quietly moved two steps to the side.

It looked like he was afraid of getting hit and moved slightly to the side.

Zhu Yuanzhang was originally very happy, but when he saw his fat son's appearance, he kicked him without thinking.

Zhu Yuanzhang fought his way up to become the emperor. Even though he lives a life of luxury and rarely fights, his physical strength is still there.

Even though he used less force, the kick still made Zhu Biao stagger. This made Zhu Biao feel wronged.

"Dad, what should I do with what you just said?"

"Don't talk about what you did in the past. Let's talk about what we are going to do next. What good reputation can those scholars who write history books give us after we are done?"

"You are making things difficult for the child!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he found it quite reasonable.

But Zhu Yuanzhang thought again, bullshit!
When did Zhu Yuanzhang ever speak the truth?
He will only be reasonable when he wants to be reasonable!

When he doesn't want to reason, you can only do as he tells you!
The kid in front of me obviously doesn't intend to listen to his father.

When Zhu Yuanzhang thought of this, he felt disgusted!
No!

Why should we work so hard for this fat boy and leave all the fame and benefits to him?

It is true that children are the debt of their parents, but is our debt too heavy?
Zhu Yuanzhang became angrier the more he thought about it.

When he thought again about how Mr. Hu had run away with his entire family today, he suddenly had an idea.

He adjusted his expression and looked at Zhu Biao in an unfathomable manner.

"Well, Biao'er, why do you think Weiyong and his family left in such a hurry today?"

Zhu Biao frowned and said with some disapproval.

"Isn't it just to avoid suspicion?"

"Uncle has been doing similar things repeatedly since he resigned from office. Isn't it just to avoid suspicion and protect himself?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"That's right, Wei Yong is indeed trying to avoid suspicion and protect himself!"

"Because it was Weiyong who first proposed the abdication between us two!"

"If he gets involved in this now, even if he has no other intentions, who would believe it?"

"So, not only does he have to avoid suspicion himself, but he also has to avoid suspicion with his kid and Anqing."

"I'm sure you've seen the report Mao Xiang sent over. The princess's mansion in Anqing has been in turmoil recently."

"Humph, a bunch of people with ulterior motives who dare not say a word in front of us actually found Anqing!"

"But they don't think about it. With Wei Yong behind the scenes, how could they fall for such a trick?"

"Look, Weiyong took them away right after he entered the city!"

Zhu Biao nodded thoughtfully.

Instead of feeling disappointed about the departure of Mr. Hu and his family, he felt relieved.

Because this move undoubtedly proves thoroughly that Mr. Hu really made the suggestion out of good intentions.

As for whether to use it or not and how to use it, it all depends on the two of them to discuss it themselves.

Even if we want to reform everything in the world now, it is their job.

If Master Hu really gets involved, there’s no telling what the end result will be.

If it is accomplished, who will get the credit?
Don’t think that the emperor and the prince don’t care about face and achievements!
Who doesn’t want to have a better reputation in history books?

But... Zhu Biao looked at his father with suspicion.

What does my dad want to do by saying this now?

But Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and patted Zhu Biao's shoulder with a relaxed look.

"Well, I've told you all this, actually just to tell you that I'm leaving too."

"Not only are we going, we're also planning to take your mother with us."

"We plan to take your mother to live in Hu's manor for a few days."

"I'll leave this palace to you!"

"By the way, we won't be attending the court meeting today. We have to go pack our bags with your mother!"

"Well, Biao'er, you work hard, we are counting on you!"

After saying this, without even waiting for Zhu Biao's reply, he suddenly turned and walked towards the harem, apparently intending to take Empress Ma to 'pack her luggage'.

Zhu Biao was left with a confused look on his face.

What?
Father ran away? (End of this chapter)
