The Ming Dynasty started with saving the eldest grandson

Chapter 13: Cooking Dog

Let Chen Jingke assist in the investigation?

Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly: "Since you are so indifferent to fame and wealth and want to give the credit to him, then I will make him Deputy Qianhu of Jinyiwei and be responsible for this case."

If Chen Jingke discovered the Zhao Mao Group and reported it, and then asked him to lead the investigation, all the credit would be his.

The deputy Qianhu's contribution is greater than that of you Qianhu, so what else do you want from you, Mao Xiang?
Mao Xiang could naturally hear this meaning and shuddered, "I am stupid. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly: "Humph, get out of here."

Mao Xiang hurriedly exited the hall. He didn't dare to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead until he was far away from the door.

I felt very regretful, why did I test the emperor? Isn't this looking for death?

Yes, he was testing Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude towards Chen Jingke just now.

If he didn't care, he would arrest Chen Jingke for interrogation and ask him to identify and bite the court officials.

Can save a lot of investigation time.

If Zhu Yuanzhang cares about this person very much, he will make good friends with him.

It's just that his little thoughts didn't escape Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, and he was beaten hard.

In the hall, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Mao Xiang's back with a hint of sneer on his face.

Mao Xiang also started to be dishonest. Since Jin Yiwei was officially established, he has been making small moves.

Without the consciousness of the eagle dog, there is no need to keep it.

This case must be investigated and dealt with severely. Not only the officials involved in the case must be killed, but also the wealthy households who provided money and food to make up for the shortcomings of corrupt officials must not be spared.

Just take this opportunity to attack the local gentry.

Doing so will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction among the bureaucrats and gentry, and Mao Xiang will be pushed out to quell public anger.

In just an instant, he had already made a decision in his mind.

If Mao Xiang knew that one of his temptations would lead to this result, he didn't know what he would think in his heart.

Thinking of Chen Jingke, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with contemplation.

Originally, because of the imperial complaint, he had doubts about Chen Jingke, thinking that he was taking advantage of his kindness and self-respect.

Even the queen's illness was made up by him.

Now that the Zhao Mao Group has surfaced and proved that he was not making false accusations, the situation is different again.

Although the purpose of saving the emperor's grandson was not simple, it did uncover corrupt officials for the court.

This is a credit to the royal family and the court.

And after investigation, it was found that Chen Jingke's family was only ordinary people, and his grandfather had contributed to the establishment of the Ming Dynasty.

This innocent family background further dispelled his doubts.

In the past few days, Jinyiwei has also received more detailed information. Chen Jingke has loved reading since he was a child and lives in seclusion to study medical skills.

I started writing medical books at the age of ten, and I didn’t have time to go out and make friends with all kinds of people.

Regarding where he heard about the Zhao Mao Group, Zhu Yuanzhang had already believed Chen Jingke's statement, which was just a casual chat by a sick businessman.

As for why the businessman would tell such an important thing to a young man, it is no longer important.

People's hearts are complicated. Maybe he just wanted to say something at the moment.

Of course, the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts changed so quickly was because of Queen Ma's body.

The imperial doctor has determined that the queen is ill but is helpless. The only one she can count on now is Chen Jingke.

In this case, let alone Chen Jingke, even if he had problems, Zhu Yuanzhang would still use him.Thinking of the queen's condition, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a lot heavier and got up to go to Kunning Palace.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw a young man walking in the corridor. A kind smile immediately appeared on his face:
"Hey, our dear grandson, why are you up?"

"Grandpa Huang." The young man was Zhu Xiongying. He was very happy to see Zhu Yuanzhang coming and trotted over.

"Hey, dear grandson, please be careful. Your illness is just right. You need to rest more and don't run around."

Zhu Xiongying still looked a little sluggish, but his complexion had improved a lot: "I'm better now. The imperial doctor said I don't need to take medicine anymore."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled even happier: "Really, that's great. But you still need to practice more as you recover from a long illness."

Zhu Xiongying nodded and suddenly asked: "Grandpa Huang, where is the doctor who cured me? I want to thank him in person."

Zhu Yuanzhang paused and said: "Our dear grandson is sensible. He has something to do and he will come out of the palace when he is done. It will not be too late for you to thank him then."

While they were talking, Ma Xiuying limped over and said with a smile: "Ying'er has been talking about that young man a lot in the past two days."

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed, and he said distressedly: "Is your leg cramping again?"

Ma Xiuying yawned and then said: "It's an old problem, don't worry."

Zhu Xiongying said from the side: "No, Grandma Huang's leg cramped twice last night. She shed tears of pain and didn't sleep all night."

"I had another seizure this morning. I had to be helped when I walked. I'm feeling better now."

Zhu Yuanzhang felt very distressed and glared at the attendants around him: "Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing?"

"Your Majesty, spare your life." The attendant was so frightened that his whole body trembled.

Ma Xiuying advised: "Don't blame them, I didn't let them bother you. This is an old problem, and even the doctors can't do anything about it. Telling you just makes it more troublesome."

Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "I haven't had such frequent and severe cigarettes before."

Ma Xiuying sat down on the guardrail of the corridor, "Why are you talking so loudly? Now you know, don't you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was choked and said sarcastically: "Aren't we worried about you?"

"No, let's ask Chen Jingke to come into the palace to treat you. He will definitely have a way."

Zhu Xiongying's eyes suddenly lit up. Is that young man going to enter the palace?
I can see him soon.

Ma Xiuying didn't object. She was really afraid of cramps, which were really painful.

Rather than having cramps, I am more afraid of something really going wrong with my body.

It's not that she's afraid of death, it's that she can't die too early.

Without self-restraint, Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament would kill people even more fiercely, which would affect the safety of the country.

Moreover, Xiongying was still young and almost died if he was protecting him.If he is gone, it is still unknown whether he can grow up.

So you absolutely cannot have any problems.

She had been very opposed to sending Chen Jingke out of the palace before. If she had any health problems during the period, she might be gone.

But she knew her husband better, he was a man who couldn't get the sand out of his eyes.

If he is not allowed to figure it out on his own, this thorn will always exist, and it might kill Chen Jingke one day.

Chen Jingke saved her grandson and found out about her illness. How could she repay kindness with hatred?

Now it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang has figured it out, otherwise he would not call people over so simply.

Thinking of this, she felt relieved.

Zhu Yuanzhang's order was immediately implemented, and the eunuch who delivered the order soon appeared at Chen Jingke's home.
