Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Zhu Yuanzhang stood there and paused for a long time before slowly uttering these words.

It seemed as if he had carefully considered these words over and over again.

An extremely difficult decision.

"The death penalty can be avoided, but the living punishment cannot be avoided!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang squeezed these words out from between his teeth.

It all sounded chilling and filled with an irreconcilable murderous aura.

From this we can see his anger towards Mei Yinzhi and the difficulty he faced in making this decision.

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang say this, those who wanted to plead for Mei Yin couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

I know now that everything is fine, the thing I was most worried about will not happen.

Mei Yin's life was saved.

As long as you can save your life, everything will be fine.

Under the current circumstances, this is already the best outcome.

Princess Ningguo's tears began to flow again.

Just now, she truly felt how angry her father was.

She clearly felt that she was really going to lose her husband completely this time!

Fortunately, I managed to save my family’s lives in the end.

Mei Yin was pinned down by seven or eight people.

Gag his mouth.

No matter what, he can't speak anymore.

Mei Yin’s mood at this moment was simply indescribable!

He was still struggling desperately, humming something in his mouth.

Unfortunately, I couldn't say anything and could only make meaningless humming sounds.

He is really anxious!

It was almost happening, and this time Old Zhu was really pissed off.

Old Zhu was so excited that he was about to kill himself.

You will be able to reach the top immediately.

No matter whether you choose to return to the afterlife or continue to stay in the Ming Dynasty.

There will be many rewards.

It is a height that normal people cannot reach.

As a result, now they are holding him down forcibly?
This is really hurting myself!
He struggled desperately, trying to say something else.

Tell Lao Zhu not to be scared and then chop him to death.

Just kill him!

There is no need to worry about the death penalty, but it is difficult to escape the living punishment.

Rather than being punished alive, he would rather be sentenced to death!

After seeing Mei Yin's reaction, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression remained unchanged.

But I was cursing in my heart.

This bastard is so damn rebellious!

I really don’t know what the hell this guy is thinking!

I've made such a big concession and so many people have pleaded for him, but this bastard is still struggling.

It looked like he wanted to say something more.

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang was going to pause for a moment before explaining what Mei Yin's crime was.

But now, he was not going to stop.

Say it right away.

The reason is simple. He is really worried that if the pause lasts too long, Mei Yin, that bastard, will do something excessive again.

When that time really comes, there will be no way out for me.

Things were forced to that point, and even if I didn't want to kill him anymore, there was no other way.

The only option is to kill it.

"Give this bastard fifty lashes and throw him in jail!

Let him stay in there until he dies!!”

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke out with hatred about the punishment for Mei Yin.

After hearing such a result, most of those who pleaded for Mei Yin secretly felt relieved.

Although the punishment is a bit severe, at least the person is still alive.

And with Mei Yin's identity and his abilities, as long as he's there, everything will be easy.

Next, as long as things are done well, it won’t take long to get back on your feet…

As for the fifty strokes of the cane, it sounds very heavy indeed, to the extent of beating to death.

But Zhu Yuanzhang had already made it clear before that.

This is a living crime, not a death sentence.

The executioner would naturally be careful and would not beat Mei Yin to death.

The life was really saved.

We’ll talk about the rest later.

After all, compared to what Mei Yin did.

To be honest, the punishment he received now was a bit too light.

Mei Yi, who was standing in the crowd with excitement, waiting to see the emperor kill Mei Yin, suddenly lost a lot of his mood at this moment.

Originally, when he saw this scene, he felt filled with joy.

I feel that Mei Yin's good days are over and he has successfully brought about his own death.

Moreover, he was killed in front of civil and military officials.

I just feel so good.

It's ready. When he gets home, he will prepare some good wine and food, and invite his close friend Zhu Xian to come over. He will have a good chat with him, telling him about the scene at that time, and they will not stop drinking.

But who could have imagined that there would be such a sudden turn of events, with so many people pleading for that bastard Mei Yin!
The most important thing is that after he did such a thing.

With so many people pleading for him, he actually got it.

But let’s take a look at the identities and status of the people kneeling here begging for mercy.

Especially after the prince knelt on the ground without caring about his appearance and hugged the emperor's legs to beg for mercy.

He also felt that it was reasonable for the emperor to spare Mei Yin's life.

Makes sense.

After feeling depressed, I soon became excited again.

Because through things like this, he was able to confirm that the emperor did not forgo his grudge.

I didn't kill this piece of shit.

Rather, it was only because of the favor of the Crown Prince and others that he had to temporarily swallow his anger and forgive Mei Yin.

This means that even though Mei Yin has saved his life at this time.

But his life will definitely not be easy from now on.

The emperor will remember it thoroughly.

And at this moment, no matter who it is, as long as the emperor is completely annoyed, he will remember it in his heart.

Then this person will definitely not have an easy life in the future.

Mei Yin, this bastard, is all he has for his life!
This is not very good news.

With all the things Mei Yin had done, even if he didn't die this time, he would most likely die inexplicably in prison in the future!
The seventh prince of Qi, Zhu Yu, who was standing nearby, was also filled with disappointment.

Just now, he had made full preparations.

He wanted to see Mei Yin, his damn brother-in-law, being stabbed to death by his father's sword.

As a result, his eldest brother and so many other people insisted on pleading for that bastard Mei Yin.

Thus saving the bastard's life.

My eldest brother and the others are really going too far!

Why do you have to favor this bastard?

Is this shit really that good?
Are they my brothers, or the brothers of that bastard Mei Yin?

I felt so unfair in my heart!

It’s as uncomfortable as you want!
Now, he really wished that Mei Yin would die immediately.

But unfortunately, his father and brothers didn't listen to him at all.

"Execution immediately!!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang announced the treatment for Mei Yin, he immediately shouted with a cold face.

After hearing his words, his followers immediately prepared to take action and came up to beat Mei Yin with a stick.

As a result, at this time, Crown Prince Zhu Biao knelt down again.

"Father, please suspend my sentence."

These words immediately made Zhu Yuanzhang very dissatisfied.

I couldn't help but glare at Zhu Biao.

This is a bit too much!
There are so many people here, can't you give face to me as your father?
Mei Yin, this bastard, did all these things.

It was already embarrassing enough that I spared him the death penalty!
As a result, now that I want to deal with this bastard, why is Biaoer still stopping me?

I know that Biaoer has a good relationship with this bastard and I think highly of him.

But that can’t be done!
You don't even want yourself as your father?
"Father, I know that my request is excessive.

It’s just that…the sweet potatoes have just been harvested.

There is still one final step of storage that has not been completed.

Sweet potatoes are of great importance and affect the lives of all people in the world.

It is not enough to just collect them, subsequent storage is also of paramount importance.

This sweet potato was discovered by my second brother-in-law, and he has been busy with it from the beginning to now.

In addition, he has conducted extensive research on sweet potatoes.

I learned a lot about its growth habits and many other aspects.

Now the last step has not been completed, and the task of storing the sweet potatoes still needs to be done by my second brother-in-law.

Now all the sweet potatoes in the Ming Dynasty are here.

If anything goes wrong, a lot of things can be damaged if you are not careful.

Even all of them are broken.

It will be very difficult to plant it in the spring of next year.

If such an auspicious sign were to fail, it would be a serious sin.

Therefore, I beg my father to postpone the sentence and wait until all the sweet potatoes are stored in the cellar and preserved before executing him. He should be locked up in prison forever.

No matter how Father punishes me at that time, I will never say a word."

After hearing what Crown Prince Zhu Biao said, Zhu Di and others followed suit again.

Let’s not talk about Mei Yin’s death, let’s just talk about how important sweet potatoes are.

Although to be honest, even if it was postponed for a few days, there was a high probability that he would not be able to escape the beating from Mei Yin.

However, it is also good to delay it for a few more days.

Maybe there will be some turning point in the future.

Even if there is no improvement, it is still much better than being beaten up in front of so many people like now.

It can preserve the appearance to a great extent.

After listening to what everyone said, Zhu Yuanzhang stood there for a long time without saying a word.

After a long while, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

"Okay! In that case, for Sweet Potato's sake, I'll temporarily record this punishment!"

Having said this, his voice suddenly rose again.

“But after the sweet potatoes are planted, these punishments must not be missed at all!
It needs to be put in place immediately and in full.”

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Crown Prince Zhu Biao quickly spoke up to thank Mei Yin on his behalf.

Mei Yi, who was waiting there to see Mei Yin get beaten so that he could feel good for a while, was in a very good mood!

It's like eating a fly!
Why is it so difficult to see this bastard Mei Yin get into trouble?
Either this one comes out to stop it, or that one comes out to plead for him.

Wasn’t it just that bastard Mei Yin who made some sweet potatoes?

It's not something special.

But now, so many people are praising this crap Mei Yin so highly!

Even the prince protected him like this.

That bastard Mei Yin, is he not the prince's brother-in-law, but his biological son, right?

The seventh prince of Qi, Zhu Gui, who was standing by with great interest and a bit of viciousness, was waiting to see how miserable Mei Yin would be next. He was also filled with disappointment.

I just felt that the injustice in my heart became even more serious.

Why did my father beat me like that in front of all the civil and military officials just because I broke two rotten sweet potatoes?

This bastard Mei Yin even went so far as to risk his life to advise his father.

These people are still protecting him one by one

Don't do anything with this shit!
Why!

"Go back to the palace!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a cold voice after arranging these things here.

Then he mounted his horse and left Shuangshui Village overnight.

He didn't want to stay in Shuangshui Village any longer.

I just want to get away from you immediately.

And I swore in my heart that I would never come to Shuangshui Village again!
Every time I come here, I get a death sentence. Who the hell can stand this?

The key point is that this bastard Mei Yin didn't even have any sign when he made his deathbed remonstrance.

He was fine one moment, and the next, he was dying.

When there are enough people, that's when you'll die in protest.

No matter who this happens to, no one can bear it!
Of course, he would choose to take his people away from here as soon as he finishes dealing with these things.

There is another reason.

That is, he was a little afraid that Mei Yin, that bastard, would once again make a death appeal to him after he recovered...

If it were someone else, after experiencing such an incident, they would definitely keep their mouths shut as tightly as possible.

However, if the same thing happened to Mei Yin.

That will be different.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well that Mei Yingou was a complete bastard!

Given the mad dog look he displayed, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely not hesitate at this time.

When it's time to leave, I'll leave immediately without stopping.

Otherwise, once this bastard's mouth loosens and he can speak, this guy will definitely make another death warning to himself.

So, it’s better to run first.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, there were very few people who could be treated like this by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Mei Yin can be said to be unique.

Zhu Yuanzhang had thought about it and asked how to recover the Baochao issue.

However, at this moment, how could he possibly ask Mei Yin again?
Now, after dealing with Mei Yin like this, he felt that he had lost face in front of all the ministers. If he asked Mei Yin how to solve this matter again, would he still be able to be the emperor?

How can we convince the public in the future?

So he could only leave in the middle of the night, cursing.

He still looks furious and murderous, the kind that keeps strangers away.

Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang decided to leave overnight.

Naturally, those civil and military officials did not dare to rest here.

They had no choice but to pack up their things overnight and leave Shuangshui Village with the emperor and return to the capital.

It can be said that this time, the many ministers who followed were really troubled.

We traveled dozens of miles from the capital to Shuangshui Village.

Before he could even catch his breath, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang took him to the fields to harvest sweet potatoes.

This is something that requires a lot of strength.

After the sweet potatoes are harvested, a sweet potato dinner is held.

After all this work, I feel like I can finally have a good rest.

Who could have imagined that such a shocking incident would happen again.

The emperor was so angry that he left overnight.

Many people haven't suffered this kind of suffering for many years!
But they had to follow the emperor.

Some people fell asleep in the carriage on the road.

There were even two weak people who fainted...

The seventh prince of Qi, Zhu Gui, who was beaten by Zhu Yuanzhang, felt even worse.

Many of the scars on his body were worn away by his clothes.

The waves of piercing pain made his hatred for Mei Yin even more intense.

He felt that all the suffering he had endured today was all because of that bastard Mei Yin.

If it weren't for him, I would never have done this!

The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more aggrieved I feel!
The hatred towards Mei Yin has simply reached an unprecedented level.

Zhu Biao was riding on the prince's crane carriage, and there was a hint of fatigue in his expression.

But more of it was relief.

No matter what, my second brother-in-law's life was saved.

Day by day, as a prince, he is really tired...

……

In Shuangshui Village, as Zhu Yuanzhang and many others left overnight, the place suddenly became quiet.

At this time, the ropes that had tied Mei Yin up by Zhu Di and others had been untied.

There was a cloth ball stuffed in his mouth, which was also pulled out.

But he seemed to have lost all his energy.

I lay on the bed with my arms and legs spread out, feeling extremely depressed.

Failed again!

Failed again!
孽 孽!
It's such a sin!!

Why is it so difficult to die if I want to?

This time, the timing was so good.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry again.

This was definitely the closest he had ever been to death since he made his deathbed remonstrance to Zhu Yuanzhang.

But in the end, just when he was about to succeed, he was stopped abruptly.

Don’t even mention this matter!

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

But he couldn't say anything about this.

Big Brother, Second Brother, and the others are all really doing this for my own good...

Although Mei Yin had already thought about it in his mind before doing this.

This time, he gave Zhu Yuanzhang a death-defying remonstrance, which was a good idea.

However, when I finally realized that I was only a little bit away from success, I couldn't help but feel full of regret.

He immediately made up his mind that if there was another mission to make a death-defying remonstration to Zhu Yuanzhang next time, he would do it.

Then he would see if he could find a time when only Zhu Yuanzhang and he were together to give him a death-defying remonstrance.

In this way, there will be no one to persuade you anymore.

In that case, the possibility of being solved by Lao Zhu would become even greater.

No one tried to persuade or persuade him anymore, or to find a way out for Zhu Yuanzhang.

Could it be possible that Lao Zhu could find a way out for himself and force his way down?
It's definitely not possible.

Lao Zhu is not that kind of person!

After making such a decision in his heart, Mei Yinna felt a lot less disappointed because he was just one step away from dying successfully, but the disappointment brought by failure once again disappeared.

Thinking of how Crown Prince Zhu Biao, Duke Cao and others pleaded with Zhu Yuanzhang in public in order to save their lives, I felt deeply moved.

My brothers-in-law, brothers-in-law, and my uncle-in-law are all very nice to me.

In the future, I must repay them well.

As he was thinking this, he soon remembered the Seventh and Eighth Brothers who had stood there the whole time without moving and without pleading for him.

The feeling in my heart suddenly became a little different.

As the saying goes, when a person holds a banquet and there are too many guests, he may not be able to remember who came.

But if anyone didn't come, I would remember it clearly.

By the same token, the Seventh and Eighth Brothers did not plead for mercy for him at the time, and Mei Yin also remembered the same.

I won’t talk about the eighth brother because he is young.

This guy, Lao Qi, is not young at all.

He is only one year younger than the sixth Prince of Chu, Zhu Zhen.

Even if you count it accurately, it's only a few months.

King Zhu Zhen of Chu was there pleading for him, but he seemed indifferent.

Not only that, I also noticed some changes in his expression.

It can be seen that this guy has a deep hatred for himself.

He looked as if he hated himself for not dying.

This made Mei Yin remember him even more.

By the way, from the beginning to now, he has only met Lao Qi a few times, and it is even more impossible that he has offended him.

So after thinking about it, the only reason he was beaten by Zhu Yuanzhang was because of the sweet potatoes.

Regarding the sweet potato incident, it really was right that the seventh brother got beaten.

As a result, this bastard ended up hating himself.

It's really too much.

When he was being beaten, he was also trying to persuade Lao Zhu.

Sure enough, this guy always finds easy targets to bully.

Thinking of this, Mei Yin couldn't help but think of what King Qi Zhu Bo had done.

This guy was not a good person in history.

What they did was as shabby as it could be.

He is ambitious and cruel.

After arriving at the fiefdom, he did all kinds of evil things.

The officials and people in his fiefdom were severely troubled.

During the Yongle period, there was no restraint in his actions either.

Instead, it got worse.

Privately raise assassins and death warriors.

He also used his guards to guard all the cities in his fiefdom.

No court official was allowed to enter or leave, as if he was planning to start a rebellion.

At the same time, they also detained court officials... their actions were arrogant and domineering.

However, although his ambitions are high, he is extremely timid when it comes to actually taking action.

In the end, he failed and was easily controlled by Zhu Di, and was forever demoted to a commoner...

Compared with the previous sons of Zhu Yuanzhang, the seventh guy is far inferior.

So as for Zhu Gui, this guy had a very strange way of thinking. He took the blame for being beaten for wasting sweet potatoes on himself.

Mei Yin wasn't that strange anymore.

I made the sweet potatoes myself.

The person who beat him was his father, and he couldn't afford to offend his father, so he turned his hatred towards himself.

In his opinion, his brother-in-law was just a royal consort and was far inferior to him.

He could still hate himself.

However...it's best if this guy's hatred only exists in his heart.

Don't really show it.

Don't really do anything to yourself because of it.

Otherwise, I, who in his eyes had no ability and was easy to bully, would definitely leave a particularly deep impression on him in the future.

Let him know whether his brother-in-law is easy to mess with or not.

"Husband."

Princess Ningguo brought a bowl of sugar-water eggs, came to Mei Yin, looked at him and shouted with some worry.

"My husband, please don't blame our father, it's not easy for him either.

Managing such a large country requires consideration of all aspects..."

Princess Ningguo looked at Mei Yin and explained carefully.

She was afraid that her husband would develop some resentment towards her father because of this incident.

I am even more afraid that my husband will feel uncomfortable.

For Princess Ningguo, this is actually quite difficult to do.

On one hand, there is the emperor, and on the other hand, there is her husband.

Seeing her husband lying there in a trance after his father passed away, looking like he had suffered a great shock, she was really worried.

After hearing what Princess Ningguo said, Mei Yin came back to his senses from his trance.

Looking at his young wife standing there with a worried look on her face, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

He reached out and took the sugar-coated egg from his young wife's hand and placed it on the bedside.

He held her in his arms.

“Yourong, you don’t have to think too much, and don’t worry that I will have any resentment towards my father.

If it were someone else, I would have died countless times over if I had done the things I did.

As a result, I am still alive and well until now.

From this, you can see how good my father is to me.

How could I possibly blame my father?

Moreover, when I made a death-defying remonstrance to my father just now, I said such words in front of all the officials.

It is only natural that Father would be angry."

Hearing Mei Yin say this, Princess Ningguo immediately felt relieved.

As expected, my husband did not have any rift with my father because of this.

I died admonishing my father for the sake of the world, not myself.

It was just official business, and it had nothing to do with any personal grudges against his father.

"Yourong, I made you worry about me again."

Mei Yin spoke while holding his young wife.

Upon hearing this, Princess Ningguo showed a bright smile on her face.

She kissed Mei Yin’s face and said, “My husband is a great hero, I can’t be more happy.

With my husband, Ming Dynasty will surely be able to correct many of its shortcomings in the future.

The more perfect you become, the more you will go.

My Ming Dynasty will definitely become different!"

Listening to what his young wife said, Mei Yin's heart was filled with emotion.

I just feel that I am extremely lucky to have such a considerate wife who always cares about me.

He immediately picked up the bowl of sugar-water eggs, picked up one with chopsticks, and fed it to his young wife.

Princess Ningguo took a bite, and he took a bite.

The two of them quickly finished a bowl of sugar-water eggs.

As for the impact of his death-defying remonstrance to Zhu Yuanzhang, it had disappeared without a trace in their minds at this time.

The lives of the two returned to the way they were before.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was traveling overnight, had no idea about this.

If he knew, he would be even more angry.

He was so angry that his chest was about to explode, but Mei Yin, that bastard, was acting like nothing had happened...

Afterwards, the couple talked about Zhu Yuanzhang's punishment of him this time.

Beating with a stick and going to jail.

Princess Ningguo couldn't help but feel a little worried...

……

In the palace, after traveling all night, Zhu Yuanzhang and others finally returned.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that it was getting late and his sister must have been resting.

So he did not go to Kunning Palace, but rested in Qianqing Palace.

Lying here, Zhu Yuanzhang still wished he could chop that bastard Mei Yin into pieces.

Just as I was thinking this depressedly, I heard footsteps.

There was light from lanterns shining in from outside.

Soon the door was pushed open and a person walked in. It was Queen Ma.

"Chongba, why are you back at this time?

Why don't you spend the night there?

Although you are in good health, you can't ruin it like this.

You should rest when it’s time to rest.

The days are long!
Some things don’t need to be taken so seriously…”

As soon as Queen Ma came in, a concerned voice sounded...

At almost the same time, King Zhu Gui of Chu also returned to where his mother lived.

As soon as he saw his mother, he couldn't help crying.

"Mother, you have to make the decision for the child~~" (End of this chapter)
