Father can be an enemy to the country

Both of them are extremely energetic workaholics. They worked all night to collect all the physical evidence recovered from Liao Yongzhong's mansion.

all over.

After reading the last piece of evidence, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, stared like a rabbit and said, "Xiao Liao deserves to die!"

"Yes." Hu Weiyong wiped his eyes with a handkerchief, opened his eyes wide and said, "This is shocking, I have nothing to say."

As he spoke, he pointed at one of the boxes and said, "There is also this one, I dare not even look at it."

Inside were some over-made cups, vessels, saddles, bridles, stirrups, etc. They were either made of bright yellow or had dragon and phoenix designs on them, but they were all not for the use of ministers.

"The guards who raided the house said that the big bed he slept on was carved with dragons and phoenixes, and was even grander than our dragon bed." Zhu Yuanzhang said bitterly: "They couldn't get out even if they wanted to carry him back."

As he spoke, he spat: "Two people can sleep at most, why do you need such a big bed?"

"Haha..." Hu Weiyong laughed dryly, thinking that Your Majesty, you are very good at giving birth to a son, but he is not as good as the people below us.

"That's it, he still wants to compare himself to Han Xin, and wants to force us to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty?!" Zhu Yuanzhang spat fiercely: "He is worthy of embroidering peonies on a linen handkerchief!"

"The magnanimity and benevolence of the superiors far exceed those of Han Gao. It's a pity that some people are self-reliant on their merits and regard the emperor's repeated warnings as nothing. They clearly have themselves to blame, but they blame the superiors. It's really hateful and ridiculous!" Hu Weiyong said with the same enemy.

"Oh, we still don't want to start this." Zhu Yuanzhang leaned back on the dragon chair, melancholy.

People change, and their ideas are completely different at different stages. At least for now, Boss Zhu still wants to learn from Guangwu and Taizong, who started well and ended well with his old brothers; no matter how bad things happen, he still wants to be like Zhao Da, who can at least end with dignity.

Who wouldn’t want to be a good person if they could? Zhu Yuanzhang even forgave Mr. Liu, who had abused him, and he sincerely wanted to be a benevolent king.

"Nothing can be done..." He was filled with murderous intent at this moment, but it was also an indisputable fact.

Hu Weiyong quietly watched the emperor struggling there.

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang stopped the battle between heaven and man and turned his attention back to the two remaining letters.

"One last thing, what do you think about this?" He tapped the scraps of paper with his fingers and asked in a low voice.

"Back to the top, I think it's very strange." Hu Weiyong seemed to consider every word carefully and said:

"Actually, many of the letters are...problematic. But after Marquis Deqing's family learned about his accident, why didn't they burn them all together, but only burned these two letters?"

"Perhaps he feels that nothing else matters, these two letters are the only ones that are fatal." Zhu Yuanzhang's sleepiness disappeared, and his eyes like a falcon once again shot out cold light.

"These two letters were burnt in such a hurry. Most likely they were burned temporarily because they heard that the house was going to be ransacked. What is there that is so shameful?" Hu Weiyong followed the emperor's words and carefully guided them.

"What else can it be!" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said with murderous intent: "Apart from that matter, what else do they have in common?"

"What the superior said is that Liu Bowen has always been arrogant and only associates with those literati. Even the Korean father-in-law doesn't take him seriously, let alone the vulgar warriors." Hu Weiyong nodded and said: "It seems that it is the only thing. , can bring him into contact with Marquis Deqing."

As he said this, he pretended to be humane and said, "But the matter is too big to rely solely on guesswork. Do you want to ask the Marquis Deqing's family?"

"No." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head slowly. "No one will admit that he did it unless his whole family is arrested and tortured."

"But the impact would be too great." Hu Weiyong sighed.

"Yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. Yesterday at the court meeting, the princes and princes in Beijing took turns interceding with Liao Yongzhong. Even his brothers-in-law Li Zhen and Bao'er, as well as Xu Da, Tang He, the most staunch royalists, all said that Liao Yongzhong was drunk and was incapable of doing anything. , please forgive him once more.

I was already under tremendous pressure when I raided his home today. If I were to interrogate Liao Yongzhong's family again, Xungui would probably take further action.

"Ask Xiao Liao?" Hu Weiyong suggested in a low voice.

"It's useless. He is an iron-clad King Kong. If you don't want to say it, you won't say it even if you kill him." Zhu Yuanzhang still shook his head.

"Then there is only one last person left, you can ask." Hu Weiyong said calmly.

"You mean Liu Xian...ji?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him with complicated eyes.

"Yes, but Uncle Chengyi is ill in bed, so it's not easy to disturb him." Hu Weiyong hurriedly pulled back his hand.

"Yes, it seems that he is really ill this time..." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes became darker and darker, like a black hole that could swallow everything.

At this time, the Jingyang Bell rang at the Meridian Gate, indicating that it was time to go to court.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and said casually:

"Tomorrow, I'll bring an imperial doctor to see him for us. If it's suitable, you can ask. If it's not suitable, just wait until he recovers."

"According to the order." Hu Weiyong responded, as if he had taken on an ordinary errand, nothing out of the ordinary.

"Your Majesty, be careful where you step." He leaned forward and followed Zhu Yuanzhang step by step out of Wuying Hall and headed for Fengtian Gate.

After going to court, Hu Weiyong yawned repeatedly and said to Zhongshu Lang who came to pick him up:

"I stayed up all night with my boss last night. We can't stand it anymore, so we won't go to the province."

"Yes, Prime Minister, please go home and have a good rest." The Zhongshu Lang quickly helped him open the door curtain of the donkey cart.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not like sedan chairs and believed that they were a sign of corruption. In the sixth year of Hongwu's reign, he simply stipulated that only old and disabled officials and women could ride in sedan chairs, and the rest could only use carriages and horses.

As the prime minister, Hu Weiyong naturally had to set an example, so he used a simple and shabby donkey cart instead.

After sitting in the carriage, he seemed to have remembered something, and turned his head to the Zhongshu Lang and said: "Go to Tai Hospital and tell Judge Zhou to ask for leave tomorrow, and then tell him to follow the truth to see Uncle Chengyi."

"Yes, Prime Minister." Zhongshu Lang responded softly.

"Go." Hu Weiyong put down the sedan curtain and swayed back to his home in the donkey cart.

Main hall.

His Royal Highness the King of Chu spent another absent-minded day.

The fourth brother could tell that since Liu Ji fell ill, he had been absent-minded.

"Hey, Lao Liu, are you and Mr. Liu still having a fight? Why do you seem to have lost your soul when he is gone?"

"Not at all. We have been in class since the second day of the new year, shouldn't we be like this?" Zhu Zhen muttered depressedly while packing his schoolbag: "Students work so hard, they should have a winter vacation."

"Winter vacation, this is a good idea. It's so cold in winter, so we shouldn't go to school." The second brother was happy when he heard it. He never brought books home, so he didn't have a school bag to pack.

"The summer is so hot, do you want me to have a summer vacation?" The third brother put his schoolbag under his arm and said sarcastically.

"Summer, summer vacation, that's fine too."

"Coupled with autumn break and spring break, you can have enough fun at home all year round." The third brother laughed.

"Hmm, from now on I will be a vassal, so I will give my son a holiday." The second brother said seriously: "We have holidays in spring, summer, autumn and winter."

"Hahaha……"

The brothers came to the door of Wenhua talking and laughing. Zhu Zhen saw that in addition to Wang Defa, there was also Eunuch Yu from Shang Yao Bureau, who was also looking anxiously.

"Oh, Your Highness, Xie Ke has figured it out." Yu Men ran up quickly, bowed deeply and said, "Guess what happened."

"Has the imperial doctor asked for leave?" Zhu Zhen's eyes lit up.

"Yes, Judge Zhou will accompany Mr. Hu to see Uncle Chengyi tomorrow. Please return the leave sheet to me as soon as possible." Yu Men wiped his sweat and said, "This man is going crazy with anxiety."

The corners of His Highness King Chu's mouth curled up to the back of his head.
