Chapter 236
Fei Ju took a deep breath and asked, "Where are the transported supplies? Can they be recovered? If they can be returned to Zhao in good condition, based on your and my meritorious deeds, the guilt will be punished."

Zhu Liangzu shook his head and said: "It's late, it's just when the weather is cool, cotton clothes and quilts are very popular in the north, and they are probably sold out by now."

Seeing what Fei Ju had to say, Zhu Liangzu interrupted him irritably: "It's just a small thing, the court's salary is only so small, if we don't let us figure out a way by ourselves, we will starve to death long ago. "

Fei Ju closed his eyes and said, "Do you think His Highness will not severely punish you and me?"

Zhu Liangzu frowned. Although Fei Ju was a little indecisive, he was not a timid person. Why is he so worried now? Could it be that His Royal Highness doesn't show affection at all?
It shouldn't be, and no one will freeze to death and starve to death because of this. It's fine to turn the big things into small things and make them into nothing. At worst, they will be reprimanded and beat a few boards. Why are they kneeling in the snow without even seeing each other? up.

The more Zhu Liangzu thought about it, the more angry he became. He followed Zhu Yuanzhang and fought bloody battles all the way. He first conquered Chen Youliang, then conquered Nanchang and Jiujiang, and participated in the battle of Poyang Lake. Fang Guoying, Fang Guozhen's younger brother, was defeated and fled.He pursued to Huangyan, surrendered the defender Harlu, and seized Xianju and other counties.

In the first year of Hongwu, he followed Liao Yongzhong to attack Guangdong by sea and recruited He Zhen, the warlord of Guangdong.He then marched into Guangxi, conquered Wuzhou, killed Yuan Dynasty Shangshu Puxian Timur, and pacified Yulin, Xunxian, Guixian and other places.Soon, Zhu Liangzu and Pingzhang Yang Jing joined forces to conquer Jingjiang, and together with Liao Yongzhong captured Nanning and Xiangzhou, finally pacified the whole territory of Guangxi.

This endless bloody battle has made great contributions to the Zhu family's establishment of the country and proclaiming the emperor, and now he is humiliated because of this trivial matter?Emperor Zhu is in charge of the world, so these old brothers can't enjoy the glory and wealth?

Fei Ju, Marquis of Pingliang, didn't say anything more. He already felt the emotions of Marquis Yongjia. This idiot has been far away from the capital for too long. Being caught is a thorn in the flesh, and Zhengchou has no chance to clean it up.

Quan Xu went back to the house and went to Zhu Biao to report. Zhu Biao frowned in disgust when he heard that Zhu Liangzu dared to be dissatisfied.

But this is also the normal state of nobles. Most of them only remember their hard work and achievements, and feel that Emperor Zhu is sitting in the world, and it is nothing for them to follow along.

But the emperor has long distributed titles and official positions according to their merits, that is to say, you have been rewarded for your achievements, but now you are still unsatisfied with corruption.

Just like Zhu Liangzu was awarded the title of military official, Ronglu doctor, Zhuguo, Yongjiahou, Shilu [-] shi, and hereditary inheritance from his descendants. These are completely enough for his family, but But now they still snatch food from the mouths of the people.

However, how to deal with the two Marquises now depends on the documents sent by the court. Pingliang Marquis Fei Ju is okay to say, after all, he is now under Zhu Biao's command, and no one will gossip if the treatment is serious.

However, the crime of Yongjiahou has not been confirmed by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and he himself is the general guarding Xuzhou, directly under the emperor. Zhu Biao can reprimand and beat him, but he has to go through the court if he wants to be convicted and severely punished.

Zhu Biao will not easily break the rules because of his own emotions. His every move will affect many people and things. If he takes the lead in disregarding the law, then other princes will follow suit, and even his prince will not be able to do so in the future. With his consent, punish Xungui arbitrarily?
So Zhu Biao is just letting them suffer. How to deal with it depends on Zhu Yuanzhang's intentions. He is just worried about whether his father will be punished lightly. Lao Zhu is still in a relatively tolerant stage for the nobles. .

On the one hand, it is because the world is not yet completely peaceful, and sooner or later there will be wars to be fought in the western regions of Bashu, Yunnan, and the northern grasslands. In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang does not want to startle the snakes.

The other is Zhu Liangzu, who has always been appreciated and valued by Zhu Yuanzhang because of his bravery and skill in battle and his outstanding achievements. He even regarded him as Wei Chigong of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Liangzu was originally the marshal of the righteous soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty, but was captured by Zhu Yuanzhang in 1356.Zhu Yuanzhang liked Zhu Liangzu's bravery and fighting skills very much. After a scene of loosening the ties by himself, he ordered Zhu Liangzu to remain in his original position.

However, Zhu Liangzu was a half-hearted person. After working under Zhu Yuanzhang for a few months, he returned to the embrace of the Yuan Dynasty and defeated Zhu Yuanzhang's army several times.

In 1357, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Xu Da to lead an army to besiege Ningguo, which Zhu Liangzu occupied.

Kneeling in front of Zhu Yuanzhang for the second time, Zhu Liangzu said solemnly: "If you live, you will do your best, and if you die, you will die!": Zhu Yuanzhang released him again regardless of the past, and reused him.

In the future, Zhu Liangzu did not live up to this kindness, and he made outstanding contributions in the bloody battle, but it is a pity that the eldest brother did not have a good end in the end. Zhu Biao can remember him because he was a very distinctive honorary man who died in the Hongwu Dynasty. Expensive.

During his guarding in Guangdong, he colluded with the local tyrants and caused Zhu Yuanzhang to kill Daotong, the county magistrate of Panyu, and was finally recalled to Nanjing by Zhu Yuanzhang.

When the guards saw the emperor going into battle in person, their morale was greatly boosted. After getting Zhu Yuanzhang's acquiescence, they started to fight one after another. Zhu Liangzu and his son Zhu Xian were flogged to death like this.

But even so, Zhu Yuanzhang still thought of his meritorious service in the end, and still ordered him to be buried with Hou Li, and even wrote his own annals for him, which shows that Lao Zhu really liked this general of the Yuan Dynasty.

Zhu Biao sighed, and sent another report to the court. After an hour, Quan Xu called Pingliang Marquis Fei Ju in, while Yongjia Marquis continued to kneel outside.

Xungui is different from those civil servants and ministers, even Zhu Biao can't let them freeze to death alive.

After a while Fei Ju, Marquis of Pingliang, walked into the room and knelt down towards Zhu Biao. Zhu Biao glanced at him and said nothing, Fei Ju slowly raised his head and said, "Your Highness, please calm down, you will be convicted at the end."

Zhu Biao said in a calm tone: "It's not Bengong who was robbed of cotton clothes and charcoal. Why is Bengong so angry, but I'm curious that the Marquis of Pingliang's Shilu is [-] shi. Could it be that the family still can't open the pot?"

Fei Julian shuddered several times and said: "The general is greedy, and he was seduced by the Marquis of Yongjia to commit a wrong thing. Please punish him severely, the general will never complain."
