Chapter 352
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "Now send people to rush to Fengyang to spread the news of today's court affairs, as well as what Liu Chun did in Cangyang."

Zhu Biaoying said: "I understand that before we arrive in Fengyang, we must let all the people in Fengyang Mansion know about this situation, and Liu Ying will also say hello."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say any more, his son was safe and thoughtful, and he always drew inferences from one example, and he didn't need to worry too much about the details of many things.

At this time, Liu Jin came in to report again: "My lord, the three His Royal Highnesses, King Jin, King Chu, King Qi, are kneeling outside begging to see you."

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered helplessly: "Call in, there will probably be other princes and princesses in a while, so don't stop them."

Liu Jin bowed and left as promised. After a while, the three brothers of the Zhu family came in with red eyes. Zhu Biao smiled after watching for a while and then left silently. There was still a lot to do.

He went directly to the Hall of Martial Arts and sat down, and sent someone to hear Hu Weiyong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and Mao Xiang. While waiting, he ate a few pieces of snacks brought by Liu Jin. He was naturally hungry after being busy for so long.

When Zhu Biao was half full, Mao Xiang would arrive. Zhu Biao looked at his smooth salutation and said, "Excuse me, immediately use the spies and inspectors in the capital and Fengyang mansion to report today's court affairs. Spread it out, Shengjia will leave for Fengyang tomorrow, so it must be completed before Shengjia arrives."

Mao Xiang immediately promised loudly: "Your Highness, don't worry, the inspection schools in Fengyang Mansion are all over the world. Once the order arrives, it only takes three days to complete the task."

Zhu Biao's face was flat: "You go there yourself, Yihuihou has to explain the pros and cons, don't force him, but don't let him think of something he shouldn't have, understand?"

Mao Xiang's face turned bitter, but he agreed immediately. As a subject, he only had to do things according to his orders. No matter how difficult it was, he had to find a way to solve it.

After finishing talking, Mao Xiang bid farewell and left. He had to go straight to Fengyang now. At this time, he happened to meet Hu Weiyong and Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice who rushed over.

After entering the hall, Hu Weiyong and Chen Mingjie, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, bowed down and said, "I will pay my respects to His Royal Highness, Your Highness."

Zhu Biaoxu helped and said: "The two lovers are exempt from courtesy. This palace has heard about Hu Xiang's handling, and it is very safe. It's just that Dali Temple and the Tongzheng Envoy cannot be without their chief officials for a day. Let Yan Donglai and Chen Youzong be released first. , As for Yu Shi Han Qi and others, they will be temporarily detained in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment according to Hu Xiang's wishes."

Hu Weiyong also knew that it was impossible for the crown prince to abandon his two confidantes because of such a trivial matter. Moreover, Hu Weiyong also confirmed that it was just a farce. I am afraid that Han Qi and the others will be released after the matter is resolved. reputation.

Seeing that Hu Weiyong took the order, Chen Mingjie, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, stepped forward and asked, "I don't know how to arrange these censors during this period, is it according to the prisoner's charter or..."

Zhu Biao pondered for a while and said: "The Holy One is so big-minded, he intends to pardon Han Qi and the others after waking up, but after all, they are contradicting your father in court, and I stopped the order of pardoning, and let them be sober in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Well, you don’t need to be harsh during this period, but you don’t need to take care of it either.”

Hu Weiyong and Chen Mingjie immediately bowed down and said: "The sage is benevolent and generous, and your highness is pure, filial and virtuous, and he is indeed a model for ministers and others."

After finishing speaking, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment glanced at Hu Weiyong at the side and took the initiative to leave: "Then I will release Yan Donglai and Chen Youzong first, and the rest will be arranged according to His Highness's wishes."

Zhu Biao nodded, and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice bowed away. Only Hu Weiyong was left in the hall. Zhu Biao told him about the departure to Fengyang tomorrow. The prime minister.

After Hu Weiyong listened to it, he understood that Liu Chun must die, and now the royal family is going to turn this matter from disadvantage to advantage: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty and Your Highness, during the time when the second monarch leaves the capital, I will definitely appease all the officials, and there will never be any more What other voice."

Zhu Biao said with a smile: "Of course I can trust Prime Minister Hu. Recently, there are a lot of government affairs inside and outside the court, but Fengyang has to go, so it will take a lot of hard work for Prime Minister Hu."

Hu Weiyong also cupped his hands and said: "It is only natural to serve the king, and he is not afraid of hard work even if he dies. Your Highness is too polite."

Zhu Biao babbled on the ink for a while, and Hu Weiyong agreed with a smile. After he left, Zhu Biao's complexion suddenly calmed down, and Liu Jin on the side lowered his head and poured a new cup of tea.

Zhu Biao picked up the teacup and didn't drink it. It was just a habitual action. He was still thinking about the problem after leaving Beijing. It stands to reason that Zhu Biao didn't need to go. Then it is necessary to leave the supervisor to manage the country, otherwise if something goes wrong, the situation will be turned upside down.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang still decided to take him with him. The only reason was to create opportunities for Hu Weiyong. After all, with the two of them in Beijing, Hu Weiyong, the leftist, had little room to play.

At first, I was thinking about what reason to use, but now Liu Chun has sent it up, especially those censors who have been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. In the end, the power to check and balance the prime minister is gone. After tomorrow, for a period of time, In the central organization of Daming, it is Hu Weiyong who covers the sky with one hand.

This is the trap that Zhu Yuanzhang set up after encountering an accident. Hu Weiyong currently has ambitions but is still the ambition of a courtier. Now he is basically satisfied, and Lao Zhu is continuing to stimulate Hu Weiyong's ambition, hoping that his ambition will be bigger.

He is planning to use Hu Weiyong to mobilize and eliminate all disasters that could threaten his descendants in the future, so as to ensure that the regime change of the Ming Dynasty can pass smoothly within a hundred years.

It could have been Li Shanchang, after all, he is far more suitable than Hu Weiyong, especially among the nobles in Huaixi, his influence is not lower than Xu Da and others, but Lao Zhu still misses the friendship between the two of them for half a lifetime.

In addition, Li Shanchang himself discovered it in advance. This old fox knew that the future was dangerous. After he became the left prime minister, he pushed Hu Weiyong, an ambitious guy, to the front desk. .

But Hu Weiyong is different. This person is greedy for power and will never let it go easily. In addition, the court has become more and more powerful in purging officials, and the rest of the officials are trembling. Only he will not sit and wait for death. He will definitely recruit his party members, and if there are many party members, he will be out of control in the end.

There are too many involuntary things in this world. Zhao Kuangyin's yellow robe is the most typical example. He became the master of one party's power. He not only has the life and death of his subordinates, but also assumes the responsibility of leading them to enjoy the wealth and power. The two sides want each other fulfilled.
