Chapter 88

In order for these warriors to understand that Zhou Dexing's punishment was more than that, Zhu Ji had no choice but to explain his intentions.

"Nowadays, many laws and regulations in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion are not yet complete. It is only as if Zhou Dexing escaped heavy punishment by chance. If he dares to commit another crime when the laws and regulations are complete in the future, he will definitely be severely punished and will not be tolerated."

Everyone standing in the hall couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Zhou Dexing's punishment was somewhat unexpected.

Although it is not clear whether Zhu Ji's treatment will work for Zhu Yuanzhang, but he has to admit that compared with Zhu Yuanzhang's frequent and severe punishment, the eldest prince's attitude towards their generals is much better.

Even though they just opened their voices to greet the eighteenth generation of Zhou Dexing's ancestors, no matter what their relationship with Zhou Dexing is, they don't want him to be punished too badly.

After all, they are all grasshoppers tied to a rope.Today is Zhou Dexing, but it may not be them in the future.

Many people have already made a decision in their hearts. If Zhou Dexing's disposal is as Zhu Ji said, then they must hold Zhu Ji's thigh tightly in the future.If Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't want to be the governor in the future, they must find ways to get Zhu Ji in charge.

Looking at each other, Geng Bingwen and Fei Ju suddenly brought everyone behind them to their knees:
"I have thanked His Royal Highness King Yong."

The good card came so suddenly, Zhu Ji couldn't understand it.

But soon he realized that these people were actually thanking him for Zhou Dexing.

Looking at the generals kneeling on the ground, Zhu Ji suddenly smiled and shook his head.

"If you are thanking me for Zhou Dexing, then there is no need. What I want to tell you is that the national law is ruthless, and the military law is stricter. Zhou Dexing is just taking advantage of the unknown law, not the way his punishment should be."

"I hope that in the future, the incident of delaying the military plane because of your own selfish desires will not happen to you again. If that time really comes, you will find that I am not as tolerant as you imagined."

Don't say it is unpredictable.

This is Zhu Ji's principle of conduct.

He knew that these martial arts should be able to understand what he was talking about.

Although his nature is very kind, if these people are not allowed to know that honest people will die when they get angry, maybe some old fritters among them will reveal their bullying and fearful nature.

After putting an end to Zhou Dexing's mistakes, Wu Xun and the guards were dismissed, leaving only Liao Yongzhong and Zhu Ji himself in the palace.

Unlike many submissive martial arts who were dealt with by Zhu Yuanzhang, Liao Yongzhong was rebellious.

The two stood quietly, looking at each other, keeping the court hall as silent as night.

It wasn't until Zhu Ji sized up the fifty-year-old Marquis Deqing that he suddenly said:
"Marquis Deqing, if you are asked to guard Dongying, would you be willing?"

Liao Yongzhong was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, he seemed to think of something, stood upright and faced Zhu Ji and asked bluntly: "Is this what Your Majesty meant?"

Obviously, Liao Yongzhong didn't think that such a decision could be made by a young child, but Zhu Ji's next answer made Liao Yongzhong's eyes narrow instantly.

"He doesn't know this yet, but I want to remind you that the best way to make a person shut up is to make him never open his mouth. As for how to make a person not open his mouth openly, in your opinion, find Is it hard to find a reason?"

The things involved in Liao Yongzhong are absolutely taboo for Zhu Yuanzhang.

It's just that after raising the butcher's knife and enjoying the once-and-for-all way of doing things, Zhu Ji doesn't know whether he can make the old man stop in time in the future.

The left and right are to let Liao Yongzhong go to a place where the old man can rest assured. Compared with Dongying under Jiuquan, Zhu Ji thinks Dongying is better.

Facing the young man in front of him who he thought was a baby, Liao Yongzhong suddenly felt that he really underestimated His Royal Highness King Yong.

Just like what Zhu Ji said, it is very easy to find a reason for wanting to shut up.

Zhu Ji has never been a person who likes to wait.

Seeing that Liao Yongzhong didn't answer his question even though his expression changed complicatedly, Zhu Ji could only make him recognize the facts again.

"I won't tempt you with benefits, I just want to tell you a fact. The old man is purely because of his face, not because he is afraid that you will announce that matter."

Liao Yongzhong thought of his end a long time ago.

But he was also sure that Zhu Yuanzhang would not dare to kill him easily.

But today is different from the past. Putting aside those naive fantasies, what His Royal Highness King Yong said in front of him is the truth.If Zhu Yuanzhang really wants to go hysterical, I'm afraid that the moment he opens his mouth, this old life will be gone.

Suppressing his fear and swallowing his saliva, Liao Yongzhong finally let go of his arrogance.

"Is your Highness's words really useful?"

The trembling voice proved that Liao Yongzhong's mind was not as calm as his face.But this is not enough to arouse Zhu Ji's complacency.

The reason why he helped Liao Yongzhong was simply because he didn't want Zhu Yuanzhang to raise his butcher knife.

"Whether it's useful or not, that's not your question. You just need to tell me whether you want to go or not."

By this time, Liao Yongzhong no longer had the upright body he had before, he was discouraged and hunched over like an ordinary old man, and his gaze towards Zhu Ji had long since lost the contempt just now.

He knew very well that the reason why Zhu Ji did this was not to save his life, but as a prince, he wanted to solve some troubles for the emperor.

It's just that Zhu Ji is not as ruthless as his emperor's father, so he showed kindness and gave himself a way out.

As for himself, he either chooses to be a bereaved dog, or he can only die inexplicably as Zhu Ji said.

Thinking of this, Liao Yongzhong completely recognized the reality.

To put it bluntly, he had no choice from beginning to end.If he dies for no apparent reason, can he live in peace?If he is dead, will Zhu Yuanzhang extend his hand to his family?

Liao Yongzhong's back was sweating coldly.

At this moment, his voice began to tremble:
"The final general wishes to follow His Royal Highness's military order to guard the silver mines in Dongying forever. If there is no order, he will never return to Beijing."

Hearing Liao Yongzhong's affirmative answer, Zhu Ji finally showed a smile on his face.

"Marquis Deqing, you will be grateful for this decision."

Watching off Liao Yongzhong who turned to leave after bowing down to him, Zhu Ji rubbed his hypocritically decorated smile, and finally couldn't help but spit:
"I will never be such a bad person again. I have done a good deed, why do I feel that my conscience is still accepting self-condemnation?"

After making a self-deprecating sentence, he looked at the empty court hall, and Zhu Ji strode out.

Since Liao Yongzhong patted his chest in front of him, he naturally wanted to beat the old man to make a round.Thinking about it carefully, this time I really dug myself a pit of shame.
