I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 38 For the monarch, there is no good or bad subject, only useful or useless

After chatting for a while, Zhu Zhangui and Ji Gang entered the Jinyiwei Imperial Prison chatting and laughing, and went down to the bottom of the Jinyiwei Imperial Prison.

When the two Jinyi guards carried Emperor Jianwen to the cell, Zhu Zhangui personally stepped forward to untie him.

"Uncle, my nephew's room is a bit tight recently, there is no room for you, so you can stay here for a while."

Ji Gang at the door was shocked when he heard this address.

The only person who can make Zhu Zhangui, the second emperor's grandson, be called Uncle and still be placed in this place is the disappeared Emperor Jianwen.

Emperor Jianwen is so important that Zhu Di asked Zhu Zhangui to arrange it.It is hard for Ji Gang to imagine how far this trust has reached.

Plus Zhu Zhangui's promise just now.

It seems that Zhu Zhangui, the grandson, may not be able to escape.

Originally, Ji Gang wanted to use his niece to appease Zhu Zhangui temporarily, and take revenge when he finds an opportunity later.

But now it seems that his plan has to be changed.

The kid in front of him is no worse than Zhu Di in terms of cruelty.

If Zhu Di did not know what he had done in the past few years, Ji Gang would not believe it at all.

The reason why Zhu Di hasn't found himself to settle the case until now is because he still has value to use, or it hasn't touched Zhu Di's bottom line.

But the heart of an emperor is hard to guess.

Ji Gang couldn't guarantee that one day Zhu Di would attack him.

Therefore, it is imperative to have a backstage that can save one's own life.

Ji Gang originally wanted to seek refuge with the prince, but he was not on the same side as the prince, and the prince didn't like him at all. Although he was polite when they met, Ji Gang could clearly see the meaning of rejecting people thousands of miles away.

The same is true for the great emperor's grandson, who looks down on himself to the bottom of his heart.

Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui, although he intends to win him over, but Ji Gang is not optimistic about him.

In the end, he couldn't find anyone to turn to, so Ji Gang chose Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Han.

But Zhu Gaoxu is arrogant, and he also looks down on a person like him who engages in conspiracy and schemes.

Although they called him brother and brother, they didn't regard him as their own at all.

It was precisely because of these reasons that Ji Gang planned to rebel when Zhu Di turned his face in the future.

But there is no way out.

Just when he was about to give up on himself and finally go crazy.

Zhu Zhangui appeared in front of him and extended an olive branch to him.

Ji Gang didn't know much about Zhu Zhangui.

But after the brief contact just now, Ji Gang saw that Zhu Zhangui was a very ambitious person.

It doesn't matter whether the income is useful or not, and it doesn't matter whether the person is a good person or a bad person.

Moreover, he is cruel and merciless, and will never show mercy.

He clearly felt just now that if he dared to say a few more words, Zhu Zhangui would really shoot him.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking?"

Just when Ji Gang fell into deep thought, Zhu Zhangui, who had settled down with Emperor Jianwen, came out.

"It's nothing, I'm just shocked."

Zhu Zhangui chuckled, stretched his arms around Ji Gang's shoulders, and said as he walked out, "You just have to know it in your own mind, but if you say it, you'll lose your head."

Ji Gang nodded quickly.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I didn't see or hear anything today."

Zhu Zhangui nodded, and leaned into Ji Gang's ear and whispered: "No one can come here to see him except me and my grandfather. If he needs anything, you can send someone to him. At the same time, send someone Keep an eye on him, don't let him die, not even get sick."

Ji Gang quickly nodded in response.

Patting Ji Gang on the shoulder, Zhu Zhangui said with a serious expression: "He is going to die, and I can't even keep you, so you have to put this matter first."

"I will remember it in my heart!"

"Also, you danced too hard before, and the old man is already a little dissatisfied with you. If it weren't for your usefulness, you would have been ransacked and exterminated long ago."

When Ji Gang heard this, layers of cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and he knelt down in front of Zhu Zhangui.

"Your Highness, please save my life."

Reaching out to pick up Ji Gang, Zhu Zhangui said with a serious expression: "Old Ji, you have to remember that there are only two kinds of people in this world for the monarch, one is useful and the other is useless."

"If a person is useful, even if he is full of evil, the monarch will turn a blind eye."

"If a person is useless, even if he is a peerless good person, as long as he touches the majesty of the king, he must die."

"The old man knows a lot about what you did before. The reason why he didn't touch you is because you are still useful."

"But you've been a little out of sorts recently, and dared to hoard armor at home and raise dead soldiers."

Ji Gang's body trembled, he didn't expect Zhu Zhangui to be aware of such a hidden thing.

"Your Highness, please save me. I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Highness."

Ji Gang knelt down again.

Zhu Zhangui did not reach out to pull this time, but squatted in front of the other party, and said in a low voice: "I will send someone to take over your armor and dead soldiers. After your niece enters the palace, I will teach you a way to make up for it." Opportunity."

Putting his hand on Ji Gang's shoulder, Zhu Zhangui stared into Ji Gang's eyes, "As long as you are loyal to me, I will protect you as Ji Gang and make your family prosperous forever."

There was a light of surprise in Ji Gang's eyes, and he kowtowed hard.

"I thank Your Highness for your grace!"

Zhu Zhangui smiled slightly.

"I don't know if your allegiance is true or just perfunctory."

"minister…"

Just as Ji Gang was about to explain, Zhu Zhangui stopped him with his hand.

"But I don't care about these, as long as you complete what I ordered, it doesn't matter even if you don't have me in your heart."

"Now in the whole of Ming Dynasty, everyone wants to kill you, everyone hates you and fears you. Without a backstage, once you lose power, you will die without a place to die."

"My father's personality won't accept you. My second uncle doesn't like you who engage in conspiracies and tricks. The third uncle is like you, and doesn't believe in people like you at all. Although the old man appreciates your ability, but I really hate your presumptuous behavior, thinking that when the matter is over, I will push you out to quell public anger. Not to mention my elder brother, he is a very arrogant person, and he doesn't even look down on people like you, let alone use you like this people."

A wry smile appeared on Ji Gang's face.

Zhu Zhangui was right, he chose to give up on himself precisely because he had no choice, and planned to go crazy again before he died.

"Except for me in the entire Ming Dynasty, no one can save your life."

"I don't know if there will be a day in the future when I will kill you to appease public anger, but as long as you serve me faithfully and your niece satisfies me, I can allow you to feign death and find a place to enjoy your old age without moving Nothing about your family."

"That's all I have to say. How to choose depends on what you think."

"I swear allegiance to Your Highness to the death."

Ji Gang took a deep breath, and after a little thought, he threw himself into the salute of allegiance.

Zhu Zhangui nodded in satisfaction, glanced at the prisoners in the surrounding cells and the Jinyi guards on duty, leaned into Ji Gang's ear and whispered: "Clean up."

That night, a fire broke out on the ground floor of Jinyiwei Prison, killing dozens of prisoners and dozens of Jinyiwei.
