Father-in-law Zhu Di, I am so happy to marry the disfigured princess

Chapter 210 Poor Zhu Yunqi!Zhu Yuanzhang's grief!Let's remember the friendship! 【Subscribe】

"Brother-in-law, do you want to visit Jinyiwei Prison?"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaosui looked a little strange, and Zhu Gaoxu also looked over.

Li Xiao picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "Yeah, I haven't seen it before, I want to go in and have a look."

Zhu Gaoxu was a little excited, and said: "I heard that the Imperial Prison is called the Heavenly Prison. Everyone is terrified when they hear it. Some people go in, but they don't. I also want to go and see if there is any horror in the rumors."

"Brother-in-law, second brother, what are you doing?"

Zhu Gaosui shook his head and said: "The prison is so heavy that no one can enter it casually, not even a fly can fly in."

As soon as the topic changed, Zhu Gaosui looked a little airy, and threw the golden waist card of "Ruzhen in person" on the table, and said with a smile: "But there is a younger brother, I will take you to open your eyes, there is no big problem."

"Wow..." Zhu Gaoxu's gaze was immediately attracted by the golden waist badge, and he wanted to reach out and touch it.

"Hey, hey!" Zhu Gaosui took back the waist card again, carefully stuffed it back on his chest, and said angrily, "Is this something you can touch randomly?"

Zhu Gaoxu scolded: "Damn it, you are so fucking stingy!"

Zhu Gaosui smiled and said nothing, but enjoyed the feeling of being envied and hated by his second brother.

Soon, delicious dishes came to the table.

Everyone drank a glass of wine and began to enjoy the dishes with chopsticks.

Meal stewed abalone, Buddha jumps over the wall, hibiscus egg custard, teriyaki venison, steamed grouper with golden garlic, crab roe steamed bun
In particular, this stewed abalone meal is stewed with precious ingredients such as abalone, sea cucumber, scallops, etc., served with abalone sauce, chicken sauce, ham sauce and other soups, and the taste is extremely delicious.

"Well, it's not bad! The dishes in Yueyang Tower taste better than Tianfeng Restaurant in Beiping, and they're no worse than Zuixianlou in Yangzhou."

Zhu Gaoxu tasted a few mouthfuls and gave a high evaluation.

Zhu Gaosui smiled and said: "That's right, second brother, brother-in-law, my brother treats you to dinner, can you eat enough?"

Zhu Gaoxu thought that he was going to be separated from him soon, and moved, "Third brother, the second brother will remember your affection."

"Second brother, if you say this, you will be out of touch. Who should we be with?"

Zhu Gaosui chatted: "Thanks to my brother-in-law, brother-in-law's Snowflake White Salt has been implemented in various places, and now it has started production. Almost all the dishes we eat now are seasoned with Snowflake White Salt, and the salt price is also higher than the current price." White salt is only more expensive, and within a year, I am afraid that the price of salt will be the same as the price of coarse salt in the past, and the common people in the world can enjoy better salt."

"Come on, we two brothers, toast my brother-in-law."

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui held up their wine glasses: "Brother-in-law is a great talent, and will benefit the world, I will do it first as a respect!"

After speaking, the two drank it in one gulp.

Li Xiao also drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Hearing this, Li Xiao was quite happy, benefiting the common people all over the world.

Li Xiao took another bite of abalone, and said with emotion: "It's just our brothers today, without Gao Chi, he must like the dishes here."

Zhu Gaosui laughed, "Brother is busy now, so he lost weight again."

Li Xiao thought to himself, it's no wonder that he's not thin. Now that there is no cabinet, he has to use his own brain to make decisions about everything. Can his small body handle it?
Although the cabinet has advantages and disadvantages, if there is no cabinet
It is estimated that the emperors after the Ming Dynasty did not need to be easily soluble in water, and they would die from exhaustion and have a shorter life.
Afterwards, the few people ate and drank, pushing and changing cups, and the relationship became harmonious again.

During the period, Zhu Gaosui went out to the toilet and gave a note to a peddler outside.

Not long after, two Jin Yiwei in flying fish suits came to another room.

"I've seen Huang Qianhu."

The two hand over each other.

Zhu Gaosui ordered: "Take off your clothes."

Two people: "????"

Although they were a little confused, they still did it. After all, this Huang Qianhu had the badge of "As I came in person" on his waist, so he had a very powerful background.

Afterwards, Zhu Gaosui arranged a few more side dishes and told them to wait here and not allow them to leave.

Zhu Gaosui returned to Li Xiao's room with Jin Yiwei's clothes and waist badge.

He narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Brothers, we are full, let's go?"

"Third, this is a good job!"

Zhu Gaoxu praised it a lot.

Then the two changed into Jin Yiwei's clothes, and immediately disguised themselves as Jin Yiwei.

After leaving the restaurant, Zhu Gaosui led the two of them towards the Jinyiwei yamen.

On the way, Li Xiao asked curiously, "Third son, have you been serving as a Jinyi guard?"

Zhu Gaosui grinned, narrowed his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, that's exactly what I meant. At first it was just for fun, but once I became the Jinyiwei, I became addicted and couldn't stop. Secrets, handles, fall into my hands, I can handle them however I want.”

Li Xiao nodded, thinking that the third child's hobbies are indeed different from others.

In fact, thinking about it, the nine sons of Longsheng are all different. Zhu Gaoxu likes to fight and has a hot temper. This Zhu Gaosui does have some potential to be a spy, and it is also good to be a Jinyiwei.
"Then" Li Xiao whispered: "Then can you do a little favor for brother-in-law?"

"Brother-in-law, tell me." Zhu Gaosui said.

He has a deep affection for Li Xiao. When he went to Jiangnan, his brother-in-law and sister took care of him and kept thinking of him.

"Didn't the Minister of the Ministry of Officials fall down this time? I guess he will be replaced."

Li Xiao whispered: "Can you think of some way to send a small official named Yang Shiqi to Beiping, he is my friend, he is not welcome here, he is put on little shoes."

"Hey, I thought it was a big deal, it's a trivial matter!"

Zhu Gaosui said mysteriously: "Brother-in-law, to tell you the truth, if you ask me for help with such a trivial matter, you will find the right person. It is not easy to talk to elder brother Gao Chi. I can handle this matter. The test questions are spreading, and I'm holding the handle."

Li Xiao understood in seconds.

Sometimes, do these little things.

It's better to find Zhu Gaosui to be reliable, and he will do it neatly
Soon,
Several people crossed several streets.

He came to the Jinyiwei yamen.

The building is very tall and majestic. On the gate is written: Jinyiwei Yamen North Town Fusi.

In the Jinyiwei system, Nanzhen Fusi is mainly responsible for military courts, prosecutors, military police, intelligence, and military industry systems.

And Beizhen Fusi has the greatest power, anti-corruption and supervision, secret surveillance, counter-insurgency, independent investigation, arrest, interrogation, sentencing and detention (prison), vassal surveillance, and counter-espionage
As soon as Li Xiao comes,
I could feel the chilly wind blowing inside.
Zhu Gaosui led the way in front, holding the gold waist card all the way unimpeded.

On the way,

Li Xiao also met a few acquaintances.

It was Qinglong and Baihu who met in Yangzhou.

But the other party is also smart, knowing what's going on at a glance, pretending not to recognize it.

He is a state official, so he came in to inspect the work, is there any problem?
There are five checkpoints on the way to enter the prison.

Surprised and safe, he passed through layers of shackles, interrogated, and finally entered the imperial prison.

Li Xiao thought in his heart, that Lan Yu was really good at escaping from here. I'm afraid there are many masters under his command. Those masters seem to have escaped, and they will be a disaster in the future.
"By the way, brother-in-law, are you really just here to take a look?"

If Zhu Gaoxu said that, Zhu Gaosui might believe it, but his brother-in-law said that he only wanted to take a look, but he would never believe it.

"Which cell is Zhu Yunqi in? I want to meet him."

Li Xiao said the purpose of this trip.

He planned to intercede with Zhu Yunqi and take him to Peiping.

But the premise is that this kid Zhu Yunqi must live in peace, so he intends to use "He Xintong" to listen to Zhu Yunqi's inner voice.

If there is no problem, I will start interceding tomorrow morning.

The voice fell.

Both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui are very strange.

Zhu Gaosui squinted his eyes and said puzzledly: "Brother-in-law, what are you looking at this trash for? He has been imprisoned in prison for a long time, and he will be exiled to Yunnan soon, but it is strange to say that the approval document for this exile has not been issued yet."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Isn't that right? Think about it, why hasn't the approval document for his exile been issued?"

Zhu Gaosui shook his head, also wondering about this matter, but when his brother-in-law mentioned it, he muttered, "Could it be that the emperor's grandfather has softened his heart?"

Li Xiao explained: "Isn't that right? Although the emperor's grandfather was very angry with what he did, he was Zhu Biao's own son and the holy grandson after all. He was exiled in Yunnan, which almost sentenced him to death." , His Majesty has softened his heart. He is waiting for someone to intercede for him."

"So that's how it is, that's how it is."

Zhu Gaosui suddenly realized, and said: "Brother-in-law, this trick of yours is brilliant, you intend to intercede and let the emperor's grandfather remember your favor, right?"

Li Xiao nodded: "Well, but I want to see if Zhu Yunqi has any bad intentions. If so, forget it."

Zhu Gaosui said: "I understand brother-in-law, you are more and more sophisticated, I admire, admire, come, I will take you to Zhu Yunqi's cell."

Li Xiao nodded slightly, thinking, it's better to have a good wife at home to remind.

Several people came to Zhu Yunqi's cell.

There was a stinky, musty smell inside, and it was indescribably unpleasant. It was gloomy and cold inside, and people with poor health might have died of illness in it before being killed.

But fortunately, Zhu Yunqi didn't suffer any torture, and since he studied martial arts since elementary school, he ate all delicacies from mountains and seas, and his physique is not bad.

Zhu Gaosui dismissed the nearby jailers, then knocked on the prison door with the hilt of his knife, and said with a smile, "Yun Wen, look, who is here to see you?"

In the prison cell, Zhu Yunwen was unkempt, his face was black and dirty, his hands and feet were bound by iron chains, his expression was dull, and his eyes were dull. Who would have thought that such a person was still sitting on the Dragon Throne for the emperor. In the blink of an eye, he became a prisoner.

At this moment, he was lying on a broken straw mat in a daze, when he heard the sound suddenly, he was overjoyed, maybe the emperor's grandfather was soft-hearted, let him go.

These days, he misses him day and night, hoping that Zhu Yuanzhang will remember his past friendship and save his life.
He got up suddenly, crawled towards the prison door, then stood up vigorously, looked at the person who came, and as a result, he saw Li Xiao and Zhu Gaoxu, and his heart felt cold.

"Are you here to see my joke?"

Zhu Yunwen's eyes were blank and he fell limply on the ground.

"Hungry, I'll give you something to eat."

Li Xiao took out a beef patty wrapped in kraft paper from his body, which was taken out of the restaurant just now, and handed it to Zhu Yunqi.

"Will you be so kind?"

Zhu Yunqi couldn't believe it, and at the same time, he didn't want to eat the cake. He felt that the other party was here to humiliate him, but he still couldn't hold back his honesty, so he took it and devoured it hungrily.

"It smells good."

In the imperial prison, what he ate every day was leftovers, what pigs and dogs ate. For Zhu Yunwen, this beef cake is now a delicacy in heaven.

"woooooo"

While eating, Zhu Yunwen choked up and cried.

He regretted it so much. If he had kept his own place back then, had been an emperor and grandson well, and had no worries about eating and drinking, how could he have fallen to this level.

The remorse in my heart contained shame and turned into tears that kept flowing.
At this time, Li Xiao was also constantly using his Xintong to observe Zhu Yunqi's inner voice.

"Zhu Yunwen, this is for you."

Li Xiao took out another porcelain bottle from his body, and passed it through the gap in the cell.

"what is this."

After Zhu Yunwen finished eating the cake, he took the porcelain bottle with both hands.

"This is Fengyoujing. It is the latest product I have developed. When you are exiled to Yunnan, there are a lot of poisonous insects and mosquitoes. Once you bite a big bag, apply this Fengyoujing, and you will be cured soon. "

Li Xiao explained patiently.

"It was so"

Zhu Yunwen took the balm and laughed while crying. Feeling self-deprecating, he smeared the balm on his body.

"Hahahahaha, you don't have to wait until you go to Yunnan. You can use it now. There are many poisonous mosquitoes in this cell. They stare at me, and it's extremely itchy. Doctor, if the pus is festered, I'm afraid I will die in this prison before I go to Yunnan. Hehehe. I didn't expect that the first person to see me was you. It turned out to be you."

Smiling and laughing, Zhu Yunwen cried again, he used wind oil essence to smear the large wounds bitten by poisonous insects and ants on his body with wind oil essence.
[Hey, the world is impermanent, the world is impermanent. I think I, Zhu Yunqi, have today. Now that I think about it, fame and wealth are just floating clouds, and nothing is worth living well. Why did I not figure this out before, but when I figured it out, it was too late up]

After Li Xiao heard these voices, he was almost certain of a fact.

Now Zhu Yunqi has lost all hope, he no longer has any ambitions, he can only survive, and he is satisfied.

It seems that Zhu Yunqi in history escaped from the palace, then became a monk, and did not appear in the end
That being the case, it is time to intercede with the imperial grandfather.

Li Xiao smiled, looked at Zhu Yunwen and said, "Yunwen, do you want to live?"

Suddenly, Zhu Yunwen froze and remained motionless. After a while, he sighed and said, "I want to live, but no matter how I live, everyone in this world wants me to die."

Li Xiao said: "I can give you a way out."

Zhu Yunqi turned his head slowly, and said in disbelief, "What's the way out?"

Li Xiaodao: "I will intercede with the Holy Majesty to bring you to Peiping and let you live an ordinary life, but you cannot leave Peiping in this life."

Zhu Yunwen's eyes lit up, "Why are you helping? No. You shouldn't be helping me."

Li Xiao said: "Give the Holy One a favor."

Zhu Yunwen instantly understood. He looked at Li Xiao, hope appeared in his eyes, and he cried loudly: "I think, I want to live Li Xiao, I want to live."

Li Xiao listened to his voice again, and there was nothing wrong with it. Now even if he is given a poor house and a livelihood, he can live a life of self-discipline.

"Okay, then you wait."

Li Xiao got up, looked at Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, and signaled that he could leave.

The three of them walked towards the exit door.

Everyone's heart is a little heavy, winner and loser, if Zhu Yunqi wins and continues to cut down the feudal clan, maybe they are the ones staying in the cell at the moment.

But there is no if, victory is victory, history is written by the victors.
Behind him, Zhu Yunqi knelt on the ground, looked at the backs of Li Xiao and the others, and shouted:

"I want to live, I really want to live, thank you, Li Xiao."

With the bang of the cell door closing, it was isolated from the world.

The next day, early morning.

This morning, Zhu Yuanzhang also came and sat on the dragon chair, but he didn't interfere with Zhu Di, and Zhu Di was mainly sitting on the side to preside over it.

Zhu Yuanzhang was on the dragon chair, looking at the civil and military officials below, hoping that someone would come out and intercede for Zhu Yunqi, so that he could push the boat along the way and save his grandson's life.

Zhu Yunxi committed treason, an unforgivable crime, and there is no way to make concessions.

But although Zhu Yunwen made a huge mistake, Zhu Yuanzhang was also very angry, but in the end he couldn't bear it, after all, he was Biaoer's son.
Zhu Yunqi's exile date has been postponed twice by him secretly.

At this time, the early court was almost over, and Zhu Yuanzhang still hadn't waited for a person to come out to intercede.

All the officials went to the court as usual, as if they had forgotten the former supervisor of the country, and even Zhu Yunqi, who had been the emperor for a while, as if he had never appeared
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought about what Li Xiao said, no matter how the dynasties change, those aristocratic families will never change, they just changed their masters. Looking at it now, it is really so.
What a group of heartless and ungrateful people, is it true that no one pleads for Yun Wen?

That Zhu Yunwen was wrong in a thousand ways, and it was also his fault that he would not be the emperor.

But when he was in power, he didn't treat any of you badly, but I heard that they even proposed to increase your salary.
Now, everyone has forgotten about him, and no one has mentioned this matter!

What about those of you who dare to remonstrate to the death?
Stand up!

You are all only for profit, have no affection!

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted in his heart, but the court was still peaceful.
"If you have something to play, you will retreat."

Near the end of the morning court, the eunuch shouted.

All the officials are ready to retreat.

Zhu Yuanzhang is also disheartened. Tomorrow is the day when Zhu Yunwen will be exiled. No one can stand up.
And at this moment, a sound sounded.

"Wait a minute, I have something to say!"

It was Li Xiao who spoke.

Zhu Di sat in the hall, saw that it was his son-in-law, smiled and waved: "Li Xiao, what's the matter, let's talk."

Li Xiao nodded, walked in the hall, clasped his hands solemnly and said:

"I have an unfeeling request. His Royal Highness, the crown prince, was appointed as the crown prince for the first time. I hope that your highness will be kind and virtuous, regardless of past suspicions. In terms of friendship with the former prince, I will spare Zhu Yunqi and change Zhu Yunqi to exile in Yunnan, and I am willing to go to Beiping." Guard Zhu Yunqi so that no troubles arise, and live a peaceful life, Your Highness please approve!"

The voice fell.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up suddenly.

He finally waited for someone to intercede for his grandson, but he didn't expect that this person was not a courtier who had been favored before, but Li Xiao, the opposite of Zhu Yunqi! !

Zhu Di was slightly taken aback.

And the hundreds of officials in the court suddenly became noisy, discussing in low voices below.

"This Zhu Yunwen must not be let go, it will be a disaster."

"That's right, exile in Yunnan is already a special favor from His Majesty."

"How can this be possible? If you make a mistake, you should pay the price for the mistake you made."

Everyone was very surprised, how could this Li Xiao plead for the deposed grandson of the emperor, it is really unimaginable.

A member of the bureaucracy stood up and said loudly: "I don't agree with Yongle Gong's proposal. Zhu Yunwen has committed a heinous crime. Exile is already a special mercy."

Another spokesperson stood up and said: "I object, Zhu Yunqi was disrespectful to the Holy One. He ascended the throne quickly and ignored the funeral of the Holy One. It is really unfilial. Such unworthy descendants, how can they be forgiven! It is a serious crime!"

Li Xiao looked at the speaker and said, "Since it was a serious crime at the beginning, why didn't you come out to oppose it?"

"You are arrogant!"

The official said loudly: "At the beginning Zhu Yunqi was the supervisor of the country, how can we stop it?"

Other officials also said: "Yes, we wanted to stop it at the beginning, but we couldn't stop it."

"fart!"

Li Xiao walked up to the speaker in a few steps.

The officer took a few steps back, looked at Li Xiao and said, "Li Xiao, what are you doing? Above the palace, you can't commit murder, the Holy One is still watching."

"Snapped!"

Li Xiao slapped the photon in the face, blinding the other party.

Then he looked at the other opponents and scolded, "It's not that you think it's profitable to support the new emperor, so you acquiesce in this kind of thing happening. What about your justice, your righteousness? Oh. Now it's disrespectful to the Holy One, Why did you go there in the first place, the Holy Majesty has not been put into the coffin for more than ten days, did any of you stand up and say?"

An official pointed at Li Xiao and cursed: "You, Li Xiao, how dare you beat someone in front of the palace, you ignore the Holy Majesty!"

"You are ignoring the Holy One."

Li Xiao went over and kicked this person out again, and the others all turned purple with fright, and kept backing away, shrinking into a ball.

For these officials, Li Xiao didn't think he could beat them in terms of words.

Li Xiao scolded: "It is you who ignore the Holy Majesty! When I was in Yong'an County, you dared to die against me for such a trivial matter as increasing the salary of officials. Well, the Holy Majesty pretended not to be an official. Such a big disrespectful matter, You pretend to be deaf and dumb, is this your justice and righteousness? What about the momentum of remonstrance at the beginning? Huh?"

With a few words, the remaining objectors were speechless.

Even more people who wanted to object did not dare to stand up. After all, if the Duke dared to beat someone in court, who would dare to offend him?

After finishing speaking, Li Xiao cupped his hands and looked at Zhu Di, saying: "I beg Your Royal Highness, please allow me."

Hearing this, Zhu Di already knew what Li Xiao wanted to do.

He wanted to make the Holy Majesty owe a favor.

At the same time, it is also good for yourself.

Zhu Di has been feeling recently that the Holy Majesty is staying in the health hall, and he will always be in a daze occasionally, as if he is thinking about something.

Now Zhu Di suddenly understands, I am afraid that he is thinking about others when he sees things, and he recalls the scene where he once taught his grandson in the health preservation hall.
Li Xiao is trying to untie the knot in his father's heart.

If Zhu Yunqi is really executed, there may be some gaps in the relationship between me and my father, after all, the last prince is the eldest brother
But I don't care about my elder brother's son.
Li Xiao, Li Xiao, you are really a good son-in-law for Gu, you are so thoughtful for Gu.

"Li Xiao, I understand your proposal, but this matter is too important to decide alone."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Di turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, and cupped his hands: "Father, I would like to plead for Zhu Yunqi. My son and elder brother are like brothers. Zhu Yunqi is also my nephew. Now that I am in trouble, my son is also sad. Please forgive me." On the one hand, he is willing to grant Li Xiao's request. Although Zhu Yunqi made a big mistake, the crime does not deserve death."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Gaoxu also cupped his hands and said: "I implore Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

now,

The hall was silent.

All eyes were on Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very emotional, the fourth child, Li Xiao, Gao Xu is still a family of yours, our old Zhu family should not kill each other, we must remember the family love
Thousands of words, Zhu Yuanzhang can not tell.

In the end, the words came to his lips and turned into one word: "Quite!"

a quasi-word,
It represents Zhu Yuanzhang's debt to Li Xiao.

He looked at Li Xiao and was moved.

Li Xiao, oh Li Xiao, you value love and righteousness.

Today, you pleaded for our grandson and saved his life.

We remember this love!
We promise you, no matter when in the future, you will make any mistake, even if it is a heinous mistake.

We will also give you your life.
As a "quasi" fell, all the officials instantly understood Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts, prostrated themselves on the ground, and shouted loudly:
"Your Majesty is holy, His Royal Highness is magnanimous!"

"Mingnian! Jiangshan Wannian!"

The eunuch shouted:

"Retreat—"
