People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

"Tell me, what's going on..."

Regarding Zhang Yi, although the two princes did not know the details as well as Zhu Biao, they could vaguely feel that their father and Brother Huang valued him.

As far as personal relationship is concerned, with Zhang Yi's familiar temperament, the relationship between the two of them and Zhang Yi can be considered excellent.

They heard that Zhang Yi was in prison, so they were naturally very concerned.

Especially Zhu Xi, last time Zhang Yi predicted that he would have a catastrophe next year.

Although this matter will not weigh on his heart and make him breathless, it is somewhat mindful.

Now, Zhang Yi is willing to tell the truth, at least from this matter, he has the motivation to save Zhang Yi.

"You go to the individual, go to the magistrate's yamen and ask!"

As a prince, he cannot easily interfere in the government.

But it's okay to convey his attitude on some matters. Zhu Xi knew how to measure it. He asked Meng Yao to tell the ins and outs of the matter after asking someone to ask.

I thought that a six or seven-year-old child could not tell clearly.

It's just that when Xiao Mengyao opened her mouth, everyone present was surprised by her.

Starting from her father being beaten to death, she explained the ins and outs of the matter one by one.

And also confessed his relationship with Zhang Yi.

Even ordinary official reports are not so clearly adjusted.

"The people around Zhang Yi are not simple, but unfortunately you are not a man!"

Zhu Xi praised casually, then bowed his head in thought.

Among the people present, only he was twelve or thirteen years old, close to an adult in the social sense, with some independent thoughts.

But Zhu Xi couldn't grasp it himself. Was Zhang Yi wronged?
He didn't know Lao Mo's identity, and naturally he didn't know the temperament of other people either.

If Zhang Yi himself had a problem, he wouldn't believe it.

However, it seems that it is not impossible for someone around Zhang Yi to commit adultery. Even if he appreciates the little girl in front of him, he will not rely on his good impression of a girl to judge the character of the other's mother.

Zhu Xi took a deep breath and said:

"The prince knows what you said, but today is about to have a curfew. I will beg the emperor to show him early tomorrow morning!"

Xiao Mengyao knew that this was already the best result!
She bent down and knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times to the two princes.

Then follow Kong Na to leave.

It was getting late, and it was too late to go back to the pure heart meditation.

Under Kong Na's persuasion, she could only stay temporarily in Kong Mansion.

Along the way, the little girl's eyes were red and tears were falling down.

Conne was about to comfort her, but she wiped away her tears and cheered herself up:
"I can't cry, the little landlord brother and mother are still waiting for Meng Yao to rescue..."

"Zhang Yi didn't misunderstand the person, and you didn't waste his hard work in cultivating him!"

Kong Na knew that Zhang Yi had always taken care of Meng Yao as his younger sister, teaching her to read and teach her principles.

He only thought that Zhang Yi's actions were superfluous.

The final destination of a woman is to be a husband and a child, the more she knows, the greater her desire, and finally...

The carriage stopped at the gate of Confucius Mansion.

The butler ran out immediately.

"Master, there are guests waiting for you!"

"Who?"

Kong Na asked, and the steward replied respectfully:
"It was Mr. Liu and Mr. Xu who came here in person, and the Xinguo Mansion and Chang Mansion also sent people to inquire about the situation!"

"go in!"

Those people who have been in contact with Zhang Yi have lived up to his expectations after all.

Although Kong Na knew that Zhang Yi would be fine...

But also happy for Zhang Yi.

When he came to the living room, Yu Shi Zhongcheng Liu Ji was sitting there, and beside him was his teacher Xu Cunren.

"Mr. Liu, teacher..."

Kong Na bowed and saluted, Xu Cunren waved his hands:

"Let's gossip, curfew is coming soon, don't waste time!"

Kong Na heard the words, explained the matter clearly in a few words, and called Xiao Mengyao over.

Meng Yao was also very organized and explained the matter in the courtroom.

"No reason!"

Being able to hang out in the officialdom for many years, even Xu Cunren knows the way of it very well.

Different from the innocence of Zhu Yu and Zhu Fang, he knew that the magistrate was biased when he heard the case.

"This matter is not difficult to investigate, early tomorrow morning, I will enter the palace to pay him a fortune!
The Yingtian government office is a place where black and white are turned upside down..."

Unlike Xu Cunren's righteous indignation, Liu Ji appeared calm.

Both Chang Yuchun Mansion and Lord Xin Guo came here.

After listening to the ins and outs, the people from Changfu left first.

People from Xinguo's mansion walked up to Meng Yao:
"After Madam found out about the situation, she ordered me to take the girl away. Madam told me that Miss Meng Yao must be very scared to be alone tonight!
Go to Xin Guogong's mansion, my lady is waiting for her! "

When Meng Yao heard this, tears kept falling.

Only then did Kong Na realize how difficult it is for a six or seven-year-old child to spend the night alone.

Fortunately, Mrs. Guo is merciful, but she sees things that big men like them can't see.

"It was my negligence, Sister Meng Yao, if you want to go, go to Duke Xin's mansion!
I see you are getting close to Miss Xu's family on weekdays, so go over there and treat you better! "

"Thank you brother Kongne!"

Little Meng Yao nodded obediently, and followed the people from Xin Guogong's mansion.

"The old man warned him that there would be problems sooner or later for the mother and daughter staying in the Taoist temple, but unfortunately he didn't listen!"

Liu Ji waited for Meng Yao to leave before expressing his opinion for the first time.

But he changed the subject:
"But he changed his mind temporarily and settled on his marriage with Meng Yao, but it was a stroke of genius!
This kid is quick-witted, but after all he underestimated the sinister human heart! "

Liu Bowen stood up and said goodbye:
"Master Kong has worked hard. Since the old man understands the ins and outs of the matter, he will not ignore it!"

Kong Na was overjoyed, and Liu Jiken stated that Zhang Yi's matter should be easily resolved.

Apart from Jinyiwei, Yushitai is the most intimidating place for officials. Liu Ji, who is Yushi Zhongcheng, made a statement, and the matter was settled.

He sent Liu Ji and Xu Cunren out, and they left in a donkey cart.

"I hope this kid will come back and learn a lesson!"

After getting into the car, Xu Cunren had an expression of hating iron for nothing, feeling sorry for Zhang Yi, and relaxed at the same time!
Strictly speaking, this matter is not a big case.

At least it was simpler than what Xu Cunren had guessed in his mind when he came to Confucian Mansion.

Whether it's someone else's intentions or a coincidence, this case is too small...

"is it?
Do you think it's easy for Zhang Yi to come back? "

Liu Ji's ambiguous attitude gave Xu Cunren a sense of foreboding.

……

in the palace.

When Zhu Xi and Zhu Bian returned to the palace, they headed towards the East Palace non-stop.

The emperor is not here, and the prince supervises the country.

Although Zhu Biao would occasionally go to the imperial study, he mostly worked in the East Palace.

It was getting dark, and the guards in the palace became stricter.

At this time, Zhu Biao looked at Mao Xiang with a serious face:

"Why didn't you report to Ben Gong earlier?"

Mao Xiang broke out in a cold sweat and said:

"Your Highness, the matter has developed too fast. At the beginning, this matter only involved Mrs. Li. I want to give you a memorial, please make a decision, Your Highness!

It's just that in the afternoon, the magistrate suddenly took Daoist Xiao Zhang, and the minister wanted to rescue him, but...

The minister must consider His Majesty's attitude! "

Zhu Biao was silent. The so-called Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude was naturally to hide his identity from Zhang Yi.

This case is actually not big, and it is easy to solve.

As long as Li Qingmo reveals his identity, everyone in Ying Tianfu will be scared to death.

It's just that, they and Zhang Yi will never return to their original relationship.

Not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude, Zhu Biao is actually a little bit reluctant.

Huang Mu's identity brought him many conveniences.

Associating with Zhang Yi in this capacity, he gained a lot of joy that he had never experienced when he was a prince.

He was also not sure if Zhang Yi knew the identities of their father and son.

Is it still the same as before, able to laugh and scold, criticize the current situation.

If he becomes a person who is obsequious and only flatters, the world will probably lose a lot of happiness, right?

They all saw Zhu Di, Zhu Xi and the others complaining that the palace wall was like a cage, trapping them.

But who would have thought that Zhu Biao, as the prince, and Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor, would have similar troubles?

So the father and son should also cherish the time before the exposure, right?

Just when Zhu Biao was thinking wildly, Zhu Xi and Zhu Yan asked to see each other.

"Brother, please do one thing..."

Ask Mao Xiang to leave the study temporarily, and Zhu Biao recruits Zhu Xi and Zhu Yan.

When Zhu Xing came up, he begged Zhu Biao, and told the ins and outs of the matter in a hurry.

Zhu Biao kept a straight face:
"Nonsense, as a prince, how could you just listen to one side's words and question the prefect of Yingtian?"

The brothers of the Zhu family were stunned. What did the eldest brother say?
"The state owns the state law, if Zhang Yi breaks the law, then he deserves to be arrested!
If he didn't break the law, it was due to the oversight of the Tianfu Yamen, and he had his own channels of supervision.

It is inappropriate for you, as princes, to intervene before distinguishing right from wrong! "

Zhu Biao first scolded the princes, then changed the topic:
"However, Zhang Yi is the direct descendant of Longhu Mountain after all, and I will send people to follow him all the way, so keep an eye on him!"

Zhu Xi and the others intervened in this matter, and Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief.

Without being obtrusive, it is reasonable for the two younger brothers to intervene.

He said:

"You have to understand one thing, your identities are sensitive, and many people will use your identities to make a fuss!

Don't rush to express your opinion on anything.

do you know? "

Zhu Xi was thoughtful:
"So that guy, the little real person, used to point out my future doom as a reason for me to help him, is it considered a kind of use?"

puff!
Zhu Biao just took a sip of water and was startled by Zhu Xi's words.

Cough!

After knocking out the remaining water, Zhu Biao coughed desperately...

After a while, he raised his head and asked:

"what did he say?"

"He said that he saw the end of my fate, but it was a pity that he was in prison and could not help me solve the mystery..."

Zhu Xi repeated Meng Yao's words, and Zhu Biao couldn't help but laugh.

In order to survive, this kid can do anything.

However, without knowing that his father and son are the emperor's prince, Zhang Yi's move is not wrong.

Being able to predict the future is Zhang Yi's biggest hole card.

"Go down first, we'll talk about it later!
Behind this incident, there is a weirdness everywhere, and it is not ruled out that someone framed him! "

After Jewelry finished speaking, she glared at the two of them:
"What to say and what not to say, you know now, right?
Misfortune comes out of his mouth, most of his disaster this time is because of his fourth child!

OK, let's get out! "

Zhu Xi and Zhu Yan were invited out by Zhu Biao, and Mao Xiang re-entered the East Palace.

The two left the East Palace, but saw Zhu Di sneaking around at the gate of the East Palace.

"You have a big tongue, but you have made the little real person miserable!"

When Zhu Xi saw Zhu Di, he immediately scolded him.

The two of them outnumbered Zhu Di, and Zhu Di was wronged.

But after hearing the prince's analysis, Zhu Di was filled with righteous indignation.

"No, I'm going to save the real person!"

"You can pull it down, you don't even go out of the palace now, big brother will help us deal with it!"

Zhu Xing and Zhu Bing grabbed Zhu Di who was about to rush towards the East Palace, and took him back all the way.

……

outside the palace.

Ying Tian Fu Ya!

The staff sent off the guards sent by Zhu Xi, and stumbled back to the back hall.

"My lord, the palace has intervened in this matter, I'm afraid this matter cannot be hidden..."

"What are you afraid of? Do you think we still have a way back?"

The magistrate's eyes were red, he knew what the staff wanted to persuade him, and he himself felt guilty.

However, he consoled himself.

Since the people above have hinted at him, it is impossible for this matter to end so easily.

This is his chance, his only chance!
"Go ahead, hurry up and close the case, we don't have much time left..."

"But, the lord who came from the palace just now has been to the cell..."

"go out!"

Distraught, the prefect of Yingtian kicked out his staff.

"You big men, it's true that you want me to stand out, but if you don't help me withstand the pressure, I really can't bear it..."

When the staff left, the magistrate sighed and blew out the lights in the room.

……

The next day, early morning, everything was business as usual.

Zhu Biao didn't mention what happened last night, nor did other people in the know.

It's just that after Liu Bowen came down to court, he rushed back to Yushitai in a hurry.

"Someone has reported to me that there is a problem of framing in the Yingtian government office. Are we..."

Liu Ji didn't expect that his words fell like a stone in the sea, and the other censors turned their heads away one after another, but they didn't agree to his words.

He understood instantly.

"It turns out that everyone has a position..."

This matter seems to be more serious than imagined.

These Zhedong censors who were from his hometown refused to stand on his side.

Liu Ji sighed and got up:
"Everyone, do it yourself!"

He turned around and went to the palace.

But he didn't know that similar things happened in different places in Yingtian Mansion.

Changfu,

Chang Yuchun wanted to go out, but Mrs. Lan stopped at the door.

"If you are pleading for that little bastard today, you might as well kill the concubine first..."

……

In the palace, Empress Ma met Xie Shi who had entered the palace early, and agreed to accompany her to the prince's place to intervene in this case in person.

A group of people arrived at the gate of the East Palace.

Before the queen went in, she heard Li Shanchang's officials knelt down:
"His Royal Highness, it is not the blessing of the empire to intervene in a small case as the crown prince!

I beg His Highness the Crown Prince to take back the order and let the Yingtian government office handle this matter on its own..."

"His Royal Highness, the state owns the laws of the country, and there are princes who interfere in state affairs with their own selfish desires. Please restrain the other princes..."

"His Royal Highness..."

Before anyone went in, Mrs. Xie had already heard the news about Zhang Yi's case.

But, it's not good news.

Xie's face was pale.

She didn't expect that what she thought was a small matter, why would it cause such a big wave?
Even the crown prince wanted to ask, but was resisted by the officials?

In the East Palace, Zhu Biao couldn't think of it either.

Zhang Yi's situation was more serious than he had guessed, and it was simply the enemy of the whole world. (end of this chapter)
