My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 183 Zhu Yunqi's Scope of Activities
In the prison, Zhu Zhanhe walked through one cell after another.

I remember that when Zhu Zhanhe came to the prison for the first time, he still swore in his heart that if it was not necessary, he never wanted to come again, but he did not expect that he would come here almost every few days now, except for the palace, The East Factory, the Imperial Palace, and Prison were the places he visited the most.

In the end, Zhu Zhanhe came to a cell in the deepest part of the Imperial Prison, next to it was an interrogation room, which was also specially built for super-extreme felons, such as Monk Ji Shi.

Liu Mian guessed before that Ji Shi was likely to be Cheng Ji, but after Hu Min caught him, he immediately found out that the other party was not Cheng Ji, which made him a little disappointed at first.

But immediately afterwards, Hu Wei was pleasantly surprised to find that Monk Jishi turned out to be an eunuch, so the other party must be the eunuch next to Zhu Yunqi, who escaped from the palace with Zhu Yunqi.

Although this eunuch is not as famous as Cheng Ji and Ye Xixian, he is Zhu Yunqi's close friend, so he can almost represent Zhu Yunqi in Jianwen's remnants, and he probably knows Zhu Yunqi's whereabouts.

However, the eunuch's mouth was very hard. At the beginning, no matter how much Hu Ming interrogated him, the other party refused to speak, and even ordinary punishments were useless.

Hu Wei was afraid that the other party would not be able to bear the punishment and die, so he didn't dare to use too much torture. In the end, he had to take him back to the capital for interrogation by the master torturers in the imperial prison.

After these days of torture, this tough eunuch finally couldn't stand it anymore and began to confess.

When Zhu Zhanhe entered the interrogation room, he saw Hu Yizheng sorting out his confession with joy on his face. As for Monk Jishi, he was tied to the frame half dead, with almost no good flesh in his body.

Seeing such a bloody scene, Zhu Zhanhe couldn't bear it, but when he thought of the remnants of Jianwen, he went around instigating others to rebel. Counting, so Jishi deserved to end up like this.

"My son, you came just in time, this is what he just confessed!"

When Hu Wei saw Zhu Zhanhe coming in, he was also very excited and handed the statement in his hand to Zhu Zhanhe to check.

Zhu Zhanhe took the confession and read it, only then did he know that Monk Jishi's original name was Wang Yi, and he was an inconspicuous little eunuch in the palace back then, and he fled out of the city with Zhu Yunqi when the city was broken.

During Zhu Yunwen's escape, Wang Yi followed Zhu Yunwen and waited on him. They first hid in the Jiangxi area for a while, and then Zhu Di sent people to search everywhere, so they changed their way to hide in the Huguang area, and they hid for several years.

That is to say, from then on, Wang Yi and Ye Xixian, the remnants of Jianwen, began to act secretly, and established relationships with Gu Wang, Xu Yingxu and others, using their ambitions to encourage them to rebel and shake Zhu Di's rule.

However, the above things have been exposed long ago, and they are not of much value to Zhu Zhanhe. The most important thing now is to find Zhu Yunqi's whereabouts.

But it's a pity that Wang Yi doesn't know where Zhu Yunqi is, because as early as a few years ago, Zhu Yunqi ordered Wang Yi and others to disperse their activities, and they are also in one-way contact with each other.

As for Zhu Yunqi, he left with Yang Yingneng. As for where he went, Wang Yi didn't know. He only met Yang Yingneng once in the past two years, and the other party conveyed some of Zhu Yunqi's wishes to him.

"Is what Wang Yi is telling the truth?"

After Zhu Zhanhe read the confession, he also frowned and asked Hu Yan, without Zhu Yunqi's whereabouts, this confession would not be of much value.

"Under the severe punishment, it is impossible for him to tell lies. In addition, I also captured some of his subordinates. They also don't know the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen."

Hu Yan replied solemnly.

"Emperor Jianwen is really cautious, even a confidant like Wang Yi has to be on guard!"

Zhu Zhanhe also had a headache when he heard the words, and he even wanted to complain a few words, you said that if Zhu Yunqi put his hidden energy on governing the country, he might not lose the throne so quickly.

"But it's not nothing, at least he knows the scope of Emperor Jianwen's activities, and he only took Yang Yingneng away in the end, and he shouldn't be able to go too far, so I suspect that they are probably still in Huguang, or they killed them. Going back to the Jiangxi area, after all, there is a saying that the lights are dark, and Jiangxi is very close to the capital, so we tend to ignore it!"

Hu Wei was not discouraged, but analyzed carefully.

He was ordered to track down the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen for more than ten years. At the beginning, he didn't even have any clues. Finding Zhu Yunqi's whereabouts from the vast crowd was not much easier than finding a needle in a haystack.

In comparison, it is already much stronger now, at least knowing the approximate scope of Zhu Yunqi's activities, and also knowing where he used to live, as long as he searches patiently, he will be able to find him sooner or later!
"Then what are you going to do next?"

Zhu Zhanhe admired Hu's indomitable spirit, so he asked.

"I plan to ask His Majesty for an official. I will personally go to Jiangxi and Huguang to inspect the area. I will walk the road that Emperor Jianwen walked. Maybe I can find some useful clues!"

Hu Yan said with a firm expression.

"Well, if you need anything at that time, you can go directly to Jin Yiwei and our people from the East Factory. Usually, I will ask them to pay more attention to the clues of Emperor Jianwen!"

Zhu Zhanhe nodded in admiration and said, he didn't have a good impression of Hu Wei before, but now it seems that Hu Wei is really the best candidate to find the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen, I have to say that Zhu Di's eyes are really poisonous.

Without further ado, Hu Wei brought his statement and went to the palace with Zhu Zhanhe to meet Zhu Di, and told him about his desire to personally inspect Jiangxi and Huguang.

Zhu Di was also very straightforward, directly ordering Hu Wei to lead Jiangxi and governor of Huguang, and to have the right to restrain local officials and mobilize local garrisons.

This is also the first time that the governor has appeared in history, and now he is only a temporary dispatcher. Zhu Di probably would not have thought that the governor would become a local resident official in the future.

Hu Wei had a new appointment, and Zhu Zhanhe also congratulated him, and the two left the imperial city together, but at this moment, Hu Wei suddenly smiled and said, "Does your son have time?"

"If you want to invite me to drink, you can avoid it. You will leave Beijing soon, so I should invite you!"

Zhu Zhanhe laughed.

"My lord, if you want to invite me to drink, you can leave it until tomorrow, because someone has already invited me today, why don't you go with me?"

Hu Wei extended an invitation to Zhu Zhanhe.

"Who invited you to drink? Would it be too abrupt for me to go over so rashly?"

Zhu Zhanhe was in a bit of a dilemma, after all, it was Hu Mei who was invited and he was not invited.

"You also know this man. It is Zhang Xing, the former governor of the Gu Palace. He not only invited me, but also invited Liu Mian. I think if he knows that the son will also go, he must be wishing for it!"

Hu Yan explained with a smile.
