Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 38

Xuanwu Lake, Caishikou, Fachang.

As the sun rose, Li Shanchang picked up the pen and poked it fiercely in the cinnabar, looking at Li Bin who was kneeling on the execution ground.

Liu Bowen turned his head and glanced at him, reminding Li Shan that the time had come.

On Xingtai, Li Bin yelled that he was wronged with an iron chain, struggled a few times and said: "Prime Minister Li, Manzi Liu..."

Li Shanchang threw the wooden order to Xingtai.

"cut."

Zhu Biao took Mu Ying to watch the execution in the crowd.

The surrounding crowd applauded the moment Li Bin's head fell to the ground.

"Good kill, good kill." The thin old man in the crowd wiped his tears with his sleeve and said excitedly, "My granddaughter will die in peace."

The man next to him carried his burden on his back and said to the people around him: "Whoever wants vegetables today, dig them up in my field, that's enough."

"These officials are domineering and domineering on weekdays, and we ordinary people can only pinch our noses, grit our teeth and swallow them in our stomachs.

Now it's all right, the crown prince in this court is wise, and even the important officials of the court will be killed if they break the law. "

Another old vegetable seller lifted up his load of vegetables and said: "Come on, everyone can take whatever you want today, I am happy old man."

Seeing these people dancing happily, Mu Ying knew that His Royal Highness had done a good thing, and said, "Good kill."

He and Li Bin were people who went to the battlefield together, but His Highness killed the right one, Li Bin deserved to die.

"Corrupt officials are killed, but officials are needed to govern the country. We can only find ways to make them make as few mistakes as possible. When the people love these officials, it will show that the people have no grievances."

Who doesn't love money, who doesn't love beauty, the most important thing is to reduce such occurrences, so that the people of Ming Dynasty have a place to redress their grievances.It is even more difficult to avoid handing over a certificate.

Zhu Biao then took Mu Ying back to the palace, and Queen Ma told him that Lao Zhu would come back today.

However, Li Bin's head has fallen to the ground, and it is absolutely impossible to bring him back to life.

……

When Li Shanchang heard that Lao Zhu was returning to the palace, he immediately changed into his court clothes and hurried into the palace to face the saint, and stopped Lao Zhu's carriage at the gate of the imperial city.

"Minister Li Shanchang pays homage to His Majesty."

The carriage stopped, and Hu Weiyong poked his head out and said, "Prime Minister Li, this is you."

"Your Majesty, you must decide for us Huaixi people."

"Li Shanchang, what's the point of sighing at the door, let's talk about it when we return to the palace." Zhu Yuanzhang let Li Shanchang into the carriage.

The car was quiet, old Zhu sighed and said, "Are you telling the truth?"

"Your Majesty, I owe you the grace of God. Even though Li Bin is hateful, he is pitiful." Li Shanchang continued to talk about Liu Bowen.

"Hmph, this Liu Bowen, he said that he can go to the mage to ask for rain, and this time he said to kill Li Bin, it will rain. We can't spare him."

Hu Weiyong knew that he should not stand in line at this time, lest both ends would be displeased.

I can completely say that I went to pray for rain with His Majesty, but I didn't know about it at the time, and I didn't have anything to do with it.

Lao Zhu has a strong sense of local and human relations. Now Li Shanchang brought a dozen Huaixi civil officials to complain, and he didn't say it, and he didn't say it.

I had to ask someone to call Liu Bowen to join Li Shanchang and the others to tell the story of Li Bin's beheading.

"Your Majesty, if it doesn't rain, there must be grievances. I still say that, if you kill Li Bin, it will rain in the capital."

Liu Bowen was not afraid at all, and replied truthfully: "If you want to blame, please punish me, Liu Bowen, only by your majesty. This matter has nothing to do with other people. I just act truthfully in accordance with the law of the Ming Dynasty."

"Liu Bowen, why didn't you discuss this matter with Prime Minister Li? We will definitely punish you. As for how to punish, I will leave it to Prime Minister Li to decide."

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and said sadly to Li Shanchang: "Shanchang, Li Bin has been with us for many years, alas, our heart aches, how do you deal with Liu Bowen, I will listen to you."

Hearing Lao Zhu's words, Li Shanchang quickly lowered his head and said: "I...I think Lord Liu is just enforcing the law impartially, with a stern face...Your Majesty, don't be sad for Li Bin, it will be good if you hurt the dragon's body."

Another bunch of polite words, Lao Zhu knew that these literati would come to him, beating around the bush.

Li Bin was beheaded, no matter how he came back, he had to ask Liu Bowen, at least he had to appease Li Shanchang and his fellows.

After all, Li Bin is his confidant general, and he is Li Shanchang's nephew. If he wants to intervene, he must intervene carefully.

After becoming the emperor, he has been imitating Tang Zong and the Han ancestors, taking them as specimens of what he does.

Broad-minded, diligent for the people, open-minded to learn, very frugal, basically no major problems.

Lao Zhu knew that if he wanted to be a sage king and be passed down through the ages, he had to be close to virtuous ministers and keep away from villains. If ministers killed evil officials, he would also praise them.

No, when I came back in the carriage, I first said how hard it was for me to pray for rain with the mage outside the city, and then said how sad I was when Liu Bowen killed Li Bin, and wanted to send these civil servants away.

It's better for Xu Da and the others, and it's comfortable to stay with them.Zhu Yuanzhang tapped his hand on the table and said in his heart.

"Shanchang, you go back to deal with Li Bin's funeral first, we won't make you sad about this matter, you are the person we value most."

Li Shanchang has followed His Majesty for many years and knows Lao Zhu's temper well.

Now that Li Bin has been beheaded for his incompetence, it would be insolent for His Majesty to hold on to him.

Li Shanchang was in a good mood, hearing that His Majesty appreciated him so much, his goal was half achieved, so he didn't say much.

Then he left the palace.

Seeing that Hu Weiyong was still standing aside, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Liu Bowen, if you dare to kill our confidant minister, we will beat you. If it doesn't rain tomorrow, we will continue to beat you."

"Oh, Weiyong, you've been tired after we've been out of the city for the past few days. Go back and wash up to comfort Prime Minister Li. After all, you have a good relationship with him."

Do you have a good relationship with Li Shanchang?Hu Weiyong was not stupid either, so he didn't answer directly, but took a few steps back and said, "Your Majesty is tired, so I will let my servant go to see Prime Minister Li for you, and help you share your worries."

When Hu Weiyong left, he heard Lao Zhu's voice from inside the hall: "Go, bring Liu Bowen down for us, and we must criticize him properly."

Li Shanchang watched those servants decorate the mourning hall with his hands behind his back, feeling very sad in his heart. If it wasn't for him, Liu Bowen, how could his nephew be beheaded.

Just now Hu Weiyong said that His Majesty ordered someone to teach Liu Bowen a lesson.

In this way, His Majesty still has opinions on him, Liu Manzi, but his position remains unchanged.

Your Majesty is from Huaixi, so how could he be against this East Zhejiang party?
With Li Bin's death this time, Li Shanchang's hatred for Liu Bowen became even stronger. He believed that it was Liu Bowen who provoked His Royal Highness and Empress Ma.

Staring at the white cloth and white candles in Li's house, Li Shanchang swore that he and Liu Bowen were incompatible.

　The last small recommendation, everyone help to vote for recommendation in the past few days.
