Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 253 I have restrained myself
The people living in Jinling City saw a magnificent scene that they might not be able to see for the second time in their lifetime.

It seemed that overnight, there were hundreds of thousands of handsome men and pretty girls in the city.

Gathered together by the government, sent out of the city mightily.

Of course, these people could not have appeared out of thin air. These hundreds of thousands were all hidden households cleared from the palaces of princes and ministers in Jinling.

There are only 40 hermits in the 28 prefectures of Quanzhili, and only the city of Jinling and the prefecture of Yingtian account for [-]!
More than 170 servants in a family like Lan Yu's are very few, most of them are from the Prince's Mansion in Beijing.

Just like that Zhu Xi, he fully supported thousands of servants.

But it was these thousands of servants that made Zhu Biao want to kill Zhu Xi for the first time!
"Thirteen hundred slaves, more than 400 disabled? More than 400 disabled!"

In the Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Biao looked at Chen Yunfu standing in front of him with disbelief and even astonishment. He ran to Chen Yunfu, put his hands on the latter's shoulders and said.

"It's not true, you are fooling me, aren't you?"

Chen Yunfu lowered his head, did not respond, and spoke after a long time.

"I heard back then that when His Royal Highness Chu Wang was still in Xi'an, his favorite thing to do was to torture and kill slaves. He once stripped hundreds of slaves naked, cut off their tongues, tied them to wooden stakes, and threw them in the cold winter of March [-]. Among them, those who freeze to death are regarded as a kind of relief, and those who do not freeze to death will be set on fire and burned to death."

Zhu Biao took a few steps back.

"This matter was said by Mao Xianghechen, the commander of Jinyiwei back then."

"Impossible!" Zhu Biao interrupted with a stern shout: "Mao Xiang is already dead, no matter what you want to say now, there is no proof of death."

When Jinyiwei was eliminated, because Jinyiwei committed public outrage, Zhu Yuanzhang took Mao Xiang as a scapegoat and took the blame to death.

Chen Yunfu didn't say a word, just handed a book to Zhu Biao.

"Of the 16 servants, more than half are boys and girls under the age of [-]. King Chu has the worst habit of child abuse."

Zhu Biao didn't even look at it, he just tore it into pieces, his eyes were red and he gritted his teeth.

"auspicious."

"The servant is here."

Ji Xiang glanced at Chen Yunfu, and kept complaining in his heart, but he still bit the bullet and stepped forward to answer.

"Call Zhu Xi to see me, and prepare a glass of poisoned wine."

Ji Xiang's earthy face made three souls leave his body in fright, and said repeatedly.

"No, Your Majesty, King Chu is His Majesty's sibling and the son of the Supreme Emperor. This, this is absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible, Your Majesty, how about, how about you report this matter to the Supreme Emperor before making a decision, Your Majesty."

"Even you think I'm not as good as my father, don't you?"

Jixiang was terrified, knelt down quickly, swung his arms round and greeted himself in the face, and kept kowtowing after beating.

"Slaves absolutely have no such intentions, absolutely no such intentions."

At this moment, Zhu Biao's fists were clenched tightly, his body was trembling constantly, and it took a long time before he could squeeze out a word from his mouth.

"I, how can I be willing to kill my own brother, but there is no one in the world who was not raised by parents, let the second child come, let him come!"

Jixiang didn't dare to persuade him any more, and crawled away from the Qianqing Palace with blood on his head and mouth.

In the Nuan Pavilion, only Chen Yunfu and Zhu Biao were left at the moment, and those maids, who had already knelt far away in Zhu Biao's fury, were the servants.

"Father should know all about what the second child did."

Zhu Biao seemed to be asking a question, but Chen Yunfu could tell from his tone that it was a very definite statement.

Since Mao Xiang could even tell Chen Yunfu about this kind of thing, how could he tell Zhu Yuanzhang differently.

However, Mao Xiang never told Chen Yunfu about the torture and killing of hundreds of slaves. Chen Yunfu only guessed based on Zhu Xi's wanton buying of slaves. Anyway, Mao Xiang is also dead now, and there is no evidence for his death.

It is useless for Zhu Biao to ask Zhu Yuanzhang for proof, and it is impossible for Lao Zhu to know what Mao Xiang and Chen Yunfu said.

Since that year, when Luan Kefa and others spoke out about Zhu Xun's evil deeds, Chen Yunfu said that as long as Zhu Xun was still in Jinling, he would be killed sooner or later!

Today, the time has come!
From the moment Zhu Yuanzhang gave the throne to Zhu Biao, Chen Yunfu already knew in his heart that Zhu Xi would die by his own hands.

Abolition of slavery is the best excuse.

And the person who actually carried out the abolition of slavery was Qi De!
Chen Yunfu definitely wanted to kill Zhu Xi. Killing Zhu Xi would not only avenge the grievances of the undead, but also serve as an example to scare the whole world.

People in the world will not know the heinous crimes committed by Zhu Xi, for the sake of the royal family's face.

They only know that to resist the law, it really doesn't matter how big or small it is.

Use Qi De to make this chess piece, and then borrow the hand of Big Brother.

Therefore, Chen Yunfu will not try to persuade Zhu Biao at this time, there is no need to be hypocritical anymore, I will see you poorly, and at this point, I have to go on no matter what.

"Father actually knows everything, but he is old, and he is not so sober when he gets old."

Zhu Biao’s prejudice against Zhu Yuanzhang that had accumulated for decades burst out at this moment: “He threw brother Wenying (Xining Hou Muying) thousands of miles away to the Yunnan border for so many years, did he recall it once, why, that is Because brother Wen Ying once fought for brother Wen Zhong and blatantly contradicted him.

Brother Wen Zhong was imprisoned for half a year because of contradicting him. He suffered a lot of pain and torture in prison, causing the old sores to burst out and died. Isn't this his child, even if he contradicts him.

Now, when it comes to his own son, he doesn't care, he is spoiled and indulged! "

Chen Yunfu still bowed his head and remained silent.

The emperor is also a human being, and sometimes when the fire comes up, under the influence of prejudice, he will keep turning over old scores.

How can there be so many sober people in the world.

Zhu Biao scolded for a long time, reprimanding Zhu Yuanzhang and scolding Zhu Shi for his viciousness. Finally, Chen Yunfu was awakened by a violent cough.

The latter hurried forward to caress his back, and at the same time spoke persuasively for the first time.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Chu deserves to die, but the Supreme Emperor is old after all. You can't bear to watch the Supreme Emperor send a white-haired man to a black-haired man. Brothers kill each other, father and son become enemies, and the world is deeply saddened."

Zhu Biao looked at Chen Yunfu in disbelief: "Yunfu, until this time, do you still want to protect the second child?"

Who wants to protect that bastard, Chen Yunfu smiled wryly in his heart.

Zhu Biao's cough just now woke up Chen Yunfu.

If you really want to kill Zhu Xi at this time, what if the old Zhu comes back angrily to settle accounts with Zhu Biao, and the two of you will make a big fuss, what if you really suffocate the big brother to death?
Big brother is not Li Er after all, even if he is as decisive as Li Er, Lao Zhu is not Li Yuan, who can put Zhu Yuanzhang under house arrest.

Chen Yunfu finally understood that as long as Lao Zhu was still alive, none of these vassal kings could move.

"There are 1 people in my heart who hate him for not dying, but I still want to say, for the sake of the Supreme Emperor and his old man, and for your reputation, this time, let's go."

Zhu Biao was silent and closed his eyes after a long time.

"I have tens of millions of people, Du Yunfu, you are dedicated to my consideration, so tell me, how to deal with the matter of the second child."

"Cutting down the king's title, his royal highness will inherit the title, and the princes will stay in Beijing, and King Chu himself and his wife and concubines will be assigned to the frontier."

Zhu Biao didn't respond, but said: "There will be a grand court meeting tomorrow, you go back first, I will handle this matter."

"Yes, I retire."

Chen Yunfu bowed and retreated, only to come out of the Qianqing Gate when he bumped into Jixiang and Zhu Xi who came hurriedly with a panicked face.

"Young master, Mr. Chen Gel."

Seeing Chen Yunfu, Zhu Xi quickly ran over and grabbed Chen Yunfu's arm. At this moment, he didn't have the same demeanor as when he was looking at the northwest, his face was full of fear and fear.

Although Jixiang didn't say anything to him on the way here, Zhu Xi already had a vague premonition that entering the palace this time might very well be his way to the underworld.

But would he dare not come?

This is the same as when a minister would say thank you Lord Long En when he was bestowed to death.

If Zhu Biao really made up his mind to kill him, he couldn't run away, and by the same token, he couldn't run away either.

Jixiang didn't go looking for him alone, he even brought a team of Jinwu Guards with him.

Chen Yunfu shook off Zhu Xi's hand, and looked at the latter with indifference.

"I still have something to do, His Royal Highness Chu Wang, please go on the road."

On the road?

As soon as Zhu Xi's legs softened, he slumped on the ground.

Several Jinwu guards set up Zhu Xi and dragged him into the Qianqing Palace.

Entering here, Zhu Xi finally regained some clarity, and when he saw Zhu Biao, he crawled forward and kowtowed.

"The younger brother knocked on your majesty, the younger brother knocked on your majesty, the younger brother is guilty, the younger brother is guilty, please forgive me."

"What are you guilty of?"

Zhu Biao squatted down, and put his hand on Zhu Xi's head, the voice was bitingly cold: "You said, you are right, I will not kill you."

Zhu Xing was overjoyed immediately, and poured out all his crimes like a few treasures, and finally kowtowed, until his head was covered with blood.

"Please Your Majesty, please forgive me, please Your Majesty."

"I forgive you, do you spare those who were killed by you?"

Zhu Biao felt chills all over his body when he heard that at the end. He never thought that his own brother had committed so many outrageous and brutal crimes. He took off the jade belt around his waist and slapped Zhu Xi fiercely.

Jinling in April and May is already a bit hot and dry. Zhu Xi's body is already strong, so he is wearing very thin clothes.

Can it not hurt? It hurts.

Do you dare to move? Don't dare.

Zhu Yu lay on the ground with all five bodies on the ground, allowing Zhu Biao to slap himself on his body, and only kept crying: "Your Majesty, forgive me, and my brother is guilty."

In the end Zhu Biao was tired from convulsions, his health was not good, he was panting in anxiety and anger, so he had no choice but to let go.

"I'm going to kill you, but Chen Yunfu persuaded me, saying that I don't want my father and the white-haired people to give away black-haired people, and that I don't want me to have a bad reputation of brotherhood and father-son enmity, so your life is yours." Yunfu saved it for you."

Zhu Xi looked up in disbelief.

Speaking of which, didn't Chen Yunfu save himself twice?

How could I have such a great benefactor in my life? I am really not a thing, but I still want to trouble Chen Yunfu every day.

"From today onwards, Concubine Ru and Concubine Ru have all entered the Shang Palace to practice rituals, and then sent them to Yunfu's mansion as servants. You, go to your father's place in this life and think about your mistakes."

Demote his wives and concubines as servants?
Zhu Xi opened his mouth, but in the end he could only bow his head.

"Sir, thank you for your grace."

He got up unsteadily, endured the pain all over his body, and was just about to leave when Zhu Biao's voice was heard behind him.

"Come here, break his legs, take him to the father in a donkey cart, and tell the father, I have restrained myself!"
