Daming: From the end of Hongwu

336 Chapter 334 - Scary Dog
Royal Palace.

In Fengtian Palace, Zhu Di listened quietly to Yang Jing's report, and suddenly Zhu Di interrupted: "You said Xue Lu was beaten by Ji Gang?"

"Your Majesty, yes."

Zhu Di was a little puzzled and said: "The stupid boy just put up with it? It's not his temper, he should make some noise anyway."

He thinks he knows Xue Lu better, but he is one of Zhen Wu's most powerful men, the one who dared to burn down the house after his temper got angry, not to mention Ji Gang, Zhu Neng dare not pay attention to him if he is so anxious.

Such a thing, being beaten by Ji Gang, will hold back his breath, Zhu Di absolutely does not believe it.

Yang Jing replied blankly: "It was suppressed by the second prince."

Second child?

Zhu Di was taken aback for a moment, and after a while he asked, "What is the relationship between the second child and Ji Gang?"

"Ji Gang once presented the second prince with a pair of twin girls, other than that, there is no excessive communication."

Zhu Di pondered silently.

After a long time, Yang Jing couldn't bear it first, and asked, "Your Majesty, what do we need to do?"

Zhu Di shook his head, then chuckled and said: "No, Zhen Wu is coming back soon, let this kid go, if you don't let him vent his anger, he will be annoyed to death, believe it or not, and maybe you have to give it to me." I'm going to come up with some ridiculous reasons."

Having said that, Zhu Di didn't want to say more on this topic, so he changed the subject and asked, "By the way, how are the officials doing recently? And those old guys like Liao Ping Jinjiao, are they still honest these days?"

Yang Jing organized his language briefly, and then reported in detail.

……

Two days later, Longjiang.

In September, Zhen Wu set off from the capital to Peiping, and now it is the end of October, after walking for more than a month, he escorted Xu Miaoyun and the others to Longjiang.

After the court ended that day, Zhu Di asked Zhu Gaoxu to bring all the officials to meet Xu Miaoyun and others.

A group of people came over mightily, and after seeing Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Gaochi, the atmosphere immediately became more relaxed. Many of the officials saw Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Gaochi for the first time, and seeing that they were both extraordinary, they couldn't help but be taken aback by the two of them. Impressed by the temperament.

It's just that Zhu Gaochi is two points fatter than the rumors, which is shocking.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu stood obediently beside Xu Miaoyun and called "Mother". Xu Miaoyun looked at Zhu Gaoxu who was blackened by the wind and frost, and thought of Zhu Gaoxu's tiger-headed and tiger-headed appearance when he was a child, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

And Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at Zhu Gaochi heartlessly, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Good guy, big brother, why are you getting fat again?"

Zhu Gaochi didn't seem to understand the teasing intention in Zhu Gaoxu's words, and he said with a naive smile: "Yeah, I'm fat again, but the second brother is much more heroic, which makes the elder brother very happy."

Zhu Gaoxu curled his lips, always feeling that his elder brother was hypocritical and dishonest, and then he was unwilling to talk to Zhu Gaochi, turned his head again, and turned to tease Zhu Zhanji who was staring at him.

"Eldest nephew, why don't you call me when you see second uncle?" Zhu Gaoxu started to pinch Zhu Zhanji's little face.

Zhu Zhanji turned his head away unhappy.

Zhu Gaoxu happily yelled at Zhu Gaochi: "Brother, my eldest nephew looks so stupid, he can't even call people, so there won't be any problem."

"You're just stupid." Zhu Zhanji couldn't help retorting.

Unexpectedly, this made Zhu Gaoxu even happier. He smiled and bent over to hug Zhu Zhanji: "Good boy, Second Uncle likes this character, unlike your father who never spoke directly when he was young."

Zhu Zhanji was stunned, his little head was not enough for a while, he didn't understand why Zhu Gaoxu was so happy when he was scolded, but then he began to struggle in Zhu Gaoxu's arms, wanting to get down.

Zhu Gaoxu's quarrelsome temper broke out, and he hugged Zhu Zhanji tightly, just not letting Zhu Zhanji get down.

Just when Zhu Zhanji was about to cry, Zhen Wu came over and stretched out his arm to catch Zhu Zhanji.

Zhen Wu glared at Zhu Gaoxu, then came to Xu Miaoyun and asked Xu Miaoyun if it was time to leave.

Xu Miaoyun nodded, and let Zhen Wu decide.

Afterwards, Zhen Wu began to arrange matters for entering the city.

On the road.

Zhen Wu came to Zhang Wu's group in time, he smiled and said to Zhang Wu and the others: "My family members and your family members are all arranged by me at the back. After the imperial palace, you will come to Longjiang with me tomorrow to pick up your family members and go home."

Today Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Gaochi are the protagonists, and no one can take them away.

Zhang Wu and the others also understood, and they all nodded yes.

At this moment, after scanning around, Zhen Wu frowned and said, "Where's Xue Lu? Why didn't this bastard come over?"

Originally, Zhen Wu was just asking casually.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words fell, Zhang Wu and others all had strange expressions.

Zhen Wu became suspicious, and stared straight at Zhang Wu with narrowed eyes.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Zhang Wu began to stammer and say that Xue Lu had an errand and couldn't get away, but just after Zhang Wu finished speaking, Zhen Wu began to curse.

"Fart your mother, I slept with you when I was still the general flag, how the hell are you lying, you can hide it from me? Did something happen to Xue Lu, tell me honestly."

Zhen Wu's mind naturally came up with the incident that Zeng Gu wanted to ask Xue Lu for help when he met on the road, and wondered if Xue Lu knew about this incident, and caused something to happen on impulse.

Zhang Wu wondered if he should tell Zhen Wu the truth.

Zhen Wu glanced at Zhang Wu, and said indifferently: "Do you want me to check it myself?"

Zhang Wu was taken aback.

Then he thought that there was already a lot of noise about Xue Lu in the city, even if they wanted to cover it up for Xue Lu, it is estimated that Zhen Wu would be able to find out in a few days.

Immediately, Zhang Wu no longer wanted to hide anything, and told Zhen Wu everything he knew.

When Tan Zhong and the others saw Zhang Wu, they all started talking, and they didn't hide anything for Xue Lu.

When Zhen Wu finished listening.

Zhen Wu's hand holding the whip was already tightly clenched, and his brows and eyes were dancing with anger.

Who is Xue Lu?

That was the first person in the army to know him, and the one who had steadfastly supported him from the very beginning.

He was bullied.

How could Zhen Wu bear it?

However, Zhen Wu knew that this was not the time for an attack, so he took two deep breaths to calm down, but looking at Zhang Wu and the others, he still couldn't help but reprimanded him coldly: "You guys really gave me this! With a long face."

After finishing speaking, Zhen Wu ignored them and walked forward quickly.

Zhang Wu, Tan Zhong and the others looked at each other.

They feel that they are also very wronged.

……

Afterwards, Zhen Wu sent Xu Miaoyun and others into the palace all the way, and handed them over to the internal officials of the inner palace supervisor. The hundreds of officials who were responsible for welcoming Xu Miaoyun completed their mission, and they all dispersed talking and laughing. They should be on duty. Those who are on duty call their friends to drink when they have nothing to do.

Zhang Wu and the others also had their own errands, so they also dispersed at this time.

However, Zhen Wu, the number one person in charge of the escort, needs to report to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di had been waiting for Zhen Wu for a long time. After Zhen Wu reported all the things about this trip, Zhu Di praised Zhen Wu in a flat manner, and then saw Zhen Wu took out a memorial from his sleeve to let him go. Someone handed it over.

"This is?" Zhu Di asked.

Zhen Wu explained: "I met a pair of father and daughter who were hunted down on the road, and they were involved in a massacre. The minister has already had people investigate it. It can basically be concluded that Liu Xiangong and others from the Jinyi Guard of the Daming Mansion framed Zhongliang, disregarded human life, and violated the law knowingly. The crime, the detailed process, has been written in the memorial, but I don’t know whether Liu Xiangong and others are ordered by high-ranking officials in the capital, or have accomplices to cover them, this needs to be further investigated.”

Zhu Di looked at the memorial, his face became darker and darker the more he looked at it.

At the beginning, he gave Jin Yiwei the right to clean up, knowing that Jin Yiwei would let himself go, but he didn't expect to fly so thoroughly.

"Is there any evidence?" Zhu Di asked.

Zhen Wu nodded and said: "There are witnesses. A son from the Zeng family escaped and was found and protected by my people. He has evidence that Jin Yiwei violated the law."

"Turn it over to Nanzhen Fusi, and I will let Cao Cheng follow up, so you can rest assured that if the facts are true, I will return Zeng Gu's innocence." Zhu Di said.

Cao Chengcheng was the one who killed Zhu Yunqi before. He originally belonged to Zhen Wu, but after Zhu Di entered the city, he asked for it, and finally said that he would return it to Zhen Wu, but unexpectedly, Zhu Di finally arranged for Cao Cheng to be He took over the head of Nanzhen Fusi.

The Nanzhen Fusi is a subordinate organization of Jinyiwei, and it is opposite to the Beizhen Fusi. The Beizhen Fusi is in charge of torture, arrest, and prison, while the Nanzhen Fusi is responsible for Jinyiwei's legal issues, so the Nanzhen Fusi investigates Jinyiwei's violations. Deeds are the most reasonable.

Zhen Wu felt that this was very appropriate, so he nodded yes.

As far as Zeng Gu's matter is concerned, it's over.

As for whether Ji Gang can be found out, that has nothing to do with Zhen Wu.

Zhen Wu wanted to find a place for Xue Lu, so he didn't need to borrow this matter.

There is only one factor that can affect Zhen Wu's killing of Ji Gang, and that is whether Zhu Di can stop him.

But it's a pity that Zhu Di obviously doesn't want Ji Gang to die now.

Therefore, when Zhen Wu said goodbye and planned to leave, Zhu Di stopped Zhen Wu: "Wait."

Zhen Wu looked up at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di glared at Zhen Wu and said, "Ji Gang, don't kill me."

Zhen Wu sighed in his heart, and his face was a little disappointed, but he still wanted to fight for it, so he thought that Zhen Wu wanted to talk to Zhu Di that the cleaning was enough, and the first year of Yongle was coming soon, and we had to welcome a new one. In terms of appearance, it is better to sacrifice a flag to a blood-stained, resentful person like Ji Gang.

Zhu Di said unhappily: "Don't make up your nonsense for me, the vicious dog that I finally fed with meat is still used to scare people. If it is killed, you squat at the door to scare people every day? Or do you want Laozi to introduce another person, and then wash and raise another person?"

hiss.

Zhen Wu didn't expect this.

Not to mention, Jin Yiwei has been so ruthless lately, and there are a bunch of people involved in the cleanup. Ji Gang is really good at scaring people now. At least this guy is squatting in the court, and all the officials have to be honest.

After Zhen Wu figured this out, he sighed again in his heart. Could it be that there is a difference in realm, or that Zhu Di knows the principle of making the best use of everything, and in this case, let him have his life, anyway, it’s not just about killing him. Only then can Ji Gang help Xue Lu find his place again.

Zhu Di looked at Zhen Wu's eyeballs, and knew what Zhen Wu was up to. After thinking for a while, he added: "Also, don't hit me. He won't dare to call out in the future, otherwise I still have to coax him."

Zhen Wu was disappointed and said: "Understood."

"Then get out, I'll be annoyed when I see you." Zhu Di waved his hand in disgust.

Zhen Wu didn't care, turned around and backed out, but at this time Zhu Di's eyes sparkled, Ji Gang had indeed gone too far recently, it was just right for Zhen Wu to beat and beat, and presumably because of the relationship between Zhen Wu and the second child, Zhen Wu I will also take advantage of the situation to tap the second child, so that the second child will know where to reach out.

As a brother-in-law, he also has the responsibility to watch those little ones not go astray.

Or do you think his daughter is easy to marry?
thought here.

Zhu Di inexplicably remembered what Zhen Wu said when he knelt in front of him and said, "I would like to marry the princess", and Zhu Di suddenly felt a toothache again.

Dog, is he willing to do this? !
After Zhu Di talked about the past for a while, he turned his mind to the reality again. He muttered to himself: "Jin Yiwei, after adding Beizhen Fusi, seems to have a bit more power, and a Nanzhen Fusi can't control it." , do you want to set up another similar yamen so that the two can supervise and restrain each other?"

"It seems to be necessary. At that time, this yamen will help share the heavy responsibility of supervising officials. Jin Yiwei will also be able to investigate more details of the folks. Otherwise, sitting in the palace for a long time and being ignorant of everything in the folks, how can the emperor sit? Not good for the emperor."

"We snatched the throne from our nephew, so we can't do worse than him. We have to make great achievements. When we go underground, we will have something to say to our father, so as to save him from anger, and beat us to death again. "

Zhu Di's whispering voice echoed in the room.

On the other side, after Zhen Wu came out, Cheng Liang greeted him and asked, "Master, where are we going now? Are we going home?"

"Do not."

Zhen Wu shook his head and said: "Go to the Jinyiwei yamen first, and then talk about it after finishing the matter. Grandma, I get angry when I talk about this. I'm not in the capital, and everyone is about to embarrass me."

While they were talking, they walked towards Jinyiwei Yamen.

Soon.

Zhen Wu then came to Jinyiwei's yamen, he didn't go in, but turned his head to Cheng Liang and said: "Find a chair, and I'll do business at this yamen today, there are so many people, so it's convenient to lose face pick it up."

Cheng Liang hurried away in response.

soon.

Cheng Liang moved a chair over and let Zhen Wu sit down in front of the main entrance of the Jinyiwei yamen.

At this time, everyone in Jin Yiwei already knew that Zhao Guogong had come, and it was obvious that the person who came was not good. After all, they knew about the big trouble between their commander and Xue Lu some time ago.

And who is Xue Lu?

One of Zhao Guogong's most trusted arms is also the person who is often selected as the vanguard when Zhao Guogong is facing each other.

Now that Zhao Guogong is looking for him, how can they not be worried, all the people in Jin Yiwei hurriedly reported to the police in a panic.

Zhen Wu twisted his body and glanced at Jin Yiwei, he smiled disdainfully, and then said to Cheng Liang: "Go and inform the people inside, let them tell Ji Gang, I'm only waiting for a stick of incense, if he really has the guts, just hide Don't come to see me."

"Yes." Cheng Liang arrogantly walked towards the Jinyiwei yamen.

The Jinyiwei, who was feared by all the officials and the people, was like a chicken and a dog in the eyes of Cheng Liang at the moment, not worth mentioning.
