People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 488 Recognition, you are indeed Zhu Yuanzhang
Zhang Yi was really shocked by Lao Zhu's actions.

Before he could react, Zhu Yuanzhang had already begun to destroy the corpses and eliminate traces.

His actions represented his attitude, and Zhang Yi's eyes gradually softened.

"You are hurt?"

Lao Zhu looked at the blood on Zhang Yi's shoulder and frowned.

"Come here, take him first and take care of his injuries..."

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but ask someone to pull Zhang Yi away.

He looked at Chang Mao's body on the ground with mixed feelings.

It happened so fast that he didn't know how to deal with it.

Chang Mao is a waste, but Chang Yuchun is the pillar of Ming Dynasty.

Even if Lao Zhu is dissatisfied with Chang Mao, Chang Yuchun must give him face. Even if he shouts that he wants to kill Chang Mao, if Chang Mao falls into his hands, there is a high probability that he will be exiled...

But at this time, Zhang Yi had already killed someone, so the matter became difficult to handle.

He instinctively took care of Zhang Yi's troubles, which was regarded as making his own choice.

But is it worth dragging myself into the water for Zhang Yi?

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and just said:
"Consider it a debt repayment... Remember it clearly for me. Whoever tells what happened today will be destroyed by me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"After Mao Xiang catches those, let them..."

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered another Jinyi guard to notify Mao Xiang, and then asked others to drag the body to the woods.

Not long after, he took care of Chang Mao's body and then headed in the direction of Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi's injuries were not serious. Although he was shot twice, the guns of this era were not that powerful, and he just avoided it and there were no bullets in his body.

When Lao Zhu came over, Zhang Yi had already bandaged it.

,

When he saw Uncle Huang again, his expression was complicated.

"Uncle, long time no see!"

"I didn't expect to see you here, but luckily I listened to the sound."

Lao Zhu was also sad. If he hadn't decided to visit incognito on a whim, he even changed his mind and left Zhejiang.

In other words, Chang Mao and the others didn't bring matchlock guns to make noise!
He would not hear the life-and-death battle between Zhang Yi and Chang Mao.

But when he thought about it carefully, it actually didn't affect the consequences whether he showed up or not...

Although this kid Zhang Yi has never been on the battlefield for a day.

But it seems that his skill has gradually surpassed that of many people, and this child has a natural cruelty...

It is impossible for ordinary people to kill their opponents while being chased.

"Tell me, what happened to you?"

Zhang Yi's expression remained unchanged and he told everything. When he mentioned that he returned from the sea to meet the saint, Lao Zhu still looked confused, but he did not reveal his identity after all, but said:
"This incident has a huge impact, especially since Chang Yuchun's son died here, so you can't go back like this...

follow me! "

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and said to Zhang Yi.

"Where are we going?"

"Wherever you come from, go back!"

Lao Zhu asked someone to bring over two horses, and he got up first.

Zhang Yi looked embarrassed, and only then did Lao Zhu realize that this guy might not be able to ride a horse.

The omnipotent little real person finally had something he didn't understand. Lao Zhu laughed and stretched out his hand.

He pulled Zhang Yi onto his horse and the two of them rode together.

The others looked at Zhang Yi with strange eyes.

It is very rare for Lao Zhu to be so close to someone...

Zhu Yuanzhang was riding a horse and galloping all the way.

The night wind whistled around them.

When we finally arrived at the coast, a group of people were already kneeling on the ground.

Zhang Yi saw the ship boss and some other people.

"What happened today should be treated as if it never happened, and I will spare your life!
Send Mr. Zhang back and pretend that nothing happened!

No idlers ever waited on your ship, you know? "

Lao Zhu dismounted and said to the boat boss.

The ship boss's body trembled violently, and his legs and feet became weak when he remembered the true identity of the person in front of him.

When they were killing people and selling goods, the emperor was by their side.

People like them would never dare to dream of such a thing.

The king is heaven, and although people like the ship boss are smugglers, they are not desperadoes living on the sea.

Emperor, these two words were enough to make him terrified.

What's more, his murder and silence will fall into Zhu Yuanzhang's hands.

Lao Zhu has killed a lot of people over the years, and he likes to sit in a row. He kills people like cutting leeks, one after another.

The ship boss had already thought about the scene of his Manchu being killed, and couldn't help but feel his heart tremble.

"If you do this, you will avoid death!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's words finally made everyone feel at ease.

He knelt on the ground and was about to thank the emperor for his grace, but remembered Mao Xiang's instructions and did not dare to say anything.

"You continue to get on the ship and continue to Zhejiang. Just pretend that this incident never happened and Chang Mao did not get on the ship..."

Zhu Yuanzhang pulled Zhang Yi aside and whispered to him:

"As for the funeral, uncle will help you take care of it..."

Lao Zhu's low words and strong murderous intention turned into warmth in Zhang Yi's heart.

"The two of us will meet one day. Today is not the time to reminisce about the past. You should deal with your affairs first..."

At Lao Zhu's urging, Zhang Yi got on the boat and followed the boat boss back!

Also boarding the boat at the same time were half of the Jin Yiwei brought over by Lao Zhu.

"Have you prepared anyone?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I have already rushed to notify the Marquis of Zhenhai..."

"it is good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said:

"I want today's affairs not to be leaked at all. If any news leaks out, bring your own head to see me!"

When Mao Xiang heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground.

"I dare not!"

"Go back! As soon as it gets dark, go back to Hangzhou..."

Lao Zhu turned around and returned to his habitat.

Liu Ji waited for Zhu Yuanzhang where he was, and Lao Zhu briefly explained some things to him.

Liu Ji looked uncertain, but he sighed:

"Your Majesty is ready to recognize him? Then why not recognize him on the spot?"

“I’ve recognized some things, and it’s troublesome to explain them. It’s better to wait until we get back to Hangzhou!”

"Your Majesty has always been worried that Zhang Yi would have second thoughts after he recognized you!

Now Your Majesty, you should have proven yourself..."

After Liu Ji said this, he said no more.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but picture Chang Mao in his mind.

This prodigal son has more success than failure. Lao Zhu really understands Chang Mao's deceptive nature.

"Let's go back……"

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little upset, and the sky was slightly bright, so they immediately returned to Hangzhou.

……

At sea, Zhang Yi returned to his familiar ship again, but the atmosphere at this time became very strange.

Uncle Huang sent those people to look down upon the ship boss and others. The people who wanted to kill him last night became very respectful to him.

Zhang Yi ignored these strange situations and hid in the cabin to recover from his injuries.

After a few days, his wounds were almost healed, and Zhang Yi walked onto the deck.

The number of ships passing by him gradually increased, and many warships of the Xuanwu Army were often seen.Zhang Yi knew that his return date had come.

The Xuanwu Army Pier not far away is vaguely visible.

Zhang Yi's ship did not dock at the Xuanwu Army dock, but at a nearby grain delivery dock.

However, after the ship boss put Zhang Yi down, he made an excuse to repair the ship and left immediately.

Zhang Yi reported to the officials at the dock. When they heard that it was him, the officials were shocked.

Not long after, Chang Yuchun and Zhu Xi arrived hand in hand.

"You boy!"

When Chang Yuchun saw Zhang Yi, he was like a spring breeze, smiling all over his face.

He came over and just patted Zhang Yi hard on the shoulder.

Zhang Yi hissed, his wounds were not healed yet.

"what happened?"

Chang Yuchun obviously felt something was wrong, but Zhang Yi casually said:
"It's okay. I just feel a little uncomfortable after floating on the sea for a long time!"

"Hahaha, just do the math. Look at His Highness King Qin, he has been vomiting for a month..."

Chang Yuchun pointed at Zhu Xi and laughed.

Zhu Ming was a junior in front of him, he was shy and angry, but he was too angry to speak.

Zhang Yi looked at the scene in front of him and felt like he was in another world.

Having just killed Chang Mao, he was still a little uncomfortable when facing Chang Yuchun.

However, Zhang Yi quickly adjusted his mentality and started chatting with the other party.

Chang Yuchun personally hosted a banquet to entertain Zhang Yi.

"His Majesty is waiting for you in Hangzhou..."

After drinking for three rounds, Chang Yuchun conveyed Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions.

Going to Hangzhou to meet the emperor?

The emperor is in Hangzhou?
Zhang Yi was in a daze and did not respond for a while.

"Your Majesty will remember your great achievements this time!
This time you go, it’s time for you to appear holy in front of others! "

Chang Yuchun and Zhu Xi naturally knew about the relationship between the emperor and Zhang Yi. They did not expose it directly, but only hinted at Zhang Yi.

Appear in front of people...

Zhang Yi couldn't help shaking his head and laughing when he heard these four words.

He is not enthusiastic about this matter, but if he wants to fulfill his father's wish, it seems that he can only appear in front of others.

He was well aware of the risks of appearing holy in front of others.

But it is not without benefits. At least he can implement many decisions through his position and influence the emperor.

"it is good!"

Zhang Yi responded simply and said nothing.

Chang Yuchun felt that he had something on his mind, so he didn't stay much longer.

After chatting with Zhu Xi all night, Chang Yuchun left early the next day and arranged for someone to send Zhang Yi to Hangzhou.

A few days later, Zhang Yi came to Hangzhou City.

Looking at the busy traffic around him, Zhang Yi always had a psychedelic feeling. He asked to see the emperor at his residence, but the eunuch told him that the emperor was not there.

Zhang Yi was about to accept the arrangement and go back to wait for him, but he was told by the Jin Yiwei that they would lead Zhang Yi to meet the saint in person.

The place they took Zhang Yi to was a factory.

A strange and familiar place for Zhang Yi.

The layout of the factory is very much like that of later generations, everything seems very orderly.

Zhang Yi is in the management channel. Don't ask him why he knows so much, because he designed this factory himself.

At the end of the journey, there was a person standing on a high place, looking at the female workers below working hard. The Jenny loom made regular noises along with the rhythm.

Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a dragon robe, with his back to Zhang Yi.

"Look, how is this factory?"

Lao Zhu naturally turned around and looked at him with surprise.

Zhang Yi was very calm and said:

"good……"

Zhu Yuanzhang: ...

He thought about all the scenes after the two met, but he could not guess that Zhang Yi would be so calm.

Zhang Yi took the initiative to walk to the emperor and said:
"There is something wrong with this arrangement. If the machine emits emissions like this, do you think it will affect the efficiency?
Obviously, the person who manages this workshop followed Pindao’s design at first, but after the factory expanded its production, he started messing around..."

Zhang Yi pointed out some shortcomings, and Zhu Yuanzhang gave up dwelling on the issues and listened carefully.

The two of them are quite natural, but they can make the people around them very depressed.

Zhang Yi saw that the emperor actually refused to worship him?
The emperor didn't take it seriously either?
The Jin Yiwei had strange expressions. Many of them had witnessed the fate between Zhang Yi and the emperor. In other words, many of them were looking forward to seeing Zhang Yi's surprised look, but this kid didn't play by the rules at all.

The emperor did not treat Zhang Yi as his minister, and Zhang Yi did not treat him as the emperor.

The two naturally discussed the management issues of the factory.

Management has always been a big problem. Even if it is taught by Zhang Yiyi, many people may not understand it at the implementation level...

The manager of the factory, who had been following the two of them, broke into a cold sweat when he heard this.

Every word the two of them said made him feel on pins and needles.

Finally, after nearly half an hour of discussion, the topic discussion came to an end.

Zhang Yicai saluted:

"Your Majesty, Zhang Yi, pays homage to the Emperor..."

Zhu Yuanzhang: ...

Do you think of worshiping the emperor now?

He was a little embarrassed and annoyed. This kid was too difficult to handle. Lao Zhu originally came with a trace of expectation, but this expectation was confused by him.

"Have you already guessed my identity?"

"It's not too early to return to the Emperor. I just met some people and some things this year. If I think about it again, I will understand..."

"When did you find out?"

The emperor was still unwilling, Zhang Yi smiled and said:
"Three years ago, Mr. Luo and the others assassinated me..."

Lao Zhu suddenly realized that it was the same when he thought about it.

Although he tried his best to suppress the incident three years ago, there are still many legends among the people. If Zhang Yifan lives in Yingtian for a longer time, he will naturally think of other things.

The reason why his identity has been hidden for so long is probably because of Lao Zhang.

Zhang Changcheng's endorsement was the main reason why Zhang Yi was misled.

"anything else?"

Lao Zhu seemed a little unwilling, Zhang Yi smiled:

"Although His Majesty specifically asked those who appear around me to try not to get close to me, there are so many people in the Shenji camp, how can they do it cleanly?

When I was in Tiger's Den, I met a few acquaintances, but I didn't say anything about it..."

Zhang Yi has a photographic memory. Whenever he meets someone, he may not recall it for the first time, but as long as he feels that the person looks familiar, his memory will instantly replay.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was completely convinced.

He breathed a sigh of relief. It was no longer easy to hide something from someone for six years, especially as his influence gradually expanded.

"Do you remember what the real person said?"

Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and asked the manager of the factory. The other person lowered his eyebrows and hurriedly said that he had taken note of it.

Lao Zhu nodded, and then said to Zhang Yi:
"Let's go, let's talk..."

Grandpa!

Jun Wu joked that when the emperor said these two words, Zhang Yi's status was self-evident.

Upon hearing this, the interested people present lowered their heads and looked at Zhang Yi's appearance with a hint of envy.

Zhu Yuanzhang had many adopted sons, but Mu Ying was probably the only one who could be called so by Lao Zhu.

Zhang Yi was not even Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son, but he could make the emperor so close to him.

The two of them walked to an empty space alone, and Lao Zhu asked:
"How do you feel when you know my identity?"

"I want to pack my things and run away!"

Zhang Yi answered honestly.
