My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 425 Zhu Di's Suspicion

"Miss Tang, I believe that in a few years, you will definitely feel extremely lucky for your decision today, because you have chosen the best path for yourself and for those people who have no food or clothing!"

Seeing that Tang Sai'er agreed, Zhu Zhanhe also said with emotion.

Although he hasn't been to Tianzhu yet, even some prisoners can get land and shops when they go to Tianzhu, let alone these serious immigrants. I believe that Zhu Gaoxu and Yang Shiqi will definitely treat them more preferentially.

"I hope so, but I still want to ask, why do you help me, son?"

Tang Sai'er asked very curiously at this moment.

She and Zhu Zhanhe had no relatives and no reason, and they had only met twice, but the other party was so considerate of her, which made Tang Sai'er a little confused.

"I'm not here to help you, but to help the people in Shandong. I originally took the sea route from Ningbo back to Beijing, but encountered a storm on the way, so I changed to Shandong. Only then did I realize that the people in Shandong are really suffering. Exploitation coupled with natural disasters and man-made disasters, the common people are already suffering unspeakably, if this continues, sooner or later a civil unrest will break out, and it will be the common people who will suffer."

At the end of Zhu Zhanhe's speech, he thought of the Tang Sai'er uprising in history. Although this uprising was quickly subsided, it had a great impact, and the people in Shandong were killed and injured.

Tang Sai'er kept staring at Zhu Zhanhe's eyes, and found that the other person's eyes were very sincere when he spoke, which made her believe again. No matter whether Zhu Zhanhe had selfish intentions or not, at least he was really thinking about the common people.

"Well, I believe in you, I hope you can remember today's words!"

Tang Sai'er finally nodded and said that although she was still very wary of the officials, she had already established initial trust in Zhu Zhanhe, the heir of the Han Dynasty.

"Can I go now?"

Tang Sai'er suddenly asked Zhu Zhanhe, she was surrounded by people from Dongchang, strictly speaking, she was actually Zhu Zhanhe's prisoner.

"Of course, Miss Tang, you can leave at any time, but I want to ask, if I want to contact you in the future, what method should I use?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked again.

Regarding the transfer of refugees from Shandong to Tianzhu, Zhu Zhanhe had to go back and report to Zhu Di before it could be implemented. At that time, Tang Saier's cooperation would be needed, so she must be contacted.

"If you have anything to do, you can send someone to unload the Shipeng Village, just leave a letter, and I will send someone to check the cottage regularly."

Tang Saier replied.

She was still unwilling to have direct contact with the government, and even though she initially established trust, she was still wary of Zhu Zhanhe.

"No problem, Miss Tang, just wait for my good news!"

Zhu Zhanhe promised again.

Tang Sai'er got up to leave, and the surrounding Dongchang fanzi also gave way immediately. After she left the encirclement, she was relieved, and then went into the mountains and forests, and soon disappeared.

After convincing Tang Sai'er, Zhu Zhanhe's goal has also been achieved. It is not an easy task to immigrate to Tianzhu. Even if you are a refugee, they may not be willing to cooperate with you to board the boat obediently.

But if Tang Sai'er is willing to cooperate, things will go much smoother. Using her reputation among the people, she can completely persuade those refugees to go to Tianzhu voluntarily. After all, they can't live in Shandong anymore, and there must be some people who are willing to take the risk.

So Zhu Zhanhe did not stay in Qingzhou anymore, but left for the capital two days later.

A month later, Zhu Zhanhe finally came to the capital, and was immediately called into the palace by Zhu Di.

"Meet the emperor, the pirates in Ningbo have been found out. Huang Yi, the governor of Zhejiang Province, and others were behind the instigation, ordering the sea merchant Lin Lizhi and others to pretend to be pirates, with the intention of preventing the imperial court from opening the sea!"

Zhu Zhanhe came to the Wuying Hall and immediately reported to Zhu Di the main task of his trip.

"Well, I already know about this matter. Huang Yi and others are insane. I have already ordered the three courts to interrogate, and they must be severely punished!"

Zhu Di slapped the table and said angrily.

When Dongchang and Jinyiwei reported the case in advance, Zhu Di still couldn't believe it. After all, Huang Yi was a member of the imperial court. He really couldn't believe that the other party would do such a heartless thing, but later Zhu Zhanhe reported it. He couldn't help disbelieving the witness and physical evidence.

"Grandpa Huang is wise, pretending to be Japanese pirates and attacking the coast twice, causing hundreds of casualties, Huang Yi and others are simply dead!"

Zhu Zhanhe also immediately agreed, if he didn't want to bring Huang Yi and the others back to Beijing for trial, he would have long thought of cutting people into pieces in Ningbo.

"Zhan He, Huang Yi and others' matter is put aside for now. I heard that your eldest brother was kidnapped by bandits on the way back. What's going on?"

Zhu Di frowned at this moment and asked.

"I would like to report to Grandpa Huang that the kidnapping of elder brother is not complicated. The main reason is the chaos in Shandong..."

Immediately, Zhu Zhanhe told the story in detail, not letting go of every detail.

In fact, Zhu Zhanhe knows that Zhu Zhanji entered Beijing a few days earlier than him, and must have reported it to Zhu Di. Now that Zhu Di is asking him, he just wants to confirm and see if there is any difference between the two people's stories ?

In the end, Zhu Zhanhe said that he had paid the ransom and rescued Zhu Zhanji. As for Tang Saier and others, they escaped from the secret path, and then stopped.

"Why don't you talk about it? You deliberately stayed in Qingzhou for a few more days. What did you do afterwards?"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Di asked suddenly at this moment, and narrowed his eyes looking at Zhu Zhanhe.

Zhu Zhanhe secretly sighed, he knew that he couldn't hide it from Zhu Di, after all the power of Dongchang was used, someone would definitely report it to Zhu Di.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhanhe didn't intend to hide anything, so he continued, "I want to report to Grandpa Huang, I had someone find out where Tang Sai'er was hiding, and then went to meet her personally, but then I let her go."

"Why, she is the real culprit who kidnapped your elder brother, why don't you tie her to the capital for questioning?"

Zhu Di frowned, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Grandfather, do you suspect that I colluded with that Tang Sai'er to kidnap the elder brother?"

Zhu Zhanhe didn't answer immediately, but asked Zhu Di rhetorically.

"You said it yourself. Although I don't believe you would do such a thing, but you let that Tang Sai'er go, which aggravated your suspicion."

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows.

"Brother came back a few days earlier than me, so he must have reported the situation in Shandong to you, right?"

Zhu Zhanhe still did not explain, but asked again.

"That's right, if it wasn't for your elder brother, I would have been kept in the dark all this time. I didn't expect that there would be refugees everywhere in Shandong, and there might even be a civil uprising at any time!"

At the end of Zhu Di's speech, he slapped the table angrily. What he hated most was being deceived by his officials.
