Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 1027: The pit set when the country was founded
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard what Master Hu said, he broke out in a cold sweat.

He couldn't even sit still, so he simply stood up and walked back and forth in the big tent.

To be honest, what Mr. Hu said was too straightforward.

However, even though he understood and knew what was going on, and roughly knew how to deal with it, Zhu Yuanzhang still felt his scalp tingling.

Because he found that there was a big pit here.

"Weiyong, if we don't set up these textbooks and academies, will the Ming Dynasty no longer listen to us in a few years, and instead let those scholars take charge?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked this question very suddenly, but Mr. Hu answered it as a matter of course.

"That's for sure!"

“People are greedy!”

"Seeing the large piece of gold placed in that frame, you and your descendants of the Zhu family are the most qualified to take it."

"But in the end, not only did you not say anything about not taking it, but you also asked people to set the rules for themselves and see how to take it. How could that person tolerate it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, and then stared at Master Hu for a long time.

"Luckily we have you, Weiyong!"

"Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty would have been in turmoil long ago!"

"But I just don't understand why our Ming Dynasty has so many problems just after it was established?"

"Are we so bad?"

No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang was upset.

He, Zhu Yuanzhang, was the Hongwu Emperor who founded the Ming Dynasty and expelled the Tartars and restored China.

In terms of merit, that's already the highest level.

But when I turned around and took a look, wow, it was indeed an achievement, but the pit was also a real pit.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang, who was already very concerned about his reputation, tolerate this?

Old Mr. Hu looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's anxious appearance, smiled and shook his head.

"Old Zhu, you are such a nice person!"

"It's obviously not your fault, but you're still taking the blame for it!"

"Let me tell you straight, 70% of the responsibility for this lies with that old fellow Liu Ji, Liu Bowen!"

"You were just tricked!"

"What? Liu Bowen is trying to trick us?"

Zhu Yuanzhang almost jumped up.

He never expected to hear news about this 'old friend' at this time and place.

Speaking of Liu Bowen, he is also a celebrity.

In many biographies, strange stories, and epics, this man has been almost deified.

If Mr. Hu had not come to this era, he would have had a filter for Liu Bowen.

After all, it’s not possible that all those novels and TV dramas I read as a child in my previous life were in vain, right?

But when I really reached this era and thought about it carefully in combination with my memory of the past, I immediately dispelled the mystery.

This is a traditional scholar with some wisdom and means.

He is well versed in how to protect himself, but he also has his own little calculations.

It’s not that mysterious, but he does have some abilities. That’s the only person!

But Zhu Yuanzhang is different!
He had very complicated feelings towards Liu Ji and Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen had long felt that Zhu Yuanzhang had a murderous nature, so he had been thinking about protecting himself and escaping early on.

But he just has the pride that is inherent in intellectuals.

If you want to run away, just run away. Just throw away the things you have on hand. Isn't that enough to live your life?

But he refused to do that and kept pretending to be sick or something.

He clearly wanted to escape, but he caused all these dramas, and even dragged others to help him. Moreover, he secretly disliked Zhu Yuanzhang.

But he didn't know whether he said these words intentionally or accidentally, but they all reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears.

This really made Zhu Yuanzhang go crazy!

If you don't think highly of me, you should have just said so earlier and left.

You are pretending to be sick and saying you are going to die. What are you doing?
So, the two of them started arguing.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not tolerate his sour temper, which was just a joke.

Anyway, if all the little things between the two of them were put together, it would definitely be a hit TV drama script, with full of dramatic conflicts.

On the other hand, Mr. Hu is much better.

If you are afraid of death and want to escape, then do it openly.

He said it clearly in front of Zhu Yuanzhang that he was afraid of being killed if he continued working here, so he wanted to run away.

This blatant and straightforward approach made it difficult for Zhu Yuanzhang to take action.

Moreover, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, the biggest difference between Master Hu and Liu Bowen is that although Master Hu is obsessed with self-preservation and leaving, this does not prevent him from continuing to give Zhu Yuanzhang advice.

On the other hand, Liu Bowen not only procrastinated and claimed to be sick and avoided the question, but also did not even give the opportunity for a serious conversation.

Asking people to give advice and express their opinions is just pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Comparing these two sides, it would be strange if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't get angry.

After all, he himself is not a good-tempered person.

As a result, I never thought that after so much time had passed, I suddenly heard Liu Bowen's name again, and he even said that he had been cheated.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang tolerate this?
"Whiff, wheeze, wheeze!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took several deep breaths before his breathing slowly calmed down.

He looked at Mr. Hu with a cold face.

"Weiyong, tell us in detail, how have we been tricked?"

"Besides, why did you take the blame for others?"

After spending a long time with Master Hu, Zhu Yuanzhang was familiar with these new words that popped up from time to time.

So, he used it just as smoothly.

Mr. Hu is not a good person!
As a person who enjoys lying down and having fun, let alone the fact that Liu Bowen is no longer around, even if that person were still alive, Mr. Hu would dare to mock him directly in front of him.

Without him!

not afraid!

Even if the person was still there and started making a fuss in front of him, why would Hu Weiyong be afraid?
So, seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang's neck was almost getting thicker from breathing, Master Hu slowly spoke.

"Speaking of this matter, we have to talk about the time when our country was founded."

"You were a rough guy at that time. You knew nothing about governing and building a country."

"I guess you'll just be laughing foolishly then."

"Oh, another thing you're thinking about is holding on to the military power."

"I guess you were completely confused after being fooled by Lao Liu."

"Then people flatter you, saying that our family is restoring China, so we must inherit the orthodoxy and so on. When you hear that, you are happy and believe it."

"Then, I was tricked!"

Even though Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely angry when he heard this, he still scratched his scalp in annoyance.

"Weiyong, please tell me what's going on, please."

"We founded our country to inherit the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty. How come we are considered to have jumped into a pit?"

"This is our achievement!"

"Why do you sound like this is not only not an achievement, but it's a trap set by others?"

"I don't understand what you said!" (End of this chapter)
