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

Chapter 998: Zhu and Hu have a showdown

Master Hu twisted his body and then helplessly discovered that this bastard Lan Yu was indeed a man who started out in the army.

Damn it, even though both parties were standing in the room, this guy didn't relax at all.

The key point is that this kid attacked too quickly just now, and both his hands were restrained.

This made it difficult for him to exert any strength.

And Zhu Yuanzhang, old man, seemed to be just standing there watching the fun, but he was obviously blocking the door.

What the hell, making me work so hard?
The emperor blocked the door, and the duke took action?

At this moment, Mr. Hu felt so fucking honored.

However, he still had to refute what he should refute.

"Zhu Chongba, you are picking on the weak!"

"How come I am the only one in the court who can be the chief clerk in charge of baggage?"

"Do you think those people in the court are dead?"

"Besides, you have led the army in person, who in the army dares not to obey orders?"

"As for the provincial capital along the way, that's even more of a joke!"

"If the army led by the emperor himself cannot even gather food and fodder, you will probably have to kill your way through!"

"So, Chongba, can you just let me go?"

"I can help you two take care of the government affairs, but I really don't want to go on this expedition!"

"I'm not like your family who has never suffered this kind of loss and doesn't know what it's like to march. I suffered enough from this in my early years."

"I'm getting old now, and I don't have the ambition to make achievements anymore. Why should I torture myself like this?"

What Mr. Hu said was so sincere and heartfelt.

But Zhu Yuanzhang just looked at him with a smile and even nodded in approval.

"Yeah, yeah, you're quite right!"

"But Weiyong, other people may be able to do other things well, but your magical skills are unmatched by others!"

"Ok?"

Master Hu was stunned by what Zhu Yuanzhang said: "What kind of magical trick is this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Master Hu with a playful expression: "It's the method of taking away a full warehouse of grain with a wave of the hand!"

"With this method, how much expenses have we saved along the way?"

"And seeing how relaxed you were before, I guess you can carry all the food and supplies for this expedition to the north by yourself."

"Haha, if that's the case, how much manpower and food can you save just by yourself?"

When Mr. Hu heard this, he didn't find it strange.

Because these things are actually not secret, as long as you pay attention, you can actually discover them.

Even Master Hu exposed himself on his own initiative.

Otherwise, as the Prime Minister of China, with so many grains, fruits and vegetables appearing on the market, could it be that Zhu Yuanzhang was dead?

Especially fruits and vegetables, they are out of season.

As a result, not only are they open for sale, but they can also be supplied to all officials in the Chinese country in terms of quality and quantity. This is simply a naked show-off.

Therefore, after Mr. Hu frowned, he still shook his head.

"No, I still don't want to go!"

"It's true that I have the ability, but I don't want to go!"

"It's tiring, life is hard, and most importantly, I have no goal in life!" After these words were spoken, Zhu Yuanzhang was completely stunned.

In fact, because this answer was so unexpected, the smile on his face did not fade away, but froze on his face.

Before he came, he thought that Master Hu would deny it flatly, curse at him, and refuse to comply, but he never thought that after he had exposed such a big "flaw" and trump card of the other party, the other party actually admitted it.

The key point is that after admitting it, you still refuse to work for his family?

Isn't this right?

Zhu Yuanzhang was really confused at this moment!
I've never been so confused before!
I felt that the whole thing and the whole person were beyond my expectations and I was confused.

why?
There has to be a reason, right?
How come I suddenly don’t recognize myself anymore?
Originally, in Zhu Yuanzhang's view, he knew very well that while Mr. Hu was avoiding suspicion, he was also gradually distancing himself from the royal family.

This certainly made Zhu Yuanzhang, a guy who cared a lot about his reputation, feel a little embarrassed that the other party did not trust him, but in fact, he rationally felt that this was actually good for both parties.

After all, he knew himself well. He would often dream of taking Hu Weiyong with him to be buried in the Xiaoling Mausoleum.

To put it bluntly, Hu Weiyong did not trust Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang really had no good intentions.

But the two people who were originally awkward with each other are now showing their cards and turning the table?
Why is this?

What’s the purpose of this?
The place suddenly became quiet. Even the most reckless Lan Yu felt that something was wrong.

He thought about it and based on what Master Hu had just said.

Doesn't that mean that Master Hu only obeys orders and not announcements?
You still consider yourself a minister of the Ming Dynasty, but don't think you can mobilize people to be the king's vanguard with just one sentence. No one will pay attention to you!

hiss……

Lan Yu quietly let go of Master Hu, and even carefully tidied his clothes and put on a smile.

This is the boss!

This is the real boss!
We, Lan Yu, must be more respectful!
Even though Lan Yu used to be like a mouse seeing a cat in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, he had already habitually given in.

On the contrary, because of this, he admired people like Mr. Hu even more.

This shows real confidence and courage.

Zhu Yuanzhang finally came to his senses after watching Lan Yu's actions.

At this time, he did not yell like a fool, nor did he lose his temper on the spot. Instead, he waved at Lan Yu first.

Lan Yu was disgusted by this.

how?

You see there is a big melon to eat, and you let us go?
Isn't this appropriate?

We still want to listen to the excitement? !
But when Zhu Yuanzhang glared at her, Lan Yu immediately turned around and left without even stopping.

Without him!

He figured it out. The melon was too damn big. If he didn't get to eat the melon, he would get killed by a piece of carelessly thrown melon rind. That would not be worth it.

After Lan Yu hurriedly and tumbling out of the door, Zhu Yuanzhang finally calmed himself down and leisurely sat down on the armchair beside him.

He no longer had the previous urgency and excitement, but instead was a lot more relaxed. He crossed his legs, especially his left foot, which was shaking back and forth. He looked so relaxed.

He squinted his eyes at Master Hu and asked, "Why are the cards suddenly on the stage?"

"You're not afraid of me with just this little trump card?"

"That won't do. Those who dared to confront the emperor in every dynasty were those who had large armies at their disposal and had sufficient supplies of food and supplies."

"But you turned the table over just relying on this immortal skill of being able to plant crops and carry objects?"

"Isn't this a bit too unsafe?"

"Tell me, Weiyong, what do you think?" (End of this chapter)
