Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Runan, the Marquis of Ji'an and others have come together to ask to see Your Majesty."

In Wuying Palace, a eunuch came in to report.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes narrowed.

The whole person looked angry.

"Get them out of here!"

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, the eunuch shrank his head, responded, and hurriedly and carefully went outside.

However, when he reached the door, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rang out again.

"Let them in!"

Upon hearing this, the eunuch stopped and responded.

Going outside at a faster speed...

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression did not look good.

He knew that these bastards would never give up and would definitely come here to find him!

Originally, he didn't want to see these people because he was upset.

But then I thought again, since these people insisted on coming.

In this case, it's not that I can't meet them.

And by the way, give them a critical hit!

Let them learn a good lesson.

It also allows me to vent the anger in my heart.

……

"My Lords, His Majesty invites you."

After the eunuch came outside, he looked at Mei Yin and others and spoke.

Official business.

When Lu Zhongheng and others heard this, they all felt relieved.

I know that what I and others thought before was indeed correct.

Although the emperor was angry, he still had some feelings for her.

I won't do things too cruelly.

At this time, the emperor was willing to meet him and others.

Then these things will be much easier to handle.

It won’t be too ugly.

Immediately, one by one, they rushed towards the Wuying Palace impatiently.

We exchanged glances from time to time on the way.

……

"Greetings to Your Majesty, and regards the Holy Spirit."

After arriving at the Wuying Hall, Runan Hou Mei Sizu and others saluted Zhu Yuanzhang one after another.

Zhu Yuanzhang, however, sat there, reviewing memorials and handling government affairs.

He didn't even raise his head.

It seemed that despite such a loud noise, he didn't hear anything at all.

I have no idea how these people came in.

Zhu Yuanzhang's performance immediately made these people dare not say anything more.

One after another, they knelt on the ground very tactfully.

Silent.

There were several more people in the Wuying Hall, but the atmosphere became even quieter than before!

Depressed!

As the silence grew longer, the atmosphere became more depressing.

Mei Sizu, Lu Zhongheng and others who were originally full of confidence.

I started to feel uneasy.

Even some cold sweat seeped out.

The fear that Zhu Yuanzhang once dominated me once again appeared in my heart.

They were so scared that they couldn't even breathe.

Time passed bit by bit.

It seemed like a hundred years had passed!

Zhu Yuanzhang finally put down the red pen in his hand and raised his head.

He looked at them and said, "What are you all kneeling there for?
Get up. "

But after hearing what he said, none of Mei Sizu and others dared to stand up.

Still kneeling there obediently.

It was because of them that someone caught them.

What if you hit a sore spot?

It can also be heard that Zhu Yuanzhang was really angry at this time.

So, they all stood there, kneeling obediently.

No one dared to get up.

No one dared to speak first.

He was afraid that he would be regarded as the first to stick his head out and be targeted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"At this time, you know to kneel here?
Why didn’t you know how to discipline your own son before?

All of you should discipline your sons properly.

Don't let them be so lawless that they think they can take human lives and do whatever they want.

Then things wouldn't have come to the point they are today!
I wouldn't let you, the fathers and uncles, come here and kneel in front of me and act like this!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice seemed relatively calm at the beginning.

But the more he spoke, the more agitated he became, and his speech became faster and faster.

The boundless anger inside is about to burst out!
“Your Excellency, Your Excellency, we know we were wrong.

All of this is my fault.

It was the criminals and others who failed to educate their children and nephews well.

Let them be lawless.

It is you who taught me a lesson.

When we return, we will punish these bastards..."

Mei Sizu gritted his teeth and spoke.

Lu Zhongheng and others also hurriedly spoke up.

They all admitted their mistakes here, and their attitude was very respectful.

But Zhu Yuanzhang's anger did not subside.

Instead, he became even angrier.

"At this time, do you know you are saying these things here?

What about before?

I have said more than once before that we should not be corrupt or abuse our power, but we should also not take human lives lightly.

The iron monument is still standing there.

I have written down my earnest teachings and requirements for you clearly.

To remind all of you not to make the same mistake again!

We have also ordered you to memorize it.

It is also specially placed in a conspicuous place.

So that you can see it when you go to and from court.

We have been good enough to you!
Patient enough!
But how do you repay us?
You take my kindness for granted!

Let your sons and nephews make trouble in my Ming Dynasty and don’t treat people as human beings!

How long have you all been living a good life?
Have you completely forgotten all the hardships you experienced back then?
Are you starting to not treat human life as human life?
Pat your conscience and think carefully!
What a hard life I lived in the past.

How much did you hate corrupt officials back then?
Many of you have lived through hard times.

Few were of noble birth.

Have you forgotten all those original ideas?

I have been caught in the rain in the past, and now that I have the ability, I don’t think of holding an umbrella for others.

Heart to heart.

But it's even worse than what those people did!

Even more inhuman!
You are a piece of shit, what the hell are you talking about!"

Zhu Yuanzhang became angrier as he spoke. He grabbed the inkstone on the table and smashed it down again.

It was smashed to pieces!

The fragments splashed on the bodies and faces of Mei Sizu, Lu Zhongheng and others, causing great pain.

But they dared not move.

"We know that there are many people behind you who are saying that we have changed.

They said that after I became emperor, I forgot my roots and my old brothers.

I'm watching you too closely.

It's cruel and ungrateful to you.

But you should think carefully about this.

Is it us who have changed, or you?
Why should we treat you like this?!
Now that you have reached a high position, aren’t the glory and money you have gained enough?

Why do they still want to disgrace the Ming Dynasty and ignore the law?
You guys are changing too fast!

So fast that we can’t react?

It hurts our hearts again and again!
I can’t understand what happened to that group of people, those old brothers.

How could someone who hated corrupt officials so much become like this?

How could this be? !
Does the area below the buttocks really have such great magical power?

How could such a huge change happen to so many people in such a short period of time?!

I really want to move forward together with you old brothers!
I really didn't intend to do anything to you! I don't want to be Emperor Gaozu of Han.

But what about you?
But they don’t understand our good intentions!

He keeps on taking bribes and breaking the law, and keeps on doing so many things that make us sad!

You treated the iron standard we set as bullshit!
Liao Dingguo’s death before also did not give you any warning!

Still lawless, still doing these things here!

How come the Tatars didn’t have it?

Isn’t it because of a series of extortion and heavy taxes that don’t treat people as human beings?
When the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown, what was the fate of the dignitaries of the Yuan Dynasty?
I think you know it!
When the nest is overturned, how can there be any eggs?
Such a simple truth and such a bloody example are right here.

But you still haven't learned any lessons!

Do you think that the Ming Dynasty really collapsed?

Will your descendants be able to gain any advantage?

How good will the outcome be?
And you can continue to enjoy wealth and glory!

Think more!
You are harming the Ming Dynasty at this time!

It seems to have nothing to do with you.

But you don’t know that you yourselves are also part of the Ming Dynasty!

And he is a high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty!
High position and authority!

If the Ming Dynasty really collapses in the future, you people will also suffer a lot!! "

Zhu Yuanzhang's words were very serious!

After saying these words, his eyes turned red.

It is unknown what Mei Sizu and others are thinking exactly.

"I know why you came here today.

I also know what you think and want in your heart.

But what we are telling you now is, don’t say a word!

Let's go back.

Don't waste time here.

This is impossible!
Now that you have done it, you have to admit it.

Your nephews and nephews are all quite old now.

If you make a mistake, you must admit your punishment.

You must learn the corresponding lessons.

No one will learn their lesson if they are not taught the appropriate lesson.

If you make a mistake, you should be punished!"

Zhu Yuanzhang changed the subject and spoke out.

I took the initiative to bring this up.

“Everything is according to the procedure.

After the verdict comes out, those who deserve to be killed should be killed, and those who deserve to be punished should be punished!

Just do whatever you want.

You can't ask me for mercy at this time!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang scolded these people, he looked at them with a dark face and said with some disappointment.

There was a lot of determination in the voice.

After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, these people felt a pang in their hearts for a moment.

His expression changed drastically.

They really didn't expect that seven of them, the marquises, would come together to beg for mercy for their nephews and nephews.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even allow it!
They were not even given a chance to beg for mercy!

Just say these words directly!
This is really unexpected and makes people feel particularly uncomfortable!

It makes people extremely angry!
unacceptable!

But it was obvious that they couldn't just leave like this.

This time they put all their efforts into coming here to plead for their son and nephew.

It depends on Zhu Yuanzhang’s current condition.

If the punishment is really carried out according to the procedures of the authorities.

None of their sons have ever had a good life!

The prime minister's son will be chopped up and fed to the dogs, and the sons of these people will not have a good ending either!

You have to shed your skin even if you don't die!
They may not want to see their children and nephews.

Learned this lesson.

They love their son very much.

They themselves are unwilling to punish.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang is going to take such a cruel action.

How could they possibly agree?
He then gritted his teeth and continued to beg for mercy.

“…Please give me a chance.

These kids were also first-time offenders.

Let us go back and break the legs of these bastards.

Let them learn a lesson from this.

This... this experience is not necessary, right?
It really got chaotic, and it’s not pretty…”

Lawrence Lu spoke.

The others also spoke up.

But they all have similar meanings.

He also took the initiative to offer a lot of conditions.

For example, being willing to make a proper apology.

For example, providing for old ladies in the future.

However, there is only one core meaning.

That is, he cannot be too harsh on his son.

Zhu Yuanzhang directly rejected their request.

"This matter is not our fault, only yours for not educating your children well!
If something goes wrong at this time, then you should be punished accordingly!"

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, these people became angry, annoyed, and anxious.

Mei Sizu immediately wanted to take out the iron certificate of immunity from death that he had hidden in his arms.

I am using the privilege granted by the Iron Certificate of Immunity from Death to talk about this matter.

However, Lu Zhongheng, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, quietly reached out and pulled it.

Don't let him continue doing this.

Next, these people talked to Zhu Yuanzhang again here.

Still no use.

So I left here quickly.

They all lowered their heads with gloomy expressions.

I seem to be in a particularly bad mood.

The confidence I had when I came here is now gone.

Originally they thought that this visit would surely allow Zhu Yuanzhang to give them face and give them a lighter sentence.

But who could have imagined that the face of these seven people was so worthless.

Not only that, this bastard also gave himself and others a severe lesson!
The more I think about it, the more angry I get!

The more you think about it, the more irritated you become?
I have never seen such an excessive piece of shit!

"Brother Lu, why did you stop me at that time?
You won't let me take out the iron plate that will save me from death?"

After leaving the palace, voices finally rose among the few people who had remained silent.

Mei Sizu seemed a little confused.

This was agreed upon at the beginning.

Since they could no longer beg for mercy, they took out the iron plate of immunity from death.

Use the iron certificate of immunity from death to make the point.

Who would have thought that Lu Zhongheng would make such a choice in the end.

Lawrence Lu said: “I think it’s better not to bring it yet.

This is our last resort.

It is also the greatest guarantee.

Don’t you understand what Your Majesty means?

It is said that the matter will be handled according to the results of the handling by the authorities.

Then, you might as well wait a while.

Let's see what kind of judgment the court will make next.

It depends on the situation.

What if the result is really bad?

By that time, it won’t be too late to use the iron plate of immunity from death to rescue these bastards.

Otherwise it would be wasted like this, which would be a bit of a pity.

After listening to what Lu Zhongheng said.

Mei Sizu thought about it, and felt that what Lawrence Lu said made a lot of sense.

Suddenly, he was filled with gratitude towards Lawrence Lu.

I think Lawrence Lu has considered everything carefully.

He still thinks that Zhu Yuanzhang would not really take ruthless action.

The son of himself and others was sentenced to such a heavy sentence.

Even if the sentence is really severe, as long as the death-free iron plate is used, it will definitely be possible to rescue him...
