Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Zhu Yuanzhang could not wait to meet Zhu Liangzu and his son Zhu Xian.

It was impossible to suppress their murderous intent!
I have long wanted to cut them into pieces and give them a good beating!

This guy Zhu Liangzu did whatever he wanted in Guangdong and did so many evil things.

This made Zhu Yuanzhang extremely angry and he wanted to kill them all.

As a result, now it is clear that this bastard Zhu Liangzu actually knew that this court official was doing something bad to him.

First of all, he made a false accusation against Daotong.

In order to use myself, with the help of my own hands, I can kill Daotong, a rare person who can stand up straight.

This kind of thing made him more and more angry the more he thought about it.

I think this bastard Zhu Liangzu is unforgivable!
Whenever I think about it, if it weren’t for Biao’er’s advice to me, and if it weren’t for Mei Yin, a good son-in-law, who said these words to me.

I was taken advantage of by that bastard Zhu Liangzu.

Committed such an unforgivable mistake.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel murderous.

I just want to kill them completely as soon as possible!
Now, the father and son have finally arrived.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang bear it?
Someone immediately brought Zhu Liangzu and his son Zhu Xian over.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered his men to call all the civil and military officials and nobles in Beijing over.

We need to teach these people a lesson.

Let them know what they can and cannot do!

Leave a deep impression on them.

When the officials in Beijing received the emperor's order to go to court, they were all very surprised.

They really didn't expect that the emperor would issue such an order at this time.

After all, today's morning court session had already ended.

Generally speaking, the emperor would no longer summon court officials to do things.

But today, the emperor did just that.

There are many unusual things revealed in these things.

There were also some well-informed people, or people with quick minds, who had already guessed the reason for the emperor's unexpected behavior based on some things that had happened during this period.

I'm afraid there is a great possibility that it has a lot to do with Yongjia Hou Zhu Liangzu.

All the court officials gathered in the main hall.

气氛极其压抑.

Those who were originally still wondering why Emperor Huang summoned them here this time.

At this point, all the doubts in my heart disappeared.

Because at this time, Zhu Liangzu and his son Zhu Xian had been tied up and kneeling in the most conspicuous place in the hall.

Even a person with the slowest reaction would understand what was happening after seeing this scene.

"Zhu Liangzu, what do you have to say?"

Seeing that everyone had gathered, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had a gloomy face and remained silent, looked very scary.

He looked at Zhu Liangzu and asked loudly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall changed drastically!
The atmosphere in the hall became heavy again.

Zhu Xian couldn't help but shake his body slightly.

Zhu Liangzu's expression also changed a lot.

"My Lord, I was wrong. I was really wrong!
I should not have forgotten the teachings of my superiors. After arriving there, I did some things that I shouldn't have done...

I have failed your Majesty's expectations and trust, and I deserve to die!

But...but I'm not that bad.

Some of the things I have done have their reasons.

Many people in Guangdong are unruly people!
Many people there are lawless and refuse to obey the king.

It can be said that many of them are barbarians!

He is arrogant and domineering in his work and has many bad habits.

If we fail to strictly demand of them, we will not be able to reverse the trend effectively.

As the saying goes, severe punishments are needed in troubled times.

We have to use heavy hands to deal with the many unruly people over there.

I admit that some of the things I did were not very good.

Not very reasonable.

But...but my heart is good.

It's for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.

There are many things that are not as outrageous as those people say.

Your Excellency, you must not just listen to those people’s one-sided words…”

Zhu Liangzu knelt on the ground and said these words.

The words were very sincere.

On the way here, he had been thinking about how to explain himself after meeting the emperor.

How to remove yourself from the picture as much as possible.

At this point, he no longer hoped to escape unscathed.

I just want to keep my wealth and glory.

If possible, he could also keep his title of Marquis of Yongjia.

Of course, if things cannot be done, then the title of Marquis Yongjia can be given up for the time being.

Relying on his qualifications, military achievements, and fighting ability on the battlefield.

As long as the person is still alive, the emperor will still be able to remember him when he goes to war in the future.

And he would eventually be able to regain the title of Marquis with his own abilities and achievements.

Become a marquis of the Ming Dynasty!
He already had an idea in his mind about how to deal with Zhu Yuanzhang.

That is, when the emperor is angry, you must never confront him head-on.

The attitude must be good.

Zhu Yuanzhang was definitely a person who became stronger when facing a stronger opponent.

The more you argue with him, the more annoyed he will be.

The punishment will be heavier!

However, we cannot just take responsibility for everything at once.

If they really endured it all, it would be because of what Daotong had done and the emperor's hatred of evil.

I also didn't get any good results on my side.

The best way is to have a good attitude, but also to make some excuses for yourself.

Don't confirm the matter.

And he believed that with his qualifications and the defense he made at this time.

Then the emperor would definitely not be too harsh on himself and his son.

There is still a way out for both father and son.

Not too miserable.

"Let's go to hell!"

But the next moment, something unexpected happened.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard what Zhu Liangzu said, he started cursing.

Are you still thinking about the Ming Dynasty?
Are there only unruly people over there?
You are colluding with those big families and powerful people over there, taking advantage of their power and oppressing the people.

But when it comes to us, they still talk in a very high-sounding way!

What he is still saying is that it is for the sake of Ming Dynasty and for the good of Ming Dynasty.

They really take me for fools!

Furthermore, you falsely accused Daotong, an official appointed by the imperial court, of sending a letter at an express speed of eight hundred miles.

Don't you just want to use me to kill Daotong?

You, Zhu Liangzu, are so brave to use us as knives!

Damn it, he has done something like this, and now he is making excuses!!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang cursed loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the inkstone and smashed it hard on Zhu Liangzu's head. He smashed the inkstone very accurately.

With one blow of the inkstone, the guy's head was blown off.

Zhu Liangzu was a man indeed, and he endured the pain without saying a word.

Just kneeling on the ground, motionless.

He knew that given Zhu Yuanzhang's temper, it would be impossible for him not to be beaten.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not that easy to talk to.

But he also knew that if he could endure these punishments, then everything would be fine.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang would never really kill himself.

It won't really do anything to yourself.

He also knew that the biggest mistake he made this time was not the things he did in Guangdong.

Instead, he falsely accused Daotong and wanted Zhu Yuanzhang to kill Daotong, which was exposed.

I don't know how Zhu Yuanzhang, this bastard, found out the truth...

"Look at this, you dog.

Let us take a good look. Is this what you meant by not doing anything against the law in Guangdong and doing it for the sake of Ming Dynasty?
Is this how you think about Ming?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang threw down the complaint that Daotong had filed against Zhu Liangzu.

"My Lord, I was wrong, I was wrong!
I deserve to die!
I really know I was wrong, please give me a chance, Your Majesty..."

He knelt on the ground and spoke repeatedly with a very humble attitude.

He no longer had the arrogant and domineering look he had when he was in Guangdong.

I can only say that this is worthy of Zhu Yuanzhang.

No matter how arrogant a person is, he will become obedient when he comes in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Don't dare to do anything excessive
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger was not so easy to quell.

Seeing him like this, the rage in my heart became even stronger.

"You bastard, are you wrong? You are not wrong!

You just know that the crime you committed is too big!
You know I can't forgive you!
That’s why I said I was wrong!”

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he stood up from the dragon throne.

In his hand, he actually held an extremely strong and thick whip.

"We have already made a preliminary investigation and found that more than 500 people died there because of you and your son!
And this is only a preliminary finding.

If we dig deeper, we think there should be more to it.

If you say you are wrong, will I forgive you?
So what should we do with those who died unjustly?
"Dog stuff!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, holding a whip, walked towards Zhu Liangzu and Zhu Xian, father and son.

Looking at the two of them, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

You, Zhu Liangzu, were conferred the title of Marquis of Yongjia by us.

When he helped us conquer the world, he made considerable contributions.

We remember all the contributions you have made and have not forgotten them.

So, it’s not impossible for us to give you a chance.”

Zhu Liangzu was originally frightened by what the emperor said.

At this moment, I suddenly heard what the emperor said, and I felt relieved.

I just felt that the situation had taken a turn for the better.

I knew that the emperor would never really do anything to me!
I knew that the emperor couldn't really kill himself!
Given his status and position, the emperor would definitely not do such a thing!
Now it seems that it is indeed the case!
Immediately, he kowtowed continuously.

Waiting for the emperor's verdict on him.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "If you find out later, the person who deserves death by you will not say anything.

Just say these five hundred people.

Since it is you and your son who have committed the evil, then each person will be punished with a whip!

You and your son should each receive 250 lashes. Is that not too much?

That is a living human life!
Now we can only give you one whip for each life you have. That is enough for you!
After I whip you, I will forgive you for what happened!"

Zhu Liangzu, who was waiting there for Zhu Yuanzhang to tell him how well he treated him, suddenly felt a pang in his heart and sank to the bottom of the valley in an instant.

Not only him, Zhu Xian also had an ugly look on his face and was trembling.

He really didn't expect that the emperor would say such words at this time.

One whip for one life!

It's okay if it's just one or two whippings, or even a whipping at all.

But now, it is more than five hundred whips!
Even if they were divided equally, 250 lashes per person would be too much for one person to bear!
Isn't he going to be beaten to death?
Mei Yin, who never uploads anything online, is also in the court at this time.

This was after he knew that Zhu Liang's grandfather and son were going to be brought to the capital, so he waited for me in the capital.

The purpose is to see the enemy die with one's own eyes and witness this historic moment.

He was not surprised at all when he heard what Lao Zhu said at this time.

I just feel that Old Zhu is worthy of being Old Zhu, he speaks and acts with firmness!
"Your Majesty, my father doesn't know many of these things.

I did all this without telling my father.

The blame is all mine.

If you want to punish someone, just punish me.

It’s all my fault, it’s all my fault.

I am willing to bear all the punishments!"

Zhu Xian spoke with a stuttering voice.

He had figured it out by now and could see that the emperor was not going to give them and their son a chance to live.

In this case, it would be better for him to take on all of this by himself.

Anyway, there is actually no difference between being lashed 250 times and being lashed 500 times.

Both he and his son were killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, a cruel and ruthless butcher.

It would be better for you to bear it yourself and die alone.

Save your father.

Your father is the real pillar of your family.

As long as dad is alive, many things will be fine.

If so, the Zhu family would not really decline.

After hearing what Zhu Xian said, Zhu Liangzu was stunned for a moment.

Then he turned his head sharply and glared at Zhu Xian fiercely.

He yelled, "What the hell are you talking about?!"

As he said this, he kowtowed to Zhu Yuanzhang.

“Sir, these things were done by me.

I have failed your Majesty's teachings.

I didn't take your words to heart.

I have always been optimistic and thought I could fool Your Majesty.

These are all my faults.

If you want to punish me, just punish me alone.

I am willing to bear these five hundred lashes alone!"

Zhu Yuanzhang watched others fighting with each other here, his expression did not change at all.

"Are you playing this trick here?

But it's no use!

The two men each received two hundred and fifty lashes, not one more, not one less.

Whoever it belongs to, it belongs to them!"

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he walked up to Zhu Liangzu.

Guards immediately stepped forward and pinned Zhu Liangzu and his son Zhu Xian to the ground.

Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and whipped him hard.

This whip contained his endless anger, and with just one whip, Zhu Liangzu's skin was torn apart!
