Ming Dynasty: The ghost betrays the Confucian sage, my son Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 151 Who is at the top of the Zhu family’s food chain?

150. Who is at the top of the Zhu family’s food chain?

The moonlight is blurry.

It falls in the exquisite attic at the back of the academy, like a dream.

The moonlight shines through the window and gently shines on the soft couch in the room. Fourth Master Zhu is sitting on the edge of the bed, looking up at the bright moon.

Zhao Xuanzhen sat up on the soft couch, wrapped her white arms around his thick waist, pressed her soft body against his back, her dark hair fell down, her head buried in his neck, her beautiful face with a An unspeakable charm: "Why, you have been tossing me so hard recently, are you afraid that I will return to the grassland?"

Fourth Master Zhu held her slender hand with a smile flashing in his eyes: "If you return to the grassland, I will naturally look for you."

Zhao Xuanzhen hugged him tightly with a faint look in her eyes: "Then it's settled!"

At this moment, an indescribable reluctance surged in her heart. Although she wanted to take advantage of Fourth Master Zhu at first, after getting her involved, she found that her time at the back of the academy turned out to be the most relaxing and comfortable time since coming to the capital.

She had the opportunity to return to the grassland, but after receiving the letter from her master, she decided to stay. Perhaps, she will need to stay here for a long time until the mission is completed.

Jin Yiwei said that there were masters from the Yuan Dynasty near Liuhechuan at that time. Later, Chang Yuchun was assassinated, and he was killed by a boxing technique similar to Chi Laowen.

He somewhat understood those kings.

Come to the Beggar Clan Headquarters.

As soon as he arrived in the yard, he heard Zhang Dingbian coughing from the room, which made Fourth Master Zhu feel nervous. He quickly opened the door and saw Zhang Dingbian, whose face was pale and coughing up blood in pain.

Indeed, this does not make sense. Chang Yuchun had never fought with anyone before his death. So how did the other party quietly attack Chang Yuchun?

"I'm vomiting blood. I'm going to find the doctor." Fourth Master Zhu said anxiously.

"Why are you still coughing up blood?" He was shocked.

……

The spring night is short and the day is high, and since then the king will not go to court early.

Fourth Master Zhu was stunned for a moment.

But Fourth Master Zhu got up, dressed neatly, and looked back at Zhao Xuanzhen on the soft couch. The cool gauze could not hide the delicate skin and the plump and graceful body.

As he said that, he kissed her domineeringly.

Yesterday, Zhang Dingbian fought with Chi Laowen, and all his internal organs were injured. Fourth Master Zhu entered the main altar and went straight to Zhang Dingbian's yard to see how his injury was.

Zhang Dingbian was obviously surprised. He was stunned and blurted out: "What a scumbag!"

He frowned slightly, recalling Chi Laowen's fist in his mind, and said coldly: "Old Zhang, Chang Yuchun died under such a punch, and his internal organs were shattered by the punch. Could it be that the murderer was Chi Laowen?"

Fourth Master Zhu nodded slowly.

Snapped!
He patted his head and said, wake up and leave quickly, otherwise you won't be able to get out of this room today.

But, is this too coincidental?

Wu Yu stood aside, frowning, and reminded in a serious tone: "You have shown all your strength this time. They may suspect that Chang Yuchun's death is related to you."

"The doctor has come to see her. She needs to be nursed back to health for a while. Don't worry, she won't die." Zhang Ding spread his hands.

"If I return to the grassland, I will become the empress." Zhao Xuanzhen winked charmingly, "You will be my beloved concubine when the time comes."

Zhebie was changing his dressing. The wound on his chest was so deep that it was shocking to see the bones.

Even Wu Yu didn't know what her real mission was.

……

"Gang leader, Chi Laowen's punch is just like your killing punch. The true energy travels along the blood vessels and hits the internal organs." Zhang Dingbian smiled bitterly, "Fortunately, you gave me the elixir yesterday, otherwise, I'm afraid I would have been doomed. .”

When she saw the content of her master's letter, she was shocked for a long time.

Only then did Fourth Master Zhu feel relieved.

Huitong Pavilion.

He thought Fourth Master Zhu was worried about how to keep the Princess Beiyuan.

"Shut up!" Wu Yu's voice suddenly became cold and stern, "Have you forgotten the real purpose of our coming to the capital? Once they find out that you are the murderer of Chang Yuchun, we will be in a desperate situation. How can we continue to act? ?”

"I was the one who killed him."

After a night of tossing, Zhao Xuanzhen fell into a deep sleep in the early morning. She would definitely not be able to get up today.

Why is this girl so ambitious? It's a pity that there seems to be no female emperor in Yuan history.

"Why should you sleep?" Fourth Master Zhu pulled her into his arms, "I still have many tricks, but you haven't tried them yet."

Fourth Master Zhu had a black hair and waved his hand: "No need, women are like clothes, there are plenty of them, there is no need for me to hang myself from a tree."

Hearing this, Zhang Dingbian pondered for a moment and then shook his head: "But Chang Yuchun has never fought with anyone before. He died suddenly. Gang leader, don't underestimate Chang Yuchun. He was born with supernatural powers. He is Chi Laowen." It’s not that easy to kill him.”

"Cough cough..."

"Go to sleep." Zhao Xuanzhen whispered in his ear.

There was also a person vomiting blood, that is Chi Laowen. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Next time, I will definitely hit that Fourth Master Zhu."

"Gang leader, don't worry." Zhang Dingbian said firmly, "Everyone in the Beggar Clan will definitely help you keep the gang leader's wife."

Chi Laowen seemed nonchalant, with a fierce look in his eyes, "I will definitely kill Fourth Master Zhu before I leave this time."

Chi Laowen was shocked by these words and immediately closed his mouth.

The Poison King on the side smiled sadly, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Witch Queen, don't worry too much. No one witnessed the showdown between Chi Laowen and Chang Yuchun at that time. Besides, who would believe that Chang Yuchun would be quietly killed? Where’s the assassination?”

Wu Yu's face was still cold, and his tone was even colder: "Even if he is suspected, it will be a huge trouble for us."

She was actually not willing to bring Chi Laowen here this time, but now the Thirteen Mengwu Wings had split into two factions, one supporting Queen Qi and the Crown Prince. In desperation, she could only take this impatient companion with her.

"You just stay here for the next few days and don't go anywhere." Wu Yu snorted coldly, "We will wait until the news comes from Tanma Junsi before making any plans."

The three of them agreed in unison without any objection.

Wu Yu turned around and left, returning to his room.

Ao Gu, who was wearing a black robe, was already waiting for her inside. As soon as she saw Wu Yu entering the door, she immediately bowed and saluted: "Queen Wu, I have sent a message to the grassland, ordering them to slow down when escorting the prisoners, and to delay the exchange date after arriving in Jizhou."

Wu Yu raised the corners of his lips slightly and showed a satisfied smile: "Little Auntie, you have become a lot more mature and steady since you came to the Ming Dynasty capital."

Ao Gu smiled respectfully. She was indeed a proud person, but she was always respectful in front of Wu Yu. This was not her intention, just because her master also regarded himself as a junior in front of Wu Yu.

"By the way, something big happened in the Ming Dynasty recently." Ao Gu said with a hint of sneer in her tone, "The nobles of Huaixi embezzled people's property in Fengyang area. This matter caused Zhu Yuanzhang a headache. Prince Zhu Biao is handling the matter. Although the crown prince is still young, he has already shown his father's ruthless methods. Not only did he kill many lieutenants and colonels, he also planned to go to Fengyang in person to completely shock those nobles."

"He goes to Fengyang?" Wu Yu's eyes flashed with joy, "Isn't that just what we want?"

……

Kunning Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, who were waiting for dinner, were discussing Fengyang again.

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a cold tone: "Biao'er, you beheaded their adopted son, and you did a great job of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger with one hand. No, they have already sent a confession, saying that the slaves did it behind their backs, and they have For the crime of negligence, he also said that the people’s fields would be returned.”

Zhu Biao responded with sharp eyes: "Father, what my sons and ministers are worried about is what they do in disguise. Therefore, I decided to go to Fengyang in person. I originally planned to go back to Fengyang to worship my ancestors, didn't I?" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slowly and said Agree: "You might as well go first."

"Hmph, when we get to Fengyang, if they are willing to obey and violate the law, I will kill them again." Zhu Biao said coldly.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said: "Kill! Since they are just domestic slaves or relatives, then kill them without mercy, make them scared, kill them..."

While he was talking, Queen Ma tenderly handed him a cup of tea. Zhu Yuanzhang took the tea and took a sip. His expression suddenly changed: "Ah... it's so hot... sister, you want to burn me to death."

"Humph, I can't have hot tea in a hurry."

Empress Ma rolled her eyes at him, sat down and said, "I've heard everything about your father-in-law's fight. This case must be handled. But you also have to think about it. So many Huaixi generals are involved, and why are you still involved?" There are so many officials from the imperial court to local governments. If we really want to investigate, how many people will be involved? Such a big case happened in the early days of the Ming Dynasty. It must be handled, but what should be done? This is a big article, and there is no rush. !”

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at each other, and he spread his hands: "Look, what your mother said was so good."

Zhu Biao also nodded in agreement.

The father and son had a tacit understanding not to talk about Fengyang and eat first.

After all, one of them is afraid of his wife and the other is afraid of his mother. Queen Ma is the one who stands at the top of the Zhu family's food chain.

Queen Ma thought for a while and then said with a smile: "Biao'er, if you want to go to Fengyang, take Fourth Master Zhu with you. His hometown is also Fengyang."

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was excited and quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, Biao'er, take Fourth Master Zhu with you."

"People may not be willing to do it."

Zhu Biao looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly, "You also know the fourth master's temper."

Queen Ma smiled and said, "I'll tell you, he will still give you some face."

……

Zhongshan stands towering in front of you.

Putting on plain clothes, Wu Yu stepped to the foot of the mountain, looked up, and couldn't help but sigh: "Zhongshan is full of dragons and tigers, and it is really the residence of an emperor."

This is Zhuge Liang's famous saying. It comes from her mouth at this moment, which shows her deep understanding of Zhong Shan.

She walked calmly, like a leisurely tourist, slowly heading towards the top of the mountain.

After she left, Zhu Di's figure appeared at the foot of the mountain. His eyes were deep, staring at Wu Yu's retreating back, his brows furrowed: "What on earth is this girl going to do?"

Ah Fu behind him reminded softly: "Gang leader, our brothers discovered that this woman has either walked along the Qinhuai River or climbed Zhongshan Mountain recently. Sometimes, she will also make gestures in the air, like a Feng Shui master."

Zhu Di frowned.

If this bitch is going to cause trouble, you have to keep an eye on her.

"Gang leader, should we follow?" Ah Fu asked tentatively.

"Don't worry, I'll test her out when she comes down the mountain." Zhu Di waved his hand, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

Ah Fu was a little worried: "But she is very strong. What should I do if I slap you to death? I am not qualified to be the leader of the gang yet."

"Shut up!" Zhu Di glared.

The two waited quietly at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain for an hour, and finally saw Wu Yu slowly descending the mountain.

Zhu Di deliberately pretended to have met by chance, and shouted to Wu Yu in surprise, "Huh? Pretty sister? What a coincidence, why are you here?"

Wu Yu was obviously a little surprised, but then he showed a bright smile and responded: "Hey, isn't this my future husband?"

Ah Fu on the side was shocked.

What? Husband? Damn it, the gang leader, there is a woman here? This news needs to be told to Miss Miaoyun.

"Beautiful sister, we met by chance, it means we are destined." Zhu Di patted his chest, "Sir, may I buy you a drink?"

With a smile on her lips, Wu Yu stepped forward, took Zhu Di's little hand, and teased: "Okay, it seems my future husband is really happy."

"When I grow up, you will enjoy the blessings." Zhu Dihao said angrily, "I, the leader of the Zhatian Gang, will definitely be able to support you."

Wu Yu was amused: "You are really as virtuous as your master."

Zhu Di shook his head seriously: "No! It's different!"

Wu Yu asked with great interest as he walked: "What's the difference?"

Zhu Di looked serious: "I am Fengliu, my master is mean, very different."

Wu Yu laughed.

……

After Zhu Di saw off Wu Yu, he hurried back to the mountain behind the academy.

However, when he passed the academy, he saw Fourth Master Zhu and hurriedly went up and said, "Master, I have made a major discovery."

Fourth Master Zhu sniffed his nose and glared at Zhu Di, whose face was red: "Have you been drinking?"

"Yes, with Sister Wu Yu." Zhu Di said.

"What? Wu Yu? She is your grandma even in her own year." Fourth Master Zhu said with a black line, "You are so strong, why did you drink with her?"

"I'm not doing this just for you, master." Zhu Di was speechless.

Next, he crackled about how the Zhaotian Gang monitored and followed Wu Yu.

Fourth Master Zhu’s eyes widened with confusion.

Wu Yu always goes to Qinhuai River and Zhongshan recently? Is there anything special about these two places?

"You did a good job this time." Fourth Master Zhu encouraged.

"Hmph! That bitch really thinks I want to marry her?" Zhu Di shook his head, "How can I let her old cow eat my tender grass?"

Fourth Master Zhu rolled his eyes and asked him to continue monitoring.

Perhaps because most of the Zhatian Gang were children, this would not attract Wu Yu's attention.

Zhu Di went crazy.

Fourth Master Zhu came to have tea with Yao Guangxiao.

"Old Yao, what do you think is so special about the Qinhuai River and Zhongshan Mountain in Yingtian City?" Fourth Master Zhu asked.

After hearing this, Yao Guangxiao's eyes flashed with light, and he lowered his voice and said: "This is true. Legend has it that these two places are where the dragon's veins are located!"

Dragon vein?

Fourth Master Zhu seemed to have caught something.

What Wu Yu is good at in Mengwu Thirteen Wings is the ethereal luck technique. After she came to the capital, she appeared at the Dragon Vein again. Could it be that she came to destroy the Dragon Vein?
"Old Yao, let me ask you, can dragon veins be destroyed?" Fourth Master Zhu asked.

"Of course!" Yao Guangxiao spread his hands, "It is said that the dragon veins of Yingtian City were destroyed by Qin Shihuang. During the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor visited the south and saw the majestic dragon energy in Jinling City. The alchemists reported that sooner or later the emperor would be born here, and that the First Emperor would live forever. How could another emperor be allowed to appear, so Qin Shihuang ordered people to dig out the dragon's veins, remove the dragon's energy from Jinling City, and dig up the Qinhuai River to let the dragon's energy flow into the Yangtze River and merge into the sea."

Fourth Master Zhu: "???"

True or false, I don’t know how powerful it is.
