Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 155 Death of Yang Xian!

"But Your Majesty, if you want that, why did you appoint him as the Left Prime Minister of the Secretariat, and even give him the title of Duke of Qin? Doesn't this also increase his power?"

Chu Nan was also puzzled when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, and then asked his own questions.

But when Zhu Yuanzhang heard Chu Nan's words, he frowned.

"I am just following your advice. Didn't you say that to deal with Hu Weiyong, we must first let him run rampant?"

"I did this to make him rampant so that I can deal with him more easily, right? Why don't you understand?"

So that's how it is. In fact, Liu Bowen didn't know about the plan to deal with Hu Weiyong.

Now after listening to them, Liu Bowen understood everything. He had also witnessed Hu Weiyong's arrogance in Nanjing and thought that he should indeed be dealt with.

So now he also supports Chu Nan and the others in dealing with Hu Weiyong. Then he didn't say anything, but silently watched what strategy they were going to come up with.

"Your Majesty, I feel the same way." Chu Nan became anxious when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's rebuttal.

"There are actually two reasons why I asked Hu Weiyong to deal with the Yang Xian matter. The first is that Yang Xian has always been Hu Weiyong's mortal enemy. If Hu Weiyong can deal with Yang Xian, he will think that he is deeply trusted by Your Majesty and become even more arrogant."

"And if he becomes more arrogant, he will reveal more of his true colors, making it easier for Your Majesty to take action."

"The second question is, Your Majesty, do you really believe that the incident in Jinling was caused by Yang Xian alone?"

When he heard the first point, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in approval, but when he heard the second point, he remained silent and frowned.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not a fool. He was indeed a little angry about the Yang Xian incident and lost some of his judgment.

But when he heard Chu Nan's words, he immediately became suspicious and felt confused.

Yes, could Yang Xian really have been responsible for the incident in Jinling? Although all the signs and evidence pointed to Yang Xian, it still seemed a little unreasonable.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was persuaded by him, Chu Nan also spoke.

"And if it's not Yang Xian, who else do you think could be in Jinling City?"

"Hu Weiyong! It must be Hu Weiyong!" Zhu Yuanzhang spoke in a decisive tone, and then he suddenly realized.

"So this is why you, Chu Nan, asked Hu Weiyong to deal with Yang Xian?"

"Yes." Chu Nan nodded seriously.

"As long as Hu Weiyong has problems and Yang Xian has no problems, he will definitely reveal clues when he deals with Yang Xian, and this is what I want to see."

"But." But Liu Bowen was confused again when he heard it.

"If Hu Weiyong is fine, Yang Xian is fine too, and Yang Xian is killed by Hu Weiyong, what will happen?"

"Mr. Liu, you worry too much." But after hearing Liu Bowen's words, Chu Nan smiled.

"Yang Xian is going to die anyway, so isn't it great that he can still have this effect before he dies? But if he can't do anything, then there's nothing we can do. Just let him die."

"That makes sense!" After hearing Chu Nan's words, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that it was very much to his liking and nodded at Chu Nan.

"Chu Nan, what you said makes a lot of sense. Yang Xian is going to die anyway, so it would be great if he could help before he dies. But if it doesn't work, forget it!"

"Don't think about it. Just do as you say. Let Hu Weiyong deal with Yang Xian. I will arrange for the Imperial Guards to keep an eye on him secretly. If there is any problem, Hu Weiyong will be dealt with!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Hearing this, Liu Bowen could only nod in agreement.

But he sighed again in his heart. Although he thought Yang Xian deserved to die, he was his student after all.

He just felt very regretful that he didn't have the ability to teach Yang Xian well, but there was nothing he could do. Yang Xian had made such a mistake, so he had no choice but to die. ...

Jinyiwei Prison.

Many people were imprisoned here, all of them were serious criminals of the court, including corrupt officials, some arrogant and powerful generals, ministers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and then Yang Xian.

At this moment, Yang Xian no longer had the arrogance he had in the past. Instead, he was wearing prison clothes and had a dull look on his face.

At the beginning, he would shout from time to time that he was wronged and wanted to see Zhu Yuanzhang.

But after being beaten several times by the Jinyiwei, he became much more obedient and understood a lot. He realized that he was probably doomed because the Jinyiwei dared to beat him at will.

So at this moment, Yang Xian was sitting in the prison, lifeless, not knowing what to do.

"Hahahaha!" But at this moment, a hearty voice rang out, and then a man wearing a first-grade civil servant robe walked over.

Seeing Yang Xian inside, he immediately laughed: "Master Yang, you have really suffered! Look what good things I have brought you."

"Come on, open the door quickly."

Following the visitor's instructions, a Jinyiwei immediately opened the prison door, and then two Jinyiwei brought a food box and a jar of fine wine and placed them on the table in front of Yang Xian.

Then, a Jinyiwei opened the food box and took out the dishes inside. There were three dishes, including a dish of braised beef, which was red and full of oil, and very tempting.

There is also a braised pork elbow, the plump elbow is covered with soy sauce, it must be delicious when used to soak rice.

Then there was a big roast chicken that was so fat and greasy. The skin looked crispy and your mouth would be filled with oil once you took a bite.

In addition, there was a large bowl of rice, which seemed even more fragrant in this harsh prison.

"Hmm?" Yang Xian was already hungry at this moment, but when he saw the person in front of him, he immediately controlled his hunger, and then looked at the person in front of him with a gloomy face.

"Hu Weiyong, why are you here?"

That’s right, the person who came was Hu Weiyong.

"Hahahaha, Lord Yang, what are you doing?" Seeing Yang Xian like this, Hu Weiyong started laughing.

"I came to see you and brought you some delicious food and wine. Why are you so defensive? I mean well."

"Good intentions?" But when Yang Xian heard Hu Weiyong's words, his eyes turned cold.

"Hu Weiyong, do you still have good intentions with me? Didn't you come here today just to see me, Yang Xian, make a fool of myself?"

"If you really have good intentions, you should report to His Majesty on my behalf and tell him that I, Yang Xian, have something to say to him!"

"Do you have something to say?" Upon hearing this, Hu Weiyong's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Fortunately, he came and handled the matter himself, otherwise it would be dangerous if Yang Xian met Zhu Yuanzhang.

Thinking of this, Hu Weiyong also laughed.

"Yang Xian, then tell me, is there anything you want to say to His Majesty?"

Having said that, Hu Weiyong directly ordered the Jinyiwei to retreat and not let them hear the next words.

"What can you say?" Yang Xian also became angry when he heard it.

"I, Yang Xian, have been punished by His Majesty, and I didn't do anything wrong. Why do you want to arrest me?"

"If you really wanted to kill me, why didn't you do it right away? Why did you do it now? I, Yang Xian, refuse to accept this!"
