In today's world, the only one who can protect His Majesty regardless of everything is His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson of the Emperor.

Zhu Xiongying didn't know what He Li was thinking, so he continued:

"The king of Qin probably did something outrageous in the fiefdom, and Jin Yiwei's spies found out and got the actual evidence."

"In this way, he had to kill those Jin Yiwei, and in order to prevent you from being suspicious, he took the initiative to trouble you, making you think that he was just furious because you planted eyeliners in his mansion."

"If this matter is exposed, maybe grandpa will have to touch him."

He Li smiled bitterly and said:

"But Your Highness, these are just speculations."

"What if King Qin wants to teach Jin Yiwei a lesson?"

The corners of Zhu Xiongying's mouth raised, and he said with a smile:

"Whether it's pure speculation or not, I'll know when I see him."

"King Qin has done such a great thing once he returned to Beijing. Now, the capital will probably become lively."

……

Inside the palace.

Kunning Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang ran into the palace angrily, startled all the eunuchs and maids who were serving Empress Ma, and quickly fell to the ground.

"Get out, everyone get out!"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared, and the eunuchs and maids hurriedly retreated.

Empress Ma was sitting on a chair doing needlework. Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's fury, she asked:

"what happened?"

"Who made you angry again?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma and said angrily:

"Not our second child!"

"Really, just returned to the capital, and gave us a big surprise!"

Queen Ma frowned and said:

"Zhu Xi? What's wrong with him? Has he made you angry again?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the chair next to Queen Ma, blowing his beard and staring angrily, saying:

"This bastard even dared to kill our Jin Yiwei with a stick. The commander of Jin Yiwei we personally mentioned, Tong Zhi, he whipped wantonly in front of the people..."

"Does he still take his father seriously?"

Empress Ma looked calm:

"So, it's not a rumor that you installed Jin Yiwei in the mansion of your sons?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said confidently:

"So what?"

"We are the royal family, do you think you are still an ordinary family?"

"As the entrusted princes, they should know it well!"

"As long as they are conscious, what can Jin Yiwei do to them?"

Empress Ma sighed and said:

"It's not like you don't know what kind of person Ji'er is."

"It's no surprise that he does these things now."

"What are you going to do with him?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said:

"Disposal?"

"We don't deal with it."

"Let's continue to send Jin Yiwei to watch him secretly."

Empress Ma said helplessly:

"Then you let him go?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said, "Our position will be handed over to Xiongying sooner or later."

"These uncles of his are not fuel-efficient lamps."

"If you don't plant eyeliners as soon as possible, how can you control the heroes when they take the throne?"

"Especially this Zhu Xi, I'm still alive, so I'm so bold..."

"It seems that we must find an excuse to reduce his arrogance."

Queen Ma nodded and said:

"makes sense."

"There is a difference between monarchs and ministers, and there should be no ambiguity."

"What are you going to do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma and said:

"Sister, didn't we come to ask you to come?"

"What good way do you have to cure this second child?"

Empress Ma sighed:

"If I can cure him, I won't let him become what he is now..."

"Why don't you ask Xiongying?"

"He's much smarter than us, and he might know what to do."

"In this way, you can also test it first to see if Xiongying can handle his uncles. If he can, can't you sit back and relax?"

"If Xiongying doesn't know what to do, then we two elders will find a way to plan for him."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and suddenly said:

"Sister, what you said makes sense!"

"Then do it."

"Let's ask Xiongying first."

……

At night.

Zhu Xiongying returned to the palace.

As soon as he returned to his bedroom in the East Palace, he heard a message from the eunuch that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to summon him.

Zhu Xiongying also expected this, washed his face, and went to the Hall of Martial Heroes.

Inside the Hall of Martial Arts.

Zhu Yuanzhang backed away from the left and right, looked at Zhu Xiongying and said:

"My dear grandson, did you see Chang Sheng and Zhong Lao today?"

"Have you resettled Mr. Zhong's house?"

Standing in front of the dragon case, Zhu Xiongying cupped his hands and replied:

"Grandpa Huihuang, my grandson has seen you, uncle and Mr. Zhong are all well."

"The house is also taken care of by Mr. Zhong. You only need to send someone to take care of it, and Mr. Zhong will be able to live in it."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said:

"That's good."

"We heard that you went to Fusi of Jinyiwei Town today?"

"Presumably you already know about He Li, right?"

Zhu Xiongying knew that Zhu Yuanzhang must know his whereabouts, and he didn't need to hide anything from his grandfather, so he nodded calmly and said:

"Yes."

"Uncle Qin Wang taught He Li a lesson, He Li must have offended him, and my grandson will definitely reprimand him."

Old Zhu raised his head and looked at Zhu Xiongying in a daze:

"rebuke?"

"No, no, we didn't mean that."

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said:

"Since it's not, then why did Grandpa Huang reprimand He Li?"

"Repay the salary for one year?"

Zhu Yuanzhang spread his hands and said:

"Then we can't help it, you are so smart, can't you think why grandpa reprimanded him?"

"The reprimand is for others to see."

"We can't admit it, we asked Jin Yiwei to monitor your Uncle Wang, right?"

"Okay, stop pretending with grandpa here, we grandpa and grandson have nothing we can't talk about... Are you angry that grandpa fined He Li's salary? It's not easy, you go to the house tomorrow, Give him 300 taels of silver..."

"This is equivalent to a year's salary from the second rank."

"Take our money and rest for three months, so he can't be dissatisfied?"

Zhu Xiongying clasped his fists and said:

"Then the grandson will be on behalf of He Li, thank you Grandpa Huang!"

Chapter 240

"No need to thank you. Let me ask you, don't you have any dissatisfaction in your heart when your second uncle behaves like this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Xiongying and asked.

Zhu Xiongying said directly:

"Uncle Qin was in front of the common people in the capital, whipping the commander of the Jinyi Guards, it was too domineering. Anyway, He Li is also a third-rank official of the imperial court... Sun Er is a little dissatisfied."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded repeatedly and said:

"That's right, just say everything in front of Grandpa."

"We also see that your second uncle is very upset."

"Tell me, what can we do to cure him."

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said:

"According to the grandson's opinion."

"Grandfather, it is inconvenient for you to use this matter of Jinyiwei to reprimand Uncle Qin Wang, otherwise it will be true."

"I'm going to try Chun Wei soon."

"You can let Uncle Qin participate in it."

"When he gets into trouble...he's bound to get into trouble, then Grandpa Huang can use this as an excuse to cure him."

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said:

"The matter of the imperial examination is a major national event. Appointing talents and promoting talents for the country is a trifling matter... How can you use such an important matter to govern your second uncle?"

"If he disturbs the Chunwei meeting place, it will hurt my Daming face!"
