Daming: Depriving Zhu Yunqi of luck at the beginning

The old man was not afraid of Zhang Mingfu's actions at all, as if he knew that the other party would not kill him.

Sure enough, Zhang Mingfu didn't draw his sword, but frowned and said:

"It's you old ministers who don't give up..."

"How many times have I told you, don't come to me again."

"Now that the world is peaceful and the people are healthy, why should I take the lead in this rebellion?"

"Just because Zhang Shicheng is my father?"

"But he didn't recognize my mother either!"

The old man said calmly:

"If King Wu had recognized His Highness's mother, then His Highness would not have survived to this day."

"Back when Xu Da Chang Yuchun attacked Pingjiang City, King Wu specially ordered the dead to take you mother and son to escape..."

"The reason is to leave the last bloodline."

Zhang Mingfu asked very cautiously:

"Who are you? How do you know me?"

The old man replied:

"Return to Your Highness, the old minister's name is Xu Yi."

"Xu Yi..."

Hearing this name, Zhang Mingfu knew that the people who came to him this time were completely different from those small characters in the past.

Xu Yi is the most important general under Zhang Shicheng, and the biggest help for Zhang Shicheng to gain a firm foothold in Suzhou.

This person successively served as Zhang Shicheng's Shangshu Zuocheng and Shangshu Youcheng, with extraordinary status.

Before Pingjiang was breached, Xu Yi led his army and was defeated by Xu Dachang Yuchun, and then disappeared.

Zhang Mingfu did not expect to see this veteran here today.

"The veteran has already gathered many old troops of the King of Wu. They all gathered in Suzhou. I also hope that the prince can lead the people to fight against Zhu together! Restore my great Zhou mountains and rivers!"

"My son is now very strong in martial arts, and he is of the blood of King Wu, so he will be able to stabilize everyone's hearts... The people of Wu are looking forward to the return of King Wu's heirs!"

Zhang Mingfu said angrily:

"Da Zhou is long gone!"

"I've heard this kind of words countless times... just those wine bags and rice bags, no matter how many you gather, what's the use?"

"When my father was alive, they couldn't win battles. They only knew how to ask for credit, drink and have fun... Why, now that my father is gone, they can still become brave and good at fighting?"

"The people in Wu are looking forward to it... as long as the people live well, it's not because those old ministers only want glory and wealth!"

"Nowadays the common people live and work in peace and contentment, if I take the lead in rebelling against this, it will be against the law of heaven!"

"Xu 'Prime Minister', you are not too young, so you can do it yourself."

Done.

Zhang Mingfu ignored Xu Yi who was kneeling on the ground, turned around and opened the door, and walked out.

It's been a long time.

The servant who was guarding the door at the beginning walked in cautiously and closed the door.

At this time, Xu Yi had already got up and sat on the chair.

Judging from the expression on his face, he didn't seem very angry.

It was as if all Zhang Mingfu's reactions were within his expectation.

"gone?"

Xu Yi poured himself a cup of tea in an orderly manner, and asked.

The servant nodded:

"Yes, master, that one has left the teahouse."

"It's a pity," Xu Yi said regretfully, turning the porcelain cup in his hand, "it was such a good deal to give him a big seat for nothing, but he didn't want to sit."

The servant asked again: "Master, since that person is unwilling to join, then we..."

"No matter what he thinks, we must continue to do it."

Xu Yi said in a deep voice:

"Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't have many chances to go out of the palace. The guards around him must be much less than those around the palace."

"That's all for Yangzhou, wait for them to go to Suzhou..."

"That's when we should do it!"

Speaking of it.

Xu Yi took a sip of hot tea and said:

"As long as we successfully assassinate Zhu Yuanzhang..."

"At that time, it's up to him not to admit his identity."

Chapter 92

a few days later.

He Li and Hu Wei, who was in charge of escorting the prefect of Yangzhou to the capital, returned together.

After reporting the results, Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with what the two of them had done.

then.

Decided to continue on the road.

A group of people walked forward while watching and playing.

After crossing the river, passing Zhenjiang Mansion and Changzhou Mansion.

at last.

After seven days, he came to the boundary of Suzhou Prefecture.

Outside the city, inside the carriage.

Zhu Yuanzhang finished writing a note, folded it, opened the curtain, and handed it to Hu Wei who was guarding the carriage.

"Find a reliable person and send this back to the capital. I know some of you can use it."

"You don't need to show it to the prince, just pass it on to Commander Wu Dewei. After he reads it, he will know what to do."

After hearing this, Hu Wei quickly clasped his fists and said:

"According to the order."

Then he went to pass on his life.

Lao Zhu put down the curtain and turned back into the car.

Zhu Xiongying, who was reading a book, put down the book and said curiously:

"Grandpa, what was the note you just sent out?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have any secrets about his precious grandson, so he replied immediately:

"It's nothing, let's ask Wu Dewei's commander to send some capable officers to keep an eye on those high officials in the capital."

"Especially Lee Sun-jang, the Korean prince..."

"These days when we came out, we never knew what was going on in the capital, and we were very panicked."

"Your father just studies too hard, his heart is too kind, and he is not cruel enough to his courtiers. We are afraid that he will suffer in front of those old and mature ministers."

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's answer.

Zhu Xiongying said in his heart:

Isn't this what Jin Yiwei will do in the future?

mention this.

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said:

"Grandpa, when you return to Beijing this time, it seems that you still have to form a real new guard who can monitor all officials."

"Although the name of Jin Yiwei was made up for He Li to deceive Zhao Taichu, if you really have this guard, you will be able to worry less about it in the future, Grandpa."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said:

"We thought so too."

"Those courtiers always feel that they want to be like the Song Dynasty, where the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats share the world."

"Isn't this nonsense?"

"The world belongs to our old Zhu family, who wants to govern with them?"

"Even if we share the world with the common people, we can't take advantage of them."

"People from our old Zhu's family not only want to rule the world, but also rule them, a bunch of scholar-officials!"

Speaking of which.

He Li's voice suddenly came from outside the car.

"Master, young master, I see that the clouds are getting darker this day, and it seems to be raining."

"Why don't we go into the city and find an inn to stay?"

Zhu Yuanzhang lifted the curtain to take a look.

as predicted.

It was broad daylight just now, and it suddenly became like night.

It looks like a storm is coming.

"Let's enter the city as soon as possible."

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.

The group continued to set off, and just after passing through the city gate, the torrential rain fell.

Seeing that it was too late to find the inn, He Li asked the groom to drive the carriage to a thatched shed beside the city wall.

It just so happened that there was a group of people and a carriage in the thatched shed at this time.

Among the people who were hiding from the rain in the thatched shed, a young man saw that He Li was coming to hide with his carriage, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him:

"Hey, hey, don't come in!"

"First come, first arrived, don't you understand?"

"This hut is only so big, it can fit a carriage at most, if you come in again, won't you push us out?"

He Li frowned immediately after hearing this, and was about to refute the boy.

at this time.

The curtain of the carriage that was hiding from the rain was opened, and a burly old man stepped out of it.

"Liu Ke, don't be rude!"

Liu Ke is the boy's name.

Seeing his master stepping out of the carriage and reprimanding him, the boy didn't dare to speak anymore.

The burly old man was tall and straight, with great temperament. He clasped his fists at He Li and said:

"In such a heavy rain, the most important thing is not to get wet."

"If you don't mind, get out of the car and hide in this straw shed with the old man."

"As long as the people and horses don't catch cold, no matter how wet the carriage is, it's fine."

Zhu Yuanzhang heard this in the car and said with a smile:
