Family ancestor Zhu Chongba: What happened to getting your daughter pregnant?

Minghe Hall.

"Ten percent?!"

"Then tell me, where did you get this 100% certainty?"

But after Zhu Yuanzhang heard what the three said, he curled his lips and snorted, looked at Zhu Yunwen with interest, and continued to ask.

"Reporting to Grandpa Huang, an hour ago, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong arrested several remnants of the rebels in Tianxiang Tower, and has obtained confessions from the traitors. The person who has been secretly helping the rebels is Xie Linzhou, Minister of the Ministry of Industry!"

"In addition, the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Tower has also confessed that the housekeeper of the Xie Mansion has secretly gone to Tianxiang Tower many times to meet with the remnants of the rebels and conspire, and helped Xie Linzhou deliver the news!"

"My grandson has personally interrogated the steward of the Xie Mansion. After recognizing the facts, the steward of the Xie Mansion has confessed and admitted that Xie Linzhou did indeed collude with the rebels!"

"In order to avoid long sleepless nights, my grandson has arrested Xie Linzhou and imprisoned him in the Qiaoqi Guards. How to deal with this person, please leave it to the emperor to decide for himself."

Zhu Yunwen organized his thoughts, raised his hands, and said loudly, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

"Okay, I understand. You can go back and hand over Xie Linzhou to the Ministry of Punishment. He will be under the custody of the Ministry of Punishment for the time being. You don't have to interfere anymore."

After listening to Zhu Yunwen's words, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Yunwen thoughtfully, waved his hand and said, his face unexpectedly calm.

"this…"

"Grandpa Huang, the traitor has been found, you should be happy..."

"It is indeed a bit reckless for my grandson to arrest Xie Linzhou without authorization, but this is all because he wants to share the worries of Grandpa Huang!"

"I hope Grandpa Huang will let his grandson continue to follow up on this matter. If Grandpa Huang plans to order the Ministry of Punishment to hear the case, grandson can help and will never neglect it!"

Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly and respectfully.

"I told you not to worry about this anymore! Don't you understand?!"

But Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly showed a look of dissatisfaction and shouted sharply.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was angry, Zhu Yunwen hurriedly lowered his head and did not dare to say anything more, but his heart was full of doubts.

The traitor thing was obviously a worry for Grandpa Huang, but now that he had found out the truth, Grandpa Huang was not only not happy at all, but was full of blame for him in his words.

"His Majesty..."

"It's over! I'm tired! Everyone, please step aside!"

Tong Wenjie wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted sharply by Zhu Yuanzhang. He was so frightened that he hurriedly closed his mouth, and both Huang Zicheng and Huang Zicheng showed a look of panic.

"Wang Defa, send Yunwen back!"

Seeing the struggling look on Zhu Yunwen's face, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed vaguely and said in a deep voice to Wang Defa beside him.

"Your Highness, let's go..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Defa hurriedly agreed, quickly came to Zhu Yunzhen's side, and whispered a reminder.

Zhu Yunwen had no choice but to bow and kneel before leaving Minghe Hall, but the doubts in his heart became deeper and deeper.

He didn't know why Grandpa Huang reacted like he did just now.

Huang Zicheng and Tong Wenjie were even more frightened, not daring to delay at all, and followed Zhu Yunwen out of the hall.

"Eunuch Wang, what happened to Grandpa Huang today? Why are you suddenly so indifferent to the traitor, even a little... indifferent?"

Outside the Minghe Hall, after Zhu Yunwen walked some distance away, he turned to look at Wang Defa in confusion and asked in confusion.

"Your Highness just needs to know that Your Majesty is doing this for Your Highness's own good."

Wang Defa hesitated for a moment, then said something meaningful with a smile on his face.

"What do you mean by this?!"

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, the confusion on his face became more obvious, and he asked in confusion.

"Your Highness, this is what I have said. You should go back and rest early. Your Highness will naturally understand your Majesty's intentions in the future."

Wang Defa smiled and glanced at Huang Zicheng and Tong Wenjie next to him, and said ambiguously.

Zhu Yunwen frowned, glanced at Wang Defa, who clearly had something to say, smiled bitterly, said nothing more, turned around and left, his face full of frustration.

I thought I could win the favor of Grandpa Huang by uncovering the traitor, but I didn't expect that it was completely opposite to what I expected.

He didn't know why Grandpa Huang was so abnormal, and he had no clue at all.

Wang Defa stood there, watching Zhu Yunwen gradually go away, and then turned back to Minghe Hall.

"gone?"

Seeing Wang Defa come back, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, glanced at it, and asked slowly, his expression a little solemn.

"Yes, I watched His Highness the Second Emperor and Grandson go towards the Jinxiu Palace with my own eyes."

Wang Defa nodded respectfully and said slowly.

"Isn't Xie Linzhou the Fourth Brother?! Why is he related to the rebel party again?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said with some confusion.

But when Wang Defa on the side heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he pretended to be deaf and pretended not to hear anything.

"I'm asking you a question! Are you deaf?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang noticed that Wang Defa had not moved for a long time, and immediately looked at Wang Defa with dissatisfaction and asked in a deep voice.

"Xie Linzhou is indeed very close to His Majesty Prince Yan. When Commander Chiang reported this matter to His Majesty, the old slave was indeed present."

"But since it is possible that he may seek refuge with His Highness Prince Yan, he may also seek refuge with Hu Weiyong or Lan Yu. I dare not make false claims until it is found out."

Wang Defa bowed his hands and said with a wry smile.

"Huh, you're the only one who's smart! You know that's not what I want to hear!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted slightly, looked at Wang Defa dissatisfied and said.

"Your Majesty is suspecting that the accidents that happened to Xie Linzhou and Lu Wenbo at the same time were due to the secret quarrel between the second emperor's grandson and His Highness King Yan for the title of heir?"

Wang Defa smiled helplessly and had no choice but to bite the bullet and say.

In fact, when he just discovered Zhu Yuanzhang's expression when he heard that the second emperor's grandson claimed that Xie Linzhou was an accomplice against the party, he understood Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts.

"That's right! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?!"

"Lu Wenbo had just been killed over there, and Yun Wen suddenly came into the palace to report, saying that Lin Zhou was a traitor?!"

"Are there such coincidences in the world?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty's worries are not unreasonable, but based on Lao Nu's understanding of His Highness the Second Emperor's Grandson, he does not seem to be such a scheming person. He should not take advantage of the traitor incident to target His Highness King Yan."

"Furthermore, the close contact between Xie Linzhou and King Yan is a top secret, and few people in the Jinyi Guards know much about it. How does His Highness the Second Emperor know about it?"

"Also, although Lu Wenbo is dead, his murderer has come and gone without a trace. He has not yet been found. He may not be someone from the north."

Wang Defa hesitated for a moment and said clearly.

Since His Majesty asked him to express his thoughts, he simply stated all his inferences at once, because he knew in his heart that His Majesty had actually thought of these things for a long time, and he was just saying it on His Majesty's behalf.

Sure enough, after Wang Defa said this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have too much surprise or doubt on his face. Instead, he nodded silently, thoughtfully.

"Send an order to Jinyiwei to ask Jiang Wei to investigate the matter thoroughly. At the same time, Xie Linzhou and a number of witnesses will be taken into custody. The deadline is two days, and they must be investigated!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Wang Defa after deep thought and said in a deep voice.

Originally, he was planning to temporarily imprison Xie Linzhou in the Ministry of Punishment for the Ministry of Punishment to accept the case, but then he thought about it and decided that just in case, it would be safer to leave the matter to Jin Yiwei.

"According to the order!"

Wang Defa hurriedly agreed and immediately went to Jin Yiwei to convey the order.

Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on the dragon couch, recalling what had just happened in the palace, and could not help but frown again.

Although Xie Linzhou's collusion with the party made his thoughts complicated, what he didn't expect was that even Tong Wenjie, the Minister of Household Affairs, was now so close to the Jinxiu Palace.

In this regard, he began to suspect more and more in his heart that the second emperor's grandson, who was usually well-behaved and obedient, seemed to have begun to compete for the heir apparent after the grandson's enthronement ceremony was cancelled.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment on his face.

On the other side, after Jiang Wei received the order, he immediately rushed to the Qiaoqi Guards with the Jin Yiwei, and directly took away Xie Linzhou and the traitor, as well as the two witnesses Chang Ping and Sun Xuan, and imprisoned them all in the imperial edict. The interrogation began overnight.

...

Splendid Palace.

When Zhu Yunwen returned to his dormitory with Huang Zicheng and Tong Wenjie, he found that Crown Princess Lu was already waiting in the palace.

Although the disaster that happened to the Lu family made her feel sad and resentful, her son's future was also a top priority in her heart. After knowing that her son went to report the traitor to His Majesty, she packed up her mood and came here early, and waited until this moment.

Seeing her son coming back, Crown Princess Lu hurriedly stood up to greet her, but then she noticed the look of decadence on her son's face, and she couldn't help but feel nervous and frown...
