Minghe Hall.
"Du Qian and below committed the crime of deliberately framing the grandson of the current emperor. The crime is unforgivable. However, because of his meritorious teaching, let's keep his body intact."
"This is the end of this matter!"
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head and glanced at Du Qian again, waved his hand and said impatiently.
"According to the order!"
Hearing the words, Wang De was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly bowed and answered.
Although he expected Du Qian's outcome, he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Moreover, His Majesty seems to have no intention of continuing the investigation. He seems to want to deliberately protect the people behind Du Qian. Even Huang Zicheng is not prepared to summon him for questioning.
"Your Majesty! The common people know they are wrong..."
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty..."
Du Qian's face was ashen, and he finally plucked up the courage to look at Zhu Yuanzhang and begged.
But Zhu Yuanzhang no longer paid attention, and stood up and walked directly to the back hall, his face full of solemnity and struggle as he walked.
"Come on!"
Wang Defa shouted outside the hall.
Immediately afterwards, two Yulin guards walked in quickly from outside the hall, dragging the struggling and wailing Du Qian out of the hall quickly.
A generation of literary talents and famous Confucians fell away.
...
Wandering Palace.
In the garden, Zi Ning pushed Zhu Yunxi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and walked slowly.
It seems that since Zhu Yunxi gained favor, he no longer dislikes the cold palace in front of him.
This feeling of going upstream from a desperate situation made him a little excited. He was already looking forward to step by step stepping on those who once looked down on him.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came, and Hongyuan walked quickly from a distance and bowed respectfully.
"Zi Ning, don't you like those flowers the most? Go ahead."
Zhu Yunxi glanced at Hongyuan, gently patted Zi Ning's hand on the wheelchair, and said gently.
"Ah."
Zi Ning agreed obediently, nodded to the red kite, and walked straight into the flowers, like a butterfly, sniffing the fragrance of the flowers while gently picking a few flowers, like a happy child.
"Is there a result?"
Zhu Yunxi asked lightly while looking at Zi Ning among the flowers.
"Du Qian has been executed by His Majesty's order. Qin Fen, the director of the Imperial College, did not escape. Their families were all sent to prison."
Hongyuan nodded and said slowly, with a complicated expression between her brows.
After hearing Hong Yuan's answer, Zhu Yunxi curled his lips and said nothing more.
"His Majesty seems to have no intention of continuing the investigation. He is not venting his anger on you. It is more like he is afraid that the long nights and dreams will implicate the people behind it."
Hongyuan hesitated for a moment and said unwillingly.
"Yes, I have long expected this result."
Zhu Yunxi nodded and said lightly.
"why?!"
"Don't he want to know who is behind your back?"
Hong Yuan asked reluctantly.
"So what if I know? I'm afraid it will make him even more embarrassed."
"Besides, do you think he hasn't seen through all this?"
"If the investigation continues and the Crown Princess is really found, no matter how he deals with the Crown Princess, Zhu Yunwen will inevitably be implicated. He cannot be cruel to an imperial grandson who has high hopes for him and is almost certain to be the crown prince."
"Once the truth comes out, if he doesn't do anything, he will definitely leave something to say to the court officials. Therefore, the best solution is to stop here."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and explained patiently.
After hearing Zhu Yunxi's answer, Hongyuan frowned, her eyes full of unwillingness.
She felt unfair for Zhu Yunxi. If Zhu Yunxi hadn't given the order, she might have rushed into the Jinxiu Palace right now.
"Okay, now that this matter has been settled, there is no need to mention it again in the future. I don't think that I can bring her down through this incident. The days are long, and we will take our time to play with her."
"How about what you were asked to do?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled, comforted Hong Yuan, and asked in a different direction.
"It's done."
Red Kite nodded and replied softly.
"Okay, then we should go."
"Zi Ning!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled and waved to Zi Ning among the flowers.
"Your Highness, this is for you."
Zi Ning heard the call and came quickly, handing the garland she had just made to Zhu Yunxi with an innocent smile on her face.
"I am a man, how can I wear this appropriately?"
"Give it to you, Sister Hongyuan."
Zhu Yunxi smiled bitterly, pointed at Hong Yuan who was still a little unhappy beside him and said.
"it is good."
"Sister Hongyuan, give it to you."
Zi Ning smiled sheepishly, turned around and stretched out the wreath in front of Hong Yuan.
"Keep it to yourself!"
Hong Yuan said expressionlessly, pushed the wreath away, turned around and walked out.
"Why does she look angry? Did Zi Ning do something wrong?"
Zi Ning looked at the angry Red Kite and said hesitantly.
"Ignore her, it has nothing to do with you."
"Let's go. Haven't you always wanted to leave the palace? Now I'll take you out to see the outside world."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said seriously.
"real?!"
Upon hearing this, Zi Ning immediately showed a surprised smile and asked in disbelief.
"Is that still fake?"
"Set off."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and nodded.
Zi Ning agreed and immediately pushed the wheelchair to chase the red kite in the distance.
"Sister Hongyuan, just put it on, you will definitely look good!"
"No! Only a delicate little girl like you likes those things!"
"Put it on! Aren't you also a woman? It must look great on you!"
"No! If you keep pestering me, I'll kill you!"
...
outside of Kyoto.
In the countryside, Zhu Yunxi was sitting in a wheelchair basking in the sun, looking at Hongyuan and Zining who were distributing food and money to the villagers not far away, with a faint smile on his lips.
He did not intend to keep all the gold and grain awarded by Zhu Yuanzhang. There were only about thirty people in the Liang Palace and [-] shi of grain, which would last until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.
In addition, he also asked Hongyuan to find a cloth shop in the city to make clothes for the thousand pieces of brocade and distribute them to the people.
Opportunities are created by oneself. Instead of keeping those rewards to make others envious or even jealous, it is better to use them to do some good deeds and earn a good reputation.
The poor people here need those things more than he does.
Looking at Zi Ning and Hong Yuan who were busy, the corners of Zhu Yunxi's mouth rose inadvertently, especially when he saw the garland on Hong Yuan's head, his smile became even stronger.
After all, Hong Yuan couldn't resist Zi Ning and chose to be forced to accept the gift originally prepared for him. However, after Hong Yuan put it on, it did cover up some of the sharp edges on her body and no longer looked so inaccessible.
After a busy afternoon, they didn't set off back until the sun was about to set.
Before leaving, the villagers knelt down and saluted, expressing gratitude.
Zhu Yunxi did not reveal his identity. There are some things that you don't have to show off deliberately, and people will naturally praise him. Moreover, he did not choose to travel in a low-key manner when he went out of the city.
In order to comfort Hongyuan and Zining, Zhu Yunxi decided to take them to Yanyu Tower for a big meal.
When Zi Ning heard that she was going to Jiuyou Realm, she couldn't stop being excited along the way. She kept pestering Hong Yuan to tell her about the wonderful world outside, as if she was very curious about everything.
As a person who has been imprisoned in the palace for as long as he can remember, everything outside is indeed full of unknown temptations.
However, not long after they entered the city, someone knelt directly in front of the carriage, blocking their way.
Zhu Yunxi opened the curtains, glanced in front of him, and couldn't help but reveal a smile.
The person blocking the road was none other than Cao Yan, the head of the Jiaofang Department.
"Come and talk."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and said lightly.
Upon hearing the call, Cao Yan hurriedly climbed to the side of the car on his knees and saluted Zhu Yunxi who was sitting in the car.
"Please forgive me, His Highness the Third Emperor Sun! Please spare your life!"
Cao Yan said with a pale face while kowtowing.
"When did I say I wanted to kill you?"
Zhu Yunxi asked with a smile, but he was also confused.
"The assassination you suffered in Jiaofangsi has nothing to do with this official!"
"I don't know how that killer got into the Jiaofang Division. I swear to God!"
Cao Yan knelt on the ground and explained earnestly.
After hearing Cao Yan's words, Zhu Yunxi realized that it was because of the assassination in Jiaofangsi when he arrested the rebels last time.
Hong Yuan did doubt Cao Yan at that time, but he knew that all that had nothing to do with Cao Yan, not to mention that Cao Yan didn't have the courage.
Because the more greedy a person is, the more afraid he is of death...
