Chapter 2 Zhu Biao’s three ways to die
"How can we tolerate false talk before the Holy Spirit comes?!"
Zhu Biao shouted loudly and winked at Mao Erhu, indicating that he should be pulled out quickly.
Obviously, Prince Zhu Biao wanted to save Ji Boying's life. In this world, the only one in the world who could snatch a life away from Lao Zhu was Zhu Biao, except Queen Ma.
Zhu Biao couldn't help but take another look at Ji Boying. His expression did not change even before the emperor was furious. This character and demeanor alone were better than those of many other nobles in the court. Even if he put aside his ability to predict the future without knowing whether it was true or false, he could not help but look at it.
Talking is also a rare talent.
A Biao made up his mind to throw Ji Boying into prison first, and then find a day when Lao Zhu was happy to get rid of his crime. However, this kid's mouth was too unscrupulous, he dared to say anything, and deposed the Prime Minister.
Is it possible to say this?!
"slow."
Lao Zhu, who was already angry, said something softly and waved his hand. Mao Erhu understood it instantly, bowed and took three steps back, then turned and walked out of the hall.
This made A Biao feel nervous. Could it be that Ji Boying was telling the truth? Does his father really want to dethrone the prime minister system that has been passed down for thousands of years?!
Ji Boying was not surprised at all by Lao Zhu's reaction. Zhu Yuanzhang in history was indeed a murderous master. He would cut off people's heads at the slightest disagreement, and he would kill three or nine tribes without hesitation.
However, bloodthirsty is not indiscriminate killing. At least from Lao Zhu's point of view, everyone he killed had his own reasons for killing.
History has given Lao Zhu a comprehensive evaluation: a wise tyrant.
Starting from the First Emperor, looking at the more than 400 emperors, most of them were kings of moderation. There were not many wise emperors and many tyrants left. However, the only emperor who was both a wise emperor and a tyrant was Lao Zhu.
On the throne of the emperor, Lao Zhu looked domineering and stared at Ji Boying standing in the palace.
'First he predicted that we would kill Hu Weiyong, and now he predicted that we would depose the prime minister system. Could this guy really be an immortal who knows the future?'
'Since he said that our posthumous title was not determined by Biao'er, then who is the next emperor of Ming Dynasty?!'
‘Second child? Third child? Fourth child?’
'Let's just ask him, and it won't be too late to cut him after asking.'
At this time, Lao Zhu already had some faith in Ji Boying's status as an 'exiled immortal'.
"Let me ask you, what happened to the prince, and why can't he inherit our throne?"
Abiao, who was next to him, frowned. He didn't want to believe that he, who was so strong and strong, could die young.
Ji Boying glanced at Lao Zhu and then at A Biao.
"Can I have a chair?"
"I have hemorrhoids."
Zhu Biao frowned even more, thinking how could this guy be so illiterate and dare to ask for a seat in front of the emperor.
Just when he was about to stop drinking, Lao Zhu spoke.
"Give me a seat."
The word "simple" clearly shows Lao Zhu's attitude, which makes Zhu Biao even more convinced that what Ji Boying said just now "to depose the prime minister system" is true.
Ji Boying, who had taken his seat, crossed his legs and looked directly into the eyes of Emperor Hongwu with a calm expression.
"On April 25, the 25th year of Hongwu's reign, Prince Zhu Biao passed away, and his posthumous name was Yiwen."
Even though Lao Zhu was mentally prepared, when he heard the three words "Zhu Biao died", his eyelids twitched, his eyes dimmed, and he subconsciously looked at Zhu Biao beside him.
"Father, please be at ease. Not to mention whether what Ji Boying said is true or not, even if it is true, I still have twelve years to be by your father's side."
Zhu Biao, who was involved in the incident, was actually forgiving and spoke out to comfort Lao Zhu.
"Biao'er, don't talk nonsense. Just twelve years is nothing. If you want to inherit our throne, you have to provide for us until the end of your life!"
Lao Zhu scolded, this true love between father and son was rare in the royal family in ancient times.
"Tell me why the prince died!"
Lao Zhu asked sharply, obviously getting emotional.
"There are three opinions. I don't know which one your Majesty wants to listen to."
Like a magic trick, Ji Boying raised his hand and grabbed it. He actually held out a can of happy water out of nothingness, and drank a few gulps.
This is another small benefit of the system. Ji Boying can obtain food from this world at will, but only finished food.
"We all want to listen."
Lao Zhu was slightly shocked by Ji Boying's operation of changing objects out of thin air.
"The first type is scary to death."
"Historical records indicate that during the Hongwu period, Ming Taizu killed as many as 150,000 officials, and more than half of the founding officials were sentenced to death."
Old Zhu who was sitting on the throne was stunned. He had never thought that he could kill so well. Zhu Biao beside him took a deep breath and said nothing, but he dismissed the first option in his heart. He, Zhu Biao, was the founding prince of the Ming Dynasty and had a psychological
The ability to bear it is not that bad.
"The second option is to die with medicine."
"Who drugged me?!"
Lao Zhu raised his eyebrows and showed his attitude of killing people.
"According to the rules of criminology, whoever benefits will be drugged."
"The King of Qin, the King of Jin, the King of Yan, etc. are all possible."
As soon as these princes spoke out, Lao Zhu couldn't sit still. If these three kings were in Fengtian Palace at this time, Lao Zhu would have already raised his sword to chop them.
"Father, I thought it would definitely not be this second cause of death."
When faced with the cause of his death, Zhu Biao's answer was a sincere one.
"Um."
Lao Zhu didn't say much.
Although his brats were usually lawless, they were all obedient in front of Zhu Biao.
"The third type is sudden death."
"I personally prefer this option, because Prince Yiwen, who is now His Royal Highness, died very suddenly, most likely from cerebral hemorrhage."
"What is cerebral hemorrhage? Why did Biao'er get this serious disease?!"
Lao Zhu said quickly that since he has learned about the future, he will never allow it to happen again.
"In short, death from overwork."
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Biao who was standing.
According to historical records, after Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty deposed the prime minister system and sent the six ministers directly to heaven, the peak period was within eight days. He reviewed and reviewed 1,660 memorials and handled 3,391 state affairs. On average, two memorials were reviewed and reviewed every day.
There are more than 100 cases, and more than 400 cases of state affairs are handled.
But the fact is that in the 10th year of Hongwu, Lao Zhu issued a decree that "the prince will be asked to handle government affairs in advance and then reported to the public." This means that most political affairs were actually handled by the prince Zhu Biao.
It’s not surprising that 007, who has been working with such high intensity for ten years, died of overwork.
"Biao'er, starting from tomorrow, you will not be able to deal with political affairs for more than four hours a day."
"Father, son and minister..."
"This is our will!"
Zhu Biao paused and smiled helplessly.
"My son, I obey your orders."
Lao Zhu nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to look at Ji Boying.
"If the prince really dies as you said, then who will be our second emperor of the Ming Dynasty?!"
After speaking, Lao Zhu and A Biao looked at each other. They both had the same answer in their eyes, their eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying.
"On the tenth day of the fifth lunar month in the thirty-first year of Hongwu, the emperor died in the Qianqing Palace and was buried in the Xiaoling Mausoleum on Zijin Mountain. His posthumous title was "Emperor Qin Ming Qi Yun Jun Gong Unified Heaven and Great Xiao Gao Gao", and the temple name was "Taizu". Zhu Yun, the emperor's grandson, was buried in front of his body.
After succeeding to the throne, he changed the Yuan Dynasty to Jianwen the next year and was known as Emperor Jianwen in history."
The emperor’s grandson? Zhu Yunwen?!
The faces of Lao Zhu and A Biao became ugly at the same time.
Especially Lao Zhu, he has the final say on who will pass the throne to his grandchildren. If he wants to pass it on to his grandchildren, his first choice must be Zhu Xiongying, but it is Zhu Yunwen who becomes the emperor. Doesn't that mean...
