"The emperor brother shows that Mr. Zhang is not afraid of the tragedy behind him at all, or he has already thought of it. As the saying goes, the people are not afraid of death, how can they be afraid of death?"

Zhu Yili looked at Emperor Wanli for a moment, then said slowly:

"Mr. Zhang is good at governing the country and neglecting to defend himself. To be precise, he disdains to defend himself. If a person like Mr. Zhang does anything, he will think about his retreat first, and then he will not be able to do anything."

Emperor Wanli was a little angry when he heard this. He didn't want the people around him to sing opposite him, and he kept saying that Zhang Juzheng was good.

Even Empress Dowager Li dares to fight back without hesitation, let alone Zhu Yiliu?

So Emperor Wanli waved his hand and said in an orderly tone: "Don't worry about this matter."

Zhu Yiliu still maintained a peaceful attitude and tone: "Brother, the emperor has no right to ask, so how dare you care about these things? I just don't want to see the emperor's brother bear the infamous in the future, so I dare to go to Beijing to persuade him."

"Criticism? Who dares to scold me?"

"Emperor brother, the world's long mouths are everywhere. Can anyone else be blocked? Even if no one dares to scold the emperor now, what if it is a hundred years and a thousand years later? The merits and crimes from ancient times to the present are all commented on by future generations."

Although Zhu Yili was serious and thoughtful, Emperor Wanli not only did not feel anything, but his face was a little angry.

"Brother of the Emperor, please listen to the advice of the Emperor of the Emperor, don't worry about the court's affairs, and don't interfere. I heard that you founded the Zhu Group in Jiangling, and it is now in a prosperous state. Just focus on developing your own career. When the Emperor of the Emperor comes to visit Jiangnan, the Emperor of the Emperor will be welcomed with great success."

Obviously, Emperor Wanli didn't want to continue this heavy topic and wanted to jump quickly.

Zhu Yiliu said: "I, of course, I also hope to develop my career with all my heart, but what about you, brother? And my mother? Are you willing to be scolded? Do you have the heart to watch your mother knocking on Muyu day and night and cry? In less than a year, my mother has lost weight and has become so much haggard."

Empress Dowager Li's tears flowed down, but she neither made a sound nor raised her hand to wipe it, as if she was afraid of interrupting Zhu Yili's thoughts.

Emperor Wanli raised his hand angrily and almost shouted: "Brother, don't say anything more."

Zhu Yili sighed slightly and said nothing.

Emperor Wanli then said strongly: "If the emperor brother wants to talk about the relationship between his brothers and brothers, then the emperor brother warmly welcomes him; but if the emperor brother insists on saying something irrelevant and unpleasant, then please let the emperor brother do whatever he wants, and the emperor brother will not accompany him."

Before Zhu Yiliu could answer.

Empress Dowager Li spoke first, and she felt helpless: "Jun'er, what words are your brother's inconsistency? It's good for good faith to do it. Why can't Jun'er calm down and think about it carefully? Why don't you summon the ministers to discuss the matter with a broad mind?"

Emperor Wanli said, "Mom, why didn't the child calm down? On the contrary, I have been thinking about it for many years."

Empress Li was stunned: "So, Jun'er had long been looking forward to Mr. Zhang's death, so..."

"Where did I want to go? Is this your biological son? It's okay if you protect your younger brother, but you're still turning your elbow out at this time."

"You..." Empress Dowager Li's face turned pale. If she hadn't been thinking about the safety of her child Zhu Yili, she would have thought of getting up and leaving, without seeing her.

Zhu Yili also understood that Emperor Wanli was not only a sensitive and suspicious person, but also a stubborn and even self-righteous person.

It seems that the same as expected, persuasion will not work at all.

When dealing with Zhang Juzheng, Emperor Wanli's heart was already as hard as steel, and his attitude would not change at all because of anyone's persuasion.

But Zhu Yiliu still decided to follow his original intention and finish what he wanted to say.

"Brother, even if you don't care about the world's comments, your treatment of Mr. Zhang and the ministers he relied on during his lifetime is equivalent to stifling Mr. Zhang's reforms. So, in which direction will the country develop in the future? Have you ever thought about it?"

"The emperor brother has never thought about it. Could it be that the emperor brother has figured it out?" Emperor Wanli asked back.

This made Zhu Yili shudder.

I thought to myself that I naturally thought about it, but I couldn’t say it out! Otherwise, wouldn’t that be seeking death?

Zhu Yili bypassed this question and said, "So, will the emperor's heart change?"

"I have issued an order. The team that searched the house is almost Jiangling City at this time. What's the use of the emperor's brother going to say this? I hope the emperor will end this matter, and I don't want to listen to it anymore."

Usually, Emperor Wanli rarely calls himself "I" in front of his family, but today he opens his mouth and keeps talking to him to highlight his lofty status.

This is understandable. The emperor should have called himself that. But to Zhu Yiliu, it means that persuasion can be terminated. If you continue, it will only increase contradictions and conflicts and will not work at all.

But then again, fortunately, Zhu Yiliu did not have much hope.

It’s a pity that this makes Empress Dowager Li even more sad and desperate.

Faced with the strength and determination of Emperor Wanli, Zhu Yili had no choice but to do anything at this moment.

I think I can't threaten Emperor Wanli, right? If you do this, be careful to rebel against you.

Zhu Yiliu could only say regretfully: "Okay, since the emperor's intention is decided, the emperor's brother has nothing to say. I sincerely hope that the emperor will not make the ministers sad next, and hope that under the leadership of the emperor, the country can achieve more comprehensive and long-term development than when Mr. Zhang was alive."

After saying that, Zhu Yiliu slowly stood up.

Empress Dowager Li then stood up, and tears were still flowing on her cheeks.

"Is the emperor just leaving like this?" Emperor Wanli also stood up.

"Send your mother back to Cining Palace first." Zhu Yiliu said as he held Empress Li's hand.

"When will the emperor brother leave the capital?" Emperor Wanli asked again.

"People with my mother for a few days." Zhu Yili replied, then begging, "But I hope the emperor will not send someone to disturb me, just pretend that the emperor has not come back, okay?"

"Don't you accompany the emperor?"

"The emperor's brother is in charge of power and has many things to do every day, and it is not convenient to get together with the emperor. If the emperor has the will, I would like to ask the emperor to go to my mother's side."

"Okay." Emperor Wanli nodded.

"Oh, by the way, the emperor brother, who was on duty just now, who is Sun Xian, who is on duty?"

"Why did the emperor suddenly ask about this?"

"I was outside just now, because he didn't know me, so I had a little friction."

"Oh, he is a eunuch in the Silijian, responsible for Jiaziku."

"Can you let Eunuch Sun go to Cining Palace?"

"No problem." Emperor Wanli agreed happily.

"Thank you, my brother! Then let me tell you another day, my brother will leave first!" Zhu Yili turned around and left with Empress Dowager Li.

Looking at the backs of the two so close to each other, Emperor Wanli felt an unknown anger in his heart, and his eyes became extremely sharp.

After Zhu Yili and Empress Dowager Li left completely, Emperor Wanli shouted:

"Sun, Xian——"

Sun Xian had already hid at the other end of the East Warehouse, and could not hear the sound of the West Warehouse, but Emperor Wanli still heard the loud shout.

Sun Xian couldn't help but feel excited, just because he had been thinking that the little eunuch just now was Zhu Yiliu, so he was thinking about it in a mess.

Now that he heard Emperor Wanli shouting loudly, he thought he had settled the score with him, so he rushed to the West Warehouse uneasy.

When I went in, I saw Emperor Wanli sitting alone in front of the imperial case with a dark face.
