Chapter 7 Prison

"My son, I wish you the best!"

"I'm fine! Get up." Zhu Yuanzhang touched his beard and said.

"Father, the fourth child is idle at home, but..." King Qin stopped talking.

"Say!" Zhu Yuanzhang said without raising his head.

"It's just that the fourth brother went to Jiaofangsi last night and brought back a handyman."

"I understand, please step back."

"Father..." King Qin wanted to say something else, but King Jin tugged his clothes.

After the two people left, Prince Zhu Biao came out from behind.

"Boss, what do you think is wrong with the fourth child?"

"In my opinion, it is reasonable to go to Jiaofangsi. After all, the fourth brother did not do anything extraordinary. As for the handyman he brought, there is no need to make a fuss. The house inevitably lacks a few smart servants.

It won’t be a big deal to bring him into the mansion." The prince said with his hands in hand.

"The fourth brother is yours, and he is quite capable in doing things. The reason why we punished him this time is because we are protecting you. If the minister colludes with the second and third sons, it will be hard for us to talk. This way

It's okay to check on the fourth child and put their minds at ease."

"Father, Holy Ming!"

"Let the fourth child come to see me!"

"yes!"

After a while, King Zhu Di of Yan entered the inner palace in a hurry.

I saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on the rocking chair, closing his eyes and relaxing.

"My son, please see your father!"

"The Fourth Brother is here, sit over here."

Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Di's hand and said: "Di'er, sometimes you have to be a lonely minister. Only in this way can you assist your elder brother. Do you understand my father's painstaking efforts?"

"My son understands."

"Dad knows your grievances. You have followed us in wars since you were a child. At that time, you were still a young boy and couldn't even draw a bow and arrow, hahaha."

Zhu Di quickly knelt down and said, "Dad, I would like to serve you forever."

"Okay, okay, get up and talk. Dad will now resume your position as commander of the Royal Guards. There have been some complaints in the court recently. Dad will deal with them. After a while, dad will let you go."

"yes!"

Jin Yiwei's prison housed important officials involved in major cases that broke out in Hongwu. Everyone who knew that Zhu Di had restored the command of Jin Yiwei was also very happy.

The fourth prince has always loved his subordinates very much, and there is simply no prince below him.

Everyone who heard that he had come to take over the power of the Jin Yiwei came to greet Zhu Di at the door.

"Welcome Your Highness!"

All the royal guards knelt down on the ground with their hands folded.

"Get up! It says inside."

"Your Highness, this seat is yours. The brothers have wiped it for you and are waiting for you to come back."

The person who spoke was none other than Shen Shan, a member of Jinyiwei Baihu.

Wearing a red flying fish suit, with a slanted Luan belt around the waist and an embroidered spring knife on the crotch.

This is also a person who Zhu Di single-handedly promoted among the Jinyi Guards.

"Shen Shan, don't be lazy. How are the interrogations by those officials recently?"

"Go back to your highness, whoever enters here, we will let him die at the third watch, and the King of Hell will not be able to keep him at the fifth watch."

"As long as they were involved with Hu Weiyong, all of them confessed and admitted all the facts of assassinating the king and killing Jia."

"Does the Emperor know about this?" Zhu Di asked.

"Your Highness, this matter is of great importance. I have blocked the news and await your Highness's decision!"

If Shen Shan hadn't been promoted by Zhu Di, how could he dare to claim such great merit? Of course, the fourth prince had to report it to the emperor in person. If he had rashly coveted the merit, his head would have been moved.

"You are an old man, and I have to teach you some rules when I am no longer here." Zhu Di said.

"Thanks to His Highness's great respect, I will do my best in this humble position and do the hard work of dogs and horses."

"Let's go and see him!"

Shen Shan immediately understood and took Zhu Di to the depths of the imperial prison, which was Tianzi No. 1 cell. The person imprisoned in it was none other than Hu Weiyong.

Hu Weiyong's body was covered in bloodstains, his hair was fluffy, and the iron chains on his feet were rattling on his body.

"Hu Weiyong, King Yan is here to see you!"

Hu Weiyong continued to remain silent. The stench in the cell spread out, mixed with the strong smell of blood, as if he was born in hell.

The dirt and blood on the ground were mixed together, and the only person in the cell was Shen Shan's lantern, which illuminated a trace of candlelight in the darkness.

"Hu Weiyong!" Shen Shan shouted again.

"Unchain him!"

"Your Highness, this..."

"What are you afraid of? If anything happens, I will take care of it. Just do whatever you want."

"yes."

Zhu Di stepped into the dark cell and waved to Shen Shan to step back.

Seeing no one around, Zhu Di looked at Hu Weiyong lying on the ground.

"Master Hu, it is not a small crime to assassinate the king and kill the king."

"Humph, I've fallen into your hands anyway, feel free to kill or chop him into pieces!" Hu Weiyong said disdainfully.

"Okay! As expected of a prime minister, he is indeed courageous, but don't you want to miss your family?"

"I, Hu Weiyong, am not a famous official of the generation, but I will definitely go down in history. Since it is the crime of killing the nine tribes, what else should I think about?"

"Master Hu, you said everything, why didn't you say that thing?"

"Which one? I've said everything that needs to be said, isn't it just about beheading?"

"Hahaha, Mr. Hu is such a noble man who forgets things so much. Have you forgotten twenty years ago?"

Hu Weiyong sat up suddenly.

"This... you also know?" Hu Weiyong said tremblingly.

"Of course I know, but now only the two of us know. It's not difficult to prevent the emperor from knowing. You have to follow my instructions honestly."

"Tell me, what are the conditions?"

Zhu Di turned his back and said, "What roles did King Qin and King Jin play?"
