Chapter 31 Zhu Xi angrily scolded Zhu Yuanzhang over wine
"Stop it, stop it! Is your kid going to die?"
Lin Che saw Zhu Xi yelling at the emperor and hurriedly spoke to stop him.
Maybe Zhu Ming didn't know, but Lin Che knew that while they were in class, this prison cell was being monitored at all times.
In fact, every word they said would be transmitted to the emperor's ears verbatim.
This was not his foresight, but what he learned from history books in his previous life.
During the Hongwu period, in order to strengthen his control over the courtiers and people, Zhu Yuanzhang recruited a large number of "eyes" to monitor the officials and people.
It is no exaggeration to say that Jinyiwei, the secret service agency during Zhu Yuanzhang's time, is called the strongest in history.
As Jin Yiwei's predecessor, the Imperial Guard's Mansion, his ability to gather information is naturally not that bad.
What's more, this imperial prison is located next to the pro-military captain's mansion, so how could there be no surveillance?
Although in this life, there are no high technologies such as pinhole cameras and bugs, it should not be difficult to monitor the speech of some prisoners in prison.
The reason why Lin Che openly talked about the bad policies of the Hongwu Dynasty in the prison was that she knew someone was spying on her.
That's because he is already a prisoner waiting to be executed, so if he hears it, he will hear it.
Anyway, it will be a knife sooner or later, maybe it will anger the emperor, and he will be stabbed sooner, and he will return to modern times and enjoy happiness sooner.
It's just that he doesn't want to implicate Zhu Er, the second generation of nobles.
During this period, he had been serving delicious food and drinks, but because of his own 'bewitchment', he and his family were harmed.
Lin Che felt that she couldn't bear it.
"Zhu Er, why are you excited? This is the Emperor's business, and it has nothing to do with you?!"
"This is a prison, be careful not to be overheard!"
"Do you know what the crime of insulting the emperor is and what the consequences are? It means that all nine clans will be implicated and the whole family will be executed!"
"You are stupid. You can only live a good life, but you are waiting to be stabbed! You will also bring trouble to your family."
Lin Che looked at the wine jar smashed on the ground and shook her head repeatedly.
When the boy got excited, the wine jar was smashed. Haha, he didn't even have to drink any wine.
After listening to Lin Che's advice, Zhu Xiang lost his temper. Not only did he not shut up, but he pulled his neck and shouted: "Why did I just scold you? If you do something wrong and you don't let others tell you, how can there be such a thing in the world?!"
"If he can, he'll kill us. I'll just wait here. If I frown, I'm not a man!"
"..."
Lin Che saw that Zhu Xiang was shouting more and more energetically with the help of wine, so she stopped trying to persuade him.
Young people are so impulsive! I think he is a noble second generation who has never suffered a loss since he was a child and does whatever he does regardless of the consequences.
There was just one thing that puzzled him.
This kid shouted so loudly that the entire prison could hear it.
No one came to stop it, it didn’t make sense! Seeing Zhu Xi becoming more and more energetic, Lin Che knew that today's class could not continue.
The secret room next door.
Waves of passionate insults came from the listening urn on the wall.
The atmosphere in the entire secret room was frighteningly depressing.
Zhu Biao sat there stupidly with a brush in his hand, looking at Zhu Yuanzhang. The big beads of sweat on his forehead rolled down his cheeks, and he didn't dare to reach out to wipe them away.
Zhu Yuanzhang stood in front of the listening urn, his face was so gloomy that he could drip water, the veins on his forehead were beating wildly, and his chest was rising and falling.
He was really angry at this unfilial son.
Ever since he became the capital marshal, he had never been insulted like this, not to mention that this man was his own son.
Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and listened for a while, and finally couldn't help shouting: "Unfilial son!"
"I will kill you today!"
……
into the night.
In the Forbidden City, the Qianqing Palace is brightly lit.
Zhu Yuanzhang's extremely angry roar filled the entire palace.
Liu He, the personal eunuch, stood outside the door in fear, shaking the dust in his hand.
The emperor was furious inside and asked the Bodhisattva to protect him from venting his anger on himself.
Liu He was in his 40s. He was originally a eunuch in the Meng Yuan Palace. After the city was broken, he was captured and sent to the Forbidden City in Yingtian to serve the Emperor Meng Yuan, Zhu Yuanzhang hated these eunuchs very much.
Even though Liu He had served the emperor wholeheartedly for several years, he was still frightened when he saw the emperor angry.
Not to mention other eunuchs.
In the hall of Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Xiang lowered his head and knelt in front of the imperial case. He no longer had the intense excitement in the prison in the afternoon.
Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting behind the imperial court, with Queen Ma and Prince Zhu Biao sitting on the left and right.
The three of them stared at Zhu Xi who was kneeling below, and the expressions on their faces were as exciting as they could be.
"Rebel!"
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped the imperial case loudly and roared: "You damn cow! I asked you to join the feudal clan. If you want to go to the Northern Expedition, why should I hide in prison?"
"It's a comfortable stay, isn't it? Good wine and good food are served, there are fresh lychees, and the servants are pressing the stilts."
"Let's forget about this. Who the hell is he scolding in there today?"
"Come on, come on, in front of your mother and your elder brother, scold us again this afternoon. I will let you scold us enough today."
Seeing Zhu Xi kneeling on the ground with his face on the ground, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more angry:
"Don't pretend to be a coward. We know you are a man. Just scold me in front of me, scold me hard, and let out all your grievances against your father!"
Hearing this, Zhu Xiang subconsciously shrank his head.
At this moment, he wanted to die. Lin Che's words had truly come true. Walls have ears.
Under the influence of alcohol, he complained to his father, which immediately reached his ears.
in the afternoon.
After seeing Lin Che off, Zhu Ming was so drunk that he just wanted to lie down on the bed and rest.
In a daze, he was tied up and taken away, tied up and sent directly to the Forbidden City.
I have been kneeling since afternoon.
It was not until dark that Zhu Yuanzhang came with Queen Ma and Prince Zhu Biao.
Then there was a meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots.
Then--
"Swear! Didn't you scold you? Your father didn't dare to chop you, and you continued to scold you. Why did you become mute?"
Seeing that Zhu Xi remained silent, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more furious. He picked up the ruler on the table and went to slap him.
"Father calm down!"
Prince Zhu Biao quickly stepped forward, stood in front of Zhu Yuanzhang who was panting like an ox, knelt down and said: "Father, my second brother is still young, and he drank some wine at noon, so he unintentionally offended his father, but I know that my second brother respects his father more than anyone else."
"Father, if you want to punish me, you should punish my son first. As an elder brother, I do not teach my younger brother well. It is my fault."
Zhu Biao knelt on the ground and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang firmly, and said loudly: "My son has failed to discipline his younger brother. Please punish me, father!"
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was fighting on the front line and had no time to take care of his family.
Queen Ma took Zhu Biao and the others behind to raise the children.
As the eldest son, Zhu Biao took on the responsibility of assisting his mother in taking care of his younger brothers as he grew older.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi are the same mother, and they have always doted on their younger brother Zhu Xi.
When he was a child, Zhu Xiang was naughty and mischievous, which often made Zhu Yuanzhang furious. It was Zhu Biao who interceded for him or even directly took the blame.
"Get off!"
"This is none of your business, and you don't need to plead for him!"
"I've said it before, if you continue to spoil him like this, sooner or later you will get into trouble."
Zhu Yuanzhang was blocked by Zhu Biao kneeling on the ground and said angrily:
"This little brat has been spoiled by you two. If you dare to scold him today, you will dare to scold his mother tomorrow. If he doesn't get cured, he won't be able to dig up the ancestral graves of our old Zhu family."
"Go away!"
"If you don't get out of here, I'll whip you too!"
The more Zhu Yuanzhang talked, the angrier he became. He watched Zhu Biao kneeling there motionless, raising the ruler in his hand high.
