Chapter Seventy-Six: Does His Highness Want to Kill King Tan?

After three days and three nights in the palace, Li Jie was finally able to go home, and Mrs. Li was very distressed when she saw his tired appearance, so she immediately boiled water to let Li Jie take a bath, and made a hearty dinner, but Li Jie couldn't stand it after eating half of it, and when he returned to the room, he covered his head and slept with his head covered, and when he woke up the next day, it was already dusk, and he slept almost for a day and a night.

After waking up, Li Jie felt refreshed, I have to say that the recovery of young people is good, no matter how tired they are, they will recover completely after a good night's sleep, unlike after the age of thirty, they can't adjust if they stay up all night for several days.

I definitely won't be able to go to the palace to be on duty today, and it is estimated that Zhu Yunxi doesn't have the energy to go out today, and he has worked for Zhu Biao for so long, and it makes sense to take a day off, so Li Jie spent the rest of the time chatting with his mother.

Now the family's economic situation is improving, mainly because Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded a lot of property and land before, so Mrs. Li wants to buy another house, after all, this house is too small, and there is no place for servants to live if she wants to recruit a few servants.

Li Jie didn't have any thoughts about these things at all, after all, his energy was focused on marrying a princess, so Mrs. Li and Aunt Zhao were in charge of the family's affairs.

In addition, Li Jie also took Di'er to the street to buy a lot of food before the curfew, this girl has not seen Li Jie for a few days, and she almost wants to kill him, to be precise, she wants Li Jie to buy her food, because Aunt Zhao has begun to control her snacks, lest she skip meals, and only Li Jie will secretly take her to buy snacks to satisfy her hunger.

Of course, Li Jie knows that it is not a good thing for children to eat too many snacks, but as children, it is their nature to like snacks, and it is impossible for them to not eat at all, after all, in the matter of controlling diet, even many adults can't do it, otherwise there will not be so many people in the future who call to lose weight every day, but the more they lose weight, the fatter they get, so it's nothing to let Di'er indulge once in a while.

After resting at home for a day, Li Jie came to the palace the next day, and before he could enter the main hall, he was stopped by the attendants sent by Zhu Biao again, and then took him to Wenhua Hall to see Zhu Biao.

Li Jiemai stepped into the main hall and found that it had been restored to its original state, all the accumulated account books had been moved, and the officials who were busy before were gone, and the entire hall suddenly seemed to be much empty, and Zhu Biao also sat on the hall with a smile on his face, looking in a good mood.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Li Jie immediately stepped forward and saluted.

"No need to be polite, Li Jie, you have helped me a lot this time!" Zhu Biao also stood up at this time and smiled.

"Your Highness is polite, these are what ministers should do!" Li Jie also said modestly again, but he was also complaining in his heart, he didn't expect that Zhu Biao, who looked honest and generous, would also calculate people, it seems that none of these people in the court are fuel-efficient lamps.

Seeing Li Jie so modest, Zhu Biao was a little embarrassed, so he took the initiative to explain: "Actually, my father asked me to count the treasury, mainly to drag me down, so that I didn't have time to participate in some things in the court and avoid further conflicts with my father, but because of you and Yunxi, I was asked to complete the task ahead of schedule." ”

"I see!" Li Jie also suddenly realized when he heard Zhu Biao's explanation, he had been thinking about this issue since the day before yesterday, but he couldn't figure it out, but now he finally knows the answer, and Li Jie immediately guessed the conflict between Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao.

"Your Highness is talking about the case of the Metropolitan Governor Yu Xian's father and son?" Li Jie hesitated for a moment before he asked curiously, this matter has long been in the city, so he also wants to know what Zhu Biao's attitude is on this matter?

"Yes, you seem to know that." Zhu Biao also sighed when he heard this, and the smile on his face was also retracted, "My father attaches great importance to this case, and even ordered a strict investigation, but I am worried that it will be implicated too much, so I persuaded my father to only kill Yu's father and son, but my father insisted on refusing, so our father and son also had a big quarrel, and then I was separated by my father." ”

Li Jie secretly pouted when he heard Zhu Biao's words of avoiding the important and light, it was true that he had a big fight, but later Zhu Biao concealed the beating, and he didn't know if he used the method of teaching him to carry the portrait of Queen Ma?

"Your Highness is merciful, I believe Your Majesty should have understood the prince's painstaking efforts, right?" Li Jie asked again, this matter is too important, the entire court wants to know Zhu Yuanzhang's next move, and the answer in Zhu Biao's mouth is obviously the most credible news.

"Alas~, if my father is so persuasive, it would be easy to do!" Unexpectedly, Zhu Biao sighed at this time, and then cheered up and said, "But I'm not completely without gains, after you left yesterday, I persuaded my father for a long time, and finally softened my father's attitude." ”

The reason why Zhu Biao said this to Li Jie was actually to listen to Li Jie's opinion, after all, Li Jie's performance during this period of time had surprised him, especially in some key matters, Li Jie could always make unexpected moves, so he also hoped that Li Jie would help him think of a way, and it was best to make his father change his mind and dispel the idea of restarting Hu Weiyong's case.

Li Jie also guessed Zhu Biao's thoughts, but he secretly smiled bitterly, Zhu Biao is Zhu Yuanzhang's most important son, and even he can't change Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, let alone himself as an outsider.

Of course, these words can't be said explicitly, so Li Jie pondered for a moment before deliberately diverting the topic and said: "Yu Xian's daughter is Princess Tan, this matter involves the royal family, and it is indeed not appropriate to make a big deal!" ”

Hearing Li Jie mention his eighth brother Zhu Zi, Zhu Biao also sighed again and said: "What I said is that my eighth brother was originally timid, this time Yu's father and son case happened, he was already scared out of illness, my father was going to issue an order to reprimand his younger siblings, but fortunately I was persuaded by me, yesterday I persuaded my father to summon the eighth brother and his wife into Beijing, and then I personally appeased them, so as not to let them think wildly!" ”

When Li Jie heard this, he looked at Zhu Biao with a stunned face, and after a while, he said speechlessly: "Does Your Highness want to kill the Tan Wang and his wife?" ”

"What do you mean?" Zhu Biao was also stunned when he heard this, he and his brothers have always had a good relationship, how could he kill his brothers.

"Since His Royal Highness knows that King Tan is timid, and the case of Yu's father and son is full of turmoil in the city, and all kinds of gossip are endless, King Tan must be very frightened, if he suddenly receives His Majesty's holy decree to summon him to Beijing at this time, what will you think if you are the king of Tan as the prince?" Li Jie analyzed speechlessly again.

The reason why Li Jie mentioned Tan King Zhu Zi is that he thought that Zhu Zi, the king of Tan in history, died by self-immolation, and he died quite unjustly, originally his father-in-law Yu Xian committed a crime, Zhu Yuanzhang was worried that this timid son would think too much, so he summoned him to Beijing, but Zhu Zi thought that his father was going to ask himself for sin, so he and his wife Yu self-immolated and died.

Li Jie always thought that this was Zhu Yuanzhang's own mistake, but now he knows that it turned out to be Zhu Biao's idea, with Zhu Biao's character, he will never harm his brother, but when his brother makes a mistake, he will try his best to defend it in front of his father, so this can only be Zhu Biao's unintentional mistake.
