Chapter 167: Zheng Mengzhou is dead

Li Jie's boat docked outside the West Water Gate, looking at the familiar Jinling City in front of him, he also sighed with emotion, this walk is several months, and most of the time he is adrift on the water, and sometimes he really misses the life in Jinling City.

At that moment, Li Jie stepped off the boat, Liu Ying and Liu Yi father and son, as well as Zhu Yunxi also came to greet him in person, just like when Li Jie left last time, he still only notified the three of them when he came back, of course, the old Zhu father and son must also know that Zhu Yunxi can go out of the city, which is enough to represent the attitude of their father and son.

"Jie'er, why are you so dark!" Liu Ying also immediately felt distressed when she saw Li Jie's nephew, when Li Jie left, he was white and tender, but in just a few months, the whole person became black and thin, although he looked much more capable, but it was still distressing.

"The sun on the sea is too strong, and tanning is inevitable, how is your Iron Book Army, uncle?" Li Jie replied with a smile, he didn't care much about the changes in his appearance, after all, he didn't rely on his appearance to eat, and he only tanned a little, and it was a big deal to recover after a period of time.

Without waiting for Liu Ying to answer, Liu Yi next to him excitedly preemptively said: "Cousin, your idea is really good, our Iron Book Army all uses firearms, and it is easy to practice, and I have practiced it in front of His Majesty and the Crown Prince before, and I have even been praised by His Majesty personally!" ”

"Happy fart, when will you go to the battlefield and see if you can still laugh?" Liu Ying glared at his son at this time and said, he knew Lao Zhu's character very well, so after receiving Lao Zhu's praise, he had been worried that Lao Zhu would send the Iron Book Army to the battlefield, after all, Liu Yi was also in the Iron Book Army, and he didn't want his son to have an accident.

"Just go, let's go, we have been practicing for so long, isn't it just to go to the battlefield?" Liu Yi was still a little unconvinced, it seems that the army has a great influence on him, if it was a few months ago, he would never have said such a thing.

Liu Ying was also angry when he heard this, and wanted to scold his son for not knowing what to do, but was stopped by Li Jie, and then Li Jie chatted with Zhu Yunxi for a few more words, but the other party told him about the Truth-seeking Academy, which made Li Jie also stunned, but he didn't expect that he had only been away for a few months, and Qin Tianjian would make such a big deal about it.

It's not early, Li Jie still has to enter the palace to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, so the four of them got into the carriage and walked around to chat, Li Jie also talked about his experience in Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom, and Liu Ying and the three of them were also amazed, I didn't expect Li Jie to have such a wonderful life overseas in the past few months.

After the carriage entered the city, Liu Ying and Liu Yi got out of the carriage first, and agreed with Li Jie that he would go to the house for a banquet in the evening, and then their father and son would pick up the wind and wash the dust for Li Jie, Li Jie of course nodded and agreed, and then entered the palace with Zhu Yunxi.

"Li Banyu, the fourth uncle is now in control of Goryeo, and you have initially entered the Wa Kingdom, so in the future, will you continue to use troops against the Wa Kingdom based on Goryeo?" Zhu Yunxi asked very curiously at this time.

"It's possible, but this matter still depends on His Majesty's will." Li Jie replied with a smile.

"I really envy the fourth uncle, he can lead an army to suppress a country alone!" Zhu Yunxi said with envy on his face at this time, as he often went out of the palace, Zhu Yunxi's horizons became more and more broad, and his mind became bigger and bigger, and he was no longer satisfied with the small capital.

"His Royal Highness King Yan is not easy, the current situation in Goryeo is not clear, Li Chenggui is holding the puppet king hostage, and Zheng Mengzhou is restrained inside, if King Yan wants to completely control Goryeo, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort." Li Jie also smiled lightly when he heard this, he understood Zhu Yunxi's thoughts, but with his identity, I am afraid that it is basically impossible to lead troops outside like Zhu Di.

"By the way, did your sister miss me?" Li Jie suddenly asked with a smile at this time.

"How do I know this, you have the opportunity to ask my sister!" Zhu Yunxi was also speechless when he heard this, how could he be embarrassed to ask Zhu Yuning about this kind of thing?

"I must have thought about it, I came back this time and brought a lot of gifts, and when I send them to the palace tomorrow, you will pass them on to your sister on my behalf!" Li Jie smiled again, he didn't know what Zhu Yuning liked, so he picked a lot of gifts, and let her choose them herself.

"Just thinking about my sister, no gift from me?" Zhu Yunxi also shouted with some dissatisfaction when he heard this, his brother-in-law didn't help them cover less, even if he didn't have merit, he had hard work, right?

"How could it not be, I brought you a Japanese sword, it is said to be made by a famous craftsman of the Japanese country, it is very sharp, and it is still a trophy from our attack on Tsushima Island, it is very commemorative!" Li Jie immediately smiled and said, this katana was captured by Zhang Dingbian, and it was said to be the collection of the Ma Zong clan, and he was very interested in Li Jie, so he gave it to him as a thank you.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately grabbed Li Jie's arm and said excitedly: "Where is it, take it out and let me see!" ”

"How could I carry such a long knife with me?" Li Jie was speechless, he brought too many gifts this time, so they were all thrown on the ship, and he still had to enter the palace, so he couldn't bring weapons, right?

"Then you must send it tomorrow!" Zhu Yunxi urged again, he had long been interested in weapons, and he wanted to collect a musket at the beginning, but unfortunately Li Jie didn't give it, and now he can finally collect a Japanese knife.

When the two were talking, the carriage also entered the imperial city, and then stopped in front of the palace gate, the two walked into the palace, and finally came to the Dongnuan Pavilion, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, father and son, were already waiting for them.

"Minister Li Festival see Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Li Jie stepped forward and saluted.

"No need to be polite, you come and see this!" Zhu Yuanzhang said and handed a document to Li Jiedao.

Li Jie stepped forward to take it, and when he opened it and saw the content on it, he was also surprised, this document was sent by Jiang Zhen from Goryeo, not long after Li Jie left the Wa Kingdom, Zheng Mengzhou was suddenly assassinated, and the person who assassinated him was said to be a killer sent by Li Chenggui and his son, which also attracted the excitement of the whole group in Kaesong, and Zhu Di took the opportunity to take over the military power and began to prepare for the conquest of Li Chenggui.

"Your Majesty, is this Zheng Mengzhou's death so strange?" Li Jie hesitated for a moment before he spoke, although Jiang Zhen did not say it clearly in the paperwork, but Li Jie already smelled a hint of conspiracy, and even as early as after Zhu Di conquered Kaicheng, Li Jie decided that Zheng Mengzhou would soon be unlucky, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"What's so strange, it's the hands of the fourth child!" Lao Zhu didn't shy away from it, but Zhu Biao next to him coughed awkwardly, as if he felt that it was inappropriate for his father to tell this kind of conspiracy, but Lao Zhu didn't care at all.

"By the way, what do you think of this Jiang Xuan, I plan to transfer him back to the capital?" Lao Zhu suddenly asked again, which made Li Jie's heart move, Lao Zhu was going to transfer Jiang Zhen back, was he going to prepare to attack Mao Xiang?
