Before meeting Zhu Yuanzhang, Hu Ye thought that Zhu Di was the thickest-skinned person he had ever seen, but now it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang is the thickest-skinned person he has ever seen, which is thicker than the city wall.

It's equivalent to saying anything yourself, and he will be considered to be provoking him, and you can't deny it yet.

There's no way, who let someone else be the emperor, we're just a courtier, and the courtier is angry with the emperor, isn't that a common thing? What's more, it's still this emperor with blood on his hands.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a plan." Hu Ye said helplessly.

Originally, the main purpose of his visit to the palace this time was to tell Zhu Yuanzhang about this, so that he might be able to make a meritorious contribution or something.

But now that I say it, where is there still a meritorious role, it is almost the same as being used to reduce the sentence.

"Oh, let's hear it." Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting precariously, looking down at Hu Ye below, and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, just now Weichen has analyzed the reason for such a big gap in the imperial examination this time, as long as there is a reason, this matter will be much easier." Hu Ye said loudly.

"Getting to the point!"

Zhu Yuanzhang yelled, and then coughed, which frightened Hu Ye.

If this thing had braided at this time, he would definitely have to be dragged to the funeral.

"The emperor is angry, and Weichen will come slowly." Hu Ye hurriedly said, "Since you know the reason, you can take the medicine according to the prescription." ”

"Isn't there a big cultural difference between the scholars of the north and the south? Then the difference between the South and the South should not be big, right? If you let the northern scholars compare with the southern scholars, they will naturally fall below, just like Tian Ji raced horses back then, using his own superior horses to compete with other people's inferior horses, and it is strange not to win. ”

Hu Ye said like a river, and he wanted to talk about it more, but when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's expression as if he was about to explode, he hurriedly said the point.

"So what. We must adapt measures to local conditions, and since we do not allow the north to compare with the south, then let the north compare with the north, and the south with the south, so that there will be no gap. Hu Ye said his solution.

"What kind of bullshit is talking about, come on, pull me down." Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused when he heard it, and he didn't understand what Hu Ye was talking about, so he was angry and wanted to ask the guards to take Hu Ye down.

Hu Ye is complaining. It's all about this, why don't you understand it?

But after thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang was not born at the grassroots level, and his comprehension ability was limited, so Hu Ye had no choice but to say more bluntly, "What Weichen means is that all candidates still participate in the examination together, but the number of tribute students in the examination is divided into two parts: north and south. That is, candidates north of a certain line. Those with good grades can get the quota of tribute students. Candidates south of a certain line will also be given another part of the quota. ”

In this way, not only do you take care of the northern scholars, but you don't need to offend the southern scholars. Because the most reluctant palace test still has to rely on real skills, there is no ink in the stomach, so naturally he can only be an ordinary jinshi. Hu Ye said it more bluntly, for fear that Zhu Yuanzhang would not understand.

If that's the case. Hu Ye only thought that God wanted to kill him, and he was able to create such a stupid Zhu Yuanzhang and make him the emperor. He really didn't have a solution.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened, stroked his beard, and then nodded, feeling that Hu Ye had some sense.

"Well, you're right, I've thought about it before, but I haven't had time to implement it yet." Zhu Yuanzhang looks like he sees himself.

Hu Ye almost vomited out a mouthful of blood, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang's scoundrel again, sure enough, he was born as an emperor from the grassroots, and you deserved to be scolded later.

"There is a way, but we still have to give an explanation to the northern scholars, otherwise I will have no way to discipline them." After Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, he looked at Liu Sanwu again and asked loudly, "Liu Sanwu, do you admit to corruption now?" ”

Hu Ye was stunned for a moment, he said it so clearly, don't you, the emperor, know that Liu Sanwu was wronged?

"Your Majesty, Weichen has been an official in the previous dynasty, but he doesn't know what the greed and perversion of the law are, and he asks the emperor to show it." Liu Sanwu is killed and does not bow his head, no greed is no greed.

Hu Ye squeezed his fist, this old thing is really uninteresting, and he has lived for decades in vain.

Don't you know who Zhu Yuanzhang is? Now Xingshi asks for sin, isn't it just to find a step for himself.

As long as you, Liu Sanwu, confess your guilt and write a confession, so that the northern scholars have an explanation, won't things be much easier? Do you think Zhu Yuanzhang really killed your head?

We can see this little doll, but you old monster in officialdom can't see it?

"Good! Very good! Zhu Yuanzhang was also dizzy by Liu Sanwu, and it is estimated that even if Liu Sanwu is not guilty, he will also put Liu Sanwu in prison.

"Come on, put me in prison and put me in prison!"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared loudly, so frightened that Ruan An hurriedly beat him on the back, he was already in his last years, but nothing happened.

Two guards quickly walked up and escorted Liu Sanwu down.

"The Emperor's ......"

As soon as Hu Ye wanted to speak, he was blocked by Zhu Yuanzhang reaching out.

"If you dare to speak again, you will go to prison with him." Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly.

Hu Ye wisely chose to shut up, and the fool accompanied Liu Sanwu to prison.

"Ha Lu Ha."

Liu Sanwu's hearty laughter came from outside the door, if it weren't for the historical record that Liu Sanwu was not a madman, Hu Ye would have thought that the goods had escaped from a mental hospital, why was his temperament so stubborn?

If he encounters a character like Tang Taizong, maybe Liu Sanwu can become a speech official like Wei Zheng.

But today's emperor is Zhu Yuanzhang, who is a man with blood on his hands, you are so topped, aren't you looking for death?

"Good! Very good! The order went down and Ji Shan and Bai Xin were arrested, but they dared to collaborate with Liu Sanwu, corrupt and pervert the law, and the crime was unforgivable, and they were immediately sent to prison and awaiting trial on a later date. After the list of all candidates is handed in, all those who do not have the names of northern scholars in them will be deprived of their fame and exiled to the border! Dare to have a whistleblower! Same offense! Dare to have a supplicator! Same offense! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was very annoyed, this seemed to be the most annoyed he had since the Lan Yu case.

Ruan An kept beating Zhu Yuanzhang's back, and reassured Zhu Yuanzhang vigorously, he must be angry.

The corners of Hu Ye's mouth twitched, this tyrant is really a tyrant, just because Liu Sanwu laughed after he left, and the other two examiners were also imprisoned.

This is not enough, all the candidates can't escape, deprived of their fame, exiled to the border, this punishment is too severe, right? It seems that the Zhu Yuanzhang recorded in history, except for being cheeky, is exactly the same as the Zhu Yuanzhang that Hu Ye saw.

This strengthened Hu Ye's determination not to enter the palace again, and he was so worried about this day, he really didn't know how Ruan An survived.

"I'm angry! I'm angry! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang roared angrily while covering his heart.

"Your Majesty, you are angry, Lord Liu has such a temper, why should you be like him." Ruan An beat his back while persuading Zhu Yuanzhang.

"The Emperor's ......"

Hu Ye just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang again.

"Don't intercede with them, or you will be punished with the same crime!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said categorically, it seems that Old Man Liu really angered Zhu Yuanzhang this time.

However, Hu Ye didn't intercede for Liu Sanwu, he wanted to leave this wolf's den as soon as possible, maybe he said something wrong, and then he was put in prison by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, Weichen wants to say that if there is nothing wrong, Weichen will go back first." Hu Ye said tremblingly.

He doesn't think about any reward now, the tea is a gift from us, and the plan to divide the north and south lists is also given away for free, as long as you let us leave safely.

But things often do not depend on people's will, and the more Hu Ye wants to leave, the more Zhu Yuanzhang will not let him leave.

"What are you in a hurry, can I still eat you?" Zhu Yuanzhang's anger disappeared a little, and he said to Hu Ye.

Hu Ye originally wanted to say that he was afraid that you would eat me, but he didn't have the courage to say such a thing.

"The emperor misunderstood, Weichen is not in a hurry, not in a hurry." Hu Ye sneered, in fact, his forehead and back were already soaked.

"Little Lizi, go and call Zhang Tianshi to me." Zhu Yuanzhang said suddenly, then looked at the sky outside through the window, and then said, "Forget it, let's go for a trip." ”

After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, and then pointed at Hu Ye, "You, with me, go to Zhang Tianshi's alchemy room to have a look." ”

Hu Ye knew that the immortal dream of this old thing had not yet been extinguished, no, he asked the idea of dividing the north and south, and this thing was going to take himself to visit his immortality plan.

"Wechen obeys."

Hu Ye smiled helplessly, this can't be done.

So, Zhu Yuanzhang took Ruan An and Hu Ye out of Fengtian Hall and got into a carriage.

Zhu Yuanzhang can take the carriage, but Hu Ye doesn't have the guts, so he honestly walks on the ground with Ruan An.

Out of the Fengtian Temple, all the way forward, out of the left gate, and then there was a ninety-degree turn, the carriage gurgling, Hu Ye's heart was also gurgling.

He was thinking about what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by taking him to see Zhang Yuchu? Do you want to throw yourself into the Dan furnace as a medicine primer? This won't work, if he had done this, he would have done it a long time ago, and he wouldn't be alive today.

Do you want to talk to yourself? Or this one is most likely.

"It seems that this old emperor still wants to live forever." Following behind the carriage, Hu Ye muttered.

Out of the left gate, is the Wenlou, after turning left, there is another palace, gilded big characters write "Wenhua Palace".

Although it is not as majestic as the Fengtian Temple, it is still quite majestic under the light of the waning moon.

"Boy, wait outside."

After arriving at the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang got out of the car and asked Xiao Lizi to wait outside, while he took Hu Ye and Ruan An into the Wenhua Palace. (To be continued......)
