In the end, the villagers of Liujia Village dispersed under Zhang Yifan's persuasion. As for the affairs of the village community, he didn't agree or veto, so he watched it first.

When Zhu San saw it, he thought about quickly teaching Zhang Yifan some etiquette in officialdom. As a result, before he could speak, he was asked by Zhang Yifan first.

After this incident, Zhang Yifan fully realized that it is impossible to live in the countryside and enjoy himself.

What he didn't expect the most was that just the advent of cement products would provoke the forces of this era.

Although Zhang Yifan really doesn't want to be mixed into the officialdom, especially the officialdom during the Hongwu period, he is in response to the sentence, people in the rivers and lakes can't help themselves!

Originally, he thought that by uniting the people of Liujia Village, with the help of Zhu Yuanzhang's severe punishment of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, he could keep himself safe. With Zhu Yuanzhang's personality, he will never tolerate corrupt officials.

However, what happened today told him that the idea was still too naïve.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party felt that he was a country boy and had no knowledge, he showed his face that he wanted to eat cement as soon as he came, but used other means, which is really not something that ordinary people can parry.

For example, a very simple method, as soon as people come, they will assume their official authority, and if you are asked to kneel, you have to kneel; People say that you are involved in a lawsuit and will arrest you directly, what can you do?

When the county government is caught, put in the prison, dragged without interrogation, and let the prison guards in the prison, or simply the prisoners inside, coerce and lure, or even kill themselves, those who are officials will not have any, let alone have the opportunity to beat the drum.

Whether the officials are reasonable or not, it all depends on who the other party is.

has no identity, just a fart person, if he dies, he will be killed, and he will not be able to reach Zhu Yuanzhang at all. Even if the villagers of Liujia Village go to beat the drums afterwards, they are already dead or disabled, and the price is too great!

Thinking about these things, especially Zhang Yifan, he didn't expect that Chang Jingjing, who he thought was originally Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest daughter, was still in love with him.

In the face of such a great opportunity, if you still dodge and watch the person you like finally marry into the family of the first hero of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, then you are not a man!

Based on this idea, Zhang Yifan did not want to be an ostrich in the Hongwu Dynasty anymore, but began to take the initiative to understand the current movements in the court. After catching Zhu San, he asked, just to understand what the current situation is, and then correspond to the history he knows.

In addition, for Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang, we must also have a good understanding and figure it out. Even if it's not for officialdom to deal with, I will soon go to the woman's house to meet my parents, so I can be prepared!

……………………

At the same time, Li You and others were on their way back to Nanjing City, needless to say, demoralized.

Especially those officials, who were drenched in rain in the spring, and went to the countryside and didn't get anything, and maybe they might get sick when they turned around, so they were even more depressed.

"Drive, drive, drive......"

When Zhu Di's cavalry overtook them, it hit them even more. For no reason, in order to curry favor with the Li family, the county order turned out to offend King Yan here, which is really unlucky!

As for Li You, he has been in the carriage, staring at Zhu Di and his party through the cracks in the curtains, especially staring at Zhu Jingjing's back. Seeing her beside Zhu Di, surrounded by a group of guards, there was even more coldness in her eyes.

This trip out, he didn't get anything, and he was embarrassed by King Yan, which made him very unhappy that he had been held.

When he arrived at his house, as soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw that the subordinates he had sent out before were waiting, so he asked in a cold voice, "How is it?" ”

"Sure enough, as the eldest young master expected!" The subordinate immediately approached and said, "That woman went to the East Palace with King Yan. ”

When Li You heard this, he didn't have a trace of joy, and his eyes were full of coldness. After returning to the mansion, he directly found his wife, Hu Weiyong's niece, and immediately asked: "When you entered the palace to ask for a meeting, did you see the eldest princess?" ”

Generally, under major festivals, civil and military officials want to congratulate the emperor, and the wife enters the palace to congratulate the queen. His daughter-in-law happened to have this qualification to enter the palace, so she asked this question.

His wife was a little strange why he suddenly asked this, but she didn't hide it from him, and immediately told him that she had seen it.

So, Li You immediately asked his wife to draw a portrait of the eldest princess. He wanted to confirm whether the identity of the woman was the same as he had guessed.

On the side of the East Palace, Zhu Jingjing didn't expect that Li You was still thinking about her. At this time, she and Zhu Di went to find the crown princess first.

The crown princess was a little surprised, Zhu Jingjing went on a trip and didn't bring Zhang Yifan back, but brought Zhu Di back.

Curious, I found out that there was an accident in Liujia Village.

Sensitive, after knowing that it was Li You, she immediately asked, "Does he know your identity?" ”

She asked Zhu Jingjing, and Zhu Jingjing immediately replied: "Of course I know the seriousness of this matter, and I didn't reveal my identity!" ”

The crown princess was not at ease, so she immediately asked, "What was the situation like at that time?" ”

Zhu Di listened to it and added on the side: "These civil officials have the most thoughts, and you can explain the situation before I arrived." ”

When Zhu Jingjing heard this, she was a little surprised, seeing that they were so solemn, she finally told the details.

She naturally didn't know that the crown princess had estimates from time to time, and felt that her husband's family was most likely the Li family. In this way, Zhu Jingjing ran outside privately, and she happened to be bumped into by someone from the Li family, so she was a little worried.

After listening to what Zhu Jingjing said, Zhu Di also added the situation after he arrived, the crown princess did not find that Zhu Jingjing had revealed her identity, but she was still not at ease, and immediately said to Zhu Di: "You are going to welcome your marriage tomorrow, and I estimate that Jingjing's marriage will be arranged later." There is such an incident today, and I am afraid that Jingjing's matter will be earlier than we imagined. Originally, I planned to talk about your big brother first, but I'm afraid it's too late. ”

When Zhu Jingjing heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and then said resolutely: "Then don't procrastinate, just have a showdown with the eldest brother!" ”

"What? No way! When the crown princess heard this, she immediately shook her head and said, "You only have one chance, so you still have to be cautious!" ”

Zhu Jingjing listened, glanced at Zhu Di and said, "It's okay, I'm sure to say that my eldest brother will help me!" ”

"......" When the crown princess heard this, she was speechless.

She didn't believe Zhu Jingjing's words at all. If that's the case, why did you go there earlier, and instigated yourself to help her?

At this time, I heard footsteps outside.

Seeing Zhu Biao appear outside the door, when he saw a few of them, he smiled and said, "Are you all here?" ”

For his younger siblings, he is still very loving.

As soon as Zhu Jingjing saw it, she immediately greeted her, regardless of the princess's eyes to stop her, and said to Zhu Biao: "Big brother, I'm lost!" ”
