Zhu Yuanzhang has been weak all his life, and if there is anything he can't let go of in this life.

That's probably just three things.

Daming, Prince Zhu Biao, Queen Ma.

These three things can be said to be the only concern in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

Now when watching Chu Ze say the death date of the crown prince Zhu Biao so conclusively, Zhu Yuanzhang was really a little nervous.

He started from scratch and laid such a brilliant foundation today.

It can be said that it has been brilliant for a lifetime.

However, Zhu Biao is the continuation of his brilliance.

It can be said that everything Zhu Yuanzhang is doing now is paving the way for his son.

However, the road pounced, and suddenly heard that his son had died in the near future!

And he actually walked ahead of his old man.

Three sorrows in life: losing his father in his early years, widowing in middle age, and losing his son in his later years.

It can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang is about to occupy two of the three.

How could he accept this?

So at this time, he looked at Chu Ze, who was standing in front of him, and was still the old god.

Zhu Yuanzhang also threw out all the promises he could think of.

Brocade clothes and food, high-ranking officials and other things, in his eyes, it is not a problem, the only thing that really matters is Zhu Biao's safety.

It's just that he also ignores one point.

"Your Majesty, what kind of high-ranking officials, brocade clothes and jade food, etc., you better save a little... After talking for a long time, you still don't believe that I am from the afterlife, or that it is your death-free iron scroll or something that has been sent out, and you haven't even thought about this problem yourself. ”

"You sent that thing to those heroes, indeed, it looks like it shows your benevolence and righteousness, and lets these old subordinates know that you don't forget the old feelings."

"I gave them such a death-free iron scroll, which is a life-saving thing."

"But in fact, there is only one life, so it will be extraordinarily precious, you have sent a death-free iron scroll, which is equivalent to everyone thinking that they have two lives, and some things, the natural sense of fear will also decrease."

"They are unscrupulous in their actions, and they become extremely arrogant one by one."

"I come from the afterlife, I know everything that happens later, and your death-free iron scroll is completely a life talisman. Those who almost received the iron rolls basically lost their lives. ”

"If you give me ten cards this time, then how fast and miserable I will die!"

“....”

As a latecomer, Chu Ze naturally knew the promises made in Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth, and none of them were valuable.

It can be said that the biggest advantage of this self-made emperor is that he has both good face and bad face.

What he said on the front foot, the back foot can be regarded as a fart.

The promise given to you today is the reason to kill you tomorrow.

This is Emperor Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang...

An iron-blooded, and ruthless emperor.

Chu Ze, who knows all this, can be said to have already looked down on everything.

It's like when he first crossed over and knew his identity.

Although he is just a small master book of nine products.

But Chu Ze did not have the slightest doubt about the fact that he would die.

In the Hongwu Four Major Cases, the interrogation method of Zhu Yuanzhang's Jinyiwei was extremely simple and rude.

Catch a suspicious person and put him in prison, and then go to torture him, all kinds of fancy criminal laws, and use them directly for you.

Then they forced confessions from their accomplices.

And the way they forced the Communists was quite strange.

Just ask you directly, who are your accomplices? If you can't say it, then you will continue to be punished.

Until you know the name of the person that comes out of your mouth.

And many people who were arrested and put in prison were actually innocent at all, but under the punishment, in order to suffer less flesh and skin, they had no choice but to talk nonsense.

Like someone who borrowed his money, met him, heard the name...

It doesn't matter if he is a member of the same party or not, as long as he knows him, he will confess, as long as you confess enough, you will naturally not have to suffer from flesh and skin.

All, as long as you are an official in the court, once the four major cases break out, there is a 90% probability that the calf will be finished!

This is also the reason why Chu Ze knew that when he actually became a courtier under Emperor Hongwu, he would directly want to cut himself.

As for resigning and running away, that's basically looking for death.

"Your Majesty, in fact, you don't have to worry too much, since I told you in advance, the crown prince Zhu Biao went to Jinan to inspect and died of illness when he came back."

"Then you know about this now, if you don't let him go in the future, there shouldn't be a big problem."

"As for what kind of disease the prince has, it's hard to say specifically, the record says that it is wind and cold. So look at the prevention for yourself. I don't know how to heal, so I can't help it. ”

"Anyway, do your best, just listen to the destiny of heaven."

"Your Majesty, is there anything else you want to ask?"

After Chu Ze's words were finished, Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned.

Of course, the reason why he frowned was not because Chu Ze was helpless about the question that the crown prince Zhu Biao would die in the future.

Rather, it is because he mentioned the issue of the iron roll of avoiding death.

The iron scroll to avoid death is equivalent to giving those heroes an extra life, but as Chu Ze said, there is only one life, and all of them are precious, so that those ministers know that they are afraid.

If you have scruples, you will restrain your behavior.

And after this extra life, it seems...

Zhu Yuanzhang only thought about it a little in his mind, and he basically believed what Chu Ze said just now.

Anyone who has a death-free iron roll in his hand will basically lose his life.

He doesn't doubt that anymore.

And with the gradual deepening of the exchange, Zhu Yuanzhang also became more and more convinced that the young man in front of him was really a person from the next generation.

Otherwise, how could a person who couldn't understand a single word see these hidden dangers so clearly?

And Chu Ze's pessimistic attitude towards life and bent on death is obviously not pretended.

"Okay, since you've said so, we'll follow you! I won't send you a dead iron roll or something. ”

"However, let's tell you one thing very clearly now, we won't let you die, at least for now, we won't let you die, we still have to let you live well, live and nourish."

"What you told me is that Hongwu died of illness in the twenty-fifth year of his life... Let's leave you to Hongwu for twenty-five years! Before that, did you give us a good time? ”

“...”

When he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Chu Ze, who was going to go down to take poison or drink drugs, and then end his sad journey, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang on the throne a little strangely.

Then he asked.

"Your Majesty, do you want to say that if you leave me in Hongwu for twenty-five years, if the crown prince is killed, let me be buried with you... Or, the prince has lived past the twenty-five years of Hongwu, and then take me to sacrifice to the sky or something! ”

"We have our arrangement, and you can give us a good life before then."
