In the second half of the journey, the prince's chariot was not so joyful.

Because the prince asked about the life experience of his five younger brothers in Fengyang, they inevitably had to talk about the tragedies they had seen and heard......

"Lao Wu and I have traveled all over Linhuai County, and every family has serious hidden fields, and the number of acres of fields registered with the household is 108,000 miles away."

"The people who were emigrated were so miserable, they were knocked out by the Xungui family and the locals, and their families were ruined. Dare to go to Beijing to file a complaint? They will be intercepted and killed by people posing as Japanese robbers, and then the heads will be sent to their homes to make an example. ”

"All those who dare to resist are charged with banditry, the men are sent to Xiuzhong to die, the women are sent to the sect division, and they are distributed to the nobles and nobles as slaves, and the family is ruined, and life is better than death......"

"My second brother and I have seen with our own eyes that the entire Zhongdu City is a hell on earth, with dead people everywhere, hungry and tired living people, and those fierce overseers, tortured and withered."

"Uh-huh." The second brother nodded.

"We also saw with our own eyes that just because a project was not up to standard, the whole team of people was beaten up violently, and then dragged to the street to be executed!" Speaking of that experience, Zhu Di still has palpitations and said:

"And my second brother and I were arrested on the charge of being a spy just because we were taller, but Fengyang Mansion didn't interrogate us at all, and we were sent to ......the construction site to work as coolies the next day."

"Yes, it's true." Zhu Fan nodded vigorously.

Zhu Biao listened to his younger brothers tell the story halfway, and his expression became more and more solemn. He trusted his brothers unconditionally, so he did not doubt the veracity of their accounts.

And only in this way can the strange behavior of the Marquis of Zhongshan be explained! and the anomalies he saw after he came to Zhongdu, and he can figure out the reasons......

"When I accompanied my father to inspect the capital, what I saw was that everything was clean, the construction site was well organized, the officials in charge spoke kindly, and the craftsmen were in a stable mood and did not complain."

"The eldest brother has read history books, and when did he see the great work of the imperial court, whether it was repairing the emperor's mausoleum or building a palace, which time was not a history of blood and tears of the people?" Zhu laughed and said:

"How did the Yuan Dynasty die? Isn't it because the people who repaired the Yellow River were mistreated miserably, so they were exposed? Do you think what you see is normal? Why am I an exception?! ”

"It's not normal." Zhu Biao exhaled and said, "But everyone wants their country to be an exception." ”

"It seems that there are no exceptions." Speaking of his self-deprecating smile, he smiled and said, "I now know why I always feel awkward when I see those scenes." It's all an illusion woven of lies and deception, and of course it looks awkward. ”

"Big brother, what should we do then?" The younger brothers looked at him in unison.

"Of course we have to take care of it, we don't care who cares?" The prince's eyes were soft and firm:

"But this matter is too big, we will report to our father together when we arrive, and listen to his old man's meaning first-believe me, and believe in my father, there is no one in this world who is more jealous and hateful than his old man!"

Although Zhu Biao always slandered his father for his lack of fatherly love for his younger brothers, he still tried his best to maintain his father's image in front of his younger brothers.

"Okay, let's listen to big brother." The younger brothers nodded and said no more.

It can be seen that they are much more sensible now.

~~

The honor guard arrived at Xingfu Palace, and the six brothers got off the bus first, waiting for their father to get off next to the imperial chariot.

Zhu Zhen was too lazy to stand up for the rules, he admired the dragon robe on his body. It's still the most worthy of this king!

Suddenly, the fifth brother on the side stabbed him, Zhu Zhen followed his gaze, and saw Han Yike of Linhuai Zhi County, looking outside the cordon with Zhang Hu.

Seeing Zhu Zhen looking over, Han Yike hurriedly waved his hand.

Seeing that the King of Chu was indifferent, he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and suddenly took out a brush from the page of his boots, moistened it with his tongue, and wrote a few strokes on Zhang Hu's back!

Then let Zhang Hu take off his coat and hold it high, and a big word 'danger' came into everyone's eyes.

Fortunately, Han Yike was wearing the official robe of the seven-rank official, and he had shown a lot of faces in the past few days, and he knew that he was attached to Guo Zhixian, and no one dared to knock him down......

Zhu Zhen reported to the eldest brother at this time, Zhu Biao nodded, and ordered the guards to bring the two over.

"What's the matter? Someone is going to wreak havoc again? Zhu Di was full of fists, he hated to miss last night's battle of berm.

"No, it was Shen Liuniang who sued the emperor and was arrested!" Han Yike said in a deep voice.

"Who?" The second brother was stunned.

"Pan Jinlian." Third Brother Road.

"Oooh. That, that's not possible, that's us, the people of our Hong family's class! The second brother also rolled up his sleeves.

"Do you know where people are?" Zhu Di asked: "Fengyang Mansion or the Ministry of Industry?" ”

"Neither." Han Yike pointed at Zhang Hu. "You say."

Zhang Hu was still a little like falling into a dream, although he had guessed the identities of the five brothers, but he never expected that they were actually five princes......

My mother is here......

"Speak, you!" Zhu Di let out a low snort.

"Uh-oh." Zhang Hu was excited, and immediately came back to his senses and said: "On the day that Liuniang sued the royal court, a few of us were afraid that something would happen to her, so we secretly followed behind. But she was so caught that we didn't dare to move. ”

"Getting to the point!" Zhu Di frowned.

"We kept following behind, and we saw that she was sent to her cousin Li You's house by the son of the Korean father. That's where she got out! Zhang Hu said anxiously: "I dare to sue the emperor, this time I will be arrested, there will be more than one luck!" ”

"Let's go!" The brothers glanced at each other and said in unison. Originally, there was no way, even the dragon had to be coiled. But now the dragon robe is on, buddy, no! One! Shape! Hoo!

"Who would dare to touch our people?" Zhu Di was stunned.

"Gotta get him!" Zhu Zhen pointed his throat, and his milk was fierce.

Saying that, the brothers are about to go out.

"Stop!" But he was stopped by the prince, and Zhu Biao said helplessly: "Even if you are a prince, you can't trespass on the private house if you are unknown?" ”

He first commanded a long-bodied noodle...... That is, a young officer with a big red face. "Lan Yu, order a detachment from the vanguard of your government army to protect the five highnesses."

"Whoa!" Lan Yu was extremely capable, without a word of nonsense, and immediately went out to order troops.

The avant-garde of the government army is the prince's personal guard, and Zhu Biao can be mobilized by himself without asking for orders.

Zhu Biao took off his prince's sword from his waist and said, "Take this, whoever dares to stop it will cut off his dog's head!" I'll ask my father to make up for you when I go back......"

"Hey, okay, thank you, big brother!" The younger brothers took the prince's sword, took Han Yike and Zhang Hu, and went arrogantly.

That's right, it's the one that the prince threw on the top of the bookshelf.

The prince looked at the backs of his younger brothers and was so engrossed that he didn't even pay attention to when his father got out of the car.

"Boss, are you also up to him?" Zhu Yuanzhang clasped his hands and stood side by side with his son.

"The younger brothers have been aggrieved for so long, can you still let them go well?" The prince said in a deep voice: "What's more, it's still a mouthful of injustice in the world!" ”

"Let's not say they shouldn't go," Zhu Yuanzhang said a little depressedly: "Let's say that you should let us send your favor." How good it would be for us to give them the sword of the Son of Heaven, so that the father and son would open the chapter. ”

Zhu Biao pursed his lips when he heard this, looking not very respectful.
