Wuying Palace.

Listening to the emperor's questioning, Sun Laohan hurriedly explained:

"It's the county's rice master, sympathetic to Xiao Lao'er's plight, under the pretext that he has a confession and no drawing, he sent Xiao Lao'er to the yamen, and secretly told Xiao Lao'er that someone was secretly staring at me and wanted to kill me, so I quickly came to Nanjing to sue the emperor. He said that I wanted to avenge my family, and this was the only chance. ”

"How did you get to the capital?" The prince asked.

"He asked me to take a boat to Yangzhou first, and then cross the river from Jiangbei to Nanjing, saying that in this way I would not be overtaken." Sun Laohan said: "I came to the capital like this......"

The prince said that there are still many thrilling battles of wits and courage in this, but Sun Laohan may also be kept in the dark.

Just when he asked him where he lived after entering Beijing and who he had seen, he heard his father say in a sullen voice: "Boss, you are focusing on the wrong point!" ”

"Yes, Father." The prince knew the meaning of the song when he heard it, in fact, he also knew that Hu Weiyong and his son should be summoned now.

But as Prime Minister Hu's number one political enemy, he just played a bad move. He had to ask that, otherwise his father would think he was behind him.

Seeing that he was too worried, he didn't ask at first, coughed, and was about to order to bring that Hu Tianci.

I went to listen to the report that Gonggong Wu came in outside: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Hu Cheng tied up Gongzi Hu and pleaded guilty outside the palace. ”

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a moving expression: "It is worthy of being the prime minister of Hu Cheng who dominates the world, and he is well-informed enough." ”

"......" the prince only smiled bitterly.

"Let them in." Zhu Yuanzhang commanded in a deep voice, and then said softly to the old man: "Sit aside and watch us avenge you." ”

"Oops." Sun Laohan wiped his tears and got up, and a small firefighter moved a brocade pier for him. He didn't know how much of a gift it was, so he sat down without thanking him.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care at all, and stared at Hu Weiyong's father and son who walked up to the hall.

I saw Hu Xiang dressed in cloth, holding a rope in his hand, and at the other end of the rope, Hu Tianci was tied with five flowers. Hu Gongzi's eyes were red and swollen, obviously crying. There are also two clear slap marks on the face.

As soon as he entered the hall, Hu Weiyong pulled the rope, dragged his baby son to his feet, and shouted: "Kneel!" ”

Hu Tianci hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Hu Weiyong also knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, the old minister has turned himself in with his son......

"Hu Xiang's movements are fast enough." Zhu Yuanzhang said expressionlessly: "We haven't had time to send Ti to ride to the Lingfu to get people, you sent your son first." ”

"Back to the emperor." Hu Weiyong said: "The criminal minister just left the palace today, and as soon as he returned home, he heard the evil deeds done by the evil son in Liuhe County, and the criminal minister was heartbroken, and he was burned in all ......."

Before he finished speaking, Hu Weiyong choked and sobbed.

"What are you crying about?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked coldly: "Are you reluctant to give up your son?" ”

"No, it is ashamed and sad to be a minister, as a teacher of hundreds of officials, he did not set an example...... I can't even teach my son well, I don't deserve to be this prime minister...... It's all because I'm usually too busy and neglectful to discipline, and I dot on me in every way, so that the wicked son is spoiled by those evil boys......"

Hu Weiyong couldn't cry like never before, and his speech was reversed, which showed that he was really burned.

Zhu Yuanzhang originally wanted to say that you are indeed guilty of teaching such a wicked obstacle. But suddenly thought of his own seventh. Then he sighed and said:

"You don't have to look for reasons from others. That's not a pass, the most important thing is that the little beast is born a bad seed! ”

"Yes, what the emperor said." Hu Weiyong's heart was relieved, he could hear that the emperor didn't plan to even braise himself. But at the same time, he felt a pain, he knew that the emperor would not let go of his son.

"So you don't have to do it with the emperor, you kid him up for the ministers. Please ask the emperor to punish him severely, and let the children of the powerful people in the world see that relying on the protection of their fathers to do nonsense will not work in the Ming Dynasty! Hu Weiyong hardened his heart:

"If you can really kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, it will be the only good thing this little beast has done in this life!"

As he spoke, he took off the hat on his head again, revealing the sparse vegetation on the top of his head and said: "If you don't raise it, your father's fault, and it is difficult to escape the blame for being a minister, please punish the emperor severely and correct the law and discipline!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Hu Weiyong playfully, and then asked faintly for a while:

"Hu Weiyong, why is your mouth crooked."

"Go back to the emperor and make the son angry." Hu Weiyong sighed and said: "The left side of the body is still a little numb, it should be a stroke." ”

"Alas......" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed when he heard this:

"To tell you the truth, if Sun Laohan hadn't beaten the drum, would you send your son here?"

"Back to the emperor, yes!" Hu Weiyong said without hesitation: "First, as a minister, the old minister cannot bend the law for personal gain. There is still some awareness of this. Second, Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, and in front of the emperor, any struggle is futile. ”

"Speaking of which, the emperor may not believe it, the criminal minister has really let people tie him up, but I didn't expect someone to beat the Dengwen drum first." Hu Weiyong couldn't help but cry again:

"Alas, what do you say the criminals are doing with all this uselessness?"

"It's useless, it's useful." Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "Let us not be too disappointed with our prime minister and our own courtiers." ”

As he spoke, he sighed again, pointed to Sun Laohan who was sitting on the side, and said, "This is the old man who was ruined by your son, how do you say you should apologize?" ”

"I can't say anything about the old apologies." Hu Weiyong turned around and kowtowed to Sun Laohan, and said bitterly: "Let the son of a son use his dog life to pay for the life of the whole family." ”

"Daddy!" Hu Tianci was originally a square person. In fact, according to his uncle's original meaning, let him go back to his hometown to hide first.

But he was scared, thinking that his father could protect him. I had to go back to Beijing with me. I didn't expect the old thing to come to kill his relatives in order to protect himself. He scolded his father for being inferior to a beast, and ate two big bidous......

Then he was stunned, and he didn't listen to what his father said.

But he listened to it.

He also knows the phrase 'there is no joke in front of the king'.

The two became one, and he realized that he might be getting cold. Only then did he wake up like a dream and called: "Do you want to make the old Hu family extinct?!" ”

"Never last!" Hu Weiyong's hands were trembling, and he hardened his heart: "I can't let you do evil and ruin the reputation of the court!" ”

"That's right." Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly: "Hu Tianci, have you ever thought that you will make the Sun family extinct?" ”

"This ......" Hu Tianci was stunned for a moment, and then quickly kowtowed like pounding garlic, crying and begging for forgiveness.

"You shouldn't ask us for forgiveness," Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly.

Hu Tianci hurriedly kowtowed to Sun Laohan again, and Sun Laohan didn't look over his head and didn't even look at him.

"We're only responsible for sending you." But I heard the emperor say quietly: "Return to the west." ”
