Ming Dynasty: I risked my life to teach the prince, the emperor begged me not to die

Chapter 55: Ghost and Charm
After leaving Huaihua Hutong, Zhu Houzhao was in a good mood and said to Liu Jin, "Go and tell Li Zhen, the co-governor of the Jinyiwei of the Northern Pacification Division, that from now on, if anyone wants to call Chen Ce, go find him and let him meet him in person!"

I rely on!

Isn't this too big? Besides, you are a prince. Although the Jinyiwei will give you this face, that consumptive man is not worthy of it!

I feel jealous and envious at the same time... Fortunately, he is not a eunuch, otherwise how can I keep my position? I must not let that consumptive ghost castrate himself, how can he enter the palace?
Liu Jin smiled flatteringly and said, "Yeah, that's good."

……

Forbidden City.

The lights in the Hall of Mental Cultivation were still on, and the Minister of Justice Bai Ang stood respectfully in the hall listening to the holy words.

Emperor Hongzhi looked unhappy, and he took the initiative to speak up for the two uncles of the Zhang family, saying that the son of a chancellor of Shuntian Prefecture was so arrogant and lawless that he dared to beat the two uncles of the emperor.

The two uncles-in-law of the Zhang family have been beaten and are still unconscious. The queen is furious in the harem. It seems that it is unknown whether the two uncles-in-law of the Zhang family can wake up.

Hearing that such a serious criminal case had occurred in Shuntian Prefecture, the Minister of Justice also looked like he had a headache.

Emperor Hongzhi naturally had his own considerations when he said this. He didn't want the civil officials to make a big deal out of this matter, so he could only put the Ministry of Justice on the spot and let it clean up the mess for the two uncles of the Zhang family.

Otherwise, the death of a civil servant's son would be very troublesome, and if the matter continued endlessly, it would turn into a huge conflict.

The Ministry of Justice already understood the whole story, and the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture reported it to the Ministry of Justice as soon as possible, but his son was dead, and all the witnesses were dead too. The only witness left was the commoner in Huaihua Hutong.

Before the Ministry of Justice planned to question the other party, he was summoned by Emperor Hongzhi overnight.

He immediately figured out what Emperor Hongzhi meant. There was no need to investigate further because Emperor Hongzhi had already defined the matter.

It was the other party's fault, and then the two uncles-in-law killed people in self-defense. The other party beat the uncles-in-law unconscious, so the Shuntian Prefecture Prime Minister would also be charged with the crime of failing to educate his children.

The Ministry of Justice probably already knew how to deal with this incident. The Shuntian Prefecture Prime Minister would be exiled, and even if Lin Mianzhi died, his achievements would be revoked.

Minister Bai bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will go and do my job right away."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded deeply and waved his hand, saying, "Go."

"My minister retire."

Emperor Hongzhi rubbed his forehead and looked very exhausted.

Huai En came over quietly and said softly, "Your Majesty, Mou Bin is here."

Emperor Hongzhi regained his spirits and waved his hand, saying, "Let him come in and answer the question."

"Here."

After a while, Jinyiwei Commander Mou Bin entered the Yangxin Palace, clasped his fists and bowed to Emperor Hongzhi, saying, "Your humble servant greets His Majesty."

Emperor Hongzhi waved his sleeves casually and said, "Get up."

"Talk about it."

Emperor Hongzhi held the tea and drank it quietly, while Mou Bin was reporting the situation seriously below.

Emperor Hongzhi listened carelessly. He didn't know why Mou Bin wanted to talk about the conflict between a disaster victim and Lin Mianzhi. He said impatiently, "Speak to the point!"

Mou Bin was stunned for a moment, but still said with a brave face: "Your Majesty, I dare to say that this... is the key point."

Ok?
Emperor Hongzhi stopped talking and continued to listen to Mou Bin's report.

After hearing that Chen Ce had gone to the snow outside the city to wait for three or four days in a row, Emperor Hongzhi still didn't know why the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard always talked about a commoner.

It was not until he heard Mou Bin say that Chen Ce stopped the two uncles-in-law of the emperor that the two uncles-in-law reported the improvement of the farming rack to him, the emperor.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi's eyes suddenly widened with a look of disbelief.

Is it the farming frame improved by the common people?

Just give it to the Zhang brothers for nothing?

Emperor Hongzhi suppressed his inner curiosity and continued to listen to Mou Bin's report.

After Mou Bin said that Lin Mianzhi sent people to beat and kill a tenant farmer in Kuihua Township, Emperor Hongzhi looked a little gloomy. When he heard Mou Bin say that Lin Mianzhi ordered people to kill the old woman and the two children who were making fun of him at the time, Emperor Hongzhi finally couldn't bear it anymore. He became furious, his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were cold, as if he wanted to kill someone.

Then the Zhang brothers appeared in Chen Ce's courtyard, and then Lin Mianzhi died, and all the ruffians that Lin Mianzhi had found died. As for who killed Lin Mianzhi, the Jinyiwei didn't know, and Mou Bin just told Emperor Hongzhi everything he had found out.

Don't mix in any of your own guesses or ideas, just say as much as you find out.

After hearing all this, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but gasp.

What if, what if, all of this was a plot set up by that disaster victim... What if he had already started planning for the aftermath from the day the conflict occurred?

Then, how terrifying is this thoughtful little man? !

After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but shudder. Be bolder... It wasn't the Zhang brothers who killed the man? Who was it?
An ant trying to shake a tree? And he really succeeded?

This in itself is shocking enough! After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi's hand holding the teacup just floated in the air until the porcelain broke with a click, which brought him back to reality.

I still feel a little cold all over!

"What time is it?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Huai En who was trembling with fear.

Huai En quickly said, "Your Majesty, it's just past midnight."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said to Mou Bin: "Make arrangements. I will go out of the palace tomorrow in casual clothes. I want to see him."

Mou Bin was slightly stunned, and said hurriedly: "As you wish."

Emperor Hongzhi warned: "Don't disturb him, understand?"

"According to the order!"

After Mou Bin left, Emperor Hongzhi also put down the pen he had been holding in his hand, stood up and left the Hall of Mental Cultivation with his hands behind his back.

There were four eye-catching words written on the white paper on the dragon table: ghost and spirit.

……

After Emperor Hongzhi returned to the harem, he was still worried about his two uncles from the Zhang family.

Although the farming rack was not invented by them, they were thoughtful enough to do so. Emperor Hongzhi could not bear to see it being beaten like this in vain.

Just as I arrived in front of the side hall of the two brothers, I heard the sound of the two brothers slurping noodles.

"Brother, I'm so hungry."

"The Emperor won't give us anything to eat."

"Don't talk nonsense. The emperor will reward us. With tens of thousands of taels of silver, what can't we eat?"

Emperor Hongzhi's face twitched violently. These two bastards, it's a pity that I still worry about them.

His footsteps made a noise, and the two brothers were so scared that they pissed their pants. They crawled into the bed and stuffed the noodle soup and the bowl into the bed.

Emperor Hongzhi walked in and found the two brothers lying on the bed in "pain", with oil on their mouths.

He snorted and walked away.

The Zhang brothers patted their chests and confirmed that Emperor Hongzhi had left, then they secretly sighed that it was a close call.

Then the two brothers quickly threw the finished dishes under the bed, but they heard footsteps outside again, and the two brothers had to lie back in bed.

Zhu Houzhao came. After all, he was his biological uncle. He felt a little embarrassed for sneaking out at night, so he pretended to cover his two uncles with a quilt.

Why do my hands feel a little wet?

He lifted the quilt and was horrified. He yelled, "Mother! Queen Mother! Uncle wet the bed. The situation may be serious! Go and get the imperial physician!"

Zhang brothers: "..."
