Zhao Zheng was so scared that he kowtowed: "No, Your Highness, it's just..." The legend about Zhu Zhi had long been spreading in the capital, such as rushing over and flying heads, fighting Cao Zhen alone, and Lan Yu forced Duke Liang to death alone. In short, there were countless varied families. Zhu Zhi's image was no different from a murderous demon. Now this demon is getting angry. Fortunately, Zhao Zheng has also been included in the battlefield, otherwise he would be scared to death.

Zhu Zhi was about to continue getting angry, but Qu Neng fell to the ground and said, "Your Highness, Zhao Qianhu is also in charge of official duties, so let his subordinates go with him."

Zhu Zhi took out the memorial and threw it on the table, saying, "This is a book for the emperor. I haven't handed it over the past few days, your name is in it. If I get the Jinyiwei, where will I put my face?"

Qu Neng was a military man, but he still knew the power of the Jinyiwei. At this time, Zhu Zhi wanted to resist the order for him. Qu Neng's gratitude was already a bit like a soldier who died for his confidant, so how could he take the blame for him? Qu Neng almost begged and said, "Your Highness loves you, my subordinates are grateful. He is a hero who is good at doing things. If you have to go this trip, you should not make things difficult for him." He also kowtowed to Zhu Zhi.

Zhu Zhi knew that this kind of obstruction was not a solution, so he said to Qu Neng: "Governor Qu, please come up. Since that's the case, I will accompany you. I want to see what kind of dragon and tiger den of the Jinyiwei Zhaozhu, which is famous in the capital, is like? Zhao Qianhu, is it like kneeling? Let's go!" Zhao Zheng was like a newborn, and stood up tremblingly while saying thanks for his gratitude.

The Jinyiwei Commander's Office is located on Zhuque Street, west of the Imperial City. Two big lions at the door were swaying their teeth and claws. Eight guards on both sides of the gate were arranged in separate positions, and the posture was even more awesome than the Governor's Office of the Five Army. Zhu Zhi arrived in front of the door and saw that Lu Xian and others had been waiting here for a long time. Obviously, someone came back to report the news as soon as he left.

As soon as he got off the horse, Lu Xian and other officials of the Jinyiwei salute quickly. Zhu Zhi had no good feelings for the Jinyiwei and said with a cold face: "Are you Lu Xian?" Lu Xian timidly.

Zhu Zhi said: "General Qu has brought it to you, but I have something to ask you. It was the rebel who put the shit pot on his head."

Lu Xian hurriedly said, "Yes, it's Lan Ni's number one strategist Cheng Shimei..." Everyone went in as they spoke.

When he arrived at the hall, Zhu Zhi sat in the middle, and someone from left to right served tea. Zhu Zhi said, "The so-called words are untrue. Just take someone with a confession. Do you know how much credit General Qu made that night? He guarded the Governor's Office, killed Chen Huan, the Marquis of the Rebel Party, and captured Li Mao, the Governor of the Governor's Office, alive, and did not allow a single transfer of troops to be sent to the hands of the rebels. How could Commander Lu look like the Governor's Party?"

Lu Xian bowed and said, "This...it's just the emperor's order to investigate the matter thoroughly, and this matter dare not be careless. Please understand the difficulties of the matter."

Qu Neng walked over and raised his hands and said, "Right and wrong, merit and demerit are free in the hearts of the people. Please stop talking about it, you can understand it."

Zhu Zhi knew that he could not stop him, so he had to say, "Okay, just stay here honestly. I will go to the palace to find out clearly. Lu Xian, listen to me. Before the palace's orders, if he touched a hair, hehe, let's do it yourself!" As he said that, Zhu Zhi stood up suddenly and walked out strode. He estimated that Lu Xian would not dare to do anything to Qu Nan if he had said this. He quickly walked out and rode into the palace on his horse.

The current imperial palace has become the Jinwu Guard, Jinyi Guard, Yulin Right Guard and Shenji Camp's four divisions each take one battalion every five days. Today, the one guarding the Meridian Gate was the Yulin Right Guard Central Camp. A general held a steel knife and guarded outside the Meridian Gate. It turned out that it was Nanbaro who was guarding the gate that night. This guy seemed to have taken stimulants in the battle to suppress the rebellion that night, and performed well. Zhu Zhi also fulfilled his promise and let him take Li Wan's position. At this time, when Nanbaro saw Zhu Zhi coming, he hurried up to pull the horse and smiled and said, "Your Highness, you are here."

When Zhu Zhi saw that it was him, he said, "I will take office, please give me some energy. Go in and report it quickly, saying that I want to see the emperor." Nanbalang smiled and agreed, and quickly sent someone to report it. After a while, a eunuch came out to announce him.

When Zhu Zhi entered the study, Zhu Yuanzhang was meeting Li Jinglong and Yang Jing. Li Jinglong looked pretty and looked handsome and handsome, but Zhu Zhi was very disdainful of this person's character and virtue. Li Jinglong performed very poorly on the night of the gate. After receiving Zhu Yuanzhang's order to dispatch troops, he came to rescue the five cities with his troops from the military commanders of the Five City Army. The battles in front were almost the same for the two princes, and he was just a part of cleaning the battlefield.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little dissatisfied with his performance. He was scolding him: "You used the five cities like a funnel. There was a soup spring the day before yesterday. Fortunately, the Jinyiwei caught him up."

Li Jinglong hurriedly knelt down: "I am guilty, please punish me."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a cold expression: "You go down and think about it yourself. If any rebel party escapes from the capital, you will automatically submit a memorial to resign." Li Jinglong quickly kowtowed and thanked him.

When Li Jinglong left, Zhu Yuanzhang scolded Yang Jing again: "I have read the interrogation records of the rebel party. You can figure it out. Now you are not asking you to collect evidence, but just to confirm who is rebel party. As long as there is suspicion, no one is allowed to be let go." Yang Jing voluntarily received the order and retreated.

Zhu Zhi cried out in his heart, and he was so excited that he came to talk to Qu Neng at this time. He was thinking about whether to withdraw and come again another day, but Zhu Yuanzhang had already called him: "Oh, Shiwulang is here, is there anything wrong?"

Zhu Zhi immediately smiled, first reported the good news that Zhu Guankan had captured Sun Rang and Mao Hai alive, and quelled the rebels, and then explained: "Father, why bother so angry? The overall situation has been decided. Why should you make your father so nervous? Just leave the matter to the people below. Your health is important."

Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed his forehead and said, "Oh, this Lan Ni rebellion is a great rebellion. If you don't kill these arrogant soldiers and generals, how can your nephew be in a stable position in the future? You, don't look at the surface. Why are there so many people following Lan Ni's army? "

Zhu Zhi said: "Please give me advice from my father."

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I have resentment towards me, and I blame me for killing too many people in the past two years. Wang Xin, a traitor, was still so stubborn when he was arrested, and he would rather rebel. Am I really the king of Jie and Zhou? I don't want to be at peace with Xunji. But you also have to see what they are doing. Lan Ni asked to resign from the general, but he also asked me to train in Shaanxi. Do you think he is so kind, he wants to separatist the northwest and become his king of northwest. Many people blame me for forcing Fu Youde to death, but he also blamed me for taking his military power and using land as exchange. Do you really think that power can be traded? Keeping such a person will cause trouble for your nephew?

You, you, deeply influenced by the prince's brother, are kind and ruthless, know that the word "righteousness" is the first, and you can't see the small actions of their conspiracy behind the surface respect. The court is in a place of right and wrong, and everyone thinks about their own interests and power. How many ministers are really thinking about the people of the world? Lan Yu has resentment, so I will let him send it out and not help you cut off all these thorns. Can our Zhu family stay firm in the future? For this, I am not afraid of being this tyrant. Shiwulang, you must understand your father's painstaking efforts."

Zhu Zhi was shocked. Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Lan Yu's rebellion was planned by him, but he couldn't figure it out why it was different from history and had to create such a big formation. Isn't Zhu Yuanzhang afraid of anything?

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "I sent all your brothers out to give your nephew a national family, but I also gave you the power to monitor all officials. Those who can trust must be the surname Zhu. From this incident, you and Shiqilang have matured a lot, and finally can share my worries. I feel very comforted."

Zhu Zhi was busy thanking him again. Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was feeling a little calmer, he took out the meritorious memorial book and said, "Father, this is a meritorious minister in the fight against rebellion. Please check it out."

Zhu Yuanzhang put the notebook on the desk and said without looking at it: "Just make the decision on these things, and you must reward if you have any merits. Otherwise, who will still work hard for our Zhu family?"

Zhu Zhi said: "Today, the Jinyiwei came to my place to take the man and took Qu Neng away. I wonder if my father knows?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Oh? There is this."

Zhu Zhi said: "This time, Qu Neng killed the rebel party, Chen Huan, the Marquis of Puding, and captured Li Mao, the governor of the Later Army's Governor's Office, alive. He did not allow Zhang to transfer troops to the hands of the rebels and ranked first. How could he be the rebel party? If he was the rebel party, he would probably all the rebels outside the city would enter the city."

Zhu Yuanzhang leaned back on the chair and said, "But I heard that he was Lan Yu's confidant. Before the incident, he went to the mansion to discuss the treason."

It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang had heard some rumors, and Zhu Zhi could only keep it on his feet: "Father, Qu Neng was in the palace that day, that day, and he was the only person who did not obey Lan Yu. With this alone, he could not be Lan Yu's closest confidant. And what he did that night was in fact. If this person were all against the party, I'm afraid no one would be clean."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was gloomy and calm. At this moment, his face turned dark and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. Have you ever seen Qu Neng on the seventh day of the second month?"

Zhu Zhi's body seemed to be hit by a bullet. How could Zhu Yuanzhang know about this? After that, he wanted to hide this matter from him. What would Lao Zhu think? Zhu Zhi quickly knelt down and said, "Father, my son is guilty. If there was any such incident that day, my son did not report it out of selfishness."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said, "Tell me, what are your selfish thoughts?"

Zhu Zhi did not dare to get up and said sincerely: "First, Quneng's son is in good terms with his son. Erchen met him for their sake. Second, Quneng has the talent of a general, and Erchen cherishes him and wants to protect him. So he concealed his involvement in the Lan Party's rebellion. Alas, Erchen thought about it and looked at his actual actions. If he was indeed loyal to the emperor, it would be fine. If he dared to make any changes, it would not be too late to deal with him. Erchen was confused for a moment, please ask the father to punish him."

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "It's okay if you don't mention this matter, and I don't want to make things difficult for you. But since you mentioned it today, I have to ask you carefully. Do you know what I hate the most? Form a clique for personal gain! You are forming a clique, and your selfishness will eventually ruin you. Zhi'er, you are one of my favorite sons. In the past, you have always been pure in character. What I like is that you are simple and not involved in the complex environment of the court. You like to make friends, and I don't care, but this clique is only at the forefront of making friends.

Qu Neng knew Lan Ni's conspiracy, why didn't he report it to me? He also had selfish intentions. He couldn't figure out whether Lan Ni could succeed, so he wanted to step on two boats. This kind of selfish intention alone would be enough to cure his sins. If you plead for him, you should think carefully. If you make a mistake in forming a clique in the future, who would plead for you?"

Zhu Zhi kept kneeling on the ground, beads of sweat as big as beans flowed down from his face, saying, "My son's loyal father, Mingjian, he recognized his son's decisiveness, if he wanted to beat or punish him."

Zhu Yuanzhang was so scared that he felt relieved. In fact, this was not a big deal. Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that this son was a little clever, but at this important moment, if he didn't teach him a lesson, it would be difficult to discipline him in the future: "Get up, you should punish you if you don't know the crime of not reporting it."

Zhu Zhi then stood up and said, "Father, you can beat me and punish me, but Qu Neng was indeed confused at that time. People are not sages, so no one can do anything wrong. His son said to him at that time: As long as you stand on the side of the emperor, you can keep you rich and noble. Qu Neng finally stopped and reported all the conspiracies about Lan Yu to Erchen, which shows that he had no intention of rebellion, and he also made contributions in his actions. Erchen dared to ask his father to spare him this time."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "Okay, Shiwulang, I have never beg for mercy, but I have to stubbornly talk to Qu Neng, you have the courage to tell me, what exactly makes you so willing to protect him?"

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang could not know Zhu Zhi’s thoughts, and Zhu Zhi could not tell you, “I know how capable Qu Neng is.” But at this critical moment, Zhu Zhi could only impress Lao Zhu with sincerity and said, “Father, my son is the talent who loves him. After Lan Ni, those who are involved must be implicated. In recent years, in the southwest, Mongolia, and western Sichuan, which battle was not commanded by Lan Yu. Most of the generals who can fight in the Ming Dynasty were involved with Lan Ni. Once it became implicated, how many people could stay. My son saw that Qu Neng was quite talented as a general. Now that the Tatar dynasty in the northern border has not been destroyed, the country is still the time to use people. Son, please think twice and let Qu Neng go.”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Do you oppose me cleaning up these thorns?"

Zhu Zhi knelt on the ground and said, "Father! If all the thorns are removed, you can't stab people anymore. My Ming Dynasty cannot be left with only a thornless vine. Otherwise, who can still guard the frontier for the grandson, who can still open up remote territory for the Ming Dynasty! Those who plot against rebels will be eliminated, but Qu Neng will not kill him. Please think twice."

What Zhu Zhi said reminded Zhu Yuanzhang that he really wanted to use Lan Yu to rebel against the Daxing Party case to clear his grandson's ruling path. In the past two days, the number of military generals involved was shocking. If you really want to cut off all these "thorns", the generals who can fight in the Ming Dynasty will really wither.

Zhu Yuanzhang was considering Zhu Zhi's words and pondered for a while before saying, "Okay, okay, I'm not a bloodthirsty person, I'll accept your request. Qu can be exempted from death, but he can't escape the crime of living. Zhier said how to deal with him."

Zhu Zhi thought about it and said, "If the father is not at ease to leave him in the capital, it is better to downgrade him to the third level and let him become a commander at the Yulin Right Guard. Such a person is a talent, but after all, it has stains. It is not good to use it or not. It may be the best for him and his son to guard the border between Liaodong and Liaodong."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "Well, this person is a man of kindness. He can still defend the country's land and land when he arrives in Liaodong." As he said that, Zhu Yuanzhang called the eunuch Liu Yi, the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor, and gave him two edicts, one to pardon Qu Neng, and the other to remove him from his position as governor, excluding the commander of the Right Guard of Yulin. The latter edict was sent to the Ministry of War for filing.

Zhu Yuanzhang handed over the pardon edict to Zhu Zhi: "Go, you pardon him yourself."

Lu Xian personally took Zhu Zhi to the prison of Zhaozhu. In the torture room not far away, shrill shouts came from afar, which made people shudder. I don’t know which general was in court.

The dark cell was filled with a smell of mold, and the steps of several people were clearly heard in the prison. Lu Xian brought Zhu Zhi to a cell and ordered the pawn to open the door. Qu Neng looked at the visitor in surprise, and Zhu Zhi smiled and said, "General Qu, please accept the order." Qu Neng turned around the line of life and death, and was naturally moved, and hurriedly thanked him.

Zhu Zhi led Qu Neng out of the cell and was about to leave when a voice shouted: "Q Neng, stop for me, you villain who betrayed Mr. Liang." Qu Neng lowered his head and said nothing.

Zhu Zhi looked closely and saw a big man in rags and covered with scars lying on the iron railing of the cell. Lu Xian shouted: "Don't be ruthless by the traitor."

Zhu Zhi reached out to stop him and said, "Who are you?"

The big man said, "I am Wang Xin, I recognize you. You are His Highness, the King of Liao. If you lose, you will be defeated. It's a pity, it's a pity that I couldn't kill you before the Meridian Gate that day."

Zhu Zhi laughed and said, "Okay, General Wang, I am a hero, and it is not difficult for you. Do you think you are very righteous in your plan to rebel? You are planning to rebel and rebel, and you have hurt so many people and burned many houses in the capital overnight. Do you still feel very righteous in your opinion? Are you doing the people of the world or for your own power? I think I am the emperor who rises up and resists the Yuan Dynasty and returns the Han people's country. Now everything is in trouble. You do not want to serve the country. Instead, you are in a rebel to rebel. The emperor is sorry to the king and father, and the parents are really unfaithful and unfilial."

After saying something, Wang Xin was dumbfounded and unable to deal with it. He fell down and did not speak for a long time. Zhu Zhi was about to turn around and go out, but Wang Xin said again: "Your Highness, can you tell me where Liang Duke and Liang Duke are now?"

Wang Xin is actually not a person who is unfaithful and unfilial. He is just loyal to different objects. He is loyal to Lan Yu, who has been born and died together, not Zhu Yuanzhang. These people are also heroes. He said that just now out of helplessness. Zhu Zhi sighed in his heart: "Lan Yu has committed suicide."

Wang Xin knelt down on the ground, kowtowed towards Duke Liang, and cried, "Duke Liang, you have a good journey. In a short time, Xin will follow you underground."
