Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Just as Zhu Yuanzhang was busy with the ministers, Zhu Tao was showing Shen Wan'er his new invention.

During this period of time, Shen Wan'er came to Zhu Tao Zhuangzi more and more times, because she could find different surprises every time she came.

In addition to the different delicious food every time, there are also different inventions and gadgets, which opened her eyes.

Zhu Tao pierced a cut bamboo tube with a piece of iron wire, and put a carbon rod in it, and pulled the other end far away into another room.

Shen Wan'er next to him watched, not knowing what he was going to do: "Brother Tao, what's the use of this thing? It seems to be an ordinary bamboo tube."

"Take this end and go back to your room, and you'll know in a while."

Shen Wan'er was puzzled and came back with this bamboo tube, carefully arranged it, turned it over and over again, and didn't know what it was useful for.

At this moment, I suddenly found a voice in the bamboo tube: "Lingyu, are you there? Can you hear me?"

"Ah, Brother Tao, when did you come here?"

Shen Wan'er hurriedly raised her head, but found that there was no one in front of her, and she didn't even move the door curtain: "You're still listening to brother Tao, where did he go?"

I was talking to myself, and suddenly I heard someone beside me saying: "Lingyu, I am here."

Although the voice was very small, she could hear it clearly, it was Zhu Tao's.

"Brother Tao, where are you? Don't scare me, Wan'er is timid, come out quickly, don't scare me."

Zhu Tao's giggling came from the bamboo tube: "Did you hear that? I'm here."

This thing is really amazing. Even though you can't see people, you can hear so clearly. Only Brother Tao can research such a magical thing.

After Zhu Tao came out, Shen Wan'er pestered him, insisting on making him explain clearly what it was, Zhu Tao said.

"It's just a little thing, it's still in the research stage, I'll explain the principle to you when it's perfected later, and I'll make some more fun ones for you then."

Shen Wan'er didn't ask further, she just said.

"Brother Tao is really amazing. Every time I come to you, I can see many treasures, and the food you cook is also the best. By the way, I want to eat today."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone coughed outside: "Miss, the master told you to go back immediately, there is something urgent at home, the master is in a hurry, so we can't delay."

The person who came was Wan'er's personal maid, Xiaoying.

Wan'er blushed, and gently pushed Zhu Tao away, only then did she realize that there was a difference between the two men and women, and she was too forgetful just now.

Zhu Tao also felt that his actions were a bit excessive, so he took a few steps back embarrassingly.

"Lingyu, you should go and ask what happened. I think she came here in such a hurry, it must be something important."

At this time, Shen Wan'er had already called Xiaoying in and asked him what happened.

Xiaoying didn't hide Zhu Tao's back, and said directly: "I heard that my uncle has some opinions on the emperor's new policy, and I casually said a few words to my colleagues. You go to the uncle's house to say hello."

After hearing this, Wan'er was also very anxious, and told Zhu Tao apologetically.

"Something happened at home, Wan'er will go back now, Brother Tao, if there is anything interesting in the future, wait for me to come and play with you." After giving instructions, she hurriedly left in the car.

Zhu Tao didn't understand what Wan'er said, but it didn't matter.

He still has his own affairs to be busy, such as developing some new seeds as soon as possible, and opening a new experimental field.

In fact, how did he know that the accident at Wan'er's house was really the result of his words last night.

It turns out that Wan'er's uncle is named Shen Bainian, who is now a doctor of the Ministry of Officials' Examination Department. He is usually a clean and honest official, belongs to the Huaixi school, and has a good relationship with Li Shanchang and others.

When I was in court today, I suddenly heard that the court has a new policy. In order to prevent corruption, it will set up an anti-corruption department to do something directly against those corrupt officials.

He frowned when he heard that, these matters were originally the affairs of his bureaucracy, half of the good rights were simply divided by others, who would be happy to change it.

After going to court, he followed a few close friends, civil servants and military generals, and talked casually after drinking.

But I forgot such a saying, that is, walls have ears.

What's more, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just founded the Ming Dynasty, was not a vegetarian. He also had Jinyiwei all over the world under his command. These people inquired about civil and military officials in the market, and reported to Zhu Yuanzhang at any time.

It so happened that one of these people named Ji Meng was having dinner with his older brother Ji Gang in a restaurant, and overheard them discussing the imperial court's new policy, the two looked at each other.

So Ji Meng gave Ji Gang a wink, and said: "Brother, you drink first, there is still one dish not served, I will go to the back to remind you."

With this excuse, he went down to the restaurant, went directly to the palace, and reported the news to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was discussing the government affairs.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard it, since someone was talking about it, he was furious, and immediately ordered Jin Yiwei to arrest Shen Bainian.

This Shen Bainian drank a few glasses of wine and was talking happily when he was suddenly held down by these Jin Yiwei and brought into the palace, but he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground begging for mercy.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him: "Wu Shan, the magistrate of Gaomi County, has no regard for human life. In your performance appraisal department, he was rated as a virtuous and outstanding person. Is there such a thing?"

Hearing this, Shen Bainian was taken aback at the time: "Your Majesty, this minister has neglected his duties. Please forgive me. I will never dare to do this again!"

"We also know that Wu Shan is your brother, and you are the one who concealed the evidence that he disregarded human life, right?"

Shen Bainian did this perfectly, but Zhu Yuanzhang found out about it, and was so frightened that he sweated profusely and kowtowed repeatedly.

"We only realized today that it's people like you who will strongly oppose our new policy. If a black sheep like you is not eradicated, how can the court have peace?"

Shen Bainian kowtowed like garlic: "The emperor please read that for the sake of my humble minister's contribution back then, please spare my life."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face sank like water: "Remove your official position, send you three thousand miles, serve in the army for 15 years, and you will not be able to return to Beijing after 15 years of amnesty. Are you convinced?"

The man was so frightened, the emperor felt lucky that he didn't skin him and eat grass, kowtowed to thank him, and then rolled and crawled out of the Golden Luan Hall.

"Like this kind of wretched person can also talk about the New Deal without thinking about it. We want to see who else will talk about it in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, a little contemptuously, and then strode away.
