Zhong Lao, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly appeared and cut off General Li's legs mercilessly.

Hu Wei immediately called Jin Yiwei and threw him into a big prison for interrogation slowly.

after that.

Li Bujiang told the truth of the matter during the torture.

It turned out that the real identity of General Li was the caught fish of the underground organization "ghost market" that Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to destroy nine years ago.

His identity is actually the ghost king of the ghost city.

After the ghost market was over, he ran to Xi'an to take refuge, and changed his name to a minister surnamed Li, intending to use the power of King Qin to restore the ghost market.

As for spying on Jin Yiwei's information, assassinating Jin Yiwei, and even killing Zhu Xi in the end, he also confessed everything.

With the capture of the ghost king, the hidden dangers left by the extermination of the ghost city nine years ago and the scourge left by the Prince Qin's mansion have also been dealt with.

Afterwards, King Qin's hidden belongings of the ghost king were never found, and Jin Yiwei gave up looking for them.

Let's say that Zhu Xiongying accompanied Luanjia back to the capital.

……

On Fengtian Temple.

The incense table is placed in the middle, and the imperial edict has been written and placed on it.

The ceremonial officers solemnly took their positions one by one according to the rules and regulations.

The Jinwu Guards are majestically arranged on the east and west sides of the Meridian Gate.

After the battle of the imperial forest army, all civil and military officials also lined up outside the Meridian Gate to wait for the prince.

The rites and music were played, and Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the throne majestically.

I saw Zhu Xiongying dressed in splendid attire, surrounded by his entourage, walking slowly from the Meridian Gate to stand under the throne of Fengtian Hall.

Then, civil and military officials lined up outside the Fengtian Hall in turn, and the ritual officials began to read the imperial edict.

"Bong, God carries it."

"The emperor's system says: Nanggu is the sage, and those who have successively controlled the universe will be the first to build the crown prince..."

"I have been the throne since Jiachen, and Wushen has been the emperor's guard. It has been 24 years now."

"The former puts a lot of effort into raising generals to train soldiers, calming chaos in the world, suppressing soldiers in the world, and laying people's lives in the fields."

"Since the reunification, we have put a lot of effort into eradicating rape, corruption, and power."

"Recently, Cang Yan has a bright head, heirs are the most important, and the grandson Xiongying, on March [-], will be registered as the emperor's grandson."

"Succeeding to the gods and gods, to An Li Shu."

"Tell your subjects, if you want to know."

"Qinzai—"

Civil and military officials knelt down holding blessings and said:

"The foundation of the country has been decided, and the Ming Dynasty will be eternal!"

Then, for the first time in his life, Zhu Xiongying enjoyed the neat worship of civil and military officials.

from now on.

Him, Zhu Xiongying.

He is the official grandson of the emperor of Ming Dynasty!

……

Liang Guo Gongfu.

Sapphire laughed and returned.

"Haha, now that kid Zhu Xiongying has really become the grandson of the emperor, I don't need to keep a low profile anymore, come here!"

He summoned a group of servants and commanded:

"Go to the official residence of the Chinese and military officials in Beijing and tell them that the Duke of the country is going to hold a big banquet tonight to celebrate!"

……

Taimiao.

Xu Guanting and a group of students described how great Zhu Xiongying is.

He does not participate in the discussion.

All he knew was that he had to make adequate preparations for the palace test five days later.

Only in this way can he become a capable minister beside Zhu Xiongying and show his ambition.

……

The land of the capital city.

A girl who had just entered Beijing was dazed in a daze with the news that was announced to the world today.

"He... is actually the grandson of the emperor..."

The woman thought tangled in her heart:

"Should I...do I still want to go find him?"

……

Posthouse.

The feudal kings could finally sit together peacefully.

Everyone ridiculed Zhu Di and said:

"Unexpectedly, the fourth child, who has always been known for his ability to fight well, would be defeated by a child."

Zhu Di said very calmly:

"It has nothing to do with age, it's just that my skills are not as good as others."

Zhu Yan mocked:

"Thanks for your self-knowledge, but it still has something to do with age, fourth child, you are already old!"

Zhu Di replied, "That's better than you."

"Two big brothers." The low-key old fifth Wu Wang Zhu Wei said: "The crown prince has been decided, and there is no point in fighting any more. Why don't we work together in the future to assist Xiongying and create a foundation for eternity?"

Zhu Di and Zhu Bing looked at Zhu Bing at the same time and said:

"You still have the face to say?"

All the vassal kings laughed, and the posthouse was filled with cheerful air.

Zhu Xi wiped his cold sweat.

There are the third and fourth townsmen, and it is better for the feudal lords to be more honest in the future.

……

The next day.

Zhu Xiongying officially enjoys the same treatment as his father Zhu Biao before his death, and has the power to supervise the country's governance.

It's just that Zhu Xiongying has not exerted his strength in the court at present.

Because it is actually very difficult to control the team left by his father.

Zhu Xiongying is quite clear that he and Zhu Biao have completely different political ideas, so it turns out that Zhu Biao's confidants may not become his confidants.

Now he wants to make a difference in the court, besides checking and balancing the officials, he also needs to support his confidants.

Zhu Yuanzhang is also very aware of this.

In fact, after the death of the prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang has been subtracting all the officials in the court, just hoping that there will be no situation where capable ministers control the government.

At the same time, he also hopes to help Zhu Xiongying develop a team.

As for the fact that Zhu Xiongying's philosophy and policy of governing the country are contrary to Zhu Yuanzhang's own, Lao Zhu doesn't care at all.

He only cares that Zhu Xiongying is a hardworking, upright, and capable person who loves the people, and that is enough.

So Zhu Yuanzhang quickly gave Zhu Xiongying an important opportunity.

There is still one day left before the imperial examination.

Inside the Hall of Martial Arts.

"Xiongying, the imperial examination is coming soon, why don't you guess who will win the number one prize?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Xiongying said without thinking:

"I guess Xu Guanhui from Chizhou is the champion of the new division."

However, Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled and said:

"I will try Jie Yuan, there is indeed great hope, and you have a very good relationship."

Zhu Xiongying thought to himself, why did Grandpa Huang say this to herself?

Among them... Could there be some deep meaning?

I only heard Zhu Yuanzhang say: "I have investigated this person, if he becomes the champion this time, he will win three prizes in a row, which is unprecedented. If this person can help you wholeheartedly, I am very optimistic about him..."

"Well, this year's No. [-] Scholar will be decided by you..."

"Whether you can choose him or not depends on your ability."

Zhu Xiongying immediately understood Zhu Yuanzhang's intention.

You must know that the number one scholar is one in a thousand talents, and for Zhu Yuanzhang, that is the most important treasure.

And when Zhu Yuanzhang gave Zhu Xiongying the right to be the imperial champion, he gave Zhu Xiongying the most important treasure.

In other words.

"Grandpa Huang wants to use this palace test to formally let me form a team..." Zhu Xiongying thought.

However, finding Xu Guan's paper among Jinshi's examination papers is not a sure thing.

"Ahem..." Zhu Yuanzhang coughed and said, "You still have half a day to prepare, so you can figure it out yourself."

A strong sense of suggestion made Zhu Xiongying suddenly have a bold idea.

Could it be...?

Chapter 288 Obtaining the No. [-] Scholar by Cheating?

Using this half day, can we ensure that Xu Guan wins the first prize?

It does.

As long as the resources and power of the royal family are used, what's so difficult about "appointing" a champion?

This is just to make Xu Guan, who is loyal to him, become the champion, so as to help himself and gain more resources in the competition between the court and China.

Zhu Xiongying thought about it carefully.

Now, Xu Guan has become his [Empire Minister] in the system.

Although the advantage is that Xu Guan is absolutely loyal to Zhu Xiongying.

But the downside is that his future will change because of Zhu Xiongying's choice.

Zhu Yuanzhang's decision out of good intentions made Zhu Xiongying stand at the moment of choice to decide Xu Guan's fate!

But Zhu Xiongying didn't think too long.

In fact, there is no need to question Xu Guan's talent, and the results of the Huichao Jieyuan have already explained everything.

However, what the palace examination examines is not just talent, but his ability as a courtier.

To be a good courtier is what he should do.

As for whether he can win the first prize, what does it have to do with me, Zhu Xiongying?
