Ming Dynasty: Abandoned baby at the beginning, Zhu let me be the emperor

"What does the Crown Princess mean?"

Qi Tai was finally moved by the Crown Princess's devotion to her family and country. He looked up at Lu and asked.

"Tomorrow, your majesty will certainly hold all the officials accountable. Right now, the only two people your majesty loves the most in the world are the little grandson and Wen'er."

Seeing that Qi Tai finally took the bait, the Crown Princess laughed in her heart, but her face still had that sad look of worrying about the country and the people.

"I think there is no other way. Tomorrow, Mr. Qi Tai and Wen Er will go to Fengtian Palace together to persuade His Majesty not to pursue the matter further."

"This……"

Directly admonishing Zhu Yuanzhang is not low-risk.

But in the words of the Crown Princess, the fate of these people is the fate of all the scholars in the world, and as a scholar, Qi Tai naturally cares about it.

He pondered for a moment, then nodded firmly.

"Then please go back and have a good rest, and tomorrow we will work with Wen'er to save the world's scholars."

Seeing Qi Tai taking the bait, the Crown Princess felt relieved and had Qi Tai invited away.

With Qi Tai's help, things finally turned around.

"Mother, is this okay?"

After seeing Qi Tai off, Zhu Yunwen still looked at Lu with some trepidation and asked cautiously.

"Time is running out, so this is all we can do."

Mrs. Lu sighed. There was only one night left, and even if she had great skills, she could find a better solution.

"Wen'er, remember this. No matter what your grandfather says tomorrow, you must bite the bullet and tie these people together with all the scholars in the world."

Having said that, Lu was afraid that Zhu Yunwen would waver tomorrow, so she looked into his eyes seriously and gave him instructions in a cold voice.

"Yun Wen has made a note of it."

Seeing how serious Lu was, Zhu Yunwen dared not disobey at all and responded obediently.

The next morning, before Zhu Yuanzhang went to court, some of the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall could not help but feel nervous.

Those wealthy businessmen were driven away yesterday, so they have some information.

Naturally, they also knew about the account book.

The only hope now is that the little grandson is still young and has not been found.

When Zhu Yuanzhang came out and sat on the dragon throne, facing the murderous god who was intimidating without even getting angry, these ministers were so panicked that cold sweats broke out.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Even when they were kneeling to salute and wanted to stand up, some people were slow because their hands and feet were weak.

Zhu Yuanzhang said nothing, with a sullen face, looking at the civil and military officials below.

These people appear righteous and well-dressed on a daily basis, but each one of them is dirtier than the other in their hearts.

But Zhu Yuanzhang remained silent, and the ministers who had something to hide became even more frightened.

"His Majesty……"

Noticing Zhu Yuanzhang's abnormality, a minister stood out from the queue.

But just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Lord Wen, please go back first."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not get angry when faced with this minister who stood up, but asked him to retreat in a gentle manner.

The minister who dared to stand up at this moment must have nothing to do with this matter.

Zhu Yuanzhang's abnormal attitude made other ministers even more frightened.

"It's autumn now, the weather is nice and crisp, but why do we see adults sweating profusely?"

After another period of silence, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke slowly, but his tone became increasingly gentle.

But the more abnormal his tone was, the more it proved how angry he was at the moment.

The calm before the storm, that's all.

"Someone, come and give the adults some fans."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and more than a dozen palace maids came in from the palace gate holding fans, and fanned the door of the officials.

"What a coincidence! Why am I not hot? There is wind in my sleeves."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed heartily and waved his wide sleeves as he spoke.

However, the adults in the audience only felt the biting cold wind, but they could only laugh awkwardly along with Zhu Yuanzhang.

"These two sleeves, the heart is naturally cool, but the sleeves are dark..."

As Zhu Yuanzhang was speaking, he suddenly opened his eyes in anger and glanced at all the officials.

The officials who had been smiling awkwardly just now suddenly became quiet. No one dared to face the power of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Lord Wen, did you have something to say just now?"

Seeing that all the officials were shocked by him, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the minister who was about to speak and spoke in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I just saw that Your Majesty didn't say a word, and the dinosaur was in trouble..."

Wen Aiqing immediately knelt on the ground and stammered for a long time before he could put together a complete sentence.

He had no idea why Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry, let alone how to appease his anger.

"I'm fine."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and his tone calmed down again, but all the ministers did not dare to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Only those who think I'm old have problems!"

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, his anger rose again and he glanced at his ministers.

After several ups and downs, the weaker ministers were almost on the verge of collapse, and several of them almost fell to their knees.

"Get up, Lord Wen, I know you are doing this for our own good."

He walked down the hall, personally helped Minister Wen up, then turned around and passed by the other ministers one by one.

"Do you know why I'm so angry today?"

He walked to the back of the ministers and asked slowly.

All the civil and military officials in the court, the most educated people in the world, and the bravest generals were unable to speak under the oppression of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Because yesterday, our good grandson found an account book."

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang said this, the hall fell silent in an instant.

Everyone knew what Zhu Yuanzhang hated the most, and no one dared to offend him at this time.

"You are all people who read the books of sages, you should think about serving the people!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, grabbed the hand of a minister and threw him out.

The minister's hands and feet were weak and he could not stand steadily. He fell directly to the ground and dared not move.

From the beginning, he had noticed these ministers behaving abnormally.

"Your Majesty, I admit my guilt! Please spare my family and I!"

The minister was singled out by Zhu Yuanzhang and had no time to even try to defend himself.

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament, what he was thinking about at this moment was to protect the lives of his family members.

"Don't look at his current appearance. How many of you are clean?"

Zhu Yuanzhang ignored his pleas and continued to glare at the other ministers and scold them harshly.

"I know that some of you are more corrupt and filthy than him!"

As he kept talking, no one among the ministers dared to refute him. They just stood there like a fool.

"I initially thought that the greatest enemy of the Ming Dynasty was Chen Youliang, and I destroyed Chen Youliang."

"Later, I thought that the biggest enemy was the eighteen tribes of the grassland, so I sent people to chase them north and plow through their fields!"
