Wandering the Heavens

The next morning, Yu Xian was called by Zhu Di again, and the questions he asked almost sent Yu Xian away.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Master!"

"Do you still have the thing you gave my grandson yesterday?" Zhu Di asked directly.

Brother, this is a temple, is it appropriate for you to ask this question? You didn't even avoid the monk Yao Guangxiao.

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate!" Yu Xian thought of the saddest thing in his life and barely managed to control his expression.

"Do you mean this place is inappropriate, or my identity is inappropriate?" Zhu Di had no intention of letting him go.

Yu Xian looked at Yao Guangxiao, hoping that he would help him persuade him, but he looked up at Tianquan and pretended not to see anything. Thinking about Ni Jinxian's disgusting nickname, it seemed that he was about to fall into that trap.

"Your Majesty, if this matter gets out, it will damage your wisdom!" Yu Xian took a long time to come up with this reason.

"Little snot, will you tell anyone?" Zhu Di asked casually and then stared at Yu Xian. If this matter today was to be spread, it would be from your mouth.

"Your Majesty, I am not that kind of person. Even if I don't spread it, there are still the daily records and the internal daily records. These will be recorded in the official records in the future. It would not be good if future emperors read them or spread them out."

Yu Xian's words were really asking for trouble. The emperor was still alive and well, but he was telling him about the bad things that would happen after his death.

"This matter is simple. I'll just tell them not to write it down." Zhu Di didn't care about this at all.

You, Zhu Laosi, are awesome!

When Li Erfeng was chatting with the historian, she asked him how he recorded her in the history books. Not only was she mocked by the historian, but she was also accused by later generations of being the first emperor to interfere with official history. Although you, Zhu Laosi, want to be like others in everything, but asking them to ignore professional ethics and give you face is a bit too much.

"However, I will make you a new pair some other day. The one used by the Crown Prince is not suitable for your body."

Don't you know your own health? Still want to play with those young people. Life is really hard for workers.

"Okay, then you pay attention. I called you here today for two things. One is to chop off the second brother's hand, and then arrange a meeting between me and that nephew. The second thing is not urgent. Zheng He is coming back, so you can just take care of it." Zhu Di talked about business.

"The minister obeys the order!"

These days, Zhu Di finally made up his mind that the second son should go back to his fiefdom. If he didn't want to go, he could just chop off his hands to avoid any complications.

In order to ensure that no one was left alive, Yu Xian personally led the team at night. After a round of killing, all the people in the underground arsenal, from the craftsmen to Huangfu, were killed in one night, and the cellar was also buried.

Zhu Gaoxu was completely confused. All his hard work was in vain. He couldn't help but think that the old man was really cruel. He had been watching all his tricks over the years. Now there was Yu Xian, the evil spirit. How would he live in the future?

Yu Xian carried Huangfu's bloody head into the imperial prison and threw it in front of Xu Bin.

"Have you seen this man? Your ten years of operation are a joke. So tell this commander the whereabouts of Jianwen!"

Yu Xian held the knife against Xu Bin's Adam's apple with murderous intent. Covered in blood and emanating a murderous aura, he looked like a god of death.

"You... you have the guts to kill me!"

It's not that Xu Bin had never thought about committing suicide, but he was drugged and couldn't use any strength in his body. It was simply unrealistic to commit suicide by banging his head against the wall or biting his tongue.

"Being alive is the greatest torture for you! This commander has asked the Liaodong Thousand Households to send the situation of those 30,000 families to Yingtian as soon as possible. By then, a clerk will be arranged to read their experiences word by word to you. That scene..." Yu Xian retracted the bloody Embroidered Spring Knife.

"I hope that the suffering you and they have endured will be worthy of your loyalty." Yu Xian's voice was like a devil crawling out of hell.

"You will die a horrible death!" Xu Bin could only feel helpless and furious.

"It doesn't matter whether this commander dies or not, just don't even think about living well!" Yu Xian sat opposite, covered in blood.

"How can there be people like you in this world!" Xu Bin began to struggle again.

"It's because of people like you! You don't think that what you do is so aboveboard, do you?" Yu Xian said sarcastically.

"Isn't it? Zhu Di's rebellion disrupted the moral order of the Ming Dynasty. There's nothing wrong with us putting order out of chaos!" Xu Bin argued.

"Your moral principles? Emperor Taizu Gao died in May, and you instigated Jianwen to issue an edict not allowing the kings to return to the capital for the funeral. You keep talking about filial piety, but in the end you prevented the late emperor's children from coming back to fulfill their filial duties. Have you read all the books of sages? Then in July, King Zhou was deposed. Are you so impatient to reduce the power of the vassal states or to clip the wings of the royal family?" Yu Xian began to quibble.

"You're talking nonsense, they are trying to consolidate the emperor's power!" Xu Bin was furious.

"There are many ways to consolidate the emperor's power. Why do you want to kill all the descendants of Emperor Taizu? Where is the kindness of you scholars? This commander admits that Taizu's descendants have done many illegal things, but you are unwilling to deal with them according to the law. Instead, you fabricate charges and set up a prison. Especially the Prince of Xiang, who was forced to burn himself to death to prove his innocence. Even after this, you did not let him go, but gave him a bad posthumous title. You are not reducing the power of the princes, but clearly massacring the royal family. I believe that after all the royal family members are killed by you, your final target will be Jianwen on the throne!" Yu Xian pointed at Xu Bin and scolded him loudly.

"Shut up, we are right. We are only thinking about the emperor. It is you who have evil intentions and maliciously speculate on our intentions. You deserve to die!" Xu Bin collapsed.

"Haha, when you instigated Jianwen to reduce the power of the princes and kill the uncles, weren't you malicious and speculating against the princes? What were you thinking?" Yu Xian took back the words that Xu Bin had thrown at him.

"You are quibbling. Didn't Zhu Di rebel in the end? This proves that we were right to reduce the power of the princes!" Xu Bin seemed to come to his senses and stared at Yu Xian.

"You are well-versed in history books. Can you tell me whether there were any princes who seized the throne by rebellion during the Qin, Han, Jin, Sui, Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties?" Yu Xian brought up an irrelevant question.

Xu Bin shook his head, not understanding why.

"You also know that no prince in these dynasties could obtain the throne through war! Survival is a human instinct. The Prince of Yan watched his brothers, one after another, being deposed, falsely accused and exiled, or forced to death! If he doesn't resist, he may not see the sun tomorrow. It is you civil officials who are going too far!" Yu Xian raised his voice.

"When Taizu was in power, he treated officials and court officials harshly, so after he passed away, you plotted against the royal family. You are seeking revenge! You are seeking revenge for those corrupt officials who betrayed the emperor and the country and harmed the people in the Guo Heng and Empty Seal cases. No matter how high-sounding your excuses are, they cannot cover up the filthiness and dirtiness in your hearts! You will not be remembered in history. This commander will write a book and a play about your scandals, so that those illiterate people can see your darkest side!"

"No, you can't do this! You are doing something against the will of heaven, you are aiding and abetting evil, you will be infamous for eternity!" Xu Bin shook his head, trembling all over.

"So, now you tell me where Jianwen is!" Yu Xian picked up the bloody Xiuchun Knife again.

"No, I can't say!" Xu Bin shook his head desperately.

"No, if you can say it, just say it. Say it!" Yu Xian's voice seemed to have an irresistible magic.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is in the south of Huating... South Mountain Temple." Xu Bin struggled to tell the whereabouts of Jianwen as if he was competing with himself, and then fainted.
