"Thank you, Lord Zhan, for saving my life!" After being stunned for a moment, Yuan Tai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, felt a little scared, and bowed deeply to Zhan Hui.

Since he can work in the Censorate, he is not a coward.

But if he died because of being involved in Zhou Dexing's affairs, then his death would be worthless and not worth it.

Zhan Hui raised his hand slightly, "Master Yuan, there's no need to be so polite. I've said before, I simply don't want to see you go astray. Sometimes, don't dwell on those things about 'leaving your name in history'. Think more and give more thought."

Having said that.

But Zhan Hui's face was also filled with great horror.

In fact, he was not unaware that there was something fishy about Zhu Yunwen's affairs. He also knew that in order to consolidate his position, the little fox Zhu Yunwen would sooner or later take action against Zhou Dexing's family.

But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

"How come Zhou Dexing's son got into trouble, and they just happened to catch him? It's like giving someone a pillow when they're sleepy. How could it really be such a coincidence?"

Besides being shocked, Zhan Hui couldn't understand this.

But the news he got was: there was a large amount of witnesses and evidence, and they were caught in bed together.

Zhu Yunwen's illness may be a myth. After all, people eat all kinds of grains, so it is not surprising for them to get sick. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just died suddenly.

But things like having an affair with palace maids and causing chaos in the harem must be done by the person himself and be seen by others.

"Could it be that this new emperor is truly one who follows the will of heaven?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhan Hui couldn't help but think so in his heart.

While he was lost in thought, his thoughts were interrupted by Yuan Tai's voice: "Master Zhan has never been a person who only listens to one side of the story. Could it be that he knows something?"

Zhan Hui came back to his senses.

He sighed deeply and chuckled at himself: "Oh, what do you know...what can I know."

Even though he knew part of the truth, he still felt that his understanding of the new emperor was just the tip of the iceberg.

Besides, he certainly couldn't just tell anyone what he knew, which was only the tip of the iceberg.

However, he did not hide what he could say.

After a pause, he began to remind them, "The court has undergone a major change, with the old replacing the new. These past few days, all of you have focused your attention on the new emperor, watching him plant flowers and plants, and watching him make ceramics."

"Didn't you all love to keep an eye on those Huaixi nobles in the past? Why don't you take a look at what they have done since the new emperor took the throne?"

I heard Zhan Hui mention the nobles of Huaixi.

Yuan Tai's first reaction was a look of disdain and resentment. "What else can they do? It's nothing more than those vile things. They have merits and are of great use, but the previous emperor was unwilling to touch them. What did the new emperor rely on to ascend to the throne? You and I know it very well. They are only getting worse. Ugh!"

There was a look of helplessness on his face.

Zhu Yunhuan would never touch the Huaixi nobles today. Even if temporary stability is maintained now, the future of the Ming Dynasty is still worrying!

Zhan Hui sneered lightly without taking it seriously.

He shook his head and left, walking past Yuan Tai towards the Censorate.

Leaving Yuan Tai with a confused look on his face.

……

at the same time.

The central hall of the Qianqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, the entire family of Marquis Jiangxia has been sentenced to death." Jiang Lin took the opportunity to sneak into the mourning hall and report to Zhu Yuanzhang. After all, this matter was of no trivial importance. Marquis Jiangxia Zhou Dexing was indeed your Majesty's childhood playmate and an old friend for many years.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang just narrowed his eyes slightly.

He nodded and said, "Given Yunxun's temperament and meticulous mind, he will do this sooner or later. Is it because he is going to ascend the throne tomorrow and wants to guard against Zhou Dexing, so he can't wait?"

For Zhu Yuanzhang, playmates and old friends were all just clouds.
