Along the way, Liu Hong's face gradually became cloudy, which made several followers such as Niu Dabang and Mallet behind him quite puzzled.

"Sir, although those people speak roughly, I hear that they are all praising you! Why are you still so unhappy? Niu Dabang asked.

"Ten hundred praises are fine, if all the people in the world praise one person, if you are that person, can you still sleep peacefully?" Liu Hong gradually sighed lightly.

"Then why don't you feel uncomfortable, I haven't done anything wrong, is it possible that I can still ask for sin and me because I have done a lot of good things?" The bull stared at the boss with a big stick and a mallet, he was straight-minded, and he was most unaccustomed to injustice.

"Lord Niu, Chang is now sure that you didn't make a mistake in following the prince, if you really go to the court, there will be no scum left to be gnawed." Chang Yu shook his head and said.

Their positions are similar to those titles, and they often joke, but Chang Yu understands people in the end, and he vaguely feels that Liu Hongji's situation is not very good.

The Ming Dynasty has never had a courtier's prestige higher than the emperor, if this courtier controls the military power in the world and wins the hearts of the people, can the emperor still tolerate it?

At the same time, Chang Yu was also very puzzled, although Liu Hongjian had a good reputation among the people before he set out for Nanyang, it was far from the point where the streets were full of praises of merit and virtue.

It's only been half a year, why did it become like this?

Chang Yu saw that Liu Hongji's face was calm and he didn't say much, but just silently followed behind Liu Hongji.

Liu Hongjian did not plan to personally go to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop to confront him, as the king of Qin could not find the fart people, he went directly to the Jinyiwei office of Quanzhou Mansion and explained that he would interrogate on his behalf.

The reason why he is so cautious is because Zhu Cihong's overnight stay in the county palace is very confidential, and few people know about it at all, but now it is circulating in the market, this is not normal, there must be a driving force behind it, but who will it be?

Coming out of the Jinyiwei office, Liu Hong gradually lost his interest in shopping, so he went home again.

"Husband, have you encountered any troubles? Worried. Sun Xiuxiu, as a wife, saw through Liu Hong's disguise at a glance.

"yes, it's annoying, there are always people on the street who praise their husbands." Liu Hong gradually sat among the five wives and said unashamedly.

"The old man is clean and smelly, how can he be praised by others." Yang Xue hugged the youngest son of the Qin Palace.

Although she is already a mother, perhaps under the protection of the Qin Palace, Yang Xue's temperament is almost the same as a few years ago.

"Didn't the husband say a long time ago that the burden on his shoulders was too heavy, and now that the Ming Kingdom is safe, you can take it off!" Sun Xiuxiu immediately guessed the probable and comforted.

Zhu Cihong called her sister-in-law, Sun Xiuxiu didn't think that Zhu Cihong would unload the mill and kill the donkey, as long as her husband removed those titles, she thought that her family would be able to sleep in peace.

"Sister, how can I do it, if my husband doesn't do it, my imperial brother won't be able to play at all!" Kun Xing said mischievously when he heard this.

"If my husband is unemployed, will you support me?" Liu Hong gradually said with a shy face.

He didn't want to bring those negative emotions to his home, and he was half-joking.

"Yes, yes! We raise you! Wan'er will make a lot of delicious food, Xiang'er will make clothes, Sister Xiuxiu will settle accounts, our family is rich, do you know? Yang Xue was happy when she heard it.

"If the husband can stay at home with us all the time, we will raise you until you can't walk!"

"Hahahaha! Yes, then the husband will eat soft rice in the future! Liu Hong gradually laughed when he heard this.

……

Three days later, Jinyiwei's people came to report to Liu Hongji, and after repeated interrogation and verification, the news came from the mouth of a person named Pang Minyou.

This Pang Min also runs a family cloth shop in the capital, and his wife is related to the mother-in-law of the Zhang family in Quanzhou, but the news of where Pang Min came from is unknown, and he needs to do an inventory after returning to Beijing.

Liu Hongjian stayed in Quanzhou for another three or two days, and because he had something on his mind, he took his five wives and five children to prepare to return to the capital.

After taking the water route and then the land route, the group finally arrived in Beijing in mid-November.

In the evening of the same day, Han Yu, who had been promoted to the first assistant of the cabinet, personally visited Liu Hongji.

Uncle Han and Liu Hongji's father are about the same age, and Father Liu was on crutches two years ago, but Uncle Han is still in good spirits and walks vigorously.

"My lord, have you ever heard what the people in the market have said about you along the way?" Han Yu stroked his beard and said.

"That's for sure, the people have praised this king to the sky, before, this king didn't know that he was so good, so awesome!" Liu Hong gradually laughed at himself.

"Hehe, adults should be careful, the main reason why my subordinates came here this time is to remind your adults that a lot of information from the people is unknown, and there may be people with ill intentions in the DPRK who are deliberately targeting you." Han Yu sighed and said.

"They really played a good hand of cards this time, and they even thought of retreating as advance, and defeated Lao Tzu by praising Lao Tzu, high! It's really high! Liu Hong's eyes were quite unkind when he said this.

He has his own set of rules for speaking and doing things, that is, he does not admit defeat, this son can step back by himself when he is tired of sitting down, but he must not tolerate being forced to retreat.

"Does Han Lao know who is behind it?" Liu Hongjian asked again.

"Lord Hui, there are only a few people who have political disagreements with you in the DPRK and China, who can they be?" Han Yu smiled slightly.

When Liu Hong heard this, he immediately thought of the old men in the cabinet, except for Uncle Han in the cabinet, it is estimated that they don't know how to think of themselves.

"As the adults said, their tricks this time seem to be no tricks, but they are the most deadly, even if you find evidence, what crime can you punish them? Is it a sin to boast?

What's more, we don't have the evidence yet. Han Yu said.

Han Yu has been immersed in Confucianism all his life, and he is sleek and sophisticated in self-cultivation and dealing with people, and in his opinion, such a character and style as Liu Hongjian cannot gain a foothold in the DPRK and China.

Too flamboyant, ignoring the ancestral system, ignoring etiquette, although not arrogant, but also will never be modest, although not benevolent, but also will never be soft, not through power and official skills, but a very popular minister.

In the past few years of his reign, he has offended the imperial family, state relatives, and officials of various factions over and over again.

In fact, at that time, Han Yu had said to Liu Hongjian that he would leave a line in everything and see each other in the future, but Liu Hong gradually became jealous and hateful, and he couldn't wait to beat corrupt officials and relatives of the emperor into the eighteenth layer of hell.

After several repressions, the courtiers and nobles who dared to oppose Liu Hong's gradual administration had already become obscure and intelligent, and they may have relented for the time being, but Han Yu never believed that they would give in.

These old guys who regard Confucianism as a holy canon may have no backbone in national righteousness, but they regard death as their home in the struggle for power in officialdom.

Han Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, if this war without gunpowder was lost, as a veritable royal party, his own officialdom career might also end.

"Is Old Han so unconfident in this king? In fact, this king didn't take them into account at all, all the king's thoughts and worries were for the sake of Zhongxing Daming, so that 60 million people could live a good life.

This king does not believe that this glorious and fierce frontier cannot tolerate a person who asks for his life for the people.

If it really comes to that point, this king will not be sad, he can only blame himself for looking away, and if he doesn't change his life, what can he do? Liu Hong gradually sat upright, and said lightly.

Thinking that he was in danger, he had gone through a few times in the sword mountain and the sea of fire, could it be that he couldn't stand it?

Han Yu was shocked when he heard this, and said that he couldn't say anything, but Liu Hong gradually didn't care at all, he had worked hard for Da Ming all these years, and he thought that he hadn't done anything bad, of course, he didn't want to end up with a cunning rabbit to death, a lackey cooking, a flying bird, and a good bow to hide.

"What's more, those dog thieves also look down on His Majesty the Emperor's mind too much!" Liu Hong's words gradually changed, and his words became cold.
