Huang Zicheng was indeed a lot smarter, he sat opposite Liu Chun, his chin was upturned, his face was sunken, and his face was distorted into a shoehorn, full of sorrowful words. It's funny and pitiful to look at.

"Lord Liu, the concubine Li Qi said a lot of rebellious things, at most three points are true, and the remaining seven points are false. It was he who made it up in order to survive, and he couldn't take it seriously, otherwise, it would be a river of blood......" Huang Zicheng leaned over and almost pleaded: "Lord Liu, tell that old man, there are thousands of people who have a door on their mouths, what they can say, what they can't say, don't say it." I'm not for myself, but I'm worried that I will shake the context of the Ming Dynasty and damage my vitality. I am dedicated to the sake of the court, and this heart and this situation can be seen every day! ”

As he spoke, he found that Liu Chun's eyes were empty, and he didn't seem to care at all, Huang Zicheng was also anxious, "Lord Liu, I didn't lie to you, he, he mentioned restoring the phase, this, is this a joke?" His Majesty personally abolished the Zhongshu Province and restored the phase, that is, to work against His Majesty. If it causes the wrath of thunder, it will ambush millions of corpses! ”

What can Liu Chun say, you are very right, the problem is that Lao Tzu doesn't know that Li Qi dares to talk nonsense, if he knows that this will be the case, I won't give Lao Zhu this advice.

Liu Chun felt that as long as Zhu Yuanzhang heard Li Qi's words, he would immediately have a seizure, and he had already ordered Jinyiwei to be ready to arrest people at any time.

But who would have thought that Lao Zhu actually couldn't hold back and didn't have a seizure, and after he came back, he didn't even take off his makeup, just in the study, and fell into deep thought.

Huang Zicheng followed, and he revealed some of the content of the conversation to Liu Chun.

When Liu Chun heard this, he completely understood.

Finished!

No one can stop it!

It's no wonder if you don't kill a river of blood this time! The ambitions and calculations of the Li family's father and son completely broke Lao Zhu's bottom limit. At present, the calmer His Majesty the Emperor is, the more terrible it will be.

If you don't believe it, we'll see!

Huang Zicheng chattered, trying to persuade Liu Chun, but Liu Chun was silent, and when they were at a stalemate, someone suddenly coughed.

"Liu Chun, my father called you over!"

This voice is so familiar!

Huang Zicheng raised his head suddenly, almost crying, it was the prince Zhu Biao!

Since the separation of Beiping, they finally met again. Presumably, his own efforts can make the prince change his impression and have the opportunity to return to the East Palace.

By the way, what did the prince say just now?

Father!

Your Majesty!

Call Yoo Chun over!

When is Your Majesty coming?

Huang Zicheng's eyes widened and he looked at Liu Chun in fear, and Liu Chun shrugged helplessly at him.

An explosion of thunder exploded in Huang Zicheng's head!

Finished!

The old man...... Yes, it's the Emperor!

Oops!

Huang Zicheng's eyes were dark, and his heart was dead, damn it, he actually let His Majesty serve and drink, this is a big rebellion! Fortunately, he didn't know, he couldn't care about anyone, he only had to try to remember, think about what he said, but don't make a taboo, otherwise his head will move.

Huang Da Tanhua, honest and afraid.

When the catastrophe comes, whether you can die or live, it depends on the will of God! Huang Zicheng is not so entangled, this is the way things are, when it doesn't happen, be scared, once it happens, you can only resign yourself to fate.

……

"Liu Chun, are you guilty?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was cold, like an emotionless robot, and at this time, Liu Chun had to admit that it was a blessing to be scolded!

"I don't know!"

"You don't know?" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly and pointed at his head, "Someone used the bank you suggested to form a party for personal gain, and was ready to work against me, aren't you guilty?" ”

"Your Majesty, if someone kills someone with a knife, do you want to investigate the person who made the knife in the first place?"

"You're quibbling!" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "Li Shanchang and his son, they want to recruit all the officials and gentry in Suzhou under his command, and they must restore the phase." Dare to say that it wasn't you who gave him the guts? ”

Liu Chun still bowed down and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, the minister dares to ask for advice, even if there is no bank, will these people do this?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised by this question.

Is it true that if the prime minister is abolished, the prime minister can really be eliminated?

In fact, this is just wishful thinking. When the emperor is weak, he has to rely on the civil officials below to help govern the country, and the civil officials share the power of the monarchy, which is a veritable prime minister.

Careful comparison, in addition to the prime ministers who were nominally inferior to the prime ministers of the Han and Tang dynasties, the cabinet scholars of the Ming Dynasty were no more than the real prime ministers in terms of power, grade, and status.

One of the simplest proofs of this is that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty could not go to court for decades, while the country functioned normally. Throughout history, there is no other branch!

Li Qi proposed to restore the prime minister, which happened to poke Zhu Yuanzhang's sore spot.

In fact, what is fatal is not only the restoration of the phase, but also the prince's seizure of the heir he mentioned, which is also where Zhu Yuanzhang is entangled. In addition, Li Qi also said that he wanted to bring Suzhou under control, which also aroused Lao Zhu's uneasiness.

Back then, he fought with Zhang Shicheng in the dark, in case these hundreds of thousands of Suzhou people were coerced, the capital would no longer be safe.

It is not difficult to commit a capital crime, but it is difficult to commit a large number of capital crimes.

At present, there are at least four major crimes, all of which can kill the Li family's father and son.

First of all, it is to accumulate countless wealth and greed for tens of millions of taels.

Secondly, in the name of the money bank, he won the hearts of the people and plotted against him.

intervened in the struggle for imperial power and instigated the feelings of the prince.

Restore the phase, challenge the Son of Heaven, and go against the grain.

……

"Li Shanchang, I will kill him! Not only to kill him, but also to kill his minions, to kill the merchants of Suzhou, to kill those civil officials who have dealings with him, kill! Kill! Kill! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be crazy, kept waving his fists and roaring viciously.

He suddenly turned his head and stared at Liu Chun, "Are you kid willing to use me as a murderous knife?" ”

Liu Chun stood upright, and Lao Zhu asked again.

Suddenly, Liu Chun's knees went limp, and he fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that His Majesty is angry, but the minister has the courage to speculate that His Majesty did not immediately take down Li Qi, but returned to think about this matter. The minister thought that Li Qi was exaggerating, and his purpose was just to persuade Lord Huang, and then take refuge in the prince and save his life. As for the rest, it's just bragging, don't take it seriously! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to dare not recognize Liu Chun, and sneered: "Boy, you are excusing the rebellious ministers and thieves, aren't you afraid of my knife?" ”

"Afraid! Of course the minister is afraid, but it is precisely because of fear that the minister does not care about nonsense, in case there is a misunderstanding and the innocent is implicated, the minister will be implicated. ”

"Humph! Joke! Up and down the government and the opposition, there are not many people with a conscience, I have killed all the officials, maybe some have been wronged, but only half of them are killed, I can still do it! ”

Liu Chun subconsciously shuddered, don't think Lao Zhu is joking, he can do this kind of thing!

Just killing people may not really solve the problem.

And let so many people accompany the Li family father and son to the funeral, Liu Chun can't stand it.

"Your Majesty, I heard that there is a kind of punishment in the grassland, which is to strip people naked, tie them up in the field, and let mosquitoes suck blood. When one of the sons saw his father being punished by this, he ran to his father and drove away mosquitoes for his father, but his father soon died. The son was of course kind, but he drove away the well-fed mosquitoes, and a group of hungrier mosquitoes came, sucking blood even more unscrupulously. Therefore, under the protection of his son's efforts, the father died of excessive blood loss early, on the contrary, no one drove him, and the prisoner was crawling with well-fed mosquitoes, but there was a possibility of survival......"

Liu Chun told a story, and Lao Zhu thought about it a little and understood.

"You kid want to say, now those officials are full of mosquitoes, I killed them, and replaced them with a group of mosquitoes with suffocating stomachs, and they sucked the blood of the common people?"

Liu Chun bowed his head and acquiesced.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly jumped like thunder and began to curse again.

"Little rabbit cub, what do you think of the Ming Dynasty? What do you think of my world? Is it rats rampant, or are wolfdogs everywhere? My officials are blood-sucking mosquitoes, right? What is this monarch of mine? ”

began to scold himself again, Liu Chun suddenly had an urge to cry, he cried with joy, it seems that he has passed another life and death hurdle!

"Your Majesty is angry, the minister thinks that Li Shanchang's father and son are smart!"

"How?"

"Your Majesty, please think about it, they plan to accumulate power, sway the crown prince, unite the gentry, and restore the prime minister...... Although they are ambitious, their ambitions are based on Suzhou Qianzhuang, as long as they can abolish Suzhou Qianzhuang, all things can be easily solved, and His Majesty does not need to make a big move, he can gain the hearts of the people. I beg your majesty to think twice! ”
