After the farce in the Prince's Mansion, Chen Yunfu didn't dare to look up at Zhu Biao for more than a month. Every time he saw him, he carefully stayed away from him.

"Now I know I regret it."

One time when he went to court, Zhu Biao blocked Chen Yunfu and scolded him angrily: "Let's see if you dare to drink so much next time. Fortunately, my father went to Fengyang for a visit this time. If my father was in court, look.

I won’t punish you severely.”

"Yes, yes, I know I made a mistake, and I won't dare to make it again."

"You and Lan Yu, you two can't save us any worries. Fortunately, my father replied to the letter a few days ago, saying that he will be back in the next two days. Let's see if you two dare to make such a mistake."

Seeing that Chen Yunfu had a good attitude in admitting his mistake, Zhu Biao didn't want to worry about it anymore and waved Chen Yunfu away.

The latter was startled for a moment, then hurriedly left the palace. Instead of rushing back home, he went to the General Affairs Office first.

"Have the Imperial Secretary delivered any news to the capital in recent days? Have you ever told us when His Majesty will return to the capital?"

"No."

No?

Is Zhu Biao trying to trick himself?

How is it possible? Zhu Yuanzhang could not hide such a big thing from anyone but Zhu Biao.

That can only mean one thing.

When Zhu Yuanzhang returned to Beijing this time, he did not want to communicate with the officials in Beijing at all.

"Zhu Biao said that Zhu Yuanzhang said he would come back a few days ago. From Jinling to Fengyang, if the journey is faster, we should reach Jinling by now!"

Even if the large number of people accompanying Zhu Yuanzhang's holy chariot delay his journey, he can still make it back to Jinling tomorrow afternoon at most.

"It's too late."

Chen Yunfu was shocked, but he left the General Affairs Office with an expressionless face, only looking at Hu Sizong in confusion.

I was also surprised in my heart.

"Didn't His Majesty the Emperor just go to Fengyang? It's been more than a month since he said anything about coming back?"

"Master Hou, where are we going?"

Wei San held the reins and was very surprised when he saw no movement from Chen Yunfu for a long time.

The Marquis of my family has always been a very assertive person, and he has never gotten into the car without knowing where he is going like today.

Is it true that, as rumor has it, he was drunk last month and affected his always smart brain?

"Go to Liang...forget it, go home!"

As soon as he finished speaking and went home, Chen Yunfu called to Wei San again, raised the curtains of the carriage, jumped off the carriage without waiting for Wei San to bring a stool, and walked into the General Affairs Office again.

Hu Sizong was very surprised when he saw Chen Yunfu coming back, but he still bowed to him.

"Master Hou?"

"Have all the memorials from the Fifth Army Commander's Office been delivered these days?"

"They've all been delivered. Do you want today's or..."

"Bring them all."

"Yes, I will get it for the Marquis right now."

Although Hu Sizong didn't know what it was about, hadn't Chen Yunfu read the memorial several times a few days ago, so why did he still read it?

Furthermore, why is Chen Yunfu so concerned about the memorial to the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army these days?

Although he didn't understand, Hu Sizong still rushed to pick up hundreds of copies.

"You go out first."

Chen Yunfu dismissed Hu Sizong, sat behind the case and began to read through the books.

In fact, Chen Yunfu has read these memorials several times in recent days, but he still insists on reading them. If he doesn't read them, he will always feel uneasy.

"No, still not."

Chen Yunfu looked through all the latest memorials but couldn't find it, and sweat broke out on his forehead in a hurry.

"It's impossible not to."

"If not, how could Zhu Yuanzhang come back from Fengyang so quickly? Could it be that history is wrong?"

"wrong!"

"History was not wrong, it was my own thinking that was wrong. How could something that is simply unrealistic happen?"

"If the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion doesn't exist, then it has to be."

"The Metropolitan Procuratorate!"

Chen Yunfu stood up and even overturned the note in front of him. The memorial was covered all over the floor in an instant. However, at this time, Chen Yunfu was not in the mood to clean up. He left his own independent official hall and said that he was guarding the place. Zhao Qiandao, who has experience in the department.

"Go and clean up my house."

"yes."

Boarding Wei San's carriage again, this time Chen Yunfu had a clear destination.

"Go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"

"Is it the Yushitai inside the Imperial City or the one outside the Imperial City?"

"Outside the Imperial City."

Wei San didn't ask any more questions, whipped his horse and drove up to the carriage. When he arrived, he quickly got out of the car and set up a low stool.

There were several petty officials standing outside the Metropolitan Procuratorate. They didn't recognize Chen Yunfu at first, but when they saw that the latter was wearing a third-grade official robe, they didn't dare to stop him and lowered their heads to let him go.

Chen Yunfu entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate but didn't go anywhere. He went straight into the Experience Department.

At this moment, the head of the Experience Department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is still an acquaintance of Chen Yunfu who was reporting here.

Chen Xinli.

Chen Xinli was enjoying tea and reading newspapers leisurely at this moment. This was a habit he had developed in the nursing home. At this moment, he was also brought into the experience department. He was fascinated by what he was reading when he suddenly raised his head when the sun dimmed, and met Chen Yun. Just their eyes met.

Normally, old friends would be extremely enthusiastic when meeting each other, but Chen Xinli didn't have the courage. As soon as he saw Chen Yunfu, he jumped up and bowed his waist without even thinking.

"The lower official Chen Xinli visited Wu Zhonghou and asked about the Marquis Jin An."

Why are we still chatting? In just four years, the two identities have become worlds apart. Chen Xinli was so brave that he did not dare to greet Chen Yunfu in front of him.

It's just that a group of clerks in the department who didn't know what was going on were secretly surprised.

Wu Zhonghou?

Is this the very popular Chen Yunfu?

So young!

Chen Yunfu didn't talk too much to Chen Xinli and sat down directly on the seat belonging to Chen Xinli, his eyes glaring directly at the latter.

"Have the Metropolitan Procuratorate ever received any impeachment in these days?"

"Returning to the Marquis, isn't our Procuratorate responsible for collecting impeachment charges? There have been a lot of charges these days. You are referring to..."

"Is there a copy of the memorial to impeach the Governor-General of the Fifth Army?"

"Yes." Chen Xinli said without thinking: "There are thirty-seven books in total, and they are..."

"Get them all, oh yes, get them together with the recent impeachment memorials related to Zhili."

What happened?

Chen Xinli was beating the drum in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly went to do it, and soon got hundreds of memorials.

Chen Yunfu looked through them one by one, and his expression was unwavering. It wasn't until he finished reading the last book that Chen Yunfu nodded and stood up.

"Okay, hard work has been done."

"It's not hard, it's not hard, it should be."

Chen Xinli hurriedly sent Chen Yunfu away and followed him obediently without daring to speak.

How much he wanted to exchange pleasantries with Chen Yunfu and reminisce about old friendships.

Perhaps it was careless and Chen Yunfu could help him out because he missed his old love, and he would be very successful.

"I came here today because I saw profiteers in Suzhou driving up the prices of cloth and grain. The prefect of Suzhou, Liu Zuyi, turned a blind eye and let it go. So far, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has not received any impeachment. All the officials in Suzhou are blind and mute."

Chen Xinli couldn't keep up with Chen Yunfu's out-of-the-box thinking and words, but he still spoke quickly and followed the words.

"Yes, this move by the Suzhou Prefecture is really abominable. Your subordinates must report it to the Supervisory Censor. This year, the Beijing Inspectorate will strictly investigate the situation in Suzhou."

"Um."

Chen Yunfu reached out and patted Chen Xinli's shoulder twice: "Do it well."

The latter felt as if his whole body was floating, and he bowed repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, you must remember the Lord Marquis's instructions, Lord Marquis, and walk slowly."

Chen Yunfu then boarded the carriage.

"go home!"

Wei San spurred his horse and galloped away immediately.

Chen Xinli, who was left in the dust, had a silly smile on his face.

Wu Zhonghou asked himself to work hard, in order to promote himself!

I didn’t expect that I, old Chen, would be able to repay his old age with such a thick leg and rejuvenate his career?
