Chapter 35

Zhu Yuanzhang's question made Hu Weiyong not know how to answer for a moment. He was sweating profusely and kept swallowing his spit from nervousness. His eyes were swaying, and he did not dare to look at Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes head-on, "I am loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and I have no other intentions."

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately lengthened his voice and wrote his doubts on his face, "Guangyang, can what Hu Weiyong said be true?"

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang asking Wang Guangyang, Hu Weiyong was very nervous. He understood that as long as Wang Guangyang betrayed him, his life would probably end.

"What he said is naturally false. I report to Your Majesty. Actually, I didn't plan to accuse Hu Weiyong at the beginning, and I was not afraid of whether Your Majesty would punish me. I only have this life. After living for so long, I should know how to repay kindness. However, for the sake of my descendants and descendants, I still chose to stand on the side of the Ming Dynasty. Hu Weiyong is not that I want to be ungrateful, but I don't want my descendants to bear the reputation of Qin Hui." Wang Guangyang pondered for a moment, and he spoke to Zhu Yuanzhang first, and then looked at Hu Weiyong with mixed feelings.

Hu Weiyong looked at Wang Guangyang's eyes and immediately realized that Wang Guangyang would definitely not be on his side. He also understood how outrageous what he had done at this moment. His rebellious party was about to form a small court, and one day he might be able to compete with the court of the Ming Dynasty.

"Brother Hu, I, Wang Guangyang, admit that you have given me a lot of help on my way to becoming prime minister, but there is no way. What you did is really hard for me to understand. Is the benefits of the title of marquis and titles given to you by Your Majesty is not enough? Why choose to be a rebel? In prison, Hu Pengju escaped must be your action, right?" Wang Guangyang's eyes were firm, and even said in front of Zhu Yuanzhang that if there was a lie, he would be killed without mercy.

Wang Guangyang's determination made Hu Weiyong feel heartbroken. He didn't expect that the other party's wife and concubines were all found for him, and ended up like this. Hu Weiyong was wise and cautious all his life, and was betrayed by his family twice.

"If the Prime Minister thinks that the testimony of the Right Prime Minister is not rigorous enough, we can ask the Censor Zhongcheng to come and confront him." Ma Sanbao said. He was asked to supervise the Censor Zhongcheng before, but now, he can call the Censor Zhongcheng to the court to see who the Censor Zhongcheng is.

In historical records, there are very few records of the Censor General Shang Han. Ma Sanbao did not understand Shang Han's character. Now it is also a good time to know the Censor General Zhong Cheng. If the other party is as honest and honest as Wang Guangyang said, he might still be one of his future backers in the political arena.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded, and he understood Ma Sanbao's thoughts. This little guy must have wanted to meet the Chief Censor, but as the current emperor, could he still refuse? In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, Ma Sanbao was just an eight-year-old child. When Zhu Yuanzhang was eight years old, he still lived this poor life in his hometown. How could he know how deep Ma Sanbao's thoughts were?

Hu Weiyong hated Ma Sanbao and gritted his teeth. Although he was deceived by Ma Sanbao's petite appearance, Hu Weiyong felt that the child in front of him was particularly deep and could not be treated as an ordinary child. Even a genius could not compare to Ma Sanbao. Ma Sanbao was delicate, even Zhu Di, who was in his early twenties, could not compare to him. However, Hu Weiyong discovered it too late. He originally thought that Ma Sanbao was just a little clever, but unexpectedly, he forced himself into danger.

Without Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, Eunuch Wang left the bedroom very consciously. As the eunuch who had been taking care of Zhu Yuanzhang for the longest time, although Eunuch Wang could not accurately understand Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts, he could still know a lot. He understood that Zhu Yuanzhang agreed with Ma Sanbao's request, so he went to the residence of the Censor Shang Hao to find Shang Hao's traces.

Seeing the increase in the number of witnesses in front of him, Hu Weiyong was so angry that he never thought that Hu Pengju was robbed and hit the gun. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to order Ma Sanbao to contact the Censor General to learn about his rebellion. He happened to meet the news that Hu Pengju was robbed. The coincidence happened so suddenly, which saved Ma Sanbao time for investigation and supervision. As long as the witness evidence was enough, Hu Weiyong could be charged with treason.

Hu Weiyong was nervous. He was used to big scenes but had never seen his own trial ceremony. There were many people who tried him now, including the right prime minister Wang Guangyang, the current saint Zhu Yuanzhang, and the censor Shang Hao, who was about to be found by the prince, and Wei Ze, the Minister of Justice. If it was heard by the people, it would definitely become a topic of conversation after dinner. The trial of Prime Minister Hu Weiyong actually requires so many giants to participate, which shows the court's importance to Hu Weiyong.

"Father, why don't you petition me to come with Tu Jie and Chen Ning, the two thieves, so as not to have too many nights and dreams, and run away after hearing the news of Hu Weiyong." Zhu Di spoke at Ma Sanbao's gesture. Before looking for Hu Weiyong, Ma Sanbao told him a lot of plans. Zhu Di's mind was also enlightened. He memorized Ma Sanbao's advice to him in his heart. This was a good opportunity to establish an image in his father's heart. Although Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang were usually very close, there was still a gap between the father and son. Zhu Yuanzhang did not fully trust his biological descendants except Zhu Biao, especially the third prince Zhu Qi, the prince who often physically punished others.

"You are quite attentive. Just so Hu Weiyong refused to say that the more witnesses come, he will naturally call him. Hu Weiyong, Hu Weiyong, do you think you have been cautious all your life, but you don't know that your every move is under my supervision. Is my censor all in vain? It's just that there is no evidence. Although I am the emperor, it's not easy to order the execution of the prime minister in public to avoid quarrels and make the people panic." Zhu Yuanzhang first sent Zhu Di to find someone, and then said to Hu Weiyong with a smile. Hu Weiyong looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's smile and felt shudder. He understood that Zhu Yuanzhang hid his knife in his smile.

At the moment, the tea is not poisonous, but Hu Weiyong felt that the most painful poison in the world was filled with the most painful poison in the world. He was afraid that the money he had exposed was retribution for himself after his own son escaped from prison. He didn't know who to hate for a moment. He wanted to hate the third prince Zhu Qi for not doing things well. After killing all the prison guards, he had not found Wang Guangyang, who was also in prison. He also hated that he had been obsessed with the ghosts and had done such a rebellious act.

If he covers up his servants and privately takes over the country's wealth, perhaps Zhu Yuanzhang would turn a blind eye to Hu Weiyong. After all, Hu Weiyong was a founding hero. However, if he had a disagreement towards the Ming Dynasty, he even raised his own army, so Zhu Yuanzhang would not be able to sit still. What he hated the most was that the country he had captured was taken away by outsiders.

The speed of the king and Zhu Di was extremely fast, which could be said to be a terrible skill. However, after a cup of tea, Tu Jie and Chen Ning and the censor Shang Hao were found. The three people who were found had their own different abacus. Shang Hao, the censor, respectfully bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang, while Chen Ning's eyes were erratic, and even the respectful words were incoherent.

"Hu Weiyong, you are here too. The prince said he had summoned me before, and what else was I thinking about? When I saw Brother Wang, I understood the intention. You, what you did was so amazing. Why did you choose to rebel against the Ming Dynasty?" Shang Hao and Wang Guangyang were about the same age. Ma Sanbao's first reaction when he saw Shang Hao was that he felt that this person was upright. His clear eyes and respect for Zhu Yuanzhang were enough to show that this prime minister was different from Zhu Yuanzhang. He had no ambitions and was absolutely loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, I have always wanted to tell you something in my heart. I think I am not worthy of being the Chief Censor. In my early years, I believed Hu Weiyong's slander and joined his rebel party, but Your Majesty soon I had nothing to do with the rebel party. During that period, Hu Weiyong in the court and the country made things difficult for me, and even my parents and children died of Hu Weiyong's hands. However, we are all prime ministers, and I can't find a chance to take revenge." Every word that Shang Hao said made Hu Weiyong frightened. He thought he had done extremely perfectly, and what he did was to silence Shang Hao's parent-child affairs. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was just an ordinary car accident, and he actually caught clues for Shang Hao.

"But is this? Shang Hao, the coachman who hit your parent-child has been executed for many years and has no evidence of death. Where can I remember it?" Zhu Yuanzhang spoke. He still remembered Shang Hao's incident. However, at that time he just handed it over to the Ministry of Justice as an ordinary case and did not fully investigate it. He did not expect that this matter would be so secret.

"I didn't know at first that I was guilty. I used my relationship to find the officials of the Censorate and investigated the coachman's life experience. Among them, the coachman and Hu Pengju were old acquaintances, and they earned thousands of taels of silver for no reason. It was extremely strange at this time. I followed the clues and found the Prime Minister to make the decision behind it. Among them, Chen Ning Tu Jie also participated, and I could confront the two of them." Shang Hao spoke, mentioning the deceased parent-child, his eyes were red, and his words were filled with anger.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, don't swear. We know that you are highly respected, but this is Your Majesty's bedroom. Don't just talk about anything. We must pay attention to evidence." Chen Ning and Tu Jie and his two hearts were beaten faster, and they were extremely guilty. After secretly glanced at Hu Weiyong and Zhu Yuanzhang, they quickly resisted, and even thought about how to get rid of their relationship with Prime Minister Hu Weiyong. "Prime Minister, Hu Weiyong instigated us to oppress us as prime minister. I had no choice but to do something wrong. You don't remember the villain's fault. The prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach. Let us go."

"It's unreasonable. It's nonsense. What does this matter have to do with me? Your Majesty, Hu Weiyong is innocent. Shang Hao, Wang Guangyang, Chen Ning, Tu Jie, I think I am waiting for you on weekdays, but I bite you back now. Your Majesty, Hu Weiyong is willing to prove my innocence by death." Before Shang Hao could speak, Hu Weiyong pointed at Chen Ning Tu Jie and said furiously.
