Chapter 344: Incense lasts forever

Chapter 344 Incense continues forever

After Mao Xiang finished speaking, the hall suddenly fell silent. Even though Zhu Yuanzhang had been mentally prepared, his face was already gloomy. It is difficult for him to be an official in Beijing for an official position.

But this guy is the heir of the benefactor of the Zhu family. Two years ago, Zhu Yuanzhang named Liu Jizu as the Marquis of Yihui. After his wife, Lou, became Mrs. Hou, he even made a decree that every generation of emperors should treat Liu well. The family, the title will last forever with the country.

Although Liu Chun is not Yihuihou of the present age, but he is also a decent direct descendant of the Liu family. If he kills the Zhu family, he will be ungrateful. When Liu Chun dies, no one will care about the evil things he did before his death. The perpetrators will only grasp the point of being ungrateful and killing the blood of the benefactor to have a good time. As for the truth and the justice of the victims, who cares?

Mao Xiang also knew that the news he sent was troublesome, so he immediately fell to the ground and lowered his head and said, "The imperial envoy's letter will arrive in Beijing tomorrow. Do you want to arrange for Liu Chun to die unexpectedly?"

This is also a solution. After Liu Chun's accidental death, the imperial envoy will not say anything more. They also know that it is very difficult for the royal family to make such a concession. The court officials can only discuss it privately for a few days at most. If you have literary talent, write down a few strokes in your own book. After all, Yihuihou Liu Ying doesn't pursue it, who cares about his brother's death.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at his son. After all, it is not kingly to hide one's ears and steal one's bell. It also violates his determination to eradicate the government. If he wants to reverse the trend of corruption and tyranny, the only way to change the dignity of the officials is to expose the dripping bones and let the world Everyone knows that the imperial court has absolutely no tolerance for those who are corrupt and pervert the law!

Only in this way, when his son takes over in the future, can the world be governed by officials. Zhu Yuanzhang knows that he can do many things, but his son cannot. Only the generation of children and grandchildren can enjoy the country in peace.

On the other hand, if he wanted to be the perfect founder of the country, then his grandson would have to suffer. Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt that Liu Chun came at the right time. Now that such a person who is close to the royal family can die, it is also a big deal. good thing.

In particular, his identity is quite ingenious, even civil servants can be regarded as nobles, and he is about to expand the scope of eradicating corruption, including military generals. Open one eye and close one eye...

But, Mr. Liu, we Zhu Chongba will be sorry for you, but you don’t have to worry too much if you know the secret, the incense of the Liu family will not be broken, as long as Liu Ying does her duty, the hereditary title will be hereditary in the future, and you will be indispensable after all. Incense offering

Zhu Yuanzhang must have ordered: "We know, you immediately arrange someone to guard Liu Chun, we can't die until he arrives."

Mao Xiang immediately resigned as promised, and Zhu Biao naturally understood his father's plan: "Tomorrow the imperial envoy's pleadings will arrive in Beijing. Father intends to go to Cangyang to try the case in person?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "Didn't those people all say in private that Zhu Yuanzhang can **** out civil servants, but he won't easily touch these meritorious honors like them. We will show them a good experience this time."

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "Let's go, my minister. After all, Liu Jizu gave the land to bury the emperor's concubine, so it's not good for the father to judge Liu Chun himself. The minister went to enforce the law impartially, and cried a few more times when he was executed. That's it."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his son with relief and said: "You don't cry enough, it's justified for us to cry together. Even the name of ungrateful is unavoidable. Fortunately, Liu Ying was not the one who committed the crime, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with."

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "In this case, we have to send someone to Fengyang's hometown to invite Yihuihou and a few respected village elders, and the family law and clan regulations have to ask Liu Chun to be severely punished."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. This is inevitable. National laws and patriarchal rules are the rules of this world, and they are equally effective. Even in the countryside, there are only patriarchal rules and family laws but no national laws.

Father and son discussed for a while, Liu Chun was going to die, if Zhu Yuanzhang would have let him go a few years ago, but now there is no reason to turn back once the bureaucracy is purged, and the royal relatives will not escape the law.

Zhu Biao suddenly felt a little worried about his mother's family, and was about to send someone to beat him. The Ma family was considered rich in Xinfengli, Minzi Township, Suzhou, Guide Prefecture. There are many more.

After the founding of the country, my father wanted to find the queen's family members to distribute the official titles. The dignified queen's family still lives in the countryside and there is no official and half-ranked one. Lao Zhu probably just wants to give his wife a face and make her happy.

Zhu Biao still remembers that his mother was weaving cloth shoes and replied in a deep voice: "It's not good to be entrusted with Juelu and prefer the family of foreign relatives. They will serve as officials at the same court as the generals who fought **** battles without merit. What will happen to you in the future? Convincing the crowd? It is enough to give them some grain and cloth so that they can farm with peace of mind."

The father came back disappointed, while the mother was still busy with her work with her head down, but Zhu Biao saw a few tears falling on the shoe in Queen Ma's hand.

At that time, Zhu Biao knew that his mother didn't care about her relatives, but she was just considering the overall situation. Zhu Biao didn't say anything, but in the future, he would send a lot of food in the name of Queen Ma every year and festival.

Just as Zhu Biao was thinking, Lao Zhu got up and walked around quite agitatedly, deciding that Liu Chun was going to die, and he recalled more and more the embarrassment when he was a teenager. The corpses of his parents and brothers had no place to bury him, and he begged people to kowtow everywhere Ask someone to donate a suitable land for the family to rest in peace.

It was Liu Jizu who helped him when he couldn't ask for help, and he swore to repay him in the future, but now he wants to kill his benefactor's second son...

If there is nothing he can do, it's fine, but Liu Chun's life and death are in his mind.

Zhu Biao saw it, but he couldn't persuade him. He also knew that since his father had made a decision, it was impossible to change it, but the guilt in his heart was unavoidable.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the window and took a few breaths: "Biaoer, you promise father that the line of the Liu family will never be cut off in the future, and they must be peaceful and prosperous. Even if the direct line dies, the collateral line must be replaced. The title of Marquis Hui will be hereditary!"

Zhu Biao stood up and bowed and said: "The Liu family and my Zhu family have great kindness. My son will never let Hou Yihui cut off the incense, and the same will be true for future generations."

Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care about the promises he made after he became prosperous, but he couldn't let go of his experience when he was still Zhu Chongba, not to mention that Liu Jizu helped resettle his own parents.
