When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!

Chapter 11: One case, we killed for ten years? (Please collect it!)
Looking at the unconscious Zhu Biao, Empress Ma couldn't help but ask, "Why did Zhu Biao fall into a coma?"

"It's probably low blood sugar. Your Majesty, please don't ask, or you'll have to trouble the imperial physician to make another trip!"

Queen Ma has always behaved very virtuous.

Make Zhu Ming feel good.

Unlike those two father and son, shouting and yelling for fighting and killing!

After all this trouble, it was already dark!
Zhu Ming couldn't help but ask, "Old Zhu, Madam, where should I stay tonight?"

"You can live wherever you like. I get angry when I see you!"

Zhu Ming could only turn his attention to Queen Ma.

Empress Ma called a maid and said, "Go and arrange for the young master to stay in a good room. Don't lose the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Slave, you obey!"

On the way, Zhu Ming asked curiously, "Yuzhu, isn't it said that the palace doesn't allow outsiders to stay overnight?"

Yuzhu shook her head: "No, sometimes some ministers are busy until very late and stay in the palace overnight. As long as they don't go to the harem, there will be no problem!"

"I see!"

the next day.

Zhu Ming was sleeping soundly.

It felt like a kick in the ass.

"Fuck! That bastard kicked me. He didn't know that disturbing someone's sleep is equivalent to stealing money and killing them!"

"How dare you insult His Majesty!"

"Mao Xiang, back off!"

When I opened my eyes, I saw Lao Zhu standing beside me with a sullen face.

And the guard I met yesterday, his face was full of anger!

Looks like he's ready to draw his sword at any moment.

"Old Zhu, are you sick? Can't you see I'm sleeping soundly?"

"You kid, don't you see what time it is? In the Ming Dynasty, we have never seen such a lazy person!" Old Zhu gritted his teeth and kicked again!
"I am not a commoner of your Ming Dynasty. So, shouldn't you be attending court now?"

"Thanks to you, we don't have to go to court today!"

Get everyone else out.

Old Zhu's face was solemn: "My sister was there yesterday, and I was afraid that she would faint, so I didn't dare to ask how our eldest grandson died!"

"It seems he was infected with smallpox!"

"Smallpox?" Old Zhu's face showed some fear.

Smallpox is highly contagious.

Basically every time it will cause large-scale infection!
Once infected, life or death is determined by fate!

"Don't worry, when the time comes, go get a vaccination from me and you won't get smallpox!"

"What is a vaccine? Why can't we get smallpox if we use it?" Lao Zhu was a little confused.

Can smallpox be solved in this way?

Zhu Ming was stunned. This train of thought was indeed amazing. "I can't explain it clearly for a while. I'll let Baidu tell you when the time comes!"

"It seems that you are also an uneducated and unlearned dandy. Hurry up and find us the Baidu you mentioned!"

"Let's wait for a while."

In order to prevent Zhu Ming from continuing to report the death.

This time, Old Zhu said directly: "After me, who will be the next emperor? It's neither the crown prince nor Xiong Ying. I thought about it all night and still couldn't figure it out!"

"The next emperor will be your grandson, Zhu Yunwen!"

"It turns out to be him!"

Old Zhu lowered his head in thought.

Zhu Biao's original wife is gone, and now Lu has become his main wife!

If Zhu Biao and Xiong Ying are really gone.

Zhu Yunwen naturally became the eldest grandson, and the possibility of him inheriting the throne was indeed quite high.

Old Zhu also thought about it last night, but Zhu Yunwen was still too young at that time.

This thought just flashed through my mind!
Zhu Xiongying died and Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne.

Old Zhu's face suddenly turned pale!

Thinking of a terrible thing! A murderous intent emerged from my body.

Zhu Ming felt that the temperature around him had dropped a lot!

He gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "Our eldest grandson really died of smallpox!"

“That’s exactly what’s recorded.”

Seeing Lao Zhu remained silent.

Zhu Ming couldn't help but ask, "You don't suspect that the Crown Princess did it, do you?"

"Shouldn't we be so suspicious?" Old Zhu's voice was extremely sinister!

"There are indeed such suspicions on the Internet, but I think it is unlikely!"

"why?"

“If it was really done by the Lu family, there is no way Zhu Yuanzhang in history would not have been able to find out!
Do you really think the Jinyiwei are just decorations?

If something like this happened, the historical Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely investigate it thoroughly, especially Lu, he might even be able to find out the posture when she was born!
But he is alive and well, so it must be Old Zhu who made sure that this matter had nothing to do with the Lu family.

Otherwise, Lu would have been chopped to pieces long ago!

Maybe, it's not the four major cases of Hongwu, but the five major cases of Hongwu!"

Upon hearing this, Old Zhu's expression eased a lot and the murderous intent emanating from him subsided.

Since Lu was not killed in history, it is estimated that this matter really has nothing to do with Lu!

As for the fact that Lu could hide it from him, Lao Zhu felt that it was simply impossible!
If a woman could hide this from me and kill my great grandson!
Old Zhu felt that he didn’t want to be the emperor anymore!

"What are those Jinyiwei and the four major cases of Hongwu that you just mentioned?"

"The Imperial Guard was established in the 15th year of the Hongwu reign. Its predecessor was the 'Gongwei Division'. It was considered the emperor's eyes and ears. The lives of all officials, from civil and military officials to ordinary people, were all within the scope of the Imperial Guard's investigation and supervision. They were able to directly arrest and interrogate criminals."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

So this is the Jinyiwei.

After becoming emperor, his mentality changed.

There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me!
They don't trust officials very much and think everyone is a corrupt official.

"Jinyiwei, that's right. We just want to set up such an organization to keep an eye on those officials to prevent them from taking bribes and bullying the people!"

"Ding, witness the change in the founding time of Jinyiwei, and be rewarded with 3 witness points!"

Zhu Ming was stunned. It seemed that the Jinyiwei, who were originally supposed to wait for two years, would show up earlier!

"Now we know what the Imperial Guard is. Tell us about the four major cases of the Hongwu reign. What are they? Did any major cases happen when we were emperors?"

Lao Zhu was a little curious.

They can be called the four major cases.

It’s definitely not a small case!
Immediately, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Hu Weiyong.

I guess this case will have a significant impact!
After all, he is the prime minister of the current dynasty, and now he is imprisoned in prison.

"The four major cases of the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty: the Hu Weiyong case, the empty seal case, the Guo Huan case and the Lan Yu case!"

Old Zhu frowned, as expected there was the Hu Weiyong case.

I have no impression of the other three cases.

Guess it hasn’t happened yet!
"What crime did we finally use to kill Hu Weiyong?"

In order to arrest Hu Weiyong, Zhu Yuanzhang had been considering what crime to use.

As the prime minister, you still have to come up with enough evidence to kill people without any scruples!
As for not killing, Lao Zhu had never thought about it!
"Hu Weiyong was executed on charges of treason and conspiracy."

"Rebellion?" Old Zhu nodded. It was indeed a good charge!

"After all, he was a prime minister. Forming cliques, excluding dissidents, and being arbitrary and dictatorial, etc., are not as straightforward and thorough as rebelling! As for whether he rebelled or not, there are still disputes hundreds of years later. Anyway, the main crime is rebellion!

Later, the position of prime minister was abolished.

Hu Weiyong also became the last prime minister in Chinese history!
The Hu Weiyong case involved a wide range of people and lasted for more than ten years. In total, more than 30,000 people were killed, including Li Shanchang, the first civil official of the founding of the country.

Zhu Ming briefly talked about the Hu Weiyong case.

I heard that the Hu Weiyong case lasted for more than ten years and more than 30,000 people were killed.

Lao Zhu was confused.

It lasted so long and killed so many people!

How did Hu Weiyong offend us?
