Two hundred and twentieth nine chapters do something
In the East Warehouse Pavilion, Lao Zhu stood there with a gloomy face. Zhu Biao next to him had a complicated expression and his eyes were also entangled. As for Princess Pucheng, he was sobbing quietly with his sleeves covering his face, and his crying was filled with endless grievances. However, Li Jie always felt that her crying was a bit fake.
"See Your Majesty!" Li Jie stepped forward and saluted Lao Zhu. Looking at the situation in the room, he could guess it.
"Is the experience between Princess Qin and Pu Cheng real?" Old Zhu seemed so angry that he asked Li Jie directly. In fact, Zhu Biao had already sent someone to report what Zhu Cheng did to his wife and daughter. However, Old Zhu was angry at that time, after all, he had not seen the victim with his own eyes. Now, Princess Pu Cheng cried in front of Old Zhu, and directly raised Lao Zhu's anger again.
"It's true!" Li Jie replied seriously. When he was speaking, he secretly touched a document in his sleeve. It was the ten major crimes written by the magistrate Li of County when he was in Chang'an County. Zhu Biao refused to accept it, but Li Jie took it for him. He thought he might use it today, so he took it with him.
"A evil beast!" Old Zhu was so angry that he shocked some of the memorials on the desk.
"Grandpa Emperor, granddaughter doesn't ask for anything else, just ask the emperor to let our mother and daughter live in the capital. I... I really don't dare to go back to Xi'an, otherwise my father will definitely beat me to death!" Princess Pucheng fell to Lao Zhu with accurate timing and begged, her eyes were already red with tears, and her little face was full of tears. Li Jie wondered if she had something like onion, ginger and the like in her hand.
Lao Zhu may be heartbroken to outsiders, but he is still very soft-hearted to his family. Now he heard his granddaughter's pitiful words, and he was even more furious. He immediately asked someone to help Pucheng up first, and then said to Zhu Biao: "When will the Princess Qin arrive in the capital?"
"It may be after the New Year. After all, it was later to let her go." Zhu Biao replied immediately. When they changed their route from Peking Prefecture, they also sent someone to Kaifeng to inform Zhu Youdun, asking him to send someone to send Princess Qin back to the capital, and they are still on the way.
"Come here! I'll draw an order! I'll call me back like this!" Old Zhu immediately ordered again, knowing that the Princess Qin was a marriage he had personally decided on, but Zhu Ci actually abused Princess Qin so much, and he simply didn't take him seriously, as a father.
"Don't calm down. My second brother did something wrong this time. Don't be angry because of it!" Zhu Biao stepped forward again and persuaded.
Lao Zhu also took a few breaths at this time, as if he had calmed down his mood, and then asked Zhu Biao again: "Have you ever done anything else besides the family matters?"
Zhu Biao also showed a confused look when he heard this. Li Jie also looked at him at this time, and at the same time he also clenched Zhu Chuang's crime in his hand. As long as Zhu Biao nodded, he immediately handed over the crime.
However, Zhu Biao finally disappointed Li Jie. He still couldn't let go of his brotherly affection with Zhu Chuang. Finally, he shook his head with a blank expression and said, "My son was too angry with his second brother's family at that time, so he didn't care about anything else!"
Li Jie immediately looked up at Zhu Biao when he heard this, but Zhu Biao lowered his head in shame and did not dare to look at him at all. In fact, he could also feel his conflicted mentality from Zhu Biao's words. After all, he only said that he didn't know, but did not say that Zhu Chuang had not committed other crimes.
Li Jie was very disappointed with Zhu Biao's performance, but from Zhu Biao's previous performance, he had already prepared for a long time, so he took a long breath and walked forward. A real man did something but did not. Some things involved principles. If he did not stand up at this time, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.
However, just as Li Jie was about to take a step, he suddenly felt that his sleeve was being pulled. When he turned his head to look, he found that the person who was holding him was Princess Pucheng. She didn't know when she walked to Li Jie, and she seemed to know what Li Jie was going to do. She immediately gave Li Jie a wink and then looked in the direction of Lao Zhu.
Li Jie followed Princess Pucheng's gaze, but when Lao Zhu heard Zhu Biao say that he didn't know if Zhu Chuang had committed other crimes, he still had anger on his face, but there was a little more relief in his eyes, as if he was quite satisfied with Zhu Biao's answer.
Now Li Jie suddenly realized that with the Jinyiwei's ability to be omnipresent, how could Lao Zhu not know about the crimes that Zhu Ceng committed in Xi'an?
Zhu Biao is protecting Zhu Chuang now, although he is favoritism, but in the eyes of Lao Zhu, the father, it is the elder brother's love for his younger brother. The sons can maintain harmony, which is of course a gratifying thing for a father.
In addition, Lao Zhu is a person who is extremely protective of his own son, especially for his son. When King Lu made a mistake, Lao Zhu was reluctant to punish him, so he ordered Princess Lu to be executed and guilty. You must know that Princess Lu is the daughter of his old brother Tang He, but Lao Zhu still did not give any face. So even if Zhu Win committed a crime, Lao Zhu would still protect him in his heart.
Thinking of this, Li Jie also showed a hesitant expression, and looked at Princess Pucheng again. He shook his head in the other direction, and at the same time he only spoke without making a sound and said a word. It can be judged from her lip shape that she was talking about the three words "don't go".
However, Li Jie showed a resolute smile, then gently broke free from Princess Pucheng's hand, stepped forward to Zhu Yuanzhang with a look of relief and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have the right to report!"
"Li Jie, you..." Zhu Biao had a premonition when he saw Li Jie's expression and immediately wanted to stop him, but as soon as he said that, he didn't know what to say, and a tangled look appeared on his face again.
As for Princess Pucheng behind Li Jie, she also looked at Li Jie's back with a complicated look on her face. After getting along the way, she thought she had already known Li Jie very much, but now she realized that her understanding of Li Jie might only be on the surface.
"What do you have to report?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know what Li Jie was thinking, and thought he had something else, so he asked with a smile.
"I want to participate in the report that the King of Qin is arrogant and illegal, and is ridiculous, which has led to the displacement of countless people and the people of Xi'an are full of resentment!" Li Jie stood up straight and said to Lao Zhu again with a righteous look on his face.
Unprepared Lao Zhu sat up straight when he heard this. Even Zhu Biao did not rely on Zhu Chuang's statement. However, he did not expect that Li Jie would stand up at this time and even sue a prince. This was something Lao Zhu never expected.
However, after being shocked, Lao Zhu's face became gloomy again, and his eyes were staring at Li Jie like a knife. After a while, a few words were squeezed out from his mouth and said, "You are sure to sue the King of Qin!"
Li Jie certainly heard the threatening intention in Lao Zhu's words, but he was not afraid at all. He immediately took out the crime in his sleeve and read aloud: "I want to sue the King of Qin for ten major crimes. The first crime is to deceive the king. His Majesty ordered the King of Qin to stop the construction of the royal palace and other projects, but the King of Qin did not listen at all, but instead made a large-scale construction. The second crime: slandering human lives. According to my investigation, there were 376 people who died directly in the Qin palace in the past ten years, and the lives that were indirectly killed by the Qin palace could not be counted..."
However, as soon as Li Jie said two of Zhu Chuang's crimes, Lao Zhu was already angry and grabbed the paperweight on the table and smashed it at Li Jie. This scared Zhu Biao to stop him, and Princess Pucheng screamed even more.
However, Lao Zhu, who usually wins every opportunity, failed this time. The paperweight flew over Li Jie's shoulder with a cold wind, and hit the pillar behind with a "bang~", and the jade paperweight was immediately smashed to pieces.
Li Jie felt that the paperweight was almost flew over to his head, and he was so scared that he had a cold sweat. But even so, Li Jie still did not stop, but continued to read: "...The third crime: the crime was usurpation, the King of Qin ordered people to make a dragon robe, a phoenix crown and a red robe..."
After counting one by one, almost all Zhu Ceng's actions were removed. Many of them were beheaded. Not to mention anything else, just his privately-made dragon robe and phoenix crown was enough to make Lao Zhu chop his head. After all, a prince actually wore a dragon robe. What is this not a rebellion?
The older Mr. Zhu also became more and more angry. Not only was he angry that Li Jie was so ignorant, but he actually shook off all the things his son committed. He was even more angry that Zhu Ren was so bold that he committed so many crimes on his back. If this was spread, his father-like face would be lost!
Finally, Li Jie finally finished reciting the ten crimes, and then presented them to Zhu Yuanzhang with both hands and said, "Your Majesty, these ten crimes were committed by the King of Qin, and the evidence is conclusive. Your Majesty knows everything after investigation, and asks Your Majesty to uphold justice for the court and the people of Xi'an!"
"Okay! What a Jing Hai Bo! Are you not afraid that I will arrest you and ask you for the crime of alienating the royal family affection?" Lao Zhu's chest was so angry that his chest was fluctuating violently, and blue veins on his forehead swelled. Anyone who knew him knew that this was the prelude to Lao Zhu's attempt to kill someone.
"I am just doing my duty!" Li Jie stood up and said again. Of course he knew that doing so would anger Lao Zhu, but he didn't want to regret it for the rest of his life.
Facing the upright Li Jie, Lao Zhu was also angry. Although he hated Zhu Rong for being unscrupulous, he was even more angry with Li Jie. He gave Li Jie a chance just now. If he shut up tactfully, it would be good for everyone, but this kid suddenly became a stubborn person, which made him unable to get out of Taiwan, which made Lao Zhu concentrate all his anger on Li Jie.
Looking at Li Jie and Zhu Yuanzhang in confrontation, Zhu Biao next to him was also anxious. He wanted to go forward to persuade him, but he didn't know how to speak. However, at this moment, Zhu Biao suddenly felt a piercing pain in his chest. Then he felt his eyes turn dark and his body suddenly fell forward.
