Hu Mansion.

forecourt.

The appearance of Prince Zhu Biao broke Hu Fei's dilemma and disrupted Xu Da's plan.

"Your Highness, this is unfair!"

Seeing that he was arrested, Hu Fei said with a bitter look on his face, but his heart was filled with gratitude.

"Whether it is unjust or not, I will decide for myself! It is not your turn to intervene!"

"Take him back to the East Palace and wait for disposal!"

Zhu Biao snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

"yes!"

Xiao Qi agreed, and then led someone to escort Hu Fei away.

But at this moment, Xu Da spoke again!

"Wait a moment!"

Seeing that Hu Fei was about to be taken away, Xu Da suddenly said loudly.

After the words fell, more than a hundred soldiers from the government once again surrounded the courtyard and stopped Xiao Qi.

"Wei Guogong! What do you want to do?!"

Zhu Biao frowned, turned to stare at Xu Da, and asked in a deep voice.

"Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince, it is a small matter that Hu Fei beat me, but his killing in public cannot be tolerated. Since he killed soldiers, he should be punished according to military law. It is safer to leave it to the minor ministers, or

Your Highness, please don’t bother."

Xu Da cupped his hands and said respectfully to Zhu Biao.

However, although he behaved respectfully, he refused to give in at all in his words. He seemed determined to capture Hu Fei today.

"You don't believe that I will deal with it fairly?!"

Zhu Biao frowned, looked at Xu Da, and asked in a deep voice.

"Wei Chen doesn't dare, because Hu Fei has always been cunning and treacherous. Wei Chen is worried that he will use strong words to quarrel with His Highness. However, if he is in front of military law, he will not dare to make a mistake, so it is safest for Wei Chen to handle it. I also hope that Your Highness will

Approved."

Xu Da bowed and said respectfully.

"Then what if I have to take him away today?"

Zhu Biao's face darkened, he looked at Xu Da, and asked word for word, showing a trace of majesty that could not be refused.

"If His Highness wants to take him away by force, Wei Chen will naturally not dare to stop him. However, this matter is of great importance. Wei Chen can only bring the matter to the palace as soon as possible to report it to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to make a decision."

Xu Dagong raised his hands and spoke loudly.

"Use your father to suppress me?!"

Zhu Biao frowned and asked sternly with dissatisfaction.

He had already heard that Xu Da was threatening. If he wanted to protect Hu Fei, Xu Da would definitely complain in front of his father!

"Wei Chen doesn't dare!"

Xu Da pretended to be frightened and saluted hurriedly.

"I will take him away now! Duke Wei can do what he wants!"

"Walk!"

Zhu Biao snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked out.

Xiao Qi waved his hand and ordered Hu Fei to be escorted out, following the prince.

Pei Jie, Chun Die and others looked anxious and wanted to catch up, but were stopped by Hu Weiyong's look.

Xu Da looked at Hu Fei being taken away, narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists, but there was nothing he could do. He could not send troops to stop the prince.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came, and then another group of people appeared at the door of Hu Mansion. The leader was Pang Yuhai!

Seeing this scene, everyone present was stunned again, but they didn't expect that His Majesty would be alarmed in the end.

But a sneer flashed quietly at the corner of Xu Da's mouth.

"Eunuch Pang, I didn't expect you to come in person."

Zhu Biao frowned, looked at Pang Yuhai who was walking slowly, and said slowly.

He knew that Hu Fei couldn't be taken away.

"I came to see His Highness the Crown Prince, but I didn't expect His Highness to be here."

Pang Yuhai smiled and bowed respectfully to Zhu Biao.

"No gifts."

Zhu Biao said with a sullen face, waving his hands.

"Then Your Highness..."

Pang Yuhai smiled and pointed to the imperial edict in his hand, and said hesitantly.

Zhu Biao raised his hand and signaled Pang Yuhai to read out the imperial edict.

Immediately afterwards, Pang Yuhai put away his smile and read out the imperial edict in front of everyone with a serious face. The content was nothing more than a sentence, and Hu Fei and Xu Da were asked to enter the palace immediately.

What happened in the Imperial College and the Prime Minister's Mansion had already been reported back to the palace by the inspector.

"Wei Guogong and Hu Gongzi, please follow the old slave into the palace now. Your Majesty is still waiting for you two in the Yangxin Hall."

Pang Yuhai put away the imperial edict, bowed his hands to Hu Fei and Xu Da who stood up, and said respectfully.

"Okay, let's take a trip. It just so happens that I've been missing Your Majesty a little these past few days."

Hu Fei smiled and said casually.

Xu Da snorted coldly and said nothing, but he ordered more than a hundred soldiers to withdraw from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Hu Xiang, why don't you follow me into the palace and have a look, so that you can be a witness."

Zhu Biao turned to look at Hu Weiyong and said slowly.

His intention was very clear, he wanted Hu Weiyong to enter the palace to protect Hu Fei.

Hu Weiyong glanced at Hu Fei and saw that Hu Fei shook his head slightly at him again, so he bowed his hands to Zhu Biao and saluted.

"Your Highness, since it was the dog who made the mistake, then I should avoid suspicion. I believe that your Majesty can clearly distinguish between right and wrong, and will be able to discern clearly."

Hu Weiyong said respectfully while saluting Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao frowned, said nothing, turned around, glanced at Hu Fei, and walked straight to the door.

Immediately afterwards, everyone followed Zhu Biao all the way to the palace.

Pei Jie and Chun Die also followed, but he could not enter the palace and could only wait outside the palace gate.

...

Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Following the announcement, Zhu Biao, Hu Fei, and Xu Da walked into the hall one after another under the leadership of Pang Yuhai.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but frowned when he saw the prince coming.

Then he noticed Hu Fei looking around without a trace of nervousness, and his face darkened.

"My son, please see your father!"

"I am here to see Your Majesty!"

As the three people approached, they all bowed respectfully.

"Prince, Xu Qing, please forgive me without paying any courtesy."

"Kneel down!"

As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he glared at Hu Fei who was about to get up and shouted sharply.

Hu Fei curled his lips and knelt back on the ground.

Zhu Biao glanced at Hu Fei who was kneeling on the ground, frowned, and a trace of worry flashed across his face.

"Xu Qing, is your son seriously injured?"

Then, Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at Xu Da and asked slowly.

"Back to Your Majesty, before I left the palace, I had ordered a doctor to be invited. The specific extent of the injury is not known yet."

Xu Da hurriedly raised his hands and said respectfully.
