Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Seeing Hu Fei's expression, Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes, and the anger on his face became more obvious.

"You still refuse to admit it?!"

"Han Jiang, the commander of the school inspection, has personally admitted that you were the one who arrested Mao Xiang!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Hu Fei and said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I am absolutely unjust!"

"He is the commander of the inspection school, and Mao Xiang is the lieutenant of the inspection school. They must be wearing a pair of trousers. I can't find someone to put them on my head, right?"

Hu Fei shook his head, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said seriously.

"Jiu'an Hou!"

"I have received news a long time ago that the last place Mao Xiang appeared before he disappeared was Hong Bin Building!"

After listening to Hu Fei's words, Han Jiang finally raised his head and retorted loudly.

"Where's the evidence? What evidence do you have to prove that I caught him?!"

Hu Fei snorted coldly, stretched out a hand towards Han Jiang, and said in a deep voice.

After hearing Hu Fei's words, Han Jiang was stunned for a moment and was speechless for a moment.

"Look, Your Majesty, he is just talking nonsense. There is no evidence. How can he prove that I arrested him? This is slander!"

"Your Majesty is aware of everything, so please make the decision for me!"

Hu Fei rolled his eyes at Han Jiang, raised his hands to Zhu Yuanzhang aggrievedly and said.

"You are the one who is telling lies! As I said just now, in addition to Han Jiang, someone else exposed you, and Mao Xiang's disappearance is directly related to you!"

"If you continue to refuse to admit it, I will never forgive you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Hu Fei and shouted sharply.

"Your Majesty, are you going to give in to a fight?"

"How about your Majesty calling the person who made the whistleblower, and I confront him face to face?"

Hu Fei was startled, then smiled bitterly and asked slowly.

But after hearing Hu Fei's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed and he was speechless for a moment.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, Hu Fei narrowed his eyes.

"It seems that it is not convenient for the person who made the whistleblower to show up. Isn't he worried about the retaliation of the minister?"

Hu Fei smiled and said slowly.

"Hu Fei, now is not the time to mess around. Although there is no conclusive evidence, it is a foregone conclusion that you arrested the school inspector without authorization, and you can't let it go!"

"I will give you one last chance. Can you catch Mao Xiang?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes, stared at Hu Fei, and asked word by word.

"yes."

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Hu Fei suddenly answered directly without even thinking about it.

But after hearing his answer, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed between his eyebrows.

"You were unwilling to admit it just now, why are you admitting it so quickly now?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Hu Fei and asked in a deep voice.

"Since Your Majesty said I arrested you, then I did. Regardless of whether there is evidence or not, I have to admit it, right?"

Hu Fei smiled and replied slowly.

If the emperor says that a person is guilty, then he is guilty, and there is no need to explain anything.

Moreover, his goal has been achieved. The gag just now was just to find out how this matter was exposed.

But now it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang will not say it.

"Now that I have admitted it, where is Mao Xiang now?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

"killed."

Hu Fei smiled and answered casually.

After hearing Hu Fei's answer, Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned again and couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

"Mao Xiang is the inspector of the school. Even if he made a mistake, it was not your turn to take action! You actually killed him?!"

Han Jiang also raised his head, looked at Hu Fei in surprise, and said dissatisfied.

"It's you who failed to discipline your subordinates. In this case, I can only do it for you."

Hu Fei snorted coldly, looked at Han Jiang disdainfully, and said coldly.

"Kill?! Why?!"

"Do you know why it is a crime to kill someone who is inspecting the school without authorization?! And he is also a school captain!"

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang also had a serious face and asked coldly.

"Because he deserves to die!"

"Not only did he want to murder my father, he was also disloyal to His Majesty and intended to disrupt the imperial court. He deserves to die!"

Hu Fei gritted his teeth and said seriously.

"what happened?!"

After listening to Hu Fei's words, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"When the Lantern Festival was approaching, I noticed someone in the palace acting suspiciously, but the matter was unknown and I did not dare to disturb His Majesty."

"So, the minister told His Royal Highness the matter. His Royal Highness immediately captured this person and found that this person was secretly colluding with the school inspector Mao Xiang! He intended to murder my father and eradicate the Hu family!"

"After Wei Chen found out, he sent someone to secretly arrest Mao Xiang, but Mao Xiang insisted that he was the mastermind behind the incident!"

"It's okay if he doesn't say it, but now that he has, I have no choice but to kill him without consulting His Majesty!"

As Hu Fei spoke, he pointed at Han Jiang, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice.

"Why?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"If even the inspector and captain of the school participate in the party struggle, the government will be in chaos! So this matter must not be made public!"

"But now I would like to ask Commander Han whether you instigated this matter?!"

While explaining, Hu Fei stared at Han Jiang and asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I am wronged! Prime Minister Hu has a high position and is very important. How dare you harm him!"

Upon hearing this, Han Jiang hurriedly raised his head, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang anxiously and explained.

"Who are you talking about colluding with Mao Xiang?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Fei and asked in a deep voice.

"The internal envoy of Xihua Sect, Yun Qi!"

Hu Fei replied without thinking.

"Just now you said that the prince knew about this, is it true or false?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Hu Fei and asked again.

"There are absolutely no lies. If His Highness the Crown Prince hadn't known all this from Yun Qi's mouth, I'm afraid my father would have been killed long ago for treason, and I wouldn't be standing here."

Hu Fei nodded and said in a deep voice.

"Come here! Prince Xuan, come and see him as soon as possible!"

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment, looked up and looked outside the palace, and said in a deep voice.

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, someone outside the palace immediately agreed and quickly headed to the East Palace.

Pang Yuhai went to the school security office to check on the person, but he has not returned yet.

Hu Fei stopped talking and stared directly at Han Jiang who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes full of resentment.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Fei, his expression softened slightly, and he sat on the couch again with a solemn expression.

...

East Palace.

In the main hall.

Zhu Biao was walking slowly in the hall with his hands behind his back.
