Chapter 306: Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang no longer entangled with the issue of immortality, Hu Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang was not as extreme as Yin and Yangzi, so he didn't have to fabricate a lie from the North Pole to deceive people.

"Your Majesty, I dare not speak more about this imperial examination fraud case. After all, there is no right to speak without investigation. I have just returned and I only learned about it. However, I have the list of Jinshi re-planned by the second place in this palace examination, so I can give the emperor a look."

Hu Ye said that, taking out Yin Changlong's new list from his arms. In fact, he knew that there was no problem with the imperial examination this time, but he didn't dare to say that. Zhu Yuanzhang was not that easy to talk to.

You should know that what Zhu Yuanzhang hated the most was corruption and abuse of power. No matter whether you have it or not, as long as someone reports it, you will be convicted first.

Moreover, the results of this palace examination were too strange. They were all southern scholars, so Zhu Yuanzhang naturally had to doubt it.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Li Zi to take the new list in Hu Ye's hand. When he opened it, he found that there were not only southern scholars, but also several northern scholars on the list.

"Okay, I'll say there's something wrong with this imperial examination." After Zhu Yuanzhang finished watching it, he slapped the table and then shouted, "Come on, come on, Liu Sanwu will capture me!"

Hu Ye was stunned. What is this situation? Isn’t it just a new list? Is it worth going now? That old man Liu Sanwu caught him?

"Could it be that Liu Sanwu was sent to a prison by Zhu Yuanzhang, and it was also caused by himself?" Hu Ye murmured in his heart. Judging from Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance, he didn't seem to let Liu Sanwu go. Could it be that he asked Yin Changlong to write the name of a northern scholar on the list, which was the culprit that caused Liu Sanwu to go to a prison?

"Be calm and calm. Even if it's not me, Yin Changlong will eventually write the names of northern scholars on the list. Not only Yin Changlong can write them alone, but also a few candidates can write them. I just made history a little bit ahead of time." Hu Ye calmed down.

"Boy. Is Yin Changlong living in your house now? Are you involved in this list?"

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the list and suddenly asked Hu Ye.

"Ah! No, no! This matter was done entirely by Yin Changlong alone. How could Wei Chen control his thoughts?" Hu Ye quickly cleared his relationship.

In less than a stick of incense, the elderly Liu Sanwu had already arrived at Fengtian Hall. He felt sorry for this old man. He was arrested in the middle of the night to Fengtian Hall.

"Liu Sanwu! Do you know your guilt!"

As soon as Liu Sanwu came, he was questioned loudly by Zhu Yuanzhang before he could say long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long live long.

"I am not only guilty, but also ask the emperor to tell me." Liu Sanwu was still the same as before. He was not too anxious and slow. Even though Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, he remained unmoved.

"Hmph, go and see it yourself. This is the new list you have set to write for the second place."

Zhu Yuanzhang said that and threw down the new list.

Liu Sanwu walked up, picked up the list, looked carefully, and naturally found something strange.

"Your Majesty, I have read the test papers of Zhao Gang, Liu Shengyuan and ten people, and it is not enough to win the Jinshi. This list is a fallacy." After Liu Sanwu looked at the list, he re-routely topped the list, and then he still said that expression.

Hu Ye had to admire the old man Liu Sanwu. He was even more calm than Yan Shenggong, and he was worthy of being a great scholar.

"You...you have the ability to say it again!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he was very angry by Liu Sanwu. At this time, he still didn't let go.

He actually wanted to give an explanation to the Northern scholars. As long as Liu Sanwu admitted that there was something wrong with the original imperial list, even if Liu Sanwu was really corrupt, he would not be able to kill Liu Sanwu, right?

He was afraid that Liu Sanwu would be obsessed with it and would not recognize him. Even he had no choice.

"Your Majesty, I think this list is still a fallacy. The northern scholars above are not worthy of being a Jinshi." Liu Sanwu said calmly, as if he did not take Zhu Yuanzhang's anger seriously.

"It's so angry that I'm so angry that I'm so angry that I'm so angry that I'm so angry that I'm so angry that I'm so angry that I almost didn't breathe. I quickly took a sip of tea and then I took a breath of breath.

"Come on, I'll send this old guy to prison and choose a date for a trial!" After recovering, Zhu Yuanzhang shouted loudly.

Immediately, two vicious guards walked in and were about to arrest Liu Sanwu into prison.

Hu Ye had to admire this old man Liu. At this time, he still had a look of his face. He was worthy of being a stone in the pit, smelly and hard. At this time, it was time for him to take action.

"Your Majesty, I think there must be something strange about this matter and need to think twice." Hu Ye took a step forward and said loudly.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Hu Ye's words, he raised his right hand and the two guards put Liu Sanwu down.

After being let go, Liu Sanwu looked at Hu Ye. Why hadn't he seen this kid before? Why would the emperor listen to what he said?

"Boy, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard. In fact, he didn't believe that Liu Sanwu would be corrupt and abuse the law from the bottom of his heart. After all, he was so old that he saw his previous political achievements.

However, Liu Sanwu was too stubborn and refused to bend his waist at all, which made him unable to get out of the Taiwan Strait. If he didn't get rid of it, he would be furious.

"Your Majesty, this palace examination is all the Jinshis who were southern scholars, which is indeed a bit strange." Hu Ye said.

"Boy, you can eat randomly, and you can't talk randomly."

Liu Sanwu looked at Hu Ye coldly and said loudly.

Hu Ye ignored Liu Sanwu and continued, "Although this matter is strange, there is a reason."

"Oh, let's talk about it." Zhu Yuanzhang asked curiously intrigue.

Liu Sanwu also looked at Hu Ye curiously, thinking that this kid is not simple. At the age of fourteen or five, he dared to talk about it in front of the murderous demon king Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Emperor, when the Mongolian cavalry went south, conquered most of the Central Plains, and brought their set to the Central Plains. Therefore, the north has always been under their ravages and there is no time to learn the Confucian set. On the contrary, in the south, because the Southern Song Dynasty resisted for many years, the economy and culture of the south have been deeply influenced by Confucian culture, so once they participate in the imperial examination, their strength and weakness will appear."

"So although this imperial examination is strange, it is reasonable." Hu Ye analyzed and recited the analysis of the case of the North and South List after the funeral.

"Oh? What do you mean is that Liu Sanwu and the others are not corrupt? No one of the northern scholars are on the list. They think that my governance is inappropriate, which will cause such a big gap between the north and the south?" Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly.

Ruan An behind him quickly looked at Hu Ye, and shut up if he wanted to survive.

Hu Ye was also sweating coldly behind his back. Zhu Yuanzhang is worthy of being Zhu Yuanzhang, no wonder he had so many literary inquisitions back then.

I just told the truth, and this guy puts a hat on himself and even puts him in the face of his incompetence in governance.

"The emperor calmed down. This is not what the empress meant. The emperor naturally had good governance. You see, the country is peaceful and the people live and work in peace. Even the severe drought last year did not have any impact on the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the Mongolians in the north were driven out of the Central Plains, and the Goryeo in the east also paid tribute every year. These are the emperor's great achievements. How could it be ineffective to govern." Hu Ye braved his cold sweat and flattered. At this time, don't talk back to Zhu Yuanzhang, he is not as easy as Zhu Di.

Liu Sanwu glanced at Hu Ye with contempt. He thought Hu Ye was a loyal minister and a good general, but he didn't expect that he was also a flatterer.

"What do you mean?" After hearing Hu Ye's flattery, Zhu Yuanzhang looked a little better and asked Hu Ye again.

Ruan An's face then calmed down. As expected, everyone likes to flatter.

Hu Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized what it means to be with the king and accompany the tiger. If it weren't for his wit, he might have been imprisoned with Liu Sanwu.

Then I remembered the storytelling I had heard before, saying that Zhu Yuanzhang's ministers went to court every day and seemed to go to the battlefield. When they went out in the morning, they would leave a suicide note, what if they didn't come back.

"When I go back to the emperor, I am the one who means that some things are not within the reach of manpower, and the north is brave and good at fighting, so they do not attach much importance to the imperial examination. Naturally, they are much weaker in the imperial examination. So as for whether Lord Liu and others are corrupt, I am afraid to assert that this time the imperial examination is the result of this time, there is still some truth." Hu Ye replied.

"Oh, you went around for a long time and finally wanted to commit suicide for Liu Sanwu. Is it that I am indiscriminate?" Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly again.

Hu Ye's cold sweat came out. This was not the emperor. He was clearly a scoundrel. When did he commit crimes on Liu Sanwu? He clearly said that he did not dare to assert whether Liu Sanwu was corrupt.

When did you say that you are indiscriminate? Are you taking the right role?

Of course, Hu Ye only dares to say these things in his heart, and he still has to be respectful in his mouth.

"The emperor misunderstood. The empress is just talking about the cultural differences between the scholars of the north and the south, and there is no other meaning."

Hu Ye decided to end his conversation in a cold sweat. He was afraid that if he continued to speak, he would be pulled closer to the dead end by Zhu Yuanzhang because whatever he said, Zhu Yuanzhang would feel that he was slandering.

"This is what you call strangeness? Could it be that I feel that I am old and cannot keep up with you young people and want to play with me?" Zhu Yuanzhang said unyieldingly.

Hu Ye collapsed. Zhu Yuanzhang is worthy of being the humblest emperor in Chinese history. He is invincible when he is shameless. Compared with him, Zhu Di is just a witch.

"I don't dare, I don't dare." Hu Ye quickly knelt down. He decided that he would not enter the palace if he was beaten to death in the future. Zhu Yuanzhang was too terrible.

"Your Majesty, I think that boy has no such intentions. He just expressed his own ideas. Moreover, his master has lived in the mountains for a long time, but he knows all the big things in the world. What the boy said must have been influenced by his master, and there may be some truths." Ruan An also said to Zhu Yuanzhang.
