Duke Ying Guofu Youde spoke for Zhang Lu because Zhang Lu saved Fu Rang's life, which was a love affair.

Zhu Yunwen spoke to Zhang Lu, which was loyalty.

But Zhang Lu couldn't imagine why Mr. Zicheng would also speak for him.

Seeing that Zhang Lu was silent, Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "Tell me, what about the princes in the court?"

Generally, the questions asked by the emperor are difficult to answer. If one is not done properly, it will lose its head. However, today Zhang Lu did not sleep all night, and he was in a bad mood and was too lazy to say those scenes.

He said bluntly: "I don't know."

"Don't know?" Zhang Lu's answer seemed to arouse Zhu Yuanzhang's interest. Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "Your answer is interesting. So many people impeach you this morning. I rarely give you a chance to speak out. Don't you want to

Then attack each other with them?"

Zhang Lu shook his head, "Jinling City is not small. What did I do last night? I was impeached this morning. It was not dawn when I went to court in the morning. I really can't figure out how these people who impeached me knew me.

What did they do yesterday? These people just avoid the important things, otherwise the one who was impeached the most this morning was the City Inspection Department. I think even if no one impeached them, His Majesty must have known about the fact that more than a dozen people died in Songzhu Pavilion.

”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and his expression became serious, "Of course I know."

Zhang Lu continued: "The reason why I don't attack them is because there is no evidence yet. Many of these people must have colluded with the Dark Lord, but some people don't know the cause and effect, and only heard about me.

I followed the trend and impeached people. I will never let go of those who want to kill me, but I don’t want to harm innocent people. I don’t know much about the adults in the court, and I know even less, so Your Majesty asked me

, I can only answer that I don’t know.”

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed very satisfied with Zhang Lu's answer. He nodded and asked again: "I got this huge world at the beginning. I just wanted to give the people all over the world a full meal and give scholars all over the world a chance to display their talents.

I have clearly given many people fame and status, and even given them the opportunity to be recorded in history, but I don’t understand why some people are just unsatisfied. In this court, I’m afraid many court officials have colluded with the dark master.

If all of them are dealt with, it may cause many important departments of the imperial court to be paralyzed. What do you think should we do?"

Zhang Lu didn't even think about it, but answered directly: "I have a specialized career. I can't answer Your Majesty's question. Perhaps only those capable ministers in the world can answer it. But I have heard a word called 'No destruction, no establishment', which I see

If you don’t blame the public for coming to the law, you should be punished if you make mistakes, otherwise what’s fair in the world?”

How could ordinary ministers dare to speak so bluntly in front of the emperor? So in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, Zhang Lu was strange.

Zhu Yuanzhang was an idealist, but he was also a practical person. Like the vast number of emperors, he hoped that all the officials under his command would be honest and fair. The Ming Dynasty was also good at the beginning, but Zhu Yuanzhang underestimated the power of money and underestimated it.

The ugliness of human nature, many officials in such a huge court have been corrupted. Even if Hu Weiyong had learned from the past, he could not stop people's greed.

So Zhu Yuanzhang has been worried that the court must operate, and if there is too much killing, the country will inevitably be paralyzed. But today Zhang Lu's answer seems to have made him find the answer. The pain may be temporary, but the lesions must be eradicated, as long as the lesions are to be removed

Just kill all the greedy and ugly officials in the world.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied. He stroked his beard and said, "What a good person who is not broken or established. You are very good, so let's go ahead."

"This is over? Can I leave?" Zhang Lu asked in confusion.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "What else? Do I still want to keep you in the palace for the New Year?"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Lu said: "I don't know much about the laws and rules of the Ming Dynasty, but I did break into the Duke Xuan's Mansion and the Guardian of the City Office yesterday. One of these two places is the residence of the nobles and the other is the court.

The institution must still bear some guilt. I admit all of these, but I can’t stay in the prison now. Can I wait until I kill the Dark Lord before going?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and waved his hand at Zhang Lu, "Let's go, as long as I don't say you are guilty, no one in the world dares to imprison you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lu could have fallen into the ground with a big rock in his heart. He bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and then left the imperial study room.

When Zhang Lu left, a man in his thirties appeared behind Zhu Yuanzhang's screen. The man was named Fang Xiaoru. Although he was not old, he was already a famous scholar all over the world. Although he had not participated in the imperial examination, he had many noble court officials.

He recommended him to Zhu Yuanzhang, who also invited him to attack and ask for advice several times.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Fang Xiaoru and asked, "What does Mr. Fang think of this guy Zhang Lu?"

Fang Xiaoru thought for a while and replied: "It is very useful to speak out, be determined, be determined, and be brave to take responsibility. It will be a big deal if you polish it in the future. But now, you are too young to bring the body of a brothel woman home, and

He used many Jinyiwei people last night, and it was really inappropriate to use public instruments for private use."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and shook his head, "Take the body of a brothel woman home, which shows that this kid is deeply in love. This kind of person will be difficult to betray him if he uses it well in the future. It is only a trivial matter to use the Jinyiwei. Mr. Fang thought he had no one.

And Jiang Yan nodded, could Zhang Lu use the soldiers and soldiers of the Jinyiwei? It is said that no one is perfect, because this boy has shortcomings, that is good. If he does everything properly, arrest him.

If there is no problem, I will not dare to use it."

Fang Xiaoru bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Your Majesty's wisdom is beyond the reach of others, and the people admire it very much."

Fang Xiaoru is a real scholar. He is good at all aspects, but he can't adapt and naturally he will not flatter, even if he is facing the emperor.

So it is of course a very happy thing to be praised by someone who will never flatter you.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Fang would also praise me. Mr. Fang was not like this before."

Fang Xiaoru was serious and said, "Caomin is just telling the truth. I just don't know when His Majesty will start to take action?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "How can this be done overnight? Let's wait for now."

"I wonder what Your Majesty is waiting for?" Fang Xiaoru asked in confusion.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "After all, many people died in the Songzhu Pavilion. I want to see if there will be any court officials reporting this matter today. The most ugly thing in the world is the hearts of the people, but I still want to see it.

”

Zhu Yuanzhang was talking, and a little eunuch had already presented three memorials on a pallet. Zhu Yuanzhang opened them one by one, and after reading them all, he patted his thighs and smiled, saying, "My court is still a bit clear, Huang Xi, Qi Tai

Xie Jin and the other two submitted a memorial, talking about the Songzhu Pavilion, and impeached the Inspection Commission."

Fang Xiaoru stood aside and said, "Based on these people, we will definitely be able to spread to the world. If there are such people in the court, the people of the grass will congratulate Your Majesty."

...

Zhang Lu followed the eunuch out of the palace, but he didn't know that his trouble had been found.
