Father can be an enemy to the country

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of the prince, the finally announced list of Hu Party members was successfully reduced. Not only did Song Lian survive, but the three great scholars and Zheng Jiucheng, who had already become an official, were also removed from the list.

Their charges were downgraded from being members of Hu's rebel party to being closely associated with Hu Weiyong, giving and receiving privately, and they were sentenced to exile in the frontier. This is the limit of what the prince can do.

In the end, only eleven people were designated as Hu Party members and sentenced to death. The remaining officials were released one after another after making a new transcript. Most of the officers were reinstated, but only a few who were found to have committed serious crimes were just released from the Jinyiwei Yamen and were taken away by the Ministry of Punishment to handle another case. This seamlessly connected them to yes.

The Di newspaper spread to Henan and other places, and nobles such as Wu Liang, Lu Zhongheng, Tang Shengzong, etc. breathed a long sigh of relief. The news that Hu Weiyong's previous rebellion failed scared them so much that they couldn't sleep all night long.

Even though they talk about being 'anti-his mother' all day long, as long as Boss Zhu is here, none of them dare to go beyond the boundaries.

They were all generals led by Zhu Yuanzhang. He knew very well that if he rebelled against Boss Zhu ten thousand times, he would not win even once.

After Hu Weiyong was arrested, these nobles did not have the courage to fight to the death. Besides, they didn't have the strength. Boss Zhu sent them to local areas to train troops, but he didn't give them military power.

Not to mention the commanders and envoys from all provinces, even the commanders and envoys down below, Qianhu, couldn't possibly rebel against them while Boss Zhu was still alive. No one is tired of living, and no one wants to die in vain.

So in those days, whenever there was any disturbance, they thought it was the imperial court sending troops to arrest them. In panic all day long, Tang Shengzong and several others even wrote suicide notes and prepared to commit suicide out of fear of crime.

Fortunately, Boss Zhu cut the knot quickly and announced the list of Hu Party members within a few days. Seeing that he was not on top, these guys felt a little relieved. But I don't dare to take it lightly, lest this is Boss Zhu's delaying strategy, and I will deal with them after this period has passed.

So they sent people to Fengyang to pay their respects to the Korean government. In fact, they wanted to ask Big Brother whether the test had passed.

"Has this passed?" Facing the question relayed by Li Cunyi, Li Shanchang smiled bitterly.

Those younger brothers didn't know that he, the eldest brother, was actually not much better. I have been so scared these past few days that I have changed into several pairs of pants.

The first pair of pants was made when I heard that Hu Weiyong had really betrayed me and thought about the outcome of a narrow escape.

The second one was that I was frightened when I heard that Hu Weiyong's rebellion failed.

The third article is that I heard that Boss Zhu arrested all civil and military officials and interrogated them severely, thinking that he was going to cause a big prison and be widely implicated.

After receiving the Hu Party's list, he thought that was the end of it. Unexpectedly, he received an edict the next day, ordering him to go to Beijing immediately for an audience.

Good guys, number four...

"I don't know whether it's bad or good to go here, how can I know if this pass has passed?" Li Shanchang sighed with self-deprecation, looking greedily at his manor, the pavilions, pavilions and meandering water bottles built with huge sums of money. Once I go, I have no chance to see you again in this life.

"Brother, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?" Li Cunyi no longer had the courage to take revenge. He looked at Li Shanchang and said: "Hu Weiyong is still a man and has not implicated us. The emperor has no conclusive evidence and will not touch our family... …Bar?"

"Childish." Li Shanchang shook his head slowly. Although he was incontinent in his old age and was a bit confused, his remaining intelligence was not comparable to that of Li Cunyi. "What kind of good intentions do you think Hu Weiyong has?"

"Ah?" Li Cunyi asked in confusion: "Didn't he do what he said and do what he said?"

"If one person is responsible for it, can he be responsible?" Li Shan laughed loudly and said: "He was treason, not murder. He just took a knife when he got angry. Rebellion requires organization, planning, and change of dynasty. Only with strength can he do it!”

"There are only three or two kittens on the list. They think they don't have enough manpower to rob a village, and they are planning to rebel!" Li Shanchang said with a sad face:

"If the emperor went on a grand scale this time and killed tens of thousands of people, I would be able to feel at ease. But the emperor only killed so many people, how could he just settle the matter?"

"What, you're still going to make lists?" Li Cunyi was startled.

"If it were you, someone rebelled and only a few people were arrested, how could you sleep?" Li Shanchang asked.

"Well, it's true..." Li Cunyi nodded and said, "We must dig deeper to find the traitors, otherwise we won't be able to sleep well."

"Isn't this the end?" Li Shanchang sighed: "So this matter is not over yet."

"Then why is the emperor so anxious to close the case?" Li Cunyi asked in confusion.

"This is the viciousness of Hu Weiyong. Most people who conspire to rebel will not care whether their comrades will be implicated if they fail. They wish that everyone would be buried with him." Li Shanchang saw Hu Weiyong's plan and said:

"Hu Weiyong did the opposite. He expected that his chances of success were slim, so he made great efforts to cover up his accomplices. In this way, even if he failed, his accomplices like You would not be exposed."

"Either the Emperor has to go on an indiscriminate killing spree and kill everyone who has anything to do with Hu Weiyong." Li Shanchang said leisurely:

"Either you can do what you are doing now, hold your nose and admit it first. But once the seeds of suspicion are planted in your heart, they will quickly spread like weeds. The emperor is also suspicious. The longer he does not have an attack for a long time, the suspicion will spread. The heavier it gets, the more everyone around him will become the object of his suspicion. In the end, he will have to kill them all..."

"Ah..." Li Cunyi's face turned pale. It turned out that his head was only temporarily saved, and he would have to move sooner or later. "Then how long can the emperor hold back?"

"Who knows, it could be as short as one or two years or as long as three to five years. It's possible." Li Shanchang shook his head and said: "It also depends on whether there are people who don't want to commit suicide. If they have been honest all the time, , as time goes by, the emperor may just let it go."

As he spoke, he said with a worried look: "But how can they all be honest? They are all a group of idiots like you who care about food but not fighting. They won't be able to stop for a few years and will fall back into their old ways."

"Then what should we do?" Li Cunyi was very frightened at least for the moment.

"There is nothing I can do. I can't even control my own brother, how can I control others?" Li Shan sighed and said, "This is a conspiracy that cannot be broken. We can only try to delay the arrival of that day..."

"Then what is Hu Weiyong trying to do?" Li Cunyi stamped his feet angrily.

"I want the entire Ming Dynasty to be buried with him and his son." Li Shanchang glanced at Li Cunyi's right leg and said, "Is your leg healed?"

"Ah." Li Cunyi nodded blankly. Before he could react, Li Shanchang used all his strength to swing the dragon's head and hit him hard on his left leg!

With a click, Li Cunyi screamed and fell to the ground, hugging his left leg and shouting: "Ahhhh, it hurts me to death!"

He angrily asked Li Shanchang: "If you don't let me go out, just tell me why you keep breaking my legs!"

"To relieve my hatred." Li Shanchang, leaning on his staff, looked at Li Cunyi coldly and said, "I have brought the old Li family to such a state, and even if I break all your bones, I still won't be able to forgive my hatred!"
