The atmosphere in the imperial study was extremely depressing, and Zhu Zheng was furious.
Zhu Ziyan didn't know why.
Then he picked up the memorial from the ground.
Sure enough, it was Lin Bai's handwriting. She recognized Lin Bai's handwriting at a glance, and as she read it, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.
The content of the memorial is very simple.
Lin Bai asked to take over Ezhou New City and said he would lead merchants and supplies into Ezhou.
However, the tone did not sound like a request for instructions, but more like a notification.
In Zhu Zheng's view, this was undoubtedly treason.
"Rebellious ministers and traitors, look at the person you are interested in. He has long been coveting the country of Dali. He was still acting coyly before, but now he is no longer hiding it and wants to directly take over Ezhou. It is simply unreasonable..."
Zhu Zheng was furious.
Zhu Ziyan didn't take it seriously and said, "Father, why does Qingfeng want to take over Ezhou?"
"The southwest is booming, and Ezhou is a big mess. Why would he let go of his good life and take over such a mess? He just doesn't want this mess to drag down Li Chao and make the people of Ezhou suffer."
"As for why he is so direct, it is not because my father has been unwilling to lift the blockade of the southwest..."
"presumptuous!"
Zhu Zheng was furious, "This subordinate belongs to me. If I want to block it, I can block it, and if I want to lift it, I can lift it. He cannot make any mistakes. If he is a kind and rebellious minister, I will kill him."
"Father, you, Qingfeng, are a rebellious minister and a traitor. So far, has he done anything that would harm the Li Dynasty?"
Zhu Ziyan said loudly, "No, not a thing. He has always been doing things for the court with all his heart. Even when he was attacked from both sides in Hexi, he never did anything that harmed the court. How could such a person become a traitor? Just because of his Origin?"
"He didn't have a choice in his origin. He just didn't want to die. Isn't this also the case?"
Zhu Zheng said coldly: "He is an orphan from the previous dynasty, he must die!"
Zhu Ziyan said: "He is not an orphan from the previous dynasty, but the son of King Jing. The late emperor did not deny the identity of King Jing even until his death."
Zhu Zheng said angrily: "The fact that the late emperor did not deny it does not mean that it does not exist. Even so, he is a traitor and his death will not be a pity."
Zhu Ziyan said, "We don't care whether King Jing is rebelling. Even so, it is not Qingfeng. Why does my father care so much about it? Is it because he is afraid that Qingfeng will bring up the old matter again? I promise, Qingfeng will never..."
"You are presumptuous!"
Zhu Zheng was furious and his lips trembled, "You are so rebellious and ignorant. Do you really think that Dali and his party and I have been silent because I am reluctant to punish you?"
"Wishful thinking. If Wanxiang Kingdom and Dali had not betrayed their trust and slackened in the encirclement and suppression of the southwest, I would never have spared you."
Zhu Ziyan seemed to be willing to give up, and said: "Father, you can punish me however you want! I don't care about my son. He was already dead when my father married me into Dali, but I still want him. Qingfeng never thought Even if he rebels, he only serves the imperial court."
"Even though my father blocked the southwest, he was still doing his best for the imperial court, supporting the war in the north, and trying to move the southwest industry inward. Everything was for the imperial court. If he really wanted to rebel, he would have rebelled long ago. Why wait until now..."
"enough!"
Zhu Zheng was furious, "You are so presumptuous as to be the princess of the Li Dynasty. Your elbows are turned outward. All he has done is to win people's hearts."
"It is precisely because I am the princess of Li Dynasty that I want it more."
Zhu Ziyan continued, "Father, you have always been generous, can't you tolerate Qingfeng? Even if he is not a prince, he is still a consort. He is dedicated to the court. With his current reputation, does he still need to win people's hearts?"
With the great talent's current reputation, it has reached its peak whether among scholars, businessmen, the military, or the common people.
There is really no need to win people over.
But these words were undoubtedly harsh in Zhu Zheng's ears.
"Get out! Get out of here immediately!"
Zhu Zheng was furious, "I tell you, as long as I am still alive, you will never be able to be with him."
…
Naturally, the talented man didn't know that the noise was already getting louder here.
But he wasn't really worried about Zhuiyue and Qi's safety.
There's no need for Zhui Yue. She doesn't owe Lao Zhu anything. On the contrary, Lao Zhu owes her. Lao Zhu can't do anything to Zhui Yue if he wants to save face.
As for Qi, Baihe has already married Qi in place of Qi. It is impossible for Zhu Zheng to take the initiative to expose this matter, and the purpose of the marriage of the Three Kingdoms is to inhibit the development of the southwest.
Now that this goal has failed, Wanxiang Kingdom has actively joined the development of the southwest, and the marriage of the Three Kingdoms has lost its meaning, and Lao Zhu is even less interested in dealing with these things.
Therefore, the talented man is not worried about the safety of his two daughters at all.
Of course, he had no time to care about this at the moment.
He has been very busy these days, because after several beautiful ladies discussed it, they all felt that their husband could not let Ezhou deteriorate.
After all, my husband had made a promise in front of the people of Ezhou. Now that something like this happened, there was no way he could just sit back and ignore it, which would damage his reputation.
The key is that the husband has this ability, and Dongxi has this ability.
The great talent himself couldn't bear it, so he gave Lao Zhu a seal and at the same time summoned businessmen and mobilized supplies.
He has been busy with this all this time.
At this moment, at Guiling Pier and Bozhou Pier, countless merchant ships were assembled and on standby. In addition, there were even more overland convoys, countless in number, all preparing to head towards Ezhou and the interior.
Lin Bai was standing on the deck of one of the huge ships, looking at the densely packed ships around him, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Um! It just feels like a big Sabi.
He tried his best to throw money outside, but the key point is that Lao Zhu still doesn't appreciate it. What's going on?
Even great talents can’t figure it out, but ladies all think it should be done, so let’s do it! It doesn't matter if we take off in the southwest and take the mainland with us.
What's more, this has always been the plan of the great genius, but it's a pity for Lao Zhu, a stubborn old man.
That’s it! Just think of it as repaying Lao Zhu’s favor! No matter what, such a large area in the southwest was originally owned by Lao Zhu, but he took it over and deceived Lao Zhu's two daughters.
The talented man could only comfort himself in this way.
In addition to the great talents on the deck, Wu Qiaojun is naturally indispensable, and her husband's personal bodyguards must naturally follow.
In addition, Gu Ling'er also accompanied the school
Because her status as a princess of the Wu Dynasty was more useful to Lao Zhu than her status as the Southwest King. Now that the ladies are here, everything in the Southwest is on track. It is enough to have Iron Lady and Sister Yan in charge.
Several beautiful ladies were afraid that their husbands would be too tired, so...
"Uncle, everything is ready."
Yan Gang said at this time.
"good!"
Lin Bai nodded, looked in the direction of Ezhou, and said: "Let's go!"
Following his order, countless merchant ships and caravans immediately headed towards Ezhou in a mighty manner.
