"The medicine leaves people alone!!"
"Your Majesty has a decree, please tell me sincerely that Uncle Liu Bowen will immediately enter the palace to meet with Your Majesty!!"
This sudden sound made everyone present stunned.
None of them expected that at this critical moment, someone would actually stop them.
And when they saw the person coming, they were even more stunned.
They saw King Zhu Zhen of Chu coming over with two people.
In his hand, he also held something yellow like an imperial edict.
Seeing this thing, Hu Weiyong's first reaction was that Zhu Zhen was pretending to pass on the imperial edict!
And his second reaction was, how dare Zhu Zhen!
Such false transmission of the imperial edict is a capital offense, and no one dares to cross the forbidden area. Even Hu Weiyong at this time does not dare to falsely convey the imperial edict.
But now, Zhu Zhen just did it.
Not to mention Hu Weiyong at this moment, even Liu Bowen was completely stunned.
"Your Highness, you don't have to...!"
"Liu Bowen, you still haven't accepted the order??"
Liu Bowen wanted to say that Zhu Zhen did not have to do such risky behavior for him.
However, before he could say anything like this, he was interrupted by Zhu Zhen.
Such an interruption was obviously not expected by Liu Bowen or Hu Weiyong.
Zhu Zhen's speed was so fast that he didn't even react at first.
Seeing that Liu Bowen was about to accept the order, he finally reacted.
"Your Highness, is this imperial edict of yours really from His Majesty?"
"Nonsense, if it's not an imperial edict from my father, can it still be called an imperial edict?"
"But isn't His Majesty's imperial edict read out by the eunuchs or imperial envoys in the palace?"
"That's true, but this time, I'm on my way, so I'm here along the way!!"
"Why, Prime Minister, you don't believe it? If you don't believe it, why don't you take a look first?"
After Zhu Zhen finished speaking, he handed out the imperial edict and stretched it directly in front of Hu Weiyong.
That kind of appearance seemed to be casually looked at by Hu Weiyong.
However, this imperial decree cannot be read by just anyone.
Especially since Liu Bowen had not yet accepted the order, Hu Weiyong was even more unreadable.
Once you see it, you will definitely not be able to escape the crime of overstepping your bounds.
Moreover, this kind of thing can be big or small. To be more serious, Hu Weiyong is also in big trouble.
Therefore, when Zhu Zhen handed over the imperial edict, Hu Weiyong waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, I dare not!!"
"Since it is the imperial edict conveyed by His Highness, I must believe it!!"
“Just believe it!!”
After Zhu Zhen finished speaking, he looked at Liu Bowen again.
Obviously, he wanted Liu Bowen to accept the order.
And Liu Bowen couldn't help but look at Zhu Zhen. He wanted to get some of the information Zhu Zhen wanted to convey from Zhu Zhen's eyes.
However, what he saw in Zhu Zhen's eyes was only peace.
It was as if Zhu Zhen knew nothing, as if he really appeared here to convey the imperial edict.
This made Liu Bowen stunned. He could no longer tell whether this matter was true or false.
In a daze, he actually took over the imperial edict from Zhu Zhen.
Then, Zhu Zhen's voice sounded clearly in Liu Bowen's ears.
"Master Liu, come with me to the palace to meet the saint!!"
"Ah! Yes!!"
In the end, Liu Bowen accepted the order and planned to enter the palace with Zhu Zhen to meet the saint.
However, when they were leaving, Hu Weiyong also spoke.
"Since Mr. Liu and His Highness are going to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit, then the ministers should also go back together!!"
The reason why he wanted to go back together was naturally to prevent Zhu Zhen and Liu Bowen from colluding.
At the same time, he also wanted to watch Liu Bowen and Zhu Zhen enter the palace together.
If they really lied about the imperial edict, they would definitely die.
If it was not a false edict, then that would be a different story.
Therefore, on the way back, he kept an eye on Liu Bowen and Zhu Zhen, not giving them any chance to collude.
It wasn't until they entered the palace that Hu Weiyong snorted coldly.
"Hmph! You actually dare to pretend to preach the imperial edict in front of me. This time, none of you can do anything good!!"
After Hu Weiyong finished speaking, he took a deep look in the direction of the palace, and then left without stopping.
This is a major matter of falsely transmitting imperial edicts. No matter how Zhu Yuanzhang handles it, he cannot participate in it.
Otherwise, he will inevitably be in big trouble.
On the other side, Liu Bowen wanted to ask Zhu Zhen several times.
But in the end, he still didn't speak.
Afterwards, the group of them entered the palace directly.
Their arrival obviously confused Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang had already acquiesced that Hu Weiyong had taken action against Liu Bowen. Under such circumstances, Liu Bowen should not appear in his palace.
But now, Liu Bowen and Zhu Zhen appeared here, which really surprised him.
However, since he is already here, he naturally wants to meet him.
"Let them in!!"
Under Zhu Yuanzhang's order, Liu Bowen and Zhu Zhen entered the palace.
At this time, Liu Bowen was very uneasy.
But when things came to a head, he had no way to back down.
"Wei Chen has met His Majesty!!"
"My son has met my father!!"
"No gifts!!"
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, his eyes fell on Zhu Zhen.
He knew that Liu Bowen must have been brought by Zhu Zhen.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's questioning gaze, Zhu Zhen grinned:
"Father, don't you have something to ask Uncle Chengyi and summon Uncle Chengyi to the palace? Now Uncle Chengyi is here!!"
"ah?"
Zhu Zhen's words made Zhu Yuanzhang open his mouth.
He can guarantee that he did not issue such a decree.
However, Zhu Zhen's words are not a joke.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang's eyelids twitch, and even veins popped out on his forehead.
He immediately understood that this must be Zhu Zhen's false edict.
But how dare he! !
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to yell at Zhu Zhen and ask him how he dared to falsely pass on the imperial edict.
But thinking that Zhu Zhen was his son and Zhu Zhen's fighting ability, he forcibly suppressed his urge to question Zhu Zhen loudly in front of others.
His eyes fell on Liu Bowen, and then he said bluntly:
"Liu Bowen, let me ask you, did you give Liao Yongzhong the signal to get rid of Prince Xiao Ming?"
"Reply to Your Majesty, Wei Chen does not, Wei Chen has never done such a thing!!"
"Based on the situation at that time, if you get rid of Xiao Ming Wang, His Majesty will only be in the spotlight. How could Wei Chen do such a thing?"
"Then what exactly did you write in the letters between you and Liao Yongzhong??"
"Weichen rarely corresponds with him. There are only two or three letters in total, and they all talk about some trivial military matters at that time. If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, Weichen is willing to hand over Weichen's diary. Weichen There are also records in my diary!!"
"You still keep a diary??"
"written!!"
The so-called diary is a diary.
Zhu Yuanzhang also did not expect that Liu Bowen had the habit of writing a diary.
If this is the case, then he may have really misunderstood Liu Bowen.
But, who in the right mind keeps a diary?
Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang was not in the mood to care about this at this time. After confirming that Liu Bowen and this matter had nothing to do with it, he just said a few perfunctory words.
"Then hand in your diary!!"
"Now you can go back!!"
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell directly on Zhu Zhen.
