Transmigrated to the Great Ming Dynasty, I became Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Carpenter Emperor. Well then, I'll hide behind the scenes; I'll take the blame, and you all go die.
As a result, today it felt like all my heavy punches were hitting cotton, and all of them fell short.
I really didn't expect that Prince Lu would be such a person. Zhu Youxiao really didn't know what he felt in his heart.
On the one hand, I was glad that such a loser was so easy to fool, but on the other hand, I was angry. How could he be so useless? He was a prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he was like this?
After Chen Hong returned, Zhu Youxiao asked directly, "Does the Jinyiwei have anyone in Prince Lu's Mansion? If there's no one from the Jinyiwei, does the Dongchang have anyone?"
"Your Majesty, everyone is here." Chen Hong said quickly.
"Then ask the Imperial Guards to ask who usually makes the decisions regarding matters at Prince Lu's Mansion? And who was responsible for this case of embezzling grain and money?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Hong quickly agreed.
Zhu Youxiao thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on Prince Lu these days. Don't let anyone do anything. Protect Prince Lu's safety."
After hearing this, Chen Hong's heart sank, and he quickly said, "Yes, I will definitely arrange for someone to look after Prince Lu."
Although Chen Hong said so, Zhu Youxiao was still worried.
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Youxiao said, "Not only should we be on guard against outsiders, but we should also keep an eye on the people around Prince Lu. Don't let them come into contact with Prince Lu unless it's necessary. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I understand." Chen Hong quickly agreed.
After realizing that Prince Lu was a waste, this case of embezzlement of grain and wages was definitely not presided over by Prince Lu, so it could only be someone around him.
I'm going to investigate this case next, and it's bound to cause a lot of noise. When it really comes to a fight to the death, who knows what those people will do, maybe even attack me, the emperor.
If they couldn't find an opportunity, they might attack Prince Lu. If Prince Lu died here, things would become very troublesome.
If I kill the prince myself, it will definitely cause a shock to the whole world. Maybe someone will collude with the rebels, and then many things will become unpredictable.
I must avoid this kind of trouble. You know, those people from the White Lotus Sect have been watching in secret, who knows if they will come for me.
After Chen Hong left, Zhu Youxiao sighed helplessly.
Things were somewhat beyond my expectations. I originally thought that King Lu was a smart character, or at least not a fool.
Now it seemed that his plans had been disrupted. The news of Prince Lu's arrival naturally could not be concealed. Everyone knew that His Majesty had summoned Prince Lu, and now that Prince Lu had truly arrived, many people were eager to see what the outcome would be.
Whether it was Xu Guangqi or Huang Kezun, everyone was waiting for the result. However, no one expected that no news would come out and the Prince of Lu was detained by His Majesty.
This is the last news we can get at the moment.
As for what His Majesty and the King of Lu talked about, no one could find out, but no one dared to spread rumors or make guesses.
After returning to the residence arranged by the emperor, the first thing Prince Lu did was to take a bath.
His body was covered in sweat and he was so frightened that his whole body was cold. If he didn't take a bath, he would definitely get sick. In this regard, King Lu was very thoughtful. He wanted to live longer and didn't want to die early like his eldest brother, second brother, and third brother.
If that is really the case, what will happen to his forty-eight wives and concubines?
In this colorful world, in this fascinating life, how can one lose one's life innocently?
After taking a bath, changing clothes, and taking a nourishing pill with the help of others, King Lu finally felt better.
At this time, Chen He finally waited until Prince Lu was free. He carefully came to Prince Lu's side, brought him a cup of tea, and said, "Prince, what did you say? Why did you look like this when you came back?"
"Don't mention it." After taking a sip of tea, Prince Lu said dejectedly, "I almost couldn't come back."
"Shandong is not peaceful. Someone is planning a rebellion! Even His Majesty is alarmed. How bold! Fortunately, His Majesty has come, otherwise we would be in trouble."
"These people are rebelling, and they will definitely not let me go. If the palace is breached, what will happen to my property? What about my forty-eight wives and concubines? Now that His Majesty has arrived, these people can no longer cause any trouble."
Although the Prince of Lu's words were somewhat out of tune, Chen He was already used to it, so he asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, did you say anyone was going to rebel?"
