When Xia Xun was arrested, Liu Yujue was not in the city.
Because the firearms craftsman is not very safe, so it is located in a col far away from the city, when he learned the news that Xia Xun was arrested and put in prison, he was anxious, immediately returned to the city quickly, and rushed to Jinyiwei.
In Liu Yujue's mind, but anyone who has been imprisoned, whether you are the general minister, will be tortured, if Ji Gang does not miss the old feelings, I am afraid that Xia Xun has suffered enough now, and I didn't expect to rush in and take a look, Xia Xun was drinking wine and playing chess, looking leisurely, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Ji Gang smiled: "You guys talk first, I'll go out for a while" Ji Gang turned around and left, and Liu Yujue hurriedly grabbed Xia Xun and asked long questions.
After hearing the details of the incident, Liu Yujue couldn't help but scratch her head.
He frowned and thought for a long time, and said: "Guogong, the other party has witnesses and physical evidence, and even detained a boatload of people and goods, this matter is indeed tricky.
But since the emperor has not yet tried this case, we can always do some measures in advance to protect the public of the whole country as much as possible.
There is a way to do it, but I don't know if it's feasible. ” The method Liu Yujue said is actually similar to Zhu Gaochi's idea, which is the usual method used by the top officials in the officialdom: gecko tail breaking In Liu Yujue's view, the other party has witnesses, physical evidence, and even detained a whole boatload of people, it is almost impossible to overturn the case, and the only way is to find someone to top the tank and abandon the pawn to protect the handsome.
He didn't know if Xia Xun had such a person around him who had suffered for the Lord, or he could pass the buck and make the other party have no argument, and even said to Xia Xun that if there was really no suitable candidate, he was willing to apologize for the country.
Tell him what he ought to know, lest he slip through.
Liu Yujue's true feelings were revealed, Xia Xun was very moved in his eyes, in his opinion, although Ji Gang took good care of him, there may not be a little bit of affection in the past, and Liu Yujue is a good brother who does not care about any interests and plans for him.
However, he has already arranged this matter, but he does not need Liu Yujue to be involved.
Xia Xun smiled: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have already arranged for someone to do it."
You see, I haven't suffered anything here, so there's no need to worry.
I am the prince of the country, I will not be punished without teaching, as long as I am interrogated, there will be a chance for the truth to be revealed, hehe, these days, I should cultivate my surname here" Liu Yujue was skeptical, but seeing that Xia Xun was not flustered and calm, he had no choice but to listen to it.
The two talked for a while, and Ji Gang hurriedly turned back and said, "Guogong, someone has come to the palace, announce that you will enter the palace to meet you." ” Ji Gang went out to send his henchmen to send the news that Xia Xun had decided to support His Royal Highness, and he didn't want to bump into the people sent by the palace, so he quickly stabilized the person who came, saying that he would come to the prison to pick up people in person, and rushed back.
Xia Xun frowned slightly and said, "So fast" said and walked forward.
Ji Gang chuckled and said, "Presumably, His Royal Highness has persuaded the queen mother to change his mind."
Guogong, it's not wrong to say that you are humble, no matter how you choose Guogong, His Royal Highness will help you. ” Xia Xun said: "Presumably so, then I'll go to the palace." ” He paused, looked at Ji Gang again, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, please reply on my behalf, right now Yang Xu is the target of everyone, it is not appropriate to go to visit, wait for this matter, when the wind and waves are calm."
Ji Gang understood, and said with his head bowed: "I understand my humble duties" Xia Xun is the prince of the country and the emperor's courtier, and the relationship with the prince is relatively transcendent, and now since he has agreed to support the emperor's eldest son, he is equivalent to Zhu Gaochi's disciple, so he should naturally show due respect.
Liu Yujue was very nervous when he heard that the emperor had summoned Xia Xun into the palace, but when he saw the two whispering, although he couldn't hear the content clearly, the two looked calm and not nervous, and there must be no danger, so he also settled down. stepped forward and said: "Guogong must be careful, the lowly post is here to wait for the news of Guogong" Ji Gang said: "Okay, you go to my yashang to sit, and I will send the prince into the palace."
Xia Xun entered the palace, wearing a crumpled prison uniform, his hair was unkempt, and he had a few straws in his bun.
It took the cell boss in the edict less than a quarter of an hour to dress him up.
Most of the guards in the palace knew this Fuguo Gong, who was born in the brocade guard system and was in charge of the palace forbidden yamen, and when they saw him like this, they all looked at him sympathetically.
It's just that people go to high places, and I don't know if they can hold on to this kind of consciousness until tomorrow morning, when hundreds of officials gather.
In the hall, Zhu Di was reviewing the chapters.
Every day, he would spend most of the day in the morning and in the afternoon in the temple of the body until he had finished his high recital.
Although this throne is the throne that countless people yearn for, if you want to be an emperor who can make a difference, it is actually not as good as an idle prince.
"Your Majesty, Yang Xu brought" Mu En stood at the door and reported, Zhu Di raised his head and ordered, "Bring him in" Mu En responded, and after a while, he led Xia Xun into the hall, Xia Xun stepped into the threshold, his lips trembled, and when he raised his eyes to see Zhu Di, he immediately grabbed three steps, lifted his robe, and sobbed on the ground: "Weichen Yang Xu, knock on the emperor" Zhu Di looked at Xia Xun's tearful and choked nest appearance, he was angry, he put the pen on the pen holder with a click, and snorted heavily: "You also know that you are afraid that you know what is wrong today, why bother at that time."
He slapped the royal case on the ground, and said sadly: "I was on the Golden Palace, I put my heart in my heart, and Yin Yin told the heroes of Jingnan, you must not be arrogant and arrogant, let alone arrogant and pervert the law, have you heard that I hope to be reconciled with your monarchs and ministers, and I hope that your glory and wealth can rest with the country, but what have you done?"
Zhu Di stood up and said sharply: "Do you remember that I said that the monarch responds to heaven and things, once he sits in the country, he is not only the monarch of the heroes, but the monarch of the whole world, and the whole world is the monarch's people, and he cannot be biased, and the heroes who violate the law must be severely punished.
He glanced at Xia Xun again, slowly raised his head, and said gloomily: "The law of the country is ruthless, and the souls of tens of thousands of people in Xiangshan County are watching from the sky, I can't spare you."
The only thing I can do is to make sure that your family is safe and secure, and you can go with peace of mind."
Xia Xun didn't shout injustice when he came in, and deliberately made a tearful surname, Zhu Di, who was already preconceived, misunderstood, thinking that as expected, Xia Xun did everything possible to see him, and sure enough, it was to beg for forgiveness, and he was disappointed and sad for a while.
Xia Xun said secretly in his heart when he heard this: "His grandmother's has overacted" He hurriedly put away the tears that he was holding back, and said in surprise: "What crime does the minister have to ask to see the emperor today, not to ask the emperor for forgiveness."
As soon as the minister entered the palace, he called himself a micro-minister, but he didn't call himself a criminal minister."
"Hmm" Zhu Di Huo Ran turned his head to look at Yang Xu: "You are not asking for forgiveness for your sins" Xia Xun kowtowed with one head and shouted loudly: "The minister is not guilty, the minister is wronged."
Zhu Di's eyes flashed, and he asked urgently: "Then the Luzon merchant said that he was protected by you and trafficked in illicit goods, is there no such thing?"
Xia Xun just wanted to speak, suddenly showed an alert look, glanced at Zhu Di left and right, Zhu Di understood, waved his hand, and the palace ladies and maids who were waiting in the palace retreated, Xia Xun said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the Luzon merchant is indeed protected by the ministers" "Hmm" "Your Majesty, not only the Luzon merchants, but also Joseon, Yuben, Ryukyu, Annam, and Manraka all have several merchant ships that are protected by their vassals."
As soon as he said this, Zhu Di was not angry, it was obvious that there must be limited affection inside.
He looked Xia Xun up and down, walked back to the imperial case and sat down, and ordered: "Get up and tell me the reason."
"Yes" Xia Xun stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers have been in charge of the flying dragon by holy decree, and they have always been in charge of detecting Jianwen's whereabouts. ” Zhu Di's eyes flickered, he didn't speak, he was not afraid of Zhu Yunwen, but Zhu Yunwen's was indeed a piece of his heart disease, and the power of this heart disease did not come from Zhu Yunwen's waste, but from the Taoism he represented.
Qianfu pointed out, nothing happened, even in modern times, what ruler doesn't care about right and wrong, let alone that era.
Xia Xun said: "The minister is a civil matter, the poor and the poor fall into the Yellow Spring, all over the world, and found a lot of news about his whereabouts, but they are confirmed one by one, and they are all lost.
Later, the minister found a clue that there were people who went to sea by boat from Fuzhou, Fujian Province shortly after His Majesty ascended the throne.

Therefore, the minister needs to confirm whether he has fled overseas."
"Overseas" Zhu Di's eyes flickered, and he nodded slowly: "Yes, I have won the world, and only by escaping to the sea can I escape my pursuit."
During the Tang Dynasty, the bearded guest failed in the struggle for hegemony, went overseas, and killed the rest of the country to stand on his own.
Xia Xun said: "But even if it's just in my Ming Dynasty, with the current strength of the flying dragon, the far place of the Tiangao Emperor can't be full of ears and eyes, let alone overseas foreign lands, even if you can send a few people, going to a foreign land is tantamount to working in the sea, but if you have the help of the locals, it will be different."
It would be much easier for them to help find out a few strangers who had suddenly settled there.
And if they want to be used by the emperor, they must always be allowed some benefits, and the emperor also knows that Shuangyu Island has some smuggling business, and the road is barren, and more than 100,000 people depend on it to live.
The minister just gave a promise to the ready-made foreign merchants and coaxed them to do things for the court."
It is impossible to find a few merchants from the smugglers who were originally fixed in Shuangyu for their own use, and they cannot come up with something competitive.
The dynasty is an official-based society, and even now, if you want to participate in a large company, outsiders can not know, ordinary employees can not know, and the chairman of those companies can not know whose child he is However, the Luzon merchant was unexpectedly robbed and revealed his identity, which was indeed beyond his expectations, and Lu Mingzhi was indeed too pretentious.
However, since the incident happened, it was simply solved once and for all to completely solve this trouble, so Xia Xun had the above words.
Although he had the purpose of making personal gains, when he searched for the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen, there were indeed clues that Zhu Yunwen might have fled overseas, and Feilong's people had indeed inquired about foreign businessmen who had a relationship with him, and asked them to pay attention to the news of the Ming emigrants on their behalf.
These two things were originally being done at the same time, and the search for Zhu Yunwen was recorded in the archives, and he was not afraid of the emperor's investigation.
Zhu Di really didn't expect to get such an answer, no wonder Xia Xun would rather go to prison in front of Chen Ying, Ji Gang, and Mu En, than say the real reason, unless he saw himself, it turned out that he was for a while, Zhu Di didn't know what it was like, and after a while, he made up his mind and asked: "So, Xu Hu of Shuangyu Island has given you a heavy gift and befriended you, but there is such a thing."
Xia Xun said: "There is a gift, if he gives a few fresh fish and two lobsters to the minister, it will also be regarded as a heavy gift."
Oh no, there is a great gift."
Xia Xun slapped his forehead, as if he remembered something, and said: "If you want to talk about heavy gifts, there has been one, Xu Hu has given the minister a three-foot-high coral, but although this coral is a rare thing for inland people, it is really nothing for people who have lived on the island for a long time, if you have to say that there is a heavy gift, then the minister has only received such a one."
Zhu Di narrowed his eyes and asked slowly: "You are not mistaken, there is more than that, recorded in the account books found by Taicang Wei."
Xia Xun smiled bitterly: "It's the first time I've heard that a group of pirates have the habit of keeping accounts.
The minister is real gold and is not afraid of fire, if this account book is true, it is Xu Hu's forgery; If this book is false, then" Zhu Di immediately heard his voice, and suddenly thought of a more far-reaching question, he suddenly realized that under the fog of this public case, he didn't know how many scandals were hidden.
After a while, Zhu Di asked: "What do you think about the collusion of Shuangyuwei with the Japanese Kou?"
Xia Xun immediately said: "The minister doesn't know, the people of Shuangyuwei are recruited by the minister, and the relationship with the minister is indeed closer."
But there was really no reason for the minister to care about what Shuangyuwei was doing all day long.
However, Yichen's understanding of Shuangyuwei, because of the emperor's kindness, allowed Shuangyuwei merchant ships to come and go, so that their families had no worries about food and clothing.
Even if they are treated disrespectfully in terms of armaments, they will not oppose it."
Zhu Di's face changed, he glanced at Xia Xun again, and said slowly: "Go in, you have to have a name; Come out, you also need a name.
Let you be wronged and stay in prison for two more days.
Two days later, the Three Law Divisions and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies tried the case, and I asked Gao Chi and Gao Xu to supervise the trial on my behalf. ” "Minister, obey the order" Xia Xun shook to the ground, and when he looked up again, he saw that Zhu Di's expression seemed to be much darker.
After coming out of the palace, Ji Gang, who was waiting outside the palace gate, immediately couldn't wait to greet him: "Guogong, how is it?"
Xia Xun said: "Two days later, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies will be tried in conjunction with the Three Law Divisions, and the two princes will be supervised, hehe, I still have to disturb you for two days." ” Ji Gang listened to Xia Xun's ridiculous words, and said with a smile: "That's okay, it's just close to the Guogong, but I still have to entrust the Guogong." ” As he spoke, he accompanied Xia Xun to the prisoner car, and asked with some anxiety: "The trial will be held in two days, is the prince ready, are you sure?"
Xia Xun smiled and said, "For a gentleman, you should treat him like a gentleman; Treat villains as villains.
When they come with guns and arrows, I can't reassure him, and this battle will not wipe him out, but will also hurt his vitality."
