From Zhu Biao's sudden death to Li Jie's rescue, the whole process seemed long, and even Li Jie himself felt that the rescue had been for a long time, but in fact it was only about half an hour. It was just that Li Jie was very nervous when he was rescued, and coupled with the fatigue caused by repeated rescue, he felt that time seemed to have passed for a long time.

As the imperial doctor continued to rescue, Zhu Biao's condition finally stabilized. Finally, his eyelids trembled for a few times and finally opened his eyes. His eyes were full of confusion and glanced at the people in front of him and said, "I...what's wrong with me?"

"Biao'er, you are finally awake!" Lao Zhu was so excited that he burst into tears when he saw his lost son. He was never afraid when he went north to flee north. Chen Youliang was not afraid when the army was approaching the border with an absolute advantage, but he was really scared just now. Lao Zhu had already felt this fear once when his wife passed away, and he would never want to feel it again!

"My son is unfilial, so my father is worried!" Zhu Biao looked at Lao Zhu, who was full of tears, and also showed a guilty expression.

"Your Highness, do you feel uncomfortable?" Li Jie also stepped forward with concern and asked. Even if he was rescued, he might cause some sequelae.

"I just feel soft and weak all over now, and my chest seems to hurt a little." Zhu Biao replied again. He was also quite organized when he spoke, and it seemed that his mind should be fine.

"It's normal for chest pain, and you'll recover after a few days of rest!" Li Jie was relieved when he heard this. He had been under the chest compression for so long just now. Although he had tried his best to be careful, it would still inevitably cause Zhu Biao's sternum to be injured and the fracture would not be broken, but the fracture would definitely not be able to escape.

At this time, the imperial doctor also brought the medicine. Lao Zhu personally took it and fed it to Zhu Biao. Soon Zhu Biao showed a drowsy expression. Lao Zhu once again told the imperial doctor to be careful and then deliberately brought Zhu Biao back to his bedroom. He had to watch Zhu Biao with his own eyes these days, otherwise he would not be at ease.

After Li Jie sent Zhu Biao away, he turned around and wanted to find the crime. When Zhu Biao fell ill, he was presenting the crime to Lao Zhu with both hands. As a result, Zhu Biao fell to the ground, and he didn't care about anything else. He threw the crime and rushed over. He was already in the warm room and should be easy to find.

But what Li Jie didn't expect was that he searched for a while but couldn't find the crime. Then he suddenly turned his head and looked at Princess Pucheng with a calm expression, which made him sigh and walked over and whisper: "Come it!"

"What are you going to do?" Princess Pucheng pretended to be stupid.

"The matter of King Qin must be settled. You have suffered so much. Do you still want to see someone repeat your tragedy?" Li Zaoguang looked at Princess Pucheng solemnly and asked.

Under Li Jie's gaze, Princess Pucheng's eyes turned red, and finally she silently took out the crime she had just hidden from her arms.

Li Jie took Zhu Ceng's crime, then stepped forward to Lao Zhu again, and presented his hands and said, "Please ask your Majesty to judge!"

"One of my sons almost died just now. Do you want to force me to execute another son?" Lao Zhu, who had just recovered from grief, was angry again when he heard this. However, compared to before, Lao Zhu's anger this time, he no longer had murderous aura, but was a little more heartbroken.

"Your Majesty, I don't want to force you to execute your son, but the King of Qin is extremely guilty. If you let it go, where is the laws of the court and where is the majesty of Your Majesty..."

"Stop!" Before Li Jie finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lao Zhu who was furious again, "You kept saying that it was for me and for the court, but you forced me desperately just now, and even the prince almost died because of this. Do you still want to see that I was forced to get sick by you?"

"Don't your Majesty understand? The reason why the prince became ill is actually a big reason because of the King of Qin. When officials in Xi'an presented this crime, the prince was in a dilemma. On the one hand, he was unable to let go of his brotherly affection and on the other hand, his own conscience. This made the prince suffer at all times. It was this torment that led to the illness today!" Li Jie said calmly again.

In fact, the reason why Li Jie was so determined was not only to deal with the King of Qin, but also to alert Lao Zhu and let him take care of his sons.

The vassal kings in the early Ming Dynasty held great power, and Lao Zhu had many sons. It was not a minority who were rampant in the local area. This had nothing to do with their abilities, but Lao Zhu kept pretending to be invisible. It can be said that the vassal kings' dominance was actually the result of Lao Zhu's indulgence.

Lao Zhu looked at Li Jie with a calm face, but the anger in his heart began to churn again, and there was a little murderous intent to brew. If it were another person, he would have ordered the other party to be killed, but he was really reluctant to face Li Jie.

After a while, Lao Zhu suppressed the anger in his heart, stared at Li Jie with a cold look and asked, "Isn't it too much to let me convict the King of Qin just by just one complaint?"

"Every crime committed by the King of Qin is true. If Your Majesty does not believe it, you can send the Jinyiwei to check it!" Li Jie said without fear at all. Although he had not been in Xi'an for a long time, he also verified a lot of Zhu Ceng's crimes. It was too easy to find evidence.

"Hmph, I'm asking you for evidence now. You actually asked me to send someone to investigate?" Lao Zhu suddenly snorted coldly and acted as a scoundrel. He knew there was evidence, but he insisted that Li Jie take it out now. This was just intentionally making things difficult for him.

Li Jie was also caught off guard by Lao Zhu's move, and stood on the spot in shock for a moment. He did not expect that an emperor would actually play a rogue with him.

"I have evidence!" However, at this moment, a crisp sound suddenly sounded behind Li Jie, and then Princess Pucheng walked forward and stood side by side with Li Jie and said, "Grandpa Emperor wants evidence, and his granddaughter can take it out now!"

"Bold, do you know how serious it is to sue your father in Pucheng?" Lao Zhu saw that his granddaughter was standing on Li Jie's side, and immediately couldn't help but roar again.

According to the Ming Dynasty law, if children sue their parents, if what they sue is not true, they will be sentenced to hang. Even if what they sue is true, the children will have to rely on one hundred and then exil to three years. Therefore, in Lao Zhu's view, Pucheng's report on Zhu Ze now is simply a rebellious act.

Li Jie didn't expect that Princess Pucheng actually stood up and looked at him in surprise. She saw Princess Pucheng say again without fear: "Of course, my granddaughter knows that it is a serious crime for her son to avenge her father, but even so, her granddaughter still wants to say that in the eleventh year of Hongwu, the father had just ordered hundreds of households around the royal palace to move in Xi'an. If anyone refuses to follow, he will immediately get a beating. Therefore, thirteen people were beaten to death and thirty-six people were beaten..."

Princess Pucheng told the crimes committed by Zhu Ceng one by one. Compared with the crimes at Li Jie, the crimes she talked about not only have time and place, but also the number and names of the victims, and those who are alive can also be used as witnesses.

However, every time Pucheng said something, Lao Zhu's face turned ugly, and his eyes turned red again, looking like a beast that chose people to eat. He was angry about the crimes committed by Zhu Ceng, and even more angry why Princess Pucheng recorded these crimes so clearly, and why did she remember them for?

Princess Pucheng said at the end and bowed to Lao Zhu again and said, "Grandpa Emperor, all these are all committed by my father. There are all evidences and physical evidences. If these are not enough, I still have some evidence!"

When Princess Pucheng said this, she suddenly turned her back and then reached out to lightly pull her clothes away, revealing her fair and jade-like back. However, there were several interlaced scars on her skin, which should have been extremely smooth. It was the scar left by Zhu Lu's whipping her. Li Jie looked at it and immediately turned his head away.

"You...you..." Lao Zhu looked at the hideous scar on his granddaughter's back, and was anxious for a while. After a long time, he collapsed on the chair and said, "How much do you hate your father? You want to treat him to death like this?"

Princess Pucheng pulled her clothes on at this time. When she turned around, Li Jie found that she was crying. She first looked at Li Jie next to her with tears, and then a sense of determination burst out in her eyes and said again: "Grandpa Emperor really wants to know how much I hate my father?"

Li Jie finally turned his head when he heard this, and a bad premonition surged into his heart, which made him instinctively step forward to block Princess Pucheng and whisper: "Don't do stupid things!"

However, the response to Li Jie was Princess Pucheng's desolate smile. She just wanted to stop Li Jie, but Li Jie had her own persistence. Now Li Jie wanted to stop her, but she also had her own ideas!

Princess Pucheng walked around Li Jie, took out something from her arms and placed it in front of Lao Zhu and said, "Grandpa Emperor, please see!"

"What are you going to show me the wine glass?" Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at his granddaughter and asked. Princess Pucheng actually put a wine glass made of gold in front of him. This was really inexplicable.

"This is not just a wine glass, but also a weapon to assassinate my father!" Princess Pucheng said again decisively. Li Jie behind her also closed her eyes and sighed. The situation he was most worried about finally happened.

"What?" Old Zhu stood up suddenly when he heard this, and immediately slapped the table and said angrily, "Who has such a courage to assassinate my son?"

"It's me!" Princess Pucheng smiled sadly again, "Don't the emperor want to know how much I hate my father? Then I will tell you now that I hate him so much that I want to kill him with my own hands. In fact, I did the same, but I was stopped by one person!"
