Daming: In the beginning, he mistakenly regarded Emperor Yongle as his own father

"Your Majesty, I came to disturb His Majesty's rest today because I have something important to report to Your Majesty."

"You say it."

"Although I didn't find Jianwen, I got the news, and there is one person who knows."

Zhu Di didn't give any hope at first, but when he heard this, he suddenly regained his energy.

Everyone stood up.

"What are you talking about, does anyone know Jianwen's whereabouts? Who is it?"

"Back to the emperor, this person is called Puqia."

"Pu Qia?"

Zhu Di is quite unfamiliar with this name and has never heard of it.

He was neither an official of the imperial court nor an old minister of Jianwen, so how could he know Jianwen's whereabouts.

"Who is this?"

Hu Wei hesitated for a while, as if there was something unspeakable.

But in the end it was true.

"Return to Your Majesty, this person used to be the chief assistant of the cabinet, Yang Shiqi's disciple."

"Yang Shiqi?"

When Zhu Di heard this, he was in a bad mood.

Chapter 268 Yang Shiqi's Disaster

Zhu Di never expected that the person who knew Jianwen's whereabouts would be Yang Shiqi's protégé.

For a moment, he didn't know whether to be surprised or frightened.

Yang Shiqi, the chief minister of my cabinet, one of my most trusted ministers, actually...

Seeing that the emperor's complexion was not good, Hu Wei immediately opened his mouth to explain.

"Your Majesty, this person left Nanjing when His Majesty ascended the throne, and returned to his hometown to become a master. According to my investigation, he has not had any contact with Lord Yang for a long time."

Hu Wei didn't dare to excuse Yang Shiqi, so he could only tell the truth about the matter.

When Zhu Di heard this, his face softened a little.

But this does not mean that he is completely sure that Yang Qi has nothing to do with this matter, after all this Pu Qia is Yang Shiqi's disciple.

But Yang Shiqi never said anything in advance in front of him, let alone said that Puqia had something to do with Jianwen.

"This Puqia, where is he now?"

"Going back to the emperor, still in his hometown, I didn't dare to disturb the local government, for fear of scaring the snake."

Hu Wei was still very cautious, he followed Puqia for three whole months just to see if he would meet Jianwen.

But this Puqia, I don't know if he is really innocent, or if he is hiding something deep.

For three whole months, he was almost alone, without a wife or children, or even a friend or relative.

The more this was the case, the more Hu Min felt suspicious of him.

Although his talent is not shocking, but just because he is Yang Shiqi's disciple, he is enough to be an official. Why did he want to leave Yang Shiqi and go back to that desolate place to be a little boss?

Among them, there must be problems.

Zhu Di also agreed with Hu Wei's conjecture that there must be a demon when things go wrong.

Even if Pu Qia is really indifferent to fame and wealth, but the size of the owner is a tolerance, and it is more than enough to marry a wife and have children in such a small place.

But he is old, but still alone, which inevitably makes people suspicious.

Zhu Di took off his waist badge and asked him to dispatch troops to bring the man back.

But Hu Wei did not accept the order, but knelt down and said.

"Your Majesty, this subject cannot come forward."

"If Puqia doesn't know the whereabouts of Jianwen, or if he knows and refuses to tell, then I have to continue looking for Jianwen."

"If the identity is exposed at this time, it will be inconvenient to act in the future."

Zhu Di was awakened by these words.

"Ai Qing is right, I was confused."

He was so impatient that he almost lost his mind.

It is difficult to find another person like Hu Wei who is not afraid of hardships, does not ask for rewards, and silently finds Jianwen for him.

And he is taciturn, a person who can keep secrets firmly.

"Then you go first, and I will take care of the rest."

Hu Wei led the order to withdraw.

Come quietly, leave quietly, in the barracks, except for Zhu Di's personal bodyguards, no one knows that he has appeared.

But there is one exception, that is King Han.

Coincidentally, the King of Han couldn't sleep at night, so he went out to hunt a hare on purpose, and after roasting it, he wanted to take it back to honor the old man.

Recently, I found that the old man was not in good spirits, probably because of the bumpy road and bad food, so he came up with the idea of ​​roasting rabbits for him.

Unexpectedly, he ran into Hu Wei who sneaked into the barracks in the middle of the night.

He knows Hu Wei. Two years ago, the old man sent him out on the grounds of looking for an elixir.

I came back suddenly today, did I really find the elixir of immortality?

Out of curiosity, the king of Han secretly ran to eavesdrop.

Although I know that if the old man finds out, he will inevitably be scolded.

But driven by curiosity, you can just scold them. Anyway, since childhood, the old man scolded their brothers, just like eating vegetables, almost every day.

He's used to it too.
