Chapter 302: Apprehended by Order(1/2)
Royal Palace.
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
"Pang Yuhai!?"
The angry Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head to look at Pang Yuhai, who was already pale, with red eyes, and shouted sternly.
"The slave is here!"
Pang Yuhai trembled all over and responded hurriedly.
"Send an order to inspect the school and arrest Hu Fei immediately!"
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Pang Yuhai and said loudly.
"Slave obeys the order!"
When Pang Yuhai heard this, he couldn't help being stunned, and then he hurriedly agreed and immediately retreated.
After watching Pang Yuhai leave, Xu Da, who was standing with a bow, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Because the angry Zhu Yuanzhang kept breathing heavily, walking back and forth, his face gloomy.
Xu Da stood there quietly without saying another word.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang finally calmed down and turned to look at Xu Da again.
"Xu Qing! You should know the consequences of this matter. Are you willing to take responsibility for what you just said?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Xu Da and asked word by word.
He knew very well that once it was determined that Hu Fei had the intention to rebel, this matter would no longer be Hu Fei's alone, but would inevitably involve Prime Minister Hu Weiyong, and once Hu Weiyong was involved, it would inevitably affect the whole body.
.
Therefore, there is no room for error in this matter.
"Reporting to your majesty, what I just said is true! If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can now ask the Wenxian Hall to bring over the test papers that Hu Fei answered in the three exams one by one and review them in person."
Xu Da bowed and said decisively.
"Someone is coming!"
After hearing Xu Da's words, Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and looked outside the hall, and said loudly.
Soon, a young eunuch quickly walked into the hall.
"Send an order to the Wenxian Hall and ask Cai Yuanji to bring Hu Fei's three examination papers to the palace immediately!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the young eunuch and said in a deep voice.
The young eunuch hurriedly and respectfully agreed and immediately went to the Wenxian Hall.
...
North Street.
Hong Bin Building.
In the main hall of the backyard, Hu Fei sat quietly on a chair, holding a cup of tea, having not had a sip for a long time.
He didn't expect that things would reach this stage, and he couldn't help but regret the poem he wrote on a whim at that time.
Princess Anqing stood aside, holding Hu Fei's hand nervously, with a worried look on her face. Hu Fei had already told her the whole story.
"Master?"
At this moment, Pei Jie appeared at the door, whispered and winked.
Hu Fei frowned, signaled Princess Anqing to wait where she was, stood up and came to the door.
On the stone steps, Pei Jie, Chun Die and others all stood aside, their faces solemn.
In addition, there is Xiao An.
Seeing Xiao An, Hu Fei realized that something must have happened.
"Xu Da has already entered the palace. The matter may have been exposed. The school inspector is on his way."
"If you want to leave, I can take you away now. No one can stop me."
Xiao An looked at Hu Fei and whispered.
Hearing Xiao An's words, Hu Fei couldn't help but frown and turned to look at Princess Anqing who was staying in the main hall.
"I can't leave."
Hu Fei smiled, shook his head and said.
Knowing that Xu Da had entered the palace, he already knew that it would not be so easy to get away with it this time, but he could not leave. If he left, he would be found guilty of treason.
By then the Hu family will be finished, and all the efforts made before will be in vain. Many people will die as a result, including Pei Jie, Chun Die and others in front of them. Even if they don't die, they will have no choice but to flee to the end of the world.
He couldn't leave Hu Weiyong alone to clean up this mess, let alone Princess Anqing.
Therefore, no matter what, he will not leave. Since he caused the matter himself, he should bear it, no matter what the price.
Moreover, he is not a timid person who runs away when trouble comes. He has been through it so many times, and he will definitely be able to survive it smoothly this time.
At this moment, there was a burst of noisy footsteps outside the back door.
"Okay, I respect your decision."
"But now that the matter has been exposed, you'd better think about how to deal with it next."
Xiao An nodded and said seriously, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and dozens of people suddenly broke in through the back door.
As someone broke into the door, Xiao An, who was standing on the stone steps, disappeared.
Seeing someone breaking in, Pei Jie and Chun Die immediately rushed out and stopped under the stone steps. Dong Yan and Mu Ping were also there.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man slowly walked out of the crowd who broke in from the back door, holding a long knife, and walked straight in front of Chundie and Pei Jie.
It’s none other than the school inspection commander, Han Jiang!
"Back off!"
Seeing Han Jiang step forward, Pei Jie and Chun Die were ready to take action, but then they heard a sharp shout from Hu Fei and had no choice but to stop.
At the same time, Princess Anqing, who was originally waiting in the main hall, also walked out quickly.
When Princess Anqing saw this scene in front of her, her expression suddenly changed and she hurriedly stood in front of Hu Fei.
"What are you going to do?!"
Princess Anqing stared at Han Jiang and said loudly.
"Han Jiang, the commander of the Weichen Inspection School, has met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
Seeing Princess Anqing, Han Jiang hurriedly bowed and said loudly.
"He is the future prince-in-law! What do you want to do?!"
Princess Anqing ignored Han Jiang's salute and asked loudly.
"Return to Your Majesty the Princess, Marquis Jiu'an, I will follow your Majesty's instructions and arrest Marquis Jiu'an and bring him to justice!"
Han Jiang cupped his hands, glanced at Princess Anqing and Hu Fei, and said in a deep voice.
"Let me see who dares!?"
Princess Anqing's face turned red, she opened her arms to protect Hu Fei behind her, stared at Han Jiang, and shouted excitedly.
"Chang Shu."
At this time, Hu Fei said softly, grabbed Princess Anqing's hand and put it down, then turned Princess Anqing around.
"Don't be like this, they are on a mission and cannot be stopped."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'll be back soon."
Hu Fei forced out a smile, looked at Princess Anqing, and said softly.
"But..."
Princess Anqing turned her head and glanced at the dozens of aggressive school inspectors. Her face was still full of worry, and she was so anxious that she almost cried.
"Okay, if I say it's okay, it'll be okay. Trust me."
"Go back to the palace early and wait for my return."
Hu Fei smiled and shook his head, said slowly, then reached out and touched Princess Anqing's head, and glanced at Dong Yan next to her.
Dong Yan understood immediately and stepped forward to pull Princess Anqing aside.
"After I leave, I will go back and inform the old man and apologize to him on my behalf. I have caused trouble for him again. This time it is my fault."
"But you must tell him that no matter what His Majesty will do to me, he cannot protect me! Remember!"
Then, Hu Fei glanced at Pei Jie and lowered his voice.
To be continued...
