"Hu Qing went to see Chang Shu, right? How is everything?"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and asked with a smile.

"Replying to Your Majesty, I have seen it and everything is fine. The Imperial Hospital also follows Your Majesty's orders and goes to the Princess's residence every day to diagnose the Princess's pulse. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Hu Weiyong stood up slowly, nodded and said.

"That's good, that's good."

"Tell Hu Fei that since Chang Shu is pregnant, you don't have to be on duty at Jinyi Guard every day. You can spend more time with Chang Shu."

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"The humble minister obeys the decree."

"Your Majesty, I have come here today because I have something to report to Your Majesty, and I ask Your Majesty to grant your permission no matter what."

Hu Weiyong nodded, paused, and said seriously.

"Oh? What's the matter? Tell me."

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment and asked curiously.

"After careful consideration, I intend to resign as prime minister. I hope your majesty will give you permission."

Hu Weiyong took a deep breath, paused for a moment, and said with cupped hands.

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the couch, couldn't help but stand up and looked at Hu Weiyong with a surprised look on his face. Countless emotions flashed through his eyes in an instant.

Pang Yuhai on the side also looked shocked, thinking that he heard wrongly.

Once a prime minister has a high and powerful position, how many people in the world can take the initiative to give up such power? What's more, Hu Weiyong, who has always had power in the government?

"Why so sudden? Hu Qing, are you kidding?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Weiyong and asked with a complicated expression.

This matter has always been on his mind, but when Hu Weiyong personally said that he wanted to resign and retire, he couldn't believe it for a while.

"As a humble minister grows old, he will always have more ambition than strength. If he continues to occupy this position, I am afraid that he will fail His Majesty's trust. It is time to abdicate the throne and make way for someone more worthy."

Hu Weiyong smiled and said seriously.

After hearing Hu Weiyong's confident answer, Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes wide in surprise, making sure that he had heard correctly, but he couldn't understand why Hu Weiyong suddenly made such an important decision.

But at the same time, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The trouble that had been lingering in his heart suddenly became clear...
