On the third day after Zhu Di officially left Beijing, a memorial appeared on Zhu Yuanzhang's desk.

After seeing this, do you guys think this routine looks familiar? As you who are familiar with the Twenty-Four Histories, as you are proficient in Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thirty-Six Strategies, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Journey to the West, illustrated versions of Jin Ping Mei, and Jade Pump, have you guessed something?

You are worthy of being loved by everyone, flowers bloom when they see flowers bloom when they see cars when they see cars. You are omnipotent. Everyone says that my readers are a talented man with pear blossoms that beat the crabapple with both beauty and art. It's really good. Yes, you are right, you guessed that someone has indeed attacked Zhu Di.

This memorial was to impeach Zhu Di, and the reasons for the impeachment were also very sufficient, because Zhu Di had carried out large-scale technical damage to the Jinyiwei's yamen, which directly led to the Jinyiwei's inability to work normally for a long time. In other words, Zhu Di not only hindered the relevant departments from enforcing the law, but also beat and insulted law enforcement personnel, which not only directly caused paralysis of the relevant departments, but also seriously damaged the image of the court.

In short, what Zhu Di did was to despise the court's laws, which was no different from treason. It was of serious nature, had a bad impact, and had to be punished strictly. As for how to deal with it, to apply the words of the great leader of later generations: "The main evil must be dealt with, never ask for threats, be guilty of being coerced, and be rewarded with one blow." Anyway, Zhu Di must be severely punished. Severe punishment must be severe first. The prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people? That is impossible. If the common people did this, they would have been pulled out to the sky and cut another 500 times. Obviously, Zhu Di could not be cut five hundred times. However, although he could not be as strict as the common people, the author of the memorial also gave quite strict standards at the end of the memorial: demoted to the common people, exiled to Lingnan, and never recalled.

If Zhu Yuanzhang adopted the advice of the memorialist, Zhu Di would immediately have nothing and would completely end his political career. After reading this memorial, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned. According to his previous temper, he would just write a word "read" and throw it aside. However, this memorial was not good, because the person who submitted the memorial was really special and his influence was too great. Zhu Yuanzhang had to take it seriously this time. If it was improperly handled or there were obvious loopholes in the approval, there would be problems.

The person who wrote the memorial was Song Shen. He was not very famous, but if you want to mention his grandfather, he was famous. This famous person was Song Lian.

Song Lian can be said to be well-read in poetry and books. His articles can be said to be the best in the Ming Dynasty. He can be regarded as the leader of the literary world in the Ming Dynasty. Don’t think reading is easy. Before the Ming Dynasty, books were actually more than Babel, cool cavalry, and scolded. Ouch, and even more luxurious goods. The families who can read books were either officials or rich rich men. Ordinary people could never afford books. For example, Song Lian, a famous scholar in the early Ming Dynasty, was poor when he was a child, so he could only borrow books from others because his family was poor and could not afford books. Therefore, scholars at that time were very valuable. If poor children could become leaders in the literary world, they were even more like gods.

Mr. Song had resigned from office a year ago and went home to retire. However, although he had left, his reputation was still there. His disciples and old officials were even more numerous. Many outside officials in Beijing were students of Mr. Song. Mr. Song's influence should not be underestimated. Although Song Shen's official position was not high and was just a courtier, because he was Mr. Song's eldest son and grandson of Mr. Song, he naturally inherited Mr. Song's connections, so Song Shen had a high prestige in the court. In addition, his reasons for impeaching Zhu Di were irrefutable. Moreover, because the Hu Weiyong case was too wide affair a while ago, Zhu Yuanzhang and even himself had actually aroused collective disgust from the court officials. Once this memorial was handed over, the court officials would see what you should do in private. If you deal with the ministers so strictly, should you treat your son strictly or leniently?

So after reading the memorial, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. The problems before him were a little tricky. Once Song Shen’s impeachment was really not handled well, it is difficult to guarantee that there would be no collective rebound from court officials. In desperation, Zhu Yuanzhang chose to remain silent.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang's silence did not arouse a large-scale rebound from the court officials, another situation he did not expect followed. This situation quickly came into Zhu Yuanzhang's ears with the report of the Jinyiwei.

This situation is public opinion. Within a few days, Zhu Di's case began to be circulated in the streets and alleys of the capital. The most widely circulated was a folk song "The heroes committed crimes and were punished seriously. The son was wrong. Just smiled and passed by. The king's family was determined, but the prince had no laws." When the new commander of the Jinyiwei, Jiang Huan, gave Zhu Yuanzhang this folk song to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, but after being angry, he immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. This was a satirizing his own law enforcement standards: merit

I am guilty, and no matter whether the evidence is conclusive or not, I will be punished seriously. My son committed a crime and did not even have a basic punishment. However, Zhu Yuanzhang, who knew the world and people's hearts, actually read two levels of meaning from nursery rhymes: the first level is that the prince is not indifferent to the king's law, and the second level is that the emperor holds a public instrument but has selfish intentions and different laws. This will inevitably lead to the dissatisfaction of the people in the world. The first level means that the goal is to Zhu Di, and the second level is to himself, but in the final analysis, the nursery rhyme is talking about himself.

Could it be that someone was secretly manipulating public opinion and public opinion? Zhu Yuanzhang immediately secretly ordered Jiang Huan to investigate with all his might, but after investigation for several days, nothing was found. The nursery rhymes were still spreading, the people were still whispering, and the streets and alleys were still full of doubts about themselves.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was still worried about this, Song Shen's second memorial was handed over. Song Shen's memorial was very interesting and said nothing. He just recorded the most widely circulated folk song on the street, with no word left. The memorial of this short dozen words was as strong as a ten-word book. After Zhu Yuanzhang read it, he was so angry that he almost tore the memorial to pieces. He threw the memorial to the ground. He was still not satisfied and stepped on it again. But even though he was angry, he realized that he had to respond. Not only did he give the court officials, but also to the people of the world.

Therefore, after repeated weighing, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Zhu Di to be summoned back to Beijing.
