85_85279 I regret my gaffe, and at this time it is irretrievable, so I have to stand aside and keep silent.

Several children saw Zhu Di's face change, and all of them became restrained, I stood with my head down, for fear that he would be in trouble at this time, but I didn't expect him to just look at me twice, and said to Zhu Yuying to learn the piano hard and left with the son.

I breathed a long sigh of relief, only to realize that my back was cold - it turned out that I was so nervous that I had a cold sweat and wet my clothes, which would be wet on my back.

Zhu Yuying sat down by the piano and muttered incomprehensibly, "Why is my father suddenly displeased?" Wasn't it still in high spirits just now? Do you know why, Mr. Helian? ”

"How do I know? The prince is in a hurry, probably thinking of something difficult. I replied worriedly.

All day, I was afraid that Zhu Di would come over and question me, so I absentmindedly sent Zhu Yuying away, and in a trance at night, I asked Zhu'er to light a candle for me, and sent her away to sit in front of the window and ponder.

Just as I was losing my mind, suddenly a figure flickered, and a man's voice came from my ears, "What are you thinking?" The person who came was dressed in a black night suit, and his face was also covered with a black scarf, revealing only a pair of bright eyes.

I stood up, looked out the window, closed the door, and then turned around and tore off the black scarf on his face, revealing an angular, resolute face.

Looking at Yuelong City with a frosty body in front of me, I was a little surprised, "Why are you here at this time?" ”

"The emperor got a secret report that King Yan was guarding Beiping alone, and he was very ambitious, and it was very likely that he would set up a private arsenal, so we could find out where this arsenal was." He said with a solemn face.

"Although King Yan is brave, the big crime of hiding the arsenal is not something that can be peaceful!" I frowned, "It's just routine that we've been ordered to spy on the palace here. If you also listen to the rumors and put such a charge on King Yan, the crime is true, how can King Yan also be a prince, and the emperor will not punish him; The crime is false, if it gets out, will we still have a way to live? Yuelong City, I have said many times, Mingzhe protects himself! ”

The face of Yue Longcheng in front of him was no less sad than mine, and he sighed and said, "The mission of our Jinyiwei is to complete the tasks assigned above, regardless of cause and effect, regardless of reason, obedience is the only principle." Seeing that I didn't answer, he said, "You just have to look for it." Don't worry so much. It's one thing to not find it, and it's our dereliction of duty not to find it. ”

I knew that he was only subject to others, and arguing with him would only add to his troubles, so I had to nod, "I know." ”

Yue Longcheng saw that I had softened, and he was no longer aggressive, so he suddenly changed his tone and said softly, "Helian, a person in this palace, you must take care of yourself, and you must be more cautious, so as not to make mistakes, the mansion is heavily guarded, and on the fifteenth day of every month in the future, if you have anything to report, come to me at the tea shop on the corner of North Street, if I am not there, you can write down the news and hand it to the old man who pulls the erhu." It's not early, I'm leaving, you should rest early. ”

Looking at his back as he disappeared into the night, I didn't feel sleepy, took out a notebook from under the bed, and wrote:

In the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu, on the third day of the ninth month, it was a full nine years and three months since the fifteenth year of Hongwu. Helian Yi is nearly eighteen years old, and I haven't found a way to go back yet.

When I wrote this, I was distraught and closed the notebook.

Nine years and three months ago, when I was a high school history teacher, I took my students to a summer camp to visit the tomb of Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, and inexplicably traveled to the Hongwu period more than 600 years ago!
