Hu Jiang led people back to Li Zhu's house, but on the way to come, he looked at Mao Xiang in front of him from time to time, originally he thought that with Zhu Yunxi's presence, he could protect Li Zhu's family, but he didn't expect Mao Xiang to be so stubborn that he didn't even give the face of the emperor and grandson.

"Stop coming!" As soon as Hu Jiang and Mao Xiang came to the door, a guard in the palace immediately stepped forward to stop them.

"Jinyi Wei handled the case at the behes of His Majesty, who would dare to stop him?" Mao Xiang didn't give face at all, and rushed inside.

The Jinyi guard was originally one of the palace guards, and the two guards guarding the door also knew Mao Xiang, the commander of the Jinyi guard, and now seeing him break in, they didn't dare to step forward to stop him for a while.

However, when he saw that Mao Xiang was about to step into the courtyard gate, he saw Zhu Yunxi walking out of the room, and when he saw Mao Xiang, he couldn't help but have a sinking face and said: "Commander Mao is so powerful that even the people around this king dare to scold?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, see the county king!" Mao Xiang saw Zhu Yunxi and immediately stopped, and then saluted respectfully.

"Do you still know that I'm the king of the county?" Zhu Yunxi also sneered at this time, and at the same time straightened up and asked forcefully again, "Didn't this king already warn you just now, let you do whatever you should do, why do you still want to come here?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, Li Zhu's family is a prisoner of the imperial court, and the lower officials are also acting on the orders of His Majesty!" Mao Xiang replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"On orders? Could it be that the imperial grandfather personally issued an order for you to arrest Li Zhu's family? Zhu Yunxi asked in a cold voice again.

"Han Gong Li Shanchang participated in Hu Weiyong's rebellion case, and now the evidence is conclusive, all people related to Han Gong and others need to be arrested, Li Zhu is the son of Han Gong, of course, he is also arrested!" Mao Xiang replied again.

"Bastard, Li Jie is the brother-in-law of this king, if you want to arrest their family now, do you also want to arrest me too?" Zhu Yunxi scolded angrily when he heard this.

"His Royal Highness the King of the County is serious, if you commit a crime, you will have your own Zongren Mansion to decide, and of course the lower officials have no right to deal with it!" Mao Xiang said with a smile, the so-called Zongren Mansion is an institution dedicated to managing the affairs of the royal clan, originally called Dazongzheng Temple, but it was renamed Zongren Mansion last year, and Zhu Zhang, the king of Qin, was appointed Dazongzheng.

"You...... You use the Zongren Mansion to threaten this king? Although Zhu Yunxi was young, he also heard the meaning of Mao Xiang's words, and asked loudly with a red face at the moment.

"The lower officials don't dare, they just tell the truth, and the lower officials have the emperor's order, and please don't stop His Royal Highness the county king!" Mao Xiang replied with a smile again, it was too easy for him to deal with a child like Zhu Yunxi who had not grown up.

After Mao Xiang finished speaking, he raised his feet and was about to walk into the courtyard, even if Zhu Yunxi's status was noble, Jinyiwei had always only listened to the orders of His Majesty the Emperor when handling cases, and the others were not taken into account by them at all.

However, before Mao Xiang's feet fell, he saw a girl's cold voice from the living room: "Jinyiwei is so bold that he dares to threaten the royal family!" ”

A big hat was buttoned down, and Mao Xiang was also frightened to stop, and then I saw a palace girl in the living room walking out, and Zhu Yunxi next to her saw her and immediately stepped forward aggrieved and said: "Sister, I ...... it"

With a "sister", Mao Xiao was also startled, and immediately guessed the identity of the girl, which made him immediately bow down and salute: "Your Royal Highness, see the princess!" ”

Zhu Yuning didn't want to come forward, but when he saw his younger brother being bullied by Mao Xiang, and seeing that Mao Xiang was about to bring someone in, he had to stand up.

I saw Zhu Yuning looking at Mao Xiang coldly, and after a while, he spoke: "Give you a chance, take people away immediately, I can treat the previous incident as if it didn't happen!" ”

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, as far as the minister knows, it seems that the princess is not allowed to leave the palace without permission in the palace?" Mao Xiang did not answer Zhu Yuning directly, but directly pointed out that the other party left the palace without permission, if Zhu Yuanzhang knew about this, the consequences would probably be very serious.

"What? Jin Yiwei's hand is stretched out so long, he dares to take care of the affairs of the palace? Zhu Yuning snorted coldly and asked rhetorically, and another big hat was buttoned down.

"The lower officials don't dare!" Mao Xiang was also shocked when he heard this, he thought that only Zhu Yunxi, a child here, was here, but he didn't expect that there was a princess, and the other party put a lot of pressure on him, and he was definitely not as easy to deal with as Zhu Yunxi, who had not grown up.

"Why don't you dare, even my brother dares to threaten him, it seems that Grandpa Huang is too indulgent of you!" Zhu Yuning pressed step by step, she just wanted to put the hat that threatened the royal family on Mao Xiang's head, and then use this to force the other party back, after all, even if she was a princess, she had no right to directly order the other party to leave.

However, Mao Xiang was not so easy to deal with, I saw him suddenly grit his teeth and straighten up and said: "Don't slander the princess, the lower officials are just acting on the orders of the emperor, arresting Li Zhu's family, and please don't stop the princess!" ”

Mao Xiang said that he was about to break into the courtyard when he took another step, because he knew that it would not be good for him to quarrel with Her Royal Highness the princess whether he won or lost, so it was better to go in directly and arrest people, and then His Majesty would have his own judgment.

I have to say that Mao Xiang is indeed very decisive, but he still underestimated Zhu Yuning, when he saw that he was about to break in again, he saw Zhu Yuning raise his eyebrows, and then reached out and grabbed the waist knife of the guard next to him, "Cang Chang" pulled out, and the tip of the knife pointed directly at Mao Xiang and said sharply: "You dare to take a step forward, believe it or not, Princess Ben cut you!" ”

"Sister!" Zhu Yunxi was also shocked when he saw this, he never dreamed that his sister would use the knife directly.

Mao Xiang was even more startled, he didn't expect the princess in front of him to be so strong, but then he calmed down, and immediately smiled calmly: "The princess is a daughter, don't use a knife or a gun, otherwise it will be bad to hurt yourself!" ”

Zhu Yuning heard the meaning of Mao Xiang's words, and saw her sneer again: "Do you think that I am a female streamer, even if I hold a knife, I dare not really kill you?" ”

Mao Xiang also looked cold when he heard this, and he confirmed that Zhu Yuning took a knife just to scare him, but he Mao Xiang was also from the military, and a mere knife couldn't scare him at all.

"Mao Xiang, don't forget, this princess is the grandson of Emperor Hongwu, and Kaiping Wang Chang 100,000 is my maternal grandfather, as a general, what is it to kill someone?" Zhu Yuning also said again murderously at this time, saying that he stepped forward with a knife in one hand.

Mao Xiang was also intimidated by Zhu Yuning's momentum, and at this time he took a step back, just like Zhu Yuning said, whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Chang Yuchun, they are all murderous people, although Zhu Yuning is a woman, but there is still the blood of Zhu Yuanzhang and Chang Yuchun on his body, and now Mao Xiang is finally convinced that if he takes another step forward, Zhu Yuning will really swing a knife and cut down.

Watching Mao Xiang retreat, Zhu Yuning sneered again and said, "This princess is going to kill you, do you dare to hide?" ”

Zhu Yuning's words seemed unreasonable, but they hit Mao Xiang's soft underbelly all of a sudden, don't look at their Jinyiwei is now famous, but to put it bluntly, they are just a dog raised by Zhu Yuanzhang, Mao Xiang's ownership and power all come from Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang says a word, he can decide his life and death.

And Zhu Yuning is the princess of the Ming Dynasty, and she is also the owner of the dog Jinyiwei, now Zhu Yuning wants to kill Mao Xiang, and he doesn't dare to fight back when he kills Mao Xiang, and he can't even dodge, because today the princess wants to kill you, and you dodge, so tomorrow the emperor wants to kill you, do you still want to dodge?

In other words, if Mao Xiang dodges, it means that there is a problem with his loyalty to Daming and Zhu Yuanzhang, and the reason why he can sit in the position of the commander of the Jinyi Guard is to rely on his absolute loyalty to Zhu Yuanzhang.

As for Zhu Yuning, even if she really killed Mao Xiang, at most she would only ask Zhu Yuanzhang for her guilt, you must know that Zhu Yuanzhang is a well-known protector, although Mao Xiang is a good dog, but Zhu Yuanzhang will not embarrass his granddaughter for him, so Zhu Yuning will be scolded at most, what should he do in the future.

Thinking of the above, the cold sweat on Mao Xiang's forehead also fell, he never thought that one day he would be threatened by a girl with a knife, and it also put him in a dilemma.

Zhu Yuning wore a long skirt, pointed a knife at Mao Xiang with one hand, and her eyes were full of murderous energy, since she dared to come, she was naturally prepared for the worst, although she had never killed anyone, but as long as Mao Xiang dared to take another step, she didn't mind letting her hands be stained with blood.

I saw that Mao Xiang's face was uncertain, and finally he took a few steps back again, and saluted Zhu Yuning slightly: "The princess has a strong personality, and the officials admire it, and say goodbye!" ”

Mao Xiang turned around and left after speaking, since Zhu Yuning is here, Li Zhu's family will definitely not be able to take it back, which also makes him secretly anxious, because arresting Li Zhu's family is a task personally assigned by Zhu Yuanzhang, and it has not been completed now, although he can put the responsibility on Zhu Yuning, but it is still his dereliction of duty.

However, compared to dereliction of duty, his own life is still important, so Mao Xiang has no other way but to go back to complain to Zhu Yuanzhang first, and then Zhu Yuanzhang will personally deal with this matter.

Thinking of the above, Mao Xiang immediately rushed to the palace as fast as he could, but when he was not far from the imperial city, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him, and then a cavalryman roared while galloping his horse: "Great victory at sea!" The Japanese have been destroyed, and the Ming Dynasty is victorious! ”

The cavalry who reported the victory rushed away from Mao Xiang, but Mao Xiang stood there motionless, and after a while, he whispered to himself: "The Japanese are really exterminated, does that mean that Li Jie is coming back?" ”
