Xinuan Pavilion,

The little eunuch stretched out his hand to stop Qin Hong, and Emperor Hongzhi and the cabinet were discussing matters in the palace.

Qin Hong pushed open the door of the hall and walked into the hall.

Emperor Hongzhi and Li Dongyang were frightened, but they saw a figure hurriedly walking into the hall.

"Your Majesty, an hour ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated in Mingfeng Mountain, and Jinyi Wei lost five people."

Emperor Hongzhi also wanted to blame Qin Hong, as a minister, he had to abide by the etiquette.

can hear the prince's royal gift, and the body feels like it is being drilled into the body by thousands of cold air, and the body is cold.

"Too ...... How about the Prince? ”

Liu Jian asked hurriedly.

Qin Hong bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the prince returned to the palace an hour ago." ”

"Why didn't he come to report to me, it's really unreasonable, summon the prince to see me!"

Xiao Jing hurriedly trotted out of the Fengtian Hall and eagerly ran towards the East Palace.

When he arrived at the East Palace, he found Zhu Houzhao sitting peacefully on the Luohan Collapse, happily playing checkers.

Your Majesty is dying, and you don't know how to report your safety.

If he had such a son, he would have to die of anger.

"Your Highness, why don't you go to your majesty to say hello when you come back, your majesty has summoned you over."

Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment, looking at Xiao Jing's panicked appearance, his father must have known.

He said to his companion on the side: "Go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to find Lao Gao and let him go to the warm pavilion." ”

Soon, Zhu Houzhao came to the warm pavilion very reluctantly.

After Emperor Hongzhi asked for peace, he stood aside obediently as if nothing had happened.

"What did my father do when he summoned his sons?"

Emperor Hongzhi had a straight face, as if nothing had happened: "You don't have anything to say to me?" ”

Zhu Houzhao lowered his head and thought for a long time, last time the palace had a big disaster and was locked in the East Palace, guarded by Mu Bin's dog-legged son.

If he is recruited, his father will definitely repeat his old tricks and beat him up.

"Erchen...... No. ”

Qin Hong sighed and shook his head.

The officers and soldiers of the sub-patrol road have transported the bandits back to the capital and handed them over to Jinyiwei for investigation.

Emperor Hongzhi had a cold face: "You were assassinated in Mingfeng Mountain, and you still want to deceive me!" What about the people you brought back? ”

Metropolitan Inspectorate, duty room.

Spring is about to begin, but there is no sign of warming, and the royal historians gather around the carbon fire to keep warm.

Zheng Qian came to inform Yan Chengjin.

Yan Chengjin listened to what happened in detail, Zhu Houzhao was assassinated in Mingfeng Mountain, and the assassin had a white lotus in his hand.

He didn't panic, and he didn't send someone to kill him, what did he do in the warm pavilion.

Besides, Zhu Houzhao is alive and well.

This guy asked him to go, just to intercede for him, so he couldn't go.

The white lotus was divided into several shares, and the people were in company, and they wanted to pay it off completely, just like the Qing Dynasty would grasp the heaven and earth, and it took a lot of effort.

And living in poverty, the people need to have faith, which is the product of the environment of the Ming Dynasty.

Destroy the white lotus, and tomorrow there will be black lotus and yellow lotus.

Xinuan Pavilion,

Mu Bin strode into the hall, his face was gloomy, and he searched the East Palace, but he didn't see anyone.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Where did you hide people!" ”

Zhu Houzhao bowed slightly and said seriously: "On the way back, he wanted to assassinate Erchen, but was killed by Erchen. ”

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian glanced at each other.

Emperor Hongzhi ordered someone to search the East Palace again, but he didn't find anyone.

He also ordered someone to ask the guards at the noon gate, and learned that when Zhu Houzhao returned to the palace, there was only one person, so he dispelled his thoughts.

But Zhu Houzhao was confined to the East Palace and was personally guarded by Mu Bin.

There was a big lock outside the door, and the master of Zhan Shifu wanted to give a lecture, so he could only come to the East Palace in person.

The rest of the people are not allowed to visit.

……

The Forbidden City, a quiet silkworm room.

Wang Ziran lifted the quilt, and the bags of his descendants were cut clean, as if they had never existed.

The assassination of the crown prince not only compensated his wife, but also his children and grandchildren.

He hid his face and wept.

The door creaked open, and Wang Shan, the eunuch of the palace, walked in: "Awake?" Drink the porridge. ”

The silkworm room in the palace is an unlucky place, and few people ask about it.

There are eunuchs to be castrated every day, and Wang Shan is not unusual, just report the list to the celebrant supervisor.

"I... I am not a eunuch. ”

Wang Shan sneered: "It's all cut, I can still help you take it back, drink the porridge, and take it to the celebrant to be on the roster in a few days." ”

To enter the palace as a eunuch, a document from the local yamen is required.

The people brought by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally do not need these procedures.

……

The more Wang Shouren wanted to feel that something was wrong, His Royal Highness said that after entering the palace, he would report it by himself.

But it was not reported, so it was speculated that it was still in the palace, but I don't know where it was hidden.

He confided in Yan Chengjin: "Old brother, the prince brought the thief of the White Lotus into the palace, and asked the old brother to check it." ”

Yan Chengjin was shocked in his heart, looking at Wang Shouren's serious expression, not like a joke.

Zhu Houzhao, you really know how to play.

However, he did not move.

Yan Chengjin came to the East Palace, but Zhu Houzhao was a smart person, even if he was not completely confessed.

After deducing on paper for a long time, and thinking about it for a long time, he came to the East Palace.

"Your Highness, where are you hiding the White Lotus Thief?"

"The palace slaughtered him, dismantled eight pieces, and fed the wild dogs on the outskirts of Beijing." Zhu Houzhao's lying is the same as drinking white water, naturally.

Castrated in the eunuch's silkworm room, in the side hall of the harem, the officials will not go.

In order to thoroughly investigate the palace, the Metropolitan Procuratorate needs to obtain the will of the emperor.

Zhu Houzhao was not worried at all.

The prince was assassinated, and it reached the ears of hundreds of officials, setting off a sound of impeachment of Zhu Houzhao.

If you stay in the palace, will this happen?

Not only Zhu Houzhao was impeached, but also Emperor Hongzhi.

"Your Majesty, there are still remnants of the White Lotus hidden in the capital, and the ministers ask for begging, and send the soldiers and horses of the five cities to clean it up."

"Shuntianfu unites the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, there are official dogs, and thieves can't escape."

The officials admonished one after another, and then cleared the white lotus.

Yan Chengjin didn't say a word, he knew a few hiding places for the white lotus.

It's just that it may not have been Bai Lian's doing.

After Yang Tinghe returned home, he kept the door closed.

When King Ning came to the capital, he inquired about when the prince would leave the palace, where he would go out of the palace, and how many brocade guards he would bring.

Do you want to enlighten Your Majesty?

In case this matter is really done by King Ning, the old man will also be implicated by your King Ning.

Yang Tinghe was worried in a hurry, and sighed several times in succession, only hoping that it was not King Ning who did it.

"Butler!"

After a while, the butler, who was a little bent, walked into the study, turned around and closed the door: "Master, what do you command?" ”

"Return all these generous gifts." Yang Tinghe said solemnly.

Before King Ning entered Beijing, he asked someone to send a generous gift to Yang's mansion.

They are five calligraphy and paintings in the Hongwu period, a pair of koi playing with pearls, and a piece of paperweight white jade.

"You don't have to shy away from anything, just say that the old man doesn't like it, and let him stop giving gifts to the old man."

The housekeeper answered, and went out with calligraphy and paintings and a brocade box.

Yang Shen walked in from outside the house: "Why did Dad draw his beloved calligraphy?" ”

"Go back to your room and study!"

Ten days have passed, and Shuntianfu and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division have not caught anyone.

The news reached the imperial court, and Emperor Hongzhi had to give up.

East Palace,

Zhu Houzhao looked serious and looked at the eunuch in front of him: "This palace will call you Wang Daban in the future." ”

Wang Ziran wanted to cry without tears, and the castrations were all castrated.

In the Ming Dynasty, the most unsightly profession is the eunuch.

With his body, he didn't have the face to go out of the palace to see his brother, "Your Highness, the younger one in the future will be your royal companion." ”

"You hide it well, don't let your father know."

……

Master of Ceremonies, Duty Room,

Xiao Jing sat on the rattan chair and rested for a while, and the little eunuch came with the roster: "Master Xiao, this is the roster of new companions." ”

Serving the royal driver for most of the day, tired,

But the eunuchs selected from outside the palace, he wants to look at them one by one,

Select clever eunuchs, go to the inner academy to study, and cultivate pillars for the imperial court.

"This Wang Ziran has not passed the assessment of the Inner Academy, you dare to send him to the crown prince?! Who did this to you! ”

The little eunuch glanced at the roster and hurriedly said, "It's Wang Shan." ”

Not long after, Wang Shan came to the duty room of the celebrant and knelt down with a puff: "Xiao Ye, it is the person brought by His Royal Highness the Prince, and after the slave and maid are castrated, they will send him over." ”

Oh no, the prince really dared to bring the remnants of the White Lotus into the palace.

Xiao Jing threw down the booklet and hurriedly went to Fengtian Temple.
