Chapter 188: The Princess Dies

After Xie Zhi's order, the magistrate of the big camp was by no means a straw bag, and waved his hand to greet the officials in his county.

After all, this is a big camp, and there are many more servants than in the clouds.

In an instant, the superiority was immediately apparent.

However, since Xie Zhi dared to come, he naturally would not give up easily, and raised his hand and said: "Above, if you dare to come to stop it, you will be killed, if the court investigates, the county will bear it." ”

Xie Zhi has enough aura, and the people below will naturally have confidence.

The magistrate of the big camp didn't expect Xie Zhi to really dare to go head-to-head, although his side had enough manpower, he had no confidence.

Fighting with the officials in the clouds, they didn't have any upper hand, and after a moment of effort, they were all engaged in throwing away their armor and abandoning their armor.

Naturally, what Xie Zhi wanted to take was only Zeng Yi, and it had nothing to do with other errands, just subdued them, and did not hurt any of their lives.

"Take the righteousness of the past."

Hulala, there was a surge of people, and Zeng Yi was quickly put on several big knives around his neck.

At this time, the magistrate of the big camp finally softened, pulled Xie Zhi aside, and said with a flattering face: "Yunzhong has not suffered much loss, can this matter be settled like this?" How much is lost in the cloud, the county will compensate! ”

That's it? It's a beautiful thought.

Xie Zhi snorted coldly and said: "No way, don't think that this county doesn't know the reason why Zeng Yi did this, if he just ruined the reputation of this county, it would be fine, what he damaged this time was the benefit of the imperial court, this county does not say that the food of the king, it is the ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty, when they see such a thing, they are responsible for the imperial court to correct the discipline." ”

Daying Zhixian begged for a facelessness, his face changed slightly, his voice was cold, and he said, "Do you know who Master Zeng is?" ”

Xie Zhi was amused, you and I all know this question, can we say it?

Isn't this a recruitment of black?

Xie Zhi pulled up a smile, smiled and asked, "Who's?" ”

The magistrate of the big camp straightened his waist and said, "Qingyun Hou." ”

Xie Zhi's mouth was open, and before the pride of the county had passed, Xie Zhi changed his words and said, "Your Excellency is also a person from Qingyunhou, right?" What about Qingyunhou? Qingyun Hou He received the emperor's grace, so he has everything today, if he knows that if you still stand by your side, it will be a failure of the emperor's grace, you are also a scholar, as a scholar, but cling to the powerful, forming a party for personal gain, and the books are read to the dog's stomach? ”

"You..."The magistrate had just accused, and Xie Zhi arched his hand and said: "Farewell, this matter will not be easily stopped." ”

After returning to the clouds with Zeng Yi, Xie Zhi threw him into prison.

Xie Zhi wanted to borrow Zeng Yi this time, and he would knock Zhou Shou on the mountain.

If it weren't for this plan, Xie Zhi would have solved Zeng Yi right now.

After all, in the midst of today's great drought, blood is also needed to sacrifice the flag.

After taking Zeng Yi and Xie Qian's resolute and resolute leadership in disaster relief, the chain reaction caused by the drought is slowly subsiding.

The chain reaction from the common people subsided.

When these commoners learned that the imperial court had dug a ditch to irrigate them first, they worked even harder.

And the scholars who owned most of the fertile land were dissatisfied.

Finding Xie to open the back door is only secondary, and the impeachment of the Xie family's father and son has been gradually rising in the past few days.

Emperor Hongzhi, who has always acted mildly and is like a good man, seems to be quite tough this time, and he has suppressed all the impeachment excerpts.

And just as these gentry were making a fuss, another big thing happened.

Xie Qian is in charge of irrigation, and Xie Zhi only deals with some trivial matters in the county every day, which is also brisk.

Early one morning, just after getting up, Xiao Jing hurried to the county office.

In the past, although Xiao Jing was in a hurry, he was not as embarrassed as he is now.

As soon as Xiao Jing entered the county office, he ran to find Xie Zhi, grabbed Xie Zhi and said: "Your Majesty announced that you have entered the palace, immediately, go quickly..."

Xiao Jing was so anxious that Xie Zhi couldn't figure out the situation, so he could only ask, "What's going on?" A certain drought fight has not yet been dealt with! ”

Xiao Jing pulled Xie Zhi and replied again and again: "Her Royal Highness the princess was stabbed and in danger, I want to see you, Your Majesty urgently summons you back." ”

Hearing this, Xie Zhi was more anxious than Xiao Jing, and strode the meteor and led the horse to take the lead in the direction of Jingshi.

There was no stop all the way, and I rushed to Jingshi as fast as I could.

Zhu Xiurong defended him a lot, and Xie Zhi also regarded Zhu Xiurong as a sister.

traveled all the way, and did not stop after entering the Jingshi, and under the leadership of Xiao Jing, he rode directly to the front of Kunning Palace.

As soon as he arrived at Kunning Palace, Xie Zhi turned over and dismounted and galloped in.

There was a room of people kneeling in the dormitory, Emperor Hongzhi, Empress Zhang and Zhu Houzhao guarding Zhu Xiurong on the bed.

Xie Zhi didn't care about saluting, so he went straight to Zhu Xiurong on the bed.

Seeing Xie Zhi, Zhu Xiurong raised his eyes, pulled up a smile, and said, "Xie Zhi, are you back?" ”

At this moment, Zhu Xiurong's lips were already black, and his face was a little bruised.

Xie Zhi nodded and replied: "Yes, Your Highness is good at birth, and you will definitely be able to find a good doctor to heal Your Highness." ”

Zhu Xiurong is a child, thank you for such relieved words, but she was angry again, and raised her head and said, "Really? ”

Without waiting for Xie Zhi to speak, Zhu Houzhao rushed to the side and said, "Really, really..."

Zhu Xiurong reluctantly pulled a bright smile on his face, and said: "When Xiurong is well, Xiurong will go to the palace to have fun, thank you, you have to take Xiurong there, every time my brother takes Xiurong out, he only cares about himself and never cares about Xiurong." ”

Zhu Houzhao opened his mouth and was about to defend himself, when Zhu Xiurong spit out a mouthful of blood.

Zhu Houzhao leaned in and shouted, "Xiurong, next time my brother takes you out, I will definitely take care of you." ”

It's a pity that Zhu Xiurong kept vomiting blood one after another, and he was powerless to respond.

No matter how many people shouted, they couldn't alleviate Zhu Xiurong's pain.

But it was only a half-hour effort, and Zhu Xiurong tilted his head and was silent.

Empress Zhang sobbed and shouted a few times, and Emperor Hongzhi knew the result, but he didn't give up and called the imperial doctor.

As a result, although the imperial doctor was the most reluctant to speak, Grandpa had to kneel down and give an answer, saying, "Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother...," Zhu Houzhao shouted.

Emperor Hongzhi was quite calm, and ordered: "Send the queen back to rest, wait for a good life to take care of the queen, announce the princess's death, and the Ministry of Rites will preside over the funeral." ”

After that, Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "Thank you, prince, you two come with me." ”

Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao followed Emperor Hongzhi to the main hall of Kunning Palace, and they didn't sit down, and said sharply: "Xiurong died on behalf of me." ”

Zhu Xiurong is just a princess, and there is no need to take such a big risk.

Zhu Houzhao followed Emperor Hongzhi's words, then gritted his silver teeth and said: "Father, no matter who did it, you must find it, and your sister's revenge will be avenged." ”

Emperor Hongzhi didn't say much, and ordered directly: "Xie Zhi, the drought in the clouds has been dealt with by Xie Qing, you stay in the capital to arrest the murderer with all your might, and the factory guards and all the yamen of the ministry cooperate, no matter who it is, I will never spare it lightly this time, and you will help the prince." ”

Zhu Houzhao is fierce and will definitely kill the murderer.

Xie Zhi also looked indignant, and replied: "Obey the order, the minister must find out the murderer as soon as possible and avenge Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

After receiving the will of Emperor Hongzhi, Xie Zhi immediately figured out what happened yesterday.

In the past few days, Emperor Hongzhi has been in a bad mood for the impeachment of the excerpt, so he stayed in the warm pavilion for a while.

Zhu Xiurong, who was eating together, couldn't wait, so he drank a bowl of soup.

After only half a bowl, I felt pain in my abdomen.

I thought it was just a bad stomach, so I called the imperial doctor and ate some herbs.

Unexpectedly, before the imperial doctor called, the pain in Zhu Xiurong's abdomen became more and more serious.

When the imperial doctor arrived at the pulse, he knew that he had been poisoned.

Even if all the eunuchs and palace maids who have access to the meal, as well as the imperial cook, are detained.

Even the eunuchs in charge of procurement were also detained.

After Xie Zhi received the order, he found the eunuch who was in charge of delivering food to Kunning Palace the night before.

There were five eunuchs who delivered the meal that day.

The five men were taken into custody after the accident.

Now that I heard the news of the princess's death, I have long been bold.

The room with a few people was filled with a pungent smell.

As soon as he saw Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao entering, he immediately knelt down and pulled Zhu Houzhao's trouser leg and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness... The villain is wronged..."

Zhu Houzhao was in an extremely bad mood now, kicked the man away, and scolded angrily: "If you are wronged or not, this palace has its own conclusion, and you don't need to say it." ”

Zhu Houzhao lost his temper, and several people trembled, not daring to approach, nor daring to plead again.
