When Wei Xiaobao heard this, he hurriedly saluted: "The slave obeys!" Minions do it now! Please rest assured, Your Highness, the servants will definitely find out this person for Your Highness. ”

Zhu Hao nodded when he heard this, then waved his hand at Wei Xiaobao and asked Wei Xiaobao to go down to do errands, only Zhu Hao was left in the room, Zhu Hao secretly thought in his heart: "This old demon woman, it seems that she is really not a peaceful master!" I don't know what kind of fame she will do again, I know that she is imprisoned, and some people dare to visit, and I have a quarrel with this old demon woman, it seems that this mysterious person has a lot of energy and courage, it is really stormy! ”

Just when Zhu Hao was thinking like this in his heart, Xie Gang, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, rushed in, and Xie Gang's arrival finally made Zhu Hao understand what it was to rise again and again.

After Xie Gang saw Zhu Hao, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, help!" Your Highness! You must save the last general! Otherwise, this time the last general will die! ”

Zhu Hao listened to Xie Gang's words, and said with some doubts: "You get up first, you let this prince help you, you have to tell this prince what happened, right?" Besides, as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, the security of the entire palace depends on you, how can you take on a more important position in the future when you encounter such a panic? ”

After Zhu Hao's reprimand, Xie Gang's face was embarrassed, a little nervous, and a little ashamed, but the panic just now disappeared, Xie Gang took a deep breath, and then said: "Your Highness is like this, I don't know why there is an extra body of a palace maid in this Praetorian Guard, and she died in the camp of the last general, and the last general is now speechless!" After His Majesty heard about it today, he imprisoned the last general in the camp and waited for the fall, and the entire Praetorian Guard has been taken over by Guo Zixuan, the Marquis of Pingnan, who is the old subordinate of the last general, and the last general took advantage of the fact that the Marquis of Pingnan was not in the camp, and said that the soldiers who guarded the last general, and they risked their lives to let the last general come out and ask His Highness for help! Your Highness knows that you have always been benevolent and righteous, and you must save the last general! ”

Zhu Hao secretly said in his heart: "This old demon woman really did it, and she actually started with the Praetorian Guards first, is this to control the palace?" It's a bit tricky! It's a pity that my dad is probably still in the dark! ”

Although Zhu Hao had already determined that this matter was instigated by Empress Guo behind the scenes, in order to seize the power of the Praetorian Guard, Zhu Hao still stared at Xie Gang with some unease for a long time, Xie Gang was stared at by Zhu Hao's eyes, and he lowered his head in fear, not daring to look directly at Zhu Hao, Zhu Hao saw this, and thought that Xie Gang had done something wrong, and he was afraid, so he snorted coldly and shouted angrily: "Bold Xie Gang!" You are greedy for wine, troubled the harem, not only did you make such an angry and resentful animal behavior, but also in order to kill the mouth, you did not hesitate to kill this palace maid, and now you even ran to the front of this prince, intending to get through the trick and let this prince open up and intercede for you! You're so daring! Xie Gang, you still don't behave like a beast and confess truthfully to this prince! This prince can read that you have been guarding the palace for many years and have made a lot of merit, and ask your father to be lenient on you! ”

After Zhu Hao's words were finished, Xie Gang was so frightened that he kowtowed on the ground again and again, and shouted in his mouth: "The last general is wronged!" The last general has never done it! Your Highness is discerning! The last general was really wronged! Your Highness! ”

Zhu Hao looked at Xie Gang's condition and didn't look like a fake, and basically determined in his heart that this matter should not be Xie Gang's doing, and at the same time pondered carefully, if this matter was really Xie Gang's so-called, how could this Xie Gang, who had been the commander of the Praetorian Guard for so many years, make such a low-level mistake and let the body of that palace maid appear in his camp? I'm afraid I have already disposed of it quietly in the dead of night.

Zhu Hao basically determined that this matter was that someone had planted the blame on Xie Gang, and then his face was much better, and then he said to Xie Gang in a gentle tone: "You should get up first!" Just now, this prince was joking! Judging from your performance just now, this prince already knows that you were framed, you don't have to worry, this prince will go to his father, as long as you are wronged, this prince will definitely return your innocence! But if this prince finds out that you have really done such a beastly thing, this prince will be the first to play to his father, and he will not be spared! Go back first! Now in this situation, it is inappropriate for you to appear here with this prince! ”

Xie Gang heard that Zhu Hao was willing to intercede for him and return his innocence, and suddenly looked much better, and hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, and then said goodbye and left.

After Xie Gang left, Zhu Hao originally wanted to go to the imperial study immediately and plead with his father for Xie Gang, but Zhu Hao only took two steps before stopping, standing in place for a long time and being silent, his body could not move forward again, but fell into deep contemplation.

The reason why Zhu Hao stopped was because Zhu Hao wanted to understand one thing, that is, it was so simple to plant blame, and it was impossible for the father who had always been extremely holy not to see it, if his father knew that this was a case of planting and blame, then he also imprisoned Xie Gang, and let Guo Zixuan, Marquis of Pingnan, take over the Praetorian Guard, it must be the product of the huge pressure on the father himself and had to compromise.

Zhu Hao secretly thought in his heart: "If this is really the case, then if I go to Xie Gang to intercede now, isn't that just to add to my father's blockage?" At the same time, it is also pouring salt on my father's wounds! After all, it is definitely a great shame for an emperor to not be able to control the situation of the court, but to be subject to various forces in the court! What's more, my father is the king of a country after all, and he needs to be decent, such a slap in the face, my father will definitely not admit it, and if he tries to dissuade him at that time, I am afraid that it will only make his father hateful, and it will not be good for Xie Gang! At that time, if Dad kills Xie Gang directly for the sake of face, then he will really shoot himself in the foot! ”

Thinking like this, Zhu Hao did not go to the imperial study, but went to his mother Concubine Liu's bedroom to see if he could find out any news, thinking like this, Zhu Hao took a step and went to Concubine Liu's bedroom.

Because Zhu Hao is a minor prince and has not been crowned king, Zhu Hao's bedroom is actually a side hall of Concubine Liu's bedroom, so as soon as Zhu Hao turned around from the house, he arrived at Concubine Liu's palace.

Concubine Liu saw Zhu Hao coming, and said with a little dissatisfaction on her face: "Why are you a little conscienceless, you finally remember to come and see your mother, because my mother thought that you were a little conscienceless, and you forgot that you still have a mother!" ”

Since the last time Zhu Hao came back from the edict and woke up, the first sentence asked him where his father was, but because of this, he completely offended his mother, and since then, his mother has a "little conscience" when she sees him, which makes Zhu Hao very depressed, and also deeply understands this kind of woman-style grudge, every time I think of it, I can't help but sigh, no wonder they say that they would rather offend villains than offend women.

Regarding his mother's grudge, Zhu Hao could only smile awkwardly and said, "Mother, don't you see that you came to see you?" You don't want to be angry with Youzhen, okay, you know it's wrong, and don't make your mother angry again! Zhu Hao, who was as thick-skinned as the city wall, began to use his coquettish skills again, and when he said this, his little hand kept shaking Concubine Liu's arm.

I have to say that Zhu Hao's hand, although it seems to be very shameless, but it is very useful to Concubine Liu, who was a little unkind just now, saw Zhu Hao like this, and instantly had a smile on her face, and then stretched out her hand and pointed at Zhu Hao's forehead and said: "You, it's the same as your father who will make me angry!" I really can't do anything about your father and son! By the way, have you eaten? Do you want to let the imperial dining room bring you some pastries for your mother? ”

Hearing what his mother said, Zhu Hao immediately touched his stomach pitifully, and with Concubine Liu's words just now, Concubine Liu showed a strong smile on her face when she saw this, and instructed the maid on the side: "Go to the imperial dining room, prepare a few plates of snacks for the five princes, and let them send them to my palace immediately!" ”

After the maid left, Zhu Hao continued to pull his mother's sleeve, with a coquettish expression on his face, and asked tentatively: "Mother, have you heard that another big event has happened in this palace?" ”

Concubine Liu looked at Zhu Hao lovingly and said, "What's the matter?" I haven't heard of it for my mother! What new things have you heard again, tell me about it! ”

Zhu Hao looked at his mother with a normal expression, without any abnormality, obviously his mother might really not know about this matter, but Zhu Hao did not give up, and continued to speak: "I heard that the commander of the Praetorian Guard raped and killed a palace maid, and he has been dismissed by his father and is waiting for questioning!" ”

Concubine Liu's face was a little shocked when she heard this: "There is such a thing? This Praetorian Guard commander is really bold, such a person must be severely punished, how can there be such a scum in this palace! ”

Looking at his mother's indignant expression, Zhu Hao already understood that his mother really didn't know anything, if his father said something to his mother, his mother should definitely not have this expression at the moment, seeing that his father really loves his mother, he didn't tell his mother about this kind of thing, it seems that he doesn't want his mother to worry. Zhu Hao thought about it like this, so he didn't say more, and honestly pretended to be a good child.

The reason why Zhu Hao didn't say it was because Zhu Hao thought like this in his heart: "My father didn't want my mother to worry, so he didn't say anything to his mother, as a son of man, how could he destroy his father's mind?" Besides, in this kind of situation, my mother is completely unaware of it, and the conjecture in my heart can only make my mother more worried, but it will not solve the problem at all. ”
