Volume 2 Chapter 158 Loyalty

Miao Jin sat in front of the dresser, dressed herself, and looked at a white silk hair on the table.

She thought about the situation in Zhongshan yesterday, and her cheeks and ears were hot again. At that time, I didn't feel any pain in the clouds, but after that, my body was still hurting hotly. I never thought I would commit to others like this before, and I always thought that chastity was more important than life. It's a bit of a rush, but what's the point of staying in hell if you don't give it to him yesterday?

At this moment, she is more nostalgic for the world, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. But the rumors around her really scared her, why every day more than 20 men guarded, what stripped naked and paraded the streets. It's really better to die than to be humiliated like this!

Miaojin pondered for a moment, the Jing family must be worse than Fang Xiaoru's family. Fang Xiaoru just scolded Yan Wei, but Jing Qing's approach must not be spared...... If you want to assassinate the emperor, you can still be treated leniently, then won't more people do that in the future? The emperor will definitely intimidate the world and set an example!

She didn't want to die and leave the impression of being insulted to King Gaoyang and the world, so her heart simply turned to ashes, who could do anything to her?

Thinking of this, Miao Jin got up and went to prepare firewood and oil.

…… The streets were full of people, and there were many officials and their retinues who were on their way to the court. Jing Qing took the remaining bun on horseback and took a bite, and several of his entourages also bought buns and were spitting beside him.

At this moment, a child looked at the front of the bun shop for a while, looking pitiful, and then walked towards Jingqing.

When the child was a few steps away from Jing Qing, he suddenly pulled out a short sword from his arms and ran towards Jing Qing! Jing Qing stared at the child, and didn't react for a while, the child had already rushed to the side of the horse, and stabbed Jing Qing three times in the waist with a short sword!

"Ahh Yes! Yes! Jing Qing screamed three times, and immediately pressed his waist, blood had flowed out of the official robe and between his fingers, and the person also fell from the horse. When the servants threw their buns and ran over here, the child actually stabbed Jing Qing in the chest and abdomen a few times.

Several people hurriedly held the child down and shouted, "There are assassins! Come on, there are assassins......"

"Hypocrisy, hypocrisy, traitors and traitors, everyone will be punished!" The boy said with blood-red eyes. His voice was strong, and it was then that people realized that the killer was not a child at all, but an adult dwarf!

After the dwarf was overturned, he shouted desperately: "Murderer, the righteous son of the loyal minister Fang Gong, Fang Zhongyi!" ”

Jing Qing stared, his hands were full of blood, and pointed at the dwarf, "You...... I ......" but finally did not say a word, his face and lips were pale, and his head was tilted to the ground.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" The servant shouted Jingqing in a panic, his vital point was stabbed several times, where is there still a little movement?

The news soon spread to Jing's mansion, and the house suddenly cried, Mrs. Jing cried and grabbed the ground, Miaojin hurriedly took the house slave to bring the corpse back to the mansion, and when the corpse cried sadly, he did not forget to quietly take away the short dagger in Jingqing's arms.

…… At this time, Zhu Di was in the early dynasty, and when he saw the eunuch Zheng He bending down and walking under the throne, with an anxious look, Zhu Di beckoned. Zheng He stepped forward and said: "Yushi Jingqing, was stabbed to death by Fang Xiaoru's adopted son on the road to Shangchao!" ”

Zhu Di's expression changed slightly, and he nodded silently.

It was not until the end of the early dynasty that Zhu Di summoned Zheng He to inquire carefully. Zheng He said: "Emperor, that Fang Zhongyi is a dwarf, he was originally a fellow villager of Fang Xiaoru, but due to natural disasters and plagues in the township, both parents died. Fang Xiaoru adopted him as an adopted son, raised him in the house for many years, and personally taught him the morality of scriptures, and named him Zhongyi......"

Zhu Di was very annoyed when he heard this, and his face was murderous.

Zheng He carefully reminded: "Fang Xiaoru has been detained, and this matter should not be his order. Just because before the destruction of the Jingshi City, Jingqing, Fang Xiaoru, and Lian Ying agreed to martyr themselves to show their loyalty; And Lian Ying is dead, Fang Xiaoru also refuses to surrender, only Jingqing begs for survival. The dwarf must have killed Jing Qing for this matter. ”

Zhu Di said coldly: "I originally thought that Fang Xiaoru only wrote articles, and I didn't want him to raise dead soldiers!" The loyal ministers who killed me today, do they want to harm me tomorrow? ”

Zheng He was startled, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "This thief deserves death!" ”

Zhu Di said: "My minister, kill if you want?" Immediately pass on the Chronicle Gang to the audience. ”

Zheng He hurriedly said: "The slave and maid receive the order." ”

Zhu Di suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "There is a division for the decree, bury Jingqing, correct his name, and I want to give him the nickname 'Loyal Martyr'." ”

……

Zhu Gaoxu was a vassal king, and the palace that was arranged was far away from the imperial city, so he did not go to the court. It was almost noon when he heard the news that Jing Qing had been stabbed to death by Fang Xiaoru's adopted son.

He was surprised at first, but after thinking about it slightly, he was immediately overjoyed!

This is true: there is nowhere to find it when you step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it! Out of nowhere, a Fang Zhongyi appeared, Zhu Gaoxu never knew that there was such a powerful character, three times five divided by two, and suddenly solved the troubles that he couldn't think about at once!

Jingqing was not killed by Zhu Gaoxu, and he didn't even have anything to do with it, so he was not Miaojin's father-killing enemy. As soon as Jingqing died, Zhu Gaoxu was busy rescuing Miaojin, so he didn't have to do anything, because the key person in the matter no longer existed.

Zhu Gaoxu felt a burst of relief, as if he had suddenly removed fifty catties of armor.

He immediately wanted to raise his head and laugh, but when he glanced at the slave outside the room, he held back again, and had to suppress the joy in his heart, raised his head and took a deep breath. On the one hand, I was very happy, but on the other hand, I couldn't show it, like I couldn't sneeze out, and I was a little uncomfortable; It seems that the woman who has had a skin-to-skin relationship with him opens her mouth and wants to express it loudly, but she has to hold back her face with a flushed face, and her face seems to be very painful, which makes people panic when she looks at it.

Zhu Gaoxu walked out of the inverted room with an expressionless face, sent Hou Hai away, and walked towards the gatehouse.

When he arrived at the inner mansion, he met Yao Ji, Yao Ji glanced at him, and then asked with a smile, "Why is the prince so happy?" ”

"Did I laugh?" Zhu Gaoxu was stunned.

Yao Ji shook her head and said, "Who said that only laughter is joyful?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu was faintly wary of Yao Ji, because he didn't know her details, and there were some things very strange, so he said casually: "My father ascended the throne and became the emperor, I am the prince, I have everything in glory and wealth, and I am in a good mood all day long." ”

"The prince just wants to be a prince?" Yao Ji asked with a smirk.

Zhu Gaoxu was stunned for a moment, and said quietly: "Born as the son of the emperor, he was born with more or less opportunities, if it is said that any prince has never thought about the crown prince, it must be a lie." Therefore, it doesn't matter if you want to or not, and you don't have to worry about being known by others, the key is whether you have that strength and status. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said in his heart: Even the third brother Gao Sui, if he wants to be famous or not, he wants to have merit or not, and the third brother wants to try it, what's so strange?

"What the prince said makes sense." Yao Ji chuckled, she spoke very tactfully, subduedly, and charmingly, but her voice was crisp and a little innocent and childish. Zhu Gaoxu heard it in his ears, it was really an indescribable taste, and he immediately looked Yao Ji up and down, her hair had grown a lot, and her delicate short hair had a unique style, less feminine and more pretty.

At this moment, Du Qianrui's voice said, "Lord Wang, I have bought seafood...... Sister Yao Ji is also there? ”

Yao Ji didn't mean to despise Du Qianrui at all, and immediately said cordially: "The prince just came in, and I met here. I heard that my sister has good cooking skills, and the prince is blessed. ”

"When it's time to eat, you all come and try Miss Du's craftsmanship together." Zhu Gaoxu said.

So he left the two women to speak, and went first.

When Zhu Gaoxu came to the study, he began to think that the shop he had just bought with money was still useful...... But don't be in a hurry now, you can take the time to renovate it so you can meet someone special there......

For example, Wang Zhenliang, the son of the concubine Wang Ning, rescued Zhu Gaoxu's brothers a few years ago, and made great efforts to say that he would "reunite with Xu Lao", but Zhu Gaoxu never went to see him.

Wang Zhenliang's father is really a wonderful person, carrying his head to be a spy and providing intelligence for the Jingnan army, and when Jingnan succeeded, Wang Yuma came out of the edict prison, but he didn't take credit...... And suddenly woke up, believed in the Buddha, and persuaded the emperor to also believe in the Buddha, which made the emperor unhappy on the spot, but the emperor recited the gong and still promised to crown Wang Ning as the marquis.

No matter what the horse Wang Ning is, Zhu Gaoxu and Wang Zhenliang are of the same age, and their relationship has always been very good. He didn't want to blatantly "woo" the nobles, so it was better to meet and keep a low profile.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is not easy to think of a few eyes and ears. Otherwise, everything about spying on the news has been done by the vassal king, what else do you want Jinyi to do?

Especially at this juncture, the position of the crown prince is undecided. Zhu Gaoxu didn't want to embarrass his father too much...... Zhu Gaoxu has thought about this a thousand times a long time, and the conclusion has never changed: the eldest brother will be the prince!

So Zhu Gaoxu found a pen and paper and began to redesign the pavement. The house is a two-storey building with a small courtyard at the back. Zhu Gaoxu drew sketches on paper, preparing to build the original pavement into a corridor so that the carriage could enter the courtyard directly. Then the lobby of the shop where the business is done is opened on the second floor, and a staircase is built outside to go directly from the street to the lobby on the second floor to receive ordinary customers.

Of course, this will affect business, but Zhu Gaoxu does not want to do business.

In his previous life, he was a person with a lot of dreams, yearning for some interesting lifestyles, but he didn't have the money to achieve them. When he arrived in the Ming Dynasty, he felt that it was good to be a prince...... If someone hadn't fundamentally threatened him, he really wouldn't be willing to give up his life to fight for the throne.

With the idea in place, Zhu Gaoxu took the drawings, then found Chen Dazhui, and described it in private, asking Chen Dazhui to take the money to find someone to do it.
