"Your Highness,"

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly ran in from outside and said to Zhu Xu: "Zhou Yingqiu went to visit Ni Wenhuan and other old friends today. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Zhu Xu was stunned and said, "Did he openly emerge?" ”

Cao Wenzhao had a trace of anger on his face, and said, "It's Your Highness, he used the excuse that his wife went to Beijing to see a doctor, and he entered Beijing a few days ago, and the ministry has a record." ”

This time, Zhu Xu was really impressed by this dog's head, and in this way, this unsightly person Lord Zhou not only threw off all the handles, but now he is active in the capital openly.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Zhu Xu's smiling face, and said curiously, "Your Highness, Ying Qiu is not a good person this week, he buys and sells officials, kills people and sets fires, and does everything, how can we deal with him?" ”

Zhu Xu changed his posture and said with a smile: "Since this old thing is related to Wei Zhongxian, it is so easy for him to get rid of it." Come over with your ears. ”

As soon as Cao Wenzhao saw it, he knew that their Royal Highness had a ghost idea again, and immediately sent his ear to his mouth.

Zhu Xu whispered a few words in his ear, his eyes suddenly opened, and said, "It's Your Highness, I'll arrange it." ”

Zhu Xu stretched his waist, sleepiness welled up, so he said to Yao Qingqing who was not far away: "Sister Qingqing, wake me up in an hour, I'll go to sleep for a while." With that, he walked to the bedroom.

"Yes, Your Highness." Yao Qingqing agreed.

West of the city, Zhou's house.

Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhou Yingqiu, who came back from a 'friend visit', and said with a happy face: "Master, your letters are very useful, and we are not afraid of anyone's threats now." ”

Zhou Yingqiu smiled faintly, with a calm and confident face, and said: "In the future, when I open the door, I will not refuse to come, I have asked Ni Yushi to write on my behalf, and I can go to see the emperor in a few days." ”

Mrs. Zhou was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Then master, are you going to restart?" ”

Zhou Yingqiu seemed to be full of pride, straightened his chest, and said, "Don't be in a hurry first, first rescue Eunuch Wei back, and dig out the people behind him." ”

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly agreed, "Yes, yes, don't worry, there are many vacancies in the court now, and your reenlightenment must be a scholar!" ”

Zhou Yingqiu shook his head secretly and sneered slightly, Shangshu is just a springboard for him, Ye Xianggao's position, he Zhou Yingqiu can also sit!

"Sir, I received a letter."

As the two were talking, the porter walked over and said.

Mrs. Zhou's face changed suddenly, and she said coldly, "Letter, what letter?" Who sent it? ”

Zhou Yingqiu's expression was majestic, he ignored Mrs. Zhou, took it and opened it, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

When Mrs. Zhou saw Zhou Yingqiu's expression, she immediately exclaimed, "Master, what's wrong?" ”

"The kidnappers are here to ask for a ransom."

Zhou Yingqiu's face was like swallowing a fly that had just eaten, constantly changing, and finally embarrassed and terrible.

"Ransom, what ransom?" Mrs. Zhou looked puzzled, took the letter and looked at it, and suddenly shouted: "Eunuch Wei has been robbed, why did he ask us to ransom ......"

Zhou Yingqiu's expression changed, and he suddenly shouted, "Shut up!" ”

Mrs. Zhou's heart trembled, trembling all over, and then looked at Zhou Yingqiu with some pity.

Zhou Yingqiu stared at Mrs. Zhou with fierce eyes, but his heart kept flashing with thoughts.

He knew that the other party would not just send a letter, most of the rumors were already flying outside.

The Ming Dynasty was the most taboo eunuch to interfere in politics from the founding of the country, and after Yingzong, he was the most taboo about the collusion of internal ministers and foreign ministers, especially now, whoever provokes Wei Zhongxian will not have a good result!

Zhou Yingqiu thought about it for a long time, but couldn't find a way, and said to the doorman, "Go outside and inquire, what are the rumors?" ”

"Yes, sir." The porter agreed, and quickly turned around and went out.

When Mrs. Zhou saw the porter leaving, she asked in a low voice, "Master, does it really matter?" ”

"The study said." Zhou Yingqiu's face was gloomy, and he walked quickly to the study, and Mrs. Zhou followed in fear.

Mrs. Zhou followed up with the study and immediately asked, "Master, is this letter really so important?" ”

Zhou Yingqiu sat on the chair, his expression was still cold and terrifying.

The matter is not as simple as a letter, Wei Zhongxian was abducted at his door, and Wei Zhongxian is guilty again, so it is not too much to really break it up, and it is not too much to give him a plot. The most important thing is that the emperor probably can't protect him, and the first assistant will become a dream!

Zhou Yingqiu pondered for a long time, and finally couldn't help sighing, looked up at Mrs. Zhou and said, "This time, he set up a mortal game." ”

"Death?"

Mrs. Zhou's face turned pale, she took Zhou Yingqiu's arm, and said urgently, "That master, let's admit to him, beg him to let you go, we won't stay in the capital anymore, let's go back to our hometown......"

Zhou Yingqiu listened to Mrs. Zhou's words, and smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, he didn't even know who the other party was, even if he was soft, he didn't know who to look for?

"Sir." The porter knocks on the door outside.

"Come in." Zhou Yingqiu's body was stiff, and he was full of energy.

The porter pushed the door in, bowed down and said, "Master, it is rumored outside that Eunuch Wei was kidnapped in our mansion, and besides, Eunuch Wei came to meet you secretly by the emperor's will." ”

Zhou Yingqiu said indifferently: "I know, you can go." ”

"Yes, sir." He bowed outside the door, exited, and closed the door.

Rumors are only half-true and half-true, and I am afraid that most of the people in the Forbidden City have believed it.

Zhou Yingqiu watched the porter go out, was silent for a long time, and said to Mrs. Zhou: "From today onwards, close the door and thank you." ”

Mrs. Zhou nodded hurriedly and said, "It's the master." ”

The door that the Zhou Mansion had just opened was closed again with the goods.

"Have you heard? Wei Zhongxian sneaked back to the capital. ”

"It's the emperor's order, I heard that the emperor wants to restart Wei Eunuch......"

"I heard that they are plotting to deal with the Donglin Party......"

Tea houses and wine shops all over the country, Qinglou tile stacks are all such discussions, and it didn't take long for them to spread throughout the capital.

East of the city, Zhoufu.

"What did you say?"

Zhou Jianzong smashed the teacup in his hand, stood up abruptly and shouted.

The two subordinates on the opposite side were frightened, and said in a panic, "Old man, it's all rumored outside, I heard that the Zhou Mansion has closed its doors, and no one has seen it." ”

Zhou Jianzong's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I know that if the eunuch is not eliminated for a day, there will be endless troubles!" ”

Zhou Jianzong stood there, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, and suddenly he said hatefully, "Okay, I will contact my colleagues again, this time, it is bound to cut Wei Eunuch and his party to the roots!" ”

In Jinghuan Palace, Yao Qingqing looked at the hourglass, and when the last drip was finished, she pushed open Zhu Xu's door, looked at Zhu Xu who was sleeping indecently, chuckled, and hurriedly whispered, "Your Highness, Your Highness, it's time." ”

Zhu Xu straightened his waist and sat up, still sleepy-eyed, and said weakly: "Prepare hot water, I want to take a bath, let Xiao Cao inquire where the imperial brother is, I want to see him." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Yao Qingqing is the most empathetic and obedient.

Zhu Xu got up very heavily, and it took him a long time to get up in bed, and he soaked in the bathtub for a long time before he woke up.

Zhu Xu dressed up, and Cao Huachun immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the emperor is in the imperial study, listening to the voice, the emperor is in a very good mood today." ”

Zhu Xu was stunned, such a big thing, can the imperial brother still be happy?

Zhu Xu tidied up his clothes and went straight to the imperial study.

The guards in the imperial study are still those people, but it seems to have changed people, and the ease and freehand of the past are completely gone.

The eunuchs and guards all looked at their noses and noses, and turned a blind eye to Zhu Xu's coming.

"Brother to the royal brother to say goodbye."

Zhu Xu walked into the imperial study and bowed with his fists in a similar manner.

When Zhu Youxiao saw it, he smiled and said, "You came just in time, give me a shot." ”

"Okay."

Zhu Xu stepped forward with his arms rolled up his sleeves and came to the table, only to see a very peculiar sculpture on the royal table.

The two tigers, with a seal on their heads, are extremely fierce, with teeth and claws, and they are very weird.

Zhu Xu looked at Zhu Youxiao's side face without a trace of displeasure. It's like Wei Zhongxian was kidnapped, Zhou Yingqiu's rumors, he didn't know anything about it?

Zhu Xu pondered in his heart, and said, "Brother Huang, what are you carving this, I haven't seen you carve animals before?" ”

Without waiting for Zhu Youxiao to speak, Liu Shimin came in, held the holy decree, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the decree is ready." ”

Zhu Youxiao had all the carving knives in his hands, and he said without raising his head: "Nian" After speaking, he said to Zhu Xu, "Brother Huang, you have helped it, I will go to the knife." ”

Liu Shimin glanced at Zhu Xu and said, "Obey." ”

'Holy Decree? Zhu Xu looked at Liu Shimin and waited curiously.

Liu Shimin raised his head, opened the holy decree, and read in a sharp voice: "Gu Bingqian, loyal to the monarch and the country...... Proposed to be promoted to the Scholar of Yingwudian University, plus the title of Prince Taibao......"

Zhu Xu grinned when he listened, this Gu Bingqian, who had just been promoted to the secretary of the ministry, was now in the cabinet.

After Liu Shimin finished reading, he said: "Your Majesty, do you want to send it to the cabinet now?" ”

This is the emperor's intention, but it can't help but communicate with the cabinet, and the cabinet needs to understand the emperor's meaning, and then send a letter, the emperor will approve it, and then the emperor will send it to the cabinet and promulgate it to the world.

"Wait."

Zhu Youxiao's hand was stunned, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu was stunned, and said inexplicably: "Brother Huang? ”

"It's okay," Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly, and said, "You go to the queen later, and tell him that Gu Bingqian's granddaughter is a good match with Zhao Nanxing's grandson, and let her give her a marriage." ”

Zhu Xu looked at Zhu Youxiao with a smile on his face, and 10,000 grass camels flew over in his heart, did this imperial brother suddenly comprehend the emperor's mental technique, or did he keep pretending to be confused and waiting for the opportunity?

Zhu Xu looked up at the white little face, and said very seriously, "Okay, I promise to bring the original words." ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Xu's face, was in a good mood, and said, "Okay, when I finish carving, I'll give you this." ”

Zhu Xu looked at the two tigers, and finally understood what Zhu Youxiao meant, the two tigers competed, the fisherman profited, and the seal was himself.

After most of the hour, Zhu Xu walked out of the imperial study with the lifelike carving, still sighing in his heart.

This imperial brother sometimes he really can't understand, he is extremely smart when he is smart, and he is extremely willful when he is willful.

Moreover, this matter may not all come from Zhou Yingqiu's planning, most of the time he has already planned and has been waiting for an opportunity.

Zhu Xu thought as he walked, he had done a lot of things in the past two years, some of them were blatant, some were secretly, I don't know how much this imperial brother has noticed.

"It seems that we will have to be more careful in the future."

In the end, Zhu Xu nodded and said affirmatively.

"Your Highness, Your Highness."

As soon as Zhu Xu returned to Jinghuan Palace, Cao Huachun came over and said, "Miss Wu from the queen's side has a message, let you go over immediately." ”

Miss Wu, Wu Qing and Wu Rou?

Zhu Xu's face changed slightly, and he threw the carving to Cao Huachun and said, "Bring it back to this king." After speaking, he went straight to Kunning Palace.

Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Xu's back, and he didn't know why, he always felt very dangerous.

Before he arrived at Kunning Palace, he saw Wu Qing waiting for him from afar.

Wu Qing looked around at no one, hurriedly walked in front of Zhu Xu, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, just now we checked Niangniang's soup and found a big red flower. ”

"Big Red Flower!"

Zhu Xu's eyes were instantly full of murderous aura, this is a fetal pill!

The old witch has really returned to the palace!

"What about people?"

Zhu Xuxiao's face was full of killing intent, he could be said to be brought up by Queen Zhang, and no one would allow anyone to harm her!

Wu Qing looked around again and said, "I pressed it into an abandoned courtyard not far from Qingfang Palace, it was originally an old palace maid who lived, she died not long ago, and no one has gone to clean it up." ”

Zhu Xu nodded, forcibly suppressed the murderous aura in his heart, and said coldly: "Take care of this king, this king will go to see her at night." By the way, the imperial sister-in-law is keeping a close eye on it, and the old witch must know when she catches it, so you all be careful. ”

Wu Qing's heart also pounded, and he pursed his lips and said, "It's Your Highness." She didn't dare to leave for too long, so she quickly turned around and ran back.
