Zhao Yan has never seen Zhu Qiyu, but judging from what he has seen and heard in his two lives, Zhu Qiyu is actually an emperor who has made a difference, he knows people well, works hard, and governs the Ming Dynasty in an orderly manner, and the only stain is the treatment of his half-brother Zhu Qizhen.

Knowing that Yang Shan really welcomed Zhu Qizhen back, Zhu Qiyu's heart was broken, he had the ability but lacked the overall situation, he had no experience in the country's foreign affairs, and he didn't understand people to explain it to him, so he couldn't imagine how the unknown Yang Shan persuaded Zhu Qizhen to come back first, but this did not prevent the sensitive thorn in his heart from growing longer and longer.

Just like in history, Zhu Qizhen returned to the capital in a sedan chair escorted by two knights.

Entered the city from Andingmen, then changed to a French car, and finally met the brothers outside Dong'anmen.

Everything was in accordance with the established etiquette, Emperor Zhu Qiyu paid homage to Emperor Zhu Qizhen, and then Zhu Qizhen replied, and then the brothers held hands and cried, and humbly and politely conceded to each other many times for the emperor's position.

Zhu Qiyu will definitely not be sad, he wishes that Zhu Qizhen will never come back, so he is just doing superficial work, but Zhu Qizhen is really sad, he regrets his simplicity at the beginning, and his heart is surging for finally returning to the capital of his dreams, and he is also sad for the cold state of the world.

Zhu Qizhen's dormitory was arranged in the South Palace, that is, Hongqing Palace, which is an annex to the Forbidden City, and the scale is not small, but it is in disrepair and looks a little dilapidated.

Before leaving, Zhu Qizhen looked back behind him, Yuan Bin and Ha Ming, the lieutenants of the Jinyi Guard, Zhao Yan, the Jishi of the Hanlin Academy, and Wang Lin, the commoner, these four people did not abandon themselves when they were in the most dangerous and difficult time, but worked hard to solve problems for themselves, without them by their side, I don't know how to spend this more than year of prisoner life, I will remember you, goodbye my friend, if one day I can regain my freedom, I will definitely have a drink with you.

Zhu Qizhen is a little pure but not stupid, seeing a series of processes in which the imperial court received him, he has a certain psychological preparation for his future life.

Walking into the desolate Nangong, the door slowly closed behind him, and with a click, the door was locked, and someone faintly whispered outside: "Quick, pour this lead into the lock, and fill it more......"

Zhu Qizhen smiled indifferently, he had experienced ups and downs, and he had seen many things.

A thin figure groped her way out of the hall, her only remaining intact eye staring at the slightly clumsy figure in the courtyard. She wanted to cry, but the tears had long since dried up, and she was blind in one of her eyes, and even one of her legs was incurably injured because she had been kneeling on the ground for a long time praying to God, and she became a blind and lame woman.

Blind and lame, Qian refused to be seen by the Imperial Physician because she firmly believed that it was the price she had to pay for her husband's salvation from heaven.

There is no doubt that Qian is ignorant, but he is also infatuated.

It is difficult for some people to understand her self-harm, it does not mean that those people are cold-blooded, but that they have not experienced what Qian has experienced.

In the seventh year of orthodoxy, Qian married Zhu Qizhen and became the queen of the Ming Dynasty, when she was sixteen years old, one year older than Zhu Qizhen. Because this was the first time in the history of the Ming Emperor that he ascended the throne, it was personally organized by Zhu Qizhen's grandmother, the Empress Dowager Zhang, and the wedding was very grand.

After getting married, Zhu Qizhen liked his queen very much, and the relationship between the two was very good. If there is no accident, the Qian family's future days will be nothing more than fulfilling their duties as a queen, and then husband and children, and grow old with Zhu Qizhen, but an accident happened.

After the news of Zhu Qizhen's 'Northern Hunting' came, Qian felt that the sky had fallen, her brother Qian Qin and younger brother Qian Zhong also died in the civil and engineering changes, although her father Qian Gui was the governor of the central government, but he was in name only, and then Zhu Qiyu was the emperor, Qian was helpless, and he felt powerless about Zhu Qizhen's situation, so he could only cry day and night, praying that God could be merciful to save his husband, for which he was willing to pay any price.

Weeping, pleading, kowtowing, repenting, making wishes, all day and all night, regardless of the exertion, in the end she was blind and lame, but she was willing, just to see that figure again today.

"Zitong ......" Zhu Qizhen recognized his wife, in his impression, his wife was graceful and bright-eyed, not the blind and lame ugly woman in front of him, but the person in front of him was like a fake, it was his wife who had been with him for seven years.

Why did Qian become like this? Zhu Qizhen had mixed feelings, he felt shameless to face the Qian family, he was remorseful, guilty, and resentful of the injustice of the sky, but it was useless, and in the end he held the Qian family in his arms, as if holding a rare treasure.

Zitong, I will always be by your side for the rest of my life, even if the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, even if the sky is cracking, even if I die, I will not leave you, because this is what I owe you, and I am sorry for you.

There are brocade guards inside and outside the South Palace, no one is allowed to visit, and the eunuchs who serve Zhu Qizhen and his concubines are the eunuchs who are dissatisfied with Zhu Qizhen, and the food needs to be stuffed in from the small hole at the door, and all daily necessities can only be sent in regularly.

In order to improve their lives, Qian led a group of concubines to start doing some needlework, and then asked someone to send them outside to exchange for some food and drink.

On a certain day in a certain month, Zhu Qizhen watched his cool tree being cut down, and heard that the eunuch who was good friends with him was given death, he looked up at the sky and pondered for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

Because of the merit of escorting, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but reward him because of the rules, so Yuan Bin, the captain of the Jinyi Guard, was promoted to the Jinyi Guard, and Ha Ming was the general banner of the Jinyi Guard, and even Wang Lin got the official position of the Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi, as for Zhao Yan's reward, because he was a civil official and a Shu Jishi in the compilation of the Hanlin Academy, he was directly promoted to a level and became the editor of the seventh grade of the Hanlin Academy.

In Zhu Qiyu's opinion, these people are all people around Zhu Qizhen, and they have to be rewarded because of the rules, but what does it mean, just get by on face, do you want to be rewarded? Dream on.

After saying goodbye to Yuan Bin and Ha Ming, Zhao Yan and Wang Lin returned to the small courtyard they rented in the capital.

Zhao Xin, Yan Shi, Li Yun, Wang Ye, a few people were already looking through the autumn water at the gate of the courtyard, until they saw Zhao Yan and Wang Lin's figures appear on the corner of the street, and a few people put down their hearts and stepped forward to greet them.

Wang Ye kicked Wang Lin when he went up, and scolded in his mouth: "You bastard, you ran away without making a sound, did you still take me in your eyes?" ”

Wang Lin had killed people and seen blood, but in front of Wang Ye, he couldn't get angry at all, so he could only look at Zhao Yan aggrievedly, hoping that Zhao Yan would take a righteous action and draw a knife to help.

It's just that Zhao Yan has been surrounded, and he doesn't have the time to care about Wang Lin's father and son.

After saying a few words to his family, Zhao Yan's eyes looked into Yan's arms.

A little doll made of pink and jade was held in Yan's arms, and her two big eyes looked at Zhao Yan without blinking.

Zhao Yan asked: "This is a younger sister, she must be a beauty when she grows up." ”

Zhao Xin laughed and said, "You are wrong, it is a handle." ”

Because the small courtyard is too small, Wang Ye has booked a table in the restaurant not far away, Zhao Yan and Wang Lin took a bath, changed their clothes, and the group went to the restaurant to eat.

In the end, I heard that Wang Lin was actually given a small banner of Jinyi Wei, although he was only a petty official from the seventh grade, but he still made Wang Ye happy, and said that his ancestors had spirits.

It was already night, Zhao Yan took the tea cup handed over by Li Yun and put it on the table, and then grabbed her hand.

Li Yun struggled a little shyly, but didn't break away, so he had to say, "Xiang'er is still outside." ”

Zhao Yan laughed evilly, and as soon as he used his hand, Li Yun involuntarily crashed into his arms.

"For more than a year, you have been afraid of me, and my husband will treat you well."

Li Yun's face was blushing, and after thinking about it, he suddenly said, "People have something to tell you." ”

Zhao Yan asked while making a mistake, "What's the matter?" The spring night is short, or let's talk about it tomorrow. ”

"My clan uncle has been reinstated, and my father, my mother, and my brother have also returned." Li Yun struggled and said.

Zhao Yan paused, but did not stop, got up and hugged Li Yun and walked towards the bed while saying, "It seems that I am going back to Shenzhou to meet my father-in-law and mother-in-law in a few days, what gifts should I bring?" Why don't we have a baby and bring it back? ”

"Nasty." Li Yun slapped Zhao Yan twice, and then the red candle in the house went out, and it was another sleepless night.

The next few days were relatively leisurely, and Zhao Yan did not have many friends in the capital, none other than Li Xun, Liu Ji Wanan and others.

Li Xun has become a thousand-household official of Jinyi Wei with military exploits, and his son Li Recommendation has taken care of him, and he has already established himself in the capital, and he has also taken over the family.

Wang Lin has become a small banner of Jinyi Wei, and with Li Xun taking care of him, Zhao Yan is very relieved, otherwise with Wang Lin's ignorant temperament, he may be plotted one day.

If two months have passed, Zhao Xin and Wang Ye have already returned to Shenzhou, Zhao Yan goes to the Hanlin Academy every day to go on duty, and after the duty, he goes home to accompany Li Yun, and his life is very comfortable.

This day is over, Zhao Yan was dragged by Liu Ji and others to drink, Zhao Yan couldn't refuse, so he could only tell Li Er to go home and say something.

When the wine was hot, Yin Min, who had always been silent, suddenly spoke: "I heard that Hu Gong (Hu Hu), the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, wrote to His Majesty and wanted to worship the Emperor Taishang outside the Yan'an Gate on New Year's Day, but His Majesty did not like it, and clearly said that he would be exempted from the New Year's Day celebrations in the future. ”

Liu Ji also said: "Exactly, Your Majesty's mind is not something that we can speculate on as courtiers, but I rule the world with filial piety, and Your Majesty's move is really a little chilling." ”
