Li Shu showed a fierce gaze in his eyes, and said fiercely: "Although I can't do a big job, I have another plan, if this plan is successful, it may be a different situation in the future!" ”

Tianyi Daoist looked at Li Shu and suddenly felt that he seemed to be becoming more and more unfamiliar with this person.

Although Liu Jing is a famous family, he is not wealthy. Because his father Liu Bowen was an honest official and did not leave him any property, Liu Jing's residence in Beijing was just a very ordinary small courtyard, and it was rented. The yard is small, the house he lives in is not big, and it looks a little shabby, the largest and most conspicuous household in the house is the bookshelves that almost reach the top of the shed, most of the books on the shelves are left by Liu Ji, and what Liu Jing has learned all come from these books.

After dinner, Liu Jing habitually reads at night. Suddenly, the door of his room opened strangely, and then two people walked in, both of them were dressed in black, both masked, holding a knife and a sword in their hands, Liu Jing was shocked, could it be a killer?

The man with the knife on the left said gloomily: "Mr. Liu, my master has an invite, come with us." ”

Liu Jing knew that the two of them were not good, how could they invite someone to carry weapons with their faces covered. But why did they kidnap me? Liu Jing was not surprised, closed the book in his hand, leaned back in the chair, and said calmly: "I don't know who your master is?" In the next scholar, who has neither official position nor money, how can it be worth the two masters to make such a big effort? ”

The black-clothed man with the sword next to him said impatiently: "What nonsense, let you go, hurry up and go with our brother, so as not to suffer." You scholars have fine skin and tender meat, and you can't afford to let our brothers do it. ”

Liu Jing didn't want to leave, but he also knew that a hero didn't suffer the loss in front of him, so he kept thinking about ways to delay time and save himself, and said to the two with a smile: "Two strong men, let me put the book back," After speaking, he slowly stood up, picked up the book, walked towards the shelf, and compared the book, as if looking for the original place of the book.

The man with the knife obviously saw Liu Jing's thoughts, snorted and said: "Mr. Liu, don't bother, it's not just our two brothers who are here tonight, we have more than a dozen brothers outside, you are a powerless scholar, you can't escape from our palms, it's only right to follow us obediently." ”

Liu Jing turned around and said calmly: "I'm a scholar, I definitely can't run, why should you be in a hurry, you have to pack up before leaving." ”

The two of them were really impatient, and stepped forward to pick up Liu Jing on the left and right, Liu Jing was supported with his arms and his feet on the ground, and he was really anxious at this moment: "Who are you from?" What are you going to do with me? ”

"Be quiet!" The person holding the knife on the left was very angry, and slapped Liu Jing on the back of the head.

Liu Jing didn't completely faint, he felt like he was flying, suddenly, Liu Jing was thrown to the ground, this fall, Liu Jing woke up, only to see more than a dozen black-clothed people in front of him and around, and there were also six black-clothed people standing opposite him, obviously, the two sides were facing each other.

The middle of the six black-clothed men on the opposite side said coldly: "Either you leave Liu Jing behind, or we will leave your little life." ”

And the man in black in front of Liu Jing smiled: "Who wants whose life depends on what the guy says." ”

The two sides did not talk speculatively and fought, although the six black-clothed people who blocked the road were few, but their martial arts were higher, and they had the upper hand as soon as they fought, and they put seven or eight people on Liu Jing's side in a row, and when the last two people next to Liu Jing rushed up, a person on the opposite side suddenly rushed over, picked up Liu Jing and left.

Liu Jing couldn't break free, so he could only let this person carry him on his back, but soon, Liu Jing put his mind at ease, because he saw that the back door of the Qin Wangfu was in front of him, and the man in black did not leave the door, and jumped into the courtyard, this person seemed to be very familiar with the Qin Wangfu, and ran all the way to the inner courtyard, this route Liu Jing couldn't be more familiar, every time he entered the Qin Wangfu, he also walked along this route, but the man in black did not carry Liu Jing to the backyard where Zhu Fan lived, but went straight to the study, at the door of the study, this person slowly put Liu Jing down, Then, without saying anything, he flew up to the eaves, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

Liu Jing wondered in his heart, he saved himself so coincidentally, could it be that Zhu Fan had been arranging for someone to protect him secretly? Or is it spying on yourself? He was just about to push the door into the study, when he saw the courtyard door open, and then two people went straight to the study and trotted over, the one in front was Zhu Fan, and the one in the back should be the man in black who had just rescued him. Zhu Fan was obviously woken up from his sleep, his hair was messy, and his clothes were also draped indiscriminately, he ran to Liu Jing, took Liu Jing's hand, and asked with concern: "Mr. is frightened, but is he hurt?" ”

Liu Jing was moved in his heart and smiled slightly: "The prince is worried, but the other party didn't hurt me." Lord Wang, the wind is heavy at night, so let's go in and talk. ”

As soon as he entered the house, Liu Jing smiled and said to the man in black behind Zhu Zhang: "Was this strong man rescued just now?" ”

The man in black didn't speak. But Zhu Fan on the side asked: "Can you be sure who wants to kidnap Mr.?" ”

Only then did the man in black speak, and replied in a slightly hoarse voice: "I can't be sure, it's not like Jinyiwei, but it's not like a gang in the area of Zhili in the capital, and it's not weak." ”

Zhu Fan twisted his eyebrows: "I didn't ask you who those minions were, I want to know who is behind the scenes." ”

The man in black nodded, and immediately said, "Although we can't be sure now, we will take back the other party's corpse and see if we can find some clues on the corpse and weapon." ”

Zhu Fan waved his hand, and the man in black immediately retreated. Zhu Fan asked worriedly, "Have you had a holiday with anyone recently?" ”

"It's definitely not a festival," Liu Jing, who had been frowning, slowly squeezed out a few words: "Either the prince or the king of Jin." ”

Zhu Fan muttered: "King Jin? ”

The King of Jin entered Beijing, and less than a month after the empty seal case occurred, the King of Jin, the King of Yan, and the King of Zhou returned to Beijing one after another.

Among all Zhu Yuanzhang's sons, Zhu Li, the king of Jin, has been smart and clever since he was a child, so he has always been Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite son, and he has been very arrogant since he was a child.

In fact, Zhu Li also has eyes and ears in the capital, and as soon as the empty seal case was issued, Zhu Li learned the details in Taiyuan, and immediately invited his chief think tank Du Huan to discuss.

Although Du Huan's official position is not high, he is only a young Zhan affair in the Jin Palace, but Du Huan is also a teacher and friend in Zhu Li, and he is the number one think tank, but whenever there is anything, Zhu Li always consults with Du Huan as soon as possible. Speaking of this Du Huan is not a mortal, not only a book is the best in the world, he is full of poetry and books, clever and practiced, steady and thoughtful Zhou Xiang, know how to advance and retreat, and the most important thing is that although he is deeply respected by Zhu Li, he is usually low-key and unassuming, so in the Jin Palace, except for a few close confidants, few people know Du Huan's status.

According to Du Huan's analysis, the prince has been assisting the emperor in handling daily government affairs in recent years, and the affairs of the household department have been handled by the prince.

Du Huan's conclusion is that this entry into Beijing is an important opportunity for Zhu Li, and if he performs well, once Zhu Yuanzhang abolishes the reserve and establishes another one in the future, then Zhu Li will have the possibility of peeking at the artifact. But Du Huan also put forward another point of view, although the prince's status in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart has declined, but after all, he has been the prince for many years, and Zhu Yuanzhang has not clearly revealed the intention of replacing the prince, so this time when entering Beijing, it should be based on cautious observation, converge personality, show virtue and ability, and perform well in front of Zhu Yuanzhang is right, otherwise once the deeds are leaked prematurely, it will not only become the target of the princes, but also attract the disgust of the courtiers and even Zhu Yuanzhang, so the gains will outweigh the losses. With Du Huan's analysis and judgment, the king of Jin, who has always been arrogant, is unusually low-key when he enters Beijing this time, except for the honor guard that the vassal king should have, some subordinate officials and family members, the rest of the personnel are not brought, and after entering Beijing, they did not walk around, and after entering the palace to face the saint, they honestly returned to the house, neither visited the minister, nor did they play around, and the previous Zhu Li, who did his own thing, was like two people.

It should be said that Du Huan's strategy of hibernation and standby for Zhu Li is to the point, because at this time in Beijing, in addition to Zhu Zhang, King of Qin, Zhu Zhang, King of Jin, Zhu Di, King of Yan, Zhu Zhen, King of Chu, Zhu Zhen, King of Qi, Zhu Zi, King of Tan, Zhu Tan, Zhu Tan, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang called the older vassal kings back.

But unlike Zhu Di, the king of Jin, Zhu Di, who returned to Beijing this time, was much more high-profile, because Zhu Di not only brought back all his family members, but also brought three treasures to the emperor, these three treasures were made by Zhu Di after repeated pondering and weighing, and in the correspondence with Yao Guangqi, Yao Guangqi also approved and supplemented.

Zhu Di returned to Beijing only two days later than Zhu Li, but he was still the last vassal king to enter Beijing, of course, as a vassal king, the first thing Zhu Di did after entering Beijing was to enter the palace to meet the emperor, and Zhu Yuanzhang specially met Zhu Di in the Wuying Palace.

Although there is no sword, as soon as the majestic and awe-inspiring Zhu Di entered the main hall, he was immediately secretly admired and appreciated by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Di was just about to bow down, but Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "My son is exempt." As he spoke, he stood up, stepped under the Danxi, took Zhu Di's hand, and looked up and down.

"Worthy of being my son!" Zhu Yuanzhang rarely praised his son in person, and patted Zhu Di's shoulder, as kind as the father and son of ordinary people's families: "Back then, my father also used to grow in the prancing horse field, but now I am old, and I can't go to the battlefield, I have to count on you, Beiping is the most important screen domain in the north of the country, and my son lives up to expectations." ”
