Chapter 393: The Emperor's Grandson Is Not Valuable
Chapter 393: The Emperor's Grandson Is Not Valuable
Although Li Maofang's cynicism about Zhang Yue was extremely hot, and the frequent intercourse in the past few nights also hollowed out his body, the word gunpowder was too relevant, so under Zhang Yue's eyes, he had to hurriedly put on a few clothes and go out with hatred. However, what he didn't expect was that when he passed by the two shivering young girls outside, Zhang Yue suddenly stopped and commanded the two.
"You two, go one inside and see how the one on the bed is, and the other go to the doctor."
Li Maofang was already angry in her heart, and couldn't help but stab at this time: "It's just a slave, you are kind!" ”
"Anyone's life is fate, is it good for you Fuyang Hou to die at this time?"
As he spoke, Zhang Yue had already gone down to the courtyard, and when several sergeants carried out a few boxes from the west wing of the courtyard that served as a warehouse, and an old soldier in the Shenji battalion carefully opened them one by one to inspect them, and stood up and nodded to determine the contents of them, Zhang Yue was certainly not surprised, but the others in the courtyard were suddenly silent.
Most of them here are middle-aged sergeants who belong to the Shenji Battalion, and they have never used gunpowder on weekdays, and others don't know how powerful the things here are, but they know it. But what they wonder is, where did these things come from?
"Impossible...... I checked it at the beginning, and it was clearly a treasure here! ”
Seeing that Zhang Yue stepped forward and ordered the temporary sealing of these gunpowder boxes and still put them back in the west wing, Li Maofang, who had just shouted that it was impossible, was suddenly shocked. He didn't care that the weather was still cold, so he ran down the steps in three or two steps, and shouted angrily at Zhang Yue: "Such a dangerous thing is placed here, what if something happens, you can quickly take people and transport them all!" ”
"Danger, this thing has been stored here for more than a day or two in Fuyang Hou, why do you have to transport it tonight?" Zhang Yue turned around at this time, and seeing Li Maofang's face full of anger, he asked again, "In addition, Fuyang Hou just said that you checked it at the beginning, so you know that these gunpowder are placed here?" ”
"I know what...... Okay, you Zhang Yue, a petty official like a sesame mung bean, actually dare to deceive Benjue! ”
Although Li Maofang didn't have a few books in his stomach, he was born in the royal family, and many things were as natural as eating and sleeping, and he suddenly realized that Zhang Yue was using his own words. However, after only scolding, he was shocked and angry at the thought of what these dozen boxes of gunpowder piled up in his west wing meant, and his face immediately turned white.
"How would Benjue know that this was gunpowder, and I don't know which damn bastard did it!"
"Don't talk about these dozen boxes, it's just a box of gunpowder, I'm afraid it's not something you can get from Fuyanghou." Zhang Yue didn't want to talk nonsense with Li Maofang at this time, so he said bluntly, "There are people in Jingshi who are plotting rebellion, the stakes are very high, since the gunpowder has been found here, I also asked the Marquis of Fuyang to change his clothes and enter the palace to plead to the emperor." Come four people and escort the Marquis of Fuyang into the palace! ”
Originally, he was weak after indulging in desire, but as soon as he came out and blew the cold wind, he found such a terrible fact, and then heard the clear word rebellion, even if he was arrogant and domineering like Li Maofang, he couldn't help but feel weak and messed up. Naturally, he had turned those rebellious thoughts in his heart, but that was just thinking about it - in his opinion, it was only right to let others plan and calculate him to enjoy it, how could he put himself in it for no reason?
"Zhang Yue, don't you announce personal vendetta and spew blood!"
"If I really want to declare a personal vendetta, I will directly carry the gunpowder into the palace in person at this time for the emperor to see!"
Zhang Yue was full of worries about the affairs of the Meng family at this time, and seeing that Li Maofang was still entangled, he replied angrily and ordered directly: "Twelve people stay to guard the gunpowder in the west wing, go to two people to inform the five cities of the Soldiers and Horses, and leave four people to accompany the Marquis of Fuyang into the palace." If he doesn't want to go, he doesn't have to force it, and there will naturally be Jinyi guards to get people at that time. The rest of me come with me, there are countless things to do at night, and there is no reason to waste time here! ”
Seeing that Zhang Yue waved his hand, the sergeants in red jackets in the courtyard agreed in unison, and then neatly assigned the people who stayed and followed, and saw Zhang Yue striding out without looking back, Li Maofang really woke up to the fact that this time the matter was not small, otherwise how could Zhang Yue leave without leaving him? The weather was cold in this month, and his body was cold, but now his heart was even colder. Even if he is a fool, he knows that he has helped others to take on the most terrible thing, if he can't do something, he will be condemned to this black cauldron!
"Zhang Yue, you stop for me!"
In a hurry, Li Maofang naturally couldn't open his mouth and close his mouth, but he still didn't have the habit of lowering his body and begging for help. He hurried after him and grabbed Zhang Yue's sleeve: "You must have a way to help me!" I am the emperor's own grandson, as long as I can get through this difficulty, I will be fine if the emperor is angry on another day, and I will never forget you at that time! My mother is Princess Yongping, my father even lost his grandfather and other family members in order to follow the emperor, and the emperor will definitely remember that credit! ”
Quietly breaking free of his sleeves, Zhang Yue said lightly: "Fuyang Hou, I'm just a small official like a sesame mung bean, and I can't do anything about such a big thing." ”
Seeing Zhang Yue turn over and get on his horse, a group of sergeants trotted to follow, and Li Maofang, who was so angry that his face turned blue, could only watch as the snow left a messy footprint. After standing there for a long time, he suddenly spat on the ground fiercely, completely forgetting any tutoring rules. Thinking of the eldest aunt's remaining son-in-law, he was second among the emperor's grandsons, and he was quite conniving on weekdays, he couldn't help but gradually gain confidence. That's right, with the credit of my father in the past and the identity of my mother, a few boxes of gunpowder are nothing!
Thinking of this, he suddenly flicked his sleeves arrogantly and strode back to the upper room. Picking up the curtain of the side room and entering the bedroom, he found that Zixiang had been helped up by the girl, but there was a circle of purple bruises on the pink jade neck. Thinking that he was cheated hard by Zhu Gaosui, the third uncle, he almost had the urge to step forward and strangle people again, but after thinking about it again and again, he still held back, so he no longer looked at her who was curled up in a ball in fright, and called the girl to find clothes to wear.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Maofang stopped dressed and left the house. Because he had just lost face, he was wearing a purple and gold crown at this time, wearing a unicorn suit and stepping on deerskin court boots, deliberately extremely luxurious from head to toe, and even the crane that avoided the snow was a snow-white silver fox skin, without a trace of variegation. If it weren't for the fact that all the sergeants in the courtyard had seen his embarrassed appearance just now, they would have applauded and been jealous in their hearts, but at this moment they were all muttering in their hearts.
This is to enter the palace to ask for sin, not to enter the palace to congratulate, what are you doing dressed up like this?
Since being promoted to the capital division, it is the first time that the largest city in the north has been so chaotic. The city is full of soldiers dressed in all kinds of clothes, and the jackets on their bodies are red, green and blue, although the restraints are quite strict in this city, and few people do anything like robbing the people, but there are still not a few people who are frightened. Even when Zhang Yue passed through Qianmen Street with more than 40 people, he was inevitably stopped and intercepted by the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and he was not allowed to go until he saw the official seal.
"My lord, why don't you go to Meng's house first?"
Hearing Hu Qi's question, Zhang Yue, who was originally walking slowly, glanced back at the more than forty people who were not in a hurry and followed behind, and then said in a deep voice: "Lord Yuan is thoughtful, he must have led people to go straight there, just wait for the emperor's orders, and now I will go in vain." ”
Hu Qi has followed Zhang Yue since he started in Qingzhou, and knows that the Zhang family and the Meng family are not only related by marriage, but Zhang Yue has at least a good impression of the four girls of the Meng family. At this moment, although he knew that he shouldn't talk too much, he still cautiously reminded: "My lord, this time the matter is not trivial, if you can't handle it carefully, I'm afraid it will involve countless people." Especially the Meng family......"
"Involving countless ...... When those people were planning, they couldn't have imagined that they would be involved in countless cases! Before I came to Dengcao Hutong, I sent someone to go to Wang's house to see Gao Zheng for this, and the matter of the celebrant and the guard was put aside for the time being, all kinds of rebellion, including the forgery of the edict, were all said by Gao Zheng in the final analysis, and only he knew the truth best, and now he just took it back to the palace. If he just pulled Meng Xian's tiger skin to make a big banner, it would be easy to do, and then he could still think of ideas in the future. ”
Despite this hope, Zhang Yue did not say any more. I have to say that this probability is too low. Judging from Meng Xian's previous words and deeds, to say that he was not involved in this incident, even he didn't believe it at all. But even so, he had to find Gao Zheng first to interrogate him, and then think of other ways if this road didn't work. If the crime is really confirmed, the Baoding Marquis Mansion has a fifty percent hope to escape, but if Meng Xian's family is miserably lost...... The best result is that neither man nor woman is a slave!
"By the way, even if the adults don't wait to see the Marquis of Fuyang just now, they should at least be perfunctory, he is the emperor's grandson after all."
"The emperor's grandson is worthless!" Zhang Yue, who was in an extremely bad mood, did not hide his disgust, "If he doesn't justify his mistakes in front of the emperor, admits his mistakes and pleads guilty, and makes up an acceptable excuse, then at most he will be confined to the knighthood." But if he doesn't know what to do, then no one can say what the angry emperor will do. In short, even if his mother is Princess Yongping, this time she can't save him. ”
And in the last sentence, Zhang Yue just turned around in his heart - Zhu Di may be able to shelter King Zhao, but Li Maofang, the grandson, is not surnamed Zhu, what is it in the emperor's heart?
