Zhao Mingliang began to complain loudly after learning that the woman in front of him who was like a strong man was his niece and daughter-in-law.

Zhao Mingliang told the story of their father and son hiding in Tibet and starving to death in the past few years, and when his wife was old and frail, hiding in the mountains and forests and starving to death, Zhao Mingliang cried loudly.

Ma Chunhua looked at the five big and three thick, but after all, she is a woman, and she is a woman with rich feelings in her heart. Now hearing Zhao Mingliang crying here, his wife couldn't help but empathize, and also cried in a low voice.

Zhu Luo, who was on the side, also wiped his tears and asked, "So you are really our uncle?" Then why did you go to the palace to cry out? ”

Zhao Mingliang wiped his tears to stop crying, and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, my hard-working son and I heard that the Liukou in Wuchang was beaten away, and I wanted to return to Wuchang to continue to run a shop, how do I know that Wuchang was occupied by Zuo Liangyu Zuo Marshal again, and then the Qing army came, these two armies are more ruthless than the Liukou, and our family's property and silver were taken away by them, and there is no way for me and my son to ask for food in Wuchang City." Originally, I thought that this life would be like this, but I didn't expect that a few years later, the junior ... No! His Majesty's army of Emperor Shenwu recaptured Wuchang, and my son Zhao Dequan and I met with the crown prince, who was very kind to my father and son, and took us to Nanjing to enjoy happiness. But just arrived at the gate of the palace, my son didn't do anything wrong at all, His Majesty the Emperor didn't know why he sent a group of brocade guards to arrest my son, I heard that he was in the prison, what can I do, I really can't help it, so I found the dog under the guidance of well-wishers! ”

Zhao Mingliang intermittently finished talking about what happened, and Ma Chunhua and Zhu Luo knew what was going on.

Ma Chunhua looked at Zhao Mingliang in embarrassment, the king of Wuchang County has a lot of power, and now Zhu Hongyi is also in charge of the Nanjing garrison, that is, the commander of the Jiumen Commander and the commander of the Jingshi garrison in later generations, it stands to reason that it is very simple to save a person. But Zhao Dequan was arrested by the emperor's order, which is not easy to do, I don't know what the emperor means. In addition, Ma Chunhua knew that her husband did not want to get involved in the court battle, and she did not dare to be the lord of the princess alone.

Ma Chunhua had no choice but to look at Zhu Luo and asked, "Daughter-in-law, what do you say about this?" ”

Zhu Luoke didn't have Ma Chunhua's concerns, she raised her eyebrows and said: "This must be my father's anger when he was young, and now he is angry with his cousin of the Zhao family, mother rest assured, I am just going to see the prince's younger brother, I will ask what's going on!" ”

After Zhu Luo said good words, he comforted Zhao Mingliang and promised to rescue Zhao Dequan, and then said goodbye to his mother-in-law Ma Chunhua, and rode to the East Palace.

Zhu Luo came to the door of the East Palace, and the Jinyi guards guarding the door all recognized this ancestor, knowing that the eldest princess was very favored in front of the emperor, and she was still a fellow mother with the prince, so she didn't stop and let Zhu Luo enter the East Palace Prince's Mansion.

However, the prince is not at home, and Zhu Hai is harming Ma Ning'er at this time. Zhu Luo saw that his younger brother was not there, so he found Huang Gou'er, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace.

Lao Huang is more than Chinese New Year's Eve years old, he used to be a eunuch in the palace of Chu in Wuchang, and fled to Guangdong after the city of Wuchang was broken, and he entered the palace to continue to do his own job of serving people. Of course, no one dares to call Huang Gou'er's name, and now everyone wants to call him Huang Gonggong when they see him.

However, Huang Gou'er didn't dare to pretend to be forced in front of Zhu Luo, not to mention that Zhu Luo was the prince's own sister, but Zhu Luo was favored by the emperor, killing a steward eunuch was almost the same as stepping on an ant. So when Huang Gou'er saw Zhu Luo coming, he quickly knelt down and said, "Old slave Yellow Gou'er greets Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!" ”

Zhu Luo has a heroic spirit, seeing Lao Huang respecting himself so much, haha, he picked up Huang Gou'er and said: "Lao Huang, get up quickly, you are my brother's henchman eunuch, what are you doing with this palace?" ”

"Your Highness, you are the master, and the old slave is the slave, as it should be!"

The yellow dog got up from the ground and asked, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, are you here to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”

"Yes, I heard that my brother is back, so I came to visit!"

"It's not a coincidence, just now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hurriedly returned to the palace and left, I heard that he went to the old mansion of Ma Ge!"

When Zhu Luo heard that Zhu Hai had gone to see his second uncle, there was probably something, but he still needed him to save people!

"Lao Huang, this palace asks you, do you know why my father put Zhao Dequan in prison?"

Huang Gou'er was very embarrassed to hear Zhu Luo ask this, this has already involved the family affairs of the Son of Heaven, and he is a eunuch who is implicated here.

Zhu Luo saw Huang Gou'er like this, he knew what was going on, and took a bill of exchange of one thousand taels of silver dollars from the ring behind him, and said: "Lao Huang, you know that this person is a relative of the mother-in-law of this palace, and this palace also knows that you are embarrassed, this is some silver dollars, you accept it!" ”

Huang Gou'er looked at the bill of exchange in his hand, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the old slave didn't follow the prince to Wuchang, I don't know the details!" "As soon as Huang Gou'er finished speaking, Zhu Luo was about to get angry, don't you know that this is entertaining the palace?

Seeing that this ancestor was about to get angry, Huang Gou'er hurriedly said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, but the old slave has heard from people who have been there what happened!" Qian Sun, the second son of Qian Ge's hometown, loves the master, know it! ”

Of course, this Zhu Luo knows that he heard that Qian Qianyi's second son is suave and very famous in Guangzhou, but what does this matter have to do with him?

"Master, Qian Sunai doesn't know how he got to Wuchang and became the master's staff, and the affairs of Master Zhao's family are related to Mr. Qian!"

Zhu Luo saw the yellow dog chattering here, and said impatiently: "Old Huang, let's talk about the point, what are you doing so much!" ”

"Yes! Be! At that time, Qian Gongzi had just arrived in Wuchang, and he didn't know how to conflict with Zhao Ergongzi, and I heard that Zhao Ergongzi used Jinyiwei's authority to bully Qian Gongzi. Master, you also know the stinky temper of these scholars, how do you think that Qian Gongzi hated Zhao Ergongzi in his heart, and when the emperor announced the decree, I don't know what Qian Gongzi said, Zhao Ergongzi stepped forward and beat Qincha, this is a big crime of losing his head! Master, think about it, can the emperor not be angry! ”

Zhu Luo heard Huang Gou'er say this and knew what was going on, it must have been Zhao Dequan who looked at Qian Sunai and wanted to rectify him, so Qian Sunai used unknown means to drive Zhao Dequan to beat him.

It's nothing to beat people, don't say that Zhao Dequan beat a dead eunuch, even if he beats a scholar, it's no problem, but if this person is the emperor's Qincha, then it's troublesome. The emperor's cha represents the emperor and is a symbol of the highest power of a country, and this kind of great disrespect is a dead end in that dynasty.

Zhu Luo was stunned when he heard Huang Gou'er finish speaking, he didn't expect things to be so tricky, what should I do? It is impossible to beg his father, and it is not easy to intercede for this kind of thing. Zhu Luo has no choice but to think about it, although she is a princess, she is also a woman after all. She had no idea about this kind of big thing, and after thinking about it for a long time, she decided to find a way for her husband!

Zhu Luo's father-in-law, that is, the concubine, is Zhu Hongyi's eldest son Zhao Hu, Zhu Hongyi's two sons, the eldest Zhao Hu wants to inherit the bloodline of the Zhao family, so he is still surnamed Zhao, and the second Zhu Bao wants to inherit Zhu Hongyi's throne, so he changed his surname to Zhu like his father.

Zhao Hu is twenty years old this year, and it has been a year since he married Zhu Luo, and now Zhao Hu is the battalion commander of Zhu Hongsan's Praetorian Guard Division, and he happens to be on duty in the palace today.

The city wall of Nanjing is divided into three layers, the outermost is the capital wall, which is the common Nanjing, the station of various central offices, what six departments, the five military governor's mansions, Dali Temple, Jinyiwei and so on are set up outside the Fengtian Gate and the Hongwu Gate. The imperial city wall in the middle, which is where the inner court is located, the inner prisons, the inner libraries, as well as the Taimiao, the Taisheji, the East Factory, the West Factory, the Nanjing Garrison Mansion and so on are all here. From here, then through the noon gate is the palace city, that is, where the Forbidden City of Nanjing is located, inside are all kinds of halls, etc., is the emperor's home.

The Praetorian Guard Division is stationed in the Yulin Left Guard behind the Imperial City, which was originally the station of Zhu Yuanzhang's Yulin Army, and it is reasonable that the Praetorian Division is stationed now. The Praetorian Guard Division guarded the Imperial City, and the palace city was guarded by the Jinyi Guard, so today Zhao Hu was on duty in the Nanjing Garrison Mansion in the southwest corner of the Imperial City.

Zhu Luo came out of the East Palace Prince's Mansion, passed through the Donghua Gate, bypassed the Duanmen, and came to the Nanjing Garrison Mansion.

The Nanjing Garrison Mansion is a forbidden place in the palace, there are twelve brocade guards wearing black flying fish suits standing guard at the door, and there is a platoon of soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Division patrolling outside the door, and outsiders cannot approach at all. But who Zhu Luo is, not to mention her princess identity, even Zhu Hongyi's daughter-in-law's identity is also known to everyone, and now Zhu Hongyi's official position is the Nanjing Town Guard, the Commander of the Janissary Division, the Sect Commander, and the Minister of the Guard, who are the top bosses of these Imperial Guards.

Guarding the garrison was a brocade guard, he saw a group of people coming from a distance, and was about to drink, but when he walked in and took a closer look, he found that the person who was the leader was Princess Changping.

The hundred households hurriedly put on a smiling face and stepped forward to greet them.

"But Princess Changping? I don't know what happened to Her Royal Highness the princess to guard the mansion? ”

Zhu Luo was in Bahu, he didn't dare in the palace, and when he saw the gatekeeper, he quickly took out the waist card given by his father and handed it to the hundred households, and said: "This hundred households, this palace came to find Zhao Hu, and he had some family affairs to talk to him!" ”

The hundred households knew the relationship between Zhu Luo and Zhao Hu, and laughed secretly in their hearts, this is the princess missing her husband, and they all chased her to the palace.

The hundred households glanced at Zhu Luo's waist card, bowed down and said: "The waist card is right, princess, please come in, Camp Chief Zhao is working in the West Wing!" ”

Zhu Luo let his maids wait outside the door, and walked into the garrison mansion alone. She hasn't been here once or twice, and she is familiar with the road, so she didn't need anyone to lead her and found Zhao Hu's office directly.

It's dinner time, Zhao Hu has just eaten with a few colleagues and is chatting in the house, but he didn't expect his wife to break in in a hurry.
