Zhu Youzhen was full of enthusiasm and devoted himself to cutting the domain, and the Luoyang Fuwang Mansion, which stirred up the storm, was calm.

Hong Chengchou received the order not to leave the customs for the time being, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fighting Luoyang is not a good idea now, and there will be a heart to serve the country, and the soldiers have no intention of dying.

Some time ago, there was a secret war between the imperial court and King Fu, Yang He's 100,000 army besieged the city of Luoyang for a day and a night, and less than 100 people could climb to the top of the city and die. Although the people don't know much about this news, who doesn't know about it?

With such a fiasco, the imperial court naturally cares about face and strictly prohibits talking nonsense everywhere. Luoyang is also very face-saving and never publicizes. One wants to pretend to be an uncle, and the other wants to pretend to be a grandson. Zhu Youzhen and Zhu Yousong, two cousins, hit it off and tacitly agreed. Nowadays, only the crows that pecked at the corpses at the beginning occasionally chirp about the Shura scenes under the castle.

In the small pavilion in the back garden of King Fu's mansion, cicadas and frogs are singing, endlessly. The steaming heat of the lake distorts the air. The lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red. The lotus flowers that fill the lake cover half of the water. In addition to the lake, there are two more in the pavilion. These two lotus flowers are juxtaposed, and they are beautiful and beautiful, and only two of them compare the half-lake ones.

Xiaolian's tight-fitting little coat was draped in a lake-blue thick dress as thin as cicada wings, drenched in sweat, and complained: "It's hot this day, as if it's going to roast people." ”

Zhu Yousong was also hot enough, touched her head dotingly, handed her a glass of cold wine, and said, "You look at the lake, dragonflies sweep by, swallows fly low." If you endure it any longer, it will rain soon. ”

As soon as the words fell, the wind suddenly rose, blowing the emerald green lotus leaves at the same time, and also lifted the Suzhou silk tulle on the two little stunners, and the spring light was infinitely looming.

The wind blew dark clouds, and the blue sky, which was still shining brightly, instantly darkened. Xiaohe exclaimed: "Master, the sky is about to fall!" ”

Zhu Yousong laughed, hugged the two in his arms, and with a loud click, the torrential rain poured down.

The wind carried the rain into the pavilion and wet the thin clothes of the three men. Zhu Yousong was afraid that the two of them would catch a cold, so he got up and hung down the gauze tents around the pavilion. The red gold bottom of the gauze swayed in the wind, but the texture was excellent, keeping the wind and rain out.

A high-spirited man, braving the heavy rain, hurried over. Through the gauze tent, I vaguely saw three figures in the pavilion. Two of them are delicate and thin, and they are thought to be the prince's forbidden belly. The big man didn't dare to take a closer look, so he bowed his head outside the pavilion and said, "Lord, the eunuch has come to the capital to deliver the decree, please go and receive the decree." ”

Zhu Yousong bit a sweet and sour grape with the core and peel off from Xiaolian's mouth, and said with a smile: "Where is the eunuch of the decree?" ”

"Wait in the flower hall."

Zhu Yousong rubbed his hands on the wet jade body, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said, "You go, take the decree on my behalf." He said that the king was not feeling well, and that he would come back to me with any will. ”

Dahan did not hesitate at all, turned around and left, as if the prince said that he could receive the holy decree on his behalf, which was just right.

The eunuch was dumbfounded, but because of the murderous reputation of the Fuwang Mansion, he did not dare to question it. After trembling and reciting the holy decree, he asked, "This military master, can I go?" ”

Zhu Yousong's guards nodded silently, their faces sank like water, and they didn't say a word. The little eunuch lowered his head, hurriedly withdrew from the prince, and fled back to the capital with a smoke. Today is different from the past, when the emperor was there, he came to the Fu Wangfu to run an errand, but he couldn't grab the beauty difference even if he broke his scalp. At that time, only the little eunuch who had a strong enough relationship had such an opportunity to come to the palace to make a fortune.

The little blessing king made a generous move, and everyone knew it. But now, the relationship between the court and King Fu is delicate, and he doesn't blink his eyelids. Who would dare to come? Only this unlucky little eunuch with no backstage was caught with a top bag. After announcing the holy decree, he fled for his life in a hurry.

The burly guard, dressed in a robe, came to the back garden outside the small pavilion. In the pavilion, the sound of warblers and swallows, coquettish and laughing constantly, makes people imagine the beautiful scenery inside when they hear it. The guard lowered his head and shouted loudly: "Lord Wang, there is a decree from the imperial court to commend the prince for taking state affairs as the priority and asking for soil cutting, and returning to Fengtian for loyalty." The emperor gave a marriage, which was the daughter of Zhou Yingqiu, the secretary of the ministry, and summoned the prince to Beijing to complete the marriage. ”

Zhu Yousong stood up and said to the guards in the rain: "What about the eunuchs? ”

"Just walked not far."

"Catch up with him and let him send a message to His Majesty the Emperor: Lao Tzu will not go, the reason he knows himself."

The guard turned, straightened his back, and walked out.

After a while, more than a dozen fast horses galloped out of the palace in the rain, and after a while, they intercepted the equally fast frame on the official road outside Luoyang City.

The little eunuch lifted the curtain and looked at the menacing knight, who was only here to ask for his life, almost scared, trembling and begging: "All the military masters spare their lives, the villain is just a messenger." ”

One of the knights in black armor and covered in armor said: "Go back and tell the emperor word for word, our prince said: Lao Tzu is not going, the reason he knows himself." ”

After the knight finished speaking, everyone turned their horses' heads and ran back to Luoyang. The little eunuch listened to the sound of horses' hooves splashing in the rain, and gradually faded away, before he dared to raise his head and open his eyes. muttered: "This little Fu King, arrogant at home..."

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, Zhu Youzhen was furious. He roared, "That's what he said? ”

The little eunuch didn't dare to say that he hadn't seen King Xiaofu at all, otherwise he, the eunuch who passed the decree, would be guilty of dereliction of duty and would lose his head.

He nodded hurriedly, and said indignantly: "It is indeed what King Xiaofu himself said, and the slave and maid were angry at him at that time, so how can there be many of his guards without fear. ”

Zhu Youzhen slapped the table hard, his palms were red without feeling pain, and he pushed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk to the ground with his sleeves. scolded: "Zhu Yousong is ambitious, contemptuous of the monarchy, and despises me. If you don't punish this fang, I swear not to be a human being. ”

In the Wenchang Building in Luoyang, Zhu Yousong also gritted his teeth and said to everyone in the hall: "The emperor's child is scheming and wants to murder me." This king is kind and sets an example, hoping that he can use the financial resources of the clan to save the current situation and give Daming a little hope. But this Dongshan wolf actually wanted to trick me into entering Beijing, what a dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people. ”

Zhou Shuye lowered his head and took a step forward and said, "Lord Wang, why don't you transfer Yue Chenfeng to enter the customs." ”

Zhu Yousong asked sideways, "What about Heishidu?" You have to beware of Kaifeng Mansion. ”

Zhao Hong's eyes flashed, and he clenched his fists and said: "Zhang Hao's five thousand men and horses, the siege of the city is slightly insufficient, and it is foolproof to guard the checkpoint." ”
