Chapter 291: Zhang Rui jumps into the sea

Ningbo port in the early morning has been very lively, many ships in yesterday has been prepared, today when the sun just rose, immediately anchored and left the port, after all, they also have to hurry to the next port, try to avoid sailing at night.

Among the ships leaving the port, there was a very ordinary looking ship, but when the surrounding merchant ships saw this ship, they all gave way to each other, because this ship was flying the flag of the city shipping department, that is, this was an official ship of the city shipping department to collect taxes, and they merchants could not afford to offend.

However, the merchants who gave way did not know what to do, there were no people from the city ship on the official ship of the city ship, except for the shipwrights, all of them were brocade guards and eunuchs, and in the cabin, a young eunuch sat there, with a resentful look on his face, this person was Zhang Rui, who Zhou Zhong asked Wang Gui for help and came here from the capital.

Since losing power, Zhang Rui has been tortured in the palace, and a little eunuch specially asked him to go out of the palace that night, and also told him a happy event, that is, to transfer him out of the palace to do errands.

When he first heard the above news, Zhang Rui was also overjoyed, thinking that his hard life had finally come to an end, but soon he felt that something was wrong, after all, he offended Zhou Chong, who was the number one celebrity in front of His Majesty, and even Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong had to slap each other, so as long as the other party didn't speak, who would dare to use himself again?

Thinking of this, Zhang Rui was also immediately cold, and he thought that the matter sent to him out of the palace this time was not clear, that is, he did not say where he would go to serve, and he did not say who promoted him, and what was even more weird. He has also seen the appointment of transferring him out of the palace just now. Everything was fine. In other words, this problematic appointment was made through a formal process.

Who the hell has so much energy? In fact, Zhang Rui doesn't need to guess at all to know this question, except for Zhou Chong, who even has to use Gu Dayong, I'm afraid that only the emperor in the leopard room has His Majesty, but His Majesty will not pay attention to his little person at all, so the only possibility is that Zhou Chong is doing ghosts behind his back.

It was precisely when he guessed these that Zhang Rui suddenly became a little panicked, but he couldn't help it, because the order was real. It is impossible for him to disobey, and this time there are a few other little eunuchs who go with him, although these little eunuchs are called to serve, but they are actually to monitor him, and there is even a small team of brocade guards with him, it can be said that the guards are very strict, and he usually has to be followed even when he goes to the toilet.

"Zhou Chong, you hurt me at the beginning, and I was bullied in the palace, but even so. You're not going to let me go, do you really want to kill them all? Zhang Rui, who was sitting in the cabin, suddenly stood up. In an angry and resentful tone, he said hatefully.

All the way from the capital, he almost didn't have any personal freedom, but he endured all this, but what made Zhang Rui most uncomfortable was that he still didn't know why Lu Dao Zhouzhong had to spend so much effort to get it to Ningbo Mansion? It is this kind of unknown future that makes Zhang Rui suffer even more, and during this time, he can't sleep or eat, and the whole person looks much older, and even the white hair on his head comes out.

"Zhang Rui, your breakfast!" When Zhang Rui was walking back and forth in the cabin like a sleepy beast, suddenly the door of the cabin opened, and a fat eunuch walked in with a food box.

"Grandpa Niu, please stay, the little brother has something to say!" Seeing that the fat eunuch who delivered the food was leaving, Zhang Rui immediately stopped the other party and said, this fat eunuch surnamed Niu is usually responsible for delivering food to himself, and he is a eunuch he is more familiar with.

"What's the matter?" Hearing this, Grandpa Niu stopped and asked, but the expression on his face was very cold, and he didn't seem to want to say too much to Zhang Rui.

"Father-in-law Niu, the little brother wants to know where we are going, and which father-in-law is we going to work under?" Zhang Rui said with a flattering face, he now wants to know where these people are going to take him, and what Zhou Zhong plans to do with him? Although this surnamed Niu is just a food deliverer, he should know something.

I saw that Grandpa Niu looked up at Zhang Rui after hearing this, although he knew that this Zhang Rui had lost his position because he had offended a nobleman, and this time they were also going to escort Zhang Rui to see the nobleman, but after getting along along the way, Zhang Rui was also respectful to him, and he did not have the shelf of the former Dongchang Governor, so for the sake of this bit of incense, Grandpa Niu was not good at throwing his sleeves and leaving.

Thinking of this, Grandpa Niu sighed and said: "We just left Ningbo Mansion, and the next thing is to go to Shuangyu Port, it is said that it used to be a port opened by some smugglers privately, but now it has been re-incorporated into the jurisdiction of my Ming Dynasty by Lord Zhou, the Governor of the Four Seas, and the supervisor next to Lord Admiral is Wang Gui Wang Gonggong!" ”

After Niu Gonggong said these words, no matter what Zhang Rui's reaction was, he immediately raised his leg and went out, and closed the cabin door, although he shouldn't have said this to Zhang Rui, but they were about to arrive at Shuangyu Port, and Zhang Rui would definitely know the Tao by then, so it was nothing for him to say it earlier.

"Shuangyu Port?" Zhang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this name, and then suddenly remembered that he had heard others talk about it before, Zhou Chong was originally a smuggler, and his smuggling nest seemed to be this Shuangyu Port, but he didn't expect to be brought here.

"Shuangyu Port is Zhouzhong's old nest, since he is here, then the Bai sisters must also be here, and there are also ...... Qingqing, my daughter ......" When Zhang Rui said this, he suddenly kept silent, since he entered the palace, he has no relatives in this world for a long time, but when he heard that his original wife Bai Junwan actually gave birth to a daughter for himself, this made Zhang Rui's heart can't help but feel a little wavering, after all, the flesh and blood are deep, no matter how ruthless he is, he still loves his daughter very much, but unfortunately Bai Junwan does not let Qingqing recognize him as a father at all.

Thinking of Bai Junwan and her daughter Qingqing, Zhang Rui only felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly seemed to understand something. If Zhou Zhong wanted to kill him, I am afraid that he would die in the palace without knowing it, and there was no need to spend so much effort to bring him to Shuangyu Port, so the only explanation was that Zhou Zhong did not want to kill him, and it was even likely that he was entrusted by Bai Junwan to bring him to Shuangyu Port, because Bai Junwan must have many questions to ask herself.

"It must be so, it turned out that Junwan wanted to see me, I ...... I ......" After guessing the truth of the matter, Zhang Rui's face suddenly became panicked, and even a little frightened, because he really didn't want to see Bai Junwan's mother and daughter, especially in his current state of having nothing.

Maybe in the eyes of Zhou Chong's bystanders, and even the victims of the Bai sisters, Zhang Rui is a beast that is inferior to a beast, and it is just a matter of abandoning his wife to become a eunuch, but after gaining power, Zhang Rui wants to send Bai Junwan to the palace to win the favor of Emperor Zhengde, which is not only disgusting, but even inferior to a beast.

But only Zhang Rui himself knows that he actually loves his wife very much, and he loves his daughter even more, but his love is different from others, maybe Bai Junwan and others can't accept it, but Zhang Rui firmly believes that he is doing it for their good.

However, it is a pity that Zhang Rui's plan was very good, and he also realized his "love" for Bai Junwan step by step, but later Bai Junwan ran away with her sister and daughter, which disrupted Zhang Rui's plan at once, coupled with Zhou Chong's intervention later, it knocked the power he finally got into the dust, and the past scenery was gone, which also made Zhang Rui's confidence accumulated with great difficulty come to naught, so he didn't want to see Bai Junwan's mother and daughter at this time anyway.

"No, I don't want to see them, I'm going to get out of here!" I saw Zhang Rui walking back and forth in the cabin a few times like a sleepy beast, and suddenly stopped and said to himself in a panic.

After speaking, I saw Zhang Rui look at the cabin door, he knew that there were two brocade guards there, and he couldn't escape from there anyway, fortunately, there was a small window in the cabin, Zhang Rui immediately walked to the window, stretched out his hand and pulled it but couldn't open it, and then looked closely, but found that the window was nailed with nails, it seems that these people have long prevented him from escaping.

Seeing that even the only window that could escape was nailed, Zhang Rui was not discouraged, only to see him rummaging in the cabin, hoping to find some tools to open the window, but those who guarded him thought very carefully and did not leave him any tools at all.

Looking at the empty cabin, thinking that he could reach Shuangyu Port in two or three hours at most, this made Zhang Rui even more flustered, I saw him quickly run to the window, and checked it carefully, and found that there were not many nails on the window, and the nails were not very strict, which made Zhang Rui's heart cross, and he simply opened his mouth to bite the nails on the window, but he didn't expect to be really bitten off by him, and the whole window was also a little active.

With a nail in his hand, Zhang Rui finally saw a glimmer of hope, and then he used the nail as a tool, one by one to pry up the nails on the window, and it took nearly an hour to finally get all the nails on the window out, and the window could finally be opened, but when he pushed the window open, what he saw was a sea.

Zhang Rui is a southerner, and his family is relatively poor, so when he was a child, he often went down to the river to fish, and he knew some water, but it was only in a small river ditch, like the sea in front of him, it is estimated that even if Zhang Rui's water quality is good, I am afraid that he will be drowned in the end.

"Zhou Chong, even if I die, I won't let you go!" Looking at the ocean in front of him, Zhang Rui roared with a hideous face, and then jumped into the sea through the window without hesitation. (To be continued......)
