Zhang Zong, the son of the Hou of Shouning, said that he collided with the Yamen of Dongchang and went to the Jinyi Guard's prison!

When the news began to spread from the palace that I don't know which horn, it was just an instant, and all the major yamen of the five mansions and six departments of the Cabinet Metropolitan Procuratorate knew about it, and even the backyards of the mansions of the various nobles also got the news. In addition to being shocked, some people inevitably inquired about the movements of the Empress Dowager Zhang, and learned that the Empress Dowager was ill, and even the relocation to Renshou Palace, which was originally scheduled for a few days, was postponed, and there was naturally an uproar up and down.

Xu Xun was in the palace all afternoon, and when he returned to Xing'anbo's Mansion from the palace, when he got off the car at the second gate, he noticed that Aunt Ying, who was in charge of the second gate, and several servants were secretly looking at his face. Knowing that the news had spread to his house in a short period of time, he smiled secretly in his heart, but his face remained gloomy and gloomy as before, and anyone could see that he was in a rather bad mood. However, when he went all the way back to his yard, he found that Zhu Ying, who was full of anxiety, was already waiting there.

"Young Master!"

Although Xu Xun has now been crowned uncle, even if he is not hereditary, and there is no coupon, the family initially decided to change the title, but Xu Xun was refuted in a few words. Therefore, Zhu Ying curtsied and shouted, seeing that Xu Xun just nodded lightly, and kept walking straight inside, she stood in place for a moment, gritted her teeth and chased into the house.

"Young master, the slave maid heard that the prince of Shouning Hou was imprisoned in Jinyi Wei Prison by the emperor's decree?"

Xu Xun, who was already sitting on the main seat, raised his head and looked at her, remembering that she was sent by Shou Ninghou at the beginning, because she was smart and clever, and she was measured, and now she was almost half of the head of the inner house, and the sixth sister-in-law of Jin, who had never read a book and had not experienced the world after all, had only given her a hand, and the corners of his mouth showed a faint smile.

"Why, I'm worried that the old master's family will suffer some trouble because of this? I remember that you don't seem to be the servant of the Shouning Marquis Mansion, since you have been sent over by the Shouning Marquis, and the deed and so on are all here, what else do you have to worry about? ”

Seeing that Xu Xun said it lightly, as if the Shouning Marquis Mansion had nothing to do with him, Zhu Ying couldn't help but feel even more apprehensive in her heart, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally knelt down with her heart crossed, kowtowed before lowering her head and saying: "Young Master Mingjian, the Shouning Marquis Mansion only said that the slave maid was bought from outside and taught in the mansion for two years, but the slave maid's family is actually the servant of the Zhang family. When the old man was still a prisoner, the slave and maid family were the long-term workers of the Zhang family's hundreds of acres of land, and now the slave's father and mother are all on the grange of the Shouning Hou Mansion, and a younger brother is a small servant in the outer courtyard of the Jianchang Hou Mansion. ”

Xu Xun originally intended to put on a face, and when the time came, let Zhu Ying reveal his attitude towards this matter, so that people could misinterpret it, but he didn't expect to hear such a hidden situation, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while. Thinking that Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, seemed to be very arrogant, but in fact, there was such a character who was a servant of the Zhang family among the girls he sent, and the corners of his eyes were raised, but he looked at Zhu Ying and did not speak.

In all fairness, he used this girl very easily, he would not secretly send Qiu Bo, nor would he take advantage of all kinds of opportunities in the inner house to get on and off, and leave things to her to do, and none of them would be messed up, and unconsciously he almost forgot that this was someone sent by the Hou Mansion of Shouning. If she hadn't uncovered this stubble by herself now, the next day Xing might really have an accident because of his carelessness.

"Since I didn't know, why are you confessing this at this time? Shou Ninghou is the emperor's uncle, the queen mother's younger brother, are you still afraid that the emperor will be angry and really kill his relatives righteously, and then his family will be harmed? ”

Listening to Xu Xun's voice was so cold that there was no slightest temperature, Zhu Ying didn't even dare to raise her head, and only after taking a deep breath did she say sadly: "When the slave maid was in the Shouning Marquis Mansion, she used to take care of the flowers and plants in the courtyard of the eldest lady for a while, and vaguely heard the eldest lady say that the emperor has not been very enthusiastic about the marquis, so the queen mother let the eldest lady often enter the palace, and wanted the emperor and the cousins of the same generation to be more close, and they could also take care of it more in the future." Now that the Hou Ye and the prince have made such a catastrophe, if the emperor is really angry, he may not be able to care about his feelings, and besides, he ......"

After that, she suddenly fell silent. Xu Xun, who found the head, didn't urge, just sat there like this, she struggled for a long time, and finally said in a voice that was almost inaudible: "Besides, when the slave maid was in the Shouning Marquis Mansion, there was once a maid who was drunk and confided that the emperor was not the queen mother's own child at all. Although the person was killed by Hou Ye afterwards with her and a monk outside, but later there was Zheng Wang's case......"

Although Zhu Ying's voice became lower and lower, and it was almost difficult to hear clearly in the end, Xu Xun's heart was already bright.

At the beginning, because of Zheng Wang's case of pretending to be the emperor's family, he also deliberately inquired about what it was like for Empress Dowager Zhang to give birth to three children one after another. Compared with Zhu Houzhao's birth of Emperor Hongzhi, who granted amnesty to the world and granted the queen's mother's family a celebration with the whole world, and then established the crown prince soon after, the son and daughter he obtained later were much more low-key. If the latter two were biological, and Empress Dowager Zhang didn't know that they would die halfway through, how could she be resentful of this differential treatment. Besides, how can a woman like Empress Dowager Zhang, who puts everything on her face, be so concerned about the son born to her husband and other women? Therefore, there were such rumors in the Hou Mansion of Shouning early on, and it was clear that before Zheng Wang, a certain wind direction had already risen!

"Aren't you afraid that you will confess your origins, and instead of ignoring your parents and younger brother, I will also be angry and kick you out?"

Keenly aware that the voice was even colder, Zhu Ying shuddered, and after calming down, she asked for the surname to go out, and raised her head boldly: "The slave maid actually wanted to say it a long time ago, but she has always looked ahead and backwards, for fear that saying it will make the young master angry." But now that such a big thing has happened in the Shouning Hou Mansion, the slave maid is not for herself, but also for the sake of her parents and younger brother, and she no longer dares to hide it, and the slave and maid also want to dare to beg the young master to reach out and pull Shouning Hou! Even if the Hou Ye has 10,000 no, after all, he is the younger brother of the Queen Mother, and the emperor has only been on the throne for a short time, if the Queen Mother is angry, it will not only cause an uproar among the government and the opposition, but the young master, as a close minister of the Son of Heaven, will also be accused behind his back! ”

"You're bold!"

Seeing that after Zhu Ying finished speaking, she fell on her stomach with her forehead and did not move, Xu Xun thought that she was a girl, and she could actually come up with such a way to survive in death when she was in a dilemma, and she couldn't help but smile. However, the reward is rewarded, and he really wants to not punish her at all, just like this, but he is worried that she will escape this catastrophe lightly and skillfully, and continue to draw gourds and deceive her next time.

"Your parents and your brother, I will come forward to ask for someone, I expect that they will still give me this little face. As for the matter of Shouning Hou and the prince, it is a major matter of the imperial court, and I don't need you to point fingers. But ......" Xu Xun suddenly increased his tone, and said word by word, "You have fooled my father and son for so long, if there is no slight punishment, it seems that I have no rules!" ”

Just as he was talking about this, he only heard the voice of a little girl outside: "Young Master, Mrs. Shouninghou and the eldest lady ask to meet!" ”

Knowing that the mother and son came to the door directly, Xu Xun was slightly stunned, and glanced at Zhu Ying, who was biting his lip, and he said lightly: "Punish you for half a year, you will kneel in this room to Youzheng, and reflect on yourself!" ”

Seeing Xu Xun just stand up and go out of the door, and after a while, she heard a low voice of instructions outside, which was nothing more than saying that she was tidying up things inside, and idle people were not allowed to trespass, Zhu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but feel deep gratitude in her heart. The punishment of the moon was not explained to the outside account, but the punishment kneeling was in this house, she concealed such a big thing, Xu Xun still left her the greatest dignity, and clearly did not mean to put her aside from now on. Thinking of this, she immediately straightened her back and knelt there motionless.

Zhu Ying is just a maidservant, and Xu Xun is naturally handy when she rubs it, but when he sees the mother and daughter in the main hall, he will be in a lot of trouble. Zhang Jingxuan's yelling didn't count, even Mrs. Shouninghou's eyes were condensed when she looked at him, and after a few words of pushing, Zhang Jingxuan was really so angry that she turned her head and left, and when he saw Mrs. Shouninghou standing up coldly, he stepped forward to stop the noblewoman.

"Madame, but I have already heard that the prince of Shouning Hou went to collide with the West Factory, which I instigated, and I insisted on denying it afterwards, so I was safe and sound, but the prince was imprisoned because of this?"

All the things he wanted to question were rushed to Xu Xun, and Mrs. Shou Ninghou was dumbfounded for a while, and then sneered after a while: "Since you know, then you may give me an explanation?" ”

"Madame, please think about it, even if the emperor has always trusted me, but the queen mother is from the Zhang family after all, there is no reason why she would believe my words and not the words of the prince." Seeing that Mrs. Shouninghou was really hesitant, Xu Xun persuaded in a low voice, "If the prince didn't take advantage of the surprise to hit the East Factory, then Zheng San wouldn't be able to grab it back." And as long as such a person is here, Hou Ye can push everything on him cleanly, and it will not be easy to get out when the time comes? As for the prince, the emperor praised his courage this time, this so-called edict of the Jinyi Guard, but it was just a trick, and the next day it was said that the future would be bright. ”

"Tricks?" Mrs. Shouninghou was a woman, but she never thought that such a major event that shook the capital would be a trick and was dumbfounded. After a while, she frowned and said, "If Pingbei Bo is just empty words, how can I believe you as a woman?" ”

"Madame thought that she was bored in the Jianchang Marquis Mansion, and she couldn't get into the palace, so she came to me. Now, if Shou Ninghou and the prince are really in a slump, why should I bother to talk so much with you? It's just a few days of effort, can't Mrs. wait? Of course, the other reasons for this matter will be known after the Hou Ye and the prince return home. ”

Mrs. Shouninghou thought about the gloating attitude of her younger sister Mrs. Jianchanghou, and couldn't help but grit her silver teeth again. When Xu Xun whispered to her not to show the slightest tone to Zhang Jingxuan after she went out, she didn't care how to scold him, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and look at Xu Xun twice.

Before, Master Luo once said that he would have nobles to help him, could it really be confirmed in him?
