Chapter 167: Protecting the Calf and Beloved Wife, the Wrath of the Son of Heaven (Part II)

Beizhen Fusi ran to the mansion of the eldest princess of Renhe to arrest people?

At this moment, not to mention that Emperor Hongzhi was surprised, even Xiao Jing and Li Rong were also surprised. Empress Zhang was about to ask what had happened, but remembering the miserable and miserable appearance of Ren and the eldest princess kneeling in front of her and kowtowing and begging for pleading, her compassion immediately came up, and she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I just heard Yuan Niang talk about this matter, and I am very angry!" Even if the Jinyi Wei gang has the power to investigate, who allowed them to come like this, and dare to break into the eldest princess's mansion, it is really bold! ”

"Ye Guang would be so bold!"

Seeing the pitiful appearance of Ren and the eldest princess kneeling on the ground, Emperor Hongzhi remembered that she was widowed before she was thirty, and now that she encountered this kind of thing, she naturally felt pity, and immediately stood up, and actually personally helped the person up, and ordered the person to move the chair without looking back. At this time, Zhang Yong was still kneeling on the ground, and Xiao Jing, who had more convenient legs and feet, naturally rushed ahead. Although the eldest princess Renhe was twitching, she didn't forget to thank Xiao Jing when she sat down, and then grabbed Queen Zhang's hand.

"Imperial sister-in-law, when my man was alive, he was not angry, and when he died, I only regarded him as a person, but I am such a son, and I am still sensible at a young age. I also know that there are rules for the addition of officials in the imperial court, and I don't ask the imperial brother to make an exception for him, but now that he has been bullied, what is the point of my life! ”

The eldest princess Renhe said and bent down to hide her face and cry bitterly, Emperor Hongzhi saw that Empress Zhang was persuading there, and immediately lowered his face and ordered: "Go to Beizhen Fusi and ask Ye Guang what is going on!" Who gave him such the courage to dare to go to the eldest princess's mansion to arrest people without asking for a decree, it is simply arrogant! ”

Li Rong glanced at Xiao Jing slantedly, knowing that the other party had always been able to go around and around in Beizhen Fusi, so he coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, Beizhen Fusi is not better than other places after all, and it is not good to let those children go." is not only a big matter, but also involves the eldest princess, or the slave maid went to go in person, and the matter was also done more secretly. ”

"Okay, you can go!"

When the eldest princess Renhe heard that it was Li Rong who went out in person, she hurriedly wiped her face with a handkerchief, but she stood up with red eyes and saluted Li Rong, so panicked that the old eunuch hurriedly avoided it, and said again and again that she couldn't do it. When there was a commotion, as if God didn't want to let the few people here stop, a cautious voice suddenly came from outside.

"Your Majesty, Gonggong Chen, the master of ceremonies, is here, saying that he has transferred a letter from Lord Fu Siye in Beizhen!"

"This really means Cao Ying, Cao Ying has arrived! Let him in! Emperor Hongzhi frowned, but after all, he still announced Chen Kuan. When Chen Kuan hurriedly entered the house with a letter in his hand, he waved his hand without waiting for him to kneel down and salute, "Don't use these false texts, what Ye Guangcheng has entered, take it to me!" ”

After taking the secret letter and looking at it, he saw that there was a layer of oiled paper outside, and Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but be stunned. It was easy to open it with great difficulty, but found that there was a thick layer of brown paper envelope inside, and at this moment, his brows wrinkled even deeper, and he picked up a paper cutter to open the envelope, and what he took out was not the letterhead he expected, but also a small envelope. At this moment, he finally got impatient, and he put down the paper cutter and said angrily: "This Ye Guang dares to entertain me!" ”

Xiao Jing instinctively felt that this set was a little strange, unlike what Ye Guang's cautious person could do. He didn't help to intercede, but bent down to help open the small envelope, and finally cut it again, only to see a neatly folded small square piece of paper inside. He glanced at Emperor Hongzhi, and when he saw that the Son of Heaven didn't look at it, he asked for his surname to help unfold it, but after a glance at the handwriting, he handed it to the emperor with surprise and joy.

"Your Majesty, it's the crown prince, it's His Royal Highness the prince!"

"What!"

Emperor Hongzhi snatched the piece of paper, and with a sweep of the not very proper handwriting, he recognized that it was indeed Zhu Houzhao. There are no more than twenty or thirty words on the note, all of which are in the vernacular-"Father, the son caught a big fish, and now he is going to trial with Ye Guang. ”

Caught a big fish? Did you go to trial with Ye Guang? What does that mean?

Rao is the son of heaven who has been the emperor of Hongzhi for more than ten years, not to mention that he has a lot of experience in poetry and articles, but at least he is at the upper middle level. After looking at it horizontally and vertically several times, he finally tasted a little taste, and suddenly looked at the eldest princess Renhe who was standing there with a blank face and asked: "Yuan Niang, first you said that the people from Fusi in Beizhen went to your house to arrest people, did they catch anyone?" ”

The eldest princess of Renhe only listened to Qi Jiliang's words, and did not know the specific situation, and after being stunned for a while, she hesitated and said: "Listening to Liang'er, it seems that he has arrested a person, or his honored guest." ”

"How many people did the North Town Fusi go?"

"This ......"

The eldest princess didn't know what the royal brother meant, and she really didn't know, so she suddenly made a difficulty. Seeing this scene, Emperor Hongzhi immediately decided to Li Rong and instructed: "You don't need to go to Beizhen Fusi, first go to the eldest princess's mansion to inquire about the matter, how many people did Beizhen Fusi go, who they were, who they were arrested, how they were arrested, and how they coerced the eldest princess's son, all of them will ask me clearly!" ”

"Brother Huang!"

Seeing Li Rong follow the order, the eldest princess Renhe suddenly became anxious. At this moment, Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand and said, "Imperial sister, it's not that I don't believe you, but the matter is very important, I have to ask clearly!" If they really trespass into your eldest princess's mansion, I will definitely give you justice! Okay, look at what you're crying about, come on, help the eldest princess go down and wash her face well, and take her to Kunning Palace to rest! ”

When the two little eunuchs outside came in and helped Ren and the eldest princess out, Queen Zhang, who had been holding back all the time, finally couldn't help it. She rushed to the emperor's side almost with an arrow step, grabbed the note that Emperor Hongzhi put on the table, and immediately changed her face when she read it from beginning to end, and immediately raised her head and said, "Your Majesty, what's going on?" ”

Unexpectedly, the queen was so quiet and moving, Emperor Hongzhi was caught off guard, and the words that had been dotted for a while suddenly came in handy, so he could only say haha: "Don't think so much about the queen, this is just a joke with us." This kid's surname is playful, and you don't know it......"

"The emperor, don't be sloppy with your concubines, if it weren't for a big deal, you would have pushed all the many servants in the East Palace outside to kneel?" The more Empress Zhang thought about it, the more she felt that she was too sloppy when she came in, and she was anxious and angry for a while, and she actually grabbed Emperor Hongzhi's sleeve, "What's wrong with Houzhao?" What happened to the concubine's son? Didn't he go to Wenhua Hall today to listen to the lecture, how could he go to Beizhen Fusi to try the case? Also What does this big fish mean? ”

I want to know what it means, and will I still worry about it?

Emperor Hongzhi was already full of sorrow, but he still had to fold his spirit and comforted: "Empress, where do you want to go!" Of course, Houzhao is good, otherwise how could he send such a letter? As for him sneaking out of the palace, it's not once or twice, it's a big deal, let's punish him severely at that time, so that we can also accept his heart......"

"Punishment and punishment, how can you do it with only punishment, he is still young!"

Seeing that Empress Zhang was really distracted by herself, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly echoed beside him, and took the opportunity to discuss the Godson Sutra with Empress Zhang. Being so attracted by him, Empress Zhang naturally talked about Zhu Houzhao's illness some time ago, and immediately complained: "Those ministers know how to give lectures, so why really think about him as a prince!" I got up early in the morning on a cold day to go to the Wenhua Palace, and I only rested for an hour or two at noon, and I had to continue to talk in the afternoon, how could he stand it at such a young age......

Xiao Jing, who was standing on the side, saw that the emperor was perfunctory to the queen, and at the same time made a gesture at himself without showing a trace, so he naturally quietly retreated. However, when he went out of the palace gate, he first ordered the people in the East Palace who were still kneeling outside to find a place to settle for the time being, and a Qianqing Palace promised to hesitate and said that he was afraid that the emperor would ask, and he immediately said impatiently: "Didn't you see the queen mother inside?" In case the mother retreats, wouldn't it be a good question to see this scene? Even the emperor is not good-looking. ”

A word for everyone to solve the trouble, he didn't stay long, straight out of the Qianqing Gate with his entourage, saw the two little eunuchs carry the stool and pestle over, in the early years he gave the inner city a stool and pestle, but he waved his hand and said: "Don't go back to the celebrant eunuch, go straight out of the noon gate, go to Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi!" ”

When Empress Zhang married Emperor Hongzhi, she was still the crown prince, and there was a Wan Guifei in the palace who pressed on everyone's heads, so the two could be said to be a couple in distress. But after the bitterness, Emperor Hongzhi still never added a harem, which is almost unique in ancient times, needless to say, the relationship between the husband and wife. At this time, in order to make his wife no longer pursue his son's affairs, Emperor Hongzhi didn't know how many coaxing methods he used, and even took great pains to recall the joys and hardships of the past. However, I don't know how long it took, as the light in the room gradually dimmed, Empress Zhang finally noticed that it was dark.

"Don't talk to me about him anymore, tell me where he's gone!"

Empress Zhang was in such a hurry, and immediately even called you and me out. Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Emperor Hongzhi let out a long sigh, and then said: "Houzhao has grown up, I heard that I heard bad things about your brother and brother in the palace a few days ago, and I don't know what clues I found, so I ran out of the palace in person." This kid is really not worrying. ”

After the initial anger, Empress Zhang was overjoyed in her heart, and her eyes were a little red. In order for her son not to be close to the two uncles, and even to herself gradually estranged, she didn't know how many methods she used, but it didn't work, but now her husband actually said that Zhu Houzhao ran out of the palace for the sake of the two uncles, which is simply God finally opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty, this is ...... Is this true? ”

"Of course it's true!"

Just when Emperor Hongzhi nodded calmly, there was a sudden shouting outside. Immediately after, a Qianqing palace agreed and rushed in.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned, and he has already entered the Xuanwu Gate at this time!"
