"Is Brother Shao really here to catch the fugitives?" Wu Jin looked at Shao Jingwen with a smile and asked.

Shao Jingwen saw that there was no panic in Wujin's eyes, as if everything was confident, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, is it going to be empty again this time?

He tried to keep himself calm and asked, "Do you think I have other purposes?" ”

Wu Jin didn't answer immediately, he was silent, Shao Jingwen was also silent, in fact, both sides knew it, and after a while, Shao Jingwen smiled: "Don't worry!" Uncle Shen promised me that he would guarantee your safety. ”

Wu Jin nodded, "Thank you, Brother Shao!" ”

After a pause, he said lightly: "If you are here for the Chen brothers, then you will be disappointed, they have already returned to Donghai County." ”

The smile on Shao Jingwen's face froze, and gradually, when the condensation solidified, it turned into a bitter smile, and he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Am I empty again?" ”

"Brother Chen's departure is just a coincidence, I really didn't expect you to come so quickly, to be honest, I admire Uncle Shen's methods, and I'm glad that I didn't make enemies of him."

Shao Jingwen's face swelled with irrepressible disappointment, although he had told Uncle Shen Guo in advance that he might fail, but if he really failed, the frustration in his heart made it difficult for him to accept.

He suddenly pulled out his knife and slashed at a chair until it was shattered, and then he glared at Wu Jin, "Why do you want me to fail repeatedly? ”

Wu Jin looked at him calmly and said, "If someone comes to search for Brother Shao today, I will also let them fail." ”

Shao Jingwen was stunned, the anger in his eyes gradually subsided a little, and he also realized that he had lost his temper, his relationship with Wujin was very complicated, he was both an opponent, a friend, an enemy, and a little sympathetic.

Sometimes he wanted to slaughter Wu Jin with a knife, and sometimes he wanted to invite Wu Jin to drink a glass of wine, this kind of Mao Dun mentality made him uncomfortable for a while.

After another moment, Shao Jingwen's heart finally calmed down, and he sighed, "I hope I don't have anything to do with you next time?" ”

Wu Jin said to him sincerely: "Brother Shao, although you want to arrest my friend, I still want to say that the so-called plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky, you have done your best, but God does not help you, and I am the same, I also hope that next time I will not be your enemy!" ”

At this time, the two lieutenants rushed back to report: "General Hui, no anomalous people have been found." ”

Shao Jingwen sighed, his last glimmer of hope was also shattered, and he had no choice but to order, "Tell the brothers to return to the team!" ”

A group of soldiers quickly withdrew from the Lanling County Palace, and Wu Jin kept sending them out of the mansion, and he smiled at Shao Jingwen and said: "Brother Shao, I give you a piece of advice, I hope Luo Lin'er will not be caught near the Lanling County Palace, this will anger the old prince and cause you unnecessary trouble,"

Shao Jingwen smiled bitterly and arched his hand, "Thank you!" ”

He turned around and left, and less than a quarter of an hour after Shao Jingwen left, news came from the Nanhai County Palace, and Luo Lin'er's whereabouts were found near the Nanhai County Palace, and he was shot because he refused to surrender.

A stormy case of the capture of a fugitive came to an end, and the embroidered guards began to line up and leave the Guiyi Workshop, which they had been tossing for nearly an hour.

On the steps of the Lanling County Palace, Wu Jin was in the night, in a dark place without lights. He watched the group of wolf-like embroidered guards leave, and his heart finally relaxed.

He took out the gold medal given to him by the prince, and had a strange feeling in his heart, although the prince tried to woo him again and again, and Uncle Shen Guo dealt with him again and again, he felt that it seemed that Uncle Shen Guo was more reliable than the prince.

At least Uncle Shen is the real opponent, and the crown prince is a poisonous snake with a smiling face.

But in any case, the clouds above his head temporarily dissipated, and the struggle of nearly a month or so subsided, and he could finally enjoy the bright autumn sunshine.

．．．．．．．． In the palace, two eunuchs led the king of Lanling County into the inner palace, in the side hall, Emperor Xuande of Daning was pacing back and forth, he looked a little tired, it was now the third watch, it seems that he doesn't want to sleep again tonight.

He heard footsteps, and when he turned around, he saw Huangfu Jiang walking in with heavy steps, and his frowning brow from exhaustion relaxed.

"Uncle Huang, do you have something to do with me so late?"

In the imperial court, Huangfu Jiang's official worships Taiwei and is one of the three elders of the imperial court, but in the royal family genealogy, Huangfu Jiang's father Liang Wang is the uncle of the first emperor, so Huangfu Jiang is also the uncle of Huangfu Xuande, although he is not his uncle, but he is also a descendant of the royal family.

What's more, the 200,000 army of Helong is actually still in the hands of the Liangwang family, Zhang Chongjun is the son-in-law of Huangfujiang, and the second person in Helong Jiedu is Huangfujiang's son Huangfuzhuo, the governor of Xiliangdu, and the rest of the important generals of the Helong army are basically promoted by Huangfujiang.

It is precisely because of this that Huangfu Xuande attaches great importance to and respects Huangfu Jiang, and is willing to meet him at the third watch.

Since the emperor called himself the imperial uncle, not the imperial lieutenant, the emperor Fujiang did not salute his ministers, but nodded casually like an uncle to his nephew, "Your Majesty, I have an important matter to discuss with you. ”

The tone is not as respectful as that of his subordinates, but more like an elder's exhortation to a junior.

In fact, Huangfu Xuande just casually called him Uncle Huang, in his opinion, calling Uncle Huang is more cordial than calling Taiwei, and it can shorten the distance between them, he thought that Uncle Huang was going to complain to him about the search of the house, and he was also ready to explain to Uncle Huang.

Unexpectedly, the imperial uncle used the identity of an uncle to talk to him, and the imperial uncle Xuande immediately realized that the imperial uncle did not want to sue, but really wanted to talk about a family matter.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Xuande's expression also relaxed, and he waved his hand, "Uncle Huang, sit down and say!" ”

The uncle and nephew sat down separately like the host and guest, the two palace maids served the soup tea, Huangfu Xuande picked up the teacup, glanced at Huangfu Jiang, and saw that he was a little worried, so he smiled and said: "If there is something about the emperor's uncle, just say it bluntly, there should be nothing unspeakable between our uncle and nephew." ”

"Hey! Eighteen years of hiding a secret made my heart as heavy as iron. ”

Emperor Fu Jiang let out a long sigh and said slowly: "Your Majesty still remembers my eldest son Huang Fu Hong when he became the governor of the Chuzhou Navy Nineteen years ago? ”

Huangfu Xuande was stunned. Huangfu Hong, the eldest son of Huangfu Jiang, has been sick and died for many years, why did he suddenly mention this matter, he thought about it and said with a smile: "I still have a little impression, it seems that he has no heirs after his death!" ”

Huang Fuhong died of illness a few years ago, because he had no heirs, according to the practice of the royal family, the eldest son died without an heir, and he must be given a step-heir to inherit his fireworks, but at that time, Huangfujiang resolutely opposed giving the eldest son a step-son, and even did not hesitate to confront most of the royal family.

This matter was very serious at the time, and in the end, it was over, which impressed Huangfu Xuande deeply, so when it came to Huangfuhong, what he thought of was this matter, at least what Huangfuhong served as the governor of the Chuzhou Navy, he had long forgotten about it.

"Your Majesty knows why I strongly objected to giving Hong'er a step-heir back then?"

"Why?"

Although many years have passed since this case, Huangfu Xuande is still very interested in revisiting this matter, why did Huangfu Jiang strongly oppose the succession of his eldest son? He straightened up all of a sudden, and looked at Huangfu Jiang with interest.

"Because..... Hong'er herself has.... Son. ”

Huangfu Xuande was stunned, isn't Huangfu Hong a queen? Why do you have a son again, what's going on?

Huangfu Jiang sighed, "Because this kid can't see the sun, he's ..... Hong'er was born to a wife who was not born. ”

"I see!"

Huangfu Xuande nodded, he reacted, that is, Huangfu Hong has an illegitimate child, no wonder Huangfu Jiang refused to give his eldest son a successor, it turned out that Huang Fuhong had a son, but why did Huangfu Jiang tell himself about it, Huangfu Xuande's mind turned, and he suddenly laughed, "Then congratulations to Uncle Huang." ”

Huangfu Xuande completely understands that Huangfu Jiang has one of the biggest problems, that is, the heirs are thin, he has two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Huangfu Hong died of illness a few years ago, leaving no descendants, and the second son Huangfu Zhuo Although he has a son, this son has been spoiled by Huangfu Zhuo since he was a child, his surname is irritable, his mind is stupid, and his private life is extravagant and ambitious, Huangfu Jiang dislikes it very much, and has not recognized this grandson as the heir of King Liang.

Huangfu Xuande suddenly realized that Huangfu Jiang's real purpose of wanting to return Huangfu Hong's illegitimate son to the sect was to make this child the heir of King Liang.

He pondered for a moment, and then said, "Uncle Huang can tell me in detail about this child." ”

"As I said just now, Hong'er served as the governor of the Chuzhou Navy nineteen years ago, and the story starts here.......

Huangfu Jiang told Huangfu Xuande the story of his eldest son's personal friendship with the Shen family in detail, and finally took out Wujin's identity certificate and the letter that his son wrote to himself, and sighed: "I was very angry about this incident back then, and I have always resolutely refused to recognize this child, but I am more than seventy years old, and I have a few years to live, so I began to realize the importance of the heir, and I was also to gamble at that time, but at this age, what is the point of being angry?" So I want to recognize this child as an ancestor, he is the only grandson of my Huangfu Xinjiang. ”

"His name is Huangfu Wujin, and he was adopted by the Donghai Huangfu clan, right?" Huangfu Xuande looked at the document carefully again and asked.

"Exactly!"

Huangfu Xuande paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, he knew very well what Huangfu Jiang was looking for him to do? If it is just to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, he doesn't need to look for himself, as long as Zongzheng Temple confirms the identity of the child, he will naturally be added to the royal family, and it has nothing to do with him.

In fact, when Huangfujiang's father Lao Liangwang died, according to the promise of the first emperor, Huangfujiang should inherit the title of Liangwang, but due to the opposition of other royal families, the prince died, and the son should be crowned the heir king or the county king, so Huangfujiang was not able to succeed to the throne of Liangwang, in this matter he broke his promise, and he has been sorry for Huangfujiang.

Since Huangfu Jiang came to him so late and specially raised this matter, he couldn't help but give this face, he looked at the yellowed birth certificate, and said with a smile: "What does Uncle Huang think?" Tell me about it. ”

He wanted Huangfu Jiang to make a request, as long as it was not too much, he could agree.

What Huangfu Jiang wants today is a title, which is very important like their future cause, he must give Wujin a high starting point in order for him to have appeal.

"Your Majesty, I owe this boy so much, and I hope he will inherit my title."

"Do you want me to give him a knight?" Huangfu Xuande was taken aback, he couldn't do this, even Huangfu Jiang's son Huangfu Zhuo was just a prince, how could he give an eighteen-year-old child a prince.

"Your Majesty, I know that it is difficult for the county king, and I hope that Your Majesty will let him inherit his father's title first."

When Huang Fu Hong was alive, he was named the Duke of Liangguo, Huang Fu Xuande's mind turned a few times, and he suddenly thought of a knot that had plagued him for many years, and the appearance of Huang Fu Jiang's grandson may be an opportunity to untie his heart knot.

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, and his tone became extremely sincere, "I didn't fulfill my promise to you back then, so make it up to this kid!" I let him succeed his father, the Duke of Liangguo. ”
