"Shi Yingzhao!" Zhu Yujian and Zeng exclaimed at the same time.

Zhu Ping'an and Cao Wuxian's faces also changed. Could it be that the news leaked and entered the forbidden wall to contact the crime, which is a real capital crime. Shi Yingzhao will definitely not give up here. Listening to the sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, it is impossible to escape again, can you only sit and wait?

Everyone turned their eyes to Zhu Yujian, who was sitting on the bed. Zhu Yujian sighed, stood up with Zeng's support, and instructed Zou Jing, "Fortune and misfortune have their own days, go open the door!" ”

Zou Jing looked at Zhu Ping'an with hesitant eyes again, and Cao Wuxian stopped talking.

Although Zhu Ping'an was also a little flustered at this time, he was a human being in two lives, and the city government was already very deep. The information of the officials of the three divisions of the Fengyang military, government and civilian affairs and the grievances and grievances of the top magnates of the Chongzhen Dynasty flashed in their minds like a marquee, and they had a general countermeasure in a moment. Zhu Ping'an took a deep breath and turned to Zou Jing, "Grandpa Zou, open the door!" ”

The gate slammed open, and more than a dozen soap-clothed men rushed into the courtyard surrounded by a eunuch in a crimson robe. The eunuch is about forty years old, and his hooked nose is particularly eye-catching. Behind him, two strong men pushed a sturdy high-walled guard Xiaoqi to the ground, who was the one who had just received Zhu Ping'an into the high wall.

Zhu Yujian took Zeng's arm and walked down the steps, and arched his hand towards the eunuch, "Grandpa Shi......!" ”

Shi Yingzhao, the eunuch guarding the Fengyang Imperial Mausoleum, waved his hand and interrupted Zhu Yujian's words, "Zhu Yujian, a common man, Zhu Ping'an, a hundred households guarding the high wall, are you two guilty?" ”

Zhu Yujian looked at Zeng, and a trace of despair flashed in the eyes of both of them at the same time. The two hesitated for a moment, and were about to kneel.

Zhu Ping'an stepped forward a few steps at this time, blocking in front of Zhu Yujian and his wife, although he was reluctant in his heart, he still rushed to turn over and kneel in front of Zhu Yujian and his wife, "Zhu Ping'an, who guards hundreds of households on the high wall, sees Shi Gonggong, I don't know what the crime Shi Gonggong said?" ”

Shi Yingzhao sneered, "Without permission, entering the high wall privately, and meeting with the Sin Sect, this is a capital crime!" ”

When Cao Wuxian, who was behind Zhu Ping'an, heard this, he was about to burst out immediately, but was stopped by Zhu Ping'an. Seeing the situation, several soap-clothed men around took their blades out of their scabbards and guarded them in front of Shi Yingzhao.

Shi Yingzhao waved his hand slightly, and the man bowed and retreated. Shi Yingzhao immediately smiled, "What are you doing, do you want to kill our family on the spot, kill people?" ”

Zhu Ping'an slowly stood up, pulled out the short knife and iron claws on his body and threw them on the ground, "My father-in-law laughed, there are only a few hundred households in one district, how dare I offend my father-in-law." Since I was bumped into by my father-in-law today, I also ask my father-in-law to give me the next chance, and I have a few words for the next gift. ”

Shi Yingzhao smiled and nodded, "In the face of danger, the Tang Wangfu is really a good house slave!" Well, just listen to what you have to say! ”

Zhu Ping'an still took two steps forward, and suddenly two men stepped forward, one left and one right, protecting Shi Yingzhao.

Zhu Ping'an said loudly: "Father-in-law, His Royal Highness the Tang King of my family ......!" Shi Yingzhao immediately interrupted Zhu Ping'an's words, "It's Tang Shu, and the current Tang King is His Royal Highness Zhu Yujiao!" ”

Zhu Ping'an nodded yes, "Yes, yes, it's Tang Shu." It has been a year since the Tang Shu people entered the forbidden high wall last year. Over the past year, I don't know why I offended my father-in-law, two meals a day are often missing, and even daily supplies are intermittent. Recently, I heard that my father-in-law had imposed a lock on the Tang Shu people. In the next place, he was a slave in the Tang Dynasty's mansion, and he was worried that the master's family had entered the high wall at night, and the blame was all in the next body. It's just that I ask my father-in-law to forgive me for my ignorance, I don't know where the Tang Shu people treated my father-in-law slowly, and I ask my father-in-law to make it clear, I will wait for the next person to comfort the Tang Shu people and eliminate this misunderstanding! ”

Shi Yingzhao snorted coldly, "What does this have to do with our family." Emperor Taizu set up a high wall in the central capital to punish the sinful sect, the original intention was to make him close to the foundation of the ancestors, think about the difficulties of starting a business, or know the province to reform. Zhu Yujian, a native of Tang Shu, did not get an edict to lead troops into Beijing privately, which was a real punishment for the three legal divisions of the ceremonial supervisor, the ministers and the Zongren Mansion. Our family has the responsibility of guarding the imperial tomb, and we have the heavy responsibility of supervising the criminal sect, so naturally we dare not slack off, so why did we cut off the daily supply. As for the punishment of locks, it has been practiced since Emperor Taizu, and the punishment of the guilty sect can sharpen their minds and learn from the pain, so that they can be taught and changed, and there may be a chance of forgiveness in the future. You are a small hundred, where can you experience such a deep meaning! ”

"I see!" Zhu Ping'an looked suddenly enlightened, and bowed to Shi Yingzhao again and again. But as soon as the conversation changed, the tone suddenly became aggressive.

"It's just that, if I remember correctly, since the fifteenth year of Jiajing, the imperial court has issued an order to abolish the punishment of one qiē within the high walls, and specially stated that the daily supply of the criminal sect, clothing, food, and medicine should not be wasted, and the descendants of the royal family must not be allowed to have any mistakes within the high walls. Speaking of which, this is also Jiajingye's compassion and love! After speaking, Zhu Ping'an was amazed.

Zhu Yujian and Zeng's four hands were clasped and looked at each other, and they both found the strange look in each other's eyes. How did the originally wooden and stupid eldest son suddenly become today's sharp and unfazed?

Shi Yingzhao was immediately stunned, he didn't expect Zhu Ping'an to know so much about hundreds of households. After saying this, I couldn't think of how to deal with it for a while. His face sank, and he was about to have a seizure on the spot.

But Zhu Ping'an will definitely not give him this opportunity. The sea was up and down, Zhu Ping'an knew the key to beating the side drum and taking advantage of the situation to suppress people, so he immediately changed to a smile again, and his tone eased.

"My father-in-law's hard work is really understood. It's just that once these things get out, my father-in-law's face is always not very good-looking. I heard that although Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Xuanda, had led the army to leave Fengyang, the imperial court sent Lu Zhenfei to patrol Zhongdu, and Lord Lu was known as a direct name, father-in-law, please think about it, if these things reach his ears, ......! ”

Zhu Ping'an peeked at Shi Yingzhao's reaction, and saw that his face was becoming more and more uneasy, so he took the opportunity to add another handful of firewood.

"I also heard that the eunuch Lu Jiude and his father-in-law in Fengyang Town came from the palace together, although Fengyang is the central capital, it is the place where the foundation of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty is located, but the fire of the thieves has made Fengyang what it is today, and the former Emperor Taizu enriched Fengyang with the world's riches, and now there is not much left."

Shi Yingzhao's eyes were staring at Zhu Ping'an tightly, his fists couldn't help clenching, and he could even hear the sound of "click, click, click" from his finger bones. "What the hell do you want to say, don't go around in circles!"

"Yes, yes!" Zhu Ping'an's smile was even brighter, "Then open the skylight and say something bright." Father-in-law Lu Jiude and you are both useful characters in the palace, since you came to Fengyang, you want to do something and go back to the palace in a beautiful way, so that you can easily get a position as a celebrant and eunuch. In the next is for the sake of the father-in-law, Fengyang and the affairs of the imperial mausoleum, a qiē to stabilize the dìng first, in case something happens, in the next is just a mustard-like storage zài, just delay the future of the father-in-law, then it is not good! ”

"You're not afraid that our family will cut the grass and eradicate it now!" Shi Yingzhao's face swelled with a thick blood, red and glamour.

As soon as the man next to him flashed his blade, he was about to slash at Zhu Ping'an. Zhu Ping'an raised his head, but straightened his body even straighter. Hearing only two "booms", the two men on the left and right showed blood marks on their mouths, and the blades in their hands had fallen to the ground, and the two of them were dumbfounded, and they didn't even see who made a move.

Cao Wuxian, who was on the side, easily patted the dust on his hands and retreated behind Zhu Ping'an. Shi Yingzhao's subordinates looked at each other, with fear in their eyes, and no one dared to act rashly.

"So that my father-in-law knows that he has always liked to speculate on people's hearts and is not hesitant to plan for the worst, so he has already arranged manpower when he comes, if something happens to the people of Tang Shu in Xia, someone will inevitably make a big fuss about it, and it may even be to heaven!" Zhu Ping'an said with a smile.

Shi Yingzhao's face turned from red to white in an instant, and even his breath became rapid, he barely suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and his slightly hideous face gradually eased, and then he laughed, but his voice was as sharp as a night owl.

"Hahaha, it's really a hero out of a boy! I didn't expect Tang Wangfu to be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the little two offspring have such ability, one is strategic, the other is skilled, it seems that our family can't accept the old anymore! ”

Zhu Ping'an still had a smile on his face, and arched his hand towards Shi Yingzhao, "The father-in-law is serious, the two brothers don't read much, but they are just subordinates in the palace, except for a heart of protection and loyalty, please don't be surprised!" This ......".

As he spoke, Zhu Ping'an began to touch in his arms and body, as if he was looking for something, and after finding nothing, he began to search Cao Wuxian's body.

"Where's that? Hurry up and take it out! Zhu Ping'an was a little moved.

Shi Yingzhao and his subordinates on the side hurriedly retreated a few steps back as if they were facing a great enemy.

Cao Wuwu's reluctance, "The world ......!" ”

Zhu Ping'an was stunned.

Cao Wuxian hurriedly changed his words: "Young master, that's ......!" ”

"But it's a fart, take it out!"

Cao Wuxian slowly took out something from the cloth socks on his feet, and reluctantly stuffed it into Zhu Ping'an's hand.

Zhu Ping'an smiled and walked to the opposite side of Shi Yingzhao with that kind of thing, "This is a little bit of my brother's heart, and I ask my father-in-law to accept it!" It can be regarded as thanking my father-in-law for taking care of Tang Shuren! ”

Shi Yingzhao snorted from his nose, although these two people couldn't figure out the depths, they finally understood the sophistication of human feelings. But a sour smell wafted over with the wind, which made Shi Yingzhao almost retch.

Shi Yingzhao glanced at a Tsing Yi eunuch beside him, and the Tsing Yi eunuch pinched his nose and took the thing in Zhu Ping'an's hand, opened it carefully, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Shi Yingzhao also peeked at it, and the look on his face relaxed.

"What does my father-in-law mean ......?" Zhu Ping'an asked in a low voice.

Shi Yingzhao watched the eunuch in Tsing Yi stuff the silver ticket in his palm into his arms, and straightened his waist again, "Our family is just here to inspect the high wall tonight, nothing has happened, the night is late, we have to run an errand tomorrow, let's rest early!" ”

Zhu Ping'an smiled and bowed, "Congratulations to Gonggong Shi!" ”
