Look at the person carefully, but it is the eunuch who assisted Zou Jing in taking care of Zhu Yujian and his wife in the high wall, Wang Pin arranged for him to come in, but also to facilitate surveillance, and at the same time, he could report to him the dynamics of Zhu Yujian and his wife in the high wall in time.

The eunuch's eyes were wide open, and black blood flowed from his mouth and nose, apparently committing suicide by taking poison.

Before Wang Pin could ask, the leader of the guards on the side hurriedly explained. "Back to my father-in-law, when I just tied up these people, my subordinates had already searched their bodies strictly, and several of my subordinates had worked in Dongchang on errands, and they were very familiar with the practice of hiding drugs in their mouths.

While everyone was shocked, Wang Pin was like being struck by lightning. The guards were all confidants, and most of them had been trained in the factory guards, since they said that no abnormalities were found, it is certain that the eunuch did not hide drugs when these people were arrested.

That is to say, someone else quietly passed the poison to the eunuch while the Zeng clan caused chaos just now.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Pinzhou's body was like falling into an ice cellar, and the cold air instantly spread from the soles of his feet to his head, and even his hands in his sleeves couldn't help but tremble.

There were not many people present, except for their own personal guards, who were the personal guards of Zhu Ping'an and others, but they were all far away on the periphery, and when the Zeng clan broke out just now, the goal of these people was only to surround the Zeng family, and no one approached the few people who were tied up, at this point, Wang Pin was very confident in his eyesight.

Then, the only people who can get close to the eunuch are his own guards.

Wang Pin slowly turned his head and glanced at each of the guards one by one, trying to find some clues on their faces. But the results disappointed him.

Form shì so, now. Wang Pin is sure that the problem lies with his subordinates.

He who may be a man of his own hands. Except for his father-in-law Wang Chengen, who was far away in the capital, Wang Pin really couldn't think of a second person.

Zhu Yujian? No kidding! How could a vassal king, who was kept in captivity like a pig, have such a means?

Wang Pin suddenly felt that the world was spinning. In the past year, he has written dozens of letters to the capital, some of which are written to Wang Chengen, and more to his brother-in-law Huaide. Wang Chengen replied to the letter twice, both of which were ghostwritten by Huaide, but in the past two months, Huaide's reply has obviously decreased.

Could it be that you are implying something?

Could it be said. The stepfather has begun to distrust himself? Those dealings between himself and the East Palace were discovered by his old man? The father-in-law ordered himself to take care of Zhu Yujian and Zhu Ping'an, but why did he kill Zhu Yujian's young son? What kind of grievances do Zhu Yujian and Zhu Ping'an have with their father-in-law?

A series of questions hit Wang Pin's brain, and he felt that his head was about to explode!

The first to notice that something was wrong with Wang Pin was Zhu Ping'an, he came over with an arrow and held the crumbling Wang Pin, "Father-in-law, are you okay?" ”

Wang Pin, who was pale, reluctantly raised his hand and shook it, "It's okay." Our family is just a little unwell. ”

Lu Zhenfei also walked over, his face sinking like water, "I dared to poison and murder my relatives, but unfortunately the clue has been broken." After all, this is a matter of the clan, so my father-in-law should have an idea! ”

Wang Pin barely stood firm, "It's so far." There is no other good way, so it is up to our family to draw up the Taoist music. Report it to the palace! Let's see what the emperor, the celebrant and the Zongren Mansion mean! ”

Although Wang Pin was a little frightened, his brain turned fast. Until now. The suspicions in my heart cannot be confided to anyone in any case, and this matter cannot be related to my father-in-law. It seems that it is still necessary to take advantage of Shi Yingzhao, a dead person, the last time he abused his relatives, he had already been listed in Emperor Chongzhen, and this time it was necessary to plant it on Zhu Yuzhen's head, so that it was appropriate.

As for himself, he has to do his best to send a letter to Jingshi's father-in-law to clarify his intentions and resolve the misunderstanding between the two.

But is this really a misunderstanding? Even Wang Pin himself didn't believe it. Wang Chengen was unwilling to involve himself in the battle of the harem, and he was even more reluctant for Wang Pin to take refuge in the East Palace early in the morning. But there is no turning back from the bow, it is his father-in-law Wang Chengen who gives his life, and it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who can show his strengths and ambitions, and obtain glory and wealth.

I really have to make a choice between ...... two.

Alas, wait until the day when you have to choose, and then let's talk!

Wang Pin left gloomily, and the courtyard was also cleaned, and the black blood on the ground was washed clean by the guards with buckets of cold well water. The two maids and the cook shrunk together, still crying freely. Zou Jing trembled and comforted the three of them, and finally persuaded them, and then returned to their respective houses tremblingly.

Zhu Yujian comforted the Zeng family, then walked into the courtyard and gave a deep salute to Lu Zhenfei, "I am really sorry to alarm Lord Lu, the case will be investigated by the princess and them, Lord Lu still has to do official business, I won't bother anymore!" ”

Lu Zhenfei returned the salute and shook his head, "The prince is serious, this matter involves too much, and it is inconvenient for the lower official to interfere as the governor, so please forgive the prince." However, please rest assured that in the future, the lower officials will arrange for the housekeepers in the mansion to handle the food, clothing, and daily life of your mansion, and similar things will never happen again. ”

Zhu Yujian arched his hand gratefully, "There is Master Lao!" ”

Lu Zhenfei looked at Zhu Ping'an and Duan Xinian, "Everyone is here, and the prince has also left." Lu said bluntly. This time, there is one more thing to inform the prince, in a few days, the imperial court will have a holy decree to arrive in the central capital, and the official and peace may have to lead troops to help the Beijing division! ”

"Rush to the aid of the Jingshi!" Zhu Yujian and Duan Xinian's faces suddenly changed. They had also learned about the Tartars' entry into the Kou, but they didn't expect Lu Zhenfei and Zhu Ping'an to lead troops into Beijing.

"It has to be a last resort, this official was ordered to patrol the capital, and now the Beijing division is in danger, if the official sits idly by and ignores it, it is not for others to lead the troops. The Ping An Department is also the only elite division in the capital, and this time it is just the right time to show its talents! ”

Duan Xinian couldn't help but take two steps back, holding his breath and not saying a word. Fortunately, everyone knows his character of retreating in times of difficulty, but no one cares.

Zhu Yujian's expression gradually became solemn. Then he nodded slowly, "What the Lord said is very true. The imperial court raised troops for a thousand days, for this time. Adult loyalty. Zhu admired! ”

Zhu Yujian looked at Zhu Ping'an, "Da Lang, you can also relax, Zeng's was only in a hurry, so he mistakenly regarded you as the murderer of the child, and now that the murderer has committed suicide, she also knows that she is wrong to blame you, but it is just for the sake of face and inconvenience to come out." You must not take it to heart! ”

Zhu Ping'an bowed his hand, "Ping'an doesn't dare!" ”

Zhu Yujian walked up to him, looked up and down, and sighed: "Wu'er has finally grown up!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Zhenfei and Duan Xinian were stunned, this was the first time that Zhu Yujian admitted Zhu Ping'an's identity in front of others.

Zhu Yujian took Zhu Ping'an's right hand and gently handed it over to Lu Zhenfei's hand. "Seeing Mr. Bai, the dog will be entrusted to you, I hope you will take care of it!"

Lu Zhenfei, who had recovered from his shock, took a deep breath. smiled slightly, "Don't worry, the prince will never let him go on a business trip!" ”

Zhu Yujian smiled with relief, "You are not outsiders. Just stop playing pantomimes. The matter of peace should be told to Lord Duan in the happy year, right? ”

Duan Xinian's face turned red and he knelt straight in front of Zhu Yujian. "Happy New Year, please punish the prince!"

Zhu Yujian supported him with both hands, "What to punish." If it weren't for you, would my vein be where it is today? Peace is under your watch. Finally grown up, it's too late for me to thank you, how can I be punished! ”

Zhu Yujian sighed: "I don't ask for much in this life, but I ask to report to the king and protect Li Shu." was just killed by a traitor, and now he only ends up imprisoned by a high wall. Fortunately, my son has grown up and can replace me to serve the imperial court. ”

Zhu Ping'an nodded yes. His eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, although he didn't get along much with Zhu Yujian, he also knew that he only felt a trace of warmth between father and son today, but it made Zhu Ping'an recall all kinds of things in his previous life at once, and he almost wanted to cry.

Lu Zhenfei is not the kind of scholar who is not stubborn, so naturally he has no objection to Zhu Yujian's words.

It was Zhu Yujian, who suddenly remembered an old incident, and couldn't help but be angry. "I heard that last year, that Chen Zizhuang once passed through Zhongdu, Lord Lu and Ping'an, did you still meet him?"

Lu Zhenfei and Zhu Ping'an nodded in surprise.

"This rotten Confucian, it is useless to keep it, only to harm the court, and it is really retribution to be imprisoned!" Zhu Yujian was furious, obviously still haunted by the past. "Is there no good person among the children of my clan? Now he still has the face to deceive the world and open a academy! ”

Zhu Ping'an only understood why Zhu Yujian was angry at this time. It was still a grudge from Chongzhen's five years. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen was anxious to recruit talents, so he issued an edict to quote the ancestral teachings: "Among the princes and grandsons of the county, there are civil and military talents, and those who can take on great responsibilities can be awarded official positions after the examination and inspection of the imperial court, and they can be promoted as usual." ”

As soon as this order was issued, it caused a collective backlash from civilian officials. In particular, Chen Zizhuang put forward three "not necessarily" reasons and five "unfeasible" truths for this, and his words were fierce. He believed: "The reassignment of the sect rank is suitable for opening the door to fluke." Rules, Rules, Governance. ”

Emperor Chongzhen was furious when he saw it, and dismissed him from his post on the grounds of "frustration and proximity", awarded him a court staff, and sent him to prison.

After that, fortunately, the civil and military forces and the queen mother interceded and survived death.

The reason for this is that the impeachment of Chen Zizhuang presented by Zhu Yujian, who was still the king of Tang at that time, played a considerable role.

Zhu Ping'an didn't expect that Zhu Yujian still hated Chen Zizhuang like this, thinking about the pig iron that Chen Zizhuang secretly supplied to himself, Zhu Ping'an had a chill for no reason, if that old guy knew that he was Zhu Yujian's son, then the result would be lively!

finally persuaded Zhu Yujian, and Lu Zhenfei, Zhu Ping'an, Duan Xinian and other three people left from the forbidden wall.

At noon, the big silk on the city wall in the distance fluttered with the wind, and the word "Ming" was as bright as the fire, and the dragon meandered upward, and it was like flying up for nine days.

Lu Zhenfei put his hands behind his back and looked at it for a long time. Suddenly, he spoke, "Zhu Ping'an listens to orders!" ”

"In!"

"After the imperial edict arrives, this official will give you another ten days to rectify the soldiers and horses, and after ten days, set off from the school field to help the Beijing Division!" (To be continued......)
