Soon the New Year is coming, and every household in the capital is happily preparing.

The same is true of the True King's Mansion. The Zhumen compound has already been repainted, and all the courtyards in the house have been cleaned.

Although because of the matter of the eldest prince Zhu Zimo, the atmosphere of the entire palace is sluggish.

Everyone in the palace has been going in and out as low as possible lately. But the preparations for the New Year have not been left behind.

After all, the past is gone, and there is still hope for the new year.

The old lady Du lived in the small Buddha hall of Qingsong Courtyard, eating fasting and reciting Buddha every day, begging for a good weather in the new year.

After receiving the letter from his son that he had arrived safely, Wang reluctantly cheered up and walked out of the house to continue to help the old lady manage the chores of the palace.

Because of her daughter's reminder, Cao found out about her husband's private house outside and had a falling out with Zhu Yuanchuan.

The big room is peaceful, and the second room is discordant.

The subordinates in the palace are rumoring that the real palace must have committed Tai Sui this year, so it will be unfavorable.

In Wentao Garden, there are no chickens and eggs like other places.

At this moment, Song Yi and Xiaobao were busy arranging Wentao Garden.

Although it is a big and a small two people working, one is babbling, screaming faster than working, and the other has small arms and legs, and is not as tall as a bench.

The two of them seem to be busy, but they are also annoying everywhere and doing their best.

It's just that Song Yi slowly returned to normal. It's no longer like the other day, laughing is worse than crying.

Now she has figured it out, "the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth", "the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge".

Instead of worrying about the sky, it is better to live a good life. When it's really difficult, I have a headache again.

Xiaobao looks like a day at a time, and it seems that he has risen a little taller. But as in the past, he has been following Song Yi. Live like a fart.

One big and one small, all of them have no realization.

It is said that it is to arrange the yard, hang lanterns, and paste spring couplets.

But no one dared to ask the two of them to help. And the two of them were still playing happily, and they couldn't stop at all.

Gui's mother watched her grandson have fun, and Song Yi also regained her former cheerfulness.

I was also very happy. She didn't stop the two, looked at it for a while, then said a few words, and continued to busy herself.

In the main house, Zhu Xi listened to the report of his subordinates.

"The crown prince and the second prince are already like fire and water. The queen and the imperial concubine also fought to the death in the palace. The ministers of the DPRK and China all have the object of support, and they are fighting all day long in the court."

Jiang Geng reported the information he had received recently, but he didn't hear his master's inquiry, so he secretly raised his head to look at his master.

And the situation that caught his eyes, Jiang Geng was very surprised.

The master seems to be in a daze, and he is laughing?

Jiang Geng suppressed the doubts in his heart and continued, "There is news from the frontier, and there seems to be something strange on the grassland. Years ago, he and Nuhachi unified the various tribes of the steppe, and now they are integrating their forces. There are already spies infiltrating the border cities."

Jiang Geng stopped and continued to look at his master.

This time, Zhu Xi reacted and "continued"

Jiang Geng didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to continue to report the situation.

"Zhu Yuanchuan's outer residence in the capital, I don't know how the Cao family knew. Yesterday, the Cao family led people to raid the courtyard and drove out the second master's concubine. After the second master found out, he had a big fight with the Cao family, and threatened to move out and live with the concubine."

Jiang Geng didn't know why the master would let them spy on Zhu Yuanchuan, but they didn't dare to have doubts, they just did what the master explained.

But, again, there was no sound.

This time, Jiang Geng also noticed the strange look of Xiao Hei on the side.

Xiao Hei had a surprised expression. knows that although the master is here, his heart has long been taken away by a woman.

However, Jiang Geng is not aware of this. He was always away, except when summoned by his master, he usually used flying pigeons to pass on his books.

When they met again, he always had a feeling that the master didn't seem to be as focused as he was.

This kind of change is something he can perceive.

The voice in the room was gone, and Zhu Xi, who had been thinking about flying out, also found out.

So, he looked at Jiang Geng and said, "Oh? He pities the jade. However, our people should not be withdrawn, and continue to stare at Zhu Yuanchuan."

"Lord Wang, what's wrong with this Zhu Yuanchuan? These days, his subordinates sent people to follow him all day long, and they didn't find anything wrong? ”

Jiang Geng voiced his doubts.

"Are you doubting the King's decision?" Zhu Xi raised his eyebrows coldly, not angry and arrogant.

Jiang Geng saw it and immediately replied, "My subordinates don't dare"

Zhu Xi retracted his gaze and was not really angry, "Back then, Zhu Yuanchuan abandoned his family and business and went to Jiangnan to start a business alone. In just a few years, he went smoothly and became the richest man in Jiangnan. Isn't that doubtful? If no one helped him, how could he have accumulated so much wealth in such a short time? ”

"What does the prince mean? He has already taken refuge in the crown prince or the second prince? When Jiang Geng heard this, he guessed some possibilities.

"No matter how many secrets this king has, even if he digs three feet into the ground, he will dig them out for this king"

"The subordinates understand. After his subordinates went back, they asked people to re-investigate Zhu Yuanchuan and find out all his whereabouts in Jiangnan over the years."

Jiang Geng can understand it at one point, and he can't wait to go back immediately and let people investigate.

Zhu Xi knew the character of his subordinate, so he didn't stop him and let him leave.

Yin Xiaohei on the side waited for Jiang Geng to leave, and then said, "Master, will the second master really be the prince's person?" Shall we cut the grass and root out this hidden danger?"

Xiao Hei said, the murderous aura in his eyes flashed.

Don't look at him arguing with Song Yi all day long, but in fact, he is also a master, and he also has a lot of life lawsuits in his hands.

Zhu Xi didn't agree with Xiao Hei's idea: "Don't worry. Now that Zhu Yuanchuan has taken refuge in the prince, I want to see what the prince wants this chess piece to do? ”

"Master, because of Zhu Zimo's matter a few years ago, we have already attacked Zhu Yuanshan. He is the man of the second prince. If it is confirmed that Zhu Yuanchuan is the prince's person, then should we do it as soon as possible? ”

"Wouldn't it be better for their brothers to eat dogs? We just need to remain neutral. ”

Zhu Xi said.

Xiao Hei heard what his master said, and he didn't speak.

"Go and call Song Yi in"

Zhu Xi commanded, and Xiao Hei went out and called Song Yi in.

Song Yi put down the paste and couplets in his hand, and ran into the house.

Song Yi didn't know what the prince told her to do.

Zhu Xi saw her come in and said, "The Cao family took someone to the second master's mansion yesterday and made a big fuss. She lives in an inner house, how does she know that the second master has an outer house in the capital? Who revealed the news? ”

As soon as Song Yi heard it, he knew that the matter was exposed, and he didn't dare to hide it, and said, "It was the slave who told the fourth lady the news."

"You're being honest. Where did you find out about this? ”

"The slave heard it outside the study that day"

"Eavesdropping is a big sin. Do you really think that this king will not punish you? ”

"The slave didn't dare. Even if the prince wants to kill or chop, the slave and maid will not regret it. The slave is just collecting some interest first! ”

Zhu Xi looked at Song Yi with a calm face, and was very sure that what she said was from the bottom of her heart.

It turned out that after Song Yi met the second master that day, he always felt that he was very familiar. Later, I remembered that Zhu Yuanchuan was very consistent with the physical characteristics of the mysterious man in the backyard of the palace that day.

So, she told the prince about her guess.

In the end, it was really investigated, and it turned out that Zhu Yuanchuan did not have no desire for power as he seemed.

After Song Yi knew Zhu Yuanchuan's face, he always wanted to avenge the "ugly girl".

That day, after she overheard the news of Zhu Yuanchuan's foreign house outside the study, she secretly leaked the news to Zhu Shanlei.

This is the story of yesterday's Cao family's trouble.
