The person who came was Liu Jin, who went to Lu Mansion with Zhu Houzhao a few days ago.

"Lord Cao, after the Queen Mother was kidnapped by gangsters, the emperor was very worried, and specially invited you to discuss the rescue of the Queen Mother." Liu Jin first saluted Cao Zhengchun, and then said respectfully, even if he was the emperor's confidant, he was cautious about Cao Zhengchun.

Liu Jin came to announce the oracle, but Cao Zhengchun did not kneel, and said directly: "The governor knows, so he will leave for the palace." ”

"Then our family will go first." Liu Jin saluted again, and then retreated respectfully.

"What do you think?" Cao Zhengchun asked Chen Hao.

Chen Hao said: "I think we should leave for the palace immediately, so as not to slander the villain, blind the emperor, and separate the relationship between the emperor and the overseer." ”

Cao Zhengchun glanced sideways slightly, looked at the palace not far away with a complicated expression, and said, "Oh! You continue. ”

Chen Hao said again: "Imagine the overseer, who is most responsible for the abduction of this queen mother?" ”

Cao Zhengchun sighed and said: "All the troops in the palace are under the control of the governor, and the queen mother is lost, of course the governor is in charge!" ”

Chen Hao said: "The overseer's defense is unfavorable, this is a handle in itself, if there is another villain who slanders and says that the overseer has kidnapped the queen mother, then the matter will be big!" ”

"Walk into the palace and face the saint." Cao Zhengchun has never been an indecisive person, he tapped the table lightly, and said, "Lu Yan followed me into the palace, and Lu Chuan stayed in the East Factory." ”

After that, he waved his sleeves and walked out of the door, to be honest, Chen Hao really admired Cao Zhengchun a little, he was bold in doing things, and he knew how to win people's hearts, if it weren't for Zhu's ignorance of his skills, he would really have been able to achieve a generation of masters.

"Brother, what should I do?" Seeing that Chen Hao was going to follow Cao Zhengchun into the palace, she also wanted to go.

Chen Hao smiled at her and said, "You go home first, and then I'll teach you a when I'm free." ”

"Hmm!" Lu Hongying agreed.

Lu Chuan gave Chen Hao a look and said, "Assist the factory well." ”

"Yes Father!" Chen Hao nodded and walked out of the conference hall behind Cao Zhengchun.

Dongchang is very close to the palace, and the two of them walked to the palace and stood outside the Qianqing Palace waiting for Zhu Houzhao's reception.

Qianqing Palace is the emperor's dormitory, the emperor lives here, usually also deals with daily government affairs here, as the bedroom of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, from Yongle Emperor Zhu Di to Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, a total of 14 emperors have lived here.

"Xuandong Factory Cao Zhengchun is here!"

The two had just waited for a short time, and Zhu Houzhao summoned Cao Zhengchun to meet him, and Chen Hao also followed.

When he walked into the Qianqing Palace, he saw two men standing in the palace, one of them Chen Hao knew, it was Duan Tianya, who was fighting with him in the valley that day, next to him was a middle-aged man with a luxurious bearing and a serious face, and only the iron gall god Hou Zhu ignored such a bearing.

"The slave has seen Your Majesty......" As soon as he walked into the hall, Cao Zhengchun was about to kneel down to Zhu Houzhao, Chen Hao frowned, he didn't like to kneel.

"Excuse me, excuse me." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand again and again, his mother was missing, how could he have time to watch Cao Zhengchun pay homage.

Zhu Houzhao naturally saw Chen Hao, but he didn't say hello to Chen Hao, he pointed to Cao Zhengchun's head and scolded: "You dog slave did a good thing, how do you guard the palace, I don't know if the Queen Mother is missing." ”

Cao Zhengchun said: "Dongchang caught three masked people who participated in the abduction of the Queen Mother. ”

"Where are the people?" Zhu Houzhao's face was overjoyed.

Cao Zhengchun said: "They gritted the poison pill hidden behind their teeth and committed suicide by taking poison!" ”

"You ......" Zhu Hou patted the table angrily.

"Don't worry, your majesty, lest you get angry." Zhu ignored the persuasion.

Cao Zhengchun also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, please forgive the slave for a few days, the slave will definitely be able to catch the gangster who abducted the Queen Mother and rescue the Queen Mother." ”

Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly and said, "This time, the Dragon Guardian Villa and the East Factory are cooperating, and you must rescue the Queen Mother within three days." ”

Cao Zhengchun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please slow down, Dongchang is responsible for the affairs in the palace, I don't think you should bother your lord, right?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "Shenhou is my imperial uncle, and the disappearance of the queen mother is both a state affair and a family matter, so the matter is decided." ”

"Yes!" Zhu said disregardedly.

Cao Zhengchun was unwilling, and said: "The slave is afraid that the two sides will do things differently, and I am afraid that there will be friction." ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "Okay, then investigate separately, and you will each do your own thing." ”

Cao Zhengchun reluctantly agreed, he believed that with Chen Hao's help, he would definitely be able to find the Queen Mother before Zhu ignored it.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao suddenly sighed and said: "Princess Rihide of Izumo Province and the minister Karasuma have been at the post house for three days, paying tribute and fulfilling the marriage contract, their large number of dowries have reached the treasury, and Karasuma's national letter has been pressed on my table for three days. ”

Zhu ignored and pondered for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, you can temporarily say that the Queen Mother is in discord, and she will be summoned again after she recovers." ”

"Well, it seems that this is the only way!" Zhu Houzhao said helplessly.

Cao Zhengchun said: "Your Majesty, Karasuma is waiting at the post house next to the palace gate at this time, do you see it or not?" ”

"There's no way back, so let's see!" Zhu Houzhao said.

"It's rumored that the envoy of the Cloud Kingdom Karasuma has come to meet you!" Hearing that the emperor wanted to see Karasuma, Liu Jin, who was standing on the side, shouted.

Zhu ignored and suddenly asked, "Dare to ask the emperor if he wears gold silk armor on his body?" ”

Zhu Houzhao was puzzled: "Why? ”

Zhu ignored it and said: "Weichen has intelligence, Karasuma is a top master, although Weichen is now by the emperor's side, but everything must be careful." ”

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, if Karasuma makes any changes, the slave will use the vajra body that he has practiced in fifty years as the emperor's shield." Cao Zhengchun hurriedly offered his loyalty, and raised his hand to Chen Hao as he spoke.

said: "This is Lu Yan, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the emperor must know each other, his skills are not under the minions, with the strength of the two of us, let alone Karasuma, even the gods can't hurt the emperor in the slightest." ”

Zhu ignored it and said coldly: "What does Lord Cao mean, this king is brave and loyal, how can he hurt the emperor?" ”

Cao Zhengchun smiled: "Haha, don't misunderstand, this governor is just an analogy!" ”

"Enough, stop arguing!" Zhu Houzhao's face sank.

"Yes!" Cao Zhengchun and Zhu ignored and hurriedly closed their mouths.

Zhu Houzhao moved his gaze to Chen Hao again, and said: "Lu Yanzhen is naturally familiar with him, I haven't seen him for two or three years, but I didn't expect to become a master no less than Cao Zhengchun!" "Zhu Houzhao is very good at acting, and no one can doubt that he has already met Chen Hao half a month ago!

Chen Hao said modestly: "Lord Cao is just praising it, and it shouldn't be true. ”

Zhu Houzhao just smiled, to be honest, he didn't believe that Chen Hao's martial arts were no less than Cao Zhengchun, he felt that it was very likely that Cao Zhengchun was Chen Hao who gave Lu Chuan face.

"Karasuma-sama arrives at ......" After a short while, Karasuma, the envoy of Izumo Province, entered the Qianqing Palace.
