Hua Qiao entered the palace to find out the cause of death for her mother, and Zhu Zhanji would do the rest.

Shen Hongmian was also left by him in the Taisun East Palace.

Zhu Zhanji looked coldly, and in the past two days, Zhu Zhanpei really didn't go to worship Lan Cairen. But it didn't affect him to take advantage of Zhu Gaochi's sadness to get close to his father, and he went to the East Palace every day to ask for more work.

Lan Cairen's coffin was pulled out of the palace in the middle of the night on the third day, and the mourning bell on the ox cart sounded lonely and miserable in the silent night.

"Huyan, who do you see that is?"

At the end of the early dynasty, Hu Yanjin stayed in the palace to discuss matters, and when he and the prince went out of the palace together, he happened to see Zhu Zhanpei, I don't know if he went to ask for peace, and hurriedly walked to the prince's east palace.

Seeing that he was about to step on the flowing water bridge, Zhu Zhanpei also saw Taisun, and wanted to stop and let Taisun pass him again, but he didn't expect Taisun to stop first, so he had to lift his feet and go onto the small bridge.

The Flowing Water Bridge is a small arched bridge, and for these people, they are tall and long, but it is only a dozen or twenty steps. Zhu Zhanpei went to the bridge, but when he saw that Taisun and Hu Yanjin were also on the bridge, it was difficult to go back, so he had to walk towards them head-on.

"Brother Huang, is it so coincidental?" Zhu Zhanpei took the initiative to greet Zhu Zhanji and gave Zhu Zhanji his hand.

Zhu Zhanji smiled and nodded, and did not return the salute, but turned back to Hu Yanjin and asked:

"You said geese flew in the palace this morning, where are the geese?"

Hu Yanjin comprehended and continued: "It's around here." Look, isn't there one? ”

I saw him walk to the railing of the bridge and point his hand into the water under the bridge, Zhu Zhanpei couldn't help but look down in the direction he pointed. Hu Yanjin, who was standing next to him, kicked his shoes, and at the same time sent him forward with his hand, and shouted:

"Lord Wang, be careful!"

Zhu Zhanpei didn't expect Hu Yanjin to make a sudden move, and before he could react, he was pushed into the water under the bridge.

Hu Yanjin shouted: "Someone! Someone's overboard! ”

A few waiters soon came over next to him, and they pulled Zhu Zhanpei ashore with all hands and feet.

This was originally a decorative artificial river, the water was only half a person high, and a lot of silt had accumulated at the bottom, Zhu Zhanpei was not injured when he fell into the water, but his whole body was wet, and his hat also fell into the water, and he was embarrassed.

"Sixth brother, why are you so careless? It's just to look at a water duck, why do you still see yourself in the river? Hu Yanjin, why don't you hurry up and wipe King Lu Cheng? Beware of your sins. ”

Before Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, Hu Yanjin had already walked to Zhu Zhanpei's side, and bent down to pick the fallen leaves and aquatic plants stuck to his body: "Oh, go and get clean clothes and pants, Lu Chengwang's pants are torn, if there is an injury, you have to deal with it quickly......"

Zhu Zhanpei was really annoyed to the extreme: Don't you know if you hurt yourself? Do you want your hand to touch my leg? But the imperial grandson was standing next to him, looking at his lap with concern, and he was not angry.

Hu Yanjin was not polite at all, and scooped up Zhu Zhanpei's trouser leg in two clicks, revealing his calf.

The two pairs of eyes could see clearly, Zhu Zhanpei really had a wound on his calf, but it was an old wound, and the wound was a crescent-shaped white mark, although it was relatively large, it could be identified at a glance, as if it was the shape of a fingernail.

"It's good that I didn't get hurt, so it's a blessing. Hurry up and help King Lu Cheng over to change clothes, the spring water is cold, don't get sick. Zhu Zhanji said with concern, with an unfathomable smile on his face.

Zhu Zhanpei suffered a dumb loss, he didn't change his clothes, and he didn't want to ask for peace, so he only wrapped the cloak found by the inner servant around his body, and was helped out of the palace by the inner attendant.

Watching Zhu Zhanpei walk away, Zhu Zhanji and Hu Yanjin glanced at each other and said with a smile:

"Sure enough, it was Liu Yunniang's son, and Bai asked him to replace him, surnamed 'Zhu' for so many years. You tell Hua Qiao to let her not worry, this person is dead. You go back, I'll sit down with Mingzhu by myself. ”

He saw that Hu Yanjin wanted to speak and stopped, thinking that he was thinking about what happened in Mingzhu last time, and he still had a mustard in his heart, so he comforted him and said:

"Women like them are like this, but when they have some appearance, they think that all men in the world want to take advantage of her. If you don't take this matter to heart, why should you bother?

Besides, I can see that the buckwheat is pleased with you. The princess and the county lord marrying a high-grade minister are not in line with Taizu's customization, but the rules are set by people, let Gu think about it, how to break this example for you. ”

Zhu Zhanji patted Hu Yanjin on the shoulder and left with a smile.

Hu Yanjin wanted to tell Taisun that there was something wrong with Miss Mingzhu, but first, he hadn't gotten the evidence yet, and second, Taisun was involved in the matter between him and Hua Qiao, so it was difficult for him to speak.

Today, the grandson gave the emperor a royal village to himself, handed over to Huyanjin, this village is close to the imperial city, the key is that the village is planted for the royal family's melons and fruits, a year down, the income is also very considerable.

Give it to him, that is, let him help take care of the buckwheat, and in the future, he can be her dowry.

After recognizing his brother and sister that day, Zhu Zhanji asked Xiao Yan to send a lot of silver tickets over, seeing that although Hu Yanjin and Hua Qiao lived in one place, they lived in two separate households, so it was difficult for them not to move.

Back in the house, Hu Yanjin met Zhu Zhanpei just now, how the two pushed him into the water, took the opportunity to see the scar on his leg, and told Hua Qiao one by one.

Hua Qiao sighed and said, "Then there is nothing wrong with this." It's just that...... He is A-Niang's biological son, A-Niang is also pitiful, I can't bear to see her son lose his life. ”

"This Zhu Zhanpei's heart is broken, and it is impossible to have a chance to live. A-Niang also has a son, maybe you will be able to see him in a few days. ”

Hu Yanjin smiled and held her hand in the palm of her hand, she still had a few ink marks on her hand, in the past two days, she had been copying the Sutra of Life for her mother, and when she was ready to send it to Anguo Temple to recite it to the abbot when she was ready to do so.

"Hua Rong, they're coming?" Hua Qiao asked in surprise.

"I met Tao Qingyi, he came here in the New Year, and he came to pay New Year's greetings. He said that the master set off after the Lantern Festival, but a section of the Cao River was blocked again, and it was more troublesome to change boats and horses. Count the days, and they're almost there. ”

Hu Yanjin said, took out the land deed of the Huangzhuang in his arms, and the deed of sale of the servants in the village, handed it to Hua Qiao and said:

"This is given to you by the grandson, I will take you over to recognize the door when I have time."

"'Zhiyuzhuang'? This Zhuangzi also has such a nice name. Then let's wait for the rain to go. By the way, Xiao Gao's injury is almost better, I think, I still have to check the origin of Mingzhu. The grandson is often with her, in case ......"

Hu Yanjin nodded, this was also something he was worried about.

Fortunately, he is going to Zhulin Yaju today, and he has to ask his father.
