Zhao Jin muttered: "Our queen, it's quite wild?" ”

He understood, the queen turned into a little eunuch to seduce the emperor, a new trick that the emperor had never tried, of course he was not needed, so it was really the queen who was making trouble.

After Zhao Jin figured out why the emperor broke the appointment, there was a new question, why did the queen do this?

After thinking about it slightly, he still returned to the place he had considered before, the queen didn't let him talk to the emperor alone, he couldn't mention the matter of the celebrant eunuch, the queen wanted to take care of him in this matter.

yes, pinch him, that look.

Zhao Jin clenched his fists and said, "Our family is unwilling, do we have to follow the path of the queen?" ”

To be pinched by a woman?

But the tornado is not as good as the pillow wind, and he is struggling to see the emperor now, and he doesn't want to miss the opportunity in other ways.

Zhao Jin thought to himself, if I curry favor with the queen, maybe this matter has already been decided.

But she is really unwilling, the queen is a merchant girl, if it weren't for him, she would not have been able to enter the palace as a queen.

Yang Houzhao didn't go to the backstreet before, because it was too close to the palace gate and it was boring.

The little emperor just doesn't like the environment of the palace, so the farther he can go, the better, that day it was Zhao Jin who said to the little emperor, there is a street behind the imperial city, very prosperous, the little emperor went, saw Li Zhao dressed as a man, followed for three days, and on the third day, he talked.

And the reason why Zhao Jin let the little emperor go to the back street is because Wanguo Temple came to a monk from other places, he believed in Buddhism, so he went to see the monk's face, the monk told him that he had the appearance of the emperor, but he needed the help of a nobleman, who is this nobleman, the monk said that the heavenly opportunity should not be revealed, but pointed him in the direction and asked him to lead the emperor to Niangniang Temple Street, and the heavens had their own arrangements.

But he didn't find any of his nobles, but the little emperor found the woman he loved.

Could it be that the queen is his nobleman?

Zhao Jin thought about it at this time, but it didn't seem right, the monk said that the noble man was a man.

So it's not the queen at all, and the queen won't have him selling jade on the street for a lifetime, and it will be impossible to enter the palace.

Then he is obviously the queen's nobleman, and the queen is obviously grateful to him today, but now she is against him, and he wants to beg the merchant girl, and he is unwilling.

Zhao Jin was hesitating, and a little eunuch came outside to ask to see him.

Zhao Jin was in a bad mood and snorted, "Come in." ”

The little eunuch came in trembling and said, "Father-in-law, it was Father-in-law Zhang's person who came to deliver a message to you, Ma Yongcheng was severely punished in the Imperial Prison, and he was about to die, so I asked you if you wanted to go and see it." ”

"Ma Yongcheng?"

Yes, Ma Yongcheng was handed over as a substitute for the dead, how could he survive in a place like the Imperial Prison, it was already very good that the emperor did not let him die immediately.

Zhao Jin sneered, this person is always competing with our family for favor, his head is not bright, he is looking for death, what do you see?

He waved his hand to the chamberlain: "What do you see?" Don't go. ”

The little chamberlain turned around and was about to leave.

Zhao Jin shouted, "Wait." ”

The chamberlain turned his head.

Zhao Jin smiled: "Go, why don't you go." ”

This person has been competing with him for favor, and finally fought to the death, right? Gotta go and see, see how he died, and let him see that he hadn't been driven away at all, and that he was still glorious.

****

In front of Chengtianmen, there is a large piece of land, all of which are the yamen of the functional departments of the dynasty.

The central axis with Chengtianmen is the Governor's Mansion of the Central Army, the Governor's Mansion of the Left Army, the Governor's Mansion of the Right Army, and then the Governor's Mansion of the former Army.

The yamen next to the northwest of the former military governor's mansion is the yamen of Jinyiwei.

The edict prison is in the backyard of the Jinyi Guard's yamen.

The terrible thing about the edict is that all the officials are afraid of it, because the edict is not only a bad environment, but can also use lynching and torture, and those who have been served by the prison guards will be skinned if they do not die.

Ma Yongcheng was held in the third cell of the Imperial Prison Torture Cell.

Yesterday he had just been tortured, and every piece of his body had been whipped with barbed thorns.

At that time, the pain was numb, and he didn't feel anything, and when he came back, he had a fever all over his body in the middle of the night, and he couldn't move his legs and feet, and he knew that he was disabled, and he was also infected with a terrible wind chill.

The wind chill is not terrible, and it can be cured with money and doctors.

Now it was terrible, because he had no money in prison, and it was impossible for someone to send him a doctor.

He didn't know what time it was, he looked into the corner with his eyes open, and asked, "Bao'er, what time is it?" ”

Xiaobao is his godson, betrayed him, but there was no good end, and with him, they were all locked up.

Xiaobao was also tortured, but not as miserable as Ma Yongcheng, he knew that Ma Yongcheng was cold, and asked rhetorically: "Why do you ask Shichen?" Did you see black and white impermanence coming to ask for your life? ”

After saying that, he was so frightened that he shrank his neck.

Ma Yongcheng scolded: "Do you want me to die? I just don't die, if it weren't for your dog betraying me, how could Banzai blame me? I'm still the bell of Channing Palace. ”

Xiaobao was also angry, and sneered: "Who betrayed whom? Didn't you ask me to arrange Wang Pingting, I need to carry the black pot for you? ”

"It's not Wang Pingting that I asked you to arrange, it's you who took refuge in the Queen Mother, right?"

"It's okay not to mention it, you are really stupid, the emperor is your master, why did you betray the emperor and take refuge in the queen mother, it is all you, and I am also affected by you."

This is an issue that they have argued about countless times.

It was not that he took refuge in the Queen Mother, it was the emperor who forced him, and the Queen Mother also forced him.

"It's not my fault, it's all yours."

Xiaobao said: "You are so confident, you can still quarrel with me, are you going back to the light and die, right?" ”

"You're talking nonsense."

How terrible death is, anyone who hears that they are going to die will be scared to death, right?

Ma Yongcheng didn't care about arguing with Xiaobao, he did feel that he was conscious, and the pain seemed to be gone, the old man said that people don't have illness when they die.

So he's going to die?

No, no, no.

He doesn't want to die yet, he is the big man of the Qianqing Palace, he is a celebrity in front of the emperor, how could he die?

At this moment, Ma Yongcheng seemed to see the figures of Zhao Jin and Zhang Yong appear outside the cell, the cells were all made of iron fences, and there were many gaps, and he could clearly see Zhang Yong and Zhao Jin's crimson inner clothes, as well as the patterns on them.

No, it won't be them, there are eight of them, why is he in prison and everyone else is outside the cell.

Ma Yongcheng shouted: "This is unfair, I don't want to die, I want to see the emperor." ”

It is indeed Zhang Yong, Zhao Jin is here, they are all slaves, serving a master, although there is disharmony in the middle, but it is harmless, Zhang Yong has a kind of sympathy for Ma Yongcheng and a dead dog, so he came to collect Ma Yongcheng's body.
