Xia said slowly: "It's actually very simple, have you forgotten it?" I have a specialty from childhood to adulthood, that is, I am good at copying anyone's handwriting, as long as I let me take a look at the handwriting of the eldest princess, I will definitely be able to imitate it when the time comes. As long as they sent a letter to Huaiming Garden in the name of the eldest princess, they could naturally settle down after seeing the letter. ”

After hearing Xia say this, Zhu Jianchen hurriedly nodded and said: "Your method is very good, okay, in that case, I might as well give Zhu Jianshen three days, so that he can enjoy the taste of being the emperor again." It's just that I can only give him three days, and if he can't write the abdication edict after three days, I will definitely not let him go. ”

Xia Liao followed behind Zhu Jianchen and comforted him softly: "Lord Wang, the so-called great business must be calm, you have been forbearance for so many years, why do you care about forbearance for a moment?" In fact, what is the prince thinking in his heart, why is it not clear? The reason why I plead for the emperor is not because I have the emperor in my heart, nor because I think about the emperor in everything, but for the prince. Although it is true that there was Tang Taizong and Song Taizu sitting on the throne in ancient times, and they were not criticized by others, but because of many kinds of coincidences in it, if they can justifiably ascend the throne, they will definitely convince the subjects of the world, and the prestige of the prince will also be consolidated, which is naturally much better than seeking a dynasty to usurp the throne. Lord, what do you think of this matter? ”

After hearing her say this, Zhu Jianchen's anger disappeared a lot, Zhu Jianchen turned his face, nodded and said: "Yes, thank you, all along, it is really for the sake of this king, in fact, what you said has also been carefully considered by this king, and it is indeed very reasonable." Since this is the case, then let's do as you say, now let's go to Wan'an Palace, find the handwriting of the eldest princess, and then you can write a letter to Fang Xiao, Jiang Shaoheng and others, and appease those people first. ”

"Yes." Xia agreed and came to Wan'an Palace with Zhu Jianchen.

Because Jian Huaizhen was sent to the Madman Tower, it was already silent in the Wan'an Palace, and after they came, they walked in, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were guarding there saw them and saluted them.

Xia Liao walked in with Zhu Jianchen, and saw that Wan'an Palace was a little damaged, which was obviously a little different from when Jian Huaizhen was there, and there was a little bit of sadness in his heart for a while.

After Zhu Jianchen and Xia walked in, his face also showed a bit of a feeling of Xiao Se, the reason why he became so sad was not because Jian Huaizhen was imprisoned in the Crazy Man Tower by him, nor because of other reasons, the main reason was because Jian Huaizhen refused to help him no matter what, but he was willing to help Zhu Jianshen, which made him really incomprehensible, so his heart was a little melancholy for a while.

After walking in, Xia Liao carefully flipped through the place where Jian Huaizhen stacked books, and found that she had all kinds of books there, and couldn't help sighing and said: "The eldest princess really has read a lot of books, and the range of books is so wide that it is also amazing, but it's a pity that ......" Speaking of this, she stopped talking.

She saw that the look on Zhu Jianchen's face was getting more and more ugly, and hurriedly persuaded: "Lord Wang, don't be sad, it was the slave maid who had no choice but to say these words just now." Lord, don't take it to heart. ”

Zhu Jianchen nodded, and did not speak again.

Zhu Jianchen and Xia searched everywhere, and finally found some letters written by Jian Huaizhen, as well as some notes in the book.

Xia took a closer look at Jian Huaizhen's handwriting, and said slowly: "The eldest princess's handwriting is handsome and a little deep, and it is quite atmospheric in the stretch, it is not so easy to imitate." However, if you are confident that you can copy it for one night, you will be able to write calligraphy by tomorrow. ”

After hearing her say this, Zhu Jianchen nodded and said, "It's okay, it's really hard for you." ”

"To be able to do things for the prince, there is nothing hard to do, I just hope that the prince can stretch his heart and not get along with himself."

Zhu Jianchen nodded and said to her, "This king will accompany you here tonight." ”

"No need, the prince should have a good rest, the prince still has a lot of family and country affairs to do in the future, how can he accompany him to do these things here?" After finishing speaking, she pushed Zhu Jianchen out.

Zhu Jianchen was very moved in his heart, so he walked out, after he walked out, he thought about this matter carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt as if many things were blooming one by one in front of him, and he thought that he would soon be able to become the master of the world, not to mention how happy he felt.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Jianchen went to see Xia again, and found that she fell asleep on the desk, so he stepped forward to put on a dress for her, but he didn't want to wake up Xia Li.

Xia raised his head, saw Zhu Jianchen, smiled slightly, and said, "Lord Wang, why are you here?" ”

Zhu Jianchen said slowly: "This king wants to see your progress, and besides, why have you been here all night?" What if something happens? ”

"Lord Wang, I want to practice calligraphy wholeheartedly, I can help Lord Wang, but I didn't expect to fall asleep. It's just that the calligraphy of the eldest princess can be copied a few points. As she spoke, she wrote a few words for Zhu Jianchen to read.

After Zhu Jianchen read it, he said slowly: "What you wrote is really good, and this king can't tell it at all." ”

"Then without further ado, I will hurry up and write a letter now, and the prince will send it to Huaiming Garden. I want the people in Huaiming Yuan to see this letter earlier, so that they will no longer doubt the prince. ”

"Okay." Zhu Jianchen nodded.

So Xia Liao copied Jian Huaizhen's handwriting, and then read the content of Jian Huaizhen's previous correspondence with them, and wrote on it: "Brother Fang, Brother Jiang, I heard that you have come back from everywhere, I am very grateful to you, if it weren't for your help, the situation would really be unimaginable." But no matter what, now that the emperor has recovered from his illness, I express my great gratitude, now I have to take care of the emperor, so I can't go out of the palace to see you so soon, and I can come out of the palace soon to thank you. ”

After writing these words, she said: "I have already written, now the prince should quickly find someone to send him out of the palace." ”

"Okay." So Zhu Jianchen agreed, and ordered someone to send this letter to Huaiming Garden, and then he felt like he had put down a big stone in his heart, and said slowly: "Originally, this king was worried about how to deal with them, but now it is much easier, I hope nothing will happen." ”

"Lord, don't worry, I don't think anything will happen. Anyway, we've got them out, so it's much easier. The next thing we should do is to persuade the emperor as soon as possible, so that the emperor can write an edict of abdication. After all, this throne was personally returned by the emperor to the prince, and if others have a slight resignation, it can't mean anything. ”

"You have a point, so let's go now." So the two of them went to visit Zhu Jianshen in the Qianqing Palace again, wanting to see what Zhu Jianshen's opinion was.

At the same time, the letter was also quickly sent to Huaiming Yuan, at this moment, Fang Xiao, Jiang Shaoheng and others had already rushed back from the south and the north, and after they came back, each of them looked dusty and tired.

The first to come back was Jiang Shaoheng, after Jiang Shaoheng returned to Huaiming Yuan, he waited there, and after a long time, when he saw that Fang Xiao and Ji Qihan had returned, he couldn't help laughing: "It's still faster than you, but it just so happens that I came back earlier than you this time." ”

The crowd laughed again.

Jiang Shaoheng suddenly remembered and asked, "Why didn't Polang come back?" ”

At this time, Jian Wenying and his wife walked in together, and after walking in, Jian Wenying's face was full of anxious looks, but she didn't want to show it, and Princess Luoxue couldn't hide her worries, and asked repeatedly: "Why hasn't Breaking the Waves come back yet?" It stands to reason that Tianshan is the closest to here, and he should be back soon. ”

Seeing this situation, Ji Qihan and the others hurriedly comforted her and said, "Don't worry so much, don't worry, Polang will definitely come back." He's so smart, he must be fine. ”

When Jian Polang went out, he was wearing a good set of clothes, but the clothes on his body were in tatters, and the whole person looked as if he had been beaten violently, and everyone couldn't help but be in an uproar.

But he didn't have any injuries on his body, so he asked, "Breaking the waves, what happened?" ”

Jian Polang explained embarrassedly, only then did he know that it was on the road, he sympathized with a girl, so he gave her a little silver taels, who knew that the girl's way, and actually took away all the silver taels and clothes on his body, which is really good intentions and no good retribution.

After listening to him, everyone couldn't help laughing, laughing at him for being a hero and sad to pass the beauty pass.

And at this time, someone from the palace came to deliver the letter, and the attendant of Huai Mingyuan came forward and said to Jiang Shaoheng: "Master, someone sent this letter, saying that it was sent from the palace, and that the princess ordered them to send it, and the master can take a look." After speaking, he handed the letter to Jiang Shaoheng.

Jiang Shaoheng took the letter, and sure enough, he found that it was Jian Huaizhen's handwriting, so he opened the letter, only to see that the letter was written with such content, which was nothing more than saying that now the emperor was well, and she needed to take care of the emperor in the palace, so there was no way to rush over to thank them, and thank them for all they did for Jian Huaizhen.

Fang Xiao smiled and said, "No matter what, it won't be in vain for us to go around now." Princess, although we didn't get the medicinal materials we wanted, but anyway, the emperor's condition has now recovered, which is a good thing for the princess sister. ”

Hearing them say this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

However, Ji Qihan vaguely felt that something was wrong, and he said slowly: "How could the princess cure the emperor's illness so easily?" I haven't heard of King Jing being arrested, what the hell is going on? I've always felt that this is a bit strange, and it doesn't seem to be as simple as we think. ”

"You think too much, how can this not be as simple as we think? It's not that complicated, and besides, I think it's easy to do everything at this point. Now that the emperor's illness has been cured, this is a great joy. At this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

However, I don't know why, Ji Kaihan always has a lot of doubts in his heart that can't be solved.

Fang Yu said coldly: "Brother Ji, shouldn't you have been out for too long, so that you are a little confused, right?" Isn't it good that this matter is settled? Do we really want to die for the emperor of the Ming Dynasty? ”

Fang Xiao's face became more and more ugly, he looked at the letter and said, "I think Brother Ji's speculation is not unreasonable, I don't think this letter came from the hand of the princess sister." ”

Fang Yu shook his head and refuted him, "How can this letter not come from the princess's sister? As soon as I read this letter, I knew that it was the handwriting of the princess's sister, and she had exchanged letters with us many times on weekdays, so could she not recognize her handwriting? ”

Fang Yu shook his head solemnly and said, "Although the words are good, but this is not the case, on the surface, it seems that this letter was really written by the princess's sister, but in fact it is not. I don't know if you have seen it clearly, although the handwriting of this letter is indeed a copy of the handwriting of the princess's sister, but in fact it is not as simple as we think. Have you noticed that when the princess sister writes this thank you, the words she writes are not the same as the words written by ordinary people, at the top of the words, she often writes a horizontal look, although this person is also imitating the princess girl, but she is a point. I don't think a person's habits that have been formed over the years will not change, so I firmly don't believe that the princess girl will suddenly change her writing habits. ”

When everyone heard him say this, they were all slightly stunned, and they were speechless for a while.

"Yes, what you said does make a little sense, I also think that the princess sister should not change her handwriting at will, and I think this matter is really a bit incredible, why is the emperor's illness so easy to heal? And this soul dementorship was originally given to him by Zhu Jianchen, but now there is no news of Zhu Jianchen's arrest, this harem is too calm, and it is precisely because it is too calm, but it makes people feel that something is wrong. ”

After hearing his words, everyone didn't speak for a while, and they all felt that something was indeed wrong.

Princess Luoxue thought for a while, and said slowly: "In this case, why don't I go to the palace to visit the princess sister, maybe I can see what clues there are, you also know that I was originally a member of the royal family, and if I was asked to visit the princess sister, it would not be so eye-catching." ”

Jian Wenying said repeatedly: "In this case, it's okay, but this time entering the palace is very dangerous, you must be very careful." ”

"Don't worry, I know, once I find out that there is something wrong with the situation, I will hurry out of the palace and tell you the truth of the matter." Luo Xue said continuously.

"I don't approve of my sister-in-law doing this." Jiang Shaoheng shook his head and said in a continuous voice.

"Why? Don't you believe me? Snow Princess suddenly became a little displeased.

"Of course not, of course I believe in my sister-in-law. But there is one thing, sister-in-law also has to figure it out, and what is the situation in this palace now, we don't know at all, if the sister-in-law goes rashly, I am afraid that it will be dangerous, and the most important thing is that if the grass startles the snake, then the situation will not be good. ”

After hearing him say this, everyone nodded and said, "You have a point, if it is a surprise to the snake, then it is not good." So now I resolutely disagree with going by Sister Luoxue, I think things have come to this point, you might as well let me, or Brother Fang Xiao, go to the palace at night to take a look, what happened, Brother Fang Xiao, what do you think? ”

Fang Xiao laughed and said: "Of course, I haven't been to the palace at night for a long time, the last time I visited the palace at night, I actually fell into King Jing's way, thinking about it, it really makes people feel a little ashamed, and now it happens to be a good opportunity to wash away this shame, with such a good opportunity, why wouldn't I go?" And since you all suspect that something happened to the princess sister, I bet with you that nothing happened to the princess sister, but you are just too worried. In that case, let's talk about it when we find out something. So they nodded, and the matter was settled.

I don't know why, Jiang Shaoheng and Ji Qihan always felt that this matter was not as simple as they thought, but Fang Yu resolutely disagreed, Fang Xiao felt that Jian Huaizhen was a very capable person, how could she lose any sense of proportion in this matter? Therefore, he resolutely didn't believe that Jian Huaizhen had encountered any danger, nor did he believe in Jiang Shaoheng and Ji Qihan's theories, so they decided to go into the palace to see what was going on.

In the evening, they quickly came to the outside of the Forbidden City, the reason why they entered the palace last time was robbed was because King Jing had long expected that they might come, but this time King Jing never dreamed that Xia Zhi's letter did not deceive them at all, so King Jing really didn't worry that they would come to the palace, so King Jing did not arrange for anyone to watch outside the palace.

As a result, they easily infiltrated the palace, and after sneaking into the palace, Fang Yu thought about it and said slowly: "Shall we go directly to Wan'an Palace?" I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll scare the princess. ”

Jiang Shaoheng nodded and said, "Yes, we have to hurry to Wan'an Palace now to see what happened." If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid something has happened to the princess by now. ”

"Why do you say that? I see that the house is very peaceful, and it doesn't look like anything has happened. Fang Xiao said disapprerovingly.

Jiang Shaoheng nodded and said: "It's because this palace is too calm, so I feel puzzled, it stands to reason that the emperor is just right, shouldn't this palace be so calm, don't you think so?" After Jiang Shaoheng finished speaking, he glanced at Fang Yu.

Fang Xiao laughed and said: "Brother Shaoheng, I think you really think about a lot of things, if the palace is very calm now, and you say that there is something in the palace, and sometimes the palace is not calm, and you suspect that there is something in the palace, according to what you say, there is something in this palace at any time." Don't worry, I promise that we will be able to see the princess and sister safe and sound in the Wan'an Palace in a while. ”

While talking, the two of them quietly sneaked into the edge of Wan'an Palace, and when they arrived at Wan'an Palace, they looked inside, only to see that it was very quiet inside, there was no sound at all, and at the gate of the palace, there were two eunuchs napping, so Fang Xiao and Jiang Shaoheng each threw out a stone and hit the eunuch's sleeping hole, and the eunuch immediately fell asleep and didn't wake up for anything.

Then the two of them walked in in a grand manner, and along the way, they may have also met eunuchs and palace maids guarding them, but where were those eunuchs and palace maids the opponents of the two of them, they were quickly subdued by them, and those people didn't know what was going on, so they fell asleep in a groggy state.

They quickly entered the inside, and after arriving inside, Jiang Shaoheng and Fang Xiao looked around and found that there was no one in the dark light, which made the two of them feel a little strange, especially Fang Xiao, even he sniffed out that something was wrong, it stands to reason that in this palace, it shouldn't be so calm, if Jian Huaizhen was really fine, it was impossible that the palace maids and eunuchs in her palace were all subdued, and she didn't find it at all.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

When Jiang Shaoheng saw his appearance, he said to him, "How is it?" Brother Fang, do you also feel that something is wrong? ”

Fang Yu nodded, and said solemnly: "Yes, you have a point, it seems that I am really too underestimated, originally I thought that nothing had happened in this palace, but now I don't think so, with the skills and agility of the princess sister, we sneaked into the palace, how could she not know?" Now she doesn't feel anything, and I dare say something must be wrong. ”

"Yes, I think so too." Jiang Shaoheng nodded and said: "And I don't think a person's habits will be changed so easily, and you also saw the letter from the princess's sister, which is obviously problematic." ”

The two of them said as they walked towards Jian Huaizhen's bedroom, if it was on weekdays, the two of them would never be so bold and rude, and they would not have broken into Jian Huaizhen's bedroom directly, after all, men and women are not kissed, so it is very bad to break in directly, but in this case, they can't care so much.

Soon, the two of them came to Jian Huaizhen's bedroom, and easily avoided all the guards, eunuchs and palace maids, and when they arrived at Jian Huaizhen's bedroom, they found that the bedroom was empty, which made the two very worried.

"Where the hell is the princess?" Jiang Shaoheng said a little anxiously.

Fang Yu looked at him with a solemn expression, and said slowly: "I don't know if you have noticed, it seems that no one has cleaned this dormitory for several days. The princess girl is a very clean person, and will never allow this to happen, unless someone deliberately does not let people come in to clean. And the princess sister is afraid that she has not been here for a long time. ”

"yes, what the hell is going on?" Both of them were very nervous.

Jiang Shaoheng and Fang Xiao didn't know what to say for a while, both of them were very worried, but it was precisely because they were so worried that they didn't know what was going on, so they were even more nervous.

What should I do at this point? Jiang Shaoheng and Fang Xiao looked at each other.

Fang Yu said: "Don't be nervous, I believe that we will be able to find a way, after all, things have come to this point, we can only rely on ourselves, I believe that nothing should happen to the princess sister, if something really happens, I feel that things are not so simple, and it is not easy to say." Whether it's that simple or not is not something for the two of us to decide. ”

After the two of them said this, they were very nervous for a while, but they didn't know what to do, they were both very worried, but they didn't know what to do, when the two of them were hesitating, they suddenly heard footsteps walking in, the footsteps seemed to come out of a house inside, so they didn't know that there were many eunuchs and palace maids who were subdued outside, so they heard the two people say while walking: "Hey, I don't know where the eldest princess was sent." ”

Another person whispered to him: "You lower your voice, if the prince knows, it will be miserable, you dare to discuss this matter in private, but it is a dead end." ”

After hearing the words of the palace maid, another palace maid whispered: "I also know that you can't discuss it casually, the prince is really too cruel, just by looking at him arresting the eldest princess, you can know how cruel this person is." ”

"King Jing is really ruthless." One of them sighed.

Jiang Shaoheng and Fang Xiao listened carefully, and found that these two people's voices were immature, they should be relatively young palace maids in the palace, listening to the words of these two palace maids, it seemed that Jian Huaizhen had been controlled by King Jing, and the two of them glanced at each other, with a trace of worry in their eyes.

At this time, I heard another palace maid whisper: "You are so bold, you dare to say anything, if this is heard by King Jing, don't you want to die?" You also know how ruthless King Jing is, he doesn't even let go of his relatives, not to mention that you and I are just little palace maids? So, for the things in the palace, the two of us still can't see or hear, and it's better to think that we don't know anything, otherwise, we don't even know how we died. ”

After hearing her say this, another palace maid said in a loud voice: "Sister Lianxiang, I know that I said it wrong, and I will never dare to do it again in the future." By the way, the two of us have been staying in this house, and it's not good to pretend to serve the eldest princess, sooner or later someone will find out, if we find out, how can that King Jing let us go? ”

"Let's talk about it then, fortunately, Xia Guiren is not bad, and he is willing to intercede for our palace maid, hey, it's a pity that I don't know what Xia Guiren thinks, and he is willing to go along with King Jing, which really makes me understand." The two of them sighed as they spoke.

At this time, Fang Xiao and Jiang Shaoheng finally understood what was going on, the matter was very simple, that is, Jian Huaizhen had been controlled, and the entire palace had now become King Jing's world, the two of them glanced at each other, so they subdued the two palace maids.

After beating the two palace maids to sleep and making them fall asleep, Fang Xiao glanced at Jiang Shaoheng and said slowly, "What should I do?" Brother Shaoheng, you are right, it turns out that the princess has really been subdued by them, so what should I do? How can we save the princess? ”

"I don't know." Jiang Shaoheng shook his head, I think the most important thing now is to find out where the princess sister is being held, listening to them, the princess sister should not have encountered any danger, as long as the princess sister can find out where the princess sister is, I believe that if you want to find her, it will be much easier, we will go to Zhu Jianchen now, force him to tell the whereabouts of the eldest princess, let's go. After speaking, Jiang Shaoheng and Fang Yu prepared to go out.

Jiang Shaoheng thought for a while, but said: "I think we are still a little too reckless, King Jing actually wants to be the emperor wholeheartedly, we just catch him, he will not say where the princess sister is from, maybe it will affect the princess sister, I think we might as well investigate and secretly visit, and find a way to find out the location of the princess sister, do you think it?" ”

"What you said is also very reasonable, but we are not very familiar with this palace, and we don't know if the princess sister is in the palace, so how can we check?" The two of them were a little hesitant in the room, and they didn't know what to do.

And at this time, Fang Xiao seemed to remember something, and said, "By the way, I know that there is someone who can help us. ”

"Who?"

"It's Wan Zhen'er, do you remember that last time it was Wan Zhen'er who secretly helped the princess sister to give the medicine, and it was also Wan Zhen'er who cooperated with Yun Cao, so we were able to enter the palace, as long as we found Wan Zhen'er, then the situation would be much easier. We can find out where the princess is, what do you think? ”

"Well, that's a good idea. So what are we waiting for, let's go find Wan Zhen'er quickly. So the two of them hurried to the outside of Wan Zhen'er's palace.

It's just that what makes them feel strange is that the outside of Wan Zhen'er's palace still looks dark, as if no one lives at all, they think it's very strange.

Jiang Shaoheng thought about it carefully and said, "If I think well, it is possible that Wan Zhen'er has also been caught by them, what should I do?" ”

Fang Yu said hatefully: "Since this is the case, we will simply arrest King Jing, I don't believe that between asking him to die and confessing, he will not tell the truth of the facts." ”

After Jiang Shaoheng heard him say this, he felt that what he said was not unreasonable, after all, he didn't know where Wan Zhen'er was locked up now, and he didn't know whether Wan Zhen'er was dead or alive.

He thought about it, and then said to Fang Yu: "It's better for us to go separately, one will visit the emperor to see how the emperor is living and dying now, and the other will go to catch King Jing and ask King Jing about the whereabouts of the eldest princess." ”

Fang Yu immediately smiled and said: "This matter is much easier, this kind of thing is the most suitable for me, especially for King Jing, I have a lot of unhappiness with him in my heart, and now I just torture him, as for visiting the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty, this kind of thing is better for you to do." You also know that I really don't have a good impression of this emperor. ”

"It's fine." Jiang Shaoheng thought for a while and said, "Then we will meet here in a while." So the two men went their separate ways.

After Fang Xiao and Jiang Shaoheng separated, they went straight to find Zhu Jianchen, and he walked around before he realized that he had encountered a problem, that is, where was King Jing hiding? Which palace is King Jing in now? He didn't know at all, so how could he find King Jing? He was walking a few steps when he suddenly saw a slave and maid in front of him approaching, and the slave and maid turned out to be familiar.
