Emperor Tianyou has just received a report from the guards of the Dong'an Gate Forbidden Army, Zhu Zaimo, the second son of the King of Zhongshun, led people to surround the convoy escorting Taihu stone, the reason is unknown, if this happened to someone else, Emperor Tianyou may not take it to heart, at most send someone to reprimand Zhu Zaimo's arrogance, but this time it is different, the convoy is not only Suzhou Mansion to the Empress Dowager's birthday gift, but also has dozens of boxes of property, these things are not visible, the Bai family was wiped out, the sensation of the entire court, many people speculate that the palace is involved in this matter, But speculation is speculation after all, there is no evidence, those clear streams can only play tricks behind their backs, on the contrary, if this matter is confirmed, it will chill the hearts of people all over the world, and no one wants to be slaughtered like a pig like the Bai family.

Emperor Tianyou didn't dare to be careless, and immediately ordered Dai Quan to lead the forbidden army to relieve Jia Jue's siege, escort those belongings into the palace safely, and then investigate the responsibility.

In the upper study, Emperor Tianyou leaned on the dragon chair with his eyes slightly closed, but unlike before, the beard on his jaw was shaking slightly.

There was silence in the hall.

Suddenly, Emperor Tianyou opened his eyes suddenly, as if he was listening attentively, and in a moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall door.

At this time, a small yellow door reported at the door: "Your Majesty, Manager Dai is back." ”

"Xuan!"

As soon as the words fell, Dai Quan hurriedly walked in, bowed down and saluted: "Old slave see Your Majesty!" ”

Emperor Tianyou asked calmly, "How is it?" ”

"The cart transporting Taihu stones was shot by the second prince, and the Zhongshun Wangfu Haonu who stormed the convoy was repelled with bows and arrows by the escorted soldiers, and the big boxes were not exposed. The old slave watched them be sent to the inner treasury with his own eyes. ”

"Oh?"

Emperor Tianyou smiled and said to Dai Quan: "Xuan Jiajue.... Also, let that obstacle come in with you. ”

"Yes!"

Dai Quan understood and immediately walked out.

Looking at the back of Dai Quan's departure, Emperor Tianyou took a book of folds from the imperial case, which was just handed over by Jinyiwei, which recorded everything that happened outside Dong'an Gate in detail, well, Dai Quan did not lie, but, he deliberately disrupted the order of things, which would directly affect his judgment, however, Emperor Tianyou was not angry, but very happy.

After a cup of tea, Jia Jue walked into the upper study, and he gave a respectful salute, "Minister Jia Jue sees His Majesty the Emperor, may Your Majesty live long live, long live, long live!" ”

Emperor Tianyou's eyes showed a gentle smile, he looked at Jia Jue carefully, not to mention his appearance, there are no ugly men in the Jia family, and the royal family is the same, cough cough, there is an exception, glanced at Zhu Zaimo on the side, and was very unhappy in his heart, he couldn't help but think of the old saying 'people are ugly and weird', and his eyes fell on Jia Jue's body again, mature, steady, without the impetuousness of young people, well, the momentum on his body is a little compelling, but young people, it should be like this, just temper and temper.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "You are very good, you have not insulted the reputation of your ancestors, young people should dare to fight, as a disciple of the general, you should immediately take fame, don't be like those evil obstacles who are idle all day long, do not do their business, and the face of the ancestors has been lost!" ”

Speaking of this, Emperor Tianyou slapped the armrest of the dragon chair and shouted, "Damn evil obstacles, what kind of attitude do you have!" ”

Zhu Zaimo was startled, then he came back to his senses, and knelt down with weak legs, "I, I, I.... Your Majesty, I, I've lost my mind for a moment...."

Emperor Tianyou glanced at him with disdain, and then turned his gaze to Jia Jue, "You handled today's matter very well, tell me, how should this matter be handled?" ”

Jia Jue was stunned, he didn't expect Emperor Tianyou to kick the ball to himself, he didn't look up, he glanced at Emperor Tianyou, and found that Emperor Tianyou was smiling at him, this is the first time Jia Jue has seen Emperor Tianyou, not as old as he imagined, nor as majestic as he imagined, with a high nose bridge, slender and sharp black eyes, tall and thin, wearing only a light silk robe, tied in a bun, but his face is a little sickly pale.

"General Jia!"

Dai Quan couldn't help but whisper a reminder.

Jia Jue came back to his senses, thought about it, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, although the second prince said that he connived at the domestic slaves to poison the people, and collided with the birthday ceremony of the Queen Mother's birthday, but Nian was young and reckless, and he was a child of the clan, Your Majesty should give him a chance to change." As for him insulting his ministers in front of so many onlookers.... Of course, it doesn't matter if he insults his ministers, after all, the relationship between the two families is not good, but the soldiers who escorted the birthday ceremony into Beijing are innocent, they are all warriors who have been fighting against the Japanese bandits in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for many years, they are the heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and they should not be humiliated like this..."

Zhu Zaimo's face changed in fright, and he shouted: "Jia Jue, you are spewing blood, when did I say this!" ”

Emperor Tianyou's eyes widened, and his gaze was fierce towards Zhu Zaimo, "Shut up!" ”

Seeing this, Jia Jue continued: "Of course, these are all because the second son is young and ignorant, from that slap and an arrow, the minister can see that the second son has the talent to practice martial arts, and it would be a pity if he didn't join the army." The man's eldest husband should go to the military camp to experience the experience, it is better to do this, His Majesty handed over the second son to the minister, and the minister promised that within two years, His Majesty will definitely return a pillar of talent. ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.

Zhu Zaimo was even more angry, and looked at Jia Jue in a daze.

Emperor Tianyou glanced at him deeply, and nodded secretly, yes, he was indeed brave and strategic, not only took revenge on the spot, but also handed himself the steps to the emperor, but he couldn't hand Zhu Zaimo into his hands, no matter what, Zhu Zaimo was a child of the clan and could not be handed over to outsiders to dispose of, or the Jia family, even if he agreed, Da Zongzheng and other clan princes would not agree.

Thinking of this, he stroked his beard lightly and said to Dai Quan: "Bring this evil obstacle to the noon gate and punish it for forty years, and then send it to the Zongren Mansion to be imprisoned, well, it will be half a year." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Zaimo's heart was relieved, the Zhongshun Mansion has always been rooted in the army, he knows the rules of the army, if it falls into the hands of Jia Jue, although he doesn't dare to kill himself, but it is still okay to torture him from time to time, if he encounters a war, he can let himself die on the battlefield without life.

"Second son, thank you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Under Dai Quan's reminder, Zhu Zaimo kowtowed, got up and walked out with Dai Quan.

After solving Zhu Zaimo's matter, Emperor Tianyou was relieved, and smiled at Jia Jue again: "You may not have returned home for a long time, rest for a few days first, deal with the affairs at home, I have another important task entrusted to you." ”

Jia Jue didn't dare to object, and bowed down and replied: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

"Go ahead! I will promote you to a general, and as for the position... In the past two days, I have thought that I will order Dai Quan to announce the decree. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Jia Jue slowly retreated.

Jia Jue left, Emperor Tianyou gently pinched his temples, picked up the fold handed by the brocade guard, and smiled slightly, the Jia family has another talent, cultivate well, well, can take Jia Daishan's class.

Just when Jia Jue walked out of Zhengyang Gate, dozens of guards with swords escorted a carriage galloped to the carriage, the carriage stopped under the Zhengyang Gate, and two guards helped down a fat middle-aged man from the carriage, this person is Zhu Houjiong, the king of Zhongshun, he was originally discussing some things in the Dazong Zhengfu, and suddenly received the news of Li Xian, the deputy general of the forbidden army, the second son Zhu Zaimo actually led people to impact the convoy escorting the Empress Dowager's birthday gift, Zhu Houjiong was scared into a cold sweat, but he got the exact news, the convoy not only has the Empress Dowager's birthday gift, is even escorting the property stolen from the Bai family, this thing can't be touched, it will kill people.

Zhu Houjiong was sweating profusely, now his top priority is to turn big things into small ones, he knows very well in his heart that the emperor must suspect this matter to his head, if he can't snuff out this idea from the emperor's heart, the Zhongshun Palace's mansion will be finished sooner or later.

After a stick of incense, Zhu Houjiong, the king of Zhongshun, and Zhu Zaimo, who had just been punished with forty sticks, came to the outside of the upper study to wait for the emperor's summons.

Looking at his son lying on the bench, Zhu Houjiong's heart ached, and a wave of anger rose from his heart, this group of damned eunuchs actually didn't give themselves face, they really finished forty sticks, and they couldn't get better in a month or two.

At this time, Dai Quan walked out and said in a loud voice: "Lord Zhongshun, please go back." ”

"Steward..."

Zhu Houjiong was anxious.

Dai Quan turned his gaze to Zhu Zaimo, and said slowly: "The son of the loyal and obedient king has no way, conniving at the family slaves to poison the people, and losing the face of the clan, Your Majesty said, let you go back to the house to study and cultivate your temperament, and wait until the birthday of the Queen Mother to enter the palace." ”

"Yes!"

Although Zhu Houjiong was embarrassed, he had to lead Zhu Zaimo to the noon gate stupidly.

Dai Quan then turned around and walked into the upper study.

Seeing Dai Quan walk in, Emperor Tianyou said coldly: "You say, did he hear the news, deliberately?" ”

Dai Quan turned around and poured a bowl of tea and put it on the imperial case, and replied: "The old slave heard that the brothers Jia Zhen and Jia Lian suffered a lot of losses at the hands of the second son. ”

The Jia family and the Zhongshun Palace's Qiu Manshenjing are known to everyone, after Jia Daishan's death, the Jia family has no backbone, and has been suppressed by the Zhongshun Palace's line in recent years.

Thinking of this, a hint of pride gradually flashed in Emperor Tianyou's eyes, and he muttered: "This kid is brave and strategic, but his position is too low." ”

Dai Quan, who was standing on the side, glanced at Emperor Tianyou silently, and understood that this emperor was going to push Jia Jue to the throne and fight in the ring with the King of Zhongshun to share the pressure from the court for himself.

Emperor Tianyou slammed the imperial case, "Wang Ziteng has served as the envoy of the Jingying Festival for so long and still hasn't been able to completely control the three major battalions, since he can't do it, I will find someone to help him, the three thousand battalions are the old battalions formed by the Jia family back then, and many people still call themselves the old department of the Jia family, which is an honor." Proposed purpose, Jin Jiaju as a general, commander of 3,000 battalions. ”

"Yes!"

Dai Quan bowed in response.

The forces of the Beijing camp are intricate, the five military camps are jointly controlled by the nobles and civil officials, the three thousand battalions are the sphere of influence of the Jia family, and the Shenji battalion is controlled by the king of Zhongshun.
