Outside the Yongding Gate, the mighty team could not see the end at a glance, and the car taken by the prince Zhu Wucheng gradually approached.

In the car, Zhu Wucheng sat with his eyes closed, his body swaying slightly with the wheels rolling.

Today's going to the Ruishi camp to observe the drill is a temporary decision, this is the emperor's will, plus he also wants to win over Jia Jue and maintain the relationship between the two sides, Zhu Wucheng had to make a little sacrifice, and rushed to the Ruishi camp in a very hurry, fortunately, the Ruishi camp is not far from Shenjing City, and it can be reached in less than half an hour.

Today's drill opened his eyes, and finally understood why the emperor wanted him to go to observe, after watching the drill of the Rui Shi Battalion, Zhu Wucheng was a little disdainful of the forbidden army, the two were not on the same level at all, if the two sides were in a field battle, the 30,000 Rui Shi Battalion could easily defeat the pampered hundreds of thousands of old soldiers, you know, they were all elites selected from the Nine Sides, and they had fallen to this point in just a few years!

In order to show his closeness with Jia Jue, Zhu Wucheng deliberately asked Jia Jue to lead his two hundred personal soldiers to guard the perimeter of the chariot, which is not only a trust, but also an honor.

This is the future emperor.

Jia Jue has not returned home for almost a month, during this time he put down his body and personally led the army to train, the effect is very significant, with his efforts, the army has become an army, as long as it is pulled out to fight a battle or two, it will be good to see blood.

Although he was very tired, Jia Jue still rode a horse in good spirits and followed the chariot, he was the same as two hundred personal soldiers, wearing armor and wearing a goose feather knife at his waist, after more than a month of wind and sun, the armor on his body has long been shiny, and even a little old, compared with the forbidden army with bright armor on the side, they are like a group of ragged beggars, but in terms of spirit, they absolutely crush those forbidden troops, as long as you look closely, you can find that those forbidden troops intentionally or unintentionally stay away from the chariot, They didn't dare to approach the Jia family's own soldiers who exuded murderous aura all over their bodies, these people had all followed Jia Jue to the battlefield and fought with the grassland people, not this group of pampered old soldiers could compare.

Zhu Wucheng sat in the car, kept looking around, he saw the cowardice of these forbidden troops in his eyes, and the murderous aura of these Jia family soldiers made him a little uneasy, thinking about the words of the second assistant Liu Wenbin in his heart, if the Royal Forest Army is like the Rui Shi Battalion, once something happens, the forbidden army will be vulnerable, the forbidden army has not seen blood for nearly 20 years, has not experienced a life-and-death battle, they have lost the courage to fight the enemy.

Liu Wenbin is right, although the forbidden army and the imperial forest army belong to the royal private army, but they are still very different, compared to the forbidden army firmly controlled by the emperor, most of the rights of the imperial forest army are controlled by the nobles, perhaps, it is time to consider in advance.

Zhu Wucheng's eyes fell on Jia Jue's body again, looking at him with some complicated feelings, Zhu Wucheng was very grateful to this former life-saving benefactor, but there was still a trace of indescribable discomfort, yes, it was uncomfortable, because he was not as loyal to himself as several other noble generals, and threw a solicitation to him as soon as he moved into the East Palace, but unfortunately, he still said that he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty the Emperor, this loyalty made him uncomfortable, but he also believed in Jia Jue even more, At least he was a staunch royalist.

At this time, he thought of Nan Zhili again, and regretted a little in his heart, he shouldn't have listened to Shoufu's persuasion, he was still too anxious.

As the emperor raised the butcher's knife in the capital, the king of Dongping County also cleaned up the big families in Suzhou and Hangzhou, no accident, the accident still happened, these big families were intertwined, and those tenant farmers attacked the government under the fan of these people, and there was a bloody conflict, although it was suppressed by the army, but it also caused chaos in the jurisdiction of Suzhou Prefecture.

There is also Yangzhou, the salt merchants do not dare to rebel, but they can make a stumbling block for the internal affairs government behind their backs, and it happens that there is a rainstorm that has not been encountered for decades, and the salt factory cannot produce salt.

Thinking of this, Zhu Wucheng had a headache, he also felt that he was getting more and more struggling, and he didn't know how his father had persevered over the years.

At this time, Jia Jue's voice came from the side, "Prince, Zhengyangmen has arrived." ”

Zhu Wucheng came back to his senses, his eyes first fell on the towering Zhengyangmen Tower, and then looked at Jia Jue, "Okay, the main palace will go back to the East Palace first, Zhongwubo has worked hard during this time, so take a good rest first." ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please go slowly!"

Jia Jue said goodbye to Zhu Wucheng and went directly to Xicheng, he has been away from home for almost a month....

Ningrong Street is now more lively than before, and the traders who do business are coming and going, and the front of the Jia's Sanfu is even more ushered in, and there is an endless stream of distinguished customers.

What is different from the past is that at this moment, there are not small servants standing in front of the three mansions, but ten soldiers in armor each.

These are all soldiers of the Ruishi battalion, because of the chaos of that night, all the families in Xicheng have become cautious, and if there are conditions, let their soldiers come to be on duty, and if they are unconditional, let the soldiers in the house be on duty in person.

Half an hour ago, an old man and a young ancestor and grandson came to Ningrong Street, the two of them were dressed as ordinary people, although the clothes were shabby, but the pulp was clean, and they came to the front of the Rongguo Mansion with a smile on their faces.

It was the famous Grandma Liu who came!

This Grandma Liu is an old widow who has accumulated years, and now she is living with her daughter and son-in-law, there is a little grandson called Ban'er, a family of four guards a few acres of land, and harvests the harvest all year round, just enough to eat half of it, who wants to think that last year's month of wax fell several heavy snows one after another, and the family house collapsed most of it, this is not the family to save all the money saved to repair the house, but also pulled down a lot of deficits, seeing that the days are getting more and more difficult, the son-in-law then remembered the relatives who have not moved for many years, after a struggle, Grandma Liu led her grandson Ban'er into the city and came to Ningrong Street.

She, a rural woman, had never seen such a scene, and had been hesitating on the street for most of the hour, "Grandma, I'm hungry!" Ban'er looked at the steaming buns on the hawker stall.

With a heart, Grandma Liu ran to the gate and kowtowed to the sentry guards: "Give blessings to the soldiers!" ”

The officer who led the team came over, looked at her, and saw that she was in shabby clothes, so he waved his hand and said, "Beg aside, don't interfere with our military affairs here!" ”

As he spoke, he patted the saber hanging from his waist.

Grandma Liu was helpless, so she had to say again: "Please this military master, may I ask if this is the Jia family of Rongguo Mansion?" ”

The officer glanced at her, "Not bad! If you are looking for someone, go to the side and wait, and when there will be a steward or a servant come out, you will come back, and now retreat to the side. ”

Small kiosk app

"Da!"

"Da! Da! ”

At this moment, a group of heavily armed cavalry rushed over in the distance, and two hundred personal soldiers escorted Jia Jue to come.

"The handsome man is back home, quickly retreat to the side!"

Listening to the shouts in his ears, Jia Jue's heart calmed down, and suddenly, he found an old man and a young man standing in the corner of Rongguo Mansion, glanced at it curiously, looked at the old woman's panicked appearance, and couldn't help but hold the reins, and the officer hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Handsome!" ”

"Who are they? Why are you standing at the door of the Rong Mansion? ”

The officer quickly ran to inquire, and came back in a moment to report, "Dashuai, they are relatives of the second wife's family in the Rong Mansion, and they are here to find the second wife." ”

At this time, Jia Jue rode to them, and Grandma Liu hurriedly pulled the board and knelt on the ground, "Give Uncle Nafu!" ”

"Huh! Are you here to find the second wife? ”

"If you go back to the uncle, we are here to find the second wife of the house."

"Get up, you don't have to be so polite."

Jia Jue turned to the officer and said, "Go and call the stewards and ask him to lead them to Zhou Rui's house." ”

Hearing this, Grandma Liu hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her, and said, "Thank you, uncle, thank you, uncle....."

Jia Jue nodded, "The old man can just wait here with peace of mind." ”
