As soon as Gu Xingnian's birthday passed, March was ushered in.

On the second day of the new year, the black armor guards arrived in the capital all the way.

Dressed in black armor and wearing masks, they did not slow down at all when they saw the city gate not far away.

The guards at the city gate saw them from afar and hurriedly sent a message to the guards below.

As soon as the guards at the gate of the city heard that the black guards were about to arrive, they hurriedly commanded the others, "Hurry up, a few of you move the horses away, and the rest of the people who enter the city let all the people who enter the city get aside." ”

They moved quickly, and in a short time moved the horses out of the way, and armed with spears, to move the people who were lining up to enter the capital to the side.

A scholar who had just come to the capital tilted his head and looked at the black armor guard who was riding into Beijing, a little curious, "Who are these people?" Why don't they go into town and check the wayboards? ”

This kind of question, every time the black armor guard enters the city, someone will always ask it, which is not taboo, but the black armor guard is too terrifying to the outside, and some people only answer it in a short sentence.

"The black armor guard doesn't need to be interrogated when he enters Beijing."

The person who asked the question suddenly turned pale when he heard the black armor.

He also knows the "prestige" of the Black Armor Guard.

Qin Zheng went straight to the palace after they entered Beijing, and the eyeliners of the various families in the capital also hurriedly sent a message back after they entered Beijing, but in an instant, the news of the return of the black armor guard to Beijing spread throughout the capital.

Horses are not allowed in the palace, and Qin Zheng and his party stopped after arriving at the gate of the palace.

The guards at the gate of the palace had already arranged for the eunuchs to wait on the side, and after they dismounted, the eunuchs took the horses away, and Qin Zheng and them entered the palace and went straight to the Taiji Hall to meet Emperor Jingyong.

Fusheng is the confidant eunuch of Emperor Jingyong, and he is guarding the gate of the Taiji Palace, Seeing Qin Zheng and them coming, he raised his eyes and looked at them twice.

Gu Qinhan was not there, and Fusheng's heart tightened when he found this, and when he thought of the gloomy face of the saint, he didn't dare to gasp.

Qin Zheng has always been respectful to Fusheng, and when he saw him waiting at the door, he bowed his hand, "Father-in-law Fusheng." ”

Fusheng bowed slightly, turned around and pushed open the door of the Taiji Hall, "Your Majesty has already instructed our family, Deputy Commander Qin, to go in." ”

Qin Zheng nodded, and led Mu Yi and Mu Er in, as for the others, they were naturally waiting outside the hall.

Mu Si looked at the door that was closed again, his thin lips pursed lightly, the things that Gu Su gave him that day were all on him, and he didn't tell Mu Yi about them.

It's not that he can't believe it, it's just that he promised Gu Su's family, and the news of Commander Gu will only tell the saint, He has a loose temperament and looks very unreliable, but he has always done what he says.

The Black Armor Guards are the emperor's own army, the number is not fixed, and the residence is also outside the palace, but they are different.

There are a total of ten people in their "wood" character army, all of whom are fatherless and motherless people, selected from the people, and through teaching and selection at all levels, they have become the guards of the Son of Heaven.

Later, for some reason, the saint arranged a competition, and moved the last ten of their dragon guards to the black armor guard, directly under Gu Qinhan, and gave "Mu" as the surname, according to the original ranking order.

And because of this, their "wooden" character army also has a place to live in the palace, which is in Gu Qinhan's palace.

Yes, Gu Qinhan, like the prince who has not left the palace, has a separate palace as a residence in the palace.

Don't ask why, it's the favor of the saints.

When the scorching sun was over, Mu Si stood straight, and at the same time, Concubine De, the biological mother of the four princes, came slowly.

Concubine De had already received the news, and this time she came to inquire about it, she stopped at the door of the Taiji Hall and quietly glanced at the black armor guard.

"The weather is hot, this palace specially stewed Gu lotus seed lily soup, and it was troublesome for my father-in-law to spread it."

Concubine De didn't want to offend this floating life, she smiled lightly, and as soon as the words fell, the big palace maid Hong Ying next to her took out a purse from her sleeve and handed it over.

Fusheng smiled, but he didn't answer, "Niangniang is polite, but the saint will not be idle, do you think you want to go to the side hall to rest, and when the saint is empty, let's go in and ask?" ”

As he spoke, there was a sound of a heavy object falling inside, as if someone had been smashed inside.

Concubine De's heart moved slightly, "Since Your Majesty is not empty, the palace still doesn't bother, only trouble your father-in-law, and help send this soup to Your Majesty." ”

It is not uncommon for harem concubines to come to Taiji Hall to send food, Fusheng changed the dust in his hand to one side, and the little eunuch on the side hurriedly stepped forward and took the food box from the hands of another palace maid of Concubine De.

Those who want to know already know that Concubine De did not stop, turned around and walked towards her palace.

It's just that she walked very slowly, and it took a long time to reach the corner, and it was at this time that Emperor Jingyong's voice came from inside.

"The black armor guard is not in a good position, and Qin Zheng and the "wood" character army and others are escorted down, and the major forty boards are not allowed to be healed. ”

The corners of Concubine De's mouth curled up and strode away.

These forty boards are not merciful at all, but fortunately, Qin Zheng and they have practiced martial arts all year round, and their bodies are strong, and they can still support each other back to their residence after being beaten.

Only Mu Shi, whose face was pale, was carried back on a stretcher by the little eunuch.

Emperor Jingyong ordered that the imperial doctor should not be allowed to treat them, which sounded like he was completely disgusted, but everyone who knew knew that Mu Shi of the Black Armor Guard was a registered disciple of Changxian Jun, and their residence was the most lacking in good medicine.

At night, Mu Si lay on the bed and watched through the window as the lights in the other rooms went out one by one.

Chang Xianjun's medicine has an excellent effect, and the wound on his buttocks has scabbed, Mu Si pursed his lips, and waited tightly for a while, and only when the dark clouds covered the moon and there was silence in all directions, he got up.

"Shhh

It was false to say that the wound would not hurt, but this matter could not be delayed, Mu Siqiang endured the pain, put on his coat, and tiptoed out.

He didn't go directly to the Taiji Palace, but went to find Long Xiaowei's people, and through Long Xiaowei's hands, he avoided his ears and eyes, and successfully arrived at the Taiji Palace.

Emperor Jingyong is now seventy-seven out of fifty, so he is naturally not very keen on women, and if he goes to the harem, he also goes to the queen to rest.

Although it was late at night, Emperor Jing Yong did not fall asleep, but was still reviewing the folds, when Long Xiaowei's Ba Mian found Fusheng, and when Mu Si of the Black Armor Guard had something important to see, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately asked Fusheng to bring people in.

Mu Si endured the pain and knelt down, "Humble duty is seen by the saint." ”

Emperor Jingyong sat on the top seat, with a solemn face, looking at Mu Si condescendingly.

"Why are you here?"

"I am under the order of the Commander Gu, and I have come to report peace to the saint, so as not to worry about the saint."

Emperor Jingyong was stunned, "Is this true?" ”

Mu Si hurriedly took out Gu Qinhan's token and held it with both hands.

Fusheng quickly took it and handed it to Emperor Jingyong, "Your Majesty." ”

Gu Qinhan's token, Emperor Jingyong naturally recognized, after all, without his consent, how could there be a dragon pattern on the token.

Emperor Jingyong only glanced at it, and then believed Mu Si's words, he took the token in his hand, "You go out, don't let others get close to the palace gate." ”

Fusheng has served Emperor Jingyong for more than 20 years, and he can be regarded as having figured out Emperor Jingyong's character, and when he said this, he knew in his heart that he couldn't fake it.

Therefore, the news that Gu Qinhan is missing and his life and death are unknown is false.

Those princes, they...

Fusheng was shocked in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and silently retreated.

The door was shut, and he looked up at the crescent moon that was obscured by dark clouds.

On this day, things are going to change.
