"The old minister retired."

The examination questions for the imperial examination were set, and there was nothing superfluous to discuss with Zhu Houzhao, so Liang Chu immediately bowed and left.

Zhu Houzhao, the emperor, is busy with affairs, and he is even busier with the secretary of the ministry, not only presiding over the scientific examination, but also distracting himself from handling various affairs of the ministry.

"Send Liang Aiqing out of the palace!"

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said suddenly.

Liang Chu left the leopard room with his front foot, and Liu Jin came to trouble again.

"Emperor, do you have something to ask for?"

looked at Zhu Houzhao with a blank look, his eyes were full of desire, this was the first time Liu Jin had shown such an appearance since following Zhu Houzhao.

"Just say anything, you should know that I don't like to sell guanzi."

"The slave maid recently received a righteous son, and the slave and maid are brave and beg His Majesty to give him a name."

Liu Jin was a little embarrassed and said, the eunuch took in his son, which is also an old tradition in the palace, hugging each other for warmth, and begging for something to rely on.

But the righteous son he accepted was not a little eunuch in the palace, but an orphan he picked up outside, and he was a father-in-law with a crippled body, no wonder with his cheekiness, there would be a trace of embarrassment.

"Yoshiko?"

Zhu Houzhao's face is strange, Liu Jin is really good at playing, but Liu Jin has followed him for so many years and has helped him do a lot of shady things, there is no merit and hard work, since he asks for it, this face still has to be given.

"Bring someone and let me see it."

"Slave and maid, go now."

Liu Jin's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly went to find his newly adopted son.

Soon, Liu Jin returned to Zhu Houzhao with a child about five years old.

I don't know where Liu Jin picked up this child, his face is yellow and thin, his bones are thin, and he is severely malnourished.

"Where did you get this kid?"

Zhu Houzhao's sword frowned slightly, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Five-year-olds end up on the streets, either as a result of family collapse or as a result of human traffickers.

The former is okay, there are a lot of tragedies in the world every day, and the collapse of a family causes children to become orphans and beggars, which is not a big deal.

If it's the latter, then it has to be dealt with seriously, traffickers, those bastards who have lost their conscience, will always be the most damned.

"When the slave was wandering around the capital some time ago, she accidentally met this kid, when he was being chased and beaten by the store for stealing a steamed bun, and the slave and maid relented for a while, so they brought him back."

Liu Jin has followed Zhu Houzhao for many years, so he naturally knows what Zhu Houzhao is thinking, and hurriedly explains the cause and effect of the matter clearly.

"The slave sent someone to check, this kid is the son of a merchant in the south of the city, his father died of illness not long ago, and his uncle occupied the family property, this kid has been reduced to the streets, and his background is absolutely innocent."

"No problem."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and asked, "Have you thought about it?" ”

"The slave and maid are crippled, and they are satisfied to have a righteous son."

Liu Jin smiled bitterly.

is already a eunuch, where does he have so many requirements, not to mention, from the first time he saw this child, he felt that he was destined for this child.

The word fate is wonderful, and since he intends to adopt this child as a righteous son, he will not regret it.

"Son, would you like to worship him as your father?"

Zhu Houxiong looked at the thin child and asked softly.

"Yes."

The thin child replied hurriedly, looked at Liu Jin with burning eyes, and fell to the ground solemnly: "Father-in-law, please bow to the child!" ”

Although he is young, he is precocious, understands right and wrong, good and evil, although Liu Jin is a eunuch, he is very good to him, following Liu Jin these days, eating and drinking, he has not treated him badly at all, and what reason does he have to refuse to worship Liu Jin as his father-in-law.

No matter what, it's better than him continuing to end up on the streets.

"Good good ......"

Liu Jin was overjoyed, and an old face smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum.

"You have pursued fame and fortune all your life, this child will be called Liu Lu in the future!"

Zhu Houzhao thought about it and gave the thin child the name Liu Lu.

"Thank you for your name."

Liu Jin patted the back of the child's head and shouted softly.

The child immediately reacted, and kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao to thank him like Liu Jin: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your name." ”

From then on, he was Liu Lu, Liu Jin's righteous son.

"Get up!"

Zhu Hou looked at Liu Lu's thin body and said meaningfully: "I look forward to your growth, don't let me down." ”

He gave Liu Lu the name "Lu", not only because Liu Jin pursued fame and fortune, but also hoped that this son could learn and become his "Qianniu Longwu General" in the future.

Even if they are notorious, they will not change their loyalty!

Hongwu World

"Superior, it has been found out, the crown prince's side concubine did misbehave,"

Mao Xiang's head was lowered, and his heart was raised to his throat, for fear that Lao Zhu would be unhappy, and his head would fall to the ground.

"Tell me, what kind of misdeeds she has."

Lao Zhu's tone was calm, but it contained an incomparably deep chill, which made Mao Xiang even more frightened.

Since learning that Zhu Xiongying will die early, Lao Zhu ordered Jinyi Wei to strictly investigate all suspicious people, and today, he has finally found a little eyebrows.

"According to the investigation ...... subordinates"

Mao Xiang was frightened and told Lao Zhu all the information he had found out without missing anything.

In her heart, she couldn't help but sigh that the Lu family was so bold that she secretly poisoned the emperor's eldest grandson, she was purely tired of being crooked, and she didn't want to live, didn't she know how important the emperor's eldest grandson occupied in the heart of the emperor and empress.

If the eldest grandson of the emperor has three long and two short, he can pierce the sky, how can she have so much courage as a little prince and concubine.

"Bastard ......"

After listening to Mao Xiang's report, Lao Zhu was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, his suspicions were indeed correct, the culprit of Zhu Xiongying's early death was the Lu family.

dared to poison his precious eldest grandson, Lu was looking for death.

At this moment, Lao Zhu has the heart of the Lu family.

"Send someone to arrest and detain all the Lu family's comrades, and dare to poison our eldest grandson, this poisonous woman can't stay."

Lao Zhu exuded a strong murderous aura, and he couldn't wait to immediately cut the Lu family with a thousand knives and divide the corpses of the five horses, but after all, the Lu family was Zhu Biao's side concubine, and how to deal with it still needed to be discussed with Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao is now also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he is no longer his obedient son, and many things must be grasped well, and Zhu Biao must not lose face.

"Yes."

After Mao Xiang left, Lao Zhu couldn't help but let out a long sigh, the Lu family secretly poisoned Zhu Xiongying, and he knew what crooked thoughts he had.

The royal family has no affection!

For the sake of that dragon chair poisoning his eldest grandson, the Lu family is playing with fire and self-immolation, this time he wants to kill, the Lu family will die, the Lu family will be destroyed, and the literati group will also be severely suppressed.

"I didn't expect the Lu family to have such vicious intentions, Xiongying is just a child, she can do it."

Queen Ma walked out from behind the screen, trembling with anger, she never dreamed that the usually gentle and docile Lu family would be so vicious that she would not even let go of a child.
