The matter of the two Huai Yan Zheng has basically come to an end, and this open and secret battle seems to have the upper hand in Jiangxia on the surface. But in fact, it didn't deal much blow to Liu Jin, it just disintegrated the forces he cultivated in the Lianghuai Salt Administration and cut off a financial route for him.

Next, Jiang Xia accompanied Zhu Houzhao and Li Feng, who had just been brought to Yangzhou, to play in Yangzhou for a few days, and then Zhu Houzhao decided to leave Yangzhou first. Because it will not be long before Yin Renmian, who pretends to be Zhu Houzhao, will tour the south here, if he is not careful, Zhu Houzhao is likely to be exposed.

When the time comes, Li Feng will know Zhu Houzhao's true identity, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the two of them to recover their glue-like appearance like now.

Since Zhu Houzhao decided to leave, Jiang Xia had no choice but to follow him. Jiang Xia Tiyì rushed back from No. 6 this time, first went to Chaling Prefecture, Changsha Prefecture, Huguang to meet Master Li Dongyang, and then went north to return to Beijing.

Li Dongyang is not only Jiang Xia's master, but also Zhu Houzhao's master, so Jiang Xia's mention of Zhu Houzhao agreed as soon as he heard it.

If you want to leave secretly, Zhu Houzhao has no problem not greeting anyone, but he can't help but greet Yang Tinghe.

I don't know what method Zhu Houzhao used to persuade Yang Tinghe, and finally Yang Tinghe promised Zhu Houzhao to assist in pretending to be Yin Renmian who came to worship to complete the sacrifice, and then follow the southern tour team back to Beijing together.

Without Yang Tinghe's obstruction, Zhu Houzhao immediately urged Jiangxia and them to set off.

From Yangzhou to Changsha, it is not far away, but it is not close, Jiangxia and they are the same as when they came, and they are also escorted by Bu Jinyun, Yu Ren, Ma Yunfeng, Qian Juexing, Su Meiniang, Zhong Bin, and Han Mufeng, but this time there is one more person, and the ghost has three needles.

The route design of Jiangxia is that they plan to go to Nanjing first, greet Aunt Qin and them, then go to Luyang, then go all the way west to Xianning, and finally arrive in Changsha.

Zhu Houzhao and his party temporarily separated after they arrived in Nanjing, and the three of them, Ghost Sanzhen, Zhu Houzhao and Li Feng went to say goodbye to Aunt Qin and them, while Jiang Xia and the others were temporarily waiting in the Shunfeng Inn in Nanjing.

When it was approaching dusk, Jiang Xia sat alone on the second floor of the Shunfeng Inn drinking tea, thinking about a lot of things in his mind.

This time I came to Yangzhou, originally to rectify the two Huai salt politics and rescue Yin Tianhao, who was imprisoned. These two things have been completed, and the two Huai Yanzheng are now controlled by Jiang Xiajiao's people, and Yin Tianhao was also released as early as the day Zhu Houzhao arrived in Yangzhou, and was released back to Jingshi first.

But when he came out this time, Jiang Xia knew Zhu Houzhao's secret, which made Jiang Xia feel that he seemed to be stepping into another overall situation.

Zhu Houzhao is not the Empress Dowager Cishou's own child, and at the same time, Zhu Houzhao's long-term consumption of cloud cakes has the poison of the Absolute Grass, and the cloud cakes have always been made by the Empress Dowager Cishou for Zhu Houzhao to eat, so the Empress Dowager Cishou is likely to be the one who poisoned her.

Jiang Xia carefully recalled the many historical events of the Ming Dynasty, to be honest, he was not very familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, because he studied history only to facilitate the identification of the antique calligraphy and paintings of that dynasty, and he had never studied history systematically, so the events he knew were very fragmentary.

Jiang Xia remembered that in the normal trajectory of history, Zhu Houzhao would die in the sixteenth year of Zhengde, and then Zhu Houxi, the second son of King Xingxian, ascended the throne with the support of the Empress Dowager and Yang Tinghe.

At this point, Jiang Xia didn't feel anything in the past, but since he came to Daming, Jiang Xia felt a little unreasonable after learning about Daming.

After Zhu Houzhao's death, in fact, you can consider setting up Zhu Houye, the eldest son of Zhu Youbin, or Zhu Houxuan, the eldest son of Zhu Youbin, who is much older, and you can even consider establishing Zhu Zai, the grandson of Yiwang, as the prince to succeed Wuzong!

But the Empress Dowager Cishou chose Zhu Houxi, who was only fifteen years old at the time, and Jiang Xia was a little skeptical when she thought about it at this moment, did the Empress Dowager want to choose the young master, so that she could train her behind the curtain so that she could take charge of the government by herself?

Was there a plan on the part of the Empress Dowager Cishou, and was the death of the second child really an accident or a conspiracy? Jiang Xia was a little puzzled for a while. He pinched the teacup, and secretly decided in his heart that he must investigate these things clearly, and he would never let the second child die in vain.

Jiang Xia had just finished thinking about it when he heard another footsteps, he subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the staircase, and the person who showed up made him slightly frightened, it was Liu Jin

Liu Jin walked up to the second floor alone, then walked to Jiang Xia's table, and sat in front of Jiang Xia without asking Jiang Xia if he agreed.

Liu Jin looked at Jiang Xia for a while, and then said with a smile: "Lord Jiang is a good means." ”

Jiang Xia smiled slightly and said, "It's far worse than my father-in-law, if it's not for luck, I'm afraid that my father-in-law will kill me with a corpse rot needle." ”

Liu Jin sneered, and his eyes suddenly became fierce: "Jiang Xia, you are very good, you dare to go against the miscellaneous family." ”

Jiang Xia picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, and then said lightly: "Father-in-law, you are mistaken, I never thought of going against you from beginning to end, but you tried to deal with me several times, and I was just forced to fight back." ”

"Forced to fight back?" Liu Jin laughed contemptuously: "If you are forced to fight back, the miscellaneous family will sue you today." You Jiang Xia want to fight with me Liu Jin, you are not qualified enough, I will let you be proud for two days, you watch, it won't be long before I will crush you like an ant!"

Jiang Xia smiled indifferently and said, "Actually, many times I have a question that I can't figure out, and I have always wanted to ask my father-in-law for advice. You said that you are already a eunuch, why do you fight this and that all day long? You can't bring it with you in life, and you can't bring it with you in death. Why don't you think about doing more good deeds and accumulating some yin virtues, so that you can be a normal man in the next life? Otherwise, with the sins you have created now, it is a matter of whether you can be a human being in the next life. Even if you can be a man, I'm afraid you will still be a dead eunuch. Even if you are not a eunuch, I am afraid that giving birth to a son is also a eunuch. ”

"Jiang Xia!" Liu Jin was furious, and slammed his palm on the table, and the table split in all directions.

Jiang Xia stood still, still holding the teacup in his hand.

He looked up at Liu Jin and said with a smile: "If I had such good martial arts as you, I wouldn't slap the table, I would slap you to death with one palm, just like slapping a mosquito to death."

But I know that you don't dare to slap me to death, because you are afraid that I will dare to kill you, because I and the second brother are brothers, and you dare not kill me, because you are just a slave of my second child. ”

After Jiang Xia finished speaking, he drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, and then threw the teacup on the ground.

Jiang Xia got up and walked to the staircase, and Bu Jinyun and the others, who rushed to hear the sound, had already arrived at this moment. Jiang Xia waved his hand at them, and then walked down the stairs.

Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief at the moment he turned down the stairs, in fact, he was not afraid of it at all in his heart, it was a lie, he clearly saw that Liu Jin's right hand had begun to tremble just now, I am afraid that he had reached the critical point of exploding at that time.

Although Jiang Xia didn't know what level Liu Jin's martial arts had reached, he was sure that it would be easy to kill him with Liu Jin's martial arts.

However, Jiang Xia really did not miscalculate, Liu Jin did not dare to do anything to him in Nanjing.

After walking out of the Shunfeng Inn, Jiang Xia sighed slightly, because from today onwards, he and Liu Jin were considered to have completely torn their faces, and they had reached a situation where they would never die.

Leaving the Phoenix Theater.

Feng Chaohuang was invited to perform by the Lihuang Theater, and Zhu Houzhao, Ghost Sanzhen and Li Feng said goodbye to Aunt Qin, Qin'er and others and left the theater.

After bidding farewell to the three of them, Aunt Qin returned to the study and took out a pen and paper as if she was about to write a letter.

After thinking for a while, Aunt Qin wrote in beautiful lines: "My lord: 'Qin Si has already determined that the person he met before is the current emperor. Now that the emperor and the junior brother of the king of the hundred herbs, the ghost three needles, if Qin Si is not bad, I am afraid that the emperor will know about the Absolute Grass.

Now the emperor conceals his identity and falls in love with Li Feng, if there is no accident, the emperor will return to Beijing next. Qin Si should act next, and ask the Lord to make it clear. ’”

After writing, Qin Si called Qin'er to hand over the letter in his hand to her: "Qin'er, send this letter to the Jingshi and hand it to the master, and you can only come back after receiving the master's instructions."

"Yes, Qin'er understands. After speaking, Qin'er exited Qin Si's room.

After Zhu Houzhao, Li Feng, and Ghost Sanzhen returned to the Shunfeng Inn, they stayed at the Shunfeng Inn for one night, and Zhu Houzhao went out together the next morning.

Because Zhu Houzhao felt sorry for Li Feng, Jiang Xia specially prepared a carriage for him and Li Feng, and Leng Yu and Han Mufeng drove them respectively.

The rest, like Jiangxia, rode horses, which made it easy to walk and guard the carriage.

To be honest, walking 6 is far inferior to the waterway in terms of degree and comfort. But the last time after the boat encirclement incident, Jiang Xia felt that Route 6 was much safer. At least if something happens, there is still a chance to fight or escape.

On the surface of the river, which is surrounded by water on all sides, I am afraid that if I am surrounded, I will not even know where to run. Fortunately, the last time he was besieged was at night, and Jiang Xia Liuzhi had a good idea of the opportunity earlier, otherwise I am afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable.

Jiangxia and his party drove for a few days to arrive in Luyang, which is today's Hefei. This place still belongs to the scope of Nanzhili, so after everyone arrived in Luyang, they also received the news of the "current emperor" traveling south to Nanjing.

That night, Jiang Xia and his party settled in an inn in Changshun County, Luzhou Prefecture. In the middle of the night, Zhengxiang, who was sleeping in the third watch of Jiangxia, suddenly heard her door being pushed open.

Jiang Xia woke up immediately, he was silent, wanting to see what the people wanted to do.

Who knew that Jiang Xia heard the footsteps and felt that the person was tiptoeing towards him.

Jiang Xia secretly took out the short sword he had hidden under the pillow, and then suddenly burst into a rage, grabbed the person and pressed it on the bed.

Through the moonlight shining in from the window, Jiang Xia only realized that it was Zhu Houzhao who sneaked into his house in the middle of the night.

Not a killer, Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

But then Jiang Xia's whole body tensed, and his cold hair stood up.

This Zhu Houzhao didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and sneaked into his room to do what he wanted? This dead back didn't want to throw soap for me to pick up, right?
