As night fell, darkness covered the land, and sinful, unsightly things began to grow.

It was raining again in the sky.

This year's rain seems to be particularly abundant.

In the Forbidden City, the Huanyi Bureau is located in an inconspicuous corner.

At this time, the Huanyi Bureau had finished the day's work, empty, and there was no one.

Only a small room was still lit with a little spark

Zhou Ji's eyes showed a fierce light: "Today outside, I was beaten by a crazy old man." ”

"Who is so bold to dare to beat our precious son of Jiang Xiahou?"

The woman's hand swept over Zhou Ji's face and spoke lightly.

"Humph!"

Zhou Ji snorted coldly: "I don't care who he is, if he dares to beat me Zhou Ji, I will let him die!" ”

"Lord—"

The owner of those eyes held a picture book in his arms, and recorded everything that happened in the house, not a single drop......

……

Inside the Imperial Study.

Zhu Yuanzhang was still picking up the lamp and flipping through the folds.

Since the crown prince Zhu Biao left, all the major things have been pressed on this gray-haired old man.

He thought about taking Huang Xiongying to a place tomorrow, so he had to deal with these things tonight, so he could let go of this heart.

At this time, Jiang Zhen came in.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't raise his eyelids and asked, "Have you checked it out?" ”

"Got it checked!"

Jiang Zhen bowed down and replied respectfully.

Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang put down his fold and looked at Jiang Xuan: "Say." ”

Jiang Zhen raised his head slightly, and replied respectfully: "Zhou Ji did have dealings with the female officials of the Huanyi Bureau, this is what has just been recorded by the humble position, Your Majesty, please take a look." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang took the painting book, looked at it twice, and threw it on the ground.

"Zhou Dexing, Zhou Dexing, you have raised a good son!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was expressionless, but his eyes were very terrifying, and a big hand subconsciously touched his waist, which was the position of the old man's previous saber.

Jiang Zhen knew that the old man was going to kill someone.

When he was still following Mao Xiang (the first commander of the Jinyi Guard), this was the action when the old man was killing Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong.

Zhu Yuanzhang took a breath and said, "Jiang Xuan, this matter must not be leaked, understand?" ”

"Humble duty understands!"

Jiang Zhen hurriedly replied.

How could he not understand that the matter of the palace has always been a royal taboo.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and continued: "That dog thing let him live for another two days first, no one is allowed to move without our order, go down." ”

"Retire from your duties!"

Jiang Zhen was slightly stunned and hurriedly retired.

According to the old man's previous character, it is time to arrest that Zhou Ji and send him to prison for strict trial.

Leave him alive for two days?

It seems to have something to do with the young man outside the palace......

Jiang Xuan thought in his heart, but he didn't dare to say a word, didn't dare to ask......

……

At this time, the lights in the East Palace were still on.

"Mother, the imperial grandfather said that he was not available......"

Zhu Yunwen came back with a bowl of noodles and looked cautiously at his mother Lu Shi, who looked displeased.

"You ......"

Lu Shi just wanted to scold, but looking at the face in Zhu Yunwen's hand, which was about to turn cold, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Put it down first, come here, my mother has something to say to you." ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Yunwen nodded obediently, and then put down the noodles in his hand.

Lu Shi looked at his son, who had grown up, sighed lightly, and pulled Zhu Yunwen to his side and sat down.

"Do you think it's annoying for us to let you go and deliver noodles to your imperial grandfather every day?"

Zhu Yunwen lowered his head slightly and did not speak.

"If you don't say it, we know."

Lu Shi said to himself: "We know that you are a good boy, and when you are young, you only know how to treat people sincerely, and you will not flatter someone with flattery, including your imperial grandfather, but do you know? ”

"After your father is gone, we are the only ones who can rely on each other in this world, and we can only rely on you from now on, you have to be your mother's backer like your father, understand?"

Zhu Yunwen secretly clenched his fists and nodded.

Lu Shi said quietly: "Son, since ancient times, it is the most ruthless emperor's family, if you don't fight for us, in this palace in the future, there will be no place for our mother and mother to stand!" ”

"Your father is the crown prince, and you are the eldest son of the crown prince, Emperor Ming Zuxun, you are the most legitimate heir of the Ming Dynasty!"

"That position is yours, if you lose it, your father will not be blind under the Nine Springs! Got it? ”

Zhu Yunwen raised his head, with tears in his eyes: "Mother, the children you said know everything, but ......"

Zhu Yunwen wiped her tears.

"However, the imperial grandfather doesn't know what's going on lately, and the child always feels that the imperial grandfather has changed, and it's different from before......"

As he spoke, Zhu Yunwen sobbed slightly.

Before these days, he had always been the old man's favorite of the heart.

Almost every day, the emperor's grandfather had to summon him once to personally ask him about his homework and teach him how to behave in the world.

But now......

Not only did the imperial grandfather not summon him, but he sent him over again and again, but he was also refused.

It was as if those graces had disappeared overnight.

How does this make him not aggrieved?

Coupled with Lu Shi's words, Zhu Yunwen's grievances suddenly turned into tears and flowed down.

"Mother, it's so difficult, the child doesn't know what to do......"

The more Zhu Yunwen spoke, the more aggrieved he became, and tears flowed down his eyes.

Lu Shi straightened Zhu Yunwen's slightly bent body, and said sharply: "What do you look like crying?" You are now a man, your mother's only support, cheer up! ”

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, he wiped his tears with his sleeve and tried his best to control himself from sobbing.

But the physiological reaction still made him can't help but twitch and twitch.

Lu Shi saw it in his eyes, and his heart tingled, and he sighed: "Son, you can't lose your heart with a little setback, do you know that we are not idle these days." ”

"Mother, you ......"

Zhu Yunwen raised his head and looked at the Lu family.

Lu Shi lowered his voice and said: "We got the news, your imperial grandfather has been running to a mansion on the edge of the Qinhuai River whenever he has free time these days. ”

"Who could that be?"

Zhu Yunwen showed a puzzled look.

Lu Shi shook his head slightly: "My mother doesn't know for the time being, my mother has been thinking about it for the past two days, but she has never been able to figure it out, so we have to find a chance to take a look." ”

Zhu Yunwen nodded silently.

Lu touched Zhu Yunwen's head lovingly, and finally smiled:

"Son, although you can rest assured and bold to do what you should do, to fight for what belongs to you, you don't have to worry about the rest, my mother will always support you behind you!"

"Mother......

Zhu Yunwen shouted and threw himself into Lu's arms......

……

The next morning, the sky cleared.

In the morning after the rain, the air is exceptionally fresh.

No matter how late he slept last night, Zhu Yuanzhang always got up on time.

After dealing with a night's twists and turns last night, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, which had become a little cloudy at the moment, were covered with thin blood lines.

Take a few deep breaths of air.

Zhu Yuanzhang's spirit seems to be very good.

got into the carriage prepared in the palace and went to the bank of the Qinhuai River.

When he used to go, he liked to walk.

In this life, he didn't know how many roads he walked, the road he walked to herd cattle, the road he walked to beg, the road he walked to turn into a relationship, and the road he walked to fight......

I can't count them.

He likes to walk, but today he unexpectedly got into a carriage.

Because he wants to take his eldest grandson to a place......
