Chapter 162: Palace Assassin

After the "Hongmen Banquet", Zhu Zhishu was escorted to Beijing, and more than a dozen county kings and generals were arrested, and their lives and deaths are unknown!

The other Zhu clan relatives have finally shrunk in the mansion!

Even if it is the lively Chinese New Year's Eve and New Year, they are closed!

On days when there are no enemies, it always feels like something is missing!

The days are muddy!

We can't sink like this!

Therefore, take Liu Ruyan to visit Dujiangyan, climb Qingcheng Mountain, and then go to Mount Emei to see the sunrise, life is still colorful!

Wang Li traveled everywhere, but Zhu Youzhen in the capital city did not relax at all!

"Long live the lord, the king of Shu who led the army to attack the Admiral's Mansion has been escorted back to Beijing, what should be done?"

Zhu Youzhen didn't seem to hear it, and his eyes closed slightly: "Have you asked the factory public about the appointment and dismissal of individual personnel in the court?" Does he have an opinion? ”

"That list, the little slave has already shown the factory public, and he has not expressed his opinion! But ......"

Wang Chengen hesitated a little and said tentatively: "

Regarding the new positions of Chen Qiyu, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting and others, the factory did not express an opinion;

However, the factory believes that Sun Gelao's resignation as secretary of the military department is slightly inappropriate;

Also, the factory gong means...... Bi Ziyan's resignation as the head of the household department is also a little inappropriate;

In addition, Xiong Wencan's promotion to the governor of Liangguang and Guangzhou, the opposition of the factory was a little fierce! ”

"Oh?"

Zhu Youzhen opened his eyes suddenly, puzzled.

Because......

The rebellion of several county kings and generals some time ago, as well as Zhu Zhishu's rebellion this time, the real reason may still need to be verified;

Whether Wang Li is corrupt in Sichuan, and how much he is corrupt, Zhu Youzhen is not very concerned;

Regarding Sichuan's achievements in changing the law, Zhu Youzhen is still quite sure and has high hopes;

What he is most worried about is that Wang Li is interested in "power"!

In the second half of last year, the main personnel appointments and dismissals in the imperial court made Wang Li express his opinion, which was actually a test!

Sun Chengzong, I have a lot of dealings with him!

Sun Chengzong's resignation, he showed regret, which is reasonable!

However, Bi Ziyan once stumbled on him with Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru;

Bi Ziyan's resignation, he also showed regret?

Xiong Wencan, who had the best relationship with him, was promoted to the governor of Liangguang, why did he fiercely oppose it?

That's a little weird!

"Xiong Wencan's promotion, why does the factory boss oppose it?"

"This ...... When the little slave asked, the factory man did not elaborate;

He just said...... Governor Xiong is a little ambitious, a little unworthy of his name, a little ...... A little bit of a face-lover, a little bit of bragging......"

Wang Chengen's answer, Zhu Youzhen breathed a sigh of relief!

It seems that Wang Li is against Xiong Wencan's promotion from the bottom of his heart!

At the beginning, it was he who suggested that the five provinces be under unified command!

The appointment of Chen Qiyu as the governor of the five provinces did not promote his brother Hong Chengchou, he really did not object?

From this point of view, he has no intention of forming a gang!

He may not be interested in power!

Perhaps, it is not interested for the time being!

At least for now, it can be trusted and reused!

As for Zhu Zhishu, trying to kill the Governor of Xichang and the eunuchs of the celebrant eunuchs, and commanding the kings from all walks of life to attack the Governor's Mansion, it is really a great crime of rebellion, the evidence is conclusive, and the nine clans should be punished!

But, after all, he is my imperial uncle!

If the same clan kills each other, how to explain to the ancestors and ancestors when they come to the Nine Springs in the future?

That's it!

"The rebellion of the King of Shu does not need to be investigated!

Zhu Zhishu, imprisoned for his crimes, will never be pardoned;

The county kings, generals, and guests of honor who participated in the rebellion were all demoted to the rank of commoners......"

Zhu Youzhen's leniency, Wang Chengen was slightly dissatisfied!

Just as I was trying to persuade, I hurried over!

"Oh no...... Oh no...... Hooray...... The two princes and princesses...... By...... Kidnapped by the Assassins......"

"Thorn ...... Assassin? ”

Zhu Youzhen bounced up and shouted: "All the doors of the Beijing Division are immediately under martial law!" Seal off all the main roads!

The loyal and brave battalion will enter the palace immediately, and the safety of all palaces and halls must be guaranteed!

Immediately send out the cavalry battalion and hunt down the whole city!

At all costs, be sure to save the prince and princess! ”

After the order was given, Zhu Youzhen felt frightened, and his face was pale!

The Zhongyong Battalion is the palace forbidden army formed by Cao Huachun in the second year after Zhu Youzhen's accession to the throne, which is mainly responsible for the security of the imperial city;

The Xiao Cavalry Battalion is a newly built ironclad cavalry in September last year, formed by the war horses sent back by Cao Wenzhao, and is mainly used for patrol and vigilance tasks in the Beijing Division.

These two battalions, with a strength of 10,000 troops, are only under Zhu Youzhen's orders!

However, the two forbidden troops searched all night in a carpet manner, but there was no news!

"Queen Mother, how many assassins are there who infiltrated Kunning Palace?

Can you see their faces?

What is the exact body shape? ”

"The Queen, according to the maidservant Cuckoo, the assassin spoke to you when he left?

What is the Assassin's accent? What exactly did you say? ”

Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun were so anxious that they stomped their feet, but Queen Zhou looked indifferent.

Zhu Youzhen was about to ask, but Queen Zhou asked softly: "Now, what time is it?" ”

"Uh...... Just past ......"

"Now that the time has come, you can send someone to the land temple north of Tongzhou Mansion, Ci Hong and Ci Jiong should be there!"

"The Emperor...... The Queen's ......"

"No more!"

Empress Zhou wiped the corners of her eyes and said calmly: "At that time, the assassins who broke into Kunning Palace were two people, masked, and they couldn't see their faces clearly!"

An hour ago, another assassin infiltrated Kunning Palace and left a note! ”

"Word ...... Note? What note?

An hour ago?

Why tell me now? ”

"Minister...... Concubines...... Only after the time has passed, the concubines dare to take it out...... Otherwise...... Princes and princesses...... Probably his life will not be saved......"

Before the words fell, Zhu Youzhen snatched the note.

After reading it, I was so angry that I trembled!

This assassin is too arrogant!

Dare to threaten the queen!

Dare to provoke the Loyal Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion!

Dare to say that today, seven years later, I will return the princess in person!

Zhu Youzhen trembled with anger, but there was nothing he could do: "Send someone to Tongzhou immediately!" Be sure to pick up the prince and princess!

If you see an Assassin, shoot or kill! ”

"No!"

……

This time the assassin is simply bold!

In the land temple north of Tongzhou, Zhu Cihong and Zhu Cijiong were found unharmed!

The kidnapped princess of Kunxing, Zhu Huijiao, is still missing!

The Land Temple, no trace was left!

The news came back to Jingshi, and Zhu Youzhen gave up completely!

I thought that under the pursuit of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, the assassins would be trapped in the Jingshi!

Who knows, the assassin actually took his three children and quietly left the city!

Not only did he go to Tongzhou, which was dozens of miles away, but he also dared to leave a note!

From this point of view, it is definitely difficult to find the trace of Princess Kunxing!

Alas!

The assassin can release Zhu Cihong and Zhu Cijiong, it should not hurt Zhu Huijiao!

I only hope that the Assassins will keep their promises!

On the twenty-fifth day of the first month seven years later, the princess will be returned!

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen and Queen Zhou were full of sadness.

At this moment, on the Grand Canal, a hundred miles away, several merchant ships are going downstream.

On the bow of the boat, a beautifully dressed little girl of about five years old was crying.

Zhu Kezhen was upset and irritable by the noise, but she carefully guarded the girl, for fear that she would fall into the river.

A small boat approached at a rapid pace, and several brocade guards jumped onto the big boat, bringing several packets of snacks and toys.

"Little baby! If you stop crying your nose and your uncle gives you this, okay? ”

Zhu Kezhen shook the windmill in her hand, and the little baby glanced at it with disdain, still crying loudly.

"Little baby! You don't cry your nose anymore, your uncle gave you this, okay? ”

Zhu Kezhen shook the sugar gourd in her hand, and the little baby turned her head and stopped crying.

"Look, what is this? Want to do it or not? ”

"I know, it's a sugar gourd......"

The little baby swallowed her saliva and took a step forward cautiously, but took several steps back.

"Don't be afraid, come here if you want to eat! You see, does my uncle look like a bad guy? ”

"Like!"

"Uh...... Actually, my uncle isn't a bad person!

No breaking your toes, no wrapping your feet in strips of cloth!

Come on, after eating this string of sugar gourds, uncle will take you to your mother immediately, okay? ”

"Good...... All right...... Thank you uncle ......"

……

Receiving the flying pigeon book, Wang Li was overjoyed!

Unexpectedly, it was so easy to rob Zhu Huijiao!

"Beauty, when the girl reaches the age of twelve, can't she really bind her feet?"

"Can't! At that time, the feet had already grown, and there was no point in tangling them! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Ruyan hurriedly put away her "big feet", and her face was full of doubts: "Factory father, why are you asking about this again?" ”

"It's okay, I'll just ask!

By the way, if a five-year-old girl is lost...... After seven years, can parents recognize their children? ”

"Factory, why are you weird today?

Does this need to be asked?

If there are obvious features on the girl's body, such as birthmarks, moles, wounds or something, she will definitely be able to recognize it!

If the girl has a special token, she can also recognize it! ”

Oh, yes!

How confused I am!

Does that Zhu Huijiao have obvious features on his body?

Zhu Kezhen, the rough man, did he obtain a special token when he robbed Zhu Huijiao?

When she returned it seven years later, what should Zhu Youzhen do if she didn't recognize her?

It seems like...... Until now, Zhu Youzhen only has two princesses!

He should love his daughter very much!

Seven years later, he will definitely recognize each other!

Princess, her personality and temperament are definitely different from that of a civilian woman!

Born in the royal family, grew up in the people, and then returned to the palace, what will her character and temperament become?

It's best to have a little personality as a woman!

But the most important thing is to be virtuous!

I only hope that Zhu Kezhen, that guy, don't raise her to be rude and willful!

I'll go!

The yellow, orange and orange ones on the mountain seem to be oranges!

It's already ripe!

Why did it fall to the ground and no one picked it up when it rotted?

"Factory man, there are too many oranges in Sichuan, all over the mountains!

Even if you pick it up in the city, you won't be able to sell it for a few dollars! ”

"Really? I remember...... The oranges over there in Jingshi seem to be fifty dollars a pound, right? The quality is not as good as Sichuan! ”

"That's Kyoshi! It was shipped from nearby!

The oranges in Sichuan are in good condition and taste, but there are too many local oranges, and they really can't be sold for a few dollars!

If it is transported from Sichuan to Jingshi or Nandu, all the roads will be broken! ”

Alas!

The traffic of this era is really not flattering!

It's so hard to start a vegetable and fruit business!

It's even harder to start an out-of-season vegetable and fruit business!

But why do I have to bring oranges to Beijing?

Isn't it okay to make all-natural orange juice and wait until summer to sell it?

Depend on!

Not really!

In this day and age, the sealing technology is poor, and there are no preservatives!

If it is made into orange powder, it shouldn't be so easy to spoil, right?

In the summer, it should be tempting to mix a bowl of cold water with a bowl of sweet and sour orange juice!

Rich people should be able to buy it, right?
