At this time, a man wearing a jeweled crown and a dragon-patterned brocade robe outside the Qianqing Palace was stopped by a small eunuch.

The little eunuch said politely: "Prince, the noble concubine is inside at this time, you should stay and ask to see the emperor again." ”

Although the little eunuch's tone was quite polite, it could be seen that there was still a trace of contempt in his eyes.

Seeing that his master was so humiliated, the old eunuch on the side of the man really couldn't stand it, and he scolded loudly: "Bold slave, you dare to stop the prince from facing the king, this is a discord between the royal family and family." ”

The little eunuch was not only afraid, but said even more disdainfully: "Li Jinzhong, you are also old, don't you know the rules of this palace?" Our family is just obeying the emperor's orders. ”

"Don't you look at what kind of place this is, you dare to shout here, don't you know what your identity is?"

"Our family advises you, don't make trouble for your master."

The little eunuch talked lightly and wrote a few words, which made the old eunuch who was angry just now lose his temper.

In this regard, the crown prince Zhu Changluo is also helpless, or he is used to it, this is just a microcosm of his life in the palace for decades.

As a dignified crown prince, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, he could only whisper to a little eunuch, and he couldn't exchange him for a trace of mercy.

At this time, Zhu Changluo was already sweating profusely, and tears kept rolling in his eyes. In desperation, he had to kneel in front of the palace and kowtow while crying: "Father, the queen mother, she is almost dying, please move to Kunning Palace to meet her, you may not be able to see her if you go late!" ”

The "queen mother" in his mouth is not his biological mother Wang Gongfei, but the queen of Wanli.

His biological mother Concubine Wang Gong had passed away many years ago, and Wanli disliked the origin of Concubine Wang Gong's palace maid, and even looked down on his eldest son Zhu Changluo, and always called their mother and son "evil mothers and sons".

Even if he was forced to canonize Zhu Changluo as the crown prince, Wanli still imprisoned Concubine Wang Gong in Jingyang Palace, and did not allow their mother and son to see each other.

At that time, Concubine Wang Gong actually couldn't see her son, and her eyes were already blind from crying.

This poor woman finally finished her life after being abused, and although she was not treated well in life, they still had to sleep together after death.

After all, she is the biological mother of the Prince of the Ming Dynasty, and Wanli was not willing to let go of her mourning until ten months after her death, and buried the coffin of Concubine Wang Gong.

Zhu Changluo had neither fatherly nor maternal love since he was a child, and after the death of Empress Dowager Li, Queen Wang became the only person to take care of him.

So now that Queen Wang is critically ill, he will invite Wanli to Kunning Palace to meet his mother no matter what.

The movement outside the palace was too loud, which directly caused Wanli's dissatisfaction.

A little eunuch hurriedly walked in and said, "Emperor Qi, the prince is asking to see you outside the palace gate." ”

At this time, Concubine Zheng Guidi's face suddenly became gloomy, and she said: "It seems that this palace has delayed the reunion of your father and son, so I will take control of Yikun Palace." ”

Wanli knew that Concubine Zheng was angry, so he scolded loudly: "Didn't I say that when Concubine Zheng was here, the prince was not allowed to come, how did you do it." ”

Seeing Wanli angry, the little eunuch panicked directly, and immediately knelt down and said: "The slaves and maids also persuaded the prince in this way, but the eunuch Li Jinzhong next to the prince encouraged the prince on the side, made a loud noise, disturbed the emperor and the concubine, and asked the emperor to forgive him." ”

During the "Attack Case", Concubine Zheng was forced to apologize to the crown prince under pressure from the courtiers and ask for his forgiveness, which she regarded as a great shame.

Therefore, Wanli ordered that when Concubine Zheng Guifei was there, the prince was not allowed to come, so as not to intensify the conflict between the two.

At this time, Concubine Zheng Guifei couldn't do anything to the prince, so she just took this Li Jinzhong out of anger.

So he said: "The slaves and maids around the prince are really becoming more and more unruly, and they don't even care about Your Majesty, let alone me, the imperial concubine." ”

After speaking, he pretended to cry.

So Wanli was furious and said, "Someone will give me fifty canes for this Li Jinzhong." ”

"Li Jinzhong", this name is a bit familiar.

Soon Li Xianzhong reacted, didn't Gonggong Wei just pseudonym Li Jinzhong before he became a "nine thousand years old"?

It's the eunuch next to the prince again, it seems that Gonggong Wei didn't run away.

Could it be that his fate was changed by his own crossing?

Looking at Zheng Guifei's posture, she is going to kill Father-in-law Wei directly!

At present, Li Jinzhong is just a eunuch who has not yet made a career, and it is absolutely impossible to offend Concubine Zheng Guifei for him.

At present, the atmosphere in this Qianqing Palace is really a little embarrassing, and Li Xianzhong realizes that it is time for him to leave.

So he said: "The last general has been bothering His Majesty and Niangniang for a long time, and it is time to retire." ”

At this time, Concubine Zheng Guifei said: "Mr. Li has been busy for His Majesty for a long time, and it is really hard for Cui Wensheng to send him off for the palace; By the way, go to the palace to see if those slaves and maids who play the board are hiding their secrets. ”

After Zheng Guifei said this, Chang Yun's eyebrows tightened, it seems that this Zheng Guifei is determined to use Li Jinzhong, a slave, to kill chickens and monkeys, and let the whole harem see who is the master of the Forbidden City.

When Li Xianzhong walked out of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Changluo's forehead was already covered with blood.

When he heard that Li Jinzhong was going to be punished by fifty canes, he was even more angry, and he fainted directly from excitement.

The surrounding eunuchs just looked at it coldly, and the crown prince was unprecedented in doing Zhu Changluo's part.

Li Xianzhong walked up quickly, and helped Zhu Changluo, who fell to the ground, and fortunately, he fainted for a while and was fine.

He pinched Zhu Changluo's middle man hard, and he woke up.

Li Xianzhong slowly helped him up and said: "The last general Li Xianzhong has just come out of the Qianqing Palace, Your Majesty and Niangniang are talking in the palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's actions today are too reckless, let's ask to see Your Majesty later." ”

So Cui Wensheng on the side said: "Why don't you two hurry up and help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to rest." ”

Looking at Zhu Changluo, who was covered in blood, and thinking about Zhu Changxun, who was spoiled to the sky, Li Xianzhong also shook his head helplessly.

Although this Zhu Changluo is not treated by Wanli, after all, he has been made the prince for so many years, and there are still ministers who have taught him some lessons.

But later, the education of the two brothers, Zhu Youxiao and Zhu Youzhen, is really indescribable.

Cui Wensheng said: "Mr. Li, our family should have personally sent you out of the palace. However, I still have the responsibility of imprisonment, so it is inconvenient to send it far away. ”

Li Xianzhong said: "I also happen to be idle, I heard that the cane in the palace is very particular, can you let me accompany Gonggong Cui to watch the execution together." ”

Li Xianzhong's request is really a bit strange, Cui Wensheng didn't expect him to have this kind of habit.

But today, he won the emperor's reward thanks to Li Xianzhong's guidance, and accepted his Dongzhu, although this request does not comply with the rules, it is not a big deal.

At this time, Li Jinzhong had already been taken to the torture hall.

He has been in the palace for 30 years, and by hooking up with the emperor's grandson's grandmother Ke Yinyue, he finally won the trust of the emperor's grandson Zhu Youxiao.

Today, the eunuch Wang An beside the prince complained of illness, and he finally got a chance to follow the prince, and originally wanted to behave in front of the prince.

Unexpectedly, the force was too violent, and he was directly sent to the torture hall.

The punishment of this rod is very exquisite, as long as you make money, these eunuchs can be as if they have been beaten, but in fact there is nothing to do; Or you can look like you barely hit hard, but each rod hurts you to the bone marrow, so that you can't survive 20 blows.

Originally, Li Xianzhong also had some savings, and it was not difficult to spend some money to buy a life from them.

But now Concubine Zheng Guifei has sent Cui Wensheng to prison, which is obviously for her own life.

At this time, he was full of remorse, blaming himself for his impulsive desire to behave in front of the prince.

Just when Li Jinzhong was about to accept his fate, he saw a man dressed as a military general and said, "Why do you look so similar to Uncle Wei?" ”

Then he continued: "Are you a native of Suning, Beizhili, whose original name is Wei Si, and your nickname is 'Wei Fool'?" ”

Li Jinzhong was confused when asked, he was indeed a native of Suning, Beizhili, and his name was Wei Si, and people nearby called him "Wei Fool".

The general looked like he was only 20 years old, how could he possibly know this?

But at the moment, there is a dead end, maybe there will be a life, so he replied: "Before the villain entered the palace, he was indeed called Wei Si, and he was called 'Wei Fool', how did the general know?" ”

Li Xianzhong said with a surprised expression: "That's right, you must be Uncle Wei's son who entered the palace many years ago." ”

This is even more strange, when his dead ghost father died, he had not entered the palace, and his mother had not remarried, this person was obviously talking nonsense.

However, he still said as if he had grasped a life-saving straw at this time: "I wonder how this general knows his father?" ”

Cui Wensheng was even more confused at this time, this Li Xianzhong said that he was here to watch the punishment, how did he become a confession, he was only in his early 20s to know the father of this old eunuch?

But he said that he had a nose and eyes.

At this time, Li Xianzhong was also sweating, for fear that he would misremember the information of "nine thousand years old".

Li Xianzhong whispered: "Father-in-law Cui doesn't know, this person is the long-lost son of Wei Wuji, a real friend of the family teacher Ziyun. Uncle Wei was separated from his son many years ago, and after many inquiries, he learned that his son had entered the palace as a eunuch. ”

"Since he is the son of the old man of the family teacher, I wonder if Grandpa Cui can make it convenient to save his life?"

At this time, Cui Wensheng said in embarrassment: "If he commits an ordinary thing, with the friendship between you and me, it is not difficult to leave him alive, but this is the person named by the concubine Niangniang to watch the slave?" ”

So Li Xianzhong took out a golden pearl the size of a lychee and whispered: "This East Pearl can be exchanged for two thousand taels of silver from Chengguo Gong in Jubaozhai, and Brother Cui can also stay and play with it himself." ”

After Cui Wensheng took Dongzhu, he said with a smile: "The meaning of the concubine must be to teach this Li Jinzhong a lesson, you beat me hard, and there will be no mercy." ”

At this time, Li Jinzhong saw that Cui Wensheng's feet that were originally open outward were now inward.

This is the black language of these eunuchs who executed them, which means to leave a life.

Although he didn't know why this general, whom he had never met, would spare no expense to save his life, he would definitely repay this life-saving favor in the future.

After that, Li Xianzhong left the palace.
