Because of the rebellion of the White Lotus thief, the entire capital has strengthened its vigilance, and the guards in and out of the city are much tighter, and the people of the capital are deeply touched by this.

The people also understand this very well, and the imperial court cannot pay too much attention to such a major event as the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.

In this way, today's time has passed, and the time has come to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

In the capital, business travelers from all over the world gathered, pushing the festive atmosphere to a climax.

But now the inner city gate is locked, and people from other places can only wait in the outer city, waiting for the city gate to open and then enter the inner city.

What is quite spectacular is that on the wide Yongding Heavenly Street, it is crowded with people before noon.

You must know that Yongding Tianjie is more than 100 meters wide, and there are nearly six or seven miles from Yongding Gate to Zhengyang Gate, so you can imagine how many people there are today.

As soon as there are many people, it is easy to make a stampede, so according to the usual practice, "traffic control" will be carried out, and only the three gates of Xuanwu, Zhengyang and Chongwen will be opened at that time, and the flow will be limited to a certain extent.

At this moment, inside and outside the Zhengyang Gate, there are thousands of soldiers guarding here, and the foreman commander is even more like a great enemy.

"My lord, it's time!"

Hearing the reminder from the person behind him, the commander walked out of the gatehouse and then appeared above the urn city.

At his signal, the drums sounded above the tower, and the thousands of households below received the signal and signaled their subordinates to open the city gate.

At this moment, in the urn city, hundreds of soldiers stood behind the rejection of the horse, staring at the direction of the city gate one by one.

At this time, they are most afraid of a stampede, so they have to be vigilant.

As the gates opened, the people began to enter the urn city, followed by the shouts of soldiers.

Although they were scolded, the people who entered the urn city were very happy, because they were the first to come, and it was very likely that they would walk outside the Daming Gate for a while.

After about ten minutes, thousands of people had gathered in the urn city, and then the outer city gate was closed.

Immediately after that, the inner city gate was opened, and at this time there was no one to control it, and the people in the urn city spread out and rushed inside.

After about a few more minutes, after all the people in Weng City had passed, the inner gate closed and the outer gate opened, and then entered the next cycle.

Such a situation is also staged in the Chongwen Gate of Xuanwu Gate, and the people who want to touch their heads outside the Daming Gate have tried their best to go to the city.

However, it was only noon, and it was at least four hours before it got dark.

Unlike the bustle of the inner and outer cities, the Imperial City was extremely quiet, and it was rare to see anyone alive except for the guards and soldiers.

The palace maids and eunuchs who work are also cautious when they come and go, and they need to be checked by the soldiers at any time.

When the time came to the afternoon, the high-ranking civil and military officials of the imperial court and the royal relatives of the clan entered the palace, and they naturally wanted to participate in the grand event tonight.

It's just that today they are not the protagonists, so they didn't even enter the palace, but waited at the government office in the imperial city first.

The only people who can enter the palace are the crown prince and the king of Rui, and they are staying in Ningshou Palace at the moment, because the emperor himself is also here.

This year's Shangyuan Festival is the first appearance of the Emperor Taishang, and if you want to perform the drama of father and son filial piety well, you must first talk together to find a good feeling.

But between the emperor and the emperor, there was really nothing to talk about, which made the atmosphere extremely embarrassing.

Zhu Xianming also felt uncomfortable staying there, so he deduced that there was still a book to see and leave first, and let the prince and King Rui accompany the old man instead of him.

This time, Zhu Xianming was relaxed, and the prince and King Rui who stayed behind were uncomfortable.

The two of them don't like each other, and they will quarrel and sarcasm every time they meet, but now they have to perform harmony and talk to the emperor.

But the old man was not worried, and his questions were extremely tricky, which made the two grandsons very embarrassed.

It stands to reason that Zhu Jinghong should also be here, but this guy knew that he was bored, so he hid in advance, on the grounds that he had some diarrhea.

At this moment, he was nesting in the Chengming Courtyard, wiping his saber with a towel.

"You mean to say that there are about a dozen people in the east factory of the palace?"

Hearing the question, Deng An hurriedly replied: "That's right, but according to the slave's speculation, I'm afraid that most of them have been wronged!" ”

In order to ensure the absolute integrity of the imperial city, in order to save their lives, the leaders of the East Factory did everything.

Putting down the saber, Zhu Jinghong asked in a deep voice: "Since there are those who have been wronged, there may also be fish that have slipped through the net, right?" ”

"This ...... Slaves don't dare to talk nonsense! ”

Looking up at Deng An, Zhu Jinghong said slowly: "Go and get my armor!" ”

Although he didn't understand Zhu Jinghong's intentions, Deng An didn't hesitate at all, and immediately replied: "Yes!" ”

The three big eunuchs under Zhu Jinghong belong to Deng An's brain, and they are obedient and reliable, and they are also much more disciplined after being beaten, and they are extremely easy to use.

Soon, Deng An led a few little eunuchs to take the armor, and then Zhu Jinghong asked them to serve and wear.

Even Deng An was surprised when he heard this outrageous request, so he subconsciously asked, "Thirteenth Master, aren't you going to the Lantern Festival tonight?" ”

Zhu Jinghong was wearing armor at the moment, and Deng An thought that he was going to practice martial arts, so naturally he would not go to Damingmen.

"Of course you have to go, hurry up and wait, don't talk nonsense!"

"Yes!"

Immediately after, several little eunuchs got busy.

This set of armor was given by Zhu Jingyuan, and the inner and outer layers add up to dozens of catties, and it will be very difficult for a normal strong man to wear it, but for Zhu Jinghong, he feels nothing.

"How long will it take for the Qin family's matter to be decided?"

"I think it should be in the first month, maybe it's just a few days!" Deng An replied carefully.

Stretching out his arms and letting the eunuchs operate, Zhu Jinghong continued: "The residence of the girl of the Qin family, you have to let people keep an eye on it, don't let people bully you again!" ”

"Rest assured, the thirteenth master has already greeted the thousands of households in charge, and he has also sent someone from our palace to keep an eye on it, it will be foolproof!"

"That's good!"

Then there was no words, and after a few minutes passed, Zhu Jinghong appeared in his complete body, and his force value could be called a tank in this era.

Hanging the saber on his belt, Zhu Jinghong picked up the iron jacket and walked out of the main hall.

"Thirteenth Master, where are you going*" Deng An hurriedly followed.

"Go to Qianqing Palace!"

"Oh...... Yes? ”

Where is Qianqing Palace? It was the emperor's bedroom, the most heavily guarded and sensitive place.

Zhu Jinghong wore a suit of armor to go over, which is not only inappropriate, but also a great rebellion.

"Thirteenth Master, don't do it!" Deng An hurriedly chased him out.

Looking at Deng An, who was following him and wanted to persuade him, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help laughing and said, "Do you think I'm crazy?" ”

"Thirteenth Master, wear armor and go to the Qianqing Palace, that's a felony!" Deng An reminded him very implicitly.

"Don't worry about it, I've already asked for a decree!" Zhu Jinghong replied.

"But this ......"

Deng An definitely couldn't persuade Zhu Jinghong, so he could only follow while quietly ordering someone to go to Kunning Palace to report the news, for fear that his master would cause a big disaster.

If you want to go to the Qianqing Palace, even if you walk in, you have to go through three palace gates, in other words, three lines of defense.

Zhu Jinghong walked the closest way, but when he walked to the first palace gate, he was naturally stopped by the guards.

"Thirteenth Master, who are you?"

Zhu Jinghong replied calmly: "I am ordered to go to the Qianqing Palace and serve the emperor!" ”

Although they all knew Zhu Jinghong, the scene in front of them was so outrageous that the hundreds of households guarding the door seemed very difficult.

"Dare to ask the Thirteenth Master, what is the will?"

Zhu Jinghong said calmly: "Holy Lord's message, if you don't believe it, ask him to go!" ”
