Just as Long Shaoyang burned the letterhead, the study of a mansion in the south of Los Angeles was bright, and the candles were burning.

"Meditation, you just said that last night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and my aunt went out of the palace without permission, and on the way back, they were assassinated by two masked men. A man paced slowly in the room and asked, "Is this true?"

The man who spoke was fifty-eight or nineteen years old, with a square face, hooked nose, sharp edges and corners, quite a weathered color, and a gray robe under the head's robe, unable to hide a majesty. He is one of the four pillar generals of the year, Zhennan General Zhu Yunque, a first-class duke, and now he is the prime minister, the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, which can be described as the power of the government and the opposition, and the pillar of the country.

"Father-in-law, it's true, it's the news that we handed over from the eyeliner beside the prince. A young man stood at the bottom of him, very tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a long sword hanging from his waist, bowed down and said slowly, "In addition, the child also got confirmation from the East Palace guards who participated in the rescue last night. Lord Xiao Di also strictly ordered the soldiers not to divulge information. ”

"Oh, it seems that my uncle doesn't just grow flowers and birds, listen to music and watch plays. Zhu Yunque said, smiled slightly, turned around and asked, "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince injured?"

"Nope. I heard that before the right guard of the East Palace led General Gu to arrive, a young man was killed halfway and the prince was saved. ”

"A young man, who is it?" asked Zhu Yunque.

"I heard that it was a foreigner who came to Los Angeles that night to enjoy the lanterns, and said that his surname was Long, and he was from Haizhou. ”

"Well, what a coincidence, where is this man now?"

"It is said that he was placed by the prince in Lord Xiao's courtyard. ”

"Oh. My uncle really loves to join in the fun...... Ponder, you immediately send someone to find out the details of this person. ”

"Yes. ”

"On the prince's side, tell our people to continue to keep an eye on who His Highness sees every day, what he says, and where he goes...... If you want to do the same, you will report it every two days. Don't take it lightly, if there is any change, you must immediately inform me.

"The child understands!"

Zhu Yunque stopped, slowly rubbed a piece of red jade on his waist with his hand, pondered for a while, and said: "The prince now also begins to know how to do things with his brain—he actually placed this person in Xiao Di's mansion. Hmph! What a trick to hide from the world. ”

"Father-in-law, in my child's humble opinion, I'm afraid that you are too worried. The crown prince's biological mother is gone, the harem is helpless, and the relatives have no support, so it can be said that he is weak; if Wei Guifei gives birth to the prince one day, the position of the crown prince may change hands accordingly, even if he is capable, what use will he have? Besides, the person who saved him last night may not be a young talent, maybe he is just a mediocre person who climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix. ”

"Well, that makes sense. But at the moment, he still has the respect of the prince after all, and he still has to be careful in the future. ”

"Yes. After a pause, he continued, "Father-in-law, do you want to send someone to publicize the prince's private trip out of the palace last night?"

The hand rubbing on the waist of Zhu Lark suddenly stopped, and he muttered, "No need." Leaving the palace without permission is just a trivial matter, and it is widely publicized, and if you offend the prince on the surface, it will inevitably make Your Majesty and the courtiers feel that someone is playing behind the scenes, making a big fuss, and in the end they will point the finger at the father. In this case, let's pretend not to know for the time being, and wait and see what happens. It's not too early, you step down. With that, he yawned.

Jing Si was about to turn around and retreat, but was stopped again: "Jing Si, I have been fighting for my father all my life, and I am close to my sixtieth year, and I will ...... After all, it belongs to you young people. Zhu Yunque suddenly became kind and abnormal, his eyes were kind, and he said slowly, "In the future, this family business will ...... Also, Bing'er has her own father in charge, so you are good at running errands. Go for it!"

"Yes...... Yes, the child must follow the teachings of his father!" Jing Si's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly in succession, and only turned to leave after exiting the study.

Zhu Yunque put his hands behind his back and walked unhurriedly to the front of the case, for a long time, he sighed and said, "Come in, when will you learn to listen to the root of the wall with someone? ”

At this moment, there was only one person in the room, and he said this as if he was muttering to himself, but as soon as the words fell, there was a crisp and pleasant voice outside the window: "How can people be sneaky? This is Zhufu, I am Miss Zhujia, I come out and go in, I am above board." ”

Before the words fell, a young girl had already entered the study. I saw that she was handsome, with green eyebrows, eyes and water, and her facial lines were quite clear - it was Zhu Xibing, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Zhu Lark turned around and said, "Did you hear what Dad said just now?"

"I heard everything I should have heard, and I didn't hear a word about what I shouldn't. ”

Zhu Yunque was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Dad really can't help you." I heard that you disguised yourself as a man today and secretly took the maid to Xue'er's Mansion for a day?"

"Ah, no...... No, my daughter stayed in the house all day today, practicing swords in the morning and playing the piano in the afternoon. "Zhuxi Bingdao.

"Are you still lying to your father? As soon as you arrived on the front foot, Xue'er sent her family to inform the executive's family. ”

"Oh, my sister promised not to tell you, it's really ......" Zhu Xibing pouted.

"She is also good for you, although there is nothing to do now, but you have a daughter's family, you go in and out alone, attracting people's eyes and ears, not to mention your ......"

"What's more, I am the general of Zhennan, the daughter of the prime minister of the dynasty and the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses. Got it, Dad, don't worry, my daughter is a woman dressed as a man. ”

"Nonsense! What kind of system does it become if you lose etiquette?"

"Didn't my father always want his daughter to be a man!"

"Presumptuous, are you talking to your father?"

Zhu Yunque snorted, raised his head, under the candlelight, I saw my daughter's stunned cheeks with crystal eyes, and I wanted to cry, I couldn't help but feel unbearable, walked forward, stretched out my hand and gently rubbed her hair, sighed and said: "It's all my father's bad, I don't have this body for a long time, my father is busy with government politics all day long, and he cares about you." Bing'er, you have grown up, and lifelong events should also be on the agenda. Jing Si came to the house since she was a child, and grew up with you, I see ......"

"Dad, my daughter is still young, and my daughter wants to wait for you for the rest of her life. Zhu Xi Bing said, his voice was full of grievances and reluctance.

"Hey, I'm talking stupid things again, it's all my fault for being too pampered with you. Zhu Yunque saw that his daughter was squeamish, and suddenly the other party repented for his reprimand, hurriedly changed the topic, and said with a pleasant face:

"Dad was full of joy when he first saw you enter the house, tell me quickly, did you encounter something interesting outside?"

"There is no interesting thing, but I met an interesting person in the house. ”

Hearing the word Zhu She, Zhu Lark's eyebrows were inadvertently raised, and he asked, "An interesting person?"

"Hmm. This man is both humane and martial, witty, and refined, refreshing, not as vulgar as ordinary Los Angeles youth. A red cloud flew from the corner of Zhu Xibing's eyes, flashed again, and said with a smile.

"Oh, there are such young people in Los Angeles? You should have more contact, and you can also introduce your father to him if you have the opportunity - Dad has always loved and cherished talents the most. Zhu Yunque stretched out his hand, yawned, and continued: "It's late at night, tomorrow Dad will prepare for the envoys of various countries to congratulate, go back to the room and sleep early." ”

"Yes, Dad. ”

Watching her daughter walk out of the study with a smile, after a long time, Zhu Yunque sighed and muttered: "How unfair God treats me, the position of power is all in my hands...... Hey, Bing'er, Bing'er, how nice it would be if you were a man......"
