After the Ryukyu envoy Lu talked with Du Buxing, he learned that Du Bucheng had been a Daming detective and a hero before.

This Lord Lu happened to be the first time to envoy Daming, and he was not familiar with Daming, so he just asked Du Buyi to follow him in order to lead the way.

Along the way, good wine and good food are naturally indispensable, and Fu Tianchen is naturally the most excited, because he finally eats good wine and food, and he can go back to the Central Plains to live a free life again!

And Du Bu Bu is preoccupied, because he is worried that there are too many things he cares about, but Duan Xian'er is also a little unhappy in his heart, Xian'er knows in her heart that after returning to the Central Plains, she will be separated from Du Bu again.

At this time, the three of them were eating wine and food in a room in the cabin, and Fu Tianchen also saw that the two of them didn't seem to be very happy, so he asked:

"Am I bothering you?"

Du Cheng Cheng said:

"Of course not, I just have too many things on my mind!"

At this time, Xian'er said:

"Brother Fu, do you think I can go back to the past with him? You know that we have been together for so long, he hasn't even touched me!"

Du didn't forget to glance at Duan Xian'er and asked:

"What is a touch?"

Then he touched Duan Xian'er with his hand and said:

"Is Xian'er like this?"

Xian'er replied:

"You know it in your own heart!"

Then he walked out angrily.

At this time, Fu Tianchen asked Du Yiyi:

"What's wrong with you and Xian'er?"

Du Bu replied:

"We're good!"

Fu Tianchen said again:

"Brother Du, you seem to have changed, a little bit different from the suave appearance you used to be!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Maybe, after all, I'm not too young, I'm almost thirty soon!"

Fu Tianchen sighed and said:

"Also, I'm already thirty years old, and if my parents were still alive, they would know what I am like now, and I don't know how they would teach me a lesson!"

Du did not forget to smile and asked:

"What can uncle and aunt teach you, Brother Fu? Brother Fu, you haven't done anything wrong!"

Fu Tianchen said:

"You see that I am over thirty years old now, but I still have no fixed residence, let alone a wife and concubines, can I not be scolded by them?"

Du did not forget to say:

"I'm not the same as you, but Brother Fu, you are a freedom-loving person, and I am a person with bad luck and is destined for many disasters!"

Fu Tianchen took a sip of wine and said:

"I envy you, Brother Du, the beauties around you are like clouds, and you have done so many earth-shattering things, this is something that many people can't get in their lives!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"I don't want to do this, but I do make people, if there is an afterlife, I will never forget that I only want to be a farmer who lives in seclusion in the mountains, marry a good wife, and the two of them will grow old together!"

At this time, Xian'er suddenly walked in and said to Du Yiyi:

"Brother Du, it turns out that you also have this idea, so after we return to the Central Plains this time, how about you accompany me back to the southwest to live in seclusion? I grow vegetables at home, you plow the land and hunt, why don't our husbands and wives be happy!"

Du didn't forget a lot of troubles in his heart, how could he have the heart to live in seclusion now, so he had to reply:

"Xian'er, of course I want to do this, your brother Du, but unfortunately I can't do it now, because I can't let go of Xi Siqi, Keiko, and Feng Niang in my heart, and even Mingxi, who knows nothing about life and death now!"

Xian'er said:

"I see!"

Then he sat down, picked up the wine and drank it in a big gulp.

The ship traveled on the sea for more than half a month, and finally arrived at Tianjin, which was the closest to Jingshi.

As soon as Du Bufu asked these Maitreya disciples, he learned that they had already learned at sea that he and the Ryukyu envoys would go ashore in Tianjin to go to Jingshi, so they had come to greet him.

Du Buyi asked these Maitreya disciples all the way about the recent events in the Central Plains, and the Maitreya disciples naturally answered one by one.

The most surprising thing that Du will never forget is that Mingxi was actually taken by Zhu Houxi and stayed in the palace.

After arriving in the capital, Du Buyi and others ran into a group of Fusang people carrying an eight-person sedan chair passing by in the capital, and the person on the sedan chair was actually a Fusang person!

Du did not forget to find someone to inquire, only to know that this Fusang person was actually a prince of the Fusang royal family, and he was specially invited by the Ming Emperor Zhu Houyu to watch the ceremony, that is, to visit the ceremony of Zhu Houyu rewarding Mingxi as the imperial concubine.

After Du Buyi heard it, he was naturally surprised, and naturally anxiously wanted to enter the palace to find out the news of Mingxi at this time.

After separating from the Ryukyu envoy Lord Lu and others, Du Buyi and Fu Tianchen and Duan Xian'er found an inn in the capital to stay.

At night, Du did not forget to inform Fu Tianchen and Duan Xian'er, and quietly sneaked into the palace by himself, and after catching a palace maid and inquiring about it, he learned that Mingxi was living in Shouchang Palace in the West Palace with a group of show girls who were not favored by the emperor.

At this time, in the main hall of Shouchang Palace, a group of show girls were not sleeping at this time, and were happily surrounding Mingxi, but Mingxi's expression was not happy at this time.

I only heard one of the women who was quite handsome and said loudly to Mingxi:

"Sister Mingxi, you will be a concubine tomorrow, sister, congratulations!"

Mingxi replied to the woman:

"Sister Zhen'er, it's not that you don't understand my sister and me, what is there to congratulate?"

Then the woman said:

"Sister Mingxi, don't we all persuade you? Marrying the emperor as a concubine is something that many of our women dream of, why are you still so persistent, you see that you have been here for a few months in our Shouchang Palace, how many times has Your Majesty been here for you? How can a woman in the world have your luck!"

At this time, the other women on the side also said:

"Sister Mingxi, calm down and go back to rest, tomorrow Your Majesty will hold a big ceremony to make you a concubine, you must cherish this opportunity, and you can still help our sisters when the time comes!"

Mingxi didn't reply, only said:

"I want to be alone!"

Then prepare to go out of the main hall and go back to the backyard.

At this time, a eunuch suddenly came to report:

"Empress Dowager Cishou, Empress Dowager Cixiao, Empress Dowager have arrived!"

When the women heard this, they didn't expect that the queen mother and the queen of the two palaces would actually come to this Shouchang Palace today, after all, it was the first time in these years, and they were shocked in an instant, and immediately knelt on the ground to greet the three of them.

This Empress Dowager Cishou is the mother of Emperor Wuzong of the previous dynasty, Emperor Xiaozong was originally married to Empress Zhang, and is also Zhu Houxi's aunt, and Empress Dowager Cixiao is the mother of Empress Dowager Jiang Zhu Houxi, the queen at this time is Zhang, and she is also the second queen of Zhu Houyu after Chen Lian'er.

I saw that after Empress Dowager Jiang pulled Empress Dowager Zhang to Shouchang Palace, she asked loudly:

"Which of you is called Mingxi?"

At this time, Empress Zhang, who was walking behind the two, came over, pointed to Mingxi, who was kneeling behind the crowd, and said:

"Aunt, mother, this little girl is Mingxi!"

Aunt Empress Dowager Zhang came over to look at Mingxi first and said:

"This girl looks quite smart, but it's actually not bad!"

Empress Dowager Jiang came over a little unhappily, also looked at Mingxi, and said:

"Your name is Mingxi?"

Mingxi lowered his head and replied:

"The little girl is Mingxi!"

Empress Dowager Jiang asked again:

"Lift your head up and I'll see!"

Mingxi raised his head.

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang asked again:

"Why didn't you bow your head when Empress Cishou came just now, but when the palace came, you lowered your head, are you afraid that the palace will scare you?"

Mingxi hurriedly explained:

"Mingxi doesn't dare, Mingxi is just nervous when he sees the Empress Dowager Cixiao!"

Empress Dowager Zhang said to Mingxi:

"You don't have to be nervous, you can answer whatever we ask you!"

Mingxi replied:

"The little girl obeys!"

Empress Dowager Jiang asked again at this time:

"I heard that you are the princess of Fuso Kingdom?"

Mingxi Return:

"Yes!"

Empress Dowager Jiang said:

"Since it's a princess, let's get up quickly, no need to kneel!"

Mingxi replied:

"Thank you, the two Queen Mothers and the Queen!"

Then he stood up.

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang, Empress Dowager Zhang, and Empress Wang sat down in the hall together, and Mingxi also stood aside.

I only heard Empress Dowager Jiang ask:

"I heard that you Fusang often have ronins come to our Daming coastal area to plunder?

Mingxi replied:

"National affairs, Mingxi never asks, and I don't know!"

Empress Dowager Jiang asked again:

"I heard that my emperor is going to make you a concubine tomorrow, but is there such a thing?"

Mingxi replied:

"I don't know at this time!"

On the side, Queen Zhang said:

"This matter has spread all over the palace, so I told the two queen mothers!"

Empress Dowager Zhang smiled slightly and said to Empress Dowager Jiang:

"Sister, I think we're all old, let's take care of the affairs of these young people, I think this Mingxi is pretty good, and it is the royal birth of Fusang Kingdom, so it is reasonable to be a concubine!"

Empress Dowager Jiang suddenly threw the table on the ground for the rest of her life, and said:

"Even if the royal family was born, how could there be a saying that he would be a concubine as soon as he entered the palace, and my emperor didn't even tell me about such a big thing, obviously he forgot about me!"

Empress Zhang immediately said next to her:

"Queen Mother, it's no wonder the emperor is doing this, the emperor must be fascinated by this woman in Mingxi, so he is like this!"

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang questioned Mingxi:

"You give me an honest explanation, how did you charm my emperor?"

Mingxi immediately explained:

"I didn't confuse the emperor, and I only had a few relationships with the emperor, how could I confuse the emperor?"

Empress Zhang pointed to Mingxi at this time and asked:

"You didn't confuse the emperor, why did the emperor come to this Shouchang Palace again and again, and specially sent people to Fusang to ask the so-called emperor over there to marry you, and they all planned to make you a concubine from a show girl!"

Mingxi suddenly couldn't help but reply at this time:

"Do you think I am willing to be your concubine of the Ming Dynasty? It's not your emperor who forced me, I entered the palace to testify, but I didn't expect to be taken by your emperor and forcibly left me in this palace, I Mingxi has already collected enough!"

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang was suddenly furious, and said to the eunuch and palace maid on the side:

"Pull out this Mingxi, who doesn't know etiquette, and scold thirty first, this palace is the first time to encounter this kind of person who dares to collide with this palace and wronged my emperor!"

The eunuch and the palace maid immediately came over and put Mingxi out, ready to scold him, when he suddenly heard a voice:

"Aunt, queen mother, please slow down, the emperor has something to say!"

Naturally, Zhu Houxi walked in.

After Zhu Houxi entered the door, he first glared at Empress Zhang, and then whispered a few words in front of Empress Dowager Jiang.

At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang said to Zhu Houxi:

"What are you going to do with the Emperor?"

Zhu Houxi replied:

"The people in the palace and the people in the capital will know that the emperor is going to be a concubine tomorrow, and besides, this concubine is still the Fusang royal family, won't the queen mother affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries if she beats her now?"

Empress Dowager Jiang got up and left a sentence:

"Emperor, you can do it yourself, I am old!"

Ignore everyone directly, and go out.

At this time, Empress Dowager Zhang said:

"Nephew, I was also dragged by your mother, I don't know what the situation is, you can handle it yourself!"

And he went out.

Empress Zhang was about to go out at this time, and was directly scolded by Zhu Houxi:

"Stop, Queen, I didn't let you go!"

Frightened, he stood at the door.
