Chapter 214: The Knife on the Neck
After Zhu Jinghong withdrew, Zhu Xianming let the Crown Prince in.
"My sons and ministers bow to their father"
On the dragon chair, Zhu Xianming had changed into his regular clothes and was sitting on the dragon chair, reading memorials.
"You can see something from the memorials that the prince recently asked you to read."
With Zhu Jinghong's plea, Zhu Xianming no longer wanted to pursue the matter of the armor.
To put it bluntly, the meaning of armor is given by people. Since the prince does not recognize those meanings, then it is just a cold armor.
Hearing this, Zhu Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he had made some mistake and was going to be scolded by the old man again.
After briefly sorting out his thoughts, Zhu Jingyuan replied, "Father, after watching these days, I also have some insights."
Looking at the prince still kneeling on the ground, Zhu Xianming couldn't help but think of Zhu Jinghong, if This kid will never kneel down honestly.
"Get up and talk"
"Yes"
After standing up, Zhu Jingyuan bowed and replied, "These memorials are from the 10th year of Taiping to the present." , which listed many things, after my son read it"
While Zhu Jingyuan was answering, Zhu Jinghong left the Qianqing Palace and unconsciously went to the inner court.
Yes, he went to Kunning Palace to learn how to play chess again.
For people, it is normal to have one or two hobbies. Who said that Zhu Jinghong can only dance with guns and sticks.
After entering Kunning Palace, Zhu Jinghong learned that Princess Nan'an and several other imperial concubines had come to the palace to talk to the queen again.
This fulfilled Zhu Jinghong's wish, so he went to Zhu Yunsheng's palace, where several girls were working together as female workers.
"Brother Thirteen, why are you here again?" Looking at Zhu Jinghong in armor, Zhu Yunsheng looked very surprised.
And Zhu Yunsheng’s question made Zhu Jinghong very embarrassed.
He despises Jia Baoyu, feeling that he has no ambition and only wants to get involved with women, but now his behavior is no different from Jia Baoyu.
"Third sister, I am your thirteenth brother, why don't you come to see me?"
Who knows that Zhu Yunsheng asked, "You are here to see me"
p>
After saying this, her eyes swept towards Baochai, but the latter lowered his head and ignored it, otherwise the rest would be endless.
At this moment, a palace maid outside reported, "Princess, I have told you to go with Miss Yang and Miss Xue"
"Oh, I got it"
< p>After getting up, Zhu Yunsheng said to Baochai and Baochai, "Let's go."When passing in front of Zhu Jinghong, Zhu Yunsheng smiled and said, "Brother Thirteen, we're excused"
Then Yang Jingting passed, and then Baochai left in a hurry, leaving only Zhu Jinghong and Zhen Qin in the room.
Zhen Qin was very happy. After Baochai and others left, she faced Zhu Jinghong.
“Thirteenth Master, I’m here to teach you how to play chess.My sister is worse, but not bad."
"Oh, that girl Zhenqin"
"I suddenly remembered that there was something urgent at Shanglinyuan, so I took my leave."
Coming up with a lame excuse, Zhu Jinghong turned around and left, making Zhen Qin want to jump.
“Why am I so unlucky? I finally came across an opportunity today. Thirteenth Master has something to do."
Let's say that Zhu Yunsheng and his entourage arrived at the main hall of Kunning Palace. There were eight ladies sitting on the left and right sides, chatting with the queen about their daily life.
Seeing Zhu Yunsheng's arrival, These extraordinary ladies all stood up and saluted.
"Blessed Princess"
"Sheng'er will benefit a lot now that she has an attendant"
< p>Pointing to the two Baochai who followed behind, Yang Qingyin said with a smile, "With this result, these two girls are indispensable for their supervision and restraint, which makes me feel relieved a lot.""Come on, you guys "Come here to see the two of you"
At the Queen's prompting, Baochai and the two walked to the center and saluted the senior ladies present.
Although the selection of the attendants had been completed, these The senior wives did not give up, and would recommend their daughters from time to time.
After all, it was only a matter of words from the queen to replace the attendants or add a few more places.
Allowing the daughter of the family to enter the palace can protect the family inheritance, and these high-ranking wives are willing to make unremitting efforts.
The queen called Baochai and the others to dispel their ideas.
No matter how outstanding your daughter is, how can she be better than these two girls?
This also explains why Zhen Qin was not summoned. Obviously, in the queen's mind, she is worse than Baochai and the other two. < /p>
When the exams at Kunning Palace began, Zhu Jinghong also returned to Chengmingyuan.
Jia Zhen, who was waiting outside the door, greeted him immediately when he saw someone coming.
< p>"Your Majesty, Jia Zhen, come to meet the Thirteenth Master"Looking at the third-grade military attache kneeling in front of him, Zhu Jinghong said indifferently, "You are Jia Zhen"
This made Jia Zhen's heart tremble Incomparably, he carefully answered "Yes"
Taking off the iron armor, Zhu Jinghong threw it to the accompanying eunuch and asked at the same time, "The person has been found."
Jia Zhen replied, "Your Majesty." After ten thousand deaths, the culprit was not found. He violated the instructions of the Thirteenth Master and came here today to receive the punishment."
To receive the punishment against Zhu Jinghong's instructions is tantamount to saying that the Jia family does not recognize the Qin family's proposal. He was defending himself in disguise.
These words were thought of in advance in the house, so Jia Zhen blurted them out.
Zhu Jinghong walked to Jia Zhen with his hands behind his back. In front of him, the latter crouched lower, so that only Zhu Jinghong's toes could be seen.
The sound of gold and iron clashing made Jia Zhen's heart tremble. /p>
He wanted to run away, but he didn’t even have the courage to stand up. He wanted to ask for mercy but was so scared that he couldn’t even make a sound.
Jia Zhen has lived for so many years, even if it is ten years. During the Donghuamen Incident two years ago, he did notAs desperate as today.
Although his reason told him that as a first-class man in the court and a third-class general, Zhu Jinghong would not kill him in public.
But who can tell clearly about this kind of thing
Zhu Jinghong really killed him, and if he is charged with assassination, the matter will be easily solved. .
Absolutely no one will complain on his behalf, and even the Jia family will remove him and cut him off to protect the safety of the clan.
Putting the knife on Jia Zhen's shoulder, Zhu Jinghong asked softly, "Is it your instigation to go to the Qin family to pick a fight?"
Whether it was the Jia family's instigation or not, Zhu Jinghong has already made a judgment. , asking questions nowadays is just a trick.
In fact, even if it was really the Jia family who did it, the emperor had given instructions two days ago, so Zhu Jinghong could only let them go.
"Back to the Thirteenth Master, I guarantee it on the honor of my ancestors. This matter has absolutely nothing to do with me or the Jia family."
In Jia Zhen's view, this is the last chance to survive, so He said this firmly.
Unfortunately, after he finished speaking, Zhu Jinghong's knife was still on his neck, indicating that Jia Zhen's difficulties were not over yet.
Just listen to Zhu Jinghong then ask, "Why do you want to embarrass the Qin family?"
Objectively speaking, the Jia and Qin families are voluntarily engaged, and the Qin family's unilateral breakup of the engagement is actually not very important. Logically speaking, based on current values, the Jia family should feel aggrieved.
Jia Zhen could only bite the bullet and explain, "The Thirteenth Master is generous, and the Qin family's daughter is engaged to Quanzi. Relatives and friends already know about this. The Qin family suddenly wants to break off the engagement. If I agree directly, Ningguo Mansion will definitely lose face." "Sweep the floor"
"I am embarrassing the Qin family, but I have to do it for the sake of the public face."
Zhu Jinghong sneered, "It's really for the public face, not for your reputation." What other ideas do you have?"
Jia Zhen was shocked when she heard this. Fortunately, he was lying on the ground so that no one could see his expression.
"I have no other ideas, and I hope the Thirteenth Master can learn from it."
The scene was silent for a few seconds, and the knife was still on Jia Zhen's neck, which made him feel that these few seconds Extremely long.
