Chapter 458 The storm has begun
March 25, the twelfth year of Orthodoxy.
This was the tenth day after Zhu Jinghong fell into the water. His "cultivation" had also come to an end. On this day, he led Baochai into the palace.
With them, Zhu Yunsheng and others entered the palace, and their semi-free life was about to end.
In the past few days, Zhu Jinghong went to see Daiyu several times, but this girl either avoided seeing her or went to crowded places, making it impossible for Zhu Jinghong to trick her.
Of course, he himself enjoyed this feeling of aloofness, but it was only because of Daiyu's internal friction.
Everyone entered the palace together, Zhu Jinghong went to Qianqing Palace, and Baochai led Zhu Yunsheng and his party to Kunning Palace.
When Zhu Jinghong arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Zhu Xianming was reading the memorial, and what he was holding was the impeachment of the Liaodong capital.
As an official of the Ming Dynasty, it is extremely normal to be impeached. Even people like Wang Pei'an, who have no black spots, have been drowned by large bullets before.
It’s just that the content of the impeachment this time is very different, and it is related to the loss of Liaodong Dusi’s ordnance two years ago.
Unfortunately, it was Wang Shuirong of Beijing who was ordered to inspect that time, and he personally handled the matter.
The result of the water-soluble treatment at that time was that one commander of the Liaodong Dusi was dismissed from his post, two commanders of the Fushun Guards were beheaded, and the commanders were removed from their posts and their homes were searched; the commander of the Liaohai Guards and a commander Tongzhi was beheaded.
Logically speaking, the matter should have ended, but now the impeachment of the censor of the Liaodong Patrol has dug up this old story again.
The group of people who were inspected and punished by Shui Rong before were mainly responsible for reselling ordnance to various Jurchen ministries. However, this time the censor impeached Jiulian Guard and Xin'an Guard. This group of people took the ordnance operation to North Korea.
Zhu Xianming could see that this bullet was aimed at Liaodong Dusi, but its actual goal was to rectify Shuixun, and finally involved the prince.
However, Zhu Xianming would not tolerate the reselling of arms under any circumstances, so he must investigate this matter strictly.
So he immediately issued three edicts. First, he ordered Jinyiwei Liaodong Qianhu Station to conduct a strict investigation. At the same time, he asked Nanzhen Fusi to secretly investigate in North Korea. Finally, he asked Dongchang to send a team of people there.
Including the censor of the Liaodong Patrol who was originally investigating the matter, there were a total of four people investigating the matter.
"This guy, Lao Liu, does have some tricks up his sleeves," Zhu Xianming sighed inwardly.
Immediately afterwards, someone came to report from outside, saying that His Royal Highness King Xiang came to pay homage.
"Ask him to come in"
After a few breaths, Zhu Jinghong stepped in.
Although he is still the same person, Zhu Xianming feels that he has changed a bit, almost the same as when he returned from a trip to Jinling.
"My son, I bow to my father," Zhu Jinghong saluted solemnly.
Zhu Xianming was a little unaccustomed to being so observant of etiquette, so he just said "hmm" to signal him to get up.
"Everything is fine"
"Everything is fine"
"Yes" Zhu Xianming nodded. The child who was too polite made him not know what to say.
"Dad, my son wants to go to the northwest with the Northern Four Guards. Look at this."
"You are making such a big fuss, but I can still stop you from going"< /p>
"Thank you, thank you very much, dad, you are busy, my son, I'm leaving." Zhu Jinghong saluted and turned to leave.
"You are leaving now"
"You have agreed to everything, why should I stay here? My son is rushing to greet his mother"
< p>It's like saying that he dropped by my place to ask for advice. Zhu Xianming's face darkened.But just as he was about to say something, Zhu Jinghong had already moved away quickly, giving Zhu Xianming no chance to scold him.
After scolding "this bastard" with a smile, Zhu Xianming picked up the next memorial.
After leaving Qianqing Palace, Zhu Jinghong went straight to Kunning Palace. At this moment, Baochai was replying to the queen, and Zhu Yunsheng stood nervously beside him.
It turned out that the content of the question was about Zhu Yunsheng’s schoolwork, and the queen was blaming Baochai for not supervising strictly.
In this regard, Baochai had no choice but to endure the queen's anger.
Fortunately, Zhu Jinghong's arrival diverted the queen's attention and prevented Baochai from being questioned further.
"My son, I wish you well" Zhu Jinghong kowtowed solemnly.
"Get up quickly, your body will feel better," Yang Qingyin said with concern, fearing that her son's knees would hurt from kneeling.
"My son has been well for a long time. I planned to go to the palace to pay you respects a few days ago. It is Baochai who has to let me take care of him for a few more days for fear of his son."
Zhu Jinghong babbled As he said this, although he was complaining about Baochai, the queen was particularly satisfied after hearing it.
"Your wife cares about you, but you don't know what's good and what's wrong," the queen feigned anger.
"It's my son, so I won't tell you anymore." Zhu Jinghong shut up at the right time.
"Sheng'er is in your house. I have fallen behind a lot in my studies these days. As an elder brother, you have never taken care of me."
"Mom, you are confused. Son, how can I control Sheng'er?" Zhu Jinghong argued.
The queen then scolded a few more words, and then got down to the topic and said, "I plan to allocate Qin girl to you."
Zhen Qin is going to enter the palace. Even if the queen doesn't say anything about it, Zhu Jinghong will Will also take the initiative to bring it up.
"Those things you did, you bullied this girl, you have to treat her well in the future," Yang Qingyin reminded her with a serious expression.
"Mom, it's not my fault that my son did those stupid things," Zhu Jinghong muttered in a low voice, but the voice was just loud enough for the queen to hear.
"You bastard, what do you mean by that?" Yang Qingyin's face became serious. She knew that this boy was trying to tease her.
"Mother, this is all the fault of my daughter-in-law. She failed to take care of the affairs of the inner house. The prince should blame her." Baochai took the blame on herself.
Yang Qingyin didn't want to go into details about this matter, so she said, "Have a good life in the future and stop making troubles."
The queen knew about the current grudge between the prince and Prince Rui, and this matter was enough to annoy her. , that’s why I said this.
Zhu Jinghong was just acting like a child, but these two brothers acted with real swords and guns, and the seriousness of the problem was much higher.
Everyone here is talking, but in the east hall of Kunning Palace, Daiyu is sitting alone by the bed, weeping sadly.
Yesterday she met Zhen Qin and learned that she was about to enter the palace. Because of this, she didn't sleep well all night.
She also wanted to be with Zhu Jinghong, but it was extremely difficult and impossible to achieve.
On the one hand, she was embarrassed to face Baochai, and on the other hand, she could not convince her biological father.
According to the court system, the daughter of a Jinshi was not allowed to be a clan wife. Lin Ruhai was born as a Tanhualang, so she did not meet this rule in the first place.
Secondly, as a Qingliu official, if he sent his daughter to be brought up by the prince, the saliva of the civil servants and officials would drown him.
"If you are not comfortable saying something, girl, why not let your servant tell you something?"
"How can you keep it in your heart like this?" The worry in Zijuan's eyes was clear.
Daiyu turned her face to one side and said, "How could you understand my difficulties?"
Unexpectedly, Zijuan said bluntly, "It must be for His Highness Prince Xiang."
Good guy, these words pierced Daiyu's heart, causing her to subconsciously look around, for fear of being overheard by outsiders.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Daiyu looked at Zijuan angrily.
"Girl, I think His Highness Prince Xiang is also interested in you, why don't you let me go with him"
Before Zijuan could finish her words, Daiyu scolded, "You It’s nonsense again. The Thirteenth Master is deeply in love with Sister Bao. He is willing to disobey the Holy Emperor and the Empress for her. How can he have any other woman in his eyes?”
If Zhu Jinghong knew that he was so professional in Daiyu’s eyes. Love, I'm afraid I will be ashamed.
Unlike Daiyu who was sad, Zhen Qin in Ningshou Palace was so happy that Concubine Zhen reminded her several times to restrain herself.
"According to my wishes, I did not plan to let you enter the royal family. I will let you out of the palace after two years and let your father find a good family for you."
Of course, this was not Concubine Zhen’s original idea, but she changed it after being reminded by the Supreme Emperor.
"After entering the gate of Prince Xiang's Mansion, you must be careful in your words and deeds in the future, and don't show your thoughts clearly."
"I know," Zhen Qin replied seriously.
Here, Concubine Zhen continued to remind her. It was not until people from Kunning Palace came to invite her that she reluctantly let her grandniece go.
Outside Ningshou Gate, watching Zhen Qin being led away by people from Kunning Palace, Concubine Zhen’s eyes were filled with tears.
Hui sighed and returned to Ningshou Palace. At this time, the soup had been brewed and was delivered to the Supreme Emperor by Princess Zhen herself.
The Supreme Emperor is very old. He spends most of his time basking in the sun on the porch. He seldom speaks, even when facing Concubine Zhen.
But seeing his wife unhappy today, he still took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong with you?"
Sitting on the brocade stool beside Zhu Xingkan, Concubine Zhen took the Picking up the spoon, he said, "Girl Qin has entered Prince Xiang's Mansion. I'm still a little worried about her."
"No need to worry too much."
Swallowing the decoction fed by Princess Zhen, Zhu After Xinkan swallowed it, she said, "You may not think that Xiao Shisan is rude, but he is a good boy and he is kind at heart."
At this moment, there was no one around, and Concubine Zhen couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, sir." I really don’t understand why you are so kind to Prince Xiang among all the emperors and grandsons."
Glancing at his wife, Zhu Xinkan said slowly, "I said he is a good boy."
< p>"I still don't understand""After that, he was the only one who erected a tomb for his cousins"
"Erect a tomb"
< p>Although she said these two words, what Concubine Zhen was thinking about was the fate of Zhu Jinghong's cousins.The Supreme Emperor was thousands of miles away, but as his beloved concubine, she was in the harem. Prince Li and King Ying'e's heirs were somewhat desperate and hid in the harem.
So Concubine Zhen saw with her own eyes that the Yiwei Si and the Longjing Guards who originally guarded the royal family took away the emperor's grandchildren like piglets. In the end, all the Huang nobles were executed in these days.
In the days before the matter was resolved peacefully, Concubine Zhen, who lived in the harem, was in fear every day. She was awakened by nightmares many times in the middle of the night.
"Yes, they were a few small mounds of earth he piled with his hands at the corner of the palace wall. I didn't live in Ningshou Palace at that time, and I happened to take a fancy to them while walking"
During the two months when Zhu Xianming became the crown prince, Zhu Xinkan still lived in Qianqing Palace, and his personal freedom was not restricted too much, unlike later when he had to stay in Ningshou Palace.
"How old was he then?" Concubine Zhen said in surprise.
"About four or five years old, I can't remember clearly"
"No wonder, no wonder"
Here the two emperors were chatting, while on the other side Zhen Qin has arrived at Kunning Palace.
Zhen Qin, who was originally lively and active, became much shy when entering the palace, which even surprised Zhu Jinghong.
"Girl Qin, please go out of the palace today, and then the Shangyi Bureau will come to the house to announce the order"
"I will obey the order of the empress"
Zhen Qin kowtowed with a calm expression. This was the most proud moment in her life, and she was able to suppress her joy and not show it.
"Old Thirteen"
"My son is here"
"You can't bully Qin girl anymore" Yang Qingyin said slowly.
Zhu Jinghong said very directly, "My son never bullies others."
Then Yang Qingyin looked at Baochai again and said, "Baochai, girl Qin acts impulsively. Please look after her more"
"My daughter-in-law has a close relationship with Sister Qin, so I should take more care of her," Baochai solemnly replied.
The Queen specifically ordered this matter to compensate Zhen Qin. After all, her son was really ridiculous this time.
The queen then gave many instructions, and finally left Zhu Jinghong and others to have lunch before letting them go out of the palace.
With one less person around her, Zhu Yunsheng returned to the dormitory feeling empty. It was not until she saw Daiyu Xiangyun that she felt better.
"The princess is back." Xiangyun was the first to greet her, and then Daiyu followed.
"Alas" Zhu Yunsheng sighed.
"Princess, what's wrong?" Xiangyun asked.
Zhu Yunsheng replied, "We are missing another person in the palace."
"From now on, the three of us will depend on each other." Zhu Yunsheng held Xiangyun's hand tightly.
Xiang Yun persuaded, "Sister Qin got her wish, and the princess should be happy for her. Besides, she is not going back to Jinling and will still be seen in the future. Why should the princess be worried about this?"
After nodding slightly, Zhu Yunsheng looked at Daiyu who had been silent. He couldn't help but asked, "What's wrong with Sister Lin?"
"It's nothing. There is sand in my eyes. Just rub it and it will be gone." Okay," Daiyu replied.
"If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me." Zhu Yunsheng said very solemnly.
"It's just a sadness for spring and autumn. Princess, don't worry too much." Daiyu denied it.
When Zhen Qin was brought back to Prince Xiang’s Mansion, Baochai immediately summoned everyone in the mansion to prepare for the Queen’s decree.
As expected, the slaves from Prince Xiang’s Mansion had just arrived, and the female officials from Shangyi Bureau also came over.
The decree was announced outside the Cunxin Hall. Zhen Qin received the decree with great excitement, and almost couldn't control her emotions and cried with joy.
And she also became the first selected servant in Prince Xiang's Mansion, ranking below the side concubines and above the concubines.
Immediately afterwards, Baochai introduced Zhen Qin to the servants in the mansion and told them to serve her wholeheartedly in the future.
After finishing these things, Baochai led Zhen Qin back to Tongxin Hall and introduced Yang Jingting and Keqing.
Zhen Qin all knows these people present, but now her identity is different, and everyone needs to get to know her again.
After the conversation, Zhen Qin came to her residence, which was Lanyue Garden on the southeast side of Yin'an Hall.
At this time, the maid was still cleaning the place again, so Zhen Qin could only stay in the courtyard temporarily, looking at the place where she would live for a long time.
Compared to the east hall of Kunning Palace, this place is obviously much more spacious, allowing Zhen Qin to decorate it as she pleases.
"I want to put flowers over there, what kind of flowers?"
"I will put whatever the Thirteenth Master likes"
"Over there Plant a piece of bamboo and plant it over there."
Zhen Qin was working on her draft when someone came to report that Concubine Yang was here.
Yang Jingting is a side concubine, even if Zhen Qin does not act wellBeing strict about trivial matters, I also know that I have to go out to greet you at this time.
During this period in Ningshou Palace, Princess Zhen taught her a lot about how to deal with things, so Zhen Qin has grown greatly recently.
"Sister Ting"
"Sister Qin, congratulations to you" Yang Jingting smiled.
Yang Jingting is really happy, because with the arrival of Zhen Qin, she at least has someone to talk to.
In the palace, Keqing and Yinglian were only close to Baochai, so Yang Jingting had always been lonely.
"Thank you, Sister Ting."
Stepping forward and holding Zhen Qin's hand, Yang Jingting said with a smile, "Now that I have achieved what I wanted, I should celebrate. Over there The banquet is being prepared, we will go there together later."
"Thank you, Sister Ting," Zhen Qin said very solemnly. She was indeed touched.
"Hey, why don't you thank me? We are good sisters." Yang Jingting took Zhen Qin into her arms.
Now I still choose a waiter. Being a good sister with her is always a step too short, Zhen Qin thought. Please remember to collect it. The website is the latest and fastest without anti-theft. To find books and add books for free, you can join the qq group 952868558
