Zhu Yujiao's face did not have a trace of surprise, she knew that since she entered the palace, Uncle Zheng had set up a "night owl" in the palace as his secret guard, in case of emergency, the chamberlain, the palace maid and so on were involved.

It's just that Zhu Yujiao didn't have the intention to ascend to the big treasure, so she didn't care about it, just acquiesced.

But at this time, Zhu Yujiao needs to use this secret guard.

Zhu Yujiao asked calmly: "How can you prove it?" ”

The maid took out a silver medal from her chest and offered it with both hands.

Zhu Yujiao glanced at it, she had seen this kind of brand in Uncle Zheng's hands, but it was just jade in Uncle Zheng's hands.

"Why did you come to see Hongu?"

"Lord, the head of the stall is not dead."

Zhu Yujiao's eyes lit up, her face softened, and she was happy in her heart, His Majesty finally remembered the love of brother and sister and did not kill Uncle Zheng.

This warmth instantly overturned Zhu Yujiao's already determined mind.

But the palace maid's next words made Zhu Yujiao's heart instantly cold.

"The head of the stall was escorted by His Majesty to a ruined hall outside the west gate of the north. From the perspective of slaves and maids, they just want to judge the night owl in the palace from the big stall. ”

Zhu Yujiao's face became colder and colder.

"The head of the stall has told him before that if something happens to him, the slave and maid will reveal their identities to the master, and everything will be ordered by the master. The head of the stall also confessed, please believe him, he will never confide in anything about the night owl. ”

Zhu Yujiao got up and asked, "How many of you are there?" ”

"In addition to the big stall head and slave maids, there is also a third-stall head and the remaining sixty-three people, all over the palace."

Zhu Yujiao waved her hand lightly and said, "Let's retreat first, this palace has to think about it...... Think about it! ”

"Yes." The palace maid took a few steps back, then stopped and said, "Taifu risked his life to block the holy driver's direct advice at Wulong Bridge, but he angered His Majesty, and was ordered to be driven out of the palace by His Majesty, and he also ordered to besiege Taifu's Mansion. ”

"Hongu knows."

……。

Zhenguo Mansion.

It's empty.

Zhou Simin dismissed everyone, even the one hundred and sixty guards of the Zhenguo Mansion.

When the emperor wants to kill people, the three hundred guards are nothing more than adding a few more corpses.

Zhou Simin is just a little woman, a once brutal little woman, except for when she was not married, she fought with Wu for a few words.

She has almost no quarrel with the world, and the biggest hope in her heart now is just to continue the incense for the Wu family.

But she now knows that this is impossible.

Because the emperor, her cousin, Zhu Cihong, who she once thought was the same as Zhu Yujiao, was a king of Zhongxing, wanted to kill her!

Zhou Simin figured it out.

There is no way to hide, there is no way to escape, there is no way to escape, naturally there is only to figure it out.

Then let's face it calmly.

Because she is the mistress of the Zhenguo Mansion.

Zhou Simin's frightened heart was calmed by this pride.

In one year, he attacked the people with outnumbered, recovered the land of the ten provinces, turned the tide in the fall, helped the building to fall, and saved the people from fire and water.

Looking at the world, who is the one who gives up my husband?

Listening to the sound of the door breaking, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer.

Zhou Simin was calmer, she smiled, and smiled very sweetly.

It's just that she has a trace of regret in her heart, if she can give birth to a son for her husband, it would be great.

Zhu Cihong was indeed a little surprised.

He was surprised by Zhou Simin's calmness.

This shouldn't be the reaction of Zhou Simin in his heart, shouldn't this little woman be so frightened that she knelt at her feet and confessed her grandfather's sins?

"Why don't you salute when you see me?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, this is the Zhenguo Mansion, although the concubine is the side room of the husband, but the husband has not yet married a wife. If His Majesty sends someone to inform him before coming, the concubine is dressed in court clothes and kneels outside the door to greet the holy driver. But His Majesty broke into the door, like a thief, let me ask, what kind of courtesy should the concubine use to face the person who wants to kill me? ”

Zhu Cihong is not angry, but anyone who can control everything will not be angry easily, because he does not need to be angry.

"I underestimate you. I have to admit that you are indeed qualified to speak to me on his behalf. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"When did I say I was going to kill you?"

"That's because Your Majesty is afraid that my husband will rebel!"

Zhu Cihong nodded and said, "You're right, I'm really afraid of him. ”

Because they were afraid of him, they wanted to destroy him.

People are like this, for the things and things they are afraid of, the first choice subconsciously is to destroy them.

Irreproachable.

Zhou Simin actually agreed, she nodded and said, "Your Majesty is telling the truth. ”

"I don't have to lie."

Yes, there is no need to lie to those who have control over their life and death.

Zhou Simin sighed: "Actually, Your Majesty and your husband have roughly the same goal, and they could have gotten along with each other. ”

Zhu Cihong also agreed, he nodded and said: "I also thought that I could get along with his monarchs and ministers, especially when I was hidden in Hangzhou, I admired his great military exploits very much. ”

"But after His Majesty ascended the throne, he finally chose to break up." A trace of sadness flashed in Zhou Simin's eyes.

"Nope." Zhu Cihong shook his head and said, "I gave him a chance before he ascended the throne, as long as he was willing to give up his military power, I could crown him as a king with a different surname, and even took the sin of lying that he was a descendant of Huizong that day, justified his name, and promised to marry Changping to him." But he rejected my kindness. When I heard the people of Hangzhou shouting at him, and when I heard that even the first assistant Chen Zilong also supported him in the court, I knew that he was just a Cao Apu and the like. ”

Zhou Simin asked, "So, the concubine was involved by her husband, so she has today's difficulties?" ”

Zhu Cihong shook his head and said, "No, it should be that he was involved by you." Anyway, he's loyal to the Ming Dynasty right now, and I could have tolerated him for a little longer. But the most intolerable thing for me is that you are still alive. As soon as I see you, I will think of Zhou Kui's old horseman, I hate! ”

Zhou Simin got up and bowed solemnly to Zhu Cihong.

Zhu Cihong was a little surprised, "Do you want to beg for my life?" ”

Zhou Simin got up and sat back in his original position, and said: "My grandfather is guilty, and the concubine, as his descendant, should be guilty to His Majesty." The concubine also just heard about this past from the eldest princess. Although it is unconfirmed, I think that His Majesty will not frame his maternal grandfather, so the concubine chooses to believe His Majesty's testimony. But what the concubine wants to say is that for the sake of your aunt's spirit in the sky, please give the Zhou family a decent look. ”

Zhu Cihong actually nodded and said, "As long as the Zhou family goes to Huangquan to confess their guilt to the queen mother, I can give the Zhou family a decent look." ”

Zhou Simin sighed, closed his eyes and said, "Okay." Your Majesty can do it. ”

I didn't want Zhu Cihong but said with a smile: "I said when I came in, I don't want to kill you yet, at least not today." ”

Zhou Simin opened his eyes in surprise and asked, "Then Your Majesty broke into the door today, what happened?" ”

"Take you back to the palace."

Zhou Simin suddenly understood, "Your Majesty wants to be a concubine?" ”

"You're smart."
