The emperor came to Guozijian and directly expelled the two prisoners from the mid-mountain hall, and at the same time issued a bunch of surprising and inexplicable decrees in one breath, and the news was like a whirlwind, and it spread all over the major official offices and wealthy mansions in the capital in an instant. Of course, Zhu Jing, the Duke of Zhao Guo, who did not go to the court on this day, also learned about it without exception.

It's just that Zhao Guogong got another news at the same time, that is, his baby daughter Zhu Ying went directly to Guozijian angrily!

"How did she sneak out? Who let her out? Although Zhu Jing has always indulged Zhu Ying, and the marriage letter with the Zhang family has passed the clear road, he still feels helpless about his daughter's short-term protection, which is simply too obvious, and has to ask with a cold face at this time, "Didn't I have an early order, let her practice archery at home today, and she is not allowed to go anywhere?" ”

However, the steward standing in front of him quickly raised his head, glanced at him with a very wonderful look, and then lowered his head: "Back to the master, the eldest lady made it clear to Mrs. Tai and Mrs., and then she went out, and she also brought more than a dozen of Zhu Hong's guards, and she went out in a dignified manner, without ...... No sneaking. ”

Very good...... It turned out to be the mother and wife who put it! Zhu Jing only felt a faint pain in his head, and then asked angrily, "What about Da Lang?" He doesn't look at his sister a little either? ”

The steward felt that the eldest prince was really wronged, but he said honestly: "Back to the master, the eldest prince went out to visit Master Ge early in the morning, saying that it was for the matter of Lord Liu, and he told you in advance. ”

Son...... Did say it to him! Seeing that no one could be angry, Zhu Jing took a deep breath and scolded angrily: "Erlang, this useless and unsuccessful thing, really me off!" ”

Poor Second Young Master...... Angered again! But he was also angry, and the steward would feel aggrieved for the eldest son, but he would not feel aggrieved for the second young master at all. Because he was very suspicious that if he said something next, he would be angered by himself.

Sure enough, scolding a person who is not here at the moment, Zhu Jing obviously doesn't find it interesting. After a few words, he stopped, and then said with a rigid face: "When Da Lang or Yingying comes back, bring them over immediately!" ”

However, as soon as his voice fell, a report came from outside: "Master, the eldest lady and Shou Gongzi are here, and they were going to come to see the master, but it just so happened that the eldest prince also came back, and now people are talking in the front yard." ”

The son and daughter who wanted to see suddenly came back together, and brought a Zhang Shou who he didn't really want to see at this time, Zhu Jing couldn't help but be stunned. However, when he heard people talking in the front yard, he was afraid that his mother or wife would take the lead again, so he hurriedly ordered, "Call them over quickly!" ”

The servant outside responded to the call, and the steward who had reported before took advantage of the vacancy and hurriedly retreated, leaving Zhu Jing alone in the study. Zhu Jing knew that today's signs were wrong, and he deliberately didn't go to the court, and wanted to take a good look at the situation, but he didn't expect that this turmoil was far beyond his expectations. At this time, he waited left and right, but he never saw Zhu Ying and them coming, and finally couldn't help it.

He didn't bother to call someone, so he strode directly to the door, but when he opened the door of the study, he found that the scholar who was supposed to be in the courtyard at any time to be called was gone. He raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then he heard a faint voice in the wind.

"What's the matter with Ah Shou, this is what I said to the emperor myself, big brother, don't be unreasonable! If I had known, I wouldn't have told you! ”

"I'm unreasonable? You are so bold that you dare to make such a request to the emperor! Don't help Zhang Shou speak, he is your future husband, you said the wrong thing, of course he should help you fill in the gaps, and you can't indulge in your temperament! ”

Listening to the sound of this quarrel as if it was Zhu Ying and Zhu Tingfang's, Zhu Jing couldn't help but be amazed. Zhu Tingfang protects this sister everywhere on weekdays, what is it now that can make him, the eldest son who is more stable than him, so out of shape? Although he even has a subconscious mentality of watching the excitement, he still remembers the duty of being a father in the end.

When he arrived in the front yard, he saw that all the people who were bustling avoided the distance, and they didn't dare to point and whisper, but the expressions on his face were as subtle as when he had just heard the movement, and he was even more reluctant to disperse. Obviously, Zhu Tingfang, the eldest brother, and Zhu Ying, the younger sister, had a dispute, it was simply a strange news that the sun hit the west, and no one had ever seen it and heard of it.

Zhang Shou stood helplessly between the two brothers and sisters, holding Zhu Ying in one hand and whispering to persuade something, but Zhu Tingfang not only did not stop fighting, but flicked his sleeves in annoyance and said: "Okay, since you have found me such a tricky errand, don't pretend to be a good person here!" Yingying comes and goes, not for you? ”

Zhang Shou was about to speak, when he saw Zhu Jing rushing over, he knew that this front yard was not the place to speak, but he didn't expect that after Zhu Ying met Zhu Tingfang, he would proudly say the words between him and the emperor, and Zhu Tingfang, a steady person, would suddenly burst into trouble on the spot. Therefore, taking advantage of Zhu Jing coming over, he immediately grabbed Zhu Ying without saying anything.

"Okay, Yingying, how can you talk to your eldest brother like this? You see, Zhao Guogong is also here, let's go to Qing'an Hall. Seeing that Zhu Ying was still making trouble, he sighed and whispered: "I have already let your father see your brother and sister quarreling, do you want others to laugh at your brother and sister for losing harmony?" ”

Others may not be able to hear Zhang Shou's extremely low voice, but Zhu Tingfang, who is close, and Zhu Jing, who has excellent ear power, can hear it clearly. Zhu Tingfang was already a little impulsive, but when he saw Zhu Ying turning his head and glaring at Zhang Shou, he was angry but close, but this style was fleeting, and then Zhu Ying stepped forward and apologized to him in a whisper, and he was in an extremely complicated mood.

The younger sister is about to marry the person she likes, and the one who is the older brother should indeed be happy; However, my sister really listens to her sweetheart too much, how can he, who is an older brother, be happy? He was really worried that one day Zhang Shou would sell Zhu Ying, but Zhu Ying would still help him count the money! So, he was silent for a moment, and then he responded with a slight bow, and then turned and left.

But a few steps after he walked out, he heard Zhu Ying's unhappy voice behind him: "Big brother, are you still angry with me?" But he scolded me first! I ......"

Although Zhu Ying's voice was quickly cut off, and she didn't know whether she was persuaded by Zhang Shou or stopped by her own awakening, Zhu Tingfang was still in a bad mood. It wasn't until he walked into Qing'an Hall first and saw that Jiu Niang actually came out, and he thought that she must have known about the rumors of the brother and sister fighting just now, so he was a little embarrassed.

How old is he, and he is still angry with his sister...... It's not that he doesn't know that she's the kind of person who blurts out the consequences without hesitation!

Zhu Tingfang involuntarily lowered his head and said softly: "Mother......"

"Yingying is not sensible, and Erlang has never looked like an elder brother, thanks to you for taking care of them all these years. If Yingying says the wrong thing, I'll ask her to apologize to you when I go back. ”

Speaking of this, Jiu Niang glanced at the pair of beautiful people who came side by side not far away, but ignored Zhu Jing who was walking in front of them. It wasn't until Zhu Jing had already arrived in front of her that she suddenly woke up.

She didn't pay much attention to Zhu Jing, who had a strange face, and motioned for the father and son to go in together, and deliberately stayed there to continue to wait for Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying, and after the people approached, she straightened up and said, "Yingying, why did you fight with your eldest brother in the front yard?" Ah Shou, you too, Yingying is not sensible, you should also stop her. Even if the rules are strict at home, it is inevitable that there will be people who chew their tongues outside. ”

Without waiting for Zhu Ying, who was pouting and unhappy, to speak, Zhang Shou hurriedly said: "Aunt Jiu, everything started because of me, Yingying was also angry for a while, and just made a very outrageous request to the emperor, so the eldest brother became angry when he heard about it. ”

As he spoke, he whispered what the emperor said before and the ins and outs of Zhu Ying's coming. However, as soon as the words fell, he saw Jiuniang raise his eyebrows and say: "They want you to bear the little bit of their royal?" If the emperor doesn't give Yingying this promise, then even if Da Lang has this ability, he can't go! ”

When Zhu Ying heard her mother say this, she was immediately overjoyed: "That's right, that's why I couldn't be angry and said that in front of the emperor!" In the past, I thought that the second prince was vicious, but now look at the eldest prince, it is called faceless and skinless, and ruthless! He has caused such a monstrous disaster, but he wants others to clean up the mess for him, of course, he has to pay the price! ”

Zhang Shou saw Jiuniang's face full of approval, and he was speechless. If there is a daughter, there must be a mother, Zhu Ying's temper is clearly carved out of the same mold as Jiu Niang! He glanced at the maids and servants in the courtyard in front of Qing'an Hall, and saw that everyone lowered their hands and bowed their heads, with an expression that I didn't see anything and didn't hear anything, so he hurriedly invited the mother and daughter into the house.

And when his wife and daughter were talking there, Zhu Jing could also hear it clearly, and then he heard Zhu Tingfang whisper to Mrs. Tai to explain what Zhu Ying said and forcibly asked the emperor to make a promise, and he naturally understood the reason why the eldest son was rarely angry.

The son is so reckless, but the emperor still has to clean up the mess for him, he is already very aggrieved, and Zhu Ying still has to force the emperor to promise to punish him...... Although it was done reasonably, what if the emperor was in a bad mood, not only did he not agree, but turned his face on the spot?

Although the emperor has always treated Zhu Ying like his own daughter, there are some risks that have to be guarded against!

What an uneasy girl...... It's also to blame Zhang Shou, he doesn't know how to persuade him!

When Zhu Jing was thinking like this, Jiu Niang and Zhu Ying had already come in, and Zhang Shou was close behind. At this time, Mrs. Tai had already listened to Zhu Tingfang's report, and at this time, seeing Jiuniang pulling Zhu Ying with a smile, the mother and daughter looked reasonable, she couldn't help but shake her head and said: "Although Yingying is a little reckless, but the emperor knows her character, she wants to run over but doesn't say anything, it seems fake." ”

"Just say it, such a thing that can't support the wall with mud, don't be afraid of him making a comeback in the future. Knowing the emperor's attitude, Da Lang can also go to Cangzhou calmly and conveniently. Although there are many people in the court who can clean up the situation, in terms of identity, talent, and character, there is indeed no one more suitable than Da Lang. Not to mention ......"

Mrs. Tai paused, and then said with a smile: "Dalang, haven't you been running for your mentor all along?" If you can clean up the situation smoothly in Cangzhou, it should be about the same. ”

"It's easier said than done." Although Zhu Tingfang said that he stood silently, Zhu Jing couldn't help but speak, "I also found out about the previous situation in Cangzhou, the collusion between officials and businessmen, and the eldest prince profited from it, it was like a nest of snakes and rats, colluding, and now in order to cover up, most of them will use some more appalling means, and I don't know if Da Lang can have time in the past!" ”

Zhu Jing's judgment was based on his own news channels and experience, and naturally no one present would doubt it. And immediately after, Zhang Shou received an eye knife from his father-in-law.

"The bell must be tied to the bell, Zhang Shou, things have progressed to this situation, shouldn't you point and point to Dalang?"

"No pointers." Zhang Shou knew that he couldn't avoid this, so he immediately told the information mentioned by the emperor in detail, and then talked about the methods used by Zhang Chen, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu in Xingtai.

When I heard that Zhang Chen pretended to be the henchmen of the second prince and deceived those big families in Xingtai, and then turned his left hand to his right hand to do the operation, the people in the room were amazed, and Jiu Niang couldn't help laughing: "In the past, I heard Yingying mention Zhang Chen, only saying that he would only rely on his family background, but the second ancestor of the defeated family, I didn't expect to have such a ability!" ”

"Isn't Ashou teaching well?" Zhu Ying boasted happily, "Otherwise, Zhang Chen will just be in the capital!" ”

"It is also the full support of Qin Guogong." Zhang Shou mentioned the money and people that Qin Guogong gave to Zhang Chen, Zhu Jing and Zhu Tingfang were only surprised, but Mrs. Tai and Jiuniang looked at each other and smiled.

"I'm afraid it's not just Qin Guogong, although Mrs. Qin Guo has always listened to Qin Guogong in everything, but her son is doing such a big thing when she goes out, can she, as a mother, not worry? Don't talk about money, if you want her to give everything she has, she will also help. If Qin Guogong really ignores Zhang Chen, believe it or not, Mrs. Qin Guo can scratch her face out of flowers? ”

When she said this, Mrs. Tai was a little joking, but Jiuniang nodded and said, "If I, Da Lang Erlang is suffering outside, I naturally can't sit idly by." Yingying forget it, she will make a fuss, and there is Ah Shou, so she can't suffer a loss. ”

"Mother, you're so eccentric!" Zhu Ying suddenly shouted angrily, "Then the eldest brother went out this time, what did you give him?" ”

My sister was still arguing with herself just now, but now she turned around and asked Jiuniang for benefits for herself, Zhu Tingfang only felt that it was really mixed. Seeing that Jiu Niang glanced at him, and then said something with a smile, he couldn't help but be a little frightened.

"Like Qin Guogong, ask for money for money, and ask people for people. Of course, everyone is your father's, but I don't have anyone. Speaking of this, Jiu Niang said with a smile, "It's Yingying, you and Ah Shou, shouldn't you give your eldest brother a big change into a living person?" ”
