Chapter Eleven: Zhang Yan

He was still a little tender, and Zhu Yinglong secretly blamed himself in his heart. If it weren't for Zhou Huaian's internal support, he would have been touched clearly. When he remembered it, his neck would be chilly, so Zhu Yinglong became more cautious. Especially that night he ordered Zuo Qianhu to blame. Wei Zhongxian probably began to doubt whether he was really stupid or whether his stupid illness had been cured. However, he couldn't catch his own handle because his cheap brother wanted to recover from his illness. So the news that he was not stupid was only bad, and there was no good thing for him. Wei Zhongxian probably wouldn't tell the news about Tianqi Emperor even if he knew it, because only if he was not cured, then he would learn Lu Buwei's strange goods and tricks that would be effective!

Just as Zhu Yinglong was busy planning to rescue Xiong Tingbi by stealing the slander and replacing the pillars, an imperial edict came down. His fief was enfeoffed to Kaifeng, Henan, and he could go there. The court also allocated him a resettlement fee of 100,000 taels of silver and a total of 20,000 hectares of land in Kaifeng and around. All the vassal kings who were enfeoffed were of this specification. Zhu Yinglong was caught off guard by this news. Although this was what he wanted, he didn't want to go to the fiefdom so rush now. He wanted to leave some foundation in the capital and use it when he returned to the capital in the future. But as soon as he got a clue, he let Wei Zhongxian destroy it. It seemed that he had already had a dike for himself. Zhou Huaian's identity was confirmed by Xiong Hu, and his brother Xiong Zhaolian was also contacted. It seemed that he had to take action in advance. It was time for heaven to change.

Zhu Yinglong asked Wang Chengen to go to the inner palace for a while, and immediately knew why he was suddenly sent to the fiefdom. Wei Zhongxian appeared to be beaten without saying a word at all, but in fact he had already hated him. So he made trouble in front of Emperor Tianqi and wanted to kick him out of the capital early. Emperor Tianqi was confused by his sweet words. He naively believed Wei Zhongxian's words and an imperial edict made him go to the fiefdom. However, his brotherly love was deep. The reward given by him, a cheap brother, was more than his three uncles and princes a year ago. He also said that he would set a date to leave the capital and he saw him off in person. Zhu Yinglong was really moved. If it weren't for a Wei Zhongxian standing in the middle, where would he find such a good brother? But this was only the superficial reason. Perhaps only Wei Zhongxian could understand the deep reason.

As soon as he received the imperial edict, a message came from the palace saying that Queen Zhang wanted to see him. Zhu Yinglong was very puzzled, but he still stood up and rushed to the palace.

In Kunning Palace, Zhu Yinglong met the virtuous and virtuous Empress Zhang, who was only in her early twenties and was virtuous and strong. Empress Zhang was named Zhang Yan, the daughter of Taikangbo Zhang Guoji, and the famous Empress Yian in history. This smart and steadfast woman was strong and never bought Wei Zhongxian's account. Zhu Youjian successfully ascended the throne with her strong help. She was also Zhu Yinglong's favorite. Unfortunately, he did not possess Zhu Youxiao, otherwise the couple would be able to turn the world together at that time. But he was glad that he possessed Zhu Youjian because his cheap brother was suffering from severe uremia and was extremely difficult to cure in later generations. Don't think about this time and space now.

"Brother Zhu Youjian has seen the emperor's sister-in-law!" Zhu Yinglong had not seen Empress Zhang for a long time. He glanced secretly and found that her beautiful face had lost a lot of weight. The worries in her eyes became deeper. She couldn't help but feel regret and helpless towards her in her heart. Although Zhu Youjian treated her well, marrying such a husband is the greatest misfortune of a virtuous woman.

"Youjian, you are here, get up quickly and sit down." Queen Zhang looked at Zhu Youjian. Oh, it should be Zhu Yinglong's gradually mature face. She seemed to be a little distracted. She was stunned for a while and did not notice Zhu Yinglong's name. Anyway, she had accepted the change from "sister" to "emperor sister", and the distance between the two had been widened.

"Sister-in-law Xie." Zhu Yinglong stood up uneasily and sat down on the side of the brocade bench. He couldn't help but guess what happened to Empress Zhang suddenly summoned her.

"Your prosecutor, after the vassal kings are married, they have to go to their fiefdoms to live in the fiefdom. They cannot stay in the capital. This is the ancestral system, and I can't do anything about it. You are in poor health. You must prepare well along the way. It doesn't matter if you are late. The emperor is the only brother you are left, and you will not blame you." Queen Zhang thought for a long time before speaking.

"I know, my brother Xie Huangshao cares." Zhu Yinglong replied in a formulaic manner.

Suddenly, Zhu Yinglong found that the atmosphere of the space he was in was a little different, and the air emitted an indescribable fragrance. When he looked up, a hot gaze was looking at him. This gaze was of Queen Zhang, and his eyes were focused and full of tenderness. Zhu Yinglong's red heart was suddenly raised to the door of his throat, and he felt very nervous. This Queen Zhang could not have affection for Zhu Youjian, it was definitely the biggest gossip in the history of the late Ming Dynasty, but he immediately felt that his dirty thoughts were

Despicable, how could such a virtuous woman have a flaw? Her mother's identity as a world-class person is still his brother-in-law. It is absolutely impossible. She is still a virgin. This is a conclusion drawn after many arguments. This affectionate look should be the kind of sibling relationship, because he remembers that Yanhong once told him that Zhu Youjian used to call Queen Zhang "sister". This sister's eyes should look like this when she looked at her brother.

"I'll give it to you here to Kaifeng. Sister, I can also give it to you. This is a jade pendant. I have carried it with me since I was a child. I have the ability to exorcise evil spirits, so you can bring it with me." Queen Zhang took a piece of ancient jade from her neck and handed it to Zhu Yinglong's hand.

Zhu Yinglong was shocked. There was also a word "Yan" on the jade pendant. He knew it was Queen Zhang's close love, and most of them were used by men and women to make love. Is it really a sibling relationship for her? Zhu Yinglong subconsciously touched the jade pendant that still had warmth, and suddenly fell into a confusion. What if Queen Zhang really had affection for Zhu Youjian? He said in a panic: "I can't accept such a precious gift from my sister-in-law!" He reached out and returned the jade pendant.

"Yujian, have you received all my sister's feelings? Since you woke up, you have never called me "sister". Do you know how sad my sister is?" Queen Zhang suddenly remembered everything before and said sadly.

Zhu Yinglong's mind was quickly turned. Today's incident was completely beyond the history he knew. Could it be that after Queen Zhang was disappointed with her husband, she moved her feelings to Zhu Youjian, who was four years younger than her? In later generations, there were many loves between young and old, which was dozens of years apart. In this time and space, the emperor chose a showgirl once a few years, and the age difference was not small. Zhu Yinglong had the idea of ​​modern people, and age was not a problem for her, but what he couldn't accept was that Queen Zhang actually fell in love with her husband's younger brother. This was definitely a big scandal for the royal family. Zhu Yinglong suddenly felt that he was being roasted on the fire, but his hands and feet were cold. Between the cold and hot, a layer of sweat suddenly appeared on Zhu Yinglong's forehead.

"Yujian, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Or..." Queen Zhang frowned and leaned her upper body towards Zhu Yinglong. She found that something seemed wrong with Zhu Yinglong and called softly. When the two of them were talking, she had already stepped back and was not afraid of being seen for a moment.

"Oh, no, sister, the jade pendant is your beloved thing. Brother, no, you can't accept it." Zhu Yinglong said in a panic. In front of Queen Zhang, he felt that even if he lived for twenty-five years, he would still be a younger brother.

Queen Zhang's eyes were a little rosy and said, "Sister knows. You married three princesses. You have already forgotten your sister's mind. Now you are so embarrassed that you are afraid that you will never see you in your life. My sister is afraid that you will forget your sister, so she gave you this jade pendant. I hope you don't forget your sister. But I didn't know that before the person left, she had already left her sister in her heart."

After hearing Queen Zhang's sorrowful accusations, Zhu Yinglong's whole body seemed to be washed by water, and his heart and back were all wet. This was completely a parting words between lovers, but now he spoke between his uncle and sister-in-law. If Zhu Yinglong could not hear that Queen Zhang had great affection for Zhu Youjian, he would really jump into the Jinshui River. However, he was not the Zhu Youjian of the past, and he calculated the confusing account to himself. And at this time, Zhu Yinglong was in a bad mood.

When he spoke again, Zhu Yinglong found that his voice was actually a little hoarse. This was really fatal. If a man's voice was hoarse, it would be a sign of qing movement for women. So it sounded like he had no affection and became affectionate. There was no way. He had already opened his mouth and had to say, "Sister, don't say anything. Yujian has not forgotten his sister's care, but this jade pendant is too expensive. I really can't take it. If there were other things, my brother would never refuse."

Queen Zhang is also a smart person. She understood the meaning of the words as soon as she heard it. When Zhu Youjian was about to leave, she was a little confused. However, the things she gave could be taken back, but the sentiment could not be brought back. There was nothing between her uncle and sister-in-law, but Emperor Tianqi favored Wei Zhongxian and "Madam Fengsheng" fornicating the palace. Although she did not neglect her as the queen, the deep palace was lonely. Her husband was addicted to carpenter work, so she could only talk to this uncle who was four years younger than her. After a while, she became affectionate. Zhu Youjian fell into the ground and fell into a coma. She even cried secretly. Later, after waking up, she became stupid. She didn't.

She cried once and kept chanting scriptures to pray for him. Then Zhu Youjian got married, and her cheeks were full of tears in her dream. She suddenly went to the fiefdom and might never see her in her life. Zhang Yan, who had just understood what love is, couldn't wait to see Zhu Youjian, one was to show her affection, and the other was to break this unknown love between uncle and sister-in-law. This might be the only time she had in her life. When she left the capital, she was the time when her love was broken. After Zhu Youjian left, she was still the queen of the mother's mother. Zhu Youjian was really her uncle, and there was nothing else. She firmly handed over and said, "This is the sister's wish, you don't have to refuse."

Zhu Yinglong had no choice but to accept the affection that made it difficult for him to explain clearly.

When the love is broken, it is the beginning of a new relationship, because he is not Zhu Youjian, and Zhang Yan's fate will be rewritten because of him. Will it be? How should I face this beautiful woman who may support herself in the throne in the future? Zhu Yinglong left the Forbidden City with the jade pendant of the beauty and was full of melancholy.

Zhu Yinglong kept playing with the jade pendant in his hand. This incident was completely unexpected. Even if someone knew about it, he would probably not write it in the history books. After all, Empress Zhang and Zhu Youjian were only in a relationship, and did not do shameful things. Later historians would never have thought that Emperor Chongzhen would have such a relationship with Empress Yian. Then the reason behind Zhu Youjian's ascension to the throne was worthy of fun. Alas, the mess is all messy, and history is still the same history, but it is not the history that Zhu Yinglong knew. Zhu Yinglong put away the jade pendant that made him upset and went to discuss the rescue of Xiong Tingbi with Wang Chengen.

In order to repay his kindness, Zhou Huaian naturally agreed unshirkablely, but this matter was too dangerous. He had to leave the Jinyiwei after the death row prisoner who was replaced, so everything had to be arranged without any leakage. Xiong Hu's brother Xiong Zhaolian was also taken over by Zhu Yinglong. Xiong Hu was too late when he found out.

At this point, the Xiong brother and sister have been completely controlled by Zhu Yinglong.
