Chapter Thirteen: Letter (2)

"Prince, the princess is here!" As Wang Chengen shouted, the huge living room and the courtyard were all quieted down.

Zhu Yinglong held Zhou Yingning's hand and followed Tian. Ye Ernv walked into the living room from the back hall. Zhu Yinglong wanted to play her role well, and there was no joy or anger on her face. Zhou Yingning was the princess of the king. Her husband was on birthday. She had nothing to hide. Naturally, she walked out with a smile. For a moment, she took away the attention of many men present. Even Tian and Ye Ernv received much more attention than Zhu Yinglong, the birthday boy. Tian Shuying was the master of the princess who forced her to rob her in the street a few days ago. Meiyan

He is moving, humble and decent, and some people are even jealous in their hearts. How could this "silly" King Xin be so lucky to marry such a woman as a concubine? It's a pity that King Xin is actually a wood, and all the three beautiful princesses are still virgins. A while ago, it was not the legend that King Xin is a manly style. Since the princess was robbed, King Xin led people to surround Kaifeng Prefecture to rescue people, it has calmed down a lot. Now it seems that King Xin is an incompetent? Many people have such thoughts in their hearts and screamed in their hearts.

"I believe in the prince, I am polite!" A middle-aged eunuch in the palace dress with a fifth-rank eunuch in the palace, accompanied by the Henan governor Cui Chengxiu, approached Zhu Youjian and bowed to salute, but the smile on his face was fake at first glance, and he was smiling but not smiling.

Before Zhu Yinglong could speak, Wang Chengen, who was standing next to him, stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "It turns out that it is Eunuch Tu from the imperial kitchen. You are not serving the emperor in the capital, why did you come to Kaifeng?"

The old man Tu grinned, revealing two rows of yellow teeth, and was indescribable disgusting, and then said, "Our family is here to celebrate the birthday of the prince. You know, you know, the emperor's order is hard to violate!" At the end of his speech, he sighed, full of helplessness.

Wang Chengen sneered in secret several times, stopped talking, stepped aside, and looked calm.

"Rely to the prince and obey the order!" Eunuch Tu took out a yellow edge from his arms. Two flying yellow dragons and the words "Imperial Imperial" were rusted on the bright yellow silk on it, and shouted loudly at the top of it.

"Pu" hundreds of times, Zhu Yinglong took the lead in kneeling down, and everyone inside and outside also knelt down.

"In accordance with the heavens, the emperor ordered: Now the emperor's brother will be given a special reward for the 16th birthday of his birthday, two pairs of white jade Ruyi, eight sets of gold and silver utensils, sixteen pairs of jade agate, twenty volumes of various silk and silk cloth, and forty jars of imperial wine. I admire this!"

"Thank you for your kindness!" Zhu Yinglong breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the imperial edict and said loudly.

Zhu Yinglong stood up and took the imperial edict. Eunuch Tu suddenly smiled mysteriously, took out a letter from his arms, and quietly stuffed it into Zhu Yinglong's hand when everyone was not paying attention. Zhu Yinglong hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should take it or not, but heard Eunuch Tu whisper in his ear: "Prince, before leaving the palace, the Queen asked our family to hand this letter to the prince. The prince immediately burned it down after seeing the letter!"

Zhu Yinglong was shocked all over, trying hard to prevent his emotions from appearing on his face. He had no choice but to accept the letter. No one should know the matter between him and the queen. Why did he hand it over to him secretly? Whose person is this Eunuch Tu? For a moment, his head was completely confused, so he agreed vaguely.

The internal magistrate was not allowed to make friends with foreign vassals, and Eunuch Tu, who came to announce the imperial edict, was not allowed to stay here for a long time. After getting a reward, he quickly took the people back to the inn after receiving a large red envelope.

In the next birthday celebration, Zhu Yinglong was tricked by someone like a puppet, and his mind was tied up by the letter from the Queen who was stuffed into his arms.

The banquet was not yet ordinary. Zhou Yingning, who was careful, found that her husband was full of thoughts and didn't seem to have pretended to be deliberately. However, she didn't know that it was caused by a letter. She felt suspicious and found a gap. She asked in a low voice: "Prince, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

It was not only uncomfortable, but he was simply clueless. The brother of the cheap one suddenly issued an order to reward him as expected. What was worried about was why Zhou Huaian did not send the news back in time this time? Did something happen to him in the capital? And the queen's letter was cut off before leaving? How could she write a letter to herself? She also asked someone to send it secretly. This Eunuch Tu was originally Wei Zhongxian's person, and even if she wrote to herself, she would not entrust him to him? There must be any conspiracy in this, whether it was against him or the queen? Hearing Zhou Yingning's concern, he went with the flow and said, "Discomfortable" and took Xu Yingyuan away.

Zhu Yinglong was in a mess. Xiong Zhaolian, who hurriedly walked around the birthday party and headed straight to the backyard of the royal palace, was even more anxious. He had important information to report, and it was sent back after several twists and turns in Zhou Huaian in the capital. The two happened to run into each other.

"Prince, something is not good. Wei Zhongxian encouraged the emperor to depose the queen!" Xiong Zhaolian and Zhu Yinglong said anxiously as soon as they walked into the study.

"What did you say?" Zhu Yinglong was shocked and fell on the chair. Suddenly, he was blessed and everything suddenly became clear. He asked, "What's the reason?"

"The news from Brother Zhou said that Wei Zhongxian planned to bribe a death row prisoner and asked him to say that Empress Zhang was his affair with the wife of Taikangbo Zhang Guoji who gave birth to Empress Zhang, who committed the crime of deceiving the emperor and was not worthy of his mother's favor in the world, and encouraged the emperor to depose the queen." Xiong Zhaolian narrated.

As far as he knows, Emperor Tianqi and Empress Zhang have a good relationship. Zhu Youjian was able to ascend to the throne because of Empress Zhang's help. As far as he knows, the deposed queen should not succeed. However, after he resurrected his corpse, history has changed. Perhaps what we knew was impossible may happen now after the change. Wei Zhongxian's initiation of deposed queen may not succeed. At this time, Empress Zhang asked a eunuch in the imperial kitchen who defected to Wei Zhongxian to send a letter to him.

Dao is asking for help from himself, unlike, not to mention that the father-in-law named Tu is a person of Wei Zhongxian, maybe he may be the undercover agent arranged by Empress Zhang by Wei Zhongxian, but these are all his own guesses and it is difficult to make a conclusion. If Zhang Yan really asked for help from him, what should he do? No, she would never write a letter to ask for help from herself. This must be a trap. Could it be that Wei Zhongxian wants to kill two birds with one stone? At the same time, he felt a little sad that he judged that the letter in his arms was not from Zhang Yan's hands.

Zhu Yinglong took out the letter from his arms, tore the cover open, and opened it. The beautiful regular script on the fragrant rice paper narrated a little bit of lovesickness word by word. For a moment, Zhu Yinglong was addicted to it. Even though he knew that the words on it were not true, he still couldn't help thinking about the beautiful face that was far from him. Perhaps with his psychological age, Zhang Yan should be his best choice, but the other party was his cheap brother's wife. Taboo love is enough to make people crazy, and Zhu Yinglong is no other.

Xiong Zhaolian and Xu Yingyuan stood aside, and they didn't dare to let out their anger. They didn't dare to disturb Zhu Yinglong's thinking. Although his eyes were full of doubts, no one dared to ask where the letter in Zhu Yinglong's hand came from and who wrote it.

"Xu Yingyuan!" After a while, Zhu Yinglong woke up from his thoughts, folded the letter paper and stuffed it into the envelope again and said in a deep voice.

"Slave is here." Xu Yingyuan said "Oh" and hurriedly approached.

Zhu Yinglong picked up the letter in his hand and shook it: "Send this letter to the inn immediately and hand it over to the hands of the Eunuch Tu who came to the royal palace to announce the imperial edict tonight."

"Prince, isn't this a letter to you?" Xu Yingyuan took the letter, looked at the name of the person on the envelope, and asked in confusion.

Zhu Yinglong's face suddenly darkened and he said coldly: "Does I have to give you an explanation for what I do?"

"I dare not!" Xu Yingyuan hurriedly lowered his head, "But if Eunuch Tu asks, how should I answer?"

"Just say, I don't know much about this letter, the words in it are very literary and obscure. I can't understand it. I'd better let Eunuch Tu take this letter back." Zhu Yinglong thought for a while.

"I know, I know." Xu Yingyuan responded, turned around and ran out immediately.

"Slow down!" Zhu Yinglong suddenly thought of something and called out.

"What are the instructions of the prince?" Xu Yingyuan turned around and said quickly.

"Come here!" Zhu Yinglong called Xu Yingyuan and muttered a few words in his ear. Xu Yingyuan nodded frequently, and then ran out.
