Chapter 51 Jane is in the heart of the emperor [one more]

Zhu Hou took care of Liu Jin's embarrassed appearance, even with injuries on his body, and the little worry in his heart disappeared, but even so, he still had a cold face.

This time it was his fate, fortunately Li Huan descended from the sky and rescued him, otherwise, the dignified emperor would be killed by an assassin, once the news spread, Zhu Houzhao would really be famous in history.

And all of this was caused by Liu Jin. Although he was also at fault for sneaking out of the palace, in the final analysis, those assassins went after Liu Jin, and he was the one who suffered the disaster.

Liu Jin, who was lying there hugging Zhu Houzhao's thigh, secretly glanced at Zhu Houzhao. Seeing Zhu Houzhao's blank face, he felt relieved.

After following Zhu Houzhao for so long, he still doesn't know what kind of temperament Zhu Houzhao is. This time it is indeed because he almost caused a disaster.

But Liu Jin is not worried at all, because Zhu Houzhao is very emotional, as long as he behaves a little miserable, Zhu Houzhao will definitely soften his heart and forgive him.

Sure enough, within a short while, Zhu Houzhao kicked him hard, and Liu Jin fell to the ground.

"Okay, you old bastard is crying, I haven't said to punish you yet!"

Liu Jin said with an angry and aggrieved look: "The old slave really didn't expect that someone would want the old slave's life in such a frenzy. Slave, please punish your Majesty!"

When Zhu Houzhao heard Liu Jin mentioning the assassination, he immediately turned cold and said: "In the majestic capital, at the foot of the emperor, there is such a bold person who dares to assassinate Liu Daban today. Will he dare to enter the palace and assassinate me in the future?" Already!"

Hearing that Zhu Houzhao's attention was diverted as he wished, Liu Jin said with joy in his heart: "This old slave asks himself who he did not blame, and I don't know who is so vicious that he insisted on taking his life, so please Your Majesty as this old slave." Make the decision."

Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly, looked at Liu Jin who was kneeling in front of him in a panic, and sighed softly: "Leave this matter to your companion, I will send orders to Ma Yongcheng and Shi Wenyi, and the people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei will I will fully assist you in investigating this matter."

Although Liu Jin is now said to be trusted by Zhu Houzhao, one of them has not yet become the head of the Rites Supervisor, and neither has the authority to supervise the East Factory. Therefore, Liu Jin's current influence on Jinyiwei and the East Factory is really extremely limited. Without Zhu Houzhao Whether Dongchang and Jinyiwei will cooperate with him in investigating the origin of the assassin, it really depends on whether Ma Yongcheng, the admiral of Dongchang, and Shi Wenyi, who is in charge of Jinyiwei, will give him face.

Liu Jin kowtowed respectfully and said, "This old slave takes orders!"

He kicked Liu Jin once and said, "Okay, get up."

It was not until now that Du Yu, who was standing outside the hall, came into the hall, bowed to Zhu Houzhao and said: "The escort is not good, so I apologize to Your Majesty."

Seeing Du Yu's pale face, Zhu Houzhao said with some concern in his eyes: "What's wrong with Aiqing, get up quickly, thanks to Aiqing's support this time, I was able to escape."

Zhu Houzhao said with some curiosity: "Tell me, how did you escape? What happened to those assassins?"

Du Yu glanced at Liu Jin first. Liu Jin was currently being treated by his servants for the wound on his body, so he had no time to talk.

With a light cough, Du Yu told him that he was beaten unconscious by Li Huan after he tried his best to kill the assassin, and then told him about the capture of the assassin.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up when Du Yu mentioned Li Huan, and when Du Yu finished speaking, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help smiling and said, "So you also met Li Huan and the others."

Du Yu nodded and said with a look of rejoicing: "It was Li Huan who told me that the ministers only found out that His Majesty had escaped and returned to Beijing. Li Huan has done a great job this time!"

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said, "If Li Huan hadn't rescued me, I'm afraid I would have been killed by an assassin right now."

Liu Jin who was treating the wound on the side muttered softly: "That's just a bastard who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth!"

Hearing Liu Jin's angry words, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help being confused. Maybe Li Huan didn't save Liu Jin, but it was still a help. It is said that even if Liu Jin didn't appreciate the other party, at least he wouldn't be in such an angry posture.

Seeing Zhu Houzhao's puzzled face, Du Yu couldn't help but want to laugh when he thought of Liu Jin wanting to adopt Li Huan as his son but was frightened by Li Huan's murderous aura and fell to the ground, so he whispered to Zhu Houzhao Come.

After listening to Du Yu's narration, Zhu Houzhao's expression gradually became weird, and finally he couldn't help looking at Liu Jin with a weird look, and then laughed.

Liu Jin's injuries were almost healed at the moment, and she changed into a coat. Seeing Zhu Houzhao laughing heartily, she couldn't help but said with an extremely aggrieved look: "Your Majesty, as an old slave, don't you think he is Huan a small brocade guard with a hundred households to be the son of this old slave, how could he be wronged?"

Some high-ranking eunuchs have the habit of adopting sons, so Zhu Houzhao was not surprised that Liu Jin wanted to adopt sons.

Seeing Liu Jin's aggrieved appearance now, and thinking about Li Huan's heroic young man, Zhu Houzhao nodded solemnly and said, "Well, according to my opinion, if Li Huan is your son, then that's not enough." It’s really embarrassing people.”

Liu Jin is not a fool either. Just hearing this, I can tell that Zhu Houzhao must have attached great importance to Li Huan, but when he thought of Li Huan being embarrassed in front of so many people, he was still very aggrieved, and tentatively said: "Your Majesty, Li Huan I don’t know how Your Majesty plans to reward him for saving him?”

Zhu Houzhao pondered for a while after hearing the words: "I haven't thought about it yet, but he saved me, so naturally I can't treat him lightly. High officials and rich salary, riches and honors, it's up to him to choose."

Liu Jin frowned and said, "This old slave thinks something is wrong."

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help looking at Liu Jin with a bit of unhappiness and said, "What? Could it be because Li Huan rejected you and embarrassed you, so you..."

When Liu Jin heard Zhu Houzhao's tone, she screamed in her heart that it was terrible. She was too impatient. Even if she wanted to plot and smear Li Huan, she shouldn't have chosen this as the head.

Thinking suddenly, Liu Jin knelt down with a thud, and said with an extremely aggrieved look: "Your Majesty, the old slave is not the kind of narrow-minded person. Li Huan saved the majesty, which is equivalent to saving the old slave. The old slave is right. It's too late for him to be grateful, how can he be mixed with selfishness and grudge against him, the old slave thinks that His Majesty rewards him heavily at this time, it is really inappropriate."

Staring at Liu Jin, it seemed that he wanted to see through Liu Jin. After a while, Zhu Houzhao said calmly, "Then tell me, what's wrong?"

Liu Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Li Huan might really be in the emperor's heart, and he hadn't said anything bad about Li Huan before, so he made Zhu Houzhao unhappy, if this...

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Liu Jin said respectfully: "Your Majesty, from the perspective of an old slave, Li Huan should be about the same age as Your Majesty, but he is different from His Majesty who was born in heaven, and has a good education. To promote him to a high position, with his youthful heart, I'm afraid it will be harmful rather than beneficial to him."

Hearing what Liu Jin said, Zhu Houzhao's originally cold face eased a little, nodded and said, "What you said makes sense."
