Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 30 Poison Hairpin, Zhen E

Auntie Zhu returned to the Hall of Martial Ying, saluted Chongzhen, and said, "Father, don't worry, Auntie Zhu has already been taken care of by Mr. Hao. My daughter is going to make some preparations now, just wait for my father to find a warrior who dares to assassinate Li Zicheng. The daughter then took people out of the city."

Chongzhen looked at Auntie Zhu's pretty immature face, took a breath, and wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth but didn't say anything, and finally just nodded with a forced smile.

Aimee Zhu returned to her bedroom and immediately asked several maids who were waiting on her to change her clothes, recomb her hair and make up.

Since she was going to meet Li Zicheng as Princess Daming, of course she had to dress up.

The maids around Aimi Zhu were all timid, only Fei Zhen'e who was sent to teach her how to behave outside the palace a few months ago was more daring, and often took the initiative to talk to her.

No, after helping Aimee Zhu to dress up, Fei Zhen'e asked, "Now that you can't leave the palace, where is Your Highness planning to go with such a grand dress?"

Aunt Zhu didn't think much and said, "Go see Li Zicheng."

Fei Zhen'e was slightly taken aback when she heard this, and then said in surprise: "Seeing the intruder? Why?"

Aimee Zhu thought about going out of the city to the camp to assassinate Li Zicheng, but she was actually very nervous, subconsciously wanting to talk to someone more.

She heard the words and said, "As an envoy, negotiate with Li Zicheng."

Fei Zhen'e is a few years older than Auntie Zhu, and she came to the palace after moving from Henan to the capital a few years ago, and she has much more experience than ordinary court ladies.

She hesitated for a while and couldn't help but said: "How can His Highness do this mission? No one among the ministers in the city is willing to go?"

Aimee Zhu heard that Fei Zhen'e was worried about her, so she comforted her: "You don't have to worry, I won't be in danger if I go here."

Fei Zhen'e stopped talking.

After finishing the bun for Auntie Zhu, she suddenly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, let the servant girl go with you? There is also a help."

"No." Auntie Zhu refused without hesitation.

If she was not worried that she would not be able to seize the opportunity to kill Li Zicheng, Zhu Yu would not even take the so-called warrior with her, because she knew that everyone else would die except her afterwards.

So how can you bring an extra maid?

"Your Highness..."

Fei Zhen'e wanted to plead again, but was interrupted directly by Aimee Zhu.

"I have a great responsibility to go to the camp this time, and I won't bring other people with me. You don't need to say any more."

Aimee Zhu had just finished speaking when Wang Chengen's voice came from outside.

"Is Her Royal Highness here?"

"Get dressed inside." The palace maid who was guarding outside replied.

"Your Highness, the old slave has something to ask for an interview." Wang Chengen shouted directly outside.

Aimee Zhu guessed that it was mostly about the stabbing, she didn't feel any inconvenience here, so she said, "Come in and talk about it."

After Wang Chengen came in, he looked at Aimee Zhu for a while, sighed lightly, and said, "Your Highness, I am afraid that you will need to bring this copper hairpin with you this time."

After finishing speaking, Wang Chengen took out a copper hairpin nearly half a foot long from his sleeve.

I saw that the copper hairpin was not only plain and unpretentious, but also that the tail of the hairpin looked quite sharp, with a faint blue color.

Auntie Zhu didn't react for a while, she asked in confusion, "What is the meaning of this action, my lord?"

Wang Chengen sighed: "The warriors who dared to assassinate the intruders have been found, but they may not be able to bring their weapons into Li Zicheng's big tent, so when they get to the tent, they have to rely on the bronze hairpin on His Highness's head.

Although this hairpin is not very sharp, it is impregnated with poison. As long as Li Zicheng's skin is pierced, he will die. "

After hearing Wang Chengen's words, Auntie Zhu focused on the copper hairpin without any other special performance.

But the ladies next to her were terrified.

None of them expected that Auntie Zhu would actually want to assassinate Li Zicheng!
In this way, even if the assassination is successful, how can Auntie Zhu survive?
Only Fei Zhen'e was surprised, and his eyes showed strange colors.

Aimee Zhu took the copper hairpin and looked at it while asking: "Is one hairpin enough? If not, I can wear a few more. I guess the intruders won't be wary of a woman like me."

Wang Cheng'en said: "There are only three warriors who dare to stab, and two of them will take away other people's weapons and assist them from the side. Only the highest martial artist needs to use this poisonous hairpin to assassinate Li Zicheng.

Therefore, His Royal Highness only needs to bring this poisonous hairpin. If you bring too much, it will be bad if the intruder becomes suspicious. "

"I understand."

Aunt Zhu nodded, and then faced the mirror and inserted the copper poison hairpin into the thick black hair.

However, Wang Chengen looked at the maids next to him, and said: "There is still one shortcoming in this assassination plan - if the princess only brings three men and no maids, it is not in line with common sense after all, and may cause intrusion. The thief doubted.

Therefore, the old slave had to choose another court lady who was bold and careful to accompany Her Highness the Princess. "

Auntie Zhu couldn't help frowning when she heard this, she turned her head to look at Wang Cheng'en and said, "No need?"

Auntie Zhu didn't want more people to follow her to die.

Wang Chengen sighed: "Your Royal Highness, I know that you are kind-hearted, and I don't want more people to accompany you into the dangerous place. But whether you can succeed in this assassination is related to the safety of the Ming Dynasty, and the slightest omission will not be tolerated." .”

As he said that, Wang Chengen looked at Fei Zhen'e and the others again, and asked with a smile: "Are any of you willing to accompany the palace lord? As long as you agree, you can immediately get a reward of ten thousand taels of silver, even if you No need, you can give it to your family.”

Under Wang Chengen's gaze, several of the court ladies couldn't help trembling, and some even couldn't help but back away.

But there was also one person who responded immediately: "My servant is willing!"

"Sister Zhen'e?" Seeing this, Auntie Zhu couldn't help looking at Fei Zhen'e in surprise, "Don't you understand? Those who follow me this time, no matter whether they succeed or not, will fall into a dead end!"

"Your maidservant knows!" Fei Zhen'e knelt down towards Aimee Zhu, "To tell you the truth, Your Majesty, this maidservant was originally a woman from a wealthy family in Henan Province. When thieves broke into Henan, dozens of maidservant's family members were murdered, and only maidservant was alone. live!
Later, the servant girl was exiled to the capital, and the queen sent someone to give porridge for relief, and she was accepted as a palace maid, so she survived.

Therefore, whether it is to avenge the whole family, or to repay the Queen's life, the servant girl hopes to go to the camp with His Highness.

Even if he couldn't kill that thief Li Zicheng with his own hands, he could still protect His Highness with his life.I implore Your Highness to complete it! "

Auntie Zhu couldn't tell the truth from what Fei Zhen'e said, but Wang Chengen was sure it was true.

As the mother of a country, Empress Zhou sent people to give porridge for relief when there were refugees outside the capital, and even selected suitable people into the palace to save her life.

This is to show the kindness of the royal family.

Fei Zhen'e was obviously the one who survived because of the kindness of the royal family.

In addition, Fei Zhen'e has been serving Queen Zhou for several years, which is also credible enough.

Thinking of this, Wang Chengen nodded and said, "In that case, it's up to you."

"Thank you, Eunuch Wang!" Fei Zhen'e thanked Wang Chengen.

Auntie Zhu really wanted to refuse, but after thinking about the importance of this stab, and seeing Fei Zhen'e's firm expression, she didn't say anything after all.

···
After a moment.

Aimee Zhu in full attire came to Wuying Palace again, followed by Fei Zhen'e who was dressed as a court lady and also wearing a copper hairpin.

"I pay my respects to Emperor Father." Zhu Wei saluted Chong Zhen and asked, "My daughter is ready, where are the three warriors?"

Chong Zhen looked at Auntie Zhu for a second or two and said, "It's in the side hall."

Auntie Zhu said, "My daughter wants to have a chat with them."

After hearing this, Chongzhen subconsciously said: "They are all Jianghu people recruited by Dongchang. You are...forget it, you go talk."

Auntie Zhu didn't say much, and brought Fei Zhen'e to the side hall, and saw three men drinking and eating meat without saying a word.

They were all gobbling up, obviously hungry, and maybe they haven't eaten such good wine and meat for a long time.

After all, the capital has been short of food for quite some time.
