Chapter 121 Trap
"Father, don't talk nonsense." Zhu Xun cast a glance at Su Wanru, blushed, and stammered, "She...she...I..."

Marquis Changxing suddenly patted the table and said: "I can't even speak clearly, see if it's useful." Then, he turned his head and looked at Su Wanru, "Little girl, where are your parents? I'll go there tomorrow Visit, don’t be shy, it’s normal for a man to marry a woman. In the future, if you enter the door of my old Zhu’s house, you will be a member of my old Zhu’s house. If he wants to bully you, I will break his leg.”

Su Wanru was dumbfounded, it seemed that this wasn't the topic they were talking about, was it?
Lord Hou, how could you distort the point like this.

She coughed, turned to look at Zhu Xun, and glared at him. Zhu Xun waved his hands and said, "Father, don't talk nonsense, she... Ah Jin is my eighth brother's wife." She glanced at Su Wanru again, "I have to Call sister-in-law."

"Shen Zhan is thinking about it?" Changxing Hou's face darkened, and he began to look at Su Wanrulai seriously, squinting his eyes, and said: "The little girl Shen Zhan is talking about is you?"

Finally regained her composure, Su Wanru twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "Master Hou, let's continue talking about what happened just now."

"This brat, even if he found a wife, he didn't know how to bring it to me." Changxing Hou looked at Su Wanru and nodded, "The little girl is smart and has a good temper, she is worthy of Shen Zhan!"

The corners of Su Wanru's mouth trembled again, and she reminded again: "Master Hou, what are your plans regarding Liu Changshu?"

"Yes, yes! Liu Changshu's grandson has bad intentions, and he must not be let go," Zhu Xun said.

Marquis Changxing glanced at his son with disgust, his eyes fell on Su Wanru's face, and said, "What's your name, where are you from, and how old are you?"

Why did I digress again.Su Wanru coughed, and said: "Sixteen, from Pingjiang Mansion, surnamed Su, single name Jin."

"That's right." Marquis Changxing said again: "You told Zhengyan that Liu Changshu might have stabbed us in the back, right?"

Su Wanru nodded, and said: "Master Hou, you have to investigate this matter as soon as possible, and then respond quickly, whether it is the Holy Majesty or the Prince, you have to make a statement." Then said: "I don't know what Liu Changshu is The purpose, but now everyone in the court must think that if you are going to be in-laws, then you must have the same position. Liu Changshu's impeachment of the emperor's eldest grandson is equivalent to your impeachment!"

"For the matter of the imperial mausoleum, the Holy Majesty did not punish the eldest grandson of the emperor, but Liu Changshu jumped out to impeach him. Even if the Majesty didn't say anything, he must feel uncomfortable." Su Wanru said: "There is also the crown prince, the eldest son just had a quarrel with his brother-in-law One pass, but anyone who pays more attention will definitely think wrongly."

"What you said makes sense." Marquis Changxing poured tea for himself, took a few sips, stopped and said thoughtfully, "This Liu is not a thing, if I let me know that he is playing tricks behind his back, I will Chop him up and feed it to the dogs immediately."

"Father, I'll go, let me go." Zhu Xun said, "I'm going to chop him up and feed him to the dogs. Also, luckily the marriage didn't work out, otherwise I would have been killed terribly."

Snapped!
Marquis Changxing threw out the teacup in his hand, Zhu Xun deftly gave way, and grabbed it with his backhand. The tea in the teacup did not leak at all. He came over with a shy smile on his face, and said, "Father, continue to drink tea."

"Get lost, something that's an eyesore." Marquis Changxing was filled with disgust, turned to look at Su Wanru, and said, "Little girl, tell me, what should I do."

ask her?It's very simple, isn't it?

Besides, did Marquis Changxing not support his staff?Su Wanru looked at Zhu Xun with a questioning expression.

"My father said that it would be too expensive to hire staff, and it would be more cost-effective to raise a few pigs in the backyard." Zhu Xun chuckled, "Tell me what you think, neither my father nor I can think of it."

Su Wanru looked at Marquis Changxing.

Marquis Changxing nodded approvingly, "I thought someone was harming me, so I asked Shen Zhan. Now that he's gone, you are his wife, so just help me think about it."

Su Wanru also laughed, sat down on the chair, and said: "Even if Liu Changshu's position cannot be found immediately, you should go to the prince immediately, let the prince go, and explain to the prince what the fight was like at that time." .”

Zhu Xun nodded, "I apologize to him, and I will take a detour when I see someone surnamed Hu in the future."

Su Wanru shook her head, and said: "Since you don't want to see someone surnamed Hu, and you think you are right, then you don't need to apologize when you go to the prince, talk about the matter, explain the matter clearly, and cry and say that you were also beaten. Let the prince think about the next thing."

Zhu Xun felt that it made sense, but it seemed a bit guilty to apologize.

"Then how to explain the matter of the Liu family, who they want to impeach, I don't know at all." Changxing Hou said with disgust.

Su Wanru said: "You don't need to explain the affairs of the Liu family to the Holy Majesty and the Crown Prince, just find a reason to quit the engagement. What kind of horoscope does not match, what kind of son should not marry early, and even find a nun to visit Liu's mansion and say that their daughter is a horoscope Kefu is fine, but once the marriage is withdrawn, everyone will understand."

Marquis Changxing and Zhu Xun didn't speak. After a while, Marquis Changxing slammed the teacup towards Zhu Xun. Zhu Xun dodged and caught it with his backhand, saying, "Father, why are you doing it again?"

"Look at your shameful thing." Chang Xinghou said: "You are not even as good as a baby girl, no wonder you can't marry a wife."

Zhu Xun stood up suddenly, and when he saw Chang Xinghou's eyes, he was immediately discouraged and sat back on the threshold.

Su Wanru looked at the father and son dumbfounded.

"You have to go home for dinner." Changxing Hou Aiwu and Wu, he admired Shen Zhan and felt sorry for Shen Zhan, so he naturally became more kind to Su Wanru, "Let your aunt see you too."

Su Wanru had no reason to refuse, she nodded with a smile, and said: "Okay, I will definitely come to disturb you someday."

He is a gentleman, he should be able to read and write, Changxing Hou was very satisfied, he got up with his hands behind his back and was about to leave, after walking two steps, he looked back at Su Wanru, and said, "Okay, I think it is better to hit the sun than choose the day, just tonight, If you go home at night, I will ask your aunt to feed you the whole table, you are too skinny to have a baby."

"Ah!" Su Wanru was stunned, and Zhu Xun nodded in agreement, "Go, go. My sister must be very curious about you too."

Zhu Xun also has a younger sister, a first-milk compatriot, who is considered to be a child of the old man, who is about fourteen or fifteen years old this year.

"Yes!" Su Wanru answered with a smile, sent Marquis Changxing out, Zhu Xun elbowed her, and said in a low voice, "It seems that my father is quite satisfied with you, you are very good, you have a way."

Su Wanru rolled his eyes at him, and said in a low voice, "You treat everyone else as stupid as you."

"Okay, as long as you are smart, you are the smartest in the world." Zhu Xun snorted, "I really don't know how my starling fell in love with you."

Su Wanru stared, grabbed the flesh on his arm, gritted her teeth and said, "Zhu Zhengyan, if you have the guts to say it again."

"I... I was wrong, I won't say it anymore, you are the most beautiful, gentle and virtuous person in the world, and you are the only one who is worthy of my starling." Zhu Xun grinned in pain, Changxing Hou in front stopped and turned his head when he heard the movement Looking at them, Su Wanru let go of her hands and smiled sweetly at Changxing Hou.

"What's the fuss?" Chang Xinghou glared at his son immediately, "What are you and A Jin making a fuss about, she's still a girl when she's young, you don't want to lose face."

Zhu Xun pointed at himself, then at Su Wanru, with aggrieved expression on his face, and said, "Father, she is the one who bullied me."

"Why did she bully you? I think it's you bullying her. It's useless. I'll take care of you when I go back." Changxinghou said, his tone changed, "Ajin remember to go home for dinner."

Su Wanru nodded yes, and said, "Understood, I must go tonight."

Marquis Changxing nodded, and went out with Zhu Xun one after the other. He said as he walked: "You go to the Prince's Mansion to make trouble now, and the Prince who caused the trouble will apologize to you. Don't be afraid, with your father here, only The reason is in our hands, no one needs to be afraid.”

"Yes, Father!" Zhu Xun chuckled, said goodbye to Marquis Changxing when he left the house, and went directly to the Prince's Mansion.

Su Wanru stood at the door and watched the father and son go away, her eyes were full of warmth, never thought that Marquis Changxing had such a temper... that's right, you can tell just by looking at Zhu Xun, it seems that in their eyes, all the scheming powers in this world The contention has nothing to do with them.

Zhu Xun led Chang Sui to the Prince's Mansion on horseback. After calming down and thinking about it, he felt that what Su Wanru said was reasonable. Liu Changshu probably had a premeditated plan to drag Changxing Hou's mansion into muddy water.

It's just strange that if Liu Changshu jumped out so early, wouldn't he be afraid of being remembered by the Holy Majesty and the Prince?

Who is behind him?
What is the purpose, is it aimed at the crown prince or at the Marquis of Changxing?
If you want to know, I'm afraid you have to wait until you find out who ordered Liu Changshu.

He turned around a few times in his heart, and went straight to the Prince's Mansion. Zhao Biao was stunned when he heard the news of his arrival, and then asked someone to invite him in. Zhu Xun didn't even pay attention when he entered the door, and shouted: "Your Highness Look, I'm here to ask you to judge."

Zhao Biao saw a bruise on his cheek, and immediately laughed, "Did you fight?"

"It was Hu Sichang who beat me. Look at my face. I haven't married a wife yet." Zhao Biao sat down on a chair, looking aggrieved, "He went to eat, and I went to eat too. He saw me The nose is not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes, you say I robbed his wife, or kidnapped his daughter!"

"I didn't like him a long time ago. Relying on your power, you are domineering all day long. I won't show him any face today, sir." Zhu Xun looked at Zhao Biao and said, "I made the first move, and he didn't let it go. Good. Unexpectedly, after the beating, that guy actually came to my father to complain, and I was almost hacked to death by my father just now."

The expression on Zhao Biao's face gradually softened, "You still have the face to complain to me, he can't get off the ground after being beaten by you." He said again: "He can be regarded as half my brother-in-law, you Anyway, to see my face, just say a few words, but I still do it."

"I can't get enough of it." Zhu Xun looked like a rogue, "You have to criticize this, but I haven't married a wife yet."

Zhao Biao took advantage of the situation and asked, "Aren't you talking about marriage?"

Sure enough, Ah Jin had expected it, and the prince really doubted him in his heart. His heart skipped a beat, and he waved his hands and replied: "The Liu family is no good, I don't like it. They boast of a scholarly family because they are scholars. If they marry back If you face me all day, wouldn't it be worse than death for me?"

"It's fine if you don't marry? Marquis Changxing will agree. I heard that Mr. Liu and Lord Hou are from the same hometown." Zhao Biao said.

Zhu Xun waved his hands, and said, "My father just wanted to get in touch with each other, to get to know each other better. How did it end up, I haven't written a word yet."

"It turned out to be like this. I thought I could drink your wedding wine this year." Zhao Biao stood up and patted Zhu Xun on the shoulder, "Okay, let's all make room for the fight, and I will go to the Hu family to persuade you , don’t take advantage of it here to be good, he hurts more than you.”

"Your Highness, you are not helping relatives." Zhu Xun snorted twice, "But you have said so, I can't say anything, anyway, please tell the surname Hu, and I will take a detour in the future , or I'll beat him."

Zhao Biao smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "I can't keep up with your young thoughts, so go ahead and make trouble as you please, just don't make me come here."

"Okay, then let's not talk about it." Zhu Xun said: "Has the eldest grandson of the emperor gone to Fengyang? He left too quickly, and I didn't let him practice it."

Zhao Biao nodded and said: "It happened suddenly, we didn't expect it. Wait a minute, his fifth uncle is going to get married at the end of May, and he is bound to come back again."

"That's fine, I'll get together with him again at that time." Zhu Xun felt that he had finished speaking, and he might slip up if he continued, so he said: "Then you are busy, I will go back and explain to my father , If you don’t make it clear, I’ll give you another beating.”

"If it really doesn't make sense, you come to me, I'll go talk to Marquis Changxing." Zhao Biao said: "You are such an adult, it's not good to keep doing it all the time, it will affect your marriage."

Zhu Xun nodded, "It's better Your Highness, my father is just too unreasonable." After saying that, he left with a dejected look.

As soon as he left, several staff members behind the screen came out. Zhao Biao looked at them and said, "It seems that I misunderstood them. That's right, Zhu Zhengyan has never had any scheming, and he has no reason to turn against me." .”

Several staff members should be, at this time a guard came in from outside, saluted, cupped his hands and replied: "His Royal Highness, there is nothing to be found with Mr. Liu, and everything is hidden. If you want to investigate carefully, I'm afraid It's a little difficult."

Zhao Biao had expected that Liu Changshu had no reason to do this. The person behind him must be one of his younger brothers, but he was still not sure.

Only wait and see.

At this moment, Zhao Dong was also listening to the guards. After listening, he frowned slightly, looked at his aide Ma Wenpo, and said, "The response of the Marquis of Changxing is so fast, which is beyond my expectation."

He thought that the response from the Marquis of Changxing would be at least tomorrow, and it would never be like this. It was just that Zhu Xun went to the Prince's Mansion to make a fuss and left.

According to the nature of the Marquis of Changxing, shouldn't it be handed over to explain it seriously.

Now this situation is somewhat beyond his expectation.

"It's a little strange." Marvin Po said: "This is not in line with Changxing Hou's usual style, and it shows some tricks."

Marquis Changxing has no means, and everyone in the court knows it.

"Send someone to see if he has invited his staff." After Zhao Dong finished speaking, he said, "Also, let's continue with tomorrow's work and strike while the iron is hot."

Ma Wenpo should be, go down and arrange things.

Zhu Xun happily went to Baoying Embroidery Workshop. Su Wanru had just changed clothes and was about to go to his house. When she saw him coming back, she asked, "How is it? What did the prince say?"

"I asked about the marriage." Zhu Xun explained the matter to Su Wanru in detail, "...you expected it very well, he really felt that my father and Liu Changshu discussed the impeachment of the eldest grandson of the emperor."

"Since the prince asked, it means that he has dispelled his doubts." Su Wanru breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out with Zhu Xun, "Tell me, who is the prince behind this?"

Zhu Xun was stunned for a moment, "Do you think it is a certain prince?" Then he sighed: "No way, the prince's seat is very secure, no matter who wants to pry it, it will not be easy."

"It depends on man's will. There is no corner of the wall that cannot be pried open." Su Wanru said, "Since this person has made up his mind, he must have a second move. In the future, you have to be more cautious. You are in the open and the enemy is in the dark. Don't be on guard." Not at all."

"What's the point of him touching me? Why don't you just touch the prince." Zhu Xun looked puzzled.

Su Wanru explained: "Does Lord Hou have soldiers in his hand?"

"Yes!" Zhu Xun replied: "Myna's soldiers stayed in Gansu, and my father's soldiers were divided between Shandong and Liaodong. Myna handed over the military power, but my father still has it in his hands, saying that it will be handed over next year. "

"This person is here for this." Su Wanru said: "It is very possible that Master Hou was the first brick he pried. So I was wondering if he couldn't pry it, would he not want Master Hou to pry it?" work for someone else."

"This grandson is too cloudy." Zhu Xun spat and said, "Wait, I must find him out."

Su Wanru nodded, and the two went to Changxing Hou Mansion while talking.

The Marquis of Changxing's mansion is very large, and the decorations and pavilions inside are rare and exquisite. It can be seen that Zhao Zhiang attaches great importance to Marquis Changxing. She followed Zhu Xun all the way in, and when she reached the entrance of the main courtyard, she saw the curtain of the banquet room Pushed away by a woman, a woman in her forties, wearing a ginger beige, came out.

The woman looked at her with a very friendly smile, she waved her hand from afar and said, "Come quickly, let me have a look."

"A Jin pays respects to Madam." Su Wanru went up to Yingying to pay her respects, Yang helped her up, looked her up and down, nodded her head and said, "Shen Zhan's eyesight is indeed right, he is really handsome."

Su Wanru's cheeks were slightly red, so Yang took her into the banquet room, and said as she walked, "He has been keeping us a secret all along. If it wasn't for today's coincidence, neither Lord Hou nor I would know about it."

"When he comes back, you can train him!" Su Wanru replied with a light smile, and Yang Shi said, "I must say something to him about this."

Su Wanru sat down with her, and Zhu Xun sat across from her with a smile. Yang Shi rolled his eyes at him and said, "What are you silly, go find your father, he is waiting for you to talk."

"Oh, I'll go then." Zhu Xun got up, winked at Su Wanru, and walked out the door wagging his head.

Yang didn't look at her son, but stared at Su Wanru, and said, "Shen Zhan, don't look at him as capable, but his temper is just like a child's. He will protect the things he likes very much, for fear of being caught by others." Got it, grabbed it."

Su Wanru smiled lightly.

"Have you seen his mother?" Yang looked at her.

Su Wanru seldom heard Shen Zhan talk about her mother, and the few times she felt it was not good, she thought that even if his mother disagreed with her and Shen Zhan, they could not stop them.

"No. I heard it's in Liaodong." Su Wanru replied, "Madam, have you seen it?"

Yang Shi nodded, and said: "I met her once, and Shen Zhan has a stubborn temper like hers. However, her temper is even more weird. It's not that I said bad things about her, but it is true." She paused for a while. After a pause, he said again: "You know what happened to Shen Zhan when he was a child, right? A child of three or four years old, she left as soon as she said she wanted to, and left him at home alone. This is not something an ordinary mother can do."

Su Wanru remembered that Shen Zhan had been hungry for a long time and even ate rat meat.

She simply wondered how he survived.

"She's a doctor." Yang said, "I got into herbal medicine with all my heart, and I was worried when I saw it. The time we met, she just said a few words, and she left without even Shen Zhan's face." See."

Mother and son are not like mother and son at all, but like enemies.

This is the first time Su Wanru heard about it, "Maybe it's because of the different ways of expressing it. Otherwise, she wouldn't have worked so hard to give birth to Shen Zhan."

As much as Yang loves Shen Zhan, she despises his mother, "Okay, let's not talk about her, anyway, you won't live with her in the future, so it doesn't matter what her temperament is."

Su Wanru laughed along, thinking that Changxinghou's family was very interesting.

"Is Ah Jin here? Let someone serve dinner." While speaking, Marquis Changxing came in from the outside, followed by Zhu Xun and Zhu Yin.

Zhu Yin is tall, thin, and somewhat similar to Zhu Xun, but she looks deserted and doesn't like to talk very much. When she saw her, she just nodded and said hello, and sat on the side without knowing what she was thinking.

When the food was served, Mrs. Yang tried her best to pick up the food for her. After a while, her bowl was piled up like a hill. Zhu Xun smirked and said, "Eat more, my cook is very good at cooking."

Su Wanru smiled and said yes.

"Just say it if you don't like it." Zhu Yin put down the chopsticks and looked at Su Wanru, "If you say you love to eat and eat it desperately, no one will know even if you're stuffed to death."

As soon as she opened her mouth, the scene immediately turned cold. Su Wanru felt that she had never been so embarrassed before. Just as she was about to explain, Marquis Changxing coughed and said, "I want you to talk a lot of nonsense. If you don't want to eat, you can go back to the room and stay." .”

Zhu Yin uttered an oh, and said in a calm tone: "Father, mother, eldest brother, Su Jin, I'm done eating." After saying that, she pushed the chair away and left without looking back.

Su Wanru was dumbfounded, but inexplicably found it cute.

"Don't care about her." Yang said: "She is like this. The doctor said that I was old when I gave birth to her, so the child is not smart."

Zhu Xun nodded aside, "I'm the only one in my family who is smart."

"Fart!" Chang Xinghou said, "You are the stupidest!"

Zhu Xun curled his lips and remained silent.

Su Wanru worked very hard not to lose her composure, she ate slowly with a smile, and at the end of the meal she found that everyone was waiting for her with soup, she said embarrassedly: "I... can't eat anymore."

"It's okay." Yang said, "It's just like at home. If you can't eat, you put your chopsticks away. Look at Zhu Yin, she does this every time."

Su Wanru nodded yes, and put the chopsticks behind Zhu Xun.

The girl came in to collect the bowls and chopsticks, and served tea again, Su Wanru sat down, Changxing Hou looked at Su Wanru, and said: "I will find Liu Changshu tomorrow, the marriage is over."

"It's not good to go directly to it. You were the one who looked for it back then." Yang looked at Chang Xinghou and said, "Let Mrs. Wang go for a while, just explain what you mean, and simply didn't change Geng Tie."

Marquis Changxing looked at Su Wanru, "What do you think?"

"Ma'am is right." Su Wanru nodded, "Since Geng Tie has not been changed, then just ask a matchmaker to spread the word."

Marquis Changxing nodded, then frowned and said to Yang, "Go and call Zhu Yin, and ask her to accompany Ah Jin to the yard to get acquainted." Then he looked at Su Wanru, "I planted vegetables in the back yard, Do you want to go and see it?"

Su Wanru smiled and nodded, "Master Hou knows how to farm."

"My family's ancestors have been farming for ten generations." Changxing Hou said: "In my generation, I have lost my ancestor's business, but even if I don't farm, I can always grow vegetables."

Zhu Xun nodded and echoed, "My father planted watermelons last year, and they were so sweet."

Su Wanru smiled and said yes.

"I'll go with Ah Jin to have a look. What is Zhu Yin? She can't say a word for a day, and she will be embarrassed when she turns around." Zhu Xun said to pull Su Wanru, "Go, let's eat."

Su Wanru was dragged up by him, and Marquis Changxing patted his son's hand when he came up, "There are no rules for those who touch hands and feet."

"Got it, got it." Zhu Xun cupped his hands towards Su Wanru, "Aunt Su, please!"

Su Wanru held back her smile, bowed to Marquis Changxing and Yang Shi, and went out with Zhu Xun. As soon as she went out, she glared at Zhu Xun and said, "You can't talk well, I'm embarrassed by your behavior."

"What embarrassment, my father is not embarrassed." Zhu Xun said in a low voice: "You will come here often in the future, and your attitude towards my father will be much better."

Su Wanru laughed.

In the banquet room, Mrs. Yang hesitated for a moment, and said: "Look, do you want to write a letter to the doctor? I think this girl is really nice, she has a good temper and is smart. If it wasn't for Shen Zhan's decision, I really can't wait to tell Zhengyan Yes." He added: "However, I see that the household doctor may not agree."

"Your son is not good enough for her little girl." Marquis Changxing rolled his eyes at Yang Shi, and said again: "There is no need to write a letter, Shen Zhan will handle this matter by himself."

Yang frowned, and said: "I think it's not handled well. If the Hu doctor's temperament is easy to talk, their mother and son won't suffer so much, and their relationship will not be so stiff." After speaking, he sighed.

Su Wanru and Zhu Xun had seen the vegetable garden together, so she resigned from Changxinghou's family and Zhu Xun accompanied her to Baoying Embroidery Workshop. Looking at it from inside, he raised his eyebrows and said, "...is it called Su Jin?"

"Yes." Marvin Po said: "This woman is quite strange. She has done a lot of things in just a few months in the capital. Not only that, but she also made friends with many dignitaries and had contacts with several wives."

"You also know about Prince Ning..." Ma Wenpo looked at Zhao Dong, "Your Highness, do you want to investigate this woman?"

Zhao Dong nodded, and suddenly remembered something, "Is that little girl from the Xu family also learning from her?"

"Yes!" Ma Wenpo said, "It's been several days, and it's been delivered every morning. In the past two days, Grandma Xu's family has personally delivered it, staying in the embroidery workshop for a long time before leaving."

And Si Sanbao!Si Sanbao also had contacts with this embroiderer, and it seemed that they had a close relationship.

Did he overlook something?
"Check carefully." Changxing Hou and his son had contact with this woman today, could it be that she gave them an idea?
The car returned to the Seventh Prince's Mansion. On the second day, Ma Wenpo reported what he had found to Zhao Dong, "... not only communicated with King Ning, but also with the Zhennan Hou Mansion. Si Sanbao, Changxing Marquis Mansion, personally Mrs. Enbo is also very close to her, and Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Cai, and Mrs. Zhang all walk around."

"Your Highness, this is not something that can be done casually and by luck." Ma Wenpo emphasized: "She only arrived in the capital in October last year. She entered Baoying Embroidery Workshop as soon as she came, and annexed it almost with a strong posture. All embroidery workshops, including Jinxiu workshop."

"This time she has traveled with envoys from various countries, and my subordinates estimate that she probably wants to do shipping." Ma Wenpo said, feeling unbelievable, "A 16-year-old girl!"

Zhao Dong nodded and said, "Send someone to watch her."

Ma Wenpo nodded.

Because she is a woman, even if she looks good, Zhao Dong just paid attention to it with the eyes of a man looking at a woman, and didn't think too much about it, but now that he summed up the investigation, he found it incredible.

However, why did she do these things, did she really just want to do business, grow stronger, or did she have another purpose?
Zhao Dong couldn't figure it out, so Ma Wenpo said: "Your Highness, do you think there will be someone behind her to give advice?"

Shen Zhan or Zhao Yan?
No matter who it is between the two of them, this matter is not simple.

It was already noon when Zhu Xun woke up, and Ma Yuxiao dragged him out when he woke up, "...the weather is fine today, we are going for a horse race."

"Okay!" Zhu Xun hurriedly changed his clothes, pulled them out, and asked, "Who else is with me?"

Ma Yuxiao frowned, and said, "There are a lot of people, you'll know when you go."

Su Wanru met Suiyi in the backyard, "You mean, when Zhu Zhengyan and I left the Marquis of Changxing's mansion last night, Zhao Dong was on the opposite side?"

"Yes!" Sui nodded, the injury on his buttocks was still not healed, and he didn't move quickly, "Then he asked someone to check what you did during this period. So be careful, girl, and the master said when he left , Beijing is beginning to become unstable, the celebration and joy of getting up early is over, and now everyone is betting on future interests."

Su Wanru didn't say anything, she didn't know about the other princes, but Zhao Dong was indeed ambitious.

It's just that he pried Chang Xinghou for two things in a row, but he couldn't pry him, so what will he do next?

It shouldn't be so easy to give up, right?
Grab the handle of Marquis Changxing?But a person with the temperament of Chang Xing Hou should have no reason, his affairs are all on the bright side...

Su Wanru thought about it, looked up at Suiyi, and said, "Do you know what Zhu Shizi is doing today?"

"I went out for a horse race with Master Ma from Dingcheng Hou's Mansion, and I should go to the suburbs of Beijing, to the Temple of Heaven." Sui Yi replied.

The Temple of Heaven in the suburbs of Beijing...

Su Wanru felt that she seemed to have forgotten something, but she didn't know anything... The court's party members were unknown, and they were all sinking in the water. It would be great if there was a major event to disturb it. After the ceremony, close the door and go out.

As soon as the door was closed, Su Wanru called out, "Sui Yi."

"Miss." Su Wanru opened the door and looked at her, Su Wanru said: "Go and tell Marquis Changxing, please ask him to send a stable person to follow Prince Zhu, and don't let him mess around."

Go as it should.

Near the Temple of Heaven on the outskirts of Beijing, when the Temple of Heaven was being built last year, the people within a dozen miles were driven away, and the left and right were very open except for the official roads.Therefore, many noble children in Beijing like to come here to run horses when they have nothing to do, and they can run happily even if they are close.

The Temple of Heaven is backed by the West Mountain, and a few miles further ahead, a river was manually dug together with the Tonghui River. After Zhu Xun ran around twice, he saw Cai Chengzhi, Zhao Dong, Huaiyin Hou Shizi, and Liu San, who almost became his brother-in-law. son.

A few people led a team of guards, and they ran dusty and bustling. Zhao Dong yelled and looked at Zhu Xun, and said, "Zhengyan, do you want to compete?"

"Your Highness." Zhu Xun replied, "How do you compare, what's the prize?"

Zhao Dong said: "If you lose, please have dinner at the Ruyun Pavilion at noon."

"Okay!" Zhu Xun responded readily, sweeping his gaze, pointing to the mountain behind, "Run two times back and forth, whoever comes back first wins."

Zhao Dong nodded, and the five people stood in a row. Someone called out, and the five horses rushed out like arrows flying off the string. He ran the fastest, and he left everyone behind in a short time.

As soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, he turned his horse around and saw a figure flashing past inside the mountain. He was stunned when the horse turned around. He ran back and forth at a faster speed, and saw a cold light flashing in the woods from a long distance away. , he reined in his horse and shouted to the crowd: "Come on, there are people in the woods."

"Of course there are people here. There are several villages on the other side of the mountain." Ma Yuxiao stopped, looked at Zhu Xun amusedly, and said, "Why are you so surprised?"

Zhu Xun waved his hand and said, "It's not ordinary people, I think they have knives in their hands."

After he finished speaking, everyone's expressions changed, Zhao Dong frowned and said, "Did you see clearly?"

"It's not wrong, I can see it clearly." After Zhu Xun finished speaking, Ma Yuxiao laughed, "Okay, if you have a knife, it's also for mowing grass. Your eyes are blurred."

Zhu Xun was furious, looked at Ma Yuxiao and said, "It can't be a knife for mowing grass. Do you dare to go in with me to have a look."

Ma Yuxiao looked back at Zhao Dong in a daze, Zhao Dong nodded, and said, "This kind of thing is honestly not a joke." Then he looked back at the Temple of Heaven, "Go and have a look."

The party really parked the horse on the side of the road, pushed through the grass and entered the mountain, and after walking thirty or so steps, not to mention that they didn't even see a rabbit, Ma Yuxiao said: "I said you misread it. "As he spoke, he yelled into the inside, "Is there anyone inside, make a sound."

No one responded, but a few birds were startled.

"Impossible." Zhu Xun pushed aside the grass and walked inside, "You guys wait here, I'll look for it. I was clearly here just now."

Zhao Dong called him, "Forget it, it's getting late, let's go back to the city." Zhu Xun waved his hands and went into the mountain without looking back.

"Then I'll help him find it. You go out and wait. If there is no confirmation today, Zhu Zhengyan may stay here." He said, everyone nodded and went out of the mountain, Zhao Dong went Walking in the other direction, he shouted, "Zhengyan, I'm looking here, call me if you need something."

"Okay." Zhu Xun took Chang Sui for fifty or sixty steps and still didn't see anyone, and he began to wonder if he had read it wrong.

But that cold light was too strange, it was definitely not the light that the common people's knives for chopping wood could emit.

"My son, go back." Chang Sui said, "It's getting late!"

Zhu Xun glanced around unwillingly, and suddenly in the grass on one side, four people rushed towards them. He was startled and quickly backed away. It was still holding a sickle.

"Thiefs!" One of the four said, "Take your life."

Zhu Xun was shocked, it turned out to be a person from the Later Song Dynasty, he turned around and grabbed the nearest person, easily brought the knife in the opponent's hand, and slashed with his backhand, that person fell to the ground.

Zhu Xun was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the other party didn't have martial arts, and he didn't dodge. He turned his heart, and the other three people rushed over, brandishing their sickles with a murderous look, and Zhu Xun calmly greeted them.

But in a blink of an eye, all four of them fell to the ground, and his body and face were also covered with blood.

"Your Majesty." Chang Sui pulled Zhu Xun to leave, "Hurry up, they might have accomplices, it's too dangerous to stay here."

Zhu Xun waved his hands, squatted down and searched the four of them. The four of them had nothing but some dry food and water. He looked at Chang Sui strangely, "Do you think anything is weird?"

"Yes...it's a bit." Chang Sui said, "Damn, it's too easy."

Jumping out suddenly, they all died within a few rounds.

At this moment, someone behind Zhu Xun said, "Zhengyan, what's going on."

"Your Highness." Zhu Xun looked back at Zhao Dong, "These four people jumped out to assassinate them, saying they were the remnants of the Later Song Dynasty."

Zhao Dong was stunned for a moment, and looked at him in surprise, "How can there be remnants of the Later Song Dynasty around here?" He went up and kicked the corpses of the four people, checked them with his hands, and carefully rummaged through his clothes and purses. Waiting, looking back at Zhu Xun, said: "Look at them, their hands are calloused, their arms are loose, they don't look like martial arts practitioners at all." He frowned and looked at Zhu Xun, "Are you sure they are Remnants of the Later Song Dynasty?"

Zhu Xun nodded, "When he rushed out, he called me a thief." Then, he looked at Zhao Dong suspiciously, "Your Highness thinks so?"

"Of course not. If people search now, their family members will definitely be found in the nearby villages." Zhao Dong pointed to the sickle, "Look at this knife. This kind of thing assassinates. Besides, you are not very skilled, how can you kill four people at once."

Zhu Xun was in a cold sweat... What Zhao Dong meant was that he didn't kill the assassin, but the people nearby.

"You." Zhao Dong looked at Zhu Xun helplessly, "Before everyone finds out, we should bury the person first. Later, we will send someone to secretly search for their family members, just to compensate some money."

Zhu Xun was astonished.

"Look at me. Bury people first. If they are really assassins, then dig them out. But if they are ordinary people, if you shout out now, can you deal with the aftermath?" Zhao Dong said.

Zhu Xun nodded with a dazed expression, what Zhao Dong said was indeed reasonable.

"You, think carefully before doing something next time, and don't act impulsively." Zhao Dong looked at Zhu Xun helplessly, "Come and dig a hole, everyone should be here soon."

Zhu Xun looked at Zhao Dong gratefully, and said, "Thank you for your reminder today, otherwise this matter would be really difficult."

If he really killed the wrong person... This is four lives, even if he is the son of the world, he can't fool it.

Not to mention beheading, the position of the son of the world will definitely not be kept, and maybe he will be sent to the army.

Even if the Holy Majesty didn't want to punish him, he still had to give the people an explanation...Zhu Xun's mind was buzzing, and he followed Zhao Dong to do things.

"We are brothers." Zhao Dong patted Zhu Xun on the shoulder, "It's meaningless for brothers to say these polite things."

I didn't think it before, but now I think Zhao Dong is very kind. Zhu Xun smiled and was about to speak, when suddenly he heard a female voice shouting, "Zhu Zhengyan, where are you?"

It's Su Jin!Zhu Xun's eyes lit up, and Zhao Dong stopped him, "Who is it? Is it appropriate to let her in."

"It's Aunt Su from Baoying Embroidery Workshop. You saw her last time in the main hall. She's fine." Zhu Xun acted as if his savior had come, "Ajin, I'm here."

Zhao Dong's face darkened.
