Xiao San was feeling a little uneasy now, and he understood clearly that Zhu Youxu was planning to use him as a shield.
Looking at the level of attention this time, Xiao San doesn't think it's simple. If the matter is too big, he won't protect it.
On the contrary, if he gets into trouble, he must kill Zhu Youxu first, and finally give the emperor a corpse.
"It's okay now. Your Majesty is afraid that I will have to find someone to deliver the message in the future. I have to leave quickly."
Seeing that it was getting late, I couldn't continue talking, so I walked out.
"Who should I ask to deliver the letter? Aren't I just a human being?"
After hearing what Eunuch He said, he quickly stopped the latter and said.
"Okay, this letter was sent to Shanhaiguan by His Majesty. Your mission is to find King Xianghuai as soon as possible!"
Regarding the letter in his arms, Xiao Hezi had to find someone he could trust, and he also knew that Xiao San and Hu Yunqing also had some problems with each other.
"Okay, hurry up and send Eunuch He off."
After hearing what Eunuch He said, Xiao San did not continue to persuade him to stay, but signaled his subordinates to send him away.
"You heard it all."
Seeing Xiao Hezi leaving, Zhu Youxu, who had been hiding, came out and stood next to Xiao San and said.
"I heard, you really are not a fuel-efficient person."
Xiao San did not expect that Prince Ming next to him would be wanted by his brother. It also made Xiao San feel funny.
"Don't you want to make a scene? Just wait for the knife to fall on your neck and let others slaughter you!"
Listening to Xiao San's sarcasm next to him, why did Zhu Youxu not want to be a free prince? He didn't expect that Hu Yunqing would get into trouble with him. He looked next to him and asked Xiao San, who had the same hatred as Hu Yunqing.
"Go, follow Eunuch He secretly and see who he meets. If you go back to the palace after meeting him, you must bring him back to me!"
Zhu Youxu's words hit Xiao San's heart like a bomb, and he would not have gotten involved before.
Now that he knows that the emperor has targeted him, Xiao San also knows Chongzhen's character very well, and Wei Zhongxian is his right-hand man, his end will definitely not be good.
He thought of what Eunuch Zhang had said when he left just now, saying that he wanted to deliver a message to Hu Yunqing. Xiao Hezi was a member of the emperor's family. If he died suddenly, he would definitely not let it go easily.
"As you command!"
After Xiao San received the order, a guard quickly left the East Factory.
"Aren't you worried about your subordinates?"
Zhu Youxu also had a smile on his face, looking in the direction of the door and asked.
"These are all my cronies. I have trained them with my own hands. They will never betray me!"
Xiao San smiled disapprovingly and said to Zhu Youxu next to him.
"You are wanted now, so you should stay here and don't cause trouble at this time, otherwise it will be difficult for me to explain."
Looking at Zhu Youxu next to him, he was the one who made him most worried.
"Okay, resting here for a few days is also a good choice."
...
"Okay, send it to Shanhaiguan quickly. Be sure to pay attention to safety."
Finally, Xiao Hezi came to the city defense camp, called a soldier, put the letter away for him, and warned him several times worriedly.
Xiao Hezi sent him to the city gate. Seeing the soldiers leaving, he took the carriage back to the palace with confidence.
After Xiao Hezi left, a man in smart clothes rode out of the city.
He quickly caught up with the soldier who delivered the message. He originally wanted to follow the order and take the people back to Dongchang, but found that the other party had been resisting. Xiao San's bodyguard was not polite and directly understood the soldier with a knife.
He found a letter from the soldier and rode back to the city with the letter.
Early the next morning, the generals from the patrol camp came to the palace and found Eunuch He.
"The person who delivered the message is dead?"
After hearing what the general said, Xiao Hezi was also shocked that someone dared to attack the soldiers.
"Early this morning, we found the body of a soldier not far outside the city. Preliminary analysis shows that the soldier was killed last night."
"I understand, you go down first."
After hearing this, Xiao Hezi waved his hand and hurried back to the palace to report to the emperor.
"It seems that he is really going after Hu Yunqing."
After hearing what Xiao Hezi said, Chongzhen was not surprised, but had expected it.
"Your Majesty, do you think King Xianghuai did it this time?"
Listening to the emperor's words, Xiao Hezi also understood something.
"Who knows about this?"
Nowadays, there are many people in the capital who have grudges against Hu Yunqing, but those who really dare to take action are extremely rare. You can think of them with your toes.
"I didn't tell anyone!"
This was also what puzzled Xiao Hezi. He had obviously arranged it himself, and no one had told anyone else about it.
"Please think about it carefully for me!"
Hearing that Xiao Hezi didn't say anything about this, Chongzhen didn't believe it at all and roared at Xiao Hezi below.
Seeing that the emperor was angry, Xiao Hezi quickly knelt on the ground, knocked his head on the ground and began to remember.
"Yes, when I was in Dongchang, I seemed to have mentioned sending a letter."
Finally, he thought about it and quickly raised his head and said to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, are you talking about Xiao San doing this? Even if you borrow his courage, you wouldn't dare to do such a thing."
After saying it, Xiao Hezi denied it again. Although the two had grievances before, they were all minor matters and there was no need to do so.
"Is there anything impossible! Hurry up and take the people to Dongchang to search for me and see if Zhu Youxu is there!"
Thinking of these things, Chongzhen felt that such a coincidence could not happen. He thought of the most impossible possibility for a while, and quickly issued an order to Xiao Hezi.
"Yes, I'll go now!"
After hearing the emperor's decree, Xiao Hezi hurriedly left the hall without any time to think.
"Royal brother, what are you doing? Don't force me!"
Although Chongzhen doted on his younger brother since childhood, the emperor's family had been ruthless since ancient times, and Chongzhen was a little melancholy.
"Commander Xue, His Majesty asked you to take some people with me to Dongchang!"
Soon Xiao Hezi came to the house of the commander of the Forbidden Army and hurriedly said to Commander Xue.
"Okay, huh? What are you going to do in Dongchang?"
Originally, Eunuch He came to call for help, and Commander Xue was about to call for help, but when he heard where he was going, he was startled.
"Look if King Xianghuai is here! Get your soldiers together quickly."
Xiao Hezi had no time to talk nonsense and stood anxiously at the door.
"Father, you also know what Dongchang's people are for. If I take someone to Dongchang and have a conflict with the other party, you are the person next to His Majesty. Xiao San doesn't dare to do anything. What about the soldiers below? Qidongchang is offended!"
Hearing that he was indeed going to Dongchang, Commander Xue quickly pulled Xiao Hezi aside and whispered to him.
"Are you afraid of death! Do you want to resist the decree?"
After listening to Commander Xue's words, Xiao Hezi's expression changed by the way, and he questioned Commander Xue with a gloomy face.
