"Brother, this palace wall is so high!"
"Of course, this is the palace, where the emperor lives!"
"With such a high wall, if my aunt lives in it, will she be suffocated for decades?"
"Stop talking nonsense and walk honestly. I told you this is not home!" Zhen Qi scolded her with a serious face.
"oh……"
When the Zhen brothers and sisters entered the palace, Hidetoshi Okamoto, who had already reported to the Ministry of Rites, was already rushing to Donghua Gate under the guidance of officials from the Ministry of Rites.
Originally, the closest way to the palace was through the Meridian Gate, but a court meeting was being held inside and the Meridian Gate was closed, so we had to take a detour.
When Okamoto Hideyuan approached Donghua Gate, Zhu Jinghong and the guards in Longwu Courtyard had already eaten and drank contentedly, and were walking out arm-in-arm.
Unfortunately, as soon as they walked out of Longwu Gate, they were met by Hideyoshi Okamoto who entered Donghua Gate.
Hou Jing was so drunk that he went crazy with alcohol in front of everyone, running around the open space and mumbling something.
Perhaps it was God's will that Okamoto Hidetoshi's strange clothes attracted Hou Jing, so the guy went up to him directly.
"You...who are you?"
Now there is a big court meeting, and as a bodyguard, he is drunk, which makes the leading official of the Ministry of Etiquette very angry.
"It's unbecoming to be drunk in the army. Why don't you get down quickly?"
Who is Hou Jing? The second generation of the top martial arts in the dynasty, how could he take a small civil servant in his eyes? At this moment, he didn't pay attention to him at all.
Arriving in front of Okamoto Hideyuan, Hou Jing asked arrogantly: "I want to ask... what are you talking about?"
Not far away, Zhu Jinghong, surrounded by guards, could see clearly that these were Japanese.
Since it was these things, he would naturally not intervene and let Hou Jing mess around at the moment.
At this moment, Okamoto Hideyuan was furious, but this was the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty, how could he dare to act rashly.
So he looked at the official from the Ministry of Rites next to him, hoping that the other party could solve the problem.
However, at this moment, the officials of the Ministry of Rites clearly saw Zhu Jinghong behind him, so they trotted towards him, hoping that he would restrain the guards.
But before the official from the Ministry of Rites could speak, Hou Jing, seeing Okamoto Hideyuan not replying, actually reached out and slapped him on the face.
He was already holding his breath, but now he was so humiliated. How could Okamoto Hideyuan be able to hold back, and immediately angrily yelled: "Baga..."
Of course Hou Jing didn't understand Japanese, but he could still infer from Hideyoshi Okamoto's tone and demeanor that the other party was cursing.
Hou Jing couldn't bear it anymore, so he immediately slapped him, knocking Okamoto Hideyuan to the ground.
Hou Jing immediately cursed: "Damn it, how dare you be so arrogant in front of the Thirteenth Master!"
Seeing this scene, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help but laugh and said: "He is smart enough to beat people under my banner!"
Seeing Okamoto Hideyuan being knocked to the ground, several Japanese officials quickly stepped forward to help him up, looking at Hou Jing with angry eyes.
"Thirteenth Master, you have to take care of yourself. These are envoys from Japan. They come to our country..."
Before the official from the Ministry of Rites could finish his words, Zhu Jinghong interrupted: "Japanese... you just have to treat him as a human being!"
"Master Thirteen, but they..."
"Isn't it just to beat him? I think he should be beaten..."
Looking at the angry expressions of several Japanese people, Zhu Jinghong continued: "Look at their unruly looks, do they still show respect to me, the Ming Dynasty?"
"I think it's still not enough, so please continue beating...hard!"
"yes!"
Everyone had drunk, and at this moment, Zhu Jinghong gave the order, and they didn't care about beating people at all.
As a result, a group of guards swarmed up and surrounded Okamoto Hideyuan, punching and kicking several people. For a while, words like "Baga" and "Yameide" were flying around.
"Stop, stop... don't fight, don't fight anymore..."
Officials from the Ministry of Rites ran around the crowd and shouted in an attempt to stop the crowd from attacking, but it was of no use.
The movement here quickly attracted the surrounding guards on duty to check.
"What are you doing? Presumptuous..."
The leader was a Qianhu, followed by more than a dozen guards.
Although the rank of the Dragon Guard Qianhu is high, they only have a hundred or ten people under their command, and the person who came here is the chief security officer of the Donghuamen area.
At this time, Zhu Jinghong said: "Who is yelling?"
He planned to forcefully disperse the crowd, but after hearing Zhu Jinghong's words, the Qianhu man immediately came over to greet him.
First he saluted, and then Zheng Quanyang asked: "Thirteenth Master, what are you doing?"
"These Japanese people are rude and I have people teach them a lesson. If anything happens, I will take full responsibility for it and you don't have to worry about it!"
"But in this imperial palace, the murderous and ruthless people will eventually..."
Zhu Jinghong interrupted: "Go and tell Lu Wenxiang that you can't stop me, and he won't punish you harshly!"
Lu Wenxiang is the commander of the Dragon Imperial Guard and an absolute confidant of the emperor.
"this……"
"Go quickly!"
There was no way, Zheng Quanyang really couldn't stop it, so he could only report it according to the procedures and leave the trouble to Lu Wenxiang to deal with.
"You... you, Zheng Qianhu... can't leave!"
The official of the Ministry of Rites was about to cry but had no tears. He thought that reinforcements had arrived, but he didn't know that Zheng Quanyang was so unreliable.
Looking at the official of the Ministry of Rites and smiling, Zhu Jinghong said: "Just beat me hard, don't kill me!"
The Japanese sent an envoy, most likely to ease relations, but how could Zhu Jinghong make him do so.
Of course, he knew the consequences of hitting someone very well, and he had already thought of how to explain it to ensure that the emperor would not be too angry.
They were in the middle of a fight, and the Zhen family brother and sister, who had also taken a detour, arrived at the Donghua Gate and were shocked to see the scene before them.
"Brother, this...is this the palace? Why are there still fights?"
Zhen Qin felt it was outrageous, and so did Zhen Qi beside her. This really refreshed their understanding.
"Father-in-law, what's going on?"
"This...this, I don't know either!" The little eunuch who led the way looked confused.
Zhen Qi, who had sharp ears, vaguely heard the words "Baga", so he looked carefully at the crowd, and sure enough he saw that the one being beaten was a Japanese.
"Then...that's not the Japanese ambassador. Who dares to beat him in the palace?"
Just after he finished saying this, he heard the young eunuch on the side exclaim: "It's the Thirteenth Master!"
"Who?" Zhen Qin was the first to ask.
"It's the Thirteenth Master!" the young eunuch replied.
No matter how outrageous Zhu Jinghong did, it was not uncommon in this palace, so the eunuch's expression returned to normal.
But at this moment, the Zhen brothers and sisters had different thoughts in their minds.
Zhen Qi was wondering why Zhu Jinghong beat the Japanese, while Zhen Qin was more concerned about who the Thirteenth Master was and whether he looked handsome or not.
"That's Master Thirteen, I'll take you over to meet him!"
After the young eunuch finished speaking, he led Zhen Qin and others over.
After getting closer, Zhen Qi didn't feel anything, but Zhen Qin's eyes widened.
"Slave, please see Master Thirteen!"
At this moment, Zhu Jinghong also noticed the Zhen brothers and sisters, and a smile appeared on his face again.
"What a coincidence, we meet again!"
"See you, Thirteenth Master!" Zhen Qi quickly knelt down and saluted.
meet again? Do we know each other well? Zhen Qi was confused.
But when he looked carefully, he saw that Thirteenth Master ignored him at all, but looked at his sister who was still standing aside.
"Second sister, hurry up and salute!" Zhen Qi scolded in a low voice, secretly thinking that this girl is not worrying anyone.
But Zhen Qin was shocked and said: "It's you? You're actually..."
