While Zhu Jinghong was chatting happily with the generals, the emperor of Qianqing Palace was also paying attention to Wuying Palace.
On the lounge chair in the corridor of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xianming put down his book and said slowly: "In other words... this kid still has the intention to brag with Niu Jizong and others in Wuying Palace?"
Dai Quan hooked his waist and replied carefully: "The Thirteenth Master was very excited when he said it. It seems that he didn't care about the assassination!"
Zhu Xianming basically knew what happened when Zhu Jinghong left the palace today and arrived at Prince Rui's Mansion.
The oolong incident of "assassination" has naturally become an important situation, and Dongchang has launched a special investigation for this purpose.
His Majesty the Emperor was furious because he dared to attack his own son, and now he naturally wanted to take action personally.
Zhu Xianming said coldly: "This bastard has already had trouble in Jinling. If he is not careful now, I think he will get into trouble sooner or later!"
At this moment, a eunuch rushed in outside the Qianqing Gate. It was Wang Qing, the manager of the Dongchang.
"I'm here to greet you, Your Majesty!" Wang Qing knelt under the imperial steps, looking extremely frightened.
Seeing that the emperor was silent, Dai Quan turned around very cautiously and asked, "Why are you back so soon?"
"Back to father-in-law, after I arrived at Qianhu Station in Nancheng, the prisoner in the Jinyi Guard Cell... bit his tongue and committed suicide!"
After saying this, Wang Qing knocked his head to the ground again, fearing that his words would arouse the emperor's anger.
Turning his head and glancing at Wang Qing on the ground, Zhu Xianming said coldly: "Dead? What a coincidence. Who is Jin Yiwei interrogating?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Thirteenth Master assigned Li Wenzhao, the deputy Qianhu of the Nan Qianhu Office, to interrogate. Later, the Beizhen Fusi learned about the case and felt that the case was serious and sent someone to interrogate!"
Wang Qing said these words in one breath, which shows that he knew that the emperor was going to ask about this matter, so he prepared the draft in advance.
"Beizhen Fusi sent someone? Who sent someone?"
"Command Zhang Qian!"
When Zhu Xianming heard the name Zhang Qian, he thought of his eldest son, the sixth child, who had flirted with him.
Could this matter still be related to Lao Liu?
Thinking of this, Zhu Xianming became more and more upset, so much so that he did not dare to think deeply.
"Jin Yiwei, don't get involved in this matter. Let your Dongchang investigate. Keep a low profile!"
"This slave accepts the order!"
It was rare that Zhu Xianming didn't lose his temper, which made Dai Quan and Dai Quan feel a lot more at ease, and then they asked for orders to go on errands.
After the two men retreated, Zhu Xianming threw the books in his hands aside and said with an angry voice: "Go...call Old Thirteen over!"
"yes!"
Outside Wuying Palace, Zhu Jinghong was chatting all over the world, which really surprised all the senior military officers present.
They also didn't expect that the Thirteenth Master would have so many fantastic ideas. Although they seemed a bit unreasonable, they actually made sense when they thought about it carefully.
Of course, what shocked them the most was the "future war" described by Zhu Jinghong.
Guns are like a forest, bullets are like rain, the fighting will shake the earth and the sky...
The Ming Dynasty was gradually entering the era of hot weapons. Although they were surprised by Zhu Jinghong's description, they generally knew that this was the future trend.
"Seniors, you need to practice archery, horse riding, and archery, but the world will eventually be dominated by guns and cannons. You need to think more about how to fight a battle!"
"What I practiced in Shanglinyuan is the result of my thinking about future wars. There are still many shortcomings in it, and you have to improve it!"
Everyone looked thoughtful, and the idea of "future war" appeared in their minds for the first time.
I only heard Niu Jizong sighing: "Being ahead of the enemy is the real way to anticipate the enemy!"
When Zhu Jinghong wanted to make a speech, a eunuch ran towards him quickly.
"Thirteenth Master, the Lord has summoned you to see you!"
Zhu Jinghong became nervous for a moment and asked: "Now?"
"Now, please, Thirteenth Master!"
"good!"
After swallowing his saliva, Zhu Jinghong said to the generals: "Everyone... I'll come as soon as I go!"
At this time, someone said half-jokingly: "Thirteenth Master, take care!"
So Zhu Jinghong turned around and left, following the eunuch all the way to Qianqing Palace. At this moment, the emperor was sitting on a chair reading a book.
Walking to the corridor with his head lowered, Zhu Jinghong said carefully: "Dad...you have something to do with your son?"
"You were assassinated today when you left the palace, and you don't plan to explain it to me?"
"Dad, the assassin was caught on the spot, and my son has asked the guards to investigate!"
"Now that Grandpa's birthday is approaching, it's not easy to hear things getting serious, so my son didn't say anything about it!"
Zhu Xianming was really surprised to hear that Zhu Jinghong had considered everything carefully.
"As long as you understand, I have ordered Dongchang to investigate this matter, so don't worry about it anymore!" Zhu Xianming said calmly.
"yes!"
"Lao Liu invited you to be a guest. Is this what I sent today?"
"yes!"
"You went directly after being invited?"
"yes!"
"Go to Dong'an Gate from Donghua Gate to leave the palace?"
"yes!"
Why does the old man ask all these nonsense questions? Zhu Jinghong couldn't figure it out for a while.
He never would have thought that Zhu Xianming, like Zhu Jingyuan, was wondering whether the prince's people were causing trouble.
The East Palace is between Donghua Gate and Dong'an Gate. They can detect Zhu Jinghong's trip in time and arrange manpower in advance for the "assassination".
Of course, while he was suspicious of the prince, Zhu Xianming also couldn't trust Lao Liu, who would have killed Beizhen Fusi as soon as he intervened.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xianming only felt sad, and finally he could only sigh.
Looking at his honest and honest eldest son, Zhu Xianming said earnestly: "You kid, please be careful and take more precautions when you leave the palace. If something happens to your mother, don't you worry to death?"
It was rare for the old man to have a good face, so Zhu Jinghong smiled and said: "Dad... don't worry, my son cherishes his life the most!"
"Today the Wuying Palace is giving a banquet, and all the people who are here are foreigners. Your fourth brother has a kind and weak temperament, so you have to help him!"
The emperor actually said such words, which really surprised Zhu Jinghong.
This also fully shows that the emperor recognized his ability, which shows that Zhu Jinghong's efforts were not in vain.
"Don't worry, Dad, if anyone dares to make a mistake, my son will crush his eggs!"
This is called giving a little sunshine and it will shine. Obviously, Zhu Jinghong did it deliberately to prevent the old man from thinking too highly of himself.
He just wanted to grow up in a wretched way and enjoy the double attraction of the Crown Prince and Prince Rui, and he didn't want to compete with these two men yet.
After hearing Zhu Jinghong's words, the emperor's face suddenly became ugly.
"roll!"
"Yes... my son is resigning!"
After saying this, Zhu Jinghong bowed his waist and retreated, while Zhu Xianming lost his stern expression and frowned again in thought.
Today's assassination incident, if the two sons were really causing trouble... Thinking of this, he only felt sad.
But what he was more afraid of was that the queen would know about it.
The queen has always been in poor health, so she must be heartbroken and disappointed to learn that she is now sick, and it is very possible that she will fall ill.
"What a sin!" Zhu Xianming sighed in his heart.
He himself had no right to blame his two sons, because what he did back then was even more inhumane and could even be said to be unscrupulous.
But then again, this "assassination" incident was essentially a mistake, but it can no longer be explained with the death of two people.
At this moment, outside Donghua Gate, Dai Quan, the governor of Dongchang, stood at the gate of Dongchang, looking coldly at Li Qingxiang, the commander and commander of Beizhen Fusi, and others.
"The Lord has said that this matter will be investigated by Dongchang. If your people are interrogated then, please don't push back!"
The person who spoke was Wang Qing, the eunuch in charge. He failed to bring back the prisoner alive today, which made him lose his reputation in front of the emperor. Wang Qing naturally had a bad look towards the Jin Yiwei people.
Li Qingxiang, a fellow commander, also had a bad look on his face, but now that the people in Dongchang had received the order, he could not refute anything.
