Zhang Yu gritted his teeth: "I can only report the truth."
Mao Xiang nodded: "That's fine."
Although it is difficult to convince Lao Zhu with the truth, if they lie, Lao Zhu will think that they are colluding with Zhu Xi once he finds out the truth.
Fugui was already crying: "Your Highness, where are you? Why don't you bring Fugui with you? You always brought Fugui with you wherever you went."
Zhang Yu and the others had red eyes after hearing this.
Putting aside their own lives and responsibilities, their relationship with Zhu Bai had already surpassed that of master, servant, or general.
To them now, Zhu Bai is a comrade who eats from the pot, a leader who always considers them.

Deng Zhiqiu returned to the palace and devoured three bowls of rice. In the end, Zhu Fang was afraid that she might burst, so he held her down and she stopped.
Zhu Xi asked someone to fetch water for Deng Zhiqiu to bathe. The maids were frightened by the injuries all over Deng Zhiqiu's body.
They used to hate Deng Zhiqiu, but now they see how miserable she is, and they feel a little sympathetic.
Seeing them staring at him, Deng Zhiqiu widened his eyes and screamed like a ghost: "What are you looking at? Are you laughing at me and laughing at me for being unclean? Bitch, you bitches!! Get out of here!" .Get out.”
She picked up the basin next to her and threw it towards the maids.
The maids were so frightened that they turned and fled through the door.
Zhu Xi heard the commotion and came over to look, and saw Deng Zhiqiu's skinny body with scars as messy as wind scars on the Gobi.
New wounds overlap old wounds.
Over and over again, it can be seen that there is no day without being beaten.
Deng Zhiqiu hurriedly pulled his clothes to cover himself and said, "Don't look at me, don't look at me. I'm so dirty, I'm so ugly."
Zhu Xi went in and closed the door, holding Deng Zhiqiu and sobbing in pain.
Deng Zhiqiu rested for a few days before going to see Wang Xiaoyue.
She took a knife and a whip and wanted to return all the torture Wang Baobao had inflicted on her to Wang Xiaoyue.
Wang Xiaoyue looked at her mockingly: "You actually have the nerve and nerve to hit me? You should thank God and King Xiang for coming back alive. If His Highness King Qin hadn't exchanged King Xiang for my brother, you would have died on the grassland. , the corpses will be fed to wolves."
The coldness in her eyes made Deng Zhiqiu feel like he was seeing Wang Baobao again.
Her eyes widened in horror, and the knife and whip in her hands fell to the ground. She took a step back and squatted down, holding her head. Her whole body was shaking like chaff: "Don't hit me, don't hit me."
Wang Xiaoyue walked over slowly: "I advise the concubine to restrain herself. From now on, be compassionate, be kind to others, and advise His Highness. You will serve His Highness well, and I will manage the palace well, and we will not violate the river. Otherwise, we will be arrested again in the future. Stay, no one can save you."
Deng Zhiqiu returned to his palace and stayed behind closed doors.
Zhu Xi came back from outside and saw her shivering in the corner. He hugged her and said, "What's going on?"
I have finally recovered a little in the past few days, why is it like this again?
Deng Zhiqiu looked at Zhu Ming with fierce anger and hatred in his eyes: "It's all your fault, if you hadn't insisted on marrying me. I wouldn't have not seen my father for the last time, nor would I have been suppressed by Wang Xiaoyue. There is no need to suffer these pains. Get out of here and get out of here."
She didn't know where the strength came from to push Zhu Xi out, and then locked the door.
Zhu Pang grabbed the maid and asked, "What exactly are you going to do today?"
The maid trembled and said incoherently: "The princess went to the Buddhist hall to seek revenge on the princess."
Zhu Fang's anger surged to the top of his head. He took the whip and walked to the Buddhist hall. He pushed away the maid who tried to stop him, went straight to Wang Xiaoyue who was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, and raised the whip at her back.
Wang Xiaoyue glanced back coldly.
Zhu Xi's whip stopped in mid-air.
Wang Xiaoyue asked calmly: "Guess, if my brother knew you were doing this to me, he would take Deng Zhiqiu away again."
Zhu Xi took a step back: "You are a devil."
Wang Xiaoyue stood up, her eyes full of compassion: "I once thought that although you were reckless, you were still smart. But now I know that you are so stupid that you don't know how to look back after suffering a loss. There is no man on the grassland who is better than you." . What a pity. What a pity that all my good years were wasted on you."
Zhu Xi threw away the whip, closed the door with his hands behind his back, bolted the door, and approached step by step: "Come to think of it, we have been called husband and wife for so many years, but we have not yet become husband and wife."
Wang Xiaoyue took a step back and said in a trembling voice: "This is the Buddhist hall."
Zhu Xi laughed: "I will definitely go to the eighteenth level of hell when I die. I don't care about this extra sin."
-----
Wang Baobao was driving the horse in front. After confirming that it was safe, he jumped off the carriage, pulled out his knife, went around to the back, opened the door and grabbed Hongyuan, intending to drag the old and young monks out of the carriage and deal with them on the spot.
Although I don't know why Zhu Xi sent these two people together, it is useless for him to take them home anyway, and it will waste food, so it is better to solve them one by one now.
But Zhu Bai said: "Hey, eh, eh. Mr. Wang, do it slowly. These two people are worth more than me."
Wang Baobao stopped. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhu Bai: "You want to lie to me again. What use can these two bald donkeys do?"
Zhu Bai: "The two of them have been famous holy monks since the Yuan Dynasty. As long as they sit there, countless people will bow and pay tribute. Even the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty showed courtesy to them. If you kill them, you will be punished by heaven." They are the ones who win the hearts of the people and are jealous of Zhu Ping. But Zhu Ping didn’t dare to kill them, so he left them to you. He didn’t just want to frame you.”
Wang Baobao gave them a doubtful look.
Indeed, I heard that the monks appointed by Lao Zhu to each prince were highly virtuous and highly respected.
It was a pleasure to kill him with one knife, but he helped Zhu Ping take over the crime of killing, at the expense of himself and others.
The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty firmly believed in Tibetan Tantric Buddhism. Although it was different from the Tianzhu Buddhism of these monks, they were both Buddhism and talked about cause and effect and reincarnation.
Even he has listened to many eminent monks preaching Buddhist scriptures.
He asked: "What should we do? Throw them back to Xi'an?"
Zhu Bai: "That won't work. If you throw them back, Zhu Ping will just ask others to ignore them, and in the end their death will still be counted on you. You have to send them to Peking and get out of Zhu Ping's territory. Of course my fourth brother I will take them in. When the time comes, they will definitely be grateful for your kindness, and they will chant sutras and pray for you every day, which is one of your merits."
Wang Baobao looked at Hongyuan with doubts and trust: "Really?"
Hongyuan wants to take Zhu Bai with him.
But on the way just now, Zhu Bai took out the waist tag that he had hidden next to his boots and gave it to him, and warned him in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If there is a chance to escape with the apprentice, the master must not hesitate. I will naturally do it." There is a way to escape. I am willing to follow Zhu Xi and pretend to be trapped in order to save you. If you don't leave, all my efforts will be in vain. Master, if you hold this sign, the fourth brother will come to pick you up personally. Master, you must tell him clearly according to what I told you, without missing a word. Whether I can escape smoothly depends on whether, master, you can make it clear to His Highness King Yan."
