Seeing the smile on Zhu Zhelin's face, Zhao Xuanyi had a bad feeling in his heart. No matter what Zhu Zhelin did, he was still the prince of the Ming Dynasty and the prince of the dynasty. Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly clasped his fists and bent down to salute, "See you, prince!"
Zhu Zhelin turned around and looked, "Hey, the prince is here, meet the prince!" Zhu Zhelin bowed in a fake manner.
"Third brother, you don't have to be polite!" Zhu Wenyu was also very surprised. Why is he here? What's the matter?
"I wonder if the prince is here late at night for something?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
Zhu Zhelin looked at Zhao Xuanyi and couldn't help but sneer, "I'm here to see how arrogant, arrogant and lawless the Lord Protector of the Ming Dynasty is now!"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he felt an inexplicable fear in his heart. Zhu Zhelin never struck a stick that he was unsure of. This guy is not simple. "I'm really sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't understand what you said!"
"You, Mr. Zhao Guo! You sent thousands of Qilin Guards to the villages outside the capital late at night. Regardless of the reason and regardless of the law, they arrived and killed all my more than 30 men. I want to ask Mr. Zhao, what are you doing? What do you mean? Could it be that after becoming the Protector of the Country, even this king doesn’t care about him? Are you hunting Ming soldiers wantonly? Do you have royalty in your eyes?”
Zhao Xuanyi's mind went blank after saying these few words. What did Zhu Zhelin mean by this? Of course the people who killed you did it because they deserved to be killed. They kidnapped my woman and I sent people...?
etc! Something seemed to be wrong. Zhao Xuanyi turned to look at Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong. They both shook their heads. Zhao Xuanyi's eyes suddenly widened. At this moment, he realized that he had been tricked by Zhu Zhelin!
There were no kidnapped people in the villages outside the city. Tang Tianli just said that no one was found! That means Zhu Zhelin deliberately ambush his people there. On the day Du Xinyu and Qin Jinyi were kidnapped, Zhu Zhelin deliberately took a car out of the city!
In order to create an illusion for himself, he sent the kidnapped girl out of the city, and then used these thirty people to set up a trap in the village, waiting for him to find out. You must go all out, this is exactly Zhu Zhelin's trap!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zhu Zhelin in astonishment. Seeing the arrogant smile on Zhu Zhelin's face, Zhao Xuanyi thought to himself that this is a poisonous snake. Let yourself jump into the trap. This guy is really good at playing! How could he fall into his trap so easily!
Everything was arranged by Zhu Zhelin, and he was like a fool. Now the Qilin Guards killed more than thirty people of Zhu Zhelin for no reason. Although these thirty people were nothing, they were Zhu Zhelin's people, the Protector of the Country. Killing the prince's men, if there is no suitable reason, it would be very difficult to be kind!
Zhu Zhelin looked at Zhao Xuanyi with a smile on his face, "I said Zhao Guogong, you don't think that this matter will just go away if you don't speak, right? Although you Qilin Guards have made great achievements for the Ming Dynasty, this is not the reason for you to kill people at will. , if you don’t give me a reasonable explanation, we will discuss this matter with my father in the morning meeting tomorrow!”
Zhao Xuanyi was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and his lips were trembling, but he couldn't say a word. Although Zhu Zhelin is a paper tiger now, he can still bite people, and a bite is still fatal! Is this a conspiracy between the government and the opposition? Really awesome!
Everyone present heard Zhu Zhelin's words and understood that Zhao Xuanyi was plotted by Zhu Zhelin, and these were thirty lives for no reason. If all of these were counted on Zhao Xuanyi's head, Zhao Xuanyi's title would probably be lost again. If it doesn't work, there will be a lawsuit. For a while, everyone was so scared that they didn't dare to speak, and no one dared to breathe!
Just when Zhao Xuanyi didn't know how to answer, a person walked out from behind and came to Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong [Papa! 】Just two slaps!
"How many times have I told you? I want you to confirm before taking action? Why are you so reckless? How can you kill people at will without finding out the reason? I am giving you an order to kill, but you have to take a look! Whose people are there? Where? Don’t big dogs know how to look at their owners?”
Everyone turned their heads and saw Zhu Wenyu admonishing Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong angrily. Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong looked at each other and immediately fell to their knees, "Prince Rongzhen, we have confirmed it. We will tell them when we arrive in the village."
We were asked to check our identity, but they refused to let us go, and even used a knife on us! "
"Brothers can't die in vain, so they started a melee. After defeating the enemy, they discovered that they were King Furui's men. I realized my mistake!" Tang Tianli shouted loudly.
Zhu Wenyu kicked Tang Tianli down with a kick, "You're a loser, you're more likely to fail than succeed! I'll fine you a year's salary!"
"Yes! The villain is in trouble!" Tang Tianli quickly got up and answered!
Zhu Zhelin frowned when he saw it, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by an angry expression, "Prince, what do you mean?"
Zhu Wenyu looked at Zhu Zhelin with an apologetic look on his face, "Third brother, I'm really sorry. As you know, the woman I love was kidnapped. Suddenly someone sent me a message, saying that she had appeared in a village outside the capital recently. A group of very suspicious people!"
"Then I can't let it go. I'll come to the Protector immediately and ask him to lend me some men. As you know, although I am the prince, I am also a bald general with only a few incompetent eunuchs under my command. How can anyone come? Execute the order!"
"I just borrowed the Qilin Guard. Who knew that these people are all blind people who dare to kill anyone. Third brother, you dare to kill all your people. I'm really sorry! Third brother, let's do this. I've taken care of all these people's pensions and funeral arrangements, just take it as a token of my gratitude, please don't be angry again!"
Zhu Zhelin's eyebrows stood up when he heard Zhu Wenyu's words, and his eyes were about to burst into flames. "Prince, are you too much of a protector?"
"Third Brother, what are you talking about? I borrowed some Qilin Guards, so I can't blame all this matter on the Protector, right? If you don't feel relieved, forget it! Tomorrow morning, you will accompany me to the palace, and I will take care of you. In front of the civil and military officials of the court and my father, I will personally apologize to you. If you still don’t feel relieved, let your father punish me. Do you think so?”
Zhu Wenyu said with a very sincere look. In fact, everyone can see that he is like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water!
Although Zhu Zhelin was very angry, but with the prince here, there would be no result in this matter today. Zhu Zhelin suddenly laughed, "So that's what happened. It was just a misunderstanding after a long time!"
"No!" Zhu Wenyu said with a smile.
"That's it. Since it's a misunderstanding, it'll be fine if we resolve it!" Zhu Zhelin turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi, "Zhao Guogong!"
"Your Majesty!" Zhao Xuanyi lowered his head and said.
"When you borrow someone in the future, be sure to make it clear. Don't be like today, where I almost wronged you!" Zhu Zhelin said with a smile.
"Yes, the prince is right, I must keep it in mind, little one!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he looked at Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong, "I still haven't thanked the prince for his great kindness!"
Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong hurriedly turned their heads and knelt in front of Zhu Zhelin, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me!"
"That's all! It's getting so late, and I have to go back to rest. Let's go!" After Zhu Zhelin said that, he left with Zhu Zhelin and the others.
Zhao Xuanyi and Zhu Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Zhu Zhelin leaving! No one said anything. Everyone was out of breath just now due to Zhu Zhelin's momentum. Finally, they passed without any danger!
After returning to the hall, everyone sat on the chairs one by one, with their hearts still beating wildly. Zhao Xuanyi weakly turned to look at Zhu Wenyu and cupped his fists, "Brother Qi, you saved my life today!" If you hadn't been here today, I might have been trapped by Zhu Zhelin!"
Zhu Wenyu smiled, "Brother, where are you, how many times have you saved me? We can't count between us! Remember from now on, anything you can't resolve will be directly blamed on me, because of my status as the prince. , you can do this kind of thing!"
Zhu Wenyu turned to look at Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong, "Are you two okay? Were you not broken?"
Both of them laughed, "It's okay, we are rough-skinned and thick-skinned, we have been beaten!"
"You really haven't found anyone?"
Tang Tianli and Wang Yunlong shook their heads together, "We searched the entire village, going from house to house, looking in cellars and warehouses, but we couldn't find the third lady or Miss Qin at all!"
Zhao Xuanyi sighed, "This time it's
Zhu Zhelin won and actually laid such a big trap for me! "
Zhu Wenyu shook his head with a disappointed look on his face. "Since Zhu Zhelin dares to play like this, it proves that it is not groundless. He must have someone in his hands, but he doesn't know who it is! Otherwise, how can he be sure that you will fall into the trap?"
After hearing this, Zhao Xuanyi nodded, "That's probably it. This time I was too anxious. I killed him immediately after getting the information. Someone should have investigated it first!"
"Brother, who gave you the information?"
"Is it...?" Zhao Xuanyi was stunned for a moment. Zhu Qing gave him the information. Zhao Xuanyi took a deep breath. Could it be that Zhu Qing and Zhao Xuanli conspired in this matter?
Zhao Xuanyi then gave up the idea. It shouldn't be. Zhu Qing's purpose was to hide the treasure map, and the same was true for Zhu Zhelin. Both of them were overlords of one party. It was impossible for them to divide the treasure equally, so it was impossible for them to join forces. Zhu Zhelin and King Yongle can be said to be his opponent!
"It's an acquaintance, she must have been deceived too!"
Zhu Wenyu nodded, "Yes, very few people can tell the difference between authenticity and authenticity at such a critical time! By the way, what happened to the fake drawings?"
"It will take two more days! After two days, we will be free!"
"That's good!" Zhu Wenyu nodded and said.
Zhu Zhelin returned to his home, the muscles on his face were as hard as stone, "You Zhu Wenyu, you actually help Zhao Xuanyi? I remember this today, just wait and see how I deal with you in the future!" "
Zhao Xuanli stood aside without saying a word. Zhu Zhelin turned to look at Zhao Xuanli, "Why don't you say a word?"
Zhao Xuanli looked innocent, "My lord, you also saw what happened today, but didn't you find anything wrong?"
"you mean……?"
"The prince and Zhao Xuanyi just had a quarrel a few days ago, and they even issued an imperial edict asking Zhao Xuanyi to return his military pay. It can be said that the two of them were at odds. But today when you attacked Zhao Xuanyi, the prince took all the blame on himself. Are there some contradictions in your body?" Zhao Xuanli said softly.
"Yes! It's true what you said! Could it be that these two are acting?" Zhu Zhelin asked.
"It's possible! What is their relationship? You can't turn against each other for just ten million taels!"
"Then... what's our next step? Why don't we make an appointment with Zhao Xuanyi again tomorrow and ask him to hand over the drawings?"
"My lord, now is not the time!"
"What do you mean by this?"
"Zhao Xuanyi is probably impatient at this moment. Now that you have suppressed him again, he must be very angry. If I put pressure on him now, I'm afraid things will turn upside down. Otherwise, it will be easy! If he is really cruel by then, Du Xinyu will no longer want it. , then we will lose more than we gain! Don’t forget, he has several women! A concubine... In my opinion, we should wait for two days, don’t act too hastily!"
Zhu Zhelin nodded when he heard Zhao Xuanli's words, "You are right, Zhao Xuanyi's character is too tough. If he is broken, it will probably not end well. The most important thing is that he will not be able to get the map! Alas... still You have to wait!"
Zhao Xuanli stood quietly aside without speaking!
A white pigeon flew in the night sky. After a period of free flight, it flew directly into the inn. Ye Zi reached out to take the pigeon over, took the note from its paws, and then threw the pigeon into the air and flew. gone!
When he opened the note and saw the words on it, Ye Zi's eyes widened in fright and he hurriedly ran into the room, "Miss, come and see, something happened!"
"What happened?" Zhu Qing took the note over, with a simple sentence written on it: "The news is wrong, there is no one in the village!" 】
After reading the note, Zhu Qing looked surprised, "How is this possible? We found it ourselves!"
Ye Zi looked at Zhu Qing and said, "Princess, do you think Zhao Xuanyi turned around and refused to admit his guilt?"
Zhu Qing shook his head, "Zhao Xuanyi has made it this far because he still has this trust. If he really rescues people, our men should come back and report, but at this moment...
There was no movement at all. Maybe there really was an error in our intelligence! "
"That blind man?" Ye Zi asked.
"Without evidence, he just said that a group of people went outside the capital that day, and he didn't say whether there were any kidnappers in the car. He didn't lie. It was us who acted too hastily!"
"Then what should we do now? Maybe the two kidnapped people never left the capital at all!"
Zhu Qing also guessed, "This is the most troublesome thing. Our people have no law enforcement power in the capital and cannot even conduct the simplest investigation. This is troublesome. If the other party threatens Zhao Xuanyi again, if he If we hand over the treasure map to save people, we will get nothing!"
"Then...what should we do, Princess?"
Zhu Qing waved his hand, "Don't worry, give me some time and let me think about it. Maybe we made some omissions!"
Seeing that Zhu Qing was so anxious, Ya didn't say anything more. Instead, he poured a cup of tea for Zhu Qing, and then stood quietly aside, not daring to disturb Zhu Qing.
After a quarter of an hour, Zhu Qing's eyes suddenly widened, "Yi Zi, do you remember what your father told you before we came here?"
Ye Zi thought carefully, "Don't spend money randomly outside!"
Zhu Qing patted Ye Zi on the head, "That's not it. It's winter now, and the emperor's birthday is coming soon!"
"What does this have to do with this matter?" Ye Zi asked confused.
