As Ji Gang approached the cell, he saw the disheveled Li Yunshan, who was on death row and looking at him eagerly.
It seems to be saying, come and save me.
The other three wardens and jailers seemed to have been executed, and they collapsed to the ground covered in blood.
Ji Gang was glad that he arrived in time.
Otherwise, nothing will end.
As a result, he had to take the blame for Zhu Gaoxu and was dealt with by Zhu Di.
Losing an official position is a small matter, but losing one's life is a big deal.
Ji Gang walked up to Xu Miaoyun, bowed his hands to the end without haste, and said loudly:
"Ji Gang, I'm here to see you, your Majesty! The superior has issued an order, please return to the palace as soon as possible and discuss important matters with us."
Xu Miaoyun was surprised after hearing this, "Ji Gang, how did you know that I am here and that I have a command from the superior?"
Ji Gang bowed his head and said coldly:
"I don't know what your Majesty is. The Ministry of Punishment is currently in charge of a small minister. I happened to be with the superior just now. I heard that your Majesty was in the prison, so I hurried over."
His vague words made Xu Miaoyun really confused.
However, Ji Gang is the commander of Jinyi Guards, so it is very easy to meet Zhu Di.
It was reasonable for Zhu Di to ask him to deliver oral instructions.
"Well, since the superiors have the decree, I will go back immediately. Ji Gang, I will leave this place to you. Interrogate him well and punish him severely." Xu Miaoyun ordered.
"I will only obey your Majesty's will."
Ji Gang bowed his hands in salute, lowered his head and was secretly proud.
Xu Miaoyun waved her hand and left the prison surrounded by guards.
Before Xu Qin mounted his horse, he looked at Ji Gang who was sent to the door of the prison.
Both sides were looking at each other.
They secretly competed with each other.
Xu Qin knew in his heart that the so-called manipulator behind the scenes would never be exposed.
Li Yunshan and the others will not survive tonight, and Ji Gang will definitely kill and silence them.
…
In the inner city of the emperor, Xinyue Palace.
At night, the palace lanterns are bright.
This was originally the residence of several direct princesses of Emperor Taizu Gao before they got married.
Now, it has become the temporary residence of Princess Yan.
Only after the new emperor ascends the throne and canonizes the title of empress, Xu Miaoyun can officially move to Kunning Palace.
The current renovation and decoration project of Kunning Palace is nearing completion. In ten and a half months, the new decoration will be ready to welcome the new mistress.
It is said that Xu Miaoyun hurriedly returned to the palace and heard from Zheng He, the chief chamberlain, that the superior was in Wuying Hall to meet with the ministers.
It is said that Master Yao is also there.
"Tell your superiors that I'm going back to Xinyue Palace to rest after a long day of traveling. If I have anything to do, I'll talk about it in the evening."
Xu Miaoyun did not spoil anyone, and Zhu Di was no exception.
"My queen, please go back and rest first. When the superior is finished, the slave will just play."
Zheng He cupped his hands and said.
Xu Miaoyun nodded and returned to Xinyue Palace.
She was very familiar with the Nanjing Imperial Palace. From the age of 12 to 18, she often served Queen Ma for six years.
She is most familiar with Xinyue Palace. She lives here and plays with Princess Yongle and Yongan when she usually stays in the palace.
As soon as he returned to Xinyue Palace, Xu Miaoyun's spirit relaxed and he felt sleepy.
After letting the maids take care of her, she took a bath and fell asleep on the bed.
I slept so soundly that I didn't wake up for most of the day.
When she woke up, it was dark and the palace was all lit up.
"Empress, His Highness is already here. He is waiting for you to have dinner with you at Shulan Hall." Female officer Shi Dongmei said softly.
"What, Your Highness is here?!"
Xu Miaoyun was startled and scolded:
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
"No... His Highness refused. He said that the queen should sleep a little longer." Shi Dongmei explained quickly.
After hearing this, Xu Miaoyun smiled knowingly, feeling warm in her heart.
"Change my clothes quickly, hurry up." She said urgently.
"yes."
Her two personal maids, Xiaoyun and Cuiyu, both came from Prince Yan's Mansion in Peiping, and they were easy to use.
Let’s talk about Zhu Di.
He was very busy these days.
The enthronement ceremony is no small matter, because in the eyes of the world, he is a shameless usurper.
Therefore, he had to consider all aspects carefully and try his best to block the public opinion of the people in the world.
Especially the scholars and officials all over the world.
During the ancestor worship ceremony on the first day of July, Fang Xiaoru and others kept insulting him, which made him furious and irrational.
He ignored Yao Guangxiao's warning and went on a killing spree.
Just for Fang Xiaoru, he killed ten of his clans.
It is truly unprecedented, unprecedented and unprecedented.
The anger was released, but the consequences were serious.
As a result, not only did Yao Guangxiao become very dissatisfied, but he also offended scholars all over the world.
Today, Princess Xu Miaoyun returned to Yingtian, but unexpectedly made a saucy move, which made him even more numb when he was already trapped in the whirlpool of public opinion.
As soon as the meeting at Wuying Palace was over, he hurried to Xinyue Palace, but he did not expect that the princess was sleeping.
He had no choice but to close his eyes and rest in Shulan Hall.
"Your Highness, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
A crisp greeting sounded in my ears.
Zhu Di opened his eyes and saw a lady in a red silk dress looking at him affectionately.
"Oh, it's Princess, you woke up."
Zhu Di screamed, stood up, held Xu Miaoyun's slender jade hand, and said: "Princess, you have lost weight."
Xu Miaoyun is the white moonlight in Zhu Di's mind, a woman with a prosperous husband.
They have been husband and wife for twenty-five years, and their love is deep. They are rarely separated for more than a year.
It was Zhu Di who fought in northern Xinjiang, which usually lasted for several months or half a year.
But in these four years of peace, their days together were numbered.
Since Zhu Di defeated Li Jinglong in the Battle of Peking, meeting today was the first time the couple had reunited.
It’s been a year and a half.
"Husband, you have also lost a lot of weight and have gray hair."
Xu Miaoyun reached out and touched his cheek and forehead, her eyes flushed.
"It's okay. After the enthronement ceremony on the 17th, everything will fall into place."
Zhu Di still squeezed her hand and refused to let go, "Come... let's talk first. We have some free time before taking the meal."
"Okay, husband, please sit down."
The two sat on the double couch in the palace, and the maid brought them tea and snacks.
"Men, let's have a piece of Jiangnan glutinous rice cake. It's hard for us to eat authentic Jiangnan food in Peiping."
As she spoke, she stretched out her bare hands to pick up a piece and fed it into Zhu Di's mouth.
Zhu Di opened his big mouth and ate the glutinous rice cake alive, showing a silly happy expression while chewing.
He was accustomed to Xu Miaoyun's meticulous approach to life.
In the years before Jingnan arrived, the family in Prince Yan's Mansion in Beiping was harmonious, close, and peaceful.
Xu Miaoyun likes to cook by herself and prepare dishes for her family.
Among them, one of her unique skills is 'roast goose'.
This unique skill of roasting goose was taught by Empress Ma herself.
Not only did Xu Da like to eat it, but Zhu Di and his children also liked it too.
"Tell me, you crossed the river from Jiangbei early this morning. After entering the city, you went directly to Xu Mansion. Did you meet your stubborn donkey brother? How about it?"
After the greetings between the husband and wife were over, Zhu Di started to talk about serious things without leaving his profession.
