My uncle is Zhu Di

Chapter 80 Audacious
When Xu Qin returned to the mansion, he went straight to his father's living room. The machines for the weaving bureau had already been delivered. Now Xu Huizu was not so busy, he just needed to settle the accounts every day.

As for repairing machines, Xu Huizu has trained several people and asked them to do the repairs.

Xu Huizu saw Xu Qin coming back and asked with a smile, "Can you treat him?"

"Yes, Dad, I have something to tell you." Xu Qin walked to Xu Huizu, bowed first, and then sat next to Xu Huizu.

When Xu Huizu saw Xu Qin like this, he knew it must be an important matter, so Xu Qin began to tell Xu Huizu what Liang had said.

Xu Huizu stood up in surprise, and walked back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back. After thinking for a while, he immediately opened the door and said to the outside: "Send someone to the Dingguo Mansion immediately to ask the old lady of the Dingguo Duke to come over. Go and come back quickly!"

"Yes!" The servant outside responded, and Xu Huizu closed the door of the study.

"Dad, do you think this incident is targeting my aunt? Only if something happens to my aunt, will His Majesty have a chance to deal with me. Or are they planning to assassinate me? If they want to assassinate me, I can be more careful. At most, I will go out less and bring more guards with me during this period. But if someone is trying to harm my aunt, what should I do?" Xu Qin stood up and asked Xu Huizu.

"Talk to your fourth aunt later and ask her to go to the palace and talk to your aunt, reminding her that everyone in the palace has started to cooperate. It is very likely that they are targeting your eldest aunt. It is probably because you have dealt with so many eunuchs in the weaving bureau and damaged the interests of the eunuchs, female officials, and even the concubines in the palace. That is why they want to secretly murder your aunt. You have to be on guard against this." Xu Huizu also said with a frown.

"If I am going to be unlucky, the prerequisite is that my aunt falls down. Therefore, I am still worried about my aunt! Only if my aunt is harmed by them will they have a chance to kill me. In the palace, there are many eunuchs who have no relatives, and some of them may be dead warriors." Xu Qin nodded and said worriedly.

"Well, let's wait until your fourth aunt comes. We must be prepared for this." Xu Huizu sighed.

Xu Huizu did not dare to think about what would happen to his family if Empress Xu was murdered. First of all, Zhu Di would never tolerate him living for too long. If his family slightly displeased Zhu Di, his property would be confiscated.

It is even said that if Zhu Di still cared about their old friendship, he would give himself a decent death, with white silk or poisoned wine.

If they had not taken their old friendship into consideration and had just sent someone to kill him with a knife, Xu Qin would probably have been sent back to his hometown, and the eldest branch of the Xu family would have disappeared from sight ever since.

Soon, Fourth Aunt came over. After hearing what Xu Qin said, she was shocked. Xu Huizu also confessed some things. Fourth Aunt Mu rushed to the palace and asked to see Empress Xu.

After Zhu Di received the news, he was stunned for a moment. It was almost evening, and Mu still came to the palace to ask to see the queen. It must be some urgent matter.

When Empress Xu learned that Mu was coming, she was also surprised and immediately ordered Mu to come to Kunning Palace.

When Mu arrived at the warm room of Kunning Palace, she asked Empress Xu to send the attendants away. Empress Xu trusted her brother and sister-in-law, so even though this request was very unreasonable, she still sent the attendants away. Mu then told Empress Xu the news that Xu Qin had received.

After hearing this, Empress Xu frowned and asked, "Bao'er said that someone in the palace was involved?"

"Yes, otherwise Baoer would not have thought that someone was plotting to murder the Queen. Everyone knows that if they want to kill Baoer, they can't get past you, the Queen." Mu nodded and said honestly.

"Well, OK, I got it. I will send someone to investigate. Go back and tell Bao'er not to move around and go out less during this period. If it really doesn't work, don't go out. Investigate it first." Empress Xu frowned and said, who gave them the courage to murder herself and Shakya Bao? People in the palace were involved, so bold.

Those slaves really don't know their own weight. I have been seriously ill in recent years and did nothing to punish them, so they started to act arrogantly.

Then Empress Xu chatted with Mu for a while, and then Empress Xu asked Mu to go back without keeping her for dinner, as it was too late and she also needed to arrange some things.

After Mu left, Empress Xu sat there analyzing who it could be. The eunuchs and palace maids in the palace could be anyone. It was actually very easy to check. It could be the godfathers of the eunuchs who were killed by Xu Qin. Just check them one by one. But this time it was not only those in the palace, but also those outside the palace. Empress Xu also had an idea about those outside the palace.

The only people who have the courage to do this can be counted on two hands, and they are the princesses and the Duke of Qi.

"You are so brave! It seems that if I don't kill some people, others will ignore my existence." Empress Xu said coldly. If Zhu Di were here, he would immediately know that his queen was starting to plot against people.

At night, Zhu Di still went to the greenhouse and sent away the attendants. When the two of them were together, he liked to send away the attendants and did not like to have outsiders around.

"Why did Mu come here today? You came so late. Did something important happen at home?" Zhu Di leaned on the couch and asked Empress Xu who was looking at the account book.

Empress Xu put down the account book, thought about it, and told Zhu Di everything that Mu had said.

Zhu Di sat up in shock, staring at Empress Xu with his teeth gritted, his eyes murderous, and asked, "Who has the guts to do this?" Empress Xu smiled and began to analyze the situation for Zhu Di. Zhu Di also slowly calmed down, and after a while, he said, "No, I'll ask the Jinyiwei to find Liang and ask clearly."

"You are not allowed to go, so as not to alert the enemy. If you arrest those people now, firstly, there is no evidence, and secondly, if the punishment is too severe, people will say that Your Majesty is cruel and merciless and does not tolerate relatives.

Besides, Liang probably doesn't know much, and she's not sure whether to deal with me or Sakyabao. I've already made arrangements, loose on the outside and tight on the inside. I've also asked Mu to take charge of Sakyabao. "Empress Xu sat there, shaking her head.

Zhu Di stared at Empress Xu.

Empress Xu said calmly again: "I have been lying in bed for more than three years. The eunuchs and maids in the palace have probably become wild and daring. If we don't take this opportunity to kill a group of them, the palace will be in chaos. Perhaps what happened in the palace will be spread to Nanjing in a blink of an eye.

After all, the eldest daughter-in-law is my daughter-in-law. Although I asked her to manage the harem before, if she really encounters someone with a bit of background, she may not dare to punish him severely. This matter has to be handled by me. I can also take this opportunity to teach her how to manage all kinds of people in the palace. "

Zhu Di was still a little worried. He didn't want anything unexpected to happen to Empress Xu.

Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di with a smile and said, "Don't worry, ordinary people really can't get close to me."

Zhu Di thought about it, nodded and said, "I will also send people to investigate. If they make any unusual moves, kill them first."

Empress Xu did not refute Zhu Di's words, knowing that was Zhu Di's character.

The next day, Xu Qin continued to go to the Chengguo Mansion to treat Zhu Jinxi. As soon as he arrived at the front yard, Liang and Zhu Yong came to greet him happily. They came in front of Xu Qin and saluted first. Xu Qin quickly returned the salute and said, "I dare not accept the gift."

Zhu Yong held Xu Qin's hand and said, "As she should. My sister stopped coughing last night and is obviously getting better. This morning, she ate two bowls of porridge and her face has turned a little red."

Xu Qin nodded and said, "That's good, that's good, but you need seven injections."

Liang nodded and said with a smile: "I know, the Queen Mother told me, come on, please, it's cold outside, have lunch at my house at noon, you can chat with my eldest son, it's not convenient for my eldest son to go out for a visit."

Zhu Yong also said quickly: "Yes, I have already given the order. You can have lunch at my house at noon. Don't refuse. Let's go in and talk!"

Xu Qin had no choice but to agree.

Accompanied by Liang, Xu Qin went to Zhu Jinxi's bedroom. At this time, Zhu Jinxi was already sitting there reading a book. When she saw Xu Qin coming in, her snow-white face turned slightly red. She quickly stood up and saluted Xu Qin: "Thank you, Mr. Xu, for rescuing me!"

"You're welcome. It's your brother who has been begging for you, and your brother and I have a good relationship." Xu Qin smiled and waved his hand. He found that Zhu Jinxi was very tall, probably over 1.65 meters, and had a very good figure. Although she was wearing thick clothes, her body curves could still be seen, and her face was also very beautiful and elegant.

Xu Qin didn't think much about it. After all, he had been in the 21st century, an era of advanced Internet, for decades. What kind of beauties had he not seen online? Especially with the advent of beauty enhancement tools, there were countless beauties online, although seeing them in real life might be a surprise.

Xu Qin put down the medicine box and began to prepare for the treatment.

Zhu Jinxi blushed all the time. After all, she had to let Xu Qin see her most private parts and give her an injection.

After Xu Qin gave Zhu Jinxi acupuncture, he left Zhu Jinxi's courtyard and came to the front yard to sit in a room with Zhu Yong and chat about everything.

In the next few days, Xu Qin went to give Zhu Jinxi acupuncture, and Liang was always with him. After seven days of treatment, Zhu Jinxi was basically recovered.

But Xu Qin had always suspected that Liang had heard it wrong. Why had there been no movement after seven days? Why hadn't those who wanted to kill him shown up?
People outside already know that I have been treating Zhu Yong's sister and that they come to Duke Cheng's Mansion every day. If they want to assassinate me, this is a good opportunity. How could those people let it go?

The only point is that the target of that group of people is not himself, but the queen in the palace. Liang said that people in the palace will also report it. Xu Qin is very worried and doesn't know whether his aunt has found out.
