Domineering Daming

"The king told him that he promised to take you as a concubine in the next year." Zhu Xu sat still, but said quickly.

Yao Qingqing was stunned for a moment, covered her mouth abruptly, almost shed tears, knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your success, concubine!"

Zhu Xu waved his hand without changing his expression, and said, "You're welcome, it's all agreed at the beginning."

Yao Qingqing was a little out of control, and bowed again: "The concubine is still very grateful to Your Highness, and the concubine resigns."

Yao Qingqing covered her mouth and ran out, crying faintly.

Zhu Xu looked at his back, laughed softly, and then sighed: "It's great that lovers get married at last, tsk tsk..."

Feeling so emotional, her thoughts drifted to Qin Huai Bayan unconsciously.Each one is very emotional and sexual, but there is no good result.

A few days later, in Kunning Palace, Zhu Youxiao hosted a banquet for Zhu Xu and Xinwang Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youxiao sat in the main seat, accompanied by Queen Zhang, and Zhu Xu and Zhu Youjian sat on both sides.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Xu and the two of them, and said with a smile: "Our brothers all live in this palace, but this is the first time we have dinner together like this?"

Zhu Xu pretended to be an honest and polite child, sitting there upright, looking at his nose and heart.

Zhu Youjian glanced at Zhu Xu, and said, "Brother Huang said that you should move around more in the future."

Empress Zhang kicked Zhu Xu quietly under the table, Zhu Xu turned to look at her, and then at Zhu Youjian.

I don't know if it's because of his heart, but he always feels that this Fifth Brother is becoming more and more mean, the corners of his face, lips, eyes, and even his hair look mean.

Zhu Xu also knew that Zhu Youxiao was watching him, waiting for him to speak, so he said flatly: "What Brother Wuhuang said is true, but it's not good to be too close."

Empress Zhang heard the taste from Zhu Xu's words, and glanced at Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian's face turned cold. After all, he was fifteen or sixteen years old. He frowned and responded calmly: "Sixth brother, you are still young, and we are all afraid that you will go astray."

But Zhu Youxiao picked up the chopsticks, waved them between the two, and said with a smile: "Okay, we are all my brothers. Today we will have dinner and talk about homework."

Zhu Xu nodded, but he became more and more vigilant in his heart. This Fifth Brother might really be eyeing him.But at the same time, he also wondered, Zhu Youxiao, what kind of attitude is this? Is this messing up the water and helping him out?

Zhu Youjian didn't say much, and bowed slightly to Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Xu pretended to be a good baby, Zhu Youjian was reticent, Zhu Youxiao was at the dinner table, and Queen Zhang and his wife were talking to each other.

After drinking and eating, Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhu Xu and Zhu Youjian and said: "Annan was repelled not long ago, and there will be a peace mission coming to Beijing. I want you, fifth brother, to receive him." , I have already issued a decree at Honglu Temple."

Zhu Youjian naturally understood Zhu Youxiao's purpose immediately, stood up and said, "Your brother leads the order."

Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly, then looked at Zhu Xu and said, "North Korea, there will also be a mission to pay tribute next month. Sixth Brother, you go and receive it."

Zhu Xu was startled, but he didn't expect that he also had an errand, so he had to follow suit, raised his hand and bowed and said, "Your brother accepts the order."

Chapter 131 Xiong Tingbi in Prison

Zhu Xu came out of Qianqing Palace, thinking about receiving the North Korean mission while walking.

Daming's current vassal state, North Korea is the only one left. This loyal younger brother is probably here for the sake of the later Jin.However, he immediately thought of Mao Wenlong, who would be like an emperor in North Korea in the future, but unfortunately he was killed by Yuan Chonghuan.

"Where's Lao Cao?" Zhu Xu asked suddenly with his hands behind his back.

Cao Huachun followed Zhu Xu, and said, "Return to Your Highness, Commander Cao has just left the palace for something."

Zhu Xu nodded, and said: "You send someone to inform Honglu Temple, and say that the king will go to see it in a few days, so that they are ready to receive the North Korean mission."

"It's Your Highness." Cao Huachun said.

After talking, the two walked towards Jing Huan Palace.

At this moment, in a private room of a restaurant outside the palace, a young man knelt down to Cao Wenzhao with an excited expression.

"General Cao, please save my father no matter what!" the young man said urgently.

Cao Wenzhao quickly wanted to help him up, and said: "Please stand up, Major General, if you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk."

The young man was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he stood up and said impatiently: "General Cao, you have the right to speak out. If you don't hand over 4 taels of silver, you will execute my father immediately."

Cao Wenzhao helped him to sit down on the stool, but his expression became solemn.

This young man's name is Xiong Guangyuan, he is the former Liaodong governor, Cao Wenzhao has been following him in the war before, if Zhu Xu hadn't forced him to leave earlier, there might be one more person in prison.

Xiong Tingbi's disagreement with Wang Huazhen eventually led to Guangning's defeat.This is why the two of them were arrested and convicted. The two were sentenced to death last year.But there was a huge controversy in the court, and Xiong Tingbi communicated with Wang Wenyan, bribed the servants, and the servants promoted it together, so it has not been implemented.

But now the court has changed drastically, Xiong Tingbi is a member of the Chu Party, and the Chu Party has been expelled from the court. Although he has a good relationship with the Donglin Party, it is the limit to keep him alive. It is extremely difficult to save him. What's more, the one who is pushing to kill him now is the servant who did not get the 4 taels of silver, and it is likely to be Wei Zhongxian's party.

Cao Wenzhao remained silent. Wei Zhongxian was a man whom even his master, His Royal Highness Hui Wang, was quite jealous of. Can he save someone from Wei Zhongxian?

"Perhaps, it depends on His Highness's will." Cao Wenzhao knew his own weight, and thought deeply.

After all, Cao Wenzhao had followed Xiong Tingbi for many years. Now that his son came to the door, he couldn't just sit idly by. After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, "Who told you to come to me?"

Cao Wenzhao had to worry, although His Royal Highness Prince Hui had done a great thing, he was still a powerless little prince after all, so how could he ask for it?

Xiong Guangyuan was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said: "My nephew doesn't know, he told me when he went to visit my father the day before yesterday."

Cao Wenzhao didn't dare to be careless, and said: "Okay, let's go, come with me to see Jinglue."

When Xiong Guangyuan heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Yes, my nephew will take you right away."

The two soon arrived at the Prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and they didn't stop them much, they stuffed some money and went in.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Xiong Tingbi, who was dressed in prison clothes and with disheveled hair, but still couldn't hide his ruggedness, bowed and said: "The last general, Cao Wenzhao, pay homage to Mr. Xiong."

"Wen Zhao?" Xiong Tingbi, who was sitting on the stone bed, saw him, walked over to look at him, and said in a rough voice, "It's really you?"

Cao Wenzhao also took a step closer, looked at Xiong Tingbi and said, "My lord is me, my lord, how have you been lately?"

Xiong Tingbi was not tortured, he straightened his hair, and sighed: "I didn't expect that you were willing to come and meet. There are countless old genus in Liaodong, and you are the first one."

Xiong Tingbi was sentenced to death, no one wanted to have anything to do with him, and who would come to see him at this time.

Cao Wenzhao also knew that he couldn't wait any longer. He glanced around, approached the subject and said in a low voice, "My lord, I will find a way to rescue you. Tell me first, who asked you to find me?"

Xiong Tingbi was stunned for a moment, then glanced around, and said in a low voice, "It's Sun Shangshu."

"Sun Shangshu?" Cao Wenzhao murmured, and quickly asked again: "Shangshu of the Ministry of War Sun Chengzong Sun adults?"

Xiong Tingbi nodded.

Cao Wenzhao understood it, and said, "Okay, my lord, please wait for a few days, and I'll go for a walk."

Xiong Tingbi didn't want to die, so he heard the words: "Okay, no matter whether it is successful or not, let me be informed."
