Zhu Shouhong breathed a sigh of relief quietly. Sure enough, he had underestimated Prince Ping before, and he said without moving his face, "I will obey the prince's orders. How long will it take?"

King Ping shook his body and said hesitantly, "One hour should be enough."

King Lu nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll catch up with King Jin."

King Ping hummed, and said to the outside: "Chen Yun, let the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate go to that village, the people from the Ministry of Punishment go to arrest the guards of the palace who beat people and kill people, and the people from Dali Temple follow me into the Taiyuan government office."

Chen Yun hurriedly said, "It's the prince."

Zhu Shouhong became more and more vigilant, this King Ping is really not easy.

Jin Wangfu.

"What did you say, King Ping arrived early and avoided our eyes and ears?"

Zhu Qiugui ran out of the desk, his expression changed in shock.

The old eunuch Li also felt that something was wrong, and said: "Yes, it is said that they are divided into three groups. The people from the Ministry of Punishment went to arrest the guards of the palace who beat people and killed people. gone."

Zhu Qiugui noodles sank like water, things were unexpected, the court made such a big commotion this time, King Ping brought an unprecedented lineup, and his movements were as fierce as the wind, as if he wanted to thoroughly investigate and put Jin Wang's mansion to death.

The old eunuch became nervous, looked at Zhu Qiugui and said, "My lord, the situation is urgent, we must act first."

Zhu Qiugui glanced at him, nodded and said: "Well, this king is going to see King Ping now. You have closed the palace tightly, and no one is allowed to go out. Tell those bastards, at this time, stay quietly. Whoever makes trouble , Whose leg will I break!"

The old eunuch bowed and said, "My lord, just go, and the other old slaves will take care of it."

Zhu Qiugui took a deep breath and stepped out.

"My lord, my lord, King Lu is here."

Just as Zhu Qiugui took a few steps, a servant ran over quickly and said out of breath.

The old eunuch's expression changed, and he immediately frowned.

Zhu Qiugui's eyes flickered, and he said to himself, "Why is he here? Could it be..."

The old eunuch looked solemnly and said: "Without a will, King Lu would not dare to leave Yanzhou. I'm afraid that they came together and did not hide it from us."

Zhu Qiugui's face became more and more ugly. King Lu came to block the door, but King Ping couldn't see him now and wanted to see other people.

The old eunuch said: "My lord, go out through the back door, now we have to race against time, we can't miss anything."

Zhu Qiugui was silent for a while, shook his head and let out a long sigh, and said, "It's too late, I underestimated this King Ping."

As soon as Zhu Qiugui finished speaking, a guard of the palace came over and said in a deep voice, "My lord, there are unknown people around the palace, they seem to be servants of the Taiyuan Palace."

The old eunuch was mature, and said thoughtfully: "Huang Chengyuan doesn't have the guts, I'm afraid someone will support him behind."

"People from the East Factory."

Zhu Qiugui's face was no longer as calm as before, and he said indifferently: "This king should have thought about it a long time ago. It is impossible for Dongchang to do nothing about such a big movement, I'm afraid it can't be hidden."

"My lord, the young master was arrested by the Ministry of Punishment, along with those few guards."

"My lord, those villagers are making a fuss again. Huang Chengyuan has personally come forward and is recording a statement..."

"My lord, it's not good, the Yingyang army has entered the city..."

Zhu Qiugui didn't know why, but he relaxed, and a stern look appeared on his face.

The old eunuch had followed Zhu Qiugui for decades, knew him very well, his eyes changed slightly, and he said, "My lord, what do you want?"

Zhu Qiugui straightened his neck, straightened his clothes, and said: "This king is the prince of the court, not to mention that his subordinates made mistakes, even if it is a trial, the most is to cut the prince. I want to see what the king of Xin can do to me. Do it, if it’s too light, I can’t explain it, but if it’s too serious, the clan will be unstable! Let’s go see King Lu!”

The old eunuch felt cold, knowing that King Jin was going to smash the jar.

However, this is the best way right now!

Zhu Qiugui came out of the study and came to the lobby, looking at Zhu Shouhong in casual clothes, he smiled and said, "King Lu, why are you free to come to my little place?"

Zhu Shouhong turned his head to look at him, smiled faintly, and said, "If Taiyuan is a small place, I won't be able to stay in Yanzhou."

Zhu Qiugui didn't bother about it, he waved his hands and said, "Come here, let's serve tea, King Lu, let's take a seat."

They are both thousand-year-old foxes, the two of them tacitly agreed, and sat down with the guests while smiling.

Zhu Qiugui took a sip of tea and looked at Zhu Shouhong: "King Lu, are you here to be a lobbyist for King Ping?"

Zhu Shouhong shook his head and said, "King Ping said, let me stop you for an hour so he can do something."

Zhu Qiugui narrowed his eyes, looked at Zhu Shouhong, and said meaningfully: "King Lu, your case is not easy to settle, is it?"

Zhu Shouhong said with a smile that I just came here for granted and didn't care about anything else, just reminiscing about the old days, "It's not easy. There are only [-] acres of farmland left, and several sons have been deprived of their titles, and their annual salary has also been cut by more than half."

Zhu Qiugui gradually became indifferent, and said, "You just endured like this?"

Zhu Shouhong laughed amusedly, and said: "So what if you can't bear it, tear your face? At that time, Wei Zhongxian brought poisoned wine to go. If I don't agree, I'm afraid that my Lu Palace will not exist."

Zhu Qiugui looked at Zhu Shouhong for a long time, then suddenly laughed, and said, "You really are a lobbyist."

Zhu Shouhong picked up the teacup and said, "Whatever you think, King Ping is not a simple person, and he will be able to find out in less than half an hour. When the time comes, the Yingyang army will surround your Prince Jin's mansion, and the only thing to see is whether King Ping is there or not." With the intention of abolishing Duke Jin."

Zhu Qiugui stopped smiling, holding a teacup in his hand, his face was changing.

Chapter 281 Pressure

Taiyuan government office, lobby.

King Ping sat on the main seat, with a majestic expression, and looked down indifferently.

In the lobby stood Cao Qincheng, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Huang Chengyuan, the Governor of Taiyuan, as well as government servants and a group of villagers.

"My lord, my lords, the Jin Palace is not a human being, not only seized our people's land, but also slaughtered the village, my lord, you have to decide for us..."

"My lord, please save my life, if this continues, we will starve to death..."

"Prince Jin's Mansion really forced us to have no way out..."

"When I'm penniless and can't go home again, I'm going to starve to death..."

A group of villagers cried loudly, and Li Qiyuan and others from the Metropolitan Procuratorate also came in, raised their hands and said angrily: "My lord, the Prince Jin's mansion actually sent people into the village in a frenzy, trying to silence them, and wounded our guards. There is no kingly law, and I hope to be severely punished!"

People from the Ministry of Punishment also ran in immediately, and said anxiously: "My lord, the people in Jinwang's mansion didn't take care of them, they were scattered by a group of local hooligans, and they ran away!"

King Ping sat there, very calm from the beginning to the end, watching a group of people coming in and out, until no one spoke, and then said: "Well, this king knows, that, Cao Qincheng, Huang Chengyuan, you give this king a good evidence Testimony, Eunuch Chen, you go to Prince Jin's mansion yourself, and invite Prince Jin to come to the yamen."

The three of them agreed separately and went their own way.
