"Your Majesty, I want to visit Qufu."

Lu Zhen, who couldn't wait any longer, stood up and proposed the idea of ​​visiting Qufu.

He wasn't interested in the plague removal conference or anything else, he just wanted to see with his own eyes if the Kong family really suffered from the plague.

Zhu Di didn't agree immediately, but first took a look at Zhu Zhangui, and asked if Zhu Zhangui was ready, and would he be seen as a liar?

Zhu Zhangui shook his head slightly, and said to Lu Zhen: "Lu Shangshu, you have to think about it, now Qufu is the most dangerous place in Shandong, and you may be infected by the plague if you are not careful. That would be a great loss to the court."

Lu Zhen shook his head resolutely, "His Royal Highness, you don't need to persuade me, I have already made up my mind to go, and I can't let go of my heart if I don't see it with my own eyes."

Zhu Zhangui raised his eyebrows.

Others call me Taisun, but you call me Huangsun.

Well, good words are hard to persuade, damn ghost!

If you want to die, go for it.

"Okay, since you insist on going, then my grandson will not stop you, but I would like to advise you, if you want to see it, you can watch it on the well fence. If you want to go in, you can't come out until the plague is over. gone."

Lu Zhen's neck stiffened, and he said without fear, "If you can die at the feet of a saint, why should you be afraid of death?"

After finishing speaking, he saluted Zhu Di and strode out the door.

"Hmph, this old man returned the Minister of Rites, and he left without the emperor's permission. He doesn't understand manners at all. Your majesty, please punish this old man for his disrespect."

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu quickly stood up and sued the old man.

He could be considered to have found a chance to take revenge. This old man used to impeach him, but today he finally impeached him for the first time.

Zhu Di waved his hand indifferently.

He is in a good mood today, there is no need to care about a dying person.

"Okay, you all retreat!"

Zhu Gaoxu was taken aback when he heard the words, looked up at Zhu Zhangui, and with a grin on his lips, he left unhappily.

When the old man's grandson is not around, he still looks like a son.

As long as the grandson is around, I, as a son, will fall out of favor, which is really annoying.

After the people left, Zhu Zhangui stepped forward to help the old man take off his boots, and began to massage his legs and feet.

"Is the tail closed?"

Tasting the tea and enjoying the filial grandson of his grandson, he suddenly asked a question without beginning or end.

Others may not understand what this is asking.

But Zhu Zhangui was very clear in his heart.

The old man is asking the people who deal with the affairs of the Kong family whether they have cleaned up.

After all, this matter is really too big, once there is even the slightest rumor, Zhu Zhangui's life will be over.

The civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty would never allow a guy whose hands were stained with the blood of a saint's descendants to ascend to the throne.

"It's clean, no one in this world knows about it except you and me."

The knights who escorted the man took poison and killed themselves after returning.

Zhu Zhangui didn't ask them to do this, but these people still chose to do so.

They know that this matter is too big, and they can't guarantee whether this matter will leak out one day when they are drunk or sleeping.

Once this matter is leaked, not only Zhu Zhangui will be unlucky, but they and their nine clans will also be killed by those angry civil servants.

So, in order to protect your family, completely cover up this secret.

They chose to take poison and commit suicide, completely erasing this matter from this world.

Their only request before they died was that Zhu Zhangui would treat their families kindly for the sake of repaying them with death.

That night, Zhu Zhangui experienced absolute loyalty for the first time.

The old man patted Zhu Zhangui on the shoulder, looked at Zhu Zhangui who fell into silence and said: "Treat their families well, they died for us, so we can't treat their families badly, if things are chilling, in the future No one is willing to sacrifice their lives for our men."

In the afternoon of the same day, a plague eradication conference was held in Jinan City.

The common people and victims danced strange dances, worshiped the statue of the plague god, and offered countless sacrifices, so that the plague god left as soon as he was full.

At the end of the ceremony, Zhu Di even appeared in person, beheaded the statue of Hanba with a long knife in his hand, and suppressed Hanba with the body of a real dragon.

Hanba's head fell to the ground with a cold light.

All the officials and people in the city fell to their knees and shouted long live to Zhu Di three times.

Chapter 119: The brave second uncle swung a knife at the old man.

The next day, on the way to Qufu.

Hundreds of cavalry guarded the two of them, and rushed to Qufu quickly.

When they arrived at a rest point, Zhu Zhangui said to Zhu Di who was drinking water and observing the surrounding disaster with a bitter face, "Grandpa, you are cheating on me! If my father knows that I took you to Qufu , he must kill me."

Zhu Di snorted lightly, and said calmly: "Your father, this is how it is in this life, every day I am afraid of this and that. People live their whole life, for what? Isn't it for the comfort of the heart?"

"Those who worry about this and that every day can't survive."

Zhu Zhangui was speechless.

Didn't you scare my father into that?

Not wanting to listen to Zhu Zhangui's nagging anymore, Zhu Di threw the kettle to Zhu Zhangui, got up and said, "The Saint's family has suffered so much, it's a bit unreasonable for me, the emperor, not to go and see it."

"Besides, I don't come close, I just take a look at it from a distance, and I will leave after I have seen it."

Well, Zhu Zhangui understood it.

Don't look at what the old man said so beautifully, in fact, his real purpose is to watch the Kong family die with his own eyes!

The team set off again and galloped all the way to Qufu.

Don't run faster.

The old man didn't say hello to Zhu Gaoxu and other accompanying officials when he came out. It is estimated that the old man has been found out there.

In this place in Shandong, if the old man is not here, where else can he go?

It must have gone to Qufu.

So Zhu Zhangui guessed in his heart that the second uncle probably led people to chase here frantically.

The old man probably understood this, so he rushed to Qufu at a faster speed.

The distance of hundreds of kilometers can be reached in an hour if there are modern highways.

But in the era of Daming, a group of people drove for a whole morning, and the horses were almost too tired to spit before they reached the checkpoint on the edge of Qufu.

The plague occurred here in Qufu, in order to prevent it from spreading outside.

Zhu Zhangui set up checkpoints at all checkpoint intersections and places where people can go out. Without his warrant, no one is allowed to enter or leave.

"The last general will meet the emperor and see His Highness!"

The officer on duty, who had received the news a long time ago, hurried up to greet him, and respectfully bowed down.

The old man nodded slightly, turned over and got off the horse, and said to the officer, "Is the horse ready?"

Although the horses that the group rode were all high-quality horses, the horses couldn't take it anymore after running all morning. If they didn't take a good rest, they would be useless if they ran again.

In addition, the horses come from outside and have not been sterilized, so these horses cannot be allowed to enter.

"It's ready to return to the emperor."

The officer replied, glanced at the team of hundreds of people, and said with a look of embarrassment on his face: "But we don't have too many horses here, and the general only prepared more than 20 horses."

Zhu Di waved his hand indifferently.

"20 horses are enough!"

While the old man was communicating with the officer, Zhu Zhangui was busy putting on protective clothing for the old man.

The protective clothing is made of leather, and the connections are sealed with isinglass, so there is no problem when the balloon is blown.

"Your Majesty, someone is chasing after you."

Just when Zhu Zhangui was about to put on a mask for the old man, a knight galloped over.

As soon as the old man heard it, he knew that it was Zhu Gaoxu and others who were chasing him. Seeing that he had arrived at the place and was pulled back again, he was definitely unwilling in his heart, so he urged Zhu Zhangui repeatedly.

"Hurry up, kid, your second uncle is about to catch up."

"alright, alright!"

Help the old man fasten the mask. As soon as Zhu Zhangui said something, the old man hurried to the horse, turned on the horse neatly, and ran inside alone without waiting for the guards.

"Zhu Zhangui, you little bastard, you dare to bring your grandfather here. If I don't beat you to death today, you will be my second uncle."

There was an angry shout in the distance.

"Stop him, make him wear protective clothing, and if he doesn't wear it, tell him how dangerous it is."

Zhu Zhangui was so frightened that he hurriedly told the officer. Regardless of the unfastened protective clothing, he picked up a mask and got on the horse to chase the old man.

Zhu Zhangui and the old man didn't run very far, when Zhu Gaoxu rushed over on a fast horse with an angry expression on his face.

"Hanwang Highness, stop quickly, stop quickly!"

Seeing that King Han didn't intend to stop, the officer hurriedly led someone to stand in the middle of the road and shouted for Zhu Gaoxu to stop.

"Go away!"

How could Zhu Gaoxu listen to these people, he was about to rush forward without stopping.

"Hanwang Highness, if you go in like this, you will be infected with the plague."

Seeing that he could not stop him, the officer yelled at the top of his voice.

"Shut up!"

The horse stopped in front of the officer, and Zhu Gaoxu jumped off the horse and grabbed the officer.

"Hurry up and eliminate the plague!"

The officer pointed helplessly at the checkpoint room.

"Your Highness Han enters here, it is useless to eliminate the plague, you must wear protective clothing!"

Zhu Gaoxu kicked up.

"Then what the hell are you still doing here? Why don't you hurry up and get it."

"Ai ai ai, this subordinate will go now, just wait a moment."

Although the Shenji Battalion is not under the control of the King of Han, the King of Han is the prince, and the officers dare not refuse unless it is a military order.

But although you can't refuse, it's okay to go slower.

"Hurry up, you fucking hurry up for me."

Seeing the disappearing figure in the distance, Zhu Gaoxu scolded his mother anxiously.

It took a while, and finally the equipment is fully equipped.

Zhu Gaoxu pushed away the officer who put on protective clothing for him, got on his horse and rushed into the plague prevention zone.

When Zhu Gaoxu continued to set off, the old man and Zhu Zhangui had already arrived at the outer camp of Shenji Camp.

"Grandpa, do you want to go in and rest for a while, or go to the side of the well?"

At the gate of the camp, Zhu Zhangui asked Zhu Di for his opinion.

The old man looked at Qufu City in the distance, and the many well fences that were higher than the city wall, and said without hesitation: "Go and have a look first, before it's too late, your second uncle will catch up."

After finishing speaking, regardless of the officers of the Shenji Battalion who came out to greet him, he turned his horse and headed towards the well fence.

Zhu Zhangui had no choice but to wave his hand and let the officers mount their horses and follow.

A group of people quickly came to the well fence outside the city.

The officers of the Shenji Battalion dispersed to watch their surroundings, while Zhu Zhangui and the old man quickly boarded the well fence.

"Whoosh..."
