Zhu Xiongying looked at Elder Zhong helplessly, and said:
"Mr. Zhong, we have already seen six or seven houses."
"Is there no one that can catch your old eyes?"
Elder Zhong folded his arms and said with a dissatisfied expression:
"I don't like either."
"Old man, I like a secluded, smaller room."
"It's enough to have a small yard for the old man to relax."
Zhu Xiongying advised:
"Mr. Zhong, you are now working for the court, why are you confined to a small house?"
"Choose a more dignified house, which is also in line with your status."
"I pay anyway."
Elder Zhong glanced at Zhu Xiongying and said:
"No, I'm not working for the court."
"I just do things for you."
"We can make it clear."
Zhu Xiongying was stunned:
"Is there... any difference?"
Elder Zhong replied:
"If you beg me as the eldest grandson of the emperor, it is impossible for me to agree."
"But if you come to me as Zhu Xiongying, I will help you."
"So, do you understand?"
Mr. Zhong said so.
Only then did Zhu Xiongying finally understand.
"That's fine," he shrugged helplessly, "In that case, let's look at some small houses."
"It should be close to the palace," Mr. Zhong added, "so that if anything happens to you in the palace, the old man can arrive in time."
Zhu Xiongying smiled and nodded:
"Okay, it's up to you."
The two sat in the carriage for a while, and finally stopped in a secluded alley beside the imperial city.
"Yes, yes, a small house like this is fine."
Mr. Zhong only glanced at it, then made a decision.
Zhu Xiongying looked at the small house, hesitated and said:
"But, this is too small, not grand at all, a circle smaller than ordinary people."
Elder Zhong said indifferently:
"What's the matter... It's too big to live alone, and it's too lonely. The ordinary people you mentioned have at least three people. I live alone. Why bother?"
"I think this one is good, so I will buy this one."
Zhu Xiongying said in astonishment:
"You don't go in and take a look?"
"Look, anyway, you will find someone to help me clean up the inside," Mr. Zhong said with a smile, "I don't have high requirements for these things. When I was practicing in the mountains, I could live in a sheltered place." .”
Zhu Xiongying saw that Mr. Zhong was so indifferent, so he had no choice but to give up.
I thought, when I go back, arrange for two young eunuchs to come here to take care of it, and then let Mr. Zhong live in.
At this time.
A team of Jin Yiwei rushed over, and the leader saw Zhu Xiongying's carriage, stepped forward quickly, and saluted beside the carriage:
"Jinyiwei Qianhu Maquan, pay homage to His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson!"
Zhu Xiongying opened the front curtain of the carriage, saw that it was Jin Yiwei, and asked:
"What's the matter?"
Ma Quan clapped his hands and said:
"My minister was ordered by Master Tongzhi to invite His Highness to visit Fusi in Jinyiwei Town."
Zhu Xiongying asked again:
"He Li? But something happened?"
"Why didn't he come to me himself?"
Ma showed a bitter look all over his face, lowered his head and said:
"Master Tongzhi...Master Tongzhi..."
"What's wrong with him?" Zhu Xiongying sensed that something was wrong, and immediately frowned and asked, "Speak directly."
Ma Quan gritted his teeth and said:
"Your Majesty Tongzhi met His Highness King Qin who was returning to the capital today, and for some reason offended His Highness King Qin, he ordered someone to tie him up and beat him with a hundred lashes..."
"Right now, Master Tongzhi is lying on the bed with serious injuries...he can no longer get off the ground."
"Your Majesty Tongzhi said that you were supposed to return to His Highness tonight, but now that you can't move, you can only ask His Highness to drive you to the Zhenfu Division."
"what?!"
Hearing this news, Zhu Xiongying was furious.
King Qin.
Zhu Xi.
Zhu Yuanzhang's second son lived in Xi'an.
did not expect……
He came back so fast?
"King Qin...uncle, why did you beat He Li?" Zhu Xiongying asked sharply, showing displeasure on his face, "tell me exactly what happened."
Ma Quandao:
"Returning to Your Highness, it's not that I don't say anything, but that I really don't know why His Royal Highness King Qin wants to beat Master Tongzhi..."
"At that time, the two general banners following Master Tongzhi were all beaten to death by His Highness King Qin's men."
"My minister asked, but Master Tongzhi refused to tell us... Now only Master Tongzhi himself knows the whole story."
Zhu Xiongying looked back at Mr. Zhong.
"Don't worry about me, the house won't run away with long legs," Mr. Zhong said casually, "If there is something urgent, deal with it first, and buy it next time."
Zhu Xiongying nodded and said to the horse:
"Go, take me to Zhenfusi."
……
Fusi of Jinyiwei Town.
In a certain room, Zhu Xiongying saw He Li lying on the bed.
At this moment, He Li was covered with whip wounds all over his body, and his chest was so bloody that it was unbearable to look directly at him.
see this scene.
Zhu Xiongying clenched his fists.
Now He Li is his man, no matter who moves He Li, he can't just turn a blind eye.
"Who moved the hand?"
He Li raised his head, looked at Zhu Xiongying, shook his head slightly and said:
"Your Highness, I'm fine, Your Highness don't need to be angry with me."
Zhu Xiongying was expressionless, just looked at He Li, and asked again:
"I ask you, who moved the hand."
He Li was silent.
Zhu Xiongying deliberately said:
"You're so stubborn now, you don't even dare to answer my questions, right?"
He Li had no choice but to say:
"Chen, I don't want His Highness to be angry with me, it's not worth it."
"If His Highness did something impulsively that he would regret, then his death would not be a pity."
Zhu Xiongying snorted coldly and asked:
"You have been with me for so long, you can see that I did something out of impulse?"
"Now, I ask, and your answer is yes."
"The one who moved you was the King of Qin, right?"
He Li hesitated for a long time, looking at Ma Quan behind Zhu Xiongying with an ugly face, knowing that this matter cannot be concealed, he nodded slightly.
"Why did King Qin beat you?" Zhu Xiongying asked with his hands behind his back.
He Li gave Ma Quan a wink.
Ma Quan understood immediately, and bowed to Zhu Xiongying and said:
"Weichen will take his leave first."
After speaking, he exited the room and closed the door tightly.
Now, only Zhu Xiongying and He Li were left in the whole room.
"Your Highness, Jin Yiwei is ordered by His Majesty to be your Majesty's eyes and ears. There are spies everywhere..." He Li endured the severe pain and said slowly, "Especially the chief ministers, prefects, and vassals...their There are Jinyiwei people hiding in the house."
Zhu Xiongying narrowed his eyes and suddenly realized:
"King Qin found out that there are Jin Yiwei's spies in his house?"
"Aren't the people sent by Jin Yiwei the best at disguising?"
"How...how did he find out?"
He Li coughed twice and replied:
"It is said that one of the generals under King Qin discovered it, but I think..."
"In Jinyiwei... there may be spies who are not loyal to His Majesty and His Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson!"
Chapter 238 Passing on the Word of God?go in and say
Zhu Xiongying realized the seriousness of the matter.
As the emperor's intelligence agency, Jin Yiwei's most important thing is loyalty.
If someone with a ulterior motive sneaked into it, it would definitely cause the entire Jinyiwei to suffer a great blow.
"Where are the Jin Yiwei lurking in Prince Qin's Mansion?"
Zhu Xiongying asked.
He Li replied in a somewhat depressed mood:
"According to what King Qin said, he should have been found and killed with a stick."
Hearing such an answer, Zhu Xiongying only felt that the veins on his forehead were bulging, and he almost lost control of his emotions.
