I'm watching the gate in the jail

The door of the firewood room was slowly pushed open, and light came in from the outside.

"Ah Zhi..."

Hearing this familiar voice, Xiao Wang raised his head excitedly.

No, he can't speak yet.

How long have you been counting?

A Niang said that it takes dozens of "one to one hundred" for him to win against Susu.

If she went out now, wouldn't Susu win him?

"Ah Zhi, are you in there?"

Wang Zhi saw a pair of men's boots appear among the staggered firewood and branches.

How many?Is it one thousand?

Wang Zhi spread out his hands, his chubby cheeks pouting in frustration.

Just now, when I counted to one hundred, I just rolled up one finger, and after I counted ten fingers, I reached one thousand.What hundredth is it now?

"If you don't come out, I will leave."

Wanda said, turning around to leave.

"Susu don't leave! Ah Zhi is here."

Wang Zhi hurriedly pushed aside the branches in front of him, and stood up with a soft cry.

What greeted him was a piece of clothing that covered his head.

Wang Zhi realized that he was completely covered, and his eyes were completely dark. He was stunned for a moment, and then said happily, "Then I still won. Susu didn't see me, and the game is not over yet."

Then, with his eyes closed, he continued to count.

"one two Three……"

It's a bit deceptive.

Wanda, who was holding the child, was taken aback for a moment, then slowly came to his senses.

It turned out that Mrs. Wang hid the child in front of the firewood pile to trick him into playing hide and seek...

This kid, who doesn't know anything, thought he was playing a game with him.

Wanda walked out of the woodshed, saw the soldiers carrying Mrs. Wang's body out, and involuntarily hugged Wang Zhi tighter.

Mrs. Wang, until the last moment, she still loved Ah Zhi in her heart.

Wanda sighed deeply again, her eyes flushed.

Walking to the front, Gao Hui was directing the officers and soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and the body of Miss Duoduo was also dragged out, and placed side by side with Mei Niang's.

Wang Zheng, the brothers of the Pan family and the two traitors have been captured and taken back to the prison camp. They were imprisoned together with Wang Yuanwai, the prefect of Lu, and the county magistrate.

The female relatives and servants, as well as relatives of the Wang family, were taken back to the county government prison, waiting for identity verification and subsequent conviction.

The operation went smoothly. Although Mei Qianzhang was the biggest variable, the food and grass were not taken away, and people like Wang Zheng were also brought to the case.

The only regret is that Hou Dagou slipped away.

Before the officers and soldiers broke into Wang's house, he somehow got the news and fled from the backyard of Wang's house.

Although Lan San and the others did not admit that the man was Master Hou, according to the servants of the Wang family, the two of them were extremely respectful to the escaped man.

This Lan San is the second-in-command of Datangxia, and the person who can make him respectful is not their leader, but who else.

In this regard, everyone is very sad.

If the biggest leader of the rebel army can be captured, then the next battle will almost be won without a fight.

At that time, the dragons will have no leader, and the court only needs to go into the mountains to drive out the remaining party members.It may not take half a year at all, three or four months will be able to eliminate this serious problem that has plagued Ming Dynasty for a hundred years.

What a pity.

Children are particularly prone to fatigue after being frightened.

Before Wanda took the child back to Sijin Restaurant, Wang Zhi counted and fell asleep from exhaustion.

Because he was covered with "Susu"'s clothes, and he could hear the voice of "Susu" talking with others, Wang Zhi was very at ease.

Even if Wanda asked him to get up and eat something, he shook his head and said that he would get up for a snack when he was full of sleep.

"My lord, leave the child to me."

Qin Chang patted the child's shoulder tenderly, "I took care of every child who was purified when they first entered the palace."

"That... I heard that you too, father-in-law..."

Wanda asked with some embarrassment.

Although it was impolite to say so, he heard that this Eunuch Tan was originally from Guangxi, and because of his family's troubles, he entered the palace as a eunuch since he was a child.

Wanda has a bad feeling...

"Yes, the miscellaneous family did enter the palace because of this."

Qin Chang smiled, thinking that this uncle Guo is really a gentle person, and his identity is not a secret in the palace at all.It is precisely because of his experience that His Majesty sent him to Guangxi this time to assist Uncle Xiaoguo in handling the case.

"Actually, it's not just miscellaneous families. Many maids and eunuchs in the palace entered the palace because of their family members' crimes. Eunuch Huai'en is also in the palace. Does your lord know the 'Sanbao eunuch' who is serving Master Yongle?"

Even a semi-literate Wanda is familiar with this name, he nodded, "I know, the 'Zheng He' in 'Zheng He's Voyages'."

"Grandpa Zheng is a leader among our servants, a role model for palace people."

Speaking of this senior, Wynn is also full of respect.

"My lord, don't you know that Grandpa Zheng was also captured into the palace when he was young because of the Battle of Pingdian?"

According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, a man under the age of 15 is not considered a "Cheng Ding".If involved in a treason case, the crime is not fatal, and usually will be castrated and served in the inner court.

The female family members will be sent to serve in the inner court and the clothing bureau, or enter the Jiaofang Division as official prostitutes.

Those who survived had a miserable life, and even preferred to commit suicide when they had no time to copy their family records.

And some people, because of the opportunity to enter the most honorable place in the world, deduce a legend of their own.

"Then...Ah Zhi, isn't he going to be..."

Wanda is really hard to accept.

If I remember correctly, "Wang Zhi" in history was a eunuch, and he was also a notorious eunuch.

It's not that he looks down on the profession of eunuch, and he doesn't want to change history, but what did Ah Zhi do wrong?He is just a child!

Thinking of the fate Ah Zhi was about to face, he felt for the first time that this kind of law that involved his family was really unfair.

"No, I want to take Ah Zhi away!"

As Wanda said, as soon as her head got hot, she wanted to hug the child.

I can't control that much anymore, hide the child first, and talk about the rest later.

"My lord, as the Jinyiwei yourself, don't you know that the Jinyiwei and the spies from the East Factory are everywhere?"

Even if he is the second in command of Dongchang.

No, even Eunuch Wynn, who is the leader, doesn't know how many people and where are watching him.

This is the Ming Dynasty, who doesn't have a pair of eyes behind him?

This little uncle is really kind and innocent.

Qin Chang touched the child's sleeping flushed face and chuckled lightly.

"My lord, according to the rules, the child's family members will be held in custody until Han Da leads them back to Beijing to offer prisoners. Then those who should be beheaded will be beheaded, and those who should be beheaded will be beheaded. It will be at least half a year." time."

Qin Chang continued to speak calmly.

"My lord, instead of thinking about such unrealistic things as how to smuggle the child out, you might as well think about what other ways you can keep him after you arrive in the capital early."

Hearing what he said, Wanda felt as if he was slightly enlightened.

"Go out, my lord. I'll take care of the child. It's all right."

Qin Chang laughed, "Inspector Qiu and the others are still waiting for you!"

Wanda nodded, grabbed the flash of inspiration just now, and walked out of the guest room door.

"Yeah... Am I stupid? Who am I? Wan Zhen'er's younger brother too! My sister is my 'Gold Finger', okay?"

Wanda turned her head gratefully, and glanced at the closed door.

Half of the stone in his heart was put down, Wanda went downstairs to join Qiu Zijin.

"How is Mei Qianzhang?"

The two left Sijin Restaurant and walked towards the Qianhu Office while talking.

Wanda was terrified by Mei Qianzhang's tragic situation just now, and really thought that he was going to die in his arms, but this guy came back to life with a big gasp.

The military doctor from the guard came over later, pressed on his chest, and said nonchalantly that only three or four ribs were broken.

The broken bone didn't pierce the heart and lungs, so I won't die for a while, I just have to lie on the bed and recuperate, nothing serious except the pain.

"A good man doesn't live long, but a scourge lasts a thousand years. He's fine."

Because of the charge of defection, Mei Qianzhang is now recuperating in the military prison of Qianhusuo.But for the sake of Wanda and the others, he packed up a private room and came out, and someone cooked medicine for him and sent him meals.

It was rare to hear Qiu Zijin say such hurtful words, Wanda stopped and looked at him curiously.

"Are you mad at him for defecting? To be honest, I might not be able to keep him this time."

Wanda said realistically.

Defecting in front of the battle, leaking military information, both of which are capital crimes.

Afterwards, it would be fine if the army wins, but if it loses, I'm afraid it's even possible that he will be delayed.

"No, I'm just curious, how can someone live so freely?"

Qiu Zijin narrowed his eyes and said with a sigh, "I used to think of him as a little thief. But you say he is heinous, and he stole from those corrupt officials. Later I thought he had changed his ways and turned to be a good man, but he Today came again such a..."

"Although it is said that Mrs. Wang should be his biological mother, it is understandable for a son to want to save his mother. But he is already an official after all..."

In Qiu Zijin's life, he had never met someone who played cards completely against common sense like him.

Even Master Wan, who is somewhat similar to him and has a street vibe, still has to take into account the emperor's order, the Ming law, and Jin Yiwei's face when doing things.

"This man is like... an uncivilized beast."

Wanda also thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.

Despise the rules, or in other words, have a set of rules in your heart that is different from others.

Ignores the law, but has a weird attachment to human relationships.

Like an uncivilized beast, walking in the world with its own rules.

In the end, he was swallowed by the rules of this world.

Qiu Zijin lowered his head with a gloomy expression.

"What is your lord going to do with him?"

"Take it back to the capital, issue an imperial edict, and wait for the Nanzhen Fusi to come and try the case."

The main reason is that the matter of Mei Qianzhang's joining Jinyiwei has been brought up before, so it can only be dealt with according to the discipline violation procedures of Jinyiwei's internal staff.

"Prison..."

Qiu Zijin bit his lip in fear.

Although he went in and out of Beizhen Fusi countless times to eat and eat, he didn't dare to take a second look at that terrifying place.

"Will he die?"

"Maybe……"

Wanda said hesitantly, "I can only pity Mrs. Lan's painstaking efforts."

In fact, if Mei Qianzhang hadn't discovered that there might be rebels among the people entering and leaving Wang's house that day, they would not have arranged this action suddenly.

Even so, merits and demerits cannot be offset, and Mei Qianzhang may be in danger this time.

Qiu Zijin didn't say much, and the two came to the execution room of the military prison.

Yang Xiuxian folded his arms and turned his back to them. Gao Hui beside him was holding a whip in his hand. It seemed that he had just been tortured.

"Are you still refusing to reveal the location of the thief's lair on the mountain?"

Wanda endured the smell of blood and asked.

Yang Xiuxian turned around and appointed someone to take Qiu Zijin out who was about to faint.Then open the door of the cell and let Wanda go in.

What caught Wanda's eyes was Wang Zheng who was covered in whiplash, sweat, salt water and blood all over his body.

Hearing Wanda's voice, Wang Zheng raised his head and actually smiled at him, "The villain Wang Zheng has met Wan Zhenfu."

Hearing the irony in his tone, Wanda didn't care.

He took out a small hat from his pocket and put it in front of Wang Zheng.

"A Zhi's hat!"

Wang Zheng recognized it as belonging to his son at a glance.

"Although Mrs. Wang is dead, Ah Zhi is fine."

Wanda said bluntly, "If you don't want something to happen to Ah Zhi, you'd better cooperate."

"Treasurer Wan, you threatened me with a child, are you still human?"

Wang Zheng spat bloody saliva at Wanda, "He likes you so much, he regards you as his own uncle."

"It's all because of your sins, what does it have to do with my lord?"

Yang Xiuxian said coldly, "Ask yourself, the Wang family's current family business is built on the bones of many people? Do you dare to say that this is not retribution?"

"You Han people are so eloquent, I can't say no to you."

Wang Zheng turned his face away bitterly, "Don't say it so righteously, it's just the troops of your Han emperor who want to flatten our Liao people's homeland."

"What does this have to do with the Han people, the Liao people? We are all descendants of the Yellow Emperor and the people of the Ming Dynasty. The sun of the Ming Dynasty shines on every Han and all the Yao brothers. You are not the reason at all. .”

Wanda could have grown up singing "56 nations, 56 flowers", so of course she wouldn't be bewitched by him.

"Over the past few years, the United Kings have embezzled the land on the hills outside the city. Those who lost their homes and fertile land, aren't you brothers?"

"You helped the tyrants to abuse the government, joined forces with the rebels to besiege the government office, and the government treasury was burned, causing the people in the city to live in poverty. Could it be that only the Han people suffered losses?"

"Sitting on a merchant ship, you can see that Guangdong and Guangxi are now full of barren fields and dilapidated scenes. Aren't the people who suffered because of the war all ordinary people in Guangdong and Guangxi?"

Wanda pointed at Wang Zheng and cursed.

"In order to appease the border, the emperor has sowed a lot of money for more than ten years. The original intention was to comfort the people. In the end, it all went into the pockets of you profiteers. Who made the lives of the people of Guangxi the way they are now? You? The traitor on the mountain? Or His Majesty the Emperor?"

Wang Zheng was speechless.

"If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about Ah Zhi. Do you really want him to die with you? He just celebrated his sixth birthday today. He should still have a long way to go in his life."

After speaking harshly, Wanda changed into a soft tone, "I will protect him, and I will take care of him for the rest of his life, as long as you tell me where the thief's den is."

Seeing Wang Zheng's shaken expression, Wanda nodded to Yang Xiuxian, and the two backed out together.

"What will happen after Ah Zhi?"

Standing outside the prison, listening to the wailing voices of the Wang family and the Wang family, Yang Xiuxian looked at the solemn Wanda.

"I told you, I'll take care of him."

Wanda lowered her head and said firmly, "I'll protect him."

"He is the son of a sinner. It stands to reason that even if he does not die, he should be sent to the palace to be castrated...to be a servant."

Yang Xiuxian's tone was also full of unbearable.

"I'm going to ask my mother."

Wanda licked her lips, "My sister will definitely agree. When she agrees, I will ask my brother-in-law again, and it will be easy."

Yang Xiuxian couldn't laugh or cry when he heard his extremely simple and rude plan, "Yes, it is indeed the most useful to follow the mother's path."

After all, Wan Zhen'er is Zhu Jianshen's only weakness, and Wanda is Wan Zhen'er's darling.

"It was Eunuch Tan who reminded me."

Wanda raised her head, "Maybe it's because I feel that I and Ah Zhi have the same disease."

"My lord, Wang Zheng said that he wants to see his son."

At this moment, Gao Hui came out, "He said he wanted to talk to his son. He wanted to take a bath and change his clothes... After that, he told the whole story about the situation on the mountain."

Wang Zhi, who woke up, was embraced by a pair of big unfamiliar hands. He looked at this handsome uncle curiously, put on his coat slowly, and combed his hair again.

Although this man is an uncle, he speaks softly and moves much more gently than Duoduo.

"Are you Susu's friend?"

Wang Zhi yawned and yawned, his little hand still holding Wanda's coat and not letting go, "Where's Susu?"

Qin Chang put on the new hat for Wang Zhi, and gently nodded Wang Zhi's little nose, "You Susu is cooking for you downstairs. Your father is also downstairs waiting for you to eat together."

Wang Zhi nodded, thought for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Where is A Niang? Where is Duoduo?"

Qin Chang froze for a moment, then hugged him up, "You will know when you go down."

When the two walked downstairs, Wanda had already prepared a table of dishes.

Master Wang, Pan Guang, Pan Xing, Yang Xiuxian, Qiu Zijin and others were all present. They all raised their heads and looked at them as they walked down from above.

"father……"

Seeing Wang Zheng, Wang Zhi quickly slid off Tan Chang's body, and threw himself on Wang Zheng as usual.

Wang Zheng lowered his head and hugged his plump son, but because he was touched by the wound on his arm, his face twisted all of a sudden.

Fortunately, the bandage was tightly wrapped and the wound did not burst.

He hugged Wang Zhi on his lap, picked up a piece of fish, and put it in the small bowl in front of him.

"This is Susu's specialty dish. People in Xunzhou City want to eat it, but they have to queue up. Try it."

Wang Zheng said kindly.

Wang Zhi already knew how to use chopsticks by himself. He picked up a piece of boiled fish and put it in his mouth. His face turned red immediately, and he opened his mouth.

He hadn't tasted chili before, and thought that this red thing was a candied fruit that he usually eats, and he greedily chewed a large piece of it just now.

"Hahaha……"

Wang Zheng was amused to laugh, but the wound on his body was affected again.

Wang Zhi turned his head, saw his painful expression, thought he was too hot from eating fish, and giggled.

"Ah Zhi, Dad is going to go to the caravan. This time, he will not only go with your two uncles, but also take your mother and go with your sister Duoduo."

Wang Zhi picked up the food himself, nodding while eating.

"Did A Niang and Sister Duoduo pack up for Dad?"

This is a common occurrence. Every time Father goes out, Mother and Duoduo will be busy for a long time.

Father and the others are often not at home.But it is relatively rare to bring a mother.

"How long is Dad going?"

Wang Zhi asked innocently.

"A long time... a long time."

Master Wang lowered his head and put his chin on Wang Zhi's hat, "Maybe we won't be able to come back until Ah Zhi grows up."

The people present couldn't help turning their heads away after hearing this.

"Not long."

Wang Zhi raised his head, "Ah Niang said, Ah Zhi will grow up soon."

"That's right... the faster Ah Zhi grows, the sooner Dad can come back."

Wang Zheng put his arms around his shoulders and looked straight into his eyes, "Before Dad comes back, you will follow Susu, okay?"

"Yeah! That's great!"

Wang Zhi clapped his hands happily, the chopsticks almost flew out.

"Can I play with Susu every day from now on?"

"Yes, every day."

Wang Zheng stroked his head and back affectionately, "So you must obey Su Su's words in the future and be a good obedient boy."

"Ah Zhi is obedient."

Wang Zhi was very happy. Although his mother was not here, he was a little unhappy, but when he thought of being able to be with Susu in the future, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Where's Susu?"

When I went downstairs just now, I didn't see Susu. Is Susu cooking?

"I'm making you a snack, little greedy cat."

At this moment, Wanda came out of the back kitchen with a small cream cake and put it in front of Wang Zhi.

"Wow……"

Seeing this white cloud-like thing in front of him, Wang Zhi's eyes straightened.

There are a lot of candied fruit on this "cloud", red, yellow, green, with a sweet aroma...

The cream on this simple version of "Cream Cake" is made by Wanda with milk, eggs and sugar.

Due to limited time, the "cake embryo" below is a shortbread bought directly from an outside pastry shop, and then sprinkled with ready-made candied fruit.

Although in the eyes of Wanda, it is simply a "copycat" work, but it is still enough to scare the ignorant children of the Ming Dynasty.

Not only Wang Zhi, but even Qiu Zijin was dumbfounded, and then began to swallow wildly.

"This is 'birthday cake', a specialty of my hometown. Every child eats it on their birthday."

Wanda smiled and dipped some butter with her index finger, and fed it to Wang Zhi's mouth. Wang Zhi stuck out his tongue and licked the white "cloud"...

"So sweet, so soft, so fragrant!"

The little guy was so excited that he wished he could swallow this "cloud" in one gulp right now.

"What kind of place is Bazhou? There is such a special product? Can I eat it on every birthday?"

Qiu Zijin excitedly turned his head and wanted to ask Mei Qianzhang, but Gao Hui was sitting on his right side with an expressionless face.

"Reporting to my lord, my subordinates don't even know that Bazhou has this kind of special product."

Gao Hui replied realistically.

Feeling bored, Qiu Zijin turned his head and watched curiously as Wanda found another red candle from the back of the kitchen, lit it and stuck it on the cake.

"Make a wish."

Wanda took Wang Zhi's little hand, "Our children over there will make a wish before blowing out the candles on their birthdays. After blowing out the candles, the wish will come true."

Looking at the dancing flames on the candle, Wang Zhi nodded his head, widened his eyes, and said loudly, "A Zhi hopes to be so happy every day in the future. I hope that Dad, A Niang, Su Su, and everyone will be happy. And Ah Zhi has to grow up quickly, and Dad will come back soon."

As he spoke, he pursed his mouth and blew out the candle with a "huh".

Tears flashed from Wanda's eyes.

Wang Zheng nodded gratefully to Wanda, and patted his son's head, "A Zhi obediently eat, Daddy wants to talk to Susu."

Wang Zhi almost buried his face in the pile of cream, he didn't have the time to talk to him, he just nodded.

"Lord Wan, Lord Yang, let's talk upstairs."

Wang Zheng got up, looked at Wang Zhi's background reluctantly, and couldn't help saying for the last time, "A Zhi..."

"I want to listen to what you Susu say."

In July of the first year of Chenghua, after two delays in Nanjing, Han Yong finally sent his army south and started the battle against rebellion in Guangdong and Guangxi.

In July, Xiyan won the first battle.

In September, the army successfully captured Lipu and Xiuren, the must-pass places on the way to Dateng Gorge.

In October, the army arrived in Xunzhou and successfully pushed into the mouth of Datang Gorge.

At the end of November, based on the intelligence that Jin Yiwei had previously investigated, Han Yong divided his troops into four groups and attacked Datang Gorge at the same time, basically blocking all escape routes on the mountain.

On the first day of December, Han Yong personally confronted Hou Dagou, set fire to the mountain, and took turns using rolling stones, wood and artillery to consume the rebel forces.A few days later, the leader of the bandit, Hou Dagou, was captured, more than three rebels were beheaded, and nearly 800 people were captured alive.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China a hundred years ago, this is the biggest victory that the Ming army has won on the southwest border.

Han Yong stood beside Datang Gorge, cut off the giant vine with his own hands, and renamed Datang Gorge "Duanteng Gorge".He ordered the inscription on the cliff to record the results of this battle on the cliff as a memorial forever.

Han Yong personally wrote "The Aftermath of the Dateng Gorge Incident", and put forward his opinions on the governance after Guangdong and Guangxi.And speaking of this battle, Jin Yiwei's intelligence contributed a lot.

Presented together with the memorial are young and beautiful female captives and castrated handsome boys.

"Yeah."

Seeing the good news, Zhu Jianshen applauded again and again.

It's been too long, Daming hasn't fought such a big victory for too long.

Commander Han, I didn't misread you, your "Strategy for Countering Rebellion" was indeed right.

In the deep palace, Zhu Jianshen, who had already put on a thick velvet jacket, patted his thigh excitedly.

"Tomorrow, pass this good news to people all over the world. Let all the soldiers and civilians of Ming Dynasty be honored!"

Zhu Jianshen wished that the sun would rise sooner, so that all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty could share the joy.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, and the country's fortune is prosperous."

Wynn is also beaming.

"But Your Majesty...it's been so long..."

"what?"

Zhu Jianshen's face darkened, and he sat back on the dragon chair.

"The slave is saying that Master Xiaowan has contributed a lot to the victory of the two parties this time..."

"Hmph... Is it a credit?"

Zhu Jianshen sneered, "I see, he is preparing to be a 'master of high merit'!"

Hearing these heartbreaking words, Wynn quickly knelt down, "Your Majesty Mr. Xiaowan is not that kind of person."

"How long has he been in prison?"

Zhu Jianshen picked up the pen, didn't write a word, and threw it away in disgust, "Is it three months?"

"It's been half a year since I returned to Beijing in July and went to Zhaode Palace to pay my respects to the empress. Except for going to the palace twice a month to pay my respects to the empress, I have been locked in the prison for the rest of the time. "

Wynn smiled bitterly.

This Xiaowan lord is really too bold.

After the group of them returned to the capital from Xunzhou, it stands to reason that they should go to Beizhen Fusi to report on their duties first, and then wait for His Majesty to summon them.

Who knew that the first thing Mr. Xiao Wan did when he returned to Beijing was to secretly bring a child to Zhaode Palace.

The child didn't know whose family it was, but it was smart and cute, and the little mouth was as sweet as honey.

The empress originally liked to see this kind of snow-white, round and fat doll because she was pregnant with a dragon child, but when she saw that it was brought in by her younger brother, why not feel distressed, so she hurriedly took his little hand and asked, whose family are you from? Baby.

Unexpectedly, Master Xiaowan suddenly knelt down at this moment, saying that this is someone else's child, who was abducted from Guangxi, and begged His Majesty to give this child to him.

What he said was so messed up that the mother-in-law was shocked.

Unfortunately at that time, His Majesty was returning to Zhaode Palace just as he was descending from court.

Seeing the chaotic scene in front of him, and hearing that Master Xiaowan actually brought an unidentified child into the palace, he was so angry that he asked Huai En and Tan Chang to drag him down on the spot, and sent him to prison for self-reflection.

Reflecting on it now, it has been nearly half a year...

"Did he make a mistake?"

Zhu Jianshen said irritably.

"This one……"

Wynn looked troubled.

"Hmph, I don't know him yet! Bah! Dogs can't change eating shit."

As soon as this little uncle Lang was mentioned, Zhu Jianshen would become very "willless".

"Let's go to Zhaode Palace to have a look."

According to what the imperial physician said, Minister Wan is going to give birth in the next few days, and Minister Wan is old after all, so we can't take it lightly.

The crowd followed Luanjia to the outside of Zhaode Palace. The palace servants standing at the door were about to raise their voices to announce, but Zhu Jianshen pressed his hand to signal him to keep his voice down.

With his hands behind his back, Zhu Jianshen walked into the palace lightly. The maids who were about to kneel down and salute along the way all shut their mouths quietly after seeing Eunuch Wynn's gesture.

"Your Majesty, is this the little prince or the little princess?"

Wang Zhi, who was wearing a miniature servant's clothes, knelt at Wan Zhen'er's feet and asked curiously as he looked at her bulging belly.

The little green skirt spread out on the ground, and the light shone on the child's face, making his eyes round and bright.

That day, Zhu Jianshen sent Wanda, an unprogressive brat, to prison without telling Chief Attendant Wan.But how to deal with this child suddenly became difficult.

Looking at the pitiful little Wang Zhi who was blinking and blinking, Wan Zhen'er was full of maternal love, and said to let him stay in the palace, what's in the way of such a small child?

Eunuch Tan Chang also beat the snake with a stick, saying that there are many young servants who have just entered the palace, so let this child stay.

Looking at Chief Servant Wan's expectant eyes, Zhu Jianshen secretly scolded Uncle Lang for being inhuman, yet he dared to "reckon" me. He just knew that there was nothing I could do about Chief Servant Wan, and it was definitely on purpose!

Zhu Jianshen had no choice but to nod helplessly, agreeing to let the child stay in the palace "temporarily".

Currently "temporarily" for half a year.

"Didn't Ah Zhi's mother give birth to a little brother for you?"

Wan Zhen'er gently stroked her stomach with one hand, and pinched Wang Zhi's chubby cheeks with the other.

"No, Ah Zhi doesn't even have any brothers."

Wang Zhi said wearily, "Ah Zhi also wants to have a younger brother. When he has a younger brother, Ah Zhi will be a good brother and play with him."

"When the princess gives birth to the prince, Ah Zhi wants to play with him."

The deep palace is lonely, Zhu Jianshen's harem has been established for more than a year, and he has not heard a baby crying.Wan Zhen'er is fine, at least she is pregnant with the dragon species, but the other ladies have not given birth yet.

Seeing such a lovely child surrounded by her knees, Wan Zhen'er's body and mind, which had been extremely hard because of pregnancy, seemed to be injected with vitality.

What kind of person she was, I guessed seven or eight points in my heart at that time, my brother should have something important to hide from me.

I just know that she is soft-hearted and will definitely not reject this child.So he took the risk and took him into the palace, wanting to take it slowly later.

When she developed feelings for this child, she would definitely protect him.

Sure enough, when the child lived in the palace for almost a month, Eunuch Qin Chang told her that he was the child of a thief in the Guangxi counter-insurgency campaign. My brother couldn't bear the pain of castration, so he was taken away from the prisoner camp. come out.

"Ma'am, can I touch the prince?"

Wang Zhi raised his head and asked carefully.

Not only Wan Zhen'er was stunned, but even Zhu Jianshen who was standing outside the window was stunned.

"Okay, okay..."

Wan Zhen'er stretched out her hand, grabbed Wang Zhi's little hand, and put it on her stomach together, "Touch..."

Wang Zhi widened his eyes, felt the movement under his palm, and said in surprise, "Mother, he moved. The little prince moved."

"Yes, the little prince moved."

Wan Zhen'er was also moved.

"Little prince, you have to come out quickly, Ah Zhi will take you to play."

Wang Zhi put down his hands, and said innocently to Wan Zhen'er's stomach.

"Your Majesty... shall we still go in?"

Looking at Zhu Jianshen's serious side face, Wynn said with some anxiety.

"Let's go later..."

Zhu Jianshen looked at the interaction between Wang Zhi and Wan Zhen'er, and suddenly seemed to see his young self, and Wan Shichang, who was only in his early twenties at that time...

"Uncle Lang..."

He hesitated.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wynn's eyes lit up.

"He likes to stay in prison, so let's do it. He will be released before the Chinese New Year."

Zhu Jian sighed deeply, raised his head, and said helplessly.

"After the new year, Minister Wan should give birth."

"Yes!"

Wynn couldn't help nodding in relief.

After a while, he asked Qin Chang to pass the good news to Master Xiaowan.

What does a majestic Jinyiwei Zhenfu, who is locked in the imperial prison, look like!

"My lord, Eunuch Tan is here."

Inside the gate of the imperial prison, Wanda squinted, lying on a recliner covered with cotton, basking in the sun comfortably.The warm sun shone on his body, dry and warm, making his bones almost crisp.

"Master Xiaowan, you are really relaxing."

Seeing the eyeliner scene, Eunuch Qin Chang was speechless.

"Ah, Eunuch Tan is here."

Wanda sat up with a grunt, and waved to the outside, "Gaohui, come, make a pot of tea for the father-in-law."

After speaking, he sat down and lay down again.

"Your Majesty asked you to stay in prison, so you just 'squat' here?"

After receiving the tea Gao Hui made, Qin Chang couldn't laugh or cry.

"That's right, His Majesty asked me to squat in the imperial prison. Am I just 'squatting' at the gate of the imperial prison?"

Wanda said with a hippie smile.

"How is it? Is my sister okay?"

"Your Majesty is very well."

Qin Chang put down his teacup, "Xiao Wangzhi is also doing well. They miss you very much."

"I'm also waiting for 'get out of prison'."

Don't look at him being so happy like a fairy now, he was scared to death the day he was sent to prison.This place is cold and humid, even standing at the door is still windy.

At the critical moment, Xiaoqiu had the brains to say that His Majesty just let him go to prison, but he didn't say what crime he was charged with.

"Squat" Well, then "squat".

So the next day, Yang Xiuxian and Gao Hui took a group of warriors to build him a shelter from the wind and rain at the place where the imperial prison entered, and brought a bamboo bed covered with silk cotton. quilt and pedals.

Small stove, spittoon, etc., not to mention everything.

Wanda wanted to go to the toilet conveniently and conveniently, but also to go back to the office to relieve himself.Everyone turned a blind eye, who would really embarrass him.

The more difficult thing is the group of people in the kitchen.After Wanda came back, she found that their skills had deteriorated so much that she couldn't help but want to teach them and train them again.

So every morning, at the gate of the prison where the wind is blowing, you can see a group of bitter-faced Jinyi guards, holding a pot full of yellow sand, facing the ghosts crying and howling from the prison,
