Chapter 159 Old friends reunite

When Xu Huizu heard about Jing Qing being assassinated at home, he remembered: He had seen that dwarf named Fang Zhongyi!

Before, Xu Huizu went to play a good role in Confucian scholar Fang Xiaoru in order to be in charge.Fang Xiaoru took off his left and right and left a dwarf, and also introduced the origin of the dwarf Fang Zhongyi, who was the assassin!

At this time, Xu Huizu couldn't help but sigh: The imperial court is not as good as a dwarf who understands the great righteousness!

Please be careful.The person who came to report the news next to him whispered.

Xu Huizu sneered, he was not afraid at all.As soon as the capital was broken, someone wanted to capture him. He took out the iron card of death granted by Taizu and said that he was a founding hero, and even the Jinyiwei dared not touch him!

Now Yàn Ni can only lock him up in the mansion and try to cut him off his title.

...The people in Jingfu wore mourning, and there was a sound of mourning.

Jing Jing's mourning hall has been set up, and ministers from the court have come to mourn one after another. The first ones were Yang Rong, Jian Yi and others. They not only expressed their sadness, but also had a faint feeling of sadness from the rabbit to the death of the fox.

When the people who came and said to Mrs. Jing, they looked at the little girl kneeling beside her. Yang Rong even looked at the beautiful woman more than one glance, and was absent-minded when talking to Mrs. Jing.

But no one introduced a little girl to the guest.

The stunning little girl in mourning clothes is Miao Jin.She was wearing a white filial piety uniform, so simple that she was not dressed up at all, but she was naturally gorgeous, with pear blossoms in the rain, and she looked a little more charming.

She was entangled in her heart at this time, and she was sad and vaguely grateful that her family was spared from death. But just as she thought of this, she quickly abandoned these distractions... It was so rebellious!

She was very afraid, and she didn't know why she was so bad. She would have such an idea when her father died. She was simply unfaithful and unfilial!

The many ministers who surrendered to King Yàn came to sigh, which made Miao Jin feel even more ridiculous.My father was going to kill King Yàn, but now he has become the loyal minister of King Yàn...

Once my father dies, Miaojin doesn’t have to die.She knelt in the mourning hall, and felt even more ashamed when she thought that she had lost her chastity before she got married and was the son of someone her father hated.

Just then, someone suddenly shouted: The Lord has arrived!

The relatives and relatives in the mourning hall, as well as the guests who came to mourn, all showed surprise.

The emperor actually came here in person, which was a great honor.

Yang Rong, Jian Yi and others all showed relief. The emperor was still very sincere to those from the previous dynasty, as long as he surrendered, and did not only care about the people from the original Prince Yàn's mansion.

A large group of people immediately walked out of the mourning hall and went to welcome the car.

The gate of Jing Mansion was wide open, and the emperor's sedan chair was carried straight into the mansion.

Zhu Di got off the sedan chair and said: Let's just sit flat.On Lady's Day, mourn and change... Zhu Di talked to Mrs. Jing, but his eyes suddenly looked at Miao Jin behind him. His eyes lit up slightly. Isn't this Xu Miao Jin?

Miaojin had no choice but to step forward and bend her knees.For some reason, she looked much more beautiful than when she was in the palace, and seemed to be more charming, even though she was wearing a plain white dress.

Zhu Di was slightly stunned and hurriedly said, "The Princess always talks about you, Jing Jing's funeral has been completed, so go to the palace to see the princess."

Follow the order.Miaojin lowered her head and said.

Zhu Di immediately turned his head to look at Mrs. Jing and said generously, "Let Censor Jing rest in the spring. I want to give Mrs. Jing an imperial edict, so that the loyal ministers and their families will not be left to support themselves."

Mrs. Jing hurriedly knelt down and said, "I'm thanking the emperor for your kindness."

After hearing this, Miao Jin knelt there and felt a little dizzy. She was worried that her whole family would be killed by King Yàn this morning. Now King Yàn actually came to reward their family.

Things in the world are always caught off guard from time to time.

……

When Jing Qing's family was holding a funeral, the prince Gao Chi also went to mourn.

But Zhu Gaoxu didn't go... The father would immediately understand what he was doing such a small move and what he thought.

Otherwise, my father was so busy, what would he do to Jing Mansion in person?

It’s just a bribe to people’s hearts... and doing such a thing is to blatantly bribe!

After a while, Zhu Gaoxu waited for his jade shop to be redecorated and went to do his own business.

Chen Dachui drove the car, but Zhu Gaoxu didn't take anyone, so he only brought Du Qianrui.

Du Qianrui knew enough secrets, including the matter of Junyingcao, and even Guan Miaojin in the wine cellar... She lived in the inner hall of the Prince's Mansion of Peking for half a year, and probably knew more or less.

Zhu Gaoxu trusted her very much.

The jade shop was basically just like Zhu Gaoxu designed it. A rammed earth brick and stone staircase was built on the front door, and the lobby was the second floor from the stone staircase.

The pavement under the ladder has been blocked by a wall, leaving only one corridor.

Chen Dachui got out of the car and opened the door of the corridor, and rushed the carriage straight into the courtyard.Zhu Gaoxu and Du Qianrui were sitting in the carriage without even showing their faces.

Zhu Gaoxu walked out of the carriage and reached out to help Du Qianrui down.

The carriage at this time was large wooden wheels and high above the ground. Zhu Gaoxu felt that it was taller than the urban off-road in later generations, and it was really inconvenient for women to wear long skirts.

After he got down, he walked to the front and said: I mentioned Wang Zhenliang’s mansion two days ago. Do you still remember the location of the sledgehammer?

Chen Dachui nodded and said: On the other side of Mufu Mountain.

Very good.Zhu Gaoxu took out an empty envelope from his arms, with only his own words: Old friend.He handed it to Chen Dachui and said, "Go to see Wang Zhenliang and ask him to come here to reminisce about the past."

Chen Dahui clasped his fists and said: The last one will get the order!

Zhu Gaoxu said to Du Qianrui again: Miss Du is skillful and the oysters she made last time are delicious. I asked someone to buy some more and Chen Dachui sent them here.Today I have to worry about Miss Du’s meal and entertain my cousin.He smiled and said, "Our cousins ​​were playmates when they were children, otherwise ordinary people would not be able to eat the dishes made by Miss Du."

Du Qianrui bent her knees slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I'll go and prepare now."

Zhu Gaoxu walked to the second floor lobby from the wooden stairs in the yard. The gate was not open yet and was closed with wooden panels.

He picked a few pieces of turbid jade and threw them into two pieces on the spot, putting one piece back on the wooden lattice and putting the other piece into his arms.

He had his broken jade in his arms, so he found a hall, walked into another study room with jade pendants, and sat down and waited.

After waiting for a long time, Chen Dachui went upstairs to find Zhu Gaoxu and reported that Wang Zhenliang had arrived.Zhu Gaoxu walked to the wooden stairs in the yard, clasped his fists and said with a smile: Cousin, are you okay?

Still good and good.Thank you for your concern.Wang Zhenliang also bowed and said with a smile.But Zhu Gaoxu immediately found that he was smiling a little reluctantly.

So Zhu Gaoxu welcomed Wang Zhenliang to the study room just now, sat down next to a few cases, and said: Ling Zun came out of the imperial prison, are you in good health now?

Nothing serious.Wang Zhenliang pondered for a moment and said, "It's true that my father was arrested by the Jinyiwei and had no choice but to confess some people, resulting in many traitors in the palace being killed."Later, before Governor Xu was killed, Jianwenjun personally interrogated his father...

oh!Zhu Gaoxu nodded suddenly.

The son-in-law Wang Ning took the risk and sat down at the side of the palace at the Yàn. Now that he succeeded, he actually believed in the Buddha... Zhu Gaoxu then realized that the mystery was here.

Don’t worry too much, cousin, the prince-consort should be fine.Zhu Gaoxu said kindly.

Wang Zhenliang did not comment.In any case, the Wang family’s previous contribution was almost in vain!

Zhu Gaoxu immediately took out half of the broken jade and handed it to Wang Zhenliang and said: If my cousin wants to see me in the future, he will come to this jade shop.If the shop is closed, throw half of the jade into the crack of the window; if it is open, you will spend ten treasures of treasure money to buy half of the jade in the shop.When we meet, we will return these things to their original location.By the way, the warehouse on Xiaozi Street a few years ago was still in the hands of my cousin?

Wang Zhenliang nodded and said: It’s still the two old couples who are guarding.

Zhu Gaoxu said: That's fine. If I want to have a cousin Xu Jiu, I will take half of the jade to Xiaozi Street, and close the half in your hand.

Wang Zhenliang glanced at Zhu Gaoxu, and King Gaoyang thoughtful.

Zhu Gaoxu said quietly, if I can help you, I will do my best.To repay my cousin for helping me.

After hearing this, Wang Zhenliang said: But it’s just a matter of effort, I dare not.

I remember that my cousin was an assistant minister of the Jinyiwei?Zhu Gaoxu asked again.

Wang Zhenliang said: Now our father and son have stepped down and are idle at home.

It's okay.I took the liberty to invite you today, just wanting to hear the anecdotes and interesting stories of the Jianwen Dynasty and the officialdom.Can you tell me about it?Zhu Gaoxu smiled.

My foolish brother will definitely know everything and say everything.Wang Zhenliang bowed.

At this moment, Du Qianrui, wearing a light red silk skirt and a big red silk belt, walked in, holding a wooden plate with a pot of hot oysters with garlic oil, a thin-necked wine pot, two wine glasses, and two pairs of chopsticks. She gently put the things on several tables one by one, and then bent her knees and said, "Your Majesty, Wang Junshi, please use it slowly."

Wang Zhenliang turned his head to look at Du Qianrui, opened his mouth, pointed at her for a long time and couldn't tell her name. What's the name...

Little woman Du Qianrui.She whispered.

right!right!Wang Zhenliang looked at her, then turned to look at Zhu Gaoxu, and said with a smile, "Ha, King Gaoyang is really a person with temperament. How did he get the girls from Fuleyuan here too?"

It's a long story.Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said, but today our meeting was because of Xu Jiu, so naturally we must be old friends.Even if you meet by chance, you can meet again somewhere else after a few years. Isn’t it a different feeling?

Wang Zhenliang smiled and said: King Gaoyang is really a wonderful person!

Zhu Gaoxu thought to himself: I think your father is a wonderful person.

He said again, "Miss Du's oysters made by herself, I don't know if there is such a method at this time, nor do I know if it suits my cousin's taste."Taste first, and then talk about it!

King Gaoyang, please.Wang Zhenliang said.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said: They are all old friends, and it’s boring to always keep in mind the red tape, just be at will.
