Gao Chi of the Ming River

Nanjing, the imperial city.

Zhu Yunwen glared at the man kneeling on the ground, "Huang Zicheng!! You are so brave! How dare you murder the prince?!"

With a calm face, Huang Zicheng kowtowed respectfully and said, "Your Highness, calm down! I did not murder the prince..."

Zhu Yunwen was taken aback for a moment, and then he sneered, "No?!" Then he slapped the arm of the chair beside him angrily and stood up, laughing angrily, "Didn't you send those assassins?! Wasn't it your people who burned the post?! Huang Zicheng! You Think I'm a fool?"

"No! That's not what I mean! Your Highness! What I mean is...that I didn't intend to murder the prince, I...just wanted to let His Highness see...the real strength of King Yan!" Huang Zicheng said slowly. , raised his head to look at the stunned Zhu Yunwen, with a solemn expression, "His Royal Highness, I started to set up at the post station, and when the son disappeared, it took only three hours for the King of Yan to arrive! And according to the spies in Jinyi left by the former emperor It is said that before King Yan arrived, there were people who were like dead men to protect the prince, and after that, the eunuch named Ma Sanbao who was next to the prince unexpectedly protected the prince with powerful martial arts!! After that, King Yan arrived , there were many spies cleaning the scene, and even the spies in the brocade clothes left by the former emperor did not dare to approach..."

"Your Highness! Although I am very jealous of King Yan's son in my heart! But I have no intention of murdering the prince. I just want to take this opportunity to let Your Highness see how strong King Yan is!" Huang Zicheng said solemnly, cupping his hands. "Your Highness! We can no longer appease King Yan!"

Zhu Yunwen took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and smiled wryly in his heart, how strong is the fourth uncle?How could he not know?He always knew...but now, after hearing what Huang Zicheng said, he... still underestimated his good fourth uncle!

Arrive in three hours?

Does Nanjing have eyeliner, and is it eyeliner beside them?

Knowing Huang Zicheng's actions and notifying King Yan in advance?

A protector like a dead man?Is that the secret power of King Yan?

And spies?

Zhu Yunwen's heart sank continuously, it seems...he really underestimated his good fourth uncle!

Slowly opening his eyes, staring at Huang Zicheng, Zhu Yunwen said in a deep voice, "Anyway, it's too risky for you to act like this!"

Huang Zicheng was taken aback, then bowed his head and said respectfully, "Your Highness is right, it is indeed too risky for me to act like this, but... I think it is worth it!"

Huang Zicheng suddenly raised his head, "If not! How could Your Highness see the current situation clearly! Your Highness! The feudal lord has become an unstoppable force! King Yan is even more ambitious! Your Highness must take action!"

So... what can he do?

Some things can't be forced, can't be entered, and can only be endured!

Zhu Yunqi got up slowly, looked at the bright moon outside the hall, and said slowly, "I have thought in my heart, Zicheng, you step back!"

Huang Zicheng was startled, and was about to speak eagerly, but Zhu Yunqi turned his back.

Huang Zicheng had no choice but to back down.

*************

At this time, Fangfu in Nanjing.

"Huang Zicheng is really stupid!" Fang Xiaoru said angrily.

"Brother Fang, calm down! Don't speak too loudly, I'm just telling you about this." Zhang Shi hurriedly opened his mouth, looked outside worriedly, and heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was there. He turned his head and smiled wryly, " Brother Fang...Although Huang Zicheng acted impulsively, it is not without deep meaning!"

"What's the deep meaning?! It's his deep meaning to anger King Yan?!" Fang Xiaoru was pacing restlessly in the room while talking.

"At least...we know that there is King Yan's eyeliner in Nanjing!"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?!" Fang Xiaoru paused and sneered, "Which vassal king doesn't have his own eyeliner?!"

Zhang Shi slowly shook his head, "To be able to arrive so quickly... this is no ordinary eyeliner!"

Fang Xiaoru frowned, looked at Zhang Shi, and smiled mockingly, "If King Yan doesn't have such ability, then he wouldn't be King Yan!"

Zhang Shi looked at Fang Xiaoru and said seriously, "Anyway! Now it seems that cutting down the feudal clan is imperative!"

"If Huang Zicheng hadn't acted like this, then we would still have room to linger in cutting down the feudal clan, but now it seems! I'm afraid..." Fang Xiaoru's face darkened.

Zhang Shi just sighed, "Even if Huang Zicheng didn't mess around, brother Fang, do you think a dispute between King Yan and the grandson of the emperor can be avoided?"

"Hmph! Isn't that a joke?! Since ancient times, how could the side of the couch be coveted by others?!"

Zhang Shi was silent for a while, then turned his head to look at the moonlight outside the window, with a bitter expression, "It's my little girl who melts the moon..."

Fang Xiaoru was taken aback for a moment, then fell silent.

**********

At the same time, in Beiping, Yanwang Mansion...

Zhang Rongyue stood in the courtyard, staring blankly at the bright moon in the sky.

When Mrs. Xu came in, she saw the sadness in Zhang Rongyue's brows and her absent-minded appearance, and couldn't help sighing slightly.

Thinking of the handwritten letter from Zhu Di just received, Xu suppressed the sigh in her heart, and slowly walked towards Zhang Rongyue.

"Miss Zhang..." Mrs. Xu said softly.

Zhang Rongyue came back to her senses, and hurriedly bent down to salute respectfully, "Rongyue has seen the princess."

"Miss Zhang is very polite." Xu smiled, glanced at the clothes on Zhang Rongyue, frowned, "Why doesn't Miss Zhang add more clothes? It's windy at night, don't catch a cold!" Turning to look at The servant girl bowed her head and said sternly, "But these tricky slaves are lazy?!"

The servant girls who bowed their heads were all startled, and all knelt down on the ground.

Zhang Rongyue hurriedly said, "Princess, this is because of Rongyue herself, it has nothing to do with them..."

Xu pretended to be angry, "Miss Zhang, you are kind-hearted, hey, these slaves and servants just look at the master's kindness to fool you!"

Zhang Rongyue just smiled lightly, lowered her head and said softly, "The princess loves Rongyue, this is Rongyue's blessing."

Mrs. Xu smiled slightly, and patted Zhang Rongyue's hand, "Miss Zhang is a blessing at first glance, so don't be hurt by the moon, it will hurt your body...Miss Zhang looks like that just now, but she is homesick ?”

Zhang Rongyue was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly after being silent for a while.

Mrs. Xu sighed softly, and said softly, "Maybe after a while, Ms. Zhang will be able to go home."

Zhang Rongyue was startled, and then hurriedly asked, "But what did Rongyue do wrong? Or... the prince despises Rongyue?" Zhang Rongyue's voice trembled slightly with fear.

Mrs. Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then hurriedly comforted her with a forced smile, "How could it be? Miss Rong Yue, don't think too much..."

Only then did Zhang Rongyue breathe a sigh of relief, her face flushed, she lowered her head, and said, "Princess, Rongyue is just..."

Xu smiled, patted Zhang Rongyue's hand and said, "I understand, Miss Rongyue can stay here with peace of mind."

Zhang Rongyue smiled shyly.

After saying a few more words, Mrs. Xu turned around and left the small courtyard.

As soon as Mrs. Xu left, Zhang Rongyue put away the shy smile on her face and looked calm. Just now... what did the concubine say to go home?What means?

Where is the son?Why has there been no news about the son recently? ?

Prince... Didn't he leave from Nanjing?

Why...haven't arrived in Peiping yet?How is your son?Are you... injured?

And... what about King Yan?The Songzhuyuan is so strictly guarded... No news has been revealed... I want to visit the King of Yan, but I am always declined repeatedly...

As for Mrs. Xu, after leaving the small courtyard, she lowered her face, summoned the servants outside the small courtyard, and ordered in a low voice, "Keep an eye on the courtyard, and write down anyone who approaches!"

"Yes!"

After finishing the order, Mrs. Xu looked back at the small yard, and the letter from the prince flashed across her mind again...

"Chi'er was assassinated, but fortunately he was unharmed. Zhang Nu has sinister intentions, so be on guard!"

Xu's heart was worried, the prince left Peiping overnight just for Chi'er, does Chi'er really matter?Although there is no problem, but... the prince's letter did not mention when he would return to Peiping..., it must be that Chi'er was injured!

Chi'er's injury doesn't matter, right?

************

At this time, Zhu Gaochi...

Sitting on the bed, looking at the letter in hand.

It turned out that the letter from the second uncle was actually a letter from his father.

Very short, each letter has only a few words.

But it was... It made Zhu Gaochi's heart sour, but also a little warm.

"The prince doesn't like bitter melon."

"My son likes braised pork, get more."

"...The prince likes bamboo chopsticks when he eats!"

"For Shizi's dim sum, you must buy Nanjing Qianjie Old Chen's Dim Sum Restaurant!!...there is clean..."

"One servant girl is enough! More servants!"

"My son likes to be quiet, those idlers should stay away from the son's yard!"

"The prince's clothes are made of cotton fabric! Make it thicker! The prince doesn't like to wear too much! The fabric of each piece of clothing should be thicker!"

"The prince's tea is made of Dahongpao."

……

"Father...really..." Zhu Gaochi stared at the letter and muttered in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid of embarrassment?"
