"Who..." Tan You made a sound with difficulty, and found that his throat was hoarse due to convulsions, and the cold thing pressed against his neck, frivolously flicking.

A cold rusty smell came to his mouth and nose, and Qin You trembled, almost fainting.

"Wait," a ray of bright light suddenly broke into the dark corridor, swaying from far to near, "Godfather ordered, don't hurt anyone's life."

The man with a gentle voice came gradually from the shadows, with red arrow sleeves, a red gauze inlaid with gold was tied on his forehead to wipe his forehead, and there was a sophisticated temperament in the young boy's face.

This is also a eunuch.

Yuan Junyu frowned, looking at the visitor as if facing a formidable enemy.The distance between him and Qin You is only a few feet, and it is impossible to predict when the sword will be on his neck.

Unexpectedly, the little eunuch stood still, lifted his robe with both hands, and knelt down in front of him with 12 respects: "Your Highness, did this thief hurt your body?"

As soon as the boy knelt down, there was a swishing sound behind him. Yuan Junyu raised his eyes in horror, only to find that under the beating of the torch, there were densely packed behind him, all of them were elite soldiers in armor.

So many people entered the dark room, it was so ignorant.

Yuan Junyu was quite unexpected, and immediately after, he was stabilized by two soldiers with crossed swords coming from left and right, and the iron chain on his ankle was snapped open, Yuan Junyu stretched his legs and listened to the young eunuch continue to say : "We were outside just now and subdued a group of accomplices. You might as well follow me to identify them."

Although Tan You, who was restrained by the side, was unconscious, he also heard a few words, and his face became even more ashen.He wondered why he didn't see Chang Xi's people to open the door, but he was restrained by these people and couldn't escape.In desperation, he rolled his eyes upwards, twitched slightly and held his breath.

"Your Majesty, please go out with your servant." The eunuch smiled slightly and bowed as a gesture of invitation.

Yuan Junyu immediately took a step, but lingered for a moment: "Wait a minute, you..."

"My lord, please speak."

"When you came in..." Yuan Junyu stared at the iron chain that was thrown to the corner, and the torch flame moved like a ghost, "I heard you say godfather."

The young man smiled brightly, and said with a slick face: "That's Eunuch Cui from the palace, the Bingbi next to the Long Live Lord, and the celebrity near the ancestors. Our filial sons and grandchildren, the most powerful godfather is our Nanjing's defense officer. You have to call him 'Third Brother' too!"

He showed his identity, and held up the dental plaque hanging on his waist: "Your servant's name is Cui Zhu, my son, please take a look."

No need to read, Yuan Junyu knew the word "Cui" in his heart. He knew it when he was an envoy in the Beijing faction to pay tribute. The two factions are secretly competing, and sooner or later, one will run out of the other.

At present, a cannon surnamed Cui fell from the sky and squeezed out the horse surnamed Chang, and a large number of pawns also rushed to the door. What else is there to choose? Yuan Junyu glanced at Qin You, that rich man The robe was stained with dust, and the people were tied up like pigs and dogs. They were detained there because they were almost unconscious. Two soldiers squatted beside him, one slapped his face, and the other pinched him. among people.

This is not a big deal, Qin You closed his eyes tightly and never woke up.

Now that the general situation is settled, Yuan Junyu turned to Cui Zhu and said, "Please help me, let's go."

Cui Zhu nodded slightly, raised his chin to the soldiers he brought, and the densely packed soldiers in the aisle lined up to give way. The young man raised his hand again, signaling them to take Qin You, and then followed Yuan Junyu out first. door to go.

Out of the dark room, there are soldiers outside, it doesn't look like those who forced the conscripts to cheat their wages, all of them are dispatched elite soldiers, their expressions are cold and gloomy, with a kind of chilling ruthlessness.

After staying in the dark room for a long time, Yuan Junyu's footsteps were a little unsteady, and he quietly supported the wall on one side: "Eunuch Cui ordered you..."

Cui Zhu didn't tire of his troubles: "It was Eunuch Cui who found out the whereabouts of the son, and he heard that the son was trapped by villains, so he urgently ordered the servants to lead troops to rescue him."

Yuan Junyu was thoughtful, and when he walked out of the door that concealed the mystery, he bumped into an anxious person head-on.

"Ah! Your Royal Highness!"

With another high-pitched voice, Yuan Junyu suddenly fell into the crowd of eunuchs, his sleeves were pulled, and someone came over on his knees, crying, but was blocked by the young man.

"Uncle Wu, it's a coincidence." Cui Zhu took a step forward, pushed the weeping strange eunuch away first, and then greeted the man behind with a smile: "After my godfather returned to Beijing, he kept talking to me about it." Where are you?"

Chang Xi also came here with soldiers, all in bright red armor, with embroidered spring knives on their waists, and the steel sheaths glistening black, as soon as the soldiers on both sides touched each other, sparks would be wiped out, and there would be a loud explosion.Chang Xi gritted his teeth, not to lose in front of this young man: "Nephew, why, you also came to rescue the Shizi? Then you have detained the wrong person!" He pointed to the gangsters who were tied up not far away: "All It's uncle's confidant, untie them quickly!"

He used the word "also" very cleverly, as if Chang Xi was the first loyal servant who got the news, this Cui Xiang's godson, just came here to pick up the water.

After hearing this, Cui Zhu smiled, raised his hand, and moved his index finger slowly, and the guard over there relaxed the rope leisurely. "Uncle Wu, I want to clarify with you." He moved his finger again, and asked someone to drag the fainted Tan You over, pointing at him: "This person pretends to be a descendant of Uncle Loyalty, but Uncle Wu Treat him as a wishful treasure of gold and silver? Didn't check it out beforehand!"

Yuan Junyu heard that there was something in his words, and knew that they were here to expose Chang Xi's background, and turned to look at Chang Xi, who was even more angry: "What my nephew said is true, uncle is deceived! Just now As soon as the truth is found out, I will bring someone to the rescue, whether it is you who say, even if I am the only one present, I will kill this person!"

After finishing speaking, he called two Jin Yiwei, cast a sideways glance, and drew out his saber.

"Uncle, slow down!" Cui Zhu raised his hand and yelled, "Although this person has committed a heinous crime, he still has to wait for the elder son to punish him. Uncle's move is really taking away the power!"

Just now outside, the two teams were about to fight. It was a coincidence that Yuan Junyu came out from the dark room at this time and stopped the momentum in time.But at this time, the smell of gunpowder loomed again.

Seeing that the fire was about to burn himself, Yuan Junyu looked away and pointed to the unconscious Tan You: "Take this person back to guard first." He turned his head again, "Chang Dugong."

Chang Xi stepped forward eagerly: "Don't dare!"

Yuan Junyu smiled faintly: "You go back, I'll leave this little Eunuch Cui to watch over the bandits tonight, and at dawn tomorrow, I will hand it over to Yingtian Fu Yin."

Chang Xi was taken aback.

It has to be said that Yuan Junyu did have the bearing of a nobleman at this time, calm and breezy, and frightened the little eunuchs below who were trying to surround him, and each looked at his master , I don't know what to do.

"Okay, the prince is really generous." Cui Zhu clapped his hands, "It's time to rest after all the trouble this night! The servant has booked an inn in the Confucius Temple. If the prince wants to stay, he can go there. After all, it's not a palace. There are not so many frames, why don't we just seek comfort when we walk outside?"

This was asking Yuan Junyu clearly where he was standing.Chang Xi gritted his teeth: "Your Highness, after all, the inn often has rough people coming and going, so it can't compare to my other hotel, not to mention that my nephew has just arrived in Jinling, so how do you know the local conditions and customs of Jinling?" Cui Zhu came over, "Nephew, think about it, the inn is full of people and dirty, uncle's garden is much more interesting."

Cui Zhu was slender and slender, as if he was being held hostage by Chang Xi, when the soldiers who followed him saw him, their chests and backs were already puffing up secretly, showing a posture of protecting the lord ready to go.

The two eunuchs confronted each other, and the atmosphere was deadlocked.Yuan Junyu was not in a hurry, stretched out his hand to release Cui Zhu, and then patted Chang Xi on the shoulder: "Okay, you two are tired tonight, I won't bother you, just follow the usual practice and go to the Guild Hall in Nanjing to stay." .”
