Chapter 31 Confrontation

boom!

Zhu Youxiao staggered as if he had been struck by lightning, and fell directly into the tub. Large areas of black concoction were splashed and spilled outside the tub.

"Master, Master, don't worry!" Wang Chengen was startled, and he struggled with a cry in his voice, rushing towards him.

"This is impossible, how is this possible?" Zhu Youxiao's lips trembled as he kept thinking about the possibility. Seeing that the young master was fine, Wang Chengen breathed a sigh of relief, and then he and the maid waiting beside him helped him up and put on his clothes.

.

Zhu Youxiao's body was limp, with no strength at all, allowing the two of them to move. The way he looked at this moment, he could not see the energetic and fierce posture of the past. He was completely a sad child who had lost his parents.

Two lines of clear tears flowed from the corners of Zhu Youxiao's eyes. He had no doubt about the authenticity of the news. Wang Chengen did not dare to talk nonsense about such a big matter. He must have been sure before he came back to report it.

So as soon as he heard the news, he felt like a thunderbolt struck him, and he was completely confused. Every scene he had spent with Mr. Wang in the past eight years appeared in his mind.

When she was just born, her face was pale and worried; when she teased him, her face was full of joy and pride; when she was intimate with him, her face was kind and kind; when her brother died, her face was sad but pretended to be happy, just for the sake of him.

Don't let him worry; when Xili wanted to reprimand him, she stood up for him; when he tried to quell rumors for him, she had a cold and firm face and directly killed the rumor maker with a stick.

All these things made Zhu Youxiao suddenly realize that Mrs. Wang was actually protecting him in her own way and acting as his protective umbrella. If it weren't for such a shrewd mother, he would not have lived in Ciqing Palace.

Life will not be so comfortable anymore, and you can do whatever you want.

The Wang family supports whatever he does, even if he wants to practice martial arts, everyone is against it, and only the Wang family supports him.

Gradually, the resistance in his heart towards having such a mother who was about the same age as him in his previous life slowly disappeared, and was replaced by admiration. Mrs. Wang, and deep down in his heart, the simple and dutiful rural woman

The figures slowly merged together.

"Mom~" Zhu Youxiao called affectionately.

Time passed bit by bit, and when Zhu Youxiao came back to his senses, he found that his face had already burst into tears, and a large piece of his clothes on his chest was wet.

Looking around again, the eunuchs and maidens all changed into plain clothes and wore a piece of white cloth on their right elbows. Even the palace lanterns and candles placed everywhere were changed to white. There was not a single thing visible in the entire palace.

Bright objects.

The only people waiting beside him were Hakka, Wang Chengen and another middle-aged eunuch, who was Zhu Youxiao's new record officer. This eunuch was called Liu Shimin. His writing skills were better than Cao Huachun's, and he was also knowledgeable and clever.

The convenience made Zhu Youxiao very satisfied, but he felt that the name Liu Shimin was a bit familiar, but he could not recall the specific deeds. He was probably a great eunuch who left his name in history.

As for Wei Zhongxian, he went to direct the eunuchs to arrange the etiquette of wearing Xiao.

"Cheng'en, put on mourning for me!" After a moment of silence, Zhu Youxiao said in a hoarse voice. As soon as the words came out, even he was a little surprised.

The people waiting around were also startled. Liu Shimin was the first to react and knelt on the ground, looking like he was admonishing: "Your Highness comes out with the Constitution in his mouth. He is responsible for the destiny and is connected with all the people. Please show your condolences and comply with the changes.

Don’t let down the expectations of the common people in the world.”

As soon as Liu Shimin's words came out, Wang Chengen's expression immediately changed, and he even cursed in his heart: "Where did this turtle come from? He is so good at flattering."

Zhu Youxiao didn't think anything of it, but Liu Shimin's words reminded him that as a dignified time traveler, with the hope of saving the Han family's reputation, he shouldn't be so heroic and short-tempered. He should cheer up, and more importantly,

Find out the real culprit behind the scenes.

He didn't believe that Wang Cairen would die of a sudden illness, even if he was fine, he didn't even believe the cause of Liu Shuren's death!

Soon, under the service of the palace maid, Zhu Youxiao changed into the white linen mourning clothes. The heavy linen clothes were put on him, giving him a solemn and heavy feeling. The dagger given to him by Concubine Wang Gong, or

It was said to be a dagger, but it was hidden in his arms.

After getting ready, he set off. As soon as he left his own small independent courtyard, Zhu Youxiao saw that the entire Ciqing Palace was filled with white objects, palace lanterns, clothing, and curtains, all of which were replaced with white.

Wang's coffin stayed in the palace where he lived, waiting for the funeral. Zhu Youxiao was familiar with the route there, and he arrived quickly.

The coffin stayed in the main hall, and Zhu Youxiao saw it at a glance when he came in. But what was strange was that Wang's coffin had been nailed tightly and could not be removed at all. Seeing this, he became even more

Having firmly believed in the judgment in his heart, Wang was killed, just like in history.

Looking at the huge coffin that was erected, Zhu Youxiao muttered in a low voice with a face full of grief: "Mother, I'm offended." After apologizing to the ghost of the Wang family, he turned around and faced himself.

The eunuchs they brought shouted loudly:

"Open the coffin and conduct an autopsy!"

Zhu Youxiao's words blew through everyone's hearts like a cold wind, making them tremble slightly. Their quick reactions seemed to have thought of something. They raised their heads, widened their eyes, and looked at him stupidly.

"Open the coffin and conduct an autopsy!"

Zhu Youxiao yelled again before everyone woke up from a dream. Under the command of Wei Zhongxian and Wang Chengen, the eunuchs moved in batches to look for tools and prepare to open the coffin.

With more people and greater strength, the tools were quickly found. Each eunuch climbed up and prepared to open the coffin. But at this moment, a voice stopped their movements.

"You school, why are you messing around here? Why don't you come down quickly?" But it was the prince Zhu Changluo who arrived.

Zhu Youxiao turned around and looked coldly at the cheap father in front of him. His arrival in such a timely manner made him suspect that Wang's death had something to do with him.

"Your Highness, the overall situation is of paramount importance. I hope that Your Highness will act with caution." Wang An also rushed over from behind to persuade him.

After that, another group of people crowded over, including Xi Li, Dong Li, and other concubines. The Crown Princess Guo who came out and could not sleep on her bed, and Zhu Changluo's harem all rushed over. Among the crowd, he even vaguely saw Cao Huachun.

However, Zhu Youxiao had no time to pay attention to this betrayer at this moment.

Although there were many people present, the only ones who were qualified to stand in front and confront Zhu Youxiao were Zhu Changluo and Xi Li, well, and Wang An, who was considered half of them. The others could only stand at the back and quietly

Watching and waiting for the development of the situation.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, is there something fishy about my mother's death?" Although there were many people on the opposite side, Zhu Youxiao was not a real child, so how could he be afraid? He took a step forward, raised his little face, and asked sternly.

His tone was sharp and strong, his momentum was fierce and compelling, and his voice was like a bell, echoing faintly in the palace, making everyone present's expressions change and their hearts tremble.

They discovered for the first time that although the real dragon is small, it should not be insulted. Although Zhu Youxiao's younger brothers and sisters are not sensible yet, they can feel the atmosphere in the field, and his words will make everyone present lustful.

They all looked at this brother with admiration and admiration who they had never been close to before.

The image of Zhu Youxiao at this moment was extremely tall in their hearts, as majestic as a god.

Zhu Changluo, who was facing him, was even more breathless. He turned away subconsciously, not daring to meet his sharp eyes. But fortunately, he woke up and realized that this was inappropriate, so he saved him and said: "You slaves, why don't you meet him?"

If you don’t come down quickly, do you want to eat something wrong?”

Let Zhu Changluo

If I don’t dare to reprimand my son, why don’t I dare to reprimand these slaves?

The most embarrassing thing was the eunuchs who were preparing to open the coffin. It was either up or down at this moment or in the evening. In the end, Wei Zhongxian looked at Zhu Youxiao's face and ordered: "Everyone, come down.

.”

After the stairs were reached, the eunuchs rolled down in pee and stood quietly, not daring to make a sound.

"Your Majesty the Emperor hasn't answered your question yet?" Zhu Youxiao acquiesced to this action, but took another step forward and continued to ask. His small body, but majestic, seemed to be carrying the force of wind and thunder, rushing toward his face.

, making Zhu Changluo almost breathless.

In desperation, he had no choice but to turn around and ask Wang An next to him for help. The three of them had already discussed it last night, and Wang An would come forward to persuade Zhu Youxiao. Zhu Youxiao still respected Wang An, an old eunuch.

Seeing the way Chitose wanted to take a step back but was afraid to do so because of his face, Wang An gave a helpless smile and had no choice but to take on this hard task.

"I just hope that the young master will be asked to settle accounts with the old slave Qiu Qiu in the future." With a sigh, Wang An walked forward, leaned over and put his ear to Zhu Youxiao's ear, and whispered: "Your Highness, do you want to get a big position?"

Wang An knew Zhu Youxiao much better than Zhu Changluo. He knew deeply how smart this third-generation successor was. Therefore, he did not adopt the rhetoric discussed last night, but used his own method.

I believe that I will definitely understand.

As expected, after hearing these words, Zhu Youxiao's eyes widened instantly, and his eyes were full of disbelief. Wang An's words made him confirm that Wang's death was definitely related to Zhu Changluo.

Before Zhu Youxiao could get angry, Wang An immediately said his second sentence: "In my dynasty, I have never heard of a prince not ascending the throne and a great grandson inheriting the great treasure."

This is a naked relationship of interest, but Wang An believes that the young master will understand what he means.

Zhu Youxiao did understand. Wang An's words reminded him of the two most famous grandsons of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen and Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji.

Both are grandsons, but their results are completely different.

This sentence caused him to fall into deep contemplation. The air in the palace seemed to be solid, making people feel suffocated. Zhu Changluo and Xili both smiled bitterly in their hearts. They could no longer easily deal with Zhu Youxiao's thoughts last night.

.

Zhu Changluo was a little better. His father's dignity supported him and allowed him to carry him down. Xi Li was unbearable. If it weren't for the support of the eunuch next to her, she wouldn't be able to stand at all. Zhu Youxiao's fierce momentum frightened her inexplicably.

I couldn't say a word from beginning to end.

"It's not unreasonable for Cao Huachun, an old guy, to value this little bastard so much."

"Let's go!" After pondering for a long time, Zhu Youxiao finally resisted the thought of getting to the bottom of it, uttered one word harshly, and took the people away.

His opening was like a mechanism, causing the almost solid atmosphere to instantly shatter. The main hall was filled with the sound of heavy breathing. Although they themselves didn't know why they were so nervous, they just didn't dare to speak or dare to speak.

pant.

A conflict was easily resolved with Wang An's two words. Wang An's outstanding performance made Zhu Changluo rely more on him, but it also made some people remember him, such as Cao Huachun and Wei Zhongxian.

Ambitious people generally see farther ahead, especially those who threaten them, and can detect them early.
