When the Imperial Garrison left the Five Hundred Camp, the Cuzhi competition was still in full swing. The little emperor Zhu Houcong was reluctant to leave, but considering that if Yongfu and Yongchun returned to the palace too late, his mother might find out, so he had to set off early and leave.

The imperial guards and his party entered the city from Fuchengmen, and then went directly from the nearest Xibianmen to the palace. Xu Jin detoured along Beichang Street to return to the Xiaofang. As soon as the carriage entered the Xiaofang, they were blocked by more than a dozen imperial guards.

"Do you dare to ask if it's Jing Anbo in the car?" The leader of the imperial guard blocked the road and asked loudly.

Xu Jin lifted the curtain and looked out, and recognized it as the Yulin Guard's clothing. He couldn't help but frowned, got out of the carriage, and said indifferently: "I am Xu Jin. I wonder why this general blocked me?"

The leader of the imperial guard bowed to Xu Jin and said, "Transfer the Queen Mother's oral order, and Xu Jin, the uncle of Jing'an, immediately enter the palace. Lord Xu, please!"

Xu Jin's heart skipped a beat. Now the one who can call the queen mother in the palace is naturally the queen mother of the late emperor. This person suddenly summoned him into the palace. There will most likely be no good things. If it is broken, will the princess leave the city be exposed?

Xu Jin said calmly: "I just came back from outside the city. I was sweating profusely and had a disheveled appearance. I made a noble person abrupt. Can I let me go back to the house to change clothes and wash before entering the palace?"

Xu Jin's request was reasonable, but the imperial guard in the leader reiterated with a tense face: "No need, the Empress Dowager Jing'an Bo immediately entered the palace without any delay."

Xu Jin had no choice but to nod, and looked back at Xie Sanqiu who was rushing the car and said, "Sanqiu, go to the Military Affairs Bureau to notify Eunuch Lai that the emperor will go to the Military Affairs Bureau to learn about the progress of the development of the flintlock rifle tomorrow, and ask Eunuch Lai to prepare for reception. If there is any problem, you can go to the palace to discuss with Eunuch Bi of the Sili Supervisor."

"Okay, I'll go now!" Xie Sanqin turned his horse's head and left, and followed the original road back to Beichang Street.

The imperial guard in the leader hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not stop him. Although he suspected that Xu Jin was trying to send someone to inform him, he was worried that the emperor would really go to the military bureau tomorrow. In addition, Xu Jin was a popular celebrity favored by the emperor, so he didn't want to offend him too much. He stayed at the front line and met him in the future!

"Please please!" The leader of the imperial guard reached out and made a gesture of invitation.

Xu Jin nodded and walked, suddenly stopped and asked, "What do you call this general?"

The leader of the imperial guard raised his eyebrows. Although he did not want to offend Xu Jin too much, it did not mean that he was afraid of Xu Jin. When he saw Xu Jin asking about his name, he even thought that the other party would take revenge in the future. He said coldly: "Li Dai, a hundred households of the left guard in Yulin, is here."

Xu Jin chanted slowly: "How is the man of Dai Zong? Qi and Lu are still green. The creation is beautiful and the yin and yang are divided. Clouds are swaying in the chest, and the birds are coming back into the eyes. They will reach the top and overlook the small mountains."

Li Dai frowned and couldn't help asking, "How can you explain Jing'an Bo's poem?"

"How can I just solve it? I just want to delay the time." Xu Jin thought to himself, but he pretended to be a calm expression on his face and said calmly: "Dai is Mount Tai. The head of the five mountains is the place where emperors of all dynasties have been worshipped. It is not a good thing to have a big name, it will damage one's own blessings and longevity. Li Dai's name is very unlucky."

Li Dai's expression changed slightly. It turned out that this sour boy had just tried to harm him. He sneered slightly sarcastically: "It turns out that Jing Anbo still knows how to tell fortunes by word and fortune? As expected, he is knowledgeable and talented, and admires him!"

Xu Jin smiled and said, "I just said it casually, and Li Baihuquan just took it as a joke." After that, he continued to move forward.

Li Dai was unhappy and said to himself: "I want to see who is so unlucky today."

Xu Jin had nothing to say, so he rushed to the palace. Xie Sanqiang, the boy, drove his carriage and quickly came to the military battle. Fortunately, the eunuch Lai Yi did not have a foreign house in the capital, so he lived in the military battle.

Xu Jin often brought Xie Sangu to the military battle, so the guards guards at the gate recognized Xie Sangu and easily put him in.

After Xie Sanqian found Lai Yi, he said hurriedly: "My brother-in-law... Jing'an Bo was urgently summoned to the palace by the empress dowager. I was worried that Lai's father-in-law would immediately go to the palace to notify the emperor, and I was very grateful."

Xie Sanqin was very clever. Although Xu Jin's instructions were very obscure, he mentioned the words "enter the palace", "find", "emperor", etc., so the boy immediately understood and came to Lai Yi to enter the palace and upload a message to the emperor.

Eunuch Lai is a good-looking person. In addition, when he came to the palace, he would not harm him. Instead, he could sell Xu Jin a favor, so he agreed very readily.

In order to save time, Xie Sanliang used a carriage to pull Eunuch Lai to the nearby Xibianmen. The latter had a palace sign, so he successfully passed the palace gate and walked quickly to the Emperor's usual residence Yangxin Hall.

Besides, the little emperor Zhu Houcong returned to the Yangxin Palace. Under the service of the palace servants, he took a comfortable bath and changed into a regular household clothes. He was about to go out to Cining Palace to pay his respects to his mother. At this time, a small yellow gate came in to report: "Emperor, Eunuch Lai from the military battle is asking for a meeting outside the hall."

Zhu Houcon couldn't help but be surprised. Although he had been ascended for a year, he still couldn't recognize the eunuchs of the 4th Division of the 12th Supervision Bureau of the 8th Bureau of the Internal Office and had no impression of Lai Yi. However, considering that the military bureau was making flintlock rifles recently, it was just right to understand the situation, so he ordered: "Take him to see me."

Soon, Lai Yi was brought in, knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, "I'm going to see the emperor."

Zhu Houcan looked at the ordinary-looking Eunuch Lai and said, "Get up, why do you come to see me?"

Lai Yi smiled flatteringly and said, "Go back to the emperor, Jing'an Bo was summoned to the palace by the empress dowager not long ago, and sent someone to let his slaves enter the palace to notify the emperor."

Zhu Hou was stunned for a moment, continued to change his expression slightly, and shouted loudly: "Come here, let's go to the Shoukang Palace!" After that, he hurried out.

Lai Yi couldn't help but sigh secretly, saying that Jing'an Bo is deeply favored by the emperor, and Jian seems to be true in the heart of the emperor. However, this time Jing'an Bo was summoned by the empress dowager, I'm afraid there will be a big trouble, otherwise I wouldn't have asked the emperor for help.

…………

At this time, Xu Jin finally followed Li Dai and others to the Shoukang Palace. Looking at the two rows of Yu Linwei with bad expressions in front of the palace gate, his uneasiness became even more uneasy. He subconsciously looked back and looked back, hoping that my brother-in-law would be smart, otherwise he would have suffered a lot today.

"Brother Jing'an, go in!" Li Dai urged with a sneer. Xu Jin was slowing down along the way, which made him very upset.

Xu Jin had no choice but to bite the bullet and walked into Shoukang Palace, followed Li Dai to a hall. When he saw the scene in front of him, his heart couldn't help but sank slightly.

Empress Dowager Zhang sat upright in the middle of the hall with a cold face. Zhang Heling, Marquis of Shouning and Zhang Yanling, Marquis of Jianchang, stood on the left hand with a playful look, while Yang Tinghe, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and Mao Cheng, the Minister of Rites, stood on the right hand with a heavy face. The former face was as deep as water, while the latter was angry.
