Chapter 1036 The Zhou sisters enter the palace

Five family members, including Yang Shiquan and Zhou Gong, were implicated by Lin Zhennan and were taken into Jinyiwei.

Sisters Zhou Miaoxuan and Zhou Miaotong, together with their father Xuxian and several concubines, were all locked in the same cell.

After the concubines entered the cell, they kept crying and crying. Thirteen-year-old Zhou Miaotong's face turned pale with fright. He hugged his sister's slim waist tightly and kept murmuring:

"Sister, I don't want to go to Jiaofangsi, I don't want to go to Jiaofangsi..."

"Don't worry, we won't go!"

Zhou Miaoxuan was only fifteen years old. She was also panicked and wanted to find someone to comfort herself.

However, looking at the dark and damp cell, the two sisters could only cling to each other at this moment.

On the contrary, Zhou Gong's Xu Xian was so dizzy from the noise that he couldn't help shouting:

"Shut up, everyone! You may die, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

This Mrs. Zhou was only in her twenties, ten years older than Zhou Miaoxuan, and she was in her prime. At this moment, she turned into a female tiger and suppressed several concubines.

Without the sound of concubine Ji's crying, Zhou Miaotong was frightened and soon fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took.

"It's time to eat!"

The strong female prison guard brought in a bucket of gruel that looked like swill, and seven or eight dark steamed buns.

Zhou Miaotong, who was awakened, looked over and almost choked out:

"Sister, I don't want to eat these."

"I don't want to eat it either!"

Zhou Miaoxuan hugged his sister and retreated towards the wall.

The concubines looked at each other and saw that Mrs. Zhou and the two young ladies had no intention of taking action. They themselves were not ready to drink the swill-like porridge, but they were afraid that they would really have nothing to eat, so they each picked up the wowotou to eat. Keep it in your arms just in case you need it.

Obviously, these concubines had already tasted hunger before entering the Zhou family.

Seeing that Mrs. Zhou and the two daughters of the Zhou family refused to eat, the female cell leader didn't bother to persuade her, so she immediately carried the 'swill bucket' and the cornbread and headed to the next cell.

In her opinion, the wives and daughters of high-ranking officials are all very pretentious.

After being hungry for a few days, they will accept their fate.

Of course, even if she was starving to death, she wouldn't care about her.

Just when the female cell leader had delivered dinner to all the cells and was about to lock the door and leave.

The prison chief of the imperial edict walked in with Xiaoqi, a member of the Imperial Guard:

"Let the female relatives of the Yang family, Zhou family...the five families go out. Your Majesty is kind and has forgiven the sins of the five families!"

The female prison chief was a little surprised.

After all, this is Jinyiwei's imperial prison. How can there be any reason to just lock him in during the day and let him out at night?

However, she recognized that the guard Xiaoqi was a close aide of the commander Luo Sigong, so she did not doubt that he was falsely conveying the decree, so she quickly opened the lock and sent the five female family members out.

Sisters Zhou Miaoxuan and Zhou Miaotong's one-day trip to prison ended here.

After the female relatives of the five families left the prison, they saw at the gate of the prison the five adults who had been arrested during the day, and the men of the five families.

Among them, Zhou Gong and Zhou Qing, the eldest brother of sisters Zhou Miaoxuan, were standing at the gate of the prison, waiting for everyone.

"Let's go home first!"

Zhou Gong didn't say much, and didn't let his wife and daughter speak. He bowed his hands to his four colleagues and left.

The five people roaring in the lobby today are definitely committing a crime of disrespect.

According to the law, even if the nine clans are not implicated and the crime is reduced by one level, the three clans will be implicated.

However, the emperor let the five families go.

This makes people feel incredible.

Zhou Gong couldn't guess the cause and effect, but he also knew that if he didn't want his family to suffer, he should keep his mouth shut.

After returning home, Zhou Gong discovered that the servants, maids, furniture, and livestock had all been returned.

The gold and silver jewelry that was confiscated has not been returned.

However, these things are not important anymore.

After entering the house, the servants and maids lit the oil lamps and candles.

At this time, everyone discovered that Zhou Gong's face was not only red and swollen, but also had blood scabs on his legs, which clearly indicated that he had been tortured:

"Master, you have been wronged!"

"It's okay, it's okay, are you okay?"

Zhou Gong was very strong-willed. Before going to court, he had already prepared himself for the risk of being exterminated by the nine tribes.

Now I just received a beating, which is nothing to cry about.

"Dad, we are all fine! Mother, please take dad to apply some wound medicine!"

Zhou Miaoxuan felt sorry for his father, so he quickly asked someone to get the golden sore medicine, and asked his mistress and several concubines to help his father apply the medicine.

This night.

The five families did not sleep peacefully.

On the second day.

A eunuch from the palace delivered the order.

Only then did Zhou Gong know that it was Queen Zhu Xuan who asked for favors from the five families, thus sparing them from prison.

However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be forgiven.

After all, Yang Shiquan and Zhou Gong committed the crime of disrespect, so they were demoted to work as officials in the mines.

When Zhou Gong arrived at this time, he didn't hold back anymore and readily accepted the imperial edict and prepared to "go to his post."

"Master Zhou, wait!"

The eunuch who announced the edict was about to remove the incense table when Zhou Gong received the edict, and quickly stopped him:

"We also have a copy of the imperial edict issued by the Queen!"

When Zhou Gong heard that it was the empress Yi who had saved his family, he quickly knelt down again to receive the order.

The eunuch talked a lot more eloquently, and his purpose was nothing more than to persuade Zhou Gong to be diligent in the king's affairs and not to follow others' opinions or do any treasonous and unethical things.

At the end of the story, things take a turn for the worse.

The queen brought the topic to Zhou Gong's two daughters.

First, he praised Zhou Miaoxuan for his brilliant literary talent and his talent was not inferior to Li Qingzhao of the Northern Song Dynasty. Then he praised Zhou Miaotong for being virtuous and virtuous. Finally, he said that he wanted to recruit Sister Zhou Miaoxuan to be a female official in Kunning Palace.

My dear, there will be more after this chapter, please click on the next page to continue, there will be more exciting things to come!

The Zhou family was from a scholarly family and did not want their daughter to enter the palace and become a female official.

However, the queen had just saved her family, and Zhou Gong could not say anything against it no matter what.

Seeing that Zhou Gong accepted Yi's order, the eunuch left with a smile.

Outsiders don't know why, but the eunuch who delivered the order was reminded by the chief eunuch Wang An.

On this day, I had some plans for the two daughters of the Zhou family, but I couldn't take action directly, so I had to accept the empress's name and declare the two girls into the palace.

When the two women enter Kunning Palace, no matter what the emperor wants to do, the two women will naturally have no room to resist.

It has to be said that the emperor took action and the clouds and mountains were shrouded in fog. If no one broke through, others would really not be able to see the slightest clue.

The eunuch returned to the palace to return the order.

Su Mingzhe learned that there was no accident, and at noon, he came to Kunning Palace to thank Queen Zhu Xuan for her cooperation.

After Zhu Xuan heard the man thanking him, he stroked his already erect belly with one hand, held the man's hand with the other, and said with a smile:

"For these Zhou sisters to be so valued by His Majesty, they must be extremely beautiful. When they enter the Kunning Palace, I will take a good look at them."

"I don't think I will disappoint the queen!"

Su Mingzhe and Zhu Xuan had been married for ten years, although there was a gap between them because of the conspiracy to usurp the throne.

However, Su Mingzhe made their eldest son Su Xi the crown prince, and in the entire harem, only Zhu Xuan was pregnant, and the other concubines had no heirs.

From this point of view, even if Su Xi made a mistake and lost the position of prince, the master of the East Palace would definitely still be in Kunning Palace.

Of course.

Judging from the current situation, Su Xi has been fully trained by Su Mingzhe and has even begun to learn to handle government affairs.

Therefore, Zhu Xuan doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

In general, Su Mingzhe proved with his actions that in the end, the future emperor of Dazheng will still have the blood of the Zhu family.

For Zhu Xuan, this is enough.
