Seven hundred and twentieth eight chapters know fraud
Although Xiao Cheng was not a professional about pretending to be a ghost last night, the fourth prince was sure that if it were him, he would probably speak more seriously and adapt to the situation, but he definitely couldn't stand the smell of chicken blood on his face!
Therefore, he still admired Xiao Cheng, but at this time, he just felt that this little guy really didn't have the awareness to share blessings and share hardships.
Wouldn't it be better if there was something waiting for him and Xiao Peanut to do together? Besides, when dealing with the Chen family, Fang family and Gao family yesterday, he and Xiao Peanut were almost always there to deal with people. Xiao Cheng spent most of his time there.
Watching from the side, this guy is serious, but he is honest and clumsy. It's okay to meet honest people, but when you meet tricky people, big trouble can easily happen!
The fourth prince put on his shoes as fast as he could and hurriedly prepared to go out. He complained angrily: "The teacher's family is the same, why didn't you stop him!"
"Forget it, that stubborn man actually became smarter this time. He kept saying that Brother Zhang told him to get up and go to the public school. Since Brother Six was not there, he let him out at the door and gave him a bottle from the stable.
Horse!" Speaking of this, Xiaohua became angry and said, "I don't usually see this kid so smart. He took the wrong medicine this time! What's the use of him going alone!"
The two little guys walked all the way, complaining angrily, but when they arrived at the stable in the front yard, they found that it was not that easy to walk.
It turned out that Zhang Shou used a carriage when traveling in the morning, and Wu took the carriage to the Duke Zhao's Mansion to discuss the marriage. Song Juren took Fang Qing to the Jiangdu Prince's Mansion to attend to business - it was expected to be related to someone's marriage; plus Ye Mengqiu
The four brothers were summoned by the emperor today. They went to discuss the revision of the calendar with other astronomical figures. They left in cars. There were only three cars left in the stable.
These three carriages were all used by Zhang Yuanzhong's servants when they went out. They were usually packed casually. Even if there was no air leakage from all sides, they were still shabby and shabby. As for the carriage that the Fourth Prince and the others took back last night, it was still there.
Clean and wipe it thoroughly. Otherwise, if the smell of blood and messy groceries has not been removed, can people still sit there?
Seeing this scene, the fourth prince naturally claimed that he could ride a horse and asked to bring two horses. However, the steward in the stable was able to let Xiao Cheng out, but he never dared to let the fourth prince out like this - after all, Zhang Shou morning
When I went out, I specifically told him to keep an eye on the naughty child and wait until Ah Liu comes back to pick him up before letting him go. Therefore, no matter what the fourth prince said, he just refused to give him a horse.
The anxious fourth prince didn't want to waste any more time, so he simply picked up the little peanut who was still trying to rub him hard and ran away. But when they arrived at the gate, they were stopped by several concierges. The leader, Anlu, was limping.
, he spoke politely and respectfully, but when it came to letting people go, he refused to let go at all, which made the fourth prince jump around in anxiety.
Just as the two sides were arguing, a crisp voice suddenly came from outside the door: "What are you arguing about?"
Little Peanut was stunned when he heard this, and when he raised his head, the fourth prince had already started shouting: "Sister Yingying, please help me. I want to go out, but they won't let me go. I have something urgent to do. It's really urgent."
!”
"Hey, it's you two?" Under the fourth prince's eager gaze, the curtains of the carriage opened, revealing a face that was both smiling and angry, it was Zhu Ying.
"Ah Shou told Aunt Wu about the two of them, and Aunt Wu went to Zhao Guogong's mansion today and told me again. So I thought they would definitely continue to go out today to clean up the aftermath."
Zhu Ying pointed at the Fourth Prince and Xiao Huahua who were stopped by several concierges. Seeing that they were just smiling at her, she said to Anlu and the other concierges in a friendly manner: "Anyway, I'm at home."
I have nothing to do, so I just came over to pick them up and drop them off. How can such a lively thing be done without me?"
Originally, he wanted to explain Zhang Shou's instructions, but Anlu heard the eldest lady open her mouth and said that she knew the whole story, and said something he couldn't refuse. Although he really wanted to wait for Ah Liu to come back, he thought about it.
Even if Liu came back, he would probably have to obey orders in front of Zhu Ying. He waved his hand to the concierge to get out of the way, and watched helplessly as the fourth prince dragged Little Peanut and rushed to the carriage.
When Zhu Ying saw the two little guys getting into the car, she said to Anlu: "By the way, send someone to the public school later to tell Ah Shou that I will take them two away. I will be here to keep them."
No one can touch a hair of theirs. There is no need for Ah Liu to come here in a hurry, just stay with Ah Shou!"
"Yes, then please leave it to the eldest lady." Anlu didn't want to argue about this at all. He cupped his hand and then gave a few instructions to Yang Hao beside him. He ran to the stable as soon as he saw the person. When he saw Zhu Ying smiling, she nodded and put it down.
He closed the curtains, and after a while, the group of people gradually moved away and disappeared from his sight. He couldn't help but rub his temples with a headache.
When Ah Liu brought the three little guys back last night, he was shocked when he recognized the fourth prince. When he saw Xiao Cheng covered in blood, he thought something big had happened, but he found that there were still people in the car.
He was dumbfounded by the pile of dry goods and all kinds of food, and he still can't figure out what this strange combination of four people was doing in the middle of the night.
Now Zhu Ying also ran over and said enthusiastically that she would also get involved. He suddenly realized that he no longer wanted to know what was going on. If the fourth prince was easy to cause trouble, Ah Liu was not afraid of causing trouble.
So, this Miss Zhu... is always thinking about how to cause trouble to relieve her boredom!
With Zhu Ying as the savior who fell from the sky, the fourth prince who climbed into the car breathed a sigh of relief. However, the little peanut who also got on the car was a little flinched after discovering the luxurious and exquisite furnishings in the carriage - after all, even thinking about it in the first place
Ah Liu, who wanted to give up a place for Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying to live together, was so frightened that he almost ran away as soon as he got in the car, let alone him.
Although Zhang Yuan is large, the furnishings are not luxurious, unlike in this carriage, where everything seems to be very expensive!
But Zhu Ying didn't pay attention to Xiao Huahua's reaction, because Wu only gave a brief summary when she was in Zhao Guogong's mansion - after all, the information she was told about her grandmother and mother came from Zhang Shou - so at this time
She couldn't help but inquire with great interest about the strange case that the three of them went to investigate yesterday.
As the fourth prince spoke vividly, the little peanut's nervousness about suddenly getting into a luxury car gradually disappeared, and she would add a few words from time to time. Until there was a commotion outside the car. Zhu Ying opened the curtains and discovered that she had arrived at the city gate.
At the same time, the two little guys in the car shut up immediately for fear of being heard by people outside. Then, they heard a voice outside.
"Miss, we have arrived at Xuanwumen. There are people over there saying that there is news from Huairou Imperial Manor that..."
Zhu Ying, who had just returned from the Huairou Imperial Mansion yesterday morning, couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat when she heard the word Huairou. She couldn't help but frown. Especially when she found that the driver was hesitant to speak.
, she said impatiently: "Don't be hesitant and show off. If you have something to say, just say it. What are you afraid of!"
"The Huairou Imperial Mansion sent someone back to report the news as quickly as possible. I don't know if they encountered a problem at Xuanwu Gate or for some reason. The messenger was jumping around and yelling, saying that he had urgent news that he was waiting to deliver to the city.
He also said that while the great scholar Confucius was personally going to appease the people around the palace, the eldest prince...the eldest prince committed suicide."
"..."
The three people in the car immediately stared at each other. Little Peanut didn't have any good impressions of the eldest prince. After all, he was the biggest culprit that caused the chaos in Cangzhou, and he was also the person he deceived by pretending to be a woman. If it weren't for the fact that he held the eldest prince hostage,
The prince let Xian Yunhe and others go to the palace, and he would not have met Zhang Shou by chance. There are still many people in Xian Yunhe, and he would not have been exiled to Qiongzhou Prefecture to plant trees.
However, he didn't hate Zhang Shou or Zhu Tingfang at all, but he only hated the eldest prince deeply. Now that he heard that the eldest prince was dead, he was glad that his embarrassing incident of dressing up as a woman might be covered up forever, but he couldn't help it.
Somewhat angry.
That greedy and shameless idiot who harmed the people... is finally dead! He was given an advantage!
The fourth prince had hated those two guys who were nominally brothers since he was a child. When he heard that the eldest prince had died, instead of sighing, he couldn't help but muttered something like "a good death." As a result, the next moment he was killed.
Zhu Ying glared fiercely.
"It's okay to say this in front of me. If you are in front of the emperor later, you must control your mouth! You must remember that the emperor has lost two sons, and you must put yourself in his position!
"
Seeing the fourth prince nodding his head immediately, Zhu Ying frowned and murmured to herself: "But this guy will die sooner or later, why did he choose to die at this time?"
When she arrived at the Huairou Imperial Mansion, she did not go to show off her power in front of the eldest prince like a winner because she didn't like the guy, so she didn't want to see him at all. In addition, there was a mob besieging the Imperial Manor later, so she
She was busy dealing with that group of people, so she took a quick look at the eldest prince, a hot potato, before leaving, and hurried back to the capital without saying a few words.
But suddenly, Zhu Ying thought of the biggest problem. She took a breath and said, "Master Kong went to appease the people, but where is Aunt Yuquan? Aunt Yuquan won't be the one to take the blame in the end, right?"
At this time, even the fourth prince couldn't help but frown. Although the Queen Mother used to be ordinary to him and the third brother, she is still ordinary now, and there is no excessive closeness, but Yuquan has always treated them well.
.
A few years ago, when he and his third brother were just insignificant little princes in the eyes of others, they would often go to Qingning Palace to pay their respects to the Queen Mother, and they would often "coincidentally" coincide with the First and Second Princes showing their hospitality in front of the Queen Mother.
Every time at this time, Yuquan would not take them there to accompany them, but would specially take them to another room to wait, preparing tea, snacks and other delicious food for them.
Not only that, Yuquan would personally talk to them, ask about their daily diet, and ask how the people serving around them treated them. Before leaving, he would also ask them to bring some snacks that were often made in the small kitchen of Qingning Palace, as well as other people's filial piety to the Queen Mother.
Gadgets. Although this was not as valuable as the reward given to the eldest prince and second prince brothers by the queen mother, the fourth prince remembered this affection very much.
Therefore, he temporarily forgot about Xiao Cheng, who had taken a step earlier, and couldn't help but ask: "Sister Yingying, what should we do now?"
Zhu Ying was originally frowning, but at this moment, she suddenly felt happy. She suddenly punched the wall of the carriage and said in a deep voice: "If it is really a messenger coming back, then he is probably from the Ruiqi camp, and he will not be so measured.
No, we actually had some dispute with the city gate guards at Xuanwu Gate, and even shouted such a message in public. This matter is fraudulent!"
Almost as soon as she said these words, the eldest lady immediately opened the car door and shouted: "Come here, call the guy who calls himself the messenger, I want to question him personally!"
The coachman outside the carriage had already jumped out of the car when he heard Zhu Ying calling out that this was a fraud. And when Zhu Ying gave the order, the coachman who used to drive the lady did not know who the lady was giving the order.
, and immediately looked at Zhu Hong, who was aside. In an instant, he saw Zhu Hong rushing towards the noisy messenger and city gate guards with two guards.
However, the flow of people in and out of the city and the crowd of onlookers were too huge. When the three guards of Duke Zhao's Mansion were trying to find a way out, someone had already jumped in front of them.
"You claim to be the messenger who came back from Huairou Imperial Village to report the message? Which battalion of the Ruiqi Battalion is on the left, middle and right? What is your current position? Who is your superior? Who ordered you to return to the city to report the message? Where is the token? Why are you making such a loud noise here at Xuanwu Gate?
Making noise and leaking important information? Do you still want the heads on this job?"
The questions were louder and louder, and the last sentence was like thunder. Even Zhu Hong couldn't help but follow the words. He only saw a slight commotion in the crowd of onlookers, and then they were forced to clear a way, and
He recognized the young nobleman who was leading the way and had an arrogant expression. Isn't that Zhang Chen?
What a coincidence, Zhang Chen, like Zhu Ying, also happened to encounter this scene!
But Zhang Chen didn't see Zhu Hong. His tone was aggressive just now, and his actions at this time were equally aggressive. He rode his horse and pressed forward step by step. Seeing the messenger retreating involuntarily, he sneered, drew his sword and pointed at the opponent.
He said word for word: "Can you explain clearly what I just asked you?"
The man who claimed to be the messenger didn't seem to expect to be questioned like this. He was a little at a loss at the moment. After he realized what he was doing, he shouted loudly: "Who are you, and why are you interfering with my affairs in the Ruiqi Camp?"
"Who am I? Hehe...haha...hahahaha!" Zhang Chen suddenly laughed, and then shouted angrily, "Come here, catch this traitor who is pretending to be the messenger of the Ruiqi Camp!"
As he shouted, Zhu Hong, who was ordered to come over, saw several guards behind Zhang Chen pounce on him without hesitation, so that he didn't find a chance to take action at all, and watched helplessly as the messenger didn't even resist for a single turn.
He was captured alive. Soon after, Zhang Chen slowly came to the other party: "You don't even recognize me, Zhang Chen, and you still call me Rui Qiying!"
