Zhu Houzhao patted Chu Yi on the shoulder and said: "It would be great if my companion could understand my intentions. I am really afraid that you will act impulsively and create a strong enemy for yourself."
As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao looked at Chu Yi and said: "My companion, please remember not to act too hastily!"
Chu Yi solemnly said: "Thank you for your teaching, Your Majesty, Chu Yi will keep it in mind!"
Although Chu Yi is not worried about making enemies at all, it doesn't matter if he offends everyone. As long as he can get enough luck, the world will be his enemies, and at most he will be forced to leave this world.
Of course, Zhu Houzhao treated him well, and everyone has feelings. Chu Yi also wanted to help Zhu Houzhao get rid of his fate while gaining luck. If possible, the monarch and his ministers would join forces to bring order to the Eastern Empire of Ming Dynasty, which was gradually sliding into the abyss.
The glory of the Ming Dynasty spreads all over the world.
Indicating Chu Yi to sit down, Zhu Houzhao took the tea from Gu Da and said: "How is the situation at the Fourth Guard Camp in Tengxiang?"
Although it is said that Dongchang fans have been passing on the news, after all, they have not witnessed it with their own eyes. Now that Chu Yi is here, no one knows what is going on in the Four Guards of Tengxiang better than Chu Yi.
Zhu Houzhao put a lot of effort into the Tengxiang Four Guards. He started planning a little bit a few years ago. With the help of Liu Jin, he finally expanded the Tengxiang Four Guards to more than 20,000 people, and they were already in the capital.
It is a force that cannot be underestimated.
However, the existence of the Four Guards of Tengxiang today is obviously the result of compromise between all parties. Just like Huang Zhan and Xu Yizu, one represents the nobility and the other represents the civil servant group. Zhu Houzhao can only accept it.
Chu Yi sneered and said: "Now that Huang Zhan, Xu Yizu and others have been beheaded, as for the remaining people, they can no longer make trouble. Your Majesty, don't worry. I will figure out the nails that those people planted among the four guards of Tengxiang."
Pull it out in one fell swoop.”
Hearing Chu Yi say this, Zhu Houzhao's face showed a bit of joy and said: "That's great, I know these things can't be difficult for my companion!"
While Zhu Houzhao was talking, Chu Yi explained some of his next plans to Zhu Houzhao. Gu Dayong on the side couldn't help but tremble in his calves when he heard Chu Yi's murderous words.
Just listening to Chu Yi's plan, Gu Dayong felt a little scared in his heart. He was going to kill people, and it wasn't just a few, but a big killing.
However, under Chu Yi's encouragement, Zhu Houzhao's face flushed excitedly, and he actually agreed with Chu Yi's plan. This made Gu Dayong couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, he did not confront Chu Yi, otherwise, he would have been afraid of death.
It would be quite miserable.
When the night got dark, Zhu Houzhao let Chu Yi leave the Leopard Room.
In the Forbidden City, Queen Xia locked herself in a quiet room and prayed silently. It was obviously impossible to say that she had no objection to Chu Yi, but Xia knew very well that with Chu Yi's current favored status, she was probably
Even the queen herself may not be able to match her status in Zhu Houzhao's mind.
"The Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, please bless..."
Outside the quiet room, the voice of the palace maid Qing He came: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has a decree, please come out and receive it!"
After hearing this, Queen Xia couldn't help but take a deep breath, stood up and left the quiet room, and saw that the person coming was Qiu Ju, who was serving the emperor.
Qiu Ju, Gu Dayong, Liu Jin, Chu Yi and others were generally the servants of Zhu Houzhao's latent residence in the past. Although they were not as powerful as Liu Jin, Gu Dayong and Chu Yi, they were only compared with Chu Yi and others.
In addition to the Li Jian and the Royal Horse Jian, the Fourteenth Jian also has other institutions, and Qiu Ju naturally also holds great power.
When Qiu Ju saw Queen Xia, he quickly bowed and said, "My slave Qiu Ju pays homage to the Queen. She may live a thousand years!"
Queen Xia smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Qiu, there is no need to be polite. I don't know what your majesty's decree is!"
Qiu Ju smiled and said: "Your Majesty has a verbal order for me to deliver to you!"
Mrs. Xia quickly knelt down to listen to the sacred metaphor, and then she heard Qiu Ju look solemnly and say: "Queen Xia is a virtuous and virtuous woman who understands righteousness. I am very pleased. I will reward you with a string of Eastern pearls and a hundred pieces of silk... The country My father-in-law Xia was unable to teach his son Confucianism... My uncle Xia Zhu was demoted to a commoner..."
The queen was not concerned about the emperor's reward, but the treatment of her brother. Now that she heard the result of the emperor's treatment, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Xia Zhu was made a commoner and sent back to his place of origin, even Xia Ru was punished. Implicated, but in any case, the queen is very satisfied with such a result.
Xia Shi knew very well that based on Xia Zhu's actions, if the emperor was really serious, not only would everyone in the Xia family be dead, but even her position as queen would be unstable.
That was the charge of colluding with the Imperial Army and conspiring against evil intentions. Even though she didn't believe that Xia Zhu had the courage and intention, if we really dig into it, Xia Zhu's crime was really irrefutable.
Queen Xia took a deep breath and bowed respectfully in the direction of the Leopard Room: "My concubine, Xia, I accept this order to express my gratitude!"
Qiu Ju said to the empress who stood up: "Your Majesty, your Majesty sent this old slave here to convey the decree and appease the empress, and to see what the empress would like to say to the father-in-law and uncle. Tell me, this old slave can go and see off the father-in-law and his party on behalf of the queen."
It was obvious that Zhu Houzhao had considered it very thoughtfully. Mrs. If we cause trouble again, I will personally implore Your Majesty to punish you severely!"
Qiu Ju said respectfully: "Old slave, take your orders!"
In the secret prison of Dongchang, Uncle Xia Zhu was brought into the secret prison. This is the place where Dongchang interrogates prisoners. All the criminals held there are guilty, and some criminals are to be punished and interrogated. Most people may not be able to withstand all kinds of cruel methods.
Natsuki was really frightened, and even when he was locked in a separate cell, his face was still pale.
As the night passed, Xia Zhu could only hear screams coming one after another. He was so sleepy that he didn't dare to close his eyes. He barely closed his eyes until dawn.
When a burst of footsteps came, a voice sounded: "Natsusuke!"
Natsuki screamed almost instinctively: "No, no, it's none of my business..."
"drink!"
Chu Yi couldn't help scolding Xia Zhu when he saw that he was so frightened that he almost collapsed. Lord, please forgive me, it’s really none of my business!”
Chu Yi glanced at Xia Zhu indifferently and said: "Xia Zhu, your fortune is good this time. The Queen will plead for you. Your Majesty, considering the relationship between you and the Queen, will spare your life!"
With a pop, Natsuki sat down on the ground, his face full of surprise and murmured: "I don't have to die, I really don't have to die!"
There was a crash, and the chains of the cell were opened. Chu Yi said to Xia Zhu, "Brother Ling is waiting for you outside the prison. Why don't you leave with me soon?"
Xia Zhu climbed to his feet and followed Chu Yi timidly out of the Dongchang Secret Prison, which was like a devil's cave. Looking back, Xia Zhu had a look of fear on his face.
Xia Zhu's brother, Xia Chen, was the commander of the Jinyi Guards, but it was just an empty title. He saw the gentle Xia Chen standing next to a carriage. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chu Yi leading Xia Zhu out of the prison.
He stepped forward, first glared at Xia Zhu, and then saluted Chu Yi with great respect: "Thank you, Mr. Chu, for your noble hand and sparing my second brother."
Chu Yi said calmly: "No need to thank me, if you want to thank me, just thank the empress and your majesty!"
Xia Chen nodded repeatedly and said, "That's what the manager said."
As he spoke, Xia Chen shouted at Xia Zhu: "You bastard, you have made my mother worried. This time, my father and you will both return to your place of origin. If you cause trouble again, no one can protect you."
Xia Zhu was a little dissatisfied, but he had not yet had an attack. Chu Yi glanced aside and couldn't help but shuddered. At this time, Chu Yi's voice rang in his ears: "Uncle Xia Guo, Chu is in charge of the East Factory. Dongchang is different."
I don’t have the ability, but I have the best information. If I return to my hometown this time and still act recklessly without regard to the king’s law, then don’t blame Chu for asking Your Majesty to punish him severely!”
Xia Zhu, who was trembling, hurriedly saluted Chu Yi and hid in the carriage. Xia Chen smiled bitterly, saluted Chu Yi and said: "Mr. Chu, Xia Chen retires!"
Chu Yi nodded slightly and watched the Xia brothers leave.
To be honest, it was only a few years after the Xia family was established. Although the Xia family is a relative, there has never been a strong relative in the Ming Dynasty.
You know, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, it can be seen that the relatives of the Ming Dynasty really have no power.
Xia Zhu was just a bit of a dandy, and he really wasn't dead. Even so, Xia Zhu was being plotted against. Chu Yi even wondered if some people were plotting against Zhu Houzhao and the empress to alienate the emperor and the empress. Once the empress
Disharmony will inevitably lead to turmoil in the harem, and Zhu Houzhao will inevitably be affected at that time.
Thinking of some people, a cold light flashed in Chu Yi's eyes and he whispered in a low voice: "Do you really think that Chu's sword is at a disadvantage?"
"Eh!"
Chu Yi suddenly raised his head and looked towards the long street in the distance, and saw a scribe in blue shirt slowly approaching under the bright sunshine.
The visitor was dressed in a green shirt and had nothing in his hand except a folding fan. As the visitor approached, an invisible aura had already locked onto Chu Yi.
Chu Yi's heart moved, and his eyes fell on the other party. An indifferent aura flowed from the other party, and the human aura gradually disappeared.
Chu Yi looked at the opponent, and Zhu Han also looked at Chu Yi. The moment their breaths collided, they clearly realized that they had met their opponent this time.
"Your Excellency, your cultivation has reached the innate realm. You must be an unknown person. I don't know how to call him!"
Chu Yi couldn't help but wonder where the other party came from. After all, there was no inheritance, and it was absolutely impossible for an innate-level strongman to suddenly pop up.
