After entering the cabin and putting Min'er to sleep, the two brothers finally had a good talk. Zhu Yunxuan glanced out the window. Their ship was escorted by four or five ships. The formation was really large. He asked Zhu Yunjing helplessly: "Didn't I say that there is no need to send so many people? You are fine, why not?" Came here in person."
Zhu Yunjing said: "It's better to be careful. If Quanzhou is now under martial law, and the enemy is always on guard, I will bring more people over."
Zhu Yunxuan couldn't help frowning when he heard the words: "The news of my going back cannot be known for the time being."
"Don't worry, these people were trained by He Huailing himself, and they will never dare to reveal His Majesty's whereabouts at will."
Zhu Yunxuan nodded: "How about Quanzhou?"
Zhu Yunjing sneered: "As expected, there are indeed people who are ready to move, but don't worry, they are all grasshoppers who can't stand on the table. The remnants of the Chen family have withdrawn from the Central Plains for more than two hundred years. How many usable ones can they leave behind?" People, the one from the Liang Mansion was purely accidental, and the rest are all unknown people, I already have a list of who they are, and I just wait for His Majesty to go back and deal with them."
Speaking of the latter, Zhu Yunjing hesitated for a moment, and asked him: "...just, that kid Zhu Yunqiong, what are you going to do?"
Zhu Yunxuan didn't know what to say for a moment: "Did someone try to approach him these days?"
"Of course there are, I'm afraid those people didn't expect you to bring Zhu Yunqiong to the south, which happened to give them a chance, but I have been sending people to watch, those people can't get close to him, he probably doesn't know his own identity life experience."
Zhu Yunxuan sighed: "Don't say it's him, Chen Guifei may not know, that woman only wanted to be the Queen Mother of the Virgin Mary, and she almost succeeded... Forget it, I didn't kill Zhu Yunqiong back then, so why bother now, if he I don’t know anything, and I will be able to live in peace and contentment in the future. It’s just a sick and weak clan, and I’ll just take care of it.”
Zhu Yunjing reminded him disapprovingly: "The succession turmoil back then, coupled with his embarrassing life experience, His Majesty should not be soft-hearted, and should decisively cut the roots."
Zhu Yunxuan shook his head: "At the temple fair that day, he rushed forward desperately trying to get back Min'er, but he was kicked to the ground and couldn't get up. It's not good for me to kill him just because of this. There is cause and effect in this world. Retribution, if the retribution is on me, that's all. I dare not gamble with him. When I released him from the cold palace, I originally planned to accumulate good fortune for him, so how can I go back on my word. "
"Furthermore," Zhu Yunxuan lowered his eyes and said calmly, "He is now like this, powerless and powerless, it's hard to say whether he can live to adulthood, if I treat such a person as a confidant, I, the emperor, can do it It was too much of a failure, since I saved his life, I naturally wouldn't give him a chance to think about what he shouldn't have."
"Okay, you just know what you have in mind." In the end, Zhu Yunqiong is just a pawn being used by others, and Zhu Yunjing is too lazy to persuade her, "Let's not talk about Zhu Yunqiong, let's talk about that Liang Zhen Well, you've already let Min'er recognize him? What do you think?"
Zhu Yunxuan was startled, and when he came back to his senses, there was a slight smile in his eyes, and he asked Zhu Yunjing: "Brother, have you been with Duke Ding for so many years, are you happy?"
Zhu Yunjing was annoyed: "It's different for me to do what you do..."
"It's nothing different. I didn't agree with you and Duke Ding when you were together, but is it okay that you are different now? You can live on, maybe I can do it with him. I like him, and he likes it too." Me, that's enough. I used to think too much, so I would look forward and backward. It's better not to think about anything. I'm drunk today, as long as he doesn't let me down for a day, I will treat him well , not to mention, we still have Min'er, even though his birth was not what I wanted, but now I can't let him go at all."
Zhu Yunjing was speechless for a while: "... This time he directly took you and Min'er away, it would be too reckless, although he didn't have any malicious intentions."
"Yeah," Zhu Yunxuan nodded with a smile, "If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have known that Zhu Yunqiong had such a life experience, and there were even hidden stakes laid by the remnants of the previous dynasty in the court. He just acted boldly and radically, indeed. Focus on me."
Zhu Yunjing: "..."
On the second day after Zhu Yunxuan was robbed, Liang Zhen sent someone to send a letter to the General Military Mansion, explaining his plan in detail, since he couldn't find the lair where the ghost pirates were hiding, it is better to lure them out and catch them all . He robbed the emperor and deliberately released the news of the emperor's disappearance. Those pirates colluding with the foreign people will definitely take the opportunity to send troops to Dayan. The eyeliner of the remnants of the previous dynasty who acted as an internal response in the court can kill two birds with one stone.
And Liang Zhen himself, using the Emperor Dayan in his hand as a bait, mixed into the alliance between the Fanbang people and those pirates, and when the time came, he turned his back on the battle and caught them by surprise.
The idea was good, but it was too bold, not to mention that Zhu Yunjing and He Huailing didn't trust Liang Zhen at all, until You Falcon sent Zhu Yunxuan's reply back, and Zhu Yunxuan personally agreed to Liang Zhen's plan, they had no choice but to act according to plan . Now, after discovering that the enemy bandits are coming soon, Zhu Yunxuan finally sent a letter to ask someone to come and take him back.
Now that Zhu Yunxuan is like this, there is no room for others to say that Liang Zhen's half-sentence is not good, Zhu Yunjing's words turned around, and she wisely chose to shut up. Just like what Zhu Yunxuan said, the good and the bad are all his own pleasure, so why think so much, after all, the current Zhu Yunxuan is no longer something that Liang Zhen can force at will, so let them make trouble, he Why bother to worry about what's there and what's not, it's annoying.
"As long as you can think about it yourself, I won't persuade you much. It's just how to explain to the courtiers. You have to think clearly."
Zhu Yunxuan smiled: "I have a plan in mind."
After arriving in Quanzhou, Zhu Yunxuan never went out of the General Military Mansion, and only saw a few important court officials who came with him. Even they were kept a secret about the emperor's disappearance. When they saw Zhu Yunxuan again, the old ministers were all in tears. Zhu Yunxuan urged them repeatedly so that they did not show their clues in front of the outsiders.
After Zhu Yunxuan left for more than half a month, there was some turmoil in Beijing, but Zhu Yunxuan had been in power for a long time in the past three years, and there was no big disturbance in such a short period of time. After returning to Quanzhou, he immediately wrote a secret decree , sent people to the cabinet ministers who stayed in Beijing, and suppressed those who had other thoughts.
Although it is not convenient to show up in front of people for the time being, Zhu Yunxuan still has to deal with countless backlogged political affairs every day after returning, and also discusses the upcoming naval battle with He Huailing. The division recalled most of them, just waiting for the thieves to come forward and throw themselves into the net.
In the afternoon of this day, Min'er, who woke up from a nap, was brought to Zhu Yunxuan's place by her mother, and Zhu Yunxuan was untying the letter she had just received from the feet of the flying back peregrine falcon.
The peregrine falcon flew down from the window sill when it saw Min'er, and landed on the ground, looking up at Min'er with its head held high. The child stepped forward, squatted down, and caressed the little bird's wings to make out with it with a smile. .
Zhu Yunxuan didn't stop him when he saw this, and looked down at the letter in his hand. Liang Zhen's handwriting was always like a dragon and a snake, chic and unrestrained, with extraordinary momentum. The letter briefly stated the information he collected, including those Zhu Yunxuan has no doubts about when the enemy is going to send troops, how many ships and people they will send, what equipment is on board, and from which direction to attack... Zhu Yunxuan has no doubts. If Liang Zhen is not sure of the authenticity of the news, he will not tell him rashly.
At the end of the letter, with a twist of the pen, it was a love sentence with a flirtatious meaning "I miss the king, more than myself", Zhu Yunxuan couldn't help laughing when she saw it, and whispered: "I don't feel ashamed."
He didn't reply to the letter, he just picked an unknown summer flower that came out of the window, stuffed it into a bamboo tube, and called Min'er over: "My dear baby, little bird is going to help Daddy to deliver something to your father." , do you want to give him something?"
The child thought for a while, then took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to Zhu Yunxuan, and said generously, "Give my candy to my father."
Zhu Yunxuan couldn't help laughing, Zhu'er is addicted to sugar, Zhu Yunjing stipulates that he can only eat two at most every day, the child has always loved his candy, and I only got it from him twice, one was the second time I just met One day, a child sent him candies to apologize. Once when he was sick, his good son put two candies next to his pillow to let him get better soon, but this time he was so generous that he was willing to give them to Liang Zhen.
"Is it really for father?"
The little baby nodded earnestly: "You're not stingy."
Zhu Yunxuan smiled and scratched his nose: "Good baby."
I stuffed the sugar into the bamboo tube and tied it back to the peregrine's feet. Watching it fly out of the window, it flew up to the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Zhu Yunxuan closed his eyes lightly and smiled silently.
At night, Liang Zhen had just returned to the house when he heard a "whoosh" sound, and a peregrine falcon that fell from the sky stopped on the window sill, raised its head proudly, as if unwilling to pay attention to him.
Liang Zhen walked over with a smile, untied the bamboo tube carefully, and was pecked by the peregrine falcon lightly on the back of his hand. He held back his smile and said, "Peck me again, and I will tell Ah Xuan to stew you later."
Peregrine Falcon glanced at him contemptuously, turned his head and flew out, Liang Zhen didn't care, looked at the two things poured out of the bamboo tube, then laughed softly.
The first time I saw Xiao'er at Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Dingguo's mansion, the child said that he would give him candy, but he didn't expect to finally fulfill it until today.
He also picked flowers casually and gave them to Zhu Yunxuan. It was the most deadlocked period of their relationship. Zhu Yunxuan didn't even look at them. In the end, he threw the flowers away. Now Zhu Yunxuan took the initiative to send the broken flowers to thousands of miles away. Send it to him.
The night was harmonious, and what was brighter than the stars in the night was the smile that completely pervaded Liang Zhen's eyes.
It wasn't until someone outside the door whispered to remind him that it was time to go, that he put the two things in his hands back into the bamboo tube, put them in his arms properly, put them together with the jade pendant that Zhu Yunxuan gave him when he left, and pushed open the door.
