Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 406 Ma He's younger sister!
When Lao Zhu returned to the palace, he called Jiang Yu over, and specially instructed Erhu in front of Erhu.

"Put a few people in Yanwang's mansion for us, and watch Yanwang for us to see if this kid is playing tricks in secret!"

"If you have any news, you can go directly to the palace and tell us, you don't need to tell anyone!"

When Lao Zhu said this, he was obviously referring to Erhu.Erhu also heard Lao Zhu's intention of alienation, and retreated after bowing.

Jiang Yu was overjoyed when he heard that, which proved that His Majesty the Emperor had finally attracted him as his confidant.

"I'm so humble, I have to repay Your Majesty's kindness!"

Old Zhu was too lazy to listen to his flattery, he just waved his hand at him and dismissed him.

In fact, what Lao Zhu said when he was beating King Yan was actually a bastard thing that Zhu Xing, the king of Qin, did.

This guy was messing around with his side concubine in dragon robes and phoenix robes at home, if Zhu Xi didn't run fast today, he wouldn't have to beat Zhu Di to vent his anger.

After Lao Zhu said these words, he saw that Zhu Di's reaction was abnormal, so he thought of sending someone to investigate.

On the other side, Zhu Di returned to Yan Wang's mansion with a grim face, and shut himself in the dark room as soon as he got home, not allowing anyone to come in and disturb him.

Even the concubine Xu was rejected by him.

"roll!"

"No one is allowed in!"

Zhu Di knelt in the dark room, beating the ground desperately, with veins popping out of his arms and forehead.

At this time, he was very unwilling and angry, and wanted to reprimand his father, but he dared not express it.

Zhu Yuanzhang's words "raised by my little mother" deeply hurt his heart, and he could hardly breathe.

"Father!"

"If my son does something that angers the heavens and the people complains in the future, it will be forced by you, the emperor!"

Zhu Di cried until night, and then he wiped away his tears and came out of the dark room.

However, after he came out, he didn't wash up or eat dinner, but ordered Ma He to be called over.

As soon as Ma He entered King Yan's room, he felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right.

King Yan was sitting on the grand master's chair, and the dim light reflected on his face, making him even more majestic and unfathomable.

"Ma He, you have been serving Gu for a long time, right?"

Hearing this, Ma He hurriedly knelt on the ground and said.

"Reporting to Your Highness, this servant has been serving you for nine years since she entered the palace in the 17th year of Hongwu."

Zhu Di nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

"How about treating you alone?"

"His Royal Highness waits for the slaves to be reborn, and the slaves will not be able to repay His Highness if they are smashed to pieces in this life!"

In fact, Ma He was just an ordinary eunuch in Yan Wang's mansion. He usually accompanied the princes and princes to study, and Zhu Di didn't value him much.

Therefore, Zhu Di's question was unreasonable, and Ma He's flattering was just a formality.

But some programs should go or go.

"It's good that you know!"

"Gu has already sent you to the emperor's grandson, and you will be the emperor's grandson from now on. When you arrive at the emperor's grandson, you know what to say and what not to say, right?"

"what?"

Ma He never thought that he would have a day to change jobs!
Jumping from the vassal's mansion to the emperor's grandson's side, no matter how you look at it, it's a profit.

However, would His Royal Highness King Yan be willing to let him go?

I have stayed in Yanwang Mansion for nine full years, and I know a lot of secrets in Yanwang Mansion.

To be honest, Ma He thinks so highly of himself, at least he doesn't know about Yao Guangxiao's conspiracy with Zhu Di, or Zhu Di's hidden desire to compete.

It was impossible for Zhu Di to tell such an important matter to a young eunuch, so he didn't care much about Ma and the eunuch.

It's just that the deep house in the palace is not clean.

For example, a concubine died tragically, a maidservant or eunuch was thrown into a mass grave, and so on.

It's not a big deal, but if it spreads out, it will also hinder my reputation.

"When you get to the emperor grandson's side, you should take care of yourself!"

"do you know?"

When Ma He heard the words "good for himself", his heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that His Royal Highness wants me to express my feelings?

But how does this kind of thing show your heart?

Only the mouth of the dead is the strictest...

Thinking of this, Ma He suddenly felt an unknown fire in his heart.

Eunuchs are human too, who wants to die if they can live!
However, the king of Yan has said so much, is he still alive?

"The servant knows!"

"The servant girl will find a rope and hang herself when she returns home. She will die in Prince Yan's mansion and be loyal to the prince for the rest of her life!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he almost jumped out of his chair in fright.

Oh my god, that damn child wanted you by name, and you died here, isn't that sincerely embarrassing me?
"no!"

"I don't allow you to die, if you want to die, don't die in the Yan Palace!"

"You are not allowed to go to the emperor's grandson alive and kicking, just keep your mouth shut when you get there, and just don't talk about the affairs of Prince Yan's mansion!"

"If you can reveal something about the emperor's grandson to Gu, Gu will not be stingy with rewarding you!"

When Ma He heard this, his eyes widened like a toad.

what's going on?
Yan Wang actually sent me to the emperor's grandson?

"Your Highness, don't worry, no matter where the servants are, their hearts will always stay in Yan Wang's Mansion, and stay by His Highness's side!"

Hearing what Ma He said, Zhu Di immediately felt much more at ease.

"Ok!"

"It's good of you to have such a heart!"

"By the way, Gu heard that you have a younger sister?"

"Although you are physically disabled, you can no longer carry on the family line. But your sister can marry. When she gets married in the future, she will give you an adoptive son. Wouldn't you be able to have incense?"

"Don't worry, Gu will send someone to look for your sister, and make him a good family when the time comes!"

Upon hearing this, Ma He's eyes sparkled with crystal light.

When he was castrated, he didn't know what he had lost.As he grew older, knowing that he had lost the last dignity of a man, he was almost overwhelmed with remorse, self-blame, and even guilt towards his ancestors.

Fortunately, he has a younger sister, which brings some comfort to his guilty heart.

However, he hid this matter very deeply and almost never mentioned it to outsiders. How did King Yan know about it?
Now no matter whether King Yan is sincere or false, he can only thank King Yan for his sincerity.

"My servant thank you King Yan for your kindness!"

"I will repay you as a slave and a horse in my next life, woo woo woo..."

Zhu Di finally showed a smile on his face.

"Go!"

"Go back and tidy up, I will send someone to take you to the emperor's grandson in a while!"

"promise!"

After Ma He left, Zhu Di still felt uneasy, so he hurriedly called two young eunuchs to check on Ma He, fearing that he might make a mistake or be overwhelmed, so he secretly found a rope and hanged himself.

After Zhu Di arranged all this, he took a bath under the service of his wife and concubines to wash off the dust accumulated in the prison these days.

Under the supervision of two eunuch colleagues, Ma He quickly packed his things.

In fact, he doesn't have anything to take care of, he is the eunuch of the palace, everything on him is given by the palace, nothing is his own.

He just took out half of the spike necklace and held it tightly in his hand.This is his token of looking for his sister, who has the other half of the wolf's fang on her neck.

He gave the remaining taels of silver and some worn-out clothes to the two eunuchs.

The two eunuchs naturally congratulated him when they received the gift.

"Brother Ma can be regarded as a prosperous man from now on. Don't forget us poor people when you become prosperous in the future!"

Ma He was also very happy in his heart, just thinking that he hadn't left the palace yet, so he shouldn't express his happiness.

"Hi!"

"I was sent away by King Yan's disgust... My heart... oh..."

When the two heard the words, they hurriedly flattered.

"Yes Yes!"

"Brother Ma is the most loyal person, recognized by the palace, none of us can compare..."

While the few people were chatting, the voice of the palace guard suddenly came from outside the door.

"Is Eunuch Ma ready?"

"Get ready and hit the road!"

"In such a hurry?"

The two eunuchs in charge of monitoring were taken aback, and even Ma He was shocked.

What kind of person is the emperor's grandson, who can make the prince so interested that he doesn't dare to delay for a moment!

Now Zhu Di is a frightened bird, and he was whipped by old Zhu Yi during the day, which made him even more nervous.

If it wasn't too lowly to send someone to the door in person, he would have wanted to take the horse and send it to Zhu Yunxi himself.

Ma He didn't dare to delay, he hurried out of the room and bowed his hands towards the two military masters.

"I'm sorry, sir!"

The guards also knew about Ma and "Gao Sheng", so they didn't dare to yell at him.

"Don't bother!"

"We are all following orders!"

"Eunuch Ma, sit still, let's go!"

"Thank you!"

As the carriage moved, Ma He's heart soared.

Originally, he thought that he would die of old age in the Yan Palace, but he didn't want to usher in such a great fortune.

Why did the grandson of the emperor want me personally, but have you heard of me?

This is impossible, I have no reputation in the Yan Palace, how can outsiders know?
Ma He entered the palace with such thoughts that when he was taken to the Qianqing Palace, he didn't understand it when he saw the emperor's grandson.

But he knew that he didn't need to think about it, the most important thing right now was to serve the new master well.

"Slave servant Ma He pays homage to His Royal Highness the Empress Dowager!"

Zhu Yunxi was reviewing the memorial at this time, when he saw that Ma He was coming, he just glanced at it, and then motioned him to stand aside.

Ma He stood aside tremblingly, carefully looking at the layout of the Qianqing Palace from the corner of his eyes.

He read the words on the plaque just before entering the door, this is the Qianqing Palace where only the emperor can live, the grandson of the emperor actually lives here?
As everyone knows, Zhu Yunxi doesn't want to live here either, but if some old man who doesn't want to be named takes over his Prince's Mansion, he can only make do with it here.

In Ma He's eyes, the layout of Qianqing Palace is very simple. There is only a table and chairs, and a rectangular box that keeps "ticking" there, and I don't know what it is for.

However, just as he was looking at the square box and staring at the things swaying left and right in a daze, he suddenly heard the sound of "clang", which made him tremble all over with fright.

Fortunately, his many years of serving in the palace had allowed him to develop a calm personality, which prevented him from exclaiming.

San Dezi on the side heard the bell, and familiarly stepped forward to exchange Zhu Yunxi for a cup of tea, and then stood aside obediently to serve him again.

He was also staring at the newcomer.

Since His Royal Highness has won the favor of His Majesty the Emperor, the palace has never taken the initiative to fill in people.

Although the old emperor stuffed him with many little eunuchs, the grandson of the emperor didn't even bother to look at them, he just let himself take care of them.

However, the little eunuch in front of him was obviously unusual. On the first day he entered the palace, he was left by the emperor's grandson to wait on him. This was a strong threat to Wang De.

Maybe, this kid will take away my position as the manager in the future!
But how to give this little eunuch some eye drops?

Just as Wang De was thinking this way, he suddenly saw Ma He stepping over him and approaching the emperor grandson to study ink.

Seeing this, Wang De was annoyed at this guy's flattering, and at the same time hated himself for staring at him, not even noticing that there was not enough ink in the inkstone!
However, just when he was rushing to sharpen ink for the emperor grandson, he was stopped by the emperor grandson with his eyes.

"Wang De, you don't have to wait on me these days, go and manage the eunuchs in the palace for Gu!"

"what?"

When Wang De heard this, he felt like the sky was about to fall.

The emperor's grandson is too fond of the new and dislikes the old, isn't he just a newcomer, and he's tired of himself, the old one?
After hearing this, Ma He quickly stepped back.

"The emperor's grandson forgives the sin. I hope the emperor's grandson will punish you for coming forward without your instructions!"

Zhu Yunxi looked at Ma He with a bewildered smile on his face.

This man is interesting!
Wang De also looked at Ma He, who was kneeling on the ground, and thought that he had met his opponent this time. This kid is quite high-ranked.

However, before the two of them could react, Ma He spoke again.

"The servant is fortunate to be favored by the emperor's grandson, but the servant is stupid and really can't do any fine work."

"If the grandson of the emperor does not give up, then assign the slaves some rough work of sweeping the courtyard, so that the slaves can do it easily, and will not delay His Highness's important affairs!"

When Wang De heard this, he immediately had a good impression of Ma He.If he can really stick to his duty and not compete with him for favor, then it's not like he can't tolerate him...

The smile on Zhu Yunxi's face grew stronger when he heard this.

This kid can be a man!

"Wang De, go to Nurse Yang's place and ask if the clothes for this autumn are ready, why haven't you come in yet?"

As soon as Wang De heard this, he knew that he was sending himself out, and he felt even more depressed.

"promise!"

After Zhu Yunxi took Wang Dezhi away, he spoke to the horse kneeling on the ground.

"I have a few words to ask you."

"Your Highness, please speak!"

"Did my fourth uncle tell you to keep an eye on me?"

As soon as Ma He heard this, he couldn't help but feel bad, if he didn't say this well, he would die!
"Your Highness, this servant does not want to be a betrayer!"

"Even if His Highness King Yan is no longer the master of the servant, the servant cannot speak ill of him behind his back!"

"In the future, if His Highness despises the slaves and sends them to others, the slaves will still be as loyal to you as they are to King Yan!"

After Ma He said this, he kowtowed "bang bang" to express his affection for not betraying his old master.

Seeing him like this, Zhu Yunxi showed a playful smile on his face.

This kid is so cunning!
This is indeed his test. If Ma He speaks ill of King Yan, Zhu Yunxi will be disappointed instead.

"Not bad!"

"Being loyal to the old master proves that you are a person who values ​​affection!"

"I heard that you have a younger sister?"

When Ma He heard this, his head buzzed.

I am just a eunuch serving others, why does everyone know about my younger sister?

"Your Highness, how did you know about this?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled when he heard this.

"its me……"

"Master Immortal told Gu's!"

"Don't be dazed, tell me about your sister quickly, so I can send someone to find her."

"If fourth uncle finds you one step too late, it will be difficult for you brothers and sisters to meet again!"

Ma He was even more devastated when he heard this, who the hell is the grandson of the emperor? Why did he even know that King Yan wanted to help me find my sister!
