Zhu Zhongjun stayed at Gu's house and slept beautifully all night.

The conversation with Gu Jinzhi was very pleasant and put him in a good mood.

Zhu Zhongjun no longer cared about the emperor's dirty deeds.

As long as Gu Jinzhi can be of one mind with him, Zhu Zhongjun will not be afraid of anything.

Judging from the emperor's behavior yesterday, there may be twists and turns in the marriage.

Zhu Zhongjun got up early and said to Gu Jinzhi: "I'll go to the palace and tell the queen mother what happened yesterday."

He will use rhetoric that is beneficial to him and Gu Jinzhi, so Gu Jinzhi is not worried.

She nodded.

Zhu Zhongjun went to the outer courtyard and changed his clothes.

The coolness after yesterday's heavy rain continued today.

The wind blows on the face, like a veil gently lingering, very comfortable.

Zhu Zhongjun changed into a blue cocoon silk gown, and entered the inner courtyard again, and went to the main courtyard with Gu Jinzhi to have breakfast, before entering the palace.

Before they left, someone came from the palace and invited Zhu Zhongjun to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is the place of the early dynasty.

At this hour, the early morning has not yet ended.

Inviting Zhu Zhongjun to go now is definitely not for personal matters.

Zhu Zhongjun thought about it in his heart.

During his year in Luzhou, although he pretended to be crazy, he did a lot of things.Now that he is healed, are the courtiers going to settle accounts?

"...You didn't do anything important, did you?" Gu Jinzhi frowned slightly, "Zhu Zhongjun, we're going to get married in just over a month. Don't play smart, you'll be fooled by your smartness and delay the marriage."

Although the words are not pleasant, the purpose is still to marry him.

Zhu Zhongjun felt as if he had eaten honey, and said, "Don't worry. There will be no delay."

He followed the people in the palace to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Sure enough, the morning court in the Hall of Supreme Harmony did not end.

The emperor's face was very pale, pale and irritable, his brows were tightly knit together.

When the courtiers saw him coming in, their eyes fell on him.

Zhu Zhongjun walked up the hall calmly, gracefully and gracefully, and knelt down to salute the emperor.

When his knee touched the cold ground, his heart became a bit stubborn: King Luyang was also born in the emperor's family, but he was born a few years later.Why should you be willing to be a minister?

These thoughts can't get rid of, he shouted long live, but he was very sincere.

"Luyang Wang Pingshen." The emperor's voice was hoarse.

After not sleeping all night, there was another quarrel just now, and now the emperor is exhausted.

What did Zhu Zhongjun stand up for?

"The king of Luyang was summoned to the palace because Wang Yushi and the first assistant had a few questions to ask. The king of Luyang should answer truthfully, as if I were interrogating myself." The emperor said.

Zhu Zhongjun said yes.

The chief minister wanted to interrogate him himself, so, did the Henan incident come to light?

Why only looking for him?

King Jian's fief is in Henan, and King Jian can't get away with it.King Jian didn't come, so it shouldn't be a matter of Henan.

So.It's about Luzhou...

Zhu Zhongjun tried his best to keep his smile, like a cute child.

Xia Shoufu bowed to Zhu Zhongjun first.Then I asked: "My lord, I want to ask you, is there a girl named Wu Qianlan in your palace in Luzhou?"

It turned out that she...

This made Zhu Zhongjun puzzled all of a sudden.

He had calculated thousands of times, but he didn't expect to talk about Qian Lan.

Everyone knew that Qianlan was in his mansion, so there was no need for Zhu Zhongjun to lie.Convenience: "Yes."

Censor Wang Xian showed a proud expression.

Many courtiers breathed a sigh of relief.

The emperor frowned even tighter.

His irritability could not be concealed.

"Then, my lord, please tell me carefully. Miss Wu Qianlan's identity and origin." Xia Shoufu asked respectfully with his expression unchanged.

Zhu Zhongjun glanced at everyone's reactions from the corner of his eye, and then secretly glanced at the emperor, knowing that something was wrong with Qianlan.

But he didn't know what was wrong.

If you don't know the problem, you don't know how to avoid it, and avoid saying what you shouldn't say.

Zhu Zhongjun pondered for a moment, then asked Xia Shoufu: "What's wrong with Qianlan?"

"My lord, please answer the old minister's question first." Xia Shoufu remained respectful, "Your Majesty and all the ministers are waiting..."

Zhu Zhongjun had no choice but to say: "Wu Qianlan is the daughter of Wu Bai, the commander of the Shoucheng Guards. She entered the palace when I was 12 years old. At that time, I was so stupid that I didn't know why I let her in. After that, she lived in the palace. The palace. Because I don't understand the world, there are servants in the mansion to take care of it. I don't know the specifics..."

What he meant was that he and Qianlan were not that close.

When he was stupid, others sent Qianlan to his house.

Zhu Zhongjun thought, by saying this, there shouldn't be any obvious clues.

Xia Shoufu said, "Qian Lan is Wu Bai's daughter. Wu Bai is the commander of the capital of Shoucheng and a great official of the imperial court. Doesn't his daughter come from a humble or a slave?"

Those who are not humble or slave are not allowed to buy or sell.

Zhu Zhongjun never sold Qianlan.

So he replied: "Yes, Qianlan is a girl from a good family."

At the beginning, Wu Bai gave Qianlan to Zhu Zhongjun, saying that he wanted to be Zhu Zhongjun's predecessor, which meant a concubine.However, as the concubine of the prince, she should be managed by the concubine or partial concubine and reported to the court.

Generally, a normal prince, even if he doesn't have a main concubine, will have a partial concubine.

It is unreasonable for someone like Zhu Zhongjun to have a concubine first without having a main concubine or a partial concubine.

Is it necessary to seize this to punish him?

He doesn't have to take responsibility for the inner house.

The concubine Zheng hasn't passed the door yet.

Zhu Zhongjun became more and more confused about what to do.

After Zhu Zhongjun finished speaking, there was a lot of chatter below.

He knew he was wrong.

It's just that he didn't understand what was wrong.

Zhu Zhongjun has been shrewd all his life, and he can always adapt to emergencies.

He remained calm and looked at everyone innocently.

The emperor slapped the table heavily with the hand of the emperor, and shouted angrily: "This matter is over. Why is Wu Qianlan a woman from a good family? Let it go, are you too busy to panic?"

The emperor was protecting Zhu Zhongjun.

Zhu Zhongjun thought it was the emperor who gave him a stir.

If Wu Qianlan is not a woman from a good family, Zhu Zhongjun can understand this matter.

But Wu Qianlan is a girl from a good family.What's wrong with her entering the palace as a concubine?

Zhu Zhongjun pursued political struggles, and he seldom cared about staying at home.

He didn't even pay attention to Qian Lan...

He just did some research and found out that Qian Lan was Ning Xi's lover, and that she was Wu Bai's only daughter, she was beautiful but stupid, there was nothing suspicious about her.

"Your Majesty!" Censor Wang Xian stood up and interrupted the emperor's angry shout loudly. "The king of Luyang personally admitted that Wu Qianlan is indeed a woman from a good family. She has been in the mansion for five years. What the minister said is in line with the law. If stupidity is an excuse for not obeying the law, what prestige does the law have? When the Taizu made it The law. It is to rule the country with strict codes. The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Does the King of Luyang want to show mercy outside the law?"

The emperor was choked.

The king of his country can never go up and scold the laws of his ancestors as nonsense.

Otherwise, the court will be wrong.

But making a fuss about this matter, it is indeed suspected of intentionally punishing the King of Luyang...

The emperor is not afraid of losing to King Luyang in love, he is afraid of losing beautifully.

"Zhongjun. You step back first," said the emperor.

Zhu Zhongjun thought to himself, he broke the law.

what method?

he does not know.

this age.It is a society ruled by man, and laws and regulations cannot surpass the emperor.

The so-called laws and regulations are nothing more than human feelings, that is to say, those laws and regulations are like nonsense in front of the powerful, and have no binding force at all.

Once the emperor uses the law to deal with the prince, it means that the emperor wants to get rid of this person.

Laws are but excuses.It doesn't matter if you know it or not.

The way for the prince to save his life is definitely not to abide by the law.

so.He doesn't know the law.

What's the use of his research on things that are useless and used to control civilians?Zhu Zhongjun doesn't look at things that don't help at all.

Today, the courtiers actually use the law to make an argument.

Among the dignitaries in the entire capital, apart from not daring to overstep the imperial power, who didn't overstep the law?

Why did you take him alone?

Do you mean the emperor?

So why was the emperor angry again?

Besides the emperor, who wants to have trouble with him, or even compete with the emperor?

Zhu Zhongjun walked out of the palace quickly.

He did not enter the inner palace, but returned to Gu's house.

Gu Jinzhi is waiting for Zhu Zhongjun.

"What's wrong?" She met Zhu Zhongjun and asked him.

Zhu Zhongjun also ignored the profuse sweat, and told Gu Jinzhi what happened in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Hurry up, ask someone to get this law, I want to look it up, what's wrong with Qianlan." Zhu Zhongjun said.

Gu Jinzhi said: "Use the law to talk about the prince? This is the emperor trying to embarrass you..."

Zhu Zhongjun also guessed like this at the beginning.

"I want to see what law has been violated." Zhu Zhongjun said, "In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the emperor did not behave like he ordered. I am his younger brother. If I commit a crime, I will lose face to the royal family. He thought You shouldn’t make a fuss about this matter against me. If you dare to find fault with me, there should be a lot of power behind it..."

He silently thought about the authorities in the capital.

The Tan family, the Gu family, and the Jiang family, these are the three giants.

Zhu Zhongjun is closely related to the Gu family, and the Gu family will not harm him; Lord Jiang's family has been away for more than a year, so he probably won't be free.

The rest is the Tan family.

"The Tan family?" When Zhu Zhongjun thought about it, Gu Jinzhi suddenly spoke, as if she was talking to herself.

Zhu Zhongjun remembered a past event.

At that time, a girl from the Tan family hugged Gu Jinzhi's leg and called her aunt.

That girl is the concubine daughter of Tan You, the eldest son of Tan's family...

Gu Jinzhi was a little suffocated: Why might Zhu Zhongjun's difficulties be related to her?

"Go and find this legal order first." Zhu Zhongjun said, "I want the latest one from this dynasty."

Gu Jinzhi called Wei Rui and asked her to find Si Jian.

Gu Jinzhi gave Si Jian ten taels of silver and told him to get the legal order quickly.

Si Jian had to die.

After an hour, Si Jian came back.

There are thirty volumes of laws and regulations in this dynasty.

Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun started to read separately.

"Zhu Zhongjun..." After flipping for a while, Gu Jinzhi called Zhu Zhongjun.

What she held in her hand was the volume of Li Ling's "Crime of Rape".

"Prostitution..." Gu Jinzhi pointed to the prostitution in the law, and showed it to Zhu Zhongjun, "What you and Qian Lan committed was prostitution!"

Zhu Zhongjun snatched it away and looked carefully.

He compared them word by word.

What is adultery | residence, how to punish after committing adultery | residence, written clearly...
