Chapter 845 Uncle Zhongyong Treats Guests

"I have to hurry up and guard His Majesty!" Zhu Yong said, and walked away.

"Brother, stop." Wang Xian stretched out his hand to grab him, and said decisively: "You should control a palace gate now, don't worry about your Majesty's side!"

"This..." Zhu Yong's heart skipped a beat, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his face.He is a dignified Duke of the state who is an extremely human minister, and has been in charge of the palace for many years. If he becomes ruthless, it is not that he has the ability to seize control of a certain palace gate.It's just that there is no will to seize the palace gate without authorization, but it is a serious crime of treason, and you want to copy the nine clans!

"Brother, don't worry," Wang Xian naturally knew Zhu Yong's worry, and he said in a deep voice, "You have the right to do things. Now His Majesty is unconscious, and you are the mainstay of the country. You should be the mainstay to deter Xiaoxiao. When Your Majesty wakes up, you just If you need to apologize immediately, His Majesty will not blame you, but will praise you more!" After a pause, he reminded: "Brother, don't forget what happened last year!"

Zhu Yong's heart was shocked when he heard that, yes, this incident is so similar to a year ago.At that time, His Majesty was in ambush, and his life and death were uncertain. The king of Zhao moved suddenly and was in great danger.It was Xue Lu, Marquis of Yangwu and Liu Sheng, Marquis of Anyuan, who made prompt decisions and also mobilized the troops and horses of King Qin of the headquarters without a will, to control the situation and turn the emperor into safety.But at that time, I was too worried about the consequences as I am now, so I became a coward. If Wang Xian hadn't sheltered me, I would have lost my holy family and become a poor man.

He never expected that after a year, the same situation reappeared, and he still had to make that difficult decision.

It was already winter at this time, and the wind in Beijing was bitterly cold, the sky was overcast and the clouds were drooping, and it was bitingly cold.Zhu Yong, however, was covered in white sweat. Beads of sweat dripped down his cheeks, his throat trembled unceasingly, his eyes flickered for a while, and finally focused on Wang Xian.He saw this guy who was more than ten years younger than himself, but there was only firmness on his face, without a trace of timidity.Can't help laughing at himself, finally nodded and said: "Brother, I listen to you."

Wang Xian shook hands with him vigorously, and said in a deep voice, "Trust me, that's right." Zhu Yong nodded again. This time, he had to be firm and calm too much.

The two parted ways at the corner gate, Zhu Yong walked out and shouted to his subordinates who came up: "Go to Xihua Gate!"

Wang Xian quickly returned to Fengtian Hall, walked up to the prince and grandson who was still kneeling there, ignored the strange eyes of the eunuchs and guards, and whispered to Zhu Zhanji: "Your Highness, you have to enter the hall immediately!"

Zhu Zhanji raised his head and looked at Wang Xian, his eyes intertwined, His Royal Highness instantly read the indescribable but deadly information from his eyes.Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Zhanji stood up with his legs propped up, moved his stinging knees, and staggered towards the gate of the palace.

When he reached the entrance of the side hall, his gait had returned to normal, and he stepped over the high threshold steadily.

In the side hall, Zhao Wang was crossing his arms, looking at his unconscious father with cold eyes.Just as Wang Xian expected, he realized that this was a god-given opportunity for him to usurp power, and he had secretly prepared it.But this matter is too big. Once this step is taken, the world will be turned upside down, the sun and the moon will be reversed, and there will be no way back.So he has to think carefully about how to take each step in the future... Longsheng's nine sons are all different, and his second elder brother must make a decisive decision whenever he is faced with a major event, and he will do it first.He can't be as decisive as the second brother, he always thinks about the way out, and even if it doesn't work, he has to figure out the way to deal with various situations before making a decision.

This is due to character, and no one can do anything about it.

Just when Zhao Wang finally made up his mind, his eyes turned into sharp blades with so much sternness, and stabbed his father, the eunuch's low voice sounded behind him: "His Royal Highness."

Zhao Wang's heart thumped, and he turned around suddenly, and saw Zhu Zhanji standing behind him with a dark face and unkind eyes.I don't know whether it's because of a guilty conscience or what, Zhao Wang's heart is pounding, but fortunately, his face is as white as a crown jade, but it can't show a pale face.

"What are you doing here?!" Zhao Wang was a little annoyed, and shouted at the grandson:

Zhu Zhanji glanced at him coldly, and then moved his eyes to the emperor. He looked at his grandfather lying there with a painful expression, and there was a hint of bright color at the corner of his mouth, extending to the deep decree lines.The grandson then took out his handkerchief and knelt down in front of the emperor's bed, trying to wipe away the trace of disgraceful dragon saliva for him.

Zhao Wang stretched out his hand to block the grandson, and said coldly: "What do you want to do?"

"Get out of the way!" Zhu Zhanji's strength was much stronger than that of Zhao Wang, and he used some Wudang Tai Chi strength to start. After a push, he pushed Zhao Wang staggeringly.

King Zhao took two steps back and bumped into a gold-plated lamp stand. The lamp stand fell and the glazed lampshade shattered to the ground.Only then did King Zhao forcefully stop, and said angrily, "Are you going to rebel?!"

Zhu Zhanji carefully wiped the drool off Zhu Di's lips before he said in a cold voice without turning his head, "His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, be careful with your words."

Zhao Wang was stunned for a moment, knowing that the other party was reminding him of his identity, but how could he show weakness at this time, and said in a hateful voice: "Aren't you apologizing outside? What are you doing here?"

"I plead guilty because my father offended my grandfather, and a son has to be terrified." Zhu Zhanji said slowly: "I came in because I am the grandson of the Ming Dynasty. The king is ill right now, so I have to stay by my side so as not to be afraid." Disorderly ministers and thieves have delusional thoughts."

Zhu Zhanji almost pointed at his nose and called King Zhao a traitor.King Zhao's face was flushed red, he gritted his teeth and said, "I see you father and son wish that His Majesty would never wake up again!"

I don't know whether it was because King Zhao's voice was too loud, or because he was uncomfortable, Zhu Di frowned, and a pained expression appeared on his face.Then Zhu Zhanji turned his head coldly, glanced at Zhao Wang and said: "The emperor needs to be quiet, please ask Zhao Wang to go out."

"You!" King Zhao gritted his teeth, and glared at his grandson with fiery eyes. He knew that it was impossible for him to do the "candle shadow and ax sound", but he had to stay here, so he stood there angrily. On the side, watching Zhu Zhanji kneeling beside the emperor's bed coldly, playing the role of a filial son and grandson, really made His Royal Highness Zhao feel sick.

.

The words were divided into two parts, but it was said that Wang Xian persuaded the emperor's grandson to enter the palace, and nodded to the prince... The prince also responded to him with an apologetic expression... Wang Xian then left quickly. There are also a few Dongchang fans with round hats and soap boots.

Wang Xian beckoned, and several fans rushed over, knelt down on one knee to greet Wang Dudu, and asked respectfully what they could do for them.Wang Xian looked at them with a smile and said, "Where is your factory master?" Before he could answer, Wang Xian said again: "Invite him here, and I will treat him to a drink."

Although the fans know that Dongchang and Jinyiwei will not deal with each other, who dares to provoke the famous and vicious Uncle Zhongyong?That is the fierce god who stepped on Ji Gang's corpse.He hurriedly responded and went to find Zhao Ying.

Although the yamen of Dongchang is outside the palace, there is a formal value house in the Donghuamen of the palace. This is also a proof that Dongchang has a higher status than Jinyiwei and is closer to the emperor.

At this moment, in the heavily guarded duty room, there were two large braziers burning tribute charcoal, which made the walls warm and red.But the old eunuch Zhao Ying, who was sitting on the huanghuali wood armchair next to the north wall, was neither red nor warm, but just as cold and gloomy as outside.

On both sides of the armchair, there stood a group of eunuchs who were punished and in charge of the East Factory, all of them were silent, no one said a word.

Ever since the little eunuch brought Zhao Wang's message and Zhao Ying gave a few simple orders, everyone has been sitting and standing like this.

"Old ancestor," Zhao Ying's godson, Ma De, the eunuch in charge of the East Factory, finally couldn't help breaking the silence and said: "Just go all out, this palace is our world anyway, whoever we want to die, we will die." You have to die, whoever wants to win, whoever can win!"

"Yes, ancestor, don't you always envy the eunuchs of the Han and Tang dynasties?" Someone took the lead, and everyone was ready to move, all of them blushing, "It's done, we don't have to envy them anymore!"

"We can't compare to those seniors," but there were quite a few pessimistic guys who poured cold water there: "Not to mention anything else, most of our East Factory are from Jinyiwei, will these people be with us? Most of the Forbidden Army under the control of our ancestors are the old troops of Cheng Guogong and others, will these people have one heart with us? It’s hard to say!"

"Isn't that simple?!" Ma De rolled up his sleeves and said murderously, "Wang Xian and Zhu Yong are both in the palace, so let's do it!"

"It's not that simple..." The opposition sneered and said, "You are a fool, waiting for you to chop with your neck stretched out there?!"

Zhao Ying squinted his eyes and listened to his subordinates quarreling calmly. At this moment, the thick door curtain was suddenly lifted, and a gust of cold wind blew in. Ma De shivered from the cold. Fanzi was already kneeling on the ground, and said crisply: "Mr. Chang, Uncle Zhongyong wants to treat you to a drink."

Ma De's words were swallowed abruptly, and everyone fell silent, looking at the ancestor.

"What's he up to?" Zhao Ying's eyes wandered across that guy's face. "The gates of the palace are closed, where can we go for a drink?"

"Fengtianmen is on duty..." Fanzi hurriedly replied.

"Haha, how's it going?!" Ma De was immediately excited, staring at the people who opposed him and said: "Someone just wants to wash their necks and wait to be slaughtered."

"Old Ancestor, beware of cheating!" Those who opposed were still opposed, but they obviously lacked confidence.Because Fengtianmen is controlled by people from Dongchang, Wang Xian entertained guests there, obviously he was throwing himself into a trap.

"What else can he do?" Ma De's group obviously had the upper hand, Zhao Ying also stood up, and ordered: "Go to the wine and vinegar noodle bureau to get a jar of 20-year-old Moutai." The old eunuch said He smiled and said: "On our territory, we can't let people buy bars."

"Decree!" Ma De responded excitedly, and went out to make arrangements.

Then a eunuch put Zhao Ying on a sable cloak, a white fox fur scarf and a warm hat.When Zhao Ying walked out of the Dongchang value room, Ma De was already waiting there with the wine jar.

Zhao Ying turned his head to look at the "Liu Fang Eternal" plaque hanging at the door of the value room, and said with a smile: "Go and meet him."
