At that time, Zhang Daokun was imprisoned, which started from the kidnapping of Gu Jinzhi.

But it is suspected that his kidnapping of Gu Jinzhi was not the internal reason for his imprisonment.

Since the emperor deliberately put him in jail, he left him for several months before he was killed, which shows that Zhang Daokun is still valuable.

After hearing the news about Jiang Liang Kaixuan, the first thing the emperor did was to destroy the Zhang family. The little value of the Zhang family had been used up, which was self-evident.

These things are related to the overall situation of the country. If Zhu Zhongjun inquires around, once the emperor finds out, it will arouse his vigilance.

Zhu Zhongjun dared not walk around anymore.

He and Gu Jinzhi were waiting to return to Luzhou with peace of mind.

Zhu Zhongjun almost couldn't wait to leave the capital. Only by leaving the capital can his heart calm down.

What those who wander in the stormy waves need most is to have a peaceful harbor. Stop and rest first, and then take a breath to get revenge. This is Zhu Zhongjun's mood at this moment.

But there can be no one in Beijing.

In case of any change, a court official needs to speak for Zhu Zhongjun, and someone needs to inform him.

So two days before leaving, Zhu Zhongjun secretly visited several ministers overnight.

On the afternoon of the 19th day of the first lunar month, Gu Jinzhi was still talking from the Gu family.

Relatives and friends at home all knew that she left Beijing tomorrow, so they came to say goodbye.

The aunt also came with everyone.

Gu Jinzhi was surrounded by everyone and said something polite to them with a smile.

It was afternoon, and it was late, and everyone stood up to say goodbye.

Gu Jinzhi and Song Paner sent everyone to the gate.

After everyone left, Song Paner asked Gu Jinzhi: "I'll have meals here tonight?"

Zhu Zhongjun did not come back. He went out in the morning.

Gu Jinzhi said it was OK.

During dinner in the evening, Song Paner tried hard to think that the atmosphere would be better, but everyone was not happy. Song Yanzhao was also present. Seeing that Gu Yanzhen and others were not energetic, he thought that Gu Jinzhi was leaving tomorrow, so he should not say anything to adjust the atmosphere. He also remained silent.

.

"... When will the prince come back?" Gu Yanzhen was depressed, not knowing what to ask, so he picked up a sentence and said casually.

He asked Zhu Zhongjun several times when he would be back.

Gu Jinzhi had no choice but to tell him again: "I said I would come back after dinner, and I guess I will be back in a while."

"What did he do?" Gu Yanzhen asked again.

"I don't know, dad." Gu Jin's way.

Song Paner glanced at him hard.

Gu Yanzhen also felt that he had asked more than once. He stopped the topic in awkward manner.

After dinner, Zhu Zhongjun still did not come back.

Gu Jinzhi called Haitang and asked her to go back to the palace of the palace to see if Zhu Zhongjun had arrived home. Haitang returned and said, "The prince just arrived home. The prince said, "I don't know if I have eaten dinner here, so it's hard to come here rashly.

After the meal, he came to pick up the princess..."

Haitang went to invite him, and Zhu Zhongjun must have known that he had already had a meal here.

He didn't come, and even said such a lot of polite words, which shows that he didn't want to come.

Song Paner and Gu Yanzhen understood each other, but did not think much, and said to Gu Jinzhi: "Go back. Don't wait for the prince to come and pick him up. We will set off tomorrow and have a good rest..."

Gu Jin's way is.

Gu Yanzhen led Brother Xuan to send Gu Jinzhi.

Crossing the corner gate. Gu Jinzhi said goodbye to his father and brother, and asked the maid to lock the corner gate.

When he arrived at the royal palace here, Gu Jinzhi said to Haitang: "Thank you sister for covering it up for us..."

Zhu Zhongjun didn't come back at all. Before coming to Gu's house, Gu Jinzhi told Haitang to help cover it up.

Zhu Zhongjun has been very busy these days, and he only came back after midnight last night. I am afraid that today is the same, so Gu Jinzhi is preparing for the future.

Haitang smiled and said, "Madam asked me to serve the princess. The princess is Haitang's master. Haitang will do whatever you ordered, and she can't afford to be the princess' thanks."

Gu Jinzhi stopped talking and took Haitang to the main courtyard.

Sure enough, Zhu Zhongjun secretly went home after midnight.

Gu Jinzhi didn't sleep.

She did not disturb the maid, but helped Zhu Zhongjun change his clothes and fetched water for him personally.

"Has the matter been done?" Gu Jinzhi asked him.

Zhu Zhongjun put a warm handkerchief on his face and said, "It's not enough to do it. Those who are willing to accept bribes are greedy for money and fear death. When we are favored and rich, they will naturally help me; once we are in a state of decline."

, there is nothing left…”

Gu Jinzhi no longer asks.

The next day, Gu Jinzhi woke up early.

She called Zhu Zhongjun to get up.

The couple took some time to wash up, and after breakfast, they went to Gu's house first.

After kowtowing to Gu Yanzhen and his wife, they went into the palace to say goodbye.

The Empress Dowager was fine at the beginning and told them to be careful on the way, to live a good life in Luzhou and to increase their tribute as soon as possible. She also told Gu Jinzhi to love Zhu Zhongjun and to be kind to Zhu Zhongjun; she also told Zhu Zhongjun to be polite to Gu Jinzhi and not to give Gu Jinzhi

Seek trouble.

After talking a lot, the emperor went to court.

The Yulin Guard had already been waiting at the Meridian Gate.

As usual, the emperor also gave a few words of advice.

His eyes couldn't help but look at Gu Jinzhi's face, his expression suddenly dimmed, and then he smiled and said be careful on the road.

Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi knelt down and saluted him and thanked him.

The two turned around and went out, and their backs gradually disappeared at the gate of Renshou Palace. The queen mother's tears suddenly became blurred and her vision became blurred.

She turned around hard and quickly walked into the inner hall.

The emperor personally sent Zhu Zhongjun and his wife to the square in front of the hall of Taihe Gate.

The prince's emblem has been waiting for it.

More than thirty Yulin Guards were surrounded by them.

Zhu Zhongjun supported Gu Jinzhi's hand and personally served her as a symbol. For such symbols, the rules should be Zhu Zhongjun first, and then Gu Jinzhi went up from the servants to the service.

When the emperor saw Zhu Zhongjun so humble in front of Gu Jinzhi, he looked at Zhu Zhongjun more.

Zhu Zhongjun smiled, not caring about it.

He saluted the emperor again, and then he became a symbol.

The elephant slowly sets out from Taihe Gate.

From Taihe Gate, passing by the Imperial Bridge, you will reach the Meridian Gate.

Leaving the Meridian Gate is equivalent to leaving the palace.

The eight horses pulled the elephant and walked very quickly. After a moment, they arrived at Duanmen; after passing Duanmen, they were Chengtianmen. After leaving Chengtianmen, they were equivalent to leaving the imperial city.

The emperor stood in the square inside Taihe Gate and did not move for a long time.

The capital city was still cold in late lunar month. There was no wind today, and the chill was slightly relieved, and the emperor did not feel the chill either.

He did not come back to his senses until the eunuch beside him called him.

He turned back to the imperial study room.

The eunuch presented a note to Liang.

When the emperor opened it, it was related to the Triumph Army of Annan. In another four or five days, Yuan Pinghou would arrive in the capital.

The emperor already had plans in his mind how to reward Yuan Pinghou.

The commander of the Jinyiwei was originally two people, one was Tan You and the other was Zhang Daokun.

The emperor never killed Zhang Daokun, not because he imagined that the Zhang family could be rekindled, but because he was planning Zhang Daokun's position. Once Zhang Daokun died, the position of the Jinyiwei commander Tongzhi must be someone to seek, and the emperor would be in a dilemma at that time.

So, he kept Zhang Daokun until today.

Now, the position of the commander of the Jinyiwei Tongzhi has been vacant, and the son of Yuan Pinghou can be placed.

Yuan Pinghou had only two sons. He took them to the battlefield. This kind of sentiment of defending the country and disregarding the family should be rewarded with great strength. Give the courtiers an example.

"It should be able to reach the capital for twenty-five years." The emperor pondered himself.
