When Zhu Cijiong was about to set off, another team came from the east.
This team is small, only about a dozen people.
The leader was wearing a brand new eunuch uniform.
After revealing his identity, the man came to Zhu Cijiong unhindered.
After seeing the other person's appearance, clothes and the badge in his hand, Zhu Cijiong exclaimed: "Wang Zhixin! What are you doing..."
Wang Zhixin straightened his back and responded in a deep voice: "In reply to your Highness, I have been ordered to supervise the East Factory again. I heard that your Highness is suppressing a rebellion, so I came to help."
Zhu Cijiong still couldn't believe his eyes. He looked Wang Zhixin up and down: "But... this is too sudden..."
Zhu Cijiong didn't feel it was sudden, but he felt it was impossible.
Although the Governor of the East Depot was appointed by the emperor, the emperor would often listen to the opinions of his ministers.
After all, many things require the cooperation of ministers.
If the ministers strongly oppose, the emperor will often choose to compromise in order to stabilize the court.
Wang Zhixin got into big trouble and was demoted to Nanjing to guard the Xiaoling Mausoleum.
Unless you have made contributions, it will be difficult to be activated again.
His sudden reinstatement now is neither reasonable nor in line with the style of his father, Emperor Chongzhen.
Looking at Zhu Cijiong's suspicious expression.
Wang Zhixin took out the imperial edict appointing him as the commander-in-chief of the East Factory.
After reading the contents of the edict, Zhu Cijiong became even more confused.
Because Wang Zhixin holds an imperial decree...
If the problem can obviously be solved by an imperial edict, why do we need to use an imperial edict, which has stricter review and more complicated procedures?
What is even more bizarre is that this imperial edict was actually approved by the civil servants.
Zhu Cijiong, who was anxious to find someone, was already a little confused.
The successive questions made him even more confused.
He patted his forehead to sober himself up a little: "Wang Zhixin, who conveyed the will to you?"
"It's Li Ruo Lian."
"Oh," Zhu Cijiong seemed to understand something, and he continued to ask, "What are you doing here?"
"This servant is here to solve the trouble."
"What's the trouble?"
"Whatever troubles the court and His Highness have, I will solve them."
Zhu Cijiong didn't have time to think about it. After leaving a message saying he was looking for the prince, he got up and headed for the Xiaoling Mausoleum.
Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow along.
The King's Heart is no exception.
On the way to Xiaoling Mausoleum, he inquired about everything that had happened before.
When they arrived at Xiaoling Mausoleum, Qin Yiming was still chasing Zhu Guobi.
Deputy General Qin Zuoming came forward and said, "I am here to see Your Highness."
Zhu Cijiong asked hurriedly: "Have you found my elder brother?"
Qin Zuoming shook his head: "I haven't found His Royal Highness the Crown Prince yet, but I found someone when I was searching the mountain."
"who?"
"Duke of Wei, Xu Wenjue."
Zhu Cixiong gritted his teeth and said, "Bring him here."
Not long.
Xu Wenjue, who was tied up, was brought over by several soldiers.
Before he could get close, Xu Wenjue cried out loudly, "Your Highness, please spare my life! Your Highness, please spare my life! I did nothing. It was all Zhu Guobi who did it."
Zhu Cijiong snorted coldly and asked, "Do you mean that Zhu Guobi forced you to privately mint Ming Yuanbao? Forced you to rebel?"
Xu Wenjue suddenly began to stammer.
Zhu Cijiong was not in the mood to waste time with him on this issue, so he asked directly about the whereabouts of Crown Prince Zhu Cilang.
Xu Wenjue only knew that Zhu Cilang had entered the depths of the Xiaoling Mausoleum, but he did not know his final whereabouts.
Zhu Cijiong was very disappointed.
Xu Wenjue was frightened to death by Zhu Cijiong's expression.
In order to show off, Xu Wenjue thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, I really don't know the whereabouts of the prince, but there is someone who may know."
"who?"
"Ni Yuanlu! When the prince entered the Xiaoling Mausoleum, Ni Yuanlu also took refuge in the Xiaoling Mausoleum. Mei Chun, the commander of the Xiaoling Mausoleum Guard, can testify to this! If..."
"Oh?" Zhu Cijiong couldn't help but look back.
The others also looked back following Zhu Cijiong's gaze.
In the crowd, Ni Yuanlu, with his white hair and beard, was very eye-catching.
In order to find the prince, he also followed the team to the Xiaoling Mausoleum.
Zhu Cijiong ordered: "Come here, please invite Mr. Ni over."
Ni Yuanlu came to Zhu Cijiong with an expressionless face and bowed: "I pay my respects to His Majesty Prince Ding."
"Mr. Ni, you don't have to be so polite. I have a question and I hope you can answer it truthfully."
"Your Highness, please ask, I will tell you everything I know."
"When my eldest brother entered the Xiaoling Mausoleum, Mr. Ni also took refuge inside. Is this true?"
"have."
"What did you talk about?"
Ni Yuanlu thought for a moment: "The situation in Nanjing and the war outside."
Zhu Cijiong asked again: "When will we separate?"
"I can't remember the details, I just remember that the war was raging outside."
"What did you talk about before you separated? Did my eldest brother say where he was going?"
Ni Yuanlu thought for a moment and replied, "Before we parted, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said he was going to the Xian Palace to worship, but he didn't say where he was going."
Having gained nothing, Zhu Cijiong nodded helplessly and had to give up.
Wang Zhixin, who was standing next to him, couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
He pouted and came to Ni Yuanlu, and asked in a threatening tone: "Ni Yuanlu, are you telling the truth just now?"
“Every word is true.”
"You'd better tell the truth, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
Looking at Wang Zhixin's arrogant look, Ni Yuanlu smiled.
Wang Zhixin was very puzzled: "Ni Yuanlu, what are you laughing at?"
Ni Yuanlu smiled and replied: "I am happy for you. It is a great joy to be appointed as the governor of the East Factory again. How can I not smile?"
