After hearing the story of his family, Chen Zizhuang angrily threw the brush in his hand, stood up and cursed loudly, "It's too much! The factory guards were able to bear the rampantness in the past, but now why did the imperial guards in the palace just take people directly without passing through the yamen?"

It is not a fault for being angry. Old Man Chen is deeply educated by Confucianism and adheres to rule by man. That is, Old Man Chen believes that as long as the moral level of officials in the country is improved, the officials will naturally be honest and the officials will be clean and clear, so what we need to strengthen spiritual civilization construction. However, the emperor Zhu Hongsan didn't think so. Zhu Hongsan believed that these stinky old men were all mean and retreated without leaving. They must be punished and managed seriously. Therefore, Zhu Hongsan hopes to build a country ruled by law. Zhu Hongsan's spirit of rule of law is still agreed in the cabinet, such as Ma Mingyuan, Tong Yangjia, Fu Wenlong, and others, who are representatives of the Legalists.

Although the cabinet is not unified in its thinking, it is consistent in restricting the rights of factory guards. After all, Ma Mingyuan believes in the Legalists and does not want to be arrested by the Jinyiwei for no reason one day. The Legalists Ma Mingyuan believes in are the state and the emperor violates the law and the common people. Therefore, the rights of the factory guards of Shenwu Dynasty were greatly reduced under the joint suppression of several cabinet masters of the cabinet. However, today Chen Zizhuang heard that even the imperial guards in the palace had the right to arrest people, which really made Chen Zizhuang unacceptable. And the arrest was not someone else, but the representatives of the new generation of scholars who were optimistic about Chen Zizhuang. Although Qian Qianyi and Chen Zizhuang's Guangdong faction had completely broken up, Chen Zizhuang still liked Qian Sunai, a young man.

Now that he heard that Qian Sunai had something to do, Old Man Chen ignored the matter of the cabinet and went out to the door and went to the palace.

The office address of the cabinet is Qianbulang between Hongwu Gate and Fengtian Gate. Various state organs are gathered here. Qianbulang is the office of the central government organs, mainly the offices of the cabinet, the Sixth Ministry, the Governor's Office of the Five Army and the Jinyiwei and other yamen. The office is based on the layout of the East and West Military West. Civil officials are in the East and West Qianbulang, and military officers are in the West Qianbulang. As the center, the cabinet is naturally in the first house of the East Qianbulang, but it is exactly a thousand steps away from Fengtian Gate, and the straight line is 6 or 700 meters away. With the strength of Old Man Chen, he cannot get out of the palace gate for only one hour. Therefore, Emperor Zhu Hongsan cherishes Old Man Chen’s old age and specially gives him a shoulder chariot. This is an unparalleled honor for a minister in ancient times.

The shoulder chariot is said to be grand, but it is actually a chair with two bamboo poles, and then carried by two strong eunuchs. They sit on the chairs without shelter from the wind and rain. They are very simple. However, this thing looks ridiculous, but among the hundreds of civil servants working in Qianbulang, only Chen Zizhuang has such honor, so it is very awesome.

Chen Zizhuang left the cabinet, went to the shoulder chariot at the door, and said to the eunuch: "Enter the palace and go to Wenhua Palace to meet the saint!" Then he walked in the envious and jealous eyes of all the civil servants. Although it was very uncomfortable to sit like this, Old Man Chen's vanity was greatly satisfied. Is this the same thing? You and I have nothing to boast about, but if I have you or not, I will show my identity. Even the Chen family, although he did not sit on the shoulder chariot, saw that his master and other officials traveled differently, he felt that he was better than other families.

After entering Fengtian Gate, he entered the palace city. The Chen family here could not enter. Other civil and military officials who wanted to meet the emperor had to get off their horses and walk on foot when they arrived here. However, Chen Zizhuang had the imperial chariot and directly carried him into the palace city from Fengtian Gate.

When Old Man Chen came outside Wenhua Hall and got off his shoulder chariot, he happened to see Qian Sunai standing outside the hall. Old Man Chen was stunned. Didn’t he say Qian Sunai was arrested? Why did he come here?

Old man Chen stepped forward and asked, "Zigao, weren't you caught by the imperial guards? Why did you come here?"

Qian Sunai was bored when she was waiting outside the hall, but Zhu Luo just asked him to wait at the door, and didn't say when he let him in, so Qian Sunai was looking at the sky. At this moment, he heard someone greeting him and quickly watched the person coming from the other side. Isn't this his uncle, the chief assistant Chen Zizhuang?

When Qian Sunai saw Chen Zizhuang coming, she knew that it was her wife who ran to her parents' home for help. She was grateful and hurried forward to salute.

"Uncle, I didn't expect to alarm you too!"

Chen Zizhuang looked at Qian Sunai's clothes and some injuries, and felt relieved. He was about to ask what was going on, but the eunuch beside him shouted loudly: "The Imperial Concubine is here!"

Now the highest status in Zhu Hongsan's harem is the imperial concubine Ma Ruyan, and then the imperial concubine Qian Yuting, the daughter of Qian Qianyi. However, although Ma Ruyan is the imperial concubine, her background is much lower than that of Qian Yuting, the legitimate descendant. In addition, Qian Yuting has a golden book enthroned by Emperor Hongguang, so in the eyes of some orthodox scholars such as Chen Zizhuang and others, Qian Yuting's status is higher than that of Ma Ruyan. When Chen Zizhuang proposed that Qian Yuting be the queen, it was not entirely because he wanted to join forces with Qian Qianyi, and his background was also very important.

When Chen Zizhuang heard that the imperial concubine was coming, he quickly tidied up his clothes. He forgot to ask Qian Sunai why he was here, and just welcomed the imperial concubine quickly.

Qian Yuting was diagnosed with pregnancy when Zhu Hongsan left Guangdong in September, and has been more than five months now. The sanitary conditions are not in later generations. Zhu Hongsan was afraid that Qian Yuting would make any mistakes and ordered her not to move around and concentrate on raising her baby. Today, Qian Yuting had nothing to do, and was teasing her eldest daughter Zhu Miao to play. The little eunuch in the palace said that Mrs. Qian asked for a meeting outside the door.

Qian Yuting was stunned when she heard that Liu Rushi came. They thought that their father's concubine could come to find her. Back then, his father Qian Qianyi ignored etiquette and accepted Liu Rushi with the etiquette of his wife, which made the Qian family lose their reputation in his hometown in Changshu. His mother Chen even cried many times, so Qian Yuting hated Liu Rushi very much in her heart.

Liu Rushi also knew that Qian Yuting didn't like her, and she had no contact with Liu Rushi. When she entered the palace, she just went to visit her good sister Bian Yujing. Qian Yuting basically didn't come here. But why did she come here today? Qian Yuting originally wanted to see her, but she knew that her father was not at home now, and she was afraid that something important would happen to her family in Nanjing. Although Liu Rushi was hateful, the son he gave birth to his father was his half-brother, so she couldn't ignore it.

Qian Yuting thought about it and wanted to meet him and asked the eunuch to lead Liu Rushi into the palace.

Liu Rushi was still wearing men's clothes when he went out today, and Liu Rushi's face was full of heroic spirit, which made people fascinated. Seeing Liu Rushi's outfit, although Qian Yuting hated his dress, he had to admit that Liu Rushi really knew how to wear clothes. Even Qian Yuting, who was a woman, loved her, even those stinky men.

Qian Yuting held Zhu Miao, who had just turned three years old, and asked coldly: "Why did Mrs. Liu get here today? Is there anything wrong?"

When Liu Rushi heard Qian Yuting call him Mrs. Liu, he knew that this girl was still angry about the past, but she had no choice.

Liu Rushi bowed deeply with the man's etiquette and said, "Imperial Concubine, the civilian woman is here to ask for help today. This morning, the second young master just came back and was captured by a group of imperial guards in the palace. The master was not at home, and the civilian woman had no choice but to go to the palace to ask the imperial concubine for help!"

Liu Rushi said this, which scared Qian Yuting very much. The Qian family now has three male D. Qian Yiai, the eldest brother Qian Yiai, is much older than Qian Yuting. The third brother is Liu Rushi's son, and he is only five years old this year. Only the second brother Qian Sunai and Qian Yuting are about the same age. Qian Yuting was very close to this younger brother in the boudoir. In addition, Qian Sunai is very eccentric and tells her sister a joke or something. Therefore, the relationship between the siblings is very good. Now, when Qian Yuting hears that her younger brother whom she values ​​most is captured, she can't help but feel moved.

"What, Erlang was captured? Who is so bold? My own brother dares to arrest him? Is it Jinyiwei or Dongchang?"

"Evil Concubines, they are not. They said they are the imperial guards in the palace and were arrested by His Majesty's order. The civilian woman had no choice but to come and ask for the imperial concubine!"

Qian Yuting was stunned when she heard that she was the palace guard. She was not the young girl who was young back then. There was no darker place in this world than the imperial palace. If it were the Dongchang Jinyiwei, it would be fine. Maybe Erlang had committed some lawsuit, but now he is the palace guard, which made Qian Yuting unable to touch her mind. Who was going to arrest her brother? Could it be the imperial concubine?

Qian Yuting thought it was impossible. Although Ma Ruyan is domineering now, she and her are not in conflict with each other and have no grudges. She can't reach out to deal with her younger brother. Who is it?

When Liu Rushi saw that Qian Yuting was stunned and said nothing, Liu Rushi shouted anxiously: "My concubine, why are you still standing there? Go and find the emperor!"

Liu Rushi's words reminded Qian Yuting, yes! No matter what, as long as the emperor speaks, there is no big deal! After Qian Yuting thought about it, she quickly ordered someone to prepare the imperial carriage and go to Wenhua Palace to meet the saint.

Qian Yuting came to Wenhua Palace with her five-month-old belly and happened to see Chen Zizhuang and Qian Sunai at the door.

Qian Yuting saw that Qian Sunai had nothing to do, so she felt relieved, as long as Erlang was fine.

Chen Zizhuang saluted Qian Yuting from the side and asked, "Imperial Concubine, why are you here!"

Qian Yuting glared at Qian Sunai and said, "It's not for someone, I came here when I got the news. Erlang, tell me what's going on?"

Chen Zizhuang also asked from the side: "Yes! Zigao, tell me what's going on? Why are the palace guards coming to arrest you? If it was really the emperor's order, I must ask Zigao for justice!"

Qian Sunai was furious when she saw her sister and uncle forcing her to tell the truth. What should I say? She didn't confess to Zhu Luo and the others just now. Now Chen Zizhuang and her sister are not easy to fool. If they don't do it well, everything will be wasted.
