If I fail to overcome the tribulation, I can only return to the Ming Dynasty and become a prince.

Chapter 44 The female rebel Sun Ruowei
In the past, only two people, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanju, went to the Qinhuai River to listen to music, but today there was an extra Zhu Zhanji.

But it was pretty much the same. The father and son came to the Qinhuai River, got on the boat and sat down respectively. The singing girl who had been waiting for a long time started singing, and Zhu Zhanquan also took out the teapot and started making tea.

"What a fragrant tea! Second brother, you are really enjoying it!" Zhu Zhanji picked up the fragrant tea handed over by Zhu Zhanqu and couldn't help but admired: "Unlike me, eldest brother, I have been running on the street every day during this time. , the boots are all worn out.”

"Okay, big brother, just tell me what you have to say. No need to beat around the bush. Is there anything else between brothers that I can't help you with?" Before coming, Zhu Zhanjuan was still guessing Zhu Zhanji's purpose, but sitting down As soon as he came down and spoke, Zhu Zhanjun knew that his eldest brother wanted to ask for something.

Zhu Gaochi on the side did not care about the affairs between the two brothers. The prince just picked up the fishing rod and put on the bait, then threw the rod into the water and sat comfortably listening to music and drinking tea.

Seeing that Zhu Gaochi didn't speak, Zhu Zhanji hesitated for a moment and then asked Zhu Zhanquan: "Second brother, do you know that grandpa was assassinated on Yu Street on the day his army returned to the city?"

"I heard that because I woke up, grandpa returned to the city early, so the assassin missed it." Zhu Zhanzhen naturally knew about the assassination, but he didn't know what it had to do with Zhu Zhanji : "But I heard that my second uncle detected the news in advance and specially set up a trap to catch the assassins. Many people were arrested."

Having said this, Zhu Zhanju paused for a moment, glanced at Zhu Zhanji, who had a strange look on his face, thought for a moment and said, "If this matter has nothing to do with you, brother, then it's best not to get involved in this muddy water." , the water here is deep! Brother, you can hide if you can, our East Palace is not suitable to get involved in this matter."

"But the problem is that now grandpa asked me to investigate this matter, I can't hide it!" Zhu Zhanji also looked bitter. If he could avoid it, of course he would, but the problem is that now the emperor ordered him to investigate the case. There was no way he could avoid this job.

Hearing what Zhu Zhanji said, Zhu Zhanqi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Brother, just go and investigate. Why are you so lazy and come to listen to music and fish with me and dad? Or are you talking about investigating the case? What kind of trouble have you encountered? I can't help you with this kind of thing. It's okay if I can help you with your brother's advice, but you should avoid investigating the case! I'm not a master of solving crimes like Di Renjie, Bao Zheng, or Song Ci."

"No, I want to ask my second brother if you have any good ideas to get people to talk. I found some clues and captured an assassin's accomplice, but she refused to speak, and I couldn't ask anything. This matter is at a stalemate." Zhu Zhanji poured out his bitterness, hoping that his younger brother could help find a way to get some information or clues from the people he caught.

Regarding this question, Zhu Zhanju looked at Zhu Zhanji with some surprise, and asked in confusion: "I'm going to be punished, I'm going to be punished, what else can I ask for? Brother, you can't even attack an assassin." Bar?"

"The problem I caught is a woman. It's not easy to be sentenced." Zhu Zhanji looked a little distressed and a little nervous at the same time.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanju couldn't help but sigh and shook his head and said: "Not only is she a woman, but she is also very beautiful, isn't she? Brother, you are just looking at sex!"

As soon as Zhu Zhanju said these words, Zhu Gaochi, who was fishing peacefully at the side, immediately looked at Zhu Zhanji and warned him: "Zhanji, you just investigate the case, don't really have anything to do with the assassin. , that will harm our whole family!"

Although Zhu Gaochi usually looks unassuming, his political acumen, which he has developed since he participated in political affairs when he was the crown prince of Yan, should not be underestimated. Just by hearing what Zhu Zhanji said, he knew that his son The mind is not pure.But how can one get involved in such things as assassinating the king and killing the driver?Not to mention that Zhu Zhanji also fell in love with a female assassin!
Zhu Zhanjuan's face on the side was a little serious at the moment, but he didn't pay too much attention to this matter. He just comforted his fat father, looked at Zhu Zhanji and asked: "Brother, what do you think? I mean. Are you using gentle means to coax words from that female assassin, or are you really interested and want to have something with this girl?
If it's the former, it's simple, you give me the person, and within three days I'll make her recall things that she can't even remember.

But if it's the latter... you'd better give me the person, I'll ask you what you want to know, and then you go to grandpa to apologize, and then ask for grace. You are just an accomplice. If grandpa is willing to show mercy, That's just one sentence. "

"Really? Second brother, do you really have a way to get her to talk?" Zhu Zhanji was immediately happy. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't ask anything, and he really liked the girl, he wouldn't be so entangled.

Zhu Zhanjun nodded and said while drinking tea: "As long as you are a human being, you will have weaknesses. If you can break through her weaknesses, then she will have no secrets in front of you. The reason why people are loyal is just It’s just that the price of betrayal is not enough.”

"You can't say that. There are still loyal people in this world." Zhu Gaochi on the side disagreed with Zhu Zhanju's words, but he didn't say much.

After all, in the eyes of this prince, although there are loyal people, they are rare. Most people in the world are still ordinary people, and they can be bought as long as they can get the right price.

This is probably what the so-called human heart is.

But Zhu Zhanji didn't care about this. He just said happily: "That's great. As long as you can get the words out of her mouth, second brother, it will be easy for grandpa!"

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with you, so I'll just help you this time. Who made you my eldest brother?" Zhu Zhanju laughed, looked at Zhu Zhanji's happy look, shook his head helplessly and asked: "Where is that girl now? Have you executed anyone?"

"I wasn't sentenced, but I was put in jail. I originally planned to torture her for a while to see if she would tell her." Zhu Zhanji looked a little embarrassed. He had no choice but to beg his brother. .

Zhu Zhanju couldn't help but shook his head, not optimistic about Zhu Zhanji's approach: "Although she is a woman and only an associate of the assassin, she can participate in such an important matter as assassinating the king and killing the driver without being implicated afterwards. It's enough to show that this woman is not simple. She is most likely a trained and determined person. You can't open her mouth with this method, so let me do it! By the way, what is that girl's name? What is it? Have you found the person?"

"The girl's name is Sun Ruowei, and she is the daughter of the owner of an antique shop." Zhu Zhanji said a name that made Zhu Zhanqi's expression change drastically.
