Family ancestor Zhu Chongba: What happened to getting your daughter pregnant?

South of the city.

Night fell again, and the entire Kyoto was shrouded in darkness.

There is no moon tonight, and there is a chilling air in the cold air.

In the alley, dozens of royal guards gathered, staring intently at Liuguang Cloth Shop on the other side of the street.

The leader is none other than the commander Jiang Wei!

He understood what His Majesty was thinking, so he chose to do it at night, because only in this way could the matter disappear without anyone seeing into its secrets.

"Commander, it's almost time."

One of his subordinates looked at the night and gave a rough warning.

"Your Majesty has a decree not to let anyone go!"

"After tonight, no one is allowed to mention this matter again. Anyone who disobeys this order will die!"

Jiang Wei narrowed his eyes, stared at the closed door of Liuguang Buzhuang, and said coldly.

When all the subordinates heard this, they all bowed their hands in response, and no one dared to ask more questions.

"Do it!"

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Wei raised his right hand and waved lightly, finally giving the order.

After giving the order, dozens of Jinyi guards rushed towards Buzhuang like dozens of hungry tigers and rushed in!

Soon, there was a sound of fighting in the Buzhuang, fierce but short!

After all the dust settled, Jiang Wei showed up.

Except for one prisoner, everyone in Buzhuang had been killed. There were no casualties among the dozens of Jinyi guards. The opponent was no match at all.

Jiang Wei walked up to the prisoner and looked at him condescendingly, with a faint sneer on his face.

He had always had a bad relationship with King Yan, so he didn't leave any leeway and showed no mercy.

The only person who survived was none other than the shopkeeper of Liuguang Buzhuang, Wei An!

"Why did you suddenly attack Buzhuang? What on earth do you want to do?!"

"Even if you are royal guards, you can't harm the people at will, right?! Isn't there no royal law in Kyoto?!"

Wei An looked up at Jiang Wei, gritted his teeth, and asked fiercely.

"You're not scared at all?"

Jiang Wei raised his eyebrows, looked at Wei An with interest, and asked lightly, unable to help but reveal a smile.

"Is there any use in being afraid?! Can you be merciful when I beg for mercy?!"

"What crime have we committed?! Why are you so cruel?!"

Hearing Jiang Wei's sudden and unreasonable rhetorical question, Wei An was obviously stunned for a moment, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and then he pretended to be calm and asked dissatisfiedly.

"Where is Zhang Yuren?!"

Jiang Wei sneered, changed the topic and asked, completely ignoring Wei An's question.

"Who is Zhang Yu?!"

"I do not know what you're talking about!"

Wei An shook his head and replied in confusion, but his heart had already sunk.

"Deceiving yourself."

"You think I don't know anything, do you?!"

Jiang Wei shook his head and said disdainfully.

"What do you know?! Even I don't know what happened?!"

"I'm just an honest businessman. How did I offend you Jinyiwei?!"

Wei An still looked confused and continued to ask in confusion.

"An honest businessman? Hum hum..."

"How can we allow you to cause chaos under the emperor's feet?!"

"Since you don't want to say anything, then there's no need to say anything!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yu pulled out the knife from his waist and cut off Wei An's throat in an instant!

A stream of blood suddenly spurted out!

Wei An opened his eyes wide, covered his throat with his hands, and looked at Jiang Yu in disbelief, but he could not say a word!

Immediately afterwards, Wei An fell straight backwards and became motionless in an instant!

"We have never been here, and no one has died here."

Jiang Wei said coldly, put away the knife, and turned around to leave without looking back.

A group of Jinyi guards hurriedly bowed to say goodbye, and then followed Jiang Wei's instructions and began to clean up the scene, disposing of the corpses and blood stains, making it look like nothing had happened.

...

Nine Nether Realm.

Yanyu Tower.

In a private room, Zhu Yunxi was sitting at the table in front of the window with a glass of wine in his hand, with a look of relish on his lips.

Yanyulou's pear blossom wine is the best among wines and has always been his favorite.

Hong Yuan stood aside respectfully and remained silent.

Feihu had informed Hongyuan about the destruction of Liuguang Buzhuang, and Hongyuan had also reported it to Zhu Yunhe.

Zhu Yunxi knew that this was Zhu Yuanzhang's intention, and it was not for anything else, just because Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to protect his son, King Yan and Zhu Yunwen, and did not want the outside world to know that the two men were secretly fighting for the position of crown prince.

That's why he handled it like this, hoping to suppress the matter. Although he felt unhappy, he didn't worry about it because his goal had been achieved.

Through this incident, not only did the unwarranted "traitor" be uncovered, but Jinxiu Palace and King Yan were seriously injured and their power was compromised. More importantly, Zhu Yuanzhang began to be suspicious of Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Di, making the two People gradually lost Zhu Yuanzhang's trust!

Once this happens, these two people will not be able to restrain him for a long time, giving him time to speed up his plan to consolidate his position as grandson!

This is more than killing two birds with one stone? !

"dong dong dong..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Hongyuan paused, quickly walked to the door, and opened the door.

The person standing outside the door is none other than the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Tower, Chang Ping!

After Xie Linzhou's case was settled, Changping was released. However, Sun Xuan, the housekeeper of Xie's house who also served as a witness, was not so lucky. He had already been implicated and died in prison.

Originally, it was impossible for him to come out alive, but considering that he was a key witness for Xie Linzhou's collusion with the party, and because Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to conceal the suspicion that Zhu Yunwen and King Yan were secretly competing for the throne, Changping survived by luck.

This matter must be left with some evidence to convince everyone.

"See Your Highness!"

Changping quickly walked into the box, knelt down and bowed respectfully.

"no."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and waved his hand, then poured a glass of wine himself.

"You did a good job on this errand. I'll reward you."

Zhu Yunxi slowly pushed the wine glass to the table and said lightly, with a hint of approval between his eyebrows.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Chang Ping looked up after hearing this, and thanked him in panic. He quickly got up and came to the table, picked up the wine glass, turned his head and drank it down in one gulp.

"In the past month, Tianxianglou's business seems to have gone from bad to worse? I heard from Zi Ning that this month's sales are less than last month?"

"Shop Manager Chang, you boasted about Haikou and claimed that you would surpass Jiaofangsi. What, are you going to break your promise?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at Changping and asked with interest.

"I have mismanaged my humble position. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

Chang Ping couldn't help but trembled when he heard this, and hurriedly knelt on the ground again, his face full of fear.

"I don't care for idlers. If you apologize like this in the future, say less. What I want is results."

"If you still can't do it within half a year, then I will take back Tianxiang Tower and leave it to others to take care of it."

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and said calmly.

"You must go all out for your humble job!"

Changping nodded heavily and answered decisively.

Zhu Yunxi curled his lips and sneered, raising his hand to signal Changping to get up.

"Your Highness, Cao Yan is here."

At this time, a voice came from outside the door.

"Go back."

Zhu Yunxi narrowed his eyes and waved his hand towards Changping.

Changping saluted hurriedly, took a few steps back in fear, and quickly turned around to leave with a look of awe on his face.

Zhu Yunxi watched Chang Ping leave, with a faint smile on his lips, and raised his head to drink the wine in the glass.

No one in Kyoto knows that he is the real master behind Tianxiang Tower who has been fighting against Jiaofangji for many years!

When Changping opened the door to leave, he happened to bump into Cao Yan waiting outside the door with a maid in purple.

As the directors of the two largest okiyas in Kyoto, the two were naturally familiar with each other. However, when Cao Yan saw Changping walking out of the box, he was stunned for a moment, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

As Changping left quietly, Cao Yan quickly walked into the box. The maid in purple closed the door and stood guard outside, not allowing anyone to approach.

"See Your Highness!"

Cao Yan took a few steps forward and bowed respectfully.

"sit."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and pointed to the chair opposite him and said lightly.

"How dare you, a lowly official..."

Cao Yan was stunned for a moment and waved his hands hurriedly.

"I ask you to sit down, why don't you dare?"

"Master Cao is indispensable for this incident. I have always made clear rewards and punishments. I will never forget your contribution."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said meaningfully...
