Chapter 325: What's the point of not giving up a crime?

An imperial guard led the carriage slowly heading towards the imperial study room, and came to the hall near the main hall, and the carriage stopped.

Zhou Ze got off the car first, and then Ning Wang followed him down. On the steps not far away, Lu Jiu had already received the news and walked down the steps with a smile on his face. He could feel that he was really excited, but he was trying hard to restrain himself.

"I wish you a blessing to Your Highness Ning. I haven't seen you for many years. Can you be safe?"

Ning Wangxu helped him. Lu Jiu always took good care of him. He was not the superficial care, but protected him several times to avoid the prince's difficulties and avoid punishment. Although it has been many years since then, Ning Wang still remembers this.

"Thank you, my father-in-law Jiu, I am fine. I see that my father-in-law Jiu has not changed much from his ten years ago and has a good body. I feel relieved. Is there anyone else in the imperial study room?"

Lu Jiu smiled, and the folds on his face were laughing, and he whispered to take away King Ning's carriage and horse, then bowed and said.

"Thank you for your concern."

As he said that, the man had come to Ning Wang, his voice was extremely low, and his speech was not as slow as before, and he said quickly:

"Zhang Tianshi was inside, talking about the details of the investigation of the Crescent Valley case. The saint was furious. The old slave thought it was just right to go in at this time. I am afraid that the prince and the others would come over to inquire later."

King Ning didn't say nonsense, but bowed slightly to Lu Jiu gratefully. This sentence had already said too much information, and it was at least true that it could make Master Zhang take the initiative to come to the imperial study room.

And it is not groundless to find the prince later. This is something that Lu Jiu could only feel by the old emperor for the rest of his life. King Ning looked at Old Xu with a smile.

"Zhou Ze and I will come in, Lao Xu will wait outside."

When Lu Jiu heard this name, he was stunned and couldn't help but look at Zhou Ze for a few more times. He had already remembered who Zhou Ze was. Being able to be taken to Beijing by King Ning had already explained everything.

"It turns out that he is the third son of General Zhou's family. I have a sluggish vision."

Zhou Ze was slightly stunned when he could know the original owner's father and bowed to Lu Jiu quickly. It was completely the etiquette of the younger generation.

"Young-in-law Jiu can remember my father. The boy is moved. I don't know that my father-in-law and my father are old acquaintances. Please forgive me for your crime."

Lu Jiu waved his hand and looked at Zhou Ze without that smile, but instead seemed to have emotion.

"No, not bad, General Zhou can rest in peace."

After Lu Jiu finished speaking, he glanced at Lao Xu.

Old Xu had an ice-filled face and had no nonsense. He nodded slightly and stood in front of the door of the Imperial Study Room. The eunuch next to him quickly gave up a seat. His face was neither sad nor happy, and Lu Jiu couldn't help but take a look.

He seemed to think of something, but he didn't say anything, and directly led King Ning into the imperial study room. As soon as he came in, he heard the roar of the old emperor.

".How dare he?"

With the roar, a sound of things falling out sounded, and the things on the Yushu desk were smashed everywhere. Zhou Ze stepped over the memorial on the ground, followed King Ning, and walked closer together.

Master Zhang just lowered his head and didn't say much, but turned his body to the side, after all, he felt everything at the door.

Lu Jiu quickly ran to the old emperor, picked up all the memorials on the ground and placed them on the imperial desk, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

"Sage, please see who is coming. It's Your Highness, Your Highness, you're talking about it all the time?"

Zhou Ze lowered his head slightly and held back his laughter. This father-in-law Lu Jiu was really amazing. He reminded the old emperor that his son was coming and that he should stop being angry. He also said his name at least not to recognize the wrong person.

The old emperor raised his eyes and happened to see King Ning kneeling and bowing, narrowing his eyes slightly and tilting his head, as if he was very unfamiliar with the person in front of him.

"Sons, please see the father!"

The old emperor waved his hand and felt that the action seemed a little indifferent. He quickly got up, walked to King Ning, pulled the person up, and looked carefully up and down.

"It's been more than ten years, and Jue'er has been away from the palace for more than ten years. You are becoming more and more like your mother."

Zhou Ze quickly looked at King Ning secretly. Fortunately, King Ning didn't have too many expressions, just lowered his head slightly, and Zhang Tianshi behind him did not leave King Ning.

This discovery made Zhou Ze slightly stunned. Although Zhang Tianshi respected the second prince, he was just the kind of respect for the prince. The eyes of King Ning just now looked different, and seemed to have some other emotions.

"The father has not changed, exactly the same as he was more than ten years ago."

Zhou Ze understood the pun of Ning Wang, but the old emperor raised his head and laughed, patted Ning Wang's arm with both hands, turned around and returned to his seat, and quickly waved his hand to Lu Jiu.

"Parent Lu was stunned and was very worried, and he quickly gave him a seat!"

Lu Jiu quickly arranged for the eunuch to come in, clean up the ground, and then put three chairs on it. Zhou Ze was a little embarrassed. He just knelt down and bowed to King Ning just now. He was really uncomfortable to be given a seat now.

Seeing that Zhou Ze was not sitting, King Ning quickly bowed and introduced:

"Father, this is Zhou Ze, the governor of Luzhou, Nanping Road. The previous battle of Erchen resisting the Western Zhou Dynasty was the contribution of the governor of Zhou. Later, he saved Erchen once. He happened to go to Beijing to discuss the flood control embankment with the Ministry of Industry, so he went to Beijing together."

The old emperor tried hard to search for memories. The name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Zhou Ze? It seems to be familiar?"

Lu Jiu approached the old emperor and said in a low voice:

"The third son of General Mingwei, Zhou Yifu, was the top scholar appointed by the saint last year. He went to Hejiang. There were also generals from the Ministry of War in the northern border, and he was fighting for the black fire bomb he designed and manufactured."

After saying that, Lu Jiu stepped back, the volume was actually heard by several people present. Zhang Tianshi also stood up and stepped forward and said:

"Not only that, in the past few months, the entire Luzhou area has received nearly 100 sedimentary cases. The ability of governor Zhou to make a case-breaking decision is really admirable."

This sentence made the old emperor slightly stunned, and even Lu Jiu looked up at Master Zhang Tian.

Who is Zhang Tianshi? It is a magic needle to maintain the Tang Dynasty. He never participates in party struggles or expresses opinions. Today, he is rare for decades to be able to actively praise people.

The old emperor kept nodding and waved his hand to Zhou Ze who was kneeling down.

"Zhou Aiqing is flat and gives him a seat!"

Zhou Ze sat down honestly and was introduced by Master Zhang like this, which was already eye-catching enough.

What he was worried about now was that Zhang Tianshi said that he had dissected the body of Hu Hua Duwei. In this way, with the old emperor's suspicion, he didn't know what he thought of.

As soon as I sat down here, the old emperor asked a few simple questions about whether there were any or not, but it was not on the spot anyway. Even Ying was the concubine of King Ning, so Lu Jiu needed to remind him.

King Ning gave him face, and did not say anything, answering whatever he asked. When he said this, the old emperor changed his tone and his face was a bit serious.

"Duke Qing and your grandfather used to be in a life-long relationship. It seems that you have taken good care of you in the southern border, right?"

Ning Wang smiled, shook his head constantly, and then said:

"The father was joking, and the grandfather had never sent anyone to him before. What else can the son minister get for him?

I would be grateful if I could get less taxes from Guangyuan to the southern border, otherwise all the refugees would come to the southern border, and my sons would be under great pressure."

The old emperor shut up, looked at Lu Jiu, coughed and continued:

"This time, I heard from the prince that the Zhenbei Army has arranged people to come and pick you up. Your place is already long, why don't you pick it up?"

King Ning laughed again.

However, this time my smile was a little bitter, and then I looked up at the old emperor and said directly without any hesitation:

"The father is most aware of the situation in the southern border. The Zhennan Army has not allocated food and wages in recent years. The son-in-law plundered a county and was able to barely maintain it. The son-in-law's memorial was written one by one, but I don't know if it was not submitted or what.

So to be honest, I didn’t think the court could allocate the food and salary this time, so I just asked the Zhennan Army to draw 500 people to wait in the military camp. After all, according to the news, it had already been allocated a month ago and it has not arrived. I thought it was "
