The capital city, Jianchang Hou Mansion.

Zhu Houzhao finished his day of eating, drinking and having fun, returned to his second uncle's house, preparing to take a simple rest, and go back to the East Palace before the gate of the dark palace was closed.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was still immersed in the excitement of visiting Qinlou. The taste was so wonderful. I felt that before I ascended the throne, I first experienced the emperor's addiction.

There are all kinds of women outside, and it seems like choosing a concubine. He can choose any one. He just to prevent being discovered and he cannot drink more. But today he still couldn't help drinking a few more glasses and went out of the palace for several consecutive entertainment. His alcohol tolerance was also slowly increasing.

Zhang Yanling sat on the chair of the Grand Master, holding the hot tea to hang out in his hand, drank a sip, and asked with a smile: "Captain can you have a good time today?"

Although Zhu Houzhao was happy, she never admitted it and said, "I didn't have fun at all! It's better to continue at night. Don't you say that when you are a bridal party, when you are a bridal party, as I am, there is no chance to be a bridal party. You have to spend a few more bridal parties, right?"

"After all, I don't have that interest until the night. The girls can't let go. Every time you urge me to leave, it's a pity that the table is full of good wine and good food..."

Zhu Houzhao opened the conversation and started talking nonsense.

After listening for a while, Zhang Yanling couldn't help but wonder: "This kid, I'll take him out to play. After finishing playing, I don't count on leaving. I'm still picking problems. Who did he learn this trick?"

But thinking of currying against Zhu Houzhao now, Zhang Yanling did not angry with the prince's nephew and explained: "Forgive me, Prince. You were confined by Your Majesty and could not leave the palace at will. Now someone covers you up and you can go out for a walk occasionally... But things will be revealed sooner or later. If you don't go home at night, you will know it once or twice. You don't want to cut off your way out of the palace from now on, right?"

Zhu Houzhao thought about it. Although he didn't have a lot of fun, he came out of the palace and had enough food and drink. He also saw all kinds of beauties. If he was picky, it would be a bit unreasonable, because he had to go to the Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace to pay tribute to him every day at dinner. This is also the filial piety that Zhu Youzang cultivated. Once time cannot pass, it cannot be explained.

"Forget it!"

Zhu Houzhao shook her hand and seemed generous. "I won't care about you like you, my uncle. Oh, by the way, when will I have time? Let's take my uncle with you? It's always the two of us. It's not interesting. It's better to find a few more women, or go to other places to go around. Please help arrange it..."

After saying that, Zhu Houzhao stood up and left.

Zhang Yanling was a little annoyed and cursed in his heart: "You are just an ungrateful wolf, and you can't feed your fill, right?"

But he didn't dare to break up with Zhu Houzhao. After thinking about it, he warned tactfully: "Crown Prince, don't be too arrogant. You can leave the palace and have somewhere to play. That's because I'm familiar with the place and have face. People can help cover it up. If the prince insists on going to another place and is discovered by someone, how can I explain to the emperor?"

Zhu Houzhao frowned: "Why do you mention everything to your father? You can't arrange it for me? Since you can leave the palace, you should walk around and try it out more. What's the point of staying in the same place? Also, I heard that the city is very lively recently, and it seems that the provincial examination is being held. There are many students outside. I want to go out for a while and compare with those people to learn. You can arrange it for me!"

Zhang Yanling had the urge to hit someone, and he felt that Zhu Houzhao in front of him was simply unreasonable.

He began to hesitate, should he teach this kid some lesson?

After a while, he finally suppressed the anger in his heart and thought to himself: "Since you don't care about the trouble, you have taken him out to play several times, there is no need to have a stumble at this time. Isn't this kid just looking for a new place and a new trick to play? Isn't this my specialty? You can always find what you want!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yanling felt a little better, so he brought a playmate when he was out for fun.

...

...

Zhu Houzhao rushed back and finally returned to the palace before sunset.

When he returned to the bedroom hall of Xiefang Palace, the naughty child quickly changed his clothes. Zhang Yuan reminded him: "Your Highness, a palace servant in Kunning Palace will deliver pastries to you during the afternoon. I am afraid that the matter has been passed to the queen. When the prince goes over to greet you, you must answer carefully!"

Zhu Houzhao was a little impatient: "I know, isn't it just someone who came to deliver pastries? As for being so worried? Didn't the mother not come here in person?"

He was muttering, when suddenly an eunuch outside reported: "Eunuch Zhang, can you tell the prince that the empress is here!"

Zhang Yuan's face was as golden as paper, and he was almost scared to death. Zhu Houzhao gave him a blank look, quickly tidied up his clothes, and shouted in anger: "Looking at your unreliable appearance, what's there to worry about? I am standing here alive now, the sky cannot fall!"

After saying that, Zhu Houzhao went directly to open the hall gate. Before pushing the door, he did not forget to sort out the regular clothes of the big red prince with narrow sleeves. Zhang Yuan quickly stuffed the eunuch's uniform that Zhu Houzhao had replaced under the bed.

Zhang Yuan followed out of the hall gate and saw Zhu Houzhao stepping towards the main hall of Xiefang Hall. Before he could catch up, he heard a eunuch shouting: "See the Queen!"

This was something Zhang Yuan had specially told before. If someone came from Kunning Palace in Qianqing Palace, he must shout loudly to make him be prepared.

Zhang Yuan was frightened and his legs were weak, and he almost fell to the ground. He heard Zhu Houzhao's voice coming: "Mother, why are you thinking about going to the East Palace? But are you here to relax?"

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was a completely professional actor. He rubbed his eyes gently, his face slightly tired, as if he had been reading a book for an afternoon and had just come out of the back hall.

Zhang Yuanqiang followed him with energy and looked at Zhu Houzhao first. When he saw Zhu Houzhao covering his mouth and yawning lightly, he was inevitably worried, for fear that Queen Zhang would see the clues.

Empress Zhang was wearing a big shirt, a robe and a gorgeous robe, and a nine-pied crown on her head. She walked over slowly and sat down at the chair that the eunuchs in the central hall had just given her: "Son, my mother and I have someone to send pastries before, why don't you come out to meet?"

Zhu Hou took a look at the palace maids and eunuchs behind Queen Zhang, and was a little dissatisfied: "I don't know who was gossiping about his son's words in front of his mother. He was afraid that the world would not be in chaos!"

A little palace maid behind Empress Zhang was immediately scared and she knelt down and kowtowed: "Grandmaster, please spare me, I dare not make any false statements!"

Zhu Houzhao glared viciously at the little palace maid who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old and shouted: "It's you? I'm giving me a pastry, and I feel arrogant. I think you are from Kunning Palace, so I dare not touch you. What's the matter? Come on, drag it out to fight!"

At this time, Zhu Houzhao wanted to take the opportunity to establish his prestige because he knew that he was back one step earlier today. If he was a little later, his mother would be beaten up if she knew that he was not in the Xiefang Palace. If he could use the help of teaching the little palace maids a lesson this time and beware of others being nonsense, he felt it was necessary.

Queen Zhang looked angry and glared at Zhu Houzhao: "She is the queen of her mother. When will it be your turn to fight?"

Originally, several eunuchs from the East Palace came over. After hearing Queen Zhang's words, they stopped beside each other and waited for Zhu Houzhao's further orders.

These eunuchs were all taken out by Zhu Houzhao's pants when he returned to the palace that day. Later, these people became Zhu Houzhao's most loyal subordinates for their contributions and punishments, and they would do whatever they asked them to do. Even if Queen Zhang said she could not beat him, these people were still waiting for Zhu Houzhao to speak.

Zhu Houzhao was very persistent: "My mother, my son-in-law has been studying in the back wing today. I knew that my mother was sending pastries, but I didn't want to pay more attention to it, so I asked her to go back by herself. She actually went to her mother's place to complain. My mother felt that such a talkative slave was reliable, and that the minister had nothing to say there."

"But the son-in-law believes that there must be rules in the palace, and no one can stir up trouble in front of the mother's back. Now they are just talking bad things about the son-in-law and the mother's queen. What if they say bad things about the father and the mother, or the father and the son-in-law in the future?"

This sentence is reasonable and well-founded, and it also has a bit of persuasion. Empress Zhang couldn't help frowning when she heard this.

Before, Empress Zhang did not want to punish the palace maids around her, but after Zhu Houzhao mentioned the problem so seriously, these palace maids might go to the emperor to complain. Empress Zhang cared about her husband and her son and her husband, so she naturally could not tolerate such a terrible result.

Zhu Youtang was always sick and could not go to Kunning Palace from time to time. Queen Zhang was always worried that the people around her would sow discord. As a result, she looked at the little palace maid who was so scared that she was no longer indifferent, and her attitude had loosened.

Zhu Houzhao struck while the iron was hot and said coldly: "What are you waiting for? Now someone is trying to provoke my relationship with my mother and drag it out and fight twenty... No, fifty big board!"

"ah?"

Zhang Yuan was shocked.

The little palace maid never expected that she would cause such a huge disaster if she just reported the prince truthfully. She walked up with tears in her face and pulled the corner of the queen's skirt, but was dragged away by several eunuchs from the East Palace. The little palace maid shouted heart-wrenchingly: "Empress, spare your life!"

Queen Zhang raised her hand, and several eunuchs could only stop temporarily. The little palace maid thought she had escaped, but she didn't expect Queen Zhang to say in a gloomy tone:

"It's a lot of 50 big boards, and you'll beat someone to death. Just hit twenty boards first, and keep the other boards in the account... Whoever dares to gossip in the future will have the same consequences!"

After saying that, Queen Zhang stood up with some angriness and prepared to leave, but the poor little palace maid cried and shouted that she was forcibly dragged away.

Zhu Houzhao quickly stepped forward, took Queen Zhang's hand, and pretended to be obedient: "My son sent her mother out of the palace!"

After saying that, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but look back at the direction where the little palace maid was dragged away, and thought to herself: "Who told you that you didn't know what happened, and you actually dared to complain to your mother. Now you know how powerful this palace is?"

Seeing that his son was safe and sound, Queen Zhang put on a phoenix chariot and went back to Kunning Palace.

Zhu Houzhao was proud after returning. He knew that with what happened today, unless his parents came in the future, others would not dare to talk casually, because if you were careless, your butt would bloom and even lose your life.
