Chapter 297 Hits should come naturally, hits are not always strong
Zhu Mai suddenly thought that if he was angry, spoke too much, or scolded him, would this bastard do something... stupid in anger?
Now everything in this clique will disappear due to this incident.
Zhu Mai Feng forced herself to calm down, and she began to ponder who or who was provoking the relationship between her and Wu Zheng and what purpose was to achieve? Could it be that the Tartars were doing it in vain or bribing the people in the cottage?
"Who?" Zhu Meisu suddenly spoke fiercely, "Who could it be?"
"Your Highness... I am guilty!"
Suddenly hearing this sentence, Zhu Masumi turned from anger to shock.
She felt chill in her heart when she saw Uncle Zheng kneeling in front of her and claiming to be guilty.
She realized that she might not be able to explain clearly about this matter.
Zhu Mai asked mutely: "What are you guilty?"
But Uncle Zheng just kowtowed and cried, not saying a word.
Zhu Moe's heart sank little by little.
"At this time, are you still unwilling to say it?" Zhu Mi's voice seemed empty, "Is this really what you did?"
Uncle Zheng suddenly raised his head and said with tears in his face: "Your Highness, this is done by the old slave alone. If you want to kill and cut, the old slave alone will bear the responsibility. Now I will explain it to the Hou Jinghai and let him deal with it. I will never implicate Your Highness!"
Even though Zhu Mai had guessed it, she could not help but be unable to contain her anger after she had confirmed it from Uncle Zheng.
"You take it? Can you afford it?" Zhu Mi's tone became sharper, "Why? What exactly do you want to do?"
This is not because of Zhu Mai. In this era, the master and servant are very related. In the eyes of outsiders, these two people are one person, which means that Uncle Zheng’s words and deeds often represent Zhu Mai.
This is also the reason why even the prince has to show kindness and laugh with the eunuch in front of the emperor.
Once such a scandal of the king assassinating ministers is revealed, who would believe that Uncle Zheng, a rootless eunuch, would assassinate a hot-handed master of Hou for no reason?
This is why Zhu Ma asked why.
Zheng Shu cried and said, "When Your Highness learned that Wu Xiaomei was a descendant of Jianwen, she showed fatigue and wanted to give in to the position of generals and governors. I am really unwilling to accept it for Your Highness... But what's the use of unwillingness? Jinghai Hou has the most powerful army in the court, and is close to each other. Whether it is public or private, Wu Zheng will definitely follow the inheritance of the Wu family and stand on the side of the descendants of Jianwen. The oldest slave is worried that when he arranges it properly, his Highness will regret it if it is launched."
Zhu Ma was speechless when she heard this. What was Uncle Zheng’s intention?
"So you bought the assassination?"
Uncle Zheng suddenly became excited. He raised his head and said, "Although I am a eunuch, I have been escorting Your Highness from north to south for more than a year, and I have already shared life and death with Your Highness, honor and disgrace. To say a very disrespectful thing, I regard Your Highness as... my child. How can parents watch their children be forced and bullied? Therefore, I was anxious and made money do this."
"Then why... are you confessing this to me now?" Zhu Masu almost hissed.
Uncle Zheng knelt on his knees and cried forward, crying with heartache, begging, "Your Highness calms down and take care of your health. I have a cheap life and death, but your Highness inherits the royal family, and you must not hurt God because of this. I originally thought that you could remove the great harm for Your Highness, but I didn't expect that Wu thief was very lucky, so I was rescued by my subordinates. When I heard that the four soldiers who were assassinated that day were arrested, I felt that the matter was exposed, so I ordered the four small flags who accepted Old Third's money to commit suicide that day. I thought that this would be cut off the clues of Wu Zheng's investigation, but I didn't want to reveal it. Today, Wu Zheng sent someone to send a message to him, saying that he wanted to invite Old Third to the banquet, and the old Third knew that this was irreversible. I thought about having a fight with Your Highness, so I wanted to say goodbye to Your Highness, and ask Your Highness... to take care of him!"
Listening to Uncle Zheng’s words, Zhu Ma was completely out of control. She understood at this time that Wu Zheng had really had evidence.
Thinking of Wu Zheng's harsh questioning before, Zhu Moe's heart suddenly broke.
This is a chasm, and no matter how you explain it, it may not be able to eliminate the gap between the two sides.
As long as there is a conflict of interest between the two.
Suspicion is a chronic poison that will silently erode all resistance.
Once it appears, it cannot be eliminated for life.
Zhu Mo Yu burst out with tears, and strings of tears fell on her knees.
She understood that even if she went to explain it clearly with Wu Zheng now, Wu Zheng would be suspicious of herself and would never fully believe it. This was really planned by Uncle Zheng.
No matter how much I pick it myself, I can't pick it out.
Moreover, how could Zhu Mai be willing to let Uncle Zheng die?
Not only Uncle Zheng, but also Zhu Mai. All relatives committed suicide, were killed or disappeared in this catastrophe. Uncle Zheng asked Zhu Mai to have a weight in his heart, which was no less than his relatives.
what to do?
Zhu Mo looked at Uncle Zheng with tears on his face, both hated and pity.
Finally, Zhu Mai slowly stood up, walked forward, helped Uncle Zheng up, "Go to the banquet with me."
Uncle Zheng was shocked and hurriedly refused, "Your Highness must not be involved. The old slave went alone to take over this matter. Wu Zheng had no reason to pursue the matter again."
Zhu Mai sighed and said, "After you take on this matter, Wu Zheng may not be able to pursue this matter anymore, but can he believe it in his heart? Do you really believe it? This knot in his heart may always exist in his heart and there will be no more time to let go. And there is no possibility between me and him."
This is true. No one in Wu Zheng's position could believe that Zhu Mai was not involved in this matter.
Often, it is speculated that it was Zhu Ma who instructed the assassination, and after the matter was exposed, he pushed Uncle Zheng to be a scapegoat.
Therefore, it is useless to explain this matter, but it becomes darker and darker the more you describe it.
There is only one possibility, that is, the mutual trust between the two sides has reached a point of transcendence.
But this is impossible. Perhaps Zhu Mai Shi has not taken over as a ruling state and has no conflict of interest. Zhu Mai Shi and Wu Zheng can naturally reach this transcendent level. But now, the two represent their own different interest groups, which is absolutely impossible.
Uncle Zheng understood the meaning of Zhu Ma's words, and he kowtowed "all of them" and said, "It's all because of my stupidity. I have to let Your Highness touch you. I will never redeem you for the death..."
Zhu Mai bent down again and helped Uncle Zheng up, "It's over, and it's useless to say this. In this way, I will go to the banquet with you. First, I will give him an explanation, and second, I will protect you from being thorough."
Uncle Zheng burst into tears and muttered: "Old slave...Old slave is a bastard, I deserve to die, and I have caused this humiliation to your highness."
Zhu Mai sighed: "There should be a fate, and there will be no fate... Don't force it! This is my life!"
