Under Fang Ru's threat and offensive, Zhang Daoquan didn't even dare to explain for a while, he was in a cold sweat, and he couldn't stop wiping it with his sleeve. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)

Previously, the contact between Zhao Junchen and Zhang Daoquan had always been in charge of Xu Qingyan. And although Xu Qingyan seems to be arrogant and unreasonable, it is very easy to deal with Zhang Daoquan, an old Jianghu, as long as he does not give Xu Qingyan a chance to be angry, and by the way, he can always be fooled.

But Fang Ru is different, since the beginning of the meeting, he has taken the initiative everywhere, leaving no room for anything, every word, between the implicit threats, it is even more direct to Zhang Daoquan's heart, and in addition to being strong, he will make all the pros and cons clear one by one, and the power and truth are all occupied, so that Zhang Daoquan can't resist at all.

Seeing Zhang Daoquan's panicked appearance, a trace of disdain flashed in Fang Ru's eyes, and he said: "People can be smart, but they must not treat others as fools. Your little thoughts, little abacus, as a fù Taoist family, can I understand it in my heart, is it not clear to my master? Originally, according to my meaning, according to what you have done these days, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are ungrateful, and you should be dealt with strictly, kill one by one, and uproot your Tongji Temple, including your foundation in Lu'an Mansion, and kill them all, and I have already told my lord about this idea. ”

Hearing Fang Ru's words, Zhang Daoquan's body trembled, and finally couldn't hold back the panic in his heart anymore, and knelt in front of Fang Ru, his face was pale, and his voice trembled: "Please forgive Madame, the villain will never dare anymore, and he will definitely do his best to do things for Lord Zhao in the future, and he will never dare to have a ...... in his heart again."

Fang Ru ignored Zhang Daoquan's pleas for mercy and assurances, and a trace of impatience and regret flashed appropriately, and he waved his hand: "It's useless for you to say these words to me, how to deal with you depends on what my master means." It's a pity, although I want to be strict with you, but my lord finally relented, remembered the old feelings, and decided to give you another chance. ”

Speaking of this, Fang Ru lowered his head, so that Zhang Daoquan could clearly see the coldness flashing in his eyes: "Remember, this is your last chance, if you disappoint my master again, even if the master doesn't say anything, I will never let you Zhang Daoquan, let you Zhang Daoquan, let you Zhang family old and young, let you Tongji Temple, no one can leave the capital alive, understand?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Daoquan relaxed, but he was even more nervous, and hurriedly reassured: "Thank you Lord Zhao for your mercy, thank you Madame for your mercy, the villain assures that Wei Ping's matter will definitely do his best to investigate it in the future, and he will definitely give Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao a satisfactory answer." ”

Fang Ru smiled coldly and said, "Wei Ping's matter, how to investigate, is your duty. Not to mention that you haven't found out clearly now, even if you do, you don't need to ask for credit. What's more, since Wei Ping is dead, his affairs are just small matters, and I came to see you this time, but I told you a few things according to the meaning of my master. ”

Zhang Daoquan nodded again and again, and said, "Please also ask Madame to command." ”

"The first thing, from now on, Xu Qingyan has other things to do, I will be responsible for your side, how my person is, now that I have been in contact, you can guess some of it, meritorious service will be rewarded, and if there is a mistake, it will be severely punished, so from now on, you don't have luck in your heart, treat me as that Xu Qingyan to fool, otherwise what will happen, you think about it yourself."

Zhang Daoquan, who had already seen Fang Ru's power, couldn't help but feel bitter, but in the next moment, the gods became more and more respectful and humble, and they still nodded again and again.

Seeing Zhang Daoquan like this, Fang Ru's attitude seemed to have softened a little, his tone was a little lighter, and he said: "This second thing, starting tomorrow, there will be some believers who will come to your Tongji Temple one after another to take refuge, and by the way, I will help you do things in Tongji Temple, and if you have something, you can also order them." It's just that you don't have to worry about what these people want to do in the future, but you have to try to meet their requirements, and you must never slack off. In the future, you will no longer be responsible for the matter of finding out the news, and you will be able to develop the influence of believers with peace of mind. ”

Zhang Daoquan's mind was complicated, like joy and sorrow, Fang Ru's thoughts he could naturally understand that in the future, collecting news would be the responsibility of those "believers" who came to take refuge, so that he Tongji Temple seemed to save a lot of trouble and a lot less danger, but thinking about it the other way, it also meant that his status in Zhao Junchen's heart Zhang Daoquan was greatly reduced.

However, in the face of Fang Ru, Zhang Daoquan didn't dare to disobey after all, so he nodded again and again, and all kinds of guarantees did not need to be mentioned.

Fang Ru took out a list from his sleeve again, handed it to Zhang Daoquan casually, and said: "Here is the list of those believers, you will burn it after you read it, there will be fewer people at first, but in the future, there will be more and more believers who will come to you, you just know it in your heart." ”

After a pause, Fang Ru continued: "As for this third thing, it is the most important thing. ”

While speaking, Fang Ru took out a list again and handed it to Zhang Daoquan: "The characters in this list, you have to focus on contact in the future, even if you can't develop them into believers, you must develop the people around them into believers, you are the best at this, you have to be close and responsible, but after developing these people into believers, you don't have to worry about it anymore, and after that, I will arrange the people here to be responsible for the rest of the matter." ”

Regarding this arrangement, Zhang Daoquan is familiar with the road.

When he was still in Lu'an Mansion, Zhao Junchen gave him a list and asked him to try his best to develop the characters on the list into believers, but the original list, most of the people on it were court officials, although the positions were low, but most of the positions were important.

And in this regard, Zhang Daoquan has always done well.

It's just that this time the list is very different from the previous one, most of the people on the list have no official positions, except for some eunuchs in the inner court, the rest are some unknown figures, and the people in charge of the subordinates are the like, among which there are more characters under the Seven Princes Zhu Hejian, Prince Zhu Heyu, and several old mansions.

"Please rest assured, Mrs., others dare not say, with the current means and momentum of our Tongji Temple, the villain is still a little sure of developing these people into believers."

Hearing Zhang Daoquan's assurance, Fang Ru's mood seemed to be a little better, and he no longer let Zhang Daoquan continue to kneel, and slowly said: "You get up, don't keep kneeling, I'm just a shì concubine in the Zhao Mansion, and now you are also the leading figure in the capital, what kind of system do you kneel to me?" ”

Zhang Daoquan saw that Fang Rushen was slowing down, and he also stood up with a smile, and said flatteringly: "Madame is too modest, although the villain doesn't know much, but I have also heard that in Lord Zhao's mansion, you are no different from the main room, the affairs of the adult's mansion, no matter how big or small, are all in your hands, Lord Zhao's trust in you, but it is extraordinary, how dare the villain treat you as an ordinary concubine?" If you want me to say, you are the official lady of the Zhao Mansion, even if Lord Zhao marries the main family in the future, this Zhao Mansion will still be based on your intentions, Mrs. ”

Different from the previous acting, hearing Zhang Daoquan say this, Fang Ru couldn't help but be a little happier, and the corners of her mouth were subconsciously upturned.

Seeing Fang Ru like this, where did Zhang Daoquan not know that his sycophant was finally in the right place? This was followed by numerous compliments that were not mentioned. Most of them praised Fang Ru for Zhao Junchen's ability to do things, and Zhao Junchen valued him, and Zhao Junchen and Fang Ru were "husband and wife harmony".

However, Fang Ru is not Xu Qingyan after all, such a compliment and flattery, although it can make Fang Ru happier, it can't disturb Fang Ru's mind, let alone make Fang Ru get carried away.

Therefore, Zhang Daoquan's compliment and flattery didn't take long before he was interrupted by Fang Ru waving his hand: "There is no need to say this compliment." I have one last thing to tell you here. ”

"Please ask Madame to give me orders."

Although Fang Ru's mood seemed to be improving, Zhang Daoquan still didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said.

Fang Ru smiled lightly and said: "This last thing is very good for you, what my lord means is that since your Tongji Temple has now gained a firm foothold in the capital, and its influence is growing, then you must take a long-term view, don't stick to the capital anymore, from today on, you also have to find mō to cultivate some talents, as long as there are enough people, then you Tongji Temple can go outside the capital to spread the teachings, build temples, and in terms of money, you have my family to help you, and you don't have to worry about the future." ”

Hearing Fang Ru say this, Zhang Daoquan was overjoyed and thanked him again and again.

………

When Fang Ru finished "burning incense and praying for blessings" in Tongji Temple, under the congratulations of the people in Tongji Temple, he did not delay anything longer, and left in a carriage.

On the way back to the house, sitting in the carriage, thinking about the previous contact with Zhang Daoquan, Fang Ru frowned lightly, and secretly thought: "This Zhang Daoquan is exquisitely thoughtful, no wonder Xu Qingyan can't deal with him, it's a pity, as the old man said, this smart person is often difficult to control, and has all kinds of sīyù, and it is difficult to be concentric." But those who can control zhì, although loyal, are often not smart enough. ”

In Fang Ru's opinion, in this world, the only person who has the mind, the means and is extremely loyal to Zhao Junchen may be herself.

Even, in Fang Ru's opinion, she herself is even more loyal to Zhao Junchen than Xu Qingyan.

Not to mention that Fang Ru's heart has been on Zhao Junchen all these years, and for the sake of Zhao Junchen's interests, she can do whatever it takes and ignore it, just saying that this meeting with Zhang Daoquan is enough to prove that her loyalty is higher than Xu Qingyan.

It's not that Xu Qingyan is not loyal enough, but when Xu Qingyan does things for Zhao Junchen, he always has an urgent urge to prove his ability to Zhao Junchen, and sometimes in order to prove himself, he will even sacrifice Zhao Junchen's interests unconsciously.

Take this meeting with Zhang Daoquan as an example, if Xu Qingyan is in charge, when threatening and intimidating Zhang Daoquan, Xu Qingyan's words may be "My family has the intention to kill you as an example, but I pleaded for you and finally won you one last chance" Yunyun.

But in Fang Ru's mouth, such words became "I have the intention to make an example of you and kill them all, but my family is soft-hearted and decided to give you another chance."

The two seem to have the same effect, both can achieve the purpose of warning, and even Xu Qingyan's statement can make it easier for him to control Zhang Daoquan, but in the same way, it will also reduce Zhang Daoquan's identification with Zhao Junchen.

However, Fang Ru's statement gave Zhang Daoquan the impression that "the king of Hades is good, but the little ghost is difficult", although Fang Ru himself played the villain, but it can increase Zhang Daoquan's sense of identity with Zhao Junchen.

When doing things for Zhao Junchen, he only considered Zhao Junchen's interests in his heart, and nothing else, which was the embodiment of Fang Ru's loyalty to Zhao Junchen.

"However, with such a difference, I must find a way to make the master notice, so that the master will value me more."

Thinking of this, Fang Ru secretly thought again.

Fang Ru is not the kind of woman who is stupid and only knows how to give, what she did for Zhao Junchen was just to increase her weight in Zhao Junchen's heart, and there were some little women who had careful thoughts.

"Although the villain doesn't know much, he has also heard that in Lord Zhao's mansion, you are no different from the main room, the affairs of the adult's mansion, no matter how big or small, are all managed by you, Lord Zhao's trust in you, but it is extraordinary, how dare the villain treat you as an ordinary concubine? If you want me to say, you are the official lady of the Zhao Mansion, even if Lord Zhao marries the main family in the future, this Zhao Mansion will still be based on your intentions......

Thinking of Zhang Daoquan's flattery before, Fang Ru's eyes flashed with a moment of distraction, and he muttered to himself: "Is it the main room......"

Thinking of his origin, and thinking that Zhao Junchen had already reached the age of marrying the main family, Fang Ru couldn't help but sigh softly.

………

Just as Fang Ru was thinking about it, the carriage back to the house suddenly stopped.

At the same time, outside the carriage, there was a commotion, as if some people were scolding each other, and some people were cheering, which was quite chaotic.

"Go see what's going on."

Fang Ru was in a hurry to go back to the house to see Zhao Junchen, and seeing that the trip was delayed, she was a little unhappy, frowned, and instructed Xiao Bi, who was waiting on the side.

Seeing Fang Ru like this, Xiaobi hurriedly got out of the carriage, and not long after, she came back in a huff, and it was a little weird.

Seeing Xiaobi like this, Fang Ru couldn't help but wonder and asked, "Xiaobi, what's going on?" ”

Xiao Bi said angrily: "Madam, after you go back, you have to teach today's coachman a good lesson, this coachman in order to take a shortcut, actually took us to the Eunuch Alley, this Eunuch Alley is close to the left, has always been the most smoky miasma, and it is said that yīn is extremely heavy, we are avoided on weekdays, how can we pass by here and delay?" There are now two groups of eunuchs fighting in front of them, and another group of eunuchs are watching the excitement, and the road is blocked. ”

After listening to Xiaobi's explanation, Fang Ru also frowned.

In the late Ming Dynasty, although the eunuch had no yang roots, no descendants, and would be looked down upon, but in a way, it was also a very promising profession, at least, there was an inner treasury to support, food and clothing were not lacking, if you were lucky, you could gain a firm foothold in the inner court, and you would have the power and money, and you would be majestic everywhere.

Although the inner court has been repeatedly suppressed in recent years, in the eyes of ordinary people, they still dare not underestimate the eunuchs in the inner court.

In this way, it is natural that many people are lucky and want to enter the palace to become eunuchs, either because they are forced to do it, or because they are lazy to do it.

But what is quite cruel is that when the inner court of the Ming Dynasty selected new eunuchs, the selection range was "those who are from the palace." That is to say, those who intend to enter the palace, just to participate in a selection, must first cut off their yang roots, so that if they fail to be selected in the end, the tragic fate of these "palace people" is needless to mention.

In the late Ming Dynasty, the inner palace would recruit eunuchs every three years, and each time there were as many as two or three thousand "self-palace people", which seemed to be a lot of people, but in fact there were more unsuccessful candidates.

In fact, in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the number of these unsuccessful "self-palace people" was extremely large, and it has become one of the more serious social problems in the capital.

In order to survive, in order to wait for the next selection, they have exhausted a number of legal or illegal means, some begging, some being public, some pit méng abduction, and the miasma of its black smoke is needless to mention.

And the place where these "self-palace people" gather is called "Eunuch Lane" by the world.

In the eyes of many people, places like Eunuch Alley, even if you just look at it from a distance, will be full of bad luck and avoid it.

It is precisely because of this that it is not difficult to understand why even Xiaobi, who has always been supple and submissive, would be so angry when he found that his carriage passed by Echinen Lane.

………

Thinking of the various things in the "Eunuch Alley", Fang Ru was naturally not happy, snorted lightly, and said: "After I go back, tell the housekeeper that the coachman and groom who led the way today, as well as a group of entourage, each deducted a month's salary, among them, those who raised yì were directly driven out of the Zhao Mansion, and they wanted to walk from the Eunuch Alley in order to take a shortcut, but no one thought of asking me for instructions beforehand, but it was a loss of rules." ”

Xiaobi nodded, and said: "Madam, you didn't take care of things a few days ago, and the whole house has indeed forgotten the rules, and you have to rectify it after you go back. ”

Listening to Xiaobi's flattering words, Fang Ru couldn't deny it, but said: "It's still the master, he understands it, and he has the heart to expand the camp of 'Yuerong Fang', and train a group of useful people for the Zhao Mansion, but now in our Zhao Mansion, there are still too few people available after all, no matter what you do, it is always inconvenient, and it has become a bottleneck." In the future, I have to take care of a lot of things, and I am afraid that I will not have the energy to take care of the small things in the house, so it is not okay to continue to mess up like this. ”

Xiaobi said with a smile: "This is natural, the lord values the lady, and there are many things for the lady to help, and the lady naturally can't be divided because of some small things in the house." ”

Fang Ru smiled lightly, but didn't say anything more, but there was a hint of thoughtfulness in his eyes.

In the previous conflict between Zhao Junchen and the inner court, Fang Ru naturally looked at it, and in Fang Ru's opinion, the people in the inner court were short-sighted people after all, and it was better to cooperate with them directly.

Zhao Junchen must have the same idea, but he just has nowhere to start.

However, passing by Echinen Lane by chance on this day gave Fang Ru a wake-up call.

Although the eunuch alley is filthy, the people living in it are all eunuch candidates, and if you start from here, it may not be impossible.

"Well, when you go back, remember to mention it to the master, if you want to come to the master, he will have his own plans at that time."
