"Nature has ......"

After saying this, Chen Lin didn't say anything more, but agreed with Kou Ji to meet at the gate of the East Palace in the evening two days later.

With Chen Lin's reminder, Kou Ji began to pay attention to the changes in the palace.

The next morning, after finishing his body, Kou Ji pulled Liu Heng aside.

In the past few days, under the guidance of Cao Xu, Liu Heng's martial arts have made rapid progress.

In the past, he mostly practiced blindly alone, so there were many mistakes, plus he learned a Tang hand with half a bucket of water, the moves were not coherent, and it was easy to hurt his body by practicing strongly.

In addition to instructing Liu Heng to exercise the foundation, Cao Xu also taught him a full set of Tang hands.

In addition to this, a knife technique was also taught to him.

It is said to be a hundred battle knives used on the battlefield, and it is decisive in killing and has sharp moves.

Of course, Tang hands are sharp, but most of the moves are mainly based on bone-blowing, and they use more flexibility.

The Hundred Battle Knife is different, every move and style of the Hundred Battle Knife is decisive, unusual, fierce and domineering.

One rigid and one soft cooperate to complement each other.

Liu Heng practiced very hard, and he was willing to work hard, so his martial arts were the fastest to enter the country among Kou Ji and his party.

When Kou Ji pulled Liu Heng, Liu Heng was practicing knives.

Hearing Kou Ji's call, he walked to the side with Kou Ji with his knife.

Kou Ji climbed on his shoulder and asked, "What's changed in the city lately?" ”

Liu Heng casually played with a knife flower and muttered: "There has been no change in Bianjing City recently, but the official family has killed people too ruthlessly, and under the advice of the imperial history, they have temporarily stopped."

Besides, there are a lot more Taoists in the city.

Taoists who were rarely seen in the past are now everywhere in the city and can be seen everywhere.

Among them, there are many Taoist officials canonized by the official family. ”

"What about my grandfather?"

Kou Ji asked, turning his head sideways.

Liu Heng was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "If you don't ask, I almost forgot." Your grandfather has been proud of the spring breeze recently, and he has both power and wealth. After those Taoists learned that it was your grandfather who presided over the canonization ceremony of the national teacher, they openly and secretly sent you a lot of money and treasures.

My father said that your grandfather had collected enough money and treasures in the past few days to paste the entire Kou Mansion with gold leaf. ”

Kou Ji shook his head slowly and said in a low voice: "Since my grandfather dares to accept this money, he must have received the consent of the official family. After the work is over, maybe all of them will be sent to the private treasury of the official family, and he will only get some profit at most.

Did you just say that my grandfather had both power and wealth, in terms of power?

The official family promoted my grandfather again?

Why haven't I heard anything? ”

Liu Heng shook his head and said, "When I say power, I mean real power. This time, the official family killed someone, and many people under Ding Wei were implicated. After these people were eliminated, Ding Wei's strength in the court was greatly reduced. Your grandfather took the opportunity to promote many officials.

Not only did your grandfather take back the real power of the prime minister, but most of his cronies were also in important positions.

Although Li Di was not promoted, his status in the inner court faintly surpassed that of Ding Wei.

Wang Zeng was transferred to the Third Division, serving as the envoy of the Third Division, in charge of the money bags of the imperial court.

Your uncle was transferred to the Ministry of Officials, in charge of the promotion and dispatch of officials in the world.

Zhang Zhibai, who stayed in Nanjing, was transferred back to Beijing by your grandfather and served as a squire in the military department.

Yang Yi and Yang Chongxun also had their own promotions.

In addition to this, your grandfather promoted a wave of new people.

Among them, the most famous is Yan Shu, who has been known as a prodigy since childhood.

Yan Shu was a jinshi in the second year of Jingde, and when he was a jinshi, he was only fourteen years old.

Awesome, right?

He was transferred by your grandfather to be the left concubine, the fourth rank official, and one of the subordinate officials of the East Palace.

It is said that he will come to the East Palace in a few days.

Twenty-eight years old, the fourth grade of the official residence......"

Liu Heng looked envious.

Yan Shu is only twenty-eight years old, and he has reached a height that many people may not be able to reach in a lifetime.

And his future achievements will inevitably be more than that.

As long as nothing goes wrong, it is inevitable to enter the cabinet.

How can it not be amazing.

Kou Ji clicked his lips on the side and sighed, "It's really amazing......"

At the age of fourteen, he was a jinshi, and he was also a serious exam.

Kou Ji suddenly felt that he, the prince's attendant, was nothing.

He, the prince's attendant, is not a serious 800 Jinshi background.

There's no way to compare with others.

"When he arrives in the East Palace, the East Palace will inevitably change somewhat...... I don't know if it's good or bad......"

Kou Ji sighed casually.

Kou Ji looked at Liu Heng again and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Liu Heng pondered for a moment and said, "On the palace wall, thousands of big drums have been erected, which are said to be used to celebrate the canonization of the national teacher. Also, the guards outside the East Palace have increased a lot, and they all look fierce and vicious. ”

Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully.

Two days passed quietly.

Two days later, in the evening, Chen Lin sent Zhao to the palace of the noble concubine Yang and returned to the East Palace.

Kou Ji was already waiting for him at the gate of the East Palace.

Chen Lin threw Kou Ji a eunuch's clothes, "Change it, our family can take you out." ”

Kou Ji didn't hesitate, changed into the eunuch clothes given by Chen Lin, and turned into a little eunuch.

Chen Lin nodded a few words to him and led him out of the gate of the East Palace.

Kou Ji has been locked up in the East Palace for a long time, and when he walked out of the East Palace, he felt like he was out of the cage.

He didn't have time to express his feelings.

I saw that on both sides of the gate of the East Palace, two teams of soldiers in armor and blades were standing solemnly.

They were covered in iron armor, and even if they didn't say a word or make any movements, they could hardly hide the aura of slaughter.

"Step Man A...... Forbidden Army? ”

Kou Ji stared at the soldiers for a moment.

Chen Lin, who was walking in front, saw that he didn't follow, so he turned around and shouted, "Hurry ......up and keep up."

Kou Ji nodded hurriedly and followed Chen Lin.

Out of the East Palace, Chen Lin scolded in a low voice: "Didn't our family remind you to follow our family, don't walk around, don't look around?" ”

Kou Ji smiled bitterly: "The palace is a place guarded by the imperial guards, and the forbidden army should be guarding the palace wall. Seeing the forbidden army appear in the palace, I was a little puzzled. ”

Chen Lin glared at him.

"Let's remind you again, tonight is different from the past, you must follow our family closely. You are now a little eunuch, not a prince's attendant. If something really happens, no one will care about the life of your little eunuch. ”

Kou Ji hurriedly arched his hand, "I've been taught." ”

"Hmph~"

Leaving the East Palace, there is still a palace outside.

Chen Lin led Kou Ji through one palace after another.

Everywhere he passed, Kou Ji looked carefully.

He found the palaces quiet, not at all sound.

The door was closed.

The grandmother who sprinkled water, the eunuch who swept the floor, and the palace lady who wiped it, none of them were gone.

Something is clearly not normal.

Kou Ji quickly approached Chen Lin's side, lowered his voice, and said, "These palaces are all full of soldiers, right?" ”
