"Lady still refuses to see me?" Outside the vertical arch hall, Li Zhang asked Luo Chongxun in front of him helplessly, as the most trusted eunuch around Liu E, Luo Chongxun is also beautiful now, especially after Lei Yungong was beaten to death with a stick, he became the number one eunuch in the palace, and usually even Wang Qinruo had to salute him for three points when he saw him.

"Hehe~, Li Banyu, you better go back, the Queen Mother is in a bad mood during this time, and she may be willing to see you after a while!" I saw Luo Chongxun replied with a smile at this time, which made Li Zhang very helpless, because every time he came to see Liu E, he was stopped by Luo Chongxun, and now it has been four or five times.

"Well, since the eldest lady refuses to see me, then I will leave!" Li Zhang had to salute again and say goodbye, although he can enter and leave the palace at any time, but if he wants to see Liu E, he still needs to report in advance, especially in a place like the Vertical Arch Palace, but I don't know what Liu E thinks during this time, but he just refuses to see him?

Seeing Li Zhang turn around and leave, Luo Chongxun also entered the vertical arch hall, only to see Liu E lying on the desk at this time and reviewing the folds, when he heard Luo Chongxun's footsteps, he asked without raising his head: "Are you leaving?" ”

"Gone!" Luo Chongxun bent down at this time and came to Liu E's side to report.

"How's it going about the last time you checked it?" Liu E asked again.

"Aunt Qi, I still haven't found any suspicions." Luo Chongxun replied with some trepidation at this time, although he is the number one henchman by Liu E's side, but since Liu E grasped the power, his body is also more and more majestic, and even he usually has to serve cautiously, for fear that he will accidentally cause death like Lei Yungong.

"Rubbish!" Liu E finally put down the pen in his hand at this time, and then spit out two words, which made Luo Chongxun's whole body tremble in fright, and he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The slave is not doing well, please punish the mother!" ”

Liu E's phoenix eyes also stared at Luo Chongxun with a little anger at this time, but in the end, she didn't get angry again, but calmed down and said lightly: "Get up, keep an eye on it in the future, and if anything goes wrong, come and see you yourself!" ”

"Yes, thank you!" Luo Chongxun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then got up and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, with Zhao Heng's death, he now realized more and more the meaning of the phrase "Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger".

"Niangniang, then Li Ban read over there......" At this time, Luo Chongxun thought of Li Zhang's matter again, and then asked again with the courage to ask, for Li Zhang, a special person, he sometimes feels very headache, and the most important thing is that he is now more and more uncertain about Liu E's thoughts, so he does not dare to speculate about Li Zhang's affairs.

"Let's hang him first, this kid has too many eyes, if he doesn't suppress it, I'm afraid he will go to heaven!" Liu E mentioned that Li Zhang immediately said angrily, but Luo Chongxun saw that Liu E was not really angry with Li Zhang, which made him secretly envious, he had done so many things for Liu E, but it was not as good as Li Zhang's status in Liu E's heart.

At the same time, Li Zhang left the Vertical Arch Hall and went to Jingfu Hall to find Zhao Zhen, but as soon as Zhao Zhen saw him, he immediately asked: "Why, the eldest lady still refuses to see you?" ”

"yes, did you find out anything?" Li Zhang said dejectedly at this time, Liu E refused to see him, he didn't feel anything at first once or twice, thinking that Liu E was busy with government affairs, but later he felt that something was wrong, so he also discussed with Zhao Zhen, and asked him to inquire to see if there was any misunderstanding?

"No, the day before yesterday, I vaguely mentioned your cousin in front of the eldest lady, but the eldest lady also praised a few words, and there was nothing unusual at all." Zhao Zhen also spread his hands at this time.

Zhao Zhen almost had a gap with Liu E because of the year name before, but later, thanks to Li Zhang's persuasion, he understood that the most important thing now is not to do it against Liu E, but to wait patiently for him to grow up, so he also gave up the prejudice in his heart and restored his former harmony with Liu E.

"That's strange, I'm here this time for the musket battalion to go to the frontier to fight, is it because the eldest lady thinks this matter is inappropriate, so she doesn't want to see me?" Li Zhang muttered to himself again with some doubt at this time.

"Probably not, the day before yesterday, the eldest lady also told me about the musket, saying that if the musket performs well on the battlefield, the army is also ready to promote it on a large scale, after all, the musketeer is much easier to train than the archer, so the eldest lady should not object to the musket battalion to go to the actual battle, right?" Zhao Zhen retorted again.

"By the way, cousin, did you do something to make the eldest lady unhappy, so she deliberately didn't see you and let you reflect on yourself? When I did something wrong before, the eldest lady used to treat me like this. Zhao Zhen asked again at this time.

"What can I do to provoke ......" Li Zhang heard Zhao Zhen's words and immediately wanted to deny it, but as soon as he said this, his whole body suddenly stiffened, and his face became slightly pale, because he suddenly remembered that he did one thing behind Liu E's back, that is, he took Zhao Zhen to see Li Shunrong, but it has been so many days since things have passed, and Liu E has not moved, so he himself is about to forget about it.

"What's wrong with you, cousin, you can't really do anything to anger the eldest lady, right?" Zhao Zhen also saw that Li Zhang's expression was wrong at this time, and he couldn't help but ask again at the moment.

"No, how is it possible, I just thought of something urgent and forgot to do it, so I won't stay with you!" Li Zhang was holding on at this time, and immediately said goodbye and left, Zhao Zhen couldn't keep if he wanted to.

After Li Zhang left Jingfu Palace, his face immediately became gloomy, if nothing else, Liu E was probably already suspicious of taking Zhao Zhen to see Li Shunrong, so he used this method to remind himself not to go too far.

"No, she shouldn't know that I already know that Li Shunrong is my aunt, if I mess up now, I'm reminding her that I already know about it, so for me, the best thing to do is to not know what to do!" Li Zhang suddenly came to his senses again at this time, and whispered to himself again at that moment.

Although Liu E knew about Li Zhang and Zhao Zhen going to see Li Shunrong, Li Zhang did this very carefully and did not leave any beginnings and tails at all, so Liu E was probably just uncomfortable, even if she sent someone to investigate, she couldn't find anything, which Li Zhang was still confident about.

However, although Liu E can't find anything, but he can test Li Zhang through this method, if Li Zhang really messes up, that is, he doesn't recruit himself, after figuring out this, Li Zhang finally relaxed a little, Liu E was unhappy in his heart, at most he gave himself small shoes to wear, and it was a big deal that he was cheeky and ran a few more times, he didn't believe that Liu E would always refuse to see him.

In the next few days, Li Zhang had to go to the Vertical Arch Hall almost every day, although he was rejected every time, but he didn't care at all, speaking of the previous life when he was doing sales, his face had already been practiced, and eating closed-door soup was commonplace, so this test that Liu E gave him was nothing at all.

Early this morning, Li Zhang still entered the palace early as usual, and then went to the Vertical Arch Hall to ask for instructions, originally he thought that he would still be rejected as before, but he didn't expect that this time Luo Chongxun actually walked out with a smile and said: "Li Ban read please, the Queen Mother is finally free to see you!" ”

"Thank you for knowing it!" Li Zhang was also overjoyed when he heard this, Luo Chongxun now succeeded Lei Yungong as the governor of the inner province, and truly became the number one in the inner servant.

Luo Chongxun immediately said a few polite words, and then personally led Li Zhang into the main hall, only to see that Liu E was still reviewing the folds as usual at this time, speaking of which, as long as it was in the vertical arch hall, every time Li Zhang saw her, she was reviewing the folds, and there was always a pile of folds like a hill on the bookcase in front of her.

"See the big lady!" Li Zhang came to Liu E and immediately saluted, without any complaints because Liu E didn't see him before.

"Get up, I heard that your musket battalion wants to go to the frontier to participate in the actual battle, do you have confidence?" Liu E asked without raising her head at this time, although she hadn't seen Li Zhang before, but at this time, she said Li Zhang's intention, which was actually a reminder to Li Zhang that his every move was under his own surveillance.

"Aunt Qi, the musket battalion has completed the drill, and only after actual combat can we see the power of the musket on the battlefield!" Li Zhang also nodded at this time, and didn't seem to hear Liu E's meaning at all.

"If you don't count the time to build muskets before, the real training time of your musket battalion is only more than half a year, and you can train a qualified musketeer in such a short time?" Liu E asked at this time, but she raised the doubts in her heart.

It takes at least a few years for the Great Song Dynasty to train a qualified archer, because the archer is a combination of strength and technology, and it takes a long time to train the strength alone, not to mention that the archery technique is more complicated, and the operation of the flintlock pistol is complicated enough, but compared to the various technical essentials when archery, the musket is actually much simpler.

"Don't worry, the short training time is also one of the advantages of musketeers, and the soldiers under Huyan Shouxin have also been practicing for a long time before, and they are excellent soldiers themselves, so it is easier for them to switch to operating muskets." Li Zhang explained again at this time.

Liu E didn't know much about military affairs, and after listening to Li Zhang's words, she didn't object anymore, and nodded immediately and said: "Okay, since you are so confident, then the palace will issue an order, and all the people in the musket battalion will be transferred to Huanqing Road, which has not been peaceful over there, and it will be easier for you to participate in the training there!" ”

"All? We? Li Zhang was stunned when he heard Liu E's words, and then couldn't help but say with a bitter face, "Auntie, you don't want me to go too, do you?" ”
