Chapter 10: Zheng Sanbao
In the evening, Xiang Chi came to Changxiu Palace.
"Your Majesty, please have tea," Iru said respectfully, holding the teacup.
"Okay" Xiang Chi took it, took a sip lightly, and said, "Are you feeling better?" ”
"Much better," Iru smiled and sat aside.
"I heard that you went to the queen today," Xiang Chi asked softly after putting down the teacup.
"Yes, today the queen mother summoned the harem daughters, and said that the queen mother made a decree to carry out the first selection of concubines after His Majesty ascended the throne, and the queen mother called me to wait over, mainly to discuss the placement of each palace after the people came" Yilu replied, although there are many palaces in the imperial city, but the harem is mainly the east and west six palaces, and all those below the concubines must fall under the main seat of the east and west six palaces, so it is necessary to make some preparations in advance.
After Xiang Chi nodded, he said with concern: "This kind of thing is arranged by the people below, don't be too careful."
"The concubine understands"
Looking at the well-behaved and obedient Yilu, Xiang Chi gently pulled up the silky little hand, and said gently: "In the past three years, you have been wronged, and I will not mention the things of the year, no matter what it is, I will never treat you badly in the future."
"Your Majesty," Yilu hurriedly stood up and thanked him.
Xiang Chi smiled and pulled Yilu up, "It's not early, go to bed"
Iru was stunned for a moment, then a blush appeared on her face, but she finally nodded slightly, and the two walked into the bedroom hand in hand.
After a while, looking at Han Bao'er who came out of the back room, Wei Zhong, who was guarding outside, said in a low voice: "Your Majesty has slept peacefully with Niangniang."
Han Bao'er immediately nodded happily.
"That's good," Wei Zhong also smiled.
"Manager Wei, Niangniang has specially arranged a room for you, you can also go and take a rest," Han Bao'er said.
"No, no, let's be slaves, just do it casually by the house, thank you Niangniang" Wei Zhong thanked.
"Then what's the matter, I heard that Chief Manager Wei will soon serve as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, if you don't rest well, how to serve Your Majesty" Han Bao'er hurriedly shook her head and said, Yi Lu had already given her a special order, she must not treat Wei Zhong as an ordinary eunuch chief, but as an important minister of the future Great Chu, and even more important than those important ministers in the court.
When Wei Zhong heard this, he immediately said modestly: "What kind of commander, it is just a servant of His Majesty, but it has an extra title."
"That's different, with such a title, Manager Wei can be said to be the first person in ancient and modern times"
"Don't dare, don't dare"
"Manager Wei, let's go! There is a vigil here," Han Bao'er asked again.
Wei Zhong glanced at the inner room where the lights had been extinguished, and after hesitating slightly, he nodded and said, "Then thank you Niangniang"
"The manager is gracious"
。。。。。。
On the second day, in the Qianqing Palace, Xiang Chi looked at Wei Zhong and said solemnly: "The institution where Jinyiwei is located is the Zhenfu Division, which is rebuilt on the basis of the original Beiya, it is estimated that it will be in a few days, you, the first commander of Jinyiwei, need to go over and have a look immediately."
"The slave obeys," Wei Zhong hurriedly said.
"What does Jinyiwei do, I don't need to say more, you should know very well, but whether you can establish him well depends on your own ability, I will send an order to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and you can transfer all the personnel on the military list of the Governor's Mansion, and I won't put too much pressure on you, one year, after a year, I need to see the results" Xiang Chi reminded.
"Minions understand"
"I know that in the three years of your career in the East Palace, in addition to military personnel, you have also secretly searched for information about some masters in my Dachu people, just for today, right?" Xiang Chi laughed.
"Slaves are guilty," Wei Zhong said immediately.
"It's okay, this shows that you have taken my words to heart and put them into action, I can really promise you today, all these people can become supernumerary personnel of Jinyiwei, in a word, the amount is applicable, you don't have to think too much about its character, if it is not suitable, you can directly erase it" Xiang Chi waved his hand.
"Minion, Your Majesty," Wei Zhong said gratefully.
Xiang Chi looked at the round face that was eager to try, and said with a smile: "You're leaving, the chief manager in this palace who replaces you, have you chosen it?"
"Your Majesty, the minions have been chosen, Sanbao, you come in" Wei Zhong shouted outside.
"Yes"
Soon, a eunuch with his head bowed hurriedly walked in from outside, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Slave Zheng Sanbao, please see Your Majesty"
"Raise your head," Xiang Chi said.
Kneeling Zheng Sanbao immediately raised his head slightly, Xiang Chi glanced at it, and said to Wei Zhong with a smile: "He is more handsome and fairer than you."
Wei Zhong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Sanbao entered the palace at the age of eight, and has been with the slave for two years, with a clean foundation, a smart person, and a clear understanding of the affairs of the imperial city."
"Really?" After Xiang Chi was curious, he said to Zheng Sanbao: "Sanbao, I ask you, if one day the master makes a mistake and lets you bear it, will you bear it?" ”
"Dan," Zheng Sanbao replied without hesitation.
"What if it's wrong again and again?" Xiang Chi was a little more serious.
Zheng Sanbao hesitated a little and said, "Then the slave will continue to bear it."
The corners of Xiang Chi's mouth lifted and said, "You didn't think about admonishing the master."
"No, a slave is a slave, a master is a master, a master is always smarter than a slave, and the task of a slave is to serve the master well" Zheng Sanbao said loudly.
Xiang Chi's face moved, and then he said coldly: "Then what if the master lets you die directly?" Would you like to do the same? ”
"Yes" Zheng Sanbao nodded immediately, without the slightest hesitation.
Looking at the firm gaze, above the pure golden clouds overhead, a cloud goose was spreading its wings, Xiang Chi said: "You need to know that ants are still stealing, how do you let me believe you?"
Zheng Sanbao's eyes froze, and after hesitating for a while, he said loudly: "Because the slave didn't take his life as his own from the beginning, the life and glory of the slave were all given by the master, and!" ”
"Say"
"And the slave will always firmly believe that the Great Chu will be passed down from generation to generation and will be passed down for eternity" After Zheng Sanbao finished speaking, he kowtowed heavily.
Hearing this, Xiang Chi was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, and said to Wei Zhong: "Good choice, good said"
Although Zheng Sanbao's luck beast is only a fourth-grade cloud goose, far inferior to Wei Zhong's white crane soaring, it is completely enough to be a eunuch in charge, and this loyalty, self-consciousness, is even more rare.
"Your Majesty," Wei Zhong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sanbao, Cong starts today, you are the second eunuch chief of my Wude Dynasty, I hope you remember today's words, keep your duty, your duty is sometimes more precious than any intelligence," Xiang Chi announced.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Zheng Sanbao replied firmly.
"Okay, then let's go down, Wei Zhong, you prepare well, how much silver taels you need, you go to the Internal Affairs Office to withdraw it yourself" Xiang Chi said.
"Slaves obey"
"Go" Xiang Chi just waved his hand, a guard suddenly ran in, clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, King Ning asks to see"
"King Ning" heard this name, Xiang Chi's brows furrowed slightly.
