Chapter 467: Hidden Feelings

"Back to the deputy manager, the little ones have been counted, and the ladies have arrived. ≈≤”

After the on-site counting, an attendant came to report to the tall and thin eunuch, which made the tall and thin eunuch's somewhat nervous face ease slightly.

"Scholars, ladies and ladies are all here." Then, the tall and thin eunuch smiled and bowed to Li Hongyu and said.

"Really?"

Li Hongyu had been secretly observing the look of the tall and thin eunuch, and knew from the face of the tall and thin eunuch that he was not telling the truth, so his face sank, and he stared at the tall and thin eunuch coldly and said, "This official just counted silently, why is there one person missing?" This is a crime of deception! ”

"Is that so?" Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he knew that Li Hongyu would never be untargeted, so he asked the thin and tall eunuch with a gloomy face.

"Back to the scholars, the chief manager, the ladies are all here, and nothing is missing."

The thin and tall eunuch's face turned pale in an instant, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, he never expected Li Hongyu to be able to see that there was one person missing, but he had no way to retreat now, so he could only bow down and reply.

"Go, count the number of people in each province of the miscellaneous family." Wei Zhongxian has been in the palace for many years, and naturally saw at a glance that the thin and tall eunuch was lying, so he sneered and instructed the chamberlain beside him, he didn't expect the thin and tall eunuch to be so bold, and he dared to deceive after Li Hongyu raised questions, did he think that Li Hongyu was easy to deceive?

Listening to Wei Zhongxian's instructions, the chamberlain beside him immediately went to count the number of ladies by province, which made the ladies at the scene suddenly have a slight commotion, obviously they didn't expect Li Hongyu to see that there was no one at a glance.

In fact, these ladies basically stayed together after entering the palace, and they knew whether anyone had not come, but the palace was a place where few words and deeds were cautious, and before they set off for the capital, they were instructed by their parents, family members and local officials to be more silent in the palace, so as not to cause unwarranted disasters.

Therefore, the ladies are silent about whether the number is complete, and no one wants to offend the thin and tall eunuchs, otherwise they will suffer in the palace in the future, after all, there are only a few people who can become the concubines and concubines of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the vast majority of ladies can only become palace maids or female officials, and they can't afford to offend the thin and tall eunuchs at all.

As for those ladies with a strong sense of justice, the fate will definitely be extremely miserable at that time, they can only be slaughtered before they get the fame, and even if they have a fame, they must be in awe of those eunuchs.

Looking at the attendants under Wei Zhongxian methodically counting the number of ladies on the scene, the thin and tall eunuch's face turned pale, and he wiped the coldness on his forehead from time to time.

He is Wang An's person, so he is naturally not afraid of Wei Zhongxian, but the key is that this time he fell into the hands of Li Hongyu, and he also caused trouble in such a major event after the election of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, which is simply a crime of bullying the king, so he is naturally anxious and does not know how this matter should end.

Wei Zhongxian looked at the tall and thin eunuch coldly, if he wanted to deal with Wang An, he had to cut off the henchmen around Wang An, among which the tall and thin eunuch was an important godson in Wang An's hands, otherwise he would not have been sent by Wang An to participate in the post-election affairs.

Since the fire in the Luan Palace, the Emperor of the Apocalypse has completely lost his heart to Wang An, and originally he wanted to accept Wang An for his own use, but what Wang An did had passed his bottom line, and he could only be abandoned as an outcast.

Therefore, Wei Zhongxian has always thought of an opportunity to attack Wang An, but there is always no good time, if the thin and tall eunuch hides the number of ladies this time, then he will definitely be punished by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and it will also be a big blow to Wang An.

Li Hongyu sat there quietly looking at the scene in front of him, the reason why he wanted to make a fuss about this matter was not only for the future Empress Zhang, trying her best to maintain the direction of history, but also to help the Emperor of the Apocalypse and add strength to the road to get rid of Wang An.

At this moment, Li Hongyu didn't know if Empress Zhang was among the ladies who were selected to be sent to the palace, after all, he had changed history, and God knows what the chain reaction would be.

However, if Empress Zhang failed to appear at the scene among the ladies who entered the palace, then she was undoubtedly suppressed by the tall and thin eunuchs, and it was almost crazy suppression that directly deprived Empress Zhang of the opportunity to become the concubine of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The reason for this situation is nothing more than two reasons, one is that Empress Zhang came here to offend the tall and thin eunuch, and the other is that some people are worried that Empress Zhang will be picked by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, so they bribe the tall and thin eunuch with a lot of money, so as not to take away the opportunity of a certain lady.

For the first reason, Li Hongyu thinks that it is unlikely, those ladies must be ordered not to provoke the eunuchs and female officials in the palace when they come, so how dare Empress Zhang offend the thin and tall eunuchs.

In this way, there is only a second possibility, some people are worried that Empress Zhang will stand out from the ladies, so they bribe the thin and tall eunuchs to deal with Empress Zhang, so that Empress Zhang suffered an unjustified disaster.

Li Hongyu couldn't help but glance at the eight ladies who were selected, if this is really the case, then the person who bought the thin and tall eunuch must be this family.

Or, the families of several of these eight ladies joined forces to kick out the most powerful Empress Zhang, so that those ladies still have a chance to fight.

"Back to the manager, the small one counted the number of people, and the Henan lady Zhang Yan is not here!" Soon, the chamberlain in charge of the inventory came to Wei Zhongxian and bowed down to report.

Li Hongyu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, although he didn't know what Empress Zhang's name was, but he knew that she was from Henan, and now he thought about it, that Zhang Yan was Queen Zhang.

"Zhang Yan?" Wei Zhongxian's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked coldly to the tall, thin eunuch with a cramped expression.

"Say, what's going on, why is there one person missing?" Hearing this, the tall and thin eunuch hurriedly turned to one of the chamberlains standing on the side, and shouted at a sharp voice.

"Back to the deputy manager, the little one forgot, Zhang Yan was sent to the Huanyi Bureau and has not been recalled yet." The chamberlain hurriedly bowed down and said.

When the thin and tall eunuch heard this, he immediately raised his hand, slapped the chamberlain in a loud face, and then pointed at him and scolded him sharply, "You have eaten the courage of the ambitious leopard, you dare to forget about it, and you still want to live." ”

"Damn it, damn it...... damn it," the chamberlain knelt down with a thud, kowtowing to the tall and thin eunuch.

"The small one has seen the wrong number of people and is willing to be punished." At this time, another chamberlain knelt down and kowtowed to the tall and thin eunuch and said, he was the person in charge of counting the number of ladies in Henan just now, so he naturally wanted to be implicated.

"University scholar, Chief Manager Wei, look at this......" The thin and tall eunuch ignored the two kowtowing attendants, but looked at Li Hongyu and Wei Zhongxian with a smile on his face.

"Dare to make a mistake in the matter after the emperor's election, do you think that this official and your lords are so foolish, if this is not spread out without a lack of people, it will be a dereliction of duty for this official and your lords."

Li Hongyu sneered when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pointed at the two kowtowing attendants, and shouted in a deep voice, "Come on, take down the two of them and send them to the Beizhen Fusi for interrogation. ”

Hearing this, the Jinyi guard at the scene immediately stepped forward to set up the two kowtowing guards and dragged them out, Li Hongyu's "Beizhen Fusi" naturally refers to the Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu Division, which specializes in handling the imperial case, and this matter is naturally the imperial case because it involves the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

"Father-in-law save me, father-in-law save me!" The two chamberlains didn't expect Li Hongyu to send him to Beizhen Fusi, it was a hell that cannibalized people without blinking, so they turned pale with fright, and pleaded loudly at the thin and tall eunuch.

The face of the thin and tall eunuch has begun to turn green, and the sweat on his forehead is like rain, once the two chamberlains enter the edict, they will definitely not be able to bear it, and they will definitely confess that he is deliberately suppressing and squeezing out Zhang Yan, which is a big crime of bullying the king, and now that this matter is stabbed, even Wang An may not be able to save him.

"Manager Wei, you sent someone to invite Lady Zhang, and the official and the adults will test the eight ladies selected first." After the two attendants were dragged away, Li Hongyu said to Wei Zhongxian in a deep voice.

"The miscellaneous family will send someone."

Wei Zhongxian was in a comfortable mood at this time, as long as he entered the edict, he was not afraid that the two chamberlains would not recruit, which meant that the thin and tall eunuch was in a catastrophe this time, so he bowed to Li Hongyu quietly and sent someone to the Huanyi Bureau to invite Zhang Yan.

Li Hongyu and several officials of the Ministry of Rites tested the knowledge of the eight ladies, when the appearance and temperament of the eight people are comparable, knowledge will become an important criterion after the election of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, so the eight ladies naturally dare not slack off and go all out to deal with it.

Where is the thin and tall eunuch still in the mood at the scene at this time, he found an opportunity to go to Wang An, and now only Wang An can save him.

Wang An was stunned when he learned of this, and then kicked the tall and thin eunuch to the ground, pointing at the tall eunuch and scolding.

He never expected that a tall and thin eunuch would dare to do such a thing, and it would be a shame to provoke anyone to provoke Li Hongyu, it was simply a suicide to kill himself, thinking that Li Hongyu was so foolish? As a result, he saw through the tricks of the tall and thin eunuch at a glance.

Under Wang An's questioning, the thin and tall eunuch cried and explained the truth of the matter, it turned out that someone gave him a large sum of money to brush Zhang Yan down in the selection, and he didn't know who asked him to do it, and he wouldn't ask about this kind of taboo thing, as long as the other party gave him enough money, he would do it according to the other party's requirements.

Therefore, the thin and tall eunuch found a reason to let Zhang Yan go to the Huanyi Bureau to get something, and deliberately left her there, without his order Zhang Yan was not allowed to leave the Huanyi Bureau, and was ready to leave her in the Huanyi Bureau until the end of the selection, and then assigned her to the Huanyi Bureau as a palace maid, and she would never see the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and she had no chance to turn over at all.

But who would have thought that Li Hongyu would know that there was one less lady on the scene just by virtue of his eyesight, which made Zhang Yan's matter exposed.

"You are so bold, this is the selection of the mother of a country, you greedy dog dare to harbor a lady, this is a big crime of bullying the king, even if the emperor wants to spare you, I am afraid that the ministers in the court will not tolerate your behavior."

After learning the ins and outs of the matter, Wang An said to the tall and thin eunuch with a gloomy face, "How long do you think those two little cubs can carry it in the edict prison?" ”

"Dad, you have to save your son, for the sake of your son and you for so many years, you have to save your son." The tall and thin eunuch fell to his knees with a thud and pleaded bitterly.

"To tell you the truth, your disaster this time is too big, and Dad can't do anything about it." Wang An couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, glanced at the thin and tall eunuch and said in a deep voice, "If you go to the edict prison, you will definitely be tortured, it is better to make a decision yourself, and my father will arrange the funeral for you and take care of your family." ”

Saying that, Wang An walked away expressionlessly, not because he didn't want to save the thin and tall eunuch, but because this matter was too bad, and the thin and tall eunuch had no way to live, otherwise how could he die and not save him?

Seeing that Wang An left a cold sentence and left, the thin and tall eunuch suddenly collapsed on the ground with a bloodless face, trembling all over, never thinking that he thought that a trivial matter would kill him.
