Feng Bao didn't have a good time this year, because of Wanli's attitude towards him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Although he had tried his best to make up for the gap between himself and the little emperor, it was not only difficult to recover from the problems in the relationship between men and women, but it was also not easy for the two men, who regarded the eunuch and the child as men, to return to the old ways after suspicion and distrust. Ren Fengbao tried all kinds of ways to curry favor, but Wanli still had a lot of prejudices against him after all.

As a result, Feng Bao had a sense of distrust and threat towards Yang Zhen, the newly emerging confidant of the Son of Heaven. He is also a veteran who has been in the palace for many years, so he naturally knows the law of the rapid rise and fall of powerful people in the palace, and knows better that if he doesn't do something to deal with it, the situation will be even worse. So, he thought of transferring Yang Zhen out of the palace again. As long as he is kept away from the emperor, it is difficult to even see Wanli, and after a period of time, the Son of Heaven has no other credible person, so he can only trust himself again.

But it was not easy to transfer Yang Zhen out of the palace. Although with Feng Bao's current status, with just one sentence, the Imperial Horse Supervisor can handle things properly. But in this way, everyone knows that this is what he Feng Bao meant, and this is bound to make the Son of Heaven unhappy - okay, if I value a person, you will transfer him out of the palace, what are your intentions?

Just when Feng Bao was struggling to find no valid reason to transfer Yang Zhen away from Wanli's side, such a thing happened, which made him feel that the opportunity had come. Because he had every reason to convince the emperor and make him believe that his arrangement was completely out of the promotion and cultivation of Yang Zhen, even the emperor couldn't stop his subordinates from developing, right?

Now, Zhang Juzheng raised questions before Wanli, and Feng Bao said the reasons he had thought of one by one: "Brother Taiyue, don't think that I am looking for someone to investigate this case, in my eyes, he is the most ideal candidate, for two reasons." ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. Zhang Juzheng also seemed interested, if Feng Baozhen could find a legitimate reason, he wouldn't mind helping this political ally, he naturally knew the relationship between Feng Bao, Yang Zhen and Wanli, how could Master Zhang, who was the first assistant, not keep his own eyeliner in the palace?

Feng Baozheng said: "First, before Yang Zhen entered the palace, he was a brocade guard who served on Qipan Street for a period of time. Presumably, no one else is more familiar with the environment there than him, and he also has a very good relationship with the merchants there, and it is much more convenient for him to come forward than ordinary people. ”

"Well, that's a reason." Zhang Juzheng nodded approvingly. Investigating a case is not only about looking at the scene, but also about communicating and interrogating with relevant local personnel. And in this era, the people have always been afraid of officials like tigers, let alone Jinyiwei, I am afraid that if you ask for a long time, they may not be able to explain things clearly if they are stupid, but Yang Zhen, their acquaintance, can play a certain role.

Seeing that Zhang Juzheng recognized his reasons, Feng Bao was overjoyed, and he was more sure: "Second, maybe Brother Taiyue doesn't know Yang Zhen's ability. He not only has an outstanding martial arts, but also has a careful mind, and once solved the case of theft of the silver treasury in Hangzhou, which was highly praised by the governor Ye Tianzu. Speaking of this, Feng Bao felt bitter in his heart, in the end of that case, his own people were blamed by Jinyiwei, but now he said words of praise from his own mouth, which is really a bit ironic.

"Is there such a thing?" Zhang Juzheng doesn't know about this. There are so many important things to consider in the imperial court, it is naturally impossible for him to care about the affairs and abilities of a Jinyi guard.

After seeing Feng Bao nodding solemnly, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but think: "From this point of view, Feng Bao's move is not only for his own consideration, but also to find out the fire case as soon as possible." Then I should really help him and let Yang Zhen investigate this case! ”

Feng Bao is a person who is accustomed to observing words and feelings, and when he saw him like this, he knew that he had persuaded Zhang Shoufu, and his heart was even more happy. In fact, he has another reason that he hasn't said, it's just that this is only beneficial to him, and he really can't say it.

In fact, Feng Bao did not respect Yang Zhen's ability to investigate the case as much as he said, and felt that the previous theft of the Hangzhou treasury was just his luck, and judging from the final result, Yang Zhen only used the method of planting false accusations, and did not really catch the murderer - of course, he didn't know whether the case was finally solved by Yang Zhen, or whether the stolen goods were both captured.

Based on this inference, Feng Bao felt that there was much to do. If Yang Zhen is really lucky to solve this case, he will inevitably be rewarded by the imperial court, and it will be even more impossible for the emperor to recruit him into the palace as a guard at that time, after all, it will only give people the feeling of being condescending, not to mention that the emperor is not easy to open this mouth, even if he really does this, the ministers are afraid that they will also oppose it. In this way, Feng Bao's goal of driving Yang Zhen away from Wanli was naturally achieved. And in this way, Feng Bao can still have a good reputation and merit for his meritorious deeds.

However, in Feng Bao's mind, such a situation is difficult to achieve, which means that Yang Zhen is more likely to be unable to solve the case at all. In that way, he will have more things to do, and he can completely use Jin Yiwei's side to rectify Yang Zhen on the charge of ineffective handling, not to mention his life, how can he make it difficult for him to have a good person, so as to eliminate the possible threat.

It can be said that this recommendation is completely beneficial to Feng Bao, and he can get the most benefit from it no matter what. This kind of improvisation ability can indeed only be mastered by a person like Feng Bao who is well versed in power.

Zhang Juzheng didn't know that Feng Bao had so many considerations, but the reasons on the surface alone were enough for him to support Feng Bao's decision: "Since this person is so suitable, then this pavilion will recommend Yang Zhen to His Majesty to investigate this case according to your wishes." ”

"Thank you, Elder Ge." Feng Bao hurriedly went down, this was already a rare courtesy between the two.

With the support of Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao became more confident when he reported this arrangement to Wanli. And when Wanli learned that Yang Zhen was going to be transferred to investigate the case, he couldn't help frowning: "This ...... Whose idea was it? Could it be that the Jinyi Guard or other people who couldn't use the yamen actually wanted to transfer the guards around me to investigate the case? ”

"Your Majesty doesn't know, although there are many yamen in Beijing who are good at investigating cases, but this Yang Zhen is the most suitable person." Saying that, Feng Bao told the Son of Heaven again the reason for persuading Zhang Juzheng before.

These two reasons are indeed high-sounding and difficult to refute. It was even more difficult for the young Wanli to raise reasonable objections, and he pondered there for a long time before he said reluctantly: "Since Yang Qing is indeed the most suitable candidate, then I can only focus on the overall situation." He also knew that the fire case was very important, and he must find out the truth as soon as possible in order to give an explanation to the victims and the people of the world, so he did not consider his own gains and losses at this time.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Feng Bao saw that the Son of Heaven was also convinced, and his heart finally settled down completely, knowing that the biggest threat had been easily resolved by himself.

Looking at Feng Bao's surprised appearance, Wanli felt a trace of doubt in his heart, feeling that he seemed to have been coaxed by his partner. But you don't joke, since you have already nodded, there is no possibility of change.

A fire on the night of the Lantern Festival made the entire festive atmosphere in Beijing drop to freezing point in an instant. Even if the three-day Lantern Festival celebration has not yet passed, all the lanterns in the capital have been removed. After the tragedy on Qipan Street, who would dare to continue to look at the lanterns on the street in a short period of time? So after fifteen nights, the Lantern Festival has completely ended.

But this does not mean that Yang Zhen's vacation is over. Because of Wanli's previous grace, he was able to rest outside the palace until eighteen and then return to the palace on an errand. And since the festive atmosphere in Beijing is gone, all he can do is stay at home and accompany Zhang Jingyun. This is a good thing for the latter.

On the morning of the 17th, when Yang Zhen was just about to get up, she saw Zhang Jingyun running in with a big bowl in her hand - I don't know when it started, she no longer shied away from whether Yang Zhen had not changed his clothes and gotten up - "Erlang, I have cooked some new wontons, you can taste them." ”

Yang Zhen looked at the handsome little chef in front of him a little helplessly, because she had nothing to do these days, in addition to talking with Yang Zhen, she was cooking food in the kitchen, and she had to be happy if Yang Zhen eliminated them all. These things taste good, but eating too much is not a good thing.

But Yang Zhen couldn't bear to brush the beauty's heart, so he had to reach out and take the big bowl, and then scoop out a wonton and put it in his mouth to savor it.

"How's it going, is it delicious?" Zhang Jingyun stared at her eyes and asked expectantly.

"Yes, it's much better than the ravioli we ate that night." Yang Zhen said sincerely.

"That's nature." Zhang Jingyun raised her neck like a proud peacock, and then said, "I still cook two more bowls, you must eat them all by then." ”

"Uh......" When Yang Zhen heard this, he was suddenly a little dumbfounded. Although it is said that if a woman wants to capture a man's heart, she must first grab his stomach, but with such a method as Zhang Jingyun, he is really a little unbearable. Maybe if he stays like this for another month or two, the ghost body method he is proud of will not be able to be used because of the blessing of the body.

Just when Yang Zhen felt this sweet distress, the lightly covered courtyard door had been pushed open, and then a man walked in: "Does Yang Zhen live here?" ”

As soon as Yang Zhen heard the voice, his eyebrows raised: "Why did he come to me in person?" "Because the person who came was Liu Shouyou, the commander of Jinyiwei. Generally, it is almost impossible for a person of his status to enter the subordinate door, which naturally arouses Yang Zhen's curiosity.
