The person who came turned out to be the dignified Dongchang factory governor, the close attendant of Emperor Chenghua's cronies, and the eunuch who held the seal of the celebrant - Liang Fang!

Zhang Ru breathed a sigh of relief and quipped: "Father-in-law Liang, are you standing at the head of my bed silently, do you want to scare me to death?" ”

Liang Fang said with a smile: "Your Majesty heard that Zhang Xiaogongzi is not in good health, and the envoy old slave came to visit. For many years in the palace, the old slave is used to being light-hearted, which disturbed Zhang Xiaogongzi, please forgive me. ”

Zhang Ru joked: "Yo, when did Father-in-law Liang become so polite, if you can afford it, just call me Xiao Zhang." Zhang Ru has no father and no mother, God is pitiful, Your Majesty treats me like a son, and I can barely dodge so many open guns and arrows to survive so far, but I can't afford to be a son. ”

Liang Fang sneered and said: "Gongzi Zhang is polite, the old slave is just His Majesty's domestic slave, and he doesn't dare to hold it up in front of his son." Seeing that the son's complexion is not bad, the old slave can also go back to pay the errand. ”

As he spoke, his feet began to move towards the door.

Zhang Ru said loudly: "Father-in-law Liang, sit down again!" ”

Liang Fang not only did not stop, but accelerated his pace.

It's not a joke, this eunuch with the palm print of the celebrant and the invincible Dongchang Factory is a little afraid of Zhang Ru in his heart.

Quickly returning to the palace, Liang Fang went to the Qianqing Palace non-stop, at this time the Qianqing Palace was full of smoke, if it wasn't for the smoke that was really choking, but there was a bit of immortality.

Emperor Chenghua sat cross-legged in the smoke, and his bright yellow underwear was covered with fine black dust, dyeing his clothes gray.

In the center of the main hall, a bronze Dan furnace about one zhang high is constantly spitting black smoke, and standing next to the Dan furnace is the right Tongzheng Lizi Province.

Liang Fang glanced at Li Zixing, Li Zixing nodded slightly, walked lightly to Zhu Jianshen, who closed his eyes and crossed his legs, and whispered: "Your Majesty, it's okay!" ”

Zhu Jianshen opened his eyes and showed displeasure: "Why does it only take such a short time today?" ”

Li Zixing made a peerless appearance, covered his chest and said: "Today's minister spent three years of skill to urge the pill, and the time is shortened. ”

Zhu Jianshen immediately changed his face and said happily: "Sure enough, Li Aiqing is my humerus!" ”

After praising Li Zi Province for a few words, Zhu Jianshen noticed Liang Fang standing at the door, he raised his eyelids and said, "I'm back, how is it?" ”

Despite his reluctance, Liang Fang walked into the hall with his body bowed.

After kneeling down to salute, Liang Fang said: "The old slave saw that kid, looking at that kid's appearance, it should be fine." It's just..."

"Just what?" Zhu Jianshen accentuated his tone.

Liang Fang hurriedly knelt down: "It's just that Zhang Ru sneered at the old slave and had a lot of opinions about the old slave, and the old slave didn't dare to stay longer and came back to resume his life, and he didn't ask him if he was willing to go to the border town, and asked His Majesty to punish him." ”

Zhu Jianshen said lightly: "It's a big deal, it turns out to be such a trivial matter, it doesn't matter." When he's well, I'll ask him what he means. Don't talk too much nonsense, this kid doesn't know what kind of temperament others don't know, you don't know, let him go! Go and call Yuan Bin to me. ”

Liang Fang bowed and turned around to leave, but heard Zhu Jianshen say, "Let Wei Xing go!" You're also old, and you're here to practice with me. ”

Wei Xing at the door left without saying a word, as the eunuch who succeeded Wang Zhi, the eunuch Bingbi, he was not as strong as Liang Fang. But he is good at drilling, in the past, the ceremonial supervisor was Wang Zhi and Liang Fang, but now Wei Xing, the eunuch of Bingbi who has no West Factory as a backer, is only Liang Fang's head.

The way the two get along with each other, but they have nothing to do with each other.

Liang Fang practiced with the emperor with a bitter face, but in his heart he envied Wei Xing's errand.

In this Qianqing Palace full of poisonous fog, it is better to go out and run errands, this is his truest thought. At the same time, in his heart, Liang Fang also had dissatisfaction with Wei Xing, it seemed that Wei Xing had lost his kindness to himself recently, and he was not as attentive as when he first became the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch.

It is said that a eunuch is equal to half a woman, and a woman's sixth sense is very strong, and Liang Fang, who is old, should be suspicious. But it didn't take long for his suspicions to become reality. Of course, that's all for later.

About half an hour later, Yuan Bin appeared in the Qianqing Palace in a hurry.

This time, Zhu Jianshen was not as lazy as when he summoned Liang Fang, he not only walked out of the smoky palace, but also dragged Yuan Bin all the way on foot, not letting anyone follow.

After walking for a while, Zhu Jianshen, who felt that his chest was no longer suffocating after breathing fresh air, tilted his head and asked, "Yuan Aiqing, what do you think of Zhang Ru?" ”

He didn't care when the emperor told him that he wanted to focus on Zhang Ru before, but now that the emperor mentioned it again, it made him feel unusual.

Under normal circumstances, the emperor would never care about the virtue of a hairy boy, even if this person is the prince's constant follower. After all, in addition to refining pills and cultivating immortals, the emperor often squatted in Concubine Wan's bedroom every day.

Now Zhu Jianshen mentioned Zhang Ru several times, which made the old and strong Yuan Bin have a heart, he thought about it before saying: "This son is too high-profile, and now he has not entered the court, but this problem has not been highlighted, once he enters the court, I am afraid that I don't know how many people will criticize him." It's a bit of a means to do things, and as soon as he arrived in the Quartet, he opened all the kings of Tai'an County and a group of gentlemen, and he didn't go to Beizhen Fusi to report. ”

Zhu Jianshen said: "I know what you said that Dongchang's fans are no less than Jinyiwei. Don't be sloppy with me, I want to know what you think of him. ”

Referring to the recent abnormal reaction of the court, Yuan Bin immediately understood what the emperor meant, bowed his head and said, "The minister doesn't know how to evaluate him. said that he was flamboyant, but sometimes he was very low-key, and his methods of doing things were also very shady, and even people like Wang Zhi were defeated under him, which can be seen. said that he was low-key, and after entering Jinyiwei, his means and style of doing things have changed greatly, and he has not done murder and arson for the time being, but it does not mean that he will not dare to do it in the future. ”

Zhu Jianshen raised his eyebrows faintly: "It seems that you are not optimistic about him!" ”

The unkindness in his tone was clearly expressed, and Yuan Bin hurriedly said: "It's not that I don't think I'm optimistic about him, but I just think that he is Puyu now, and he should be properly tempered in order to be of great use." Nothing else matters, what matters is the attitude of His Majesty and the Crown Prince. ”

Zhu Jianshen smiled and said: "Having said so much, this sentence is to the point, I think you should have heard the rumors in the court recently, I am very embarrassed now!" ”

Yuan Bin was silent, in this case, all he could do was remain silent.

Could it be that an old guy who has been the commander of the Jinyi Guard for decades told the emperor that you are a faint monarch who only knows alchemy?

Even if he thinks so in his heart, he will never say so, after decades of ups and downs in the sea, this bit of eyesight is still there.

Zhu Jianshen said to himself: "King Xing is young, but someone persuaded me to abolish the prince and set up King Xing instead. I don't know what they think in their hearts, could it be that the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and they are all a group of people with bad intentions? ”

Yuan Bin is still silent, and in this case, not speaking is the best attitude.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhu Jianshen patted him on the shoulder and showed a wry smile: "There are still a few people around me who are credible, and even I don't know about it." Liang Fang has followed me for many years and has always been loyal, but in the end, he tossed so much that even the inner library was empty. Wei Xing is treacherous and deserves no great responsibility. The silver money of my alchemy pill is gone, is this country still my country? ”

As soon as he heard the emperor say alchemy, Yuan Bin couldn't help but feel a little tired, feeling that you asked people to call me over, just to say that alchemy has no money?

But thinking so in his heart, what he said was: "This world is naturally His Majesty's world." ”

Zhu Jianshen squinted his eyes and looked ahead: "I want to make a good show, and the biggest difficulty in this good show is Zhang Ru." You also said that whether he is arrogant or obscure, what he ultimately has to see is the attitude of me and Youjiao. Since he is a piece of jade, I will leave the task of polishing the jade to you. ”

Yuan Bin said with some embarrassment: "This... I'm afraid I can't do it. You know best what kind of temper that young master has, but the old minister doesn't want to be dismantled by him. ”

Zhu Jianshen said sharply: "If you are willing, this is a discussion, if you are unwilling, this is a holy decree." ”

In desperation, Yuan Bin had no choice but to kneel on his knees, and said angrily: "The old minister takes the order." ”

The two talked about a lot of details, and then Yuan Bin left with a solemn face. It's just that he didn't see that Zhu Jianshen fell into a continuous cough after he left, until there were blood stains on the Shanghao Su embroidery covering his mouth, and the pale Zhu Jianshen took out a black pill from his arms and swallowed it.

At this time, Zhang Ru, who was on the hospital bed, had no idea what was happening in the palace, and he didn't know that a storm was about to come.

The days of lying down every day are boring, but the newly bought maid is very good, taciturn, quite beautiful, and most importantly, this is an illiterate mute girl. Even if Zhang Ru heard something when she was discussing with others, she would definitely not spread it.

Zhu Youzhang, who has grown into a half-grown teenager, will come to see Zhang Ru if he has nothing to do, and the little prince is still very attached to this brother who has played together since childhood.

It's just that he is the prince of the East Palace, and it is not easy to go out of the palace, compared to Mu Bin, who comes to ask for peace every day, he appears much less often.

A few days have passed, and there are no less than ten people that Mu Bin brought to Zhang Ru to see, but only four people Zhang Ru really felt that he could and agreed to let him enter the East Division's room.

From the perspective of martial arts, Zhang Ru can see that these people are not weak, and the most important thing is that these people are not only innocent and not valued in Jinyiwei, but also have good brains.

To be precise, they are not a group of pure reckless people, even if they are relieved of their current positions, it is more than enough to become a local county magistrate.

After more than half a month, the establishment of 300 people in the East Division Room was about full, and Zhang Ru's body was almost recovered, so he decided to go back to the East Division Room Yamen and try the depth of these people first.
