Outside the gate, Uncle Shen sent the general Gao Yue away, he watched Gao Yue's carriage go away, and Cao Jianguo, a staff member beside him, asked cautiously: "Will punishing Bao Hongwu affect his mood?" ”

Uncle Shen Guo glanced at him and said coldly: "Last time, he messed things up, should there be a punishment?" ”

Cao Jianguo didn't dare to speak again, Uncle Shen snorted heavily, and was about to go home, only to hear a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and someone was shouting: "Uncle Guo stays!" ”

Uncle Shen Guo stopped and looked into the distance, under the hazy night, he saw more than a dozen palace guards rushing quickly, and when the guards approached, Uncle Shen suddenly recognized that the eunuch headed by him was Ma Yuanzhen, the chief administrator of the inner chamberlain.

Ma Yuanzhen is much more important than Gao Yue, Uncle Shen hurriedly walked down the steps and bowed his hand, "Ah Weng is here to find Shen Qin?" ”

Ma Yuanzhen is extremely powerful, the courtiers dare not call him his father-in-law, they all call him Ah Weng, Uncle Shen Guo is no exception, generally Ma Yuanzhen rarely goes out of the palace, today he came in person, so that Uncle Shen Guo was very surprised, I don't know what happened?

Ma Yuanzhen turned over and dismounted, bowed his hand and said with a smile: "Disturb Uncle Guo, I hope to forgive my sins!" ”

"Where! Where! Ah Weng is a distinguished guest who can't be invited, how dare you say the word bother! ”

Uncle Shen Guo was quite close to him, and he stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "But there is a holy decree?" ”

Ma Yuanzhen shook his head, "Go in and say!" ”

Uncle Shen Guo woke up, this must be a private matter told by the emperor, he hurriedly invited Ma Yuanzhen to the study, he also wanted Cao Jianguo to come in together, but after hesitating, he still gave Cao Jianguo a look and asked him to wait outside.

The two of them went into the study and sat down, the maid served the tea, and when the maid retreated, Ma Yuanzhen picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "Two things, one good and one bad, which one does Uncle Guo want to hear first?" ”

Uncle Shen's mind turned quickly, Gao Yue came from the palace, and Ma Yuanzhen followed with his hind feet, the two must be related, he had vaguely guessed that the so-called bad things should be related to today's Lanling County King, so there is no need to rush to listen.

He smiled, "I have always heard good things first, and then bad news, Ah Weng might as well say good things first." ”

Ma Yuanzhen took out the white jade Ruyi and handed it to Uncle Shen Guo, "This is what the emperor asked me to give you, neither a reward nor a gift, you can understand the emperor's meaning yourself." ”

Uncle Shen Guo took the white jade Ruyi, only to see that the Ruyi was crystal clear and delicate, without a trace of flaw, it was carved from a piece of superb jade, he was a powerful minister of the court, this kind of speculation was his forte, he pondered for a moment, and then understood what the emperor meant, the emperor has taken a fancy to Shen Ruyi, met for the first time yesterday, and today he was impatient to accept her into the harem.

Uncle Shen couldn't help but laugh proudly, if Shen Ruyi is favored again, then the status of the Shen family will be as stable as a rock, this is really a great thing, Shen Ruyi is favored, but at least another twenty years of glory and wealth of the Shen family.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly got up and bowed deeply to Ma Yuanzhen, "Please teach me Ah Weng, when is the best time for her to enter the palace?" ”

Ma Yuanzhen also had to admire Uncle Shen's old scheming, and saw that Queen Shen was now pregnant and would be snubbed by the emperor, so he arranged a follow-up strategy, and then sent the daughter of the Shen family into the palace, and tied the emperor firmly to the Shen family's big ship, the means were very clever, such a powerful man Ma Yuanzhen certainly did not want to offend, he and Uncle Shen had no conflict of interest, and now Uncle Shen respected him again, he naturally helped Uncle Shen.

Ma Yuanzhen narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, "According to our family's ideas, of course, the sooner the better, what does Uncle Shen think?" ”

Uncle Shen originally wanted to follow the path of his sister Empress Shen, but in the news from his sister last night, he didn't mention Ruyi at all, which shows that his sister is not enthusiastic about Ruyi, or that she is a little jealous in her heart.

He can understand his sister's feelings, but for the sake of the rise and fall of the entire family, he must make a decision, and he can't ruin this opportunity because of his sister's mood, so he resolutely made up his mind.

"Good! I'll listen to Ah Weng's words, and I'll send her to the palace tonight!" ”

Uncle Shen's decisiveness made Ma Yuanzhen have some admiration, if it weren't for his scruples about the prince, he would have the heart to make friends, Ma Yuanzhen He knew that Uncle Shen was bent on replacing the prince with the king of Chu, and the prince's strength was not weak.

Ma Yuanzhen is a smart person, he knows that the key is the emperor's attitude, and the emperor's attitude is very ambiguous, if the king of Chu is too strong, he will suppress it, if the prince is too weak, he will support it, for example, this time the East Palace tax and silver into Beijing, the emperor also knows, he deliberately ignored, ignoring it, obviously seems to be helping Uncle Shen, but in fact he is secretly helping the prince, for example, he revealed the news of the concentration of embroidered clothes and guards in Yanshi County to the prince intentionally or unintentionally, and did not pursue the matter of the prince running to Yanshi in person, This shows that the emperor has been using the technique of balance to make the crown prince and the king of Chu fight evenly together.

Ma Yuanzhen naturally followed the emperor's line, how the emperor goes, he will go, although today he is ordered to talk with Uncle Shen, but he doesn't want to take advantage of this opportunity, he doesn't want to get too close to Uncle Shen, and he doesn't even give Uncle Shen a chance to make friends with him, he saw that Uncle Shen's eyes flickered, so he immediately diverted the topic.

"After talking about good things, then you should talk about bad things, Uncle Shen Guo is mentally prepared?"

Ma Yuanzhen guessed correctly, Uncle Shen Guo is thinking about further entrapping Ma Yuanzhen and making him a firm supporter of the King of Chu, Ma Yuanzhen is a eunuch and has no interest in women, he already has everything in gold and silver land, and he can't use vulgar things to envelop such a high-ranking and powerful person.

Uncle Shen Guo didn't say it thoroughly, his mind turned back, nodded and asked with a smile: "But it has something to do with the time of the Lanling Palace?" ”

Ma Yuanzhen really admired Uncle Shen a little, and his mind was so deep, "The emperor didn't say it explicitly, he just said, the king of Chu is young, let you stop making enemies for the king of Chu, I think Uncle Guo should understand what the emperor means." ”

Uncle Shen nodded, he understood what the emperor meant, and asked him to give up the investigation of Zhang Chongjun's tiger talisman case, and not to force Zhang Chongjun to the side of the prince, so as to make enemies for the king of Chu, which can be understood as both a warning to him and a hint that he should not act rashly.

"Thank you Ah Weng for spreading the word, Shen Qin is taught, and I will send Ruyi into the palace later, and ask Ah Weng to take care of her."

"Uncle Guo, don't worry, the palace has its own laws, and he won't wronged the Ruyi girl."

Ma Yuanzhen stood up with a smile, "The Holy Lord is still waiting for my news, so I'll go first." ”

Uncle Shen Guo didn't keep it, he personally sent Ma Yuanzhen out of the mansion.

When Uncle Shen Guo came back, Cao Jianguo was already waiting, Uncle Shen Guo sat back in his seat, gave him a few simple words, and then asked him: "Is there any progress in the matter of the tiger talisman now?" ”

Cao Jianguo went to assist Bao Hongwu in finding the whereabouts of the other half of the tiger talisman, he had already talked to Bao Hongwu last night, knowing the current situation, he hurriedly reported: "General Bao has found another personal soldier named Luo Gang, he may have relatives near the capital, and General Bao is now making every effort to track down." ”

"Hmm!" Uncle Shen Guo nodded, "You tell him for me, if he can succeed this time, I will find a way to make him a general, if he still fails, then he won't come to see me!" ”

"The humble duty must be relayed."

Cao Jianguo hesitated, and then said, "Didn't the emperor mean to let Uncle Guo stop?" Why do you have to ....."

"Why do you want to keep tracking, don't you?"

Uncle Shen sneered, "The emperor just told me to be careful, and didn't let me stop the investigation, if I don't even understand this, what else will I do!" ”

After a pause, he said slowly: "While tracking down Zhang Chongjun's evidence, tomorrow I will visit the King of Lanling County and apologize to Qi Wu for his ignorance." ”

That night, Shen Ruyi entered the palace, and Emperor Huangfu Xuande was fortunate to visit her in the Qilin Hall of the Inner Palace Study without the queen's knowledge.

．．．．．．．．． At the same time that Ma Yuanzhen visited Uncle Shen Guo, in the Hongwen Hall of the East Palace, the crown prince Fu Heng was quietly listening to Tianxing tell him about the scene that happened during the day.

Huang Fuheng held a meeting in the political hall today, and when the meeting was held, he heard about what happened in the Lanling County Government, he was a little suspicious that it was related to Wu Jin, and when he returned to the East Palace, he immediately called Tianxing for questioning.

In fact, when there was a fight in front of the palace of Lanling County, Tianxing was also at the scene, and he was hiding in the crowd to watch the battle from afar, and he knew the situation very well at that time.

He told the prince in detail about today's Meihuawei test arrow, what happened in Baifu Restaurant, and the battle in front of the Lanling Palace, and finally he expressed his opinion.

"Beizhi thinks that this Wujin's martial arts are very powerful, especially when he shoots crossbows, no one in the world can compare, but Beizhi feels that he is still too young, impulsive, and not rational enough, today he should not provoke the emperor to handsome them, and as a result, it caused an uproar, this incident shook the capital, I'm afraid even he himself can't think of it."

Huang Fuheng didn't pay any attention to Wu Jin shooting thirty crossbow arrows in a cup of tea, he was not interested in this, he was thinking about other things, why did Elder Han Ge of Plum Blossom Guard let Wu Jin be the captain of Plum Blossom Guard, and gave him the No. 9 military card, he couldn't figure it out, how could Wu Jin have a relationship with this mysterious figure of Plum Blossom Guard?

I'm afraid it's not that simple, everyone, even Li Yan thought it was arranged by him, but Huangfu Heng knew better than anyone else that he didn't arrange Wujin to enter the Plum Blossom Guard at all, just like Tianxing, he was temporarily seconded to the past, and he shouldn't have a real military card.

There's something wrong with that! But Huang Fuheng didn't reveal the doubts in his heart, he smiled and asked Li Yingwu, "What do you think, sir?" I mean, Wu Jin got into a fight in a restaurant. ”

Li Yingwu stroked his beard and smiled slightly: "I think it's a bit inconsistent." ”

"Where are the inconsistencies?" Huang Fuheng asked with interest.

"Tianxing said just now that he was very abrasive when trying arrows, and it took a quarter of an hour to load the arrows, and as a result, Luo Zhiyu was rubbed in, which shows that he is very patient and scheming, I think how could such a patient and scheming person provoke on impulse?"

Huang Fuheng nodded, "Mr. is right, I also think it's a little strange, but what is his intention in doing this?" I kind of can't figure it out. ”

"Your Highness, his intentions, I guess may have something to do with Shen Qiwu, didn't Tianxing say it? Originally, Shen Qiwu was inevitably beaten, but Wujin let him go, he was very targeted at the surname, and he targeted Huangfu Handsome, I think it was not because of any family resentment, but because he saw Huangfu Handsome's irritable stupidity. ”

Now, even Tianxing didn't feel right, as if Wu Jin had some intentions, "But.... What are his intentions? ”

Li Yingwu smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, he is showing weakness to Uncle Shen Guo, making Uncle Shen Guo think that he is an irritable and impulsive person, so as to divert his attention from him." ”

Tianxing suddenly realized, he scratched his head and sighed: "I can't imagine that Wu Jin is so scheming, and I have been used by him?" ”

Huang Fuheng also smiled, he really didn't see the wrong person, maybe he wanted to blind himself at the same time, but it wasn't so easy. Huang Fuheng suddenly remembered another thing, he had just received a letter from Zhao Xun of the Qinghe Water Army, which said that there were rumors at sea that Baisha would send out to intercept the tax silver boat, but was rescued by the Phoenix Club, and the Phoenix would hit the Baisha Club hard, in which he could analyze two pieces of information, one was that Uncle Shen Guo and Baisha would collude, and the other was that the Phoenix would help, if it was really the Phoenix would help, then who were the three young people who followed Wujin? Is it really that simple as Wei Ming said?

This clue is very important!
