Chapter 246: Ouchi is ruthless or righteous
It is said that when practicing in the summer, the board hits the watermelon, and the watermelon is intact, but the inside is rotten into a mush.
This fifty boards, I think I got someone's orders, Zou Yi broke a few ribs, but there were not too many bruises and red swelling on his body, and the broken ribs were nothing more than a recuperation, and he couldn't move violently.
Drinking porridge in small sips, Zou Yi turned his head from time to time, not letting Zhao Jinliang see him crying, he usually thought that he was talking and laughing calmly, and he didn't panic when he encountered something, but he lay in this hut that didn't know whether it was a warehouse or what it was used for a few days, and every time he ate shoddy food, he used to be cold and ruthless when he greeted people with smiling faces.
The only one who came to see him was Zhao Jinliang, Zhao Jinliang was not even ten years old this year, but everyone in the palace knew that Zhang Cheng and Zhang Gonggong liked him very much.
There are also rumors that the eunuch Feng Bao Feng Gonggong also casually praised Zhao Jinliang, and this child has been in the inner study for half a year, this kind of seed means that Zhao Jinliang has a bright future in the palace in the future, at least he must be a young eunuch.
Before Zou Yi did not commit a crime, Zhao Jinliang, who was following Zou Yi on an errand, had already been taken out separately and thought that he was Zhang's father-in-law's person, not Zou father-in-law's person.
This time Zou Yi was unlucky and deposed, but Zhao Jinliang was not affected, the world in the palace was hot and cold, Zou Yi has always been friendly with everyone in the palace, and never offended anyone, but this time the people who have received his favor and the people who are good friends with him, none of them came to visit and condole, and they were all afraid to avoid it.
Zhao Jinliang, who had only known him for less than a year, but everyone loved him, took the initiative to come to see him, and Zou Yi, who was poor and sick, was naturally full of emotion.
After drinking hot porridge, pancakes, and hot meals, his spirit also improved a lot, Zou Yi sat up, watched Zhao Jinliang clean up the house briefly, went out for a while, didn't know that he found a charcoal stove there, put it at the door and started to boil the medicine again.
"Xiaoliang, you study well in the inner study, work hard, I will be able to get up by myself tomorrow, and now I am like this, it is not convenient for you to come."
"That's not possible, Gonggong Zou, your body is still weak now, and you have to take care of it more these days, and when you get better, the little one won't come."
Whether it is cutlery or the charcoal stove, it is very difficult for a small child, Zhao Jinliang wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands while fanning the fire with a fan.
Seeing friendship in adversity, Zhao Jinliang's answer was very calm, thinking that what he did was just a matter of course, Zou Yi was a little excited, his breathing was a little short, but he touched the wound, and he gasped and didn't dare to move, but he sat there a little choked.
After a moment of silence, his voice choked and laughed at himself:
"I don't know where Gonggong Cai is on an errand today, I guess the scenery doesn't recognize our family."
"Father-in-law Zou, Father-in-law Cai didn't see it seven days ago, and I heard the people around me say that he was kicked out."
Zhao Jinliang didn't think about anything, and replied directly, Zou Yi sat there speechless, and he just ridiculed, but he didn't expect that the people around him were affected.
Thinking about it, I was really dizzy when I was making money, thinking that I was close to the Son of Heaven, with the protection of the eunuch Zhang Cheng, the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch Bingbi, and the help of the emperor's close ministers such as Wang Tong outside, so I could naturally act without taboo, but I didn't expect to suffer this big loss.
The weather is very comfortable now, and it is close to May, which is the best time for Jingshi, Zou Yi is very confused there, and he doesn't know where he will be assigned after recovering from his injury.
looked at Zhao Jinliang who was quietly boiling medicine there, and sighed in his heart, Zhao Jinliang did these things as a matter of course, not to repay the favor, nor to show grace, this kind of naturalness is extremely commendable, completely sincere.
In this palace, intrigue and treacherous inexplicability, at a young age, he is just sincere and kind, I am afraid that he will suffer a lot of losses in the future, but unfortunately he will not stay in the palace for long, and he can't take too much care of Zhao Jinliang.
was sighing, but saw that Zhao Jinliang threw away the pu fan in his hand, knelt down in one direction, kowtowed and said:
"Grandpa Zhang is well!"
Who else in the palace can make Zhao Jinliang call like this, except for Zhang Cheng, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, Zou Yi was shocked, and he couldn't care about the sharp pain between his ribs, and struggled to get up and get out of bed.
Broken ribs are very troublesome, often a small movement will hurt terribly, before getting out of bed, the injury is painful and can not be supported, and the hand is supported and kneeling on the ground.
Zhang Cheng appeared by the door, and the already dim room was even darker, Zhang Cheng's face sank like water, and he looked at Zhao Jinliang who was kneeling next to him, with a subtle smile on his face, and nodded and said:
"At a young age, he is a man of affection."
After speaking, he stepped into the room, Zou Yi wanted to speak, but he choked up, but he couldn't say anything, crying and kowtowing to the ground, Zhang Cheng frowned, and said coldly:
"Do you know it's wrong?"
Zou Yi couldn't hold back the pain and kowtowed, but couldn't answer anything, Zhang Cheng shook his head and shouted outside:
"Xiao Liang came in and helped him sit back, and then let the bones be in the wrong position."
Zhao Jinliang hurriedly ran in to help, and when he heard Zhang Cheng say such a thing, although his tone was cold, he was concerned, Zou Yi's heart suddenly relaxed, and his tears could no longer be stopped.
Zhang Cheng stood at the door, it was a backlight for Zou Yi, the whole person was black, and he couldn't see any expression clearly, Zhao Jinliang struggled to move Zhang Po chair to this side, Zhang Cheng didn't sit down, and looked at Zou Yi coldly.
Zou Yi finally calmed down, and said in a hoarse voice:
"The son was really dizzy at the time, thinking that his wings were stiff, and some things could be done without going through his father-in-law, and the position of the supervising eunuch was vacant, and there was no word everywhere at that time, and a few people around him were moving, and the son couldn't help it, but he didn't expect to cause such a catastrophe, the son himself was nothing, and it affected the father-in-law, this is the crime that deserves death......"
Zhang Cheng said in a flat voice:
"Do you think Lin Shulu doesn't make money? Do you think Huang Yang's hands are clean? This is a money deal, it's nothing more than grabbing the handle to rectify the person, this matter, if you are not careful, you are considered unlucky, blame yourself, and blame your bad life. ”
Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, Zou Yi was aggrieved and relaxed in his heart, at least the object of his father-in-law's complaint was not himself, but why was he so unlucky, he thought so in his heart, but he still had to say:
"Father-in-law, ...... on your side"
"Serving the Queen Mother and Long Live Lord for so long, our family has no merit and hard work, but we have to be careful in the future, and we have to talk less, and we won't be able to do anything...... Lao Lin is really black, in less than a month's effort, the royal horse prison up and down, the prison army and the gun, the battalion officers of each battalion were actually washed by him, either driven away or punished, what did he want to do!? ”
Having said this, Zhang Cheng, the great eunuch who has always been calm, still showed some resentment, Zou Yi heard this, struggled to get up, and kowtowed on the bed, the pain of the wound made his face pale, but he still insisted and said:
"Godfather, the Imperial Horse Supervisor is one of the foundations of the inner court, no one is there to follow the soldiers and horses, after all, it is not a safe way, please be gracious to Godfather, let his son go back, even if it is from the bottom of the errand, you have to take root there, and give Godfather a good look at that mess."
Zhang Cheng's voice became a little colder again, and he said:
"Where can you go back, you are doing this way, you have to die in the hands of Lao Lin when you go back, what you think is not unreasonable, but Sun Hai is still working as a commander and eunuch over there, which shows that the Queen Mother still has a plan in her heart."
Halfway through the words, Zhang Cheng reached out and touched Zhao Jinliang's head on the side, and said softly:
"Xiaoliang, go out and watch, don't let outsiders in."
Zhao Jinliang agreed in a low voice, ran out in small steps, Zhang Cheng turned his head to look at it, and said approvingly:
"Young but not impetuous, and know the severity, the future will definitely be a promising, look at you, the more you live, the more you go backwards, the next time I will also make a deal with you, you don't have to do the errand in the palace, the queen mother is angry, and if she doesn't drive out of the palace, it's already our family to fight for you."
Zou Yi's face is like ashes, he has no errands in the palace, can he go to do miscellaneous labor, it is really better to die, Zhang Cheng continued:
"You can't go to Tianjin, Long Live Lord doesn't like you, and naturally he doesn't want you to be by Wang Tong's side."
Hearing these words, Zou Yi even forgot to be respectful, sat down on the bed dejectedly, looked at the corner of the room blankly, extremely dazed, Zhang Cheng shook his head, thinking of Wang Tong's reply, Zou Yi is a capable and capable character, but his ambition in this fame and fortune is too much, but it is a fatal wound, too ambitious, too victorious, and some things are always risky and speculative, which is a great risk and easy to be targeted.
Unexpectedly, Zou Yi has been with him for so many years, but he has not had a Wang Tong who has dealt with him for a year, so it seems that this ordeal is not a bad thing for Zou Yi, but a rare tempering, everyone in the inner court wants to go to the celebrant to be a eunuch, but there are no twenty years of ups and downs, errand experience, who can sit firmly, Zhang Cheng turned his mind around, and said:
"In the future, I will be an errand with our family, but not to follow the writing, the Department of Public Security also needs a special person to straighten out, you have done so many places, just for our family to rectify and operate the Department of Public Security, and use the skills you have learned in the palace, do it well, it is naturally your credit, and it is not that you did not come back on this day, if you don't do it well, then everything will be stopped."
Things have come to this, it is already an accident to have a place to go, what else can Zou Yi say, kneeling there and kowtowing, Zhang Cheng only said "Find our family when you are injured" and went out.
Zhang Cheng went out, Zhao Jinliang carefully brought in the boiled medicine, Zou Yi looked at Zhao Jinliang, suddenly nodded and smiled:
"Look at you in the future, you are good at ......"
