Wang Zhi entered Beijing, and immediately the old department went to take refuge, this once very popular big celebrity, now really back in the capital, greeted by only more than a dozen old departments and an unexpected person - Dingbian Hou Zhang Ru.

"I didn't expect Wang to return to Beijing in a low-key manner and come to pick me up, but it was you, the enemy who drove Wang out of the capital like a lost dog." Lifting the curtain of the carriage, Wang Zhi said something to a person beside him, and then walked down.

"What, you're not welcome?" Zhang Ru said with a smile.

I haven't seen him for a few years, but Wang Zhi is still so handsome, with white skin and beard, and sharp eyes. If it weren't for the lack of a beard, I'm afraid no one would tell his identity and think about a eunuch.

Even if he didn't have a beard, when he was in Nanjing, there were many people who didn't think he was a eunuch.

Wang Zhi smiled bitterly: "No welcome, do I have this qualification now?" It's just a bit of an accident why it's you. ”

Zhang Ru said lightly: "I invited you back, naturally I came to greet you." ”

Wang Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then said abruptly: "I didn't say that it was your person who came to invite me, I thought that the young man named Mu Bin couldn't do anything to you, the Lord of Yama, and specially invited me to come back and fight with you." Unexpectedly, it was you who threatened me to return to Beijing. How? Lonely master? ”

Zhang Ru smiled: "No, if you find an opponent, I won't go all the way to invite you back from Jinling." It's just that there are some things that I need your help with. ”

Wang Zhi raised his voice and said, "Are you so sure I'll help you?" ”

The reason why he left the capital was because he offended Zhang Ru and a group of Wenchen, although Zhang Ru was only a secondary reason, but he was still his enemy.

Zhang Ru said: "Wang Zhi is not such a stingy person in my impression, if you are really stingy, you will not run back without saying a word." In Beijing, there are destined to be some things that you can't put down, and I happen to have these things. I need an ally to make my dream come true. ”

Wang Zhi's gaze instantly became fierce: "Why do you think I will help you?" If I'm not mistaken, I almost killed you in the first place, and you should hate me to the core. ”

"Just because you are Wang Zhi, a Wang Zhi who has incomplete five bodies but is more manly than many people with sound five bodies." Zhang Ru said calmly.

The momentum reached its peak after the exit of the four words of five-body incompleteness, and disappeared instantly after the second Wang Zhi spoke.

Eunuchs generally have their own taboos, and Wang Zhi is no exception, being exposed in front of a milky young man is really the first time in Wang Zhi's official career.

"Forget it, you are the marquis of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Zhi is now a guilty body, and he is not your opponent no matter what." Wang Zhi bowed his head a little decadently and shook it.

Zhang Ru stopped Wang Zhi, who wanted to get into the carriage, with an arrow step: "You really can't talk?" ”

Wang Zhi smiled bitterly and said: "I've been tired of traveling, and I just returned to the capital, so you can talk to me." You have to let me go to the palace to meet the current saint, and then take a bath and talk about it! ”

Hearing him say this, Zhang Ru realized that he was indeed a little anxious.

He smiled, mounted his horse and opened the way in front of him, and then led Wang Zhi towards the prepared house.

After arriving at the mansion, there was an intimate maidservant girl who prepared fragrant soup for Wang Zhi to bathe, which was a treatment, but Zhang Ru himself did not have it in the Hou Mansion.

Of course, it's not that his identity can't enjoy this kind of treatment, but after Su Qiqi left, he didn't take these things very seriously, and sometimes he was busy, and it was very normal not to take a bath for three or five days.

It wasn't until she entered the not-so-small mansion that Wan Ting knew that this gentle scribe turned out to be Wang Zhi, the great eunuch who had called for wind and rain in the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of the cripple somewhere on this person's body, she couldn't help but show off her face and blushed slightly, and secretly blamed herself for not being cheeky, even thinking about such a thing.

After tidying up Wang Zhi's appearance with his heart, Wang Zhi saw Zhang Ru who had been waiting outside the room as soon as he stepped out of the room.

"What's the matter, I'll talk about it after I see His Majesty." Wang Zhi is very proud, even for Zhang Ru, he doesn't have a very good face.

Zhang Ru said with a smile: "You don't have to enter the palace, you don't have a holy decree, you don't have an edict, you don't even have a palace brand, no one will let you enter the palace." Not long after His Majesty's decree was issued, at this time, you are making yourself uncomfortable. ”

Wang Zhi paused, and immediately figured out the joint: "I didn't think you were cowardly all along, but I didn't expect you to be so bold." ”

"Oh? Are you saying that I will invite you back to Beijing without Your Majesty's consent? Zhang Ru raised his eyebrows and said.

Wang Zhi said angrily: "What else can there be besides this." ”

Zhang Ru said: "I don't believe it, no one is looking for you after my people find you." That one seems to want you to come back and help, or he wouldn't have spoken for you in front of His Majesty. ”

"At least he made his purpose very clear, and he didn't hide it like you did." Wang Zhi said coldly.

"Come with me!" There was not too much emotion in his tone, and even Wang Zhi, a person who is good at figuring out people's hearts, didn't hear whether he had an order in his words.

After a few years of separation, after goodbye, the identities of the two have been completely different.

Wang Zhi's heart was full of bitterness, this trip to the capital, I am afraid that it will not be so simple.

After walking for a while, Zhang Ru was the first to break the silence: "I want to know why I asked you to come back?" ”

"Nature." Wang Zhi nodded in agreement.

Zhang Ru tilted his head and glanced at the eunuch beside him, and suddenly said, "What is Qin Ji asking you to come back for?" ”

Wang Zhi immediately picked up the conversation: "I don't believe you can't think of such a simple thing, it's just that you can't fight you, and you need an ally." ”

"It seems that Qin Ji is still a little self-aware, knowing that he can't fight me, so he will get you back. It's a pity that I don't even have the courage to do it, so how can I be my opponent. Zhang Ru couldn't see any joy or anger on his face.

"Let's talk about it!" Wang Zhi couldn't help but urge.

Along the way, he was thinking, Zhang Ru, who was able to find himself faster than Qin Ji, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, did he forget the original grudge between each other?

If there was no such past, no matter what Zhang Ru's idea was, he didn't need to be afraid. It was because of that past that he had to be careful.

Wang Zhi, who has experienced life and death on the battlefield, is not afraid of death, but he doesn't want to die, especially if he doesn't want to die in vain.

Jin Yiwei, who found himself, did not kill himself, and he knew that he was still useful to the marquis in Beijing. Now, it's time for the mystery to be revealed.

"I need your help." After a long time, Zhang Ru's somewhat erratic voice came into his ears.

Wang Zhi rubbed his ears vigorously, as if he had heard it wrong, and his expression was surprised: "What? You want my help? Help what? ”

He can say that he is nothing now, whether it is power or status, he is not as good as one ten-thousandth of the person in front of him, but this is such a person, he actually said that he needs his help.

"This favor may leave you stinking for thousands of years, and it may make you attacked. Even, someone will kill you at all costs, and you will become the number one **** in the history of Daming. Zhang Ru said again.

"What the hell is it?" Wang Zhi was already confused by Zhang Ru.

Seeing his impatient appearance, Zhang Ru smiled dumbly, and said after a while: "It's nothing, just do what you once wanted to do but didn't succeed." Only this time, it's me working with you, not you alone. We may be challenged by civil officials, nobles, ordinary people, and even friends around us. What I have to do is to break through a layer of window paper, and then move towards the goal step by step, what you have to do is to act as a villain. ”

Wang Zhi couldn't help but exclaim: "You want to change the law!" ”

Zhang Ru shook his head and nodded fiercely: "It's a change, it's not a change, maybe the means are not as good as the real change, but the process is not bad at all." What I want to talk to you about is whether you have the courage to do so. ”

Wang Zhi hesitated, he was a eunuch, but he never thought that the tools in his emperor's hands, he did so many things during the Chenghua years, and each of them had his purpose. Although he was defeated in the end at the hands of a huge civilian clique, he never regretted it.

If it was before, he would not hesitate to agree, but now, he hesitated.

It's not because the young man in front of him is a young man who has not dried up, it's not because there was a grudge against each other, and it's not that he doesn't have that ambition anymore.

The only scruple in my heart is just the woman who followed me to the capital desperately because of her words, the woman who played Yaoqin for herself for a few years on the banks of the Qinhuai River.

Eunuchs are not emotionless people, and eunuchs may also have love. It's just that the love of the eunuchs is more induced than triggered, after all, they don't have the object to explode.

"Offending the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty is only the first step, as for what is the second step, I will tell you when you think about it." Seeing that he was deep in thought, Zhang Ru said a word very considerately, and then turned to leave.

Wang Zhi was horrified inexplicably: This is just the first step? He said it so easily, is it really sure to change these established facts? Did he think that he could stand up to such a huge civilian-bureaucratic clique on his own?

Instinctive distrust made Wang Zhi very entangled, he didn't believe that Zhang Ru could do something, but Zhang Ru's ability and strength after an assassination made him hesitate.

He Wang Zhi was able to come back not because of Qin Ji's request for help, but he made up his mind to wake up and go back to Beijing to take a look, it happened to be the young man who had just painted a big cake for himself.

Almost in ignorance, I returned to the house, and ate half a bowl of rice like chewing wax, and I couldn't eat anything.

"Childe is worried about something? Son, rest assured, Wan Ting already knows that as long as you don't leave, the concubine will not give up. Wan Ting thought that Wang Zhi was sad because she knew about the disability of her body, but she didn't expect that Wang Zhi was thinking about something else.
