Fang Meiren is very knowledgeable about current affairs, at least she is not stupid, she used the secrets she has mastered to blackmail Yang Chengzu, and she took the initiative to choose to back down and maintain a continuing cooperative relationship. Cao Xiaowan's incident, she also promised that no one else would know, and besides, as long as Yang Chengzu took precautions, even if anyone told Jiajing about it, it would only be regarded as a false accusation and frame-off, and it would not really affect him.

It wasn't until Fang Meiren left for a while that Zhang Zuo came in from outside, he definitely knew about the palace concubine's coming, but he would definitely pretend not to know what to do, but wiped the sweat on his forehead as he walked

"I'm tired to death, there are a lot of twists and turns on the side of the celebrant supervisor, and the people on Zhang's side, it's also a kung fu to clean up, and the slave maid is a hard life. If Gonggong Huang was in the palace, there was still someone to help, and now he is going to Zhejiang to be a town guard, a slave and maid here, but he will really be busy. ”

Yang Chengzu knew what he meant, so he followed him to act, "Father-in-law Zhang, it's really hard." But then again, if Lao Huang comes back now and robs you of the errand of the celebrant eunuch, you are afraid that you will be the first to do it with him. After all, the current palm print is an ornament, in the past few years, Zhang Gonggong has already been trained, I think it won't take too long, the palm print seat should be you sitting. When the time comes, I will call you Zhang Neixiang, and you will have to take care of your subordinates. ”

Zhang Cheng was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped up to give a salute, "Governor, you are saying that you want to break the slave's Yangshou." Who is a slave? Slaves. What kind of person are you, you are a brother of Long Live and the head of the house, since only the head of the house takes care of the slave and the maid, how can there be a reason for the slave and the maid to take care of the master of the house, you don't make the slave and the maid happy. ”

He leaned over and lowered his voice, "Don't worry, the slave and maid are clear in their hearts, what to say and what not to say, they have a number in their hearts." This position of the inner minister, if the slave can really sit on it, it must be to help each other with you. But as far as the slave maid knows, Long Live intends to reinstate Zhang Yong, and Gu Da uses those few people. Those are all seniors in the palace, and the eunuchs of the slaves and maids, like those civil officials, are all senior. They value the first class, the slaves and maids value the qualifications, and those old-timers come out, which round of this internal minister's position is small. ”

As a eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, he struggled to reach the palm seal of the celebrant supervisor, even if he reached the peak of his life. Zhang Zuo's age is about the same age as Jiajing, if he can sit on the prime minister for decades, he will be a leader in the industry, and those predecessors did not have such luxury.

Although he is now holding a pen and is only one step away from the palm print, this step is not so easy to take. His young age and shallow qualifications are the biggest obstacles, in the inner palace, there are some old eunuchs who don't give him face, that Zhang Hua was obviously punished, but his eyes are still full of contempt, this is the performance of the senior eunuchs, and they don't look down on this kind of backward small characters. If Gu Dayong and others recover, whether it is his ability to do things or his seniority, Zhang Zuo is not qualified to fight.

Just like Fang's obsession with being the queen, Zhang Zuo's obsession is to make palm prints, in the inner palace, everyone has their own pursuits, and it is precisely because of these pursuits that there is room for vertical and horizontal. Yang Chengzu patted him on the shoulder

"Father-in-law Zhang, you are smart and confused for a while. It is inevitable that those old husbands will be reinstated, after all, for the old people of the previous dynasty, they can't be used without one of them, but what is the place of the celebrant supervisor? If you want to restrain the outer court, you need the inner court to be available, and this palm print is to be held out and fight against Yang Tinghe. Sitting in this position, the means and abilities are secondary, and the first important thing is to be loyal enough to Banzai and intimate enough to Banzai. If you meet this condition, there is only the old man of Anlu, this old man, he has to be brave enough to fight against Yang Ge Lao, and he doesn't care about being ruined, except for Gonggong Zhang, who is willing to believe it? ”

Zhang Zuo's eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh, "Huh? This makes sense, it's not that the slaves and maids are bragging, but in the palace, in addition to the slaves and maids, who else has the loyalty to the long-lived lord without frowning? This inner minister, our family is seated. But according to the slave maid's speculation, Banzai is most likely to ask the meaning of the Metropolitan Governor, and when the time comes, you must speak well for the slave and maid. ”

He then said: "A few days ago, there was a bastard bastard who privately accepted the daughter of a local official in Guangxi as a concubine, and it was not in accordance with the system, so you should send this daughter back to your family according to the law and allow her to choose another husband." What is not in line with the system is a lie, the actual meaning is to say a small thing to you in front of Long Live in front of you, saying that you have dealings with the toast in Guangxi. It is said that this chapter on the official, long live is a must be read, the slave and the maid are in charge, and take it to pad the table legs. This matter is done by the staker, but what kind of friendship do we have? For the sake of the Grand Governor, this risk is worth the risk. ”

Yang Chengzu hurriedly gave a salute, "Father-in-law Zhang has a heart, this friendship has been recorded by the lower officials." Long live there, the lower officials know what to say, you just have to rest assured, we were friends when we were in Anlu, so naturally we should help each other, if our own people don't help our own people, aren't we being taken advantage of by outsiders? ”

"Haha, Metropolitan Governor, if you can think so, the slave and maid will rest assured. You sit down, the slave and maid have to be busy for a while, and the people around the old lady have been cleaned up this time. But we have to weigh who to send to her, and we must always put some people who need it, otherwise, we will be busy in vain. It's not an easy job, and there's a lot of twists and turns, waiting for the slaves to deal with it. ”

It wasn't until after lunch that Jiajing returned from the front hall, and he had already received the news from the eunuch that his mother was out of danger, and he was in a much better mood. After Yang Chengzu reported the results of the investigation, Jiajing nodded

"Sure enough, I have long said that this old woman is not a good person. After the fire, he only cared about running away by himself, but he didn't think about informing his mother, and he was so tired that his mother suffered a lot. That Zhang Hua must not be kept, and that Zhang Wenfeng is simply a sven scum, don't let him get out of the edict alive. Well, there is, it is Zhang Yanling, Zhang Heling. Didn't the old lady protect her two brothers, I want her to watch them die with her own eyes, big brother, can this be done? ”

"The minister did his best, compared to this, there is a good way to breathe a sigh of relief for the Queen Mother at the moment. This time there was an accident in Ciqing Palace, and the Queen Mother was in danger again, and finally saved the day, and the palace should also celebrate and hold a big drama for the Queen Mother. When the time comes, ask Zhang's to come and take a look, the drama is guaranteed to be very exciting. ”

Jiajing laughed, "Big brother, I know that you have a way, so do as you say, this play must be done beautifully." Today in the front hall, some people came out and said nonsense such as celestial and human induction, and I forcibly pressed the fire and didn't deal with them. Daming is so big, if you even start a fire and say that there are traitors in the court, I am afraid that there will be no minister left in this court. I won't believe this kind of nonsense, and I'm not ready to continue talking nonsense by their temperament, you have to think of a way to make these officials shut up. ”
