Chapter 37: Wealth and Glory
The house just now looked no different from the house of the Kyoshi Middle House, and the decoration was simple and simple.
But at this time, if a bird flies overhead, you will see this simple commoner's house surrounded by magnificent palaces.
The beautiful, solemn and solemn hall, the towering vermilion palace wall, the bluestone paved ground, and the eunuchs and palace maids walking in it all show where this is.
Zhang Cheng, who seems to be a loyal member in the delicacy hall, is wearing a scarlet python robe at this time, struggling, and bowing behind him followed by more than a dozen eunuchs of all sizes.
Zhang Cheng is the companion of the current emperor when he was still the crown prince in the East Palace, and now he is the second person in the inner court.
As he was walking, a little eunuch on the side trotted over and whispered a few words in his ear, Zhang Cheng was stunned, nodded and said with a smile:
"What a good boy!"
This is naturally the imperial city of the Ming Dynasty - the Forbidden City, the small courtyard is the birth mother of the Wanli Emperor, the residence of the Empress Dowager Li of the Ming Dynasty, she was born in a poor family, so the residence at this time was also built in the style of the past.
The little eunuch came to report that it was Wang Tong's errand that was the case, and he learned that Wang Tong did not choose to collect money idlely, but took the initiative to ask to go to patrol and investigate, willing to be busy, willing to do things, such a person at least deserves to be diligent.
Wang Tong's choice in the afternoon, the news reached Feng Bao an hour earlier than it reached Zhang Cheng's hands, after learning the news, the eunuch Feng Bao smiled casually and commented:
"If a martial artist wants to have a future, it is impossible to avoid things like a literati, but this kid knows how to do things, and it is not in vain for our family to boast!"
There are quite luxurious mansions in the capital, which are the residences of ministers and nobles, and the largest one is the first assistant of the cabinet, Zhang Juzheng, Lord Zhang.
The news about Wang Tong was reported by Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao at about the same time, and there were six or seven people in his study, all of whom were important ministers of the court and had a prominent reputation.
Jin Yiwei commanded Liu Shouyou to not even have a place to sit in this study, as if he was a long-term servant serving the master's family, and he whispered the news to Zhang Juzheng.
Bai said that he had been to the delicious restaurant, and the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty was still wearing the black Confucian robe with dark gold patterns, and stroked his thick beard with his hand, Zhang Juzheng said in a deep voice:
"Keep it, tell you about it."
The matter was simple, and it was explained clearly in a few words, and everyone present looked at each other, and the eldest one spoke a little impatiently:
"The emperor is young, but the queen mother has arranged a martial artist to accompany him, most of these vulgar people are annihilated, don't take it bad, Zhang Ge Lao, you have to go and persuade the queen mother and the emperor, don't repeat the disaster of Qian Ning and Jiang Bin in the Zhengde Dynasty!!"
Jin Yiwei commanded Liu Shouyou, although he is a son of a famous minister's family, but he can be regarded as a martial artist in this position, and the words of this old minister are quite harsh to him, but he doesn't dare to say anything, it is the official Shangshu Wang Guoguang, the elder of the Three Dynasties.
After Wang Guoguang said this, several ministers echoed him, but Zhang Juzheng did not answer, and said indifferently:
"There is no trivial matter in the heavenly family, and the people around the saint are not small people, the child is not very old, but his heart and surname are not inferior to adults...... Such a role will either be a capable minister or a great annihilation in the future. ”
"Why do you say that the old man is called Zhang Fu, he was a long-term follower in Zhang's Mansion back then, so he naturally had to follow the surname of the master."
Early the next morning, Wang Tong had to go to Tian Baihu to sprinkle and sweep again, there were too many things he didn't understand to ask, and Tian Bo didn't have anything to hide at this time, and he knew everything.
"You ask who that bearded man was yesterday, I really don't know? Anyway, Xiao Wang, you are young, that is the old man Zhang Ge, the first assistant of the dynasty! ”
Tian Bo was quite surprised by Wang Tong's inquiry, the folk have the title of "Zhang Dabeard", Wang Tong had already guessed about it, but when he heard the confirmation, he was still shocked.
The prime minister and the prime minister both came to a small restaurant to watch people and ask questions, and the identity of the lame little fat man was revealed......
After all, when he came into contact with these, the impression that this little fat man gave Wang Tong was more of a child with the surname Ren and was spoiled, even if he knew the supreme identity, he was no more shocked than Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng when they came to the store.
Feng Bao is okay, Zhang Juzheng is really famous, the dignitary is abnormal, Wang Tong's life in this era for more than ten years, in the past four years, the number of times he heard Zhang Juzheng's name is definitely much more than hearing Emperor Wanli or Feng Bao.
Emperor Taishi, the current first assistant, and the master of ceremonies and the minister Feng Bao as allies, Zhang Juzheng's power exceeds that of any prime minister since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.
Nowadays, Zhang Juzheng's words are the national policy of the imperial court, the queen mother and the emperor in the palace fully support it, and the six cabinets of the DPRK and China have no words.
To put it mildly, today's Zhang Juzheng is the true Son of Heaven in the Ming Dynasty, and he is truly in charge of the world.
Wang Tong was awe-inspiring in his heart, his life was indeed going to be turned upside down, but when he reached a high place, he would fall to pieces if he made a wrong step, so he must be cautious.
He thought in his mind, but the broom in his hand didn't stop, Tian Bo looked at Wang Tong, and his favor became heavier and heavier, he didn't know Tian Bo's identity to come forward to help, but now he knows that this identity still comes to help, which shows that this child who is about to soar is not a person with a cold surname, this kind of benevolent and righteous surname will definitely have a good reward.
Tian Bo sprinkled some water, straightened up and thumped his waist, and couldn't help but remind:
"Xiao Wang, the little old man sells the old man and says something, you don't like to listen to it, the old man still remembers how prominent Meng Chong was back then, and he said that he would fall, and the above are all moody and incomprehensible surnames, but be careful!"
This reminder coincided with Wang Tong's thoughts, Wang Tong hurriedly stopped the work in his hand and thanked him, and said seriously, but he was a little embarrassed, Wang Tongsuo asked with a smile:
"Uncle Tian, didn't you always work as an errand for the elder of the pavilion, why did you come here to be a master again?"
"I've been in Zhang's Mansion for decades, I'm old, my young master... It was Zhang Ge's old mercy who found a background for the old man's child and released it to start a family...... Alas, I have been serving people all my life, and I really can't stand being idle, and I always have to find something to be busy every morning. ”
Listening to the old man's words, Wang Tong smiled, he couldn't be idle after retirement, which was normal, but Tian Bo was aroused by Wang Tong to talk, and couldn't help but snort and said:
"If it weren't for the old man's hard work for most of his life, how could Tian Ronghao, who is not angry, come to this good place to be an errand, and he still plays official style every day, even if he is a brocade guard, he will be sent to a bitter place on the edge of the city wall!"
