None of the people who do things in the palace are stupid, or rather, they have already been trained to become human spirits, Shan Wenzhong spent forty years to rise step by step from a small eunuch to the deputy head of the inner palace, he is more shrewd than anyone else, and understands the heart of the emperor better than anyone else.

There are so many eunuchs in the imperial study, but the official family summoned him from the harem to send a letter to Zhang Yaozuo, which is strange that there is no deep meaning.

And it was not a letter that was sent, but a fold, and there was no seal or anything, sitting in the carriage, Shan Wenzhong opened the fold, he looked at it slowly, his eyes suddenly widened, and he immediately shouted: "The carriage stops!" ”

The entourage outside the car was stunned, and after a while, a eunuch cautiously asked, "Is the chief manager okay?" ”

Shan Wenzhong was wandering around, he finally understood, why did the official family send him to deliver the letter, this is to let Zhang Yaozuo save himself!

Shan Wenzhong is a person who goes back to work, Zhang Yaozuo can save himself, but he can't participate, he doesn't know anything, the only way is to send a letter to Zhang Yaozuo first, and let him think of a reason to deal with the crisis.

Thinking of this, he immediately beckoned a confidant eunuch to the car window, and said to him in his ear: "You rush to Taishi Zhang's mansion immediately, you tell him ........"

The henchman rode away on horseback, but Shan Wenzhong turned around and took another road, slowly detouring the long way towards Zhang Yaozuo's mansion.

..........

'Bang! A tea cup from the Dingyao kiln was shattered, porcelain pieces were splashed everywhere, and there was silence in the study.

Zhang Yaozuo gritted his teeth in the study with a blue face and said, "Idiot! Lack of success, more than failure! ”

At this moment, Zhang Yaozuo hated Zhu Yuanjun, who had done a big deal for him, and he was stabbed in front of the Son of Heaven before this matter was done, what a bastard this person should be.

Zhang Yaozuo was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth in the study with his hands in his hands, what should he do? Shan Wenzhong was about to arrive, but he couldn't think of a reason to explain that he had to deal with things before Shan Wenzhong arrived, and it was impossible to expect Shan Wenzhong to hide it for him.

He sent someone to tell him in advance, which means that he has no idea of hiding it for himself.

At this time, Zhang Yaozuo's mind suddenly moved, he thought of a way, Ruizhao is Zhu Yuanjun's person, what does it have to do with him?

Zhang Yaozuo never thought about whether doing this would chill other people's hearts?

In the words of later generations, it is called the Dead Dao Friend and the Poor Dao, which is his philosophy of life.

.........

Shan Wenzhong finally arrived at Zhang Yaozuo's mansion, and Zhang Yaozuo's grandson Zhang Chun was waiting at the door.

Shan Wenzhong came out of the carriage, and Zhang Chun greeted him and saluted: "Manager Shan, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Although Shan Wenzhong is extremely powerful in the palace, in the eyes of his master, he is still a slave, Zhang Chun is Zhang Guifei's nephew, he looks down on Shan Wenzhong from the bottom of his bones, but he needs to use this eunuch today, so he has to put on a low profile.

Shan Wenzhong saw the looming contempt in Zhang Chun's eyes, he was annoyed for a while, and his face was still smiling and asked, "Little official, is your grandfather?" ”

Zhang Chun sighed, "Grandfather is sick!" ”

Shan Wenzhong knew that Zhang Yaozuo wanted to use pretending to be sick to clear himself, so he pretended to be surprised and said, "When did your grandfather fall ill?" ”

"My grandfather was so sad that he had been sick for four or five days, and now he is getting a little worse."

"Did you ask the imperial doctor for treatment?"

This is a loophole, since you have been sick for four or five days, why didn't you ask the imperial doctor for treatment? Shan Wenzhong is actually reminding Zhang Chun to plug this loophole.

Zhang Chun hurriedly said: "Grandfather didn't want the official family to know that he was sick, and he was afraid of causing trouble to the official family, so he didn't alarm the imperial doctor, but asked the famous doctor in the city to diagnose and treat him." ”

"I see, then I'm going to visit your grandfather."

"Mr. Shan, please come with me."

Shan Wenzhong followed Zhang Chun to the ward, a strong smell of medicine came to his nose, in the room, Zhang Yaozuo was lying on the bed, his head was wrapped in a towel, his face was sallow, like the face of a dead man, his eyes were closed, and he didn't hear Shan Wenzhong's footsteps coming in at all.

Zhang Chun stepped forward and said in Zhang Yaozuo's ear: "Grandfather, Mr. Shan sees that you are here." ”

After a while, Zhang Yaozuo opened his eyes slightly, he saw that it was Shan Wenzhong, and hurriedly struggled to sit up, Shan Wenzhong hurriedly stepped forward and held him down, "Master, take care of your body!" ”

Zhang Yaozuo said in a hoarse voice: "The white-haired person sends the black-haired person, and the world is the most sad than this." ”

"Master, please mourn."

Zhang Yaozuo sighed, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Shan?" ”

"It's a little thing, one is that Your Majesty asked me to visit the Taishi, and in addition, there is a small matter that needs to be clarified with the Taishi."

"What's the matter?"

Shan Wenzhong said slowly: "Does Taishi Zhang know about the Jiangji Stone Carving Museum? ”

Zhang Yaozuo shook his head, he really didn't know about the Jiangji Stone Carving Museum, but he knew what it was.

"Does that Taishi Zhang plan to do something for King Langya recently?"

Zhang Yaozuo still shook his head, "The concubine has not yet entered the ground, how can I have him?" ”

Shan Wenzhong nodded and put Han Qi's recital on the small table.

"I understand, please recuperate with peace of mind and recover as soon as possible, I will leave first!"

"Thank you, Steward, for visiting!"

Zhang Yaozuo glanced at his grandson with a blank look, Zhang Chun understood, waved his hand and said, "Manager Shan, please!" ”

When Shan Wenzhong left, Zhang Yaozuo suddenly turned over and sat up, snatched the fold on the table, and read it carefully, and sure enough, just as he thought, Zhu Yuanjun's every move fell into the eyes of the other party.

Zhang Yaozuo secretly gritted his teeth and said to himself: "It's you who are stupid, don't blame me for not protecting you!" ”

Zhang Chun kept sending Shan Wenzhong to the carriage, at this time, he took out a paper bag from his leather bag, put it on the seat, then closed the door, and the carriage started and left.

Zhang Yaochen's mansion was out of sight, Shan Wenzhong glanced at the paper bag, he opened the paper bag, and inside was a thick stack of jiaozi, each of which was a hundred large amounts, a total of one hundred.

Shan Wenzhong smiled with satisfaction, yes, Zhang Yaozuo still knows how to be a man.

.........

"Taishi Zhang is sick?" Zhao Zhen stared sharply at Shan Wenzhong.

Shan Wenzhong's expression was very calm, and the official family asked him to send Zhang Yaozuo a fold, didn't he just want to get the news?

He said unhurriedly: "The concubine died, Taishi Zhang was too sad, and he has been ill for five days, he doesn't want to trouble His Majesty, so he didn't alarm His Majesty." ”

"What do you say about the twists and turns?"

"Your Majesty, Taishi Zhang said that the concubine has not yet entered the ground, how can he have his thoughts? He didn't know anything about it. ”

This sentence made the corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth twitch, and there was a fire in his heart, and he also knew that the concubine had not yet entered the ground.

Zhao Zhen restrained the dissatisfaction in his heart and asked rhetorically: "That is Zhu Yuanjun doing this on his own initiative?" ”

"Your Majesty, Zhu Yuanjun was originally a flatterer, he wanted to curry favor with the Taishi, and it was normal to do this."

Zhao Zhen was silent for a moment and said, "I know, you can step back!" ”

"The old slave retires!"

Shan Wenzhong retreated, and Zhao Zhen waved his hand, "You guys should also retreat!" ”

Several other eunuchs also retreated, and only Zhao Zhen was left in the imperial study.

He walked to the window with his hands in his hands, staring at the peach tree outside the window in a daze, he also knew that he should make a prince, he was over fifty years old, and it was impossible to have a son again, so he could only choose one of his adopted sons as his heir.

But whether it is Zhao Zongshi or Zhao Wenyun, he can't make up his mind.

From his original intention, he is willing to set up Zhao Wenyun, perhaps because Zhao Wenyun is Zhang Guifei's adopted son, Zhao Zhen has stayed with him for a long time, and after a long time, there is a relationship, Zhao Zhen already has a father-son relationship with Zhao Wenyun.

On the contrary, Zhao Zhen's feelings for Zhao Zhongzhong are very indifferent, just as his feelings for Empress Cao are indifferent, and he has never regarded him as his son.

Otherwise, he would not have sent Zhao Zhongzhong out of the palace at the beginning, in fact, he cut off the possibility of making Zhao Zhongzhong the crown prince, and he has been cold to Zhao Zhongzhong for more than ten years, where does he still have any feelings for Zhao Zhongzhong, at most Zhao Zhongzhong is also surnamed Zhao.

But the reality tells him that Zhao Zongshi is orthodox, he is the son of Empress Cao, which is crucial, once he occupies the orthodox position, Zhao Zhongzhong's support is self-evident, and more importantly, the military led by the Cao family and the Gao family supports Zhao Zongshi.

This is Zhao Zhen's biggest thing, Han Qi, Fu Bi and others, he can change his appearance, but what should he do with the military, his ancestors and ancestors, who dares to easily offend the military, this is the fundamental reason why he has not established the crown prince for a long time over the years.

He wants to posthumously crown Zhang Guifei as the queen, so that there will be two queens in one day, but he still wants to raise Zhao Wenyun as orthodox, and the dispute between orthodoxy and orthodoxy can at least block the mouths of more than half of the people.

Zhang Guifei's death made Zhao Zhen very sad, and he really wanted to fulfill the last wish of the concubine and make Zhao Wenyun the crown prince.

But what happened today made Zhao Zhen hesitate again, did he really rest assured that he would hand over the country to Zhang Yaozuo, Jia Changchao and others?

For a while, Zhao Zhen's heart was in turmoil, and he couldn't let go of it for a long time.

........

In the afternoon of the same day, Ouchi issued a decree to remove Song Zhen from the position of governor of political affairs, seal the envoy of Wuning Military Festival, sentence Bozhou affairs, and demote Zhu Yuanjun, a scholar of Baowen Pavilion, to a commoner for the crime of falsehood, and deprive him of all official positions.
