After Ye Cheng became the eunuch of the Governor of Wu, he was even busier.

However, he will still use all the available time to continue to meditate, communicate with the subconscious, comprehend martial intent, practice various martial arts and light skills, and improve his innate cultivation.

Over time, all the spiritual objects he had acquired were consumed.

His cultivation had once again come to a standstill.

There is no news from the old monk for the time being, and he doesn't know when he will be able to bring him back the spiritual object.

The ascension of martial intent is slow.

This is a process of dripping stones and accumulating over time.

But he's not in a hurry.

With a stable identity and a certain amount of self-preservation, he doesn't need to toss too much, he just needs to cultivate slowly.

Anyway, he has a long lifespan.

Time is the most useless thing for him.

He tossed so hard before, trying to improve his strength, just to change the situation of walking on thin ice and add a little sense of security.

No wonder power is said to be the most confusing thing, and it is.

He was enjoying the satisfaction of being in power right now.

.....

In the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed.

In the twelfth year of Jingde.

Ye Cheng has basically completed the cleanup of the black-clothed guards.

Many of the backbone personnel of the Black Ice Terrace already have the identity of the Black Guard, which has strengthened his control over the Black Guard.

After all, he didn't have any roots in the Black Guard, so he needed to install his own people in the Black Guard.

The Black Ice Platform is an important tool for him to control the Black Guard.

In the past year or so, based on the nine innate eunuchs who had taken refuge in him, he had recruited a large number of middle- and high-level Taiwu Hall guard eunuchs, which greatly enhanced his influence in the Taiwu Palace.

Several other purple-robed eunuchs also began to compete for power and profit, actively expanding their powerful position in the Taiwu Palace, but they maintained a consistent friendship with Ye Cheng.

East Palace.

Bamboo Fish Pavilion.

This is Ye Cheng's new residence, which was specially given to Ye Cheng by the prince.

Although he served as the master of the Secret Martial Mansion and the eunuch in charge of the seal, he usually went back to the East Palace to live.

It's not dawn yet.

in the house.

Ye Cheng sat at a table.

There are a lot of makeup stuff on it.

He was holding a tool and applying a light layer of dye to his face, making his skin look less white, and even his facial features would be a little vicissitudes.

After all, he was not the original teenage eunuch, he was already twenty-seven years old.

He started dressing up himself every day two years ago.

It's troublesome, but it's essential.

In the past two years, he has also learned various disguise makeup techniques, especially the disguise technique of the Thief Gate, which is the most clever.

By dividing the muscles and bones, controlling the muscle epithelia with true qi, without the use of conventional disfigurement, people can change their faces.

In particular, bone reduction can make a big man with eight heads of one meter shrink into a short man of one meter and six meters.

Anyway, in the past two years, he has learned a lot of messy magic.

Although it does not increase combat effectiveness, it is also very practical.

Anyway, there are many skills, and you don't need to press yourself.

After some tossing, Ye Cheng looked at himself in the bronze mirror, although he was still young, he looked more mature, and his eyes revealed a deep and vicissitudes of life.

He was satisfied.

My makeup technique is becoming more and more fascinating.

"Mansion Master."

Outside, the voice of the little Jean was heard.

"I see."

Ye Cheng said.

Then he got up, changed into a purple silk robe, put on a purple crown, and a sword, and walked out.

It didn't take long for him to come to the outside of the Chonghua Palace.

"You're waiting outside."

Ye Cheng said to the other guards and eunuchs.

"Yes."

Many of the guards and eunuchs responded respectfully.

Ye Cheng walked in.

The eunuchs and palace maids along the way did not dare to stop them.

In the hall, the crown prince Su Zhe was eating.

"During this time, those guys are getting more and more noisy, and today's court meeting, I'm afraid they will make trouble again."

After the prince drank the last mouthful of porridge, he put it down.

Ye Cheng didn't speak, but he knew what the prince meant.

So, under the service of the palace maid, the prince changed his clothes, and then left the Chonghua Hall and rode to the Fengtian Palace.

It was the place where the Great Pilgrimage was held.

After the prince entered, Ye Cheng took many guards and eunuchs to wait in the side hall.

The whole pilgrimage lasted for several hours.

Outside, the sun is already old.

Ye Cheng sat on the chair, closed his eyes and recuperated, and did not move.

Whenever he has free time, he goes into a meditative state and communicates with the subconscious.

Over the years, he has done this whenever he has free time, and now he can basically enter a meditative state anytime and anywhere without using the eighteen bells.

It's getting longer and longer.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng opened his eyes, because he vaguely heard the voice of Xu Heng, the eunuch in the Fengtian Hall next door, shouting to retreat.

The Hajj meeting is over.

It didn't take long for the Emperor to enter the side hall with the crown prince one after the other.

The two seemed to be talking about something, and the prince's face was not very good.

After returning to the East Palace, the prince slapped his palm on the table and said with a gloomy face.

"Father Emperor has agreed to reduce the funds of the Taiwu Palace."

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly agree?"

Ye Cheng was surprised.

Once the funds of the Taiwu Palace are reduced, it will have a chain reaction, which will have an unpredictable impact on the development of the Taiwu Hall for a long time.

"In recent years, there have been major droughts in the six southeastern states, and there are more bandits as a disaster, and this is an important area of the imperial court's financial revenue, in order to reduce the pressure on the imperial court's revenue and expenditure, and in order to quell the banditry as soon as possible, the father can only do this."

Prince Su Zhe said.

"Prince, the back of the bandits is far from being as simple as we imagined, the investigation of the black-clothed guards over there is seriously blocked, and the ministers suspect that they are inseparable from those forces."

Ye Cheng said in a deep voice.

Three years ago, when the southeastern states were experiencing severe drought, rising prices, social unrest, and displaced people, bandits also appeared at that time, and they were extremely strong and swept through the southeastern states.

Although the imperial court sent a large army to exterminate it, it was always able to resurrect it.

Even now, the disaster situation in the southeastern states is still serious, the output of grain crops has been seriously reduced, and hungry people are everywhere.

More than a year ago, Ye Cheng had just taken over the black-clothed guard, and he had not fully controlled it until now.

Although he actively dispatched the Black Guards to investigate the bandit rebellion in the southeastern states, there were many obstacles, and even the secret agents of the Black Guards often lost contact.

So far, the surveillance capabilities of the Blackcoats in the southeastern states have been reduced to a minimum.

"Father also knows, but the situation is shaking, he can't go his own way, Ye Cheng, you have to step up to find a breakthrough."

The prince nodded and said.

"The prince can rest assured, the ministers will definitely investigate the truth behind the bandits."

Ye Cheng immediately said.

In fact, he was already planning to go there himself.

With the power of the black-clothed guards over there, it would be difficult to investigate the real situation.

There must be a strong force in charge.

However, he needs to have the sword of the Emperor Qian.

Only then will he be able to let go of his hands and feet.

Otherwise, it will be easy to fall into the tongue, but it will become an excuse for those people to attack the Taiwu Hall in the court, and it will increase the pressure on the emperor and the crown prince.

At this time, a guard eunuch came to the entrance of the temple.

"Prince, Your Majesty asked Gonggong Ye to come over."
