Feng Bao could vaguely sense that something was wrong from Lu Fang's attitude towards him, because today's Lu Fang's eyes were full of scrutiny and vigilance when he looked at him.

In the end, Feng Bao took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions before he cautiously asked.

"Dry ...... Godfather, you came to the celebrant this time, it was ...... Did something happen? ”

When Lu Fang on the side heard Feng Bao's words, he didn't respond, but just beckoned to Feng Bao and motioned for him to come to his side.

Feng Bao keenly sniffed out the unusual nature of the matter, and didn't care about anything else, and immediately crawled to Lu Fang's side, at this moment, his face was full of flattery.

"Godfather, is there anything you want to tell the child to do?"

Faced with Feng Bao's question, Lu Fang did not talk, but stretched out a thin hand and gently stroked the top of Feng Bao's head.

Feng Bao was very puzzled by Lu Fang's sudden behavior, but his whole person still didn't move.

Just as he couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and was about to ask again, Lu Fang's rather calm voice sounded in his ears.

"Feng Bao, how has your godfather treated you for so many years?"

When Feng Bao heard Lu Fang's words, he responded without thinking.

"Godfather, since the child entered the palace, he has often been taken care of by you, for so many years, if the child did not have your protection, I am afraid that he would have died a long time ago, it can be said that the child's life is given by you godfather!"

Hearing this, Lu Fang nodded imperceptibly, and in an instant, the expression on his face became extremely hideous, only to see him grabbing Feng Bao's hair with one hand, forcing him to raise his head to look at him, and said word by word.

"Since your godfather is so good to you, then why do you want to go to His Majesty's side to leak secrets, you wolf-hearted thing!"

"Could it be that you have taken a fancy to the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal of the godfather, and you can't wait to take over?"

Feng Bao heard Lu Fang's voice without a trace of emotion, his pupils suddenly contracted, and the whole person suddenly fell into an ice cellar.

At this moment, Feng Bao couldn't care about the pain, and hurriedly responded.

"Godfather, you misunderstood, in recent days, the child has never been to His Majesty's side, let alone leaked secrets to His Majesty!"

"Besides, the child is already involved in this matter, and there is no doubt that he is killing himself by doing so!"

"Godfather, the child didn't know about the leak from beginning to end, and the child was wronged!"

Lu Fang was unmoved by Feng Bao's tearful cry, only to see him let go of his hand in anger and reprimanded.

"Hmph, you wolf-hearted thing, you are dying, you still dare to quibble!"

After Lu Fang finished speaking, he unhurriedly took out a piece of paper with handwriting from his sleeve and said slowly.

"Feng Bao, before I came, my godfather had already checked everything out!"

"They have all been recruited, do you admit it yourself, or do you want your godfather to read out the things on it word by word?"

When Feng Bao saw the piece of paper with handwriting in Lu Fang's hand, the whole person was suddenly struck by lightning, and an inexplicable chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the Tianling Gai.

But despite this, Feng Bao gritted his teeth and insisted on his earlier statement.

"Godfather, the child really doesn't know anything, the child is wronged!"

"The child's life was originally given by your godfather, you can take it back when you want!"

"But the child really hasn't done anything to be sorry for his godfather, if there is half a lie, may the sky hit five thunders!"

After Feng Bao finished swearing, he knocked his head down heavily, only to hear the sound of 'bang', Feng Bao's smooth forehead suddenly became bruised, and a trace of blood poured out.

But Feng Bao seemed to feel no pain, so he kept knocking.

By the end, Feng Bao's forehead had already become a blur of flesh and blood, and blood flowed out of the wound on his forehead, down his cheeks, and dripped to the ground.

From beginning to end, Lu Fang always watched coldly, without the slightest emotion, and immediately, I saw him sneer and said slowly.

"Hmph, don't cry if you don't see the coffin, since that's the case, then godfather, I'll give you a good reading of the above content!"

"A few days ago, Feng Bao ......"

Lu Fang just got up, only to hear a rush of footsteps outside the room of the celebrant guard.

After a while, I saw two Dongchang factory guards hurriedly come to Lu Fang's side, knelt on one knee, and reported respectfully.

"Father-in-law Lu, those eunuchs have been recruited!"

"Oh, it's recruited so quickly, and since that's the case, is there ...... among them?"

Lu Fang paused for a moment when he said this, and then looked at Feng Bao on the side, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Seeing this, the two Dongchang factory guards glanced at each other, and then immediately chose to tell everything and everything.

"Gonggong Lu, according to the information explained by those eunuchs, Gonggong Feng has nothing to do with this matter, and those eunuchs ...... at the beginning."

For the rest of the words, Lu Fang didn't have the heart to continue listening, only to see him leaning down, stopping Feng Bao, who still wanted to continue kowtowing, and said softly.

"Feng Bao, don't kowtow, the matter has been clarified, this matter has nothing to do with you!"

And Feng Bao ignored Lu Fang's words, and just repeated them intermittently.

"Dry ...... Godfather, baby...... The child is really wronged! ”

"Godfather believes you, you are indeed wronged!"

After comforting Feng Bao, Lu Fang immediately got up, looked at the two Dongchang factory guards, and asked.

"Who is on duty at the Tai Hospital today?"

The two Dongchang factory guards obviously didn't expect Lu Fang to ask this question, and they replied cautiously after thinking for a moment.

"Back to Grandpa Lu, it is Imperial Doctor Li who is on duty in Tai Hospital today!"

When Lu Fang heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, only to see that he personally helped Feng Bao to the side of the chair to rest, and commanded in a deep voice.

"Now you invite Imperial Doctor Li here, just say that my father-in-law has something to find him!"

In the face of Lu Fang's orders, the two Dongchang factory guards did not dare to slack off, and after saluting Lu Fang respectfully, they left the room of the celebrant supervisor.

After the two Dongchang factory guards left, Lu Fang looked at Feng Bao, who had lost too much blood in a short period of time and his consciousness had become blurred, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Soon, Imperial Doctor Li, who was on duty at the Tai Hospital tonight, hurried to the celebrant with a medicine box on his back and under the guidance of two Dongchang factory guards.

After Imperial Physician Li entered the duty room of the celebrant supervisor, he saw Feng Bao not far away, with blurred flesh and blood on his forehead, and fell into a coma, not only that, but there was also a small pool of dark red blood on the ground.

Seeing this, Imperial Physician Li forcibly suppressed all the horror in his heart, and he knew very well in his heart that he had better treat everything that happened tonight as if he hadn't seen it, otherwise, it would be easy to set himself on fire!

After this, I saw Imperial Doctor Li come to Lu Fang without squinting, leaned down, and saluted respectfully.

"I've seen Grandpa Lu!"

"Hmm."

In the face of Imperial Physician Li's greeting, Lu Fang only responded imperceptibly, and immediately, he looked at Feng Bao on the side and commanded.

"Imperial Doctor Li, our family called you over just to ......"

Before Lu Fang's words were finished, he saw Imperial Doctor Li take the lead and said: "Father-in-law Lu, the official doesn't care about the specific situation, and the lower official will treat Gonggong Feng!" ”

Immediately, I saw Imperial Doctor Li turn around, look at the two Dongchang factory guards, and commanded.

"Please fetch me a basin of hot water!"

When the two Dongchang factory guards heard this, they looked at Lu Fang's location in unison, and after seeing Lu Fang nodding, they breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

Soon, the hot water needed by Imperial Physician Li was sent by the two Dongchang factory guards, and Imperial Physician Li took out a white handkerchief, wet it with hot water, and carefully cleaned Feng Bao's forehead.

In this process, perhaps because of the pain, Feng Bao also frowned from time to time.

After Imperial Physician Li cleaned up Feng Bao's bloody forehead, he saw that he took out a white porcelain bottle from the medicine box he was carrying, and after opening the porcelain bottle, he evenly sprinkled the white powder inside on Feng Bao's forehead.

After sprinkling the medicinal powder, Imperial Physician Li carefully wrapped Feng Bao's medicated forehead with a strip of white cloth.

After doing all this, Imperial Physician Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately, he saw him look at Lu Fang's location and admonish.

"Father-in-law Lu, you just need to recuperate for a few days in the future!"

Hearing this, Lu Fang nodded, and said in response.

"Well, I'm tired of Dr. Li!"

Seeing that the matter was over, Imperial Physician Li did not stop, and immediately picked up the medicine box and bid farewell to Lu Fang.

"Father-in-law Lu, if there is nothing to do, then the next official will leave first!"

"Hmm."

After that, Imperial Physician Li left the celebrant as if he was fleeing.

……

Night, Yan Mansion.

At this moment, in the study, I saw Yan Shifan with a sad face, turned his gaze to Yan Song, who was sitting behind the bookcase, and asked.

"Father, the child doesn't understand, why His Majesty named the child to be in charge of this exam, it stands to reason that wouldn't it be better for this matter to be taken care of by the Ministry of Rites, even the exam questions are from the Ministry of Rites!"

Yan Song, who was sitting behind the bookcase, heard Yan Shifan's words, and immediately put down the book in his hand, and turned to speak.

"Your Majesty asked you to be in charge of this exam, naturally he has his intentions, you might as well think about it carefully, what is the purpose of Your Majesty holding this exam?"

When Yan Shifan heard Yan Song's words, he immediately responded without thinking.

"Your Majesty's purpose is to silence the mouths of those ministers in the court, so that those clans and nobles can enter the official career naturally, and gradually participate in the decision-making of the imperial court!"

Hearing this, Yan Song nodded, and expressed his agreement with Yan Shifan's idea: "That's right, in the final analysis, this exam is just a passing scene!" ”

"No matter what the process is, the fact that the clan and the nobles re-enter the court in the end cannot be changed!"

When Yan Song said this, he turned his gaze to Yan Shifan on the side, and then continued.

"In this case, Your Majesty must have made relevant preparations, perhaps, those clans and nobles have already obtained the test questions for this exam."

And what you need to do next is to try to make this exam "fair and just" and so that those people in the DPRK and China can't find any faults, understand? ”

After listening to Yan Song's explanation, Yan Shifan's whole person suddenly brightened, and he immediately said excitedly.

"Thank you father for your advice, the child understands!"

When Yan Song heard this, he sighed helplessly, and immediately reprimanded.

"You can't figure out such a simple thing, I don't know, what should you do in the future!"

When Yan Song said this, his eyes suddenly became extremely serious, and he looked Yan Shifan up and down before he said in a deep voice.

"Yan Shifan, your father and I are eighty-one, we don't have much to live, there are some things, you should have more snacks!"

"Although I, Yan Song, have been fighting with Xu Jie for most of my life, I know very well in my heart that he Xu Jie is just a tool used by His Majesty to balance me, and neither of us can do without anyone!"

When Yan Song said this, he ignored the look of shock on Yan Shifan's face and continued.

"If something happens to Xu Jie, one day, and he comes down from the position of the second assistant of the cabinet, then I, the first assistant of the cabinet, will also be the first, and vice versa, in short, Your Majesty will never allow a situation of dominance above the court!"

When Yan Song said this, he picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip, and said unhurriedly.

"I'm afraid that the last time I was seriously ill, Your Majesty was ready to get rid of Xu Jie, if your father and I didn't survive, then the crimes he Xu Jie had committed over the years would also be exposed, and he would end up in prison!"

"You know, the Xu family in Songjiang, where Xu Jie himself is located, has annexed more than 200,000 acres of land, I believe Your Majesty must know this news, Yan Shifan, do you know what this means?"

When Yan Shifan on the side heard this, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly, and at this moment, his face was full of horror.

After a long time, I saw Yan Shifan come back to his senses and respond cautiously.

"Father means that His Majesty has the handle of Xu Jie's hand in his hand, and he can deal with him whenever he wants?"

"Hmm."

Seeing that Yan Shifan understood what he meant, Yan Song nodded, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes, and continued to add.

"Of course, Your Majesty's hands also hold our handle, for so many years, what we have done, Your Majesty will not know?"

When Yan Song said this, he didn't wait for Yan Shifan to respond, and added to himself.

"No, Your Majesty knows, Your Majesty knows everything!"

"The reason why Your Majesty still keeps us is because we are still useful to Your Majesty, we can subdue hundreds of officials for him, and we can come forward to do inconvenient things for him, understand, Yan Shifan!"

The last few words, Yan Song almost said in a roaring tone.

But soon, his emotions calmed down again, as calm as a bottomless spring.

"Yan Shifan, I told you so much to let you understand what to do in the future!"

"Our Yan family has no way out, the only thing we can do is to let Your Majesty see our value."

In the future, put away your careful thoughts for me, and sincerely serve Your Majesty, only in this way can my Yan family be able to seek a glimmer of life, understand? ”

Yan Shifan on the side saw that the expression on Yan Song's face was extremely serious at this moment, and immediately looked abrupt and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, father, the child knows!"
