Chapter Forty-Nine: Fooling Around
However, Zhou Yan'er can't stay in the imperial city for a long time, once she is caught by Leng Mochen's people, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Today's affairs are very important, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, you must leave the imperial city first to avoid the limelight."
If you can send away Si Meiren, why can't you send Zhou Yan'er away?
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yan'er shook her head.
"Zhang Jiuqing doesn't know my true identity, he will definitely set up an ambush inside and outside the imperial city, the purpose is to wait for me to throw myself into the net, and when the time comes, he can not only catch me, but also wipe out my fellow brothers."
She also heard that Li Chengzhou had been in retreat for many years and did not know much about the outside world.
"This person is not a good type, he has been struggling in the court for many years, and finally got the opportunity to be appreciated by Leng Mochen, but in just three years of hard work, he can become a five-grade official, which is already incredible, and his methods are extremely brutal."
As the prime minister's minion, he naturally will not leave a good heart.
"Before, no one who openly opposed the prime minister in the court and wanted to replace him was spared."
As if she was afraid that Li Chengzhou would not believe it, she took out a stack of paper from her arms and handed it to Li Chengzhou.
After Li Chengzhou took it curiously, he opened it and found that there were shocking blood books inside.
"The families of these people have sued for many years, but in the end, these bloody books have been reduced to waste paper, and if this person is not removed, it will become a big disaster."
This trip Zhou Yan'er is not just to get rid of the cold ink dust, but also to clean up all the remaining forces under his command.
At present, the imperial court has presented a three-legged situation.
The general's faction died down because they had just dealt with General Zhenyuan, and the prime minister's faction was also not there because the prime minister had been ill for many years, and the people in the harem were also checking and balancing each other, and no matter how long their hands were, they didn't dare to touch the court.
"I naturally thought about what you said, but since he can become the prime minister's minion, it means that it is very dangerous, maybe this city is already full of his eyeliner, in this case, at this time, we can only think long-term."
The two thought about it for a long time, and then conspired.
In the early morning of the next day, a piece of news spread in the imperial city.
"I didn't expect that King Yongle had just been reused by His Majesty, and he brought more beauties, and the Department of Teaching and Workshop has launched countless beauties.
Many people are looking forward to Li Chengzhou's poetry meeting.
The matter soon reached Zhang Jiuqing's ears.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the album presented by his subordinates, and a wicked smile appeared on his face.
"He wouldn't be trying to take advantage of this opportunity to send people out, would he? In this way, it really seems that it is not a high-end method. ”
Leng Mochen mentioned that Simeiren's escape was like a fish in his throat back then, and this time Li Chengzhou still wanted to repeat the old tricks, so he naturally wouldn't give this opportunity.
"Send everyone to keep strict guard tonight, and strictly check all those who pass by."
His subordinates immediately received the order, and Li Chengzhou's subordinates also received the news that the city was heavily fortified.
"The prince really expected things like a god, and guessed that he would be so arranged, but he would never have thought that people were missing under his nose."
At this moment, Zhou Yan'er is wearing a cyan gauze dress, reflecting her beauty in the bronze mirror, her delicate and graceful posture is becoming more and more attractive, and the beauty set off by the delicate and small jewelry is even more gorgeous.
"The rest of the work is up to you tonight, don't make a mistake."
After explaining everything, he changed into a dark robe and specially called Li Xuan, and such good things naturally attracted many literati and artists.
But when everyone came to the Teaching Division, they were surprised.
"How can this poetry meeting still have tickets? Isn't it because you want to make a fortune? ”
The other poor disciples around him looked unhappy, and they were clearly put on the table.
A man in a white robe held a jade fan with a contemptuous smile on his face, and then took a certain amount of silver from his money bag and placed it on the table.
"How can you, poor ghosts, have the talent to come here and meet friends with poetry? Even if you want to exchange talents, it is based on a certain foundation, just you poor ghosts, don't come here to be embarrassed. ”
Seeing that this group of poor disciples were dressed in coarse linen clothes, the man opened the fan in his hand and swayed slightly.
"I'm afraid that not only do you not have two taels of ink in your stomach, but you will also be ridiculed by other beauties, instead of wasting time here, it is better to study more and gain fame, we are not a class after all."
The man said, waving his shirt, and strode into the threshold of the Sect Division.
Many people behind him looked dazed, and most of the children of the poor family thought that Li Chengzhou's trip had some clear meaning.
At this time, the other person was wearing a cyan robe, holding a fan with calligraphy and painting in his hand, and wearing a palace silk around his waist, like a handsome son.
"The Teaching Workshop Division is not the usual fireworks Willow Lane, today the Yongle King can give everyone a chance to watch, it is already a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous life, but it is just a little money at the door so careful, you are difficult to get into the elegant hall after all."
Seeing that several poor disciples were not convinced, he sneered again.
"Do you think the women here are all ordinary playthings in Fireworks Willow Lane?"
On weekdays, the most they can do is go to the usual fireworks to have fun, and the kabuki people there are sparse and ordinary.
"The most inferior beauties here are also from various mansions, those who can get on the stage, which one is not a famous lady? If you don't have this confidence, don't come here to bring shame on yourself. ”
His words were suddenly like a basin of cold water, extinguishing the anger of this impassioned poor student.
One by one, the eggplants that were like frost showed bitterness, and even began to raise funds, and when they had enough money, they walked in generously.
As soon as the hour came, Zhao Songlin walked up with the girls who were lined up.
"Today, on the orders of the prince, as long as you can get the next sentence right, and let the female dependents be speechless, you can take them away, but all the female dependents are divided into A, B, C, D, and so on, if you want to answer the questions, you must first pay enough silver, and each female paper has a total of three questions, and you can take them home if you answer them all correctly."
Li Chengzhou's behavior not only sent away some useless female dependents, but also made a lot of money.
His poetry and poetry have long been regarded as a model by the people in the imperial city, and no one in the imperial city can match him, even the talents of the past are not comparable to him.
At the same time, Li Chengzhou sent a woman to the city gate in a hurry, dressed in night clothes.
Just as he jumped, he was shot by an arrow.
At this moment, Zhang Jiuqing smiled and said nothing, he stepped forward to take a look, and the woman had already lost her breath.
"Lord Zhang, this woman is the person we tracked down last night, but we didn't see the figure of King Yongle, so it is estimated that she escaped."
Zhang Jiuqing nodded slightly, his face full of pride.
