Chapter 22 The Appointed Zongren Mansion

Zongren Mansion, located on the south side of the imperial palace, is one of the five mansions and six departments of the Great Chu Dynasty.

However, this place is also the place where the entire harem, including the royal family, is the most reluctant to come.

Xiao Chen walked all the way over, but was stopped by two guards at the door.

"Where is the little eunuch!"

"The Zongren Mansion also dares to trespass?!"

Xiao Chen directly took out the token he got from Gu Nanfeng at that time, and shook it, "I'm the head of the Zongren Mansion, get out of the way!" ”

"The head of the Zongren Mansion?"

The faces of the two guards changed, and after carefully identifying the token, cold sweat oozed directly from their backs.

Tokens can't be faked.

But he is a gelding, how can he come to the Zongren Mansion?

"Can I go in now?"

Xiao Chen coldly spat out a sentence.

"Yes...... Naturally, it was the villain who was rude before. ”

The two guards hurriedly clasped their fists and saluted.

Looking at their respectful appearance, Xiao Chen felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart, he was always inferior in the harem, but now they wanted to salute him.

Is this what power tastes like?

The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth rose slightly, this taste is very good, since this is the case, it seems that it is also very good to be a Zhao Gao or Wei Zhongxian!

The seeds of power sprout in the heart.

Walking into the Zongren Mansion, Xiao Chen was dressed as a eunuch, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

They all seem to wonder why a eunuch is here.

And at this time.

A figure greeted him in surprise, "Dare to ask, but what is the matter with Xiao?" ”

Xiao Chen was stunned and looked at the person in front of him.

The body is round, the flatbread has a mustache on his face, and his smile is flattering.

He nodded and asked, "Are you?" ”

"Back to Chief Xiao, villain Wei Zhongxian, my lord asked me to follow you."

Wei Zhongxian?!

Xiao Chen's eyes jumped, and he almost took a few steps back, this Nima, the great traitor of the ages, became my subordinate?

"Lord Chief, what ...... you are?"

Wei Zhongxian asked with some puzzlement.

"Ahem, it's okay, it's okay."

Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "Since you are under the orders of the adults, then tell me about the situation of this sect." ”

Wei Zhongxian rolled his small eyes like mung beans, nodded and said, "Yes!" Lord Chief, you come with me first, this is your room, let's talk as we walk. ”

Xiao Chen nodded, "Let's go." ”

The two walked all the way, and Wei Zhongxian also talked about the situation in the Zongren Mansion, "Now the Zongzheng of the Zongren Mansion is Chujiang, the king of Qinhuai, but the prince has lived in the palace for a long time, and he rarely comes to the Zongren Mansion. ”

"So now in the Zongren Mansion, it is generally the Zongcheng Sun Wanzu Sun who has the final say."

Qinhuai King Chujiang!

Xiao Chen's heart sank, this prince, but the uncle of the current Emperor of Great Chu, has an incomparably huge influence in the court.

Wei Zhongxian didn't stop, and continued to introduce, "As for the other officials, the principal only needs to remember one person, Council Member Zhou Yuanqiao. ”

"Zhou Yuanqiao? Is there something special about him? ”

Xiao Chen asked curiously.

Wei Zhongxian looked around and lowered his voice, "Because he is your direct superior, and he is the Zhou family, where the prime minister and Concubine Rong are located!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Chen's pupils couldn't help but shrink.

That old eunuch, this is deliberately playing with me?

Knowing that Concubine Rong and I wanted my life, they deliberately arranged me under the command of the Zhou family!

No...... Wrong.

Xiao Chen squinted his eyes, and came back to his senses, could this old thing be dissatisfied with Concubine Rong and want me to get the Zhou family, right?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was greater, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth, this old thing, calculating Lao Tzu!

Smack!

Suddenly, Wei Zhongxian's footsteps stopped.

Xiao Chen looked up strangely, and saw a middle-aged man wearing an official robe standing in front of him, with a gloomy face on his face, just wondering about his identity.

Wei Zhongxian saluted respectfully and said with a flattering smile: "The villain has seen Lord Zhou. ”

Lord Zhou?

Zhou Yuanqiao!

Xiao Chen's heart tightened, and he met Zhou Yuanqiao when he came in, which is not a good person.

Zhou Yuanqiao lowered his eyes, looked at Xiao Chen, and said coldly: "You are the new director?" Hmph, a gelding, I'm embarrassed to come to Zongren's Mansion. If you know each other, get out of here! ”

"Lord Zhou, this ......"

Wei Zhongxian spoke, wanting to ease up, but before he finished speaking, he was slapped to the ground by Zhou Yuanqiao, "What are you, do you have a share of your voice here?" ”

"Huh...... Master Zhou taught a lesson. ”

Wei Zhongxian fell to the ground, not angry at all, and continued to smile flatteringly.

Xiao Chen frowned, raised his head and said coldly: "Are you saying that you are not worthy of coming to the Zongren Mansion to serve as the Sect Leader?" ”

"You!"

Zhou Yuanqiao's pupils constricted, and his eyes were fixed on Xiao Chen.

This gelding!

What a big guts!

"Sharp teeth! If you want to stay there, just keep staying, but the Zongren Mansion doesn't raise idlers, and a big event happened in the palace recently, so I'll leave it to you! ”

Zhou Yuanqiao sneered and directly took out a case file.

And when he saw the case file, Wei Zhongxian's big cake face instantly changed color, and he hurriedly said: "Lord Principal, don't take it!" This case is not something you can handle...... Syllable! ”

Another slap in the face.

Zhou Yuanqiao twisted his wrist and snorted coldly, "Noise! ”

"If you don't accept this case, I will go directly to the mansion, and you have to think about the consequences."

Listening to the threat in Zhou Yuanqiao's words, Xiao Chen's face was gloomy, if he didn't accept this case, Zhou Yuanqiao would definitely find a way to deal with him, and then he would be completely passive.

On the contrary, if it is next, it may be a good thing.

On the one hand, Xiao Chen has the relationship between Concubine Shu, the Queen, Concubine Jing and the six princesses, as long as it is a matter in the harem, they can find a way to solve it.

In addition, by solving this case, he will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Zongren Mansion completely!

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen grabbed the case file, "Okay, I'll take it!" ”

"Yes, remember, this case will be solved in three days."

Zhou Yuanqiao raised three fingers, "If it can't be broken within three days, you can go and explain it to Your Majesty!" ”

With that, Zhou Yuanqiao turned around and left.

After Xiao Chen heard the last sentence, he immediately opened the case file, and when he saw the content on it clearly, his heart was slightly shocked!

Unexpectedly...... Is this kind of case?!

……

And on the other side.

It is located in the heart of the entire palace.

"A few Aiqing, how about you come to see this disaster relief strategy?"

Chu Yanwu was dressed in a golden dragon robe, sitting on it, and a booklet was placed on top of the dragon case.

Below, are three white-haired old ministers dressed in the court.

After hearing Chu Yanwu's words, the Great Sacrifice Wine Cen Master took the lead in opening the booklet, and with just one glance, his body shook violently!

He stared at the contents of the contents, looking backwards word by word, refusing to miss a single mistake.

After a long time, Master Cen raised his head and asked with a shocked face: "Your Majesty, who did this disaster relief plan?!" ”
