"Alright, it's important to get down to business."

Zhao Feng did not continue to dwell on this issue, patted Wei Chengji's hand, and motioned for him to lead the way.

Although nominally, Zhao Feng is only the head of the Internal Affairs Office, but due to his special status, what happens in this palace is basically under his control.

Something happened in the palace, and the emperor also learned about the situation through Zhao Feng.

While Zhao Feng was in power, he also took on the corresponding responsibilities.

Just like the fire in the Yanqu Hall yesterday, the emperor did not have much interest in the cause and process, and only wanted to see a satisfactory result.

This is also the main reason why Zhao Feng came to Yanqu Hall today.

As for Zhao Feng's exculpation in front of His Majesty, Wei Chengji believed it.

Judging from the reactions of several waves of people who came to check the situation last night, he had already expected it.

As a result, the mood at that time became even worse.

In that situation at that time, the only person who could help him was Zhao Feng, the head of the Internal Affairs Office.

can be the grudge between him and Zhao Feng in the past, he would rather the other party did not help him, and let him be punished by His Majesty.

With Wei Chengji's status, the big deal is to give up the post of the father-in-law of the Yanqu Palace, never get involved in the struggle in the future, and find an idle job to recuperate in his old age.

Wei Chengji has worked hard without merit for so many years, and for the sake of serving the royal family for many years, he will not lose his life because of this.

But not everyone has the courage to retreat from the rapids like Mr. Shang and the calm mind that is willing to let go of the power in his hands.

Wei Chengji worked hard all his life, and finally managed to control some power, and until the last moment, he was naturally unwilling to take the initiative to let go.

Thinking of this, Wei Chengji took Zhao Feng and others to the scene of last night's fire unknowingly.

Today, all that remains is a pitch-black ruin.

But after last night's cleanup, most of the building debris inside has been cleaned up.

Zhao Feng didn't care about the mess, calmly walked into the ruins, and asked Wei Chengji on the side: "I don't know if Father-in-law Wei can find out the cause of this fire?" ”

Wei Chengji glanced at the people behind Zhao Feng and did not speak immediately.

Zhao Feng comprehended and waved his hand.

The eunuchs in flowery clothes who followed him immediately dispersed and guarded the surroundings.

Only Zhao Feng's righteous son Zhao Bugao was still waiting.

"Aji, you know Bugao, don't be taboo about him."

Zhao Feng had already given enough face, and Wei Chengji was no longer pretentious, and repeated the speculation they had reached in the morning.

But among them, Wei Chengji's own thinking has been deleted, and some details have been deleted.

After hearing this, Zhao Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, this fire almost burned Wang Cairen, fortunately she was in danger, otherwise I am afraid that it would be troublesome." ”

Wei Chengji nodded, not agreeing, but also showing a noncommittal attitude.

"General Zhongwu is very fond of his daughter, it is a well-known thing in the court, if she has an accident in the palace, not only you and me, but I am afraid that Your Majesty will not be able to explain it."

Zhao Feng said so, looking at Wei Chengji on the side faintly.

Wei Chengji's breathing was heavy, and this time he replied, "Manager Zhao, that's right." ”

"We are on an errand in the palace, and we seem to be beautiful, but we are all rootless duckweed, and the power in our hands comes from the grace of the saints."

"Aji, you have to understand that we are all nothing more than vassals of the imperial power."

"If the saint is better, we can follow suit."

"Do you understand?"

After Zhao Feng asked this, he looked at Wei Chengji quietly.

Wei Chengji was speechless for a long time, and after a long time, his shoulders collapsed, and he replied in a muffled voice: "I have been taught." ”

"Okay, if you understand."

Zhao Feng nodded with a smile, showing a satisfied look.

"By the way, I don't know who saved Wang Cairen, where is he now, I want to meet him."

Hearing this, Wei Chengji chuckled in his heart.

He deliberately reduced Deng Weixian's sense of existence before, but it was just a passing stroke.

But it didn't work out, but it still attracted Zhao Feng's attention.

"Chief Zhao is a little eunuch who has just entered the palace, and he was assigned to me from the palace a few days ago, and his name is Xiao Dengzi."

"Because Xiao Dengzi conspired with Huang Shan to make this fire, I have asked someone to be detained in the firewood room, waiting for the disposal of Chief Manager Zhao."

"Oh, I see." Zhao Feng was stunned, nodded and continued: "Then let's go and see this little Deng Zi who saved Wang Cairen." ”

"Please ask Aggie to show us the way."

Although Wei Chengji was reluctant, there was no way.

But at this time, someone rushed into the eunuch in the flower clothes who was on guard nearby and wanted to come this way.

"Father-in-law of the printing house, father-in-law of the printing room!"

Several people were attracted by this voice, turned their heads to look, and found that it was Wang Suyue and Xia Bangfeng.

Wang Suyue ignored the obstacles and wanted to break forward, but the eunuchs in flowery clothes stood in front of her and refused to let her go.

When Wei Chengji saw Wang Suyue appear here, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Zhao Feng showed a faint smile on his face, and then ordered the eunuchs in flower-clothed clothes: "Please ask two talented people to come over and talk about it." ”

After receiving the order, the eunuchs in flowery clothes were willing to let them go, and two people followed behind Wang Suyue and Xia Bangfeng.

"Wang Suyue."

"Xia Bangfeng."

"I've seen Mr. Zhao."

In front of Zhao Feng, the two of them saluted respectfully.

"The two talented people are good, I don't know if they are so eager, but there is something important?"

Zhao Feng didn't care about their previous recklessness at all, but asked kindly, without any intention of putting on a show.

But Wang Suyue and Xia Bangfeng will not despise the kind old man in front of them because of this.

Before they entered the palace, they had already heard of Zhao Feng's name.

His authority in the palace even exceeds that of many concubines, and even Empress Wu is afraid of him.

However, Zhao Feng was extremely loyal to Emperor Yongyuan, so he remained untouched for many years regardless of the wind and rain.

On the contrary, this person's influence in the harem is getting worse and worse, and even many ministers in the court have to face this eunuch.

Wang Suyue exhaled a breath of turbid air nervously, and after doing a good job of psychological construction, she said: "The little woman took the liberty to come here, just to ask the father-in-law of Yinfang, why did she put the little Deng Zi who saved my life to death?" ”

"Isn't it merit that he saved me from the fire?"

"Or is he guilty of it?"

Wei Chengji's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Wang Suyue, who looked directly at him and did not avoid it at all, his heart was cold.

But when Wang Suyue said this, she was already out of the way.

Yesterday, she was still suspicious of Deng Weixian's motives, but just now, she happened to hear the cause and effect of being verified.

knew that Deng Wei was coerced by Huang Shan first, so he came to spy on himself.

And no matter what, his life was indeed saved from the fire by the other party.

Knowing that Yinfang's father-in-law was going to get rid of Deng Weixian in the near future, Wang Suyue didn't care about anything else, so she rushed over while Zhao Feng was present, intending to save her life for her benefactor.

Wang Suyue's personality has always been like this, and there are no twists and turns, just trying to have a clear conscience.

Therefore, even if the good sister kept persuading herself, she finally appeared here and asked these words.

Xia Bangfeng, who was accompanying her, looked at her friend stubbornly looking at her father-in-law, and she could only sigh and accompany her silently.

"Oh?"

"Has Grandpa Wei already made a decision on the disposal of Xiao Dengzi?"

Zhao Feng asked with a smile, waiting for Wei Chengji's answer.
