How did you, a prisoner on death row, become an important weapon of the country? Yecheng Gao Weiming

After Li Xin finished speaking, he strode away.

Wei Zhongxian stood there, but he was as happy as a child.

Did you hear that?

What did my brother call me?

Fourth brother!

He called me Fourth Brother.

Has he forgiven me?

Wei Zhongxian danced excitedly and even stood up straighter under his bow.

After Li Xin left, he immediately waved to a young eunuch not far away.

"Hurry up and order the imperial kitchen to prepare a fine banquet and deliver it to our house before dark, do you hear me?"

The little eunuch was stunned and even looked at Wei Zhongxian strangely.

Lord Factory.

How dare you prepare a banquet during the national mourning?

Even delivered to your home?

This is too much.

"What are you doing standing still? Go quickly!"

"Yes, yes! Mr. Factory Master, I will arrange this..."

Wei Zhongxian raised his hand to strike, but the other party ran away in panic.

"These thieves have started to disobey us even before we resigned?"

Wei Zhongxian shook his head and sighed, then walked towards the Supervisor of Ceremonies with his hands behind his back.

He also had to make arrangements to explain some things.

After all, after the burial of Emperor Tianqi tomorrow, he will bid farewell to Zhu Youjian.

He just slapped his ass and walked away, but the eunuch couldn't just throw him away.

Because as long as the eunuchs don't fall, he can sit back and relax in his hometown.

At the same time, I also want to give a few words of explanation to my successor Wang Tiqian.

The other party is coordinating the situation in the court, and is mentally prepared for whatever happens.

Who knows.

When Wei Zhongxian strolled to the Supervisor of Ceremonies, he saw a bustling scene.

Far away, I heard another noise inside.

"Ahem...what are you doing! The late emperor is mourning, why are you making such a noise?"

Wei Zhongxian furrowed his eyebrows and shouted angrily, then walked into the Chief Ceremony Supervisor.

Wow!

The eunuchs in charge of the room dispersed with a roar, and looked back at themselves strangely.

Wei Zhongxian's brows furrowed even more.

But he saw that it was all the supervisors and eunuchs from the twenty-four eunuchs gathered together, and they didn't know what to say around them.

"Are you all okay?"

"Everyone, go back. I wonder if you have anything important to do tomorrow?"

He shouted angrily again, just wanting to disperse all these people.

Because the late emperor went to funeral, except for the queen and concubines in the harem, there was no need to support the deceased.

Almost all the eunuchs in the imperial city were dispatched to see Zhu Youxiao off.

If you don't prepare well, why are you staying here?

Unexpectedly, everyone did not move, but looked at each other and held their hands together.

"Mr. Factory Gong, we... we are meeting Eunuch Cao who just arrived from Nanzhili, and Eunuch Wang of Prince Xin's Mansion. We really don't dare to leave. Please forgive me."

"Eunuch Cao, Eunuch Wang?"

Wei Zhongxian was stunned.

I believe he knows who the prince of Xinwang Palace is.

Wang Chengen.

This person is also one of the old eunuchs who entered the palace in the early years, but he is much younger than him.

At that time, when Wei Zhongxian was serving the prince Zhu Youxiao in the East Palace, Wang Chengen was serving the prince Zhu Youjian.

Although the two are not enemies, they have nothing in common.

Now that Zhu Youjian has ascended the throne, his personal eunuchs will naturally be in high demand, and it is also appropriate to visit the ceremonial eunuch.

only……

Who is Eunuch Cao?

Southern Zhili?

Wei Zhongxian's heart skipped a beat.

As the crowd dispersed, he took two more steps. After seeing the person in front of him clearly, his eyes narrowed sharply.

Cao Huachun!

It was him who arrived.

Who is Cao Huachun?

This man was also the great eunuch during the Wanli period. He had been serving Emperor Wanli and was a popular person under Wang An.

Back then, after Wang An promoted Wei Zhongxian, he introduced him as a brother and they had a very happy conversation.

Unfortunately, because of Ke Yinyue's beaker, Wei Zhongxian eventually turned against Wang An.

In the first year of Tianqi, after Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, Wei Zhongxian used some tricks and demoted Wang An to Nanzhili to guard Xiaoling. Cao Huachun went with him.

However, Wang Anyu died in Nanjing a few years ago. Why did Cao Huachun come back?

Come back for revenge?

Wei Zhongxian was stunned and speechless for a moment.

"Ha ha……"

Cao Huachun had already stood up from his chair and bowed slightly to Wei Zhongxian.

"Oops! It's the factory owner who has arrived. I'm stupid and didn't come to meet you in time. It's a capital crime, a capital crime..."

The other party was smiling but not smiling at all, and even though he was told that he was going to be punished by death, he didn't look the least bit frightened.

Everyone, including Wang Chengen standing next to him, looked at him coldly.

Wei Zhongxian took a breath and smiled a little.

"Cao Huachun! Hehehe..."

"We haven't seen you for a few years, but our family almost forgot about you."

"What? Have you ever been well in Nanzhili? I wonder how my godfather is doing now?"

After Wei Zhongxian panicked briefly, he took two steps and sat directly at the head of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, looking up at the other party.

Upon hearing the greetings to Wang An, Cao Huachun's eyes showed a bit of anger.

The godfather of the surnamed Wei has been dead for several years, don’t you know?

Are you asking this question on purpose to hit me?

Your godfather was so kind to you back then, how did you treat your godfather?

He was bullied in Nanjing and died of grief and anger. Don't you know that?

But thinking of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, Cao Huachun still suppressed his anger and smiled.

"The factory owner is really a noble man who forgets things. My godfather has passed away from Tianqi three years ago. How can he ever be well?"

"Ah, ah, ah, our family really forgot, it turned out that he died a long time ago... Bah!"

Wei Zhongxian picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, then spit it onto Cao Huachun's shoes.

"You bastard, who made the tea? It's so cold that it's going to kill our family?"

The little eunuch who was responsible for serving tea and water was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground and trembled.

"you……"

When Wang Chengen saw that Cao Huachun's shoes were covered with saliva, he immediately started to attack.

"Uh...Cheng'en..."

Knowing that Wei Zhongxian was referring to Cao Huachun, he hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile.

"Haha, Mr. Factory, this little eunuch doesn't know how to live or die! It's already getting cold, but he still dares to make herbal tea. How about putting him to death so that Mr. Factory can feel at ease?"

The little eunuch was shaking more and more violently.

Wei Zhongxian raised his eyelids and glared over.

Hey!

Cao Huachun.

Why don't you tell me something?

It's getting cold.

What do you mean?

Want to seize the power of our family?

"There's no need to execute him. Just give him twenty sticks. Pull him down! Beat him!"

Wei Zhongxian gave a soft drink, and someone immediately pulled the little eunuch outside and started beating him.

As the little eunuch screamed, Wang Chengen's face turned paler.

Is this to scare the monkeys?

However, Cao Huachun's expression did not change, and he still looked at Wei Zhongxian so indifferently, not feeling down.

"Tell me about it, Eunuch Cao! This ceremonial supervisor has just come back from Nanzhili. What's the matter with me?"

Wei Zhongxian took another sip of the tea in his hand, but this time he didn't spit it out.

Cao Huachun said with a smile: "Ah, Mr. Factory, nothing happened. It's just that our family has received great favor from the emperor. Your Majesty has just decreed that our family should be appointed as the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies and the Chief Seal, and Wang Cheng'en should be appointed as the admiral eunuch."

"The two of us have received the emperor's orders and have important responsibilities. Naturally, we have to come to the ceremonial supervisor for a tour. Doesn't the factory owner allow it?"

hum!

Wei Zhongxian's head almost exploded after hearing this.

what!

Zhu Youjian, when you first became emperor, you made Cao Huachun the eunuch of the palm and Wang Chengen the eunuch of the admiral?

When did this happen?

You should know that there are three titles for the Director of Ceremonies.

Palm seal, pen holding, admiral.

They are respectively responsible for controlling the jade seal and seal, writing and carrying emperor Zhu's memorials, and managing the punishment of all eunuchs in the imperial city.

Over the years, Wang Tiqian has served as the eunuch holding the seal, and Wei Zhongxian has served as the eunuch holding the pen. As for the admiral eunuch, there has always been a vacancy.

After all, the 9,000-year-old Admiral of Dongchang is here, who dares to supervise all punishments for eunuchs.

But now...

Wei Zhongxian subconsciously looked at Wang Tiqian aside.

Wang Tiqian was looking at him with a sad face.

Mr. Factory Master, my identity as the palm eunuch has been wiped out.

Wei Zhongxian's hand holding the tea cup couldn't help shaking.

Cao Huachun saw him showing some panic and smiled even brighter.

"Mr. Factory, so the little eunuch who just offended you must be beaten to death if our family says he should be beaten to death!"

Bang!

As soon as Cao Huachun finished speaking.

The little eunuch who was screaming outside the house was hit on the head with a stick. His head was bleeding and he died on the spot.

boom!

At this moment, everyone froze on the spot.

No one could have imagined that Cao Huachun was so ruthless.

Wei Zhongxian was also completely stunned. Seeing the scene where his personal eunuch was beaten to death and his brain was shattered, he suddenly became furious.

"Cao Huachun, you are so brave!"

He smashed the tea cup and stood up.
