Dongchang needs talents like you

A month later.

The spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, the grass grows and the warblers fly.

Chi Ning had been idle growing grass in the small courtyard of the Inner Prison for almost 30 days.To Chi Ning, a life with nothing to do and nothing to do is like a dry well.Sitting by the well and looking down, he felt that his whole body was going to wither.

Yuan Jun circled his chest and asked: [Is the food not delicious, or the cat not fun? 】

[It is a person who is alive but has no pursuit, do you understand? 】In the past month, everything has been calm, and the dark tide is surging in the calm water.Only Chi Ning is infinitely close to a young man who is worried about writing new words, and he cannot enjoy a life that is too quiet.

He was really not used to such a life where he didn't need to do anything. When he woke up one day, he almost thought he was back in Jiangzuo again.

The moment he stopped fighting, he must be old, no, dead!

[When will the West Factory be built?Does the empress dowager still remember that she has a grandson who is waiting for her to find something for the new emperor so that he can become the prince?After the General's Mansion received the imperial decree that the only son was given a marriage, did they just accept it? 】While worrying, Chi Ning licked the cat, and by the way harassed his only evil friend in his head,【Ahhhhh, it's so annoying, I can't do it, why don't I trouble Wen Shibao! 】

After Wen Shibao was investigated inside and out, and he really didn't know that Huang Sanniang was a rebel of Tianshu Sect, he was fished out of the prison by his grandmother, Princess Kangle.After the old princess was warned by the new emperor, she didn't dare to be a demon again for the time being.

Daqi's princess is really miserable.

【Senior brother, why haven't you come back yet? 】In the end, Chi Ning's topic turned to his second senior brother Yu Xingchui for the [-]th time.The land of Shu is not too far away from the capital, these days are enough for Yu Xingchui to return to the capital, but there is still no sign of him.

Chi Ning's godson, Xia Xia, keeps an eye on Chi Ning every day, ensuring that he will be able to pick him up as soon as the second uncle arrives.

Yuan Jun's tone was inexplicably impatient. He didn't know what happened recently. When Chi Ning mentioned his second senior brother, he was a little unhappy: 【You can't wait so long?That's right, I remember that you and Yu Xingchui have had the best relationship since childhood. 】

Jiang Zhiwei is much older than the two juniors, and his brains are really not enough. This caused Yu Xingchui and Chi Ning to report to the group to keep warm, because they had the most common topics.

[Just help me see where the second senior brother has gone. ] Chi Ning once again flattered Mr. Yuan shamelessly.

But Mr. Yuan didn't give in. He always responded with three consecutive replies of "why", "don't want to watch", and "what do you want to do". It can be said that he is a very irritable and cruel evil god.Don't be moved by mortals.

However, Yuan Jun did not agree to see the whereabouts of the second senior brother, but he still found a job for Chi Ning.

In other words, fate has already arranged the next step for Chi Ning——Qian Xiaoyu's 39th birthday has finally arrived.

As the No.1 supervisor of ceremonies, Qian Xiaoyu's birthday cannot be easily ignored.As early as a month ago, gifts and filial piety from all walks of life have been sent to Qian Xiaoyu's imperial gift mansion in the west of the city like a flowing water in the name of birthday celebration.

This house was bestowed by Emperor Su. It has been quite a few years, and Princess Kangle lives next door. However, no matter in terms of scale or the degree of excitement, the mansion of Princess Kangle cannot compete with the wealthy family. Compared with the government, even Qian Xiaoyu is just a eunuch.

The birthday banquet this time has been granted by the new emperor, so it can be organized in a big way.

Everyone is proud of being able to get an invitation letter for the birthday banquet of the Qian Mansion, but not everyone who gave the gift is qualified to come to the door. Not worth mentioning.

Qian Xiaoyu was the same as the eunuch in most people's minds, with arrogance and arrogance.Today, when his power has reached its peak, he doesn't think much about other people's feelings, and he doesn't intend to.In this regard, Qian Xiaoyu and Chi Ning are a bit similar. They both want to be happy today and then talk about it, so there is no time to care about tomorrow's instant enjoyment.

However, when Qian Xiaoyu treats money, she always has a little bit of extra grace.

He really felt that he should maintain a relationship with the "fat sheep" a little bit, and he realized the importance of sustainable development.Therefore, those who were not in status but respected others, although they were not invited, they all got a letter of thanks written by Eunuch Qian himself.

The word "handwriting" in it contains a lot of water, but it still attracts small officials and wealthy businessmen.

For a while, it seemed that a phenomenon of "Yongji paper expensive" was about to be created.

Chi Ning had already sent Qian Xiaoyu a box of yellow and white things before, but both he and Qian Xiaoyu knew well whether it was to celebrate his birthday or for other reasons.So, before the birthday banquet, Chi Ning thoughtfully sent a small box of Yuanshan incense to Qian Xiaoyu's house.

Yuanshan incense is the tribute incense that Chi Ning liked to use to smoke his sleeves.

The meaning of this thing is no longer the value, but that even if you have money and power, you will not be able to enjoy it, because it is a tribute, and the queen and other concubines will not get a few taels a year.

As soon as Chi Ning made a move, it was a box, which made countless people red-eyed.

Everyone knows that Chi Ning used to serve as Jiangzuo's defense, and Yuan Shanxiang was only produced in Jiangzuo, so it shouldn't be surprising how much he took out.However, there are still some good people scratching their hearts and lungs with jealousy, and when they wake up, they decide to find trouble with Chi Ning.

These people don't have the guts to go to the imperial court to tell Chi Ning a non-painful trick, but they will choose other people around Chi Ning to sow discord.

The central theme is just one sentence - as long as your life is better than mine, I can't stand it.

The selected "lucky guy" is Jiang Zhiwei.Just in time for Jiang Zhiwei's holiday, someone specially set up a special bureau, invited a group of admirals and young eunuchs including Jiang Zhiwei, and booked the entire Wangjiang Tower to enjoy... the brilliant lights at night.

The eunuch's drinking party can only be like this, but someone suggested that it is better to ask a few girls in cool clothes from the next street to accompany them.

However, Jiang Zhiwei was depressed by this guy who can destroy the atmosphere. He said quietly: "Have you heard that sentence? I ask you how much you can worry..."

Just like a group of eunuchs going to brothels.

Immediately I don't want to look at the girl anymore, let's look at the lamp, the lamp won't make people think of my inability to do what I want.

In today's capital, the most eye-catching place at night is probably Qian Xiaoyu's mansion. The lights are on day and night, as bright as day.A father-in-law stood by the open window while drinking, pointed to the brightest place in the distance and said loudly: "Look, is the lamp in Lord Qian's house brighter than the moon?"

All the young and inexperienced eunuchs at the banquet exclaimed with envy and hatred: "Yes, yes, Lord Qian's house is really beautiful."

Just ask which eunuch would not want to become Qian Xiaoyu?

"Linlin doesn't want to think about it." Jiang Zhiwei was a little dizzy from drinking, and he put his hands on the table to stabilize the double image in front of him.He spoke slowly, very proud of his junior, "When he was about ten years old, he would tell Master, Hiccup, he would say that he will not become anyone, he will only become himself."

The one and only Lin Gonggong.

The target of Chi Ning's sword will only be the No. 1 of the big inner power, the eunuch who is the handprint eunuch of the Supervisor of Rituals, not a specific person with a name and surname.

Some people with ulterior motives exchanged a tacit look with each other, and then the younger one said in a strange way: "My Lord Jiang, you are so kind. But, you treat some people as Brother, some people may not necessarily think so."

"What, what?" Jiang Zhiwei's mind is almost full of alcohol now, he can't turn anymore, and he speaks a little tongue, "Who? Don't you think of me as a brother?"

"That's who, how many brothers do you have?" Someone winked and hinted desperately.

"I have a lot of brothers." Jiang Zhiwei was in a daze, and he began to count his fingers for the other party. Dear, admit it, casually worship after a meal of wine and meat, of course, including those in the teacher's school, don't be too much many.

"..." Who wants to know how many brothers you have? !

The air in the entire field froze.

"Don't say a few words." Someone blatantly reprimanded and blocked, but in fact it was to break the deadlock and prevent the topic from going off track.

The instigator regrouped and continued his efforts: "Why can't I say it? Master Jiang, I sincerely respect you as a man, and I sincerely complain for you. My words are a little harsh, don't mind."

If it was on weekdays, Jiang Zhiwei would definitely say, since I find it unpleasant, I would mind, so don't say it, I'm not curious, thank you.

But today Jiang Zhiwei's reaction was a bit slow, and he spoke in a clumsy manner. Before he had time to go back, the man had already started very dramatically.

"I heard that the man gave Lord Qian a whole box of Yuanshan incense. What is the concept of a whole box? This is soft gold of inch size gold. What about you? When Chi Ning came back, he gave it again What about you?" In the end, Chi Ning's name was directly clicked, and there was no way to hide it anymore.

"Junior brother brought me fanmai, sweet potato and wolf peach, so sweet." Jiang Zhiwei was happy when he mentioned his junior brother, grinning silly, "It's delicious." He smacked his lips after speaking, as if Relish that distinctive taste.

Fanmai is corn, sweet potato is sweet potato, wolf peach is tomato.These are the potentially useful crops collected by Chi Ning under the guidance of Mr. Yuan. The former two have already been planted and spread by the common people in the coastal areas, while the latter is only limited to ornamental. The knot is like a little red lantern, beautiful and festive.It is said to be poisonous and cannot be eaten.

But Yuan Jun told Chi Ning that he could eat with confidence.

Chi Ning is also a bold person with high skills. He really did it himself and tried cooking. Whether it is cold with sugar or fried with eggs, the two flavors of sweet and salty have their own characteristics, which make people have endless aftertastes.Chi Ning immediately sent some to his second brother, together with the recipe and the cook he taught.

When he returned to Beijing, Chi Ning asked someone to deliver a lot to the elder brother's house, and he was also a recipe cook who provided one-stop service.

Chi Ning is delicious and likes to share. As long as he thinks it is good, he must let everyone he cares about eat it.Including the steamed buns he bought by accident on Zhengyang Street that day, he later strongly recommended it to Jiang Zhiwei, and paid the owner of the stall to come and cook for Jiang Zhiwei in person. hot.

Jiang Zhiwei also likes to eat, but what touched him the most was his junior brother's heart to think about him no matter what he did.

Others don't know about these things. They have never heard of fanmai, sweet potatoes, and wolf peaches, but they disdain them if they know they are eaten. Which father-in-law lacks food these days?The poor relatives who came from the countryside dared not be fooled like this!

By themselves, they continue to fight the fire.

"You make your own products. One is the priceless Yuanshan incense, and the other is food for this idea. This is something that my master and younger brother can do? If the incense leaves a fingernail for you, I don't know how many carts of grain you can buy. The person who spoke really answered the phrase "the emperor is not in a hurry to eunuchs", as if he was about to die of righteous indignation for Jiang Zhiwei.

Jiang Zhiwei: "??? Yuan Shanxiang was divided into three by my master and left to the three of us. I also have it. Why do you want it from a younger brother?"

Whether this is true or not is hard to say, it belongs to Jiang Zhiwei's conditioned reflex.No matter how valuable something is, as long as the origin is easy to be told, and the three brothers will unanimously say that it was left behind by their master.Eunuch Zhang is a good father-in-law, but there is no either-or relationship between a good father-in-law and a rich man, and no one would believe that Zhang Jingzhong left nothing behind.

Therefore, no matter what Chi Ning and others come up with as a bequest from the master, it will not make people suspicious, but will only make them more jealous of why they don't have such a good master.

Leaving a splash of wealth, there is no need to die for the elderly.

Since it was left by eunuch Zhang, then Chi Ning took this thing as a favor, and what he spent was the inheritance he got, and no one else could provoke it anymore.

but……

"Then he is not fair to you, he is also a senior brother, you are still a senior senior brother, and you are in the capital, and there is a shortage of eunuchs with the palm prints of the internal officials, why doesn't he recommend you, instead he insists on recommending Yu Xingchui at a distance? ?”

The news that Chi Ning recommended Yu Xingchui to take over as the internal supervisor finally spread like wildfire in the palace. The new emperor didn't want to keep it a secret for Chi Ning, and Chi Ning himself didn't think it was such a secret that could not be revealed.

Jiang Zhiwei's expression finally changed, with depression, embarrassment, and anger.

The instigator thought he had finally hit the spot, and before he could take advantage of the victory to pursue him, Jiang Zhiwei slapped the back of his head with a slap, and slapped him so hard on the table that his face was almost flattened.No one thought that Jiang Zhiwei would strike at the slightest disagreement, a group of sisters and sisters who were used to eunuchs who were not rude, couldn't help screaming: "Ah!" "Killer!" "Help, help, help! "

However, Jiang Zhiwei took advantage of the drunkenness, pinned down the man firmly, and forced him to ask: "Is the name of Xianxian worthy of you?!"

The eunuch who was pressed on the table has been unable to break free from Jiang Zhiwei. He really has such a strange strength.After finally being dragged up by the hair, he was knocked back to the table in succession.The whole face was swollen into a pig's head, and he could only shout indistinctly: "I was wrong, I was wrong, it's Master Yu, Master Yu."

Others are a bit afraid to approach Jiang Zhiwei, who seems to be not very good. Some people get drunk and strip naked, and some people say that they are not drunk. Jiang Zhiwei is going to kill people when he is drunk!

as well as……

The point of your anger turned out to be that the other party didn't respect your second junior brother, so they didn't listen to the previous one at all?

Of course Jiang Zhiwei heard the bullshit earlier, that's why he was so angry.He has a bad mind, but the other party has already made it clear that he has spoken ill of Chi Ning. What else does he not understand?He wasn't really a fool after all.

He would never allow someone to slander his junior like this!

These people who come to provoke must be bad people with bad intentions.To deal with bad guys, is it wrong to use violence to control violence?At least in the education Jiang Zhiwei received, there was nothing wrong with it.

The man's front teeth were finally knocked out, and his lips were covered in blood.

Only then was Jiang Zhiwei pulled and let go.

Therefore, on the first day Yu Xingchui's carriage team entered the capital, the first thing he received was not any warm reception, nor was it deep-seated lovesickness, but the elder brother Jiang Zhiwei who almost killed someone because he picked quarrels after drinking. He squatted down and asked for help.

"Xianxian, save me." After Jiang Zhiwei woke up, he found that he had returned to the familiar starting point, the prison he could not live without.He has memories of last night, but he doesn't regret it, but he is a little afraid that Chi Ning will say that he can't do things with his brain. He has sworn to the sky and promised his younger brother that he will be a puppy if he goes to prison within three months." I don't want to be a puppy."

Yu Xingchui: "???"

Chi Ning really didn't know about his big brother at this time, even though he was already half the owner of the East Factory, but after all, the official transfer order had not yet come down.The West Factory is finally almost ready, and Ma Wen is about to take up his post, and he has been very proud recently.It's just that the position of admiral has not been confirmed for Ma Wen for a day, so he can't rest assured that Chi Ning will be the admiral of the East Factory.

The two enemies met at the gate of Qian Xiaoyu's house, and today they are both celebrating birthdays.

Although Ma Wen didn't like Qian Xiaoyu's sissy style a little bit, but they belonged to Mu Chen's faction, and they still valued an offensive and defensive alliance at this time.The most important thing is that Qian Xiaoyu is now the leader of Mu Chen's faction and the eunuch with the handprint of the Supervisor of Rituals. These are beyond doubt. Although he is not convinced, he wants to show face to outsiders, lest others think he is It is the one that was abandoned.

When he saw Chi Ning, Eunuch Ma couldn't help but snarled: "Hey, look, who is this? Eunuch Lin, you're a busy person, it's really rare to see you here."

Everyone knows that Chi Ning has been so idle recently that he has no eggs and hurts. The new emperor has a very comprehensive defense against him. Without marriage selection and palm prints, he is still just the chief eunuch.Before the newly-appointed internal official inspector returned to Beijing from Shu to report on his duties, the internal official inspector was temporarily taken over by Shang Er, the eunuch of Bingbi, who was the supervisor of ceremonies.

Shang Er and Chi Ning have some sympathy for their masters, but that's all. Shang Er has no way to disobey the new emperor's desire to keep Chi Ning dry, so he can only release water secretly, and let Chi Ning be in his own heart as much as possible. It's more comfortable in the small courtyard.

But Chi Ning is not the type whose life is comfortable and the heart can be comfortable.Not to mention that he was afraid of being caught by the new emperor, so he has never returned home so far.

How much happiness can you have if you are stuck in the value room all day?

Chi Ning replied to Ma Wen with a half-smile: "I've been really busy recently, busy cleaning up the yard of the palm prints. The good place has been ruined by Zhou Haiwa."

Zhou Haiwa was dispatched to Jinling, the old capital, for bewitching the Chen family.

Of course, the crime is definitely not "bewitching the Chen family", but making a seal privately. It is not easy for people to find out if he makes a seal once or twice. If there are too many times, there will definitely be problems.Just being used as a pretext by the new emperor, Long Wei was furious and threw away his official hat.

Daqi moved to the capital, the early capital was Jinling, and later moved to Yongji.However, the old capital of Jinling still retains six departments and twelve prisons, which are almost exactly the same as Yongji's configuration.Whether it is for eunuchs or ministers, being sent to the old capital to be an official is almost a real pension.

Few of the eunuchs in Daqi were severely punished, and the few who actually died had basically reached the level of rebellion.Generally speaking, no matter how big the crime is, Long Live Lord will remember the old love and send them to Jinling together.

Chi Ning almost became the palm print of Jinling's internal supervisor at the beginning.Later, after going through many ways, he was transferred from Jinling to Jiangzuo, and only then did he have a chance to breathe.

Zhou Haiwa was not so lucky, Ma Wen would not run for him, the new emperor and the Chen family completely annoyed him, what awaited him was to end his political career early and quit the stage of the capital.

It's one thing for Ma Wen not to care about Zhou Haiwa, but it's another thing to hear Zhou Haiwa being said like this.No matter what, Zhou Haiwa's body is imprinted with a distinct imprint belonging to Ma Wen. Chi Ning not only made Ma Wen have to abandon the car to save his handsome self, but also made him hear these embarrassing old things being brought up again today. The humiliation was indescribable, Marvin felt as if he had been slapped in public, and his face was burning with pain.

"You!" Marvin stretched out his hand and pointed at Chi Ning.

However, Chi Ning no longer wanted to accompany him anymore, and he was playing tricks and talking with Ma Wen.Really boring.If you're a man, just go straight to work and fix the West Factory early, let's touch it!

The mutual checks and balances between the two factories in the east and west was proposed by Chi Ning, and it is also an important promotion tool for Chi Ning in the future. He sincerely hopes that Ma Wen can start it as soon as possible.It's a pity that no matter whether it is Ma Wen or the new emperor, they are very tired, and it is difficult to become a master by looking forward and backward.

Qian Xiaoyu's birthday banquet this time can be described as a gathering of bigwigs, not only the new emperor, empress dowager, empress, and the new most favored concubine Ji Zan all sent gifts, but also all the ministers and cabinet ministers were present.

Among them is Wang Yang, who is now the chief assistant of the cabinet.

Wang Yang was the chief assistant during the Tianhe Emperor period, and he has not been abolished in the new emperor's dynasty, because he was the first to take the lead in opposing the empress dowager's curtain and Fuyoudi's ascension to the throne.He and Qian Xiaoyu, the "inner face", have been working together for several months, but they are still...not ideal.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yang came here in person today. It seems that he and Qian Xiaoyu are going to have a tie-up.

Yuan Jun: [They all hate Sun Erba, probably they are going to team up to snipe him into the chief inspector of ceremonies. 】The new emperor's idea is that he can't trust other people now, and let Sun Erba temporarily serve as the palm of the imperial horse supervisor to protect the safety of Da Nei for him.Let Qian Xiaoyu keep the palm print of the supervisor of ceremonies first, but sooner or later it will be returned to Sun Erba.

Sun Erba also thought so, that's why he was so unscrupulous and arrogant in the palace, and based on the relationship between him and the new emperor, he had the capital to do so.

but……

How can Qian Xiaoyu be a spare tire tool person honestly?He could sit in the seat of the supervisor of ceremonies, but once he sat down, it would not be so easy for him to stand up and get out of the way.

What Xindi lacks the most is the business training before the emperor takes up the job. Many things are taken for granted.For example, no matter how much Qian Xiaoyu and Wang Yang had disagreements before, the combination of their internal and external appearances at this moment is a natural binding combination. Once their alliance is reached, it will be the end of Sun Erba.

Qian Xiaoyu's previous position was not stable enough, mainly because he was still competing with Wang Yang in secret, even in terms of appearance, there was always a distinction between superior and inferior.

Now it seems that Qian Xiaoyu has won.

Ah, don't think about it, don't think about it, this is a game that the boss needs to consider, what does it have to do with Chi Ning?

Chi Ning: [Am I saying this a bit sourly? 】

Yuan Jun: 【Be more confident, not a little bit. ] It was so sour that it was about to overflow.

Chi Ning: ...But I'm really jealous. When will he become such a top boss who can control the wind and rain, and participate in the exciting courts and storms?

[You will succeed, soon. 】Yuan Jun comforts.

【oh? 】Chi Ning's eyes lit up all of a sudden, 【What do you mean by this, are you going to help me curse the obstacles in front of me all the way? 】

【……I can.But what fun do you have in doing this?would you want it 】

[I want it, I don't want to work hard anymore. ] I really want to be a boss now.

Mr. Yuan: […]
