Raising Dogs as Eunuchs [Rebirth]

Facing the emperor's fury, just by looking at the faces of the people in the court at this time, one can preliminarily tell which team they are standing in.

Zhang Hongcai is Chengwang's uncle, and he secretly had the idea of ​​letting the two of them get closer, and once he succeeds, he would let his daughter take the next position. At this time, something happened to his Zhang family, and Chengwang naturally wanted to follow. Being dragged down, King Cheng was dragged down, then the faces of those courtiers standing behind him would naturally not look good.

The situation in the DPRK and China is changing rapidly, and who knows whether the big ship he is stepping on will sink in the hidden reef in front of him.

On the contrary, the courtiers standing on King Ling's side seemed to be much more relaxed, all of them straightened their backs and looked high-spirited.

Now it is the end of the year, and the candidates for the Jiangnan patrol have not yet been decided. home.

Thinking of this, the backs of some of the ministers standing behind King Ling straightened even more.

Now the situation in the court is clear, King Ling and King Cheng each have their own advantages, and they are evenly matched. King Zhao Zhan of Ling has his back on the queen, and King Cheng Zhao Ning also has a concubine Zhen, but in comparison, Zhao Zhan's subordinates are mostly officials and lack the support of troops. Seeing that the power of the Zhang family on Zhao Ning's side is growing day by day, the people on his side feel somewhat unbalanced.

Now that I finally see someone stumbled, naturally I have to show off my might.

Zhao Minsheng looked at the expressions of the people behind him, and then glanced at Zhao Ning behind him, and saw that his face was so black that it was about to freeze.

Zhang Hongcai knelt in the middle, frowned several times and raised his head, as if he still wanted to defend himself, which made the emperor and Zhao Ning very unhappy.

Xie Yuan's case was too tight and turned too fast, which really caught them off guard. Now that there are all witnesses and material evidence, the mountain of ironclad evidence is under pressure in the hands of the emperor, and Zhao Zhan has no chance to get rid of the crime.

"Your Majesty, my nephew has always been honest, and he doesn't dare to say a word to others on weekdays. He...he definitely can't do such a thing, Your Majesty."

Zhang Hong hesitated a few times, but still raised his head submissively, wanting to defend himself a few times, to buy time for this matter to deal with, and room for maneuver.

Unexpectedly, it hit the muzzle of the gun.

"Honest? What an honest man. Although he dare not talk to strangers, he has the guts to invade tens of thousands of mu of fertile land. Now that the evidence is overwhelming, you still have to argue for him. You really have a good nephew!"

The emperor was already angry, but he was even more annoyed when he was provoked so much. He slapped the table, stood up, and threw those guilt letters directly on the face, forcing Zhao Ning to go forward. plead.

"Father, please calm down. That kid Zhang Rong has always had two faces. General Zhang was also deceived by him, so he speaks for that kind of person at this time."

The emperor looked at Zhao Ning, who was kneeling in the middle with Zhang Hongcai, and remembered the matter of the sachet in Xie Yuan's mouth that day, and couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Zhao Ning knew that if he came out to speak for others now, he would definitely get angry and be ignored for a while, but looking at the current scene, he had to say these words, and Zhang Hongcai was considered an important chess piece in his hands , and at the same time his own uncle, it is absolutely impossible for him to watch someone fold in.

But even so, Zhao Ning was still quite dissatisfied with people.

Things have come to this point, so stop thinking about saving your subordinates, and decisively abandon the car to save the handsome man, that's what a man should do.

Zhao Ning knelt on the ground, secretly glanced at Zhang Hongcai beside him, and cursed secretly in his heart.

How stupid.

Zhao Minsheng watched the drama in the middle of the morning peacefully, and as soon as the morning was over, he went to Xie Yuan's side again, thinking about how to flatter his own duke, and at the same time thinking that he should take someone to eat at noon What, but bumped head-on into Zhao Ning, whose face was covered with icicles.

This guy came out earlier than them and has been waiting here, probably because he has something to say to Xie Yuan.

"Xiao Wang has met Duke Xie."

Xie Yuan looked at the man with a cold face, as if the visitor was not kind, looked him up and down, and returned the gift.

"His Royal Highness, there is no need to be too polite."

Hearing this, Zhao Ning raised his head, and casually glanced at Zhao Minsheng behind him, but he didn't speak to him, thinking that his younger brother was a transparent person.

Zhao Minsheng had long been used to the attitudes of these people in the palace towards him, and he didn't even bother to care about these trivial details with others. He just stood quietly behind them, paying attention to Zhao Ning's attitude, words and deeds towards Xie Yuan.

"Duke Xie's investigation is really vigorous and vigorous. It only took less than three days from the time someone reported to the official to the conviction and closure of the case. If all the officials in our Great Chu Kingdom can be like Duke Du, I am afraid that the backlog of cases in the world will I can go with half of it. I really have to admire Xiao Wang."

Xie Yuan knew that Zhao Ning was angry and wanted to blame him for not giving him face, but because of Xie Yuan's power, he did not dare to speak out, so he could only blame him for playing around.

"Your Highness is just joking. I have received His Majesty's kindness, so I should try my best to serve His Majesty."

Xie Yuan glanced at the man, tilted his head and straightened his cuffs as if nothing had happened. The implication was that everything was ordered by your father, so you can find him to play with if you have the ability.

Zhao Ning was so angry that he was speechless, took a few breaths, and wanted to speak again, but Xie Yuan didn't want to wait for him, and after dismissing him with a few words, he went straight away. I was secretly happy in my heart.

In the evening of the same day, Li Nian received the imperial decree from the palace. The emperor did exactly what Zhao Minsheng said, and handed over the inspection of Jiangnan to Li's family. In five days, he was going to pack up and set off.

The matter he had been thinking about was finally resolved. Li Nian stood at the door of the Li Mansion, holding the imperial decree, very happy, but Li Qing seemed to have nothing to say. After receiving the imperial decree, it seemed that nothing happened.

Without even looking at it, he walked into the house with his hands behind his back.

"Father! This matter was facilitated with the help of Dugong Xie. Don't you plan to change your opinion of him?"

Holding the imperial decree in his hand, Li Nian said helplessly to Li Qing's back, but he still didn't get any reply.

Li Qing put his hands behind his back, looked at the stretches of green pines in the courtyard, and walked leisurely towards the study, after hearing what his son said behind him, he just shook his head and snorted coldly, and didn't speak to anyone.

But when he returned to the study and sat on the chair, he couldn't help but think of the words Xie Yuan wrote on the greeting card that day.

Even if he plays tricks, he still has a heart of innocence.

Li Qing looked at the continuous white clouds outside the window, held the small card in his hand, couldn't help but sighed, and smiled slightly.

After Zhao Minsheng came down to court, he followed closely behind Dugong Xie of his family, and went out of the palace together with others.

Xie Yuan originally wanted to go back to the mansion directly after the court, but he couldn't stand people's flattering words and put on a face. He insisted that there was a new restaurant opened in the West Market, and he made a fuss about their braised lion's head. After taking a bite, Xie Yuan couldn't resist him, so he followed.

But who would have imagined that the lion's head restaurant is really delicious, but there are so many people here, the tables are full, Zhao Minsheng pulled people in, stared around, but couldn't find an empty table.

The waiter at the side was also terrified, standing beside Xie Yuan rubbing his hands all the time, it was really a cold sweat.

"How come Duke Du is free to come over today to appreciate the honor, please come here, I will make room for you right away."

The waiter in the shop said that, he took a pot of tea and led the two of them to an elegant seat by the window on the second floor, but there was already a customer sitting on that seat.

"Guest officer, your seat has already been booked, please come back another day."

This restaurant has just opened for a few days. It hired a chef from Yangzhou who specializes in Huaiyang cuisine. The location is good and the environment is good. It also specially invited Bai Yiliu, a famous piano player in Yangzhou. All the dignitaries in the capital want to come and try it Surprisingly, this building is really overcrowded these days.

In the capital city, there are so many dignitaries and dignitaries that this restaurant can't accommodate, so over time, the mistresses here also learned to watch people order dishes.

They are all dignitaries, but there is always a distinction between high and low. You can't let a small official of the eighth rank take the seat of a high-ranking official. Some people are invited as soon as they are invited, and they can still offend them. Yes, then it may be a matter of losing his head every minute.

At this moment, Xie Yuan made it clear that he was the one they couldn't afford to offend, and the unlucky ghost on the table who came a long time before them was naturally included in the ranks of those who couldn't be offended.

After all, he is just a little imperial doctor, all his clothes are pawned, and they are not worth the price of the finger wrench in Xie Yuan's hand.

"Doctor Xu?"

"Xie Dugong! Your Highness, you are here!"

Xie Yuan looked at the person in front of him, and called out with some hesitation. After all, when Xu Xian came that day, he was in a state of fever, and before he was fully awake, the person left again, so at this time, look Seeing the person in casual clothes, Xie Yuan really didn't dare to recognize him.

Xu Yuanju was also very surprised when he saw these two people in front of him. Zhao Minsheng didn't like excitement very much and rarely went out of the palace on weekdays, so it was even more impossible to ask him to come to a restaurant for dinner.

Seeing him suddenly in such a place full of people, really opened Xu Xian's eyes.

"This lord is my friend, just let him sit at our table."

Although Xie Yuan's words solved the embarrassment of Xiaoer and Xu Xian at this time, it also made Zhao Minsheng feel a little depressed. He originally wanted to take Xie Yuan out to live the world of the two of them, but now Xu Xian This guy Xian stepped in and abruptly turned into a meal for three people, what does this mean.
