Eunuch Cao said: "It's not clear yet whether that person got mixed up with the guards or sneaked into the temple through someone's help."

The Holy Father was not surprised by this.

Li Shao was anxious: "If it's not among those eunuchs, it will be difficult to find him."

"Your Highness," Xu Jian advised, "this is not an easy task, and there is no need to rush it. If you really find a monkey-faced eunuch in the palace with great fanfare, it will attract people's attention."

It's not that Li Shao doesn't understand, but he can't help but be anxious.

Even when I don't remember it at all, I feel calm. Once I think of something, I will inevitably scratch my head and want an answer immediately.

Eunuch Cao sighed secretly.

He did try his best, but this matter does not mean that he will be successful if he tries his best.

"After that, I will ask the Duke to look for old documents from the Ministry of Punishment," Cao Gonggong said, "and cross-compare them to see if we can gain anything."

Xu Jian naturally agreed.

Eunuch Cao's eyes turned from several people.

For those who are working in front of the emperor, the east side does not need to be lit, but the west side must be lit up. It cannot be completely dark and appear incompetent and dull.

"Feng Chang told me a few words," Cao Gonggong said. "When he was a child, he was sold into a house with children of the same age. He learned the rules from a steward named Bao.

Guanshi Bao was also an eunuch. Before Feng Chang came to the capital, he had learned a lot about the palace rules and could speak the capital dialect. Guanshi Bao was a great help.

Xiao Xiao searched the old archives in the palace and could not find any eunuch named Bao yet.

Feng Chang said that he had seen Wang Liuliu several times in the house, and other eunuchs had also appeared, including one named Tong."

Xu Jian frowned.

"There is indeed an eunuch named Tong in the palace," Eunuch Cao continued, "but it doesn't match what Feng Chang described."

After saying that, Eunuch Cao elaborated again.

The Holy Master nodded slightly.

Xu Jian pondered.

He knew the two young father-in-laws.

One was the young father-in-law, who was in his thirties and helped manage the banquets in the palace. Xu Jian had some interactions with him at the thank-you banquet last year.

The other one was Eunuch Tong who appeared in Chenmi Hutong. According to Su Chang, the man was in his forties. He was quite thin and had slender eyes. No matter how hard he tried to describe it, he couldn't describe it. He had no characteristics.

Of these two, neither one has a monkey face anyway.

If it has a monkey face, it doesn't mean it has no characteristics.

Besides, the age doesn't match up either. According to Li Shao's recollection, the monkey face looked like he was forty or fifty years ago more than ten years ago. If he were alive now, he would be in his fifties or sixties.

As for the father-in-law Tong mentioned by Feng Chang, he was around thirty at the time. In fact, he could be considered consistent in age with the man who appeared in Chen Mi Hutong.

As for whether they are the same person, it is difficult to say at the moment.

Xu Jian thought about it, and then asked a few more questions: "Eunuch Cao, how many children have been found?"

Eunuch Cao replied: "I am only twelve years old. I just entered the palace three years ago and now I am sweeping the back garden.

He died in the 11th year of Taixing, fifty-three years ago. He was originally working for Ruan Guiren, the late emperor.

There is also a man who has just passed his thirties and is accompanying Eunuch Zhang to organize the palace banquet."

Indeed, none of them match up.

The matter was temporarily deadlocked, so the Holy Emperor put it aside and only explained the Ministry of Punishment matters to Li Shao and Xu Jian.

Li Shao didn't take his mind back, and his face was straight, so that no one could see through his absent-mindedness at a glance.

After exiting the Imperial Study Room, Xu Jian and Li Shao went back to Qianbu Corridor together.

There have been several spring rains, and recently new buds have appeared on the branches, and the early spring flowers have also exposed their buds. It is a prosperous scene.

Li Shao had no intention of looking at the flowers, and his hurried steps showed his anxiety.

Wang Gouzi followed beside him, thinking that the interview just now might not have gone well.

Before entering the royal study, His Highness was not in high spirits, but he was in a decent mood. Unexpectedly, when he came out, even his steps were filled with impatience.

"What Feng Chang told you is not nonsense, right?" Li Shao turned to Xu Jian and asked.

Xu Jian pursed her lips.

He didn't want to talk about the "child father-in-law" in front of Wang Gouzi, but Li Shao had no such defense.

The Holy One only told Li Shao not to talk to others about Dingguo Temple, but Feng Chang was not the same thing, and Xu Jian's rash hints were of no use.

Firstly, Li Shao may not be cooperative, and secondly, Wang Gouzi might figure out that Li Shao has something to hide from the people around him.

"I don't know Feng Chang very well, so I'm not sure whether he will talk nonsense." Xu Jian answered in a satisfactory manner.

Li Shao sneered: "Eunuch Cao also wants to submit a report. If it's true or false, please report it first."

After saying this, Li Shao stopped commenting and Xu Jian of course ignored the topic.

A flash of light flashed in the dog's eyes, and he was very curious about this.

He wanted to trick His Highness, but it was not a wise choice to trick him in front of Duke Fu, so he held back.

Anyway, it is impossible for the Duke to follow His Highness at all hours. It will not be too late for him to ask again when he returns to Yuqing Palace today.

When he left the palace, he had already passed Shen Zheng. He sat in the Ministry of Rites for a short time before leaving.

After dinner, Wang Gouzi helped Li Shao rinse his mouth, and pretended to ask casually: "Your Highness, is Feng Chang serving your father-in-law before the younger one is transferred here?"

Li Shao spit out the tea in his mouth: "Why did you ask about him?"

"The younger one only heard that he committed a crime and was taken away by Eunuch Cao..." Wang Gouzi smiled sarcastically, "When the younger one was first transferred, Eunuch Guo and Eunuch Cao both mentioned that he had to behave accordingly.

Be careful not to follow in Eunuch Feng’s footsteps, but no one told me what this kind of dust is like.”

"Eating the inside and outside, you have evil intentions!" Li Shao became angry when he thought of Feng Changlai.

He trusted Feng Chang so much, but he didn't expect that Feng Chang and the king were in the same group for six years!

Li Shao felt as sick as a fly when he thought that Feng Changming was obedient to him on the surface and did everything for him, but his calculations were going on behind his back.

Through reminders and reports, Feng Chang brought private goods with him, all for the purpose of harming him.

And he was led by Feng Chang, and Feng Chang didn't know how to laugh at him behind his back!

The more Li Shao thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He gritted his teeth and said to Wang Gouzi: "You must not follow in Feng Chang's footsteps.

Let me tell you, there is no joy in falling into the hands of Eunuch Cao.

Feng Chang is not dead yet. I don’t know what he has become like after being tortured by Eunuch Cao!

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If what he says is true, it will be fine, but if it is false, it will be worse than death if Eunuch Cao takes care of him later."

Wang Gouzi seemed to be frightened, his face turned pale, his neck shrank, and his voice trembled: "Your Highness, please don't scare me. How can I dare to do anything so embarrassing..."

"If you don't dare to do it, what are you afraid of?" Li Shao patted Wang Gouzi on the face.

"Hey, you are so timid," Wang Gouzi said, turning his head in a flattering manner and trying to show his face to his other half, "What did Eunuch Feng tell a lie?"

Li Shao only focused on flattering Wang Gouzi: "I don't know if I made it up to say that a child eunuch is not a child eunuch."

Wang Gouzi took a deep breath.

Child eunuch?

Eunuch Tong?!

He was in a state of confusion and wanted to ask a few more questions, but he saw that Li Shao had already stood up and gone to the clean room.

After such a interruption, Wang Gouzi could not bring the topic back again after serving Li Shao, and could only ponder it in his heart.

In fact, he didn't know Eunuch Tong, but he had heard that there was such a person around his master.

Although I don’t know exactly what Feng Chang told Eunuch Tong, it would be bad if Eunuch Cao was asked to follow the instructions...

Even if Feng Chang only said the word "child" this time, he had already opened his mouth once, and he would definitely be pried open by Eunuch Cao a second time.

No matter what, I still have to report it to the master and make preparations in advance.

Auxiliary government.

The tables in the main courtyard have also just been removed.

No one was around to wait on her. Lin Yunyan paced back and forth in the room to eat and listen to Xu Jian's talk.

When she heard about "Tong Eunuch", she couldn't help but pause.

Xu Jian said: "The eunuch Su Chang met in Chenmi Hutong claimed that his surname was Tong. Feng Chang also confessed that he had met a eunuch named Tong in his early years.

If there really was such a young father-in-law, he could not be found in the palace roster.

But if you don’t believe in Tong, then maybe Tong’s surname is him, or the fake surname they usually use.”

"Eunuch Cao is very meticulous in his work. He even dug out the almanac of Taixing who died in the eleventh year. It is expected that there will be no omissions," Lin Yunyan said. "As long as you have served as an official in the palace, there will be records."

Regardless of whether it is a purification in the palace or not, once you stay in the palace to do things, your name, surname, place of origin and other information are all available.
