No matter how much the ancient county magistrate delayed, Jingning County was only that big, so Jingning Prince's Palace arrived soon.
In the previous dynasty, King Jingning was a wealthy and leisurely man. The location of the palace was not in a busy city, but in a beautiful place surrounded by mountains and rivers. With the completion of the palace, residences were gradually built around it, which became lively.
Got up.
Since the Zhou Dynasty, no one has stayed in this Jingning Palace, but there have always been palace staff responsible for its maintenance. At least when Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen arrived, the plaque and door of Jingning Palace were still bright red, just like the owner.
Still there.
It’s just that the door of this mansion is closed, and there are no housekeepers or servants. It seems normal, but it is not normal——
The ancient county magistrate was able to find out the news of Cui Weizhen's arrival in Jingning County. As a housekeeper in charge of a royal palace, it was impossible that he had not received any news.
The most likely possibility is that the other party deliberately shut out the new owner of this house.
She has finally seen what it means for a slave to bully his master.
The ancient county magistrate explained awkwardly: "Eunuch Xu may have gone to the farm for inspection. Today is inconvenient, so why not come back another day?"
Until now, he has not given up the idea of letting Cui Weizhen return home.
Embarrassingly, just as he finished speaking, the vermilion door made a creaking sound. The door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man without a white beard walked out. His slender eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked among the crowd.
He swept past and quickly landed on Cui Weizhen.
He walked over quickly, stood still a hundred steps away from Cui Weizhen, bowed his hands, and said in a low voice: "It turns out that Uncle Jing Ning is here. It's really a sin for our family to miss His Majesty's welcome. But since our family has received His Majesty's welcome,
My order has been to deal with various accounts of the palace and fields, but it has not been clarified yet. Uncle, you came a little early."
Listen, what he said is almost as obvious as saying that Cui Weizhen is as anxious as a nouveau riche.
It seems that his previous closed-door policy really showed his power.
Ye Zhenzhen looked angry, but Cui Weizhen was unmoved, but his eyes became more and more profound: "It's okay, I and my wife can just take a look. Although Eunuch Xu is busy with you, clarify the accounts as soon as possible, so that you can go back to the palace and enjoy peace and happiness."
.”
Eunuch Xu's face suddenly turned ugly.
Eunuchs from the palace would be sent out to take care of the properties and fields inspected by the imperial court. This kind of work was a lucrative job for some eunuchs - there were no promotion opportunities in the palace, but it would be completely different outside the palace.
Because they were the emperor's people, even the dignitaries would show respect to them when they saw them, let alone the lucrative jobs brought by taking care of the royal industry.
In a place like Jingning Palace, no one knows how much money goes into Eunuch Xu's pocket every year. Now that Cui Weizhen didn't intend to keep him, but wanted to send him back to the palace, he naturally became displeased.
How could he be willing to return to the palace and be a submissive slave when he was used to being a master outside?
Everyone can see Eunuch Xu's displeasure, and Ye Zhenzhen is also confused. She doesn't understand why Cui Weizhen wants to deliberately provoke him. Isn't he afraid that he will cause trouble in the future?
Could it be that he did it on purpose?
Ye Zhenzhen's expression suddenly became weird when she thought of his sinister character. It seemed like someone was going to be in trouble again. She just didn't know what role the Gu County Magistrate and this Eunuch Xu would play in this?
