Just as he imagined, there were really not many chances to catch Zhang Yong in the outer city. Even if Eunuch Zhang left the palace, he rarely stayed overnight in his luxurious, low-key and connotative house. On the contrary, he always stayed in the Leopard Room.
They all have his own house, except for the palace, which is the Leopard Room. He visits these two places the most frequently.
Today is already the third day since the day Qian Wubing arrived at Uncle Anding's house. In the past few days, Qian Wubing has been out a lot. He went to Fusi in Beizhen to show off his presence, and went to Nan
The Zhenfu Secretary took a look at how Qian Ning was managing the Nan Zhenfu Department. In short, it seemed that he was no different from when he was acting as Nan Yamen in the capital half a year ago. If there is any difference, it is that in
In the eyes of others, Qian Wubing himself looked a little more calm and restrained than Half Year Qian. Also, the female guard who used to be inseparable from him had turned into a fat little man with a big face and small eyes that made everyone smile.
In Beizhen Fusi, he only stayed for a short while and then came out. As a commanding officer, his presence in Beizhen Fusi was too weak. Although there was still a room where he had his office, and people still cleaned it every day.
However, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar faces coming in and out of the yamen, he really couldn't find a sense of belonging. He sat down with the commanding officer and chatted with a few other people. Qian Wubing
He left. He mentioned the matter of the Overseas Qianhu Office to his colleagues, just to report it first and give him some fresh air. Anyway, everyone knew that this Mr. Tongzhi had no responsibility and really had to make up his mind.
At that time, we still have to report it to the future commander or Zhu Houzhao himself.
It was only when he arrived at Nanya that the familiar feeling returned to Qian Wubing's heart. The out-of-place atmosphere in Beizhen Fusi was nowhere to be seen here. The subordinates along the way greeted each other with greetings, and several hundred people greeted him.
When the households heard that he was coming, they hurried over to see him. This was the feeling of their own territory. It was a little regretful that the familiar big yellow tooth had finally promoted him to a thousand households, but he did not have this blessing.
, died of illness immediately while taking office, and he was not in Beijing during that time, so the fat and oily position of Qianhu in Xicheng was actually replaced by someone else.
It's a pity, but Qian Wubing at this time is not Qian Wubing before. After walking around in Fusang Tamsui, Dongpan, his horizons have broadened a lot. These so-called "fat fluids" are in his
In his eyes, it was not much better than a petty profit, it was just that there was no place to place his trusted followers. This kind of regret did not stay in his heart for long.
"I have been to Fusi in North Town a few times before, but I have never had the chance to go in to Fusi in South Town!" Under the rows of eaves outside the Leopard Room, Qian Wubing stood with his hands behind his back, listening to Wang beside him.
Yu sighed.
"You didn't commit any crime, so of course you have no chance to go in!" Qian Wubing looked at the palace maids and eunuchs walking around in the distance and said casually. Entering and exiting the leopard room is not an easy task, especially for him.
An official who comes to see you without being summoned.
"Sir, you also said that you can't get in if you haven't committed a crime, and only those who have committed a crime can get in. How much resentment there is! Why should I go there if I have nothing to do!" Wang Yu clicked his tongue: "I didn't know that when I saw it, I realized that it was not like that at all.
It's the same thing, I thought it was a gloomy and dark prison, full of guards with expressionless faces!"
At present, Wang Yu is following Qian Wubing, and just like the Yan family brothers, he has completely gained Qian Wubing's trust. Among the children of the aristocratic families who have been thrown into Qian Wubing's hands, he is the only one who has this kind of treatment.
Other young people who didn't know what was going on, except that they envied him for being so far away, had no idea of the reason.
Qian Wubing ignored him and looked at the figures slowly walking towards the palace gate in the distance. In the past few days, he had learned Wang Yu's ability to talk. He didn't understand why Liu Qingqing was such a silent person.
, how could I become a life-and-death friend with this guy? These two people are completely incompatible with each other!
"Wizhi! Sure enough, it's you. I saw you looked familiar from a distance, so I thought, there aren't many foreign ministers in this palace who look familiar to the Za family and have to wait here!"
Zhang Yong came over with a few young eunuchs, and started fighting from a distance, haha!
"Hello, Eunuch Zhang!" Qian Wubing smiled and clasped his fists in salute: "After a few months of separation, Eunuch Zhang looks younger and younger!"
"You guy, you just know how to entertain me. I haven't seen you for a few months, and you haven't made any progress at all. Your mouth is getting more and more slick!" Zhang Yong laughed and said: "Is this a summons from His Majesty? No way, I just came from His Majesty.
Come over there, Your Majesty has already gone to bed. He takes an hour's sleep every day at noon, and His Majesty is unstoppable!"
Qian Wubing shook his head, "Don't your Majesty like to hear me talk about things outside? He asked me to come over when I have time. His Majesty is asleep. As ministers, it's our duty to wait!"
"I'm here to pay my respects to Concubine Jing, right?" Zhang Yong chuckled, looking like I've seen through you. He knew the relationship between Qian Wubing and Li Feng'er, so he didn't believe this statement!
Qian Wubing smiled and said nothing!
"What a coincidence, Concubine Jing is taking a nap with His Majesty!" Zhang Yong took his hand and smiled: "Since you are here, there is no reason for you to wait outside this door. Come on, come to us
We sat there for a while, and the kids offered some good tea, but we couldn’t find anyone to try it with our family!”
This is of course a good thing, Qian Wubing asked for it: "Then why do you have the nerve to bother Eunuch Zhang!"
"Yi Zhi, you're going to get angry if you tell me this!" Zhang Yong chuckled and turned to look at Wang Yu, who was standing next to Qian Wubing: "This little guy looks familiar. Whose child is this?
Bar!"
It’s not that he looks familiar, it’s that he looks familiar by looking at my figure! Wang Yu naturally knows the popularity of his own figure, so he sneered in his stomach and stepped forward with a smile: "Wang Yu from the Anding Prefecture wants to say hello to Eunuch Zhang!"
"I remembered, the children of Uncle Anding's family!" Zhang Yong nodded thoughtfully: "Now I'll go on errands with Mr. Qian, do it well, and don't let Uncle Anding's name be diminished!"
Of course Wang Yu is not qualified to follow Zhang Yong in. In fact, Zhang Yong encouraged him like this, which is already a great honor. How many of the children of the noble family in Beijing can meet Zhang Yong, and how many can
Encouraged by Zhang Yong.
Seeing Qian Wubing and Zhang Yong walking into the palace gate together, Wang Yu turned his head in boredom: "Brother Yanjiu, I have something to discuss with you..."
…
"The Zajia heard that you went to those uncles and marquises and asked for five million taels. Yi Zhi, your knife is a bit too big!" Zhang Yong picked up the fragrant tea brought by the young eunuch.
He said with a smile: "You must have a share in Uncle Anding's family, otherwise, that little fat man wouldn't be by your side!"
"Half of the five million taels will be sent to the palace, and the other half will be used by them to do business with His Majesty!" Qian Wubing laughed. He knew that Zhang Yong would definitely take this.
Let me start by saying that the Sihai Fleet is now a hot spot. I can’t hide the fact that I am a two-partner of five million from others, not even the Admiral of the West Factory who has all the eyes and ears in the capital! Especially, this Admiral can be regarded as
A eunuch who loves money.
"Two million and a half million is not a small amount. The Zajia family has heard that some houses have even sold some trinkets passed down from their ancestors. In the past few days in Beijing, the market for antiques, calligraphy and paintings has been
, but something is not so good!" Zhang Yong smiled very happily, as if he was gloating from the bottom of his heart when he saw those nobles in trouble.
"This money is really not much. In April, Sihailou gave Concubine Jing five hundred thousand silver powder. I heard that when the concubine received the money, she sighed very much. This business is very profitable.
The capital is small and the profit is small. With a little more capital, when I give the empress some makeup and money, I won't make her sigh because I can't get it!" Qian Wubing said, but the conversation turned towards the topic he wanted to talk about.
"And when the little princess is born, I have to express something!" He changed the subject: "By the way, I heard that when the little princess was born, it was auspicious, and Eunuch Zhang was also waiting by your majesty's side.
, I dare to ask if this happened!"
Zhang Yong was stunned, but his mind couldn't help but follow the topic of Qian Wubing, thinking of the scene that day, and the scene in the sky that day, after a cry, the clouds gathered and the rain dispersed, and the glow spread all over the sky.
Without him answering, looking at the expression on his face, Qian Wubing already knew that the rumors about the little princess in the capital were probably true.
"It seems that the little princess is indeed a person with profound blessings!" He nodded.
"Who is of the Tian family bloodline who is not blessed with deep blessings!" Zhang Yong muttered, put the tea bowl to his mouth, and took a sip. Qian Wubing interrupted him. He was just about to test Qian Wubing, what could he do?
I can't afford to lose any money. Everything about the Sihai fleet has been interrupted.
"However, it's a little strange!" Qian Wubing looked up in confusion: "Eunuch Zhang, Wubing, I don't have much knowledge and I haven't read many books. However, there are quite a few books mentioned by people who have heard of them.
Well, it seems that in this storyteller's story, in all dynasties, no princess was born, and it was only the sky that had auspiciousness. The vision when the little princess was born that day should be regarded as auspicious! The one with auspiciousness in the sky was either the founding king.
, the Lord of ZTE is either a great sage of the generation or a famous official in troubled times. Even if this little princess has great blessings, she is only a daughter. I’m afraid she can’t bear this auspiciousness, right?”
"How can the storyteller's story be taken as true!" Zhang Yong muttered, raised his head, his eyes seemed to be in a trance: "Yi Zhi, it's not that the Za family is trying to make excuses in front of you, even if you have a relationship with the little princess,
However, in terms of title, one is the master and the other is the minister, but it has been decided that as ministers, it is always a taboo to discuss the master's affairs. There is no harm in talking about it between you and me today, but,
Don’t do this again in front of others, be careful with your words and actions!”
