Dungeons are almost a standard feature of high-end houses.
It was dark and cold there, with no sunlight all year round. Now that it was the twelfth lunar month of winter, the butler himself looked miserable again.
Entering the dungeon like this is almost a death sentence.
Obviously, Ding Wei had already had murderous intentions towards the chief steward.
The matter of Liu Demiao was like a sharp sword hanging over Ding's house. Finding the inner man and prying open his mouth was the only way to break through.
However, this matter was failed.
And it was done by a big butler who was known for his 'steadiness'.
If the chief steward hadn't made Ding his servant when he was still young, Ding Wei would have even doubted the identity of the chief steward.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two giant men who looked like iron towers stood up the butler without saying a word. Their eyes when they looked at the butler were extremely cold and devoid of any emotion.
It's like...like a robot.
boom!
boom!
boom!
After the three people left, a series of sounds of smashing things were heard in the study.
Everything in the study that was visible to the naked eye and could be smashed was smashed by Ding Wei.
She inkstones worth thousands of gold, and Ru kilns that are rare for ordinary people to see, were all broken into pieces in a matter of seconds.
Hearing the huge noise coming from the study, the servants outside the door fell silent.
terrible!
Those who can serve Ding Wei are old people in the mansion, and the minimum service period is more than ten years.
But they had never seen such an angry prime minister.
The once majestic butler also met a miserable end.
Even the chief housekeeper is in this situation, aren't they even more dangerous?
Thinking of this, everyone outside the door couldn't help but be horrified.
The next blow may fall on their heads.
The position that others could only seek in the past has now become a explosive bag, and everyone is in danger.
Whoops!
Whoops!
After waking up from his rage, Ding Wei slumped down on the only remaining chair in the room.
Where did Liu Demiao go?
Who abducted her?
What is the other party’s purpose?
Why has it been so long and yet there is no news at all?
This is obviously not normal!
The attacker took great pains to set up a spy in the house, and then took the opportunity to capture Liu Demiao. After all these efforts, the attacker could not do nothing!
In addition, it has been so long that the news that Liu Demiao is pregnant cannot be concealed.
Liu Demiao, who has been in Ding Mansion for a long time, is pregnant. It is self-evident who the child in her belly belongs to.
This child must be named Ding!
Nothing else is possible!
For those who don't know, this child is probably Ding Yu.
After all, Ding Wei is the most talented person in the Ding family. Apart from him, no one else would dare to pick this poisonous flower.
Boom!
Boom!
At this moment, a slightly vibrating announcement suddenly came from outside the door.
"Master Prime Minister, an envoy has arrived."
As he spoke, Ding Sanbao, who was delivering the message, was trembling all over. The prime minister in such a rage was terrifying.
Inside the house, Ding Wei was shocked at first when he heard that an envoy was coming, and then he started to straighten his clothes slowly.
However, his previous violent outburst had already ruined most of his appearance.
For a person of Ding Wei's status, he is served by servants in his daily life. It has been many years since he has tied his hair or dressed up from head to toe.
So, after arranging it for a while, his clothes were still not in order.
"Come here, change your clothes!"
Following Ding Wei's order, the servants waiting outside immediately began to take action.
A quarter of an hour later, Ding Wei walked to the front hall. At this time, his clothes seemed to have been completely changed.
Before he stepped into the hall, his face was originally clouded with clouds, but the moment he stepped into the hall, the coldness on his face melted away quickly as if encountering the warm sun.
What came in its place was a smile as bright as the spring breeze.
"Lei Aban is here. Ding is a little disappointed in welcoming you. I hope Aiban won't be surprised!"
There are only a few people in the world who can make Ding Wei's mood change so quickly, and Lei Yungong happens to be one of them.
And this is why it took Ding Wei a quarter of an hour to arrive.
He must adjust his emotions and respond with the best attitude.
The change of political power is often accompanied by a reshuffle.
Generally speaking, eunuchs who were powerful in the previous dynasties either fell out of favor or took a back seat when the new emperor came to the throne.
But Lei Yungong's situation is different.
In the later years of the late emperor, when the Queen Mother was regent, Lei Yungong was quite favored. Now that the officials are in office, his favor is as good as before.
Looking at the chamberlains in the palace, it can be said that Lei Yungong's popularity is unparalleled for a while. Even the chamberlains of Lan Jizong and Zhou Wenzhi, who are all well-known, cannot compare with them in terms of power.
The same applies to foreign countries.
Feng Zheng, Qian Weiyan and other old ministers retired one after another. Although Ding Wei is still the prime minister, he seems to be favored.
But only a few people know the actual situation.
Ding Wei is doing all the dirty work and tiring work. What does it mean to be an official? If others don’t know it, how can Ding Wei himself not know it?
The day when the horse is released to Nanshan is not far away.
"The Prime Minister's words have really offended me."
Lei Yungong also greeted him with a smile, even though he knew that Ding Wei was not ready to retire as prime minister.
But his situation wasn't much better.
Strictly speaking, his and Ding Wei's current situation is quite similar. In the eyes of outsiders, they appear to be very prosperous, but in reality they are suffering.
With the world people.
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and then Ding Wei went straight to the point.
"The warden is here in person today, but what are the important matters in the palace?"
"There is indeed something."
Lei Yungong nodded slightly and continued.
"The officials have issued a decree that matters will be discussed in the Chengming Hall tomorrow. Prime Minister Ding needs to agree with Fan Yong's policy."
As soon as these words came out, Ding Wei almost broke his guard.
The officials were really pushing him towards a 'dead end'!
Fan Yong's policy, okay?
Good is good!
But the opposition was overwhelming.
Even within the Ding Wei group, the final opinions could not be unified, let alone the Queen Mother.
Among this group of opponents, the Queen Mother is undoubtedly the most influential one.
what to do?
At this moment, Ding Wei was really confused.
That’s not how people are used!
The matter of disarmament has just begun, the discussion of establishing a school has not yet been carried out, and the internal problems of the Ding family have not yet been resolved.
In the blink of an eye, the officials put this difficult matter into his hands again.
On the other side, from an angle that Ding Wei could not see, Lei Yungong looked at Ding Wei with a trace of pity unconsciously.
Mr. Ding is really a bit pitiful.
The official's oral instructions were equivalent to letting Prime Minister Ding and the Queen Mother fight in the ring.
It is true that the Queen Mother already has the intention to delegate power, and as time goes by, the trend of delegating power becomes more and more clear.
But as long as there is no formal handover for a day, the Queen Mother has the power to handle major military and state affairs.
The late emperor's edict is still there, who dares to deny it?
