To be honest, Zhao Xun was very excited about being able to enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs to review relevant files.
After all, Zheng Jie is also one of the practitioners in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Being able to agree so readily should not only give face to the bad handsome man Feng Hao, but also give face to Yuan Tiangang and the mountain chief.
.
This is what is called looking at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face.
Yuan Tiangang is Zhao Xun's adoptive father, and the mountain chief is Zhao Xun's mentor.
With these two people supporting Zhao Xun, Zheng Jie had to give him some face, otherwise it would be unjustifiable.
At this moment, Zhao Xun realized even more the importance of holding his thighs tightly.
And there’s no need to have too many thighs, the more the better!
Compared to the Bad People's Office, Qintian Prison and other yamen, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is definitely the core among the core.
Its location is within the imperial palace and belongs to the same area as the major palaces of Daming Palace.
To put it simply, Zhao Xun's arrival in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is equivalent to entering the true core of imperial power.
Of course, this is not the first time Zhao Xun has entered the palace.
The last time Zhao Xun entered the palace, he went directly to the Zichen Palace to meet Emperor Xianlong.
Having seen such big scenes, Zhao Xun naturally has nothing to be ashamed of.
After all, Zheng Jie is just a bitch secretary of the Dog Emperor.
No matter how highly praised he is, he cannot escape the brand and label of being a domestic slave.
Zhao Xun secretly warned himself that he must not be timid and show off the momentum of a bad person.
Of course, Zhao Xun will abide by the promise he made to bad coach Feng Hao - he will not take the initiative to stir up trouble.
The eunuch responsible for receiving Zhao Xun was named Qian Shu.
This name is quite interesting.
Zhao Xun noticed that this guy looked somewhat similar to the fat boy Wangcai, and secretly thought to himself that this couldn't be Wangcai's long-lost brother, right?
But then he thought about it and felt that this possibility was not very likely.
After all, Wangcai's family was considered to be quite good in Chang'an City. Even if he really had a brother, he would not be able to become a eunuch in the palace even if he was ostracized by his family.
He must be overthinking it. There are so many similar people in the world. Maybe it's just a coincidence.
Qian Shu took Zhao Xun all the way to the records warehouse of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then introduced to Zhao Xun the regional divisions of the Province of Internal Affairs and emphasized the rules. Zhao Xun wrote them down one by one.
I have to say that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is so huge that it deserves to be the center of the imperial court.
When Zhao Xun arrived for the first time, he looked around and felt very dizzy.
Zheng Jie is still worried that he will run around and bump into the noble? Zhao Xun can't even recognize the road!
He just wanted to get into the archives and investigate the past events of Princess Xuanhuai and Nanfeng.
Now all clues point to this male favorite from the Western Regions.
What secrets were hidden in Princess Xuanhuai back then?
When Zhao Xun was playing script-killing in his previous life, he knew one thing, that is, he must not easily believe the appearance he saw at the beginning.
Because what you saw at first was probably someone else deliberately letting you see it to mislead your judgment.
Only by digging deeper and digging deeper can we find out the true truth.
Now that he is here, Zhao Xun naturally has to devote himself wholeheartedly.
He asked the eunuch in charge of the records library and collected all the files about Nanfeng.
It has to be said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs' archives are indeed very powerful. There are more than a dozen volumes of files on one male favorite.
Zhao Xun's head was as big as a bucket for a while.
How did he set up the flag in the first place? There shouldn't be a specific deadline, right?
That's all, let's make peace with it as it comes.
Let’s start from the beginning.
Zhao Xun took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then unfolded a file that was already covered with dust.
This is the earliest dossier about Nanfeng that can be found in the archives.
...
...
Nanfeng, whose original name was Guyer, was from the Kang State in the Western Regions. His family was a prominent family in the Kang State and was famous for its business.
Guyer is a concubine in the family.
Although the importance of direct descendants is not as emphasized in the Western Regions as in the Central Plains, Guyer cannot compete with his elder brothers no matter what.
Even if you continue to stay in the family, you will be able to live comfortably, but you will inevitably feel like you are dependent on others.
It was okay when his father was alive, but once his father passed away, what awaited Guyer would be the cold looks from his brothers.
In order to find a future for himself, Guyer finally chose to travel eastward and embark on the Silk Road.
The Western Regions are very far away from the Central Plains, and the only connection between them is the Silk Road that passes through the desert and Gobi Desert.
Guyer followed a caravan from Kang State and resolutely set foot on the road.
On the way, they encountered horse bandits, sandstorms, and Mobei barbarian rovers.
Many people in the caravan were buried in the sand, but Guyer was lucky to survive.
In the end, only about 30% of the entire caravan arrived alive in Chang'an, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty.
When Guyer first saw the majestic Chang'an City, his eyes were full of admiration.
Later, he and other merchants in the caravan lived in the area of the Western Market where Hu merchants gathered. They brought a large amount of spices, gems, and wine from the Western Regions, and they sold them at a good price.
Guyer was naturally ecstatic.
The money he earned from one business trip was enough for him to spend ten years. If he traveled the Silk Road a few more times, he would be able to live a lifetime of food and clothing.
Unlike relying on his family, this time he relied on himself.
However, it was difficult for Guyer to make the decision to set off immediately.
Because at this moment he was deeply fascinated by the prosperity of Chang'an City.
According to other Hu merchants, there were two million people in Chang'an City, which made Guyer find it unbelievable.
You must know that there are only a few hundred thousand people in the entire Kang State, and all of them combined are not more than half of Chang'an City!
Not to mention the towering palace city to the north of Chang'an City - the Daming Palace.
Guyer admired the Daming Palace immensely and wanted to see it with his own eyes.
This is naturally impossible on ordinary days.
Not to mention the palace city, it is difficult for ordinary people to even approach the imperial city.
But Guyer was lucky. Shortly after arriving in Chang'an City, he caught up with a grand festival - the Shangyuan Festival.
According to the traditions of the Central Plains and Chang'an, people will enjoy lanterns during the Lantern Festival.
The empress also announced as usual that there will be no curfew on the Lantern Festival.
Not only that, people can even come outside Daming Palace to see the majesty of the imperial palace.
At that time, the empress will bring her royal descendants to Danfeng Gate to enjoy the event with the people.
Guyer then came to Danfeng Gate with other Hu merchants on the Lantern Festival to join in the fun.
But what made him a little disappointed was that they were too far away from the Danfeng Gate, so they couldn't see clearly the empress and the dragons and grandsons on the Danfeng Gate. These days, Huang Guizhou was blurred like a black dot.
Guyer, who felt bored after staying for half an hour, turned around and left, only to meet the most important person in his life - Princess Xuanhuai of the Great Zhou Dynasty - on a street corner in Chongrenfang.
