Chapter forty-two

What's even more rare is that the middle-aged eunuch Zou Yi, who came here, wanted to tell him the truth. The other party's extraordinary demeanor was quite different from the eunuchs at all levels who came to the restaurant for dinner these days. No matter how you look at it, it should be a person of the level of red robe and red robe. You can treat him with gentleness and politeness, and you also have to tell him what he was.

Even a fool can understand the other party's intention of getting along well with each other.

Wang Tong quickly stood up from the chair, bowed and said:

"It is naturally the best thing that Eunuch Zou is willing to give in. Wang Tong is less than fourteen years old. Isn't it a title of such an adult? If Eunuch Zou doesn't dislike it, it's Wang Tong."

Zou Yi was really shocked to Wang Tong's reaction. It was not difficult to understand his intention to make friends and make friends, but a child under fourteen years old could understand so quickly and respond appropriately. Even ordinary adults might not be so appropriate.

"It's too disgusting to call me a name. It's better to call you little brother, why don't you call me big brother?"

"Since that's the case, I'm not polite."

The two sides smiled at each other, and at least the superficial relationship was much closer. Zou Yi turned around and sat down, drank a sip of water to moisten his throat, and began to tell:

"That day, you talk about your parents' hard work and filial piety. Others are telling the emperor the great truth. No one said so much, so the emperor listened to it."

It turned out that the little emperor of Wanli was vomiting with his biological mother, the Queen Mother of the Cisheng, and Emperor Wanli grew up and had his own ideas, so he was inevitably quarreling with others.

But his identity is supreme. The affairs of the Tian family are all the affairs of the world, and no one dares to persuade them. The Empress Dowager, with the support of Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, has the same noble status. In a sense, he can even depose the emperor. Emperor Wanli, who has been obedient since childhood, suddenly became stubborn and angry, and the Empress Dowager Li was also sad.

The two of them were so froze, and the people around them were all secretly anxious, but even Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, the first-class figure in the inner court and the outer court, were not suitable for admonishing and interfering in such matters. If this matter continues, the unstable dynasty of the Ming Dynasty is also a major event.

It is not a big deal for the little emperor to be suffocated all day long. Some people hinted that Zhang Cheng took the emperor out of the palace to relax. There were many examples of emperors leaving the palace for a walk, but no one was worried.

It happened that Zhang Cheng heard the little eunuch below talk about the braised pork in the delicious restaurant. However, Wanli was taught by the Queen Mother and Zhang Juzheng to practice frugality and eat vegetarian food, and the little emperor complained.

As a result, there were stories in the Delicious Restaurant. Wang Tong's truthful words made the little emperor figure out something, and he felt relieved. He went back to the palace to pay tribute to the empress dowager and said a few gossips with him.

After all, the biological mother and son are connected by flesh and blood. The little emperor Wanli, who has always been stubborn, suddenly made such a decent and filial act, which really made her feel very moved. She must talk to the palace maid and eunuch who is already in good health.

...The child has really grown up...

If a person with such a status has no emotion, it’s fine. He has to send someone to inquire about the change. Zhang Cheng, who is with the emperor, naturally would not hide anything.

After learning the reason, the empress dowager also sighed. Those who learned great scholars and cabinet bosses went to the palace every day to teach the emperor the principles of sages, which was not as effective as a child of similar age.

Moreover, in the late Jiajing Dynasty, the Longqing Dynasty did not add eunuchs to the palace. When Wanli ascended the throne, there were no eunuchs in the palace under the age of 40, and there were already problems with the labor operation in the palace. Later, in the second year of Wanli, the number of large-scale eunuchs added eunuchs to the palace was added several times, and then they recovered.

But this also brings a problem. If you are at ease with the emperor, you will feel that the eunuchs are quite old and have an impact on the emperor as well as the bosses in the court.

Having such a person of similar age, capable and moral character will be of great benefit to the emperor's character development and growth.

It was too easy to find a person within the system in the capital, and this person was the one the empress dowager wanted to find. Dongchang and Jinyiwei mobilized successively to investigate Wang Tong's ancestors clearly and the news found was constantly reported, and the better the empress dowager's impression of Wang Tong was.

The empress dowager appreciates it, and this person wants to grow up with the emperor. People with a little political acumen know what this means. If you want to be prosperous and wealthy for a long time, you must at least have a good relationship with this person, and at least you must understand the details of this person clearly.

That's why there were noisy scenes with many distinguished guests in those days. However, in the Wanli Dynasty, the mentality of the two big men inside and outside was different from the previous situation.

Feng Bao watched Emperor Wanli grow up since childhood. Now, when Emperor Wanli sees Feng Bao coming, he must be upright and serious and dare not be negligent. Zhang Juzheng is the emperor's teacher and often teaches. If Wanli makes mistakes, he will often be punished by Zhang Juzheng in the name of his ancestors and the empress dowager.

The two of them have the attitude of Wanli, and the ministers have respect for the emperor, but the elders are probably even more mentally strong when it comes to the younger generation. They are not very concerned about Wang Tong. The purpose of the view is to see if Wang Tong is suitable for being this companion, and whether the little emperor can get what benefits from it is the most important thing.

By the same token, if the little emperor loses his interest, Wang Tong will also have nothing to do with them. He is just a captain of the Jinyiwei and a soldier.

Besides, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child has a tough temper and dislike, and he will change quickly. No one can care about anything wrong. At that time, he will be considered a 100-year-old child. This is a great luck that ordinary people will never encounter in eight lifetimes.

Zou Yi spoke slowly but clearly, and his words were complicated but well organized. Many things were not explained clearly, but Wang Tong had already guessed that cold sweat had oozed from behind inexplicable ways.

Today, the emperor's "private visit" behavior was exposed, and the boring feeling was really possible that this great luck would fly away from his hands.

Zou Yi was thirsty, and Wang Tong quickly poured a glass of water and was holding a pot in his hand, but he thought of something. Since the big guys all thought it was not important, what was the reason for Zhang Cheng's intention?

Wang Tong hesitated for a while and decided to take this opportunity to ask. It was rare that Zou Yi was willing to say that he was on a high place and the more he could see, the smaller the chances of falling to death.

He put down the kettle, rubbed his hands, and asked hesitantly:

"Brother Zou, thank you for your understanding of what you said. God's will is unpredictable. Your Majesty's intentions cannot be used to speculate, but..."

Wang Tong wanted to speak but stopped, and pointed to the "Shangshen Supervisor" on the table. Zou Yi put down the teacup, his face full of admiration, patted his hands gently and said with a smile:

"Brother Wang is keen and asked the question at once!!"
