"Auntie Jinxiu, this is what Eunuch Zhang gave you. Zhao Jinliang sent the female official Jinxiu out of the imperial study house and took out a piece of exquisitely carved mandarin duck jade. The jade pendant looked gentle and exquisite. Anyone who knew the goods knew that if this thing was sold outside in a big jewelry store, it would definitely be robbed of a thousand gold.

Jinxiu was on duty by Empress Dowager Li, so she naturally had a broad vision and knew it was a good thing, but that was all. She smiled and accepted it, reached out and bounced Zhao Jinliang's forehead, and said:

"What's your name? My name is sister!"

In the room, Zhang Cheng's face was dark, but Emperor Wanli said with some anger:

"Can there be any abnormal movements in the palace? Could it be that I will use a knife to commit crime?"

Zhang Cheng did not respond. Emperor Wanli turned his face and looked at him, instead shook his head and comforted him:

"Parent Zhang, it's true that my mother has her own thoughts. She won't harm me. It's been a year or two that the palace garrison is under the control of Cining Palace for a year or two, so there's nothing to worry about."

When I went to Shanxi to investigate the Qin case, Empress Dowager Cisheng's statement touched Emperor Wanli a lot. Some things were helpless, but I trusted them very much in the general direction.

After hearing what Emperor Wanli said, Zhang Cheng sighed and bowed and said:

"Long lively, the Empress Dowager is in charge of the soldiers. This is naturally safe, but I am not worried about it..."

"Is Feng Daban? Although Daban is domineering, I think Daban will not do this now."

When talking about Feng Bao, Emperor Wanli paused, but still gave a positive statement. Zhang Cheng shook his head and said in a stern voice:

"With Eunuch Feng, I don't think I will do anything bold and unrestrained. I worry about someone else..."

"who?"

Emperor Wanli asked, Zhang Cheng frowned and thought, sighed and said:

"I don't know who it is, but I'm not at ease. I feel that I need to be more cautious and use a safe person to be more at ease. Emperor Wanli shook his head, picked up the memorial on the table and said:

"So many things, Zhang Fan is uneasy, so I think about everything. Zhang Juzheng... Oh... Mr. Zhang is seriously ill. The unstable thing is outside. Feng Daban is there in the palace, and the mother is catching the general. If you are unstable, you must have an instability reason. The (ban) guards outside are also used well, so don't worry too much."

Speaking of this, Emperor Wanli threw the memorial in his hand on the table and said with a sneer:

"Mr. Zhang is seriously ill, the world is in turmoil, and the palace is unstable. I really don't know if Lian is the lord of the world or Mr. Zhang is the lord of the world."

Although there was no news about the rotation of the (forbidden) guards around the emperor, the guards and guards in the palace became obviously nervous. Needless to say, the emperor, empress, imperial concubines, and concubines below, as well as several imperial concubines in the harem, all increased guard positions.

The inspection teams in the palace have increased their shifts every day. The inspections of several gates in Zi (forbidden) City and the checkpoints in the palace have become much stricter. There are eunuchs and female officials of grades, and they are either assigned by someone or they find ways to do so.

But eunuchs and palace maids lived and worked in the palace all day long, and they were familiar with each other, so they couldn't tell them how strict they checked. Some eunuchs could even avoid the jammed cards in the palace and go to the place they were going to. There were people gathering in the deserted house southwest of the imperial city. As September approached, the weather was a little hot. The doors and windows of the house were closed, and incense was lit inside. Every Chinese was sweating profusely.

"Worship the Three Yangs, believe in the Three Yangs, and the Three Yangs come to the world and return my Yang..."

The seven people knelt on the ground with their hands folded and recited silently. On them were the incense table of the Three Yang Buddhas. After reciting them over and over again, everyone stood up.

The man standing in front turned around and said shrillly:

"The Buddha has passed on the decree that in September and July, anyone who believes in him will have great wealth and honor. He has made great contributions and it is possible to resurrect the Yang root."

After hearing what this person said, the nine people standing below all had a fanatical look on their faces, and the man continued:

"There were demons who used evil magic to establish this capital. There was always a black gas in the city. Because of this black gas, the Buddha could not reduce his supernatural powers. Now that the Buddha lowered his power, the black gas was about to be broken. Once the black gas was broken, it was the day when the Pure Land came!!"

He was excited, but his voice was low. Everyone recited in unison again, and the man spoke:

"My brothers practice diligently on weekdays. It is time to repay you. You must always be prepared and not miss the opportunity!"

Everyone bowed and responded, and everyone recited the "Buddha's name" in unison.

After everything was done here, several people walked out of the house one after another, and everyone bowed their heads to walk. Fearing that the excitement on their faces would be seen by others, Li Quan in the crowd took two steps, patted his forehead, and said to the person behind him:

"Old Liu, wait and say hello to me later. I'll buy a bag of snacks outside and give me some of them when I come back.

Old Liu was stunned for a moment before nodding. Li Quan smiled and walked forward. After walking a few steps out of the yard, everyone walked separately and returned to their respective yamen.

Li Quan left for a while, but heard the footsteps behind him. The old Liu he was looking for ran after him. Li Quan quickly stopped waiting. Old Liu ran to the front, looked around from behind, and whispered:

"Xiao Li, Master Xiang has given a separate order. After this time, if anyone leaves the palace, he must report to him... I vaguely heard that there might be something to deal with. It is not a good thing, so you should not go out."

Hearing Old Liu's words, Li Quan was stunned and hurriedly said:

"Thanks to Brother Liu wake up, otherwise I would delay major issues because of this slander. Then I will go back to the side of the room to do the job. I won't say anything else, and have a drink with Brother Liu another day."

"I'm so polite. If you didn't help me with the bamboo material being cut off last time, I would have been to the washing machine. Our brothers, this is all right."

Old Liu is the leader of the Zhidian's supervision materials. He took out a lot of bamboo materials in the palace privately. When Li Quan went to collect them, the matter was exposed. Li Quan did not make any difficulties. Instead, he poured out the order and asked someone to buy them outside. The eunuch Liu accepted his affection. Two days later, the Master Xiang summoned someone to worship Buddha, but they found that they were both in the Sanyang Sect and their relationship was much closer.

The two sides said a few more polite words, then they separated and turned their backs. Li Quan's face immediately became solemn. He could not leave the palace or go to the snack shop. He had no channel to convey information.

But when the incense master said when he was preaching the Dharma, there might be something big going on recently. Li Quan was in a dilemma, but there was no way to think about it.

"A bastard, you can't do any small things well. Is it a waste of time to raise you? Pull it out and get twenty whips!!!"

Everyone was silent in the inner house of Xia Yuancheng, the deputy general of the Beijing camp. Mr. Xia was in a bad mood. The most favored servant just now sent tea in. However, after splashing a little, he was slapped twice. He asked his personal soldiers to pull them down and whip them.

The servants of the Xia Mansion also knew what was going on. Since Zhang Ge was seriously ill, the master has been upset. Every time he went to Zhang Mansion to visit him, he always had to get angry after he came back. The company commander was beaten last time, and everyone was worried that he would be in trouble.

However, the housekeeper was a little older. While telling the master's personal soldiers, he went to invite Mr. Wang over. Mr. Wang was a juren from Baoding Prefecture. He had no achievements in his career. He had served as a county instructor, but he liked to read military books and fight strategies, and was quite a bit of aligned with the art of being in line with the ranks of the ranks and bounds.

Nine years ago, when Xia Yuancheng was still doing guerrillas in Baoding Prefecture, he became Xia Yuancheng's aide. He was a very trustworthy person. In an inappropriate way, he was also a leader. It was Mr. Wang's advice that led Xia Yuancheng to the prominent position of deputy general of the Beijing Camp step by step.

Seeing Mr. Wang coming, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. The butler went over to report in panic. Xia Yuancheng repeatedly said that he would invite in soon.

Mr. Wang has a dark face and tall figure. He really doesn't look like an aide from a juren, but like the personal military generals under Xia Yuancheng. It is said that after the juren passed the imperial examination, he did not make any progress in his career because of his appearance.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Xia Yuancheng wearing a man's outer robe, not tied on the opposite side, and sat on the chair with an anxious face. When he saw Mr. Wang coming in, he was about to speak, but Mr. Wang spoke first:

"Sir, Mr. Zhang can no longer see anyone. The news that he bought a person in the Imperial Hospital for 900 taels of silver is said to be able to last for one month."

After Mr. Wang said this, Xia Yuancheng was completely deflated and he actually collapsed on the chair. Mr. Wang also looked anxious. Seeing Xia Yuancheng like this, he stepped forward a few steps and said:

"Sir!! This is not the time to be discouraged, the students have something to say!!"

After Mr. Wang shouted, Xia Yuancheng trembled and barely straightened his body. Mr. Wang stared at Xia Yuancheng and said:

"Sir, do you still remember the Qianmao who was killed a few days ago..."

"That's called garlic..."

"Sir, Mr. Qian is right. If Mr. Zhang is gone, no one will accept the Empress Dowager. No matter who sits in the position of Master Zhang in the future, will he offend the Empress Dowager for the sake of no relatives or reasons?"

"It's not me, it's Mr. Zhang..."

"Who cares, sir, who is pursuing these details?"

Xia Yuancheng seemed to have no bones, and was extremely depressed. Mr. Wang looked around and leaned closer and whispered:

"Sir, it's unknown if Mr. Zhang left, he lost his post and even died suddenly. May he be afraid of life and death, but what should he do if Mrs. Mrs.?"

"what to do?"

Deputy General Xia followed weakly, and Mr. Wang lowered his voice a little and said:

"Sir, there are people who can keep their glory and wealth!"

The words Mr. Wang said before had already knocked Xia Yuancheng's mood to the bottom. Now, this sentence suddenly came. Xia Yuancheng seemed to have caught a life-saving straw. He suddenly widened his eyes. Mr. Wang almost touched his ear and whispered two words:
Chapter completed!
