Chapter 35: The Drunk Man’s Intention

As summer approaches, the weather in the capital will naturally warm up at night. In addition, the capital is the center of the Ming Dynasty, even at night, the streets are still very lively.

Wang Zhen is now in power. Although he has always lived in the palace, he is a long-time worker of the East Factory. He has the thousands of troops of the East Factory in his hands. He naturally buys a big house in this city. However, the people living in this house are his nephew Wang Lin and his godson Wang Zhongshu.

Wang Lin was ordinary and had Wang Zhen’s protection for a day and only knew how to spend the whole life. Although Wang Zhen scolded him, he still refused to listen and was nostalgic in the flower building all day long. Wang Zhen was an eunuch, so he naturally had no descendants, and the entire Wang family had only this one, so Wang Zhen could not bear to blame him, and he could only send more people to protect him.

The origin of Wang Zhongshu is quite mysterious. Three years ago, Wang Zhen suddenly brought him back on a tour, claiming that he was his adopted son and was granted the position of Thousand Households. At first, some people in the East Factory were dissatisfied. After all, they were young and had no achievements. Of course, due to Wang Zhen's power, no one directly opposed it, but there were naturally a lot of gossip below.

But Wang Zhen changed his normalcy and unexpectedly did not interfere with these messages. Wang Zhongshu did not disappoint Wang Zhen. When he was a Qianhu of the Dongchang, he used his own sharp means to rectify the Dongchang and quickly established his prestige. The fierceness of his methods made the people of the Dongchang feel scared. In addition to his deep scheming, many people in the Dongchang were even more worried. In this case, naturally no one dared to speak out, and Wang Zhongshu naturally sat firmly in the Qianhu position.

As the saying goes, people should not behave like appearance. Wang Zhongshu is young and looks like a handsome talent. He often calls out white clothes and folding fans. People who don’t know his background do not know that such a handsome and handsome young man is actually a thousand households in the East Factory. He can play with and applaud most of the people in the capital. Compared with Wang Zhen, many people are even more afraid of Wang Zhongshu because Wang Zhen is a wolf-like ambition, which is known to everyone. However, due to his great power and power, the current emperor is very favored, and no one dares to object. Wang Zhongshu is like a poisonous snake hidden in the grass, and no one knows when he will bite people.

Dongchang and Jinyiwei were both spy agencies of the Ming Dynasty. The capital was at the foot of the emperor, so they were naturally staring at them very tightly. The family in this city died, the family married a daughter, whether this husband was local or foreign, whether he was tall or short, fat or thin, they were all within the scope of their investigation. What's more, the princes of the Ming Dynasty did not dare to do anything to the third prince on the surface, but there were still investigations in secret. And the matter of the three princes choosing a teacher for the princess was not a trivial matter, and it was naturally within the scope of their investigation, not to mention that this person was still an Jinyiwei. Therefore, just two hours after this incident, detailed information was sent to Wang Zhongshu. The information included what happened in the royal palace, which was already Jiang Lang's way, and Jiang Chengzhi's final decision, etc., which was very detailed, and even the part that Jiang Lang and Yue Xiaoxia encountered on the road was not spared.

It was getting dark, and a dim light appeared in Wang Zhongshu's room. In front of the desk, Wang Zhongshu was looking at the information sent by the light. The more he looked, the more he became confused, and the more he looked, the more he was confused, and his face became worse and worse. After a while, he put the letter on one side of the desk and stood up. His hands were just behind his back, intending to walk around, when a knock on the door suddenly came from outside, and someone reported: "Young master, the master asked you to come over, he was waiting for you in the study!"

The master naturally refers to Wang Zhen. Sometimes he would leave the palace to live here for a few days. After all, in the palace now, no one dared to criticize his actions.

Wang Zhongshu was stunned, immediately put away his thoughts and said in a deep voice: "Go back and tell the master, saying that I will be there later!"

The servant whispered and went back to report his life.

Wang Zhongshu turned around and looked at the information on the desk, hesitated for a while, then picked up the pages of paper, carefully put them in his arms, then pushed open the door and said in a deep voice: "Go to the master's study!"

Two guards immediately lifted up the lanterns to guide the way in front, and Wang Zhongshu followed behind. In his mind, he began to guess Wang Zhen's intention to ask him to go now. After all, it was getting late now, so it was logical that Wang Zhen should take a rest.

Wang Zhongshu's room was not very far from Wang Zhen's study. He arrived just a few steps away. The guard who led the way stood at the door with a lantern. Wang Zhongshu stood at the door for a while before coming forward and knocking on the door. In his heart, he still didn't understand Wang Zhen's intention to call him.

"Come in!"

As soon as Wang Zhongshu knocked on the door, Wang Zhen's voice came from inside.

Wang Zhongshu immediately said respectfully: "Yes! Adopted Father!" Then he pushed the door open and closed the door after entering the room.

In the study, Wang Zhenzheng squinted his eyes and rested. The faint light shone on his face, making him look very peaceful. His slightly fat body made people who didn't know would think that he was a kind old man. He would not guess that the old man in front of him was Wang Zhen, the eunuch who controlled the government.

Seeing Wang Zhen, Wang Zhongshu immediately knelt on one knee on the ground and said respectfully: "Children, come to see the foster father!"

Wang Zhen, who was half-closing, opened his eyes at this time and said lightly: "Get up!"

"yes!"

Although Wang Zhen was Wang Zhongshu's adoptive father, Wang Zhongshu's heart had more respect and respect for Wang Zhen, and he did not dare to lose this etiquette. He stood up after thanking him.

After Wang Zhong got up, Wang Zhencai asked: "You must know all the things that happened in the Third Prince's Mansion today?"

Wang Zhongshu immediately said, "I already know about it after I have adopted father."

Wang Zhongshu was not surprised at all about why Wang Zhen knew about that. After all, he was the biggest leader of the East Factory.

Wang Zhen nodded and said, "What do you think?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Wang Zhongshu's face. He hesitated for a while before saying, "This is also the place where the child is confused. I wonder why the third prince would find a Jinyiwei to be a teacher for the princess, and even fight in the yard, which made everyone in the prince's mansion know!"

Wang Zhen smiled and said, "I know your doubts. We won't think about why these three princes did this. Now I want to ask you, who is that Wang Dacai?"

"Wang Dacai?"

Wang Zhongshu thought for a while and said, "He is a hunter. He was framed when he was in the election of soldiers and was taken to be a mate. Finally, he was selected into the Jinyiwei when he was selecting people. He had a conflict with Liu Renjie in a teahouse some time ago. Last time he fought with my subordinates, he was spotted by the third prince and wanted to be a guard. Today he was selected to be the princess's teacher."

Wang Zhen nodded and said, "It seems that this person is just an explosive household, but he is just a small person. He can't make any troubles. Just ask people to pay attention, and you must not pay much attention. After all, he is now the third prince, so the prince still has to give him the face! I asked you to come today to do something else."

Wang Zhen clenched his fists and was careful that he was all high-ranking officials in the officialdom. He had a good relationship with Ma Shun. Even if Jiang Lang was powerful, he could only be a small household, so he naturally could not threaten him, so he didn't want to spend more energy on Jiang Lang.

Wang Zhongshu also understood what he meant, nodded, and asked, "I don't know what else does the adoptive father need to do?"

Wang Zhen looked at Wang Zhongshu and said, "It's your marriage!"

"marriage?"

Wang Zhongshu was stunned and said strangely: "Why did the adoptive father suddenly mention the child's marriage?"

Wang Zhen sighed and said, "You are not young anymore, and it is time to get married. I looked at the daughters of the current ministers of the court. I thought that the most suitable for you is the princess, that is, the daughter of the third prince Zhu Yuqi!"

Wang Zhongshu was shocked and said, "Third Prince?"

Wang Zhen nodded and said, "Yes, it's the third prince. I don't need to explain what it means to be a father. You should understand that in short, if you take this princess back home, then you will be a county horse. It will be beneficial for you and for being a father. Moreover, this princess is as beautiful as a fairy. She deserves you!"
