First, he greatly humiliated the arrogant Wanyan Pingqiu at the Lantern Festival, giving him a bad breath and making great achievements.
This matter was known to the whole world, and it was difficult for him to do it for a while. He didn't want to be known as jealous and envious of talents.
Secondly, the Queen relied on him so much. If he killed him casually, I was afraid the Queen would be very angry. Li Wanjiang still had some scruples about the Queen.
Mainly because she was worried about her father.
Now that Xiao Chen has made a greater contribution, it would be unjustifiable if he were not given some real reward.
Anyway, no matter how he fluttered, he was still holding it in his hand. If he wanted to crush him to death, it would only take a matter of minutes.
"Xiao Chen, are you able to take on such an important task?" This was what he meant by agreement.
"If you go back to the emperor, I will do my best!" He accepted it honestly, not even being polite.
This is called doing your part.
"Well, what happened tonight can't be publicized, so I can't give you any other rewards, so why don't you concurrently take charge of this factory as the director of etiquette Bingbi?"
"The queen means to call the Kunning Palace Editing Factory." Xiao Chen said that this was the queen's idea.
"Well, just be a factory owner. You go back and make some plans. Come back and draw up a list of institutions for me to review. As for the manpower, you can figure it out yourself." Li Wanjiang's words are worth gold!
"Thank you Lord for your kindness!" Xiao Chen quickly confirmed it.
"Something happened in Kunning Palace tonight. Although you have merit, you also have responsibilities... You also have to do something to capture the assassin, so just follow the two of them to investigate."
Li Wanjiang is either not generous, or he is really generous when he is generous.
As soon as Xiao Chen was appointed an official, he immediately sent him an important errand.
Apart from anything else, just being able to work with Zhu Xiaochuan and Wu Zicheng on errands is a great honor for a eunuch!
"The queen and my beloved concubine will stay with me tonight, and then go back after catching the assassin... Everyone, please go out first, Xiao Chen, keep the rules, you two stay, I have something to say."
But everyone left, but the emperor didn't say anything for a long time.
Xiao Chen was in a state of confusion. People said that the power of God was unpredictable, and it was indeed true.
Even he can't guess what Li Wanjiang is thinking now?
"Xiao Chen, I have always been quite cold to you before. Are you quite dissatisfied with me?" He was frightened to death as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Your Majesty, thunder, rain, and dew are all holy grace!" Xiao Chen was so frightened that he knelt down.
"Well, I have such a temperament. I am cold-faced and cold-faced towards everyone. Shouli has been with me for so long, he knows it."
"Yes." Gong Shouli said hurriedly, "The emperor is cold-hearted and kind to everyone."
"The reason why I neglected you is because you are too young and too much favor has harmed you, so I want you to have more experience so that you can be worthy of important responsibilities in the future."
Li Wanjiang gave a sweet date, and Xiao Chen had no choice but to swallow it whole, but it didn't feel very sweet.
May be toxic.
"For example, you hit the person who was guarding the ceremony today. Wasn't it a little too impulsive?" Sure enough, a slap came immediately.
Xiao Chen's mind was racing, how should he answer this question?
It is safest to bow your head and admit your mistakes, but it was possible before, but not now. Now I am a factory owner who will hold real power!
A young and impulsive comment was made before taking office, which will be very detrimental to future work.
Of course, there are risks in arguing with reason. After all, this is to contradict the emperor in person, and a single accusation of violating the holy will can make him lose his head!
But Li Wanjiang is not a confused emperor, he is shrewd.
So it's best not to always be irritable when talking to him, otherwise it will be more likely to make him resentful and contemptuous.
As the saying goes, speaking with wise men relies on extensive knowledge, and speaking with wise men relies on debating...
"Your Majesty, this is not a matter of impulsiveness. I am just doing things in accordance with my duties." Xiao Chen made a decision quickly and responded in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
"If everyone were as unruly as Zhao Laifu, wouldn't everything in the palace be in chaos?"
"The Archive Hall was in chaos before! If Eunuch Gong hadn't ordered the renovation, we don't know how long it would have been in chaos."
Xiao Chen rubbed his neck and made a big statement, which made Gong Shouli stare, but Li Wanjiang secretly shook his head.
I thought to myself, you idiot Gong Shouli, you still wanted to sue someone, but now it’s better, you won’t even be able to fart if someone bites you back!
"Well, that makes sense." Li Wanjiang was indeed very reasonable.
"Shou Li, you are also at fault in this matter. You are too indulgent to your subordinates, so that they dare to mess around inside and outside the palace. There are already censors to join you... You must control them well in the future. !”
Even if this matter is in the past.
The emperor personally mediated, so Gong Shouli would not dare to use this matter to cause trouble with Xiao Chen in the future.
"Xiao Chen, who cleansed your body when you came to the palace?" Li Wanjiang seemed to ask casually.
"It's Eunuch Zhao and Eunuch Zhao who are going to answer the question to the emperor." Xiao Chen's chrysanthemums tightened and he thought it was coming.
"Zhao Gongming?" Li Wanjiang didn't seem to know who this was?
"The former leader of the Jingsi Room, the eunuch, fell ill and died." Gong Shouli said hurriedly.
"Oh? There's no proof yet?" Li Wanjiang gave a scary smile.
Xiao Chenxin said, "Don't talk nonsense with me!"
I don't believe you don't know how Zhao Gongming died? Don’t you just want to see if I am a real eunuch or a fake man?
I've got it for you.
"Eunuch Gong, could you please come over here?" It's impossible to take off your pants directly in front of Li Wanjiang. That should be regarded as rude to you, right?
"No need to avoid it." Li Wanjiang said in his heart that this guy is really smart. You know what to do without me telling him.
"Hey!" Xiao Chen scolded his mother in his mind, while he unsteadily took off his pants.
Sure enough, it's clean.
"Hey, don't tell me that old man Zhao Gongming is really good at his craftsmanship. He cut it so cleanly!" Gong Shouli, a shameless person, even came closer with a candle to admire it carefully.
"Don't blame me for being suspicious. Something like this just happened in the palace... I have to be more careful with the people around me." Only then did Li Wanjiang feel completely relieved about Xiao Chen's identity as an eunuch.
Since he was a little eunuch with nothing, he couldn't do anything too outrageous.
If that senior fellow apprentice Liao Fan had a spirit underground at this moment, he would definitely be very happy...
Seeing Xiao Chen come out of Shi Shiran, Zhu Xiaochuan hurriedly greeted him, "Little Eunuch Xiao, the emperor still has some orders?"
"No, the emperor just talked to me about other things..." Xiao Chen looked mysterious and unpredictable.
"Oh, then let's catch the assassin quickly. Eunuch Xiao, do you think the assassin has escaped from the palace?" This is what Zhu Xiaochuan is most worried about.
"I don't think so. We have strict guards inside and outside the palace. If the Baochao Department gets angry, the outside must be under martial law immediately, and the palace walls will be surrounded soon. Mr. Wu, I Are you right?" Xiao Chen said.
"Yes, the people patrolling outside did not find anyone escaping, but maybe the assassin had escaped before the encirclement." Wu Zicheng nodded but shook his head.
