Seeing that he was pretending to be confused, Zheng Shiyan said bluntly: "The prince and the Duke of Yue are brothers, so I won't hide it: can you send an envoy to the capital?"
"Yes," Wan Heshun looked shocked, "The plan has been decided, shouldn't it be reported to the court?"
Zheng Shiyan kowtowed: "Prince! This matter is of great importance. We should inform our government and then jointly report it. How can we dispatch slaves in a hurry without saying anything to Duke Yue?"
After hearing this, Wan Heshun felt even more ashamed, but his expression remained calm: "I was too hasty in this matter. But I wholeheartedly think about the country, but I just made a mistake in my head. Why do you harbor such malice and rush?" Want to blame him?"
"This..." Zheng Shiyan originally expected that he would sincerely admit his mistake and let the matter go. But when he saw that he was defending himself, he did not hesitate to denounce the Mainland Party, which made him fall and never come back to Taiwan.
"That's alright!" Wan Heshun stood up angrily, "I know the righteousness of my heart, so I will recall the envoy now and invite your lord to rewrite a book to make up for his mistakes. As for Commander Zheng... please come back!"
Zheng Shiyan was immediately overwhelmed by these words and froze on the spot.
"Send off guests!" Wan Heshun shouted again, and the soldiers on both sides took him out.
"Bastard!" Lu Fangxuan punched the wall and said through gritted teeth.
"I was a little worried at the beginning," Qi Zi wandered behind him, looking a little satisfied, "I also saw it, and it was as expected. Chief Zheng is more loyal than me, but he is not good at words, which has led to the loss of our prestige and your defeat. face. Alas, what a pity..."
"Blame me for choosing the wrong person." Lu Fangxuan suddenly stopped being angry and turned to look at Qi Zi with a pair of deep eyes.
Qi Zi quickly stopped his hand and said no more.
"He will have an excuse when the time comes," Lu Fangxuan said, "Look, this opportunity is bound to benefit me."
I don't know how cold the wind in Nanjing was, which made Wan Heshun catch a cold at this moment. Today, a large number of political matters are exempted, including the matter of entering the palace and jointly presenting the memorial.
Although Lu Fangxuan had given up hope, he still wanted to do some superficial work and suggested that Wan Dang Hui, since he was ill, should send an envoy to revise the memorial. '; Wan Heshun replied in Hu Qi's handwriting, 'The envoys are all officials from the same county. If they are not familiar with the rhetoric of articles, they may not meet the wishes of the king; if they send ministers, they are not in the palace, so there may be suspicion. The Duke of Yue has been waiting for two days, and he expects the king to be in good health. '
Just when they were confused, Shen, who was living in the palace, was suddenly invited by Lu Fangxuan to come to the palace for a talk. As a local important official, Lu Fangxuan came to see him a few days late, which made Eunuch Shen a little suspicious. He had no choice but to agree, so he followed the visitor out for the time being. When I arrived at the door, I saw a sedan sitting by the road. The visitor smiled and said, "Father, this is the sedan that Mr. Lu has prepared for you. I hope you will show your respect."
Shen Jing responded politely with a cautious attitude: "My family is really grateful that Mr. Lu has this idea. However, it is inconvenient for me to sit in this sedan chair, so it is more comfortable to ride a horse. It also saves the effort of carrying people, wouldn't it be better?" "
"You are too concerned about these slaves. What are these people doing with their energy, but just to flatter you, my father-in-law? It's too late for them to thank you so much! If you don't sit down, you really misunderstood the villain's intentions."
Shen Jing knew he couldn't resist, so he sighed secretly and nodded. The man hurriedly pulled the curtains and sent him into the sedan.
The eunuch was bumpy on the sedan chair, and he felt uneasy in his heart. From time to time, he lifted the curtain and took a look. Although he didn't know the way to Nanjing, he saw that everyone was taking the main road, which made him feel at ease. He was carried to a quiet place, and then he got off the sedan with shouts from the front and rear.
Shen Jing opened the curtain, and when he looked up, he saw a plaque with three gold-inlaid characters "Qi Zifu" written on it. He was shocked and asked around: "Where is Yue Mansion here?"
"This is the residence of Qi Gong, the deputy general of Yue Mansion."
He felt like he was sweating profusely, so he had to pretend that nothing happened and walked away.
Entering the front yard and looking around, this mansion is indeed spacious, with red walls and blue tiles, and towering pavilions, which seems to have the spirit of a prince. Shen even thought that the plaque was hung in the wrong place - but this illusion of being a lucky one was immediately shattered.
Walking to the main hall, there were rows of soldiers standing on both sides, wearing uniform black armor, holding broadswords, and staring round eyes like wheels, which made people shudder.
He walked cautiously along the stone path to the hall. Qi Zi sat on the imperial chair in the middle, stood up slowly, and bowed to him.
"Eunuch Shen, Qi has been offended."
"Where are you, your lord... Yue Gong?" Shen Jing couldn't hold his tongue straight.
Qi Zi smiled sinisterly and said: "Don't get me wrong. Qi has never been able to cheat. Yue Gong will naturally take you to see him and he will not break his promise. But it doesn't hurt to sit in my house first and say a few words."
"please!"
Shen Jing wiped the sweat off his forehead, smiled at him, and sat down pretending to be relaxed.
"Eunuch Shen, what do you think of the mansion? It's probably as good as the old..." Qi Zi spoke quickly and quickly turned around, "Old prince."
"Do you want to use this as the emperor's palace?" Shen Jing asked bluntly, unwilling to talk to him.
"That's right," Qi Zi smiled, "you people in the palace are real. Now that you understand, please ask the father-in-law for permission to move here, and you should present the rewards one by one."
"Let's take it together. Our family has written a letter to King Wanjun and sent people to rush into the capital. It's easier said than done to change things again." Shen Jing went to get the tea on the table with trembling hands.
Qi Zi glanced at his hand, sneered slightly, and said: "You are Manager Shen, a person who is even ranked third among the prime ministers. If this little thing can't faze you, don't those fools look down on my father-in-law?"
"Shen Jing is just a slave. He can only say a few words in front of the emperor. If he comes up with an idea, he is really not as smart as Commander Qi."
Qi Zi tapped the table lightly and suggested: "It's better to do this. When the Holy Army arrives, you will lead them here. When the Emperor comes, if the situation changes, wouldn't it be logical for the Emperor to move to Qi Mansion?"
"Oh, it's natural! It's natural!" Shen actually clapped his hands in embarrassment.
"Do you agree or not?" Qi Zi raised his voice in order to get an accurate answer.
Shen Jing shrank and spoke reluctantly: "Okay, okay..."
"Eunuch Shen," Qi Zi smiled even brighter, "I will go with you to meet Mr. Lu. We can only talk about moving the palace to the Qi Mansion, and never say that you have been here. If it comes true, Qi Zi I will be very grateful."
"clear……"
"Gong Lu Yue!" Qi Zi waved to him standing in the garden and said with a smile, "Eunuch Shen is here to see you!"
Lu Fangxuan was cutting flowers. After hearing this, he threw down the scissors and dusted off his clothes: "It's really rare for him to take the initiative to come to see you. Go and ask Commander Zheng to bring him over and see the eunuch together."
Shen Jing stood at the door of the outer study room and bowed to the three of them.
"Why bother saluting? Just sit down and tell me what you want."
Shen Jing swallowed nervously: "I... want to talk to you about the emperor's affairs."
Lu Fangxuan remained silent and only smiled at him.
