Zhao Mansion, in the study. [No pop-up novel website]
At this time, it was already late, the moon was shining on the branches outside the window, and the candlelight in the room was dim.
But Zhao Junchen had no intention of resting. He just casually read the idle books that Ziji bought a few days ago. He seemed leisurely, but sometimes he frowned slightly.
I don’t know how long it took, but in the quiet night, Turán remembered the knock on the door.
Zhao Junchen responded, but the person who knocked on the door seemed to understand Zhao Junchen's nature. After knocking on the door, he opened the door and walked in. "The novel chapters are updated the fastest."
But it was Xu Qingyan.
"Master, Master Wei Huai is here."
Zhao Junchen put down the book in his hand, nodded and said: "Let him come in."
After about half a cup of tea, Wei Huai was pushed into the house in a wheelchair. Although it was clear that Zhao Junchen brought Ziji in so late, something must have happened, but his usual sinister look remained unchanged as he entered. Behind the room, he bowed to Zhao Junchen and whispered in his unique hoarse voice: "I have met the factory governor."
Then, Wei Huai stopped talking to him and just waited quietly for Zhao Junchen to speak.
Zhao Junchen didn't care about Wei Huai's temper and just waved the people in the room to leave.
When only Zhao Junchen, Wei Huai and Xu Qingyan were left, Zhao Junchen nodded to Wei Huai and finally said: "You have difficulty moving. It's so late. If something hadn't happened, I wouldn't have bothered you easily."
Wei Huai's expression did not change and he just said in a low voice: "This life of humble position belongs to the Lord. I should serve the Lord myself. It doesn't matter."
After Zhao Junchen pondered for a moment, he slowly said: "You know all these things that happened in Beijing today, right?"
After saying that, Zhao Junchen shook his head and laughed, although it was just to change the topic. But he also felt that Ziji was talking nonsense. Wei Huai was now helping Zhao Junchen control the West Factory. Is there anything going on in the capital that he didn't know about?
Wei Huai just nodded and said: "The refugees from Heze, Shandong came to Beijing to file a complaint, but the Three Laws Division of the Outer Dynasty refused to accept it. There were rumors in Beijing about this. The prince and grand master Xiao Wenruan also became furious because of this and died suddenly in Turán. If you are referring to these , all the humble positions have been revealed."
Zhao Junchen sighed. Said: "Yeah, a lot of things happened today."
With that said, Zhao Junchen changed the subject and said: "Originally, these things have little to do with me. I was the first to show my loyalty to His Majesty, and then tried every means to get rid of His Majesty's suspicion. However, the prince and I Everyone knows about my grievances, and what happened today is very clear-cut against the prince, so your majesty is still a little worried about me after all."
Wei Huai seemed to have expected it. He still had a gloomy look on his face and just asked: "So. Your Majesty, has he issued a new decree?"
"It's not Shime's important decree." Zhao Junchen frowned and said, "Your Majesty, he plans to let Luo Xiang, the son of Luo Jiamao, the Marquis of Yixing, come to Xichang to work. On the surface, he will assist me. But in fact, I'm afraid it is to check and balance surveillance. In addition, In addition, His Majesty also insulted Feng Desheng, the director of Dongchang, in front of me. As a result, Dongchang will also be resentful, and it will be difficult for us to cooperate happily in the future."
Speaking of this, Zhao Junchen shook his head slightly.
At first, Zhao Junchen was not willing to take over Xichang because Xichang was too notorious and often had to take the blame for Emperor Deqing.
But now, since Xichang's notoriety has been pinned on Zhao Junchen, Zhao Junchen has seen Xichang's power and benefits, but he is unwilling to let go easily.
After hearing Zhao Junchen's explanation, Wei Huai also frowned, but after pondering for a moment, he no longer cared.
Wei Huai replied slowly: "Don't worry, Factory Supervisor, these things are not a big deal. Although the Luo family of Yixing Marquis has won the trust of the royal family, they have successively produced three Jinyiwei commanders in more than a hundred years, which has a great influence on Jinyiwei's power. Far-reaching, but that’s all. Although our West Factory has recruited a lot of people from Jinyiwei, the bijing only accounts for one-third of the staff in the West Factory. More of them are recruited from the Three Laws Division of the Outer Dynasty and the Upper Twenty of the Beijing Middle School. Liuwei, these people are not influenced by the Luo family. What's more, with your current influence, sir, and the West Factory was established by you, even those who came from the West Factory who came from Jinyiwei will be influenced by the Luo family in the future. There’s not much to fear.”
After a pause, a sneer flashed across Wei Huai's face, and he added: "As for the resentment of the East Factory, it is nothing to worry about. After the West Factory was rebuilt, the power and influence of the East Factory were divided. There will be tension between the two factories in the future. If there is a conflict, it will just happen sooner or later, and I have been prepared for this in my humble duty."
After finishing speaking, Wei Huai's expression returned to his usual gloomy look, and he just promised in a low voice: "I will take care of you, and I won't let them cause trouble. Please rest assured, Lord Factory Supervisor."
Zhao Junchen smiled and said: "As long as you are here, I will naturally feel relieved. I just want to tell you so that you can be aware of it."
At this point, Zhao Junchen's voice was low and he added: "I'm not looking for you today because of these trivial matters, but because His Majesty has given the West Factory a new task. I think there may be some hidden secrets here, so I'm looking for you." Please explain it specifically."
Wei Huai raised his eyebrows and looked up at Zhao Junchen.
Zhao Junchen said: "Actually, I didn't expect this incident. His Majesty saw the flaw, it was the sudden death of Xiao Wen Ruan Turán. Although the diagnosis from the imperial doctor was that of a sudden attack, Xiao Wen Ruan was still in trouble. I have always cultivated my character, but I am worried to death over such a thing. After thinking about it carefully, it is not very possible. Your Majesty suspects that everything that has happened in the past few days, including the previous He Ming family murder case, may be somewhat related to each other. , so let us in the West Factory investigate."
A glint flashed in Wei Huai's eyes and he asked: "Nàme, what do you mean, sir?"
Zhao Junchen shook his head and said slowly: "Although Your Majesty is so suspicious, I am a little unsure. Although there have been one after another accidents in the past few days, and they all have the intention of targeting the prince, this time Xiao Wenruan's sudden death , if it is really done by someone with ulterior motives, the method used is different from that of He Ming’s family murder case, which is more covert and more effective, but it is not as direct and cruel as the He Ming family murder case, and it does not seem to be from the same person.”
While speaking, Zhou Shangjing's old and wise face appeared in Zhao Junchen's mind.
This ability to be so calm and direct at the fundamentals is somewhat similar to Zhou Shangjing's method.
Although the plan to frame Prince Zhu Heyu was planned by Zhao Junchen, Zhou Shangjing, Huang Yourong, and Shen Changmao, the main purpose was to capture the pretty and vulgar pomelo and the sincere Xi Deng Lina said thumbs up. Feng Ta Poro Chi Beard Disaster 挌neck 闼闵髫牌渌素鲲┬《錌?br />
However, if this matter was really done by Zhou Shangjing, Zhao Junchen would not expect Xichang to find out Shime. With Zhou Shangjing's scheming methods, he is afraid that there will be no flaws at all.
However, Wei Huai didn't know this, and Zhao Junchen didn't intend to tell him this, so after hearing Zhao Junchen's instructions, Wei Huai just nodded in agreement and said nothing else.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then, Zhao Junchen discussed some future plans of the West Factory with Wei Huai. Unknowingly, it was getting later and later, and the moon was already in the sky.
Wei Huai was framed and imprisoned by his colleagues, and then his legs were broken. Over the years, he pretended to be crazy and acted like a fool to live in embarrassment. Although the environment has changed now, his physical condition is naturally not good.
So, seeing the night getting darker, I had a long conversation with Zhao Junchen, and he looked a little tired even though he was racking his brains.
Seeing Wei Huai like this, Zhao Junchen was also considerate and did not intend to keep Wei Huai any longer. He just turned to Xu Qingyan and said: "Go and take a look. I asked the kitchen to prepare the soup. If it is ready, , just let someone serve it.”
When Xu Qingyan went to check, Zhao Junchen smiled at Wei Huai and said: "In recent days, a new cook has come to my house. He is best at making late-night snacks and is very good at it. One of the health soups not only nourishes the body, but also It also tastes great. I know you haven't been feeling well, so I asked the cook to prepare it for you. Since it's getting late, I might as well finish eating before leaving."
Zhao Junchen attached great importance to Wei Huai, so he naturally did not miss any opportunity to show his goodwill.
Loyalty is something that needs to be constantly strengthened.
Wei Huai's expression did not change, he just nodded and said: "Thank you, Mr. Factory Supervisor, you are considerate."
Zhao Junchen didn't care, he just chatted with Wei Huai and waited for Xu Qingyan to come back.
Not long after, Xu Qingyan came to the study with two maids. Naturally, the two maids carried the "health soup" that Zhao Junchen mentioned just now.
Then, Zhao Junchen and Wei Huai each took a bowl. After signaling, they each picked up and ate.
Zhao Junchen had eaten it before, but Wei Huai had eaten it for the first time.
Wei Huai was not the kind of person who was greedy for words, but after tasting this "health soup" for the first time, his expression changed slightly, and a hint of admiration flashed across his expression.
Obviously, this soup is mixed with a lot of health-preserving herbs, but there is no bitterness from the herbs. Instead, it is light and refreshing, with an excellent taste. When it falls into the stomach, it will feel warm and comfortable. It feels very comfortable while eating.
After taking a few bites, Wei Huai put down the bowl and spoon in his hand, nodded and said: "The chef in your residence is indeed extraordinary."
Hearing what Wei Huai said, Zhao Junchen couldn't help but feel proud. He turned around and told Xu Qingyan: "Since Mr. Wei likes it, nàme Qingyan, remember to reward the cook with some money later."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Junchen said to Wei Huai: "Mr. Wei, if you like this soup, how about someone copy the recipe and teach it to the cook in Mr. Wei's house? This soup may seem inconspicuous, but these days Since I have been eating it regularly, the jingshén has become much stronger than before. I think you may also need it, Mr. Wei."
After hearing what Zhao Junchen said, Wei Huai hesitated for a moment, but couldn't resist Zhao Junchen's kindness. Although he didn't care, he still nodded and agreed.
Seeing Wei Huai like this, Zhao Junchen signaled to Xu Qingyan, who left the study again, but went to ask the cook for the recipe.
However, not long after, Xu Qingyan came back with a strange expression, but his hands were empty and he did not hold the recipe.
