When Zhang Zhou entered the palace, he was led by Dai Yi, and when he left the palace, he was still led by Dai Yi. His attitude was completely different.
At this time, Dai Yi didn't say anything, and walked forward with his head down, as if someone owed him hundreds of taels of silver, and he just wanted to send Zhang Zhou out of the palace and never see him again in this life.
"Eunuch Dai, did I talk too much just now and reveal the secret?"
Zhang Zhou seemed to be a normal person, teasing Dai Yi.
Dai Yi slowed down a little, glanced sideways at Zhang Zhou and said, "Is this a matter of revealing secrets? There are some words... you shouldn't say."
Zhang Zhou said: "Then if I know the secret but don't tell it, wouldn't I be deceiving the emperor?"
"you……"
Dai Yi instantly felt that you were hopeless.
"Zhang Jieyuan, you are talented, courageous and loyal, but you still don't understand the rules of the court. You have already made meritorious service in donating medicine. Isn't it good to lie on the merit book and wait to receive the reward? Warn of disaster and be criticized. There is no benefit if you are right, and if you are wrong, you will be doomed..."
In Dai Yi's words, he still felt very sorry for Zhang Zhou.
After all, they were comrades who fought together when they offered medicine to save the princess. But Zhang Zhoufei wanted to jump into the fire pit, and he couldn't hold him back.
Zhang Zhou suddenly laughed and said, "Eunuch Dai, isn't what I'm saying actually what you and your father-in-laws are thinking too?"
"Um?"
Dai Yi originally only regarded Zhang Zhou as a reckless man who did not understand the rules of the court, but after hearing Zhang Zhou's words, he realized that Zhang Zhou was not only not a political novice, but also saw everything thoroughly.
Zhang Zhou Xiaoyingying continued to talk: "Everyone is thinking, but I say what I think. If I remain silent, others will still find trouble for me, and I will still not have a good life. It is better to speak out and fight. A handful! Everyone will be happy if everything goes well. If nothing goes well, I will bear all the responsibility. My father-in-law, don't you have nothing to lose?"
Dai Yi's face changed drastically.
Zhang Zhou said with emotion: "From the first day when I found the second son of the Zhu family and proposed to present the medicine together, I thought that the affairs in the palace are not something that a small person like me can control. Since people are slaves and I am fish, change No, I thought, as long as I keep these two words in my heart, I don’t care about anything else!”
Be fearless!
Dai Yi was very moved after hearing this, and sighed: "Even if this is the case, you should change your approach. For example... write down the secret of heaven, put it on His Majesty's desk, and then show it after it is fulfilled. You said it in advance , let the palace be prepared, and in the end the disaster did not come, and no one will recognize your contribution to disaster prevention."
"hehe."
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Eunuch Dai, for reminding me that I was interceding for your Majesty earlier. I am deeply moved by this. If this matter can really be overcome, I will definitely come to thank you."
Dai Yi quickly waved his hand: "Don't! It's really your honor. It's our family that thanks you."
"Haha. What Eunuch Dai said was wrong. If it came true, a fire broke out in the palace. By then, it was too late for everyone to mourn. What do you want to thank me for?"
"Well?"
Dai Yi was speechless for a moment.
Although it is really a fire, it is good for everyone, but this kind of thing is just a thought, how can I say it directly? This guy is clearly trying to trick me into thinking my true thoughts.
So cunning...
You are an old fox, but our family still regarded you as a reckless man who was ignorant of the world. We feel sorry for you. It seems that we underestimated you!
"The road ahead is not far. I'll just leave the palace on my own. Please come back. I guess the palace will need you to run around for disaster prevention and other things. Say goodbye!"
Zhang Zhougong bowed his hands and said goodbye to Dai Yi not far from Donghua Gate.
Dai Yi watched Zhang Zhou go out of Donghua Gate and left in no hurry.
He was also thinking about it in his mind.
Is this kid really able to discern the secrets of heaven? Isn't it because he said it to remind those who have grudges against Li Guang to set fire? But the problem is...
Who dares to set this fire?
"Eunuch Dai, where are you? His Majesty summoned you to go back quickly. He also summoned Tianshi Li, saying that he had important matters to discuss."
Before Dai Yi could calm down, there was a young eunuch who sent him back.
"Okay, pass on the order. The fire dragon team in the palace is on standby twelve hours a day. All the water tanks are filled with water, especially the ones outside Qingning Palace..."
…
…
Zhang Zhou was in a good mood.
Humming a song, he rode in Dai Yi's carriage and headed towards the post house where he was staying.
He was also thinking in his mind that when he first came to the capital, he should first appreciate the scenery of the capital... Although the smallpox plague in the capital has not yet dissipated, the whole family has been vaccinated. As long as he does not go to places where the epidemic is serious, it will be fine. Han Qing, have a good birthday.
The journey has been hard, and there was no time for husband and wife to be tender. Tonight is not...
Just as he was thinking about it, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Zhang Zhou almost jumped out of the front door of the carriage.
"What's going on?" Zhang Zhou opened the curtain of the carriage.
The coachman was also wronged and said quickly: "Mr. Zhang, please forgive me, someone is blocking the carriage outside."
Stop a car?
Do you think this is a taxi? Are you taking a ride with you? Or is it that someone else recognized this as Dai Yi's carriage and took the opportunity to come over and start a fight?
Zhang Zhou looked forward and saw a "strange-shaped" man standing in front of the carriage, as if he was not afraid of death. His face was shiny under the reflection of the sun, and he was smiling at him.
The reason why this person is said to be strange is because he is obviously tall, but he deliberately bends his waist forward. This is obviously a sign that he is used to being bossed around. The clothes on his body are very bright, and he looks like he is rich and powerful.
"Is your Excellency Zhang Jieyuan? My young master invites you."
The other party has spoken.
Zhang Zhou felt even more strange.
I have just arrived in the capital. I have only entered the palace gate once. No one has seen it before. I am riding in Dai Yi's carriage. How could someone intercept me halfway? It's like you know I'm going back this way?
Zhang Zhou said: "Exactly. I wonder who is looking for me?"
The other party said: "Zhang Jieyuan will know when he comes down that my young master has been waiting upstairs for a long time."
"Master Zhang, you'd better go and have a look." The coachman gave Zhang Zhou a very strange look, which clearly told Zhang Zhou that he knew something inside.
No wonder.
It turns out you brought me here on purpose!
…
…
Zhang Zhou jumped off the carriage and looked around, but saw many people who seemed to be doing their own thing on the roadside... those carrying burdens, those selling goods, those passing by... but these people were going there intentionally or unintentionally. He looked over, and judging from the appearance and vigilance of these people, they clearly looked like some personnel responsible for security work.
The Jin Yiwei brought by Sun Shangqi who accompanied him to the capital were basically the same.
The man blocking the road and talking looked like a eunuch from his appearance to his voice.
Zhang Zhou had already made an impression.
"Who is your Excellency?" Zhang Zhou walked up to the person blocking the way and asked.
When the other person smiled, a few wrinkles appeared at the corners of his mouth. Judging from the depth of the wrinkles, they were the ones that usually accompany smiles. They were all wrinkled like obesity lines.
Zhang Zhou didn't ask who it was, he pointed to the restaurant next to him and said, "Is it here?"
"Exactly."
The other party led the way and led Zhang Zhou into the restaurant.
But I saw several burly men standing at the door of the restaurant blocking the way. This time they were carrying swords directly on their waists. When I went upstairs, I saw a group of people standing there, and the person sitting in the window seat was a watcher. A very reserved-looking young man, probably eight or nine years old.
Zhang Zhou walked over.
The child said: "Are you coming...?"
He didn't say the whole thing in one sentence, which made him look very unsure.
Zhang Zhou then glanced aside and saw that there were five or six children of the same age, but their clothes were only coarse linen clothes, and they looked like followers.
The person who led Zhang Zhou up said to the sitting child: "Sir, Zhang Jieyuan is here to bring you."
"Okay, sit down." The child was much calmer this time.
Zhang Zhou was speechless.
What about chicken feathers?
Do you really think others are fools?
Zhang Zhou didn't bother to pay attention to the children sitting there. He walked up to an ordinary-looking child next to him, cupped his hands and said, "Chen Nan Zhili Township Examination Jie Yuan Zhang Zhou, see His Highness the Crown Prince."
"ah?"
This time, not only was the child called "Prince" by Zhang Zhou, but also a group of followers nearby were shocked.
Especially the one who brought Zhang Zhou up quickly came over to stop Zhang Zhou and said, "Zhang Jieyuan, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Zhou said: "The prince is full of purple energy. I can't pretend to know anything even if I want to. I don't know why His Highness the prince came to me."
The young man looked angry and couldn't hide it anymore. He walked out as if he didn't recognize his relatives. It was Zhu Houzhao who was looking for an opportunity to teach Zhang Zhou a lesson.
But before he could finish his pretense, he was exposed by Zhang Zhou. One can imagine Zhu Houzhao's depression.
"Get rid of all useless things!"
Zhu Houzhao gave the order, and then the young men, including the one sitting, retreated downstairs while a eunuch maintained order.
Zhu Houzhao sat there by himself, and beside him were all the eunuchs who often served in the East Palace. Everyone looked at Zhang Zhou eagerly.
There was a feeling of a group of people trying to beat one person up.
"It's just you, Zhang Bingkuan, right? You actually know my identity? Tell me, did Zhu Feng leak it to you in advance?" Of course, Zhu Houzhao didn't think there was anything wrong with the plan. He felt that Zhang Zhou had heard the news in advance.
Zhang Zhou thought.
You kid is not even professional in pretending to be a fool.
The body is covered in coarse linen clothes, and the collar is covered, but the boots are not well hidden. What's even worse is that the boots are inlaid with dragon patterns and gold edges. Who else in the world is qualified to wear them except you and your son?
There is such a big battle outside, do you think I can't tell that the prince is leaving the palace? If it had been anyone else, Jin Yiwei might have done this?
Zhang Zhou smiled and said: "Prince, I have seen the purple energy on your body from afar, and I am still thinking, how can there be a hidden dragon in this small restaurant?"
The anger on Zhu Houzhao's face was about to burst out, but he said coldly: "Are you showing off your skills in front of me?"
Zhang Zhou said: "If the prince is dissatisfied and wants to teach me a lesson, I think it is unnecessary, because I am about to be in disaster."
"What do you mean?" Zhu Houzhao's attention was diverted as expected.
Zhang Zhou did not hide anything and said: "I came to the palace to meet the saint. I told your majesty that there will be a fire in Qingning Palace tomorrow night. Your majesty will reprimand me and let me go home to wait for my punishment."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao laughed instead of being angry, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He laughed so hard, "You are really not afraid of death. That is where the Empress Dowager lives. How dare you say that it is going to catch fire?" ?Limited time dangerous area?”
"If there hadn't been a fire, I would have lost your head! Hahaha, there are so many idiots in the world, and you are the stupidest one I have ever seen."
