"Wang Zhi..." The young man with a handsome face but a very unique personality suddenly appeared in Wynn's mind, and he nodded and said, "Very good."
"Um?"
Zhu Jianshen was not satisfied with this general evaluation.
Wynn hurriedly added: "I'm new to this slave, so I don't know much about him. Well... he's literate. Although he's still young, he has never gone wrong in what he told him. He's just... a bit impulsive. "
"What's the impulse?"
"Some... I'm not convinced." Wynn said after careful consideration.
Zhu Jianshen smiled, "This temperament is not entirely a shortcoming. As a young man, it is normal to be a little aggressive, which is very valuable."
Huai En was a little bit disgusted and thought: Sure enough, as long as it touches Wan Guifei, everything will be good.

Back at Qianqing Palace, Zhu Jianshen said, "He will not be allowed to go to the ceremonial department in the future."
"Hey, yes." Wynn was so happy that he had pushed this little thorn out of the way, "Your Majesty, are you asking him to return to the harem to serve the imperial concubine?"
"No, let him be the standing eunuch!" Zhu Jianshen said, "Teach him some precautions in private and give you three days."
Wynn: "...I obey the order."
There was no way, the emperor's order was greater than the heaven, so Hua En could only do it.
…
Three days later, when Zhu Jianshen had just returned from the morning court and his buttocks were still hot when he returned to the imperial study, Huai En brought Wang Zhi to return.
"Your Majesty, Wang Zhi is very smart, and I have nothing to teach you."
"Well..." Zhu Jianshen put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Wang Zhi, come forward."
"Yes, my slave, long live my emperor." The boy, eleven or twelve years old, looks like a child, but his height has exceeded 1.6 meters, and he is almost catching up with Wynn. There is a little maturity and a little arrogance between his eyebrows. .
Wang Zhi bowed before stepping forward and said, "Please give me your orders, Your Majesty."
Zhu Jianshen laughed dumbly and waved his hand: "Hua En, you go and do your work first."
"Yes, slave, please leave."
"Well... young people are good." Zhu Jianshen said with a smile on his face, "I heard that you are quite crazy!"
Wang Zhi's expression changed, and he hurriedly knelt down and prostrated, "I don't dare, I know it's a crime."
"Huh? I didn't say I was going to punish you, what are you afraid of?" Zhu Jianshen laughed, "Get up."
"Yes." Wang straightened up and lowered his head and eyebrows.
"Are you still used to being in the ceremonial department?"
"Back to the Emperor, no... I'm not used to it."
"Why?" Zhu Jianshen asked with a smile, "Just say it bluntly."
Wang Zhi hesitated for a moment and then said, "I want to do something meaningful. Anyone can do this job of sorting official documents into categories."
"You want to be different, don't you?"
"Your Majesty is wise." Wang Zhi nodded.
Zhu Jianshen couldn't help but smile, "You're not very old, but your tone is quite good."
Seeing that the emperor was not displeased, Wang Zhi became a little less reserved and held his hands in his hands and said, "I want to become a person like the Three Treasures Eunuch."
"Eunuch Three Treasures..." Zhu Jianshen was stunned, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, okay! What a loud tone, but...I like it."
After a pause, "Do you know the achievements of the Three Treasures Eunuch?"
"I know, I have done detailed research." Wang Zhi nodded.
"Then do you think you can reach that level?"
"As long as the emperor gives me a chance, I can do it!" The young man didn't know the pros and cons, but relied on his passion.
However, Zhu Jianshen needs someone like this.
If he wants to achieve something, he will inevitably have a stalemate with the outer court. This is inevitable, and the meek Wynn cannot be his right-hand man.
But, having said that, Wynn also has Wynn's role.
Zhu Jianshen pondered for a moment and said: "The Chief of Ceremony is really not suitable for you, um... go to the Royal Horse Supervisor to get a job."
Among the twelve eunuchs in the inner court, the only eunuch of the horse can compete with the eunuch of the ceremonial department!
If the Inner Court's Ritual Supervisor targets the outer court's civil servant group, then the Royal Horse Supervisor's target is the outer court's military general group.
This is a very powerful department!
Wang Zhi has been in the palace for so long, and Zhen'er has spared no effort in cultivating him. How could he not know how powerful the Royal Horse Supervisor is?
The young man's blood boiled.
In those days, every time the Sanbao eunuchs went to sea, they would bring 20,000 or even more naval officers and soldiers to promote the power of the Ming Dynasty and make all barbarians fearful. How happy it was!
At this moment, he felt that he was one step closer to his idol.
"My servant obeys the order, and I thank you for your kindness." Wang Zhi bowed his head.
Zhu Jianshen smiled and said majestically: "You must be able to accept my kindness. It is a good thing to have a high spirit, but if you only have a high spirit and no ability, then it is a joke."
"Yes, I understand, I will keep it in mind."
Zhu Jian thought for a while and said, "You are too young and still need to be tempered and grown. As for the Royal Horse Supervisor, you should first register it;
At this stage... let's start with the standing eunuch. "
"Yes, I obey your order." Wang Zhi's voice trembled.
He was young, but not stupid. The emperor made it clear: I want to train you, so you must perform well.
How could he not see it.
Wang Zhi was so excited that he couldn't help himself. The young man was ready to express his enthusiasm, and his eagerness to express himself was clearly evident.
Zhu Jianshen was also in a happy mood. He needed such a person, such a sharp-edged and energetic person.
Although Wang Zhi is still young, even a child, it doesn't matter.
He is also young and has time to cultivate!
At this time, Huaien, who had just left the main hall for a moment, returned and reported: "Your Majesty, the guerrilla general Li Hong has returned to the capital and is now outside the palace gate." gōΠb.ōγg
"Oh? Quick news, quick news!" Zhu Jianshen perked up, his already good mood became even more beautiful, and he couldn't help but twist his lips...
Wang Zhi bowed knowingly and said: "Then... I will leave you."
"No need to leave, just stay here." Zhu Jianshen waved his hand. Since he planned to train him, he naturally wanted to let him know;
People trained by Sister Zhen'er are worthy of trust.
"Yes, I obey the order." Wang Zhi responded respectfully, with excitement in his heart.
…
Two quarters of an hour later, a young man wearing bright silver chainmail and a helmet, with a powerful figure, followed Wynn into the hall.
The chainmail swayed slightly with his movements, making a slight crisp sound. Wang Zhi's blood boiled when he heard it, and he couldn't help but take a second look at the person coming.
At the age of twenty-six or seventeen, he is strong and powerful. From the faint killing aura emanating from him, it is not difficult to tell that this is a general who has been fighting all year round.
Wang Zhixin yearns for it...
"Long live my humble minister Li Hong. Long live my emperor."
"Well, no gifts."
Zhu Jian looked deeply at his young and capable sister-in-law with joy in his eyes. He couldn't help but think of the scene when Li Hong bowed and proclaimed his vassal when the two met for the first time.
He was still joking at that time, but now, he is a fierce general.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Hong stood up and began to report on matters related to the Loop...
Zhu Jianshen listened quietly and nodded frequently.
After Li Hong finished his report, he said: "It's been a hard journey. I've called you back this time for the purpose of controlling barbarians."
"I understand." Li Hong nodded, raised his hands and asked, "I wonder when the emperor will order me to set off?"
"You have been running all the way, so you need to rest for two days. Don't rush now." Zhu Jianshen smiled and said, "Let your subordinates rest for two days as well."
"Yes." Li Hong smiled: "Your Majesty is benevolent."
Huaien stepped back knowingly, and when he saw that Wang Zhi was still there, he winked at him.
Wang Zhi saw it but ignored him.
The emperor didn't let me retreat, so what's wrong with you... Young Wang Zhi was very aloof.
This kid... Wynn secretly smiled bitterly: It's okay if the emperor doesn't let him serve in the Supervisor of Ceremonies, this naughty kid is too unruly.
Zhu Jianshen didn't pay attention to the micro-expressions of the old man and the young man, but started talking to Li Hong:
"You've been running around all the time these past few years. How are your family members?"
Li Hong scratched his head and said: "It's not bad!"
He said this with a guilty conscience. Calculating the days, he hadn't been home for more than two years and only exchanged letters a few times.
Zhu Jianshen also felt guilty. He was the reason why Li Hong didn't go home.
"Um... I heard that you have a son?"
"Well, I guess he will leave soon." Li Hong said with a grin, but soon his smile disappeared. He already knew about the death of the crown prince;
It was not appropriate to say this in front of the emperor who had just experienced the pain of losing his son.
Zhu Jianshen had no displeasure on his face, and nodded and said: "Okay, now that you have done something barbaric this time, I will give you a holiday and go back and take a good look.
It saves me the time when my sister...ahem, Mrs. Ling blames me for being unreasonable, haha..."
"Why, the emperor is so polite." Li Hong said with a smile, but he was secretly bitter in his heart. He could imagine what kind of sister Wanqing he would face when he returned.
However, after running around for so long, he really wanted to go back and take a look.
He missed her too.
At first, he originally wanted to take his sister Wanqing with him, but his father-in-law rejected him ruthlessly and scolded him: Which general have you seen taking his wife with him when he goes to war?
Li Hong thought so and left Jinling alone.
For more than two years, he first went to Liaodong and then to Hetao. He was so busy that he never went back once. He never even met his son.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best this time to help the army quell the Duzhang barbarians."
"okay!"
Zhu Jianshen smiled and suddenly asked: "By the way, did your godfather give you a letter?"
"No." Li Hong was a little depressed. "Since the winter month of the fifth year of Chenghua, which is the day after I got married, so far, I have not received any news about my godfather."
Zhu Jianshen heard this and sighed in disappointment, "Where do you think he might go?"
"My godfather probably... went to become a Taoist priest." Li Hong smiled bitterly, "I don't know where he went specifically."
"What kind of Taoist priest is he? I'm really convinced." Zhu Jian was deeply annoyed, "How can being a Taoist priest be more important than serving the country?"
Seeing that he was aggrieved, Li Hong hurriedly interceded for his godfather: "My godfather said that Taoist priests came down from the mountain in troubled times and retired to seclusion in prosperous times. In the past, the master of the young country was suspicious...
In today's prosperous world, the emperor is wise, so he is relieved. "
Zhu Jianshen snorted: "It's all excuses, he's just lazy, people say you have to start well and end well, he's just young and wants to be repatriated;
Zhengtong entered the dynasty in the fifth year, and it is only the eighth year of Chenghua. He has only been more than thirty years old. He is only sixty at most;
Hu Bi and Hu Aiqing worked all the way from the Yongle Dynasty to the Jingtai Dynasty, and they worked until they were over eighty before retiring. What about him?
With his body, he can live for another thirty years..."
Zhu Jianshen cursed, but Li Hong could only smile and apologize, who knew that was his godfather.
However, he also misses his godfather very much, and he misses his godfather as much as Zhu Jianshen.
Godfather, where are you?
