His secret was revealed to the public, causing Wang Zhi to briefly fall into panic. However, Zhang Bao's next words told him that the emperor wanted to see him, which brought him into panic again.
Your Majesty wants to see me.
But His Majesty the Emperor, why would this Ming Dynasty emperor come to see me specially?
Could it be that His Highness the First Prince begged for me?
At this time, Zhang Bao had no intention of resolving Wang Zhi's doubts.
"Let's go. Stop thinking nonsense. When you get to Qianqing Palace, listen carefully and talk less."
Wang Zhi nodded and followed Zhang Bao forward.
However, Wang Zhi felt like a dream all along the way.
Is what you are experiencing now true?
While thinking, the majestic palace appeared in front of him.
Walking up step by step.
Getting closer and closer to the heart of this huge palace city.
Wang Zhi also readjusted his aura during this period of time. biquge.biz
No matter what, my life was saved.
Zhao Huanong, who had been waiting outside Qianqing Palace, saw Zhang Bao and hurriedly came forward.
"Eunuch Zhang, there is something going on in the southeast. This is the message sent by the Jin Yiwei at high speed. Please present it to His Majesty as soon as possible." As Zhao Huanong spoke, he kept looking at Wang Zhi behind Zhang Bao.
Zhao Huanong was trained by Zhang Bao. He is now the governor of Dongchang and the chief eunuch of the Bureau of Ceremony. He is becoming more and more powerful in the palace. Of course, he also knows something about Wang Zhi, the young eunuch next to the eldest prince.
Zhang Bao personally took action to control Wang Zhi. In Zhao Huanong's view, this was completely to control Shang Ming, who was serving the Supreme Emperor in Nangong. Otherwise, even a young eunuch with extraordinary abilities would not let Zhang Bao take a second look.
This was also the first time that Zhao Huanong met Wang Zhi.
She has red lips and white teeth, and is quite good-looking. However, her eyes are full of timidity, and she cannot be reused. She is mediocre. Such a little eunuch can make up for eight hundred even if he does not have one thousand in the palace.
After Zhang Bao listened, he took the sealed disc and said: "Southeast, it's a matter of the Far Sea Department."
"yes."
Zhang Bao nodded, and then glanced at Wang Zhi behind him.
"You wait at the door for a while. I will call you after His Majesty has finished handling the affairs."
Wang Zhi nodded in agreement.
When Zhao Huanong who was standing aside heard this, he was suddenly startled. Does His Majesty want to see this little eunuch in person?
Zhao Huanong thought that Zhang Bao was going to send Wang Zhi back to His Highness the First Prince.
Zhang Bao glanced at Zhao Huanong and said, "You are also waiting outside. If His Majesty has orders, go and do it as soon as possible."
"Yes." Zhao Huanong responded quickly.
After the explanation, Zhang Bao took Die Wen into the Qianqing Palace.
At this time, Zhu Jianshen was still processing the memorial. When he saw Zhang Bao coming in alone, he was a little strange. Didn't he ask Zhang Bao to take Wang Zhi?
"Why come back alone?"
"Your Majesty, here is the latest Southeastern Disclosure, about the affairs of the Yuanhai Division." Zhang Bao said, then took two steps forward, put both hands of the Disclosure into Zhu Jianshen's hands, and then said: "This servant is thinking of Your Majesty." After finishing the secret disc, it's not too late to see Wang Zhi again, he is waiting outside the palace gate now."
Zhu Jianshen nodded, then opened the CD and read it.
After reading it, Zhu Jian sighed deeply and said: "I know this group of people. They have many ways to cause trouble for the court. This time, there is a way to make this timid person come out and become the boss behind the scenes, acting as these The protective umbrella of local gentry..."
"However, Zhu Yi actually went to Nanjing. He must be very sure of it. If he can't solve even this small matter, I won't dare to hand the Yuanhai Division into his hands in the future."
After saying that, Zhu Jianshen put the disc on the imperial case: "You should also take a look."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Bao said respectfully, and then picked up the disc and read it.
There was a Ying Ning Tiancheng in the Ningbo Prefecture who caused a lot of trouble for the southeastern merchants. As a result, the drum was beaten when Zhu Jianshen was getting married. Zhu Ji, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, and his colleague Liu Tong went to Ningbo in person to handle the case. The case was closed. Afterwards, although the imperial court did not issue a decree explicitly prohibiting the banning of such banks, many banks were still disbanded and quit in the midst of the storm.
Only a few years later, the new Ying Ning Tiancheng appeared again.
However, now his name is Yuanhai Guantong. After investigation by the Jin Yiwei, it was found that this Yuanhai Guantong treasure still has a strong official background and involves a high-status noble.
And under this honor, many local squires appeared.
The nature has also changed. It used to be a deposit bank, but now it is a loan bank.
Moreover, the customers of these guys are all businessmen who have obtained high sea passes.
These merchants can use the distant sea certificates in their hands to exchange for a lot of circulating silver from this far-sea bank. Of course, there is no free lunch in the world, and no one will give you free silver. What they want is half of the profits from the distant sea trade. .
This seemed like risk sharing, and the merchants thought so too, so more than 60% of the merchants exchanged a sum of money to prepare goods and add two more sea-going ships, hoping to make a big profit.
The document was originally written in black and white and could not be denied. However, a businessman took out the document and looked at it at night. Through the candlelight, he discovered that there were a few words underneath the last paragraph of the document, and then this The businessman studied it and found that there was a paragraph hidden at the end of the document: If the fleet does not return, the merchant who loaned the bank must return the loan with interest.
Good guy, naked, no, loan within loan...
After the businessman saw this passage, he panicked, went to find other people, and found that their documents had been specially processed, and the last paragraph of text was hidden.
The merchants were not happy about this, so they raised the money and returned it to Yuanhaiguantong, but they didn't accept money, they only relied on it.
Now is the situation where the two parties are fighting in court.
When Zhu Yi in Ningbo heard about this incident, he couldn't laugh or cry. He was quite helpless. He hadn't even left the sea yet, and a trade certificate for overseas trade was wrong twice. And now Zhu Yi has gone to Nanjing. Looking for the big shot.
After Zhang Bao read it, he said, "Your Majesty, isn't this an act of plunder?"
"There is some truth to the saying of plundering by clever means. These powerful officials manipulate these businessmen just like tigers poaching chickens. You order to go down and let the people in Nanjing stare at the Duke of Wei's mansion and look at this Duke of Wei. Will you still be stubborn? If you listen to Zhu Yi’s advice, then that’s it. If you don’t listen, huh..."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Bao responded quickly.
It turns out that the big shot in Nanjing is the Duke of Wei, Xu Chengzong...
"Let Wang Zhi come in."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhang Bao said and slowly exited Qianqing Palace.
Outside the Qianqing Palace, Zhao Huanong and Wang Zhi stood together.
Zhao Huanong kept looking at Wang Zhi, but Wang Zhi lowered his head, looking very afraid of Zhao Huanong.
"I heard that His Highness the First Prince was crying in the Qianqing Palace because of your incident. I don't think there is anything special about you. How can His Highness never forget you?"
Wang Zhi heard this and whispered: "Slave, I don't understand what Governor Zhao said..."
"I really don't understand, so I still understand and pretend not to understand."
"This slave really doesn't understand." Wang Zhi said quickly.
Zhang Bao is still a reasonable person, but Zhao Huanong is not even reasonable, he is thoughtful and ruthless. If Wang Zhi shows his desires in front of Zhao Huanong, Zhao Huanong will not think of sparing his life.
When he no longer has the ability to protect himself, hiding his clumsiness is a skill that Wang Zhi learned during this period.
It is not a shame to be born in a humble background. Only when you are able to bend and stretch can you become a husband...
