Wang Miao's personal entourage is also an authentic southerner.
His name is Wang Gongyi.
Shrewd and good at observing words and colors.
It has been ten years since I followed Wang Miao.
He looked at the face of the eunuch Cheng'en who was sitting at the top, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.
I saw Cheng'en looking at the box of gold and silver in front of him, half-smiling, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes nodding.
"Oh, we rootless people, when we see this yellow and white thing, it is like seeing our own descendants, our lifeblood..."
"With just one glance, you can no longer look away. But, although your lifeblood is good, compared with your life, your lifeblood is not that important."
"Your lord's kindness is too precious. I can't accept it without being rewarded for my merits. What's more, a Youdu censor of the Ducha Yuan should be guilty of giving such a valuable thing to an eunuch. What kind of mistakes have you made... I don't dare to accept it, I don't dare to accept it at all..."
"You, you'd better send someone to carry it back. I'm going to go see Yu Taibao now that I'm ready..."
Wang Gongyi's face changed after listening to Cheng'en's words: "Farewell, father-in-law, this is carefully selected by my family. Can you see what's underneath?"
As he spoke, he half-bent down and pushed away the gold on top. The layer below was filled with agate gemstones...
Looking at such a dazzling thing, Chengen didn't dare to be tempted at all.
He is from the palace.
He also knew that a few days ago, the Dongchang spies had already reported what Wang Miao had done in Kunming. Now that they had collected these things, they were just taking off his head and playing it as a ball.
Zhang Bao is dead.
The mountain pressing on him was gone.
Back in the capital, not only competing with Zhao Huanong, but also competing with other eunuchs, I can't afford to stumble on this matter again.
"Although this thing is good, I really can't take it. Don't ask me to say anything more. Let's go quickly..." After Cheng'en finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the backyard.
"Father-in-law, father-in-law..."
Wang Gongyi is also a little panicked now. Why does this dead eunuch not give my lord any face? Could it be that my lord is going to kill him...
Cheng En didn't care about this person. After packing up, he took a carriage to the official post.
At the gate of Guanyi, I met Shen Yiming who had just arrived.
Shen Yiming is less than fifty years old. He is tall and has sharp eyebrows and hawk-like eyes. He looks really good. Standing in front of him, Cheng'en looks like a skinny old woman...
Shen Yiming is the Yunnan garrison eunuch. He took office in the 13th year of Chenghua. He is subordinate to the imperial eunuch and is two levels lower than Chengen, but his actual power is much greater than Chengen.
Although Yunnan is remote, the governor supervises the mines, forest farms, and the army.
Shen Yiming was also the filial son and grandson of Zhang Bao, but he followed a different path from Zhao Huanong and others. After the Battle of Beijing, he became the eunuch of the Datong Prefecture Supervisory Army at the age of 23, and then six years later he became the Supervisor of the Liaodong Army. Eunuch, at the age of thirty-six, he became the supervisor of the third battalion of the tenth regiment of the capital, and then in the twelfth year of Chenghua, he led the eunuch to guard Yunnan.
Although he is a eunuch, his days in Miyagi City are pitiful.
"Eunuch Shen, here you go..."
"Eunuch Cheng'en is here too..."
After two people meet, they salute each other.
Chengen had a smile on his face and was not in a hurry to go in. He just said lightly: "Huh, I don't know how the royal censor of the royal capital thought of sending someone to invite me to come and pay homage to the Taibao. I didn't think so. Give me this old bone with countless gold and silver treasures. I wonder if the royal censor of the capital also gave it to Eunuch Shen..."
"Hahaha, I'm just a guard in Yunnan. The Imperial Censor doesn't look down on me, so why would he spend so much money on me? It seems that Eunuch Cheng'en already has his coffin."
"If I accept it, do I still dare to say it? Look at all the things he has done. Who dares to ask for his money..."
The two eunuchs were not afraid of the guards of Guanyi listening to their conversation outside the door.
After a brief chat, the two of them entered the official post together.
Although the Duke of Guizhou received Wang Miao's invitation, he did not come. He only asked his staff to greet Yu Qian and presented him with a table of wine and food prepared by the chef of the Duke of Guizhou's palace.
Although the Duke of Guizhou is young, he also knows that it is taboo for him to go to the official post office. Although he also wants to meet Yu Qian, who is famous all over the world, he still endures it...
After Shen Yiming and Cheng En arrived at the official post office, they went directly to the lobby.
At this time, the conversation between Yu Qian and Wang Miao about the appeasement strategy had ended. Wang Miao saw the silence and asked Yu Qian from time to time what he had seen along the way.
And Yu Qian only had some, and occasionally said a word or two, but was not very interested...
Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, Cheng En and Shen Yiming arrived.
Wang Miao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stood up to greet him.
Shen Yiming walked the fastest, ignoring Wang Miao's smiling face, passed Wang Miao directly, came to Yu Qian, bowed and saluted: "I have seen Yu Taibao, Yu Taibao is still in good health these days... …”
This did not give Wang Miao, a high-ranking member of the imperial court, any face, and the smile on Wang Miao's face froze instantly. He gritted his teeth and endured it.
"Eunuch Shen is worried about me. I am in good health..."
"That's good. When Yu Taibao comes to Kunming this time, he must stay for a while. I know a good place nearby, and I will take Yu Taibao there to have a look..."
"good……"
Listening to the conversation between the two people, Wang Miao didn't feel embarrassed at all. He looked at Cheng'en, nodded and smiled.
Chengen also nodded towards him and smiled in return, which made Wang Miao instantly feel confident. It seemed that Chengen had accepted his money, so that he would not talk nonsense after returning to the capital.
What's more, if you were an official in the Ming Dynasty and there was no one in the palace who could speak to you, you would not be able to serve for long.
From now on, when Cheng'en is in the palace and I am in the former court, we will be the new Zhang Bao and Yu Qian. When the time comes, we will just leave Xu Youzhen and go it alone...
Wang Miao is still looking forward to a better tomorrow, but he doesn't know that his trusted confidant has abandoned him and ran away with his money...
Big people have their own ways to improve, and small people have their own ways to survive.
Wang Gongyi thought that Chengen was from the palace, and he must know a lot of things. A few days ago, when he first met Wang Miao, Chengen was very enthusiastic, but now that the money was delivered to him, he didn't even want it.
That only proves that Chengen knows something.
And he is Wang Miao's confidant, and he has a lot of things going on. If Wang Miao falls and is investigated, he will definitely not end well.
At the moment, although Wang Gongyi was frightened, he tried to stay calm.
He found a way out for himself.
He ordered people to carry wooden boxes filled with gold and silver, put them on the carriage, and then went directly to the prefect's Yamen in Kunming. He obtained a general document in Wang Miao's name and left the city alone...
Husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest, and they fly apart when disaster strikes. Even when husband and wife face changes, it is difficult to withstand the test. Wang Gongyi is just a wage earner, and of course he cannot go to destruction with his boss...
After he left the city, he headed towards Annan...
The household registration policy there is still a bit confusing. I went to Annan and relied on the money in the carriage to buy a family property...
But Wang Gongyi didn't know that there were many tigers and leopards in the deep mountains. How could he enter Annan unharmed when he was alone and carrying so much gold and silver in his car...
