At the same time, news about Zhou Bi'an causing trouble in the Jinyiwei commander's residence and going to Zhang's residence to cause trouble and meeting the princess spread rapidly in the capital.
If it was just an affair between Luo Yangxing and Zhou Bian, many civil and military officials in the capital, as well as those royal relatives and nobles, would at most just be watching the fun and just seeing the joke.
However, when this matter also involved that person with a strange origin, everyone's attention was diverted.
"That man has always been with the princess. Are you sure you read that correctly?"
"The person under him is Li Ruolian, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Do you want to know who is more important, the one who listens to that person or the princess?"
"What, Prince Erbiao from the palace is also with you, and he listens to that person and does whatever he asks you to do?"
"..."
Since the meeting in the Wenhua Palace, these people have been inquiring for news. Just because Zhang Mingwei went to sleep after leaving the palace and had no activities, they had no news.
However, as soon as Zhang Mingwei appeared after a full sleep, relevant information was immediately discovered by interested people. After the news was confirmed one after another, it shocked the powerful people in Beijing.
Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and the princess all revolve around such a person, and the emperor also gave him a python suit. What is the origin of this?
Some people speculate that Zhang Mingwei may be the candidate for the consort. Otherwise, it would be very abnormal for Princess Kunxing, who is under the age of hairpin, to appear next to a strange young man. It’s hard to explain!
But more people disagreed with this view. If it were the consort, the scene in the Wenhua Palace the day before yesterday would never have happened. The emperor called him "Sir" and asked questions when he was in trouble.
Zhang Mingwei's identity still confused them all. But they understand one thing. At least from the current perspective, this strange person definitely has a bright future.
After reaching this conclusion, many people have thoughts of currying favor. Almost instantly, they made the same decision.
………………
In the Zhang Mansion, after Zhang Mingwei left, Wang Erbiao and others naturally returned to the Zhang Mansion.
Liu Jin, Lan Tianbao and other people who had just entered Zhang Mansion were all shocked. It was only then that they came back to their senses.
So, Liu Jin couldn't help but ask: "Isn't that person the master's maid? Why...why is she Princess Kunxing again?"
After hearing this, Lan Tianbao also said with a puzzled look on his face: "Do they look alike, misunderstood? How come there is a princess by my side? This makes no sense!"
When Lan Dibao heard this, he immediately echoed his brother's words: "It must be a misunderstanding!"
Wang Erbiao, who was walking in front, couldn't stand hearing what these bumpkins said.
In the past, he maintained his identity and was too lazy to deal with these people. After returning to Zhang Mansion, it was his subordinates who had to worry about the arrangements of these people. But not long after, after hearing that Zhang Mingwei was having trouble outside, they rushed out together.
At this point, he felt the need to say something. Then he stopped, turned around, glanced at them, and said with a straight face: "Don't pretend to understand if you don't understand! Sir, he accepted you with kindness, and you will work hard from now on. Don't say things that you shouldn't say, and don't worry about them. Don't worry about your own affairs, just do your own thing. Do you remember what we said?"
Originally this was a serious matter, but who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, these people all showed incredulous expressions and blurted out in unison: "Our family?"
"Are you a eunuch?"
"..."
The serious atmosphere was gone. When Wang Erbiao saw this, he wanted to be angry, but for a moment, he didn't know where to get angry!
These ignorant idiots actually call themselves eunuchs! There are only a few people in the palace who have become eunuchs, but I really want to be one!
Fei Zhen'e and her companions who were walking in front heard the noise, turned their heads and looked over, covering their mouths and laughing. Afterwards, it was Fei Zhen'e who introduced with a smile: "This is the Eunuch Wang Erbiao. I have been ordered to come here temporarily to listen to the master's orders. I am the maid of Her Royal Highness Princess Kunxing, and now I am here with the princess at the Zhang Mansion. , serve the master.”
Hearing this, Lan Tianbao and others were once again stunned and dumbfounded!
If Liu Jin is limited to hearing about official affairs, Lan Tianbao has read a lot. However, he has never seen such a record in the past dynasties, where the princess and the eunuchs in the palace came to serve outsiders outside the palace?
When Wang Erbiao saw how stupid they were, he felt angry and shouted coldly: "Why are you so stunned? I really need to teach you the rules!"
After being trained like this by him, several people finally came to their senses. Suddenly, they felt a little panicked. I feel like the master’s background is too great. Will I be kicked out if I don’t do well?
For them, they definitely cherish this opportunity. If Zhang Mingwei hadn't taken them in, they would have ended up in a tragic situation where their family was destroyed.
At the same time, they were looking forward to it very much. Because the greater the background of their master, the brighter their future prospects will be.
So, they immediately responded in unison.
"We must do our part."
"What are the rules? Please make it clear, father-in-law!"
"Yes, what if we don't know what we did wrong? Please let me know clearly!"
"..."
The attitude is sincere and respectful. Even Lan Tianbao is no exception to this point.
After all, the reason why he used to scold Wang Erbiao for being a bully was because of his despair for the imperial examination and for high-ranking officials, which led to his cynical behavior. But now there is a glorious road in front of him. Not only can his family live a good life, but he will also be able to stand out and repay his benefactor. As long as he is a normal person, he will definitely cherish such a good opportunity!
Their attitude made Wang Erbiao feel a little better, and he immediately coughed, and when he was about to speak, he heard Fei Zhen'e speak first and remind him: "Eunuch Wang, this is the Zhang Mansion, let's wait until the master comes back to tell us! "
When Wang Erbiao heard this, he immediately remembered what happened yesterday, and his heart suddenly shivered. Don't violate your husband's taboo! However, when he saw Lan Tianbao and others showing a trace of doubt, he felt that his majesty had been challenged again, so he began to say: "I will teach you basic etiquette first, and take off your country folk clothes." That’s tacky. When Sir arrives, he will clearly explain the rules of the house!”
Although his words were a bit rude, not even Lan Tianbao showed any dissatisfaction and everyone listened attentively.
Fei Zhen'e stopped talking when she saw him. Basic etiquette should be fine. She and her companions looked at each other and then returned to the inner courtyard.
But before Wang Erbiao said much, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps. Looking up, he saw two people coming in a hurry. One of them is his subordinate who acts as the concierge, and the other one is his godfather's subordinate who is responsible for checking out the shops under Wang De's pseudonym. He is at the same level as him, named Liu Qiwei.
So, he left Lan Tianbao and others behind, walked towards him with a smile and asked, "Eunuch Liu, have all the goods in Mr.'s shops been inventoried?"
After finishing speaking, Wang Erbiao's expression changed again, and he shouted to his men: "What are you doing here? You don't need to guard the door anymore?"
Although he and Liu Qiwei are in the same group, they also have competition and their relationship is a bit subtle. Therefore, he didn't want Liu Qiwei to see anything wrong on his side.
"No...it's not!" When the concierge heard this, he was shocked and quickly pointed to the outside and explained: "There are many people outside, and I can't make the decision!"
"Huh?" Wang Erbiao was shocked when he saw it, "Could it be that Zhou Bian who left and came back?"
Of course he knew Zhou Bian's virtue in the capital. Without the princess to suppress him, maybe he would actually do this!
Hearing his question, Liu Qiwei smiled and answered: "You think too much, you are all here to give gifts to Mr. to please him!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Erbiao breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, he had the highest status in the Zhang Mansion, and he came to the Zhang Mansion on an order to help. Since Zhang Mingwei and Princess Kunxing were not here, it was his turn to make the decision on this matter.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Erbiao immediately thought of Wang Dehua's gift list, so he had an idea in his mind and said, "Just say that sir is not here!"
He felt that this gift should not be accepted, but when he looked back and thought about it, the emperor had given his husband so many things. If those people wanted to give him things, they shouldn't be the same as Wang Dehua, right?
Thinking like this, he finally couldn't make the decision, so he could only let Zhang Mingwei make the decision.
"I already said so!" His men quickly replied after hearing this, "But they put everything at the door of the house and then left!"
The news of Zhang Mingwei's entry into the palace was announced in front of so many people, so many people knew about it.
When Wang Erbiao heard this, he frowned immediately. Then he looked at Liu Qiwei and said, "Sir, please give me your things!"
"This is what my godfather told me. I must hand it over to my husband personally." Liu Qiwei refused and explained with a smile, "It's okay. Let's wait for now."
After Wang Erbiao heard this, he felt like everything was not going as he wanted. He was a little depressed, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him and walked out of the house.
As soon as the others saw him, they quickly followed him.
When we arrived at the door of the house, we saw that the place was piled with gifts. It was so dazzling that there seemed to be everything. Each gift comes with a greeting note.
Wang Erbiao casually picked up a few copies and flipped through them. They were all words about a certain official congratulating Brother Zhang on his move to a new house and offering such-and-such gifts, which was not a sign of respect. Among them, those who give money directly are the most popular. After all, this is hard currency, and in this world, it is the most popular.
In just a short while, people came over to give gifts one after another. As a last resort, Wang Erbiao took Lan Tianbao and several others to get busy. Even later, even Liu Qiwei had to start helping.

At this time, in the palace, Zhu Aona had already told them everything that happened after they left.
