Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 987
Chapter 987 Not very clean
In today’s civil service circles, the hierarchy is strict. Whether you are a student or a junior, you can’t have any disagreement with your teachers and elders. If you harm your teachers and elders, even if you gain power for a while, you will not be able to get along in the circle. down.
Not only that, even if it is your own boss, you can’t report him, or even if you pull the boss off the horse, no one will dare to use you in the future.
But this set of things only applies to the outer court, not the inner court. These eunuchs in the palace will not be bound by the moral standards of the outside world. Their world is so big. What’s more, people outside the palace can’t control the affairs of the inner court, and the power of the **** of the inner court is so great and so tempting, so the godfathers and adopted sons in the palace kill each other, and the intrigue between the superiors and subordinates is normal. , after all, there is only one eunuch, the eunuch, and there are too many people in the palace.
Xiao Huai had obtained evidence that could lead to Xiao Zheng’s death a few months ago, but not only did he not report his godfather, but instead spent a few months helping Xiao Zheng to erase the traces left by this incident. , want to completely bury this thing in the ground.
I have to say, this is extremely rare.
Even after being a **** for more than ten years, he was shocked when he saw Xiao Zheng, who didn’t know how many wind and rain he had experienced. He stood silent for a long time, then glanced at Xiao Huai and sighed heavily.
“You… have a heart.”
Xiao Huai bowed his head respectfully: “When my son was in the palace, he was a coward who was bullied by others, not a godfather. Most of the sons are still washing clothes at the Shangyi Prison. People teach their sons to be gracious.”
“This is what a son should do.”
Xiao Zheng patted Xiao Huai on the shoulder and let out a long breath.
“This matter, whether you have selfishness or not, is a favor to me in the end, and I keep it in my heart.”
The power field is the most cruel, and it is the most difficult thing to be able to keep a little bit of conscience in it. Xiao Huai’s actions still make Xiao Zheng quite grateful.
Of course, if you look closely, it’s hard to say whether Xiao Huai is selfish or not.
Because he is not the only young guard in the inner guard!
The inner guard also has another young guard who is older than him. If Xiao Zheng is overthrown, but he does not climb to that position, it will only be worth the loss in the end.
Of course, it is the most important thing to speculate on others with evil thoughts. Only he knows what Xiao Huai is thinking, but he really did a good thing for Xiao Zheng.
Xiao Huai walked behind Xiao Zheng and lowered his head slightly.
“Godfather, according to the information collected by Mei Huawei, Mrs. Li is probably… coming towards the capital.”
“If Mrs. Li enters the capital, shall we arrest him according to His Majesty’s wishes?”
Xiao Zheng shook his head: “Your Majesty’s heart is to invite the Marquis of Jing’an to come to the capital. If he is willing to take the initiative to come to the capital, it is a matter between their masters and their apprentices, and it has nothing to do with us slaves.”
“When the time comes, just inform Your Majesty.”
…………
In June of the fifth year of Yuan Zhao, the weather was hot.
In the capital, there is only some shade under the big tree in Liushufang. The big families in Mingdefang, Yonglefang, have asked their servants to open an ice cellar and use ice to cool down.
It is worth mentioning that, because of Li Xin’s arrival, in the past ten years, there has been a lot of food in the capital, such as the kebabs made by Li Xin in the early years, and the iced food in summer, etc. Many people were hawking along the street.
In the scorching sun, a middle-aged man in blue clothes, who looked to be in his early thirties, was alone, with a fan in his hand, and was walking lazily on Victory Street.
He was wearing a very ordinary cloth, and his appearance was not very outstanding. There was no problem with his body and his body. The soldiers in the capital did not recognize who he was, so he wandered into Yonglefang. , came to the back door of Chen Guogong’s mansion.
He stretched out his hand and knocked on the door. The back door of the Guogong’s mansion opened quickly, and the doorman at the back door naturally recognized him. After seeing him, his expression changed, and he said, “Li…”
“Master Li, why are you here?”
This middle-aged man was naturally Li Xin, who came to the capital secretly. He deliberately did not fix his beard, and he wore ordinary clothes. In the capital, no one was found.
But it doesn’t matter if he is discovered. He entered the capital to be discovered by the court.
Li Xin smiled: “I’ve been staying in the south for a long time, so naturally I have to come back to the capital. Is Ye Mao at home?”
“At home at home.”
The concierge nodded quickly and said, “Master has been in the study for the past few days, and the villain will lead the way for Master Li.”
“There is work.”
Li Xin was familiar with Chen Guogong’s mansion. Most of the old people in the Guogong mansion knew him. It didn’t take long for him to come to the backyard of Ye’s house. Before reaching the door of Ye Mao’s study, Ye Mao, who was also dressed in coarse clothes, was anxious. Chongchong ran out, and when he saw that it was really Li Xin, the black-faced man widened his eyes and swallowed.
“Uncle Li…why are you here?”
In Ye Mao’s opinion, his uncle has completely betrayed the imperial court. Even if he returns to Beijing in the future, he should enter the capital, rather than suddenly appearing in the capital at this time.
Ye Mao even made plans to never see each other for the rest of his life.
The reunion at this time made Chen Guogong, who was in a very bad mood, refreshed.
Li Xin patted Ye Mao on the shoulder and said with a smile: “Master Ye asked me to help him take care of the Ye family. I heard that the Ye family was in trouble in the south, so I went to the capital to have a look. .”
“It’s not like my Ye family is in trouble…”
Ye Mao shook his head and smiled wryly.
“Yes…that’s all.”
He took two steps back and bowed deeply to Li Xin.
“Uncle Master can make this trip for the Ye family, Ye Mao is very grateful.”
Li Xin glanced at the big man with a half-smile, and laughed: “What do you believe, no wonder people are forced to this point!”
Ye Mao reached out and scratched his head.
“Don’t ask me to come in and take a seat? I’m afraid I won’t be able to sit in a while.”
Emperor Ye Guogong woke up like a dream, and immediately made way out of the way, and bent slightly towards Li Xin: “Master, please.”
“At this time, it’s not easy for you to still recognize me as an uncle.”
Li Xin shook his head and smiled: “But don’t call in front of people, it will affect the Ye family.”
“Speaking of which, the Ye family fell into this predicament and was still implicated by me.”
Ye Mao shook his head.
“Uncle Shi will help the Ye family more.”
The two entered the Ye family’s study together. After sitting down, Ye Mao personally poured a cup of tea for Li Xin. After Li Xin finished drinking the tea, he asked about the current situation of the Zhenbei Army.
Although he had heard a lot of news in the Anbu of Jizhou, compared to the Ye family who actually controlled the Zhenbei Army, the accuracy of the information was still far worse.
After Li Xin asked a few simple questions, he nodded and said, “So it’s not a problem for the Zhenbei Army to support for a few more months.”
“It’s been very difficult to defend.”
Ye Guogong frowned and said, “If Fourth Uncle and I were in Jizhou, it wouldn’t be a problem to stay until the end of the year, but I’m not sure how long we can stay now.”
“Court reinforcements…”
Li Xin only said four words. Just as he was about to continue speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the study.
“Master, someone is coming from the palace!”
Ye Mao’s complexion changed slightly, while Li Xin’s expression did not change.
“It’s coming so soon.”
He put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced at Ye Mao with a smile.
“It seems that your house is not very clean.”
