==Chapter 12 Past Events==

Xiao Yu leaned back, put down his pen, and said calmly: "How is the investigation of the person I asked you to investigate?"

Lu Ze took a step forward and touched the tip of his nose: "Wei Chen seems to be really...he came at the wrong time."

Eunuch Sheng shook the corners of his mouth and couldn't help cursing: "Little Marquis, if you still know that it's not the right time, you should leave."

Chunnan Hou Lu Ze, the current commander of the Jinyi Guards, was His Majesty's companion when he was a boy, his confidant during the Qianlong period, and now he is a close official of the Emperor with his eyes outside the palace.

It's just too close.

Xiao Yu said: "Tell me."

Lu Ze said slowly: "This matter is a long story."

When he heard this, Eunuch Sheng rolled his eyes.

If you don't say that this person is extremely hypocritical and "it's a long story," he will obviously have to spend another night in the Yangxin Palace.

Eunuch Sheng sighed and retreated.

Xiao Yu said: "Sit down."

Lu Ze saluted, but the words "Thank you, Your Majesty" have not yet been uttered.

Just listen to Xiao Yu say: "Lu Yanqing, the courtesy is waived."

After sitting down, Lu Ze said: "Your Majesty's information is absolutely correct. As soon as the draft was over, the Ministry of Household Affairs allocated money to the Ministry of Works. It's just that He Chengmao was happy, but the Mu family couldn't laugh anymore."

The reason why the Mu family can't laugh is simple.

The He and Mu families are family friends and have been colluding for many years. During this election, both families sent people to the palace, but the emperor only wanted He Yuru and not Mu Wanqi.

Everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is provocation, but what if the facts prove that it is provocation?

The older the method, the better it works.

Xiao Yu put his fist to his lips, coughed a few times, and said: "The silver coins sent to Tongji Canal will be escorted by you personally."

"I accept the order." Lu Ze added: "As your Majesty ordered previously, I released the news that Your Majesty favors Qin Beauty. Now everyone outside the palace is inquiring about this Qin Beauty. Zhuang Sheng has already Sold for hundreds of thousands of taels."

Xiao Yu said indifferently: "Where is Qin Wang? Is there any action?"

Lu Ze hesitated for a moment and said: "According to the information I got, although Qin Wang is a bit ridiculous in the back house, his political achievements are pure, and Qin Mei is indeed his biological child, not... Intentionally inserted, these two documents are about Qin Wang's life and performance evaluation. One was presented to His Majesty by Zhuang Sheng, and the other was obtained by the minister from the Ministry of Personnel."

The manuscript records Qin Wang's life preferences, trivial matters in the back house, and his performance as an official from Qian'an to the capital.

The son of a poor family, he became an official in the imperial examination, he was honest and honest, and he was regarded as a good official by the people of Qian'an.

After Xiao Yu looked at it, he raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow, and said, "Then Beauty Qin, did Zhuang Sheng say anything?"

Lu Ze remembered the day he went to Qingfeng Tower.

He asked Zhuang Sheng about Qin Meiren's news, but Zhuang Sheng inexplicably told many of Qin Meiren's grievances from childhood to adulthood.

So he asked Zhuang Sheng if there was anything suspicious about Beauty Qin before entering the palace.

Zhuang Sheng faced the red mark on half of his neck and said resolutely: "No."

Lu Ze suspected that Zhuang Sheng had drunk too much, but without evidence, he could only tell the truth: "Zhuang Sheng said that before Qin Meiren entered the palace, her life was miserable. Her biological mother was angry to death by her aunt at home, but her father I don’t know people well, I only have the second girl in my house in my heart, so I have no choice but to enter the palace.”

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Is it a last resort?"

On that day, how could there be any look of compulsion in her eyes?

If it is not voluntary, how can one invite the palace minister to his home?

Lu Ze noticed the gaffe and immediately said: "It's not out of necessity, it's..."

Xiao Yu said: "How else can I touch her? If you have anything to say, just say it."

Lu Ze thought about it for a long time and then said: "Qin Taishi wanted to straighten the aunt at home and send the second girl of Qin to the palace. Beauty Qin was really angry, so she found Chen Siji and learned the palace etiquette... But after hearing that Miss Qin entered the palace, Qin Wangfan suddenly came to his senses and sent his aunt away."

Xiao Yu had no intention of continuing to listen to the affairs of the Qin Mansion. He turned the white jade finger on his hand and said, "The prescription prescribed by Dr. Liao from Sichuan last month is useless. Let's continue looking."

When mentioning the miracle doctor, Lu Ze's expression darkened and he said: "Your Majesty, I dare to say something today, the eldest prince's illness cannot be urgent, but some things are urgent. Now let alone the court, even the people of the world are watching. As the head of the harem and the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the heirs are the foundation of the country. I hope your majesty will think twice."

Lu Ze's words were subtle, but the meaning behind them was obvious.

The eldest prince has not spoken for three years and is destined to miss the chance to be crown prince. Your Majesty had better make plans in advance.

Xiao Yu did not refute Lu Ze, but simply said: "No rush, just wait."

Lu Ze clenched his fist.

He wanted to say that there is no resurrection after death. It has been three years, so don’t wait any longer.

He also wanted to say, how can a prince whose mother's family is treasonous and speechless use to establish his authority in the court in the future? If you want the eldest prince to have a stable life, you should ask him to be an idle prince.

If you don’t want a daughter from an aristocratic family, then you have to get one of Xu Shuyi and Qin Meiren.

However, there is a difference between king and minister, and he cannot say these words.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Eunuch Sheng pushed in the door and placed two bowls of ginseng soup on a long table of nanmu inlaid with bamboo and dragon patterns. He said with a smile: "It's late at night. Your Majesty, why don't you take a break and have a bowl of ginseng soup?" Tang will discuss matters with Commander Lu again."

"Commander Lu, please use it too." Eunuch Sheng said calmly.

Commander Lu.

Lu Ze could hear the gnashing of teeth.

He calmed down, tilted his head and smiled at Eunuch Sheng, "Eunuch, are you so fed up with me?"

Lu Zesheng was fair and handsome, with such a smile, and his eyes were like peach blossoms, which made Eunuch Sheng unbearable.

Xiao Yu raised his eyes to look at Eunuch Sheng.

Eunuch Sheng was already old. He didn’t expect that this man would be so shameless as to complain in front of the saint. He could only smile at him and say, “What are you talking about? The commander is really joking. ."

Lu Ze nodded and said, "Oh? Maybe I got it wrong. I hope my father-in-law doesn't blame me."

Eunuch Sheng laughed as hard as he cried, "How dare you, how dare you, I will quit now."

After Eunuch Sheng left, Lu Ze continued: "The first martial arts test next month..."

At dawn, Eunuch Sheng stood outside the Yangxin Hall and opened his mouth to yawn. The door opened with a bang, and Eunuch Sheng's yawn suddenly disappeared.

It was Lu Ze who came out.

Eunuch Sheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Thank you, Commander Lu, for your hard work."

Lu Zedao: "Spreading branches and leaves for the royal family is a top priority. How can I not have the hard work of my father-in-law."

Eunuch Sheng looked like he didn't know what to say.

I just said in my heart: You still know that spreading branches and leaves is a big deal! Then what kind of favor are you fighting for when you come here late at night?

Lu Ze put his hand on Eunuch Sheng's shoulder, smiled again, and leaned into his ear and said, "Let me tell you, if Eunuch-in-law wants to run his errands well, he must go and give a warning to the empresses in each palace."

Eunuch Sheng's eyes lit up, "Commander Lu, what do you mean by this?"

Lu Ze said in a very serious tone: "The essence of this fight for favor is the word initiative. How cold-tempered is our Majesty? The ground in the Forbidden City is frosty. If I hadn't been so cold If you take the initiative, can you keep your favor in the Nourishing Heart Palace?"

Eunuch Sheng nodded, but felt something was wrong and frowned again.

After a while, Eunuch Sheng said without hesitation: "Then...how to take the initiative? Our family can't take the wives of each palace to the Yangxin Palace."

Lu Zedao: "My father-in-law, you have to put some effort into this."

Eunuch Sheng was confused and couldn't help but said: "Where should our family put our efforts?"

Lu Ze smiled again and said: "I can't see the empresses in this palace matter, so I can't help much, but..."

Sheng Gonggong said positively: "But what?"

Lu Zedao: "There are many guards in Jinyi tonight. There are two cases waiting for me to handle. I won't come to Yangxin Hall tonight. Father-in-law, seize the opportunity."

After saying that, Lu Ze turned and left.

"Hey——" Eunuch Sheng looked at his back, took a breath, and muttered: "Master Marquis, you are really humiliating yourself by joining the Jinyi Guards."

The sun was shining brightly, and Eunuch Sheng was wandering around in the imperial garden. His mind was filled with what Commander Lu said. Not to mention, the more he thought about it, the more it made sense. No wonder he had been favored for three years.

Work harder...

Eunuch Sheng raised his chin and looked at the entire harem.

Concubine Xue of Xianfu Palace, Concubine Li of Changchun Palace, and Concubine Liu of Yikun Palace could not do this.

He Shuyi, whose surname is He, who is new to the palace, is probably not going to make it either.

Then only Xu Shuyi and Qin Meiren are left.

Eunuch Sheng first went to Yilanxuan in Zhongcui Palace.

After meeting Xu Shuyi, Eunuch Sheng couldn't help but sigh. She was indeed the daughter of Xu Bowei, the imperial censor of Zuodu. She had a dignified figure and was not impatient when looking at her. She was a person who could carry things clearly. However, if compared to the previous empress, she was still a little inferior.

Thinking of the late Queen, Eunuch Sheng couldn't help but sigh.

She was generous and kind, and treated each of them very well. She even remembered his preferences as a eunuch.

Eunuch Sheng glanced at the sundial in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Thinking of three years ago.

At that time, there was often laughter in Kunning Palace, and the ground in the Forbidden City had not yet become frosty.

The Queen often conjures a jade pendant out of nowhere and says, "This is the landscape jade pendant that my brother just brought. Could it be that Eunuch Sheng has clairvoyance?"

The scene suddenly changed, and he heard the Queen say again: "Father-in-law, please let me in. I must see Your Majesty today."

Mr. Sheng closed his eyes and walked towards Shuyu Garden.

The deep palace is secluded, the breeze blows, and the yellow leaves fall from the branches.

The female eunuchs are still sweeping the floor.

Eunuch Sheng came here under the banner of Shangyi Bureau.

Eunuch Sheng asked the little **** behind him to bring this year's furs into the courtyard.

Qin Juan hurriedly walked out and said, "How can I trouble my father-in-law to come here in person for these things?"

She guessed that someone from the Shangyi Bureau would come today, but she didn't expect that Mr. Sheng would come.

Eunuch Sheng looked at the person in front of him, still feeling a little dazed.

But after thinking about the reason for coming here, he said: "If this Shuyu Garden lacks anything, the beauty and the servant will say it."

Qin Juan naturally knew that these were just polite words, so she said softly: "Shuyu Garden is lacking in everything, thank you for your trouble."

Eunuch Sheng was really not used to this face being so polite to him, so he couldn't help but glance towards the sky and said, "The ninth day of next month is the Wanshou Festival. I hope, I hope the beauty will make plans early."

When Qin Juan heard this, she still didn't understand anything.

The advice of the eunuchs around the emperor is more important than anything else in this harem.

Qin Juan took out a jade pendant that had been prepared for a long time from her sleeve and put it in Eunuch Sheng's hand, "Thank you, Eunuch, for the suggestion."

At this moment, Eunuch Sheng felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Eunuch Sheng looked at the landscape on the jade pendant and asked, "Beauty, where did the landscape jade pendant come from?"

In fact, when the **** sat in Eunuch Sheng's position, he had already seen everything.

He has no shortage of delicacies, gold, silver and jewels.

It’s just that the courtesy in this palace is all about favors. He will accept those he wants to make friends with, and reject those he doesn’t want to make friends with.

After blowing the wind on her cheek, Qin Juan pretended to be embarrassed and said: "My brother in the family is doing business abroad, and he gave these to me."

Eunuch Sheng nodded as if he suddenly understood, put it in his arms and said, "Then I will thank the beauty."

Qin Chan said: "You are so polite, father-in-law."

Eunuch Sheng walked out of Shuyu Garden, and the young **** said at the side: "Eunuch, please ask me to go and give instructions to Shang Bedroom..."

Sheng Gongzheng said: "No, don't do anything."

The little **** said: "I understand."

As evening approached, Eunuch Sheng walked into the Nourishing Heart Hall with a smile and a name tag.

Xiao Yu couldn't help but frown when he saw his expression.

Eunuch Sheng seemed humble, but in fact he put the name tag in front of the emperor's eyes arrogantly and said with a smile: "Since Commander Lu can't come tonight, your majesty might as well take a look."

The sharpness between the emperor's brows made Eunuch Sheng's heart beat fast.

Xiao Yu lowered his head to look at the nameplate, and for a moment, suddenly sneered, "Sheng Kanghai, how much of a gift did you receive from Beauty Qin?"

There are six name tags on a painted plate, and only a red string is tied to Qin Meiren.

Eunuch Sheng bent his knees and knelt on the ground, "This slave is guilty."

The sky suddenly darkened a bit, and rain started to fall. It was quiet all around, and the water drops on the window were dripping down drop by drop.

Just listen to Xiao Yu holding the mutton-fat white jade landscape jade pendant and saying word by word: "Is this given by Qin Meiren?"
