Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

The subtle changes in Wei Zhongxian's attitude were keenly captured by Zhu Changxun. Although the questions he raised received responses from Wei Zhongxian, they were not the results Zhu Changxun wanted.

On the way back to the capital from Luoyang, Wei Zhongxian would try to satisfy whatever requests Zhu Changxun made. Even when he was traveling to Hejian Prefecture, and Zhu Changxun asked for fresh seafood, Wei Zhongxian would send people to Tianjin Sanwei. The fleet was parked in Hejian Mansion and stayed there for several days before setting off, in order not to make Zhu Changxun suspicious.

It was precisely this that made Zhu Changxun, who was suspicious by nature, dispel the vigilance and uneasiness in his heart. Perhaps the emperor summoned him to Beijing simply because he wanted to meet his uncle?

But now...

The uneasy and fearful thoughts arose in Zhu Changxun's heart again.

"Eunuch Wei..."

"Manufacturer!"

Just when Zhu Changxun wanted to say something to further verify what he was thinking, Li Yongzhen hurried over, his brows furrowed and his expression solemn.

Something happened?

Seeing this scene, Zhu Changxun felt even more uneasy.

"Prince Fu, please wait a moment. It may be the Emperor's order."

Seeing Zhu Changxun like this, Wei Zhongxian smiled and said to Zhu Changxun, then turned around and walked towards a certain place. Li Yongzhen saw this and hurriedly followed.

"What's got you in such a hurry?"

The smile on Wei Zhongxian's face disappeared, he frowned and looked at Li Yongzhen and whispered. While talking about this, Wei Zhongxian's eyes glanced at Zhu Changxun not far away.

"The prince is here."

Li Yongzhen whispered softly: "I came here with the emperor's will, but it seems that something big has happened in the capital and the capital recently."

"What big thing can happen."

Wei Zhongxian said nonchalantly: "What does the emperor's decree say?"

"Mr. Factory, you'd better go there."

Li Yongzhen hesitated for a moment, looked at Wei Zhongxian and said.

Ok?

Now Wei Zhongxian was alert.

"You comfort Prince Fu."

Wei Zhongxian thought for a moment, glanced at Li Yongzhen and ordered.

"Factory owner, don't worry."

Li Yongzhen nodded.

After receiving Li Yongzhen's response, Wei Zhongxian rolled up his sleeves, turned around and walked towards the deck. Zhu Changxun, who had been observing, saw Wei Zhongxian leaving in a hurry and couldn't stand at all.

"Wei Zhongxian!!"

"Blessed King Thousand Lives, please be patient and calm~"

Wei Zhongxian didn't pay any attention to the voice coming from behind him. He just wanted to see Wang Tigan as soon as possible. His intuition told him that something big was going on in the capital.

Otherwise, Li Yongzhen, who knew something, would never be like this.

As his right-hand man, Wei Zhongxian still knows what kind of character Li Yongzhen is.

"Factory Master!!"

Wang Tiqian, who was walking back and forth on the deck, saw Wei Zhongxian's figure and immediately walked quickly towards Wei Zhongxian.

"What happened?"

Seeing Wang Tigan acting like this, Wei Zhongxian frowned and said, "Where does the Emperor's will be to place Prince Fu?"

Even though Wang Tiqian was the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch responsible for the rituals, he was ranked first in the ranking of the inner court, but the real power in the inner court depended on who was in charge of the Dongjishi Factory.

After all, if you control the Dongjishi Factory, you can control the Jinyi Guards, and the factory guards are one.

No matter when it is, if you have military power, you will have more power to speak. This principle applies to any situation.

And Wei Zhongxian was the eunuch who served as the eunuch of the Bureau of Ceremonies and supervised the East Jishi Factory. This also destined Wei Zhongxian's status to be far beyond what Wang Tiqian could compare with.

This is why after Fang Zheng became the admiral of Xijishi Factory, his status and authority in the inner court were very transcendent. No matter how bad the factory was, he still had more people and more power. This was considered military power!

"When the Emperor learned that Prince Fu had come to Beijing, he ordered the factory owner to lead a team and invite Prince Fu's family to live temporarily in Nanyuan." Facing Wei Zhongxian's gaze, Wang Tiqian said truthfully.

"Not going to Beijing?"

Now Wei Zhongxian was surprised and suspicious.

"Not going to Beijing."

Wang Tigan nodded.

"What happened?"

Wei Zhongxian asked alertly.

"The situation started when the factory owner was ordered to leave Beijing..."

Seeing Wei Zhongxian like this, Wang Tiqian hesitated in his heart for a moment, but decided to tell the truth. After all what happened, his position in the inner court seemed to be very stable, but in fact it was very fragile. Wei Zhongxian was like a straw, making Wang Tiqian didn't dare to let go anymore.

Listening to Wang Ti's detailed account, Wei Zhongxian's face did not change, but his heart was filled with turmoil. He never thought that so many things would happen during his time away from Beijing.

Especially recently, under the rule of the capital city, there has been such a big fuss. Wei Zhongxian intuitively told Wei Zhongxian that what his emperor had done before had caused some people to jump over the wall.

If this were not the case, the capital and Gyeonggi would never be in such chaos!

"Our family said at the beginning that we want you to tell the truth about the matter in Huangzhuang to the Emperor!!"

I don't know how much time had passed. Wei Zhongxian's eyes were sharp, he stared at Wang Tigan and gritted his teeth and said: "Eunuch Wang, you are the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, don't you understand this point clearly?"

"Our family..."

Wang Tiqian didn't know what to say now.

At the beginning, he wanted to wait until the incident was about to happen before reporting it to the emperor, but he still had a trace of luck in his heart. After all, if this matter was revealed, how would he behave in the inner court from now on.

It is only natural to accept money from the filial piety of an adopted son and grandson, and use money to help others eliminate disasters. It is impossible to say that after taking the money, you should hide when something goes wrong.

The rules of the inner court are far more complicated than those of the outer court.

A group of eunuchs and eunuchs who dare to cut off their descendants, there is nothing they dare not do. If some rules are really broken, they can be made up for at any time if they are hated by others.

In the inner court, the most indispensable thing is time! !

A soft knife hurts the most! !

"Okay, Eunuch Wang, let's go back to the palace to do business." Seeing Wang Tiqian like this, Wei Zhongxian frowned and said, "Our family will immediately take people to escort Prince Fu and his family to Nanyuan."

"So what happened in the capital and the capital, Mr. Factory..." Wang Tiqian hesitated a little, looked at Wei Zhongxian and told him what he was thinking, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wei Zhongxian.

"My lord, this is not something you should worry about."

Wei Zhongxian said: "What you should worry about now is the inner court. The situation is so chaotic right now. Do you really intend to let the Imperial Guards Office take full responsibility for the safety of the emperor?"

Ok?

Now Wang Tiqian had doubts.

"Don't forget who we are."

Wei Zhongxian stretched out his hand and said: "We are the emperor's domestic slaves. After all, the people in the Royal Imperial Guards are foreign ministers. With such a big mess happening now, can you ensure that no one among these foreign ministers will have any ideas of the inner court? ?”

"What the factory owner means is..."

"Our family means nothing!"

Wei Zhongxian flatly rejected it.

"Your Majesty is well, then we can live a more comfortable life." Wei Zhongxian continued: "Our family still has things to do, and you can think of the rest. Before our family returns to the palace, if there is any commotion in the inner court, Then you and I can’t escape the blame!”

After saying this, Wei Zhongxian flicked his sleeves and hurriedly walked somewhere.

Looking at Wei Zhongxian's leaving figure, Wang Tigan seemed to have thought of something. At this moment, Wang Tigan's eyes changed. He glanced left and right, then turned and walked towards the bottom of the canal.

The more turbulent you are, the more likely anything will happen. This kind of lesson happens too many times, but few people actually learn it...
