Zhu Youxiao frowned and said, "Cao Dazhong, forget it, I came here this time but asked Yang Feng for advice. It's not good for you to say this!"

"Uh...yes!" Even though Cao Dazhong was dissatisfied, he would not dare to be angry with his master. He could only lower his head and retreat to the side.

After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking of Cao Dazhong, he walked up to Yang Feng again and asked with a hint of pleading, "Yang Feng, are you really unwilling to tell me? I really want to know."

Faced with Zhu Youxiao’s question, Yang Feng did not answer. This was not because he was proud, but because he was thinking about something and was tracing his mind.

In fact, when he was confronting those men with brocade robes just now, Yang Feng noticed something was wrong, because the attitude of these people was a bit abnormal. If ordinary people were surrounded by a group of sergeants with steel swords and a large group of military households, no matter who he was, they would have been scared. But these men in brocade robes were not afraid, but instead took out scimitars that knew they were good at work and prepared to resist. Moreover, their tough appearance was definitely not those soldiers who only knew to bully the common people. If this was not obvious, Yang Feng would have been in vain for these years.

"Hey...I'm talking to you, haven't you heard it?" Zhu Youxiao didn't get a response from Yang Feng twice in a row. Even if he was generous, he was a little angry.

"Oh... I heard it." Yang Feng, who came to his senses, looked at the handsome young man in front of him carefully, then looked at Cao Dazhong, who was standing behind him with a hint of unconcealed panic on his face, and slowly thought of something in his heart.

"Hiss...No, can't I be so lucky?"

Thinking of this, Yang Feng couldn't help but gasp, and the look at Zhu Youjian was filled with a hint of shock.

"Mr. Yang, let's talk!"

Seeing Yang Feng's face changing several times in an instant, Cao Dazhong thought it was not good at first sight, so he quickly stepped forward and grabbed Yang Feng's arm and walked towards a secluded place not far away. When they reached the secluded place, Cao Dazhong then asked solemnly: "Mr. Yang, I believe you should have seen some things?"

"I saw some." Yang Feng nodded: "Mr. Cao, please tell me the truth about Yang if that young man is the current emperor."

Cao Dazhong looked sad: "Since you can see that, we don't have to hide it from you. That one is the current priest. You also know that today's priest prefers carpenters and some tricks. Since he got the music box you presented last time, he has been unable to let go of it. He even put it beside the bed when he sleeps. But somehow the music box seemed to be broken a few days ago. Your Majesty was so anxious that he couldn't eat it. Originally, Eunuch Wei planned to recruit you into the capital to repair the music box for Your Majesty, but Your Majesty couldn't wait, so he brought the guards from the capital to Nanjing in person."

"It's OK?" Yang Feng widened his eyes in disbelief: "If Your Majesty is not in the capital, how can you preside over the morning? Are all the officials in the court all fools?"

Cao Dazhong smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty has been in the throne for five years, and the number of morning courts has been very few. The general government affairs are submitted to the Chief Minister of the Cabinet, and then submitted to the Lijian. After Eunuch Wei's review, he will report to Your Majesty. This has been the case for several years. Therefore, even if Your Majesty is not in the capital for ten days and half a month, no one will pay attention. Besides, there is a nine thousand-year-old person who dares to talk too much after eating the leopard."

"Hey..." Yang Feng shook his head helplessly and stopped talking. The routine here was too deep, and it was not something he, a small fifth-rank thousand household, could care about. Thinking of this, he asked Cao Dazhong very simply: "Eunuch Cao, what is the official needs to do, just say it."

Cao Dazhong looked at Yang Feng with appreciation, and it was convenient to talk to smart people. He whispered: "No matter what your Majesty asks you later, just answer truthfully. If he wants you to repair the music box, you can repair it. If he wants to see the materials for the water truck, you can show him. As long as you can serve Your Majesty comfortably, it is a great achievement. There is another thing that we forgot to tell you. The word "agent" before your official position has been removed. In a few days, the official documents appointed by the court as Qianhu will be issued. From now on, you will be a serious Ming military position. I just don't know whether this is good or bad for you."

Yang Feng naturally knew what Cao Dazhong meant. In the more than two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the concept of civil and noble martial arts was long-standing. With the acquiescence of emperors of all dynasties, civil officials used various means to suppress military officers, both spiritually and materially, so that a second-rank general was unable to become tough when he saw a fourth-rank guard. Even Qi Jiguang, a famous general who defeated the Japanese pirates, had to start with the words "loose dog under the door" at the beginning when writing a letter to Zhang Juzheng. How sad it is.

Faced with Cao Dazhong's regretful expression, Yang Feng did not speak, but just smiled faintly. He didn't care too much about dealing with Cao Dazhong, a guy who came out of the palace. Although Cao Dazhong said so nicely now, Yang Feng knew at the time when he was a civil servant, he, a person who was not even a scholar, was simply a fool to squeeze into the civil servant system, let alone get a position of a fifth-rank thousand household.

If it were a civil servant, even if he had been studying hard for ten years and then the title of the Golden List, he would not even think about it if he wanted to get into a fifth-rank official position without ten or eight years of hardship. This would be contrary to his plan to make money.

He quietly spread the topic, "Thank you for your support from Eunuch Cao. The lower official is just a overseas citizen. If you can't stand the praise from your father-in-law, let's invite His Majesty to the Qianhu House for a rest for a night before talking about him."

"Yes..." Cao Dazhong said quickly: "Let's serve His Majesty first."

After the two of them discussed, Yang Feng turned around and walked among the crowd and shouted: "Okay, it's all a misunderstanding, everyone put away their weapons."

Then Yang Feng walked to Zhu Youxiao and smiled and said, "This young master has offended me so much. If you don't dislike me, please move to Qianhuyuan and drink a few glasses of wine. I will tell you what you want to inquire about. I wonder what you think?"

"oh?"

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao glanced at Cao Dazhong's face thoughtfully, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Okay! Let's settle in your Thousand Household Institute."

"You...Young Master... You must not." When the man in the brocade robe heard this, he immediately stopped him without thinking.

"Um!"

Zhu Youjian glared at him unhappily, "Tian Ergeng, are you trying to stop me?"
