Chapter 133: Pretend to be deaf and dumb

"Have you had enough fun? Are you willing to come back?" Concubine Zhou had a stern face.

"I...I..." Zhu Qizhen walked back and forth, and this time he came to Changning Palace where Concubine Zhou lived. He thought of Concubine Wan Chen. If it weren't for not wanting to mention King Lide again, why would he have come here?

"Mother..." Jianshen approached Concubine Zhou gently, "The father is here, you should treat him well and don't be angry with him.

"I can't do it..." said Concubine Zhou.

"I change my clothes and leave!" Zhu Qizhen said. Jianshen had no choice but to see his mother not like her father.

"Boy, you're so ok!" Zhu Qizhen said, "Why don't you go back to the East Palace with Zhen'er!"

Jianshen suddenly realized that when he came out, he saw Zhong Ying smiling at him: "Auntie just said you were stupid... and you still have to stay with the imperial concubine."

"Where is Zhen'er?"

"Report to the prince, she left first, she said she wanted to leave the palace to do something." Niu Yu said.

"Why... go again?" Jianshen said, "My father asked him to return to the East Palace."

"She has a tough temper and can't tolerate sand in her eyes. She has gone to meddle in other people's business. She said that those people will not do their best to handle the case. The matters of Shenji Camp are big or small, but I'm afraid that someone will not only seek personal gain. If the firearm is left among the people, it will probably be dangerous. The emperor does not want to investigate, but the prince cannot be careless."

"Isn't this against my father?" Jianshen said.

"So what if you do it? Zhen'er's temper is like this... You don't know..." Niu Yu said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince should go back to the palace early. You must not delay your homework this day."

Seeing Shen was so disappointed that he walked back, he saw Cao Duoer standing at the intersection of Jiadao. He was his father's personal bodyguard. His father wanted to hide from the historian and often asked him to accompany him outside. The emperor's words and deeds must be recorded every day, but who has no privacy? Of course, he must be transferred to him when he slips out. Although the new recorder of the emperor's words and deeds is not high, he is serious.

"Cao Duoer..." Jianshen approached Cao Duoer, "Who is this?"

He was about thirty years old and should be the eye-catching type. His facial features were very distinct, tall and big, and he looked... Most of historians were old men. He would like to see them no matter how you look at them.

"The youngest one is Wan'an, the editor of the Hanlin Academy." The man said.

"This Bachelor Wan is a handsome talent." The prince said. Wan'an quickly knelt on the ground: "Thank you for the praise of the prince."

"Mr. Wan has a good temper and has a good reputation..." Duoer said, "I won't make things difficult for anyone."

"He also likes to help others..." The little eunuch next to him interrupted, "Crown Prince, he has been in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years, but unfortunately it's nothing..."

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm a Jinshi for thirteen years. What's wrong with working as an editor in the Hanlin Academy?"

"Did you get the Jinshi exam in your teens?" the prince said in surprise.

"That's not... I was already over twenty or thirty years old when I entered the government..." Wan'an said, "I just pay attention to my diet and look younger."

"This seems to make some sense, but I probably can't make the food in the palace myself." Jianshen said.

"If you have anything to eat with Your Highness, I can help you, and I will definitely help you." Wan'an said.

Cao Duoer smiled and said, "Bachelor Wan, you are so good at speaking."

"I'm just telling the truth. I like to help others, Shiwei Cao. Actually, I know the reason why you are with me, but I know the reason for being mediocre for more than ten years. I don't want to be so ignorant anymore."

"Hey, Duoer, have he been stimulated?" Jianshen asked.

"He, of course, not only has he not been promoted in recent years, but his woman... scolds him for being useless all day..." Duoer said.

"What is a waste?" Seeing this, he was puzzled, but he saw that Duo'er stopped talking, and the eunuchs also looked embarrassed.

Wan'an was even more embarrassed. His affairs with his wife were family affairs, but they seemed to have heard of them, but the prince was young and didn't know anything.

"Young man, I'll give you a visit to the prince!" Cao Duoer said, and he pulled everyone around him to kneel down.

The prince had to leave, and he didn't welcome him after seeing these officials.

"Master, I think those people are really hateful." Liang Fang, the young eunuch next to the prince, said. He is not old and can't speak clearly, but he was arranged by his father for him. He is said to be a child of an official family, and he was originally with Niu Yu.

"Why?" Jianshen said, "I'm here to make a living, so you can forget it."

"I heard that this guy is trying to please others everywhere, and he looks like a traitor." Liang Fang said.

"He is a Jinshi, and he was from the imperial examination. You are only a little older and you can't talk nonsense without evidence." The prince said, "After all, we cannot underestimate others. It's no harm for you to read more."

In the warehouse of Shenji Camp, the Jinyiwei arrived.

"This is a small case, you don't have to come over."

"Since there is a small hole, how can we not repair it?" said the visitor.

Locking people is very simple, but it is difficult to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Someone rushed here and commander Menda came with him.

"I was in charge of this matter. Commander Wan, are you fighting with me for me?" Menda said, "As far as I know, you have already taken leave now, why are you here again?"

"I am worried about the people below who are following me for personal gain..." Zhen'er said.

Menda looked at the circle of people around him and suddenly saw someone trembling there.

"Okay, that's this person..." He raised the crane in his hand, and the man's head actually fell to the ground. There was blood in the warehouse.

Everyone here was stunned. What's the matter? The commander of the Jinyiwei casually killed just one person and was finished?

"This person secretly stole the gunpowder from the Shenji Camp and was preparing to leave Beijing for profit..." Menda said, "I have investigated it clearly."

How could Zhen'er not understand? Menda wanted to turn a big thing into a small matter, so she only cared about another thing. That is who wants these gunpowder, these gunpowders are things from the Shenji Camp. Maybe someone is planning a conspiracy later on.

"My commander, my subordinates think there are some problems." Zhen'er said.

"You've thought about it again..."

"There is no gunpowder in Shenji Camp. If there are thieves attacking the city, wouldn't Shenji Camp make a mistake?" Zhen'er said, "If the gunpowder falls into the hands of the thieves, the thief sets fire in the city, and the capital will be in chaos..."

"Are you thinking too much?" Menda said.

"I didn't think too much, it was Yao..." Zhen'er suddenly remembered something, "Do you remember the person who bought gunpowder's wallet..."

"What?" Menda said, "I caught the owner, and he insisted that he was making profits. He asked again that there was no more, and the person was dead."

"He is a Yao native. In the early years of Jingtai, I went to see Chen Fu Nan back. I had contact with the Yao people with Yuan Bin with the army. It was a daily necessity for the Yao people from Guangxi, and the Han people did not use this pattern." Zhen'er said.

"I really didn't expect that, no wonder you spared no effort to help Yuan Bin..." Menda heard that he was interested, "How could those southern barbarians become climate? Perhaps the buyer had just been to Guangxi."

Guangxi has high mountains and long roads, and there has never been a stable place. It is a place where the chieftains are. Wherever the people are brave, they have always been a place that the court cannot control. Some of the eunuchs and maids in the palace are from prisoners, but these people are often the lowest-level hardworking workers in the palace, and among these people are also from Guangxi. The treatment of these sinners is naturally much worse than that of ordinary palace maids and eunuchs. How can the good families of officials compare with them? The palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are also divided into several levels.

"Wanzhen, do you want to investigate?" Menda said, "Hao Sheng, can you agree?"

"Do you have to wait until things develop to the point where they cannot be remedied?" Zhen'er turned and left.

"This person is really stupid! He can do thankless things and I can't do anything to seek death." Menda thought for a while but didn't say it. If things in Beijing were so serious, it would be impossible.
