The director of Dongchang, whose full name is the Imperial Envoy Governor and the administrative eunuch of Dongchang Official School.
Moreover, Cao Zhengchun also had a more powerful official position, that of the head of the Dongchang Si Ritual Supervisor, that is, the palm eunuch.
The current Supervisor Si Li has not yet reached the peak of his power, but Yang Qingyuan is very clear about the potential of Supervisor Si Li.
Although Si Li Jian's palm eunuch is only of the fourth rank, in the future, he will be an important weight to check and balance the power of the empire.
Since the rebellion in the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was no prime minister, and some of the prime minister's responsibilities were replaced by six bachelors in the two pavilions and four halls.
In order to limit the influence of the great scholars on the emperor, the late emperor divided the original power of the prime minister into two parts, namely the voting plan and the approval.
The government affairs of the Great Zhou Dynasty were first written in ink by the great scholars with small slips, and their review suggestions were written on paper and pasted on the opposite side of each memorial, and then the emperor reviewed it.
Due to Emperor Zhou's control over the Great Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Zhou simply delegated the power of approval, that is, the power of approval, to the cabinet.
There are checks and balances between the two pavilions and the four halls.
But this is only a check and balance within the civil service group. Changing the emperor with a weaker control over the court will lead to the loss of imperial power.
Therefore, in the future, when the emperor feels that his weight is not strong enough, he will disperse the power again and let another group check and balance the civil servant group.
The objects you can choose are the Xungui Group or the Eunuch Group!
However, the Xungui Group is a martial arts group with a certain prestige in the military, so it is impossible to hand over political power to them.
So the only choice left is the Eunuch Group!
The future palm eunuch will be the leader of the eunuch group.
Not only that, Cao Zhengchun is also one of the five secrets of the imperial court.
In the center of Shendu, there are only five old-timers, Dongxuan, Zhuge, and Tiedan, the two factory supervisors of the East and West factories, and the chief arrester of the six gates, Liu Dufeng.
These five people had already entered the realm of Dongxuan before the heaven and earth changed, and their strength was far superior to the four commanders of Jin Yiwei.
Two of the divine lords are likely to be masters of the Heavenly, Elephant and Earth realm.
But it was such a character who secretly left the palace and came to Wudang Mountain when the emperor was seriously ill.
Of course, even though Cao Zhengchun was careful enough, people would still notice him.
His position is that of a great eunuch serving the emperor. If the news comes for a long time, it will definitely attract the attention of interested people.
"Is he here to see senior brother, or is he here to see King Sun Yao!?"
Yang Qingyuan's eyes flickered as he asked this question.
Mo Shengguyuan was wide-eyed, "Uncle Junior, how did you know he came to see King Sun Yao?!"
When he heard the answer from Mo Shenggu, Yang Qingyuan knew that the emperor's time was probably running out.
Otherwise, Cao Zhengchun would never have been asked to go to Wudang Mountain to meet Medicine King Sun Shichang at this time.
Sun Shichang's elixirs are unparalleled in the world, and there may be some magical elixir that can prolong Emperor Zhou's life.
It was really uncomfortable that Yang Qingyuan was not in the capital at this moment, but he was ordered by Yanyi to stay in Jinyang, and he was not allowed to leave without permission because of his responsibilities.
The thoughts in Yang Qingyuan's mind were spinning a thousand times, and then he said to Mo Shenggu, "You should keep this matter in your heart and never mention it to others again."
Mo Shenggu was a little confused. What did he say?! He just said that Cao Zhengchun went to Wudang Mountain to ask for an audience with Sun Shichang. How could this be a secret?!
However, although he is not good at wisdom, he knows that what his junior uncle said has its own truth.
"Uncle, don't worry, Shenggu will keep his mouth shut."
After Yang Qingyuan finished explaining Mo Shenggu, he immediately returned to his mansion, wrote a secret message using the Dali Temple code, and delivered it to the great scholar in the capital via a spirit-wind pigeon.
--------------------------
"What?!"
Cao Zhengchun thrust his palm upward, and the roof of the room on the second floor was immediately lifted by his strong palm force.
This palm was just a test, and Cao Zhengchun did not make a fatal move.
The man on the roof suddenly drew his sword, and with the force of the sword, he cut off Cao Zhengchun's palm with one blow.
"Bad Sword?!"
Cao Zhengchun immediately felt the ruthless and righteous sword intent.
"Are you the Guihai Yidao of Hulong Villa?!"
The two people on the roof fell into the room, and one of them dropped his mask. It was the Tianzi No. 1 secret agent of Hulong Villa, Duan Tianya.
"Eunuch Cao!"
Duan Tianya held the Japanese sword and gave Cao Zhengchun a simple salute.
"Duan Daxia!"
Factory Director Cao has always been very polite to people. His enemies call him Cao the eunuch and Cao the old dog.
But he has always been the "County Horse Lord", "The Divine Marquis" and "Begonia Girl"!
In terms of politeness, Eunuch Cao has never been afraid of anyone!
"This must be the number one person in Hulong Villa, Guihai Yi Dao, the hero of Guihai!"
Gui Hai Yi Dao nodded slightly to Cao Zhengchun as a greeting!
After all, you can't expect a swordsman who is ruthless, ruthless and loving to be a talkative one.
Although there was a smile on his face, Cao Zhengchun was not relaxed at all inside.
Still extremely wary of Duan Tianya and Gui Hai Yida.
On the surface, Hulong Villa and Dongchang are in the same camp.
But who doesn’t know what Zhu Tiedan’s idea is?! In this case, the only one the eunuch can trust is the eunuch. For example, the Yuhuatian in Xichang, or the big stall scalping Xiaotian.
They all exist dependent on the imperial power, and only they are absolutely loyal to the emperor!
"We are here to assist Eunuch Cao on the orders of our foster father!"
Cao Zhengchun was slightly startled when he heard this. His trip was top secret. Even the black-clad archery team had changed into conspicuous black clothes as a symbol of status, made up into multiple caravans, and followed him around. How did Zhu Wuwu know?!
"Although my foster father doesn't know what specific errands you are on, we have received information that you are already in big trouble!"
Cao Zhengchun knew the intelligence of Hulong Villa was powerful, but he still had a smile on his face.
"Duan Daxia is joking! Although the Za family can't compare to the extraordinary skills of the world, it can be considered a small success. There are not many people in the world that I can consider a big trouble!"
"Gong Ao!"
Duan Tianya said a name.
Gong Ao is a person from overseas. According to the information from Hulong Villa, the martial arts used by this person is "Shangshui Baodian". This is the martial arts originally from overseas. This person must have connections with overseas forces.
This man has an ugly face and short stature, but his martial arts skills are extraordinary. Ten years ago, Gong Ao, the "angry man", attacked twelve consecutive docks in three days and completely took them under his command.
After that, he fought against the Cao Gang, repelled the Shaolin Gang who came to help, and became a water bandit entrenched on the river.
However, they were also sensible. Most of the people who robbed were people from the rivers and lakes, and they rarely attacked government merchant ships, so the Qiantang Navy did not send troops to deal with them.
Although Twelve Links Wu is a ragtag group of people, Gong Ao is definitely a troublesome guy.
"No matter how strong Gong Ao is, he is still in the Yuan Hua realm. The Za family still doesn't take him seriously!" Eunuch Cao still has this little bit of confidence.
Not any country chicken or dog can threaten his forty years of Tiangang Boy Kung Fu.
"According to the information from Hulong Villa, Gong Ao probably broke through to the realm of Dongxuan a year ago."
According to the information from Hulong Villa, something important seemed to have happened this year, causing many masters in the world who were stuck in the Yuanhua Realm and had difficulty entering the Dongxuan to step into the Dongxuan.
However, the specific cause has not been found out yet. We only know that it was caused by changes in heaven and earth.
Cao Zhengchun had already started to be vigilant after hearing this. A mysterious cave lurking in the dark could already threaten him.
If he was alone, he would just let it go, but now he needs to bring the Tianchang Pill back to the capital safely, so he must be careful.
As for asking why Eunuch Cao didn't go straight to the capital with Tianchang Dan, it was because Sun Shichang gave Eunuch Cao a statement on drug contraindications.
Although the Tianchang Pill has been preserved in an jade bottle, it still cannot be exposed to the turbid air of the mortal world for a long time. If it is carried by someone all the time, the outer pill coat of the Tianchang Pill will fall off and the medicinal power will leak out.
So Cao Zhengchun put it in a jade box and put it in a box in the caravan.
This is the main reason why Eunuch Cao is facing difficulties now. Otherwise, as a master of the Dongxuan Realm, he would
"There are also killers from Qingyi Tower! They also took action!" Duan Tianya saw Cao Zhengchun's face twitching slightly and continued.
"Although we don't know what imperial order Eunuch Cao is carrying out, there must be a reason for our foster father to send us to help!"
Cao Zhengchun nodded. Looking at Duan Tianya and Guihai Yidao, they really didn't look like they were here to snatch the Tianchang Divine Pill.
Then Cao Zhengchun put on a smile again and said, "Then I'll help you two heroes!"
After arranging Duan Tianya and Gui Hai Yida, Cao Zhengchun came to the door where he was guarding the box containing Tianchang Pill alone.
The night passed and nothing happened tonight!
Next, I would like to invite Eunuch Cao to speak first!
On the way, Cao Zhengchun began to make arrangements, "I heard that Sir Duan is proficient in the Japanese Ninja Technique and has extraordinary physical skills. Could you please Sir Duan to patrol the rear for us to prevent anyone from attacking from behind?"
"The power of Hero Guihai's Heartless Slash is unparalleled. Please help Hero Guihai guard the side of the convoy to prevent sneak attacks!"
The two of them had no objections to Cao Zhengchun's arrangement. Although they didn't know why Zhu Wuli arranged for them to assist Cao Zhengchun, they just followed the orders of their adoptive father.
In this matter, the purpose of Hulong Villa and Cao Zhengchun is the same.
The current Emperor Zhou cannot die yet!
For Cao Zhengchun, the power he holds now comes from the trust of the emperor, but once the new emperor ascends the throne, he may not continue to trust Cao Zhengchun like Emperor Zhou did.
The same is true for Zhu Wuwu. Emperor Zhou was seriously ill, which was a good time for him to develop his power and cultivate party members. Naturally, the longer these days, the better!
As the group continued to move forward, they could already hear the sound of the rushing river.
Ahead is the Panjiang River. After crossing the Panjiang River, you will be out of Jingzhou.
When we arrived at the ferry of Banjiang River, there were no big ferries here, only a few small fishing boats, killing river fish.
Everything seemed peaceful, but Eunuch Cao had already noticed that something was wrong.
Although Eunuch Cao is now the factory director of the East Factory, when he first entered the palace, he was just a young eunuch in the imperial kitchen. At that time, he was not Cao Zhengchun, but Xiao Chunzi.
Not everyone can be called a eunuch.
When you first enter the palace, you can only serve as a pawnbroker, a long-term attendant, and a royal servant. If you perform well, you can be promoted to the eunuch. After the eunuch is promoted, you will be a young eunuch. The immediate superior of the young eunuch is the famous eunuch.
Xiao Chunzi, who has been studying in the Imperial Kitchen for a year, has a lot of experience in cooking meals.
The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty mainly had two meals a day, and it was already past the Chen hour, probably at the third quarter of the Si hour.
Chenshi is called the food time, which is when people eat in the morning, so the fish must not be killed for breakfast.
But if the fish is killed too early for dinner, by the time dinner is cooked, the fish will no longer be delicious.
The important thing is that too many fish were killed. The strong smell of blood was probably to cover up something, but Cao Zhengchun didn't hear any movement, which was outrageous.
With his Dongxuan realm martial arts, even the breathing energy within a hundred steps cannot escape his six senses and five senses.
Cao Zhengchun was sitting in the carriage and decided to cheat.
"Since you have been waiting for so long, why haven't you shown up yet?"
Originally, he just wanted to deceive the ambusher, but Cao Zhengchun didn't expect to blow up the water himself!
Suddenly, countless water splashes appeared on the river surface. Nearly a hundred water ghosts wearing water bodies and holding steel knives jumped out of the water and came to the shore, surrounding Cao Zhengchun and others.
The old man who was killing fish also put down the knife in his hand and said to Cao Zhengchun with his hands covered with blood.
"I, the Twelve-linked dock, am proud of the palace. I heard that Governor Cao is coming here. I have specially prepared a delicious whole fish feast for Governor Cao. I also ask Governor Cao to appreciate it!"
When Cao Zhengchun heard this arrogance, he was immediately furious!
"Arrogant!"
Gong Ao was shocked by Cao Zhengchun's words!
It seems like I haven’t done anything yet! I just want to treat Lao Cao to a fish dinner, why are I so arrogant!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Eunuch Cao seemed to have heard Gong Ao's inner doubts and spoke.
"How dare you compare yourself to a chopping board and a kitchen knife, and treat me as fish and meat!!"
This is an idiom that Eunuch Cao just learned from the dialect book, "You are the knife and Zu, and I am the fish and meat."
Now when I heard Gong Ao's words, I immediately felt that Gong Ao was using a metaphor, and immediately became furious.
Gong Ao opposite, it’s strange that I haven’t done anything yet?! But after all, I didn’t really come to invite Cao Zhengchun to dinner, how can I still tolerate you when I’m angry?!
"Do it!"
Before he finished speaking, Gong Ao also took action. With a movement of his true energy, the river water in the Panjiang River was continuously drawn around him, and then he shot out with a palm, turning into nine giant pythons and attacking Cao Zhengchun's carriage.
As soon as he strikes, the lion fights the rabbit and he uses all his strength.
But just when Gong Ao thought he had a plan, an extremely masculine true energy turned into a shield and enveloped the carriage.
The giant python formed by the nine rivers was unable to shake Lao Cao's Tiangang Boy Kung Fu.
"How can it be?!"
"Haha, with this little ability, you still dare to stop the Zajia here. I think you are getting impatient!"
Then a powerful and extremely masculine palm force came out from the carriage and hit Gong Ao on the boat.
"rise!"
Gong Ao shouted low, and under the guidance of his true energy, the river turned into a curtain of water and blocked his way.
This is the power of the "Shui Baodian" he practiced.
True Yuan has a natural affinity for water and can exert powerful power.
But just when Gong Ao thought he could block Cao Zhengchun's palm, the palm force of this powerful palm shattered the water curtain in front of Gong Ao with one blow.
Although Gong Ao dodged in time, the ship he was stepping on was shattered by the palm.
Not only Gong Ao, but also the men he brought were in bad condition.
The water ghosts are being massacred by the men of the Black Arrow Team.
Seeing this situation, Gong Ao immediately shouted loudly.
"If you haven't taken action yet, when will you wait!?"
