Huang Zihua also had his own sources of information. With Zhan Shifu's ability, it was not very troublesome to find a few people who had served as officials in the northwest. After interviewing several people, Huang Zihua understood what the two words Yuan Feng represented.
Meaning, this person is by no means an ordinary person.
Without further ado, Huang Zihua immediately went to the palace to meet the prince. Unexpectedly, the prince heard his intention and just said lightly: "I am tired today, let's talk about it another day." Huang Zihua had no choice but to come in person.
Huang Zihua came in a hurry and did not prepare any gifts. After Yuan Feng welcomed him into the main hall, he immediately saw the ancient sword placed on the table and the red name card with gold sprinkling.
The third prince likes to make friends, and heroes in the world are proud to receive his name. Although the gold-red paper only has the simple words "Zhang Chengtai" written on it, it is of great significance. He is the prince of the current dynasty.
Everyone who received the name card of the third prince regarded it as a treasure, put it in a box, placed it on the altar table and worshiped it morning and evening.
Zhan Shifu knew all these things, but he didn't expect that Lao San spent such a big sum of money this time and also gave him an ancient sword. Just looking at the nanmu box is worth a lot, not to mention the ancient sword itself. It is said that Yuan
Feng was a swordsman, and he was fond of weapons. The third prince liked him and condescended to pay him a visit. Maybe he hadn't left yet. Thinking of this, Huang Zihua subconsciously glanced behind the screen, and there was a vague figure.
.
Yuan Feng pretended to be casual, stuffed the red paper into his sleeve, and asked someone to take away the ancient sword, and then he said, "Master Huang, please sit down."
The guests and hosts were seated, and after some pleasantries, Huang Zihua mentioned Fan Liangchen, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, and praised the feudal official. He also expressed the prince's admiration for Governor Fan in his words. Huang Zihua spoke very implicitly, saying
Everything was touched upon, and some minor misunderstandings between the two parties were also mentioned, for which Yuan Feng also expressed his understanding.
The meeting was very short, because Huang Zihua's heart was full of that famous card, and he was disturbed. This time, he was a step late. The third child's movements were too fast, but he still came after all, and he said what he needed to say.
, whether to choose a dignified prince or an idle prince depends on Yuan Feng's thoughts.
When they had finished talking, Huang Zihua stood up and said goodbye: "Since Mr. Yuan has other guests, Huang will not bother you anymore." After saying this, he nuzzled his lips behind the screen and smiled a bit.
Yuan Feng laughed and didn't explain, and sent Huang Zihua out in person.
Returning to the hall, Yuan Feng laughed and said: "I didn't expect that both princes came to visit me. My weight is not light."
Ye Kai came out from behind and said, "Then who are you going to seek refuge with?"
Yuan Feng sneered: "Is there any difference?"
…
In the inner courtyard of the palace, the imperial garden, the emperor was walking slowly on the path in the garden, with only one eunuch following him. The snow in the south of the Yangtze River cannot be kept. The snow that fell a few days ago has long since melted. The emperor likes evergreen plants.
, so many hollies were planted in the garden. Even though it was the coldest month of winter, it was still full of life.
"Long live my lord, the plum blossoms are blooming over there. Please go over and watch them." Cao Shaoqin, the general manager of the palace, stood half a step behind the emperor on the left and pointed at the imperial garden.
"Well, let's go take a look." The emperor walked over, and a group of eunuchs and maids in the distance hurriedly moved into action. Some were carrying food boxes, some were carrying chessboards, and some were holding mink fur cloaks. A few of them were nimble.
The little eunuch quickly took a detour to the Plum Garden to clean the stone tables and chairs in the garden, put cushions on them and wait for the emperor.
The emperor strolled and asked seemingly casually: "Old Cao, my sons have been quite honest recently."
Cao Shaoqin still had an everlasting smile on his face and said: "Hui Long live, your highnesses are all doing their duty, that is, meeting guests, practicing martial arts and so on. But what a coincidence, the prince and the third highness have been together in the past two days.
They all sent people to find the same person."
"Oh, who is so capable that he can make our two princes favor him?" A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of the emperor's mouth. The eldest son has a bad temper, arrogance and no talent, and the third son has a feminine personality and likes to play tricks, but he can
The two sons are attracted to a character who must be somewhat capable.
"This man's name is Yuan Feng. He came to the capital on behalf of Fan Liangchen, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. It is said that he has a lot of experience and is a powerful man." Eunuch Cao said.
"Yuan Feng..." This name is vaguely familiar, but I can't remember where I've heard it before. The emperor is old, and his memory has obviously declined recently. He sneered and said: "You can be called a hero by Lao Cao, is it possible?
What a talent?"
"According to Jin Yiwei's secret report, this person is indeed not an ordinary person. When he was fifteen years old, he killed the local horse thieves leader... Later, he formed a militia to investigate smuggling and selling Qiang horses... and later offended Wen Yan..." Cao Shaoqin
While walking, he started telling Yuan Feng's family history. He didn't finish the story when he reached the Plum Garden. The emperor listened with great interest and nodded from time to time.
Finally finished speaking, Cao Shaoqin quietly waited for the emperor's words, but the emperor looked at the plum blossoms in the garden and said: "It's a pity that there is no snow, otherwise the plum blossoms would be more pleasing to the eye."
The emperor often behaves like this, his thoughts jump too much, making it difficult for the people below to keep up with the situation, and they cannot speculate on the holy will. He accidentally does bad things with good intentions. Cao Shaoqin has served the emperor for decades, but he knows the emperor's temperament.
Don't talk at all times, just listen obediently.
Sure enough, the emperor's thoughts only stopped on the plum blossoms for a moment, and then jumped to another thing.
"What has Liu Songpo been busy with recently?"
"Back to the emperor, after returning to the capital from Chang'an, he closed the door at home to thank guests. At first, all the officials from the capital visited him. Later, when he saw that your majesty had no intention of using him, the family became indifferent."
The emperor nodded, said nothing, and continued to appreciate the plum blossoms.

…
After returning to his office, Cao Shaoqin sat quietly alone for a while, and then sent for several of his generals.
Cao Shaoqin is not only the eunuch in charge of the palace, but also the admiral of the Jinyiwei. The Jinyiwei is the trump card in the hands of the emperor. It is not reliable in the hands of foreign ministers. It is better to let the eunuchs around him rest assured. But except for Eunuch Cao, the Jinyiwei's subordinates
None of them are eunuchs.
After everyone arrived, Eunuch Cao first asked about the thief in the palace last time. After deliberately downplaying it, the so-called assassin had turned into a thief, but the case was never solved. Although the emperor did not mention it just now,
Cao Shaoqin knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer.
"Back to the Governor, you guys are in a dilemma. This case may involve some people in the palace, and the superiors have told you not to make too much noise, as it will be difficult to investigate."
Eunuch Cao said: "Who asked you to check in the palace? Go out and look for him. In the martial arts world of the Central Plains, a tall man who is good at making light of his body has been wounded by an arrow. Isn't this easy to check? Let's take it seriously.
Check, it doesn’t matter if we arrest more people, it’s time for the Third Brother to take a beating.”
The people below bowed together and said: "Yes."
"Oh, also, Liu Songpo has a son named Liu Jingyun. He is still at home and has nothing to do. Hasn't he always wanted to join the Ministry of Civil Affairs? This matter must be completed within three days."
The last thing, and the most important thing, is to investigate the group of people sent to Beijing by the Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, named Yuan Feng, and they must be investigated more carefully. Eight generations of ancestors must find out.
The people below couldn't understand why the governors from all sides sent people to Beijing to manage relations, so they should pay attention to this person. But since the governor said, they could only do it.
…
"What! Huang Zihua went too?" the third prince said in shock.
Although the eldest brother Ji is narrow-minded, he still has a few capable people under his command. When Shao Zhanshi came to visit, he was given enough face. After all, he is the prince, and as long as he shows some kindness, Yuan Feng will move up the ladder.
Climb, in comparison, the weight of the third prince, who is powerless and powerless, is much lighter. It doesn't matter if he gave me a sword, people still won't buy it.
The third prince was walking around in the palace, feeling a little depressed. Last time he went back to the palace, an assassin entered the palace, and they made a fuss most of the night, which made him frightened. All the targets were pointed at the West Palace, which is the palace where he and his mother-in-law lived.
But Zhang Chengtai knew in his heart that most of the time this incident was a ruse carried out by the prince to frame him.
Zhang Chengtai is the smartest of the four princes. He can write at the age of three, compose poetry at the age of seven, and can ride a horse and shoot arrows at the age of ten. His mother is the most favored concubine Xiao by the emperor. Unfortunately, the bad thing about mother and son is Tai.
She was too smart, and after the death of the empress, her mother, who had a good chance of being crowned empress, used some tricks to annoy the emperor. Not only did she not become the empress, she also had her title of imperial concubine taken away and became an ordinary concubine.
The third prince also suffered disaster, and even the fourth prince was crowned king, but he was still the prince. All kinds of unfair treatment made him extremely indignant, and he secretly accumulated strength. He was extremely smart, good at making money, and started a business in the capital.
He has done several businesses, all of which are big businesses that make a lot of money every day. The abundant money, coupled with the prince's dazzling title and the attitude of a courteous corporal, can win people's hearts. In a short period of time, the heroes and strangers under the third prince's command have
Not a few.
"How long did Huang Zihua stay in his house?" the third prince asked.
The little eunuch who came to report the news replied: "It takes one stick of incense."
Fortunately, nothing could be discussed in a stick of incense. Zhang Chengtai calmed down and was about to ask someone to prepare a carriage and horse to leave the palace in person, when suddenly someone came to report: "Something bad has happened."
"Why are you panicking?"
"Your Highness, Zhuangzi in the south of the city was raided by Jin Yiwei. Eight people were killed on the spot and twelve were taken back."
Zhang Chengtai sat weakly on the chair. The Jin Yiwei was not something that the prince could mobilize. Cao Shaoqin, that old gelding, would definitely not do anything without his father's will. Zhuangzi in the south of the city was a place where he raised dead men, and he had been detected by the Jin Yiwei.
, this made Zhang Chengtai feel a bone-chilling coldness, as if he were sitting naked in the field for three to nine days.
After a long time, Zhang Chengtai finally came to his senses and said resolutely: "Change, I'll see my father."
