Zhou Quan nodded and suddenly said: "Is there any way to lure this crow somewhere else?"
Xiao Chengzi thought for a while and said: "They always gather together where there is food. As long as the feeding place is changed, it shouldn't be a problem." After that, he said curiously: "Manager, why do you suddenly ask this?"
Zhou Quan withdrew his gaze and fell on Xiao Chengzi's face, "Do you still remember what I asked you to do a few days ago?"
Xiao Chengzi's eyes narrowed and he asked tentatively: "The manager is talking about... where is the Yongshou Palace?" He has followed Zhou Quan for several years and can be said to be the most trusted person in Zhou Quan in the Ministry of Internal Affairs besides Zheng Jiu, so Zhou Quan has to deal with Wei Jingxuan.
He also knows a little bit about things.
A crow flew back with fluttering wings. Its black feathers fell from its body and landed lightly on the ground. Zhou Quan leaned over to pick it up and said in a low voice: "Not bad, Yongshou Palace!"
"Of course I remember. In fact, there is one thing I really want to ask the manager, why are you and..." He hesitated for a moment, swallowed his words again, and then said: "We must agree to die? She has been killed.
I have been imprisoned for the rest of my life and it will be difficult to come out. Manager Zhang always teaches me to keep a line with others so that we can meet each other in the future. So no matter how Manager Zhang embarrasses you, you always smile at me. But when Wei agreed to this matter,
But refuse to leave any room?"
Zhou Quan said coolly: "That's because you haven't really seen Wei Yaosheng's power!"
Xiao Chengzi said in a low voice: "With all due respect, Wei Zhengyi is not that powerful. Yes, it is indeed rare to become the master of a palace from a palace maid, but it is not impossible. Concubine Hui is a palace maid, but she is ranked as the fourth concubine; and Kangxi
Among the good concubines and the virtuous concubines of my time, which one is not better than Wei Xuesong?"
Zhou Quan turned Black Feather in his hand and said coolly: "You think so, which only proves that you don't see clearly enough. Yes, among the concubines who were born as palace maids, the position of the concubine is not the highest, but you
None of the people mentioned are as outstanding as Wei promised."
Xiao Chengzi asked in confusion: "Why?"
"I don't know what happened during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, but Concubine Hui is what she is today because of the support of the Empress. But what did Wei promise? She has nothing, no, she does, but they are all enemies, and those people want to get rid of them.
She was quick, but she got the emperor's favor and climbed up to the position of the first palace step by step.
Zhi, if she hadn't been killed by the Yehenala clan later, she might have become the imperial concubine now, and... After the Yehenala clan was executed, the emperor already knew that Wei promised not to harm the ninth elder brother intentionally, but to be killed.
Although he has not said anything about the murder of Yehenala, there is no guarantee that one day he will not release the ban that Wei promised."
"That's true." Xiao Chengzi nodded and said, "But you have thought of many ways before, but none of them worked. What else can you do?"
"Stretch out your hand." Zhou Quan placed the black feather in his hand on Xiao Chengzi's outstretched palm and said, "The trick is right here!"
"This?" Xiao Chengzi stared at the ordinary black feather in his hand, scratched his head and said: "Manager, why are you talking so profoundly today? I can't understand a word of it."
"When you know." After saying this, Zhou Quan pointed to the crows on the top of the palace that were pecking at their own feathers, and said: "What you have to do now is to try to lure these crows to Yongshou Palace.
Go ahead, the more the merrier.”
Although Xiao Chengzi was still full of questions, he knew enough not to ask any more questions and nodded: "The little eunuch who is responsible for feeding the crows is very close to me. I told him that I will put the food there in the future, but I want the crows to last longer."
It will take some time to stay at Yongshou Palace."
Zhou Quan said: "Ten days, ten days later, I will see the same number of crows in Yongshou Palace as here."
Xiao Chengzi nodded in agreement, and went to find the little eunuch who was feeding him the next day. Of course, he would not tell the truth. He only said that there had been a lot of crows gathering in Leng Palace and Fengxian Palace recently. Although they would feed them specially, if there were too many crows, it would inevitably cause trouble.
When fighting for food, some crows are weaker, and they may starve. If a dead crow appears, they may be blamed, so it is best to have an extra place to feed, so that they can be spread out a little.
The little eunuch thought about it, and asked him where to find a way to disperse the crows. Xiao Chengzi thought for a while and said: "Yes, let's go to Yongshou Palace. Since Wei agreed to be banned, where can we go?"
It's no different from a cold palace. Except for the guards and the people who usually deliver meals, no one goes there. It's very quiet. It's best to feed around there."
The little eunuch did not become suspicious, and thought for a while and said: "You are right, okay, then we will lead some to feed near Yongshou Palace."
At this moment, someone ran over quickly. He was also a young eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, named Bai San. He was quite close to Xiao Chengzi on weekdays.
Bai San seemed to have been running for a long time. When he stopped, he was out of breath. He held his knees and panted hard. Xiao Chengzi asked doubtfully: "You are running so fast, but what happened?"
After his pounding heart calmed down a little, Bai San said with a smile: "Something happened, but it's a good thing for you. I'm sure you'll be happy after hearing this."
"A great thing?" Xiao Chengzi repeated doubtfully. Just when he was about to ask, he suddenly remembered something and quickly grabbed Bai San's arm and said, "Is it the decision of the General Manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? It's General Manager Zhou, right?
Right?"
"Yes, yes!" Bai San said with a smile on his face: "It's Mr. Zhou. It was the emperor's personal decree. As soon as I received the news, I came to find you. I didn't expect you to be here. I have been looking forward to it for so many years.
, the subtitle in the middle of "General Manager Zhou" has been removed, isn't it a great thing?"
Xiao Chengzi waved happily and said: "I said that the general manager would definitely be promoted to the general manager, and as expected, I guessed it right."
"Mr. Zhou has the support of the Empress, so his promotion to the position of general manager is inevitable. However, Deputy General Manager Zhang has been daydreaming. Now he can finally wake up. You didn't see Deputy General Manager Zhang's face just now. It was as red as pig liver."
, I was even worried that he would be so angry that his blood vessels would burst. It’s really funny to think about it.” After saying that, Bai San poked Xiao Chengzi with his elbow and said with a smile: “When you are proud in the future, don’t forget our brother.
A few, take care of more."
"Don't worry, whatever happens now will never change in the future." Saying this, Xiao Chengzi said excitedly, "Let's go to the general manager as soon as possible."
The three of them came to the House of Internal Affairs together. As soon as they entered, they saw a bunch of stewards congratulating Zhou Quan. It was so lively that Xiao Chengzi couldn't hide his excitement. He squeezed in and said: "General Manager, congratulations on your promotion to the position of General Manager."
