Zhang Quan was confused when he asked, "What did I hide from you? What did I do?"
"You don't want to say that? Okay!" After saying this, Zhou Quan led Zheng Jiu and the others out. When Zhang Quan saw this, he was surprised and said: "Didn't you say you were looking for Shu Brocade? Why didn't you look for it again?
Hey, where are you going?"
Seeing that they didn't answer, Zhang Quan hurriedly followed him until he came to the front of the house where he lived. Zhang Quan asked again: "What happened? Why didn't you look for it?"
Zhou Quan ignored him and only said to Zheng Jiu and Xiao Chengzi: "You two go in and look for him."
This time, Zhang Quan finally realized that Zhou Quan clearly wanted to search his house, and quickly said: "Wait a minute, what is going on, why are you searching my house?"
Zheng Jiuchao cast an inquiring look at the latter, and after the latter nodded, he said: "We suspect that you used the inferior Shu brocade that was previously in the warehouse to line your own pockets."
Zhang Quan shouted with a livid face: "Absurd! It's simply ridiculous! As the deputy director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, how could I do such a thing? Zheng Jiu, don't spit on me!"
In fact, it is not uncommon for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to enrich one's own pockets. Otherwise, how can one say that this is one of the most lucrative places in the palace? However, it is one thing to scrape the money, and another thing to find it.
Zhou Quan said coldly: "Whether he is a slanderer or not, you will know after a search."
Before Zheng Jiu and the others could make any move, Zhang Quan sternly said: "No search!" After saying that, he stared at Zhou Quan and said: "I know you don't like me, but after all, I am also the deputy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Manager, please don’t bully others too much.”
Zhou Quan said calmly: "Manager Zhang is overthinking. I just want to find the three missing pieces of Shu Brocade as soon as possible."
"If you want to find Shu brocade, you should go to the warehouse. How can I find it here?" As soon as Zhang Quan finished speaking, Zhou Quan said: "If Manager Zhang wants to prove his innocence, let Zheng Jiu and the others go in and look for it."
"No!" Zhang Quan said resolutely: "If everyone can enter my house and search, how can I, the deputy general manager, gain a foothold in the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Do you want to search? Yes, bring the Queen's handwriting!"
Zhou Quan's pupils shrank and he said coldly: "I will definitely report this matter to the Queen, but not now, and..." He took a step forward and said slowly: "In this house of internal affairs, it is not your turn to teach me.
work!"
Zhang Quan was so stared at that he felt a little nervous. He reluctantly stopped the urge to retreat and said sternly: "Anyway, if I say no search is allowed, no search is allowed!"
Facing his words, Zhou Quan showed a contemptuous smile, and then a cold and stern voice sounded in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, "Someone, take Zhang Quan aside!"
Two palace servants came in response, but after hearing Zhou Quan's words, they showed hesitation. After all, Zhang Quan is the deputy general manager, so it seemed inappropriate to do so. One of them tentatively said: "General Manager..."
Zhou Quan glanced at them and said coldly: "What's wrong? Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Zhou Quan has always been kind to others in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Even when he took the position of general manager, he never acted like a boss. This was the first time they saw such a cold and stern look. They quickly bowed and agreed, and then came to Zhang Quan's side, one on the left and the other on the right.
He grabbed Zhang Quan's arm and whispered: "Manager Zhang, I'm offended."
Zhang Quan said angrily: "Zhou Quan, I won't just let this matter go. I will definitely report it to the Emperor and the Queen Mother and ask them to uphold justice for me."
Zhou Quan ignored him and only ordered Zheng Jiu and the others to go in and search. After a while, Zheng Jiu and the others came out holding three pieces of material that were extremely dazzling under the spring sun and said: "Manager, we found these three pieces on the top of the cabinet.
The materials, all the marks on them are there, it’s the Shu brocade that we can’t find anywhere, it’s true that he stole the Shu brocade and took it for himself by subcontracting.”
When Zhang Quan saw this scene, he struggled excitedly and said: "Impossible! I didn't steal the Shu brocade. This... I didn't steal it, no!"
After carefully checking the materials, he said in a cold voice: "The stolen goods have been stolen, Zhang Quan, do you still want to deny it?"
"I'm not denying it. I really didn't do anything. This Shu brocade... Shu brocade must have been framed by someone. It was secretly placed in my house while I was away. It has nothing to do with me!"
Zhou Quan chuckled and said: "If even the things found in your residence are irrelevant, then I really can't think of anything else that is relevant." After a moment of pause, he said: "I will report this matter truthfully.
Queen, Zhang Quan, please wish yourself well."
Zhang Quan stared at Zhou Quan's leaving figure and suddenly said sharply: "I know, this is all your plan. You want to harm me, Zhou Quan, you are so vicious! I will not let you go."
, even if I die, I will drag you to die with me."
Zhou Quan paused for a moment before striding forward again. If Zhang Quan hadn't been jealous and wanted to take away his position as general manager, why would he have bothered to set up such a trap? In the final analysis, what really harmed Zhang Quan was
Not him, not Zheng Jiu, but Zhang Quan himself.
As a result, there is no suspense. Zhang Quan was dismissed from the position of deputy general manager and demoted to the lowest eunuch of the Jingjun because he secretly transferred Shu brocade and enriched himself. This was because Zhou Quan could not bear to harm Zhang Quan's life and begged Xianyue to spare him the death penalty.
the result.
When being taken away, Zhang Quan stared at Zhou Quan with resentment, gritted his teeth and said: "Zhou Quan, don't be proud. One day, I will take back the pain you have inflicted on me with all the profits.
meeting!"
No matter how much Zhang Quan yelled and cursed, he could not change his fate, and Zhou Quan could finally breathe a sigh of relief, no longer having to constantly worry that someone around him was going to harm him.
Compared with the turmoil in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, more people in the palace are concerned about the Wing of Yongshou Palace, and Qiao Yaner is no exception. Ever since she heard Dong Xiu talk about Wei Jingxuan, she became very interested and wanted to
She met Wei Jingxuan, but the Yongshou Palace was guarded day and night, so she waited and watched near the Yongshou Palace for several days, but returned without success.
That night, Qiao Yan'er left Yongshou Palace disappointed again. When she walked to a remote place, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. After looking her up and down, he said, "Is that Qiao Yan'er?
"
Qiao Yan'er looked at this strange eunuch and asked warily: "Who are you?"
The visitor smiled slightly and said, "My name is Ye Fang. I was asked to bring something to you."
"Give it to me?" Qiao Yan'er pointed at herself in confusion. She entered the palace under a pseudonym. Logically speaking, no one in the palace should know her, unless... someone saw through her identity. Thinking of this, Qiao Yan'er
The son trembled slightly and said, "Who is it?"
"You will know after seeing it." Following these words, Ye Fang put a package of things in Qiao Yan'er's hand, "I am on duty in Qianqing Palace. If you need anything, you can come see me."
