Zhichun stood at the door of the side hall, craning his neck and staring in the direction of the courtyard door. After staring for a whole day, none of the people he expected came, but several concubines who were looking for trouble came.
She turned around and asked doubtfully: "Master, why don't you have a letter yet? It's been a day, why should Eunuch Zhang get a reply?"
Please let me know if you can make it, don’t let them worry about it!
As Lihua wrote, she said: "The time has not come yet, so there is no rush."
"Oh..." Zhichun walked back to the case to polish his ink, and asked again: "Master, are you done?"
It’s not that she cares about the imperial seal, but it’s just that she feels uncomfortable being hung up on it.
Lihua's subordinates didn't stop: "It's not done yet."
Zhichun said "Ah", a little surprised and missed. It was the first time they missed.
Then, she said "Oh..." and began to feel distressed.
She didn't feel sorry for Gong Zhang, but felt sorry for her master. She worked so hard in vain. For this reason, many concubines came to test why Shi Qin was gone for so long.
Zhichun saw with his own eyes that if his master's acting skills hadn't aroused the resonance of being unfavorable and made all the concubines leave sadly, they might have been troubled.
She cheered up and consoled her: "Master, it doesn't matter if one is missing. We have six. One of them is silver. It's just copper. We don't take it seriously."
After comforting her, she murmured unwillingly: "I had known earlier that when Eunuch Zhang said that we were in the wrong palace, I should have left, so that I wouldn't have wasted all my efforts."
She didn't want to do it at that time. Eunuch Zhang obviously didn't believe her and her master, so he had to find excuses to deceive the child.
Lihua laughed. She didn't let Zhichun know that she actually really wanted to get the palace seal.
Before going to Cangchen Hall yesterday, Lihua asked Zhichun to do whatever she wanted without being too accommodating.
The more flattering and accommodating the people in Cangchen Palace are, the more unbelievable they are.
As the problem of Cangchen Palace has not been solved for so long, the people who are most anxious to get angry are the people of Cangchen Palace.
Therefore, there is no need to hurry up and make people think that they have ulterior motives. It is better to whet their appetite.
That's what Lihua did, and finally attracted Zhang Defa.
Now hearing Zhichun muttering like this, Lihua said enigmatically: "Don't worry, in a few days, Eunuch Zhang will definitely present the palace seal with both hands."
Zhichun was surprised: "Why is this?"
Lihua didn't answer directly, but asked Zhichun to think about it first.
Zhichun thought for a while and shook his head: "Master, I can't understand this, isn't it a failure?"
If it didn’t work, it means their method didn’t work. How could they get it later?
Lihua put down the last stroke with her left hand, put down the pen, and said with a smile: "It's not that it didn't work, it's that Eunuch Zhang didn't want to give us the palace seal in the first place!"
Those who can climb up to the position of general manager are all talented people and masters of deceiving others.
From the beginning to the end, they didn’t mention a single word about the palace seal, and later on, they were careful to trick Zhichun into entering another palace.
When she heard about the items, Lihua knew something was wrong, but pretended not to know and continued to act with others.
This big housekeeper looks kind and has a lot of evil intentions, and he doesn't believe them at all.
Especially the look in her eyes when she writes something on paper is like looking at a vixen trying to seduce people.
So Lihua took advantage of the situation and wiped out the things on the paper, leaving a hand and not giving it away.
The picture she drew was actually a floor plan, in which all the objects in the Cangchen Hall dormitory were drawn and their precise placements were marked.
Zhang Defa was smart but was misled by his cleverness. He thought that after arranging the arrangement once, he would know how to arrange it once and for all.
To Lihua, this idea is really naive.
The monster's eyes are so poisonous that you can see them as long as the object moves a little.
You know it from the attic of the library. The palace servants there are very careful when cleaning, and they don't dare to change anything.
And Cangchen Hall will not have to be cleaned and dusted in the future, then the placement of objects may change.
Zhang Defa doesn’t know this yet.
Besides, wouldn’t it be possible to add or subtract more objects to Cangchen Hall in the future? The composition of the layout would have to change accordingly.
Does Zhang Defa know it?
Just here, you dare to cross the river and burn the bridge!
Lihua figured it out right then and she scribbled the half-written piece of paper into a ball, waiting for people to come back and beg her.
It depends on her mood then!
Zhichun suddenly realized it and scolded with a bulging face: "This slave looks at his treacherous face and knows that he is not a good person!"
Lihua picked up the paper and blew it, then nodded in agreement: "Well, they are not good things."
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Cangchen Palace is not a good thing from top to bottom.
Cangchen Hall.
"Wu Dingbang is missing?" Yu Chigong put down the ink pen in his hand, raised his head and asked.
Yan Ming, the Secretary of Internal Security, reported next: "Yes, long live my lord, Mr. Wu did not return to Wufu the night before. I have been searching for him to no avail today. No one in the Wufu Yamen knows where he is. Mr. Wu's carriage, horse and entourage are also missing. Izhi
I suspect someone has kidnapped Mr. Wu."
The night before, Yan Ming and Wu Dingbang said goodbye in front of the palace gate. The emperor thought that Wu Dingbang had worked hard these days, so he allowed him to go home and recuperate for a few days.
Today, Yan Ming went to look for him because of the Ministry of War case. Unexpectedly, he went to Wu Mansion and heard that he had not come back at all.
Yan Ming realized something was wrong at that moment, so he did not say anything, and secretly explored it, but found no trace. A living person just disappeared.
If he hadn't gone, perhaps no one would have noticed. People in the Wu Mansion thought he was in the foreign affairs office, and people in the palace and Yamen thought he had returned home.
Yuchi Gong looked solemn and began to think.
Wu Dingbang played an indispensable role in investigating corruption in the Ministry of War, and his role was crucial.
But on the surface, there is almost no trace of Wu Dingbang.
Now that the secret investigation has come to an end, if you want to prevent Wu Dingbang from investigating the case, you should start early instead of waiting until today.
At this time, who is going to kidnap Wu Dingbang?
Yuchi Gong thought about it and asked: "Have the city gate guards ever seen his carriage leaving the city?"
Yan Ming shook his head: "Never."
Yuchi Gong had some guesses in his mind and asked: "How about the weapons produced by the Ordnance Bureau?"
Yan Ming replied: "As far as I know, the first batch of weapons has been secretly transported to the border, and the Internal Security Department has secretly protected it along the way. Everything is as usual now, and will arrive at the fortress in the near future. The second batch is being manufactured as fast as possible, and it will be ready in five days.
, then it was shipped to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. As for the development of new weapons, I only know that the progress is not going well, but I don’t know the rest."
"How is the arrest of the left minister of the Ministry of War?"
Yan Ming kowtowed and knelt down: "People from the Internal Security Department outside sent the news back to Beijing. After Yang Zhixu escaped, he disappeared like a mud cow into the sea. The people behind the scenes sent dead soldiers to kill him. We have fought against each other and never captured anyone alive.
Incompetent for a humble position."
Yang Zhixu was extremely cunning and well versed in reconnaissance methods. In addition, those dead soldiers were very troublesome, which led to the Internal Security Department losing track of him.
Yuchi Gong did not speak. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Intensify the search in the capital."
Yan Ming was startled and seemed to understand: "Long live Lord, you mean he returned to the capital? He...how dare he!"
This important area of the capital has government officials patrolling the east, west, south, and north. It is also the headquarters of the Internal Security Department. Once you enter, it will be difficult to get out again.
If this is the case, this person is really too bold.
Yuchi Gong sneered: "Why don't you dare!"
He stood up and walked down, saying slowly: "I heard that Yang Zhixu and his wife are deeply in love..."
