The emperor's shout was obscured by the curtains and became blurry. In the palace where light and darkness met, it was like the roar of a ferocious beast, which made people feel heart-stopping.
Eunuch Yuan leaned to the ground.
"This slave is incompetent. This slave deserves to die." He said repeatedly.
The emperor stood up and walked around, waving his broad sleeves.
"I'm not heartless. The Fang family has enjoyed the glory and wealth. Isn't three generations enough? People can't be so greedy," he said.
"Yes, yes, your Majesty said so." Eunuch Yuan responded repeatedly.
"I know that the Fang family has been honest and responsible for so many years, so I ordered you to provide more assistance, but I ignored it." The emperor said, "Isn't this enough?"
"That's enough." Eunuch Yuan said seriously again, "Your Majesty is extremely kind to the Fang family."
After pacing back and forth and talking on the phone, the emperor's depression dissipated a lot. He sat down again with his sleeves folded, and the misty morning light shone into the room through the curtains.
"The Fang family's business is pretty good, and there hasn't been any mistakes for so many years." He asked in a deep voice.
"It's just that your Majesty is not a businessman after all." Eunuch Yuan took over and said.
Yes, he doesn't need that money now.
The most important thing is that he cannot let anyone know about the business he has done.
"As long as they are honest businessmen, I can naturally promise to ensure that they are rich and prosperous during their lifetime," the emperor said.
"This slave has always obeyed His Majesty's instructions and has never harmed the Fang family's business or the women." Eunuch Yuan hurriedly leaned over and said.
They just want the Fang family to die off their descendants.
It's a pity that the chess move is one move away.
"It's all because the slaves chose people poorly and exposed their flaws." Eunuch Yuan kowtowed in fear, "I almost caused a big disaster."
The emperor flashed a hint of annoyance, but he quickly covered it up and looked at Eunuch Yuan with a smile.
"How can I blame you?" he said, extending his hand to signal to stand up, "Maybe it's God's will."
Eunuch Yuan thanked him repeatedly.
"In order not to alert others, I will continue to look for opportunities to make arrangements." He said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"Old Yuan, of course I trust you." The emperor sighed with some emotion, "You are my truly reliable old man, otherwise I would leave this matter to Lu Yunqi."
It is true that Lu Yunqi's imperial guards did not know about this. Eunuch Yuan knew about it and was excited again when he heard this.
"This slave is unworthy of His Majesty's trust." He kowtowed and said.
"After arranging this matter, you will come back." The emperor sat leaning on the pillow, his face a bit worried, "Since Jiuling's death, Lu Yunqi has become more and more difficult to control, so I want you to come back and help me.
I, when the time comes, the Supervisor of Ceremonies will give you a position, and you don’t have to worry about anything else. Just do the things that the Jin Yiwei does, so that you can supervise them."
Eunuch Yuan was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." He kowtowed, raised his head and smiled flatteringly, knelt down and gently beat the Emperor's legs, "Is Your Majesty's cold leg feeling better?"
"What's so good? Although it's warmer here than Shandong, it's still cold." The emperor allowed him to serve him, holding his forehead with his hand and saying with a smile, "But the plaster you sent back is very effective, and you still miss me every year.
Something is wrong."
Eunuch Yuan had tears in his eyes.
"I have followed Your Majesty since I was a child, and there is no one else in my heart except Your Majesty." He choked and said, "I know how difficult it is for Your Majesty. How can those outsiders use it more conveniently than us?"
The emperor smiled and nodded.
"Okay, you go down and have a rest. After a rest, you have to leave again," he said.
Eunuch Yuan kowtowed in response, lowered his head and retreated.
The room was getting brighter and brighter, and he couldn't sleep anymore. The emperor simply reached out and flipped through the case. When he saw a memorial by Huang Cheng, he took it out and opened it. At a glance, he saw the three words "De Shengchang" in it, and he sat down immediately.
He straightened up, his expression getting uglier the more he looked at her, and threw the memorial on the table with a snap.
"Come here," he shouted.
The servants from outside all rushed in, raising the curtains while saluting the emperor who looked grim.
"My name is Mr. Huang..." the emperor said.
The chamberlain hurriedly responded and turned around to leave. After walking two steps, he was stopped by the emperor again.
"Let Lu Yunqi come," he said.

Yuan Bao walked slowly in the palace and left the emperor. He no longer had any humble posture. Occasionally, he would look at the arrogant red-robed eunuch passing by, with a bit of disdain on his face.
When the King of Qi came to the throne, he did not bring the old people of Qiandi to the capital. The palace people did not move, as a sign of respect for the late emperor.
He came here very rarely, and once he came here once in a while, he would be looked down upon with cold eyes by the big eunuchs. In their eyes, he, the eunuch of the dormitory, must have been thrown away like a dog.
A bit of a sneer appeared on Yuan Bao's face.
These losers have no idea how important he is to the emperor and how many things he has done. Just watch, he will be back soon. When he comes back, let them know who is the most popular person in front of the emperor.
people.
There were hurried footsteps and chaotic greetings from ahead.
Yuan Bao looked up and saw that all the eunuchs on the road were giving way, and a tall and thin man in red robe was walking slowly towards them with the morning light on his back.
Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he was able to wear a red robe at such a young age and was respected and feared by the eunuchs. Yuan Bao immediately knew that the person coming was Lu Yunqi.
Yuan Bao hesitated and stopped on the side of the road to avoid it like everyone else, but he couldn't help but look at it secretly.
The young commander of the Jin Yiwei was really beautiful, and his beautiful face was terrifying, but his eyes were as cold as a snake.
He walked straight past without squinting, as if everything was nothing.
Yuan Bao straightened up, looked at the passing figure, and curled his lips.
Whatever you are proud of, it is just a cheap life. You are where you are today thanks to good luck.
When Yuan Bao walked out of the palace, he had already changed his attire, had a beard on his lips, wore an ordinary cloth robe and a hat, just like a common companion of any official, and left the Imperial Street on horseback.
Quickly turn into the market.
Although it has just dawned, there are already many people walking around on the street, and shops are busy taking off their door panels in preparation for opening.
He walked around and stopped in front of the Deshengchang Bank.
The ticket office had just opened half of the door, but when Yuan Bao walked in, a waiter greeted him in time.
"Change some money." Yuan Bao said, took out a banknote and spoke in a thick Shandong accent, with the nervousness of an outsider and the pretentious calmness.
This kind of outsider appearance will always be ridiculed and laughed at by the locals in the capital.
When Yuan Bao saw the waiter, he looked at him again.
"Okay, sir, please sit down and wait a moment." The clerk said, took the banknote and put it into the counter.
Through the partition on the high platform, Yuan Bao saw the waiter saying something to another waiter, and the waiter also raised his head and glanced at him.
Although the two spoke in low voices, they did not laugh.
After all, Deshengchang is doing big business. If the guys don't follow these rules, they should close down as soon as possible.
Yuan Bao didn't care, raised his legs, picked up the tea on the table and took a slow sip.
Soon the guy came out carrying a heavy small box.
"Sir, if you would like to receive it, would you like us to deliver it to your house?" he said respectfully.
Yuan Bao stood up.
"No need." He said, took the box and walked out.
The waiters only gave greetings indoors and did not send them outside the door, lest the guests feel uncomfortable.
After Yuan Bao left, the waiter stood up. Instead of greeting the next guest, he turned around and walked quickly inside, passing through several doors and reaching the backyard.
Shopkeeper Liu is watching the stove and drinking tea.
"The shopkeeper." The waiter stepped forward and whispered, "The person in the portrait has appeared." (To be continued)
