Chapter 209 Jinyun Tower

(PS: The next chapter of Chu Chen will be on the shelves soon. Brothers, please stop smoking two packs of cigarettes and support subscribing!)

Seeing Han Qian's doubts, Xinchang Hou Lipu said: "This cheap maid actually ignored the imperial concubine's orders and was slapped in the mouth by the imperial concubine's order. Thanks to the imperial concubine's kindness, she was spared her life."

Although the female officials in the palace were not particular about beauty, they were still required to have a good appearance. Judging from Song Xin's appearance, she was probably disfigured.

Han Qian did not say that they should be merciful to the people of Anning Palace. After all, the Prince's Palace and Anning Palace were in a life-and-death struggle and there was no room for mercy. However, it was not the best idea to seek revenge that was too eager or even too hasty at this time.

There was a hint of cruelty in the words of Marquis Xinchang, and he didn't seem to think it was anything. Han Qian secretly felt that Concubine Shi had been suppressed miserably by the Anning Palace over the years, and he couldn't wait to vent the bad breath that had been held in his chest for so many years. With his previous temperament, he also

Most people feel that this is a very satisfying thing to do.

Thinking of this, Han Qian just sighed slightly and remained silent.

At this time, Zhang Ping asked the young eunuch in Qingyi who was following him to stand farther away. Looking at Xinchang Hou Li Pu, Han Qian said:

"We all understand that His Majesty has some expectations for the third prince at this time, but there is still a long way to go to see whether the third prince is the candidate in His Majesty's mind. His Majesty probably does not want to see His Majesty succeed him.

After ascending to the throne, he will seek revenge for the suffering he suffered before. Your Highness is your Majesty's flesh and blood, and the prince, second prince, grandson and other princes and grandsons are also your majesty's flesh and blood!"

Han Qian glanced at Zhang Ping in surprise.

While in Xiangzhou, Han Qian confirmed that Zhang Ping was from Wanhonglou and Xinchang Hou Mansion, so he urgently contacted Li Zhigao, relieved Chai Jian and Li Chong from commanding the guard camp, and briefly put Zhang Ping and Yao Xishui under house arrest.

Han Qian had no direct or profound understanding of Zhang Ping's character.

After that, they were trapped in Xichuan. Zhang Ping kept a low profile. After blocking the falling rocks for the third prince in the city, he spent a long time recuperating from his injuries. Han Qian didn't have much contact with Zhang Ping, but he didn't expect that.

He can have this insight.

However, Zhang Ping's meaning when he said this to them was also very clear. The main reason was that his influence on the imperial concubine and the third prince was limited. He hoped that Han Qian and Xinchang Hou Li Pu would give more advice to the third prince and the imperial concubine on these details.

.

Han Qian nodded slightly, agreeing to the matter, and continued walking to the East Court Hall.

Shen Yang and Zheng Hui had already left the Prince's Mansion first. Guo Rong, Li Chong, Wang Lin and others were still guarding the east courtyard hall. When they saw Han Qian, Xinchang Hou Li Pu and Zhang Ping walking out, they came over to ask.

Said: "What teachings does the imperial concubine have?"

"Han Qian was favored by the concubine and was rewarded with a farm and more than ten households of slaves." Han Qian couldn't wait to say it first, showing some hint of showing off.

The corners of Li Chong's mouth twitched slightly.

Wang Lin naturally understood what it meant for the concubine to give the reward alone, but Han Qian's triumphant look made him feel disdainful. He was a descendant of the Wang family in Runzhou, with a farm of 400 to 500 acres of fertile land, and 30 to 40 slaves.

It was really nothing in front of him.

No matter what the concubine's private reward represents, Han Qian's official official position in the prince's palace is to engage in literature, and his responsibilities are similar to those of his father, Han Daoxun, who was the secretary of the Provincial Young Supervisor, including checking classics and reviewing articles.

This time the third prince was granted the title of County Prince, and Emperor Tianyou also rewarded him with many classics and classics, which are all stored in the Jinyun Tower in the east courtyard.

From then on, Jinyun Tower was where Han Qian, Feng Yi, and Kong Xirong, who were both engaged in literature, had their offices in the county prince's palace.

After the third prince stayed in the inner palace to accompany the concubine for dinner, he had to send the concubine back to the palace in the afternoon. After Han Qian had a brief meal, he asked a guard to lead him to Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Zheng Tong and Lin Haizheng.

Jinyun Pavilion walked over, wanting to get acquainted with his future office space in the Prince's Mansion.

Jinyun Tower is next to the east courtyard wall of the palace. Across the courtyard wall and a small alley outside the wall is the Ningxiang Tower Rouge Shop.

Han Qian stood in front of the courtyard gate. Looking up, he could see the overhanging eaves on the second floor of the rouge shop from a distance, and there was even a faint scent of rouge coming through.

Jinyun Tower is a three-story wooden building built in a lush garden. Before it was conquered and annexed to the prince's palace, it was originally the place where Jiuyan's books were collected.

Although the families who lived on this street before were either rich or noble, Emperor Tianyou wanted to expand the residence for the third prince, so the old owners of these residences from Ningxiang Building Rouge Shop to Linjiang Hou Mansion had no choice but to suffer.

The second and third floors of Jinyun Building are the library, and there is also an elegant room for the third prince to browse the books. The first floor is the place where the classics are checked. At this time, two old men with gray hair and no beards are guarding inside.

The two old officials were wearing ordinary blue cloth robes and looked ordinary. They were the kind of people who might not be able to be found if they were thrown into the crowd for a long time. When they saw Han Qian coming over, they did not wait for the introduction by the guard leading the way.

, walked to the steps under the corridor of Jinyun Tower, bowed and said: "May I ask if this person is Mr. Han, who is engaged in literature?"

Han Qian didn't pay special attention to it. He bowed his hands in return and said politely: "It's Han. May I ask the names of these two elders?"

"I don't dare to take it seriously. One of our two little old men is named Jiang Huo and the other is named Yuan Guowei. From now on, we will be your lord's secretary. If you have anything to do, please send me." The two old officials said respectfully.

.

Han Qian's mind was not on these two old officials. He thought that he, Feng Yi, and Kong Xirong would be in Jinyun Tower in the future, but he only had two soldiers who could be dispatched. He also laughed dumbly. He and Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei

The man said: "I just returned to Jinling today. I don't know anything about the Prince's Mansion or Jinyun Tower. I will have to rely on you two for many things in the future. By the way, Master Feng and Master Kong, do they appear often?"

Han Qian was asking about the whereabouts of Feng Yi and Kong Xirong, but as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Feng Yi's voice coming from a long distance away: "Han Qian, Han Qian, you returned to Jinling today and you didn't send anyone to inform your brothers.

Where have you been enjoying yourself for a month?"

Han Qian turned around and saw Feng Yi and Kong Xirong rushing into the garden like a gust of wind.

"I thought that you should be with His Highness, so I didn't send anyone to inform you. I didn't expect that you were really lazy and didn't stay here for a long time." Han Qian said with a smile.

"You have wronged us. Xirong and I were sent out by His Highness to do something before noon." Feng Yi said, complaining about the injustice, and then asked Han Qian to find a place to drink tea and listen to songs.

Han Qian said: "I just returned to Jinling, and I don't know many things about Jinyun Tower, nor do I know that some classics need to be checked." He ordered Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei, "How many books are hidden in this building?

Do you want a catalog? Bring it to me and take a look at which part of the classics on this floor should be reviewed..."

"Jiang Huo, Yuan Guowei and the others are not Confucian scholars and old officials, but old eunuchs from the Internal Affairs Bureau. For some unknown reason, they were kicked to His Highness by His Majesty. How do they know about checking the classics?" Feng Yi said to each other with a smile,

"If you really want to check and proofread the books in Jinyun Tower, you'll have to hire someone else."

"Oh!" Feng Yi didn't care, but Han Qian was suddenly startled, as if someone had hit him hard with a heavy hammer. He turned around and looked at Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei, and saw that the two of them were harmless at this time.

Wen Liang's eyes suddenly narrowed, revealing a hint of sparkle, and he bowed slightly to him again.

At the end of the early period, Huainan Road was divided into two groups: Huainan Jiedushi and Guangling Jiedushi.

When Emperor Tianyou rose to power in Huainan, his foundation was still shallow, but the foundation of the Guangling Jiedushi Xu family was much deeper, and the use of eunuchs in violation of regulations had long been a common practice.

After the Xu family of the Guangling Jiedu Envoy was merged into the Huainan Army along with Xu, most of the eunuchs employed in the imperial government were people from the backyard of the Guangling Jiedu Envoy's house, as well as the Ministry of Internal Affairs who presided over official bans after the founding of the People's Republic of China. They had long been under the influence of Xu.

Post control.

When the Huainan Army, under the command of Emperor Tianyou, established the capital of Chu in Jinling, the treasures of the inner palace, the wealth of Huangzhuang's mines, and the construction of the imperial city were initially under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu; Feng Yi's father, Feng Wenyang, once served in

The Shaofu is appointed as the Shaojian.

In the fourth year of Tianyou's reign, Emperor Tianyou established another internal bureau within the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was responsible for the delivery of forbidden treasures and other matters. It was equivalent to Emperor Tianyou's personal financial manager.

However, the Internal Affairs Bureau was one of the few places in the Ministry of Internal Affairs where Empress Xu of An Ning Palace could not get involved. Obviously, what she had to do or be able to do was far more than just managing the collection of forbidden treasures.

And the enshrinements of the Imperial Bureau are not all eunuchs. Many of them are old soldiers who have followed Emperor Tianyou for many years, but because they have no family, they have nowhere to go after leaving the army.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was Emperor Tianyou who placed these lonely old soldiers in the Inner Bureau because of his old friendship, but this also ensured Emperor Tianyou's absolute control over the Inner Bureau.

Han Qian didn't have time to take care of Jiang Huo carefully just now. Yuan Guowei and the other two took a closer look at them at this time. They saw that their finger joints were thick and the calluses on their tiger's mouth were extremely thick. They were ordinary scribes. They were obviously two masters of martial arts. Just now

They can also prevent him from noticing anything unusual, and they are also two masters at disguise and concealment.

The hairs on Han Qian's back stood up slightly, and he looked up at the three-story Jinyun Tower. Only then did he finally understand that Emperor Tianyou wanted to use this Jinyun Tower as Zuo Si's headquarters in the Prince's Mansion, even if Zuo Si would still be there in the future.

He will be in charge, but he must accept the supervision of Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei.

Han Qian frowned slightly and carefully thought about the details of his morning meeting with Xinchang Hou Li Pu and Zhang Ping. Li Pu and Zhang Ping did not seem to know the true identities of Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei, at least they did not tell them anything in the morning.

There have been explicit or implicit reminders.

Perhaps because of Feng Wenlan's connections in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Feng Yi learned about the origins of Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei, and accidentally revealed their identities.

Han Qian didn't say anything at the time. He had a few nonsense words with Feng Yi and Kong Xirong, and sent them to other places. Then he went to Jinyun Tower to meet Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei, and said: "In the future, I will ask the two elders to take care of them."

."

"Lord Han, you are polite. We and I will still serve as officials under Lord Han and be at your disposal," Jiang Huo and Yuan Guowei said.

Han Qian asked Tian Cheng, Gao Shao and others to wait outside, and said to them with a smile:

"There is no fourth person in this room, and the two elders do not need to keep silent with Han Qian. From now on, Han Qian will be able to decide what matters in this building, and what matters need to be explained clearly to the two elders.

As well as who the two elders are responsible to, we have made these things clear first, so that important matters will not be delayed in the future. Two elders, do you think Han Qian is right?"

After Guo Liang, Gao Chengyuan and others led their troops back to Jinling, all their troops were relieved from active service and returned to the military mansion. Li Zhigao and Zhou Shu's two troops were stationed in the Longque Army as active standing troops.

Junzhou——The generals and soldiers of the Longque Army were all brought under the jurisdiction of the Left and Right Protectorate.

This also means that in addition to the thousand elite guards under the jurisdiction of the Marriage Affairs Office and the Zhang Nei Palace, the scouts and chazi under the jurisdiction of Zuo Si are the only direct military forces that the prince's office can control in Jinling City, and

Is it still a secret power hidden in front of the water? It is obvious that it can no longer be fully controlled by Han Qian alone.

Emperor Tianyou had an eye on Zuo Si and refused to summon him twice. Han Qian had foreseen today's situation. However, he had to ask directly about some things immediately to avoid getting entangled and delaying the business.
