Shaolin Bajue

Chapter 1465 Credit
In the first year of Xinmeng, on the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Fang Jianming disguised himself as a man in his forties and sneaked into the capital.He knew that his return to Beijing this time had already fallen into Dugu Jiutian's calculations, and there must have been many overt or covert investigators deployed in the city.Therefore, as soon as he entered the city, relying on his familiarity with the capital, he quickly came to an inn.

This inn is very ordinary. When Fang Jianming registered, he made up a name. As long as the store has money to make, how can it ask more questions.At night, Fang Jianming used lightness kung fu, left the inn, and went to the imperial city.With his movement skills, he passed all the way without anyone noticing.Along the way, he found a total of more than 30 spies, and he deeply felt that Dugu Jiutian attached great importance to his return to Beijing.

When they arrived at the imperial city, a group of night patrol soldiers walked back and forth, heavily guarded, not to mention individuals, even a fly would hardly fly by.Such a battle is undoubtedly a huge barrier for most people, but for Fang Jianming, it is really nothing.He walked around the city, and finally chose to retreat. This is not a retreat in the face of difficulties. He came out tonight to investigate the movements in the capital for the convenience of future actions.

Nothing to say all night.The next day, he got up early, walked out of the inn, and walked along the street.Soon, when he arrived outside a teahouse, he made a sudden move, walked into the teahouse, chose a table and sat down.After the morning tea and snacks were served, Fang Jianming glanced at the situation in the teahouse. Except for two tea guests who came earlier than him, the other tables were empty.

After a while, the number of people coming to drink tea gradually increased. Fang Jianming strained his ears to hear the voices of everyone in the teahouse, but they were all commonplace things, not what he wanted.

He was feeling disappointed when he suddenly saw five middle-aged people walking in. The shopkeeper treated them very respectfully and invited them to a seat by the window.

After the five sat down, tea and various snacks were quickly served without ordering.The five people chatted while eating, and they talked about commonplace things, which Fang Jianming didn't want to hear, but Fang Jianming had already heard from their tone that two of the five were officials, and the others Three are rich.

Fang Jianming paid special attention to the two officials, but after listening for a while, the two of them talked more and more unpleasantly. They actually talked about how they were looking for flowers and asking Liu last night.

Fang Jianming frowned, and said to himself: "So it's two idiots, which made me listen for so long." Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly heard one of the three rich men say: "Master Chen, Lord Ma, I heard that you have a lot of friendship with the steward of Mr. Xu's house, I don't know when you will be free, and you can introduce the three of us."

The eyebrows of the two officials raised, and one of them said: "Master Xu, you should be respected as Elder Xu Ge."

The man before was startled, and said, "Old Xu Ge?"

The official said: "That's not true. Don't say that friends are telling you now, Mr. Xu Ge is now the most important person of the emperor. No matter who sees Mr. Xu Ge, inside or outside the court, he must salute him."

The person before said with a flattering smile, "I see."

The official snorted slightly, and said in a low voice: "Let me tell you the truth, the four people contributed greatly to the successful restoration of the emperor this time. The first person is Mr. Xu Ge, and the second person is Shi Da." General, the third person is Cao Duzhu, and the fourth person is Zhang Dudu."

The previous man said: "Master Chen, I still can't figure out what's going on in the affairs of the court, I hope you can give me some pointers, and I will thank you very much later." Suddenly realizing that there was another official sitting beside him, he hurriedly He added: "Of course, I will also offer Master Ma's portion with both hands."

"Master Chen" and "Master Ma" were delighted when they heard this, knowing that they could make such a fortune again this time, they laughed and said, "Drink tea, drink tea."

After the five chatted for a while, "Master Chen" called the shop owner and asked for an elegant seat.The five of them entered the private seat, and it was much more convenient for them to talk.

Fang Jianming's seat is some distance away from the private seat, and there are two walls separated by two walls. In addition, there are more and more people in the teahouse, and their voices are not low. He has to use his profound skills to listen carefully to the movement of the private seat.

Only the voice of "Master Chen" said: "Three, you probably don't know that the current minister of the Ministry of War has been taken over by Elder Xu Ge."

The voices of the three said: "Really?"

Mr. Chen gave a "hmm" and said: "Looking around the entire court, the No. 1 official of the civil servants is none other than Xu Ge Lao. The previous cabinet bachelors, those who went to prison, those who resigned, and now the All cabinet scholars must listen to Elder Xu Ge, and Elder Xu Ge deserves to be the chief assistant minister."

The person before said in surprise: "So, Xu Ge's current status is equivalent to that of a prime minister. Tsk tsk, it's incredible, it's incredible."

Chen Daren said: "The No. 1 civil servant is Elder Xu Ge, and the No. 1 military minister is naturally General Shi. General Shi was the Marquis of Wuqing before, but now he has become the Duke of Zhongguo. Count these honors in detail. In the world, how many people can get it?"

The person before said in admiration: "Wen has Xu Ge, Wu has General Shi, I am very lucky, very lucky."

Mr. Chen said: "As for Governor Cao, hehe, he is also very good. The original eunuch who was the chief inspector of ceremonies was... the last emperor's confidant. The emperor didn't arrest him because he was an old courtier. Fang, the current palm seal eunuch is Duzhu Cao. Duzhu Cao's original position was the admiral of the East Factory, and now he holds two positions. Even if the prince is resurrected, I am afraid that he will be ashamed of himself."

In the official system of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, the highest official is the eunuch with palm seal, and there are several eunuchs with pens under him.

The Prince Wang mentioned by Mr. Chen refers to Wang Zhen.He said that even if Wang Zhen came back to life, he would feel ashamed in front of Cao Jixiang, which was of course just flattery.When Wang Zhenquan was in power, Zhu Qizhen would respectfully call him "teacher" when he saw him.Not only that, but in history, after Zhu Qizhen was restored, he gave Wang Zhen a monument to write a biography, which shows how much Zhu Qizhen favored Wang Zhen, which is by no means comparable to Cao Jixiang.

After hearing Master Chen's words, that person couldn't help but flatter him a few more times.

Master Chen said again: "As for Dudu Zhang, he has been conferred the title of Marquis of Taiping by the emperor. Although he is not as good as his father and brother, it is still very honorable."

Hearing this, Fang Jianming cursed in his heart: "Hey, Mr. Yu Ge's arrest in the prison is obviously inseparable from these four people. When we meet these four people in the future, we must show them some color."
