This Jinyiwei is obviously super strong but draws too much

"If I say it was not me who did it, senior brother, will you believe it?"

In the East Palace, the Crown Princess suddenly said this for no reason. Qi Yunzhou, who was sitting down, was stunned, and then continued to put the cake in his hand into his mouth as if nothing had happened.

Qi Yunzhou stuffed the exquisite pastries into his mouth in twos and threes like a cow chewing peonies, and said vaguely: "It's whatever junior sister says."

The Crown Princess' eyes flickered, and the smile on her lips deepened. She said softly: "Senior brother, since you don't believe me, I don't think Master Lu will believe me either."

Qi Yunzhou swept away all the pastries in front of him and poured a large cup of tea. After eating and drinking, he said: "Junior sister, with all due respect, except for you, probably no one else would act like this at this time. This is the trick, do you still have this snack?"

Under the dissatisfied look of the female official of the East Palace, the maid served Qi Yunzhou another cake.

"Thank you," Qi Yunzhou continued to enjoy it nonchalantly, and said while eating: "Junior sister, regardless of whether it is true or not, based on my understanding of that person, he probably recognized you. After all, even Jin Yiwei has not found out the result. .”

The Crown Princess pressed her forehead in distress: "It's strange. Could it be that besides us, someone else also took action?"

Qi Yunzhou paused for a moment, then continued eating as if nothing had happened and said, "Junior sister, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to mention 'we' now. I have nothing to do with what you are doing."

"Senior brother, you and I come from the same sect, so why forcefully separate each other." The Crown Princess smiled like a flower, her eyes full of falsehood.

Qi Yunzhou waved his hand and said: "If Junior Sister can make it to the end, I will bow and kowtow three times to help you. But if Junior Sister misses the chess piece, I still want to avoid being implicated by you."

Such shameless words naturally made the maid behind the Crown Princess stunned and furious. She was about to go over and teach her a lesson, but was stopped by her master.

"Senior brother, aren't you afraid that I will give you little shoes to wear when the time comes?" The Crown Princess smiled, her tone as relaxed as if she was joking with a friend.

Qi Yunzhou wiped off the pastry crumbs on his hand, stood up, bowed, and said with a smile: "Junior sister, I have been entrusted with an important task by the teacher, and I have to be responsible for the entire academy. Naturally, I can't gamble as much as you want, so this is difficult. , I can only ask for your forgiveness, junior sister."

"Liar," the Crown Princess sneered sweetly: "You obviously stole the academy secretly, but you still lied about being entrusted by the teacher. Senior brother, you are such a person."

Qi Yunzhou shook his head indifferently and came to the hall to salute and say goodbye: "Thank you for your hospitality today, junior sister. There are some things in the academy. I'm sorry."

"Senior brother, go slowly." The Crown Princess saw off the guests with a smile.

After Qi Yunzhou left, the female official of the East Palace said angrily: "Your Highness, for such a wallflower, what do you value about him?"

The princess said calmly: "No matter how little he is, he is also the teacher's eldest disciple, and he is the successor who inherited the teacher's mantle. Do you know how many scholars in the world come from academies? Do you know how many officials in the imperial court are Confucian disciples? ?"

The female official of the East Palace stopped talking, just biting her lips and looking a little unwilling.

The Crown Princess naturally knew that, just as the female official said, Qi Yunzhou was an out-and-out wallflower, and he would be knocked down at the drop of a hat without any hesitation. There was no sense of moral integrity or moral integrity in such a person. They just follow the wind and forget their righteousness.

Qi Yunzhou was very knowledgeable and had already mastered Confucianism at the age of 20. Even the old Confucian scholars of the time could not defeat him in debating the classics.

But it was such an outstanding person who almost completely replicated the talent of his teacher Mr. Bai Mei, but after reading through Confucianism, he finally grew into such a complete profit animal.But even so, Qi Yunzhou still has unparalleled influence on the entire academy and even Confucian scholars all over the world.

For a Confucian sect, studying and learning are fundamental. As long as one's virtue is not compromised, everything else is just trivial matters. Qi Yunzhou did not deceive his master and destroy his ancestors, and he did not deceive the world and steal his reputation. Therefore, no matter how hard he tried, no one could move his status. .

The Crown Princess swept away the snack crumbs scattered on the table and lowered her eyes slightly: "Since senior brother likes the tea snacks in the East Palace, please send someone to send some over."

"Yes." This time the female officer didn't say anything more, and after answering, she was ordered to do the work.

"Who could it be?" The Crown Princess looked at the empty hall and said to herself.

Qi Yunzhou was right in what he said. Even the Jin Yiwei could not find out the result. It was a matter of course that the blame fell on the East Palace. The Crown Princess could not even find any fault.

After leaving the East Palace, Qi Yunzhou met another person who came without warning before he left the imperial city.

"I would also like to invite Mr. Qi to move to the east factory. The governor invites you." The little eunuch raised his head and said with a smile.

Qi Yunzhou took a moment to react, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Eunuch Xia has invited me, so don't neglect it, hurry up and lead the way."

This made the little eunuch a little at a loss. I heard that this scholar disliked eunuchs the most, especially those with high positions. I didn't expect that Vice President Qi was so kind?

Full of questions, the young eunuch led Qi Yunzhou to the grounds of the East Factory. Xia Zhang paced back and forth in the front hall. When he saw the other party, he quickly came forward with a forced smile. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.

"Mr. Qi is here, please take a seat." Xia Zhang eagerly grabbed Qi Yunzhou's hand and pulled him to his seat, pretending to want to salute him.

"Hey, this can't be done. What is this, Eunuch Xia?" Qi Yunzhou was a little confused. It was said that he had some contact with the East Palace. This was because of the relationship with the Crown Princess. As for the three major factories in the palace, he had no contact at all. Beaten.

"Ugh."

Xia Zhang didn't say anything but sighed beforehand. He said with a bitter look on his face: "I took the liberty of inviting you here today. In fact, I have something to ask for."

Qi Yunzhou looked surprised and said: "I have no official or position, I am just a white man. I wonder what my father-in-law has to do to find me here?"

Xia Zhang didn't make any twists and turns. He said bluntly: "Yesterday, a young master from Lu Shangshu's family fell into the water. Have you heard about this?"

Qi Yunzhou was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Eunuch, are you talking about the commander of the Jinyi Guards causing Mr. Lu's younger brother to fall into the water?"

"That's exactly what happened, alas." Xia Zhang nodded, and then sighed again. He stood up and walked back and forth a few times, as if it was difficult to speak.

Qi Yunzhou couldn't help but asked curiously: "My father-in-law is in charge of the East Factory, and his responsibilities are within the palace walls, but the accident that happened to the young master of the Lu family who fell into the water happened outside the city wall. I wonder how this matter upset my father-in-law?"

Xia Zhang stopped and looked at Qi Yunzhou. After struggling with his expression for a few times, he suddenly said shockingly: "I would be very grateful to you, sir, for coming here to show your respect. In this case, I will not go around in circles. Young Master Lu fell into the water." , has some connection with our Dongchang."
