At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 473 Deaf
There was a rooster crowing outside, and Zhang Yi realized that it was already dawn.

At this time, he was shocked in his heart, he was about to suffer!

I didn't return all night, and the bearers were still waiting outside.

Think about it, the cabinet secretary and the Dali Temple Shaoqing chatted all night, if this got out, nothing would become something, let alone something really happened.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he said, "Is it true that I have no choice now?"

"Brother Zhang, why did you say this?"

"You tell all the truth. If I still don't join, are you going to kill people?"

"Ha ha!"

Yang Dan smiled and said, "It's not that serious. It's just that Brother Zhang needs to be wronged for a few days, so he can study and drink tea in the humble house. When His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, you can continue to be your cabinet assistant."

"You, you... aren't you afraid that I'll tell you the truth afterwards?"

"At that time, there will be a big purge in the court, and all high-ranking and powerful people will be participants. Who do you sue?"

Zhang Yi said solemnly: "Aren't you afraid that His Royal Highness will find out the truth when he grows up and ask you to settle accounts?"

Yang Dan shook his head disapprovingly, and said, "The late emperor passed away at the age of 36, and it has been 19 years so far. Has anyone mentioned this?"

Zhang Yi secretly sighed in his heart, what he said was right, even he, the second assistant to the cabinet, didn't know it at all.

It can be seen that after every coup, those who came to power were the planners and participants. They changed the dynasty through the coup, and took the opportunity to eliminate dissidents and occupy the entire court.

Since everyone is their own person, who will report whom?
Finally, Zhang Yi nodded slowly and said, "I agree."

"it is good!"

Yang Dan smiled all over his face and said, "With Brother Zhang's help, great things can be accomplished!"

Zhang Yi couldn't laugh, but asked, "What do I need to do?"

"Don't worry, brother Zhang will rest here for two days!"

"what?"

Zhang Yi suddenly raised his head and asked, "You don't trust me?"

"Brother Zhang is worrying too much!"

Yang Dan waved his hand and said, "We have already planned this matter, we don't need Brother Zhang to come forward for now, everyone just needs to know that Brother Zhang is on our side, that's enough!"

Zhang Yi was dissatisfied: "After all, I still don't trust me!"

Yang Dan simply didn't hide anything anymore, and said: "For such a big matter, you should be more cautious, Brother Zhang just needs to rest and recuperate!"

After finishing speaking, he clasped his fists in salute and walked out the door.

Zhang Yi chased him out, but was stopped by the two strong men outside the door.

"Oh, right!"

Yang Dan came back to his senses and said to Zhang Yi: "Brother Zhang, don't worry about your family. I will send someone to deliver the letter, saying that Brother Zhang has urgent business and has left Beijing."

Zhang Yi heard the threatening meaning in these words, and said angrily: "I have already promised you, you can't touch my family!"

"Brother Zhang, don't worry, during this time, I will definitely keep your family safe!"

After finishing speaking, he cupped his fists and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Zhang Yi suddenly called out, Yang Dan turned around and asked, "Brother Zhang, what else is there?"

"The bearers who were traveling with me, what did you do to them?"

"Brother Zhang, don't worry, they are my people, so they naturally know what to say when they go back."

Zhang Yi froze suddenly, feeling chilly in his heart.

Even his own bearer is arranged by others, it's too insidious!

After Yang Dan left, the door of the guest room was closed from the outside and locked.

Zhang Yi looked around, and found that the windows were all closed and fastened tightly with wooden strips. It was too dark last night, so he didn't notice it.

There are beds, tables, chairs and benches in the room, as well as a bookcase with several books in it.

It can be seen that this is the cell that Yang Dan specially prepared for himself.

He was in a state of confusion, and there was only one thought in his mind, how could he tell the emperor the news?
At this moment, the door suddenly opened.

I saw an old man with gray beard and hair, holding a wooden tray, which contained a bowl of yellow rice porridge, two steamed cakes, and two dishes of side dishes.

The old man walked slowly, put down the food, turned around and left without saying a word the whole time.

Zhang Yi hadn't slept all night, his stomach had already been so hungry, and when he saw the food, he decided to eat his fill first.

After eating, he felt drowsy. At this time, he had let go of himself, came to the bed, and fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept for this sleep. When I woke up, I saw that the table had been put on the table again. There were fish and meat, and it was very rich.

A gust of wind swept through Zhang Yi and wiped out the food. Not long after, the door opened.

It was the same old man who cleaned up the dishes as soon as he came in, and still didn't say a word.

Zhang Yi said politely, "Thank you!"

However, the old man still ignored it, cleaned up the dishes on the table, wiped them with a rag, and turned away with the tray.

Zhang Yi couldn't help frowning, this old man is very rude!
I greet you, but you ignore me, who do you look down on?
In the evening, the old man came to deliver food again, Zhang Yi was displeased, so he pretended to inadvertently knocked a bowl of yellow rice porridge to the ground.

To his surprise, the porridge bowl was smashed to pieces, but the old man didn't move at all.

It stands to reason that when a person hears a sudden abnormal sound, his body will react involuntarily, such as being smart and shouting, but this old man did not respond at all.

Could it be that he is deaf...

Zhang Yi walked behind the old man, and suddenly clapped his hands next to his ear.

There was a crisp snap, but there was no response.

At this time, the old man just turned around, looked at Zhang Yi, said something uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu*

Zhang Yi understood. It turned out that the old man was really deaf, and he was also dumb.

This is not surprising, Yang Dan was doing treason, so he couldn't trust himself, so he specially sent an old servant who was deaf and dumb to deliver food.

"Feel sorry!"

Zhang Yi cupped his fists in embarrassment, then leaned over to pick up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground.

Suddenly, he was startled!
Just as he was bending down, suddenly, the old man turned his palms towards him...

When he came back to his senses, the old man had already picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and left.

The guard outside the door looked at Zhang Yi in the room, and then closed the door.

Zhang Yi was surprised at this moment, holding a steamed cake in his hand, he broke it hard, and a note appeared inside.

Just now the old man wrote a word in the palm of his hand——

cake!
Zhang Yi didn't know what happened at all. Isn't this old man a servant of Yang Dan's family? Why did he secretly pass the news to himself?
Unfold the note, there are two small words on it:

soy sauce!

Zhang Yi looked at the table, sure enough, there was a small dish of soy sauce.

This thing is a luxury, only in the palace, or wealthy people can afford it.

Moreover, this thing can replace ink!

Yang Dan only kept a few books in the house, but no pen and ink, just to prevent him from conveying any information to the outside world.

Zhang Yi thought hard, what was the purpose of this deaf-mute old servant trying so hard to convey information to him?

Could it be that Yang Dan is testing himself?
