King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 245 Small Risk High Return
"Eunuch Deng, I will send you here!"

Outside the gate of the East Factory, Wang Qing brought a group of important officials of the East Factory to send Deng An and the others here.

Deng An originally thought that it was enough to lead the people away by himself, but who would have thought that Wang Qing would mobilize so many people and make such a big battle.

Deng An was very self-aware, knowing that Dongchang was looking at Zhu Jinghong's face, but in his opinion this was too much.

How could he know that Wang Qing's big battle was completely for outsiders to see.

This can also be true. Zhu Jinghong himself intervened in this case, and if the case does not progress in the future, it will be used as a reason.

"Farewell!"

After saying this, Deng An waved his hands behind him, and the little eunuchs who came with him supported Qin Zhong to go out, and Qin Keqing followed behind.

Seeing Deng An walking away, Wang Qing just suppressed his smile, but he was still happy in his heart.

He didn't want to investigate this case at all, and he also knew that the emperor might not want to know the truth. In fact, all parties can accept it as it is now.

"Shengshou Festival is coming soon, since Bailian turned against the bandits, we still need to investigate carefully!"

As the eunuch in charge, Wang Qing had the highest status in the East Factory at this time, and everyone around him bowed his head and obeyed his orders.

"Before, the Lord ordered us to screen the forbidden area. Although we haven't found any traces of rebels yet, we still shouldn't take it lightly!"

"In the next three days, you can let go of other things and focus on this matter!"

There are two eunuchs in charge of the East Factory, and one of them will be on duty every five days. Wang Qing will be in charge of the East Factory for the next three days, which makes him take it seriously.

"Do you understand everything?"

"Slaves understand!" Everyone replied.

Let's say that Deng An took people away, but brought them into the Donghua Gate, where Zhu Jinghong had already greeted them in advance, and Qin Zhong and his brother were able to enter the palace gate.

Bringing the two of them into Chengming Courtyard, Deng An put them in the wing room and said with a smile: "Miss Qin, Lord Thirteen may have orders, you two should wait here for a while!"

Seeing Keqing's worry, Deng An went on to say, "I'll ask the imperial doctor to come and have a look, and there won't be any serious problems!"

As long as they are willing to give money, those people from Tai Hospital will be willing to come, not to mention that Deng An can borrow Zhu Jinghong's face.

"Thank you, father-in-law!" Ke Qing saluted very solemnly.

"You don't need to thank me, if you want to thank you, you should thank Lord Thirteen. For your safety... Lord Thirteen has worked hard!"

So Deng An is a good slave, this guy has already guessed Zhu Jinghong's thoughts, so he praised his master vigorously.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't put on airs of someone in the palace, just because he knew that the person in front of him was likely to become his master in the future.

"Then I'll go to Tai Hospital to ask for a doctor!"

When Keqing was properly placed, Zhu Jinghong was already yawning in the Qianqing Palace on the other side.

It's just that in the warm cabinet at this moment, the emperor is receiving cabinet ministers and six ministers, specifically discussing the celebration of the Shengshou Festival three days later.

All kinds of preparations must be reported in every detail, and in the end, everything must be ensured.

Of course, this is also the last meeting before the festival.

If I had known I wouldn't have come so early, I wasted my time here.

"Master Thirteen, the jerky you want is here!"

The little eunuch appeared in front of Zhu Jinghong carrying a food box, which was a special snack he wanted.

In this day and age, there is no lack of entertainment without a mobile phone, and right now he can only pass the time with snacks.

The jerky is prepared in secret. It is said that there are dozens of processes. Zhu Jinghong is not clear about the details. He just thinks it tastes good so he likes to eat it.

"Come on, you have something to eat too!"

"Slave is humble, how dare you..."

Before the little eunuch finished speaking, Zhu Jinghong grabbed a handful of jerky and stuffed it into his arms.

"I'll take it for you, what a lot of nonsense!"

The act of buying people's hearts is so subtle and silent, at least the little eunuch at this moment must be grateful for Zhu Jinghong's "love".

Just chewing the jerky like this, Zhu Jinghong chatted with the little eunuch, and the time passed much faster.

About half an hour later, several important ministers dispersed, and only then did the eunuchs come to deliver Zhu Jinghong an audience.

In the Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, Zhu Jinghong kowtowed in front of the emperor, while Zhu Xianming was drinking tea from a cup.

"It's been agreed just now that three days later, there will be a grand pilgrimage on the Shengshou Festival. After the pilgrimage is over, the soldiers you trained will be reviewed at the Shanglinyuan school grounds!"

It was equivalent to saying that the time for the military parade had been set, and he was called here to inform him of it.

"Yes!"

The army has trained very well, and it is much more serious than before when Zhu Xianming went to see it. Now it only needs to perform normally, so Zhu Jinghong was not disturbed when he heard the news.

"Go down and get ready!"

"Father, there is something... my son wants to report it!"

Putting down the teacup, Zhu Xianming calmly said, "Speak!"

If it was before, Zhu Xianming would definitely feel that the kid in front of him was a moth, and he would definitely scold and scold him first.

His indifferent attitude today shows that the emperor's impression of Zhu Jinghong has changed, which is quite different from the past.

"Today Li Wenzhao came to find his son and told him about the White Lotus Sect!"

To bluntly communicate with foreign ministers, the other party is still such a sensitive identity as Jin Yiwei, so Zhu Jinghong can do it.

In Zhu Xianming's eyes, this just shows that the youngest son is upright, unlike the sixth son who made friends with Zhang Gan and pretended to cover it up.

"Is there any progress?"

"Great progress!"

"tell me the story!"

When the emperor said this, Zhu Jinghong didn't hide it, so he told the situation Li Wenzhao had found out, as well as this guy's bold idea.

After listening, Zhu Xianming also fell into deep thought.

"This Li Wenzhao...is quite courageous!"

The emperor's voice was indifferent, which made Zhu Jinghong not sure whether he likes or dislikes, so he said very respectfully: "Father, his method...is indeed a gamble!"

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Zhu Xianming stared at Zhu Jinghong, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think?"

"This... son, I'm afraid it's not good!"

Zhu Xianming sneered, and then said: "If you can't say it, just slap your mouth and say it quickly!"

He was still joking at this time, Zhu Jinghong knew that the old man was in a good mood, and after a few words of slander, he replied: "Father... my son thinks, I can take a gamble!"

"Why?"

"To put it bluntly, the risk is small and the return is high, a fool would not choose it!"

If someone else answered, they would definitely quote the scriptures and make the final point just like writing an essay.

Although Zhu Jinghong's statement is simple, he directly pointed out the key reason, which is extremely convincing.

To be an emperor, you must be able to accurately grasp the essence of things, and seeing the sun through the clouds is an important quality.

There is no doubt that Zhu Jinghong's "rough remarks" at this moment have refreshed the emperor's view of him.

"Low risk, high return!" Repeating these words, Zhu Xianming continued: "You analyze and analyze!"

"My son believes that the capital is heavily guarded and all the rebels are under surveillance. If there is careful cooperation from various government offices, they can all be arrested with one order. This is called the risk is extremely small!"

"Postponing the arrest for two days will definitely dig out more accomplices. Even if you can't dig out all the rebels, you can still severely damage them... My son thinks the benefits are great!"

"Ok!"

He just responded, but Zhu Xianming didn't make a clear statement, which once again made Zhu Jinghong confused. Does the old man agree or disagree?
The king's heart is unpredictable... Zhu Jinghong couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The next moment, Zhu Xianming looked at the eunuch beside him, and ordered with a cold expression: "Tell Qiu Liang, the soldier and horse of the five cities, to see him!"
