I am the carpenter king

() Gently patted Wang Chengen's shoulder, Wei Chao said with a smile: "This is not a place to talk, let's go, let's go to Dongchang!" He said and walked forward first.

When Wei Chao and Wang Chengen left, Chen Hong had already returned to the main hall, saluted Emperor Yaoqi, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, they have already left!"

Slowly nodding his head, Emperor Yaoqi sighed softly, and said with emotion: "I hope that the Wei Dynasty will not disappoint me this time, otherwise there is really no sympathy to talk about, I can only give it to you." He's looking for a place to retire!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Eunuch Wei is also capable. I think it's not going well for a while, but he will get results soon! Your Majesty, don't always frown, or there will be forehead lines on this head!" Queen Zhang saw Yao Emperor Qi frowned again, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to stroke Emperor Yaoqi's smooth forehead, saying in a delicate voice.

Smiling and shaking his head, Emperor Yaoqi said in a rather cheerful tone: "Oh, when I get old and frail, will Baozhu despise me?"

"What did your Majesty say? Ah! The concubine is right to say this! Don't wait until the concubine is old and decrepit, and your majesty will despise the concubine!" Empress Zhang pouted her mouth and pulled Emperor Yaoqi's arm to act coquettishly. road.After getting along for a period of time, Empress Zhang already knew how to get along with Emperor Yaoqi, and she knew that Emperor Yaoqi would be happier if she did this.

Gently holding Empress Zhang in his arms, Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said: "How could it be! Baozhu and I have feelings for each other, does Baozhu think that I am greedy for beauty?"

"Of course not, Your Majesty. There are so many women in the palace. Your Majesty is only the four of us now. I didn't think of it before I entered the palace." With a soft smile, Queen Zhang said with a smile.

Holding Empress Zhang's hand, Emperor Yaoqi said loudly: "Let's go, these bullshit memorials will not be approved, I will take you to roast mutton skewers, and Baozhu will accompany me to get drunk tonight!"

Emperor Yaoqi stole half a day's leisure, Wei Chao and Wang Cheng'en also returned to Dongchang, a small wooden table, a few simple side dishes, a jug of wine, the two of them faced each other.

Picking up a plate on the table and putting it in front of Wang Chengen, Wei Chao smiled and said, "Do you still remember this?"

Looking at Wei Chao in disbelief, Wang Chengen smiled and said, "How could you not remember it? You will never forget it for the rest of your life. You had just entered the palace and hadn't had a drink for more than six months. Strength. We got the wine, but there are no appetizers! The two of us got beans in the imperial dining room, and drank while cooking the beans. So many years have passed, and we have eaten so many delicacies from mountains and seas, but when I think about it, the beans were the best It's delicious!"

Poured a glass of wine for Wang Chengen, and filled another glass for himself, Wei Chao laughed at himself, and said sadly: "Many people from back then are gone, I still remember that time, the two of us stole beans, and later we were caught The steward caught it. Each of us received [-] boards, and we didn’t get out of bed for half a month! Do you remember the eunuch who took care of us at that time?”

"Of course I remember, Chen Liang! If it wasn't for him, the two of us would have died a long time ago. By the way, how is Chen Liang?" Looking at Wei Chao, Wang Chengen asked hastily.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Wei Chao drank a thousand of the wine in the wine glass, and said sadly, "He died, he died three years ago! I don't know how he died. It’s been a month! I’ve been investigating this matter since I became the governor of Dongchang. Chen Liang was kind to us, so he died for no reason. He was killed when he was incompetent. Now I want to do it for him. revenge!"

When he saw what was in the cup, he drank it. Wang Chengen shook his head with a wry smile, and said dejectedly: "I don't even need to ask you to know that you must have found nothing. Three years ago, King Fu and Emperor Guangzong in the palace competed for the throne. Concubine Zheng in the harem controls the harem. Chen Liang's death must be inseparable from this matter, and it is too late to investigate now, and many people cannot be found."

"I know this, and I'm afraid I'll get burned if I investigate it, but I just can't help it. Many people say that we have no feelings and we are cruel, but is this really the case? If it weren't for Chen Liang, we would have died long ago. And today? But what about Chen Liang? The bones are not cold! We don’t know where the bones are.” After drinking the wine in the glass again, Wei Chao said angrily.

"For so many years, as long as I think of Chen Liang, I feel bad. Those of us who are born are incomplete. We all hope that when we die, we can put our treasures in the coffin and be complete. I hope that when we reincarnate in the next life, we can do It's upright and complete! But Chen Liang's baby is still there, and it's still hanging there, so how can I be so embarrassing!" Wei Chao patted the table vigorously, and the circles of his eyes were a little red.

Gently patting Wei Chao on the shoulder, Wang Chengen said sadly: "O! You will inevitably have regrets in your life. Perhaps the only regret you have come to this point is Wang Liang. I won't say anything, you can figure it out yourself! But I would like to advise you, be careful. I was in the palace back then, and I knew how deep the water was. It has been so many years, if you want to find out, there will definitely be people blocking you. Remember that you want to give Wang Liang Revenge, first you have to live yourself!"

Nodding vigorously, Wei Chao said solemnly, "It's natural, I know it. Don't worry! I'll be careful!"

"Okay, let's talk about the past here! Tell me about the present, this time you brought me here, although you want to promote me, but what do you want me to do? Come and listen!" Wang Chengen's expression changed, quite Seriously.

Nodding his head slowly, Wei Chao sighed deeply, and said helplessly: "Although I am now the eunuch of the Rites and Bingbi and the admiral of the East Factory, this life is not easy! The emperor trusts me Yes, I have explained a lot of things. But every time I was overwhelmed by Jin Yiwei, and sometimes I even screwed up, which made me unable to hold my head up in front of the emperor! You know a lot about the Liaodong incident this time without telling me It's important, Jinyiwei has done a great job! If Dongchang doesn't come up with something, the emperor will ask me to guard the spirit of the late emperor this time!"

Ninja couldn't help smiling, and Wang Chengen said calmly: "It may not be a good job to keep the late emperor's spirit. You don't need to intrigue, isn't it good to retire there?"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Wei Chaoyu said sarcastically, "If I go to guard the spirit, it will be tantamount to going to death. You are in the palace, you should know how I came to this position, my hands can be said to be stained. blood. As long as I leave this position today, I will be killed tomorrow, I will not do such a thing, I must keep my position."

"So you thought of me and asked me to go to Liaodong to handle this matter well! Not only will I be able to keep your position, but I will also be able to make a contribution to you. By the way, please support me, an old friend. It really kills multiple things in one fell swoop. !" Wang Chengen smiled, also speaking with sarcasm.

Although they were all mocking, the taunts of the two people were obviously different. Wei Chao was mocking himself, while Wang Chengen was mocking Wei Chao.

Slightly taken aback, Wei Chao said in surprise, "The two of us don't have to hide anything. If you have something to say, do you think I'm hiding something from you?"

"Let me ask you, what kind of person is the Jinyiwei sent to Liaodong this time? What kind of person is he?" Wang Chengen looked at Wei Chao and asked calmly.

"That guy's name is Xu Xianchun, he's a ruthless guy, he likes to judge criminals, and he likes to punish people!" Wei Chao told Wang Cheng'en about Xu Xianchun, and then looked at him expectantly!

Nodding his head slowly, Wang Chengen smiled and said: "After being the housekeeper of the palace for so many years, I understand one thing, that is, there is no way to do things, and it is useless even if you are exhausted!"

"What does this mean?" Looking at Wang Chengen with some doubts, Wei Chao hurriedly asked.

"Although this sentence is a bit rough, it does not make sense. This sentence tells us that no matter what you do, you must think carefully about who you are doing it for. You who do things for him, what do you hope you will do?" Do it. Even if what he wants is not the best, you must do it according to his ideas, because you are doing things for him. Put this sentence on us, that is, we are doing things for the emperor, then The first thing to think about is what the emperor wants us to do with this matter!" Wang Chengen smiled lightly, and then said in a deep voice.

Slowly nodding his head, Wei Chaoruo realized something: "There are so many truths, we have always done this, but the Sacred Heart is unpredictable!"

Gently shaking his head, Wang Chengen smiled and said: "We are not roundworms in the emperor's stomach. We can guess it once or twice, but how can we guess all of them. But some people are roundworms in the emperor's stomach! What did that Eunuch Chen tell you?"

After thinking about it, Wei Chao told Wang Chengen exactly what Chen Hong said, and then looked at Wang Chengen expectantly.

"That Eunuch Chen has already made it clear what Xu Xianchun did and what he said later, there is only one thing that Eunuch Chen wants to say, and that is what the emperor wants us to do!" Wang Chengen put the wine on the table After drinking it, the expression on his face was uncertain.

"What does the emperor want us to do?" Wei Chao asked impatiently.

"The emperor wants us to bring the case to the capital, preferably six. The emperor wants to clean it! Not only clean Liaodong, but also the court! We are the fuse, a knife, if we are not sharp enough , the emperor will throw us away. But if we are too sharp, it is likely to break on it." Shaking his head with a wry smile, Wang Chengen said helplessly: "Although you are kind, but this time the matter is really serious. It's a narrow escape, and I don't even know what will happen to me!"

Staring blankly at Wang Chengen, Wei Chao sat there in a daze, motionless!
