Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 42
What's more rare is that the middle-aged eunuch Zou Yi who came here wanted to tell him that the other party's demeanor was extraordinary, which was quite different from the eunuchs of all levels who came to eat in the store these days. People at the lower level can treat themselves with gentleness and courtesy, and they are extremely polite, and they have to tell themselves the truth.

Even a fool can understand the other party's intention to make friends and make money.

Wang Tong quickly stood up from the chair, bowed his fists and said:

"It's best if Eunuch Zou is willing to give me advice. Wang Tong is less than 14 years old. It would be a shame to call him such a grown-up as Eunuch Zou. If Eunuch Zou doesn't dislike him, he will be called Wang Tong."

Zou Yi's heart was really shaken by Wang Tong's reaction. It's not difficult to understand his intention of making friends with him, but it's not difficult for a child under 14 years old to comprehend so quickly and respond appropriately. Adults may not be so appropriate.

"It's too common to call you by your first name. Let's get close. How about calling me Big Brother instead of calling you Little Brother?"

"Since the elder brother is like this, the younger brother will not be polite."

The two sides looked at each other and smiled. Their relationship, at least on the surface, became much closer. Zou Yi turned around and sat down, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and began to talk:
"That day, little brother, you talked about the hard work of your parents and about filial piety. Others were telling the emperor the truth. No one said it so truthfully. The emperor listened to it."

It turned out that the little emperor Wanli was vomiting with his biological mother, the empress dowager, the benevolent empress dowager. As the emperor Wanli grew up, he had his own ideas, and it was inevitable that he would argue with others.

However, his status is supreme, and the affairs of the Tian family are the affairs of the world, and no one dares to persuade him. The Queen Mother has the support of Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, and her status is equally high. In a sense, she can even abolish the emperor and be obedient since childhood Emperor Wanli was suddenly stubborn and angry, and Empress Dowager Li was also sad.

The two of them froze like this, and the people around them were secretly anxious, but even Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, the first-class figures in the inner and outer courts, were not suitable to persuade and intervene in such matters, so let this matter go on. However, the instability of the Ming dynasty is also a major event.

It's not a problem for the little emperor to be bored all day long. Some people suggested that Zhang Cheng took the emperor out of the palace to relax. In the Ming Dynasty, there were many examples of the emperor going out of the palace for a stroll, and no one worried about it.

It happened that Zhang Cheng heard from the little eunuch below that the braised pork in the delicious restaurant was delicious, but Wanli was taught by the Queen Mother and Zhang Juzheng to practice frugality, and the little emperor complained endlessly.

As a result, there were those stories in the Delicious Restaurant, Wang Tong's honest words made the little emperor understand something, he was relieved, went back to the palace and took the initiative to greet the queen mother, and chatted a few gossips with him.

After all, the biological mother and child are connected by flesh and blood, and the always stubborn little emperor Wanli suddenly made such a decent and filial behavior, which really moved her a lot, and she had to say to the court ladies and eunuchs "

...the child really grows up...

For a person of such a status, it's fine if he doesn't know how to feel emotionally. It is necessary to send someone to inquire about the reason for this change. Zhang Cheng, who accompanied the emperor, naturally would not hide anything.

After learning the reason, the queen mother also lamented that those well-educated Confucians and cabinet bosses who went to the palace every day to explain sages and sages to the emperor were not as effective as a child of about the same age.

Moreover, the late Jiajing Dynasty and the Longqing Dynasty did not add eunuchs into the palace. When Wanli ascended the throne, there were no eunuchs in the palace under the age of 40, and there were problems with the labor operation in the palace. Later, in the second year of Wanli, eunuchs were added on a large scale Entering the palace, this slowed down.

But this also brought about a problem. The eunuchs who served the emperor were all reassuringly old, and their influence on the emperor was similar to that of the big bosses in the court.

Accompanied by such a person of similar age, ability, and good moral character, it is of great benefit to the emperor's character development and growth.

It is too easy to investigate a person in the system in the capital, and this person is what the queen mother wants to investigate. Dongchang and Jinyiwei have mobilized again and again to investigate the three generations of Wang Tong's ancestors clearly. The more information found, the more the Empress Dowager will have a better impression of Wang Tong.

The Empress Dowager appreciates it, and this person wants to grow up with the emperor. Anyone with a little bit of political savvy knows what this means. Get to know the details of this person.

That's why there was a scene of noisy and noisy guests in those few days, but in the Wanli Dynasty, the mentality of the two big bosses inside and outside was different from the similar situation in the past.

Feng Bao grew up watching Emperor Wanli grow up. Now that Emperor Wanli sees Feng Bao coming, he has to straighten up his posture and have a serious attitude, not daring to neglect in the slightest. Zhang Juzheng is the emperor's teacher. Mistakes are often punished by Zhang Juzheng in the name of the ancestor and the queen mother.

The attitude of these two people towards Wanli, and the respect of the courtiers towards the emperor, but the elders may have a stronger attitude towards the younger generation. They don't care too much about Wang Tong, but the purpose of watching is to see if Wang Tong is suitable. It is suitable to be this companion, whether the little emperor can get any benefits from it is the most important thing.

In the same way, if the little emperor loses interest, then Wang Tong doesn't matter to them, he is just a captain of Jin Yiwei, a soldier of the army.

Besides, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child has an indeterminate temper, likes and dislikes, and changes quickly, and no one can care about what is wrong.When the time comes to promote that kid to a hundred households, it will be regarded as the utmost kindness. This is a great luck that ordinary people can't come across in eight lifetimes.

Zou Yi spoke slowly but clearly, complicated but coherent, Wang Tong had already guessed many things that were not clearly stated, and cold sweat oozed from his inexplicable backside.

Today, the emperor's behavior of "private visits in micro-services" was exposed, and he felt bored. It was really possible to let this great luck fly away from his hands.

Zou Yi said he was thirsty, Wang Tong quickly poured a glass of water for him, and when he was still holding the pot in his hand, he thought of one thing, since the bosses thought it didn't matter, what was the reason for Zhang Cheng's intention? ?

Wang Tong hesitated for a while, and decided to take this opportunity to ask. It is rare that this Zou Yi is willing to say that since he is at a high place, the more he can see clearly, the less chance of falling to his death.

He put down the kettle, rubbed his hands, and asked hesitantly:
"Brother Zou, thank you for being so clear. God's will is unpredictable, and His Majesty's courtiers can't make wild guesses, but..."

Wang Tong hesitated to speak, and pointed to the "Shangshan Supervisory Food Stall" on the table with his finger. Zou Yi put down his tea cup, his face was full of admiration, he clapped his hands lightly, and said with a smile:

"Brother Wang's eyesight, he immediately got the point!!"
