Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 496
Chu Zhaoren moved his finger little by little on the account page, and if he had any doubts, he just said the number casually, and the manager and account room next to him would report the ins and outs.

As an eunuch guarding Nanjing, training soldiers and owning a general school, the business of earning money in this life is doing well. Huangzhuanghuangdian has always been the main income of the big family, so there can be no sloppy, not to mention the trend of Tianjin Weiliu water price in the past two years. Sending money in the palace, the Yumajian's own side can't do it too ugly, it is necessary to ask everyone to work harder and give more to the palace.

Although everyone in the Yumajian complained in private, they still put up 120 points of energy to make no mistake. Chu Zhaoren has been dizzy for the past few days, but he can only stand next to him like this.

The little eunuch outside came in to send a letter, saying that "the Ministry of War came to ask about the training of the Imperial Army." The eunuch Chu didn't realize it for a while, he raised his head in a daze, but he knew.

I don't want to understand until I understand it, I just feel my head humming, my eyes go black, and I almost turn over. Fortunately, I put my hand on the table and it is considered stable.

"Come here!! Come here!! Drag this goddamned thief down, whip eight hundred whips! hit eight hundred sticks!!"

This is also because the "800 taels" was calculated just now, and the amount was said in a short time. The little eunuch knelt on the ground with a plop, begging for mercy, but at the same time he was still confused, thinking that he could only send a letter. There is such a great sin.

Chu Zhaoren's eyes were red. Last year, he brought up the matter of the imperial horse prison army going out of Beijing for drills. He originally wanted to cause some trouble for Wang Tong's Huwei camp, but he didn't expect to get good reviews for himself by playing the wrong way first, saying that He worked faithfully, trained the soldiers and horses of the imperial army, and demonstrated the majesty of the heavenly family.

This is a good thing that fell from the sky. I didn't expect that it would be a big disaster. God knows why there are thousands of Tartar cavalry so close to the Xuan Mansion. God bless, the Huwei Camp actually killed hundreds of Tartars , came back safe and sound.

But that incident made Chu Zhaoren break out in a cold sweat, and he went to the Palace of Compassion and Peace to kowtow and his head was bleeding. At any rate, everyone could understand it, and they didn't misunderstand him, so they passed the test.

The forbidden army went to the border town to perform martial arts training. At that time, everyone praised it and said that it would become a regulation in the future. However, after Wang Tong was in danger, Chu Zhaoren had already lost half his life in fright, so how could he dare to do more? If there is any trouble to go to the border town for rehearsal, it is enough to set the rules and pass it vaguely. If another incident really happens outside, then even if it is not done by oneself, it will be misunderstood by the superiors.

He wanted to be vague, but someone came to mention it, how could he not be mad, the eunuch Chu got angry here, but the eunuch in charge next to him understood, and hurriedly said in a low voice:
"Eunuch Chu, this person belongs to Eunuch Zhang, the supervisor of ceremonies."

Eunuchs have their own sects, and the eunuch Zhang Cheng, the eunuch of Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, can't be killed. Besides, they all know that what they said was angry. Chu Zhaoren also consciously lost his composure, coughed dryly, and said:
"The matter of the forbidden army is under the control of the Lord Long Live and the Empress Dowager. If the Ministry of War intervenes randomly, our family is free to care about it."

The little eunuch was still in shock, kowtowed on the ground, and reported:
"Eunuch Chu, the Ministry of War said that the Forbidden Army will go to various border towns to perform martial arts drills, provide food and grass, and station along the way. The Ministry of War will arrange in advance..."

Before he finished speaking, Chu Zhaoren interrupted him impatiently, and reprimanded him:

"Quack, our family has been doing military affairs for so many years, so why don't we know about these things? The Yuma Supervisor has its own arrangements for such things, and the Ministry of War will help when the time comes, so why ask so many questions."

The little eunuch below didn't dare to say more, and kowtowed again. At this moment, a middle-aged eunuch came in from outside, and said with lowered hands:

"Eunuch Zhang asks Eunuch Chu to go to the office to discuss something."

This middle-aged eunuch was wearing a black robe, but he was a subordinate of the eunuch Zhang Jing, who was in charge of the imperial horse supervisor. Chu Zhaoren didn't dare to neglect, so he stood up quickly, thought for a while while bypassing the book case, and said to his entourage:

"Twelve taels of silver for this messenger."

It was true that he had lost his composure just now, so he had to make up for it.

************
"Last year, our family did not slap themselves in the face for this drill. It was really a waste of time and money, and it was not good. The supervisors and battalion officers of the following battalions were very unwilling. Eunuch Zhang, Lin Father-in-law, forget it!"

In the official office of the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor, the admiral Chu Zhaoren said bluntly that the inner court is also an officialdom, and people in their position always leave three points when they speak.

However, Chu Zhaoren ignored this particularity and directly expressed his meaning. He didn't expect that what he was called here was also about the drill of the Imperial Army. He was very shocked and angry, thinking that everyone was working together to deal with him.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Jing frowned, and glanced at Lin Shulu, the supervising eunuch next to him. When he met his eyes, Lin Shulu understood, coughed and said:

"Eunuch Chu's thoughts, our family can guess how much, but we are taboo about Wang Tong's accident outside the Great Wall?"

Since he is direct, then this side is also straightforward, and Zhang Jing naturally understands it very well. Chu Zhaoren nodded with a sullen face, and Lin Shulu smiled and said:
"I did it last year, but if I don't do it this year, if someone thinks about it, wouldn't it seem that you, Eunuch Chu, wanted to do something last year, and even if it was nothing, it became something?"

Chu Zhaoren's face was even more ugly when he said this, but he was indeed guilty. If he really went last year and didn't go this year, and was told that he was deliberately targeting Wang Tong, even if the empress dowager didn't blame him, there would definitely be a pimple in his heart. He was speechless, but Zhang Jing, the palm print eunuch, said:
"It's a good thing to go out to Beijing for training. The following battalions have been cleaned up and improved a lot. The supervisors and battalion officers have also learned about the training this year. They have a good look, and we also have credit. Naturally, we must continue to do this, otherwise, In this peaceful time, what opportunities are there for the Yuma Supervisor to boast about?"

Chu Zhaoren looked around, both of them meant to go out of Beijing for practice, and it was useless for him to have any objections, so he gritted his teeth and expressed his worries:
"It's okay to talk about other camp leaders. If Wang Tong of Huwei Camp meets Tartar again, then our family will really be speechless..."

Halfway through the conversation, both Zhang Jing and Lin Shulu couldn't help but laugh, and Zhang Jing even shook his head and said:
"It's ridiculous, Tartars are so easy to come across, besides, as soldiers and horses of Ming Dynasty, isn't raising them just to beat Tartars?"

***********
In addition to the on-duty room, there is also a side hall for the eunuchs to eat and rest in the courtyard of the Supervisor of Rites. Now a room has been vacated, and the eunuchs serving outside are all standing at a distance. Stepping lightly and speaking in a low voice, everyone knew that the eunuch Feng Bao, the eunuch who was in charge of ceremonies, Zhang Cheng, the eunuch who held the pen, and the eunuch Zhang Jing, who was the eunuch who was in charge of the horse, were discussing matters there. These three were the three with the highest status in the inner court. Personally, there is no major event in October, and I don't know what to discuss.

"The preparations for the rehearsal at the Yumajian will start tomorrow, and the battalion leaders will go to Xuanfu and Ji Town to rehearse according to the regulations at the beginning of the year."

Zhang Jing said, seeing Feng Bao nodding, he couldn't help but said:
"The Ministry of War's errand is too small. Go to fight as soon as you go out to fight. Why bother to hide it from everyone. Those who know it are good. Those who don't know it will think that there are so many meticulous work in the Imperial Horse Prison!"

"Don't think too much, inside and outside the palace is a sieve, our family ordered the servants to go out and buy a book, and everyone knew about it in the blink of an eye. I'm afraid this kind of thing will spread to everyone in the world, Tartar It’s hard not to know over there.”

After Feng Bao said something, Zhang Jing didn't speak. Feng Bao paused but said to Zhang Cheng on the side:

"The Forbidden Army rarely left the capital. It's true that the Huwei Camp went farther last time and fought a battle with the Tartars outside. That's why they are going to be used this time. Long Live God wants you to talk about it. Long Live Lord, don’t think too much, it’s their duty for Daming’s troops to fight for Daming, they always keep them in peace, our family sees that Wang Tong is not a cowardly person who seeks safety, but looks like he is doing things for the country of."

Zhang Cheng nodded quickly and said:

"What Eunuch Feng said is true."

Emperor Wanli didn't dare to sit crookedly when he saw Feng Bao, and he was quite awed in his heart. Feng Bao could say these words, but he didn't dare to answer them. Feng Bao looked at Zhang Cheng and agreed, and it was also an arrangement to settle the matter, in his heart Somewhat relaxed, he changed the subject with a smile and said:
"Concubine Zheng Shu's promotion to imperial concubine has already been agreed by the Empress Dowager. The Imperial Horse Supervisor will do the counting. After all, it is a happy event, and money will be allocated for it."

"What Eunuch Feng ordered was that the gold flowers and silver were only sent to the palace a few days before the increase, so it is enough to just take out this bill."

"Zheng Shubin is virtuous, and treats us old fellows kindly...

************
The imperial horse inspector supervises the private house of the eunuch Lin Shulu, and everyone who waits on him knows that eunuch Lin likes to be quiet, so the people around him don't bother him when they have nothing to do.

Because no one was approaching, no one could hear the coughing sound from the room. The room was still dark, Lin Shulu covered his mouth with a handkerchief, his body trembled violently, and the coughing sound could not be stopped.

Shuangxi standing beside her was full of anxiety, and said in a crying voice:

"Master, let the imperial doctor come and have a look, this disease cannot be overcome by oneself."

Lin Shulu managed to stop his cough, touched a pill, pinched the wax seal and ate it. After calming down for a long time, he said weakly:

"The imperial doctor saw that there was no need to do this errand. The root cause of the disease that fell down in the past was caused by a big temper at the beginning of the year... You don't have to worry about this, go out of the palace once, and let people go to Shanxi again..."

"Master, what happened at the beginning of the year?"

"His Yu family doesn't want to avenge their second son!? The Tartars lost more than 5000 Dingkou, don't they want to take revenge!? This time we will do nothing but spread the news."
