The best little eunuch

Chapter 85
Chapter 85
"Master Lin is too famous. I hope Lord Lin will support you a lot in the future." Yang Jing said.Although he, Dali Temple Minister, has a lot of power, he has been weakened repeatedly after Li Henian came to power.Now even the death penalty cases that should belong to the joint trial of the three judicial divisions are all decided by the Ministry of punishment alone.

Dali Temple, which was originally an important yamen of the imperial court, is about to become a forgotten yamen.It was precisely because of this that Yang Jing switched to Lin Feng's side under Ding Quan's lobbying.

"Master Yang, you are being polite." Lin Feng cupped his hands at Yang Jing and said.

After Yang Jing sat down, Ding Quan introduced the last character.He is older than everyone present here.Moreover, he gave people a kind of majesty of a superior person, and this feeling can only be reflected in Liu Rufeng or Li Henian.

"This is..." When Ding Quan was about to introduce, the man stood up and said, "Let me tell you."

"Yes." Ding Quan replied very politely, and then sat down.Seeing that Ding Quan is so polite to this person, there is no doubt that this person has a very noble status, but Lin Feng has never met this person.

"Old man Zhao Di. Because of the great love of the first emperor, he was named the prince and grand teacher. Now that the East Palace has no owner, the old man is free." Zhao Di said to Lin Feng.

It stands to reason that the crown prince and grand teacher are added titles, so he should have other official positions.No one has only one title of prince and grand master.Lin Feng looked at Zhao Di suspiciously, and the meaning was obvious: You should finish your sentence at least once.

"The old man only has the title of prince and grand master." Zhao Di sat down after finishing speaking.On the contrary, Lin Feng didn't know how to answer the conversation.

"Lord Zhao is the elder brother of Zhao Qing, General Zhen Guo." Seeing that Lin Feng was a little confused, Ding Quan hurriedly explained.

When Ding Quan said this, Lin Feng understood that Zhao Di, a hostage in the capital, was probably more important than the title of Prince and Grand Master.After all, Zhao Qing has so many troops in the frontier, and the court is not at ease.

"So it's General Zhao's elder brother. I'm going to salute Mr. Zhao." Lin Feng quickly stood up and said to Zhao Di.Whether public or private, Lin Feng must salute Zhao Di.This time, if Zhao Qing hadn't sent someone back in time, he might not be able to win in Nanjiang, and it could even be said that he would definitely lose.

"Your Majesty Lin, you are being polite. You are now the emperor's own martial artist, and you shouldn't salute me in public or private." Zhao Di said to Lin Feng.

Among the people who came back this time, there was Zhao Di, which really surprised Lin Feng.The most important thing is that neither Shen Xu nor Ding Daquan mentioned Zhao Di in the letter to him.

"Master Zhao also can't understand Li Henian's arbitrariness in the government, especially because he dismisses the army every year on the grounds that the imperial treasury is empty. First of all, the frontier army in the northwest is still a little bit better, and it is in an advantageous state for the time being. The frontier army in this place is seriously short of manpower, if those foreigners come to fight, they may not be able to defend against it!" Ding Quan explained the reason for Zhao Di's arrival very euphemistically.

"Li Henian, that bastard, relied on himself as the prime minister. Now the emperor is young, monopolizing the power, and making the court a mess. He abolishes the army every year and puts the military salary in his own pocket. If it is not for the overall situation, the old man would have Kill him at his house and cut him down," Zhao Di said.It seems that Mr. Zhao is not a character to be provoked.

"Master Lin may not know something. At the beginning, Master Zhao was a powerful general named after the frontier and General Zhao Qing. At the beginning, Master Zhao guarded the north, and General Zhao Qing guarded the northwest. At that time, the people on the border were not like they are now. Every year during the autumn harvest, You have to worry about being robbed." Ding Quan said to Lin Feng.

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhao to be a tiger general, so I'm sorry and disrespectful." Lin Feng said hastily.He really didn't see that Zhao Di didn't look like a general no matter which direction he looked from.More like a scholar.

"Your Excellency Lin may not know something. Mr. Zhao is a well-known Confucian general. Mr. Zhao was in charge of the military as a governor, and he established his reputation in the Northern Army with a battle. That is, from then on, the northern border The people began to live a stable life." Ding Quan seemed to know everything, and told Lin Feng about Ding Quan's past.

After waving his hand, Ding Quan said: "It's okay not to talk about it. It's all old things. I haven't touched a weapon for many years. I've been in the capital for a long time, and I don't even know how to ride a horse."

"Lord Zhao, you are being polite. As long as the imperial court gives you a chance, Master Zhao will still be able to shock Beijing and scare those enemies who have coveted Yan Dynasty." Lin Feng said to Zhao Di.

Although I haven't heard of Zhao Di, but Zhao Di can be as famous as Zhao Qing, which is enough to explain everything.Lin Feng knows Zhao Qing's current reputation in the northwest.No matter from Xin Hong's mouth or those of the Northwest Army, Lin Feng has heard it all.

Shaking his head, Zhao Di said: "I can't do it anymore, I'm old. I don't have the ruthless heart that I used to have. Now An Anxin is staying in the capital for the elderly, which is very good." From Zhao Di's words, Lin Feng can clearly I could hear Zhao Di's helplessness and frustration.

The dinner with Ding Quan and the others didn't end until noon.Everyone chatted happily, and Ding Quan and the others formally joined Lin Feng's camp.At present, the imperial court has basically formed a three-legged situation.

Relatively speaking, Lin Feng's side is still relatively weak.However, Lin Feng's potential support is larger, including the emperor and the queen mother.Even Zhao Qing, who is far away in the frontier, can be his help.These advantages were not available to Liu Rufeng and Li Henian.

After the dinner, Lin Feng originally wanted to go back to his mansion, but he felt that at this time, he could actually get in touch with Li Henian.After all, in terms of Lin Feng's interests, he didn't want Li Henian to fall.He is still too weak now, and needs Li Henian to restrain Liu Rufeng.

The gate of the current Li Henian mansion is closed all year round.Li Henian hardly saw anyone.Unless he was a core figure in his camp, otherwise, it would be too difficult to meet Li Henian.

He knocked on the door of Li Henian's house, and after a while, a servant opened the door, poked his head out, and said, "My master said, I don't see any guests, please go back." After speaking, he was about to close the door.

"Hey... Please inform me, just say that Lin Feng is asking to see you." Lin Feng hurriedly stopped the servant and said.

After glancing at Lin Feng, the servant said: "Why are you like this? My master said that no one will be seen behind closed doors. Go back." After speaking, the servant was about to close the door.

He took out an ingot of silver from his bosom, Lin Feng handed it to the servant, and said: "Please inform me, just say that Lin Feng is asking to see you, your master will see me."

Looking at the ingot of silver in Lin Feng's hand, the servant swallowed and said, "Okay, I'll inform you. Just wait." After speaking, he took the ingot of silver from Lin Feng and closed the door.

"Damn it, you won't invite me in first." Lin Feng said towards the door.Unfortunately, no one heard his words, let alone responded to him.

After waiting at the door for a while, the door of Li Henian's mansion opened again. This time, an older old man came out, followed by the dejected domestic servant.

Glancing at Lin Feng, the old man asked: "Dare you ask to see my master?"

"Yes, why? Master Li didn't see me?" Lin Feng asked.Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case.How could Li Henian not see him?

Returning Lin Feng's ingot of silver to Lin Feng, the old man said: "The servants are not sensible, Mr. Lin, please come in." The old man said, and let Lin Feng in.Then he turned his head and glared at the servant, and said, "If I find out next time, you'll pack up and leave."

"I see, Uncle Li, I don't dare anymore." The servant said dejectedly.I also blame myself for being unlucky, I wanted to take Lin Feng's ingot of silver for nothing, but I was a little carried away, and Uncle Li actually saw it.After asking, I had to say it all.

Following Uncle Li, Lin Feng walked towards the back of Li Henian's house.Li Henian is the prime minister of the right with one person under one man and over ten thousand people, and his house is quite good.There are not only rockery, but also running water drawn from a distance.It's a pity that it's winter now, so we can't see the running water, but we can vaguely see the traces of the flowing water in summer.

Following Uncle Li, Lin Feng passed through several pavilions and walked towards the backyard.Seeing Li Henian's house, and then looking at his own house, there is a damn big difference.It seems that I also have to change to a bigger house, so as to be worthy of my identity.However, I remember that the imperial decree said to give myself a house, and I don't know when I can give it to myself.

Leading Lin Feng through another garden, Uncle Li walked to an inconspicuous room, knocked on the door softly, and said, "Master, Master Lin is here."

"Master Lin? Which Master Lin?" Li Henian's voice came from inside.

"Let's go to Lin Feng, come to see Mr. Li." Lin Feng said loudly outside.

"Invite Lord Lin to come in." Li Henian's voice came from inside, and at the same time, Li Henian's footsteps were heard.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Feng pushed the door open, he saw Li Henian had already walked to the door. He cupped his hands at Lin Feng and said, "I've seen Lord Lin."

"I've seen Mr. Prime Minister." Lin Feng also said with cupped hands.

"Master Lin, please come in." Li Henian said, letting Lin Feng in.

After sitting down, Uncle Li brought tea.Then he backed out respectfully.

"Master Lin is really flattered to come to the old man's mansion." Li Henian looked at Lin Feng and said.He never expected that Lin Feng would come to see him.This is really unexpected.

"It stands to reason that I should come and visit Mr. Li." Lin Feng said.Anyway, when Lin Feng was leading troops to fight, Li Henian was a captain of the Military Affairs Academy, and that was Lin Feng's immediate boss.

"Mr. Lin has a heart. Thank you, Mr. Lin, for remembering me." Li Henian said with some emotion.Now all the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty believe that Li Henian's downfall is inevitable. Only Li Henian knows that he still has the strength to fight.

He didn't see outsiders these days, but he also took a look to see who were loyal to him and who were fools.All in all, Li Henian has gained a lot in the past few days.Although the number of people in his camp has decreased a lot, more people are loyal to him.
