Chapter 399: Beijing's Choice
Following Eunuch Zhang's order, Zhang Ze was quickly taken to Eunuch Zhang's study.
"My son, meet your foster father!"
After Zhang Ze came to Eunuch Zhang's study, he looked nervous!
He has recently been sending people to various places to sell grain, and has made a lot of money.
Could it be that his adoptive father knew about these things?
This……
"Haha, the Second Young Master has been doing very well recently!"
Eunuch Zhang saw Zhang Ze and said with a smile on his face.
But when Zhang Ze saw Eunuch Zhang's smiling face, he was so scared that his whole body trembled!
"Foster father, I...I am where I am today because of you, foster father!"
"I will never forget the kindness of my foster father!"
"Well, that's right, you are still grateful!" Eunuch Zhang nodded, and then asked in a deep voice: "Xue Wenyan from Luzhou County is very close to you?"
"this……!?"
Zhang Ze frowned when he heard this!
Ever since he knew that Zhang Ningshuang stayed with Jiang Chen, Zhang Ze no longer dared to get close to Xue Wenyan!
All of his adopted sons knew how much Eunuch Zhang doted on Zhang Ningshuang!
Eunuch Zhang left Zhang Ningshuang with Jiang Chen.
Then... the deep meaning behind it is self-evident!
How dare they...how dare they do anything wrong!
"Godfather, please understand!"
"When I was in Luzhou County, I had some friendship with Xue Wenyan."
"But that's all for the sake of getting the honeycomb charcoal thing done!"
"After that, after I returned to the capital, I had no contact with Xue Wenyan!"
Zhang Ze said anxiously.
When Xue Wenyan heard this, he stared at Zhang Ze and said, "It's better if you say so!"
"This Xue Wenyan is secretly colluding with the Holy Mother Church. I hope you'd better not get involved!"
"otherwise……"
……
"Don't you dare!"
"I absolutely wouldn't dare to do that!"
When Zhang Ze heard what Eunuch Zhang said, he was so scared that he trembled all over!
He really doesn't dare to collude with the Holy Mother Church!
Because his adoptive father hates these ** forces the most!
"That's good, go down!"
"Yes Yes Yes!"
When Zhang Ze heard what Eunuch Zhang said, he felt as if he had been pardoned and left in a hurry.
He was now very glad that he had ignored Xue Wenyan after returning from Luzhou County!
Otherwise, he probably wouldn't even know how he died!
On the other side, after Zhang Ze left, Eunuch Zhang immediately entered the palace!
After arriving at the imperial study, Eunuch Zhang directly told Jiang Chen about his methods!
When Emperor Dajing heard Eunuch Zhang’s methods, he was extremely shocked!
"Zhang Aiqing!"
"Isn't this a bit too cruel!?"
"Your Majesty, in extraordinary times, extraordinary measures must be taken!"
"Your Majesty, you must not take it lightly!" Eunuch Zhang said with a firm face!
"This this……"
Emperor Dajing was in hesitation!
But after hesitating for a moment, Emperor Dajing gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since Minister Zhang said so!"
"Then let's do this!"
"Zhang Aiqing, I'll leave it to you to choose those officials!"
"It's best... to choose people under Cai Jing and the Eighth Sage King!"
"Your humble servant... obeys your order!" Eunuch Zhang's eyes were filled with joy when he heard the words of His Majesty Dajing!
Your Majesty is not as stupid as he looks!
He also knew who he should deal with!
At the same time, Cai Jing didn't know that Emperor Dajing and Eunuch Zhang had already set their sights on him!
He was looking at the letter sent by Chen Guang at this time.
"The Holy Mother Church is going to rebel?"
"This is a great achievement!"
"Eunuch Zhang's men secretly sold grain from the warehouse. Isn't this courting death?"
"Hahaha! Okay! Great!"
"From now on, Luzhou County will be mine!"
……
Cai Jing laughed out loud, extremely excited!
Afterwards, he hurried into the palace and met the emperor.
The emperor was also shocked when he learned about the Holy Mother Church!
"What!?"
"The Holy Mother Church rebelled in Luzhou County?"
"This Holy Mother Church has really had enough of life!"
"Your Majesty, I suggest that you send people to suppress the bandits immediately!"
"I recommend the garrison troops in the capital..."
Cai Jing saw the opportunity and hurriedly recommended his men!
"No no no!"
Emperor Dajing refused without hesitation!
"Your Majesty, you are..."
Cai Jing was stunned. Emperor Dajing actually rejected him?
"Then send someone to conduct a thorough check on the grain storage!"
"As for the Holy Mother Church, it has not caused any civil unrest yet, so it is not appropriate to send a large army there!" Emperor Dajing said calmly.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean...?" Cai Jing looked at Emperor Dajing in confusion.
"Haha, doesn't Luzhou County have the Golden Dragon Guard?"
"Let the Golden Dragon Guards handle it!"
"I will inform Lord Zhang!"
Emperor Dajing smiled faintly.
"Your Majesty, the Golden Dragon Guard has just been formed. I'm afraid..."
"That's fine! It's precisely because they have just been formed that I want to see their strength!"
Cai Jing wanted to speak more, but unfortunately Emperor Dajing didn't give him any chance!
Emperor Dajing really loves and hates Cai Jing!
Once upon a time, Cai Jing was very good at flattery and had the merit of following the emperor.
He is considered his confidant.
But after he ascended the throne, Cai Jing became arrogant!
He actually named himself Prime Minister! ?
……
He can give this position to Cai Jing!
But if he didn't give it, Cai Jing would crown himself, which would be courting death!
Emperor Dajing will not indulge Cai Jing!
On the other side, in Luzhou County.
The movements of the Holy Mother Church were becoming more and more serious.
Jiang Chen looked at all this and felt that the details were unknowable!
If the Holy Mother Church continues to make trouble like this, the court will definitely take action!
Jiang Chen has even secretly strengthened the manor's defenses!
If those bastards dare to come to his manor and cause trouble, he will definitely not be polite!
But at this moment, Xu Yunchang suddenly found Jiang Chen!
"Sir, there is something important!"
"Ok?"
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised when he heard Xu Yunchang's words.
"What's the big deal? Is the Holy Mother Church planning to take action?"
"Young Master, you have misunderstood. It's not about the Holy Mother Church, it's...about your safety!" Xu Yunchang said respectfully.
"About my safety?"
Jiang Chen was stunned.
"Sir, Xue Da sent a message that they have come into contact with a middle-aged man and woman. According to their understanding, the daughter of the middle-aged man and woman is very beautiful and has been captured by Xue Wenyan!"
"And that man's surname... is Liu!"
"The surname is Liu!?"
When Jiang Chen heard what Xu Yunchang said, he couldn't help but exclaimed!
He finally understood why Xu Yunchang said this matter was related to his safety!
Xu Yunchang is telling him!
There is something wrong with Liu Ruyan!
This Liu Ruyan was sent by Xue Wenyan!
He didn't even notice it!
Thinking about how he had been off guard against Liu Ruyan recently and had even drunk the tea poured by Liu Ruyan several times, Jiang Chen felt a pang of fear in his heart!
If Liu Ruyan adds some spice to his situation, then he... will probably become the most miserable time traveler!
"Sir, do you want to... arrest Liu Ruyan?" Xu Yunchang asked tentatively.
